By controlling the mind with Kriya yoga or any other Raj yoga practice will not yield the ultimate truth. When the self is not the body what is the use of practicing mind control.
Manduka Upanishads :~ Those who want Brahman will not practice control of mind.~(p231)
That is Yoga for those who are not receptive and sharp enough to grasp the truth. Seeker of truth will adopt path of inquiry, reason and discrimination.
Truth has to be attained not by intuition but by reason, which is superior to it. Not even a combination of intellect and intuition will find the truth. Proof is the first thing in pursuit of truth. One has to know with certainty not by heresy.
That is why Buddha said:~Believe nothing just because a so-called wise person said it. Believe nothing just because a belief is generally held. Believe nothing just because it is said in ancient books. Believe nothing just because it is said to be of divine origin. Believe nothing just because someone else believes it. Believe only what you yourself test and judge to be true.
Each person sees in his own Samadhi whatever is uppermost in his mind.
How does he/she or anyone know that what he/she or anyone sees is the truth? Similarly, each has intuitions agreeable to what is uppermost in his mind.
How does he/she or anyone know that what he/she or anyone sees is the truth? Similarly, each has intuitions agreeable to what is uppermost in his mind.
Believers who are anxious for a mystic or occult experience often get it. But it is only a mental construction of their own, suggested originally from outside.
Mystic may say that the spirit is the source of all good, but the question of questions is how does he know that it is the source? That is mere scholastic dogma until an attempt to show, to analyze and prove that it is the source, is made, then it becomes higher truth.
How is one to know that He is God suppose he sees God? His mere statement is not enough. He must have proof; he must show that what he saw is God. How can anyone sees God when whatever seen, known, believed and experienced as a person of the world are reality within the waking experience, but the whole waking experience itself is falsehood.
The orthodox class who criticized rational based nonduality by saying that they will not agree other than their accepted truth shows only hypocritical attitude. They think what they know is the ultimate truth because orthodox way is the only way because their guru said so. They feel everybody else is in error because they do not follow orthodoxy –priest craft. They think their cult is more in numbers, but they are unaware of the fact that, mere numbers do not make truth.
One has to inquire, analyze and reason. No orthodox knows the ultimate truth or Brahman truth because he bases his- self on birth, life, death and world. The ultimate truth has to be proved not assumed.

"Forensic therapy" sounds like the premise for a dramatic television series. But the work Alex Easterbrook does as a real forensic therapist is far more challenging – and far more rewarding – than any scripted treatment could imagine.
Read story
The forensic sciences involve the application of science to the legal system. Careers in forensic fields are in increasing demand. The goal of the forensic studies minor is to provide a broad introduction to some of the fields of study with forensic applications, ranging from natural to social and behavioral sciences. Although the minor is appropriate for any student who would like to learn more about forensics, it provides a particularly attractive option for students majoring in fields with forensic applications (e.g.: biology, chemistry, anthropology, psychology, sociology, engineering) who are considering careers in the forensic sciences. Through the minor, students will gain a more holistic perspective of the forensic sciences, which is important in a field that typically involves multi-disciplinary collaboration. The minor, in combination with a major in a forensic-related field, will prepare students for further training or graduate studies in the forensic sciences.
The requirements for the minor include core classes in forensic anthropology and forensic psychology. Students take electives across three topical areas including anthropology, biology and chemistry and social sciences.
After completing the minor in forensic studies, students will:
A career in the forensic sciences can be interesting and rewarding. Forensic scientists apply expertise in science to the legal system, providing analyses and expert opinion before or during court cases in the pursuit of truth. The work of forensic scientists can be used to address questions and solve problems related to both civil and criminal law with impacts on public safety, public health and human rights issues.
Forensic scientists may work in a variety of settings, including law enforcement, the government, universities and colleges, forensic laboratories, medical examiner/coroner offices or as independent consultants. In addition to providing expertise in civil and criminal cases, forensic scientists may be called upon to assist with mass disasters and war crimes.
Fort Lewis College has small class sizes, allowing for more hands-on and interactive activities in the classroom. The types of activities offered through the minor include a classroom trial, a simulated forensic recovery, hands-on case studies in forensic anthropology, and laboratory techniques in molecular biology, field documentation methods and advanced training in skeletal analysis.
Pursuing a career in the forensic sciences begins with a bachelor's degree in a field with forensic applications and typically involves additional training or graduate study with specialization in forensics. Excellent writing skills and attention to detail are necessary for a forensic science career. For more information about the forensic sciences, including information for students on careers, visit the American Academy of Forensic Sciences website.

Subspace (Part II)
Subspace (Part II) (亜空間, Subspace) is the 30th and penultimate stage of The Subspace Emissary.
When the fighters enter Subspace, they are turned into trophies by Tabuu. Luckily, King Dedede, Luigi, and Ness are saved by Dedede's brooches and save most of the characters. At the same time, Kirby, who had previously swallowed one of Dedede's brooches, is awoken. During the level, the player must play as Kirby and save the fighters that Dedede did not. Once completed, a cutscene occurs where Kirby finds Ganondorf's trophy. He studies Ganondorf carefully until Bowser arrives, bashing the trophy angrily as revenge for being turned into a trophy earlier by Ganondorf. While Kirby stares in confusion at this display, King Dedede leaps in from behind and hugs Kirby. Also, if Link and Zelda are saved, then a cutscene will happen where they rescue Ganondorf. If Wario is rescued, a cutscene plays that shows him knocking down Dedede for stealing his cargo and trophies earlier. He races them up the stairs to the Great Maze.
Playable characters[edit]
Trophy locations[edit]
Team Members[edit]
All the characters that Kirby recovered, return the team, now with different members, this team gathers with King Dedede, Ness, Luigi, the other characters that they recovered, and Bowser, Link and Zelda include Ganondorf, showing him the Master Hand's corpse, demonstrating that Tabuu is more powerful than ever, this makes Ganondorf feel a bit angry, and like Bowser, he becomes good, this also happens with Wario, surprised that King Dedede, Ness and Luigi, the characters that King Dedede had stolen to Wario, now are not trophies, he thinkes that all of them are going to the great maze, and goes here with his Wario Bike.

