Pearl Oyster [ 1/2ounce spore OR solution package ]
Classification: Edible, Medicinal
Cultivation Difficulty: Easy
Substrates: Spawn bags; Straw; Wood chips, sawdust; Newspaper, cardboard
Temperature: Colonizing / Fruiting – 70-75 / 60-70
Strain Origin: N. America; Eurasia
Liquid culture.
Description: This is the most common temperate Oyster mushroom. Depending on substrate, light and temperature, Pearly Oysters will vary in coloration from white to gray and brown. Generally, more intense light will produce a darker coloration. Pearl Oysters are an adaptable species that fruits easily on a wide range of substrates and are good candidates for recycling wood and paper waste into edible mushrooms. As with all Oyster mushrooms, Pearl Oysters need plenty of fresh air to develop normally. High carbon dioxide levels from mushroom metabolism will accumulate in sealed growing environments and can reduce cap size and elongate stems severely. Fruiting in open humidity chambers with frequent fresh air exchange will produce best possible yields.
This is the maximum commonplace temperate Oyster mushroom. relying on substrate, mild and temperature, Pearly Oysters will range in shade from white to grey and brown. normally, more extreme mild will produce a darker colour. Pearl Oysters are an adaptable species that fruits without problems on a extensive variety of substrates and are correct candidates for recycling wooden and paper waste into safe to eat mushrooms. as with any Oyster mushrooms, Pearl Oysters want lots of fresh air to increase generally. high carbon dioxide degrees from mushroom metabolism will gather in sealed developing environments and might lessen cap length and elongate stems significantly. Fruiting in open humidity chambers with frequent sparkling air alternate will produce great possible yields.
Oyster mushrooms are a number of the perfect mushrooms to domesticate at domestic. They develop on pretty much anything, and generally tend to do thoroughly with a minimal quantity of care and aid. The pearl oyster mushroom produces amazing specimens and could be very smooth to grow.
every ready-to-grow mushroom block has been infused with pearl oyster mushroom tradition and is ready to begin fruiting upon receipt. Produce tastey and healthy oyster mushrooms proper on the kitchen counter! package consists of primary humidity tent and oyster mushroom grow block commands.
The oyster mushroom block will benefit from the "open" air environment of the furnished humidity tent. growing this mushroom in an enclosed environment with infrequent or restrained fresh air trade may also result in odd mushroom increase.
Mushroom fruiting will begin inside 1-2 weeks of initiating the kit per supplied instructions. count on plentiful and common harvests over the lifestyles of your block package. Blocks will produce mushrooms over the direction of two-4 flushes for 1-2 months, depending on care.
once your oyster mushrooms are finished generating, the spent oyster mushroom blocks may be used to spawn different growmediums with some achievement, inclusive of straw bales, timber chip piles, even cardboard and paper.
plenty cooler than a chia-pet, you can consume your tasty, wholesome harvests!
Pearl oyster mushroom spawn is likewise available in six pound blocks of colonized sawdust, that is great perfect for inoculating pasteurized straw or different bulk fruiting substrates. you could also use the larger six pound sawdust blocks as an "upsized" equipped to grow mushroom block, as they're basically the equal issue as this ready to grow kit, simplest large.

I had a Catholic shop in Cafepress too unitl I discovered the filthy pornography and anti Christian products allowed in cafepress. I delted my shop and am now making my own online business selling my graphics and glorifying Jesus. Check out search terms such as sex, mastubation, lesbianism, etc You will be surprised like I was and appalled at what is in Cafepress. I am warning as many Christians as I come across who have shops in Cafepress. I have freedom of religion and speech to do so. God bless, MAry

