Tim Robbins is returning to HBO.
The Academy Award winner has been tapped to star in Alan Ball's family drama on the premiere cable network, The Hollywood Reporter has learned.
This untitled 10-episode, straight-to-series drama focuses on a contemporary multiracial family: a philosophy professor (Robbins), his lawyer wife (fellow Academy Award winner Holly Hunter), their three adopted children from Somalia (Jerrika Hinton in a guest role), Vietnam (Raymond Lee) and Colombia (Daniel Zovatto), and their sole biological child (Sosie Bacon). The seemingly perfect, progressive family is in actuality harboring deep rifts. Then, one of the children begins to see things others cannot. Is it mental illness or something else? The series is a tragicomic meditation on the complicated forces at work on everyone in America today.
Robbins will star as Greg, a philosophy professor questioning his life, purpose and the world in which he lives — one in which it seems the bad guys have won — and his strained relationship with his wife, Audrey, adds to his overall anxiety.
The casting marks a return for Robbins, who won an Oscar for Mystic River, to HBO after he starred in the premium cable network's comedy The Brink. The series, co-starring Jack Black, was renewed in 2015 for a second season but ultimately scrapped three months later before production resumed. His previous work for HBO includes 2011 TV movie Cinema Verite, for which he earned a Golden Globe. Robbins is repped by ICM Partners.
Robbins' credits include The Shawshank Redemption, Bull Durham, Dead Man Walking and the upcoming feature Marjorie Prime, in which he stars and also serves on as co-producer.
Ball created the drama and will executive produce alongside his Your Face Goes Here banner topper, Peter Macdissi. The project marks the fifth collaboration for Ball with HBO and its sibling cabler, Cinemax, following Six Feet Under, True Blood and Banshee. He next exec produces the Oprah Winfrey TV movie The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks.

With Bhutanese becoming more saving-oriented and future-savvy, the Royal Insurance Corporation of Bhutan (RICB) recorded Nu 15bn as assurance and a total number of policy holders at 109,039 as of August this year.
Millennium education policy and money bag policy are the most saleable life insurance services in the country as of now.
Currently, there are around 24 products under the life insurance scheme. Some are term insurance policy, whole life policy and endowment policy and combination of both term and endowment policy.
Life insurance plans aim to make up for the financial loss to a family in the event of unfortunate death to the assured and for old age provision.
The General Manager under the life insurance department of RICBL, Karma Sonam Tshering said that the most availed product is millennium education. This policy is targeted for children from aged zero to 10 years availed by either of the parents.
The maximum sum assured is Nu 1mn and minimum Nu 30,000. The benefit of this policy is that the investment comes with interest, life cover if there is death of a child and a parent and it is also personal income tax deductable.
GM said that the second most popular product is money bag policy. Money bag policy can be availed by people if they are aged 18 years and above.
He said that according to their age and financial capacity, the sum assured can be chosen. In between, policy holders get survival benefits after every three and four years depending upon the term of the policy.
Some of the factors of the policy are lesser the term more amount people have to pay and more the term less amount the people have to pay. It will also depend on value of the insurance: higher the value of insurance, higher the premium
Chief underwriter at life insurance department Sabita Lama said that the trend of insurance culture is improving over time and now the people are more saving-oriented.
However, she said that it is challenging for them to create insurance awareness since their products are intangible and selling future promises.
"Clients don't come forward since there is insurance illiteracy," she said.
She added that to create awareness on the policy the company has appointed sales executives. They consist of 60% of the total business and play a very important role.
These sales executives are paid commission depending on the amount of business they bring to the company.
The latest insurance policy RICB has launched is insurance on priority sector lending.
"We give insurance to people who avail the PSL loans. We cover the risk of human life," Sabita Lama said, "However we are not paying the loan defaults."
Of the total number of life policy holders, 60% consists of millennium education and 18% consists of money bag as of today.
Similarly the out of the total amount assured, 40% consists of millennium education and 18% consists of money bag policy.
Now the RICB has also taken over the rural life insurance. It is provided to all citizens aged 8 years and above.
For a total premium of Nu 195 the citizens pay an amount of Nu. 87 and the balance Nu 108 is paid by government as subsidy premium against the sum assured Nu 30,000.
For the rural life insurance, collection of premium starts on September 1 to October 31 every year.

Doesn't it amaze you to realize that we can trace life back billions and billions of years ago to single-celled organisms floating around in the ocean?
Scientists have discovered lava rock taken from the ocean floor that contains remnants of life that are billions of years old. Three point five billion years, to be precise.
At certain spots the ocean floor oozes lava, which cools and forms rock formations. Microorganisms set up shop on the surface of these rocks and thrive on their rich chemical content. The microbes leave traces of their presence in the rocks in the form of tiny tubes.
When researchers looked at three billion plus year old rocks and saw these kinds of tubes, they suspected that microbes once inhabited them. The most convincing piece of evidence was a type of carbon found in the tubes that's produced by living things. So far, this is one of the oldest traces of life ever found.

Sound Bite: Diane Lane & Anton Yelchin
Anton – of course I saw cotton club when I was likreal my parents showed me all these movies that they probably shouldn't have shown me when I was like really little like I saw Cotton Club I think I was 11 or 12 or something
Diane – Sweet, that was a pretty good movieAnton – yeah I really loved Cotton Club I mean yeah of course
|13:37:19 60.43
Sound Bite: Diane Lane & Anton Yelchin
Diane – The smartness the smartness of when I say smart I don't mean clever I mean profound to me in the way that a really good story is a tapestry of characters that w4e find interesting and we care about or we're angry with them because you know but they elicit a real response and that's hard to find and its really hard to find the screen play is the hardest commodity to locate everything else is replaceable the director the actors everybody but when it comes to the material its all about that
|13:38:03 104.43
Sound Bite: Diane Lane & Anton Yelchin
Diane – well it's about serving the greater good it was very fitting for me my step son actually was he came to me and said I read that script that's a good story you should make that movie I was like really ok I will and so I call up Griffen and I say I'm on I'm on board oh no he's the age of Anton in the film at that time he was 16 15 years old it's not everyday that you have a film that's made about a young man that's going through so much and I think he identified with it and yes my character goes through a lot which is set up of the beginning of the young man's journey and I just cared a great deal about every young man in the world when I saw this story and how much they're challenged and how much there is a struggle to find their identity and I felt very supportive for Anton when I met him he's the one he's got to be the one I know he's not 16 and we can't work him into the ground he's only 15 even the laws will come and say he can only work 8 hours a day but we'll make it work we have to have him so I'm just so pleased it all worked out so well
|13:39:33 194.43
Sound Bite: Diane Lane & Anton Yelchin
Well I mean to me that was probably my favorite part of the script screenplay was that you saw you were left to make your own decision about what you thought was savage and what you thought was tribal after you saw the film because you have these people living under the pretense that they're civilized and they are extraordinarily wealthy and that they are civilization sort of the symbol of that the height of civilization technically and then your shown a tribe and you show a kid studying and caring learning about that tribe because his father and then he gets put into his own tribe to study his own group of people
Diane – becomes an anthropologist within the society he's among
Anton – Exactly it's just as foreign to him as the tribe in South America would be and what you see is that the tribe in south America takes everything at face value you know what your gonna get they're gonna kill you if you piss them off here they're gonna kill you but your not gonna know until your already dead you know what I mean
Diane – and you wont even be sure what you did wrong
Anton – exactly

