Harare and Washington have since 2002 experienced sour relations owing to the latter's imposition of economic sanctions on the former after the country embarked on fast-track land reform programme. Following on the move that was taken by the European Union to slap Harare with sanctions, the United States came up with the Zimbabwe Democracy and Economic Recovery Act, which has a raft of restrictive measures that have over the years crippled Zimbabwe's economy. However, the coming in of the new political dispensation in November led by President Emmerson Mnangagwa has somewhat thawed relations between the US and Zimbabwe. As the diplomatic career of the US ambassador to Zimbabwe HARRY K THOMAS (HT) comes to an end this month after 34 years in the Foreign Service, our reporter CHARITY RUZVIDZO (CR), managed to have a one-on-one session with the ambassador where he recounted his journey in Zimbabwe.
CR: Ambassador, you are retiring after 34 years in the Foreign Service and two terms in Zimbabwe. What have been your successes politically and economically?
HT: The United States has been the largest donor in Zimbabwe. One of the things we are most proud of is the PEPFAR programme for AIDS relief. The government's goals were 90-90-90 but Zimbabwe is going to be at a 95-95-95 target ahead of that, which is wonderful. We started working with the government of Zimbabwe attacking trafficking in persons; it's a global problem and modern-day form of slavery that's found in every corner of the globe, including the United States. I'm glad that we are working with the international office of migration as well as the government of Zimbabwe to stop that.
Most importantly, the blesser culture must be cursed, they must stop what they are doing and only a good economy will help with that. Last year, we were feeding 2.4 million people each day. Now, thanks to the good rains and good crops, we hope to see an improvement in food availability.
CR: Are you going to visit former President Mugabe before you depart for the States?
HT: You have a good sense of humour! No, I will not be visiting former President Mugabe, I will call on current President Mnangagwa as diplomatic protocol requires before we depart.
CR: What are your opinions on the economic sanctions imposed on Zimbabwe by the US given the warm relations that seem to now exist between Harare and Washington?
HT: Sanctions were issued by executive order and they are reissued every year.
The key, of course, would be free and fair elections and economic reforms.
The people to ask, in a few weeks we will have some very senior political delegations here, those are the people responsible for lifting sanctions or waiving sanctions and I would ask them because that's their responsibility.
I would bet, even though am retired, that it would be based on free, fair and credible elections.
Just this week, the Indigenisation Bill was passed, we are waiting to see property rights, am sure we are also waiting to see media, all politicians, political parties being given access to state media.
Those are the things in the constitution.
So we hope to see but I think you need to give the government some time because they have been in office a short while to make good on their promises.
But they are off to a good start in terms of BVR (biometric voter registration), new ZEC (Zimbabwe Economic Commission) chairperson; you have even invited international monitors and observers, for the first time since perhaps 1980.
CR: What have you managed to do to enhance Zimbabwe's education sector?
HT: We are so proud that Zimbabwe had three Rhodes scholars last year. When l was teaching in Arizona State, there were numerous Zimbabweans who were studying there, Masters and STEM (Science, Technology and Mathematics) there.
Almost every university in America, our most elite Harvard University and the second most elite, Yale, all have students from Zimbabwe and that's highly commendable. Also, James Manyika established a fellowship for a Zimbabwean each year at Harvard. That way they also gain more information and come back to Zimbabwe to help others.
CR: What role do you think the civic society plays in the promotion of democracy in Zimbabwe?
HT: Well, the civic society has always played a tremendous role and I expect that it will continue doing its part.
The US funds many civic societies and we want them to continue through the elections to ensure democracy.
One of the organisations that we fund is run by women, Heal Zimbabwe, it's a fantastic organisation. It aims to strengthen the peace-building efforts of local communities in Zimbabwe in order to prevent violence. We also promote the Musasa Project that helps women and girls who have been victims of domestic abuse. We are also on a campaign to help women access sanitary pads and the use of reusable sanitary pads and menstrual cups. In most rural areas, women have one or none to use. So, to help them with their health and dignity, the US will work with several organisations to assist those in poor communities.
CR: Prior to your deployment to Zimbabwe you worked in other countries. What are some of the unique characteristics that Zimbabwe has?
HT: Every country is different, no country is the same. I think the uniqueness of Zimbabwe is the love of the people to study. We had a group here, from the International Finance Corporation that was led by people from West Africa and South Africa. I asked them to ask Zimbabweans how many degrees they have and they were shocked to discover they had two or three degrees each. Zimbabweans are always going to school and their dedication to education is very high and commendable. You are a religious country and you highly value funeral wakes. Also, your humour even during the face of adversity makes you unique.
Now that Zimbabwe is in a new dispensation you all sound like people from my hometown in New York, you are talking freely and laughing. Freedom of speech is important, protect it, it's yours as is guaranteed by the constitution.
The fourth estate must also ensure it's protected.

