Not too rough. Just enough texture to work great!

by Nori M.
One of my daughters has battled with her complexion since she was a teenager she is 29 now. Over the holidays I noticed how nice her complexion looked and mentioned it to her. She told me she had been using this amazing exfoliating cloth she ordered from your catalog. She sent me the link, but I had just purchased one of those face scrubbing type of gadgets that runs on batteries so I kind of a blew it off. Well I found myself completely disappointed with it and thought what the heck so I ordered 2 of the cloths .One for myself and the other for my mom who by the way is 66 and you would never in a million years know it. Well long story short she said she had one so I gave it to my son who loved it! I loved mine. We are all unbelievably pleased with this cloth. Not only do all our complexions look great, but the brown spots I have on the side of my face have faded dramatically. We are all customers for life. Thank you for this amazing product.

by Happy User
Since using this, I've noticed a tremendous difference in my skin. Suffering from acne as a kid, I was left with blemishes and enlarged pores. Throughout the years, I tried using many other products to no avail. Most of them were simply to harsh for my very sensitive skin, while others did nothing. However, after using this, my blemishes have disappeared and my enlarged pores have been drastically reduced in size. I call this my miracle product. So glad I discovered this. I am indeed one happy user!

by Melisa
Skin feels good after each use . . . haven't noticed any great differences in my skin but it does feel like a bit of a treat when I use it. I have acne and large pores and had hoped that it would help reduce at least one of these and it has not.
The best thing I
by Wow
The best thing I ever did for my skin.I see better results with the Exfolia cloth than I do with my "sonic" scrub that I've used for 2 years.
The cloth has lived
by Amalfi mom
The cloth has lived up to its promise! Although at first it appears too soft to be exfoliating the proof is in the feel of your skin afterwards.In addition my serum gets absorbedin a whoosh and it appears to me that that is making my anti aging products work better...I am a happy camper.
The cloth leaves my
by Julie
The cloth leaves my skin feeling very soft and noticeably smoother.I've only been using it for two weeks, but I do think there is a lasting difference in my skin texture.My one small disappointment is that it is not entirely effective at makeup removal, especially one with sunscreen, so I find it best to remove the makeup first then wash with the cloth.I'd rather not have the extra step, but the end results are worth it.
The Exfolia cloth is
by Gator Gal
The Exfolia cloth is second only to the Microdermamitt for sheer wondrousness.It does for my face, neck and decolletage what the Microdermamitt does for the rest of me.I don't think my skin has ever been this good soft, glowing, healthy-looking and I'm 55 years old.Not to mention what regular exfoliation does for my general feeling of well-being -- stimulates the circulation, pampers the biggest organ in my body and just feels divine.Both of these products last at least three months before they need to be replaced, and I don't intend to do without them again, ever!

The Exfolia cloth seems to be working.My skin is softer than before.Blackheads and enlarged pores will take longer I think.

The exfolia cloths are AMAZING. They keep my dry and sensitive skin soft, minimize pores, and prevent breakouts. I've been using them for 6 months now and don't plan to stop. I've bought some for my whole family.

The product works great and I would have given it five stars had it not been for the price. It seems really high for such a small item.

by sjmorgan
This cloth has really made a difference in my skin tone and has kept away blemishes.My pre-teen daughter has been having some minor break outs and she's used it and noticed it cleared up dramatically, smoothing her skin and clearing up blemishes.It must be the deep cleaning action.Either way, we love the results so far.You don't need to use it everyday.A few days a week is all that is needed and be sure not to rub too hard, as it will be somewhat sore almost sun burned feeling.We learned the hard way.Will buy again so each family member can have their own.
This cloth is amazing.

This cloth is amazing. I'm ordering another for me and one for each of my daughters.

RALEIGH, N.C. (AP) — A North Carolina university official has resigned from his post in the wake of complaints by conservative activists about his Twitter posts that made disparaging comments about Republicans.
News outlets report NC State University confirmed that vice chancellor and dean for student affairs Mike Mullen resigned, effective Friday. While the school acknowledged Mullen's decision, it didn't say why he resigned. The News & Observer of Raleigh reports Mullen's resignation came hours after an NC State student who has been active in conservative politics wrote for a conservative website TheCollegeFix.com, that Mullen's tweets made him and other conservative students feel alienated.
An online description says TheCollegeFix.com focuses on higher education.
Mullen was also a professor in the university's crop sciences department. No one answered the phone at Mullen's office on Friday.

Associate Programs Newsletter #347
Chris Rempel describes himself as a "lazy" super affiliate.
For a lazy man, he's managed to accomplish an awful lot.