Did you know that Samsung has its own solar-powered internet schools (SPIS) worldwide? Yes this is true! According to the latest tech news I have research they have opened more than 1,000 smart schools that utilize the company's technology such as smartphones, e-boards, and education software to teach kids and teenagers.
The SPIS units come completely self-contained with solar generators and even wireless communication, as long as there is sunlight, satellite signal and cellular network they can have unlimited access to technology, communication and information.
This program by Samsung has started way back 2011 when the first SPIS unit was built and it continuously grows across 15 countries in Africa. The solar-powered school came through their mind because generally, less than 25% of rural areas in Africa had access to electricity so meaning the rest doesn't have or even if they have; it is not stable compared to other areas. That's how the Solar Powered Internet School (SPIS) was developed.
These SPIS by Samsung were recently showcased at the UNESCO World Education Forum 2015 in South Korea, and I'm very sure many people are inspired and touched on this program by the company as they were able to help a huge number of people in Africa.
The people behind these Solar Powered Internet Schools are really genius as we know that such technology will thrive in Africa considering the amount of sunlight they get throughout the day. Lastly, there is an ongoing walkathon with goals to raise support to build more SPIS units in other countries.

"When my son was diagnosed with limited JIA 16 years ago, we did not have many treatment options and were not sure how the treatments that did exist would affect his life. His disease extended to several joints and eye disease over the years. If we had been approached with a safe, aggressive treatment plan at diagnosis, I only wonder how different his JIA journey would have been."
About half of the kids diagnosed with limited JIA (4 joints or less affected at diagnosis) will extend to more than 5 joints and/or eye disease over the course of their childhood. When their disease progresses, they sometimes end up with disease that is very hard to treat with more severe symptoms. What if we could do something at diagnosis to prevent their disease from getting worse? With this study, we plan to test how using a safe biologic treatment soon after diagnosis affects a child's JIA journey.
This is the first study to test whether early treatment with a biologic can prevent severe disease extension. What we learn from this study can help doctors and families make better decisions about early treatment in limited JIA.
LIMIT-JIA is a project studying patients with limited juvenile idiopathic arthritis (children with 4 or less joints affected at diagnosis). This study will test whether a 6-month course of a biologic medication used in the treatment of JIA (abatacept) can prevent the disease outcomes of extension to more joints, eye inflammation and/or the need for additional treatment as compared to usual care. In addition, this study will also look at family perspective of enrolling in a research study at diagnosis and what barriers we might address.
305 children with limited JIA within 6 months of diagnosis will be randomized to either usual care with abatacept or usual care without abatacept. Children will be enrolled from 30 CARRA centers and will be concomitantly enrolled into the CARRA Registry.
This study is funded by the Patient-Centered Outcomes Research Institute (PCORI).

Do you want to know the answer? Read on to find out!Know More
There are two kinds of people you will meet in your life: ones who prefer ordering from the set menu and then there are those who like to order à la carte . What's the difference, you might think —after all, aren't both eating food? It's the difference of your choice. While some people are okay with whatever is offered to them, others like to make their own choices. Which one are you?
We are all aware that health insurance is a basic necessity today. Without health insurance, you are at a risk of majority of your savings getting wiped off in the event of a medical emergency. During a sudden illness or an accident, you will not only spend money on healthcare, but you will also be away from work for a certain period of time, causing you to lose out on your earnings for that period. It's a double whammy! But, if you have the right health insurance, your health insurance provider may not only be able to cover your healthcare expenses, but also pay you fixed cash benefit to compensate for your losses. "How is that even possible?", you may ask. With the fixed hospicash benefit. But, in order to take advantage of this benefit, you need to add this benefit to your health insurance. This may be possible only if you buy an à la carte health insurance—a health insurance created just for you and by 'you' — because nobody understands your needs better.
There are so many advantages of creating your own health insurance policy. However, the biggest one we can tell you is the freedom to choose. No one—neither your health insurance provider nor your friends or relatives can tell you what your health insurance should be like-the choice is 'yours'! Here are some more advantages of customising your health insurance policy:
1) Self-awareness: When you create something from scratch, not only do you take more interest in the final product but you are also aware of what elements go into it. This will be very useful while making a health insurance claim as you would not what may be accepted or rejected by the health insurance provider.
2) Cost-effectiveness: When you buy a packaged health insurance policy, there's rarely a way to lower health insurance premium. But, with a customised health insurance premium, there are several ways to decrease your health insurance premium. For instance, you can choose to increase your waiting period for certain illnesses to lower your premium.
3) Transparency: When you customise your health insurance, you are completely aware of what the health insurance provider is offering you. So, there may be rare chances that your claims would be rejected if it is found to be legitimate, and as per the terms and conditions of your policy.
So, go ahead and exert your choice today and buy a health insurance that's just meant for the most special person in your life—you!

Veterans Day Walk Funds Presented to Pearland Groups
This week, we completed the distribution of the net proceeds from the Pearland Veterans Day Walk by presenting checks to two local Pearland, TX, organizations.
VFW Post 7109 received a total of $2,130 to support their efforts to become a more integral part of the Pearland community. Extra thanks to Jonathan, Maegan and many others who provided the BBQ lunch for the Veterans Day walkers!
We also presented $1,600 to Dawn Lawless and the team at Counseling Connections for Change, a nonprofit counseling center in Pearland. They will use the money to continue their community educations programs. Last year, they provided suicide prevention workshops for Pearland schools. Thanks for Dawn, Pam and Charlotte for help with this year's walk.
These two distributions, along with the $1,500 in materials purchased for patients at the William Beaumont Army Medical Center, compete the disbursement of the net proceeds from the 2015 Pearland Veterans Day Walk, which received $6,000 in event sponsorships from local businesses and individuals.
We extend our thanks to the walkers, donors and sponsors, including MHI Compressor Corporation, Marvin Monk, the City of Pearland, Pearland City Councilman Tony Carbone, Pearland City Councilman Derrick Reed, Pearland City Councilman Gary Moore, Pearland City Councilman Keith Ordeneaux, Pearland City Councilman Greg Hill, Cooling Tower Depot, H-E-B, Glen & Linda Rider, Pearland Democrats, Nancy Kozanecki, The Ivy District, David L. Smith Realty/The Legacy Group, Stacy Adams, Buck Stevens, Matt Sebesta, Gringo's Tex-Mex, and Mike's Tri City Icehouse. We also thank the Kolache Shoppe and Maine-ly Sandwiches for providing snacks for our volunteers and exhibitors. A full recap of the walk can be found here.
We are already starting to plan the 2016 walk. If you are interested in helping, please contact Leo at firstname.lastname@example.com or call 603 801-5662.

