I first heard it in reference to dojo practice. It is a reason to always finish a technique, even if you make a mistake or do the wrong technique. Because every interaction is unique, even between people who work out together regularly, the vectors and energy are never identical, you should always fully finish with intent.
It also means at any gathering, a family picnic for example, you should treasure the group and the individuals that are there. It is a unique gathering and it may be the last time you get to be with them. Even if you see them every week, this moment is unique as we are all changing. It encompasses the bittersweet nature of this life and the transient nature of our lives.

LVMC Grade Declines From C To D
November 12, 2018. There's plenty of important work to do for the new Board members. The Leapfrog Hospital Grade for LVMC has dropped from a C grade in the Spring of 2018 to a D grade for the Fall of 2018. This reflects a deteriorating quality of care. Out of 2,571 Leapfrog rated hospitals, LVMC was rated in the lower 162 out of 2,571 hospitals. That's not good. The lower grade reflects directly on the COO's management of LVMC.
According to an analysis of the Leapfrog data by the John Hopkins University School of Medicine's Armstrong Institute for Patient Safety and Quality, a D grade means a 49.8% greater chance of avoidable death at LVMC, compared to an A Grade hospital.
How The Leapfrog Hospital Grade Is Determined
To calculate the grade Leapfrog used data from the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality, the American Hospital Association's annual survey, CDC, CMS, and the Leapfrog Hospital Survey.
However, LVMC declined to report on various measures including the simple practice of handwashing. Why would the hospital refuse to report on handwashing by hospital staff?
LVMC Declined to Report The Following Data
- Specially trained doctors for ICU patients.
- Effective leadership to prevent errors.
- The staff works together to prevent errors.
- Track and reduce risks to patients.
- Enough qualified nurses.
- Handwashing.

Apart from hot deals, raining offers and some breath taking discounts, what are the other factors, which are pushing the Indian consumers towards online shopping? I think Online Retailers are simply playing on the human instinct. The entire concept of bringing any product on the web is itself a big hit formula. The moment any product or services goes online, the chances of it being sold surges with a huge percentage at that moment only.
Practically every consumer product is being sold online. Out of all, apparels are the most favorite and no doubt online public is buying it like hot cakes. Manufacturers, Retailers as well as the buyers, literally- all are in the winning sphere.
If you will get a pack of 3 T-Shirts in just Rs 999 then will you say no? Even if bags full of New Clothes are there in your wardrobe, still you will not say no. That is human Psychology. You simply can't beat it!
So, it's better to give up and go with an upbeat mood on these top 5 websites which are exceptionally good for buying Men's Clothing in India.
If you want to be trendy, stylish and rock on the floor, then Jabong can help you a lot as there is an online fashion week going on there, till 30th Nov. With more than 1000 brands and above 100,000 styles, do you have any doubt that you can't get the clothes of your choice? Some of the most sought after international fashion brands are exclusively there on Jabong. You can buy 3 Men's T-Shirts or Polos is @ Rs 999. So for what you are waiting?
Myntra and Jabong- these two Top Online Retailers of India are primarily known for selling international fashion brands. There are really, most trendiest sorts of men's clothing on Myntra, for all purpose. The list starts form Tees and ends till formal shirts and trousers. On Pepe Jeans London-you can save 50%. You can also go for winter essentials like overcoat, sweater, Mufflers, Caps and Gloves.
It is a kind initiative by Aditya Birla Nuvo. Sale is back! This is what it has to say with its loyal customers. There is a flat 45% off any items that you purchase. Plus if you are buying Louis Phillipe brands, then there is genuine reason to be even happier as you will get 15% cash back. In case of Peter England apparels, there is an offer of 20% cash back. So here is an excellent time to fill both your pockets and your shopping bags!
If you are a shopper of quality items, then you should not think beyond Shopperstop, as its total business philosophy is to sell only quality items and nothing else. It may be true that you can't get that much discount as others may be offering, but they are worth buying specially speaking in the terms of quality, design, style and fit.
You can also consider this site for buying men's clothing, as it features good numbers of fashion brands on its portal. Some of the featured brands are Puma, Wrangler, Will Lifestyle, French Connection, Daniel Hechter. You are getting a huge discount on Mens's Clothing, somewhere between 50%-60% off on all items!
Really A great time to shop!

"Honest Graft" Land Deals In The Capitol
Are you kidding me???? HONEST graft!!! That was the title of the news article I started to read just now. Seems that the lawmakers, you know the ones, have some questionable land deals afoot. This is apparently raising some serious alarms throughout Washington, as it should.
The deals are all different but the idea is the same. The lawmakers, alone or with others, buy up land. Then they push for changes in a law or federal spending which raises the value of the land. So, what happens now? You guessed it. Land prices go up. Lawmaker sells the land making a tidy profit. Isn't there something really wrong with this picture? I would say!!! Can you say INSIDER INFORMATION? The deals are not technically illegal but they are not honest. And any congressperson or senator that does this type of deal needs to go home.
And hang on here. If we were to do this, some lawmaker would find a way to make it illegal...as they should really....but it's going to be our hides on the line, not theirs.
So, what should be done? Well, for starters, all of the "lawmakers" that are doing this need to vacate their offices. This is underhanded at the very least.
A series of questionable land deals involving U.S. lawmakers have raised alarms among government watchdogs, who fear such dubious arrangements are on the rise.
"Everyone's been trying to catch up to this phenomenon," said Keith Ashdown of Washington, D.C.-based Taxpayers for Common Sense.
"In Congress, land deals are more popular than a shoe sale at Nordstroms," quipped Naomi Seligman-Steiner of the left-leaning anti-corruption group, Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington (CREW). Her group has called for IRS and FBI investigations into several recent land sales by lawmakers that have been linked to their public actions.