Jeff Bingaman Quotes
11 Jeff Bingaman quotes:
"The diversion of Social Security revenues to private investment accounts would shift much of the risks of old-age back to low-income seniors, and pose very serious challenges to families who depend on social security's survivor and disability insurance benefits."
"[The Center for Constitutional Rights has called for] emergency action ... The conscience of our nation is up for grabs."
"People should not be imprisoned without having the ability to challenge the legality of that imprisonment."
"I have no doubt that Ms. Norton is an extremely decent and capable person ... I do have doubts about some of the policies she has promoted and whether they are consistent with the responsibilities of the job of Secretary of Interior."
"Today, energy prices are at historic highs. Some analysts estimate that energy price shocks this year could cost American consumers more than $40 billion. Speaking very frankly, we cannot afford this kind of expense."
"I support concrete and progressive immigration reform based on three primary criteria: family reunification, economic contributions, and humanitarian concerns."
"I strongly believe that securing our nation's borders is a fundamental responsibility of the federal government, ... This is not a burden that should fall on local communities that lack the resources to deal with the influx of illegal (immigrants) and the increase in border violence."
"This is a program that's very important for the low-income seniors who depend upon it, ... I don't think most of them are aware that Congress has failed to extend the program."
"Frankly, reconciling some of (her) past views with current testimony is not that easy, but I take Gale Norton at her word. Based on her testimony, because of the promises she made at the hearing, I will support her nomination."
"The truth is, this is something the administration would dearly like."
"Social Security is not a retirement savings plan; it is a social insurance program. It's a contract that says, as a society, we will look out for you and your family when you can no longer work."

An Overview On Car Battery Chargers
A car battery charger is one of those things you might not think about buying until you need it, but then you will wish you had the foresight to purchase one in advance. Choosing the right vehicle battery jumper or charger device depends on several factors unique to your situation.
The primary consideration to determine is what type of car battery charger will best suit your needs.
Vicki Liston is the writer, producer and narrator of "On The Fly…DIY," an award-winning home improvement and DIY show of unique project tutorials for the casual DIY'er.
"There are two basic types of car battery chargers: trickle and smart (also called multi-step) chargers," shares Liston. "I don't consider the float chargers to be actual 'chargers,' as they won't resurrect a dead battery and are only used to maintain the charge."
Learning the pros, cons and capabilities of a car battery charger type is helpful in the decision-making process.
"Trickle chargers are the most inexpensive," Liston says, "but they are also the slowest."
While this might seem like a downfall, it can be an advantage in certain situations.
"If you aren't in a major rush to recharge, a trickle unit will serve you well," explains Liston. "It's actually better for the battery to charge slower than faster as a fast charge can generate a lot of heat and damage the battery."
If safety is top of mind, a smart charger might be a better choice.
"Smart or multi-step chargers employ the use of a microprocessor to assess the battery and make automatic decisions about how to charge. The standard versions have the automatic stop feature to avoid overcharging, damage, and explosions," Liston points out. "They can also detect if you've accidentally connected the cables to the wrong terminals, called 'reverse polarity protection.' A trickle charger will ruin a battery if connected incorrectly while a smart charger just won't begin to charge at all. Understandably, these are the more expensive option, but they are also the safest."
Be sure to check the amp rating on a potential car battery charger, as this will let you know how quickly it will charge your battery.
"Trickle chargers are rated at below one amp so it may take a few days to fully charge a battery," Liston says. "Again, slower is better for the battery, but you might not have the luxury of waiting around that long and need it up and running in a hurry.
"Higher rated chargers can run around 20 amps and the emergency 'get this thing started NOW' type chargers can crank out 40 amps to get you on the road in a hot minute," continues Liston. "Some smart chargers allow you to choose a recharge setting based on your circumstances. You can set it lower when you have the time to wait and it won't expend unnecessary, damaging heat. Set it higher only when the occasion calls for speed. You'll have the best of both worlds in one charger."
DWYM Fun Fact
The materials used to make vehicle batteries are recycled more than any other material used in consumer products in the world. A whopping 99% of battery lead is recycled, compared with 55% of aluminum cans, 45% of newspaper and 26% of tires and glass bottles.
Used lead grids, components and ingots as well as used plastic cases and pellets from an old car battery can be recycled into lead grids, cases and components for new automotive batteries.
Unfortunately, people do not always recycle responsibly. An estimated 1.8 million used batteries end up in landfills and other dangerous places. An improperly dumped lead-acid battery can leak lead, acid and mercury into the ground, lakes and streams.
The good news is that recycling used vehicle batteries is hassle-free. Most automotive parts retailers or dealership service departments will handle it for you. Just drop it off at a participating retailer. You might even receive a credit toward your need battery or even a general store credit when you do, making it a win-win for everyone.
The cycle for recycling automotive batteries is indefinite. The components of each vehicle's battery are largely comprised of recycled lead and plastic, which can, in turn, be recycled over and over again.
The Car Battery Charger Buying Guide
- If you decide on a trickle car battery charger, Liston highly recommends an advanced model to ensure the safest operation possible. "The lower end models should not be 'attached and forgotten' as they will not stop charging when the battery has reached maximum capacity," advises Liston. "Because of this, they run the risk of overcharging and even causing an explosion. The higher-end models, usually referred to as advanced trickle chargers, can detect when a battery is fully charged and either stop or automatically switch over to 'float' mode to maintain the charge. "
- Since you should always put safety first, the right clamps are essential. "Whether you go with a trickle or a smart charger, I highly recommend looking for a model with spark-proof clamps," Liston notes. "Sparks can not only damage both the charger and the battery but they can cause fires so this safety feature should be a must."
- "If you are only looking to keep a car battery charged, opt for a 12-volt only model," suggests Liston. "However, if you've got other types of battery-operated vehicles, such as an ATV, boat, jet ski, riding lawn mower, or golf cart, you might want to consider a 6/12 or a 12/24 volt charger. This will allow you to use your charger in multiple applications instead of having a different charger for each volt size. 6/12/24 chargers are commercially available however they are extremely expensive and it's cheaper to own both a 6/12 and a 12/24 than one 6/12/24 version."

