What are four consecutive numbers that add up to 786?
The numbers are 195, 196, 197 and 198.
Q: What are four consecutive numbers that add up to 786?
What are four consecutive numbers that add up to 36?
This is impossible - no four consecutive integers add to 36.
There are no four consecutive whole numbers that add up to 35. The sum of two consecutive [whole] numbers is an even number plus an odd number which is an odd number. The sum of two consecutive numbers and the two next consecutive numbers is the sum of two odd numbers which is even, but 35 is odd, so no four consecutive whole numbers cannot add up to 35.
What four consecutive prime numbers add up to 220?
The four consecutive prime numbers that add up to 220 are: 47+53+59+61 = 220
92,93,94,95
94 = 22 + 23 + 24 + 25Four consecutive numbers that add to 94 are 25,26,27,28.
Four consecutive numbers adding up to ten are: 1+2+3+4
The four consecutive numbers whose sum is 762 are 189, 190, 191 and 192.
What are four consecutive numbers that add up to 4920?
The numbers are 1227, 1229, 1231 and 1233.
The numbers are 168, 170, 172, and 174.
The numbers are 56, 57, 58, and 59.
The numbers are 51, 52, 53 and 54.
What are four consecutive numbers that add up to -42?
The numbers are -12, -11, -10 and -9.
The numbers are 0, 2, 4 and 6.
What are four consecutive whole numbers that add up to 178?
What four consecutive odd numbers add up to 240?
There are no such numbers. If S is the sum of any 4 consecutive integers then S = 2 (mod 4) In other words, any four consecutive integers add up to an even number that is NOT dvisible by 4.
8+9+10+11
108, 162, 216 & 270
97, 98, 99 and 100.
half of 350 is 175, 2 consecutive numbers that add to 175 are 87 and 88, so the answer to your question is 86, 87, 88 & 89.
What Four consecutive even numbers that add up to 260?
Answer: The even numbers are 62, 64, 66, and 68

The Frontier Park and Lodge (21718 Meridian E.) in Graham has proven itself one of the most versatile venues in the region.
The lodge is rented for a wide-range of events; weddings, celebrations of life, birthday and holiday parties, and much more.
The park, meanwhile, is open to the public, and plays host to the Pierce County Fair, the Tacoma Highland Games, equestrian shows, car shows, track racing, and even casual recreation.
The grandiose 71-acre complex is filled with both large woods and turf areas. A $1.3 million renovation has transformed the former home economics building into a rustic lodge and historical site, and is more than twice as large as the original structure.
Frontier Lodge was officially dedicated with a ribbon-cutting ceremony on July 12, 2007. Along with the aforementioned elements, the park also has play equipment with a picnic area, space for kite flying and playing on turf, restrooms with showers, paved and unpaved areas for walking, and a racetrack run by the Little Wheels Racing Association at the park's northwest corner, next to the back parking lot.
The recreation classes scheduled by the county are typically held Monday through Thursday (a quarterly guide can be found on the Pierce County website, link below), with Friday through Sunday serving as the usual rental period.
Oftentimes, its planned nuptials looking to lock down the following summer.
The lodge itself has two sides, one with a fireplace that can fit approximately 140 people, the other a bit smaller, that can hold just over 70.
When asked what people may not know about the facility, Clay noted that the design is a remodel of an expansion of one of the barns.
"It's not a real barn, but it has a rustic feel," she said.
Interestingly enough, Ezra Meeker and his father Jacob planted the first hop cuttings in the Puyallup River Valley more than 150 years ago. Ezra built Puyallup's first hop-drying barn next to his cabin in what is now Pioneer Park. The are proved to be well-suited to the cultivation of hops, which became the valley's premiere crop by the early 1880s. But a plague of hop lice devastated the hop crops up and down the West Coast in the early 1890s, and the Puyallup Valley's hop industry never recovered.
The lodge is only staffed when something is scheduled in the building, but open houses are held once a month for the public (that information is posted on the park's website and Facebook page).
"It's free of charge as long as nothing's scheduled," Clay said.

