Welcome to the Nazca Services Limited's Platform security page. This page explains how we manage user and business account security and data security.
We strive to keep the Services you depend on up and running; in order to achieve this aim, we will maintain appropriate administrative, physical, and technical safeguards for protection of the security, confidentiality and integrity of Customer Data. While we've taken steps to help protect your data, no method of electronic storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security
We will notify you if there appears to be unauthorised access to your account and we may also restrict access to certain parts of our services until you verify that access was by an authorised user.
Our goal is to be transparent about our business and managing user and data security by describing our technology and services in simple terms so that you can understand our practices. If you have any questions about this information, please contact us at [email protected]
User Session Timeout
Users sometimes leave their computers unattended or they don't log off. You can protect your applications against unauthorized access by automatically closing sessions when there is no session activity for a period of time. The default inactivity timeout is one hour following which a user will be logged out. Upon logout all cookies are removed preventing a session continuing and requiring the user to re-authenticate themselves.
A session that remains active up to twenty-four hours will require the user to re-authenticate themselves.
You can set your browser to refuse all or some browser cookies, or to alert you when websites set or access cookies. If you disable or refuse cookies, please note that some parts of the Platform may become inaccessible or not function properly. For more information about the cookies we use, please see our Cookie Policy available on https://www.nazca-services.com/legal-stuff/
Password Policies
Strong password security is an important first step in protecting your Sales Pipeline Development Platform account and Business Account.
Nazca Services recommends these best practices:
Password expiration – Nazca Services recommends no more than 90 days to force users to reset their passwords
Password length – Nazca Services suggestions minimum password length of 8-10 characters
Password complexity – The Platform will guide you on the strength of our password. Users should include a of alpha, numeric, and special characters in their Platform password. A weak password will not be accepted by the Platform.
In addition, users must never share passwords with anyone, either online or in person -- this includes their Platform password.
To protect users from unauthorised user access to their account, we have enabled two-factor authentication, or 2FA, which is a subset of multi-factor authentication. MFA is one of the simplest and most effective ways to enhance the security of your Sales Pipeline Development Platform user and business accounts.
When a business administrator registers themselves to use the Platform, they are required to set their password and authenticated using MFA. All users an Administrator invites to a business account on the Platform are also required to set their password and authenticate via MFA.
Educate Users About Phishing
Nazca Services highly recommends phishing education for all Platform users. Most cyber-attacks use malware (malicious software) to infect a computer with malicious code designed to steal passwords, data, or disrupt an entire computer/network. Fortunately, you don't need to be a security expert to help stop malware.
Some simple recommendations you can make to your Sales Pipeline Development Platform users:
Teach users to not be fooled by phishing, and to not click links or open attachments in suspicious emails. One of the most effective cyber-attack techniques is tricking someone to click a link or open an attachment that installs malware. These are called phishing e-mails because they lure you into opening an email. Phishing email can say something intriguing, useful, or appear to be a legitimate message from a real company (package delivery, payroll, Government context such as IRS or HMRC, social networking, etc.).
Instruct users to never open emails from unknown sources. Hackers want people to click on their link so that they can infect the user's computer. Similarly, teach users that emails received from an unknown source should be evaluated based on the source and whether it makes sense. If not, it may be malicious. The sender's address should always be verified and any links to URLs can be hovered over to validate them. For example, if the link says it's from Nazca Services, then hovering over the link should show a URL ending in ".nazca-services.com".
Avoid loss of data
Nazca maintains multiple geographically separated data replicas and hosting environments to minimise the risk of data loss or outages.

En bar mitzva (eller "bat mitzva" for piger) er en jødisk ceremoni.

Den afholdes for en jødisk dreng, når han er fyldt 13 år, mens en jødisk pige blot skal være 12 år. Ceremonien betyder, at de nu "kan træde ind i de voksnes rækker". Indenfor kristendommen finder man den tilsvarende konfirmation.

Modsat f.eks. kristen konfirmation vælger en jødisk dreng ikke, om han vil blive bar mitzva eller ej. "Bar mitzva" betyder egentlig "søn af forpligtelser" (egen oversættelse), og det er således et spørgsmål om en række forpligtelser/love/religiøse bud, som træder i kraft for drengens vedkommende, idet han fylder 13 år. Blandt disse kan nævnes:
 At faste på jødiske helligdage
 At bede de tre daglige bønner
 At tage sig af sociale forpligtelser (fx sygebesøg, ældreomsorg osv.)

Der er dog også en række "privilegier", der først gælder, når den jødiske dreng bliver 13 år (og dermed træder ind i "de voksnes rækker"); drengen kan f.eks. tælle med blandt de 10 mand, der er påkrævet, før en jødisk gudstjeneste kan finde sted.

A dissident in China uses Web-based e-mail to contact a journalist in Canada. An intelligence agency wants to surveil a foreign website. Like every operation on the Internet, these activities leave tracks. Online anonymity measures provide a way around this problem; one of the most advanced is Tor, or the Onion Router.
Computer scientist Roger Dingledine developed Tor under a contract with the U.S. Naval Research Lab; today, the software is distributed by the Tor Project, under the fiscal sponsorship of the Electronic Frontier Foundation.
To disguise Internet traffic's origins, Tor plots a route through any three of more than 700 volunteer-run Onion routers around the world. It sets up a two-way link between the sender's computer and the final router in the chain; data passed between them is encrypted in three layers, and each router in the chain peels off one layer along the way. Each data packet "remembers" only the address of the last router it visited. That way, even if the data is intercepted before the final router hands it off to the recipient, it's difficult to trace back to the sender.

Dr. Jamison R. Spencer gives an in depth look into how bruxism (grinding teeth while sleeping) is a deeper issue than just dealing with dental damage. Dr. Spencer shows how for many, the underlying issue is sleep apnea- a complete cessation of breathing for at least 10 seconds while sleeping. It can occur multiple times an hour, making it difficult to wake up feeling rested and ready for the day.
While many medical professionals will treat the symptoms rather than the problem, Dr. Spencer teaches you how to look deeper for the cause of bruxism. This will give you a better idea on how to treat it, and hopefully get rid of the problem for good. Not everyone takes the time to dig deeper, which can set you apart from other dentists.