* CPA Quality is the only network that pays every 7 days with MyHealthyInfo
1. Confessions of a Lazy Super Affiliate
Chris Rempel's new report, "Confessions of a Lazy Super Affiliate", is unlike any other affiliate instruction manual I've read.
Fist, I'll tell you a couple of things Chris doesn't discuss.
* He doesn't tell you how to use AdSense. Chris says AdSense is "for dummies". Do things his way, and you can make far more from affiliate products.
* He doesn't discuss any form of paid advertising. He prefers to attract free traffic from search engines, because it's a more "hands-off" technique.
* He doesn't believe you should "follow your passion".
What he DOES describe is hands-off, affiliate income, the "smart way". He shows you a multi-step income plan.
He tells you in detail how to identify and target the type of visitor who is likely to BUY something. In fact, he specializes in finding large, never-ending supplies of such people.
The first section of the course describes how to build a 20-page mini-site that is targeted at visitors who are on the verge of buying a product. That's how you make the real money in this business, he says.
"If you're not gearing all of your energies towards attracting BUYERS in your affiliate marketing activities – you are severely wasting your time," he says.
I like this "lazy" man's style. Instead of doing the hard work of convincing someone to buy something, he says you should simply be standing in front of the right crowd and and saying, "Oh – you're looking for XYZ? Yeah, I would be, too. It's over here at whatever.com?aff_id=yournickname."
Your mini-site does NOT merely contain rewritten PLR articles or any old articles on your chosen topic. Remember, you don't just want to attract visitors – you want to attract BUYERS. So you have to follow a carefully considered, logical structure designed to achieve affiliate sales. He tells you how he does it.
In fact, following a logical process is a key feature of this course.
If you do things Chris's way, you'll see the whole picture, the whole logical, coherent structure of your affiliate business, in which all the pieces fit together, so that every action you take gives you leverage and mulitiplies your sales.
He takes you through a structured process he's using – all the way from research and testing, from one little 20-page mini-site, to multiple mini-sites, to creating related freeware (no, he's NOT a programmer), to viral software marketing, to creating your own little "feeder" products, to creating a huge Mother Site, to creating more feeder products, so that eventually you capture and dominate your market and you own rock solid assets.
He even tells you lazy ways to publish a newsletter – and still achieve good sales.
But all that comes only AFTER your mini-sites have started cranking out reliable cash.
He says his mini-sites alone are bringing in at least $250 daily for him, on a bad day.
As you might expect from a "lazy" marketer, he outsources every scrap of work he possibly can, and he has a system for doing this. He includes a section with good tips on "Outsourcing on a Budget". You can outsource as much or as little as you like.
Chris finishes with a 9-step summary in which he quickly sums up everything he teaches in the course.
It's designed for intermediate-level marketers and webmasters. It's only 62 pages. He doesn't waste your time on fluff.
"Confessions of a Lazy Super Affiliate" will jump start your business thinking and show you how to create a logical affiliate business structure, in which each action you take provides powerful leverage, boosting other parts of your affiliate business, and boosting your "hands-off" sales.
Chris says he's used this exact process for the past 12 months and has created a six-figure "hands-off" income by doing so. Even if you get only as far as Step 1 and Step 2, this book could change your affiliate marketing forever.
"Confessions" is very moderately priced. It's excellent value.
2. Thought for today: A magical effect
"Patience and perseverance have a magical effect before which difficulties disappear and obstacles vanish." – John Quincy Adams.
All the best

The Sorrow of War is a unique war novel in that it places special attention on the different parts of the lives of its characters: before the war, and after. The main character, Kien, takes up most of the book with his life stories. However, there are several other characters who have their post war stories told in this novel. Such characters include Phuong, Lan, and Sinh. The course of their lives after the war are very significant to the meaning and purpose of this novel.
Kien was already known to live in his pre-war past. The book tends to occasionally focus on the better days of his life, when he was still young and innocent. However, the war had jaded and scarred him, both in body and mind. The horrors and atrocities stayed with all of the soldiers who had the misfortune of surviving the war: ". . . psychological scars of the war will remain forever" (193). Even the memories of battles torture the souls of soldiers, just like Kien. He uses many different examples in the novel: the three girls in the farmhouse, the brutal death of Quang, the rape and sacrifice of Hoa. These are only few of the graphic depictions of loss and suffering in war. Things like these stay with the men and women forever, coming back in the form of PTSD that forces them to relive the horrific events. This is shown in Kien, as he admits that he had no choice but to write the things that were going through his head as he remembered such events, or he might have gone insane. At some point feelings become numbed, as Kien says, "One was totally devoid of feeling and had no regard for the clever or the stupid, the brave or the cowardly, commanders or privates, friend of foe, or death, happiness or sadness. It was all the same; it amounted to nothing" (213). After the war, Kien lived bleakly and meaninglessly. He visited people of his past, wrote down his memories, and waited for Phoung. He represents the lack of purpose many soldiers find upon their return home from a long war. He had joined the war as a young man, and grew up into an adult through the heat of battle, leaving no time for him to build a life to return to when the fighting was over. The atrocious war had been his life, a cruel and hard one. Kien's life after the war was one of no purpose, direction, or joy.
Phoung had been a young and beautiful young woman, as described by Kien. She had long black hair and pale smooth skin. Free-spirited and rebellious, she was a model for youthful perfection. She had an angelic voice, and had a talent for the guitar and piano. But she was also very delicate, like an easily breakable fine China teacup. Her mother had predicted a drastic change that would befall Phoung. She said, "The girl's soul would become warped and twisted when she played in the mainstream of life" (201). This was true, but much worse than her mother must have imagined, as the "mainstream" of life for women had become hellish during and after the war. She had undergone the first break in her soul on the first day of the attacks, after she decided to accompany Kien to the front lines. There she was separated from him, and attacked and raped by multiple men, only to have to see the one person she could have trusted lose his mind and brutally murder a man right in front of her. In a single day she had gone from being an innocent kind young woman, to a damaged rape victim. After the event, she was instantly jaded. She lost her sense of personal value, seeing herself as unclean and impure: "'. . . even if I do bathe, even if I peel my entire skin away, I'll be just as unclean'" (217). Phoung hadn't even been a soldier in the war, yet she was already a victim of it. Rape is a huge and common problem in times of war, where men forget any sense of civility or compassion, and lose themselves to savagery. Phoung represents a large majority of women who fell victims to such men. Whose lives were forever changed, damaged. At that time, there was a very slim chance of Phoung finding the love and support she needed to recover, and feel her self-worth again. She lost herself and did not have any care for whom she slept with, or what happened to her. War had left her empty, and alone, with no hope of recovery. Phuong's life after the war was one of self-hatred and desolation.
Lan had been a shy girl from the countryside when Kien first met her during his years as a recruit. After the war, he decided to pay her and her mother a visit, only to find that she was alone. The war had taken her family from her. First, it had taken her elder brother, and then her second. Her mother had received the news in the same day with the second death certificate courier coming only a few hours later with the horrible news. The heartache was too much for the older woman, so she collapsed in a faint, then slipped into a coma. It lasted three days before she died. The the war had taken Lan's husband only six months after he left to fight. She received a letter from his comrade with the news. Finally, the war had taken her two-day-old infant as well. The stress of her loss caused by the war most likely affected the child in her womb, weakening it, so that after birth, it couldn't survive. It was a surprise that Lan herself was able to survive such loss without any support. "'First my brothers, then my mother, then my husband, then my son. No wonder I feel weaker every year. I live in this shell of loneliness, going from house to hill, hill to house, and around the hamlet, with no one paying any attention to me and me not noticing others'" (54). Lan represents the agony of loss that is caused by war. The agony many experienced when their loved ones never returned home, leaving a void where they once were. Lan's life after the war was one of lonely emptiness, one that was impossible to fill.
Sinh was a childhood friend of Kien and Phoung. He had joined the army after Kien, but was wounded and sent back home. He seemed in decent shape, and had developed plans for the future, like marriage, before his body slowly, became paralyzed. It started from his left leg, then his right, as it slowly made its way up his body. During his time in the hospital, he tried to remain enthusiastic, never complaining about his plight, and making sure his visitors felt comfortable. When Kien visited, he talked to him about the good days when they were young, and other, more pleasant things, as long as they didn't have anything to do with his current situation. Sinh wanted to remain himself as long as he could, his passionate, poetic, and optimistic self. That, however, didn't last. He was sent home from the hospital to await his death. His health deteriorated, and soon he was no longer the old Sinh. By Kien's next visit, his lungs had collapsed, his hair had fallen out, and his face was as sunken and bony as a skeleton's. By then Kien could tell that he had lost his will to live, he was just a soul trapped in a dying body, waiting to be released. His life had reached a terrible end. Rather than a quick death, he was condemned to die slowly. To have the life sucked out of him, along with what made him who he was. "'. . . I wish I could kill myself and end everything quickly. War has robbed me of the liberty I deserve'" (79). His death had taken four years before its bitter end. His fate was shared by many others who weren't lucky enough for a swift death. Men who returned home with damaged paralyzed spines. Men who were left forgotten in ditches, slowly bleeding out over a span of days. Men whose wounds became infected, poisoning their blood, only for them to slowly die in a septic haze. Sinhs life after the war, like countless others, ended slowly and painfully.
Even after the war had been won, the lives of many had been destroyed or lost in the process. The victory against the South wouldn't restore their lives and bring back their loved ones who had been taken by the violence. People who survived were forced to live with whatever was left of their lives after the war, be it loneliness, hatred, emptiness, or loss. As Kien had said, "Justice may have won, but cruelty, death, and inhuman violence have also won" (193).