Vocal instruction based on the true historic bel canto training. A scientific understanding of balancing the Vocal Vectors.
I will be posting recordings of students before and afters and some clips of performances and lessons. Please subscribe.
A more recent recording of my young student showing more development. This vocal transitions comes via singing properly dark and developing chest voice. Today voices are taught to lessons chest and lighten; especially when changing to tenor.
These changes were made by lessons over Skype.
The purpose of science in singing is no to understand how muscles work so that a great voice can be constructed. We cannot possibly do that. There are too many variables in the way muscles can work together.
What science should do is show us exactly how all the great singers were able to make the sounds they did. How did Del Monaco, Caruso, Ruffo, Ponselle, Tebaldi, Mardones, Merrill, Nilsson etc. sing the way they did? What made that singing possible? How were there so many artists able to sing that way?
Understanding how their voices functioned by understanding the science of singing tells us how the vocal apparatus and body should be work to make those sounds. The science should also tell us what we need to develop to make those sounds. Many people are potentially capable of singing that way, but when the proper understanding and guidance isn't available to them it is not possible to reach that level of singing.
Many people know all the muscles, cartilages and so on. However, like I said, there are many, many ways that all of these can coordinate together, but some are much more efficient than others. That efficiency is what will allow the voice to be free.
It is very easy for a singer to believe a free voice is a lightened voice; and that is what is taught today. If the voice is lightened it can feel easier, but only if trying to sing bigger and heavier is done with constriction. The constriction will make singing big very difficult. So the constriction is the problem. That is what must be eliminated so that singing big is possible without having to struggle. Singing lighter lacks power, harmonics, and is not as rich of a sound. It is not the sound required for opera at all.
The greatest singers did not sing with this idea of a light sound. They sang with a full, rich voice of power, range and dynamics. That is what we all should be striving for. That is what the greatest singers did and that is why we need science. To show us the path to getting there.
Always remember that when scientists today hook up equipment to singers to see what is happening with the voice they can only go by what that singer is doing. They are not hooking equipment up to Tebaldi.
They key to singing great is efficiency. If our voices are not efficient we end up having all kinds of problems from "pushing the voice" to lack of power and range. We have to understand vocal registration and the vocal vectors.
Vocal registration includes things like falsetto and chest voice. And we must develop both fully. The Vocal Vectors are the up pull, down pull, back pull and forward pull of the larynx. Registration affects the vectors directly.
Since the Vocal Vectors have 4 different directional pulls it is important to balance those pulls properly. Too much pull from one vector throws the larynx out of proper position of the larynx when we sing. Depending on which vector is out of balance determines which result we get. For example, too much up pull can give us throat closure.
The technique is was taught is based on balancing the vocal vectors which absolutely involves developing the chest and falsetto registers. This balance is what every great singer has. No great singer was unable to sing in chest or falsetto. People wonder how great singers do what they do. And this is how; the balancing of the vectors.
Many people look back at all the great singers in history and do not understand that what made them great was that their voices were not blocked by constrictive tension. The idea of "singing with an open throat" is often thrown around in the singing world to describe what a great singers do. And you can read a million different articles on how to achieve it. Or have hundreds of voice teachers who tell you different ways to get it. The best way to understand it and to have a clear way of how to do it is through the balancing of the Vocal Vectors which includes proper vocal registration.
Nasality is a quality that singers should remove from their singing. Unfortunately, the idea of "placing the sound in the mask" has caused many modern day singers to become nasal and constricted. This sound has become widely accepted today as it has been forced upon singers as being the "right sound". It isn't. For those who really want to know how to remove this nasality there is only one way to do so.
When someone sings with nasality there is quite often an excessive leakage of air coming through the nose. The sound can be "honky", squeezed, buzzy, noisy and so on. However, if a singer correctly sings "dark" it will eliminate this nasality. It is not possible to sing dark and nasally.
I say "properly dark" because there are ways that people sing darkly that is incorrect. Singing with a dark quality means that there is an elongation of the vocal tract which makes a deeper sound, but there must also be intense core/squillo in the sound. Some people equate darkness in the sound to depth in the sound.
I often use the example of non classical singers who go between singing nasally and then darker. You can hear a stark difference between the nasal sounds - when it is not dark - and then a riddance of nasality when they sing dark/deep. I will post and example below and also some classical examples. And always try to remember that if there is any such thing as a "mask" -which there isn't - then it is in the pharynx, not in the front part of the face.
My incredible teacher. Not only was he an amazing teacher he was one of the greatest singers in history he was one of the greatest teachers in history.
I have sung and taught internationally. The technique I teach is based on a scientific understanding efficient vocal function based on the vocal vectors. I teach in person or via skype. Please fee free to visit my youtube channel for examples the results of my teaching.

On a footpath in Fitzwilliam Square [Dublin 2] just now – an envelope with a sum of money enclosed. Would hate to see someone stressing about having lost it. Not saying the exact amount for verification purposes but significant enough.
No sign of identification or way of finding the owner in the envelope except a bit of pen scribbling on the outside. Perhaps the readers might know someone who lost it?
Amount of money and colour of envelope could be the right answers to prove legit claim?