After Valencia: Who Is Testing What At The First MotoGP Test Of 2017?
Submitted by David Emmett on
On Tuesday, November 15th, the 2017 season starts in earnest. The biannual session of bike swapping commences two days after the final MotoGP round at Valencia, as riders, crew chiefs, mechanics, press officers and many others swap garages to join their 2017 teams. It is often something of a disappointment, with only a few riders moving from team to team, but the coming season sees some big names switching bikes, as well as an important new arrival in the shape of KTM. So to help you keep track, here is who will be testing what at Valencia on Tuesday.
All eyes will of course be on the factory Ducati garage, where Jorge Lorenzo is due to get his first outing on the Desmosedici. The Bologna factory has been working flat out on getting their 2017 bike ready, Michele Pirro giving the GP17 its first test after Aragon. The test was so important that Pirro was unable to fly to Motegi to replace the still recovering Andrea Iannone.
How will Lorenzo fare? We will have some idea on Tuesday. That is, if it doesn't rain, which the (notoriously inaccurate) long-range forecasts show it might. More important, perhaps, than his first test on the bike may be the relationship he establishes with new crew chief Cristian Gabarrini. The Italian worked previously with Casey Stoner, and so is used to working with complex characters. Tuesday and Wednesday is the day Lorenzo and Gabarrini get their first chance to get a feel for one another.

Breitberg: "If Greece leaves the EU it will be followed by others"
The independent US publication Breiteberg writes today about the plans of the European Union regarding Greece. If Greece does not find a way out of the financial crisis that it's in within the next month, then the country will have to declare bankruptcy. In addition, such a decision regarding Greece is being pushed by other eurozone members, who are dissatisfied with the convergence of Athens and Moscow.Countries such as Finland, Germany, Austria and the Netherlands are not willing to allocate money to Greek prime minister Tsipras, calling for a policy of so-called hard economics, opposed by a number of other EU countries, including Spain. It will have a very strong impact on the European Community if one of the countries becomes bankrupt. This would undermine the stability of the euro, which is already shaken against the background of the stable policy of the European Community.
At the same time, EU officials are concerned that Greece is actively cooperating with Russia, and help may come from a state which is not an ally of Europe. The fact is that if Greece finally chooses in favor of Russia and leaves a the EU, then it will be followed by a number of other EU countries, and as such the eurozone would cease to exist. Meanwhile, for Russia there would be one more strategic and economic partner.
Today's edition of CNN reports that the US is ready for war with Iran. The US Secretary of Defense said that any deal with Iran would mean inspection of Iranian nuclear facilities. However, the Supreme Leader of Iran strongly condemns this initiative and considers it an interference in the internal politics of the country.
Meanwhile, Obama is in a desperate struggle with Congress and with his own party, as well as with the government of Israel for the peace talks with Iran. However, the president's opponents not only do not support his initiative, but also are in favor of military intervention as a preventive measure against possible aggression of Tehran.
In addition, the recent concern of Western countries is also about possible cooperation of Iran and North Korea, another country with which the United States has very strained political relations. Many Western analysts agree that the agreement on Iran's nuclear program will not in fact change anything in the international relations of the countries participating in the negotiations. But there is still a chance that the Western countries have enough discretion not to start another armed conflict.

Submit your support inquiries via the DevExpress Support Center for assistance.
Developer Express Inc is proud to announce the immediate availability of its newest release, DevExpress v20.1. Built and optimized for desktop, web, and mobile developers alike...
With 40 categories and over 400 products to choose from, DevExpress is honored to have been voted best in class 18 times in this year's Visual Studio Magazine Reader's Choice Awards...
In multi-user data-aware applications, there are times when one user edits a record while another user is editing the same record. As long as the changes being made do not affect the same field (e.g., one user modifies the task description while another user attaches a file), XAF can resolve the situation, and merge simultaneous changes made by different users. Refer to the Concepts > Business Model Design > Business Model Design with XPO > Optimistic Concurrency Control help topic for more details.
To try out this functionality (which will be available in version 13.1 of XAF), add the following code to your Program.cs file.
static void Main() { DevExpress.Xpo.XpoDefault.TrackPropertiesModifications = true; // ...}
Important note:
To support this functionality, persistent properties should be implemented in a specific manner. If you implement your business model in code, then follow XPO best practices and use either the SetPropertyValue or OnChanged method in persistent property setters. These methods have several overloads. Use the overloads that take both the old and new property values:
SetPropertyValue("PropertyName", ref propertyValueHolder, value);
OnChanged("PropertyName", propertyValueHolder, value)
5 stars isn't enough. Can't wait!
I see your 5 stars and raise you another 5...
Very interesting.
But what about rules ? An object that could be valid in the Save context could become invalid when merged.
That's absolutely amazing!! What would happen if two users are editing the same field? Will it handle modifying collections?
> An object that could be valid in the Save context could become invalid when merged.
As you can see in my video, the Save action is still active after I click Merge. It means that the Merge operation doesn't commit my changes. It updates field values that were modified by another user in UI. After that, I will click Save again, and validation rules will trigger (if any).
Konstantin: What's the reason this is implemented in XAF and not XPO?
I have a home-grown solution for this under XPO, but it would be nice to be able to use the 'official' approach.
> What's the reason this is implemented in XAF and not XPO?
Martin, the Session.TrackPropertiesModifications property is pure XPO feature. You can enable it for a particular Session, or globally via XpoDefault. But XPO is not a UI framework and you will have to implement user interaction yourself. To see how it works in pure XPO, run the XPO Tutorials v12.2 demo and navigate to the Track Properties Modifications section.
> What would happen if two users are editing the same field?
If both users change the same field value, merging is not possible and a user can either refresh data or cancel saving.
> Will it handle modifying collections?
Yes, collection properties are supported.
Thanks for the answers and great work guys!!
WEB platform is main for most of our applications. What we must to do to support this in WEB?
Just need discover how localize the message and buttons.
Thanks this great work
But this not work in normal grid controle project
How can work in multi users project in grid view is any way to do that
to post comments.