text: . SouthAmerica: Here is clear evidence of declining US influence in Latin America. This decline in influence in Latin America will have in the future important economic impact in the American economy. With the declining American influence, and the rise of China as the replacement to US influence in South America eventually the population of many of these countries will start taking out their investments from the US economy to invest in South America or in somewhere else. Brazilians alone have over $ 250 billion dollars invested outside of Brazil, and a large part of that money is here in the US. With most countries going from economic crisis to economic crisis in South America the population of many of these countries transferred their savings to be invested in the US economy, because of economic stability of the US economy. All together I would not be surprised if today the people from South American countries have an estimated $ 700 or $ 800 billion dollars or even more invested in the US economy. You can see evidence of American influence decline in South America all over the place. First, at the end of April 2005 Condi Rice made a two-day visit to Brazil. One of Condi Riceâs goals in that trip to Brazil it was to convince President Lula to change his mind and have Brazil vote for the US candidate that would head the Organization of American States (OAS) for the next 5 years. At the end the candidate that Brazil was supporting all along, in opposition to the United States, Mr. Insulza from Chile was the winner. This election it is a clear signal to the world of how fast the United States is losing its influence in Latin America. It is unbelievable the decline of US influence right on its backyard. It was the first time in the organizations 60-year history that the candidate supported by Washington did not win. Now, about a month later from that amazing defeat President Bush, and Condi Rice gave speeches over the weekend to the Annual meeting of the Organization of American States (OAS). But the representatives of the member countries promptly rejected the American proposal that they presented for the organization. (From all the countries in the Americas, only Cuba is not a member of that organization) Here is some information from that OAS meeting that happened over the weekend in Florida as reported by the BBC News: âBush pushes for free trade in OASâ President George W Bush has said free trade would strengthen democracy in the Americas, in an address to the Organization of American States (OAS). BBC News - Monday, June 6, 2005 He said a pan-American trade pact would unite the region in prosperity and reduce the risk of "false ideologies". Earlier, the US secretary of state called on the OAS to bolster struggling Latin American democracies. Several countries are said to be considering an alternative plan, which some diplomats see as "less intrusive". Ministers from 34 American and Caribbean nations are in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, to discuss the region's most pressing problems. 'Commitment' Mr Bush said a recent free trade deal between the US and Central American states provided "a historic opportunity to bring prosperity to people who have never known it. "It is a signal of the US commitment to democracy and prosperity for our neighbours," he said, urging Congress to ratify the agreement. He said he would continue to push for a pan-American deal. "An Americas linked by trade is less likely to be divided by resentment and false ideologies," he said. A proposal to create a Free Trade Area of the Americas has stalled over the issue of agricultural subsidies. Mr Bush said the OAS charter guaranteed all people of the Americas "the right to democracy". 'Intrusion' Nearly all Latin American countries have moved from dictatorship to democracy over the last three decades - but elected governments have still been liable to fall or be overthrown. Opening the summit on Sunday, Condoleezza Rice called for greater intervention by the OAS in Latin America, highlighting concern over crises in Bolivia, Ecuador and Haiti. Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez called the Bush administration's plan a ploy to justify US intervention in the region. "The times in which the OAS was an instrument of the government in Washington are gone," he said. Venezuelan Foreign Minister Ali Rodriguez said OAS rules did not allow members to monitor the democratic processes of other states. Mexico has also expressed reservations. Brazil and other countries have been putting together an alternative proposal. "Democracy cannot be imposed. It is born from dialogue," Brazil's Foreign Minister Celso Amorim said. But OAS Secretary General Jose Miguel Insulza, of Chile, denied the rival proposal amounted to a rejection of the US plan. ****************** SouthAmerica: Brazil was the original leader of the Americas, and the âAndrada Doctrineâ established the foundations for foreign policy for the Americas. In the past Brazil had its historical moments of leadership in the Americas. Brazil became the original leader of the Americas in the early 1800âs under the leadership of Jose Bonifacio and his âAndrada Doctrine.â I have seen a number of times over the yearâs people quoting the âMonroe Doctrineâ in written articles in major US newspapers and magazines, and also on television programs. The American history books, written from an American history perspective, usually mention the Monroe Doctrine as an important American contribution to setting up foreign policy for the Americas. Usually, they are trying to imply that the Monroe administration was the first administration of any country in the Americas to establish foreign policy for the Americas not allowing any new European colonies in the Americas, and European powers were not to interfere in the affairs of the countries of the American hemisphere. President James Monroe in his seventh annual address to the U.S. Congress on Dec. 2, 1823, made a statement that eventually became one of the foundations of US policy in Latin America. Monroeâs statement initially remained only a declaration of policy; its increasing use and popularity elevated it to a principle, slowly becoming in the mid-1840âs what we call today the Monroe Doctrine. The Andrada Doctrine The âAndrada Doctrineâ was the original document that laid out the foreign policy structure for the Americas. The âAndrada Doctrineâ precedes by 18 months, and it is more precise and more courageous than the âMonroe Doctrineâ laid out by the United States president in his message to Congress in December 2, 1823. There is a certain resemblance between both doctrines, but we have to recognize and give credit to José Bonifácio for being the first to expose his thoughts and making a policy in that regard for the entire hemisphere. José Bonifácio preceded the American President James Monroe in formulating foreign policy for the American hemisphere by more than one and a half years. You can read about historical information regarding Brazilian leadership of the Americas, and the âAndrada Doctrineâ by Ricardo C. Amaral, at the following website: http://brazil-leaderoftheamericas.blogspot.com/ January 1, 2005 âThe Andrada Doctrine â Part Iâ and âThe Andrada Doctrine â Part IIâ In May 30, 1822, Brazil through the âAndrada Doctrineâ became the original leader of the Americas regarding foreign policy issues dealing with the defense of the American continent against European interference in the affairs of the countries of the American hemisphere By: Ricardo C. Amaral .