Digsite find suggests Romans role-played modern, white collar workers with 9-5 jobs, mortgages

Archaeologists have found ancient artefacts at a digsite in Gibraltar which show that citizens of the Roman Empire regularly met for dice games at which they would roleplay as twenty-first century, middle class workers with tedious jobs and mortgages.
Professor Archie Hats from the Oxford School of Archaeology spear-headed the latest excavations, and said that this find "is it exactly the kind of lame prescience we've come to expect of the empire".
"Theirs was a world of Caesars and peacocks and marble and opulence. It's only natural to think that for them, escape was the soul-crushing daily grind that defines our epoch."
The digsite made headlines when what is thought to be the world's oldest twenty-sided die was discovered in late 2012. Researches established a permanent camp on top of what they suspect was once a semi-permanent coastal outpost.
"The latest discovery is exciting because, along with the infrastructure for the game – dice, drink vessels and furniture – we also found hand-scrawled notes of unfunny office quotes to take out of context, and drawings of scenes in a hypothetical real estate agency."
"We always knew that the Romans were forward thinking, but now we know that they were forward thinking and big nerds; Neeeeeeeeeerrrrdddddssss."

Demobilisation of the armed services proceeded slowly after the war had ended (far too slowly for many disgruntled, impatient and bored soldiers). Returning men not only had to rebuild disrupted relationships with loved ones but were faced with an exhausted country, class tensions and industrial conflict, poor job prospects and a run down and depleted housing stock.
A number of recently formed ex-servicemen pressure groups took up the cause of veterans' welfare, particularly those with disabilities. The first such group was the National Association of Discharged Sailors and Soldiers formed in September 1916, which managed to get a MP returned to parliament in 1918. In 1917 the National Federation of Discharged and Demobilised Sailors and Soldiers was established under the leadership of the Liberal MP James Hogge to oppose the Military Service (Review of Exceptions) Act which made men previously discharged on medical grounds liable for reassessment for war service. Alarmed by the Federation's radical rhetoric and aggressive campaigning, the War Secretary, Lord Derby, and two Conservative MPs , Lt Col Sir John Norton-Griffiths and Col Wilfred Ashley, set up, with government backing, the Comrades of the Great War in November 1917 as a less militant, confrontational organisation, more focussed on improving pensions and employment opportunities. Formed in 1919, the National Union of Ex-Servicemen and the International Union of Ex-Servicemen pursued more socialist agendas and aligned themselves with the Labour Party. As a result the British ex-servicemen organisations were divided into rival organisations with competing political allegiances.
In late 1919, a number of measures were introduced to improve the lot of veterans, including better retraining programmes, preferential treatment by local labour exchanges and the inclusion of veterans on local war pensions committees. The War Pensions (Administrative Provisions) Act 1919 established the statutory right to a pension of 'every officer or man suffering from a disability attributable to or aggravated by naval, military, or air force service during the present war, and not due to his serious negligence or misconduct'; the statutory right was extended to widows and dependants and to nurses by the War Pensions Act of 1920.
Such measures went some way to depoliticising the plight of veterans and helped to ensure ex-servicemen's organisations in Britain were less of threat to the established order, than they were in, for example, Germany.
In Spring 1921, the British Legion was founded, with Earl Haig as its first president, out of a merger of four organisations: the Comrades of the Great War, the Association of Discharged Sailors and Soldiers, the National Federation of Discharged and Demobilised Sailors and Soldiers and the Officers' Association. The National Union Ex-Servicemen rejected the move. The Legion sought to disentangle itself from the politicised past of veterans' organisations. Two of its founding principles were to be 'democratic, non-sectarian and not affiliated to or connected directly or indirectly with any political party or political organisation' and to 'inculcate a sense of loyalty to the Crown, community and nation and to promote unity amongst all classes'. The Legion focussed its energies on financial, welfare and employment matters (see Edgar Jones and Simon Wessely, Shell Shock to PTSD (2005)).
The war necessitated a complete overhaul of the existing system for military pensions for those left with permanent (or, indeed, temporary) disabilities. More information on the provision of pensions before and after the Naval and Military Pensions Act of 1915 can be found here. A guide to surviving sources held at Surrey History Centre and elsewhere relating to the treatment and training offered to disabled veterans can be found here. The vast majority of case files kept by the Ministry of Pensions relating to World War I veterans have been destroyed. The National Archives' guide to its surviving holdings can be found here.
The employment of discharged servicemen, particularly the disabled, in the post war years was a contentious issue. In 1922, 600,000 out of the 1 million unemployed were ex-servicemen. As few servicemen had made sufficient contributions to qualify for unemployment benefit, the Unemployment Insurance Act of 1920 extended payment of benefits to the uninsured.
Employers were encouraged to employ disabled ex-servicemen under the National Scheme for Disabled Men: the names of those firms which took on such men were placed on the King's National Roll. Some philanthropists responded directly to the demand for suitable employment for those with life-changing injuries: Ashtead Potters Ltd was founded by Sir Lawrence Weaver and Lady Kathleen Weaver to provide permanent employment for disabled ex-servicemen; Sir Arthur Pearson (once of Frensham), himself blind, established St Dunstan's to retrain blinded veterans; the Ex-Services Welfare Society focussed on the enduring needs of those suffering from mental problems and in 1927 it set up the Thermega electric blanket factory in Leatherhead to provide employment and retraining for neurasthenic veterans.
Other initiatives in social reconstruction went some way to addressing the needs of veterans. Christopher Addison's Housing and Town Planning Act, 1919, launched a programme of house building by urban and rural district councils, supported by Treasury subsidies, although to some degree this fell a victim of the high cost of materials, a shortage of manpower and economic retrenchment. The Unemployment Insurance Act 1920, extended the 1911 scheme to all workers earning up to £250 a year. Surrey, like other counties, initiated a programme with government support to create small holdings for those ex-servicemen who wished to pursue a career in agriculture. The Small Holdings and Allotments Committee of the County Council bought up suitable estates, built suitable cottage accommodation, controlled rents and provided loans to set the ex-servicemen up. Again they had to retreat from their more ambitious plans because of the post war economic environment.