Imagine: what if you could make ONE SIMPLE CHANGE to your breathing, and notice an instant improvement in your singing?
Or, even better: what if you made not one, but four changes — and each of them would make your voice stronger? You'd be pretty excited!
If you are reading this — you are, probably, having some difficulty breathing with the lower part of your lungs, using your stomach or diaphragm.
Fortunately, there is a simple way to improve your breathing right now!
1. What is a diaphragm, how does it work, and why is it important for you?
2. Breathe to expand — not to raise! 80% diaphragmatic, 10% bronchial
3. When singing, all breathing is done through the mouth — never through the nose
4. Use a mirror for control
1. What is a diaphragm, how does it work, and why is it important for you? The diaphragm is a large, dome-shaped muscle located at the base of the lungs. It is the pump, that fills your lungs with air, and creates pressure necessary for speaking and singing.
Thoughtful diaphragmatic breathing is meant to help you use the diaphragm and other muscles correctly, especially when singing. Breathing exercises for singing are essential for this!
2. Breathe to expand — not to raise Put your hand on your chest right now, and take a light bronchial breath – around 10% of your total lung capacity. You are just filling up the bronchial space at the very top of your chest.
Now, exhale.
Put another hand on your stomach, right at your solar plexus. Take a slow diaphragmatic breath, you are going to fill that with air for a few seconds — feel the lower part of your lungs expanding forward and sideways.
And then add a 10% bronchial breath on top of that!
Yes, that only comes to 90% total. You should never start singing at a full 100% lung capacity, because air pressure will be too strong, and cause you to blast out, and expel a lot of air on your first note.
3. When singing, all breathing is done through the mouth — never through the nose. Breathing through the nose is for daily life — not for singing. Nasal passages are a winding, labyrinth-like structure, which is great for filtering, warming up and moistening the air before it hits your lungs. Excellent for every other activity, but no for singing — because it is noisy, and takes too long!
Breathing in through your mouth allows you to take in more air faster, quieter, and opens up your voice apparatus for beautiful resonance and tone.
4. Use a mirror for control. Watch yourself in the mirror sideways. It's a great way to see what you are doing at home! Practice this every day, and soon you will breathe this way effortlessly, and it will become second nature.
Breathing exercises for singers work well at the early stage of your regular vocal warm-ups. You'll be amazed at how much easier it is to achieve your vocal goals when you just learn to breathe!
If you are still having troubles figuring out the correct way to breathe by yourself, a great singing teacher can help you identify the breathing muscles and techniques you need to improve — book a lesson with a trusted vocal coach, or take an online lesson.
At VSA, we use these breathing technique and exercises — and much more — helping singers like yourself to level up their skill and confidence. Give us a ring, or CLICK HERE to learn more about our private singing lessons and start using diaphragmatic breathing in your singing professionally!

I think the 9938 on most geneve's is socketed, but it does have ALOT of pins - so it will be a pain to pull and a pain to reset, but that's what I would do next, up to you. Also, if I remember correctly the geneve uses a really odd clock crystal for the geneve, it's possible that's going bad, but I don't know if they are available anymore. I took out all the chips and reseated them again (memory, Eprom MDOS 1.0, TMS9995 and the Yamaha 9938, but still the same result. Went back to use the Composite output, which is stable no issues here (only difficult to read MDOS and colours are a bit impacted). I think I am back at troubleshooting the GBS8200 devices, I think these are the issues: 1. I need to remove the capacitor: https://github.com/ramapcsx2/gbs-control/wiki/GBS-8200-Variants 2. Add 100ohm resistor across sync and ground for RGBs input https://github.com/ramapcsx2/gbs-control/wiki/Hardware-Mod-Library Corrects sync level for 75 Ohm sources (such as game consoles) 3. Add a Sync Stripper circuit to RGBs input. Try this if sync is never quite stable Maybe need a SyncStripper ? https://github.com/ramapcsx2/gbs-control/wiki/Inputs:-SCART-adapter,-optional-sync-stripper 4. Maybe I have this issue: Due to the high capacitance, the SOG extraction circuit in the 5725 sees too much of any eventual video content, instead of just the synchronization pulses. This leads to frequent short sync losses when the picture content changes rapidly, for example on a flashing screen. https://github.com/ramapcsx2/gbs-control/wiki/Sync-on-Green-Capacitor-Replacements 5. https://github.com/ramapcsx2/gbs-control/wiki/RGB-Potentiometers This would correct the RGB termination resistance to the TV standard 75 Ohm. or use a non-GB8200 type of device and find another RGB (RGBS) 15.7 kHZ converter to VGA * any recommendations out of these 4 solutions: 1. https://www.ebay.com/itm/15Khz-CGA-RGB-RGsB-RGBS-VGA-XGA-Converter-Scaler-/323316354604?mkevt=1&siteid=1&mkcid=2&mkrid=711-153320-877651-5&source_name=google&mktype=pla&campaignid=10693959030&groupid=108029226440&targeted=pla-293946777986&MT_ID=&adpos=&device=c&googleloc=1012728&itemid=323316354604&merchantid=116792603&geo_id=199&gclid=Cj0KCQjwvb75BRD1ARIsAP6LcqtCxKQNS-sVTBXtc9GdFoO68GqCRcuB9gNN6DXz-dt0fkoCVwQhMaEaAiFnEALw_wcB 2. https://www.ebay.com/itm/MDA-CGA-EGA-to-VGA-Converter-on-Altera-FPGA-for-old-computers/143574569650?_trkparms=aid%3D1110011%26algo%3DHOMESPLICE.DISCLISTINGS%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D20191002092920%26meid%3D24dab42c13724f8babec9a2a80553149%26pid%3D100889%26rk%3D2%26rkt%3D12%26sd%3D164149429851%26itm%3D143574569650%26pmt%3D1%26noa%3D0%26pg%3D2332490%26algv%3Ddefault%26brand%3DUnbranded&_trksid=p2332490.c100889.m5204 3. https://www.serdashop.com/MCE2VGA 4.

