The first sports energy bar appeared on the shelves of cycling and running shops in 1983. In the 26 years since that lone high-performance bar made its debut, an almost-unimaginable variety of choices have sprouted at convenience stores and supermarkets.
There are high-carb bars, protein bars, brain-boosting bars, meal-replacement bars, diet bars and women-only bars, each of which claims to make you better, faster, stronger or in some way enhance your life.
But before you buy, be sure to read the label. An energy bar can contain as much sugar and fat as a candy bar. There are several things to consider when choosing the best energy bar.
The boost in stamina and endurance you get from an energy bar comes from the 200 to 300 calories it provides. Eating before exercise and during endurance training is important to optimize performance. But keep in mind that fig bars, graham crackers and bananas can be just as effective – at a much lower cost.
Energy bars are a convenient way to get calories and carbs in a snack, but they do not provide a complete range of nutrients. You may be sacrificing the fiber, carotenoids and other health-protective phytochemicals found in fruits, vegetables and whole grains.
For a quick snack, you might be better off eating an apple or a banana, a whole-wheat bagel with a slice of melted cheese, or a cup of yogurt sprinkled with high-fiber cereal. If you opt for an energy bar instead of a meal, be sure to eat at least one real food along with it.
Because energy bars are highly fortified, they can cause gastrointestinal problems. Athletes test them out during training before using them in competition. Be sure to do the same thing until you learn what works for you and what does not.
If you're consuming multiple bars a day or eating other fortified foods along with them, you may be overdosing on certain nutrients. Too many vitamins and minerals can be as unhealthy as not getting enough.
In independent laboratory tests, some bars did not stand up to the claims listed on the label. Let the buyer beware!
Instead of hopping from bar to bar, use these general guidelines to help you find the one that works for you:
We've sampled them all and have found these to be some of the best energy bars:
Remember that added flavorings can change the nutrient content, so always check out the label before indulging.
An athlete's diet plays an important role in performance. Start with these basic steps to help you get the most out of your training.
As Fall sports are upon us, planning pre-game meals to optimize performance takes center stage. Read tips for pre-game meals.
If you're serious about improving your performance, make eating frequently through the day part of your sports nutrition plan.

Because some folks have asked, I thought I'd mention the ranking button over there on the side of this page and why it could become important to this site.
When you click the button you are taken to the Top Web Comics site. This is a comics ranking site that many people use to find new web comics to read, or even as a base page to hit all their favorites. (If they don't know how bookmarks work…) Anyway, the comics are ranked according to how many votes they get in a month, and the top 100 comics hit the site's front page… which is really all most people ever look at anyway.
As of this writing, I am number 342, which puts me on page four and in relative obscurity. However, should I ever make it under 100, more people will start seeing us, hits will go up, ad revenue will rise, I will get invited to do podcasts and go to conventions, and I will finally be able to publish my books with Diamond Distributors, making the past three and a half years of doing this much less of a financial sink than it has been thus far. (I won't say "worthwhile" because it's already been that. I love doing this comic, and I especially love getting to chat with so many of you every day.)
For your part, voting with that little rank button takes between 10 and 15 seconds and is completely free… they don't even collect any personal info beyond your IP to make sure folks don't spam the votes. You can do it every day and it while it's a tiny investment of time on your part, it makes a HUGE difference to me. So why not spread the love?

Transparency in Relationships
Hello friends,
Can you define the term called "Transparency"?. It's easy to define as no barriers between you and reality. In school days we learnt about the glass being a transparent object which allows light to pass through it. Today I am going take you to a level where transparency has become one of the most important and difficult tasks to sustain.
We are well versed of the situation where people say the competition was not transparent, they did partiality etc, During job appraisal, the boss didn't give a transparent decision etc. When we apply this term to our professional life, then we suffer in many situations on the hands of superior people than us as discussed in the above situations. We get hurt but then we bounce back easily.
Let's talk about transparency in relations? Ask yourself is your relation transparent? Do you give your partner 100% of what you can? Do the same reflects from your partner? The answer is sadly a big "No"(99.99%). Let us know how it goes.
In a relationship, having ups and downs is quite normal and after getting rid of problems that bond grows. There are many situations you have fights on many topics and you solve it but some topics kill you for a lifetime. Do you trust your partner? Think before saying "yes". Let us assume you say yes, now go in past and try to collect the memories when your partner lied several times, or kept u aloof of many things and then later you got to know reality.. Now try to say "yes" …You won't. Why this happens….Let's get this clear.
You might trust your partner a lot but when your trust suffers then its almost over. Once broken thread cannot be mend and if mended then it will always carry knots. After suffering, Love continues to be showered on your partner and relation still survives but there is always a Cold War going inside you.. Your brain and heart fights, your hearts asks you to trust your partner and your brain doesn't give this permission by manipulation past things. So you always have that "EYES OF DOUBT" on your partner. But this is not so serious until your partner stays loyal to you. But then once damage done takes long to recover.
Hey, don't forget to read a fantastic collection of Poems, Shayaries, Quotes and Blogs on Love, Social, Emotions, Technology, Fashion, Creativity and many more.
Now you have excuses to lie at times. You lie to avoid hurting the partner's feelings. Your partner might be too sensitive so you hide things. Sometimes you hide the worst part of your nature but you forget that one or other day your partner will face it. What will your HIDE HABIT reward you at that time?. Some have an excuse of privacy. The answer to this is you have your own personal space which everyone has and you need to be left alone so why you need to console this with a LIE? Accept it and explain it.
Let me Conclude
Always remember in any situation, whether its hell or heaven, you should never lie or hide anything from your partner and also ask the same from former. Life is more than making out love with your partner. Your soul cannot be satisfied with physical pleasure. Your soul needs honest feelings. Be HONEST. For some people building trust takes less time but some take years but remember never break it. Once broken then you will never ever be able to build it again. There are some things in nature which don't have a cure and that is "BROKEN HEART AND LOST TRUST". Never expect transparency from your partner if you aren't transparent.

