The most up to date and most recent proficient strategy for Digital Signage Content conveying message and data around is through computerized signage with effective advanced signage content. This promoting strategy is quick supplanting customary bulletins and static blurbs. Likewise with everything else, today quality written substance is the final deciding factor. The correct substance has the ability to draw in and hold clients and take your business to awesome statures.
It is in this way vital to deliver convincing substance to appreciate most extreme computerized signage benefits. Content must be refreshed consistently and the computerized signage must be kept up well to guarantee best outcomes. It is important to outline the substance in such a way, to the point that it immediately pulls in the consideration of watchers.
Regardless of whether it is open air or indoor signage, content assumes a noteworthy part. Outside computerized signage today is picking up ubiquity because of the extensive group of onlookers base it connects with. signage system utilizing LCD and plasma screens is a much looked for in the wake of publicizing choice by little and extensive organizations because of its reasonableness when contrasted with different alternatives.
In the event that you are an up and coming business attempting to set up yourself in this focused industry and are on a tight spending plan, you can outline advanced signage content in a practical way utilizing PowerPoint. You can ace the ability of changing over PowerPoint slide show to practical substance for advanced signage. Powerpoint is maybe the most straightforward of everything except there are devoted programming programs with layouts which make making of dynamic substance simple.
On the off chance that you take after the correct procedure, it is anything but difficult to make proficient substance for signage. Title assumes a noteworthy part in any substance. Make your signage content title solid, short and savvy. Title decides if the gathering of people is occupied with perusing whatever remains of your ad or message. Make content that stirs the group of onlookers' interest to know more.
It is vital to contemplate the market and comprehend top to bottom what your clients precisely need. This will help make computerized signage content that objectives the client's necessities utilizing infectious dialect. Most clients just read what they are occupied with. So when outlining a visual, work in reverse from the advertising idea and coordinate to the specialized perspectives to have a smooth streaming outwardly rich symbolism delineated on the show to catch and bolt the watcher's consideration.
For example, a man searching for subtle elements on retail locations will search just for limited time data and data on new items. In the event that your retail location computerized signage contains content concentrating on corporate culture, there are awesome shots you will lose a great deal of business.
It is anything but difficult to switch content on a successive premise keeping watcher intrigue alive by keeping it basic. To indicate more data, basic substance can be exchanged rapidly. Typically content is set for around six to eight seconds.
It is important to highlight key components to give an effective visual effect since the vast majority will just look at the signage while cruising by. Make certain to keep the substance striking, intense and brief so as to pull in client's consideration. Straightforward and compelling substance is simple for the watcher to recall.
Use every one of the upsides of this framework which empowers you to change the substance as often as possible with least loss of time and least work at most extreme money saving advantages. Get to the client first with the best battle and attract them before they consider others.

Blue Marble Next Generation : Feature Articles.
This spectacular "blue marble" image is the most detailed true-color image of the entire Earth to date. Using a collection of satellite-based observations, scientists and visualizers stitched together months of observations of the land surface, oceans, sea ice, and clouds into a seamless, true-color mosaic of every square kilometer (.386 square mile) of our planet.
These are from the MODIS (Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer) instrument on the Terra satellite, flying in a 700-km orbit. I think some of the other Blue Marble imagery came from the Aqua satellite. Neat stuff.