Home/News/Candle lights shine in memory of Galletta
Candle lights shine in memory of Galletta
By Olivia Tattory
Senior Thomas Galletta, Tommy to friends and family and brother of the former Rider chapter of the Phi Kappa Tau (PKT) fraternity, was remembered Wednesday night, his birthday, in a candlelight vigil at Gill Chapel.
Hundreds of students, friends, family and members of the Rider community gathered at 10 p.m. in the chapel and continued the memorial service in front of Lake House residence hall, the former PKT fraternity house.
Tommy Galletta's brother, Danny, said his brother was someone who could bring a smile to anyone's face — a caring and outgoing person who appreciated the little things in life.
"I don't know one person who met him that had anything bad to say about him," said Danny Galletta. "He was such a good person and would do anything for the people he loved."
An acoustic guitar played while the procession of white candles, held by those who attended, made its way across campus. Galletta's fraternity brothers and immediate family formed a tight circle, while others in mourning were loosely arranged around them.
Taran Gallagher, a junior elementary education major, agreed with Danny Galletta. She said when Galletta was alive he would always be there to look out for her.
"I have so much respect for him," said Gallagher. "I chose him as my big brother because I don't have an older sibling and I knew that he would be a good role model."
Gallagher, a sister in the Delta Phi Epsilon (DPE) sorority, said her sisters chose Galletta in the spring to become part of the family. Gallagher remembers the day he was lettered and how excited she was to present Galletta with the DPE letters.
Best friend, fraternity brother and roommate Mike Weinberg, a senior business administration major, recalled how much Galletta loved Rider and truly enjoyed life.
"He was really a good kid and his life was taken entirely too soon," he said.
Galletta, who would have turned 23 Wednesday, was from Old Bridge, N.J., and died Aug. 28 from injuries sustained in a car accident two weeks earlier.

Q: Mellanox and Infiniband latency I have two hosts with Voltaire HCA500Ex-D (MT25408 ConnectX Mellanox) 10Gbit cards connected to a Cisco SFS7000d IB switch via CX4 3m cables.
I'm really concerned about latency which is higher than on 1Gbit ethernet connection using same hosts.
[root@localhost ~]# ibping -G 0x0008f104039a5589
Pong from host-a.(none) (Lid 3): time 0.238 ms
Pong from host-a.(none) (Lid 3): time 0.291 ms
Pong from host-a.(none) (Lid 3): time 0.320 ms
Pong from host-a.(none) (Lid 3): time 0.290 ms
Pong from host-a.(none) (Lid 3): time 0.335 ms
Pong from host-a.(none) (Lid 3): time 0.281 ms

Most people are getting 0.040ms - 0.050ms using the same IB cards.
Cisco IB Switch and cards are running latest firmware.
I've tried connecting two hosts back-to-back eliminating the switch but latency is still 0.200ms+
Any ideas?

A: Downloading and installing a recent version of the Open Fabrics Enterprise Distribution(OFED) will give you access to a variety of tools, including ibdiagnet as well as several other IB performance testing and tuning tools.  In addition to these tools it will give you the option to install and configure openibd and OpenSM, and open source subnet manager.
Based on the documentation, the

Cisco SFS7000d IB switch

you mentioned is running its own onboard IB subnetmanager.  It would be beneficial to either

*

*Disable the subnet manager on the switch and configure OpenSM on one of the servers

*Verify that the configuration of the subnet manager on the switch is appropriate for your network
In addition to taking these steps there are a number of other tests that can effectively measure latency and bandwidth over infiniband.  Using a Message Passing Interface(MPI) implementation (OpenMPI, or a proprietary version) ping-pong benchmark test.  Here is a good example of setting up and configuring an MPI ping-pong test with OpenMPI over IB.

A: Sometime higher then expected latency depends on bad power saving behavior.
Try to disable any power management options in both the BIOS and the card drivers in both hosts, then repeat you ping test with direct server connection.
Does it change something?

So much tyranny, so little air time. The North Carolina governor thinks we should cancel Congressional elections until they can fix our problems? Great idea. Then there's the freakin' military in Wyoming helping the local cops in the epic struggle against underage drinking. Awesome. And if that's not enough, now Vinny Ravioli is running for president. Whatever . . .
What do we sound like with zero preparation and Baldy has had only 30 minutes of sleep in the last 36 hours? Here you go . . .
Our guest was Harley Schlanger of LaRouche Political Action Committee, discussing the rise of the police/security/surveillance state in the ten years since 9/11, the impending economic collapse, and other fun stuff.
Do we need a new investigation of 9/11? No? Well, you may change your mind after this show. The commissioners themselves no longer believe their own story, plus we heard shocking eye-witness accounts from reporters, firefighters, police, and others who were at the impact sites that morning.

XUZHOU, China, Aug. 22, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- After recent contract wins, XCMG, the world-leading construction machinery manufacturer, is now exporting to the Republic of Montenegro, Western Sahara, Saint Kitts and Nevis, expanding the brand's global sales and service network to a total of 182 countries and regions.
"These latest deals underscore the value proposition that XCMG offers machinery to customers around the world," said Jiansen Liu, Assistant President of XCMG and General Manager of XCMG Import and Export Co. "As we continue to expand, we are constantly upgrading our technology and service capabilities to meet the needs of high-demanding projects by sticking to our 'Advanced and Endurable' standard. More and more top-quality XCMG machinery products are making significant contributions to infrastructure projects worldwide."
XCMG's XTR260 cantilever-type tunneling machine is working on the Republic of Montenegro's north-south highway project, along with truck cranes, road rollers and land levelers.
Of note, the XTR260 has played a pivotal role boring the Pajkov Vir tunnel portion of the Montenegro highway project. Its excellent performance during its six tunneling tasks is recognized as key to the project's success in connecting the country to central Europe's road network, which will provide a key boost to the country's economic development.
As a leader of China's construction machinery industry, XCMG has accelerated its global outreach in recent years, establishing four research and development centers, 13 manufacturing bases and KD factories overseas. The company now has 300 overseas dealers, 40 offices and 40 large-scale spare parts centers.
"The growth of XCMG's exports shows the potential of Chinese construction machinery brands, and it's our responsibility and mission to become stronger with our technologies, products and services," Liu said.