With both Verizon and AT&T planning major 5G announcements for the 2019 CES, I wanted to speak directly with key technologists at both of the top U.S. carriers to really dig into their 5G network and device plans for the year. After a great chat with Verizon's VP of network engineering, I enjoyed an equally illuminating interview today with AT&T VP of RAN and device design Gordon Mansfield, who provided legitimate insights into the carrier's 5G plans — and explanations for some of its recently controversial marketing decisions.
The executive takeaways from our interview include a few surprises: There's more to AT&T's confusing 5G Evolution branding than was initially thought; those two upcoming Samsung phones might not be as different in cellular performance as some people assume; and the company is apparently using its steep initial 5G data pricing to see what the market will bear. We also discussed 5G VR, AR, and other topics.
Here's a lightly edited transcript of our discussion.
Gordon Mansfield: Just for background and context… I'm sure you've already heard that we launched our initial 3GPP 5G mobile networks at the end of last year, on the 21st. We'll be continuing to expand those throughout 2019.
GamesBeat Summit Next 2022
Join gaming leaders live this October 25-26 in San Francisco to examine the next big opportunities within the gaming industry.
We've deployed a lot of our spectrum in the past year, so we announced 400 markets with what we call 5G Evolution, which is a lot of our spectrum in use, and that will continue to be built out through this year. A lot of the work we're doing with FirstNet, getting that coverage expanded, and adding the new radios for that LTE build, is that those radios are all 5G NR standards ready. So when the software is ready to start upgrading those, then they also have an ability called dynamic coexisting, so I can simultaneously on the 5G radio serve a 5G or LTE customer.
VentureBeat: The announcement of 5G Evolution has caused quite a stir over the past couple of weeks. You're introducing some actual 5G hardware across the country, but also lighting up non-5G device screens with a "5G E" badge for 5G Evolution. For the customers who right now are seeing 5G Evolution appear on their phones, is what they're seeing an indication of a tower that's going to flip (via software) from saying "5G E" to "5G"?
Mansfield: Over time, all of those towers that are 5G E will ultimately have 5G capabilities. A lot of that, the timing at which that flip happens, there's a lot of dynamics — how much capacity do you have, what software capabilities are available, but we very much will. Where we've deployed that infrastructure to support it, a lot of it is software upgradeable to support 5G. But you have to worry about how many (5G) handsets, how many users you have, you have to continue to serve a base of customers that have current handsets.
VentureBeat: When we see a phone today that has a 5G E indication on it, what spectrum is it actually using?
Mansfield: It's actually using multiple bands. It uses our 700 MHz spectrum, 1900 spectrum, AWS spectrum, WCS 2300 spectrum, and some more bands — 850 is even used. When you get that indicator, it's not one band or one frequency. We've deployed multiple radios at that site, along with the appropriate backhaul, along with all the capabilities that allow us to bring all of that together.
When you see that indicator, there are at least three radios being aggregated together, and more often than not, four. We don't turn that on until the area has three or more carriers with a lot of other advanced capabilities on those radios that enable the phone to get those final speeds.
VentureBeat: You've already announced that your 5G network is going to be supporting sub-6 GHz frequencies. What are the actual frequencies you're using for sub-6 GHz 5G service — not the low-band and upper low-band frequencies we just discussed?
Mansfield: Yes, it is — those are all sub-6 Ghz frequencies.
VentureBeat: So you're referring to sub-6 Ghz as anything from 700 to 2100 or 2300 MHz?
Mansfield: Our current holdings for sub-6 range from 700 MHz up to 2300 MHz or 2.3 GHz. Certainly with CBRS coming around, we've started to do some work with CBRS at 3.5 GHz for fixed wireless. At some point that spectrum could also be used for 5G. All of the hardware we've deployed from day one is 5G NR capable.
VentureBeat: Is the plan to deploy this up-to-2.3 GHz spectrum as the sub-6 "5G" service, and then millimeter wave will only hit relatively high traffic locations as "5G+"?
Mansfield: Yeah. The way you can think about that is that millimeter wave, as has been talked about, is short distance but high bandwidth with multiple gigabit speeds. Today, millimeter wave is coupled with the sub-6 frequencies on LTE. Over time, you can pivot those same radios that are sub-6 on LTE into an 5G NR waveform and can combine those. You can aggregate the very high bandwidth of millimeter wave with those sub-6 frequencies, allowing you a very seamless mobility, because sub-6 gives you a very nice blanket. When you're in those zones with millimeter wave radios, it adds that and just throws your throughput way up.
VentureBeat: What are you expecting to see for throughput for sub-6 5G?
Mansfield: It always comes down to how much spectrum you have. The reason the mmWave throws off those multi-gig speeds is that you can take 400-800MHz chunks of spectrum. When you get down to sub-6, no one holds more than a couple hundred megahertz. With our current holdings, you'll get a lift on those frequencies over what you can do on LTE, but it's not a significant lift.
Today we're deploying all of this bandwidth on LTE and getting those high speeds, they're not going to magically have higher speeds on 5G. It all comes down to the bandwidth. So if someone only applies a small channel, it could be lower speed than what you now get.
VentureBeat: What speeds should consumers actually expect from AT&T's 5G service, now that you've had a chance to test it with Netgear's 5G Nighthawk?
Mansfield: A lot of reporting says that the Nighthawk isn't initially performing better than regular LTE. The fact of the matter is, go back a few generations, and the same thing is true — there's a starting point from which you evolve. We stated very clearly and didn't hide from the fact that we were starting with a 100 MHz carrier. There's a lot of reasons, but there's a lot of complexity with everything we're doing with mmWave.
That will change very rapidly. I can tell you that month over month, over the next couple of months, we will see a step. We've got things laid out of new functionality; we expect to software upgrade each of device and infrastructure on a fairly regular cadence. We'll have step functions of speed improvements, I expect, month over month improvements just in the first quarter alone. Certainly by the end of the first quarter, we'll be peaking well into over a gig. I'll leave it at that for now.
VentureBeat: Any news on devices?
Mansfield: It's been widely reported that we intend to launch a Samsung smartphone in the first half of 2019…
VentureBeat: Two Samsung smartphones…
Mansfield: The first one, just to be very clear, is a millimeter wave. And the second one includes sub-6 (5G).
VentureBeat: The knee-jerk reaction from the media was, "why should anybody consider buying the first Samsung smartphone if there's a second one coming out only months later that has broader network support?" What's AT&T's response to that?
Mansfield: The fact is, by that logic, you'd never buy a new phone. We have new phones that come out every year with advanced capabilities. Fact. Every year.
VentureBeat: This is a big jump, though. To say to someone, listen, we're going to have 5G in two different flavors — 5G and 5G+ — but you're only going to be able to connect to our "stadium 5G" with phone number one, and your "walkaround 5G" is going to be the one coming later…
Mansfield: I'd say that it's not. The reason it's not is, your biggest gain in throughput performance is going to be with millimeter wave. So the fact is, with millimeter wave, and combining it with LTE technology on sub-6, and being able to take those sub-6 carriers and simultaneously, you get the benefit immediately of those sub-6 frequencies using an LTE waveform, adding onto it a mmWave 5G NR waveform. You get that experience today.
Now, at the end of the year when you get NR on that (second phone), quite frankly, most consumers… will that device have longer legs forward? Absolutely. But will you get a very similar experience on that device as you do on the device earlier in the year? Yes.
From an evolution of technology, nothing happens flip of the switch. Everything builds on top of everything else. So by us pushing the core to the edge, a lot of the latency benefits that you get, guess what — our existing network is getting the benefit of that right now.
VentureBeat: What latencies are you seeing with 4G LTE on optimized equipment?
Mansfield: We're typically getting high 20s, low 30s (milliseconds).
VentureBeat: What would you expect with 5G, and millimeter wave specifically?
Mansfield: Initially it's very similar, a little less, like a couple of milliseconds less. But over time, I expect it to come down sub-20.
VentureBeat: Sub-20 milliseconds is OK, just enough to maybe do VR and AR, but the whole promise of the 5G standard was supposed to be under 10, maybe under 5 milliseconds?
Mansfield: The numbers I'm quoting are wide area. If you look at places where you'd want to do a lot of AR/VR — people aren't going to want to do AR/VR going 70MPH down the highway. I hope not…
VentureBeat: Give it a little bit of time.
Mansfield: But if you go into stadiums, like AT&T Stadium, there's things I can do using edge compute capabilities, where the traffic you want to use from an AR/VR perspective never leaves the stadium. That, I can put those latencies at sub-5 (milliseconds). There will be pockets where you've absolutely optimized the network for a specific experience, that will be single-digit latencies. But when you think about the wide area, to start, sub-20 (milliseconds), and it comes down to how far out have you pushed the (network's) edge. There has to be a business case, right?
VentureBeat: An average consumer might consider buying a wireless VR headset they can put on at home. I don't know that that person is going to want to go to a stadium and put on a VR headset. The whole reason you've gone to that stadium is to experience a live event. Granted, that person might put on a pair of glasses temporarily to see action closer, or use AR overlays to track stats, but that seems years away.
Mansfield: With 5G, you can have different applications with different latency requirements. Like using AR in a manufacturing environment… You can go and build scenarios that are very special purpose. To get to real single-digit latencies, that's important to understand. That will come first. Over time you'll build the infrastructure further and further out that will allow it to come down on a broader basis for consumers. I think it's important for people to realize that you can't make an investment where everything happens everywhere at one time. It's just not practical.
VentureBeat: Industrial AR has been going on for the last couple of years, and it seems like everyone who enters AR with the pipe dream of a consumer product winds up eventually doing enterprise because nobody's willing to pay $2,000 for a headset to wear at home to interact with aliens through their walls.
Mansfield: A lot of those industrial AR applications, though, are wired, if they're truly really good with granular abilities…
VentureBeat: Even HoloLens?
Mansfield: HoloLens is very limited in what it can do. What we're talking about here is complete 3D you can look around. It's very different than what HoloLens does. With 5G and edge compute, you now can do that wireless. That's the big deal in enterprise with 5G, you can take things like robotics, manufacturing line, that can take days to reconfigure. If you can do all of that wirelessly, and then also have the corresponding ancillary processes and capabilities that come with it, it starts to open up a tremendous opportunity.
VentureBeat: Why would a company thinking of doing AR headsets en masse across the workforce go with 5G rather than just wait for Wi-Fi 6 or some other high-bandwidth solution that doesn't require paying a per-headset subscription fee to AT&T or somebody else?
Mansfield: Some people have been trying to do Wi-Fi-based systems for the better part of a decade or more. Sure, they can get bandwidth and low latency, but where they struggle and fail every time is jitter. Jitter is not their friend. The latest and greatest Wi-Fi systems, with better throughput and with lower latency, take a cellular system — even on LTE, with localized edge compute, and slightly higher latency, the throughput's pretty similar. But much better jitter.
Think about drones. Jitter matters. On Wi-Fi, that drone crashes into the wall 9 out of 10 times. On cellular, it never did. The difference is jitter. It's network instability. When you get into totally unlicensed, uncontrolled areas, it is very hard to maintain a consistent jitter factor. And it's also hard in a noisy environment. Even on the same spectrum, we use LAA on 5GHz spectrum, as Wi-Fi uses, from a performance perspective, LAA outperforms Wi-Fi every time. Why? You're not dropping as many packets. The 3GPP waveforms deal with those changes in environments because it's a mobile system.
VentureBeat: On 5G pricing, currently AT&T is offering 15GB of 5G data for $70 a month. Every company I have spoken with has said that unlimited is the way 5G needs to go over time, as consumers can't even fathom the amount of data that will be consumed by VR, AR, automotive, and other applications. What is the long-term pricing strategy here for AT&T's mobile 5G service, and why go with a 15GB data cap?
Mansfield: I'm the technologist, and I don't set the prices. But I can say, we will — the industry will set the price, consumers will set the price. We set initial pricing, and our marketing partners took data they look at and set that pricing. We'll see what happens over time.
VentureBeat's mission is to be a digital town square for technical decision-makers to gain knowledge about transformative enterprise technology and transact. Discover our Briefings.