Do you have a website for your company? It could be your own business or any other company that you work for. Whatever it is, having a website is always a good thing. Sometimes you may have seen people who have their personal websites. So that it is not a new thing for any small or large entity to have a website.
If someone asks you the purpose of this, what would be your answer? Basically, we maintain a website with the aim of marketing our product or service. It may comprise of product details, different types of offers available for customers etc. The ultimate objective of all these activities, is to satisfy your end consumer, keeping in mind that the customer is the king. Having a website by paying a monthly or annual subscription alone would not be helpful. Because, it doesn't guarantee that there will be a lot people who log in and view what you have published. For instance, if one of your customers type the name of your company on Google and if he doesn't see your website being appeared at a glance, there's a high probability that you may lose that customer. Hence, you have to make sure and do things in order to bring it to the first page of Google.
Whatever said and done, this is not an easy thing to do. Getting it to the first requires a lot of things. First, the search engine will look at the content of your website. For example, if you run an educational institute, then it may include the information about the courses you conduct, prices, scholarship and various other things. If the search engine finds it as a very informative website, then it will top the list automatically.
One of the most effective things you can do to achieve this is, adding fresh content. Google's policy is that they favour websites which have brand new stuff such as new articles, videos, latest types of graphic and also good quality photos. It will help you to retain the users for a long span of time. The reason is, when they get attracted, they will hardy leave.
Google + button is another trick to hold a top rank in the list. Because, Google have stated that any website which doesn't indicate that button will easily slip the higher rankings. This is a strategy used by Google, to encourage the owners of websites.
What do you think? If your one is still not visible at a glance, you are behind the game. Therefore, it is your baby to change it in the best possible way and you can be proud when you see it topping the list.

Jared Kushner will cooperate with FBI investigation into Russia election collusion scandal
Well, this is a little refreshing. As we learned earlier this week, Jared Kushner is under scrutiny by the FBI for his alleged role in the Russia election collusion scandal and today we have learned that he will cooperate if (when) he is contacted by the FBI. This certainly sounds as if he feels he has done nothing wrong, and of course he is not accused of committing a crime.
Here is more:
White House senior adviser Jared Kushner said he would cooperate with any investigation into the Trump campaign's ties to Russia following reports that he is under FBI scrutiny.
Multiple news outlets reported on Thursday that investigators were focused on a series of meetings that Kushner, Donald Trump's son-in-law, held with Russian officials last year as part of the inquiry into Russian interference in the 2016 election.
"Mr Kushner previously volunteered to share with Congress what he knows about these meetings," attorney Jamie Gorelick said in a statement on Thursday. "He will do the same if he is contacted in connection with any other inquiry."
In a time when so many people–from Eric Holder to Lois Lerner to Bryan Pagliano to Michael Flynn to name a few off the top of my head–are unwilling to cooperate with Federal investigations this is refreshing. I still believe the Russia allegations are trumped up charges (pardon the pun) geared at hiding the possibility that DNC insider Seth Rich was behind the leaks to WikiLeaks but the investigation continues so it must be dealt with.
Just how much he actually cooperates is still a question; will he pull the I don't remember/I don't recall strategy or will he be forthcoming with all he knows? Personally I do not trust Jared Kushner and honestly I do not trust Ivanka Trump either, I think they are trying to pull the President to the left–especially on issues such as global warming–but if he does cooperate fully it will be an indication the Trump campaign (at least knowingly) was not colluding with Russia.

Four Idiots take on the Prague Mind Maze
"I want to be at Charles Bridge for sunset tonight so I can take photos."
"Yeah, we should have enough time to get there for it"
"What do you mean? We have nothing planned other than walking around and making Pivo stops."
"I booked something for 4:30pm. It's a surprise. "
"If you booked us on a segway tour, I'm not going. Those things are so lame."
"Don't you worry, it'll be fun…"
And that's how we found out Matt booked us on a secret activity which we spent the next 4 hours hassling him about trying to guess what it was. Finally, after a particularly vague hint of "it's more mental than physical" I guessed it – a live 'escape room' game called Mind Maze.
The Prague Mind Maze
The first time I heard of a Mind Maze escape room was when we were in Cologne last year. It was one of the top rated activities on TripAdvisor there which is also true for Prague. We had spoken about doing it at the time in Cologne but when its just the two of you there we thought it might be a little lame and Matt thought since there were the four of us this time we should definitely take advantage and give it a go.
The premise of Mind Maze, like all the other escape room games that have popped up all around European cities, is that you are locked in a room full of puzzles and clues which you have to solve together in order to unlock yourselves from the room.
And you have only one hour to do it.
Sounds pretty easy, right?
We chose to do the first room they set up at Prague Mind Maze called the Alchemist's Chamber. The goal was to solve all the clues and find the Philosopher's Stone that can turn any metal in to gold.
Clearly I wasn't really listening to the instructions before we entered the room because I fully expected them to at least give us the first hint and point us in the right direction. They didn't. It took 15 minutes of us picking up random objects, taking the room to pieces and looking around with confused expressions before we reluctantly asked for a hint on our walkie talkie. Which was so obvious we felt like idiots for asking.
The fact that every 15 minutes our intense concentration was interrupted by some eerie hooting owls coming over the speaker made us panic early when we weren't making headway.
I can't really explain all the fun little puzzles and codes we had to solve (that would kind of ruin it for everyone who wants to try the Prague Mind Maze!) but there was a recurring theme of us asking for hints over the next hour.
We found ourselves being several steps ahead and solving the complex clues quite quickly but could not for the life of us figure out the easy and obvious clues that were staring us right in the face.
So did we escape?
We finally had a few breakthroughs right at the end and our 'official' time to escape the room was a very convenient 59:59….cut it close didn't we?
Afterwards the girl working there told us that there was another room that we could try called Enigma "…but it's quite a bit harder".
Maybe next time!
We had a lot of fun and definitely learnt to not expect every clue to be impossible to figure out. We had so much fun that I know I'll be checking to see if any future destinations have another Mind Maze for us to try. It also turns out there's one close to where we live so we're planning on going there to redeem our horrible first attempt.