The Evil Dead Trilogy Part 1: 'Evil Dead' Movie Review
Five teens cross the Tennessee border to vacation in an old log cabin in the woods. The setting is immediately creepy, wasting no time with setup: the shoddy structure features a dark, dusty interior, animal skulls, lights that seem to emanate incorrectly, a mysteriously rocking swing, a broken clock, and a cellar containing some sort of evil entity. Within the first five minutes, Scotty (Richard DeManincor) descends into the inky, humid, subterraneous housing to investigate – leaving the others bewildered at his lengthy absence. Of course, he's only fooling around for the sake of a momentary scare; in the basement they discover an old recording of the previous resident's notes on his research of Sumerian relics – including the Book of the Dead, the demonic possession of his wife, and the solitary solution of bodily dismemberment.
While listening to the tapes, the fivesome accidentally unleash angry demons that begin attacking the students. Cheryl (Ellen Sandweiss) carelessly wanders into the fog and darkness and is the first to encounter the archfiend, which takes control of some gnarled vines to bind and rape her. She escapes back to the cabin, but the others are skeptical of her wild story; Ashley "Ash" Williams (Bruce Campbell) reluctantly agrees to drive Cheryl to a nearby hotel, but the bridge they originally crossed to get to the cabin has collapsed. When they make their way back to the others, Cheryl undergoes some drastic transformations, including rotting flesh, glazed-over eyes, levitation, and a throaty voice. And the rest are soon to be targeted for supernatural possession.
Eerie violin music (alternating with light-hearted romantic riffs), echoing voices, quick zooms, extremely tight close-ups, jump scares, loud noises, and tons of gore comprise The Evil Dead, a film wholeheartedly trying to be horrifying, but unfortunately mixing in the most ineffective acting and scripting. Twice Ash is trapped underneath a fallen bookshelf; blood and goop comedically splashes into Ash's open-mouthed gaze; the characters are so slow to move that it frequently appears as if the paralyzed victims are simply refusing to react; and all insist on daringly venturing into the woods alone. There's also an inconsistency in details, with the gudgeons being entranced without definition. The dialogue is incredibly unconvincing as well, counteracting the moments of fright with spoken absurdities.
But for all the elements that don't work, there are more that do – The Evil Dead is at times genuinely terrifying. Camera angles, creatures lashing out from the blackness, stop-motion animation, and screeching sound effects are quite effective. The makeup effects are spectacular, creating truly ghastly zombie-like monsters, and the utilization of gallons of blood and guts makes this one of the most bloodthirsty of all horror films. This is noteworthy considering the surprisingly low budget and lengthy production. It was originally given an NC-17 theatrical rating, and thanks to the practical effects, it remains incredibly graphic and visually alarming throughout the years – a real treat for horror enthusiasts and the first of a profitable franchise spanning two sequels, a musical adaptation, comics, toys, and more.

'Star Trek: Discovery' Finally Has a Debut Date
Coming this fall, right alongside football.
By David Grossman
After delays and setbacks, the new Star Trek show finally has a release date. Star Trek: Discovery debuts on Sunday, Sept. 24 at 8:30 p.m. ET with a special telecast on CBS.
The premiere will end the drought of 12 years, 4 months and 11 days since a Star Trek property has appeared on television, when the finale of Star Trek: Enterprise aired. In that time, three Star Trek films, dealing with a universe separate than the world of the shows, has kept the franchise's name alive, as has the rise of Netflix and Hulu, streaming services on which the property's several shows are consistently viewed.
The show has had a long road to this point, with release dates pushed back several times before. In a nod to streaming, the debut episode of the show will be the only one to actually air on television. As it airs, the premiere and the show's second episode will instantly debut on the CBS All Access streaming service. Discovery will then be released weekly on All Access for the rest of its 15-episode run, split into two parts. Outside of the United States, the show will air on Netflix.
The show, set before the original Star Trek of Spock and Kirk, has promised a diverse cast in keeping with creator Gene Rodenberry's vision of the future. Here's everything we know about what's going to appear on Discovery.