Whether it's a powerful lead magnet such as a free report or whitepaper, or a Kindle book that you sell on kindle or Amazon digital books are still an awesome way to attract traffic and sales for almost any type of business.
Why E-Books?
Many people around the world are neither writers nor geniuses when it comes to texts, but still, they earn money writing eBooks. Something extraordinary about eBooks is that as soon as you finish it, they cost nothing to produce.
There is, therefore, no cost of sales, and the advancement of the product is often between 90 – 100%. So there are excellent opportunities to make money online with eBooks, and that's why I always recommend you to try this method.
To earn money online from an eBook, it`s often necessary to find a topic to write about which gives great value to the reader. The person who buys the book must, therefore, become wiser in an area when they have finished reading the book whether its only for information or to find a solution to a problem.
To start earning money on an ebook, it's a good idea to find a topic that you are interested in, and by doing so, you automatically become passionate about the book. By doing this, you give the reader a significantly better experience.
A good starting point for an ebook may be to try to solve a problem through the book. So, if there's something that you're wondering about, or have a question that you want to answer, try researching the topic and try to solve the problem yourself.
Once you solve the problem, you can write an ebook that finds a solution to it. If you are writing a book that you are satisfied with, you can use the book to attract traffic, as a free sign-up-gift or maybe even try to sell it online.
There`re many platforms where you can sell an eBook, as earlier mentioned sites like Kindle and Amazon is a place to do so.
Use affiliates
But looking at the broader picture and imagine you create an eBook either solving a problem, sharing a knowledge or maybe an instruction manual and as mentioned in "8 Ways To Profit With Clickbank" you sign up as a Clickbank vendor.
In this example let`s say that you charge $10 per eBook and you offer affiliates 30% commission. Then you have affiliates promoting your eBook without having to do anything more, and considering distribution is free on a digital books you have no costs only profits.
In this case, the 30% commission may sound a lot, but you have to remember that you get exposure to potential costumers you wouldn't otherwise get unless you launch a massive marketing campaign, which would cost huge sums of money, and almost never return the investment.
So, in conclusion to the example above, even if the commission was set to 90% it`s still 10% profit you wouldn't get in any other way.
The downside
But there's just one problem with eBooks, creating them can cause all kinds of headaches. Writing, formatting, designing… it can take days or even weeks to create an eBook, plus a steep learning curve and a handful of expensive tools you'll need to master… before you've even hit publish!
This is why I would like to share and promote a new powerful tool on the market that promises to change all that. It's called Sqribble.
What is Sqribble?
Sqribble is a cloud-based tool that allows you to create eBooks, reports, whitepapers, manuals, etc. in seconds. It uses ready-made templates and drag n' drop design features that make self-publishing your eBooks a breeze.
How does it work?
When you log into Sqribble, you'll see a bunch of eBook templates to choose from. These are all based on different categories, so you'll need to find one that matches your market/topic/niche.
Once you've selected the template you want to use, you simply click "view" to see how your eBook will look.
In this view screen, you can see how the book will be laid out and get a feel for the style. If you don't like it, you can always go back and choose another template. There are 50 templates to choose from, and you can also customize the templates in any kind of way.
All the layouts and designs are very beautiful and look like professional publications.
Next, you'll be asked where you want to source your content for the book. You can choose:
- Grab from a URL
- Start from scratch
- Copy and paste manually
- Upload Word File
- Start from Article Collection
Let's take a closer look at these options.
Grab from a URL
This allows you to insert any URL you want, and Sqribble will automatically pull the content from that page and insert it into your book. It strips the HTML code and only inserts the text from the page.
This is my favorite method because it saves a ton of time and allows you to use expert content (with credits) so you can target topics and niches you're not an expert in!
Start from scratch
As it sounds, this option allows you to enter your content like you'd enter it into a Word document. You just type straight into the page.
Copy and paste manually
This allows you to copy content from anywhere you want, and paste into the book, where the book will format and lay it out for you professionally.
Upload Word File
You can get Sqribble to pull your content straight from a Word document, stripping out any code or weird formatting.
Start from Article Collection
Here you can extract content from Sqribble's huge library of private label articles which you can use for free, without crediting authors or linking to the source. It's another great way to fill your book with content, for free quickly!
Finally, you'll move to an editing screen there you can resize text, move content around, edit text directly, add media, links, lists, call to action areas, new pages, and a whole bunch of other options for customizing the look and feel of individual pages or the entire book.
You can even add new pages that use a totally different layout to the rest of your content, giving you a huge amount of flexibility and endless options for your content.
While editing, another thing I really liked was the Themes option. With a single click, you can instantly change the color theme and font style of your entire book. It's like giving your book a new "skin" and it's just one more feature that sets Sqribble apart from the other tools out there.
Finally, when you're ready to publish, you hit the little "Generate eBook" button in the top right corner of the screen and voila, your book is now ready!
You can either open the book in a browser to preview it quickly or save as PDF.
Who would benefit from Sqribble?
If you're already creating lead magnets or eBooks for sale, then I have no doubt that Sqribble is going to save you hours of work and tons of money on freelancers (if you outsource the design or writing side of it.)
For that reason alone, I genuinely believe that Sqribble is well worth the investment and ideally suited for most small to medium size businesses, especially self-publishers and info marketers.
Sqribble is most suited for freelancers, independent internet marketers, small marketing agencies and small business owners who want to create lead magnets, publish Kindle books, create and sell eBooks, or publish whitepapers.
If you're also looking to create an additional income you'll be pleased to know that also included is a commercial agency license to use Sqribble for client work, offering eBook creation services, with the ability to create unlimited eBooks which you can sell and keep all the profits!
They also give you a ready built agency website with pre-filled portfolio that you can upload to any domain for instant authority so that you can show it off to any new potential clients to get work. (Professional websites like this would cost you at least $250 alone, so it's excellent value.)
Also included is an in-built "Client feedback tool" to collaborate with clients on eBook projects more easily; this is an amazing feature.
To get a more comprehensive view of Sqribble`s features watch the demo and review video below.
What does it cost?
Normally $197, but the current price is a one-time $67.
It also comes with a 30-day satisfaction guaranteed.
Furthermore, there is several "fast action" bonuses included for the time being which you can read more about here
Besides that they have daily discounts such as todays $20.01 off the price with the promo-code "WONKA"
Any upsells?
Yes, there are currently four upsells. You don't need them to use Sqribble, but they might come in handy depending on your situation and usage.
Here's what they are:
Upsell 1 – Sqribble professional.
Unlock 150 more professional eBook templates, graphics and even more ready-made content for all kinds of niches. Great for those that want more variety, content and heavy users.
Upsell 2 – Sqribble Prime.
Get 15 premium "limited edition" new eBook templates added to your Sqribble dashboard every month. This will increase your library over time, and make you stand out from other users. It works out to less than two bucks for a template! (Much cheaper than stock sites.) Great for moderate users.
Upsell 3 – Sqribble Fantasia 3D.
This includes 2-in-1 features.
1.) Unlocks a 3D cover creation tool inside your dashboard, allowing you to turn "flat" covers into lifelike, 3d covers. Great for getting more attention and making your books look and feel more "real." People do judge a book by its cover, so something to keep in mind.
2.) Create "Flipbooks" that turn your eBooks into interactive and animated pages that turn like in real life. They can be linked to from anywhere online, as well as embedded on web pages with a single piece of code. This is really cool.
Upsell 4 – Auto Job Finder software.
If you're going to be using Sqribble to create eBooks as a service to get paid, then Auto Job Finder is something that you need. It will automatically find you related jobs across various freelance websites and notify you so that you can fulfill them. A huge time saver and potential money earner.
- Easy to use
- Glitch free
- Unlimited use (one-time payment)
- Tons of excellent eBook templates
- Professional page layouts
- Automatic content
- Free commercial agency license + business website included!
- 3D cover creator (available through upsells)
- Flipbook creator (available through upsells)
- Some of my favorite features are locked behind upsells (3D covers and Flipbook feature)
- When inserting content from a URL, you need to cite the URL source and/or credit the original author of the material, if it's not your own (this isn't really Sqribble's fault it's just the law!)
There's no doubt, Sqribble is a powerful eBook creation tool. Unlike other tools, it's packed with everything you need to start cranking out professional-looking books, reports, whitepapers, manuals and more in minutes and even seconds.
With automatic content, drag n' drop editing, plus a host of templates and designs ready to customize, you'd struggle to find a more seamless eBook publishing tool than this.
Being cloud-based is a big bonus too. No need to download any software that clogs up your computer. Whether you're casually publishing books or you're constantly creating lead gen reports for yourself or clients, Sqribble can and will save you hours of hassle and potentially thousands of dollars in freelance fees over the coming months and years.
For that reason alone, it gets my approval, especially when considering the prize.