The red lines on the clock form themselves into numbers I can read. 7:58 a.m. The kiddos are off to school, husband at work, and I walk to the computer, move the mouse to the Spotify icon at the bottom left corner of the screen. I have to think about which side it is since I still don't know my left from right without thinking consciously about it.
I scroll through playlists, and a title on my daughter's list catches my eye.
Less than a minute later, I feel the cold tile under my bare toes scraping back and forth as I do jumping jacks. And I'm singing along….
I'll tell you what I want, what I really, really want.
My arms are burning (from yesterday's arm workout) each time my hands sweep over my head and I want to cry. Instead I yell….
So tell me what you want, what you really, really want.
I continue to the chorus as my body yells for me to stop, but I keep jumping and counting and singing and up and down and counting and yelling.
What in heaven's name is a "zig-a-zig-a" anyway? I don't care. I just keep moving. Down to the floor for push ups. I yell the mocking words that are echoing in my brain that someone recently said to me, "Before trying more advanced moves, maybe you should learn to do a regular push up first."
I laugh to myself, and my shoulders buckle underneath me, screaming inside my skin. I can almost hear them. The weights I take in my hand pull me lower, lower, harder, stronger, but I lift them anyway; I raise them higher and longer and more than I ever have.
I drop to the floor, put my hands down to support me, and walk my feet up the wall for a handstand. Tighten abs, I tell myself as I try to hang on for one more second.
A new voice half-sings, half-raps over the speakers about fish in the sea, and I am back on the tile with more jumping jacks. Sting. Ow. Keep going. A few more minutes. You can do this. (The endorphins must be kicking in somehow….)
Drop for another set of push ups. More jumping jacks. Squats. Punches. Punches with squats. And I'm yelling with Hot Chelle Rae about a "really, really messed up week." I can relate to that line. And I'm punching harder, and my shoulders are still on fire as my legs threaten to crumble underneath me, landing me in a pile of ruin like the photos of Pompeii I saw in grade school.
Maybe I should give my body a break….
Nope, to the rug for abs. Crunch, one-two-three-four-five, (suck it in), seven-eight-nine, (watch your neck), ten-eleven, (dang, I forgot to pray for Dad this morning). I holler an audible prayer through labored inhales and exhales in time with the crunches and lose count. Bicycling until my abs are screaming. I hope I can move tomorrow…or even later today.
One more shoulder move…one more song.
I know how I "Wannabe."