JE argues that the most reasonable reading of Hume's argument against miracles is as follows. Say we have seen a long succession of some event A occurring. Further stipulate that in all known instances of A, it turns out that A was also B. On JE's reading of Hume, this makes the statement 'All As are Bs' a presumptive law of nature.[iv] This yields the conclusion that we should assign the likelihood that the next A will also be a B to 1. In other words, we should possess absolute certainty that the next occurrence will not be a violation of our presumed law of nature. Put into Bayesian terms[v], this can be expressed as follows:[vi]
I should stress before proceeding that while I am familiar with Bayes Theorem, I am hardly an expert. This review may therefore be read provisionally as "This is how things appear to someone who is familiar with, but far from an expert on, Bayes theorem."
Before proceeding to Hume's argument, a few features about Equation 1 should be noted. First is the obvious point that this equation is a ratio. The closer the blue portion is to 1, the greater the probability that a miracle ('M') occurred. The blue portion will be closer to 1 as the numerator (the green and red portions) are closer themselves to 1. The blue portion will also be closer to 1 as the denominator of the ratio (the orange portion) is closer to 0.[vii] So what the person pressing an argument from miracles will want to claim is that the green portion (the likelihood of testimony occurring when a miracle happened) is high, that the red portion (the intrinsic or a priori probability of miracles) is either high or at least not insuperably low, and that the a priori probability of testimony to miracles is low. (See footnote vii.)
Hume's argument against miracles is focused on the red portion of the equation.[viii] Returning to the second paragraph of this review, Hume would argue that if all known As are Bs, then we should assign the probability of the next A being B as 1. Recast in terms of the Bayesian formula, if all known events are ~M (not miracles) we should assign the probability of the next event as ~M at 1. So P (M) is effectively 0! This, of course, means that P [M | t (M)] is ineluctably going to be 0 as well, no matter what the other values are.
Put in such stark terms, JE notes sardonically "little wonder then that those of Hume's contemporaries who had a less crude view of how induction works found no merit in Hume's "proof".[ix] JE notes that Hume's view of induction, at least as interpreted by JE, is "both descriptively inadequate to scientific practice, and it is stultifying to scientific inquiry".[x] In essence, scientific practice appears to do a better job of meeting JE's proposed criteria for any adequate epistemology: it provides some means by which possible exceptions to purported laws of nature could be evidentially supported, while also taking into account background knowledge which is not easily overthrown.[xi] JE notes, for example, that although particle physicists have observed zillions of protons, none have been observed to decay, nonetheless those scientists do not think they have adequate inductive evidence to assert that the probability of such decay is zero.
Given that P (M) cannot be reasonably set at zero, is it possible that it be insuperably low? Hume claims that no testimony is sufficient to establish a miracle, unless the falsity of that testimony is more improbable than the occurrence of the miracle. Put in Bayesian terms, the proponent of miracles would thus have to claim that
JE then discusses a fallback position. Assuming that a miracle could be proven, Hume raises an objection which we might term 'the argument from religious diversity'. That is, for a given miracle to provide evidence for a specific religion (say, the Resurrection as supporting Christianity), Bayesian reasoning requires that we calculate not only the prior probability of the Resurrection but its conditional probability on the assumption that any other (non-Christian) religion is true, further weighted by the prior probabilities of those religions. And here we run into a problem: as noted in footnote v below, these are not objective statistical probabilities but degrees of belief or what we might term 'creedence' functions. And hence they are ultimately subjective. JE notes, however, that similar problems plague scientific theorizing. JE draws a further parallel between theory confirmation in science and in adjudicating among religions in noting that incremental confirmation, while perhaps not what theists would prefer, could possibly (although, given JE's agnosticism, improbably) result in a high degree of confirmation for theism (and even for specific theisms—say Christianity over Islam).[xvii]
Despite his trenchant criticisms of Hume's argument, JE notes that he and Hume are incredulous about miracle claims.[xviii] JE opines that, in his opinion, the circumstances of religious believers are such that we should suspect that they do not (and likely never will) be sufficiently reliable so as to overcome the low prior probability of a miracle occurring. To his credit, however, he acknowledges that he is not able to defend this thesis in great detail[xix] and that he is not, like Hume, cloaking a personal opinion in an eloquent-sounding but ultimately (in JE's opinion) 'abject failure' of philosophizing.[xx]
In sum, JE does a fine job of showing where Hume's argument against miracles falls short. Hume arguably wanted to develop a knock-down rule against miracles by arbitrarily assigning a nil prior probability to a miracles occurring. Such an approach is contrary to theory adjudication in science and in other areas[xxi]. Further, the same factors that guide theory adjudication in science can, at least in principle, guide adjudication between metaphysical / theological systems.[xxii] The theist can thus consider that there is, at least based on JE's reading of Hume's argument, no 'God killer' argument to be found. Indeed, it appears that there is nothing in principle which makes metaphysical claims any less justifiable[xxiii] than scientific claims.
Apologetics 315 Book Reviewer Latter Day Inkling is a U.S.-based research psychologist for the military. He is especially interested in epistemology and natural theology.
[i]" I contend that Hume's argument is largely derivative, almost wholly without merit where it is original, and worst of all, reveals the impoverishment of his treatment of inductive reasoning."-Kindle edition, Location 9
[ii] "In criticizing Hume's argument against miracles. I have occasionally been subjected to a kind of reverse inquisition: since I attack Hume, must I not have some hidden agenda of Christian apologetics? I find such inquisitions profoundly distasteful since they deflect attention from the real issues. I am not averse, however, to laying my cards on the table. I find much that is valuable in the Judeo-Christian heritage, but I find nothing attractive, either intellectually or emotionally, in the theological doctrines of Christianity."-Kindle edition, Location 27
[iii] "Any epistemology that does not allow for the possibility that evidence, whether from eyewitness testimony or from some other source, can establish the credibility of it UFO landing, it walking on water, or a resurrection is inadequate. At the same time, of course, an adequate epistemology should deliver the conclusion that in most (all?) actual cases, when all the evidence is weighed up, little credibility should be given to such events. Hume's account of inductive reasoning is incapable of satisfying these dual demands."-Kindle edition, Location 75
[iv] This makes this an epistemological rather than an ontological matter. That is, we are justified in assuming that 'All As are B's' is a law of nature, and thus uniform (never violated). This allows JE to avoid assigning the question begging interpretation of Hume as arguing that laws of nature are never violated, so that violations never occur.
[v] It must be kept in mind that the probabilities assigned here are not statistical probabilities. It is not as if, say, we have been able to create worlds and see what proportion of those worlds do (not) contain miracles and testimonies of miracles and calculate the percentages of that set of worlds in which miracles and/or testimonies of miracles do (not) happen. Rather "a number of Hume's contemporaries, such as Price, understood Hume's claims as being about quantifiable degrees of belief or credibility, the quantification being subject to the constraints of the probability calculus."-Kindle edition, Location 437
[vi] I apologize for my nonstandard notation. While there seems to be general agreement about the basic structure of Bayes' Theorem, different authors prefer to use slightly different symbols. I have proceeded in a way that struck me as slightly more intuitive, and provided color coding to help illustrate the portions of the equation that are at issue at any given juncture.
[vii] This last point can be confusing: isn't the orange portion concerned with the probability of testimony occurring? Yes, but it is an a priori probability. If the likelihood that the testimony to miracles would occur was very high whether or not miracles actually occurred, then the evidential value of miracles is useless. Look at it this way: testimonial evidence is good evidence only to the extent that we should expect such testimony to occur if the miracle actually happened, and we would not expect such testimony to occur if the miracle did not happen.
[viii] Not that Hume explicitly cast his argument in Bayesian terms. Earman is a Bayesian and argues (or perhaps rather asserts) that Bayes Theorem is appropriate for analyzing Hume's argument, especially given that proto-Bayesian formulations of this topic were extant in Hume's lifetime.
[ix] Kindle edition, Location 409
[x] Kindle edition, Location 525
[xi] One way of thinking about this is as follows, and is discussed at some point by JE. While he is inclined to discount testimony to alien visitations, he is also not inclined to assign such events a likelihood of zero. He therefore acknowledges that in his view the likelihood of such events is small (based on his background knowledge of the world) but not utterly impossible.
[xii] Here one sees the point of Richard Swinburne's cumulative approach to religious belief. As he argues in multiple places, including The Resurrection of God Incarnate and (more simply) in Was Jesus God? if the background knowledge includes the evidences of natural theology then the probability required to believe in a miracle is lower than it would be without such background knowledge.
[xiii] Because K is a constant (assumed on both sides of the equation) it can be dropped out.
[xiv] Equation 4: P [M | t (M)] / P [~M | t(M)] = P [t(M)|M] / P [t(M) | ~M] x P (M) / P (~M). I have kept the color coding across Equations 3 and 4 consistent to allow the studious reader to crosswalk the relevant portions.
[xv] "The effects of multiple testimonies to the same event were given a systematic Bayesian analysis by Charles Babbage in his Ninth Bridgelvater Treatise (1838). The claimed upshot of his discussion is this: "If independent witnesses can he found, who speak the truth more frequently than falsehood, it is always possible to assign a number of independent witnesses, the improbability of the falsehood of whose concurring testimonies shall be greater than that of the improbability of the miracle itself'. "-Kindle edition, Location 917
[xvi] The more reliable each eyewitness is, the fewer eyewitnesses are needed to overcome a given a priori (presumably low) probability of a miracle occurring. The more unreliable a witness is (given the requirement that each eyewitness is more reliable than unreliable) it is still possible, given enough eyewitnesses, that the low prior probability of a miracle be 'overcome' (i.e., that the miracle be adequately evidenced).
[xvii] Nor is the fact that God is unseen a barrier to justified belief in theism. JE notes multiple unseen entities (e.g., quarks) that scientists believe in. Such parallels are also made throughout the works of Richard Swinburne.
[xviii] "Like Hume, I do not think that a man of sense should give much credence to such tales, although unlike Hume 1 do not think that there are valid principles of inductive reasoning to show that such tales are never, in principle, to be credited."-Kindle edition, Location 994
[xix] But I do believe, in a way that I cannot articulate in detail, that these cases are in fact relevantly similar to the case of faith healing where there is it palpable atmosphere of collective hysteria that renders the participants unable to achieve the minimal reliability condition-indeed, one might even say that it necessary condition for being a sincere participant in a faith healing meeting is the suspension of critical faculties essential to accurate reporting."-Kindle edition, Location 998
[xx] I was powerfully reminded of similar, straightforward-admissions of personal preference for non-theistic worldviews made by Thomas Nagel. See his Mind and Cosmos pages 10 ('an ungrounded assumption of my own…I lack the sensus divinitatis) and 23 ('an ungrounded intellectual preference').
[xxi] See Chapter 14 'The Indian Prince', Kindle edition, Location 554
[xxii] Many theists will be put off by the idea of running their religious beliefs through Bayesian calculations. Someone sympathetic to Reformed Epistemology will, of course, be unfazed.
[xxiii] Again, let me stress: JE does think religious claims are less justified (at least at present) than scientific claims. But this is not an 'in principle' objection.

