Why are you afraid to join Stampin' Up!? What excuses have you voiced? I've heard it all and I've SAID it all! Maybe you think there is a catch! Or, you've said that you don't want to be a sales person… I couldn't do this! It's too good of a deal, there MUST be a catch!
Why haven't you joined the Sunny Craftin' Crew during Sale-A-Bration?
I am sad that the BEST opportunity THIS year is coming to an end. I have never regretted joining Stampin' Up! as a demonstrator during Sale-A-Bration. My plan was to enjoy the benefits as a hobby demonstrator while my husband and I were on the adoption waitlist. I joined for the discount!
Little did I know that I would still be with Stampin' Up! as a demonstrator 9 years later (although, officially this is my 5th anniversary as I dropped for 4 days then re-signed to be under a different upline after my upline, her upline and the upline above her dropped). Being part of Stampin' Up! has helped me make it through cancer treatments, meet new people around the world and develop some amazing friendships. I love traveling and meeting up with other demonstrators.
Join as a Hobbyist… celebrate the FUN!
Why not join my fun, wonderful team! It's an amazing business opportunity but it's also great for the hobbyist!
TIME is RUNNING OUT! There are only 5 DAY remaining to get this amazing SPECIAL… THIS is NOT a gimmick! There are NO strings attached.
Join for the fun and be part of a wonderful, inspiring crafty community!
Don't like it! You can either drop by not meeting the quarterly minimums or you can formally resign.
BUT… you get to keep everything without any penalties.
BUT… I NEED ONE person to join before the end of Sale-A-Bration on March 31st. YOU would be helping me out as I try to earn the Greek Isle Cruise!
During Sale-a-Bration, you earn 2 free stamp sets from the ANNUAL or OCCASIONS CATALOG (your choice) at any price. That's a HUGE bonus! A potential value of $101.00 – FREE!
You have access to sneak peeks and early product releases. (Shhh… you could see the NEW Annual Catalog in just 2 WEEKS).
Now, don't walk… RUN and join my Stampin' Up! team today and experience the fun!
I would love to introduce you to join Stampin' Up! and the Sunny Craftin' Crew! I love the CREW! This is an AMAZING opportunity for you to join or re-join. If you have questions, please email me. I'm happy to set up a call to chat with you about this amazing opportunity. Fill out the Contact Form Below or better yet, JOIN NOW!
Again, when you join my team you also help me out! I'm really trying to earn my FIRST incentive trip especially since this is the trip where every person in my family would be celebrating milestone birthdays! Mike and I will be celebrating the BIG 5 – OH (eek!) and Caleb would be celebrating a double-digit birthday as he turns 10 (double EEK)!

How Innovation in Payments Can Drive Local Marketing
August 8, 2014 August 11, 2014 by Steven Jacobs
In December 2011, Seth Priebatsch laid out a dire vision for the future of the payments industry. In a post in Inc., the founder of LevelUp argued that the Internet would eventually drive the cost of moving money, the interchange, to zero, hollowing out a $50 billion payment processing industry in the same way that the web had broken apart the music, news, and media businesses the decade prior.
Three years later, and the payments revolt he foresaw is clearly underway — and yet, it remains more of a revolution than an evolution. A host of technology companies now find themselves battling over an industry which they admittedly seek to destroy, without a proven revenue model to fill the void left by falling interchange rates: Square continues to bleed cash, Clinkle has had a host of problems, and Google has thrown in the towel, for now.
Today, Priebatsch remains optimistic. LevelUp, has reduced the interchange it charges to merchants to under 2%, largely by bundling payments into batches and avoiding the flat fee paid on each transaction. Street Fight caught up with Priebatsch recently to talk about the state of the payments revolution, and why he thinks transaction data is the foundation of the next big wave of innovation in the marketing industry.
Without interchange, the revenue stream in the payments industry will be alienated from its product. Any concerns?
We are a payments company in exactly the same way that Google is a search engine, and Facebook is a social network. Facebook is an ad network masquerading as social network that is using social networking tools to build what they believe is the best form of advertising: socially-contextual advertising. Google is an advertising network that uses search to get intent data to build what they believe is the best advertising. And LevelUp is an ad network that gives away payments as cheap as possible so we can get transaction data, which we believe is the best form of advertising.
What impact do you see this uncoupling of product and revenue model having on the way the industry will grow?
When I look at payments as an ad-supported business, I think it's the best place [the payments industry] could end up. That means it can be free. That means everyone can ride on the rails for free. And its important to realize that it's not a new form of advertising in the world: coupons already exist, loyalty programs already exist, Groupons already exist. What we're doing is making that more efficient, and, as a side benefit, simplifying the advertising infrastructure so that payment components can be given away for free.
There's been concern among some that the concept of a marketing-subsidized technology industry is dangerous and unstable. Do you worry about the same thing with payments?
I don't think it poses a long-term risk to society — payments is already fairly ad-supported as it stands, and advertising does not necessarily corrupt a product. Google, for example, hasn't corrupted search because it has an ad-influence. Sure, there's lots of conspiratorial theories but it works well. Facebook, for all its flaws, has created a better way for humanity to connect with each other. If social networking was a paid service, I do not think any single service would have hit the scale to bring the 1.5 billion people together digitally. That's the same with payments.
A lot of folks in the technology industry pointed to American Express as an example of the type of model that could work in the future. What's good about American Express, and where have they gone awry?
One thing American Express has done well is that they have build a robust app network. But they have failed at bringing any value to the merchants. There's this idea that because you're accepting AmEx, you're getting access to a new customer base — but that's not really true. If, as a consumer, you show up to a business that doesn't take American Express, it's not going to deter you from buying there.
I just don't believe that that is a viable value proposition anymore. I feel like American Express lost their way. Initially, they drove value to merchants. By centralizing their rewards structure, and allowing points accrued at one merchant to be spent on another, it stopped being valuable to the merchant. But if you decentralized that structure, and allow each merchant to control its own rewards, it starts to look like a next-generation payments network.
It's been a crazy last three years in payments. What do the next few years have in store?
It appears to be thinning out quite a bit. Google Wallet has faded away and that was really our nightmare scenario: they've got some of the brightest engineers in the world; they're an advertising company; and they get how it all fits together. Then there's Isis, which in addition to the branding issues, its core product isn't working. Square Wallet got shut down. PayPal is still doing some good work. Clickle turned out to be a bust. Then Belly and Fivestars sort of faded away. The market is a lot more open than it was a year-and-a-half ago.