Ralph Baer, the father of video games, died this week in his home in New Hampshire at the age of 92. Few of his heirs—the millions who spend hours each day playing video games—mourned. Most likely, they did not know Baer's name, which has become the answer to an extra-credit question, trivia for nerds alone to entertain. It's understandable: Even though Baer produced the first version of a home video game console, he was soon eclipsed by more audacious marketers, by better businessmen, by swamis who knew the right chants to sweep the masses. But Baer understood more than the hardware of video games; he divined their spirit, too. For that, no tribute can ever suffice.
Born in Germany in 1922, he was expelled from school by the time he turned 11, forced by the country's newly passed racial laws to attend an all-Jewish institution. Two months before Kristallnacht, his parents fled to New York, where the young boy, lacking much formal education, found work in a factory for $12 a week. Electronics, however, were his passion, and he quit his job as soon as he could afford to and enrolled at the National Radio Institute, where he studied to become a technician. This specific skill set led him, once World War II erupted, to the military intelligence division of the U.S. Army's London headquarters, where Baer had the opportunity to tinker with the best and latest gadgets. When he returned home, Baer used his G.I. Bill allotment to become one of the nation's first recipients of a bachelor's degree in television engineering, even though TVs were still scarce in America's living rooms.
He first realized that our relationship with the TV needn't be one-sided—that we can control the occurrences on screen, that we may interact—in 1965. Then working for a defense contractor called Sanders Associates, Baer was approached by the Army with a proposition: Develop a computerized simulation to help sharpen soldiers' reflexes and strategic skills. The military asked that the machine be "luggable"—no more than 80 pounds in weight—and relatively inexpensive.
Several months later, Baer had his prototype: two white dots, manipulated by rotating nobs, chasing each other on a black screen. The military poured more funding into the project, and Baer, now the head of a small battalion of engineers, dubbed the highly secretive project "The TV Game" and his own office "The Game Room."
By the end of 1966, Baer had a working prototype ready, the first-ever video game console. The members of the Pentagon review board, however, were not impressed; all they could see were several dots of light slowly coming into focus on a large, humming TV screen. Still, they decided to continue to fund the research. Baer, disheartened by the board's tepid reaction, suggested that the new invention might have commercial value. It could be, he said, a good form of home entertainment. The military, however, forbade Baer from marketing his creation, insisting that the prototype remain classified as top secret.
By mid-1967, the Pentagon abandoned the project altogether, and Baer, now free to pursue commercial partners, pitched his product to Teleprompter, Zenith, General Electric, and RCA, the big makers of TV sets. All refused. Finally, Magnavox decided to take the risk, and, in August of 1972, unveiled its creation, the Magnavox Odyssey.
In many important ways, the machine was decades ahead of its time. It was, for example, the first to show that the future lay not in arcade machines but in home consoles, and it pioneered the use of interchangeable game cartridges. But having no precedent for what such a game system could be or do, Baer and his fellow engineers made some questionable decisions, such as releasing their console with dice, playing cards, and play money, thinking that consumers would not feel at ease with a wholly electronic toy and would need the key components of board games incorporated into the play process to make them feel more at ease. Also, in lieu of graphics, the Odyssey provided plastic overlays, charming tableaus that are now collectors' items.
The machine was a big success, but not for long. Nolan Bushnell, Ralph Baer's fiercest competitor, soon launched his own company, Atari, and practiced the kind of cult-like hype that is still very much at the heart of the gaming industry. Baer remained active throughout his life and in 1978 enjoyed another visit to the toymaker's pantheon with his new creation, a small, round device with four colorful buttons known as Simon. Still, the one insight for which we are forever in his debt is the one he had early on in his career, the sort of insight only the immigrant boy who'd seen the jackboots' march could have. The idea was that maybe the cure for the ravages of human subjectivity—that sonar that seeks out nothing but differences—is a transcendent state of being with machines. His creation required much more than the turning of knobs; it called for a trance-like state of absorption. Once we hold the game controller, we close a metaphorical circuit with the machine. We are one with it. My own research as a video game scholar confirms this intuition and shows that when we play video games, we suspend much our sense of self and immerse ourselves in a state of pure being where all that matters is our ability to be in harmony with the pixels on the screen. It's a sweet utopia, and it's what makes playing video games—an activity too often unfairly judged as mindless and corrupting—into nothing short of a religious experience. And we owe it all to Ralph Baer.

With this, the life Taylor has come to know is over. Relying on the strength of a lifelong friend who refuses to let her succumb to the intense waves of grief, she slowly begins to find her way out of the shadows. Over the course of two years, through appointments with attorneys and therapists, purging shared belongings, and pushing herself to meet new people and do new things, Taylor not only regains a sense of control in her life, she also learns to enjoy the new life she has built, the friendships she's formed—and to savor her newfound strength.
When Taylor's husband unexpectedly proclaims he is, "done with the marriage and doesn't want to talk about it," the life Taylor has come to know is over. Will she succumb to her grief or eventually triumph?
Kathryn Taylor was born at the Great Lakes Naval Station near Chicago, Illinois and spent much of her life in the Chicagoland area. When she entered first grade, reading came easily to Taylor. Decades before terms such as "peer tutoring" and "collaborative learning" had been coined, her teacher had an inspiring idea. She would allow Kathryn to assist classmates struggling to decode those pesky letter combinations and help them learn to read. Taylor experienced an undeniable sense of fulfillment helping her classmates and licking gold stars onto completed pages. The desire to become a teacher took root. Taylor enjoyed thirty years in the classroom and had taught in the schools of Illinois, California, and Virginia before her retirement and relocation to South Carolina. It was there where Taylor wrote her book, Two Minus One: A Memoir following the unexpected abandonment by her second husband. Taylor is an avid reader, enthusiastic traveler, and incurable beach lover. She resides outside of Charleston, SC, with her rescue dog, Lucy, where she can enjoy all three of her favorite past times.