- DeWalt DW 735 Shelix replacement head
- Brand: DeWalt | Category: Planers
Several months ago I posted a negative review on the Shelix replacement head for my Dewalt 735. The problem was that the replacement heads are normally slightly smaller in diameter which makes it possible to install a Shelix with all the cutters in place through the main bearing seat on the drive end. However, I found the reduced diameter to be a problem as now I had snipe and a reduced cutting range and increased roller pressure.
After a couple of phone calls and emails to Byrd Tool, the maker of Shelix, they agreed to replace my Shelix with one of a larger diameter matching the cutting diameter of the original Dewalt head. The problem becomes that it is necessary to remove most of the cutters so that the head will fit trough the bearing seat on the drive end. There's no way that the head can be installed with all the cutters in place. So off I went to Harbor Freight for a torque wrench (less then $20) and then removed the cutters. The new head installed without a problem and while a bit time consuming, it is not difficult to reinstall the cutters and torque them to the appropriate setting.
The end result is that I've got a machine that gives a beautiful cut and the snipe has vanished, the cutting depth is back to the original range and it performs to my satisfaction. Byrd Tool really came through for me and makes me a really happy owner of a Dewalt with a spiral cutting head.

I'm surprised they don't make the full size head standard. I don't think removing and reinstalling the inserts would be an issue for anyone as at some point the inserts will need replaced anyhow.
Also that is great that they worked with you to resolve your issues as this review is sure to bring them more sales for replacement heads!
#6 posted 05-03-2016 04:46 AM
wow they went above and beyond for you. I wonder if a simple spacer could be used under each of the inserts for each of us that currently have the undersized version to get back to the factory size like you have.
does yours still have the same amount of cutters
so far mine has worked fine and I did not experience the problems you did
#7 posted 05-03-2016 10:18 AM
Same number of carbide cutters. Since the head is shaped to receive the cutters and keep them in the proper position, I doubt that you could simply put a spacer under each one as it would be difficult to prevent rotation of the cutter.

This is a really great post! I am strongly considering the Shelix for my DW735 and the only drawback I have read about is the introduction of snipe. Sounds like this size difference is what was causing it. Is there a different model/reference number on your replacement? Thanks for the info!

So I had a DW735… used it regularly for a few years… sold it to a friend who wanted to change it out to the Byrd-shellix cutters. He did…. and is very happy with it! Said it runs a bit quieter and he feels like he has a solid planer for what he has invested in it. (me… I replaced it with a Powermatic 15" planer which is UN frigging BELIEVABLE!)

You know how sometimes you see commercials for things and you think,
"I really wish that would work. I really wish it would end all my troubles like it says it will. I really wish that product wouldn't entirely suck after I spend all my money on it. But something in me just says it's too good to be true."?
But then every once in a while a product comes out that actually does end your troubles? And it's a miracle? Like Diet Mountain Dew?
Well this is one for me...
Breathe Right Strips.
When I was pregnant, both times, I couldn't breathe. My nasal passages just closed up tight. Nothing in, nothing out. (The nothing out part wasn't so bad.) Nothing else I tried, which is very little when you're pregnant, worked. And eventually I just stopped sleeping. Lack of sleep is one of the worst things ever! It's worse than no carbs x 10! OK, maybe x 2. Let's not get carried away here. But still, night after night it wears on you. You feel like you want to die. You dread bedtime instead of looking forward to it. You are quite sure when you lie down to sleep at night that you will stop breathing altogether and orphan your children. So when I finally tried these Breathe Right Strips, assuming they'd be frauds like most other things you see on TV, and found that they worked brilliantly, it was a little miracle. Like Fat-free Greek yogurt. Only more chewy.
I still use them. Any time I get congested or sick or feel like reminiscing on the glory days of late pregnancy, I wear one to bed. And sweet dreams is my reward. Not a single orphaned child yet.

Ipse inflammatus scelere et furore in forum venit; ardebant oculi, toto ex ore crudelitas eminebat. exspectabant omnes quo tandem progressurus aut quidnam acturus esset, cum repente hominem proripi atque in foro medio nudari ac deligari et virgas expediri iubet. clamabat ille miser se civem esse Romanum, municipem Consanum; meruisse cum L. Raecio, splendidissimo equite Romano, qui Panhormi negotiaretur, ex quo haec Verres scire posset. tum iste, se comperisse eum speculandi causa in Siciliam a ducibus fugitivorum esse missum; cuius rei neque index neque vestigium aliquod neque suspicio cuiquam esset ulla; deinde iubet undique hominem vehementissime verberari. caedebatur virgis in medio foro Messanae civis Romanus, iudices, cum interea nullus gemitus, nulla vox alia illius miseri inter dolorem crepitumque plagarum audiebatur nisi haec, "Civis Romanus sum." hac se commemoratione civitatis omnia verbera depulsurum cruciatumque a corpore deiecturum arbitrabatur; is non modo hoc non perfecit, ut virgarum vim deprecaretur, sed cum imploraret saepius usurparetque nomen civitatis, crux,—crux, inquam,—infelici et aerumnoso, qui numquam istam pestem viderat, comparabatur.
(Cicero, In Verrem 2.5.161-162)
Then he* made for the market-place, on fire with mad and wicked rage, his eyes blazing, and cruelty showing clearly in every feature of his face. Everyone was wondering how far he would go and what he was meaning to do, when he suddenly ordered the man to be flung down, stripped naked and tied up in the open market-place, and rods to be got ready. The unhappy man cried out that he was a Roman citizen, a burgess of Consa; that he had served in the army under the distinguished Roman knight Lucius Raecius, who was in business at Panhormus and could assure Verres of the truth of his story. To this Verres replied that he had discovered that Gavius had een sent to Sicily as a spy by the leaders of the fugitive army, a charge which was brought by no informer, for which there was no evidence, and which nobody saw any reason to believe. He then ordered the man to be flogged severely all over his body. There in the open market-place of Messana a Roman citizen, gentlemen, was beaten with rods; and all the while, amid the crack of the falling blows, no groan was heard from his lips in his agony except "I am a Roman citizen." By thus proclaiming his citizenship he had been hoping to avert all those blows and shield his body from torture; yet not only did he fail to secure escape from those cruel rods, but when he persisted in his entreaties and his appeal to his citizen rights, a cross was made ready—yes, a cross, for that hapless and broken sufferer, who had never seen such an accursed thing till then.