Thanks for one of the best motorcycle vacations I've had. I wish it would not have ended in 4 days.
It was amazing to discover the remote villages, endless trails, waterfalls, lush rice tiers, local bridge crossings, and of course all the really friendly people and great hospitality along the way.
I'm jealous of what you have there, and I will be back for another adventure, because I have to try the Ural!
Keep a eye out for my helmet cam vids on youtube. Thanks again to all the team.
You have the statement figured out "Live to Ride, Ride to Live" it was simply amazing....

You may have been told in the past that you could not file a victim's compensation fund claim for 9/11 cancer because you missed the deadline. Due to recent changes to VCF eligibility requirements, that may no longer be the case.
Until last week there was a strict two year deadline to register a 9/11 cancer claim with the VCF. The two years began to run from the date of diagnosis, which was a pathology report or other diagnostic test. Hundreds, if not thousands of 9/11 cancer survivors (as well as family members of people who died from a 9/11 cancer or illness) missed the 2 year deadline because they simply didn't realize that there was a link between their 9/11 cancer and the toxic dust in Lower Manhattan. They certainly had no idea that they were entitled to compensation.
How did the Zadroga Act expand the reach of the VCF?
In brief, when President Obama signed the Zadroga Act into law on January 2, 2011, the law reactivated the VCF, reopening it in 2011. At that point, it was authorized to operate until October 2016. However, many victim advocates emphasized the importance of extending the VCF beyond the October 2016. The reauthorization of the Zadroga Act in 2015 came with the reauthorization of the VCF, as well. At that point, the legislation extended the VCF for an additional five years. With the reauthorization, individuals now are eligible to submit claims until the date of December 18, 2020. The reauthorization also resulted in changes to the way claims will be evaluated and losses will be calculated.
The new regulation allows people diagnosed with virtually any 9/11 cancer to register VCF claims within 2 years of the date of that they were told by the government that their rare cancer might be related to WTC exposure. This rule applies not only to WTC responders, but also to residents, office workers and students; basically anyone who spent enough time in Manhattan below Canal Street between September 11, 2001 and May 30, 2002.
Under current law, the claims deadline is December 18, 2020. Any claims filed after that date will not be considered. That includes both new and refiled claims, so if the SM dismisses your claim due to a lack of evidence, you acquire that new evidence, and refile the claim after the deadline, the SM will not even look at it.
Nineteen years after 9/11 is a long time in many respects, but in terms of the WTC Compensation Fund, it is not a very long time at all, considering the nature of these illnesses. Some VCF injuries, most notably mesothelioma, may take up to thirty or forty or more years to develop. At Napoli Law, victim compensation is our number one priority, so we are already working behind the scenes to help ensure that WTC victims get the compensation they deserve, even if their 9/11 illness does not become apparent for several more decades.
For more information regarding whether your injury or illness may be deemed eligible for the VCF, please call us at (212) 397-1000. We would be happy to discuss your individual circumstances with you.
Some of the most experienced 9/11 injury lawyers in New York are right here at Napoli Shkolnik PLLC. Our savvy professionals will quickly evaluate your claim, collect the necessary evidence, file all appropriate claims forms and paperwork, and then aggressively represent you before the SM. Call today for a free consultation.