(Traffic Monsoon is an 'Advertising' based business and all of the members who have kindly signed the petition in the last few days fully understand that.)
Original post:
Traffic Monsoon members,
This is a formal petition to save Traffic Monsoon http://trafficmonsoon.com as a rightful advertising company from the law suit against Charles Scoville and the business from the (SEC) Security Exchange Commission starting on 27th July 2016.
The SEC claims that Traffic Monsoon is a pure ponzi based site and have continued to contact members of our business for the passed 6-12 months asking for their experience with the advertising website and company that now has offices located and joined with JP Morgan as a fully registered company in The USA. In the words of one of our most humble members of Traffic Monsoon:
'' The SEC does this to all businesses that grow where both huge amounts of money, bank transfers and tax is called in to concern. They will continue to hold, invest and use funds to their own advantage, hoping to win a case where without support of both the members of Traffic Monsoon and legal help will result in a very bad outcome ''
-David Miller, Traffic Monsoon member and Lawyer with experience of over 18 years in court cases filed by the SEC.
The Security Exchange Commission's intentions may well be to help members and we in no way shape or form are denying their intentions, however the members of Traffic Monsoon have a right to voice their opinion about the business and this will be used in the court case FOR THE MEMBERS.
If you are reading this petition then you agree to sign THIS PETITION recognising TRAFFIC MONSSON as an ADVERTISING BASED PLATFORM and you 'The reader' fully accept that Traffic Monsoon offers a percent of sales that can change as any moments notice and is in NO WAY SHAPE OR FORM A PONZI SCHEME.
If you fully agree to this STATEMENT above, sign the petition and state WHY you have signed in favor of Traffic Monsoon.
The message from Charles Scoville after The SEC issued the court order and froze Traffic Monsoon's funds, shortly after speaking with Charles about a possible agreement the Security Exchange Commission took down the Traffic Monsoon website.
'' The SEC filed a lawsuit. We'll stand up against their claims in a court of law. Whatever is going on we'll get to the bottom of it.
There's no promised "returns" as I have always said, and the website and my videos doesn't say anything of the sort.. I've never guaranteed 10% returns.. only that as we sell ad service people who click ads in the traffic exchange can qualify to share in revenues up to a maximum of $55 .. without any time frame affixed whatsoever.
People had been circulating fake checks using bank account and routing number info provided online.. I moved the funds out from the business account into my personal account to avoid those from clearing, also-- I intended to send those funds to payza as the note on that transfer indicates. I just couldn't make that large of a transfer to pay people what they had earned until I was able to go into a chase branch. I didn't pay myself that money. I was positioning that money to be sent to payza, but I wasn't given a chance to do that because I hadn't been able to go into a chase branch since I was out of the country.
I was definitely sharing profit margins with people as I have outlined. No investment is offered on traffic monsoon as it clearly states. No promise of returns -- only promise of ad service, with an explanation that people can click through ads and qualify to share in the revenues, which couldn't possibly be guaranteed.
I was just about to fly to Utah to make that transfer and surprise everyone with an early release to some of the positions and balances. ''
Thank you for the taking the time to read and potentially sign this petition for Traffic Monsoon, I'd like to thank Charles, David, William, Edward and all those who came together to create this petition and we appreciate all members patience and also the support that Charles has had the last week, he is very blessed to have so much support and he more than anyone is very pleased to have you here on this petition with us.