Yale University is suing the state of Connecticut after they put in a bid to turn single-sex bathrooms into gender neutral, rather than specifically male or female.
The illustrious school is furious that the Connecticut government denied them permission to flip the bathrooms, so they have filed an appeal to the state's Superior Court.
The school claims they want to make the bathrooms gender neutral to accommodate the LGBT community on campus. However, when they do that, they alienate the rest of the students.
It is not safe for restrooms to be gender neutral unless they are literally a single stall restroom that is for use of one person at a time. When toilets are open to anyone at anytime, that also creates open doors for sexual assaults.
Trending: Government Forces Churches To Perform Gay Marriage
The state's building code instructs all buildings to have a certain number of bathrooms labelled by gender. According to the current laws, if Yale decides to list all single-gender bathrooms as gender neutral, the school will have to build additional gender-exclusive bathrooms.
The university is arguing in the lawsuit that the school has no space for the new single-gender bathrooms and claims that a relief from the building code would help transgender people to use the bathroom.
I find it interesting that Yale has been around since October 9, 1701 and this is suddenly a problem. Perhaps they should create a therapy for these mentally ill people who are so confused about their gender that they do not even know which restroom to use, rather than put every other person's safety in jeopardy.
A spokesman for Democrat Connecticut Governor Dannel Malloy told Reuters that Yale's appeal is likely to be successful.
"We stand firmly with Yale in their effort to create a more welcoming campus," she said. "This has been a priority for Governor Malloy's administration and, now that this issue has been brought to our attention, we are prepared to work with Yale toward a solution."
The Ivy League university has decided to turn all bathrooms into gender neutral toilets after a progressive student group, OutLaws, successfully campaigned for the change and received a support from 25 other organizations in the state.
Rachel Luban, a member of the student group, told the Yale Daily News: "This feels important to me because it's so basic — we want to use the bathroom in peace, without worrying about being late or running far afield just to pee."
I hope they lose and I hope they lose hard! This is senseless and ridiculous. They need to stick to educating and leave political correctness out of it.

Publisher Description
The cunning old outlaw they call Striker just busted out of the Laramie lock-up with more than mayhem on his twisted mind!

Sen. John Ensign (R-Nev.) announced Thursday he will resign his seat effective May 3.
"It is with tremendous sadness that I officially hand over the Senate seat that I have held for eleven years," he said in a statement. "The turbulence of these last few years is greatly surpassed by the incredible privilege that I feel to have been entrusted to serve the people of Nevada. I can honestly say that being a United States senator has been the honor of my life."
The senator plans to send his resignation letter to Vice President Joe BidenJoe BidenHarris to travel to Texas Friday after polls show tie between Trump, Biden Florida heat sends a dozen Trump rally attendees to hospital Harris more often the target of online misinformation than Pence: report MORE on Friday.
Ensign is under a Senate Ethics Committee investigation over claims he violated ethics rules in the aftermath of an affair with Cynthia Hampton, the wife of former top aide Doug Hampton, whom he allegedly helped obtain a lucrative lobbying job.
He cited the investigation in his statement.
"I will not continue to subject my family, my constituents, or the Senate to any further rounds of investigation, depositions, drawn out proceedings, or especially public hearings. For my family and me, this continued personal cost is simply too great," he said.
The committee ramped up its investigation earlier this year, including hiring an outside counsel. The investigation would be dropped, however, if Ensign were no longer a member of the Senate.
The resignation announcement started speculation the committee was closing in the senator.
"First started hearing rumblings of Ensign resignation earlier this week. No other reason (outside of health) than ethics was moving ahead," Nevada political reporter Jon Ralston, who first reported the news, tweeted Thursday.
Ensign noted he was "hopeful" that the dismissal of other federal investigations would end the ethics investigation.
"I am gratified that, after extended investigations, both the Department of Justice and the Federal Election Commission saw no grounds on which to charge me with improper conduct. I was hopeful that, with the closure of these investigations against me the wear and tear on my family and me would soon be over. This was not the case," he said.
Reached Thursday night by phone, Ensign's lawyer, Robert Walker, who is representing him in regards to the ethics probe, declined to comment.
Democrat Harry ReidHarry Mason ReidMcConnell and Schumer's relationship shredded after court brawl The Hill's Morning Report - Sponsored by Facebook - Justice Barrett joins court; one week until Election Day GOP Senate confirms Trump Supreme Court pick to succeed Ginsburg MORE, Nevada's senior senator, said that Ensign had served the state well.
"He was a strong advocate for Nevada, and worked for many years to improve our state," Reid said in a statement.
"I know this is a difficult time for the family and I wish them all well as they work through it," he added.
Ensign said earlier this year he would run for reelection, but he was under heavy pressure from the party to step aside over concerns the fallout from his admitted affair would hurt their chances to retain his seat.
He announced in March he would not run for a third term.
Rep. Dean HellerDean Arthur HellerOn The Trail: Democrats plan to hammer Trump on Social Security, Medicare Lobbying World Democrats spend big to put Senate in play MORE (R-Nev.) has already announced he's running for Ensign's seat, and it's possible Republican Gov. Brian Sandoval would appoint him as Ensign's replacement.
If he's appointed, it would give Heller an advantage over Rep. Shelley Berkley (D-Nev.), his likely general election opponent.
Berkley was heavily recruited by Democrats to run and is considered the strongest competition for Heller. She quickly won the backing of Reid and the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee (DSCC).
Guy Cecil, Executive Director of the DSCC, expressed confidence in Berkley.
"There will be a very clear choice for Nevadans between an uncompromising extremist like Dean Heller, who wants to end Medicare and cut loans for small businesses to give more tax breaks for the very rich, and Shelley Berkley, a true fighter for Nevada's economy and middle class. Nevada will remain a top target for Senate Democrats," he said in a statement Thursday.
Berkley does have to get through a primary, however. Byron Georgiou, a millionaire capable of self-funding, is also in the race. He has banked around $1.1 million, which includes $500,000 of his own money.
The congresswoman has a little more than $1.5 million cash on hand, according to her latest Federal Election Commission filing, while Heller has around $1.4 million.
Democrats have high hopes of winning the seat. The party has to defend 23 seats in 2012 and, if President Obama wins reelection, Republicans only need a net gain of four seats to win control of the upper chamber.
According to Nevada law, Sandoval would then have to call a special election for Heller's House seat. Republican Sharron Angle, who lost her bid to replace Reid last year, is running for Heller's seat.
Nevada Lt. Gov. Brian Krolicki (R) is also likely to run for Heller's House seat but hasn't made a formal announcement.
Earlier this month, Hampton, Ensign's former chief of staff, plead not guilty to charges that he circumvented the federal "revolving door" law. The Department of Justice investigated allegations that Ensign violated federal law by helping Hampton obtain a job, but there were no charges filed.
Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington (CREW), which has long called for Ensign's resignation, put out a statement praising the senator's decision but pointing to the politics likely behind it.
"The truth no one is likely to admit is that Sen. Ensign is being pushed out to give the Republican party a leg up in the 2012 election by allowing Governor Brian Sandoval to appoint Rep. Dean Heller (R-Nev.) to the seat so he can run with all the advantages of incumbency," CREW executive director Melanie Sloan said.