A drone can also be referred to as the Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV). A Drone simply refers to a semi-autonomous vehicle which is attached to bigger spacecraft and is designed for expansion of the launching capabilities of the ship.
On the other hand, UAV is simply the short form of Unmanned Aerial vehicle and refers to systems of unmanned aircraft that is capable of carrying out its operations without any internal pilot. This is simply the key difference between a UAV and a drone. However, it is worth noting that the terms UAV and drone can be utilized interchangeably and most people alternatively use both of these terms. Another difference is the fact that UAV is a newer term that is utilized to describe cutting edge aircraft whereas drones were utilized in older times.
As we previously stated drone is also referred to as the Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV). It's an aircraft that doesn't have a pilot on the plank and is automatically controlled by the computers or even using a remote control. Use of the drones has developed rapidly because it can be able to stay in the sky for more hours, unlike the manned aircraft. Drones also happen to be cheaper as compared to the military, and since they're flown remotely, no risk is imposed to the flight crew.
Types of drones
There're various types of the surveillance and armed drones in Afghanistan and Iraq; the United States has 2 separate 'squadrons' of the armed drones whereby one is managed by the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA), and the other is managed by the United States Air Force. The United Kingdom has many types of the surveillance drones, their most popular one being the Watchkeeper. There are also numerous other drones that are located in other nations. Recently, there has been a certain announcement on the news that Amazon is carrying out tests on delivering various packages using the drones. Although this idea has not yet been finalized, this process is still going on. Just like the definition of Dictionary.com, drones can also be utilized in numerous other contexts.
Drones have mainly been utilized by the United States military when shooting missiles to the enemy combatants from various countries like Pakistan and Afghanistan. Nevertheless, the price of purchasing these uncrewed aircraft has precipitously dropped in the recent years, which have made them more accessible by commercial users like small businesses, entrepreneurs and companies.
Advantages of using drones
• Helps in the detection of the forest fires
• Drones successfully struck the militants of various terrorist groups such as Al Qaeda
• The surveillance drones gathered the intelligence hat contributed to Osama Bin Laden's assassination.
• Drones can be used to find the missing felons and children
• Monitoring of the environmental data such as the population of the animals.
Disadvantages of drones
• The domestic drones tend to violate the privacy rights
• Apart from being used for the purposes of surveillance, some drones happen to be lethal
• Drones make people paranoid since they feel as if they are being observed by the national government.
• Some drone is a worldwide rarity and very expensive
• They are less aviation job opportunities that are available since the drones are flying machines which are unmanned.
UAV (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle)
This is simply the short form of Unmanned Aerial Vehicle and may also be referred to as the Unmanned Aircraft system. The UAVs are available in numerous different shapes and sizes. Most of these aircraft are designed for very specific application and roles. However, almost all aircraft can easily be configured through the payload interchange so as to perform many other tasks. As per the reconnaissance on the unscrewed vehicle by MSN Encarta; the unscrewed aerial vehicles which can fly above the staging areas and combat zones, dropping various supplies to the troops, release bombs and carry out the reconnaissance on the enemy forces. According to this definition, every person would have to believe that the UAVs can only be utilized in the military scenarios.
Advantages of the UAV
• The UAVs do not have or require a qualified aerial pilot to be on board.
• They can efficiently enter into the environments that could be dangerous or harmful for human life.
• They reduce that risk for exposure of the operator of the aircraft.
• UAVs can remain in the airspace for a maximum period of thirty hours to perform a precise and repetitive raster scans of a certain region, day and night, even in total darkness under the computer control.
• The UAVs are programmable so as to autonomously complete a certain mission even when they have lost their GCS.
Types of UAVs
There are three main types of the UAVs which are classified based on their construction, quantity or different elements that condition their major lift. The main factor that is considered when selecting among these types of UAV is the intended application. Other actors that may be considered include the needed stability and precision and the distance/ speed ability. These major types include; the fixed wing, rotary wing, and the multi-rotor UAV.
• Fixed wing
These UAV type consists the fixed-wing whose surface creates the UAV's major lift. The rigid wing enables these unmanned aircraft to have a natural gliding capability and be more forgiving when it faces technical or piloting errors while in the airspace. These fixed-wing aircraft can also carry more weight or equipment for long distances using less power.
The features of these types of UAV can be applied perfectly in the longer missions and packages delivery services. However, they can't be used in performing precision missions. Additionally, because of the air that is moving over this type of UAV so as to generate the lift, they cannot fly within one spot meaning they can't, therefore, provide a precise positioning of the camera.
Rotary wing
The rotary wing type of UAVs refers to the unmanned aircraft whose propulsion means derives substantial part or the whole lift from the system of rotary wing. This UAV type resembles a helicopter since it only has one rotor.
One of its best qualities is its ability to land and take off vertically, thus allowing the user of the rotary wing to operate it within smaller spaces. The rotary wing's capacity to perform and hover maneuvering makes its suitable to be applied for inspections where the precision maneuvering happens to be needed for the operation. This may be the inspections of power lines, pipelines, bridges, railroads, and others. However, these types of UAVs need more complicated and longer repair and maintenance process.
• Multi-rotor
The multi-rotor UAVs refers to the unmanned vehicles that consist of many rotor blades which revolve around the fixed masts. These types of UAVs comes in a wide variety of setups namely; tri-copter (3 rotors), quad-copter (4 rotors), hexa-copter (6 rotors) and octo-copter (8 rotors). Additionally, there are other unusual setups that consist of 12 and 16 rotors.
His type of UAVs have similar qualities as the rotary wings, although they are easier to operate and more stable. This indicates that they are designed for precise and accurate missions. They ca perfectly be used for aerial mapping, infrastructure monitoring, and filming. However, it is worth noting that the multi rotor UAVs usually tends to experience short flight range and time, meaning you might require extra flights to be fully complete those operations.
Uses of the UAVS
• Measuring TV, cell phone or radio coverage above any terrain.
• Performing geological surveys – more info
• Performing the thermal or visual imaging of any region.
• Performing an accurate/ precise and repetitive raster scans of a certain region
Disadvantages of the Unmanned Aerial Vehicles
• Programming limitations
The UAVs may be unable adapt to the changing environment of the battlefield such as attacking a new target which is more desirable and appeared after launching of the aircraft or change course so as to avoid the defenses of the enemy.
• Payload limitations
Due to the fact that the UAVs are basically smaller than the manned planes, they can't carry large payloads. Nevertheless, when compared to the manned aircrafts, the ratio of the payload to the total weight is higher.
• Less versatile
The UAVs are designed to perform specific kinds of missions. There are therefore less versatile as compared to the modern combat aircrafts which perform many roles.
• Limited range
Since the UAVS are unable to carry much fuel when compared to the manned aircrafts, they tend to have shorter ranges, although this is a limitation that is currently being overcome.
• Contact loss
If the contact with station at the ground level is lost, the UAV may also be lost.
Although the drones and UAVs are mostly used alternatively, we can clearly see that there are some differences between them. A drone refers to the semi autonomous vehicle that is attached to the larger spacecraft and is like a robot while the UAV can be bale to operate without the internal pilot.