3. Culture and context matter, in complicated ways. Some gender differences have decreased over time as women have achieved greater equality, showing that these differences are responsive to changes in culture and environment. But the cross-national findings sometimes show "paradoxical" effects: progress toward gender equality in rights and opportunities sometimes leads to larger gender differences in some traits and career choices. Nonetheless, it seems that actions taken today by parents, teachers, politicians, and designers of tech products may increase the likelihood that girls will grow up to pursue careers in tech, and this is true whether or not biology plays a role in producing any particular population difference."

BRENTWOOD, Tenn. --- Following a strong opening performance to the outdoor season, Tennessee State men's track and field's Kareem Nicholas (Atlanta, Ga.) earned adidas Ohio Valley Conference Field Athlete of the Week while Quamel Prince (Nashville, Tenn.) took home adidas OVC Co-Track Athlete of the Week.
Nicholas, a senior from Atlanta, Ga., won the long jump at the Weems Baskin Invitational with a distance of 7.66m (25'1.75"). It is the best distance by an OVC student-athlete this season and is good for seventh in the nation. Nicholas also earned second place in the triple jump with a league-best mark of 15.18m (49'9.75") – the 25th best distance in Division I this season.
Prince secured second in the 800m at the Weems Baskin Invitational after clocking in at 1:48.65. It is the top time in the OVC and fifth in the nation. As a member of the 4x400m relay team, Prince helped the Flying Tigers place ninth with an OVC-best time of 3:18.84.
The next action for the Flying Tigers is the UNF Invite on April 8 in Jacksonville, Fla.

This video takes viewers high into the Rocky Mountain snowpack, where researchers dig snow pits to explore the source of Colorado's water supply. Highlights the importance of snowpack on the supply of fresh water available in western and southwestern states. Snowmelt dynamics are discussed, including the impact of a warming climate.
The CLEAN collection is hand-picked and rigorously reviewed for scientific accuracy and classroom effectiveness. Read what our review team had to say about this resource below or learn more about how CLEAN reviews teaching materials
Although focused on Colorado, the video is a good resource for teaching about the effects of global warming on US citizens. This video would serve best as a prompt to begin a lesson or unit on the water cycle and/or local water supplies if living in a region supplied by snow melt.
Video shows scientists measuring snowpack in Colorado mountains and discusses the importance of snowpack to water storage and water supply to lower elevations. A smaller snowpack means less water storage and less water available.
Comments from expert scientist: The video presents researchers working in the field and explains how the scientific knowledge originates from this work. The underground lysimeter installation is a great example of this. The connection and explanation between snowmelt and the subsurface flow (how water actually gets into the stream) is weak. The conclusion that the climate-driven transition from snow to rain, causing increased evapotranspiration, is not supported by anything presented in this video.
Shows scientists (both male and female) at work in the high mountains. Although the resource is light on science content, it illustrates the practice of science, which ties in nicely to NGSS.
Good-quality video