Improving Signature Workflows with the Datalogics PDF Java Toolkit
Sample of the Week:
Because PDF can be an exact representation of paper, it has long been an obvious choice for using digital signatures to create documents of record so there are many solutions available to sign PDF files. These solutions range from apps that simply insert a graphic image of a signature that you've drawn with your finger, to digital pens and small tablets, to smart cards, to the self-signed certificates that anyone can create using Acrobat or Reader. Without additional programming, Acrobat creates signature fields that can be signed by anyone, using any certificate, for any reason. But some governments and enterprises have standardized on particular signing solutions and need to impose those constraints on their users, restricting their choices, and controlling the document behavior when signing. Fortunately, the PDF specification allows these restrictions to be stored in the PDF so that the Acrobat and Reader UI can present and enforce them. These restrictions are called "Seed Values."
Seed values allow document authors to "seed" a signature field with attributes that control the document behavior even after it's been distributed and no longer within the confines of their controlled environment. Seed values are field-level properties that can be either optional or required; optional values are presented as defaults in Acrobat and override any application level defaults. For example, using the Datalogics PDF Java Toolkit, developers can add seed values to PDF files to allow only signing using a certificate issued by a particular Certificate Authority. When a user signs a "seeded" field, Acrobat and Reader automatically invoke and enforce the restrictions specified by the seed.
You can see the effect of seed values on the Acrobat UI in the screenshots below. The first one shows the signing dialog for a signature field with no seed values. You can see that the two certificates that I created myself using Acrobat are presented as well as the certificate issued by GlobalSign.
The image below shows that the seed values have restricted the list of certificates I can use to the one issued by GlobalSign.
The seed values can also store a URL that can be used to enroll for a new credential if a credential matching the required issuer is not found by the PDF viewer. Acrobat and Reader will launch the user's default browser and take them to the right location to get what they need.
To help understand how to go about adding seed values, I created the Gist referenced below. It adds two unsigned digital signature fields to an existing PDF file. The first signature field is created using just the default values of the SignatureFieldFactory class and can be signed using any certificate including self-generated certificates. The second signature is also created by the SignatureFieldFactory class but is further modified to contain "Seed Values." When a user attempts to sign a "seeded" field, the author-specified behaviors are automatically invoked and enforced by Adobe Acrobat and Reader. In this case the seed values limit the user's choices when signing the field and only allowing them to sign using a certificate issued by a particular Certificate Authority (CA), GlobalSign in this case, and restricting the "Reasons" for signing to a list of three.
To modify this sample to support the CA of your choice, replace the GlobalSign root certificate (Root-R3.cer) with one of your choosing. If you need to target to a particular individual and make it so that only that person can sign the file, replace the root certificate with that individual's public certificate.
The first few lines of the Gist simply read in the source PDF file and root certificate and create the first signature field. The interesting part starts after we've create the second signature field. To create the seed value that limits the number of certificate issuers the signer is permitted to use, we first need to read in the public root certificate of the CAs in question so we can store them in the seed. Though this sample uses only one, multiple CAs can be supported so they get stored in an array of byte arrays.
Once we have the array of certificate issuers, we can create the "certificate" seed value which is just one of several seed values. By setting the flag to 2 we are making the use of a certificate issued by GlobalSign a requirement rather than just a suggestion which appears as the default in the Acrobat or Reader UI. See SigCertificateSeedValue for other flag settings. Setting the URL will allow Acrobat to prompt the user to open a URL that can be used to enroll for a new credential.
At this point, we can create a new SigSeedValue object and add the SigCertificateSeedValue to it followed by the list of reasons, set the filter and the flags, and finally adding the SigSeedValue to the signature field (highlighted). Because we know that Acrobat's default signature handler supports all the seed values defined by the PDF standard. We set the default handler to be a requirement by setting the filter and then using the flag to make that filter required rather than simply a default suggestion.
The power of digital signatures in PDF is that the file format is rich enough that the signing process can be as permissive or as strict as your business requires. The Datalogics PDF Java Toolkit is similarly flexible in that it can create a simple digital signature field with a single line of code but can then refine the properties of that field to match your business rules.
To run this Gist, you'll need at least an evaluation version of the Datalogics PDF Java Toolkit. The input files are fetched from our server by the code so you won't need to install those.