Lately I've been wondering, I've been figuring out. How to live, how to breathe, how to tame this fire inside of me. I've been everywhere, yet nowhere, I've been happy and I've been sad. I've been searching for answers and I found some of them in my own head. They say practice makes perfect, but being practical is hard. Theoretical concepts are all I know, among emotions I overly show.
I struggle with time, time that's left, time that's passed. I find it hard to accept, the flow of life, acknowledging nothing really last. I try to grasp, but I don't even get close. So I try to capture it in words and songs, try to keep it close to home. But again, I ask myself: "Where do I live?" Do I live at home, or am I living inside my mind, am I stuck in my own damn head?
I focus on details, the littlest things in life. It keeps me grounded, in anxious times. Making it perfect, by making it worth less. Focus on my senses, try not to think. Thinking makes it worse, creating desires, hungers and thirsts. I don't need it, but I do.. I don't want, but I need you. Why is everything so binary, why can't it just be easy?
I'm happy with where I am, but I feel out of place. Maybe I always will, wherever I'll go. It's a feeling I've always known. I can keep running, but where am I running from? Is it craving, is it love, is it people, is it lust?
I try to organise, but there's too much to analyse. Pictures, words and numbers, feelings, dreams and wonders. I'm disconnecting, slowly yet fast and I try to comprehend it, but I can't take it, not like that.
I keep loving and hating, holding on to grudges, I keep waiting and waiting on myself and others. There are too many songs I wrote down, too many times by heart broke down. Broken things don't heal, fixing is an illusion. It's all settled in the background, always an infusion.
I see it all in perspective, every side of the story. Could either be positive or negative, a poison or a remedy. I know everything, yet I know nothing; I'm aware of both. Both ways, sideways, crossroads, every road is unknown.
I'm tangled up, strangled up, chased by my own fantasies. I'm creating and I'm destroying, I'm lost in my own memories. I'm falling, I'm soaring, I'm flying, I'm dying. Am I living, am I surviving, or is it something in between? Is it a common disease, is it one in a million or is it just something typical about me?
I need answers, but the questions are unclear. There's fog in my point of view, there's lies in my own truth. Keep running and running, running in circles. Bumping into walls, tripping upon the surface.
Let it go, let it be, let all that was caged be free. Don't hold on, your hands are bleeding. The rope is tight, silence's creeping.
I'm reading, but I'm not remembering, I'm storeing, but I'm not processing. I'm trying, but I am tired. Of life sometimes, other times of fighting.
I am the same, but I'm different. I'm changing, but I'm still me. Stop defining, defy the ego. It's not worth the suffer. Sell your thoughts and declutter.
Now close your eyes and sleep, life is good, stop those bad dreams.

Fuel Pump Warranty
Published by Chad Carnahan on Jul 5th 2018
Facet fuel pumps must pass a two step quality control process before they leave the plant, and we stand behind every product.
Pump problems almost always are a result of the installation of or the environment around the pump. The most common problem with replacement pumps is that the old filter is not replaced at the same time. If your filter is clogged and worthless, your new fuel pump cannot solve your fuel delivery problems on its own. Also, if you install a replacement pump in a filthy environment, it cannot solve your fuel delivery problems on its own. This is why we specify that a new filter be installed alongside your new pump in order to validate your warranty. And it is why we suggest that you clean the area around the fuel pump as much as possible before installation.
The required filter for each pump is listed on each pump's order page. If you have questions, let us know.