Le Muntjac indien ou Cerf aboyeur (Muntiacus muntjak) est un petit cervidé qui vit dans le sous-continent indien et en Asie du Sud-Est. Il est appelé ឈ្លូស en cambodgien, อีเก้ง ou ฟาน en siamois.

Répartition et habitat

On trouve des populations de ces cervidés au Sri Lanka, en Inde, au Népal, au Pakistan (dans le nord-est), au Bangladesh, au Bhoutan, en Chine (dans le sud), en Birmanie, en Thaïlande, au Laos, au Vietnam, au Cambodge, en Malaisie, en Indonésie (Sumatra, Bornéo, Java, Bali et d'autres îles indonésiennes).

Le muntjac indien vit dans les forêts tropicales et subtropicales à la végétation dense, dans les forêts humides, les forêts de mousson et la jungle.

Sur les pentes de l'Himalaya, cet animal monte jusqu'à plus de  d'altitude.

Description

Le cerf aboyeur est un petit cerf.

Il mesure 90-1,05 m de long (corps et tête), pour environ  au garrot de taille moyenne (de 40 à  pour les plus grands).

Il a une queue de 17-19 cm et il pèse 20-28 kg.

Son poil varie du marron-brun au noisette brillant. Son dos est marron et son ventre est blanc.

Le mâle porte des petits bois () munis d'un seul andouiller et porté sur un pivot large et poilu.

La femelle n'a pas de bois mais a à la place deux excroissances osseuses recouvertes de peau et de poils sur le sommet de sa tête.

Cet animal pousse de petits cris proche d'un aboiement.

Il est solitaire et nocturne. Il dort le jour dans les fourrés, seul, en couple ou en petite famille ; il sort au crépuscule pour chercher de la nourriture et est actif toute la nuit.

Il marque son territoire avec la sécrétion d'une glande du menton.

Le munjak indien est le mammifère ayant le plus petit nombre de chromosomes de notre planète (trois paires).

Alimentation
Le muntjac indien est omnivore.

Il se nourrit d'herbes, de lierres, de feuilles, d'écorces, de buissons épineux, de racines, de fruits mais aussi d'œufs d'oiseaux et de petits animaux à sang chaud.

Reproduction
Les cerfs aboyeurs sont polygames.

La saison des amours a lieu dans le parc national de Khao Yai en Thaïlande en décembre et janvier.

Les mâles pendant la période de rut s'affronte à coups de dents (canines) plutôt qu'à coups de bois pour conquérir un harem de femelles.

Dès leur deuxième année les femelles sont fécondes. La gestation dure de six à sept mois. Les biches n'ont qu'un seul petit à la fois (parfois des jumeaux). Le jeune faon quitte sa mère au bout d'environ six mois.

Le cerf aboyeur et l'homme
Cet animal est chassé pour sa viande et sa peau en Asie du Sud et en Asie du Sud-Est. Sa chair tendre est très appréciée.

Taxonomie
Groves a en 2003 séparé les populations de M. muntjak en deux espèces indépendantes : les animaux des îles de Malaisie et d'Indonésie conservant le nom de M. muntjak, les animaux du continent devenant une nouvelle espèce : Muntiacus vaginalis. Cette position avait déjà été proposée par le même auteur avec Grubb en 1990.

Toutefois, cette séparation en deux espèces est considérée par l'IUCN comme « repos[ant] sur très peu de preuves ». D'autres travaux sont donc encore nécessaires pour valider cette classification.

It's said that 147e:1002 is supported by fingerprint-gui on the official website.
So, I'm curious about the situation.
Anybody knows?
P.S: I'm using gentoo, but I think this problem may not have anything to do with distribution since I compiled the source from official site.

A: I have the same device in my System 76 Serval. fprint_demo, fingerprint-gui, fingerprint-identifier will only recognise my fingerprint reader when I run them with gksudo.
I suspect it needs a udev rule created for it in order to run properly.

A: I have the exact same fingerprint reader (147e:1002 Upek unknown device) and have the problem as you've described - that it does not recognise the device.
Despite this, I've found that fingerprint GUI still works - that you can scan in your fingerprint and use it as the program intended, although it is currently not officially supported by fprint. You have to install libbsapi driver.