Every growing boy needs a hobby. For me, it's Lego. I loved the toy as a child, before undergoing what Lego fandom refers to as 'The Dark Ages' when I was thirteen or fourteen– that period between discovering Lego and rediscovering it.
I rediscovered it a few years ago thanks to my kids: Luscious and I had bought Ms 15 some Duplo when she was a little sausage person, and passed it on to Master 12 when he became a little sausage person. Neither of them had really taken to it, until one day, when searching for a way to create a maze for the remote control T-Rex they were playing with, they brought it out.
"I wonder what they'd do with some real Lego?" I said to Luscious.
"You should nip down the ships and pick some up," she replied. (He says, passing-the-blamingly).
Today, I have a collection that lies just short of 200 sets, and just north of 55,000 pieces. The children, meanwhile, have iPads and iPods, and laptops. I have displayed at the last 2 Bricktober exhibitions, and am currently working on my display for a third consecutive year, and have travelled to Melbourne to exhibit at their giant Brickvention exhibition. I am a member of several online Lego groups, have a Flickr account, and spend hundreds of dollars a year at the Bricklink second-hand site, buying individual pieces for my MOCs (My Own Creations: what adults call this thing wot I built all by myself to make it sound more adult).
In short, I'm an AFOL: an Adult Fan of Lego. And I loves it with great lovingness.
In many ways, I've passed beyond buying sets: I'm more interested in MOCs, as it expands my creative skills, and it's the act of artistic creation that fires my juices. But, like many of my colleagues, sets were where I started before I slid over to the more self-expressive, artistic end of the spectrum. So here are five sets that fuelled my love of the brick, and which will be the last to leave my cold, dead hands.
5 for Friday: Lego sets
918 Space Transport and 928 Galaxy Explorer
The set that started it all, and the set I lusted after my whole life.
The 918– all 81 pieces of it– was the centrepiece of my collection when I was a child. I received for my birthday it in the year of its issue, 1979, and it kick-started an obsessive love that lasted another 4 years, and multiple purchases of smaller, less expensive sets, all firmly placed within the Space theme. It's a love that has never left me– even coming back to Lego thirty-plus years later, it's spaceships and bases that I lean towards building, and which I display almost exclusively.
I gave away my collection to a work colleague in my early twenties, and have regretted it ever since. When my collection was approaching 100 sets, I determined to make this one my hundredth, and did so, at a price that would have made my childhood eyes water.
The 928 was the flagship of that series, and so far out of my parents' price range that I was warned repeatedly not to even ask for it. As a consequence, I've lusted after it my entire life, even when I no longer had any interest in Lego. That's just how my brain works. Like every set from that era, it's now eye-wateringly expensive, but dammit, I'm an adult with my own income and I'll get one if I want one, so there. I have one, my eyes watered, and it's absolutely everything I expected it would be when I was a kid. I loves it.
5984 Lunar Limo.
The first 'family' set that we bought when deciding to introduce the kids to Lego. It's a mad build, as you can see from the box, and kicked off the obsession: having built it, I immediately went in search for more sets from the theme it belongs to: Space Police III. And they were mad as all get out, too, and had weird pieces I'd never seen, and super-cool alien minifigures, and so I needed to get another one, and another one… and that was me hooked, lined, and sinkered.
But look at it. LOOK AT IT! I mean, come on….
79003: An Unexpected Gathering
Look, we can all agree that the Hobbit movies were bad. Bad, bad, bad. So bad. So very, very bad. Bad, bad, bad, bad, bad.
But this set almost makes up for it. This set and that bit where Smaug goes over the top of the bridge and rains coins. But mainly this set. Put simply, after almost 200 sets, this is still the most enjoyable, satisfying, and fun set I've ever built. It's a joy in every way, from new techniques, to new parts, to surprising connections. It's a builder's delight. It's still the only set I've demolished the moment I finished building, purely so I can immediately build it all over again.
10228: Haunted House.
All jokes aside: this set is a monster. Clocking in at over 2000 pieces, it's the largest set I own by nearly a factor of two, and is packed full of little surprises and tricks that add joy to the building experience. The fact that it's a freaking haunted house, the cool minifigs, the metric fucktonne of sand green (a pretty damn rare colour) pieces… all just gravy.
70709: Galactic Enforcer.
It's a tank, and a jet plane, and a tankjetplane, and there's aliens, and it comes apart, and then there's two toys, and aliens, and it does this, and if you pull this bit then that happens….. I would have killed you all for this when I was a kid. Luckily, I have a job, and my own income, so I didn't have to kill you all for this when it came out. But honestly, look at it: if this isn't every space-kids wet dream come to life, you tell me what is. Even now, several years after first building it, it makes my inner 9 year old weep with joy.

(Reuters) - The Trump administration on Tuesday proposed weakening requirements for testing and repairing methane leaks in drilling operations, among other measures, in a step toward rolling back an Obama-era policy to combat climate change.
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) said the changes will save the industry $75 million a year in regulatory costs between 2019 and 2025, while increasing methane emissions.
Methane, the primary component of natural gas, leaks from oil and gas wells during drilling. It accounts for 10 percent of U.S. greenhouse gas emissions and has more than 80 times the heat-trapping potential of carbon dioxide in the first 20 years after it escapes into the atmosphere.
The oil and gas sector is the largest single source of U.S. methane emissions, according to EPA data.
The proposal is the latest move by the Trump administration to roll back environmental rules put in place by former President Barack Obama.
Last month, the administration proposed rolling back tougher fuel efficiency standards for vehicles and moved to replace a policy to limit emissions from power plants with one that would allow states to write their own standards.
Last year, it delayed implementing the Obama-era rule limiting methane gas emissions from oil and gas operations on federal and tribal lands.
Under the new proposal methane gas emissions will increase by a total 380,000 short tons between 2019 and 2025 compared with the EPA's 2018 baseline estimate. Obama's updates to the EPA's New Source Performance Standards envisioned preventing emissions of 300,000 short tons of methane in 2020, rising to preventing 510,000 short tons of methane emissions in 2025.
"It's unfortunate that the Trump Administration is once again ignoring facts and common sense only to put the interests of the nation's worst-run oil and gas companies ahead of the health and welfare of all Americans," Matt Watson, associate vice president, energy, for the Environmental Defense Fund, said in a statement.
The proposal is subject to public comments for 60 days, including a public hearing to be held in Denver, EPA said.

News this week: International exhibition organiser, ITE Group plc, has expanded its operations in Southeast Asia with the acquisition of a 50% stake in Indonesia-based organiser, PT Debindo Unggul Buana Makmur (DUBM), for an undisclosed amount. The completion of the acquisition is subject to the approval of the Indonesian Investment Coordinating Board – BKPM. Exhibition specialist brokers, Mayfield Media Strategies, represented DUBM in the deal.
According to ITE, the original shareholders of DUBM will continue to manage the business. DUBM are the owners of the Indobuildtech Expo portfolio, which is held in Surabaya, Jakarta, Makassar, Bandung, and Bali. Indobuildtech Expo will join ITE's Build&Interiors portfolio, which includes shows in Moscow, Istanbul, Almaty, and Mumbai. The Jakarta edition, the largest of the Indobuildtech Expo series, is held annually and covers approximately 12,000 m2 of net space and attracts over 33,000 visitors.
ITE's Chief Executive Russell Taylor commented, "This acquisition delivers on two strategic fronts for us. It further strengthens our market position in the building & interiors sector which is our largest single vertical market and one in which we have considerable depth of knowledge and expertise. Secondly, it adds to our presence in the region's largest market – Indonesia. It is a country with a strong economy and immense potential."