Jerry Cocreham Moore, the director of the UT Dallas Career Center for 19 years, died in May at the age of 92.
As director of career planning and placement from 1976 to 1995, Moore helped hundreds of students find jobs and careers. Many of those students credited her with helping them find their direction in life and kept in touch with her long after they graduated.
"She was really a mentor to me," said Susan Chizeck, a faculty member in the School of Interdisciplinary Studies who worked with Moore during her time at UT Dallas. "When I first began this work with students wanting internships, she immediately shared her resources with me. She would meet with each student, then make lots of phone calls to set up interviews for them all over the Metroplex. She seemed to be on friendly terms with all the major employers and had great success placing students."
She was born March 27, 1925, in San Antonio, but spent most of her childhood in Trinity, Texas. In 1948, she married Joe Grady Moore, Jr., a Purple Heart recipient in World War II. He passed away in 2005. Jerry is survived by her children Joe Grady Moore III and Antoinette "Toni" Moore.

GDPR & Payment Processing: What You Need to Know
The General Data Protection Regulations (GDPR) is a new, European Union privacy and data protection law that came into effect on May 25, 2018. The main focus of the GDPR is the protection of personal data and digital privacy. The GDPR significantly tightens existing rules on data handling, placing greater obligations on organizations that handle data. The GDPR also sets out guidance for organizations on appropriate levels of data security.
What is GDPR
The GDPR establishes new rules for how companies collect, process, or store data of data subjects residing in the EU, regardless of the company's location.
Who is impacted by GDPR
The GDPR applies to the processing of personal data by controllers and processors in the EU, regardless of whether the processing takes place in the EU or not.
The GDPR applies to any business that does one or both of the following:
- Offers products or services to residents of the EU
- Collects personal information from residents of the EU
The GDPR applies to the processing of personal data of data subjects in the EU by a controller or processor (such as Forte) not established in the EU, where the activities relate to: offering goods or services to EU residents (irrespective of whether payment is required) and the monitoring of behavior that takes place within the EU.
What Constitutes Personal Data?
Personal data means any information relating to an identifiable person who can be directly or indirectly identified in particular by reference to an identifier. This definition provides for a wide range of personal identifiers to constitute personal data, including name, identification number, location data or online identifiers.
What Constitutes Processing of Personal Data?
Processing means any operation or set of operations that is performed on personal data or on sets of personal data, whether or not by automated means, such as collection, recording, organization, structuring, storage, adaptation or alteration, retrieval, consultation, use, disclosure by transmission, dissemination or otherwise making available, alignment or combination, restriction, erasure or destruction. In practical terms, this means any process that stores or consults personal data is considered processing.
What is the difference between a Data Processor and a Data Controller?
A controller is the entity that determines the purposes, conditions and means of the processing of personal data, while the processor is an entity which processes personal data on behalf of the controller.
GDPR categorizes the data roles as follows:
- The data subject: The consumer
- The data controller: The business (that's you)
- The data processer: A third party processor instructed by the data controller (i.e. Forte)
As data controller, you're responsible for the relationship with the data subject. You may instruct a third party (like Forte) to process the data but it's your responsibility to determine the purpose (or objectives) and legal basis for the processing.
All third parties have to abide by the terms agreed by the data controller and the data subject. To be sure of this, the data controller must have Data Processing Agreements (DPA) with each one. Our DPA has been designed to protect you; it's strongly aligned with payment transactions, so it proves you're compliant with GDPR (at least from a payments perspective).
For certain data processing activities, Forte could be both the data controller and the data processor. For example, when processing credit card transactions, Forte maintains a dual role as both data processor and data controller. Credit card transactions requires the processing of personal data, such as the cardholder's name, credit card number, the credit card expiry date, and CVC code. The cardholder's data is sent from the Forte user to Forte via the Forte API. Forte uses the data to complete the transaction within the systems of the credit card networks, which is a function that Forte performs as a data processor. However, Forte also uses the data to comply with its regulatory obligations (such as Know Your Customer ("KYC") and Anti Money Laundering ("AML")), and in this role Forte is a data controller.
How We Use the Information We Collect
Personal consumer information is used to process payment transactions and for no other purpose.
Personal information is shared with third party banks to the extent necessary for Forte Payment Systems to complete the e-check transaction. We also may release personal information when we believe release is appropriate to comply with law or verify information with other companies for fraud protection and risk reduction.
How Does GDPR Relate to Data Security?
Organizations like Forte must ensure that they have sufficient technical and organizational measures in place to guarantee the security of data processing. These measures should be appropriate to the nature, scope and purpose of the organization's data processing, but should be sufficient to safeguard against the risk of data breaches, particularly accidental or unlawful loss, alteration, disclosure or unauthorized access. The GDPR requires organizations like Forte to implement measures to ensure that anyone with access to personal information processes it only in accordance with the rules of the GDPR.