This is it my dearest chamos.Wow.
I didn't realize how much I would love it here in Venezuela. I didn't realize a country, a people, a place could become so dear to me. But Mérida, Venezuela has become home. I have learned so much about the culture here, how it is so different than the culture in the US. But that doesn't make it worse or better- just different. I've learned to accept different cultures and different ways of life. I've also learned the struggles that people here have to live with. I didn't realize how much their struggles would affect me. Learning that it's almost impossible to find simple things like toothpaste, toilet paper or milk because the country can't provide it. And then seeing how the government blatantly (what does this mean?) ignores the rights of their people and their constitution.
The most impactful event that happened here was when Capriles lost to the now "President" Maduro. To see the looks on my families face. They were so hopeful that Capriles would win and bring a change to their country that is so desperately needed. But when they found out he lost, they lost so much hope. But then to look into my brother Andres' eyes, and see how willing he is to fight for his country and his rights. How he told me with so much passion how he never wants to leave, even if it gets worse here. And then for me to think back to my home in the US and how easy it is for me to live there. How I can find 20 different kinds of toothpaste at any time and how my state is known for the amount of milk we have! My life hasn't been perfect by any means and I've had to work very hard to get here. But this semester has made me so thankful for all I have. Thankful that knowing that when I vote, my vote counts. Thankful that I can voice my opinion and my government won't threaten or hurt me. But I know I can't just stay the same. Because before I got here, I knew the rest of the world didn't live in as good of circumstances as me, but I didn't really understand what it's like to have to live there. And even now, it's easy because I'm leaving! But I know that I have to tell people about my experiences and I have to tell people of what it was like and how blessed we are in the US.
This trip has really changed my opinion of many immigrants and people who want to come to the US. I've heard so many people here who dream of coming to the US. And it's so different than what we here in the US. They just want to come to have a better life and have a chance to work. Because of this, I'm even more excited for my future. You all know that I'm getting my majors in Elementary Education and Spanish and minors in Earth Space Science and Teaching English as a Second Language. How perfect it will be to teach bilingual schools, many of which have immigrant families! I'm so excited to invest in this growing population in the US and hopefully be a help to those families.
This trip has totally been worth it, but I have worked so hard to get here. I truthfully have spent so much money, time and effort on getting here. And it's tough when I'm here with students, many of whom haven't spent a dime on getting here and I had to take loans out to get here. But don't be discouraged when you look around you and doesn't seem fair. Sometimes you just have to work a little harder to do the same things. But it's for a reason. I know that me having to pay for this all on my own has made me think more about spending money. It's a joke here that I'm the cheapest one, because I don't want to waste my money. But I've learned how to balance, how to spend money on things that are worth it and learn how to say "no" to others. I also, have learned what it means to work hard for what you want. Even if I had the chance, I know I wouldn't change my circumstance.
I have loved telling you all about my trip and I hope you have been inspired to explore and learn about new cultures. I hope you realize how amazing another culture can be, even if it's different from our own. Lastly, I hope you realize that you can accomplish your goals, like studying abroad, and sometimes to accomplish them it takes hard work but also the willingness to ask for help and accept it, like accepting the Gilman!
Si se puede!

The use of personal computer (PC) is an integral part of our daily lives, no matter whether one is a business man or a working professional or a student. We use computers in our homes and offices to perform a wide range of tasks. Considering the technologically advanced era we are living in, the performance of our PCs is of utmost importance to achieve what we aspire for. The smooth functioning of computers can guarantee better productivity and performance of an individual as well as of business organizations.
In case of business organizations, the performance of computers has a direct effect on a firms' capability as it relates to revenue generation and profit maximization. People as well as business firms rely on their computers to perform all the assigned tasks in the most efficient way, while paying much less attention to the steps that must be taken to make sure that the performance of computer is un-effected.
The performance of personal computers is often hampered due to varied reasons, which may include virus attacks, excessive use, playing games and random internet browsing among many other things. More often than not, the slow and sluggish PCs are major cause of concerns for all of us.
You might have been irritated when your PCs do not perform the way it is supposed to, and that must have led you to ponder upon the best possible way to deal with the issue at minimum cost. The best free PC optimizer can be the only rescuer as it facilitates the overhaul of computers while securing the stored data, which are significant and often confidential.
The best free PC optimizer follows a very comprehensive approach to improve the performance of computer, as it does not only guarantee smooth functioning of PC, but also provides the security from malwares and virus. To ensure better performance and higher reliability of the computers, the best free PC optimizer scans all the software and stored data of computers, and identifies all the files and folders that can be potential threats to the security and performance of personal computers.
It can help in detecting and eliminating the corrupt or damaged files stored in the data base of computers, which can make the personal computers vulnerable. It further helps in analyzing the threats to computers which might lead to system crash. All the erratic behavior of computers can be resolved using the free PC optimizer as it scans all the soft-wares and data-base of computers.
The PC optimizer is an inevitable tool to resolve all the issues regarding PCs' performance and functionality. Most of the PC optimizers are available free for trials. It is easy to download, and one can learn about the product and its features before purchasing the whole package. The free trial version may help you in deciding which is the best free PC optimizers for your computers to ensure trouble free use of computers.
You might have seen plenty of ads regarding the best free PC optimizers which claim to enhance the performance of personal computers along with assuring the security of confidential information. Those ads can often be misleading, as most of those ads do not give discrete information regarding the time-span of the optimizer's free trial. Most of those optimizers are usually free only for only certain period of time, and can often be expensive once the free trial version expires.
The free versions of those PC optimizers are operational on nearly every operating system; however, some of them have hidden spyware or adware, which can have direct undesirable impact on the performance of personal computers. It can make the problems more intense and induce some of the new sluggishness in computers, and it can often result into abrupt shut downs or loss of data.
Therefore, it is highly imperative for all the users to go through a detailed analysis, assessment and evaluation of the best free PC optimizer before making the decision concerning which one would be the best suited for his/her computer(s). While selecting the best free PC optimizer, one must also consider the following factors:
In-Built Anti-Virus System
An in-built anti-virus system helps in detecting all the virus attacks on the computers, which in turn can result into data security and better performance of computers. Lack of in-built anti-virus system can increase the risk of data loss or theft.
User-Friendly Interface
No optimizers can be useful to users if it is not user friendly! The procedure to scan the computer must only be a click away for the users so that they can have hassle free experience. If there are complexities associated with the process of installing the free PC optimizer, it may cause confusion.
Backup Functionality
The backup functionality of the PC optimizers enables the retrieval of important documents; therefore, this feature of PC optimizer cannot be ignored.
As mentioned earlier, there are several companies that provide various free online PC optimizers. Use a trial version, keeping in mind the above mentioned factors and then buy the one that suits your personal requirements and usage patterns.