Beautiful meal and service at Lone Star. The staff were fantastic and as always the food was really good with great portions.
The whole experience was fantastic- from the service to the meals. I had the salmon, and my husband had a gorgeous steak (the Paris Texas)- both were cooked and tasted 100% perfect. Well done team Lone Star!
Dined with a friend. We both chose the special of the day 'Savannah Lamb'. Delicious and very generous portions. Would highly recommend.
The lunch time mains were fantastic and the garlic bread starter was delicious. Highly recommend.
We have been living in Queenstown for 15 years.
This restaurant was the first to eat out for me in Queenstown 15 years ago!
It was the second time to come there.
We all were very satisfied with the volume!
We ordered Egg Benedict, Prawn, Chicken, and Banophie Pie.
Everything was delicious, but the baby back ribs were great with lots of meat!
Huge portions - great quality and really friendly staff!
Lone Star ⭐ Has excellent service, pro active staff and generous helpings of healthy delicious food. The meals are beautifully presented, attractive and appertizing. You will enjoy the stimulating atmosphere as well as delicious refreshing drinks! Altogether a very satisfying experience! Thanks Lone Star! We will definitely be back again!
Loney was superb as always. Fantastic cuisine and entertaining excellent service. Baz is a legend!
`Rockin Ribeye' was the obvious choice for me having recently progressed from Keto Diet to Full Carnivore. Lone Star were happy to substitute eggs and mushrooms for the fries, onions and coleslaw that the 300g steak normally comes with and recommended Steinlager Pure as a great low carb beer to go with what turned out to be a fabulously tasty Valentine's Day steak. Highly recommend, esp on First Table !!
As to be expected with Lone Star - friendly service and a hearty portion of food!
Great food and service, really enjoyed Baz our waiter with a difference who made the evening fun.
Lone Star for 18 years.
Service was great and also the food, we got lunch so it was really quiet. I had the stuffed chicken, it was huge portion, very filling and tasty! My brother had the aged rib eye steak and did not disappoint, his girlfriend had the salmon and she was happy with the dish!
Food was very tasty and large portions.
Our waiter was particularly friendly.
Our family group very much enjoyed our meal at Lone Star Queenstown, and the fact that it is on First Table just makes it even better!
We sat outside at a lovely table of our choice, as it was a hot day, and enjoyed our Beef Burgers, Johnny Cash Chicken and kids chicken tender meals. Make sure that you leave room for one of their delicious desserts, but this may be a challenge as the main meals are huge!
The service was excellent. The young female staff member who looked after our table was outstanding - very attentive, friendly and professional, and is a real asset to this place. We did not have to wait too long for our meals or drinks, but did not feel as if we were being rushed through either.
We recommend this place to all for a great dining experience.
Lone Star is always a really good option. Service and food very nice.
Wow, have been to some not so great Lone Stars in the past but we were very surprised, great food and fantastic staff very welcoming. A plus we will return and would recommand to others.
Always great consistency in the he food. Good to see Basil again.
Waiter was so friendly & efficient. Meal was so so yummy! And with this discount it was ridiculously cheap! Can't wait to go back!
Really good dining experience, good size dishes and nice service!
Always my favorite!! Great food and service as usual!
Having been to many Lone Stars around New Zealand, we always have enjoyed the Queenstown Lone Star, not just for the food, but Basil our very entertaining waiter. He has been a fixture at Lone Star Queenstown for many years and never fails to disappoint with his attentive service and witty comments.
I had the Classic Johnny Cash Stash which was hot, filling and perfect, while two others in our group had the Salmon which they raved about, and the other member having the Gerhard Burger which was so big they could barely finish it. We couldnt manage dessert as we were too full, but there were some great choices on offer.The Lone Star in Queenstown always delivers and was the perfect end to a day spent up the gondola and doing some serious lugeing. When you dine at the Lone Star ask for Basil, he'll get you sorted.
Wow, what an experience with First Table..
Kids were :-) & parents were happy too! We would have 2 return 4 sure!
Awesome food. Awesome service! Will def be back!
The food was amazing...this was both quantity and quality! :) (We ordered the Johny Cash Stash). Nicest Lone Star meal we had ever had.
Amazing experience! The salmon was great and the waiter really friendly.
Service is always amazing such a lovely man. Food was great too. Definitely go again.
Had a great time from the get go The staff are super friendly and professional and the food was awesome Can't fault this Kai.
Such nice people and delicious food. My kids enjoyed it so much.
While we had a bit of a wait for our meal it was worth the wait! Service was fantastic by our waiter who was very entertaining. Thanks Lone Star we will be back.
Amazing food. Amazing staff. Always will be the best place to go.