Computer Science 424
Computers have made it possible, even easy, to collect vast amounts of data from a wide variety of sources. It is not always clear, however, how to use that data, and how to extract useful information from it. This problem is faced in a tremendous range of business, medical and scientific applications. The purpose of this course is to teach some of the best and most general approaches to this broad problem. The course will explore both theoretical foundations and practical applications. Students will gain experience with several kinds of data, including text documents, biological data, signal, and images.

For the Church Phoenix
Last week I reflected on joining the team at Midwestern Baptist Theological Seminary. Today and tomorrow I would like to highlight some of the many resources MBTS offers. If you are a pastor, these are resources that will serve you well in the church. And if you are thinking of coming to MBTS then these are the type of messages you may have the opportunity of benefiting from first hand. Today I draw your attention to the series of messages by SBC leaders:
Midwestern Seminary hosted "For the Church Phoenix," its third in an annual series of micro-conferences, on June 13 at the Phoenix Convention Center during the 2017 Southern Baptist Convention annual meeting. The event featured leaders from across the SBC presenting on featured topics in a seven-minute TED Talk-like format.
Al Mohler, the president of Southern Baptist Theological Seminary presented on the topic, "Why Inerrancy Matters," stating the bottom line is that God's word is true, and when the Scripture speaks, God speaks.
Steve Gaines, SBC President and pastor of Bellevue Baptist Church, covered the subject, "Why Prayer Matters." In doing so, he explained that one simply needs to follow Jesus' example to understand this concept.
Thom Rainer, the president of LifeWay Christian Resources explained "Why Exclusivity Matters," during his presentation, but opened with the shocking statement, "There are many heretics in this room."
Owen Strachan, associate professor of Christian Theology at Midwestern Seminary, covered the day's fourth talk on "Why Biblical Manhood Matters." Strachan noted that today's cultural climate is not favorable to men. All signs point to a reduction in the role of men in everyday life.
Mark Dever, the pastor of Capitol Hill Baptist Church discussed "Why Baptism Matters" by providing a series of reasons. He noted that the ordinance matters, most notably, because Jesus was baptized, and that Jesus commanded all who believed in him to be baptized.
Jared Wilson, director of Content Strategy for Midwestern Seminary, managing editor of the "For the Church" website, examined the topic, "Why Discipleship Matters."Wilson noted that there is a discipleship deficit in our churches, but it doesn't stem from a lack of passion. Rather, it comes from a lack of understanding what discipleship really is.
Jason Allen, during the event's final presentation, explained, "Why Church Membership Matters." In doing so, he expressed a desire to give those in attendance an urgency toward maintaining a regenerate, meaningful church membership.
Matthew Barrett (PhD, The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary) is Associate Professor of Christian Theology at Midwestern Baptist Theological Seminary, as well as the founder and executive editor of Credo Magazine. He is the author of several books, including Salvation by Grace (P&R, 2013), Owen on the Christian Life (Crossway, 2015), God's Word Alone: The Authority of Scripture (Zondervan, 2016), and Reformation Theology: A Systematic Summary (Crossway, 2017). Currently he is the series editor of The 5 Solas Series with Zondervan. You can read more at MatthewMBarrett.com.

Dear June: I was a single parent for almost 11 years, raising my two kids by myself. I finally remarried to a man who also has two children. It didn't turn out the way we had planned, and his two children eventually moved out of town with another relative. Now my son seems to be off-track, and I will be starting counseling. Please advise a mother who is willing to do whatever is necessary for her son to become a productive citizen in society. -- M.A., Coral Springs
Dear M.A.: Going to counseling is a very good start. You both will have the opportunity to openly discuss your concerns with an objective party. Here are some suggestions I like to give to clients: Children are people too -- younger versions of ourselves. Sometimes we have to remember our own difficult characteristics and realize that our children may have inherited certain behaviors from us. Practice what you preach. You don't want your children to drink, smoke, use profanity or do drugs, then practice not doing these things yourself. They may not be following the negative habits or behaviors of their peers. They could be watching you.
Follow through. If you promise your children a reward or consequence, give it to them. Once they realize you are not spitting out idle threats or promises, it should give them motivation to do as you ask. By the way, this does not mean a reward for every little thing your child does right.
Family Forum. Set aside a day every week or month to have a discussion. At each meeting a different family member will bring the discussion to the table. Everyone should be able to verbalize his or her thoughts and feelings without getting attacked.
Special Time. Give each child individual attention. Set aside at least 15 minutes every day or an hour once a week when the child will know this is your special time to spend together. Do whatever suits you and your child's needs.
I hope these suggestions and your counseling will benefit you and your family. God bless.
June Hall appears every Thursday and Saturday. You can write to her c/o P.O. Box 17362, Fort Lauderdale, FL 33318 or send her e-mail at email@example.com. Please include a daytime phone number for verification.