ID:16064 Section: Person
Updated:Monday 13th October 2014
George Friedman (born 1949 in Budapest, Hungary) is an American political scientist and author. He is the founder, chief intelligence officer, financial overseer, and CEO of the private intelligence corporation STRATFOR. He has authored several books, including The Next 100 Years, The Next Decade, America''s Secret War, The Intelligence Edge, The Coming War With Japan and The Future of War.Contents
Friedman's childhood was shaped directly by international conflict. He was born in Hungary to Holocaust survivors. His family fled Hungary when he was a child to escape the Communist regime, settling first in a camp for displaced persons in Austria and then immigrating to the United States, where he attended public schools in New York City, and was an early designer of computerized war games. Friedman describes his family's story as "a very classic story of refugees making a new life in America." He received a B.A. at the City College of New York, where he majored in political science, and a Ph.D. in government at Cornell University.
Prior to joining the private sector, Friedman spent almost twenty years in academia, teaching political science at Dickinson College. During this time, he also regularly briefed senior commanders in the armed services as well as the Office of Net Assessments, SHAPE Technical Center, the U.S. Army War College, National Defense University and the RAND Corporation, on security and national defense matters.
Friedman pursued political philosophy with his early work focusing on Marxism, as well as international conflict, including examination of the U.S.-Soviet relationship from a military perspective. After the collapse of the Soviet Union, Friedman studied potential for a U.S.-Japan conflict and co-authored The Coming War with Japan in 1991. He is also the author or co-author of books examining topics as diverse as the Frankfurt School and warfare, including The Future of War, The Next Hundred Years, The Intelligence Edge, and America's Secret War.
In 1996, he founded STRATFOR, a private intelligence and forecasting company, and has served as the company''s CEO and Chief Intelligence Officer. Stratfor''s head office is in Austin, Texas.Personal life
Friedman is married to Meredith Friedman (née LeBard), has four children, and lives in Austin, Texas. She has been Vicepresident of Stratfor for international relations and communication. She also coauthored several publications, e.g. "The Coming War with Japan".Books

I like to think of myself as a technologist with a Statistics degree who is dabbling in Data Science.
But, even I can't shy away from the easy to use aspects of R.
The allure of the R programming language stayed with me even as I ventured into Pandas, Numpy and Scipy.
Python's robust packages in machine learning frankly amaze me.
It's literally a one-stop shop.
At the same time, it literally takes me less than 30 minutes to run simply statistical analysis in R to explore my dataset.
Machine Learning and Deep Learning packages are now becoming the norm in R as well.
For a while, like any data enthusiast, I started to test out both programming languages side by side for everyday tasks of data science.
Using them across datasets large and small has really made a difference in how I look at each programming language.
Before we delve into the programming languages, I want you to understand that a Data Scientist or Data Analyst or a Data Enthusiast does not actually develop software.
He or she might inform the process of software development and help software developers with data logic that's needed inside the software, but he or she does not actually develop software.
There's a real difference between programming for software development and programming for data analysis.
Software Development requires extensive design of code for simplicity and efficiency.
Object-Oriented languages tend to lend themselves to software development simply because the code is more scalable as the system grows.
Data Science Programming requires the ability to do everything it takes to analyze the data.
By everything, I mean using multidisciplinary set of knowledge from almost every walk of life to figure out the true nature of this data.
The code is used to solve an equation in the form a dataset.
Functional Programming vs.
OOPFunctional Programming Language is a language that:treats computation as the evaluation of mathematical functionsavoids changing-state and mutable dataprogramming is done with expressions or declarationsfunctional code is idempotent or function's return value depends only on its resultFunctional Programming is good when you have a fixed set of things.
As your code evolves, you add new operations on existing things.
In contrast, in Object-Oriented Programming, data can have both mutable and immutable states.
Programming is done with statements and expressions.
Global programming states can affect the function's resulting value.
OOP is good when you have a fixed set of operations on things.
As your code evolves, you add new things.
Why does Data Science lend itself to Functional Programming?Data Science's objective is often to solve a problem.
It is often functional in nature.
Models themselves are essentially equations where the return values need to be the same.
Even in deep learning, the data itself does not change.
New values are added.
But, the data stays the same.
The immutable state is essential for the output to be consistent in the model.
Functional Programming is all about chaining together functions to operate over a simple data structure.
This design makes it easy to implement parallelism.
In any machine learning or deep learning project, parallelism is essential when working with large sets of data.
The Nature of R and PythonPython is an interpreted, high level, general-purpose programming language.
You can do some functional programming in Python.
But, Python is not a functional programming language.
It does not meet the technical specifications of "purity" in the context of a functional programming language.
There are a lot more OO use cases that Python caters to.
Python is actually a good language to use for Object-Oriented Programming.
You will find that because Python is versatile, it will often be used in Software Development.
Even though it's not a strictly functional programming language, it has robust packages for Data Science.
R is primarily a functional programming language.
It contains many tools for creations and manipulations of functions.
You can do anything with functions as you can do with vectors.
Anonymous functions give you the ability to use functions without giving them a name.
This makes possible the chaining of functions that is useful in machine learning and deep learning.
Almost all R objects are immutable.
R environments, however, are mutable.
R has robust visualization libraries such as ggplot2, plot, lattice, etc.
Statisticians use R to visualize data.
Often, quick visualization of data can provide insights into the data that leads to further statistical analysis.
Which One is Better: R vs.
Python?In the real world, it's often difficult to choose R or Python for all of your Data Science efforts.
At the end of the day, the purpose of the programming language is to allow for the simplest and the most efficient code to be used for the job at hand.
Personally, for my Data Science projects, I have taken to use both R and Python in conjunction of other languages for the different steps of the Data Science process.
Exploration of Unstructured Data80% of the world's data is actually unstructured data.
Data such as text, video, and images are all unstructured data.
Python has a multitude of packages such as NLTK, scikit-image, pyPI for natural language processing, image processing, and voice analysis.
Making sense of unstructured data often means that the data needs to be converted into structured data.
Python is very useful for this conversion.
Data Cleaning: Structured Data or Semi-Structured DataWith large sets of data, Python is unbeatable in data cleaning.
You can use packages such as Pandas, NumPy to easily clean up large sets of data.
Frequently, I will also use Perl one-liners for specific data cleaning purposes.
The combination of the two often produces "clean data" in a short span of time.
This way, most of my Data Science effort can be focused on Analysis.
Exploration and Modeling in ROnce you have structured data or semi-structured data, it's much easier to do data exploration in R.
I can write clean code for a multitude of statistical analysis to get to know my data.
It's also easy to use the visualization packages to visualize the data to help with my analysis: ANOVA, Multivariate correlations and Regressions, Factor Analysis, and Geostatistics.
Logistic Regression and Time Series Analysis are both simple to implement in R with easy visualizations.
Feature selection is easily done with R using the caret package and fastcaret package.
Model Selection is easily implemented.
Machine Learning models such as LDA, CART, kNN, SVM and RF all are easily implemented in R.
Each algorithm has its own packages in R.
Training the dataset and cross-validation takes just a few lines of code.
Even Deep Learning, the Keras library in R with Tensor Flow now make this an easier endeavor in R.
Exploration and Modeling in PythonData exploration and modeling is not limited to R.
Python has packages such as NumPy, Matplotlib and Pandas that can help with the data exploration process.
Seaborn is used for visualization much the same way as ggplot2 in R.
Scipy provides all you need for traditional statistical analysis.
SciKit-Learn provides for machine learning algorithm implementation, cross-validation and more.
Using Keras, TensorFlow and PyTorch, deep learning in Python is not also a much easier process.
Machine Learning and Deep Learning often means that you are working with large sets of data that sits in the Cloud.
Most likely the infrastructure aspect of the Data Science project will drive any Data Scientist to AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud.
This will mean that Python will be the default language to use in such large scale Data Science project.
In conclusion, working with real-world data presents complex problems.
These problems can't often be solved with one programming language or another.
Understanding the nature of R and Python can help any programmer, data scientist or data analyst to choose the best programming language for the task at hand.
The hybrid nature of tasks in Data Science means that there will always be a wrestling match between Python and R.
That is a good thing.
The competing nature of the two languages might help us produce the simplest and the most efficient code for our purposes.