Sam Jackson confirms when he'll return to the Marvel movieverse. Will Smith teases an encounter with the Dark Knight in Suicide Squad. A familiar face is confirmed for The Defenders. Arrow's producers promise better flashbacks. Plus, teases for an 'explosive' opening to the next season of The Walking Dead. To me, my Spoilers!
Transformers 5
Location scouting has begun, with director Michael Bay seemingly setting his sights on Stonehenge in England as a potential target.
Justice League
J.K. Simmons discusses his approach to preparing for playing Commissioner Gordon:
Well, to read the comics, yes, absolutely. I'm still a couple of months out from doing that and I have two other films before then, so I haven't gotten started on that. Obviously, a lot of really wonderful actors have played that character previously, and most of them I saw at the time the movies came out, never imagining that I would be doing the same thing. So, I can't say that I don't have some impression of that character in my head that's based on what I saw, but I'm not planning on going back and watching any of the other films. I'm just planning on learning as much as I can about him through the comics and getting my feet wet in the first movie, and then hopefully continuing on from there.
Avengers: Infinity War Parts 1 and 2
While confirming that he is not in Civil War, Samuel L. Jackson adds that he is (unsurprisingly) probably going to be in the next Avengers films:
I think I'm in Avengers 3 and 4, but I'm not in Civil War.
Suicide Squad
Speaking at Cinemacon, Will Smith teases that at some point during the movie, Deadshot will go up against Batman:
I don't know what I'm allowed to say, I don't know if I'm allowed to give that out but you know, the bat does cross my path, and you know, it's not completely pleasant.
The Mummy
Courtney B. Vance has joined the film in an undisclosed role. [Deadline]
Guardians of the Galaxy Volume 2
James Gunn discusses the challenges of the film's scope and tone:
It's been a lot of hard work, honestly. It's a much bigger film. Also at the same time, a much more intimate film, more character-driven in certain ways, so it's just a lot of work. And everybody has been on their game.
Nine Lives
Here's the prerequisite "explain the whole story" trailer for the movie in which Kevin Spacey is magically turned into a cat by Christopher Walken.
Game of Thrones
The news page for the Vivienne Clore acting agency has let slip that Paul Kaye will return for the show's sixth season. Kaye played Thoros of Myr, the member of the Brotherhood without Banners who raised Beric Dondarrion from the dead in season three.
Naturally, this has led to renewed (and wild) speculation that Michelle Fairley could be returning as the resurrected Catelyn Stark, aka Lady Stoneheart. In the books, Brienne and Podrick encounter Thoros and the Brotherhood on their quest, and discover that Beric gave his revived life to raise Catelyn to vengeful undeath as Lady Stoneheart, the new leader of the Brotherhood without Banners. None of that is confirmed though, beyond Kaye's apparent return. [Watchers on the Wall]
Meanwhile, in the wake of the recent news about the show's impending end, HBO programming president Michael Lombardo tells Entertainment Weekly that there are no plans (yet) for any spinoffs or prequels after the show comes to a close:
No. If that were to happen it would have to come from [Benioff and Weiss] really feeling something, or [author George R.R. Martin] really feeling that it was the right thing to do. Not knowing how this particular story ends, I don't know. There are plenty of characters, secondary characters, [that] you could build a world around. We're always going to be drawn to a strong creative vision. But we are not going to do that unless we feel their passion.
The Walking Dead
Lauren Cohan says the next season starts off with a bang, in terms of delivering answers the show should've arguably delivered in the closing moments of the last season:
I think there will be some answers right off the bat, and it will be very, very intense. And then we'll be exploring avenues and relationships that we haven't yet, but you'll definitely be taken on the roller coaster ride. I mean, the season comes back with a pretty intense, explosive start. That much I know.
[E Online]
The Defenders
Eka Darville has confirmed that he'll return as Jessica Jones' Malcolm Ducasse in the series:
Yes. I will be in it. I'm not sure how much yet but I will be in it.
While acknowledging that the show's recent flashbacks haven't been great, Producer Wendy Mericle promises more exciting flashbacks in season five:
I don't want to tip too much, but it's a very good possibility that we'll finally find out how Oliver got that Bratva tattoo and how he learned to speak Russian.
[TV Line]
Fear The Walking Dead
Good news: The show has already been renewed for a third season. [Spoiler TV]

The chimp that attacked a woman in Connecticut reportedly had a closer relationship with its owner than those of some married couples. The chimp bathed, dined, and even slept with its crazy-as-bat-shit owner.
Needless to say, he was likely acting crazy becuase he was living with a crazy woman. Never mind the fact that he is a wild animal. According to animal experts, he likely thought he was protecting his mate when he attacked the owner's friend.
Sad to think the chimp could have been free in the jungle somewhere instead of playing husband to a crazy widow.