Deploy an Analytics implementation to a development environment
Once a property has been created and configured in Launch, the libraries are ready to be deployed and code implemented on your site.
Create and configure a property for Adobe Analytics in Launch : Access the tool and create a space for your Analytics implementation.
Create adapters and environments
Launch accommodates many organizational workflows in deploying code. Follow these steps to create the minimum necessary components for an Analytics implementation. As a Launch admin, you can work within your organization to establish the correct workflow for deploying Adobe solutions.
- Go to Adobe Experience Platform Launch and log in if prompted.
- Click the Launch property that you intend to implement on your site.
- Click the Adapters tab, then click Add Adapter.
- Name it "Akamai", and select Akamai in the type dropdown. Click Save.
- Go to the Environments tab, then click Create New Environment.
- Select Development, name it "Dev Environment", then select the Akamai adapter from the dropdown. Click Create, then click Close.
- Click Add Environment, select Staging, name it "Staging Environment", then select the Akamai adapter. Click Create, then click Close.
- Click Add Environment again, select Production, name it "Production Environment", then select the Akamai adapter. Click Create, then click Close.
Build a dev library
Despite all the changes and configurations made so far, no code has actually been published. Creating a library, roughly translated as a collection of changes, allows the publishing of code to be used on your site.
- Go to Adobe Experience Platform Launch and log in if prompted.
- Click the Launch property that you intend to implement on your site.
- Click the Publishing tab, then click Add New Library.
- Name the library 'Initial changes', and select your development environment.
- Click Add All Changed Resources, which automatically lists Adobe Analytics, Identity Service, and Core.
- Click Save.
- Back on the publishing workflow screen, click the dropdown next to your new library, and click Build for Development. After a few seconds, the yellow dot on the library turns green, indicating the build was successful.
- Go to the Environments tab, then click on your development environment.
- Under 'Install Launch', copy the code blocks and provide them to your organization's website owners.
Install Launch on your website's development environment
If you control your website's code, implement the two blocks of code in their respective locations (in the  tag and just above the closing  tag) on every page of your site. This code is commonly placed in the site's overarching template. A blank page only containing implementation code would look like the following:
<!doctype html>   <meta charset="utf-8"> <title>Example page</title>
This is a test page.

Attempting to build fails.
A common reason is because elements already exist in other libraries pushed to staging or production. When initially creating libraries, ensure only changed resources are added to the library.

The only thing worse than standing in line to shop for goods around the holidays is standing in line to return them later. So we've picked out eight of the best stores for returns. These retailers combine longer than usual time limits on returns so you can wait until after the holiday rush to re-enter the store. Plus, many of these stores offer cash refunds, easy exchanges and fast, free shipping options so you can ditch the store all together. Photo Credit: Andrew Currie1 / 9

Brief Comments on the Voluntary Tax Compliance Scheme for Traders
FBR has proposed to introduce special tax regime for certain traders (individuals and associations of persons only) by inserting a new section viz 99A and Ninth Schedule in the Income Tax Ordinance, 2001 (the Ordinance). The Primary purpose of the Scheme is to broaden the tax net of the Government and to facilitate non-filers and certain filers to come into the tax net and regularize their tax affairs by paying tax liability on turnover, working capital, etc. in a simplified manner in respect of Tax Years 2015 to 2018.
Traders opting under the Scheme would be exempt for above referred tax years in respect of income tax audit and assessment under section 122(5A) of the Ordinance. Traders would also be exempt from the application of section 111(3) of the Ordinance with regard to undeclared source of income in any proceedings initiated against them subsequent to Tax Year 2018 to the extent of imputable income subjected to tax under the Scheme. It is pertinent to mention that no exemption is made available with regard to sales tax and federal excise duty.

Wendy's wants to give a sweet start to summer to Frosty fans everywhere. The fast food chain says they're bringing back 50-cent small Frosties for the summer.
Source: Wendy's via Facebook
"A 50¢ Small Frosty is almost like highway robbery, but we'll let you get away with it," the company wrote on its Instagram page.
Frosties for just 50 cents? Why, thank you, Wendy's.
Yes, a small Frosty will set you back 50 cents at Wendy's for a limited time, of course.
"The 50¢ Frosty offer is a certified fan favorite and we couldn't think of a better way to help our customers kick-off the summer," said Kurt Kane, Wendy's executive vice president, chief concept and marketing officer. "Everyone has their favorite way to enjoy our classic treat and really the only way you can go wrong is by not getting to Wendy's today to take advantage of this amazing deal before it's gone."
If you want to step up your Frosty game, the fast food chain also debuted a new Frosty Cookie Sundae for a limited time.

The new Frosty Cookie Sundae comes in two flavors: vanilla and chocolate. With your choice of frosty, the sweet treat is then topped with chocolate chunk cookie bites and Ghirardelli Chocolate Sauce.
Wendy's also made a spicy comeback by announcing the return of their beloved spicy chicken nuggets after a tweet teasing the return went viral.
There's no word on exactly when the item will officially hit menus, yet. However, the restaurant chain confirmed the return of the fan-favorite food item via Twitter.

Little known secrets about ReservesThings the patrons wish they knew:
When returning a reserve book and a person is not sitting right at the desk: The further across the desk you put the reserve book the faster we'll check it in. If you place the book on the middle portion of the desk we'll not hurry over to discharge it but walk over as soon as we finish what we're doing, if you place it up to the far edge we'll immediately walk over to check it in, and if you place it so that half the book is hanging off the far edge - well, then we'll immediately teleport to the location and telekinetically move the book through discharge instantaneously.
When standing at the desk, holding a reserve book and looking like the fool you are: Answer "I want to return this book." in response to the circulation worker's question of "Do you want to return this book?". Then, remain standing there looking like a fool until the worker then asks you "Is there something else I can help you with?" at which point you say "I want to renew that book."