22nd International Conference on Circuits, Systems, Communications and Computers (CSCC 2018)
Validation of Seasonal ARIMA Models on Road Traffic Noise Measurements

The Time Series Analysis (TSA) technique is largely used in economics and related field, to understand the slope of a given univariate dataset and to predict its future behaviour. The Seasonal AutoRegressive Integrated Moving Average (SARIMA) models are a class of TSA models that, based on the periodicity observed in the series, build a predictive function that can extend the forecast to a given number of future periods. In this paper, these techniques are applied to a dataset of equivalent sound levels, measured in an urban environment. The periodic pattern will evidence a strong influence of human activities (in particular road traffic) on the noise observed. All the three models will exploit the seasonality of the series and will be calibrated on a partial dataset of 800 data. Once the parameters of the models will be evaluated, all the forecasting functions will be tested and validated on a dataset not used before. The performances of all the models will be evaluated in terms of errors values and distributions, such as introducing some error indexes that explain the peculiar features of the models results.

Philosophy Of Freedom By Plato And Karl Marx
Imagine this, you stand at the very edge of a beach. You can feel the sun warming your shoulders, the wind hums softly, and the ocean is so clear a school of fish is visible dancing in the waters. You take a step forward letting the ocean engulf you, finally the waters carry your body, you float, nothing but you and the ocean. That's why I love the sea so much, it exudes a feeling of wonderment, of liberty, makes you think everything is possible like you can do anything. But that's not really freedom, it's just what we imagine it must feel like as gravity doesn't bind us to the ground and we float in the water.
So, then what is freedom? According to The Institute of Ethics and Emerging Technologies, freedom … mean(s) the right to do as one pleases—to think, believe, speak, worship (or not worship), move about, gather, and generally act as you choose—but only until your choices start to infringe on another person's freedom. (Treder). An aspect of Freedom is to express one's ideas without fear of repercussions from others, but what does the liberty to express an opinion mean if we don't have a way of sharing it with the rest, that is Freedom of Press. And, in a way, that's the same kind of thinking that philosophers like Plato and Karl Marx shared. In this essay I will be going over what has become of our traditional definition of freedom of press, what did Plato and Marx thought constituted to be free, how do their theories differ from what is considered a traditional view today and how their ideas though centuries apart, coincide with one another.
Nowadays most of us live in democratic nations, and as such we tend to consider the democratic definition of freedom as our favorite to follow, this means that to most individuals freedom is, as aforementioned, when every and each of us are equally allowed by no one else but ourselves to do what we want. Straightforwardly freedom of press constitutes to project our free thoughts into a written format to then share them with the public. We've put so much value into this idea that it's not only the First Amendment of the United States Constitution, but it's written as one of our human rights, As the Universal Declaration of Human Rights states "Everyone has the right to freedom of opinion and expression; this right includes freedom to hold opinions without interference and to seek, receive and impart information and ideas through any media and regardless of frontiers" (UN General Assembly art. 19). Seeing how highly we've place this right it's even more strange to find just how often we overstep it. Teenage journalists being censored by their school officials for writing of protests, sexuality, and school news in their high school's newspapers (Peiser), a judge that ordered the Los Angeles Times to delete a published article about a case that had been already on public records (Medina). And president Trump refusing to acknowledge CNN journalists while calling them "fake news" (Grynbaum) and all these happened throughout this month. With new advances the modern era gives us the option to express ourselves in many ways, technology has become a tool which has the prospect to open many doors, unfortunately it has the tools to shut them too. We like to have all these rights and privileges that protect our individualism but as soon as we feel threatened by another's assertion of the same right we are quick to shut them down, more than a new concept this is a tradition the government in power has always practiced, philosophers like Karl Marx theorized that the bourgeoise's blatant tyranny was the responsible for the proletariat's economic, and as a result, journalistic oppression. To understand where Marx is coming from we need to first stablish what was freedom for him.
For Marx freedom was a goal to be attained, something to strive for as we separate from capitalism, since as we are, all of a person's value fell upon their economic ministration to the wealth of the bourgeoise. For Marx capitalism administrated every aspect of our lives, he theorizes that the proletariat society worked tirelessly in meaningless jobs that not only dwarfed their individualism and alienated the workers from their work but "…It serves to profit the bourgeoisie, who are owners of the proletariat's labour and deprive them of the means for self-cultivation…" (Weng). Marx believed that to be truly free people should have the option to see themselves in their work and cultivate themselves. His whole battle with the bourgeoise transfers into his ideology of freedom of press where he argues against censorship supporting the individual thought and the need to express our ideals. How does he change it from the traditional view AND what do you want to say about those changes His views on freedom in general don't clash with todays point of view but they don't necessarily match that much either.
We believe that in doing what we want with how we think of freedom but when we think of that it isn't necessarily to go against the government, sure not all of us agree completely with the ones in charge and some laws but when we think of freedom it isn't necessarily to go against the government. Now today's views on freedom of speech, what we now consider traditional, may differ from Plato's idea of freedom, but that doesn't mean its completely warped.
Plato's Freedom of Press
Plato had a low regard for what we consider "freedom" he believed that democracy was bogus and that people who had a weaker mind should be at the mercy of the people who are stronger. How does he change it from the traditional view AND what do you want to say about those changes How did their ideas coincide Citations Treder, Mike. "The Meaning of Freedom."