I'll not make a habit out of trumpeting upcoming speaking engagements, much less repeating said trumpeting, but for two good reasons, I'm going to make an exception. First, I'll be speaking this Friday at the new California Academy of Sciences and it is one of the most beautiful buildings I've ever seen. Above, a picture of the 2.5 acre living roof that Renzo Piano put on top of the building, and crammed with nearly 2 million native plants. The Academy has just opened its doors, and it is just as thoroughly on the inside as it is out.

If you're organising a trip to Milan, I dare say you have things like hitting the designer stores in mind – this city is, after all, one of Europe's fashion capitals. But did you know that it's also home to some absolutely incredible religious architecture? This makes a little church-based sightseeing a must.
For those of you whose interests tend more towards traditional cultural attractions than shopping, I'm sure this fact will have already caught your attention. The shopaholics among you, however, might not at first see the appeal of discovering ecclesiastical buildings, but trust me – these form some of the city's most spectacular and compelling sights.
To make covering all the attractions that interest you a bit easier, it's a good idea to organise to hire a car at Milan airport. This way, you'll have maximum freedom to visit attractions both within and outside the city without having to build your itinerary around public transport.
Turning our attention back to religious architecture, though, here are three sites I think you really shouldn't miss.
Without doubt, the top religious building in Milan is the spectacular Duomo di Milano, a Gothic masterpiece located in the Piazza del Duomo. Open daily from 07:00 to 19:00 local time, the cathedral is free to explore – but you'll need to be prepared to pay a small fee for the best bits, which include going up to the roof and exploring the baptisteries of Santo Stefano and San Giovanni.
This colossal building spans 11,700 sq m, but for me the most impressive thing about it isn't its size, but rather its artistry. The whole building is made from a beautiful pink-tinged white marble, decorated with stunning statues, sculptures and paintings. Highlights include the gilded statue of Madonnina, the ornate grand doors and the stained glass windows.
It's also well worth visiting the Tesoro del Duomo, which is a real treasure trove of a collection of religious art – 'tesoro', in fact, translates as 'treasure'. Don't miss the chance to climb to the top of the building, from where you'll get glorious views not only across the city, but over the bustling piazza below.
Next on my list is Chiesa di San Maurizio al Monastero Maggiore, which is on the Corso Magenta. Boasting ancient origins, this building once housed the most important female convent in the entire Benedictine order; today, it is where you will find the Archaeological Museum of Milan.
It's generally believed that the building was the work of Gian Giacomo Dulcebuono, who was an architect and sculptor. Looking at the building from the outside, you might not know it was anything particularly special, since its appearance is relatively plain. Inside, however, it's a totally different story, with this place being famous for its ornate gold decorations.
Last on my list – though by no means the only other good example of religious architecture in the city – is the Basilica di San Lorenzo Maggiore. This early Christian basilica can be found at Corso di Porta Ticinese, where it stands as a wonderful piece of living heritage.
Dating all the way back to the 5th century, the building has – as you would expect – undergone several restorations in its lifetime, including a particularly large one in 1573, when the cupola collapsed. And thanks to this care and attention, it's still as spectacular as ever and, as an added bonus, it's free to enter.
While you're here, make sure you don't miss the famous mosaic of Christ among the apostles, which was created in the 4th century and can be seen in the Chapel of Saint Aquilinus. As a quick parting tip, you can't visit the cathedral when mass is taking place – so that's something to be aware of when planning when to visit each attraction.


text: Positive ConclusionFor the DDBs, part measurement occurs after start-up of the production machine and then for every tenth part produced. However in future, the job shop envisages using the Hexagon Metrology machine to measure individual parts, and particularly being able to store the measurement reports and programs long term and recall them at any time. As the TIGO SF is "open" and can be loaded from three sides, there is also the option of measuring larger components in sections. Currently though, the main goal of Köppel AG is to gain greater expertise in using the measuring machine in order to apply its potential in an improved and more universal way.

Winter, the Beginning is here in Mina Already:
We spent a few days dragging all the Moringa trees and other frost sensitive plants into our shed. It has several clear panels in the roof to let in sunshine. It is at 34 to 36 degrees most mornings. We will see how long they keep their leaves inside. The shed is not well insulated so it is still cold in there. There is an old metal barrel in the shed that was designed to heat the shed. We will see if it actually works. Its all an experiment.
Haybale Technique Was Successful and Easy To Maintain:
We dug the one beautiful lavender in this hay bale out by gently pulling away the hay until we got to the roots. Its huge and it may not survive its transplant to a huge tub. Even if only some of it survives the move, I will have a starter plant in Spring.
The haybale garden worked beautifully with lots of abundant tomatoes and squash. I never had to weed or lose plants to little critters like rabbits or chipmunks. The Haybale technique saves your back, time, and really works well. Then when the season is over, you have great mulch to spread around your trees and plants. The only problem is that next year we will have to buy the straw in Fallon which is two hours away. They don't sell it locally here. You must use fresh straw bales each season. The only thing that did not have much was the cucumber. I have not done well with those.
Cold Frame from Free Windows
We were given two huge windows and we built a cold frame around one of the huge tomato plants planted out in one of the hay bales. The other two are two massive to cover. I will let you know how that works. I am hoping it extends our tomoto crop until Nov at least. There are at least 30 green tomatoes on the vine yet.
Closing for now.....great to be online again and getting back to writing. Have a great day and week!