License to Translate
If one needs a license to practice medicine or present a legal brief, why not necessitate one to translate? What's the comparison, you ask? Let's look at the list of requirements one needs in order to translate, as well as the gap between the authors of these Torah classics and ourselves, and see if it is indeed necessary.
Rabbi Yehudah Ibn Tibon lists three prerequisites for every translator.
1) Fluency in the source language
How fluent must one be? Let's take Hebrew as the source language. He writes: A translator should be fluent and familiar with all of the rules of grammar. He should know the different types of roots and how they change meaning when they are conjugated. He should also know how to use prefixes and suffixes, modify verbs by tense, gender and number, and differentiate between the subtle nuances of synonyms.
2) Mastery of the target language
Fluency in the source language is just the beginning. The consensus among translators is that the target language should be the stronger of the two. This requires an intimate familiarity with the structure and fluidness of one's native language. A good translator should have a thorough knowledge of syntax and context. He or she should be proficient in the different parts of speech and how they function, as well as when and how each word is used.
3) Understanding of the author's intent
Above all, the intent of the author is paramount. Rabbi Yehudah Ibn Tibon writes that only after understanding the subject matter and intent of the author should one attempt to translate. Without that picture in the mind's eye, one cannot choose words or fashion sentences and paragraphs to recreate an accurate copy of the original. A translator cannot explain what he himself doesn't understand. And dis-figuration of intent is always worse than leaving it blank.
From these prerequisites it becomes apparent that a higher education in linguistics and semantics, besides a comprehensive grounding in Torah literature, is necessary in order to translate Torah texts and classical Hebrew works.
Like legal documents or medical diagnosis, these classic works have rich vocabularies which use pre-defined concepts and identifiable keywords. Their reasoning may be complicated, while their subject matter and tone, weighty and profound. Compound this with the need for impeccable English, and we can begin to understand the difficulties facing today's translators of classical Torah texts. And this is just the beginning.