Combination skin is generally characterised by an oilier forehead or nose, with dry to very dry skin across the cheeks, with a greater propensity to reactivity. In Two Minds is formulated to address these complexities by gently cleansing, normalising sebum production, soothing irritation, and providing lightweight hydration without overburdening the skin.
Caring for combination skin—a surface that is often simultaneously oily and dry—requires a nuanced approach. To address the multiple personalities of this skin type, care must be taken to carefully decongest, soothe, and balance without over-stripping or overburdening the surface.

The Great Interrogation: How To Answer A Woman's Toughest Questions
"How do I look?"
When a woman asks this, she wants you to comment on not only what she's wearing, but something about her in particular. Women relate to their clothes: they notice how colors compliment their skin, or how certain cuts highlight their physical assets. You'll score double points if you can say what in particular about what she's wearing, and what she naturally looks like go together well.

I'm sitting in one of Las Vegas' only NON-Resorts. A very simple, and very old, one star property adjacent to an expansive parking lot in what can only be described as an exceedingly expensive piece of Las Vegas earth with a terrifically inexpensive property sitting on top of it.
The story of how I got here over the last 24 hours perfectly illustrates how absurd (and overtly dishonest) the hospitality industry has become with their so-called Resort Fees. Fees designed to conceal the true price of hotel rooms against the realistic pressures of the free market.
Twenty-four hours ago I set myself on a mission to find a specific type of hotel property I'd previously speculated might exist: a hotel where the room itself would cost less than the "resort fee." If you're not yet familiar with the resort fee (haven't made any recent trips of Orlando or Las Vegas), it's the mandatory purchase of hotel amenities (Internet, landline phones, pool use, parking, etc.), whether you use them or not, which is nearly impossible to get out of paying (and quite often isn't disclosed honestly by third party booking engines). Put another way, I wanted to find a hotel claiming to charge more for the Internet and the landline phone, than for the room itself.
It took me exactly 4 minutes to find such a property using Kayak, Agoda, and a very thorough article on the excessive nature of Las Vegas' resort fees. It's not important which hotel it actually was where I booked my lopsided pricing reservation, because honestly it wasn't hard to find more of them (I discovered 5 more properties pulling the same stunt in further searches), so I'll just refer to my reservation as being made at Hotel A. I used a third party booking engine that did NOT factor in the cost of the resort fee into its hotel total price calculus (this is common for third parties that want to pretend-advertise "actual costs" as lower than their competitors are offering -- if you've seen the beltless Trivago man commercials you have an idea of what I'm talking about). So I became a future guest at 3 star Hotel A in Las Vegas, NV for a total room price of $19 + tax, a bargain by anyone's standards.
So how much does Hotel A force all its guests to pay for access to the Internet, a landline telephone, and a $10 off coupon to a show if and only if a show is available for sale?: $20 + tax
This is how the reservation would appear on another third party website (one I did not use to make my booking) where the resort fee, labeled as hotel fee, is actually disclosed on the pay page (however it's not disclosed that the resort fee is taxed by the State of Nevada):
The true price, the honest price, of a stay for this night at Hotel A is actually $39 + tax. So why all this talk of charging more money for the use of a landline telephone, than the room the landline telephone is in? Why do hotels do this? What is a resort fee really? I'll get to these questions in a moment.
When I went to check-in I didn't go alone, I brought along an army (a small army) of screen-grabs, saved websites, and photo links to explain to the front desk staff and management, how deceptive the resort fee had become, and how refusing to disclose it properly gave third party booking engines (called OTAs in the biz) unfair advantage through deceiving guests. There were also images of the advertising used to sell the hotel on a myriad of websites, all not technically true:
None of the statements on my collage of OTA advertising are actually true about Hotel A unless you accept this statement into your life:
It's free after I've paid for It!
I took a strong stand against the resort fee, and stated because my booking didn't include the resort fee on the payment page or the "Booking Conditions" page or the "Special Conditions" page or the "Room Info" page that I wasn't going to pay it.
Hotel A took an even stronger stand and told me if I didn't pay the resort fee they were canceling my reservation.