We measured growth and grazing rates of three heterotrophic dinoflagellate species Oxyrrhis marina, Gyrodinium dominans and G. spirale exposed to starved versus continuously-fed prey conditions and assessed their starvation survival ability. All three dinoflagellate species survived long periods (>10 days) without prey, up to 118 days in the case of O. marina. After 1-3 weeks, starvation led to a 17-57% decrease in grazer cell volume and cells became more deformed and transparent over time. Starved grazers rapidly ingested new prey within 3 hours as evidenced by increased cell volumes of 4-17%. Grazer cultures that were starved had much lower maximum growth rates (-0.16-0.25 d-1) than continuously-fed cultures (0.18-0.55 d-1) at an equivalent prey concentration. This suggested a time lag >3 days for all heterotrophic dinoflagellate species to reach their maximum growth rate. Long survival ability coupled with immediate post-starvation ingestion may offer heterotrophic dinoflagellates an advantage over other grazers (e.g. ciliates) in the ability to exploit patchy prey. Delayed grazer population growth and ingestion after starvation has important implications on how we view predator dynamics in a prey-patchy ocean and especially at the onset of seasonal phytoplankton blooms.

The great and the good will descend upon Fort William on Monday morning, as they wave shovels around, in front of a newspaper photographer. What is the special occasion they are commemorating? What momentous event is occurring at Blar Mor? Has the new Tesco miraculously materialised without anyone noticing?
No, it is nothing as exciting as the grand opening of the long awaited out-of-town supermarket. Instead, it is just an excuse for a few dignitaries to get together for a turf cutting ceremony to launch the construction of our new police station. No doubt, the new facilities are important for our police and ambulance service. However, do we really need an invitation list that includes the Chairman of the Police Board, coming all the way from the Western Isles? On top of that, your seven local councillors are invited, along with four senior police officers and five managers from the police force and ambulance service. Then, there is a cosy little buffet lunch afterwards.
I won't be attending!
In a few months' time, the whole thing will be replicated, again, as the new station finally opens. If we are going to arrange anything, it should be then, when the whole community can come along as part of an open day. Why are we wasting time and money for a small group of "worthies" to do little more than say, "isn't this wonderful" as they grin for next week's edition of the Lochaber News?

Murray to miss rest of the season
World No. 2 Andy Murray said yesterday he is unlikely to play again this season due to a nagging hip injury that forced him to pull out of the US Open.
Murray, recently nudged off the top of the world rankings by Rafael Nadal, has been struggling with the injury since a five-set French Open semi-final loss to Stan Wawrinka in June.
The 30-year-old Scot played at Wimbledon in July, but lost in the quarter-finals to American Sam Querrey.
"Unfortunately, I won't be able to compete in the upcoming events... And, most likely, the final two events to finish the season... Due to my hip injury which has been bothering me the last few months," the three-time Grand Slam champion said on his Facebook page.
"Having consulted with a number of leading hip specialists over the last week, along with my own team, we have decided that this is the best decision for my long-term future," said the Scot.
"Although this has been a frustrating year on court for many reasons, I'm confident after this extended period of rest and rehabilitation that I will be able to reach my best level again and be competing for Grand Slam titles next season.
"I will be beginning my 2018 season in Brisbane in preparation for the Australian Open."
Murray, who has won Wimbledon twice as well as the US Open, said he was looking forward to playing in Glasgow later in the year in a charity exhibition match against Roger Federer.
"I have a fantastic team working alongside me to help me through this and appreciate the support from them and all of my fans over this difficult period," he wrote.
The men's game is currently beset by a glut of injuries to big-name players such as Wawrinka, Novak Djokovic, Kei Nishikori and Milos Raonic, who are all missing from the ongoing US Open in New York. - AFP

When we talk about the urban impact of the Olympics, we tend to focus on the grim economic outlook for host cities who build too much, too big, and too fast at the behest of the Olympic Committee. London may be stuck dealing with dozens of vacant venues for years, but there is also the occasional silver lining. To wit: the Movement Cafe, a temporary tea stop and performance space for local artists, situated at the gateway to the Olympic development site.
The Movement is a collaboration between designer Morag Myerscough and Olympic poet (and prolific tweeter) Lemn Sissay. It was built in just 16 days–"from a hole in the ground," says Myerscough–thanks to the framework of shipping containers that make up its structural skeleton. The plywood-clad spaces inside host a small cafe selling locally sourced fare (including homemade ice cream), plus a performance area, where nightly readings and shows will continue into December.
"I have an obsession with 3-D type at the moment and knew it was what I wanted to use on this project," Myerscough tells Co.Design over email. "It had the right voice." The cafe looks larger than it is, thanks to a crown of scaffolding erected to support a series of plywood signs. Each board, hand-painted in eye-popping neons by Myerscough's three-person (and a dog) team, contains a snippet of a poem by Sissay:
This is the House.
This is the Path.
This is the Gate.
This is the Opening.
This is the Morning.
This is a Person Passing.
This is Eye Contact.
In the outdoor area, handmade stools and pillows Myerscough and artist Luke Morgan (both members of London design collective Supergroup) are covered in other Sissay quotes. Weekly performances by local poets, musicians, and DJs animate the space at night–you're welcome to bring your own booze (for a £3 corking fee).
The whole thing seems very civilized: come hang out, have a cup of tea (or champagne), and read a bit. The cafe is run by the Greenwich Co-Operative Development Agency, a 30-year-old nonprofit that supports "alternative businesses" and social entrepreneurship in London's low-income neighborhoods.
The cafe proves a simple point. Olympic development and locally sourced entrepreneurship aren't mutually exclusive. Here, they've formed a symbiotic relationship. Unfortunately, the cafe is only temporary. After Christmas, it'll be razed to make way for a permanent mixed-use development. But something of it will remain–one of SIssay's poems, this one about Greenwich's industrial past, will be permanently etched into the sidewalk.