Missing my natural tan from Spain and the sun. Time to put away my beloved Asos sandals and bring the docs back out. Winter is coming and it's also back to reality now! I started third year only a week ago and already I have so much to do. So I apologise for the last of blog posts recently and for the next few months. It's scary to think in just a few months university will be over altogether. I still feel like a first year!


And Panteleon was like a lion on his way to the knife.
The Holy Martyrs Haralambos and Panteleon with their companions suffered martyrdom for Christ. Their synaxis was celebrated in their Martyrium at the Deuteron district of Constantinople.


We love a good mashup between two unlikely vehicles. And this is a good one. The best part is it's actually functional AND up for sale! Robert Falck out of British Columbia built this beast that is a hybrid of aa 1989 Cadillac Brougham limo and an old Bombardier SV250 Skidozer. It was originally built for a local film being produced in Vancouver but is now up for sale for the low price of $6,000. He fabricated a custom ladder frame out of square-tubed steel to attach the base from an older Bombardier SV250 Skidozer and the body from a 1989 Cadillac limo. Front skis attach to a robust rack-and-pinion steering system aided by a power steering cooler. A small-block Chevrolet V-8 engine sends power through a TH350 three-speed automatic to a one-ton truck axle. If you're from around there and know what movie this is in – let us know!

Rock Review – Caned By Nod (Cody Jinks) – "None The Wiser"
Cody Jinks knows his way around metal music, and he proves that with None The Wiser. This isn't some lark, though he's also not launching the Caned By Nod project as replacement for country, or trying to pass it off as country as some pop and rock acts do. It's a passion project.

70 Years Ago, Hank Williams Records 'Tear In My Beer' & it Disappears
On this night in 1951 when Hank found the time to record the demo for "Tear In My Beer," and 40 years later when it became a big hit in country, it proved that a good song with a simple sentiment can often withstand the ultimate test of time, and be entered into eternal cultural relevance.

IV and the Strange Band Debut "Son of Sin"

When the country music underground was really taking form in the late 90's and early 2000's behind artists like Wayne "The Train" Hancock, Dale Watson, and Hank Williams III, another big name with a sound that hearkened back to the classic era of country and had fans raving was Joey Allcorn.

Operation Pirate
This was a British and Canadian training exercise for the assault techniques for 'Overlord' in Studland Bay, England (17/19 October 1943).
The formation selected for the first full-scale test of the newly developed tactics was Major General R. F. L. Keller's Canadian 3rd Division in co-operation with the ships of Force 'J' and the aircraft of the RAF's Nos 11 and 83 Groups. The trial's object was 'to exercise the forces of all three Services in their functions during a major combined operation', and the plan included embarkation, assault against a heavily defended beach, the work of the 'Turn Round Control' organisation that controlled shipping during the build-up phase, and the rapid construction of an airfield in the bridgehead.
Particularly vital was the fire plan for the assault, which was the subject of a detailed memorandum by Lieutenant General H. D. G. Crerar, commanding the Canadian 1st Army. Crerar sent the plan to Keller on 30 August, and the plan included most of the elements that had emerged from the operations and studies of the last few months: naval bombardment (destroyer gunfire, supplemented by rocket fire and 'Hedgerows' during the final approach, and close support craft carrying tanks which beached in the first wave to engage the beach defences), air bombardment (attacks by medium and light bombers before the landings, plus cannon and rocket attacks by fighters), and a 'beach barrage' by two field regiments of army artillery firing from tank landing craft.
'Pirate' was scheduled for 17 October, but the exercise was disrupted by poor weather in the opening stage, which required a change in the general plan and led to the premature termination of the exercise on 19 October.
A major landmark, not only in the training of the 3rd Division but also in the development of the assault tactics for 'Overlord' as a whole, 'Pirate' involved an assault delivered by Brigadier H. W. Foster's 7th Brigade, with the build-up phase undertaken by the rest of the 3rd Division and attached troops. The execution of the exercise was far from perfect. Apart from the fact that adverse weather conditions forced the abandonment of the intended 'Turn Round Control' and build-up phase entirely and also led to cancellation of the RAF bomber effort, the shooting by the 3rd Division's artillery while seaborne did not turn out well, the fire falling several hundred yards short in the opening stages. This was the less surprising as the guns used were not self-propelled weapons on tank chassis but wheeled guns lashed to the decks of the tank landing craft.
Fog on inland airfields prevented the smoke-laying and bombing aircraft taking off and, with the exception of the provision of air cover to the convoy at sea and dummy attacks by Hawker Typhoon fighter-bombers against pre-arranged targets on the beaches, the designated air support plan was not carried out.
In spite of these and other problems, the exercise was judged to have been a success, and the conclusion of the Keller and his staff was that the 'Combined Fire Plan of RN, RAF and Army proved itself to be workable and feasible, subject of course to further training based on the detailed lessons learned', and that it had been shown that army artillery while seaborne could carry out a successful 'area shoot'. 'Hedgerow' and AVRE vehicles had done their work well. It appeared that a firm foundation now existed for an assault plan, and in succeeding exercises Force 'J' and the 3rd Division confirmed the soundness of the conclusions drawn from 'Pirate'.