January 28, 2019 – U.K.-headquartered specialist retail executive search firm Retail Executives Limited has expanded with the addition of Matthew Parry as partner.
Having started his career in the U.K. retail sector, Mr. Parry joined an international executive recruiter to help launch their retail business. He subsequently joined international search firm Connected Group to head its consumer practice in the Middle East. On his return to the U.K., he joined Dixons Retail and was responsible for the appointment of both board and senior executives during one of the country's leading retail turnarounds. He has since worked with search firms such as Barracuda Search, the Miles Partnership, Norman Broadbent and Stonehaven International in appointing their boards and senior leadership teams.
In his new role with Retail Executives Limited, Mr. Parry's main focus with be on expanding the retail executive search, covering all areas of retail, hospitality and leisure in the C-suite and board recruitment.
In addition, Retail Executives Limited added Jean-Pierre (JP) Gadsdon and Jane Carver commence as associate directors.
Mr. Gadsdon has a long history in talent acquisition, working with some of the U.K.'s leading retailers and hospitality brands, working for George at ASDA, then moving on to FatFace, Carluccio's and River Island.
Ms. Carver trained in retail buying with Arcadia Group and Etam. With 11 years agency recruitment under her belt, she moved to in-house search to lead the talent teams of Calvin Klein, Jaeger and Clarks, where she specialized in growing and developing their direct talent acquisition strategies, executive recruitment and partnering with the people teams to support their retention and succession planning both across the U.K. and Europe.
"Matthew brings to the firm a wealth of invaluable experience of not just executing senior board levels roles but acquiring and retaining client and candidate relationships," said Richard Hollister, managing partner of Retail Executives Limited. "Matthew has the same ethos as the rest of the team in making this the No.1 retail executive search firm and being candidate focused. Matthew will build up a team of highly skilled recruiters to grow the firm.
Retail Executives Limited was formed in 2018 by Mr. Hollister, a veteran of the recruitment industry. The firm, which employs senior fashion and retail executives, said it will be announcing additional hires over the coming weeks.
Retail Executives recently announced the launch of its retail advisory division, REAN, the Retail Executives Advisory Network. Headed by Sarah Curran-Usher MBE. Other recent hires include Sarah Gillett, an experienced human resources director within the retail and hospitality sectors, who has been appointed non-executive director.
Retailers are facing major shifts in their businesses that call for "unprecedented responses" by CEOs who can effectively lead through change, intuitively and analytically understand the evolving consumer and respond to ambiguity, according to search consultants. Developed markets, excess retail capacity, rising prices, the shift to omni-channel retail and the unpredictable pace of change in consumer shopping habits all affect the type of leader that retailers need.
According to search firm Herbert Mines, 31 percent of incoming retail CEOs are focused on international expansion as a key strategic priority, making that global mindset a competitive differentiator when searching for new leaders.
Retail CEO turnover is accelerating. New York-based Herbert Mines reported that 47 percent of public retail companies with revenues exceeding $1 billion experienced a chief executive change the past five years (up from 34 percent during the previous three years). Since 2007, 71 percent of retail companies have experienced a switch in CEO.

Sugarmen - Local Freaks
Well this album has certainty taken us back to an era that we have been missing lately. Local Freaks is packed full of the slightly melancholic swagger of the early 00's and is reminiscent of the feeling behind the indie movement at the time, 'Thunder In The Foothills' (our personal favourite on the album) being a prime example. The message that came out of that time was basically , 'life may seem a bit shit sometimes, but it ain't that bad, and we're getting through. So you may as well get pissed and have a bit of a laugh.' I don't think there are many who would argue with this philosophy. This is all captured perfectly in the lyrics, most notably, the line "We found our place and that's just fine" in 'Central Line'. The album even ends with the chorus "This is my life and it's alright".
Speaking of finding their place, the Liverpool Four-piece are a band entrenched in their city's culture. Although the album does vary in style from song to song, the album's Liverpool heritage can be felt throughout. Even though it may seem an obvious connection , 'Central Line' does show a clear Beatles influence. The simplistic, yet uplifting melodies characterized by The Beatles and more recently, The Coral provide the bedrock of the album. Sugarmen also tick another necessity for any scouse band... Creating a true sense of atmosphere. As the psych/garage movement has slowly seeped into the heart of the city, it has become one of the most prevalent and lively scenes in Liverpool, with bands such as Ohmns and Strange Collective dominating the underground circuit. Some of the sounds from this genre have definitely crept into the album in tracks such as 'Sold' and 'Golden One' . With the reverb whacked up and the darker synth provided the backdrop, there is more of an arrogance behind these tracks that will create some special live nights.
Liverpool is a very tough city to breakthrough in, so after slaving away here for as long as they have, Sugarmen should be incredibly proud of their debut album. Local Freaks gives you everything you could ask for from both ends of the indie-rock scale. Infectious dance-worthy chorus' , sing-a-long melodies and darker , more atmospheric tracks perfect for moshing. They have captured the current feeling of their beloved town and are pulsating it to the rest of the country whether they like it or not. So whether your from Liverpool or Ahsby-de-la-zouch, let this one slip into your ears cos' its a cracker! You can keep up to date with the Album and any Sugarmen gigs via their Facebook.

Q: Preserving formatting when copying and pasting in MS Word10 I'm a writer. I am copying chapters and pasting them into a master file. I have the reveal formatting button on and all looks the same in both documents. But sometimes (1 out of 10 times) when I copy a chapter and paste it into the master, the fonts, shadowing and paragraph formatting change when I paste.I have only a "homeowner's" knowledge of computer terminology.

A: In Word there are two kinds of formatting, there is "Character" and "Paragraph" formatting (there is a third kind kind managed by section jumps, that is page formatting, but I don't think here it's the case).
When you copy a section of text, you could be selecting only characters or the whole paragraph. If you select only characters, the paragraph formatting will not be copied. If you use the "Show hidden characters " you'll see the paragraph marks.
Here you select only Characters:

Here you Select the whole paragraph:

So, in the second case, the paragraph formatting (line spacing, justify, etc.) will be copied.