Have you ever dreamed about investing in real estate in a foreign country? Wonder no more. Miranda Bothe, the founder of Paris Property Group, chatted with us about investing in real estate internationally and why more people are buying luxury properties in Paris. She also shared with us what she thinks contributed to the success of her company.
What is your professional background? How did it lead to your position with Paris Property Group?
I was an attorney in California before moving to Paris in 2003. We wanted to buy an apartment when we arrived, but it took us nearly a year and 40+ apartment visits to find the right place - despite the fact that my husband and I both spoke French and lived here full time. The closing process was vastly different from the one I was used to in the U.S., with formalities and a tax structure totally unfamiliar to me. The closing took 2 months, which was another big surprise.
The biggest challenge we faced was the frustrating lack of good, consolidated information about the market; so there was no way to ensure that you were seeing all the apartments that fit your criteria. In the U.S., we call this a multiple listing service (MLS) in which all the local agents share their listings and commissions, so that any one agent can show his client all the apartments for sale in that market. There is no MLS in Paris.
Therefore, a comprehensive search in Paris is about visiting agency after agency, searching website after website, and then visiting countless properties. I realized there was an important need for a custom real estate search service in Paris for international buyers for whom navigating the Paris real estate market is particularly challenging. I founded the company 10 years ago.
Please tell us more about Paris Property Group.
Paris Property Group is a full-service real estate agency that assists clients with both buying and selling property in Paris. Our initial focus was on property search services for buyers; we work with the client through a detailed interview to define the exact apartment they are hoping to find. We source properties through agencies, notaires, developers, and private sellers - about 1/3 of Paris properties sell without an agency involved - and prepare a comprehensive property report so our client sees in detail the good and bad features of each property. We oversee the negotiation, research the financial and legal situation of the building, and lead our client through the signing of the initial purchase agreement and through to close.
Through the first years, we had a number of sellers approach us to see if we could service their needs as well. Like buyers, many sellers were also frustrated that they were not getting a comprehensive services or true advocacy from their agents.
Our philosophy is the same when we work with sellers: we are your advocate in the market working to ensure your best selling price and conditions and representing your interests entirely from list through to close of the sale. Paris Property Group is unique in listing all our properties in MLS-style from the start; we share our listing fees with any agency that has a buyer to bring. This ensures that our listings get maximum exposure in the market and that they are sold quickly and at the best possible price.

Why should people purchase property in locations other than their home country?
Purchasing property where you don't live is a personal choice that's a challenge under the best of circumstances. For most of our clients, it's a mix of investment opportunity and a love for this beautiful city that inspires their decision to buy property in Paris. The key to success is to be aware that the purchase process will be a learning experience that is best approached with an open mind, flexibility, and a sense of adventure. Ultimately, owning a piece of Paris allows you the privilege of owning your piece of a historical and architectural gem - which itself is the reward.
What are some reasons that international investors should buy luxury real estate in France?
In the last years, luxury properties in France - particularly outside of the capital and a few mini-markets like the Cote d'Azur - have dropped significantly in price.
Do you think someone should focus on buying real estate in only one foreign country, or is diversity important?
I would definitely say one country at a time. The experience you have in one will still be different from the one you will have in the next, but you can figure out the approach that works best for you and then be an even better buyer in the next market. Building a portfolio of international properties will be exciting, but it can also be time-consuming after the purchase to make sure that these are managed correctly. Make sure you have the right resources on the ground to oversee the renovation, decorating, or upkeep of the property going forward.
What do you think most people should know about real estate?
I think it's important to really understand the market you are investing in: the prices, the investment opportunities, the architectural uniqueness, the profile of other investors, the tax and regulatory landscape, and the initiatives that are happening in that city and/or country. Knowledge is power. Understand how the process does - and doesn't - work. Know what you are - and are not - going to get out of your investment. Those are the key components for success.
Through the years, Paris Property Group has built a reputation as a key source of news and information about real estate in Paris. I think it's important that this take on its own identity separate from the real estate agency, since it should inform the public not just about my agency and my perspective, but about the wider market. I am moving those resources to a new website.
What are your future plans for Paris Property Group?
Paris Property Group has always been focused on doing only one thing: buying and selling real estate in Paris. We don't do mortgages, renovations, decorating, rentals, or anything else. What that means is we have a fantastic network of partner companies that we have cultivated over the last decade, each with a specialty that complements our own and with whom we work to give our clients all the services they need through and after the buying process. At the moment, I am exploring ways to enhance the value of these partnerships - in particular, looking to build a "best practices" label for the Paris real estate market under the PPG brand.
Separately from that, I continue my quest to solve the wider market information challenge that we discussed before: that good information about the Paris real estate market simply doesn't exist for international buyers. I have been playing with this idea for years, and am heading toward a solution. Stay tuned...
Please share with us anything that you think has contributed to the success of Paris Property Group.
Our company has been built on trust and confidence with our clients, as well as diligent work. My work philosophy can now be distilled into one idea: I want to work with good people. That means the people on my team, my clients, and my partners. That doesn't mean we don't have our hiccups, but it does mean that we are continually heading in the right direction to reach a goal that challenges us and makes us proud.