GDPR does lay down some helpful guidelines which includes:
- Encryption and pseudonymization of personal information
- Measures to ensure that processing systems and processing services are resilient to attack, system failure or human error, and that they adequately maintain confidentiality.
- A robust set of procedures for restoring access to personal information as quickly as possible in the event of a technical or physical incident.
- A process to ensure that all existing technical and organizational measures are regularly tested and evaluated for their effectiveness in ensuring data security.
Forte and GDPR
Privacy, data protection and data security are very important to Forte. Forte is constantly working to ensure that our services are GDPR Compliant. We are enhancing our documentation and agreements to align with the GDPR requirements and enhancing our internal policies and procedures to adhere to the GDPR standard.
Legal Basis for Processing Data (Lawfulness of Processing)
Processing shall be lawful only if and to the extent that at least one of the following applies:
- The data subjects has given consent to the processing of his or her personal data for one or more specific purposes. The request for consent must be given in an intelligible and easily accessible form, with the purpose for data processing attached to that consent. It must be as easy to withdraw consent as it is to give it;
- The processing is necessary for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is party or in order to take steps at the request of the data subject prior to entering into a contract;
- The processing is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation to which the controller is subject;
- The processing is necessary in order to protect the vital interests of the data subject or of another natural person;
- The processing is necessary for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the controller.
- The processing is necessary for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the controller;
Rights of Data Subjects
The GDPR references individuals as data subjects. The GDPR establishes certain rights for data subjects which include:
Right to Access
You have the right to obtain to obtain from the data controller confirmation as to whether or not personal data concerning you is being processed, where and for what purpose. Forte is under a legal obligation to assist the data controller to provide this information.
Right to be Informed
You have the right to be informed regarding the collection and use of your Personal Data. Forte's Privacy Policy serves that purpose. You should also review the Privacy Policies of any data controllers to which you may have provided your Personal Data.
Right to Erasure
You have the right to erasure which entitles you to have Forte erase your personal data, cease further dissemination of the data, and potentially have third parties halt processing of the data. The conditions for erasure include the data no longer being relevant to original purposes for processing, or a data subjects withdraws consent however Forte may need to retain certain information for record keeping purposes, to complete transactions or to comply with our legal obligations.
Right to Data Portability
In certain circumstances, you may have the right to receive the personal data concerning you, in a structured, machine readable and commonly used format and to request that we transmit that data to another data controller.
Right to Rectification
You have the right to obtain from the data controller and without undue delay the rectification of inaccurate personal data concerning you. Taking into account the purposes of the processing, you have the right to have incomplete personal data completed.
Right to Restrict Processing
You may have the right to request that we restrict processing of your Personal Data in certain circumstances (for example, where you believe that the Personal Data we hold about you is inaccurate or unlawfully held).
Breach Notification
- Forte will notify Data Protection Authorities("DPAs") of personal data breaches likely to present a risk to data subjects without undue delay, and within 72 hours if feasible, after becoming aware of the breach; and
- Communicate high-risk breaches to affected data subjects without undue delay.
Penalties of Non-Compliance
Non-compliance could result in potentially huge fines "up to €20 Million, or up to 4 % of the total annual global turnover of the preceding financial year, whichever is higher". There is a tiered approach to fines e.g. a company can be fined 2% for not having their records in order (article 28), not notifying the supervising authority and data subject about a breach or not conducting impact assessment. It is important to note that these rules apply to both controllers and processors.
This GDPR Guide is for informational purposes only. It is not legal advice. Please reach out to your legal counsel to receive tailored guidance on how the GDPR may impact your business.

'Ello 'ello 'ello there! Another Wednesday means another Open Forum from me! You're welcome, planet Earth.
So I was debating on what game to get to tide me over the Christmas holidays while I'm back home for two weeks. It was between Persona 5, Horizon: Zero Dawn, FFXV and Dragons Dogma. I went with Dragons Dogma and I'm enjoying it! It's pretty hard and I may have messed up my classes a bit but it's pretty good. Definitely feels like a Japanese developers attempt at a Western RPG.
...plus it was on sale...
I wanted Dragons Dogma for a while, because I missed it on the PS3. Well, I bought it and on the day it arrived my PS3 kicked the bucket. I'm definitely glad I went back to play this before any of those other games, because if I didn't I'd probably never get back to it. What a potentially missed opportunity!
P.S Any tips for Dragons Dogma are appreciated!
So with that, here's some topics for today!
• What games have you missed due to broken consoles or any other similar situation? Did you eventually play them?
• Has there been any recent missed opportunities in your life?
• If you could play any game for the first time again, what would it be?
• If you could be doing anything else right now, what would it be?
• Favourite video game pet?