WALES fly-half Jarrod Evans only got 63 minutes of action in the Six Nations but believes he will reap the rewards from watching Dan Biggar at close quarters.
The Cardiff Blues playmaker came off the bench in the games against Italy, Ireland and France before being an unused replacement against England.
The 23-year-old must wait for cap number seven because of the postponement of the final against Scotland and will have more competition when Wayne Pivac's men next meet up.
Gareth Anscombe and Rhys Patchell will be back from injury but the elusive Evans believes he has made strides thanks to a first camp with Pivac, whose high-octane style should suit the Blues man.
"I've learnt quite a few things off Biggs and we get on really well, and once the game starts to break up a little bit at that level then it allows me to express myself more," said Evans, who started in the uncapped game against the Barbarians in November.
"There was more intent to play a bit during the Six Nations and with a bit more familiarity for players and coaches, it will only get better.
"For myself, by watching and playing you gain more experience and the more minutes you get under your belt, the more you adjust and get comfortable at that level.
"I probably wish I could've got more game time but it's a case of being patience and know that the more minutes the better I'll be.
"I'm constantly trying to adapt to what the international stage brings but I'm really enjoying it."
After limited Test game time, Evans has been denied a chance to get back out in the middle in regional colours because of the coronavirus outbreak.
The suspension of the Guinness PRO14 and government restrictions have led to all professional rugby players getting used to staying in touch through technology and grafting on individual training plans.
Instead of the usual top-class facilities, Evans is hard at work in the garage.
"Obviously the circumstances aren't ideal but I know that a few of the boys have borrowed weights from Cardiff Blues and from the National Centre of Excellence, which is pretty good," said Evans.
"A lot of boys are working from home and you just have to do what you can do. I've got a bit of an old school set-up at my girlfriend's grandmother's house and I'm pretty fortunate to have it all there for me.
"I know a few boys have got set-ups in their garages and houses as well and it's just a case of being proactive with the work you do.
"The nutritionists and strength and conditioning coaches have all set in plans for the next few weeks, with running sessions, weight sessions and diet plans.
"They've worked pretty hard across the board, with Wales and the Blues, on providing top quality service for us and we're all really grateful for that.
"At the moment, we're all speaking a fair bit through text and I've caught up with one or two of the boys but it's been pretty tough in the circumstances to catch up with them and it's only going to get more serious."
The Six Nations finale is likely to be slotted in before the autumn internationals while Wales are scheduled to go on tour this summer, facing Japan before two Tests with New Zealand.
"I had a good conversation with Mark Robinson, the CEO of New Zealand Rugby, on Sunday night," said WRU chief executive Martyn Phillips.
"Our commitment to them is if their authorities are happy to stage those games, then we'll go. If it's at all possible to play those matches, we would want to play them for our partners in New Zealand."

Guidelines For Mobile Health Applications – Examining The Xcertia Guidelines' Initial Release
By Natalie Abts, MedStar Health
Xcertia — an mHealth app collaborative founded by the American Medical Association (AMA), American Heart Association (AHA), DHX Group, and Healthcare Information and Management Systems Society (HIMSS) — released on Feb. 13, 2019, its initial draft of a new set of guidelines promoting more thoughtful development of mobile health applications (mHealth apps).
Though the guidelines have been in some form of development since 2012, and a release of limited scope occurred in October 2018, the February release marks the first full set of guidelines that cover all five key topics areas critical to app development: Privacy, Security, Content, Operability, and Usability.
The guideline sections were developed by five separate working groups composed of industry experts across a variety of disciplines. Workgroup members represent academia, app developers, subject matter experts in the section topics, healthcare providers, and other industry stakeholders. An iterative development process was utilized to build upon existing guidelines drafts and to generate new content.
Importantly, these guidelines are intended for application to a variety of apps, covering everything from home-use data tracking and clinical decision support to apps serving primarily as a resource for medical information, as well as any other type of app operating in a healthcare space. Thus, the guidelines cover apps used by a wide range of clinical and lay (i.e., patient) users, for varied use cases, across a range of use environments.
The Xcertia Guidelines aim to achieve several goals across both the healthcare and mHealth app industries. Developers should utilize this consolidated set of industry standards as a resource to improve products and decrease time to market. The guidelines also function to reduce the burden on healthcare systems looking to procure clinically-based apps; if they know an app meets the Xcertia Guideline's performance requirements, they can be confident that they are implementing effective, well-designed apps into their care environments. Consumers, whether clinician or patient, also can be confident of the apps' ease of use, the accuracy of app information, and its confidentiality protection capability.
Each of the five sections includes a subset of individual guidelines that is broken down into a series of performance requirements (e.g., the Operability Guidelines have a "Connectivity" guideline composed of four individual performance requirements). Key topics from each guideline section are summarized below.
The Privacy Guidelines cover protection of user information, including protected health information. Key themes in this section include disclosure to the user regarding data collection and use, access to data that has been collected, and permission obtained from the user before data is shared. This section also discusses compliance with several important laws and regulations, including the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA), the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA), and the European Union General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).
This topic is likely to be of high importance in addressing concerns of patient users, who may be reluctant to utilize an app that involves storage and transmission of data related to their personal health conditions.
The Security section aims to ensure that apps are protected from threats and data remains uncompromised. Security is particularly critical for mHealth apps used in the clinical space, which may store data for many patients. The section highlights a robust risk evaluation process, as well as a variety of threat identification methods, including scanning and encryption. HIPAA compliance is again discussed here, as well response to and recovery from data breach incidents.
Ensuring that information is current and accurate is particularly important for mHealth apps — most critically, those providing clinical decision support, such as suggestions for medical treatments or interventions. The Content section emphasizes transparency regarding information sources, including providing access to data for evidence-based claims.
Any medical information presented in an app must be up-to-date, and if new data suggests that best practices be updated, any outdated content that could be medically dangerous should be removed. The Content Guidelines also touch on the use of advertising, as well as the importance of clear identification of advertised content, so users are not misled.
The Usability Guidelines emphasize the importance of designing for an app's specified users and specified use environments to promote efficient, correct operation that results in satisfying user experiences. This section covers high-level usability topics, such as visual design and navigation principles, but also delves into requirements for common user tasks, such as the onboarding process.
Design for the user is emphasized through performance requirements covering the important topic of accessibility. General recommendations for app evaluation through activities such as user research, heuristic evaluation, and user testing also are highlighted.
Operability includes discussion of correct app function through the install, load, and use processes. This differs from the Usability section in that the content is focused on the inclusion of specific functionality, rather than responses to user inputs. For example, onboarding is a topic covered in both the Usability and Operability Guidelines, but the discussion in the Operability section focuses more on technical requirements and correct app behavior.
Connectivity also is covered in several contexts, as are specific performance requirements for apps connecting to or serving as electronic health records (EHRs). Transparency of information, such as change history and medical device status, also are covered.
The Xcertia Guidelines fill an important industry gap by consolidating information from a variety of sources to provide a trustworthy reference for addressing the specific design, development, and evaluation needs of mHealth apps. By utilizing a set of guidelines that can be applied to both regulated and non-regulated products, mHealth stakeholders can benefit from standardized processes that result in improved design and better user experience.
The Xcertia Guidelines are available for a public comment period through May 15, 2019 at https://www.xcertia.org/the-guidelines/. Comments will be utilized to generate updates that will be implemented in the final version.
*The author serves as chair of the Usability Guidelines workgroup.