- Lab Technician (temp to perm)
- Research Laboratory in Falmer, Brighton, East Sussex
- Urgent contract with immediate start
- Around £11 / hour
- Monday to Friday, 8am – 4pm or 9am – 5pm (flexible)
- 3 months initially, with potential for permanent role with £21,000 salary
- Lab maintenance and support experience ESSENTIAL
An urgent contract has arisen for an experienced Lab Technician, to join an innovative research laboratory in Falmer, Brighton, East Sussex. We are looking for a hard-working, reliable individual with experience in servicing a commercial or academic laboratory, including managing lab consumables and other stocks, maintaining and repairing centrifuges and balances, checking CO2 / liquid nitrogen cylinders, moving and managing samples, and assisting with deliveries.

The Contract
You will work for 3 months initially, with a pay rate of around £11 / hour (plus additional allowance to cover statutory NI and holiday amounts). The lab will be looking to recruit a permanent member of staff so you could potentially apply to this internally, or your contract could well be extended beyond 3 months. The permanent equivalent salary would be £21,000.
You can work either 8am – 4pm or 9am – 5pm. Parking is available outside but it is chargeable, so you might prefer to travel by public transport (the lab is only a few minutes' walk from Falmer station).
The Role
This is a varied and busy position that supports a number of pioneering research projects. The lab has state-of-the-art autoclaves, centrifuges, liquid nitrogen and CO2 capabilities for sample storage and chemical processing. As the Lab Research Technician, you will be responsible for a number of routine and ad hoc duties including checking equipment (autoclaves, balances, centrifuges etc), washing and preparing glassware, sterilising equipment, checking stocks of consumables, placing orders for new consumables, collecting deliveries, moving samples etc. There will be some lifting required, so you need to be physically fit.
You must be a reliable, hard-working and approachable individual with some experience in a lab, whether a commercial laboratory, or a university / research / college laboratory. You must be physically fit, energetic, good-natured and willing to help with anything. A relevant qualification (e.g. NVQ, HNC, BSc) would be helpful but experience is more crucial. This contract will starts at the beginning of September, with interviews in mid-to-end August, and a prompt decision for the right candidate to start soon after the August bank holiday. Apply now!!

Who hasn't heard about the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge recently?
It seems like everyone is doing it and posting videos of the act online, from common people like you and me to well-known celebrities.
The ALS Ice Bucket Challenge truly is one of today's greatest trends.
The Ice Bucket Challenge, alternately called the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge, aims to promote awareness of the disease amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) while encouraging people to donate money to fund research on the disease.
The challenge is quite simple: a nominated participant chooses between dumping a bucket of ice water on his head and donating to charity. Videos of people accepting the challenge or opting to donate instead have been circulating online since July.
Sure, everyone's all fussed out (and for good cause and reason) about the Ice Bucket Challenge but how can it help you in your internet marketing campaign? A bucket of ice water dumped on your head certainly won't give your campaign a much-needed boost, won't it?
Well, here's how you just might be proven wrong.
There are times when jumping into the bandwagon doesn't seem to be quite helpful in getting you noticed, but there are times when the only way to attract attention is to keep up with what's in and what's new.
The ALS Ice Bucket Challenge is without a doubt one great way to attract attention and direct traffic to your site, while promoting awareness of the disease.
Picture this: A prospective lead is browsing online looking for videos of people who have accepted the Ice Bucket Challenge and happens to come across your video. He clicks on it, watches it for a couple of minutes, probably learns about your website through in-video links and the likes, and goes straight to your website after learning of your good deed.
Now, that may sound a little far-fetched but it certainly is one of the possibilities your challenge video may bring.
This isn't the only way you can use trends to the best of your advantage.
You can also incorporate trending hashtags in some of your posts to increase visibility and online presence, especially if you are using social networking platforms such as Facebook and Twitter. Your posts will reach more people, and these very just might visit your site and help you with your internet marketing campaign.
Internet marketing is no exact science.
There are several different ways to give your campaign a boost, and each technique is worth trying. Keeping up with trends, just like the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge, will help you get noticed.
Bring on out the bucket of ice water, improve your online presence and visibility while doing it all for a good cause!

The human body is composed of trillions of cells that fulfill highly specialized functions in the body, such that acting as a protective barrier against the environment, fighting microbial infections and transmitting nerve signals. In order to carry out these many functions, each type of cell must be able to control its shape with small molecular machines found inside our cells. When these machines have defects, cells may become deformed and this can predispose us to developing different kinds of diseases, such as neuro- and muscle-degenerative disorders and cancer. While most research has focused on the role of protein machines in cellular organization, our laboratory had found that another class of molecules, ribonucleic acids (RNA), also appear to play a major role in this regulation. We use a variety of experimental approaches, including genetic studies of human cells and the fruit fly (Drosophila), as well as bioinformatics approaches, to characterize the roles of RNA molecules in the regulation of cellular morphology These studies will help us better understand the origin of diseases that involve defects in cellular organization.