Most of the people involved in the digital currency market dream of becoming a millionaire out of cryptocurrency, or even better. If Bitcoin and Cryptocurrency continue to rise in the next few years, there will undoubtedly be many people who will become rich millionaires – small investments in real coins will generate huge profits in the future, just as it did to the early investors.
Cryptocurrency Millionaire
You'll never know who remembers buying 100 bitcoin in 2010 and can use it to work out your current value – we recommend you stay under the radar, you're responsible for your own cryptocurrency security and there's a growing number or burglary.
People believe that investing in digital currencies is one of the best and fastest ways for young people to make money. A safe way to make money in cryptocurrency is to buy good cryptocurrencies that have a basic use case and keep them until they have a fair market share.
Cryptocurrencies and blockchains will change human lives in an incredible way and people are getting the opportunity to understand the new ecosystem so that they can use it to their advantage. Cryptography is mainly a retail investment sector, and most people who invest in cryptocurrency today did so in Q4 2017, with the aim of becoming rich quickly.
Cryptocurrencies are now ghost cities that have to deal with the issue of illegal security trading, and the existing pocket wallets are increasingly hurting with every new landfill. Bitcoin ( or another decentralized, investable currency ) becomes the host of a DApp or other use case that we all use every day.
Note: just because everyone is now using bitcoin ( or tomatoes for the sake of payment ) as a payment method does not mean that you are magically gifted bitcoin at birth and you don't have to take out debts to build a business.
Use Case of Some Cryptocurrencies:
Factom enables companies to create an unchangeable database and store the database in their own blockchain, hash such data and store it in the bitcoin blockchain.
Golem's goal is to finally have Smartphones, massive data centers, laptops and everything in between to contribute to the ever-increasing range of computing power, and with increasing computing power, investing in Golem is a must for investors.
Zcash was founded by Zooko Wilcox in October 2016 and is the result of a continuous effort by developers to create cryptographic protocols that provide more privacy.
The IOTA focuses on being useful for the burgeoning machine – to – machine ( m2m ) economy of the Internet of Things ( IoT ), data integrity, micropayment and other applications where a scalable decentralized system is justified.
The above-mentioned cryptocurrencies do have a use-case but you as an investor need to carefully examine the use case yourself and check whether you find the particular use case really needed for the future or not.
Be Careful with cryptocurrency investment
Be interested only in those cryptocurrency platforms and protocols that are aimed at solving basic problems with current blockchain technology, which needs to be overcome if the blockchain is to solve real problems rather than just a speculative investment. But what you want to take away here is that coins that do not have strong foundations ( and real use outside the money – grabbing ) will collapse when crypto madness is coming to an end and people start to evaluate crypto based on real applications.
Investing in cryptocurrencies is quite a risky investment as the market is highly volatile. The investors should carefully examine the type of cryptocurrency they are going to make their investment in and only then move forward. It is however recommended to invest only in such platforms that have a purpose behind it and are totally decentralized such as bitcoin. Investing in scam projects and useless coins can only be profitable for a short term as in the long term they are surely going to collapse hard.

You Gotta Know These Asian Rivers
- The Yangtze (or Chang Jiang or Ch'ang Chiang) is the longest river in China and Asia, and the third longest in the world. It rises in the Kunlun Mountains, flows across the Tibetan Plateau, passes the cities of Chongqing, Wuhan, Nanjing, and Shanghai, and empties into the South China Sea. Its basin is China's granary and is home to nearly a third of Chinese citizens. The river is dammed by the Three Gorges Dam, the world's largest, which reduced flooding but displaced 1.5 million people and buried over 1,300 known archaeological sites.
- The Brahmaputra (or Tsangpo or Jamuna) runs 1,800 miles from its source in the Tibetan Himalayas; it starts eastward across the plateau, then turns south into the Indian state of Assam, and then enters Bangladesh, where it merges with the Ganges to form the world's largest delta. While serving as a historical route to Tibet, the river is also prone to disastrous flooding.
- The Yellow River (or Huang He or Huang Ho) is, at 3,400 miles, China's second-longest; it is also the most important to the northern half of the country. It rises in Qinghai province and flows into the Bohai Gulf of the Yellow Sea. The river's name comes from the extraordinary amount of loess silt that it carries, an average of 57 pounds for every cubic yard of water. Among its notable features is the Grand Canal, rebuilt during the Ming Dynasty, that links it to the Yangtze.
- The Ganges (or Ganga) is the holiest river of Hinduism. It rises in the Himalayas and flows a comparatively short 1,560 miles to the world's largest delta, on the Bay of Bengal. Among that delta's distributaries are the Hooghly (on whose banks Kolkata — formerly Calcutta — may be found) and the Padma (which enters Bangladesh). Approximately one in every twelve human beings lives in the Ganges Basin, a population density that is rapidly polluting the river; a significant source of that pollution is cremated remains.
- The Mekong is the chief river of Southeast Asia. It originates in eastern Tibet, forms much of the Laos–Thailand border, flows south through Cambodia, and enters the South China Sea in southern Vietnam just south of Ho Chi Minh City. The capital cities Vientiane and Phnom Penh are on the Mekong. The building of dams and clearing of rapids are a source of diplomatic conflict among China, Laos, and Cambodia.
- The Tigris is the eastern of the two rivers that define the historic region Mesopotamia (meaning "the Land Between Two Rivers"), which was home to the ancient civilizations Sumer and Akkad. It rises in Turkey, then flows southeast by Mosul, Tikrit, and Baghdad before joining the Euphrates to make the Shatt-al-Arab, which empties into the Persian Gulf.
- The Euphrates defines the western border of Mesopotamia; it also rises in the Zagros Mountains of Turkey and its shores are home to Fallujah and Babylon. It is the longer of the two rivers, with a course of 1,740 miles (compared to the Tigris' 1,180). Both the Tigris and the Euphrates have changed courses several times, leaving ruins in the desert where cities have been abandoned.
- The Irrawaddy (or Ayeyarwaddy) is the chief river of Myanmar (also known as Burma). It flows 1,350 miles past Yangon (formerly Rangoon) and Mandalay to the Gulf of Martaban, an arm of the Bay of Bengal. Its delta is one of the world's most important rice-growing regions, and its name is thought to come from the Sanskrit word for "elephant."
- The Indus is the chief river of Pakistan and the source of the name of India. It rises in Tibet and flows 1,800 miles to a delta on the Arabian Sea southeast of Karachi. The five major tributaries of the Indus — the Jhelum, Chenab, Ravi, Beas, and Sutlej Rivers — are the source of the name of the Punjab region, which is Persian for "land of the five rivers." The Indus is the cradle of the Indus Valley Civilization, one of the world's earliest urban areas, whose main cities were Mohenjo-Daro and Harappa.
- The Jordan River rises in Syria from springs near Mount Hermon. It flows south to Lake Merom, through the Sea of Galilee, and into the Dead Sea, which is 1,300 feet below sea level. The river forms the nation of Jordan's boundary with the West Bank and northern Israel. In the New Testament, the river was the site of the baptism of Jesus by John the Baptist. In modern times, about 80% of its water is diverted for human use, a figure that has led to the shrinking of the Dead Sea and serious contention among bordering nations.