On March 30, just one year ago, little two-year-old Ethan Carnesecca, from American Fork, Utah, was admitted to the hospital with pneumonia and fluid around his lungs. Two days later, his condition had become so serious that he needed to be flown by helicopter to Primary Children's Hospital in Salt Lake City. His worried mother, Michele, was allowed to ride in the front seat and accompany her son. She was given a headset so she could communicate with the others in the helicopter. She could hear the medics working on her sick little boy, and being a pediatric nurse herself, Michele knew enough to understand that Ethan was in serious trouble.
"I had learned about the blessings of the temple and [that] 'families are forever' in Primary and in Young Women. I shared the message on families to the good people of Mexico on my mission. I was sealed to my eternal companion for time and all eternity in the temple. I taught lessons about families as a Young Women leader, and I shared stories about forever families with my children in family home evening. I KNEW it, but did I BELIEVE it? My answer came as quickly as the question popped into my head: the Spirit confirmed to my heart and mind the answer I already knew—I DID believe it!
As members of the Lord's true Church, we are already in the boat. We don't have to go searching through the philosophies of the world for truth that will give us comfort, help, and direction to get us safely through the trials of life—we already have it! Just as Ethan's mother could examine her long-held beliefs and declare confidently in a moment of crisis, "I do believe it," so can we!
I bear witness that our membership in the Lord's kingdom is a gift of immeasurable value. I testify that the blessings and peace the Lord has in store for those who are obedient and faithful exceed anything the human mind can comprehend. I leave this testimony with you in the name of Jesus Christ, amen.
Personal journal entry shared with Bonnie L. Oscarson.

Film Voices are Part of Astro Boy Video Game

D3Publisher announced today that Astro Boy: The Video Game based on Imagi Studios' highly anticipated CG-animated movie, will feature the voice talents of Freddie Highmore and Kristen Bell. Both actors will reprise their onscreen voiced roles of Astro Boy (Highmore), and Cora (Bell) in a video game that will take players on an epic adventure to save Metro City from the clutches of evil.
Astro Boy: The Video Game will be available in North American retail stores for Wii, Nintendo DS, PlayStation 2, and the PSP system on October 20, 2009 to coincide with Summit Entertainment's nationwide domestic release of the movie on October 23, 2009.
"We're pleased to work with both Freddie Highmore and Kristen Bell on Astro Boy: The Video Game," said Alison Quirion, vice president of marketing, D3Publisher. "Their participation adds an even greater level of authenticity to the video game and further immerses players in the Astro Boy universe."
In Astro Boy: The Video Game, players become the iconic hero, Astro Boy, and take to the streets and skies on an epic adventure to save Metro City from the clutches of the evil President Stone and his robot army. Utilizing Astro's entire arsenal of iconic weapons and abilities–Finger Lasers, Arm Cannon, Butt Machine Guns and Drill Attacks–players will battle hordes of robot enemies and colossal bosses including some never-before-seen enemies across Metro City and the mysterious Surface.

DAS Antennas to be Heard, Not Seen
Aesthetics are important to most commercial buildings, including hotels, historic buildings, hospitals, colleges and restaurants. So, it begs the question, what is the best way to promote the deployment of DAS antennas, which can alter a structure's look? Galtronics thinks it has the answer: hide them or at least make them less obvious.
Galtronics' Pear DAS in-building antenna line, showcased last week at DAS Congress in Las Vegas, minimizes the visible size of the antenna or even conceals it from public view.
The challenge of developing the antennas, Ephraim Ulmer, president and CEO of Galtronics, told DAS Bulletin at International CTIA Wireless 2012 in New Orleans, was to make sure the performance of the antennas was not degraded.
"The new low-profile indoor antennas have been fully tested to operate above hard ceilings and drop ceilings," Ulmer said. "To place an antenna above the ceiling, you have to make sure that it is designed to radiate at the right angles through the ceiling to get the coverage that the carriers need. Because of the metal grid in the ceiling that interacts with the antenna, we had to design the propagation patterns to minimize that interaction to maintain antenna performance."
After launching the industry's first MIMO indoor antenna last year, which helped aesthetics by reducing the number of antennas needed in a building, Galtronics then went to work on a form factor that would make those antennas more aesthetically pleasing and even hidden above the ceiling tile.
Ulmer noted that hiding antennas comes naturally for the company, which integrated the antennas inside of today's cell phone handsets and inside of the Cisco router's enclosure.
"In the same reason we hid antennas inside of handsets, we wanted to hide them inside buildings," Ulmer said. "[Aesthetics] have been driving the strategy. Our ultimate goal is to please the building owner with an antenna solution that does not compromise the building's interior design … and to make the system integrators' and installers' jobs easier."
Pear in-building DAS offers several different options, including a through-ceiling mount, for the Pear S4935 and M4969 antennas, which conceals the antenna with only the nose protruding through the ceiling; an above ceiling mount (for antennas Pear M4772, M4969 and S4935), which conceals the antenna completely from public view; and a flush hard ceiling mount where the antenna is attached to a round plastic plate that is the only visible part of the antenna after installation.
Galtronics has received carrier approval for the in-building antenna line and is now marketing to building owners, carriers, neutral hosts and integrators.
"The next step is to make these integrations known to the venue owners — the people who care about the aesthetics of the building," Ulmer said. "If you can get the performance that you need from the antenna and not see the antenna or only see a little bit of it, you are in the sweet spot."

During about 1998-2001 I created about 40-45 handmade books. I started making these books after a friend gave me the front and back cover of a small old book, I decided to sew some pages in and drew/collaged/painted on them. I loved the process, materiality of the book and its given nature. I slowly learned to somewhat bind the books and continued on from there.
I thought of each book as its own, and had specific stories, ideas I wanted to explore. This process allowed me to experiment with form, color, ideas that I was interested in. I liked the insular and personal aspect to the books and think I kept those qualities once I started painting.
I also never thought that these should be seen or really thought much of them. But, looking at these books again almost fifteen years later, I see some of the same ideas and imagery that I am still intrigued by.