Then I started seeing ads from SamCart, so that I signed up for their email list. I received a couple of emails from them hyping their service up, so I decided to give it a shot.
SamCart is a checkout platform that Features conversion-optimized checkout templates together with one-click upsell, arrange bump, payment and subscription strategy capacities that are intended to optimize profits.
If you are someone that wants to establish a shopping cart SamCart is for you. You are able to wake up and running in under thirty minutes. I set all my things up in about twenty five minutes, but that's probably because I watched a YouTube videos about it ahead.
The largest reason that SamCart has been able to Because they provide numerous features that help online retailers make more cash, grow is. Whether you're running an e-commerce store or selling info products, these attributes will help you make more money and have SamCart pay for itself fairly quickly.
SamCart lets you create your personal army of affiliates which will sell your products for you together with the Affiliate Center. SamCart automatically creates an Affiliate Signup page for you – that's where others may apply to promote your merchandise.
You'll get a link for this page, so you may send it out to prospective affiliates, place it on your website, or send it out to your email list. Whenever my subscribers go several months without anything from me, I invite them to become affiliates. Hey, if they are not buying anything, it is still a way for me to gain from them.
When a potential affiliate fills your program, they'll be shown a message which their account is"pending approval". When that happens, you'll find a notification that they implemented via email. It'll also include buttons to accept or reject the individual's application. If you'd like you may set it up to automatically accept affiliates.
SamCart's default affiliate commission is 50%. But this payout to anything you desire can be customized by you. You can pay your affiliates a flat rate commission (a set dollar amount per purchase ) or a percentage. I have had a lot of success by raising the affiliate payout for top-performing affiliates to give them an incentive to sell even more.
Among the coolest things about SamCart is they have 18 professionally designed templates that are demonstrated to convert. I really don't think the templates ALL are that great, but I really do love most of them. My favourite is the template that is classic.
The apparent big advantage here is that the templates are used by other proven marketers, so you can stay away from the countless hours of designing and testing your own pages.
All of the templates have trust components like reviews, warranties, and security reassurances that provide your clients the peace of mind they will need to enhance your conversions.
As soon as you pick your checkout page, you can easily customize it by changing the colours of the header, footer, buttons, etc.. You might even pick the fields that you would like to add and you can add custom bullet points to describe the product your client is purchasing (I've discovered bullet points to be especially helpful, which is why you see them all of my earnings pages).
I do a good deal of advertising on Google AdWords, where a lot of my traffic comes from cellular. I discovered that at a higher speed, which meant I flushed my advertisement spend down the bathroom, folks were left with my old cart. SamCart assisted my increase my conversions.
Plus, they have a cool"sandbox" mode, which enables you make sure everything is working before going live with your product. With my old cart, test it and I actually had to publish everything. I hated doing that. With SamCart, I will test obligations without going live and without charging your credit card (and messing up your stats).
Once I told my friends that I was composing a SamCart review, they told me that I must stress how awesome their click upsells are, and I concur.
If you are selling online and you aren't offering upsells, you are leaving a lot of money on the table. In reality, back in 2006, Amazon reported that 35 percent of its revenues were from its own efforts that were upselling. Do not you think it deserves your consideration if Amazon is making that much money from it?
An upsell is a strategy that helps you increase your average order value. You do not even know it and probably experience upsells all the time. It's there as an upsell for people that do not want to worry about maintenance, although you don't HAVE to get the extended warranty for your vehicle. Restaurants sure like to offer it, although you do not need to get dessert after dinner.
Continuing with the dessert case, those small $8 cakes are not a massive amount of money, but if you are the restaurant selling tons of these each night, the money adds up.
This attribute is unique because it provides you the ability to add several different payment options onto a single checkout page. For my 997 online course, Teachable is used by me, and they do not offer this feature. When a customer wants the payment program I have to have checkout pages. I WISH I could use SamCart because of that.
The 1 page voucher takes multiple payments into a whole new level because it keeps traffic on the page while they decide how to cover. You realize how important it is to keep your traffic on the page if you've ever sold anything online.
Cross-selling is a way to sell products that are related to the one the client already owns. A cross-sell would be gas or car insurance if a client purchases a vehicle from you.
You might be familiar with this as bundling. When you package the principal merchandise and auxiliary products you are able to raise your profits. McDonald's does so well by purchasing fries and beverages with their burgers.