4helix+ is a project aimed at stimulating, coaching and funding innovation within the Blue Growth sectors in the Mediterranean (MED) area. The project intends to improve the gap between the eight Mediterranean regional maritime clusters on the one hand, and within their respective four helixes on the other. This is envisaged to be achieved through an open source, knowledge sharing and community-based approach, resulting from cooperation with so-called 'new innovation agents' and cultural and creative industries.
The 4helix+ project will upgrade transnational innovation process in both traditional and emerging Blue sectors in the eight MED regions, by establishing and organizing a cyber space, boot-camps, a transnational brokerage event, regional info days, and an innovation voucher scheme. Project's cyber space will enable a matchmaking environment between the Blue MSMEs/START-UPs, on one side, and 'new innovation agents' (fablabs, co-working spaces, creative hubs, etc.) and cultural and creative industries (high-skilled companies, RDI centres, etc.) on the other.
The 4helix+ will award EUR 480.000 to at least 48 Blue sector projects under its Innovation Voucher Scheme. With its transnational partnership network and objectives, the project will contribute to relevant EU macro-regional strategies and innovation policies.
The project is funded under the Interreg MED Programme and its implementation period goes from 1 February 2018 until 31 July 2020. Its Kick Off and first Steering Committee meeting is scheduled in Rome on 16-17 April 2018.

Auckland University hates the environment
The University of Auckland's (UoA) governing council has opted out of voting on a motion that would have urged their foundation to divest from fossil fuels.
Since December last year UoA has been under pressure from students, staff, and alumni to divest from coal, oil, and gas companies that are acknowledged as key contributors to climate change.
AUSA President Will Matthews' divestment motion had the support of ten student associations and 3000 petitioners. Matthews believes it was well in line with the university's Strategic Plan, which states that they "cannot plunder the future to pay for the present."
Matthews said that if UoA takes climate change seriously "it should put its money where its mouth is and divest from fossil fuel industries."
Fossil Free UoA—the group who initiated conversations surrounding the university's investments in fossil fuel companies—is also disappointed with the non-vote.
Spokesperson Alex Johnstone said that "by not even voting on whether to urge the foundation to divest, the university council has said it is ok for the foundation to keep fuelling climate change through its investments."
Victoria University divested from fossil fuel investments in 2014, as did Otago University.

The Student Government Association (SGA) has announced three candidates for president on the ballot for the upcoming year. One of them, junior education major Courtney Covington, through extra-curriculars and extensive community outreach, has the qualifications for the position.
Wanting to branch out and break out of his shell, Covington joined SGA with the idea that working with like-minded individuals who want to make an effective and lasting change in the community would benefit him.
"So many people say they want to make a change, but won't take initiative," Covington said.
While the SGA features a more political and professional landscape for students that take part, Covington was no stranger to student government positions.
In high school, he served in the student government. There, he would organize such events like homecoming dances for students to enjoy. This position, however, did not give him the platform to be an effective voice for the student body, as there were many limitations. These limitations do not translate to the APSU student government, where Covington feels he is constantly challenged to better himself for the campus community through legislation he can create.
SGA is not the only place that Covington takes pride in being part of on campus. He is currently a Resident Assistant on campus, this being the first year he has served this role.
What he says he finds most intriguing and special about being a resident's assistant is the diversity in the students he interacts with daily.
Similarly, Covington is part of the African-American male mentoring program titled "achievers and scholars," a program of the Wilbur N. Daniel African American Cultural Center. Through the mentoring program, he, as well as those involved, have been able to listen to key influential speakers with experience. Lastly, he works to expand the Mount Zion church in Nashville through campus ministry.
Covington has a strong community outreach goal. He has volunteered many times at the Mana Café packaging food for family and serving late night dinners.
Covington also spearheaded a project he is particularly proud of: Cards for Jacob. This project took place in November of last year. All that young Jacob wanted for Christmas were Christmas cards. After staying in the hospital with a likely chance of not making it to Christmas due to his battle with cancer, Jacob was pleasantly surprised on Thanksgiving with the cards Covington managed to get for him, with the help of many other kind individuals. Jacob died some time later.
Covington has passed three pieces of legislation at the beginning of this semester, and he said he is always thinking of future legislations.
Arguing there is always room for improvement, Covington talks to students to get their input. He said it is important for him to be as invested in knowing the student body as it is to be invested in his work for them.
He is confident that all his prior work brought him to this moment, and all his current work will bring him to new heights.