The White House announced that an 11-year-old named Joshua Trump will attend the State of the Union (SOTU) address because he has been bullied for sharing President Donald Trump's last name.
It's tradition at the SOTU for elected officials in Washington to invite a constituent, often someone who represents an issue that the politician wants to bring some attention to.
For example, four members of Congress are inviting transgender servicemembers to draw attention to the transgender military ban.
Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) is inviting Fred Guttenberg, the parent of a Parkland shooting survivor, to bring attention to the issue of gun violence.
Senator Kamala Harris (D-CA) invited Trisha Pesiri-Dybvik, a furloughed air traffic controller, to bring attention to the damage caused by the government shutdown.
Related: Melania Trump promotes anti-bullying campaign by saying she's the 'most bullied person in the world'
And the Trumps' guests includes Joshua Trump, a 6th grader in Delaware who says he has been bullied because of his last name. He was invited to draw attention to the serious issue of people being bullied.
The White House website says Joshua "appreciates science, art, and history" and "also loves animals and hopes to pursue a related career in the future."
But life isn't all art history and petting zoos for the 11-year-old Joshua.
"Unfortunately, Joshua has been bullied in school due to his last name. He is thankful to the First Lady and the Trump family for their support."
According to his mother, the other kids on the bus often chant "Dump Trump," and the bullying has gotten him to the point that he "hates his last name."
Many are questioning what message the Trumps are trying to send by having Joshua as a guest. The issue of bullying in school is serious, although for the vast majority of the victims of bullying, it has nothing to do with sharing Donald Trump's last name.
Feel bad for this Joshua Trump kid who got invited to the SOTU because he gets bullied due to his name, but it's pathetic that the one time Trump (the biggest bully out there) cares about bullying it's only because his last name is involved.
— Adam Best (@adamcbest) February 5, 2019
If Melania Trump cared about bullying, she could have invited queer youth, who are almost twice as likely as straight kids to avoid school out of fear for their safety.
She could have also invited transgender students, whose federal protections were rescinded in 2017 when the Trump administration nixed Obama era guidelines that banned discrimination against transgender people in public schools.
But Trump, who has a history of name-calling and bullying political opponents, is perhaps only able to empathize with the victims of bullying if they share a trait with him, like his last name.
The Trumps' other SOTU guests include family members of two people who were killed by an immigrant, to drum up xenophobia by portraying immigrants in a negative light.
The White House is also inviting two people associated with the Tree of Life Synagogue in Pittsburgh. Last year, a rightwing conspiracy theorist killed eleven people at the synagogue after saying he believed that the Hebrew Immigrant Aid Society was bringing immigrants into the U.S., or, as he called them, "hostile invaders to dwell among us."

Historic Homes: An Affair of the Heart
By Sandra Nickel
As I am often asked how I came to love old houses and old neighborhoods, I thought it time to tell my story. You see, I grew up in a family of 6. And until I was 10 years old, we were all in a tiny post WWII 2 bedroom, 1 bath reminiscent of Levittown. My father used to get up long before dawn just to have private time in the bathroom
But going to visit my paternal grandparents was a complete change. They lived in a grand 1890's Queen Anne with huge rooms, high ceilings, four big bedrooms, 2 full and two half baths…plus an extra shower and toilet in the full basement. It was heaven!
When I close my eyes, I can still see the grand entry foyer: at least 15 feet by 15 feet and no one used the room except to come and go! There was a built-in window seat with storage below for snow boots, etc. Instead of a plain old straight stairway, the entry foyer featured an elegant platform stair. And at the mid-point, there was a doorway that led to another stair down to the kitchen. I thought it was the eighth wonder of the world!
In the living room there was a fireplace with the most interesting hearth: soft green glazed ceramic tile in the shape of little bricks set not in grout but in extremely fine and very white sand. The worst punishments I got from my grandparents were for taking those tiles out and putting them back in, over and over again and occasionally in a different pattern! Nothing they could or would do to me could cure my fascination with that hearth.
The dining room boasted an entire wall of built-in china cabinets and linen storage, the doors sporting leaded glass panes and the drawers brightly polished real brass handles. One of those drawers held the toys my grandparents bought for us to use—as long as we put them away!
In the butler's pantry was a pull-out flour bin big enough that made a great hideout for hide-and-seek (fortunately, no flour in the bin!). And there were always violets in a tray perched on the long, low radiator in the kitchen.
The memory of that house is as vivid today in 2010 as it was on the long period in between visits. And it must have been on one of those visits that something inside my clicked and I became a card-carrying old house nut. So, you see, when I got into real estate I really had no choice but to follow my heart down the historic home pathway.
In the late 1980's I was privileged to attend a week of specialized training and am proud to say that I am one of only two REALTORS in Alabama certified by the National Trust for Historic Preservation as an historic home specialist. The other is in Huntsville.
Like many in Midtown, I am "marked" by old houses. It is indeed an affair of the heart!

Hello readers. Now back again to explore more "As it is", so far I have been recognising this and developing my understanding on outer situations, didn't apply much to myself. Now, I completely feel that things are changing a lot for me. I am standing at a point of time that it has become crucial for me to listen inwards ,spend more time with myself.
Liberation, clarity, sense of fulfilment are already setting the path and by grace of shri Hari, the creation ability in me will flourish to a great extent. But what I am talking about, the story is that I always looked here and there to search myself, what I want to do, which is best career for me listened to everyone, straightaway followed them but ignored my inner voice.
This is so blissful, fearless feeling that leads to pure consciousness, without worrying about future, all because of I accepted "As it is" inwards. After 6(even before) months of continuous trying to get my feet on first step of Data Analysis job ladder, I realised that in all this, I totally forgot/ignored my skills, I already have in which, I truly put myself in. My writing, critical thinking, art all gives me sense of blessings. Hey shri Hari, I am so thankful to you are employing me in your service. I will definitely reveal more about it, when the work will be more progressive state.
What is your story? Have you experienced "As it is " in yourself. Please like, comment or subscribe if you like this blog. Thank you so much for the love and support.

Mother jailed for
circumcision genital mutilation of 4 year-old daughter in Ivory Coast— Times LIVE
Flashback: We are witnessing an Islamic takeover of the Ivory Coast.
And the French (and the UN, US, and Europe) are helping them. Sick. The reportage on the Ivory Coast election is biased and Islamophliac. Centurion has a good report here: The Ivory Coast joins the ummah.
At least 1,000 Christians shot and hacked to death with machetes by Muslim troops at the Salesian St. Teresa of the Child Jesus mission in Duekoue. Catholic priests are being targeted, Church facilities looted and destroyed.
The conflict in Ivory Coast began in 2002. The country is divided between the Muslim north and Christian south. This is a conflict that has been brewing for years.
The Muslim takeover of Cote d'Ivoire wasn't just one of those random events, it was backed by the IMF and the French military. Obama, among others, backed the Ouattara coup against the decision of the Supreme Court of Cote d'Ivorie and the results are entirely unsurprising.