I attempted to use some of the logic I've outlined here to prove to the general manager that the resort fee was, and always has been, a ruse to cloak deceptive business practices in artificial (and absurd) legitimacy. He was having none of it.
I asked him if he thought it was logical (or ethical for that matter) to value a hotel room at $19 and value the use of the Internet and landline phone at $20. He began to talk about something rarely spoken of outside inner-hotel-circles, the idea that Online Travel Agencies (OTAs) take commission, 25% in the case of my reservation. And that for a room to be profitable (or break even) the resort fee must be factored in. His utterance goes to the heart of the questions I posed earlier.
Why is there really a "resort fee" (even in cases when your hotel is clearly and obviously NOT a resort)?
Hotels wanted to find a revenue stream that was mandatory (just like a paid room rate is) but that was disconnected from the sellers of their rooms, and therefore couldn't be intruded into with commissions, couldn't be factored into price comparisons, and would be very difficult for the consumer, the hotel guest, to use in the decision making process on which hotel to choose. They invented the resort fee (or more accurately, they appropriated the use of an old term used by actual resorts). They pretended it was for things like Internet, obsolete phones, pools (whether the pools were open or not), parking (whether you had a car or not), and fitness centers (whether you were a gym rat or a 300lb. coach potato); and they made every single guest pay it, no matter whether you would use any of the items on their made up list.
It's probably true that the very first resort fees in the 1990s were actually at the highest end resorts, and actually meant to cover actual operating costs of actual amenities that actually cost money. But that's not how they've evolved with a vengeance in the last decade.
Now they represent a lie.
You can never catch a business actually admitting to the word "lie." You may find yourself surrounded with its various lower-key not-quite-synonyms: misconception, misunderstanding, error, whoopsie, difference of opinion. But for the sake of the traveling public I'm willing to go out on a limb and call the modern infestation of resort fees what they actually are, they're lies.
You're paying a fee, not for the use of any useless amenity, but for the betterment of the hotel's bottom line, for the hotel's ability to evade free market economics in advertising room rates, and for the hotel to trick you into getting something you're not, and for a faux-cheaper price.
An in-depth discussion of resort fee economics is tiresome, complex, and depressing. Even the description I've given here may harness the power of those adjectives, so I'll simply end with the conclusion to my story.
My reservation at Hotel A was canceled by the manager (I honestly don't believe I'll ever see that $19 in my bank account again), and I left the Hotel A, using the Internet already included in my phone package to search for a property in Vegas that didn't have a resort fee, that advertised their price in comparison to others fairly and honestly. So I came here, to the only property I could find online that wasn't a fictional resort, for $28 + tax:
The room is clean, the bathroom has a brand new coat of fuchsia paint on it, the breakfast is actually free, the landline phone is completely free, the parking is totally free, and the Wi-Fi I'm using to write this story is 100%, no strings attached, I promise you won't have to pay for it to use it, free!
When you travel you have a choice where to spend your money (they haven't placed a fee on choice yet). You can choose to fight the resort fee by either refusing to book a property that has one, refusing to pay it, or refusing to buy (literally) into the lie. Ultimately it's your money, and no business, ethical or otherwise, can survive without you giving it to them.

Wow. I have been a big fan of QuickTime VR panoramas for years, but after viewing this image of the inauguration scene in Washington D.C. this past week by David Bergman, I've just become an immediate cheerleader for Gigapan.
According to David's description on the Gigapan website:
I made this Gigapan image from the north press platform during President Obama's inaugural address at the U.S. Capitol in Washington, DC on January 20, 2009. It's made up of 220 images and the final image size is 59,783 X 24,658 pixels or 1,474 megapixels.
The resolution of this image is INCREDIBLE. The Gigapan website lets users create "snapshots" which are zoomed-in areas of the image that can be labeled. It's remarkable how many details are visible.
The opening page of the Gigapan website currently features this photograph, zooming to show several security snipers on a distant rooftop. Yes, this is VERY impressive photo resolution.
More details are available on David's blog post about this photo.
Hat tip to Andy Carvin for this photo link.
More information about the GigaPan process is available. An actual GigaPan imager costs $279 US currently. I'm thinking this is a tool Storychasers certainly need! 🙂