Cardi B's House: A Sneak Peek At Her Mansion In Atlanta
by Audrey August 6, 2021, 2:50 am 1.6k Views
Cardi B is a show-stopper in many ways. Her music videos are remarkable. And her performance in movies, especially in Hustlers and F9, is nothing short of extraordinary. Why should her house be any different? Just before the Christmas of 2019, she and her husband Offset bought a home near Chastain Park. And the property, like the personalities of the owners, is also a total stunner. Indeed, a home can live up to the glam life of the owners.
Cardi B's Search for Her Dream Home
In the spring of 2017, the property appeared to be listed at $9.9 million. And other reports show that it's previously offered at $35,000-per-month rental. Cardi B and Offset have also spent 2 years looking for an apt property to buy until they came across this estate via a list by Dorsey Alston Realtors. The 22,000-sq.-ft. Sandy Springs mansion costs $5.79 million, and it comes with all the luxury and chic features one can dream of having in a home.
Cardi B's Sandy Springs Mansion Features
Cardi's magnificent estate has everything you could ever dream of in a home. Here are the key features of her home:
Sprawling lawn with private garden with pool – The massive area of the property gives the owners a lot of outdoor space, which they can convert into their kind of paradise. And for Offset and Cardi, the couple opted to have a relaxing private garden. Plus, they also added a pool with marble dolphin sculptures and beige and green loungers. A perfect place to relax and take a refreshing swim.
Massive walk-in closets – Cardi B has a soft spot for Birkins, and Offset has a fascination for shoes. Hence, both of them set aside exclusive spaces for their Birkins and shoe collection. Both of them have walk-in closets filled with all their favorite OOTDs.
Capacity – If there's one word that can describe Cardi B's home, it's colossal. Her huge estate consists of 5 bedrooms, 7 bathrooms, and 4 half-baths. Plus, it has a garage that can accommodate 4 cars. Of course, it also has a home office, living rooms, fireplaces, and sitting areas both outdoors and indoors. The main room has a fireside sitting section.
Gun range – The property also has an area with steel walls – a gun range. Although the actress said they have plans to use the space, there's no news yet as to the specifics of their plan.
1,800-bottle wine cellar – Yes, you guessed it right. Cardi B now has a wine cellar that could service a restaurant. Perhaps, the performer has plans on becoming a wine connoisseur. Or better yet, she might have plans on throwing frequent wine and music parties for her friends and family.
Chef's kitchen that opens to a fireside family room and outdoor terrace – The actress might have admitted that she's not fond of cooking in a TikTok video. But it's possible that her fully furnished and well-designed chef's kitchen could ignite her love for good food! Everything is possible if she has everything she needs from the basic kitchen utensils to the choicest gourmet ingredients.
The home is initially listed at $5.79 million. But who knows how much the couple really paid in total, including all the renovations, furniture pieces, fancy decors, and additional features. Overall, the result is breathtakingly impressive.
The Home She Deserves
We all witnessed how Cardi B hustles. Her hard work shows in her music videos and movies. Plus, she also has other projects for other channels, including YouTube, TikTok, and Facebook. Her business ventures are also starting to take off. Her joint projects with other rappers might be fun, but her schedules could also get out of hand sometimes. In the midst of all her work, stress is inevitable. And it's always a good thing to come home to a luxurious and relaxing personal space at the end of each long day. But with her newly purchased home, she's guaranteed an abode that can meet the needs of her glam lifestyle. In her next music videos, photo shoots, and random selfies, you can definitely see glimpses of her Sandy Springs mansion.

Norma Johnson Center Luminary Walk is Dec. 11
By Lori Feeney
Otis Lautzenheiser, left, and his dad, Nick Lautzenheiser, attended a previous Luminary Walk at the Norma Johnson Center.
Tusc Parks will have a free Luminary Walk at the Norma Johnson Center on Dec. 11 from 4:30-7:30 p.m.
This year's approximately half-mile walk will be a little different than in previous years, according to Marsha Freeland, Tusc Parks education manager.
"We have held the walk at the back of the property before," Freeland said. "But this year we are going to do it at the front of the property because part of the trail is now accessible."
The first section of the approximately half-mile loop will leave from the Preservation Loop kiosk. From there visitors can stroll the newly accessible Preservation Trail, lit with luminaries, to Preservation Pond.
The second part of the walk takes visitors on a brief venture through the woodlands, with trees aglow from suspended paper lanterns.
"It's the most magical thing," Freeland said. "I could just take a hammock or a sleeping bag and sleep out there all night because it's so beautiful. The paper lanterns are hung in the trees, but they look like they're floating."
Freeland said those who don't wish to walk through the woods can simply follow the first part of the trail to Preservation Pond and return to the parking lot.
Guests can get warm and toasty at the yellow pole barn with hot cocoa and cookies, starting at 4:30 p.m.
"It's a nice family event where you can explore the forest at night, beautifully lit, and not have to worry about your surroundings," Freeland said.
The event is free, and no reservations are required. The Norma Johnson Center is located at 3976 state Route 39, three miles west of the Dover exit on I-77.
Those planning to attend should watch the Norma Johnson Center Facebook page for a cancellation message in the event of rain.
Those unable to attend the Luminary Walk can enjoy other activities at the Norma Johnson Center such as hiking and walking, photography, dog walking, birding, and other outdoor pursuits.
The nonprofit center also hosts family-focused activities, nature-based educational events and school field trips. Visit the center's Facebook page or www.normajohnsoncenter.com.