The Chatter Podcast: Spying in the NFL with Kevin Bryant
By David Priess
You don't have to look very far under the surface of the average game in the National Football League to find cloak-and-dagger machinations worthy of governmental intelligence agencies. During the past several decades, teams have used both myriad spying tactics to gain extra advantages and extensive counterintelligence techniques to thwart them. The line between traditional espionage and NFL methods is surprisingly thin.
David Priess chatted with author Kevin Bryant about historical and present-day examples of it all, building on Kevin's new book, "Spies on the Sidelines: The High-Stakes World of NFL Espionage." They discussed known cases of spying before and during the draft, extraordinary means of collecting information about opposing teams' practices and playbooks, common countermeasures of security officers employed by various teams, attempts to intercept signals and play calls, electronic interference with headset communications, locker room spies, evolving league rules about dirty tricks, and the ethics of it all. And, of course, a conversation about covert action in the NFL wouldn't be complete without attention to the recent twin scandals involving the New England Patriots, Spygate and Deflategate.
Chatter is a production of Lawfare and Goat Rodeo. This episode was produced by David Priess, with editing by Cara Shillenn. Podcast theme by David Priess, featuring music created using Groovepad. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

For most, the Easter weekend is an opportunity to spend time with family, enjoy some fantastic chocolaty treats and relax. However, the Easter weekend has much more to it than that.
After completing some research – Easter is the oldest festival within the Christian Church and represents the resurrection of Christ. Many Christians will celebrate the Easter weekend by attending Church and spending time with family instead of exchanging Chocolate coated eggs.
However, we are here to give you some support and advice on moving home during the Easter period. We will look to cover the following point.
As it is a bank holiday weekend – the availability of your most important tools may well become limited. Simply because you're suddenly free doesn't necessarily mean that everything else will be able to fall into place.
Many stores, both convenience and retail will probably be closed, or at least limited to reduced opening hours.
If you intend on moving property over Easter, make sure that you have planned everything well in advance. Contact the existing owners and make sure that they are available – they may have decided to visit family for the weekend or have a holiday planned during the Easter break.
Removal companies in London may well be limited too. This could make moving your items more difficult. You would then be 100% reliant on yourself, your transport and any help that family and friends can provide.
When you move home, there are many elements that need to drop into place to make everything run smoothly. Unfortunately, 90% of the time these elements never come together when you want them to.
As a result, trying to get all of these contacts and elements to collaborate over an Easter weekend will be extremely difficult. Estate agents, solicitors, surveyors, homeowners, mortgage consultants and everyone else involved in the move will nee to be available. As the Easter weekend is a bank holiday, some, if not all of these professionals will likely be unavailable.
We would advise you to get prepared for your move during the Easter break – but try not to get your hopes hanging on a set moving in date. It will be much easier if you move to your new home during a standard weekend.
You may even want to consider hiring a man and van in London to help move your items during the week as rates tend to become slightly cheaper, allowing you to save a little cash.
At the very best of times, traffic in London and other major cities is an absolute nightmare. A simple 20 minute journey can end up taking hours if you are in the wrong place at the wrong time.
Now I am not too sure about you – but I wouldn't want to be lugging my possessions to and from a new home on the Tube. It's hot, cramped and can be extremely uncomfortable and knowing most peoples luck – there will probably be a strike to battle with too!
Even through hiring a removals agency to help you, things will be tricky. The solution? Don't bother. Be patient and wait for a different weekend that isn't a bank holiday on both the Friday and Monday.
If you are able to have a confirmed moving date over the Easter weekend, firstly – congratulations, it's not easily achieved and secondly, be cautious of the additional charges that may come with it.
Removal companies and transportation services can become nothing short of extortionate, especially public transportation such as busses, taxi cabs and trains.
Plan your journey and moving times in advance. If you do end up using a removal company – see if they would be available during the mornings – the earlier the better really. This will help you to miss out on major traffic as people start going away for the weekend and can help you have everything moved much quicker.
Moving at the best of times is hard work and exhausting. However, moving over the Easter weekend seems to add even more chaos to the mix, as a number of different factors tend to come into play.
The availability of the current homeowners will be more difficult to work with. If you cannot contact them and confirm a date, then unfortunately, there is not much that can be done.
A number of contacts will likely be unavailable. Your key contacts such as mortgage consultants and solicitors will need to be easily contactable which will always be tricky over a bank holiday weekend.
Be wary of the additional costs of public transportation and trade services. Not all will be the same of course, however, some rogue traders will try to make some quick cash. Make sure that you keep your whit's about you.