Last week, you could not have avoiding the news of an update to Chrome. That is because the update was considered to be a rather big one. Not to mention that it was hitting just about every platform imaginable. The update was bringing devices up to Chrome 42 and was reported to be landing on all stable platforms including desktop, the Chrome for Android app, as well as those running Chrome OS. The big points of the update to note was the inclusion of website push notifications and also the inclusion of Google Now cards on Chrome OS, while Chrome for Android saw the inclusion of the ability to more easily pin frequently visited websites to the homescreen.
Well, in spite of Chrome 42 just landing on most devices, this was only heading out to the stable channels and versions. That is because all the beta channels like the Chrome Beta for Android app and the dev channel on Chromebooks saw the update landing a few weeks back. As such, if you are running a Chromebook (or any Chrome OS device) then it looks like your next update is already beginning to land. It should also not be too much of a surprise that this one will bring your system up to Chrome 43, specifically version 43.0.2357.32
As to be expected and consistent with all updates, there will be a number of obligatory bug fixes and performance improvements. However, Google has also now sent out their blog announcement (source link below) detailing what else can be expected from the latest update. The highlights of the update include new autofill settings for credit cards in Google Wallet. In addition, the keyboards on Chrome OS are also seeing an update. The physical keyboard is improving its auto-correction ability while a new look Material Design UI is being added to the virtual keyboard. For those, who have thought about picking up the recently announced Chromebook Pixel, then it seems that device is also seeing an update land, which enables "OK Google" functionality from anywhere. The update is already in progress and therefore you may have already seen the update land already. However, if you have not, then don't worry as it will be landing soon. That is, as long as you are on the beta channel.

By Parisa Hafezi and Sam Wilkin
Iran said on Wednesday it would only accept a deal over its contested nuclear programme if world powers simultaneously lifted all sanctions imposed on it.
The comments by President Hassan Rouhani came the day after US President Barack Obama was forced to give Congress a say in any future accord – including the right of lawmakers to veto the lifting of sanctions imposed by the US
Bolstering the role of a highly assertive Congress injects an element of uncertainty into the crucial final stages of negotiations between major powers and Iran, which are aimed at curbing Tehran's nuclear ambitions in exchange for relief from sanctions.
"If there is no end to sanctions, there will not be an agreement," Rouhani said in a televised speech in the northern Iranian city of Rasht, echoing remarks made last week by Iran's most powerful authority, Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.
"The end of these negotiations and a signed deal must include a declaration of cancelling the oppressive sanctions on the great nation of Iran," said Rouhani, who is widely viewed as a pragmatist.
A tentative deal between Iran and the six world powers was reached in Switzerland on April 2, and aimed at clearing the way for a final settlement on June 30.
Discussions will resume on April 21. However, different interpretations have emerged over what was agreed in the framework, suggesting that nailing down a final agreement will be tough, even without the added complication of Congress.
Many Congressmen have been highly critical of the US-led negotiations, supporting Israel, which has said the framework proposal will not prevent Iran from developing atomic arms. Tehran says its nuclear programme is for peaceful purposes.
While Israel said it was pleased with the move by Congress , Rouhani said it was a domestic U.S. issue that should have no bearing on the negotiations between Iran, the United States, Germany, France, Britain, Russia and China.
"What the US Senate, Congress and others say is not our problem," Rouhani said. "We want mutual respect … We are in talks with the major powers and not with the Congress."
Looking to reassure his various negotiating partners, US Secretary of State John Kerry said on Wednesday he was confident Obama would be able to get Congress to approve the final deal.
"Looming large is the challenge of finishing the negotiation with Iran over the course of the next two and a half months," Kerry said after arriving in Germany for a meeting of Group of Seven foreign ministers.
"We are confident about our ability for the president to negotiate an agreement and to do so with the ability to make the world safer," he said.
Obama has invested enormous political capital throughout his presidency in securing an accord to ensure Iran does not develop a nuclear weapon, relying on tight sanctions that crippled Iran's economy and forced it to negotiate.
Some US lawmakers who had objected to the earlier bill, but agreed to the compromise, said the administration had assured them the bill would not interfere with the negotiations.
"The administration has assured me that (Tuesday's) vote will not impede negotiators' ability to do their jobs and work toward a final deal with Iran," said Democratic Senator Chris Murphy.
A combination of US and EU sanctions have choked off nearly 1.5 million barrels per day of Iranian exports since early 2012, reducing its oil exports by 60 percent to around 1 million barrels a day.
While Iran denies its nuclear programme has any military element, it has never welcomed intrusive inspections and has in the past kept some nuclear sites secret.
A delegation from the International Atomic Energy Agency, the United Nations' nuclear watchdog, arrived in Tehran on Wednesday for scheduled technical talks, Iran's semi-official Mehr news agency reported. Talks with the IAEA run parallel to the negotiations with world powers.