There was a bike boom in the mid 1970s in America, this was part of the fitness movement. European road bikes, which were for the most part fully equipped racing bikes, were being imported into the US.
The average American is keen to try different sports, but only a few will dedicate the time and effort to reach any level of expertise.
It's true. A thoroughbred road bike is an unforgiving machine — just looking at the saddle is enough to make a grown man wince. Add skinny tyres, handlebars you need to bend over to reach, gears calibrated for hardened professionals, and you have a machine all too likely to stay in storage. You need to be fit and confident to enjoy riding a road bike.
You even more confidence to ride off-road, though. You'll need to be fitter, too. Cefn Bryn, at the back of my house, is popular with mountain bikers. The gradients are steep. The paths are muddy, edged with gorse, and strewn with gritty nuggets of bryn stone: tough on foot, treacherous on wheels.
So why ever did the mountain bike catch on?
My take on why the Mountain Bike took off when it did. There was a whole generation of young adults who had grown up in the 1970s with BMX bikes; they remembered how they used to perform jumps and stunts. The MTB was possibly seen as an adult version of a BMX.
Maybe. I think he's right to associate the mountain bike's acceptance with fun and leisure, rather than exercise. But it's the next paragraph which rings true with me.
For the general public too, here was a bike that was easier to ride than a road bike, with its upright position and fat tires.
Right! And let's not forget decent brakes. Those low gears, designed for use on hills, make zipping across town a snip. Urban riding is about starting, stopping, negotiating obstacles. A mountain bike performs well.
I bought my first mountain bike, a Specialized Rockhopper, in Sydney, where I worked for three months as a bike courier. It did the job admirably and performed equally well in the same role in Melbourne. It wasn't the fastest machine to take on the great Victorian bike ride, but we never went further than 100km in a day. It was a reliable, solid bike for touring the Tasmanian hills.
The Rockhopper came back back with me to England. I ended up in Cambridge, one of the few British cities where bikes are truly popular for getting about, where it served me well until someone stole it.
A few years later, in Bristol, I acquired another mountain bike. I can't remember what brand. I got it second hand from a colleague who was trading up to a full-suspension model: I just wanted something sturdy enough to attach a child seat. If you're carrying a child, you want comfort and safety.
The point is: I never used my mountain bikes off-road. A classically-styled mountain bike is not the 2 wheel equivalent of the ridiculous, grid-locked 4 wheel drive. Their design is sturdy, versatile, and well-suited to general road use. Hence their enduring popularity. My children's bikes look like mountain bikes. The bargain bikes you pick up in supermarkets look like mountain bikes.
Unfortunately, what a mountain bike looks like has changed. In an effort to persuade people to upgrade, manufacturers keep adding new features. Isobel's bike has suspension: that's what kids' bikes come with now (and let's not mention the hand bag). Combine this spongy suspension with a heavy steel frame and knobbly tyres, and you've got a clumsy, energy-sapping machine.
I'm convinced the current trend for fixed wheel bikes is a reaction against the over-engineering of the urban mountain bike. Some off-road features have no place in a city. A fixie is simple, nimble, direct. A fixie can be fast, too. It has direct power transmission and few moving parts. The fastest cyclist on the planet rides a fixed wheel.
The fixie won't catch on like the mountain bike, though. Oh, I'm sure manufacturers are delighted to cash in on these stripped-down machines; they'll hold on to the surplus cogs, derailleurs and shifters until people realise they need them. Without gears, cycling is too much work, especially for a beginner. Pushing a bike up a hill is neither cool nor fun.
I reckon Jonny has the right idea. His matt black Cannondale Bad Boy 700 comes within a whisker of being camp (you Bad boy! you), but it's just about perfect for urban use: no suspension, sealed bearings, disc brakes, slick tyres. Its stealth finish won't ever look dirty. And look at the range of gears!
Not everyone can afford a Cannondale, though. If manufacturers truly want to benefit from the fixie they should cross it with the mountain bike. Then we'd have something simple, safe, accessible. Something cool enough to be seen out with. Something so much fun to ride it won't get left in the shed.
Thanks to Brenton Salo for kindly allowing me to use his cycling in the rain photo.

Six more educators indicted in the test-cheating case in the Atlanta public schools pleaded guilty in a hearing on Monday, agreeing to lesser charges in exchange for their cooperation with prosecutors.
In the same hearing, former Atlanta Superintendent Beverly Hall—a one-time national superintendent of the year—stood by her not guilty plea in the racketeering conspiracy and will proceed toward a jury trial later this year, according to a report in the Atlanta Journal-Constitution.
Monday's six negotiated plea deals from teachers, a school secretary, and one principal follow those of several other former Atlanta educators. A Fulton County, Ga., jury indicted 35 educators early last year—including Ms. Hall—in a sprawling conspiracy case that accused them of changing students' standardardized test scores or giving correct answers in an effort to make the school district's academic performance look better than it was.
A handful of additional defendants, including the district's former director of human resources, are still negotiating with prosecutors on plea deals, according to the Journal-Constitution. The remaining defendants, including Hall, will face trial in the coming months, where they are certain to hear former colleagues testify against them.
Fulton County Superior Court Judge Jerry Baxter, who is presiding over the case, promised a fair trial, but aso warned that there would be severe consequences for defendants who are convicted, according to the Journal-Constitution.

Two crooks caught on video pulling man from car to beat and rob him in Brooklyn: NYPD
By Emily Davenport
Photos courtesy of the NYPD
The NYPD is looking for a pair of crooks who beat and robbed a man in Brooklyn over the summer.
According to authorities, a 28-year-old man was waiting for a group of friends while parked in his car outside of 217 Sheffield Avenue at 12:32 a.m. on Aug. 17. At this time, a pair of unknown men exited a parked SUV that was across the street and behind the man's car and approached him.
The suspects demanded that the victim get out of his car and forcibly removed him. The first suspect proceeded to hit the victim with an expandable nightstick while the second suspect pulled out a black firearm and stole the victim's ID.
The suspect with the nightstick fled the scene on foot while the other took off in the SUV. The victim sustained minor injuries and refused medical attention at the scene.
The NYPD released surveillance video and photos of the suspects taken at the scene:
https://www.amny.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/2812-20-Robbery-75-Pct-8-17-20-FINAL.mp4
The first suspect is described as a 30-year-old man with a dark complexion and a medium build, standing 6 feet tall and weighing 160 pounds. He was last seen wearing a baseball hat, a white t-shirt, blue jeans, white sneakers and in possession of an expandable nightstick.
The second suspect is described as a 30-year-old man with a dark complexion, facial hair and a medium build, standing 5 feet, 8 inches tall and weighing 160 pounds. He was last seen wearing a durag, a light color shirt, black pants, white sneakers and in possession of a black firearm.
Anyone with information in regard to this incident is asked to call the NYPD's Crime Stoppers Hotline at 1-800-577-TIPS (8477) or for Spanish, 1-888-57-PISTA (74782). The public can also submit their tips by logging onto the Crime Stoppers website or on Twitter @NYPDTips. All calls are strictly confidential.