Happy belated Second Half of the Year Day! For many of us, we began the year by setting a resolution or two. Back in
July 1st is the 182nd day of the year. Believe it or not, we are halfway through 2017.
There's still time to embrace change and make 2017 a year of improvement.
Mid-year resolution: Embrace change
No, this isn't a public service announcement about eating more green things, cutting impulse purchases, or committing to a robust writing schedule. (Although, we do have tips for keeping your 2017 writing resolutions. Instead, we'd like to share the tool Lulu uses to keep our company mission-oriented and considerate of all Lulu stakeholders – our employees, suppliers, community, environment, and our content creators and readers!
The B Corp Impact Assessment is a free online tool anyone can use to measure their company's social and environmental performance. The tool was created by B Lab, a nonprofit that certifies all B Corps. The Impact Assessment analyzes the entirety of a business with a focus on the Environment, Workers, Customers, Community, and Governance. The tool even adapts to the specifics of your particular industry, number of employees, and location.

The assessment awards points for positive actions and gives businesses a way to measure what matters **trademark symbol here** Anyone can market their company as "green" or "eco-friendly," but not every business has the metrics and data to prove it.
Assessing our Impact
To become a certified B Corp, businesses must reach a minimum of 80 points out of 200 on the Impact Assessment.
More importantly, the Impact Assessment includes suggested improvements and examples of best practices. For instance, Lulu does a terrific job with our workplace flexibility. All employees are expected to be in the office from core hours 10am – 4pm. But start and end times are largely determined by individual Lulu employees. However, there is still room for Lulu to improve our sustainability. While we do compost, recycle, and monitor our utilities, we have not yet set goals to reduce our energy use or waste. That's where the B Corp Impact Assessment is particularly helpful. It provides numerous examples of how to accomplish those goals.
Lulu certified with 80 points and continues to improve our score. We're participating in the B Corp Inclusion Challenge, training all Lulu employees to be environmental stewards, and improving our community outreach.

Scottsdale Foreclosures
Buying Scottsdale Foreclosures
Scottsdale is a huge city and there are plenty of Scottsdale foreclosures waiting to be bought. Scottsdale foreclosures sell daily at the Maricopa county auction. If you are looking to buy Scottsdale foreclosures, then you have a few things to consider.
Unlike areas like Queen Creek or San Tan Valley, which are comprised mostly of relatively new homes, Scottsdale has been around for a while, being comprised of a much older median house age. Why does this matter when buying Scottsdale foreclosures? There are a few less things to worry about in a new house than an older one. With Scottsdale foreclosures, you can't always see the interior. This can be more risky to buy than an unseen house that is newer. With the newer houses, you can assume that it is up to code and if it is in a subdivision, you can further assume that similar construction techniques and exterior facades are similar. With an older non-tract house, there are many unknowns. So when it comes to buying Scottsdale foreclosures, just be aware and know your risk. To lower your risk, buy newer tract homes in good neighborhoods. For more risk and maybe a little more reward, go for the fixer-uppers. Scottsdale foreclosures can be very profitable. To further explore your options, call us today.

SageTV using HD-PVR and VMware ESXi
Here's a neat solution that I've been able to get working. It's not fully baked, and while there are many nerd knobs that I haven't yet tried, I thought I'd write up something. It may help someone else.
I've set up a small single-core 3.2 GHz P4 machine. It's running VMware ESXi. On top of that I added a virtual machine running Windows XP SP3, and on that I loaded SageTV 6.4. To get the video into the virtual server, I ran the new HD-PVR. This is of course a USB device. I linked the HD-PVR into the virtual machine using a Lantronics UBox-2100. The UBox supports isochronous traffic, which is required for audio and video streaming.
When I installed the HD-PVR, the trick is to install everything on the disk from Hauppauge. You'll get an error when the ArcSoft TotalMedia Extreme installs, complaining that it doesn't like being run on a virtual machine - just ignore it.
I had problems getting the cdrom/dvd player that in the physical host machine, on which I'm running my virtual SageTV server, so for a while I mounted a dvd drive on the second port of the UBox-2100. The HD-PVR has to be connected during the install of the drivers and software, or that step will fail.
Once the HD-PVR was installed, when I added it to SageTV, I'd get an error >> Sage.playbackException: Error (-5,0x80040256): There was a problem rendering the audio portion of the content for playback. I discovered that there was no audio hardware listed in my virtual machine. I fixed that by adding a Griffin iMic usb soundcard to port 2 of the UBox-2100, and linking it into the virtual machine.
Then I got another error. This one was regarding graphics >> sagePlaybackException: ERROR (-4,0x80040217): There was a problem rendering the video portion of the content for playback. I fixed this in two ways. I changed the default recording detail to the lowest resolution, and set the video codecs to default. That's what worked. I had read on the forum that people were having better luck with 720p rather than 1020i. This was also a key to success.
In fact if I set my Comcast cable box to 480p, the lip sync is good, and even my MVP works, even when watching live tv. Likewise, 480p makes PlaceShifter work ok. 720p still has issues, and 1080i, and ironically 480i both result in a blank black screen.
The ESX machine is running a gigabit ethernet connection, as is the machine on which I ran PlaceShifter. The UBox and MVP are of course 100Mb devices. There are three switches in this test network. It's important that the switch you use to have low latency. Recently, I run mostly Linksys SLM2008 switches.
The conclusions are that SageTV can run on VMware ESXi, and also VMware ESX 3.5. You can use a HD-PVR to stream video into a virtual server by connecting it to a Lantronics UBox-2100. You can even watch live tv on PlaceShifter and MVPs. You just have to balance the SageTV host's processing power and the video resolution that you use.
I'm not sure where I'm headed with this setup. I think it might be improved with the addition of some video encoding hardware, like maybe a ADSTech Instant Video-to-go USB H.264 encoder. It's a work-in-progress. I had fun getting it working and now I can record a tv show on the (beloved) upper cable channels if I like.
I have recently started messing with VMWare (ESX) as part of my job description. I had thought of making a VMWare client that is running SageTV, with the idea that you could cluster two SageTV servers and theoretically increase up time on the sagetv service. I had not put as much time and effort into it as you have though. KUDOS !!!
Thanks Pat. Best of luck to you with your ESX efforts at your job.
I thought VMWare supports USB?
Also, are you saying you could stream HD-PVR recordings to the Placeshifter and MVP?