Yvonne Newbold is an absolute inspiration and a true champion for disabled children and their families. She is the Author of The SPECIAL PARENTS Handbook and a parent of three children all with Special Needs. She shares her highs, lows and techniques in this book.
Violent and Challenging Behaviour
A rarely discussed topic is that of children and young adults who have challenging and violent behaviour. Most often towards their mother and/or other care givers. It has been a bit of a taboo subject until recently. Parents feel shame that their child beats them or destroys their home. It isn't because their children are 'bad' or their parenting is poor. It is often because they find it so difficult to express themselves for a magnitude of reasons and it is most common in children with learning difficulties.
Yvonne appeared on the Victoria Derbyshire show on the BBC this week along with some fellow parents who's children have Violent & Challenging Behaviour VCB. She is working tirelessly to break the silence of this heartbreaking situation for so many families. Yvonne has set up a private Facebook support group and she is running a series of workshops on this topic.

If you have just moved into a new house, you will be feeling rather awkward and out of place. This is normal, because it is a sign that you still haven't had time to make your living space truly yours. A little can go a long way when adding personal elements, but you will certainly need to keep certain structural restrictions in mind. Every new house is going to feel unfamiliar and not quite yours until you start including personal touches. In addition to this, you can also make personalization a structural and fundamental part of your new home, especially if you know where to start and what exactly you need to do to make your dream home a reality. With these considerations in mind, here are some tips on how to make sure that your brand new living space is personalized to your preference.
Start with the layout
The layout of your home is the first and most integral step in ensuring a personalized living space; if this possibility is available for you, make every use of it. When considering the initial architectural and structural design choices, you have the option of consulting with custom home builders at Templestowe and incorporating personalized design elements to the layout. You can go as bold or as unusual as you like, and include features to your home that are sure to make a statement.
Add personalized touches to the décor
The décor of your home will offer one of the easiest ways for you to personalize your home; you can go for bold options such as painting your front door in an eye catching color. In addition to this, you can also upgrade various features around your home in order to give it a fresh look. Some of the elements that are ripe for an upgrade include light fixtures, faucets, locks, or even window treatments.
Add outdoor features
Another thing that you can do during the construction stages is to include a fun and dynamic outdoor feature. Not only will this add an element of functionality to your property, you can also change the look of your home with it. If the space considerations are worrying you, you have the option of consulting with professional renovation builders at Kew before you install elements such as a patio, a deck, or even an outhouse.
Display your interests
For maximum personalization, make sure that your interests are displayed prominently. For this, you can include large pieces of statement making wall art, or even artistic sculptures. In addition to this, you can transform well stocked bookcases into statement making pieces of décor, by installing them in a prominent location such as the living room.

Specifications of Julien Le Roy OTTOMAN / TURK MARKET Pocket Watch. Julien Le Roy, probably the most inventive clockmaker in eighteenth century France, was appointed clockmaker to Louis XV (17101774), an honor that allowed him a workshop in the Louvre.
The movement of the watch strikes hours and quarters on the back of the case instead of on a bell. This type of repeater, called a dumb repeater, allowed the user to tell the time unobtrusively by counting the vibrations of the case. The style of the case, with its beautiful opaque-enameled flowers that seem to float on an engraved gold ground, was fashionable among Parisian makers of watchcases and gold boxes about the middle of the eighteenth century. The watch is extremely rare to find and really big! The third case is silver and 1st & 2nd cases are a special material called tombac.
(chopper plated with Gold and mercury). The watch has Quarter repeater specification! Inner case is 51 mm.The second, third ones are respectively 62, and 72 mm! The watch is really big. The second case is covered by tortoise shell which is colored with gold and has very nice view. It's been kept so far in EXCELLENT condition. The dial is porcelain and has no hairlines or cracks It is in perfect condition. The third case is 0.900 silver and has very nice flower engravings on it. This last cases were done by the ottoman masters as per the requests of the owners in ottoman empire in order to protect the tortoise shells.
The movement belongs to this pocket watch and had stamped with 29353. The movement works flawless and keeps perfect timing. Even the arms are the originals and no changed! The watch has the repetition ability!!It strikes respectively the hours and quarters FLAWLESSLY! The watch will come with an original key and also a silver but gold plated enamel chain.

This refurbishment project in the heart of Marylebone was to increase the Grade A office accommodation to 17,500 square feet.
Experienced contractors, Virtus were appointed by Howard De Walden Estates to carry out the large scale conversion of the residential buildings into commercial space. The project to convert three Victorian buildings began with the enormous task of removing 600 tonnes of demolition waste which included the existing basement slab. The basement slab was replaced at a lower level to provide new high quality office space on the lower level floor. At the same time, a lift shaft was installed which meant installing a liftpit below the basement slab.
FIS worked alongside the architect and the contractors to design a full set of waterproofing details for the underside of the new lower concrete slab in the liftpit in the basement.
FIS proposed the use of Maxiprufe 2000 as a pre-applied Type A waterproofing membrane to be positioned beneath the slab. Hydroseal FX was also used to seal difficult details and old existing Victorian brickwork sections. The existing brickwork was injected too, to provide a retrospective chemical DPC to ensure there would be no rising damp in the masonry walls.
This was a challenging project with multiple interfaces with the existing structure. The refurbishment was a sympathetic process which meant the construction programme was a long one. Structural waterproofing design and detailing had to be responsive. FIS were on hand throughout the project and has to react to the structure that presented to them as the construction programme progressed.