Jeff Bleich had a word of advice to all his mates out there flooding his Facebook page with all things Aussie.
"If you stop sending me e-mails about Foster's beer and your favorite Crocodile Dundee lines, I'll re-friend you," he told a crowd of about 200 late Friday in the San Francisco City Hall rotunda just after being sworn in as the ambassador to Australia.
The event, organized by Bleich's now former law firm — Munger, Tolles & Olson — had quite a turnout. California Chief Justice Ronald George was on hand, as were several judges, including First District Justice Martin Jenkins. A group of State Bar folk, including Executive Director Judy Johnson, attended as a reminder of Bleich's year as State Bar president.
Christopher Paul De Cure, the L.A.-based Australian consulate general, showed up, as did baseball great Willie Mays, a longtime friend and client of Bleich's.
We can't believe we had to show up to work on "Jeff Bleich Day." More after the jump …
Bleich was sworn in by U.S. District Judge Thelton Henderson and received accolades from several people, including San Francisco City Attorney Dennis Herrera and U.S. District Judge Marilyn Hall Patel. Friday was named "Jeff Bleich Day" in San Francisco, where Bleich worked, and in Piedmont, where his family lives.
Bleich gave a short speech in which he stressed the importance of partnerships — specifically with his wife of 25 years and his law firm — and how they also applied to the United States' relationship with Australia.
"We have no greater friend in the world," he said. "We've stayed true to each other."
Getting Down to Business
Earlier in the week, during a telephone conversation, Bleich told Legal Pad he was in for a lot of work because he will be overseeing the interests of 17 federal agencies, including the Department of Defense.
"Everybody thinks it's just dinners and cocktail parties," he said. "But there is a tremendous amount of work."
Bleich, who spent several months this year working as special counsel to President Obama, said his family — he has two teenage boys and a younger daughter — is looking forward to the adventure of living on another continent.
"They're really thrilled," he said. "We all loved my working at the White House when they'd come to visit. But this job is one where we can serve our country as a family."
Bleich said his new job will take him around Asia and the South Pacific tackling problems such as climate change, nuclear non-proliferation and relations with China.
But he's also hoping to have some fun. For one, he's already planning a trip to Tasmania to see penguins and really hopes to hop down to Antarctica.
"It's a great set of policy challenges and it's also a family adventure," Bleich said. "It's certainly a time in life when you need to embrace the unexpected."
Bleich flew off to Australia on Saturday. Check out his bio on the U.S. embassy's Web site.

Tarheel #13 Cameron Johnson plays the game very well…
Not just for being a member of the defending national champion UNC hoops squad, but for being well on his way to earning a graduate degree while still on scholarship. Like Dallas Cowboy quarterback Dac Prescott, who earned his graduate and undergraduate degree while on a football scholarship at Mississippi State University, Johnson joins a growing number of college athletes in all sports who are leaving school with a master's degree, too.
Andrew Weidinger walked on to the football team at William & Mary and left as the starting fullback with not just a BA and MA in accounting, but also a CPA soon thereafter added to his list of letters.
"In the recruiting process, William & Mary made the point that I could leave with both a BA and MA in Accounting," recalls Weidinger, who is now with the accounting firm PwC. "They pointed out that I would most likely be a redshirt and should use that extra year to earn a graduate degree."
This support for and direction to a graduate degree continued over the course of his letterman career at William & Mary.
So well did it work that Weidinger was the nominee for the William V. Campbell Trophy. Called the "Academic Heisman," it is awarded annually by the National Football Foundation for academics, community service, and on-field performance. The athletic program at William & Mary worked well for others, too.
Tight end Eric Hensley, another walk-on, used his varsity career to earn two masters from William & Mary, the first player ever to graduate with a total of three degrees! This was a product of a dedicated athletic department as Weidinger notes that, "There were weekly meetings with academic advisers to discuss social education along with other topics. We had mandatory study halls with our work continually monitored by the staff."
"The coaching staff at William & Mary constantly emphasized that you are here to earn a degree from one of the best schools in the country. We will try to help you realize your NFL dream, they would say, but school comes first," he remembers.
According to the National Football Foundation, 954 players took the field this season after earning their undergraduate degree.
These student-athletes evince how an athletic scholarship to an American school, even without the graduate degree kicker, is the best deal in the history of college sports for players. It can be worth hundreds of thousands of dollars annually. According to an article in Forbes, future earnings can be $2 million higher than for those without a degree. By every measure, college athletes perform better than others. Those like Weidinger, Hensley and the 954 football players this year are further proof of the success of athletic directors and programs in graduating scholar-athletes, with more and more now earning advanced degrees to enhance their career prospects.
The most important part of a college athletic scholarship is the academic opportunity and, with it, the unparalleled support for the student-athlete to maximize their career potential.
Few college athletes will go on to play professional sports. But all receive tremendous institutional support in finishing their college degree if they are responsible. For those who listen and perform, there is a graduate degree to top off their career as a student-athlete!

Dance your nuts and bolts off in DeNA's new Robot Dance Party rhythm-based game
Do you have what it takes to build a lean machine that can do a bionic breakdance and even pull off a twerky twang? There's only one way to find out, and that's to play Robot Dance Party on your iOS device.
Recently released by DeNA, Robot Dance Party is a new rhythm-based game for iOS that tasks you with assembling your own dynamic dancer from various robot parts. "The parts chosen by players not only affect the looks and personal styles of the Dance Bot," the developer notes, "but they also determine how the robot dances, delivering refreshing moves and entertaining gameplay."
Robot Dance Party features several different game modes, including solo, freestyle, and player-versus-player, in which instant replays can be shared on Facebook.
If you can't see the video embedded above, please click here.
As for your robot's special dance moves, you can unlock and collect the Go Bananas, the Helicopter, the Spacewalk, and, of course, the Robot, among many others.
Compatible with iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad running iOS 6.0 or later, Robot Dance Party is available now on the App Store for free.
I've been able to play the game with nary a problem. But according to some of its App Store reviews, Robot Dance Party is prone to crashes, suggesting that the game itself may be in need of a bit of rewiring.