Utah Workers' Compensation Claims
UPDATED: March 10, 2020
It's all about you. We want to help you make the right legal decisions.
We strive to help you make confident law decisions. Finding trusted and reliable legal advice should be easy. This doesn't influence our content. Our opinions are our own.
Utah workers' compensation claims may be filed when a Utah employee has suffered an occupational injury or illness. The claim should be submitted to the Division of Industrial Actions with the Utah Labor Commission. By filing a Utah workers' compensation claim for benefits, an injured or sick worker may receive medical benefits, income replacement benefits, permanent disability benefits, and/or death benefits. An experienced Utah workers' compensation attorney is sometimes necessary to sort out complex cases and to make sure your claim for benefits is not denied for procedural reasons.
Process for Utah Workers' Compensation Claims
To ensure that you do not miss out on the opportunity to file for and receive workers' compensation benefits, you should report your employment-related injury to your boss promptly, and in no event more than 180 days after the date you are injured. Because filing for workers' compensation benefits is time-sensitive, it is in your best interest to notify your employer immediately.
It's imperative to note that the Utah workers' compensation statute of limitations is 1 year from the date you have been injured. If you fail to submit your claim within the 1 year period, the statute of limitations will bar you from getting income replacement and medical benefits from your employer's workers' compensation insurer.
Within seven days of hearing about your work injury, your boss must submit an "Employer's First Report of Injury or Illness," (Form 122) to the Utah Labor Commission's Division of Industrial Actions. Your boss must also make sure that you get a copy of the injury report.
In addition, you should see a doctor and receive treatment for your employment-connected injury as soon as you can. Make sure that you mention to your treating physician that your injury occurred at or is related to your job. Within seven days of initially treating your workplace injury, the doctor should then complete a "Physician's Initial Report of Injury or Illness" (Form 123).
If you are unsure how to complete and submit a Utah workers' compensation claim for benefits, or have questions or concerns about doing so, don't hesitate to call an experienced Utah workers' compensation attorney.
Reasons to Hire a Utah Workers' Compensation Attorney
If your occupational injury or disease is difficult to prove, or if your employer is not insured or does not have adequate workers' compensation insurance, you should contact an attorney who can persuasively argue your claim and make sure you are aware of all your options and benefits under Utah workers' compensation law.
Because the consequences of not receiving workers' compensation benefits during your recovery period from your occupational disease or accidental injury can be serious and far-reaching, it's highly recommended that you hire a Utah workers' compensation attorney to handle your claim, especially if you are facing a lengthy period of recovery or if your case is complicated. Complicated cases may include those where your claim has been contested by your uncooperative boss, your claim has been denied, or where a third party partially caused your injury and you need to recover from the third party in addition to recovering from your employer.

Great facility, excellent staff, and very good location. However, with the Hilton name on it, you will certainly pay dearly. Everything here is quite expensive, example: $11 toothbrushes that you could easily buy at the GS25 across the street for $2. If you want luxury and great service, and the price doesn't matter, this is the place for you. If you're on a budget, steer clear.

Rating: ***** Suggested Age: 10
Summary: "The summer holidays are dragging on and Harry Potter can't wait for the start of the school year. It is his fourth year at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry and there are spells to be learnt and (unluckily) Potions and Divination lessons to be attended. But Harry can't know that the atmosphere is darkening around him, and his worst enemy is preparing a fate that it seems will be inescapable …With characteristic wit, fast-paced humour and marvellous emotional depth, J.K. Rowling has proved herself yet again to be a master story-teller." (Summary found on Goodreads).
As I have said in every entry, I am biased towards the Harry Potter series. Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire is longer than the first three by a significant amount. It is around 700 pages depending on the version you have. It also has a great deal more violence than the first three. It is the first book that a somewhat important character dies. This can be troubling to some younger readers, thus the higher suggested age. I read it when I was eight, but I knew that it was a fictional book and I was not bothered by the violence. I would not recommended this novel if the reader is sensitive. The vocabulary is still higher than younger kids will understand and subject of crushes and dating are entered. Boys and girls fall in love and there is a prom type dance. Some kids may find that 14 is too young for love, but others may find it cute. Rowling keeps the original characters while still adding new characters, creatures, and drama. Overall this book is an outstanding addition to the well-loved series.

In Gear Global
What the customer said
Mike came highly recommended so I felt pretty confident that he'd understand what I wanted and be able to deliver it.
Before we got started on the site, Mike made sure he knew all about In Gear Global and what we're planning to do.
The Web Success process for site development was comprehensive. Each page was crafted with a particular purpose in mind and that made it easier to provide relevant content. Mike ruthlessly edited the content to not only convey the information I'd supplied but to cut out the fat and subtly persuade the reader that we're the right people to do business with.
We got off to a flying start with a newsletter that Mike had set up and have received excellent feedback from the team members and clients. We've had a number of comments that the site stands out from those found in our business area - and that has been really pleasing.
- Ian Gear, Chief Executive
The Challenge
To build a website for a new speciality consultancy area to highlight how it differentiates strongly from other consultants in that field and to communicate successfully to all the highly segmented audiences with very different needs and concerns: government, business, and science.
The Solution
In creating the site we leveraged off the existing logo and branding design. We also made great use of the client's huge resource of photographic images. This made a big difference in the look and feel of the site, taking it away from a potentially boring text-dominated format.We made sure to address each of the three audience sectors. This was critical as they are so divergent.
Upon launch an introduction newsletter was sent out, directing traffic to the new site.
The Result
A website that communicates a broad range of speciality services to diverse sets of stakeholders. The site provides a volume and level of content significantly higher than most in its class.