Thanks for stopping by the "Chronicles of Kash". This is my first blog ever and first time trying my hand at writing a story (I've only ever written poetry before), so I hope you all enjoy.
I am a huge Skyrim fan, have logged hundreds of hours playing with several different characters, and still couldn't get enough. Then I happened to stumble upon "The Misadventures of Zander" one day and that was all she wrote! From his blog I found the amazing in depth story of Elspeth Aurilie, reading both books up to date. I was hooked on the idea of telling a Skyrim story my way, through my own experiences and pictures. But since I am not playing on a PC with all these tricked out mods and advanced camera controls, I didn't think it would be possible. That didn't stop me though! I fired up my Xbox, busted out the pen & pad, plus camera phone, and went at it old school style.
And in case you were wondering – I don't start with the Helgen Dragon scene, and I didn't arrive in Skyrim by boat near Dawnstar 🙂
This is the story of Kash – the average Nord with aspirations to master the art of Alchemy, just looking for a new life in Skyrim.

He will free you,

so you may gradually,
grow in his name.
He always has the answers,
and he always stays the same.
Face your fears. Never let your dreams go by. Feel your emotions for they never go aside. Don't try an hide them. You won't win even if you tried. No need to run away from it all because gods love is always on your side.

In Britain there is a general statutory time limit of 6 years after which one cannot make a claim, be it justified or not. But then in Britain cases are heard a lot sooner than in Spain, therefore in Spain, the time limit for civil cases is normally stated as 15 years from the day one makes the demand, beyond this it may not be acceptable.
Making a claim or demand of payment means officially advising the debtors that he owes the money claimed. This should be done in a way that can be used as evidence. A letter or documents relating to the claim is sent to the debtor via a Notary Public or by bureaux fax from a post office. This is a fax sent from your post office to the post office local to the debtor and delivered to him by hand; it has to be signed for. Either method is sufficient evidence to the effect that you have made formal demand of payment.
Once the claim is made, it is then up to the debtor to respond within the time limit that he was given with a payment or an offer to repay by instalments or a counteroffer. You then have 15 years to bring the matter into court.
It is always best to avoid unnecessary costs if a compromise can be reached. It is cheaper and quicker for both parties. But should the debtor fail to respond or co-operate, then there would be no alternative but to lodge a claim through the Court. It is best done by your lawyer. The alternative could be to contact an established debt collecting company, usually found in large cities like Madrid or Barcelona, and let them take the matter as far as they think it may be feasible. Either way what must be considered is the question of costs which are not usually granted to the claimant as a matter of course.
Using a Debt Collectors could be more efficient than using a lawyer as their presence is much more intimidating and can lead to registering the debtors name in the Black Book of Debtors with the result that the debtors history will be tarnished for sometime to come. Apparently it is very difficult to get ones name taken off that book and foreign credit agencies often consult it.
Then there is the case when one has actually been conned or been the victim of a fraud. This would have criminal connotations, therefore it may be worth considering placing a complaint (denuncia) with the police who will act in accordance to the gravity of the matter and take the matter to court. You should still have a lawyer at your side.
In the case where you are making a claim against a retailer for the supply of faulty goods under a guarantee or similar, make sure you read the guarantees conditions which could be limited to making the official demand for compensation within 6 or 12 months of the date of purchase. Once you have made your claim then of course the time limit is extended to the 15 years mentioned above.
Please note that the time for making the original formal claim can vary in different circumstances and can be different between an insurance claim and a claim against an airline or a builder. Claim being the formal demand for compensation as mentioned above.
Please remember that this information is given as general guidance only and you should always contact your lawyer in respect of your own personal circumstances.

A framing part is made of branches of wood as to show that these scenes were seen between branches of the Tree. These are drawn in waterproof ink and painted with acrylic gouache over watercolor paper. There are 2 layers of watercolor paper and layer of canvas pad glued together with acrylic meium and are protected with coatings of liquitex varnishes. Seven pieces were made of this series. Unfortunately photos are not good so only 3 are shown here.

Electronic Sounders
Safety should always be top priority. When it comes to people's safety, it's important to be vigilant and look out for different tools and devices. There's nothing like a bright flashing light or loud noise to grab every inhabitant's attention in a building during an emergency. Devices like conventional electronic sounders or fire alarm systems will do just that.
These powerful devices are also ideal for use in a whole variety of different applications, such as all types of rented accommodation, offices, schools, small shops, factories, and many and more.
Where Are They Used?
In order to effectively grab people's attention during an emergency like a fire, robbery, or any crime, these alarms depend or rely on an Electronic Sounder or a bell. In this way, the sounder makes a loud noise when it is triggered, either automatically, or manually. As well as being used for evacuation purposes, Electronic Sounders are also commonly used in large buildings or businesses as an indicator, for example; to inform employees of a specific time – break time, lunch time, or end of day. Due to the versatility of these products, they are also used regularly for fault monitoring purposes, to alert when there is a problem on a production line.
Sounders can vary in terms of warning signals, sound dispersion patterns, and tones. These particular Electronic Sounders are also available as a combined unit incorporating LEDs also, for use in
applications where both light and sound are required, for maximum impact.
Control Panel: The brains of the operation
When used in conjunction with an alarm system, the component that acts as a hub is the control panel. Every unit incorporated in to the system will use the panel as a medium of communication. Using the correct sensors, an automatic signal can trigger the Electronic Sounder to sound.
The control panel hub also allows the engineers and users to monitor the system to check for faults or activation.
What's Available?
We offer a choice of 3 different sounders, varying in size and colour.
All are IP65 rated, and have 64 tone combinations, and a maximum output of 114dB.
Designed to complement the Series C, Series E and Series T warning beacons, the 64 tone combinations are selected using an internal DIP-switch array.
More information on our range of Electronic Sounders can be seen here: http://beaconlamps.com/products/audible-warning-signals/electronic-sounders/
Or alternatively, if a combined unit incorporating light and sound is more suited to your needs, view our range here: http://beaconlamps.com/products/audible-warning-signals/sounder-beacons/