Last night's brawl between Orioles shortstop Manny Machado and Royals pitcher Yordano Ventura was one of those galvanizing moments--if not for the team, then at least its fans.
Kansas City may have been a Cinderella story when they won the World Series last year with a team filled with homegrown talent. But not here, not in Baltimore. People still hate the way the Royals beat the Orioles in the 2014 ALCS with dinky hits and a cocksure attitude. They hate guys like Eric Hosmer and Mike Moustakas.
So when Machado took a 99-mph fastball in the back--three innings after Ventura nearly hit him with another heater--and the infielder charged the mound and connected on a right hook/DDT combo against Ventura, the crowd ate it up. The benches cleared, and the more things got out hand, the more fans loved it. As the sides broke up and the fighting players were pulled a part, the crowd started chanting "Mann-y! Mann-y!" This is what Orioles fans, still with something of a chip on their shoulder, have been yearning for: We're not taking Kansas City's shit anymore.
Watch the video again in all its glory:
Machado's righteous anger. The way he avoids Ventura's weak punch and then lands one pretty cleanly. The way Chris Davis runs into the fray like a bat out of hell and jumps into the pile. It's all so awesome.
And it made for some great memes:

The Orioles answered the best way possible: bashing two homers in the following at-bats. It was a beautiful act of revenge, and the crowd roared with approval.
After the 9-1 win, Machado told reporters, "I don't regret anything." Nor should he, according to Adam Jones.
"I'm glad for Manny for defending himself," the center fielder said to the media. "Screw it. Defend yourself." Jones even offered to pay Machado's fine.
Machado will almost certainly be suspended for his part in the fracas, and it will be hard for the O's to lose their best player for an extended period of time. But it's almost worth it. With the brawl and the ensuing back-to-back home runs, the Orioles proved something: They're going to keep bashing the hell out of the ball and they're going to fight--though not always literally--the rest of the season to keep pace in a tight A.L. East race. And they're not taking shit from K.C. or anybody else, which is something the whole city should get behind.

'Kroll Show' Goes There With 'Degrassi' Parody
I don't know what it is, man, but Degrassi has been on everyone's minds lately. Probably because our friend Drake, aka Audrey Graham, aka Jimmy Brooks (remember when called his girlfriend Ashley a slut?) has been blowin' up. He mentioned his roots on the Canadian teen drama last Saturday night when Drake hosted SNL . I guess when he says he started from the bottom, Degrassi: The Next Generation is the bottom. In a loving way! And tonight, Nick Kroll, who you may know from his new project, Kroll Show, or perhaps as the jerk on Parks and Recreation (he was once a contender to donate sperm to Anne Perkins), is doing a parody of Degrassi on Kroll Show called "Wheels Ontario.
AND guess how much he's going there? He got THE infamous bitch of the real Degrassi: The Next Generation, Paige Michalchuk (Lauren Collins), to guest star. She's the one who wore those fabulous purple-tinted glasses and gave us all our new year's resolutions for all time: "New Year, new look, new Paige."
But seriously, what's with all the Degrassi buzz lately? Does this mean a Degrassi NEXT Next Generation revival TV show?

Agricultural R&D funding in Pakistan among lowest in the world
Last Updated on Tuesday, 30 November 1999 05:00 Written by Shumaila Ahmed Thursday, 29 November 2012 09:48
LAHORE: Public spending on agricultural research and development in Pakistan has been irregular and has not kept up with agricultural growth.
"Data from 2009 indicates that for every $100 of agricultural output, Pakistan invested just $0.21 in agricultural R&D, which is one of the lowest levels in the developing world, and shows a considerable decline from levels recorded in the 1990s," said a speaker at an event on Tuesday.
Policymakers, donors, researchers and other stakeholders gathered in the federal capital to deliberate recent developments in agricultural research in Pakistan. The event was organised by the International Food Policy Research Institute's (IFPRI) Agricultural Science and Technology Indicators (ASTI) initiative and the Pakistan Agricultural Research Council (PARC), to share findings on agricultural R&D in Pakistan.
Jock Anderson presented an independent evaluation of PARC and Anwar Naseem, assistant professor of agricultural economics from McGill University, provided an insight into the role of private-sector agricultural R&D in Pakistan on the occasion.
According to the speakers, the agricultural sector in Pakistan plays a vital role in the nation's food security and employs half the country's labour force. Pakistan's population is expected to nearly double by 2050. To feed the growing population and address challenges such as climate change and rising food prices, it is crucial that agricultural productivity is increased.
Agricultural R&D has contributed significantly to agricultural productivity and poverty reduction around the globe over the past five decades. However, despite the well-documented evidence that the payoffs to agricultural R&D are considerable, Pakistan continues to under invest in agricultural research.
"Since there is a significant time lag between investing in research and reaping its rewards, agricultural R&D requires long-term commitments in sufficient and sustained funding and well-staffed research agencies," said Gert-Jan Stads, ASTI programme coordinator.
India's agricultural R&D investments as a share of agricultural output were found to be almost twice those of Pakistan. Pakistan faces financial challenges as well as a dearth of skilled human capital. The country's share of agricultural researchers with PhD degrees remains very low, at 18 percent.
PARC is Pakistan's main agricultural R&D agency and its broad mandate is the coordination of research among federal, provincial, and higher education agencies. There are a19 other federal government agencies that conduct agriculture-related R&D under various government ministries. With the recent devolution of the agricultural sector's responsibilities to the provinces, provincial research systems have gained a clearer mandate in science, technology and innovation.
"A key challenge facing Pakistan will be to ensure that resources and capacities are more evenly distributed, both from the central government to the provinces and among the provinces themselves," said Muhammad Sharif, director of PARC.

Can someone say SBR....
Spendy, but tell me the last time a new production all Swiss 55x was available in the US (I'll give you a hint....it was around '88-89).
And these are factory welded picatinney rails.
Mine will go to Marvin Pitts for barrel threading, be SBR'd, and wear an Aimpoint T1.