San Francisco to Bangkok in First
I'm no frequent flyer but I do make decent (and improving) use of mileage credit cards. I am generally still excited about flying, especially internationally, but my 6'4″ frame is snug in economy. So, on a trip to Southeast Asia (Thailand, Burma, Indonesia) wherein I would be flying solo on the trip out, I went for first class.
The reason, I'm guessing, that this Saver Award was still available a month from departure was the transit portion of this trip. I ended up taking a Yen3000 bus from NRT to HND. It took about 100 minutes with traffic. I slept most of the way.
As I rolled up to the Royal First line at the Thai check-in gate with my two backpacks in tow, they eyed me suspiciously, ready to tell me that perhaps I was in the wrong line. Once I presented my passport, it was all Land of Smiles. A slightly nervous young lady escorted me through security and waltzed me up to the ANA Suites Lounge, which was significantly more pimpatronic than the quaint United International First lounge back in SFO. I drank more beer. I ate desserts. I took a shower and my emotional net worth doubled to $2 million.
The Thai Airways plane was the Jet 777-300ER with eight suites. I'd read that the suites were a bit rough around the edges these days but the "situation" was worse than I'd anticipated, especially coming from the United 777 whose fittings were relatively new. The seat was a bit rickety, the dining table (which was huge) got stuck each time it was pulled out, the AVOD device pretty much didn't work and the suite doors didn't close flush.
Since I was the only one in first class, the service was attentive to say the least. The food was good not great.
Having a bed, though? Behind closed doors with a big comfortable quilt? While you're flying through the air like a bird? Priceless.

Four Ways to Add "Spice" to Any WOD
These are general strategies that can easily be applied to nearly any metcon.
We get it. You've got four rounds for time of this, this and that. It's genius in a very simple, elegant way, but there are ways to keep training virtually the same and add significant novel challenges.
For the following mental experiment, we'll use this workout as a reference:
Complete 4 rounds for time of the following:
- 50 Double-Unders
- 12 Chest-to-Bar Pull-Ups
- 12 Hang Power Snatches (115/75)
Here are four ways to spice up your next workout:
1. Add Set Rest.
Consider the time it'd take to complete the first round and inject the day with equal or greater rest. Depending on the volume of work, even 1:1 work-to-rest can add significant intensity to the day. Want more intensity? Add more rest up to two and three times the amount of work time.
2. Force Unbroken Movements.
Take the workout written above and add the key word "unbroken" before each of the movements. It puts a hidden interval in the workout, during which the athlete must rest long enough after completing his or her task before starting the next. The last round of chest-to-bar pull-ups might be a bit of a soul searcher, for example.
3. Record Two Scores.
Announce the above workout exactly as it's written, except note that each athlete will receive two scores. The first score is the time it takes him or her to complete the first round. The second score is total time. Talk about digging yourself out of a hole.
4. Start Rounds on a Fixed Clock.
For the workout above, you could announce that rounds begin every four minutes, for example. This, like adding set rest, creates an interval, but this interval rewards fast rounds. Work hard to rest longer!
These are general strategies that can easily be applied to nearly any metcon. Try them out when your training feels mundane.

A total of 360 solution providers turned up at the Toronto stop of Supercom's SuperCreative Forum this month.
At the show the distributor unveiled its Total Gamer Solution for both the AMD and Intel chip sets. Housing these systems will be Chembro cases.
Edman Lau, senior product manager
at Supercom said Chembro cases are just for gamer systems and come in silver, blue, lime green, orange and even neon red and blue.
PC temperature is becoming a growing concern for gamers these days, he said, so Supercom has equipped its Total Gamer Solution with LCD digital readouts that can control the heat and noise of the unit.
These systems come standard with two hard drives and a top of line ATI video card for the base price of $3,500. Gamers can choose between the 64-bit AMD processor or the Intel P4 Extreme chip.
""Gamers are a unique area for our Touch machines. We looked at the gamer PC market and we wanted to provide the dealer base with the solutions they are asking for,"" said Jesse John, Supercom's district sales manager, eastern region.
Hanif Mawji of Jsquared, the manufacturer's representative for AMD in Canada, said: ""From a gamer's perspective this is the chip (AMD 64-bit) to have and it is not a discussion about price, it is about performance.""
Supercom has even developed a Touch System/Media PC bundle for its notebook line with the help of Microsoft and Creative Labs.
According to Tamara Donnelly, OEM channel partner specialist for Microsoft Canada, this solution is ideal for individuals with small spaces for entertainment, especially in condos. The system, which still manages all media such as music, TV, DVD, and pictures, is also being targeted at road warriors, she added.
""There are people out there without a TV or DVD player, and this is a unit you can take on the road for watching movies inside your hotel room,"" she said.
The Touch unit comes with Creative Labs portable speakers and sells for $2,699.
One of the major sponsors of the SuperCreative Forum was Creative Labs, which was on hand to unveil its Prodikeys. Prodikeys is a keyboard with removable wrist rest that turns into a piano keyboard. The product comes with software for the user to play and record music.
John added that this event, which also had stops in Montreal, Calgary, and Vancouver, was the distributor's chance to announce to its reseller base that Supercom will carry Creative Labs' entire product line.
The show also had products from Fujitsu, Asus, Microsoft, Lite-On, Philips, and Koss.

Do you have an older sister? If you kept a diary, would she read it? Kate's younger sister, Luci, has disappeared, but when Kate stops by Luci's apartment to water her plants, she sees the diary on Luci's desk. Here's what Kate reads:
January 5
I'm in love. He looked at me with lust filled eyes. I must be the luckiest girl alive. G.C. is such a hunk. I have a hard time breathing just thinking of him naked. I might die on the spot if I ever have the chance to see him in the flesh. And he has a brilliant mind. And he wants me. I know he does.
January 7
I've made a date with G.C. Well, not actually. He doesn't know it's a date. I have an appointment to meet with him in his office to go over my essay.
What to wear? Something provocative, but subtle. He wouldn't be satisfied with a slut. There are a lot of those parading before him on a daily basis. He has a reputation of being a Don Juan with the women, but he's the one who takes the initiative. I've seen him at more than one social function with a sexy woman draped on his arm.
I can be as sexy as any of them. And I'd do anything for him. I'd be his love slave. I'd be his wife. He only has to ask.
Wow! That was something. G.C. could hardly keep his eyes off my swollen nipples. They did show off nicely under a nearly sheer white blouse. I do like being trim; that makes wearing a bra an inconvenience, not a necessity. I think he was undressing me in his mind as we were discussing Chaucer. I sure know I was undressing him.
Damn, when will I see the real thing? I know his cock will be large. Probably larger than any man I've been with. So how do we get from here to there?
I wonder what my sister would tell me to do. Maybe I should ask her. No. For once, this is my adventure. She doesn't have to know about it or live her love life vicariously through me.
Lust, revenge, dark sexual escapades and the mysterious disappearance of her younger half sister, Luci, will take art curator Kate Noble on a whirlwind transcontinental journey. The diary Luci's left behind paints vivid images of shameless erotic exploits with a rake named only as G.C.
Can Kate learn enough under the delightful hands of her bisexual best friend, Gina, to ensnare the sensual and elusive Professor Grayson Cosgrove into a marriage proposal of her making? Can she find Luci before it's too late? If only she could read between the lines.
The Diary ~ never have the secrets of another been so electrifying!
Joyfully Reviewed: Recommended Read "The Diary was a fan-frickin'-tastic read! I didn't want to put it down to do anything else, and when I did, I was just chomping at the bit to pick it back up again. The growth and development of Grayson and Kate was well-written and very realistic. And the sex scenes? Oh, man, talk about hot!"~ Tera
CoffeeTime Romance: "Ms. Kraft takes you to a world where anything and everything can and will happen. Be open minded and dive into this erotically charged, passionate story. All your preconceived notions will disappear into thin air. The intimacy is genuine and breathtaking." ~ Krista