Hi Mayamaniac. I used VMware ESX in this post. ESX sits directly on the bare metal rather than on top of another host operating system, as in VMware workstation. I've used USB devices in VMware workstation, although I've not tried SageTV and HD-PVR on VMware workstation.
Using the Lantronics Ubox-2100 allows simple deterministic control of which USB devices connect to which hosts. I got it for this project, but I've come to use it with my non-VM hosts because it allows me to swap USB devices around to different machines without having to move the physical USB cables. (I don't work for Lantronics by the way. I have no association with them.)
And yes. I was able to run SageTV on a virtual XP SP3 host, and connect to it from both a Placeshifter client and also an MVP, and to watch live tv being streamed from the SageTV server. The video is perfect at 480p. 720p is perfect on the virtual machine itself, but on the remote clients, there is some lip sync delay, and flickering in text which can be distracting. I'd say 720p is close enough to working that there might be a set of tweaks or with a software upgrade, it could probably be fixed.
I wonder if the delays are caused by the Ubox.... USB supports 480mbits and your network will only support 100mbits... So when you are remotely accessing the sage on the vmware server, your network is sending from the Ubox to the vmware server and then the vmware server is sending it back to a client.... I would think that would be alot of bandwidth for HD content.

Just to add information I was running 2 HDPVR's connected Directly to Vmware Server 2.0, which was ontop of Ubuntu 8.04 and was not having any issues with capturing. I have since then switched to a direct connection to my linux sage server just to simplify things.

Hi Stuckless... you make some good points. It's pretty clear that at least at lower resolutions (like when my cable box is set for 480p) that the stream from the UBox is less than 100 Mbps, because the picture & audio is perfect on the Sage server itself. If I were to send the ip stream to the Place shifter out a different port, that could possible help. It surely would help eliminate queuing delay at my ESXi server's gig port.
I don't thing the delay and lip sync issues at 720p are due (entirely) to the UBox's 100Mbps speed. This is because others have reported the same thing with actual physical machines and the HD-PVR directly connected.
Hi Harrijay... what you did with VMware workstation on Ubuntu is pretty cool. That's also excellent info. It's good to know. I decided to try the ESXi to UBox to HD-PVR just to see if I could get it to work. In the long run it was more of a sandbox. I'll probably rebuild a new physical server and set out to try something else on ESXi.
If you haven't tried ESXi, you should give it a look. It's very fast, and it's a free download.
Ahhh... Harrijay. You said VMware Server 2.0. Also cool. My mistake. Everything I said still applies.
SageTV & ESXi 4.0, aka: vSphere
This is an update on what's possible with SageTV and VMware ESX. I'd posted earlier, http://forums.sagetv.com/forums/showthread.php?t=35621 on ESX 3.5. This new testing is with ESXi 4.0 (aka vSphere) and the latest SageTV V6.5.16 Beta.
The new flavor of ESX is only 64bit, so I built up a new machine for testing >>
ASUS P5Q-EM motherboard
Intel Core 2 Quad Q9650 3.0GHz 12MB L2 Cache LGA 775 95W Quad-Core Processor
LiteON DH-52C2S-04 black sata combo cd/dvd drive

Nexus NX-8060 600 Watt 80-Plus Silent PSU REV. 2
Nexus FLC-3000 Universal CPU Cooler
It's a nice quiet machine, and a real pleasure to use. You must define the storage as AHCI, and then ESXi 4 loads very easily.
Then, as before, I connected the HD-PVR to a guest Windows XP SP3 machine (4 cores, 4GB dram, 250GB of storage) using a Lantronics ubox-2100. For sound, I connected a Turtle Beach Amigo usb sound card (port 2 on the ubox-2100). You can just connect the Turtle Beach card. You don't have to fool with their driver installation disk.
There is a little trick. I had to use the new 18.104.22.168 beta drivers when I installed the HD-PVR. Then I continued with the software install (Button 2) off of the Hauppauge cd, just as before. Actually, I copied the cd onto the guest XP machine, and executed it there.
The results this time are much better than I expected! I don't have much "stick time" with it yet, but the early results are really great. I suspect the improvement in server hardware, especially the cpu, is a good portion of the better results.
Video at 720p is fine. Lip synch is fine. I can even watch live TV, from an HD source, streamed to my MVP client. On the MVP, the lip sync is perfect, there are no weird sound artifacts, all the channel changing is perfect, and it's very responsive. I've never had the MVP work this well with an HD channel before. I don't yet have an STP-HD200 HD Media Extender, but I'm pretty certain it would be great as well.
A neat conclusion here is that the 100Mbps speed of the ubox-2100 is not a giant concern with regard to the H.264 video stream that the HD-PVR is sending. This is consistent with the generic results that any of us get using a service like Hulu over the internet.
I'm not sure where I'm headed with this. I thought I'd write it up. Sometimes knowing what's possible is half the battle. I'll post an update to this if I hit any snags or figure out anything else.

fun but not yet practical
I've done a bit more stress testing. The SageTV 6.5.16 beta code works very well with the HD-PVR and 1.5.6 beta firmware. This is on an Asus P5Q-EM running native XP-SP3. When I extend the HD-PVR away from the server using the ubox-2100, then I start to get stability issues. The performance is very good. It's just not stable at all. It could well be the 1.5.6 beta code. That's hard to prove. I cannot get any earlier HD-PVR drivers to work with the ubox. For my test, I had just one very-low-latency layer-2 switch between the Sage server and the ubox. Well, software (and drivers) do improve over time. For now, getting the pvr function on a virtual server is for the challenge. It's not yet very practical, but for reasons that center on extension of the video streams.
Has anyone tried ESXi 4.1 with the HD-PVR via USB passthrough?
Hi all,
I'm interested in consolidating some servers, and the only thing I know of that would prevent me from merging my sageTV server into the ESXi server is USB support of the HDPVR. However it looks like the newest version of ESXi supports USB passthough.
My SageTV server is headless anyway, so I don't care about graphics output performance to a TV or display. I just use HD200's for that, and occasionally a placeshifter on a laptop.
Has anyone tried this?
Any comments?