When I started selling subscription products on the internet, I had been naive enough to think that everybody would pay in time, every time. I figured that if I was good enough to cover my bills and honor my obligations, so would everybody else.
Boy, was I naive. Figuring out that there are some real losers online. Individuals who decline cancel credit cards to get out of making payments or charges. Your subscription income is gone usually once this occurs. Barring any legal action (like sending a demand letter… if you've got the client's address) you can not get your cash. Sad.
But today with SamCart, your subscriptions have been safeguarded from declined payments and expired credit cards. Every time a payment fails, SamCart sends your client an email on your behalf – the email has a link where clients can upgrade the payment they have on file, directly from their inbox. This means that you don't need to waste your time hounding your clients down.
Is not it bizarre that people talk about split testing their revenue webpages, their sites that are supersized, their email subject lines, and even more… but they don't ever talk about testing their checkout page?
If you figure that a large part of your potential clients are abandoning your checkout site, don't you think that a half-decent split evaluation could let you get yet another customer??
Luckily, SamCart offers the capacity to conduct live split tests. This is wonderful. You may effectively double your sales if you have a abandonment rate and your snags you ONE customer. Yes, DOUBLE SALES. Just like this.
SamCart enables you to change almost any setting you want, so you can test any variation that tickles your fancy. It's possible to alter the template, try a different warranty (I've found that the more, the greater ), eliminate some fields (I've discovered the less, the greater ), and more.
As soon as you have your variants created, SamCart mechanically tests between your own variations. You do not need to do anything except watch the results roll in. You can head over to the"AB Test" part from the item's settings to see how the variations are doing. As soon as you find a winner, SamCart allows you to easily disable the loser.
The one thing you can't split-test using SamCart is the product's price. Conduct a test between these two products and you'll have to create two products, if you want to do that.
Once it comes to A/B analyzing, experience tells me that you should test the major stuff first (like entirely different templates) and then work your way down to the minute details. Oh, and wait until you've got a sample size before you call it.
Depending on what study you read, 80% of individuals That"add to cart" on your website will abandon that cart. If you can get a little amount of those people to convert, then you will add a substantial amount of cash.
SamCart's whole value proposition is their checkout site templates have been tested to the gills and they have been proven to convert more compared to their competitors. You ought to make sure you're maximizing your conversions, if you sell things online, and SamCart can help you do that.
Plus, many checkout pages aren't designed to maximize the amount of profit which you get from each sell. Things like upsells and order lumps help you include more profit.
For instance, I sell a $97 PDF on my website. I would not have the ability to add an upsell if I used a checkout form. But since I provide an upsell, roughly one out of every 3 individuals take my upsell offer .
Because of this one simple feature, I am adding an average of $20 to every single order of that product. That's like giving myself more than a 20% raise by having that attribute. Which means I can spend an additional $20 on advertisements to acquire a customer and develop my business.
My favorite SamCart feature is hands-down the Customer and Great training service they provide. They have a lot of videos in what is called their"Knowledge Base" that teaches you how you can use their applications (although it's already fairly simple ) and they supply a good deal of education on the best way best to make more money if you are selling online.
I didn't get a Opportunity to integrate SamCart using a Lot of tools, just because I do not use that many. I use mainly utilize Stripe, Drip, PayPal and OptinMonster.
Interested in learning more about OptinMonster? Check out my review here. I wrote an overview of that too if you are interested in knowing more about Drip.
SamCart allows you to seamlessly sync with a lot of tools, such as email, marketing automation, registration, and payment processing. It was super easy for me to incorporate my system together with SamCart and I envision it would be the same for the majority of people out there.
Even SamCart is an absolute steal with the features they give you. I've found that the Fundamental is good enough but you want to get the plan if you're doing a lot of business on the internet.
Also remember that if you're wanting to save some cash, they give you a discount if you pay yearly. I recommend that you take advantage of their free trial (to make sure it's definitely suitable for you) then paying yearly to save money. If you pay yearly, the Pro program is $888 per year (that saves you $300) and the Premium plan is $1,788 per year (which saves you $600).


ǃKheis is an administrative area in the ZF Mgcawu District of Northern Cape in South Africa. ǃKheis is a Khoi name meaning "a place where you live, or a home". The municipality is named in recognition of the Khoi people who were the first permanent dwellers of the area.
The municipal council consists of seven members elected by mixed-member proportional representation. Four councillors are elected by first-past-the-post voting in four wards, while the remaining three are chosen from party lists so that the total number of party representatives is proportional to the number of votes received. In the election of 3 August 2016 the African National Congress (ANC) won a majority of four seats on the council.