My teacher told us about Kandinsky; that he loved colours and shapes.
My final piece looks nothing like my plan; it changed when water from my brush accidentally fell onto a blue line I had made. I watched the water and paint mingle and move, making its own path. I picked up my paper and moved it slowly round, liking the shape that was forming.
When I was happy with the blue line I stopped turning and continued to paint, until the final piece emerged.

Nigeria's House of Representatives has approved June 12 as the new Democracy Day in the country.
The approval followed the adoption of a report on a bill seeking to amend the Public Holidays Act 2004.
The report was considered at the plenary on Thursday with the lawmakers approving the amendments to three clauses in the Act, as recommended in the report.
One of the clauses deleted May 29 as Democracy Day and replaced the date with June 12.
June 12 was when the 1993 election was annulled by the military regime of General Ibrahim Babangida. The INEC of the day was not allowed to declare the result officially.

Prayers for you during this difficult stage!ReplyDelete

So sorry to hear about this struggle. Prayers.ReplyDelete
This is beautiful Michele, and I understand what you're going through. I was shocked that God would give me the cross of a second bout of PPD after John Paul was born, and it some ways the 'injustice' of it made it feel a little bit worse, especially since I'd taken all kinds of precautions to protect myself and ensure it didn't happen again. But it was so humbling, and such a huge reminder that we actually aren't in control, not in the least, of this whole motherhood gig. You're doing a great job, and you have my prayers.ReplyDelete
I love the story about Sister Stinky at church. It's a great reminder to me because I tend to forget that standing with the poor and marginalized does not just mean being kind and charitable to the homeless or needy strangers. My kids are the poor and marginalized in my everyday life, they are small and need me, and when I'm mean to them because they have to go to the bathroom for the millionth time, I'm being mean to "Christ in distressing disguise". Thank you for sharing this :)ReplyDelete
Thank you. As someone who has struggled with PPD, and stayed in denial about it for way to long following my third - this was beautiful to read. It's taken a year and a half for me to start feeling healthy - in more ways the one. So thank you for sharing your journey, struggle, and beautiful insight!ReplyDelete
You are such a wonderful mother! And you are so wonderful for sharing this. Prayers for you!ReplyDelete
First of all, I must say I love your blog! Second, I have heard that with colic, taking the baby to the chiropractor can help. Because in the womb they are all twisted up, in a small confined space with no room to move, their little bodies are very contracted. This can be restless for them, and cause them to cry endlessly. I am not sure that it helps in all cases, but it may be worth a try. Nevertheless, you have a faithful reader, and a lover of all of your family oriented Catholic awesomeness. Most definitely praying for you and your fam!ReplyDelete

Lululemon Athletica – Vancouver Offices
Gustavson Wylie Architects has developed a new office design for yoga clothing retailer Lululemon Athletica located in Vancouver, British Columbia.
Our challenge was to transform 24,000 square feet of dated, multi-tenant ground floor space into a client facing meeting, office and collaboration facility with a staff fitness amenity. The building was originally a Coca-Cola bottling plant which was converted to office space.
Our client is the leading designer and retailer of high quality yoga clothing. Their motto is 'Elevating the World from Mediocrity to Greatness'. By purchasing this aging building for their global headquarters, they inadvertently created a design challenge whose starting point was considerably below the level of mediocrity and judging by the results and client feedback, our design team has provided them a space exceeding their expectation of greatness.
An awkwardly placed column became a waiting area water feature. A new staircase near reception connects the upper floors to the new collaboration areas, especially appreciated by the fitness conscious staff. The stairs are layered in front of a new three storey living-wall entitled 'Project Driftwood' adding a touch of nature while improving air quality. Growth rings of a tree inspired its design.
The meeting rooms on the atrium have telescoping sliding-doors opening to create a connected function space. Doors, millwork and paneling are made from reclaimed walnut. The reception desk has a splash of colour using custom matched solid surface reflecting the brand.
We have created a luxurious fitness area for the staff including a yoga studio, workout area & meditation room. Changing facilities have 20+ spa-inspired showers fitted out with both rain-style and hand held fixtures.

OXFORD, Miss. — A dust mask tossed by the suspect in the ricin-mail case tested positive for ricin and for the man's DNA, an FBI agent testified yesterday.
James Everett Dutschke, 41, of Tupelo, Miss., was the "major contributor" of DNA to the mask, said FBI agent Stephen Thomason.
Dutschke is accused of making ricin, the poison sent on April 8 to President Obama, Sen. Roger Wicker and a local judge.

Meet Abbie Wu! She's about to start middle school and she's totally in crisis.
Abbie Wu is in crisis—and not just because she's stuck in a family that doesn't quite get her or because the lunch ladies at school are totally corrupt or because everyone seems to have a "Thing" except her. Abbie Wu is in crisis always.
Heavily illustrated and embarrassingly honest, Frazzled dives right into the mind of this hilariously neurotic middle school girl as she tries to figure out who she is, where she belongs, and how to survive the everyday disasters of growing up. With Abbie's flair for the dramatic and natural tendency to freak out, middle school has never seemed so nerve-racking!
Packed with hilarious black-and-white illustrations and doodles throughout, Frazzled takes readers through Abbie Wu's hysterical middle school adventures.
I have to tell you all that I read this book in just a couple hours and it's completely adorable and sweet and I loved Abbie Wu's middle school adventure.
My son saw me reading it and the minute I turned the last page, he snatched it out of my hands and has been carrying it back and forth to school reading and rereading it.
We sat down together and talked about what we liked about it and here's our review!
Frazzled is about Abbie Wu and her move to middle school. All her friends know exactly what they are good at, but Abbie just isn't sure what her true talents are. Add to that, a new school, new classes, new people and the struggles of lunchtime and Abbie is feeling a lot of stress.
I liked that it had a girl who wasn't really sure what middle school was supposed to be like and it really showed how uncertain this time of life can be for students. It also was a wonderful way to show that you don't necessarily have to know who and what you want to be yet. It's definitely something that can come to you at any time and when it does, it just clicks and makes sense.
I loved the doodles that are spread throughout the story! It added another element and really helped show Abbie's struggles and frustration. I also really enjoyed the storyline… Abbie put a lot of effort into her lunchtime idea and even when it gets shut down, she uses that experience to figure out just where she might be able to put her talents to good use.
I would recommend this to others because it tells a really good story about the struggles of growing up and Abbie is a character that anyone who's going to be heading into middle school can relate to.
Vivat tells the story in a way that is fun and engaging and will keep kids turning pages until the very end!
Thank you to the publisher for the advanced copy of this story in exchange for my honest opinion.