Chelsea will launch a last-minute bid to sign Watford midfielder Abdoulaye Doucoure on transfer deadline day, reports say.
The Blues are reeling after their shocking 4-0 loss to Bournemouth on Tuesday night, with Maurizio Sarri insisting again and again he needs a replacement for the departed Cesc Fabregas.
Chelsea were thought to be closing in on a replacement, but deals for Serie A star Nicolo Barella and Zenit Saint Petersburg midfielder Leandro Paredes fell through, with the latter joining Paris Saint-Germain.
Doucoure's form has attracted the attention of some big clubs and the Mirror claim Chelsea are massive fans of the 26-year-old.
Watford were alarmed by Doucoure's comments earlier this month which revealed the Frenchman had ambitions to play for the likes of PSG one day.
The window closes at 11pm tonight and Watford have Doucoure tied down at the club with a contract until 2023.
But Doucoure's desire to play for a big club might help Chelsea, as he revealed his joy at being linked with PSG.
'PSG holds an important place in my heart,' Doucoure said.
'They already contacted me, but I wanted to move to England at the time.
'Hearing that such clubs are interested in you, it's a pleasure.

Q: Use Excel Macro in a different Sheet I want to create a Menu-sheet from where I can start different macros for different sheets. But the code doesn't work when i start is from a differet sheet. The code only works correctly when I start it from the "1. Stock & Demand" sheet
Sub NeuerTag()

'Abfrage ob der Tag eingefügt werden soll, No = QUIT'
If MsgBox("Möchtest du die Tabelle vorbereiten?", vbYesNo) = vbNo Then Exit Sub

'Kopiert die letzten 3 Spalten des Tabellenblattes'
With Sheets("1. Stock & Demand")
Lastcol = Cells(1, Columns.Count).End(xlToLeft).Column
Columns(Lastcol - 1).Resize(, 1).Select

With Sheets("1. Stock & Demand")
Lastcol = Cells(1, Columns.Count).End(xlToLeft).Column
Columns(Lastcol - 3).Resize(, 1).PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValues

End With
End With

End Sub

Thanks in advance & Greetings

A: As indicated in the comments, there are at least two issues
1) When you say "I want to create a Home-Sheet from where I can start different macros for different sheets." you give the impression that you want to use the code module for "Home-Sheet" to contain the macros. Most macros don't belong in such sheet modules. Instead they belong in standard code modules. Insert one in the VBA editor and put it there.
2) It doesn't matter that a line like
Lastcol = Cells(1, Columns.Count).End(xlToLeft).Column rather than Lastcol = Cells(1, Columns.Count).End(xlToLeft).Column

is within the scope of a With statement. Unless you prefix Cells with a dot, VBA will interpret the Cells in the context of the active sheet. Instead, use:
Lastcol = .Cells(1, Columns.Count).End(xlToLeft).Column rather than Lastcol = Cells(1, Columns.Count).End(xlToLeft).Column

Similar remarks hold for Columns.

For his first recording on the Alpha label, Sergey Kasprov, a young Russian artist trained at the Moscow Conservatory, defies the laws of time. He has in fact chosen to create a dialogue between great Baroque geniuses and Russian Romantics: Rameau, Lully, Loeillet, Bach and Scarlatti revised by Tausig, Godowsky and Rachmaninov.
In the tradition of Marcelle Meyer, Glenn Gould or, more recently, Alexandre Tharaud, Sergey Kasprov pulls off the tour de force of freeing himself from 'Baroque' interpretative codes and, at the same time, from those of the 19th century, to better get back to the essential.
The excellent recording quality attests ideally to the discourse, respectful of the original counterpoint as well as unfailing digital dexterity necessitated by appropriate ornamentation and the amazing sound palette required by late Romanticism, all on a Steinway contemporary with Rachmaninov. A new talent, an Alpha discovery!


Organizers: Eyal Goren and Henri Darmon.

Note the unusual time! The Quebec-Vermont number theory days which traditionally mark the end of the seminar will be held on Tuesday and Wednesday to avoid conflicting with the graduation ceremony at McGill on Thursday.


My second time shooting the battle rappers in Surrey, BC was twice as fun as the first time, I'm not sure if it was just that I was more in tune with just what the heck was going on, or if the quality of the battlers was higher, but it was honestly a blast to be at.
Big thanks to Mike and Darren for the hosting and inviting me out to shoot.
Update: You can find the full album here on facebook. Remember to 'like' the Bailward Photography Facebook page to not miss out on any updates.

You like I have read and heard the admonition that "it takes three times the muscle work to frown than to smile, so quit working yourself to death and smile." I'm no muscle expert and do not know how to validate that piece of information but I do know it is much more fun to smile and laugh than to cry and frown.
Our society seems to be fast approaching the picture of a spoiled child sitting in a corner throwing a tantrum, crying and throwing toys all because we do not get our way and thus are not happy. Happiness in and of itself is a human emotion and thus is extremely fickle and given to the ebb and flow of life, often given to change without any advance notice.
Don't you find it very strange that many of the truly inwardly happy people are those who have very little of this world's goods. Men and women who gain genuine happiness have learned that sincere and lasting contentment comes from an overflow of thankfulness, faithfulness and acceptance of life's offerings.
Go out, do your best and keep smiling.