So it seems, I'm going to have to update and play around some more... That opens up a lot of options potentially. Finding VT-d hardware is somewhat tricky afterall.

FWIW, I got my USB-UIRT, HD PVR, and R5000 installed in an XP SP3 VM on ESXi 4.1 (ATI 780G board). Sage saw the HD PVR, but I ran out of time before I could get them configured to actually try them out. Seems promising though.

So far so good, last night I managed to record 4 shows at the same time, R5000, HD PVR, and 2x HDHR, from my SageTV VM to my unRAID VM
My Win7 server is running perfectly right now so I'm not gonna mess with it, but I think I will eventually switch over to VMware and run SageTV as a VM guest host. So this is really good news that the USB pass through is working well.

Working at least, I reserve final judgement on "well" until I've had more than a half hour of recording time with it
I think if my server was headless, I'd also go this route. however, since I'm still running my main viewing location from it as well, it'll have to be pushed off. to be honest, though, the only advantage i see of doing this is the ability to run the linux based storage system, with the windows based server.

- By detecting the strain of Salmonella (His+) in the colonies of agar plates,the chemical mutagens can be identified (80% specificity).
- This is followed by animal carcinogenicity testing.
- Substances which enhance carcinogenicity of chemical agents which by themselves are non-carcinogenic.
Eg. Initiating agent: Benzo(a)pyrene
Promoting agent: Croton oil ( Skin Cancer)
Other Promoters: Saccharin, Phenobarbital

Fears over Ethiopia's press code (የስነምግባር ደንብ) for poll coverage
ADDIS ABABA (AFP) – A new press code that sets guidelines for coverage of Ethiopia's elections in May has drawn fire from embattled media staff, who face fines and jail time if found guilty of violations.
The National Electoral Board of Ethiopia approved the framework two weeks ago, ahead of the May 23 polls, but journalists are already voicing their disapproval and fears over its restrictions.
The code bans journalists from carrying out interviews of voters, candidates and observers during election day, while it also prohibits predictions ahead of the announcement of results.
Transgressors face one year in jail for reporting on the latter.
"We stand against every article that is stipulated in the law. It simply puts an unreasonable amount of burden on any journalist," Anteneh Abraham, head of the Ethiopian National Journalists Union, told AFP Tuesday.
"We simply can't work under those conditions. The strict restrictions have instilled fear in all media workers," he added.
Further restrictions have also been placed on coverage from inside polling stations during the same day, in particular the limited access granted for photography and video footage.
However, an article on security has sparked the most concern due to what is seen as ambiguity.
"Media workers must refrain from reports that may incite rebellion and terrorism," according to the article.
It bans the "preparation, publishing and distribution of reports that foment political instability and chaos along ethnic, religious, linguistic … lines."
"It's way too dangerous for anyone," a reporter told AFP on condition of anonimity.
"I will simply avoid covering the elections as it is not worth the potential trouble," he added.
Anteneh said he doubted the legality of the government's decision to allow an electoral board to come up with a press law, and slammed its authorities for adopting the code "in secret" without consulting all stakeholders.
But election panel spokesman Mohammed Abdurahman defended the code.
"The law does not intend to restrict coverage. Every element was given thorough consideration and is meant to safeguard the holding of transparent and free elections," said Mohammed.
"For example, predictions are not allowed because there is no credible institution that can carry out polls in Ethiopia," he added.
Journalists have had their run-ins with the government in Addis Ababa, notably in the violent aftermath of the 2005 elections which claimed some 200 lives and saw dozens of reporters rounded up and imprisoned.
Last week, Prime Minister Meles Zenawi said he was prepared to censure the Voice of America's Amharic language service for its "destabilising propaganda."
More than 29 million people have registered to vote for Ethiopia's fourth elections since the communist regime of Mengistu Haile Mariam was toppled in 1991.

I believe colour is the second most important consideration in design, function being the most important. Colour considerations include the exposure to natural light, the psychology of the color, emotional messages and the meanings of colour.
When selecting the perfect or appropriate colour for residences, commercial and public spaces, I, the designer, take into consideration the clients associations to colour, cultural, traditional and conditioning influences and the desired "look, feel and message" desired for the project.
My interest in design and colour, has prompted me to attend a number of colour design seminars at the various annual design shows in Toronto, Las Vegas and Vancouver. Most recently, this January I felt compelled to pursue the 4-day colour training with Leatrice Eiseman, whom many consider to be the world expert on colour. She has written several books on colour and is an internationally known color expert and trend forecaster, executive of Pantone Color Institute and a member of the American Trends Committee and the international forecasting group for the Pantone View Color Planner.
I bring many years of experience and training to my clients. They can be assured of my being aware of the latest trends in colour and design.

I will be in Missouri at my high school reunion until the middle of next week. Vic will also be gone, so Lora his wife is going to be helping John, when Lisa doesn't come over.
October 12th is Donkey Appreciation Day...........who knew........?? I certainly didn't. Zeke's mom got in touch with us about the walkathon Zeke & Mike will be doing on the 12th from Tombstone to the front gate at Ft. Huachuca. As I understand it, every year Zeke does something to raise money for charity. This year he has decided to raise money to help his less fortunate donkeys that are in rescue or sanctuary, & has chosen Forever Home Rescue as the recipient. What a wonderful thing for Teresa, Mike, & of course Zeke to do.
Sunday John & BlackJack are going to a photo shoot with Mike & Zeke to be used for publicity. Guess I'll miss all the excitement. I hope BlackJack behaves himself, he usually goes in the trailer pretty good & likes to be fussed over, so it should go well. Of course he is a donkey & might decide this wasn't what he had planned for the day too..................!!!
This morning when John went out Tucker was in Thelma's pen. There's an area between them that is just corral panels, & sure enough the little stinker found it. John said none of the 3 seemed upset, which is surprising, I would have thought Mocha would have a fit.
Thelma still doesn't show any signs of being pregnant, so maybe she isn't, but we'll continue to treat her like she is.