Current Articles
by Marc Scribner Competitive Enterprise Institute Blog, www.OpenMarket.org
Rail transit advocates in Honolulu, Hawaii, have seen better days. Significant opposition is threatening the future of the proposed 20-mile, $5.5 billion elevated rail transit corridor. The project, championed by Hawaii Democrats, is the dream of long-time Senator Dan Inouye. Most view it as little more than an expensive monument to the 87-year-old Inouye, who has represented Hawaii in the U.S. Senate for nearly 50 years and is something of a state institution.
Critics of the multi-billion dollar elevated rail project have noted that it would destroy the views of Honolulu's famous waterfront, ruin some of Oahu's best farmland, cost far more than service that could be delivered by bus rapid transit, fail to provide access to major population centers, and fail to address congestion issues. According to the recent "2011 Urban Mobility Report" [PDF] from the Texas Transportation Institute, traffic congestion costs the Honolulu area $287 million per year — putting it at number six among medium-sized metro areas with the most costly congestion problems. The city has also misled the public on supposed environmental benefits of the project, knowing full well that energy intensity (Btu per passenger-mile) is generally greater for heavy rail transit than for personal automobiles (see Table 2.13 and Figure 2.3 of the Transportation Energy Data Book [PDF]). This recent editorial provides some more background details.
However, the Inouye Legacy Train to Nowhere has continued to move forward, despite the valid criticisms. But the city may have moved too fast. So fast that it may have broken the law. Honolulu residents concerned with a proposed rail transit line filed a lawsuit against the Federal Transit Administration (FTA) and the city in May [PDF]. The plaintiffs allege that the city, in an effort to ram through the project, had failed to comply with the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) and other laws and regulations.
It appears likely that Honolulu and FTA failed to consider reasonable alternatives and accurately assess the alternatives' environmental consequences in the Final Environmental Impact Statement, as required under NEPA. Now the FTA and city are arguing that a section of the lawsuit and claims made by some plaintiffs should be dismissed because the issue wasn't raised and some of the plaintiffs didn't participate in the initial administrative process [PDF].
Earlier this week, the plaintiffs countered these allegations [PDF]. They argued that the FTA/Honolulu motion failed to address any of their arguments contained in the initial complaint, and instead relied upon outside evidence beyond the scope of the proceeding. As they noted, this was clearly an attempt by the defendants to slow down the proceeding because the city and FTA know that their defense is quite weak.
It will be interesting to see how the court rules, as the case before it focuses on several controversial aspects common to rail transit projects around the country. But most of the time, the opposition isn't organized enough to challenge the planners. Hopefully, sanity will prevail. We at OpenMarket wish the plaintiffs the best of luck!

On 17th December 1973 the Bank announced arrangements for improving their control over the money supply and bank lending, under which the banks and finance houses have agreed individually to place non-interest bearing supplementary deposits with the Bank if the interest-bearing eligible liabilities of the institutions concerned grow faster than a specified rate. The rate specified for the first six months is 8%, and that for the subsequent period is to be announced no later than the end of April. No deposit is required to be lodged until the scheme has run for six months. Thereafter, while the arrangements remain activated, the amount to be lodged will be calculated by reference to a three months' moving average of the growth of interest-bearing eligible liabilities above their average at the make-up dates of October, November and December 1973. The scale of supplementary deposits to be made will rise with the excess of the three months' average over the allowable rate of growth: for an excess of 1 % or less the rate will be 5% of the excess, for more than 1% up to 3% it will be 25%, and thereafter 50% (the maximum under the scheme). The arrangements apply to interest-bearing eligible liabilities only, and so exclude such non-interest-bearing liabilities as most current accounts. The arrangements can be suspended by the Bank when that seems appropriate, but are intended to be permanently at hand.

4 Easy ways to make money online
There are many sources available to make money online but we can't go for anyone due to the number of challenges involved. Some sources need huge investment whereas other need specific skills so it is really important to first analyze which would be the perfect source of income. In some cases, you need both investment and specialized skills like cryptocurrency, forex or any other type of trading.
Here we are going to discuss some of the sources which do not require any huge investment and can be started on a small scale. And you also don't need to possess any specialized skills.
- Blogging:-
For blogging, you don't need any huge investment and most of the work you can do for yourself. Just choose the niche in which you are interested and buy a domain and hosting so that you can host your website. And starting cost could be somewhere $100 to $200. Along with this, you need to learn about basic SEO (search engine optimization). And this is completely free just search on YouTube you will tons of video which would help you learn about basic SEO. Once you have a good number of visitors you can apply for Google adsense which would pay you for the visitors. There are many others ways of making money with your blog you can go for affiliate marketing, CPA, and sponsored post.
- Surveys & Sweepstakes
Surveys are not sources which can provide you a regular earning but can make some extra income along with your other regular earning source. But it is also one of the best sources for people who are engaged in online income. There are many websites available who are offering money in exchange for surveys. These surveys are conducted by big brands who pay money for the people opinion. Some of the people are making good money as they are working for a long time and has a good number of referrals.
You can also go for Sweepstakes which are associated with household products such as restaurants, retail outlets, and coffee shops. The only drawback is that these are based on a winner so you won't get anything until you win. But the good thing about is that they are related to your daily routine works. Which means you don't have to put any additional efforts and time for this. So whenever you are visiting subway or wendy you can simply enter the sweepstakes by participating in their surveys. tellsubway.com and talktowendys
- Write and publish Kindle book
This is also one of the low investment income sources. You can simply start at no cost if you can write well. Just make your own Kindle books and publish them on Amazon. And through this listing, you can start your own passive income for many upcoming years. These books can be sold between $1.99 to $6.99 and you will make 70% on each book.
- Gigs on Fiverr
This is also one of the sources which do not require any investment as it is skill based. If you are good at anything such as writing, designing, translating, social media posting, video making and many other different types of work. The gigs start at $5 and if you are good at your work you will get enough work to start your monthly income. But you need to make sure Fiverr has its own policy and guidelines related the quality and time delivery. If your services are below their benchmark they will remove your account.