Email subscribers - yesterday's edition
Friday, August 23, 2019
To our email subscribers:
Yesterday's edition put all the photos that were centered or right-justified waaaaay off to the right margin.
It was caused by some errant style code that snuck in with the spreadsheet in the elections report.
Carl Dinse has cleaned out the code and today should be fine.
You may want to go to the web page to see yesterday's stories - or strangely enough, for some people, if you hit "reply" to the edition, the reply will be properly formatted.
We're still not sure how we can publish columns - election returns, lists of honor role students - and have them line up properly without bringing stray code, but Carl is researching.

Tuesday reader's view: Become familiar with developmental assets
To the editor:
I noted with interest the front page article in the Sept. 28, 2013 Daily News about the judicial hearing for two teens who robbed an Edenville service station ("Teens plead guilty in Monday's armed robbery"). One of the teens who drove the get-away vehicle said that he was approached earlier by the other youth who asked him to participate in the robbery plan. The driver indicated that he initially said, "no several times ... I finally gave in to the peer pressure." Midland County Probate Court Judge Dorene S. Allen, who presided over the hearing, indicated that it was important that the teen who drove the vehicle admitted that peer pressure affected his choice.
In the past several years, The Legacy Center has conducted two extensive studies on developmental assets in Midland County adolescents and how these character traits and attributes are strong protective factors against various risk-taking behaviors. The most impactful of these developmental assets is positive peers. The studies found, perhaps unsurprisingly, that youths who associate with other wholesome youths are significantly less likely to participate in risk-taking behaviors. The second and third most effective assets are similar to each other — restraint and resistance. Restraint is the ability to avoid the risk-taking situation in the first place while resistance is the ability to say "no" and to move away from the risky situation if or when confronted with it. If these three assets were in effect, this robbery likely would not have happened.
Along with many parents and families, a number of Midland County youth-serving agencies including the schools, community and family centers, Boy/Girl Scouts, 4-H, Big Brothers/Big Sisters, the ROCK and several faith-based organizations are incorporating developmental asset-building in their programs. In addition, once youth become Probate Court wards, Judge Allen, who has been a leader and strong proponent of this concept, also provides them similar evidence-based programs that seek to instill these protective factors. The results in the county thus far are stunning. Delinquency is down about 50 percent, rearrests are down about 70 percent and the county has saved nearly $3 million cumulatively over the past five years. Property loss and pain and suffering costs are correspondingly reduced as well.
I would urge all parents to become more familiar with the developmental assets concept and to learn where and how they can lead the effort with their own children. For more information, contact The Legacy Center, or visit the Youth Development page of our website at www.tlc4cs.org

The Pulmonary Vascular Research Institute (PVRI) is a charity that brings the best medical professionals in the world together who have an interest in pulmonary hypertension or pulmonary vascular disease (PVD). PVD can be more commonly described as high blood pressure in the lungs. It is a fatal illness, often mis- or undiagnosed, that can affect people of all ages and socio-economic backgrounds, including many fit young athletes. It is estimated that over 70 million people in the world suffer from PVD, although this figure was recently challenged by several observations. An echocardiography study in a general population in central Europe estimated 2.6% pulmonary hypertension (PH) prevalence (Moreira et al, PLoS One 10(6): e0130072, 2015) among hospitalised patients in the US, the diagnosis of PH increased several fold over the past decades and the Heart of Soweto Study demonstrated that in the context of urban migration, air pollution and high prevalence of infections approximately 20% of all hospitalised patients present with some variant of PH. Current estimates suggest that PH is the 4th most common form of heart disease, affecting around 200 million people across the globe.
The PVRI is the only global medical society dedicated to pulmonary hypertension and pulmonary vascular diseases. All our efforts, as an organisation, are to improve the care of patients with PVD throughout the world by raising awareness of PVD, facilitating research and encouraging the development of medicines to treat PVD.
We have established Regional and Specialist Task Forces all over the world to raise awareness of the disease and to facilitate research.
Our members
The PVRI has established itself as the professional international organisation fighting PVD on a global scale. Our network has expanded to over 6,300 people spread across 103 different countries worldwide, including an active membership of 1,250 PH professionals. We are immensely proud of our international reach and global representation. The PVRI is the only organisation in this disease area with a truly global reach.

Online educational content
Each year, we organise two large scientific meetings:
- The PVRI Annual World Congress on Pulmonary Vascular Disease, which always takes place at the end of January.
- The PVRI Drug Discovery & Development Symposium, which is held in June/July.
These events take place in different countries each year and are aimed at our members, the pharmaceutical industry and the drug regulatory bodies.
The scientific agenda includes conference talks, discussions, interviews and abstract presentations from our global network. The e-learning side of our site is populated by these lecture recordings and abstract submissions which allow us to educate all areas of the world that have access to the internet.
Task Forces
While our educational content is distributed online, our network of doctors and clinicians also help educate other professionals on the ground. Spanning over 103 different countries, our Task Forces specialise in eight different forms of the disease.