Anyone else on Team Night King?
Gashtag posted a topic in ShenanigansI got thinking the other day, the Night King really is the one true king of Westeros (and possibly the world). Here are some reasons: Doesn't have any insubordination in the ranks and highly respected by his people - they'll literally jump off a cliff for him. No incest. Takes care of and raises abandoned babies. No king or queen in recent memory has or would do the same. Straight up guy, knows what he's about, no squabbling or back stabbing.

Senate Postpones Vote On Medicare 'Doc Fix'
Senate Democrats have postponed a scheduled cloture vote today on a bill that would make permanent changes to scheduled rate cuts to Medicare reimbursement for doctors and hospitals. Meanwhile, doctors worry about the cuts and lawmakers worry that the fix could break budget goals.
The New York Times Prescriptions Blog reports that the American Medical Association is broadcasting a new television commercial endorsing the Senate bill. "S. 1776 is a Senate bill that would permanently adjust a Medicare payment formula that for years has threatened to impose steep annual cuts in the rates that doctors are paid," according to the Times. "The formula, tracing to laws passed in 1989 and 1997, was devised to keep Medicare spending in check." In recent years, though, congressional lawmakers have intervened with a "patch, known on Capitol Hill as the annual 'doc fix,' to prevent the cuts." Currently, Democrats have no plans "to offset the cost of S. 1776, which is why they are eager to keep it separate from the broader health care legislation and avoid breaking the president's promise [that health reform would not add to the deficit]." They insist "fixing the doctor payment formula should not count toward the cost of the big health care legislation, because it is a problem they inherited. What they have trouble explaining, though, is how the flawed formula is different from any of the zillion other entrenched problems in the health care system that the proposed overhaul aims to fix" (Herszenhorn, 10/18).
The Hill Blog reports on the decision to postpone today's vote: "Initially, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) scheduled his motion to end floor debate and bring the so-called 'doc fix bill' to a final vote at the beginning of next week. But the leader reportedly changed his mind on Friday, deciding instead to he would vitiate Monday's vote so both parties' lawmakers could broker an agreement on a few remaining amendments, his office said Sunday. Reid's office did not specify what those amendments might be, but Republicans have previously suggested they hoped to add pay-fors to the Democrats' bill in an attempt to reduce its $248-billion footprint. ... Nevertheless, it is unclear when Democrats will attempt cloture next, but it could be as soon as later this week" (Romm, 10/18).

Poulaphouca, officially Pollaphuca (Irish: Poll an Phúca, meaning "the Púca's hole"),[1][2] is the name of a waterfall and bridge on the River Liffey between County Wicklow and County Kildare. It is primarily known for its hydroelectric generating station and artificial lake, known as Poulaphouca Reservoir, Poulaphouca Lake, or Blessington Lake. The once famous Poulaphouca Waterfall has little water running over it any longer because of the hydroelectric project.
A waterfall immediately west of the bridge, renowned as a beauty spot from at least the 18th century, was lost with the construction of the Poulaphouca Reservoir. The waterfall, marked as 'Poolapooka – a remarkable cataract' on Noble & Keenan's map of 1752,[3] is depicted and described in the Post-Chaise Companion of 1786, when Ballymore parish was still within Dublin:
Basic Tips on How to Choose the Best House Cleaning Service
Prior to you schedule a house cleaning company …
When looking for the very best house cleaning company, it's simple to get overwhelmed with info overload.
Sorting through websites, getting quotes, and speaking to each service provider could take a number of days, perhaps even weeks, to go through.
Even then, you still might not make sure whether you're getting the most out of your money or not.
So to assist you navigate the world of housekeeping, we're sharing 5 Insider Tips on How to Choose a House Cleaning Service.
You'll learn what to search for in a trustworthy home cleaning service, the very best times to book, and how to make your cleaning services more affordable.
If you've never ever booked a housecleaning service before or remain in the market for a new clean service, make sure to read this prior to booking anywhere.
1. Lessen the Scope
Decide what you need cleaned in your house
What do you truly need assistance with?
Of all, it's essential to take stock of the things you actually desire cleaned since not all cleaning services perform the exact same services. Some do your laundry, make the beds, wash the dishes, etc.– so it's crucial to know what you require prior to you book and make sure that the business you employ does those jobs.
Don't assume anything. There's nothing even worse than getting home and anticipating the laundry to be folded and understand it's not done because it's not part of their service agreement with you.
Second of all, if you're on a spending plan, deciding on what you truly require cleaned up is a way to customize your cleaning to make it a little more affordable.
For example, maybe all you really require assistance on is the kitchen and restrooms? Some cleaning company enable you to book cleansings for just parts of your house (generally the bathrooms and kitchen since they're the hardest parts of the house to clean). Dusting and cleaning down of other surfaces they look after themselves.
Or perhaps you simply require some aid with your housekeeping once a month instead of each week or every 2 weeks? If you do not have kids, this is a more sensible alternative, but even if you do, getting a break as soon as a month can be something you eagerly anticipate.
2. The More Frequent the Appointments, the Better
Frequency matters
Required a regular monthly cleaning, bi-weekly, or weekly cleaning? Or perhaps simply a one time clean for moving out? Take an actually close take a look at how typically you need home cleaning visits. Maybe you can get away with bi-weekly cleanings instead of weekly?
With that in mind however, typically the more regular the service is the less expensive (in regards to expense per go to) it will be. Bi-weekly cleansings will be less expensive per go to, than regular monthly visits, often costing simply a few dollars more per month. You could likewise attempt going weekly, then changing your cleaning services in the future if you feel like you do not require it as frequently, or vice versa by going regular monthly and increasing the frequency if needed.
Vacate and one-time appointments will usually cost the most per visit because of how extensive the cleaning is and because it's not a continuous, regular service.
3. Look Up Reviews Or Ask Friends For Recommendations
Asking good friends, family and coworkers who have had worked with a home cleaning service before for their suggestion can save you a great deal of headaches because you can be fairly sure that if they had a good experience, you will too. That's one of the primary methods Scrubbi grew the way we did.
A side advantage of going through a cleaning service that was recommended you is that sometimes, they'll offer a recommendation credit to you AND a credit to the person recommending you. It's a win-win for both of you.
If you don't have anyone to ask, or wish to do your own search, researching a companies' consumer evaluations can offer you an idea of what you're entering into.
Look them up on Google, Yelp, Homestars, and their own site for evaluations that individuals have set up.
4. Flat Rates and Walk-throughs
Flat rate is much better
You understand that jaw-dropping cleaning quote that's €100 less than the others?
Yes it sounds great and all however you'll certainly wish to double check to see if it's a flat rate.
Possibilities are that it's not and that they've grossly under estimated the task.
When you believed you were getting it for about €170, which is how you could end up with a surprise €350 bill at the end.
Not only that, but the efficiency and effort of the maids is not something you will understand beforehand– a flat rate is more stable and guarantees that you know what you're paying for and aren't shocked when you see the last expense.
Do a walk-through
This is one we can't stress enough.
Once the cleaning has actually been done, do a walk-through with the cleaner to make sure that nothing has actually been missed out on.
This provides you a chance to see if anything was missed or if an area of your home requires a bit more attention to be done a bit better.
As soon as the cleaners leave, it's virtually impossible to get them to come back the exact same day, so ensure everything looks excellent prior to they leave.
Make sure to do the walk-through as soon as possible if you can't be house at the time of service. The more trustworthy cleaning business have a cleaning company warranty however you generally need to alert them within 24 hours about any issues.