And I have been feeling bad about choosing the "smoked" flavor over the "natural" almonds.
I've had Blue Diamond's SmokeHouse Almonds. No need to fear…they're delicious. I am an almond fan and love all of Blue Diamond's flavors thus far (except the Wasabi is a bit strong/much for me).
Red Velvet Cake almonds, Blue Velvet Cake almonds, Orange, Brown, Green, Purple and every other damn color velvet cake almonds.
I would like Hair Pie flavored Nuts.
The cherry ones are the best !! Took a can from AZ to SC and people went nuts …sorry …just to easy …now gotta find more to buy and ship .
I love the Cherry Pie ones. I would love to try the Apple Pie flavored too. The toasted coconut are pretty good considering I don't really like coconut.
The cherry pie ones are SO good! I also loved the toasted coconut flavor they had this summer. I hope that comes back!


Sometimes when life turns out awful, you wish you could turn back the time and return to your childhood, where pain was only caused by bicycle accident and cry was triggered by your parents for not letting you to have candies. Everything was pretty sunshine back then. Well, I wouldn't say it was impossible.

I had a wonderful time there, being a kid for a day, though most of the bloggers were either mama's or married couple. I was there alone, it was terribly awkward. But no fear my fellow readers. I was there for multiple reasons - one of it was for the Petrosains. It's literally a combination of the word "Petronas" and "Science".
It took me completely back to the time when I first visited Chongqing Science and Technology Museum. I was only in my final year of high school and that little trip had given me a different view in science. With all various kind of interactive programs and games, I leaned pretty much everything they exhibited.
Same thing applies here in Petrosains KLCC. It's not just all exhibition and gallery. Kids don't find that fun any longer. Informative, but seriously not fun.
There was this one machine in Petrosains, which I found absolutely brilliant. The machine was designed for two people and we had to sit face to face across a long rectangular table. Inside the glass table, they place an iron ball which could be moved using your mind. Yeah, I freaking said it, with you MIND! Literally mind blowing. We had to strap a specially made headband and this device allowed us to control the iron ball with the wave in our brain. In another word, the calmer you get, the further the ball will roll. Awesome!
This place has been around for quite sometimes and it's been a great attraction for all the visitors in KL, including my very self. Stay tune for more of my reviews on some other topics. Thanks for reading this y'all!


Tropical Protein is rated 3.0 out of 5 by 44.
A tropical blend of fruit juices teamed with 30 grams of whey & soy proteins - strong and sweet, that's how we like 'em.
Rated 1 out of 5 by DisappointedCustomer from PLEASE CHANGE BACK I've been buying 1 or 2 of the large bottles every week for the past year or so. (Thankfully) they were out of the large bottles so I bought one of the small bottles - opened for breakfast this morning and it tasted terrible!! Watery, less sweet, and just 'off'. I shook it up again thinking maybe it had settled but it still tasted bad. Looked closely at the label and noticed it said 'new smoother taste'. Glad I didn't waste money on the larger size. The new texture is fine but the flavor is poor. Very disappointed, and it looks like I'm not alone based on the other reviews. Please bring back the original. I will no longer be buying this product as is.
Rated 1 out of 5 by chuckEsleaze from "New Smoother Taste" = not as good as original Ugh, I am gutted to discover that Naked reformulated their recipe for the Tropical Protien shakes. I drank one nearly every weekday for the past several years and loved the flavor and consistently of the drink. I would always buy my local Target completely out of shakes to ensure my supply! The new formula lacks much of the tropical flavor of the old (coconut and pineapple flavors are diminished) and the consistency is markedly changed. I'm crushed that they changed the recipe. I've one "old" recipe shake left in my fridge that expires day after tomorrow; I won't be buying any more Tropical shakes and will return the 12 "new smoother taste" shakes I purchased this morning. Thank you Naked, for being a part of my day for the past years, I'll miss you! What a disappointment!
Rated 1 out of 5 by Chris from New Smoother Taste I bought five of these unaware that a change had been made to the formula. It tastes watered down and not as flavorful. No longer is the reassuring thickness and grit that helped with satiation. I have been drinking this for years and I am angry that it is ruined. No one wants new coke.
Rated 1 out of 5 by nothappy from Been drinking these daily for years. Not anymore! I've been drinking a 46oz bottle of the Naked protein smoothies every day for the last couple years. Unfortunately, they recently made some changes to this product, and they're not good. The taste has completely changed and the quality has gone down hill. I'm afraid they've just lost a customer. That's $6 per day that I'll no longer be spending.
Rated 1 out of 5 by Kay8 from New formula The new formula is awful!!!! I don't even want to finish the bottle because the new formula is that bad. I loved the chalky consistency but it no longer has it. I won't be purchasing anymore bottles unless they bring back the chalky consistency. I'll have to find another protein drink now.
Rated 1 out of 5 by Alex_MN from You ruined it I was buying the big jugs all the time. then you made it smother and I can't find the old kind anywhere. I wanted the powder feeling of the drink.