High design and high performance flooring from Polyflor, a UK commercial and residential vinyl flooring specialist, was recently used to give Barbakan Delicatessen in Chorlton, Manchester a makeover as part of their refurbishment project.
Barbakan Delicatessen is an award winning continental bakery and deli which was established in 1964 by the Najduch family and named after the historic gateway in Krakow, Poland. Popular amongst the Chorlton community for its freshly baked continental breads, Barbakan's refurbished shop features a bakery, deli counter and indoor seating.
Polyflor's hardwearing Expona Commercial PUR luxury vinyl tiles were installed by Salford based Newards Ltd flooring contractors to the shop floor area. The store owners chose the unique Blue Varnished Wood design from the collection which has the look of pseudo-industrial timber which has been stripped and varnished many times over to give a worn effect.
With a 2.5mm gauge and 0.55 wear layer, the Expona Commercial range features a total of 55 stunning wood, stone and abstract effect designs which are ideal for use in the retail sector and other heavy commercial environments where there is likely to be a high level of foot traffic. This product's robust polyurethane reinforcement (PUR) is cross linked and UV cured to provide superior cleaning benefits and a simple maintenance regime, a practical benefit for the everyday running of Barbakan Deli.
Frankie Najduch, Managing Director at Barbakan Delicatessen commented:
"We've had great feedback from our regular customers about the new look Barbakan Deli. The Expona range was perfect for us as it gave us lots of choice design-wise and is durable enough to cope with the many customers we have coming to the shop during our busiest periods."
Samples of Expona Commercial luxury vinyl tiles can be ordered free of charge on the Polyflor website or by calling the Polyflor Samples Direct Hotline on 0161 767 2551. The Expona Commercial range is also 100 per cent recyclable via the Recofloor vinyl take back scheme.

An editorial by the Houston Chronicle staff pretty much lays out their wish list for gun control legislation.
Guns don't kill people. Gangsters kill people. But Mexican narcotraffickers buy Texas guns, and thousands of people die as a result.Decades of corruption and maleficence at all levels of the Mexican .gov and police departments has nothing to do with the violence on the Mexican side of our border, it is all the fault of "Texas guns".
No turn of phrase can hide the link between gun sales in Texas and the violence just over the border. If we want Mexico's cartels under control for our own security, we need to halt their incredibly easy access to military-grade weapons on this side of the border.O.K., now you have my interest. Just where can I find this "...incredibly easy access to military-grade weapons on this side of the border"? If I want a "military-grade" firearm I have to get permission from my county's chief L.E.O., submit fingerprints, paperwork and $200 to the Feds, and wait four months or so for approval. This is all for a firearm that was built before 1986. Free Citizens have zero access to modern "military-grade" firearms.
Now you and I both know that the Chron is not talking about actual military-grade weapons in this editorial, they are talking about guns that look like military guns. You and I know there is a difference, many of the Chron's readers do not. This is not just an exaggeration on the part of the Chron editorial board, it is a falsification of facts intended to garner an anti-gun emotional response from their readers. It is, in fact, a lie. It is just one of the lies they attempt to get away with in this editorial.
The editorial goes on to point out that well over a thousand firearms found in Mexico were originally purchased here in Texas. They quote an article, from the Chron, that states most of these guns were purchased by "straw buyers".
The hysteria continues:
While buying guns is close to impossible in Mexico, consumers in Texas can purchase unlimited quantities of cheap imported assault weapons, or .50-caliber sniper rifles strong enough to shoot down helicopters. The stores peddling these weapons rarely break the law. The problem is there are few laws for them to break.Read that one again. So what laws are not there for us to break? Oh... in this one little paragraph the Chron is advocating for an import ban, an assault weapons ban, a limit of how many firearms can be purchased, and a .50 caliber ban.
The rest of the editorial is just as bad. The author bemoans the fact that we can't trace firearms (while at the same time pointing out where they were purchased) and calls for firearm registration. You would think this editorial was penned by Sarah Brady herself.
The Pistolero has his take on this editorial.

By Crimesider Staff, CBS News
SPRINGFIELD, Mass.
Neighbors of the man accused of holding a woman hostage witnessed concerning behavior from Stewart Weldon before police found three bodies on the property where authorities say he was living, reports the Boston Globe. According to the newspaper, Jerry Devalles said that he started walking his 21-year-old daughter to work last month after she complained that Weldon, who is being held on $1 million bail, was following her.
Another neighbor told that newspaper that on Sunday, the day Weldon, 40, was pulled over by police, he saw Weldon outside his home in the rain, "searching through the dirt like a madman." Devalles said he saw the man covered in dirt with a shovel.
CBS Boston reports that the Department of Children and Families took custody of a child from the home, which is owned by Weldon's mother.
The Globe also reports that Weldon was arrested three times in 2017 before police pulled him over Sunday and found him with the woman who told them he'd held her hostage. Most recently, according to the newspaper, he was seen assaulting a woman on the street, and when officers tried to arrest him h allegedly bit one's leg. Police reportedly found two knives on him. Court records reportedly indicate that he was released on $1,000 bail posted by his mother and fitted with a GPS device that he allegedly cut off.
Weldon was arrested May 27 after a car chase that ended when he crashed into a police cruiser and wrestled with officers. A woman in Weldon's car said he held her captive for a month, sexually assaulted her and beat her with a hammer and other objects, police said.
"Thank you for saving my life," the woman told officers, according to a police report. "I never thought I would get away."
The woman was taken to a hospital with what police called "grotesque and violent" injuries, including a possible fractured jaw, stab wounds to her abdomen, marks from being hit with a blunt object and a leg infection. She was still in the hospital on Friday, according to Hampden District Attorney Anthony Gulluni.
Weldon has pleaded not guilty to a variety of charges including kidnapping, sexually assault and torture. The public defender who represented Weldon at his arraignment didn't immediately return a message seeking comment.
Three days after his arrest, police began searching the home where Weldon lived and have discovered three bodies. At a press conference Friday morning, Gulluni said that the identities of the people found had not been determined but that the bodies were now with the medical examiner who would be performing autopsies.
He would not confirm the gender of the bodies found. A cause of death hasn't been determined.
Gulluni also said that authorities were using ground penetrating radar in a continued search of the property.
"Our expectation is we're going to be here for days, if not longer than that," Gulluni said.