As millions of students head back to school in coming weeks, they'll be toting more than just a few notebooks and a backpack. Increasingly, public schools are leaning on families to outfit entire classrooms, asking them to supply items as varied as cardstock, copier paper, hand sanitizer and Band-Aids.
"The supply list that used to be sent home was very short — you were asked to bring a notebook and pencils and pens and paper," said Michael Griffith, a senior policy analyst at the Education Commission of the States, a nonpartisan think tank. "We've seen that list creep up and up, and now you start seeing things like tissues and toilet paper and cleaning supplies. Things you weren't normally asked to bring a decade ago. It's a hidden type of fee."
With school districts strapped for funds and looking to trim expenses, many have turned to parents for help with basic supplies that many people assume are part of a school district's operating budget.
Tim Sullivan, a former teacher, founded TeacherLists.com, a Web site on which 800,000 teachers have posted their supply lists for the coming school year. Among the items on the lists: standard erasers and pencils, trash bags and disinfecting wipes.
"You see complaints from parents who say, 'Gosh, seriously? I have to provide paper? There are no tissues at school?' " Sullivan said. "I'm 46, and I can remember big rolls of paper towels, big industrial-size tissue boxes. Very few districts are buying their own tissues now."
For the coming school year, families, on average, will spend $642 for elementary school students, $918 for middle school students and $1,284 for high school students, according to a recent study by Huntington Bank. Those amounts include not only school supplies but also fees, which schools are increasingly charging for extracurricular activities, workbooks, textbooks and the use of school laboratories.
Since the bank first started analyzing school spending in 2007 as part of its "Backpack Index," costs have increased 83 percent for elementary school students, 73 percent for middle-schoolers and 44 percent for high school students. The bank measures the cost of classroom supply lists and school fees in six states: Ohio, Michigan, Pennsylvania, Indiana, West Virginia and Kentucky.
Those rising costs, which far outpace the rate of inflation and wage increases, place a particular burden on the growing number of students from low-income families in the nation's public schools.
Felicia Massie, a 57-year-old resident of Northeast Washington, fretted last year because she couldn't afford to buy school supplies for her youngest son, David, then a student at Cardozo High School.
"It makes you feel like you're less than a mother," said Massie, who is disabled and lives on food stamps and $750 a month from Social Security. "It makes you cry in the middle of the night. . . . When this child was born, I had so many hopes and dreams I thought I would be able to provide for, and then life happens and your body breaks down. You feel like less than nothing."
Massie found out about Communities In Schools, a national nonprofit organization that provides support to 1.5 million students in high-poverty schools, including Cardozo. "They gave him a backpack of school supplies, a calculator, ink, pencils, paper, notebook. Just the calculator alone is $30. I couldn't afford that. They gave him everything the school is supposed to provide."
A D.C. Public Schools spokeswoman declined to answer questions about school requests for supplies.
While nearly all schools frame supply lists as a request and not a requirement, the assumption that families will comply is stressful for those with low incomes, said Dan Cardinali, president of Communities In Schools.
"This expansion of school supply expectations beyond just the student becomes not just another barrier, it sends out a signal to a family that you're inadequate," Cardinali said. "It tells them that not only can't they outfit their kid, now they can't support the institution, either."
Cuts to education budgets have meant bigger class sizes and fewer programs in many school districts, and schools are increasingly turning to families to fill in gaps. An analysis by the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities found that 35 states spent less per student in 2014 than they had before the Great Recession.
[After a decade of growth, the nation's spending on K-12 schools has been falling ]
At the same time, public schools have more students who come from low-income families. In the 2012-2013 school year, 51 percent of students in pre-kindergarten through 12th grade were eligible for the federal program that provides free and reduced-price lunches.
[A majority of public school students are from low-income families]
Nanette Anderson, a disabled, unemployed single mother of six, struggles to come up with money for supplies and fees requested by the public schools in her small community of Ottawa, Kan.
When her three younger sons return to high school this week, they won't have all the supplies their teachers requested. "If people ain't got it, they ain't got it," said Anderson, 44, whose family relies on $700 a month from Social Security.
"All of this extra stuff — tissues, Germ-X — she can't provide, she has to go in and talk to the principal and stuff to tell him there's no way she can afford it," said daughter Kimber Linnell, 21. "We use whatever we already have, like old binders that aren't torn or shredded; we get mechanical pencils so all you have to do is replace the lead."
Cardinali, of Communities In Schools, said "supply creep" is a gradual phenomenon that isn't getting the attention it deserves.
"There either has to be an honest conversation on a public level about what expectations are for families to supply schools directly out of their own pocketbook or a reallocation around budgets in terms of supplying schools with the resources they need," he said. "We really ought to have a public conversation about this."

Some time ago I bought a few different hand cremes from Rituals… Imagine (now called The Ritual of Sakura) was one of them. It smells of rice milk and cherry blossoms and the scent is so so so lovely, I'm completely obsessed with it. When I saw that there was a matching hand wash I just had to get it too!
Rituals… The Ritual of Sakura hand wash & hand lotion
I have now used both of them for a few weeks and I have to say that they are already favorites, and I will definitely purchase them again when I run out.
They both contain 300 ml and retail for 90 kr (hand wash) / 140 kr (hand lotion) which is pretty much product for the price.
Have you tried The Ritual of Sakura and do you like it as much as I do?

Both the Town and the Columbia Shuswap Regional District are celebrating a win this week after coming to an agreement to fund the Golden Municipal Swimming Pool using Economic Opportunity Funds (EOF).
The agreement was formally ratified by the CSRD last week and will ease the burden placed on taxpayers of Golden, as the Town previously footed the $275,000 annual bill to operate the pool.
"It's pretty monumental," she Mayor Christina Benty. "What it does is recognizes the regional nature of the pool and of recreational services. It's a huge cost to municipal taxpayers that is now going to be done through the EOF."
EOF is money that can be used for services that benefit residents of both Golden and Area A.
The decision to jointly fund the pool comes as the Town and the CSRD continue to explore shared services agreements for services that have benefits to residents of both Golden and Area A.
Kicking Horse Culture and the Nordic Ski Club have similarly received funding through EOF.
Area A Director Garry Habart prefers this method over taxation.
"Funding through taxation is tough for me…in order to get tax money for that it would have to be through a referendum," Habart said. "(The EOF) is community economic development money…and I think that kind of money should be used for swimming pools and arenas and even Kicking Horse Culture is being funded by that. In my view, that's what those funds should be used for."
The agreement is just for 2015, but Mayor Benty hopes that it will set a precedent for the future of both the pool and other opportunities for cost-sharing.
"The very fact that there is a recognition that this facility serves Golden and area, I think it opens the door and allows for that conversation to take place," she said.

Hydronic Heat / Boilers
Hydronic Heat
All hydronic heating systems have one thing in common: hot water. Hydronic heating systems provide warmth by pumping hot water to radiators, to under-floor tubing, or to heat exchangers. KCS can go over the different types of hydronic heating available and explain why a certain system might work best for you. We also offer repair & maintenance services.
Boilers heat water that is used in different "hydronic" heating systems. So-called "combi-boilers" are designed to supply hot water for washing as well as for whole-house heating. With boiler-based heating, you don't get any ductwork unless your hot water supplies a "hydro-air" forced-air heating system. No matter which kind of furnace or boiler you have in your home, KCS will be able to provide the appropriate repairs or replacement options.
Our goal is to provide excellence in service in both the quality of our work and the experience with our team. We strive daily to ensure our clients are the happiest in Northern Virginia.

This project designs and disseminates a strategy to achieve the fundamental European goal of redesigning Higher Education, facilitating the application of Bologna principles across Europe. The objective is pursued through the design of an integrated curriculum where the delivery of academic content is coterminous with, and enhanced by, the acquisition of competences and transversal skills appropriate for the digital age.
Our chosen disciplinary area is the Humanities because it is considered a bulwark of traditional and conservative behaviour, and an area that needs support in identifying direct links between academic studies and employability/professionalization.