Paris, June 28, 2013 -- Technology advances over the last several years has given rise to a variety of new and advanced methods that can assist decision making. The International Federation for Information Processing (IFIP) working group 8.3 and the Association for Information Systems (AIS) Special Interest Group on Decision Support, Knowledge and Data Management System (SIGDSS) are jointly sponsoring an open conference June 2-5, 2014 at Universite Pierre et Marie Curie - Campus Jussieu, Paris, France. This is the 16th IFIP WG 8.3 Open Conference and it continues the SIGDSS International Conference on Decision Support Systems (ICDSS) tradition.
DSS are smarter with the introduction of artificial intelligence, more timely with real-time data, more accurate with data mining and 'big data' methods, more strategic with data from many sources, more precise with the availability of functional data, more inclusive with social networking, and media rich with video and audio. The 2014 Open Conference of the IFIP WG 8.3 and ICDSS will focus on the theme "DSS 2.0 – Supporting decision making with new technologies"
The IFIP TC8/Working Group 8.3 conferences present the latest innovations and achievements of academic communities on Decision Support Systems (DSS). These advances include theory, systems, computer aided methods, algorithms, techniques, applications and technologies supporting decision making.
The Special Interest Group on Decision Support, Knowledge and Data Management Systems (SIGDSS) is organized under the auspices of the Association for Information Systems (AIS) since 2001. SIGDSS is a forum for members to discuss, develop, and promote issues, ideas and research related to using Information Technologies to support decision-makers and improve decision processes in businesses and organizations. SIGDSS organizes international conferences under the International Conference on DSS (ICDSS).
Paper submissions from academics and practitioners are invited, and showcases of real case studies will be especially welcomed. Papers will be peer-reviewed. The acceptance of the contributions will be based on the originality of the work, the relevance for the conference theme and its overall quality.
Intending participants in DSS2014 are invited to submit papers for consideration for presentation at the conference and publication in its proceedings. Submitted manuscripts must be original contributions that have not been previously published.
The conference proceedings will be published electronically with an ISBN as part of the registration fee by IOS Press as book chapters in the Frontiers of Artificial Intelligence and Applications (FAIA) series provided that at least one author is registered and available to present the paper. Each paper must have a unique registration in order to be published, and the registered author will receive a USB of the proceedings. FAIA is indexed in SciVerse Scopus, ACM Digital Library, DBLP, Google Scholar and Zentralblatt MATH, and in previous years in ISI Conference Proceedings Citation Index, CPCi (T-R decides on a year by year basis which conferences to index). A hard cover version of the book will be available for separate purchase.
Following a tradition of the IFIP WG8.3 and SIGDSS conferences, authors of best papers will be invited to submit extended versions to special issues of international scientific journals such as GDN, JDSST, JDS and IDT.
All accepted papers, posters and workshops descriptions will be published in the proceedings, provided that they are received by the due date of final version of accepted papers and are formatted as specified on the conference website.
Accepted papers will be published only if at least one of the authors is registered to attend the conference in due time, with a unique registration for each paper. Full and short papers will be presented in regular sessions, while posters will be presented in a poster session.

House of Manson, conosciuto anche con il titolo Manson, è un film del 2014 scritto e diretto da Brandon Slagle. È stato presentato in prima mondiale il 18 ottobre 2014 al Twin Cities Film Festival.

Il film racconta la storia di Charles Manson, fino agli omicidi Tate-LaBianca dell'agosto 1969 e ai successivi processo e condanna.

Trama

Accoglienza
Dread Central recensì favorevolmente House of Manson, scrivendo che è un film "accurato, violento, scioccante, e triste". Slagle concluse dicendo che l'opera "dovrebbe essere applaudita per aver affrontato un argomento che è stato sfruttato a morte, dandogli una prospettiva totalmente nuova dal punto di vista del pubblico". Anche Shock Till You Drop diede parere favorevole alla pellicola, citando l'ottima recitazione e lodando il film per essere "uno dei pochi veri biopic indie che non sembrano semplicemente una scusa per fare soldi, puntando sul sensazionalismo e la morbosità della vicenda Manson". La rivista Starburst fu invece più cauta, scrivendo che il film "non offrirà nuove intuizioni o conclusioni ma è una semplice disgressione su un personaggio la cui infamia non mostra alcun segno di cedimento con il trascorrere del tempo. Il film di Slagle è comunque interessante, costruito su eccellenti performance attoriali, e uno stile da documentario che tiene desta l'attenzione dello spettatore".