5. Search for A Better Cleaning Experience
There are benefits and downsides to each and those distinctions result in huge differences in terms of your experience.
Everything from online consumer support chat to scheduling, consultation suggestions, and more, we utilize technology to develop a better customer experience for you.
We're also up front with the costs and do not attempt to deceive you with "man-hours" or charge you for cleaning add-ons that you do not need.
Just what are "man-hours"?
What occurs is people fall under the trap of being estimated a price per hour but they do not realize is that this cost per hour is per cleaner.
For example, if a business says they'll charge you €25 per man hour and three cleaners show up, you're in fact being charged €75 per hour (3 x €25).
The other issue with charging by the hour is that the cleaners do not have a reward to work more difficult or faster– in truth, they in fact have a reward to go SLOWER!
Luckily we've found a solution to both these issues by charging a flat rate and giving our cleaners a bonus if you're pleased with your cleaning.
This makes sure that you get the fantastic quality cleaning that you're trying to find without the surprise bill at the end.
The "More Maids" fallacy
I get why individuals believe that having more cleaners is better.
It makes good sense to believe that having more housemaids will imply that your home will be cleaner and be ended up in less time than just one.
However that line of thinking is based on a couple of assumptions like: A) all housemaids are great at cleaning and B) there will be no chit chat or wasting of time while they're in your home.
While 'B' isn't as big of a concern, 'A' definitely is.
The reality is, it's difficult enough to discover one terrific maid that: focuses on details, has the knowledge to go out various spots on a range of surface areas, is reputable, appears regularly, and works efficiently.
Having whole teams of 2, 3, or more terrific house maids like that are– while possible -extremely, really unusual.
Reward: What to Look Out For in Move Out Cleaning Services
Moving in or out of your house? The above ideas still request one of the most part with some changes. Here's a quick overview of what to keep an eye out for:
Reserve early
Not just can it get more costly as you get closer to the end of the month, bookings fill FAST. If you wait to long, you might lose out and need to clean the house yourself (which does not assist when you're currently busy) or you'll need to go for any aid you can discover– not precisely perfect for a time sensitive project like vacating a home.
Flat rate is still better
If you're reserving a move-out service, opt for one that cleans up for a flat rate rather of a per hour rate. The effectiveness and effort of the maids is not something you will know beforehand advertisement a flat rate guarantees that you understand what you're spending for and aren't hit with a shock when you see the last costs.
Do a walk-through
This is one we can't stress enough. As soon as the cleaning has been done, do a walk-through with the cleaner to guarantee that absolutely nothing has been missed. Make sure to do the walk-through as quickly as possible if you can't be house at the time of service. The more trusted cleaning business have a cleaning company warranty but you usually have to inform them within 24 hours about any problems.
If you choose to go through an independent cleaner, lot of times they do not have a service warranty and will instantly dispute any problems you claim if you bring it up with them. The exact same goes for anything that may have been stolen or harmed so once again, check your insurance to see if you're covered.

There is nothing amazing - just small things as Autodesk themselves say. I have tested a couple of things and have some comments on the first of them:
Remember Column width spacing in Type properties dialogThis one is in the Family Editor - in the Family Types dialog box (the one with four blue squares, which I never remember the name of).
In previous versions, after you had rearranged the widths, then closed the dialog box, the next time you opened it, those darned column widths were back to standard. In addition to this, when you make the dialog box wider, all the column widths expand; if you make the first column wider it often seems to make the 'Lock' column wider too (ridiculous for a checkbox), and then you get a very irritating horizontal slider on the dialog box - pretty soon the left hand columns disappear off screen when the focus goes into a formula . . . .
In Revit 2018.2, they have addressed just one of those problems - but only partially: Yes, the column widths are remembered when you reopen the dialog box - sounds great but . . . .
|Standard column widths
When you adjust the column widths, you have to be careful to make sure that the vertical divider line to the right of the 'Lock' title does not disappear -
|Adjusted column widths to make formulas readable
Once the right hand Lock column divider disappears, you get the scroll bar along the bottom of the dialog box. Once the whole Lock column disappears, and you put the focus in the Formula column, it shifts the Parameter Name column off screen to the left.
|Adjusted dialog box width
In version 2018.2 they have broken something in the controls for adjusting the widths and sliding the scroll bars - it is pretty flaky. Within 10 minutes of testing I had managed to entirely lose the Lock column, so you couldn't see it even with the slider fully to the right. I have reported this as a bug, and Autodesk have replicated the problem, so hopefully they are fixing it already.
The Bad News
- The Dialog box column widths are only remembered per session (Actually that may not be so bad after all . . .).
- The annoying expanding Lock column is still annoying.
- The nasty horizontal slider is still there, doing its worst to hinder you - I would much prefer it if the Lock column was always narrow, fixed to the right side of the dialog, while the other three columns scaled proportionally with the dialog box (at whatever width you set).
The Good News
- The Dialog box column widths are only remembered per session.
Yes, this really is good news because if you manage to screw up the widths on the dialog box, it all resets when you next start Revit. Actually it is good news anyway, because it is most likely that you will want different alignments depending on your task, each time you open Revit.