Jump-Start Your Immune System
Colostrum (100% bovine) contains immunoglobulins, specific antibodies, and broad based immune enhancers. It is an antioxidant with insulin-like and immune factors that support body healing, balance blood sugars, promote muscle health, and boost metabolism of fat for fuel.
- Accelerates healing.
- Balances blood sugar.
- Reduces insulin needs.
- Increases the metabolism of fat.
- Regenerates and accelerates the normal growth of aged or injured muscle, bone, cartilage, skin collagen and nervous tissue.
- Regulates neurotransmitters, providing alertness and better concentration.
Our Product Advantage
Colostrum contains 13 major components that contribute to its remarkable properties. In general, immunoglobulins can be divided into five categories: gamma A, D, E, G and M. Bovine colostrum contains all five!
Colostrum, a substance that occurs naturally in bovines, contains large protein molecules known as immunoglobulins, which help defend the body against viruses and bacteria. Colostrum also contains specific antibodies, broad-based immune enhancers, insulin-like growth factors and transforming growth factors, as well as leukocytes that inhibit virus penetration of cellular walls. Each capsule contains 350 mg Colostrum.
Take one capsule four times daily, one hour before meals and bedtime.
Complementary Products
|Echinacea, Ultimate (Liquid), VS-C Capsules, VS-C® (Liquid), VS-C TCM Concentrate, Defense Maintenance, Black Walnut Extract, Zinc, 25 mg
|Detoxification, Candida, Cold
|Lemon BIO, Chamomile, Roman, Guardian (Blend)
How Does it Work?
Bovine colostrum is known as a "universal donor." Humans are able to use it because its immune factors, along with key immunoglobulins, are identical in molecular structure to those of humans.
Scientific Data
Oral ingestion of colostrum does not destroy its nutritional properties. In 1994, scientists discovered that bovine colostrum contains special trypsin and protease inhibitors that shut down the digestive enzymes and acids of the stomach. Rather than be digested in the stomach, colostrum's proteins pass through the stomach to the small intestine, where they are easily absorbed.

Tips For Hiring Painting Contractors Victoria, BC
Tips For Hiring Painting Contractors Victoria, BC
Does the inside or outside of your home or office building in Victoria, BC need a makeover? Whether your space is modern, country, urban or suburban, a new paint job can give it a fresh look. But once you've made up your mind to spice things up with new paint, where do you start? Who should you hire? Here are tips to help you when hiring painting contractors Victoria, BC.
License & Insurance
When looking for painting contractors, never waste your time on unlicensed on uninsured contractors. Also, forget about companies that will only handle everything via phone or emails. Whether your home is in Burnside or Downtown, get them to come to you and inspect the house to make an accurate estimate and also provide proof of license and insurance. What does their insurance cover? You' ll want to hire painting contractors who have insurance that also carries liability insurance. An insured contractor protects you and your property in the event of accidents or damage to property.
Their Rates & Painting Process
What are their rates? Do they charge per hour or project? If they charge per hour, they might take longer to earn more. If they charge per job, they might skimp on the job to move on to the next project. So, hire reputable painting contractors Victoria BC who will offer value for money.
Also, find out how the contractors will prep the inside of your office or home to protect your things when they are working. Also, ask them if they are going to roll or spray the paint or use both? Often, if they work with spray paint, it will be faster, but it will cost you more. On the other hand, if they use rollers, it might be cheaper, but it will take longer. Work with a contractor who works with both options for quality, speed, and affordability.
Professional painting contractors will paint your wall with expertise and create elegant spaces that are not only bright and appealing but also inspire.…

Don't you love it when the grandest specimen in a flower family is also one of the easiest and hardiest? Sure doesn't happen very often. Giant hibiscus are awesome!ReplyDelete

10 inches across! Holy moly! :)ReplyDelete
- AnonymousJune 4, 2011 at 7:34 PM
My favorite stage is them in bud. My plants are a mere inches right now. Long wait to see them. I really like that shot above it hanging its head. It looks like a well pressed drapery.ReplyDelete
I love these showy plants, but I never seem to see the hardy ones at the garden center, only the tropicals. Your post has inspired me to keep looking!ReplyDelete
Donna, you are right they are as big as plates. Someone actually referred to them as dinner plate hibiscus. I am sure your will look beautiful when they start blooming!ReplyDelete
Appalachian Feet, I actually didn't realize these are hardy (to what zone?). Good to know.
Hanni, impressive isn't it! They are a show stopper!
Donna/GWGT, I agree. I think the bud is so pretty and I love the texture.
HolleyGarden, my in-laws purchased these from their local High School's Horticulture class. I am definitely on the look out at my local nursery or Botanical Garden to see if I can find one for my garden too. I fell in love with these.
The blooms are about the only thing going for them. The foliage is kinda subpar. But you take the good with the mediocre.ReplyDelete
10 inches is BIG! - BomReplyDelete
My hibiscus has just begun to bloom, but nothing like those blooms. Do you know the variety? Stunningly beautiful!!!ReplyDelete
I love the hibiscus and have several in my garden.ReplyDelete
I've never seen any hibiscus bloom of 10"! That is just huge - That is just beautiful!
Happy Gardening and Thanks for sharing
Paula Jo
Hibiscus moscheutos is hardy in zones 4-9 according my source. There are all kinds of other mallows and tropical hibiscus(es). My favorite is Hibiscus syriacus, also a hardy shrub but with smaller flowers, some double. I've seen hummingbirds on H. syriacus, are they attracted to the dinner plate ones?ReplyDelete
Yes they are so beautiful. I've posted hibiscus breeds several times also previously, and everytime i post many people like it. I guess hibiscus is a perennial favorite for most people.ReplyDelete
I have a Luna Blush hibiscus in a large pot on my deck. The blooms are AMAZING. I have collected seeds and hope to start another one to plant in the garden. This one has been hardy in the pot for six or seven years.ReplyDelete