Vita Malacologica 6 – Conidae (16 December 2008)
M.J. TENORIO, C.M.L. AFONSO & E. ROLÁN. New endemic species of Conus (Gastropoda, Conidae) from the islands of São Nicolau, Santo Antão and Sal in the Cape Verde Archipelago.
Three new species of Conus from the Cape Verde Islands are described and discussed. Conus kersteni spec. nov. is endemic to São Nicolau Island, whereas C. fernandesi spec. nov. is endemic to Santo Antão Island. C. melissae spec. nov. from Sal Island is a new member of the C. cuneolus group.
New taxa
Conus kersteni Tenorio, Afonso & Rolán, 2008.
Type locality: Tarrafel, southwest coast of São Nicolau Island, Cape Verde Islands; 16°33'54" N, 24°21'35"W.
Conus fernadesi Tenorio, Afonso & Rolán, 2008
Type locality: Porto Novo, south coast of Santa Antão Island, Cape Verde Islands; 17°01'02" N, 25°03'37"W.
Conus melissae Tenorio, Afonso & Rolán, 2008
Type locality: Baia de Prada, east coast of Sal Island, Cape Verde Islands; 16°44'02" N, 22°55'55"W.
W.J. FENZAN. Description of Conus mucronatus segondensis ssp. nov. from Vanuatu (Gastropoda, Conidae).
Conus mucronatus segondensis ssp. nov. is described from the Republic of Vanuatu in the Pacific Ocean. It is compared to C. mucronatus Reeve, 1843 and C. inscriptus Reeve, 1843.
Conus mucronatus segondensis Fenzan, 2008
Type locality: Segond Channel, Luyganville, Espiritu Santo Island, Republic of Vanuatu; 15°32"S 167°10" E, 26-30 m, in lagoon buried in silty sand.
J.K. TUCKER. The identity and systematics of Conus lightbourni Petuch, 1986 (Gastropoda, Conidae).
Conus lightbourni Petuch, 1986 was described from Bermuda. Despite intensive study of the West Atlantic cone shell fauna, this species remains poorly known. No further mentions of this species have been made in the popular scientific literature except for inclusions in catalogs. The remaining type specimens of C. lightbourni are re-examined. Although originally described in the subgenus Floraconus and said to be a close relative of C. anemone from Australia, C. lightbourni is actually related to C. amphiurgus Dall, 1889 and does not belong to Floraconus but rather in Dauciconus. Both species can be differentiated statistically by shell shape. These taxa are allopatric and could be subspecies of a single polytypic species. Conus lightbourni is known only from Bermuda, whereas C. amphiurgus ranges from North Carolina to the Caribbean. However, the two should be considered separate species because no evidence that they are conspecific exists and they can easily be distinguished from each other.
R.G. MOOLENBEEK, A. ZANDBERGEN & P. BOUCHET. Conus (Gastropoda, Conidae) from the Marquesas Archipelago: description of a new endemic offshore fauna.
Based on surveys conducted in the 1980s-1990s, especially by the MUSORSTOM 9 expedition, we report on the bathymetric occurrences of 35 species of Conus in the Marquesas Archipelago. Four are new records of shallow-water tropical Indo-Pacific species, and six are new species that were dredged, essentially from depths between 100 and 400 meters. The species classically found in deep water elsewhere in the South Pacific are strikingly absent from the Marquesas, and the local deep-water faunule is thus highly endemic. This study confirms the Marquesas as a biogeographically outstanding archipelago, with a rather poor, but unique, benthic fauna.
New species: Conus tiki spec. nov., C. dieteri spec. nov. C. pepeiu spec. nov. C. troendlei spec. nov., C. hivanus spec. nov., and C. pseudoimperialis spec. nov.

R.G. MOOLENBEEK, D. RÖCKEL & P. BOUCHET. New records and new species of cones from deeper water off Fiji (Mollusca, Gastropoda, Conidae).
A little less than 100 species of cones are known in the literature from waters around the Fiji islands, all intertidal to subtidal. We report here on the species taken by recent off-shore and deep-water benthic sampling expeditions. Samples were taken to depths of 1300 m, although cones were taken not deeper than 680 m. Leaving aside two taxa of uncertain identity, the material contains 22 species from depths deeper that 100 m, all of which are new records for Fiji, including four new species (Conus cakobaui spec. nov., alive in 414-567 m; C. joliveti spec. nov. alive in 150-353 m; C. fijisulcatus spec. nov. alive in 150-188m; and C. gigasulcatus spec. nov., alive in 290-300 m). A further 19 species are from depths shallower that 100 m, and these include sic new records for Fiji, including two new species (C. fijiensis spec. nov., alive at 80-120 m; and C. sutanorcum spec. nov., alive in 32-50 m).

Z.G. BAOANAN, D.A. LAGUNZAD, R.C. PAGULAYAN & L.J. CRUZ. Anatomy of six Philippine cone snails (Conus) (Gastropoda, Conidae).
Anatomical knowledge of the marine snails belonging to the genus Conus is still limited. In this report, comparative anatomy of six species of Conus with different food preferences was investigated to supplement the shell morphology in characterizing these species. There was a rather conservative plan in the organ morphology of the studied systems. The most marked differences between species are manifested in the foregut system, particularly in the venom apparatus. This is most likely in response to their specific feeding specialization. Variations in shape and size of the penis and several osphradial characteristics were also observed. We present here the different terms used to describe the anatomical structures in an attempt to further standardize the nomenclature for the genus Conus.
R.G. MOOLENBEEK & J. GOUD. A note on Conus trailli A. Adams, 1855 and Lilliconus wallacei Lorenz & Morrison, (Gastropoda, Conidae).
Based on a study of the holotype of Conus trailli A. Adams, 1855, the authors conclude that Lilliconus wallacei Lorenz & Morrison , 2004 is a junior synonym. Living specimens of Lilliconus trailli were found and studied for the first time in Indonesia. Conus micarius Hedley, 1912 from Queensland, Australia is also considered a junior synonym.
R.G. MOOLENBEEK. Range extension of Conus mcbridei Lorenz, 2005, an overlooked species (Gastropoda, Conidae).
Conus mcbridei Lorenz, 2005 is recorded from Indonesia, Kalimantan (Maratua), Java (Karang Jong), New Caledonia (Lifou) and Mauritius.
R.G. MOOLENBEEK. Plicaustraconus a new genus in the family Conidae (Mollusca, Gastropoda).
After more than 200 years the subdivision of the genus Conus in related (sub)genera is still problematic. A peculiar plica or fold on the anterior part of the columella of the genus Conus is a character shared by a group of north and eastern Australian cones.
Plicaustraconus Moolenbeek, 2008
Type species: Rhizoconus advertex Garrard, 1961, Recent, eastern Australia.