How can we translate the works of the Early Achronim, let alone the Rishonim, or the Sages of the Talmud? Every word is laden with meaning and purpose and every statement has several levels of understanding. They measured and weighed their words like one dealing with gold or diamonds. Not a single one of their words was chosen for stylistic variety or for the sake of verbosity.
It was this very reason why the 17th century authors, the Pas Lechem on the Chovos Halevavos and the Kol Yehudah on the Kuzari, saw fit to write their extensive commentaries. They explained in their introductions that they labored over each drop of ink that fell from the pen of these Rishonim, to clarify how it was in context and how each succeeding synonym or rhyming repetition articulated a distinctly separate idea.
Nonetheless, translation has been accepted and practiced as a viable option from the beginning of time. The Torah itself was given to translate, as evident by Moshe Rabbeinu explaining it in seventy languages (see Rashi on Devarim 1:5), despite its never-ending levels of profundity.
Sometimes we have to realize our limitations and live within their boundaries. This may entail a verbatim translation or even a simple transliteration. The words Torah and Yetzer Hara have been accepted into today's lexicon for their practicality. Yet, at times, we must gird our loins (another metaphor from a bygone era) and do what others have shied away from, for the benefit of the modern reader.
Bridging the Generation Gap
Fortunately, there are ways we can, at least try, to bridge the generation gap.
- Read up on their works – The more we become intimately familiar with an author's way of thought and style, the better we can translate their works in the appropriate style and frame of mind. These masters left a lasting imprint on the Jewish nation, especially through the medium of their written word. Analyzing the magnitude of that imprint can help us to understand some of their background and act as a reference point on our epic journey.
- Know their milieu – No writer lives in a vacuum. Every author has teachers, as mentors and guides, and students, as protégés and disciples. Many ideas that a Rishon wrote will inevitably find support in his teacher's works, or be mentioned in his disciples' writings. The theories and assumptions that various schools of thought had, resonate down through the ages and were reincarnated in different form and venues. Following their footprints in time can help us to understand some of their core concepts and pinpoint keywords.
- Follow their line of reasoning – In truth, we think the way they did, because we use the same textbook of logic and reason, and follow the same handbook of action and deed. Our common denominator is the Talmud. These great savants were not reading vortimon the parsha or consuming the daily news. Their bread and butter, their daily intake of spiritual nutrition, was Talmud. They lived and breathed it and referred to it to determine every life choice or character precision. Become aware of the Talmudic discussions and Midrashic lore surrounding a topic before approaching translation and choosing terminology.
Translating any work is akin to transmitting a message via radio or email. The words must be committed to electronic impulses before they can be recreated as sound waves or displayed as text. Translating Torah classics also has a two-fold process. Our job as translators is to ferry over the subject matter, not only from one language to another, but also from one generation to the next.
The moral of the story is, make sure the intent of the author is still recognizable and intact when broadcasting their content and portraying their message.

Restorative Justice in Schools
I am very excited to have this opportunity to write about my on-going experiences with working with Restorative Justice (RJ) in schools. I was first introduced to RJ more than eight years ago while working as a vice-principal at the Brookside Secondary School – housed in a Youth Detention Facility in Cobourg, Ontario. From there, I continued my interest in the philosophy in secondary schools in Bowmanville, North Bay and now as Principal in a grade 7 and 8 school in Burk's Falls, Ontario. What is most interesting to me in practicing RJ in schools is the struggle that people have – adults in the school, students and parents have with coming to understand that the status quo reaction of punishment when challenging behavior is a moot point in the process.
For most – when asked why punishment works, they are unable to articulate the foundation upon which this theory of supporting students works. For a few – and very adamant in their fervor, give a clear example of how they were punished in the past and the long lasting impact this made on their schooling, family life and experience in the world. They explain that 'fear' motivates, that this keeps everyone in line and a school without such measures will breed an unruly school where the students will wreak havoc on each other and the teachers. My personal experience as an administrator in a number of schools in Ontario differs from this notion and supports the idea that students already know what is right and wrong and while they make errors in judgment – we need to allow them to stumble along maturing with our guidance and support – understanding that our modeling of the manner in which we (as adults) exercise our authority speaks great volume and to invite their voices in the process of building their self-esteem and characters. While this takes time and a willingness to give over power – the results are positive and rewarding.

Full Licensing Service
We obtain for you ALL required licenses.
We determine your licensing requirements, prepare and fill out all the necessary forms, submit the applications to the various licensing authorities on your behalf, and ensure that you receive all the necessary licenses, permits, and tax registrations.
What Type of Business License Do I Need?
When you start a new business, you may be required to register for certain business licenses and permits before you can open your doors. There are specific Business Licenses, Permits & Tax requirements by your state, and being out of compliance can mean a big headache for you. This article will get you started in determining if you need a license, what type of business license you need, as well as where to get a business license.
Types of Business Licenses and Permits
Not every type of business needs a business permit or license, but if you're involved in the following types of work, you likely will be required by your state to get one:
- restaurant
- accounting
- cosmetology
- building contracting
- appraising
- child care
- medicine
- firearms
- broadcasting
- food preparation
- ground transportation
This is only a partial list; it's important to check with the Small Business Association and your state business licensing entity to find out which pertain to you.
Home-Based Business Licenses
If you plan to work out of your home, you're not necessarily exempt from needing to register a business. Depending on how your neighborhood is zoned, you may need to obtain a Home Occupation Permit, which will allow you to conduct certain types of business out of your home.
You may also need a trade license, such as a child care license or cosmetology license. You would need this whether you worked out of your home or in another type of facility. And if you plan to sell items from your home-based business, either online or offline, you may need a Sales Tax Permit.
It's a wise idea to do the research before you set up shop in your house, including checking with your Homeowner's Association to make sure you stay in compliance with any regulations or laws that relate to the type of new business you're starting. It's better to find out ahead of time that you have hurdles to jump over rather than once you're up and operating.
Why You Need a Business License
You may think "no one will ever ask to see my business license! Why should I bother?"
Here's why: if you plan to open a business bank account, you may be asked to present a copy of your business license. If you plan to seek financing, you'll need to provide it as well. And if you operate one of the types of businesses listed above, it is likely an inspector will come by to make sure your facility is up to code and that you have your business license or permit clearly posted. If you don't, you risk being fined, or worse: shut down.
What a Business License Costs
Typically, business licenses aren't outrageously priced. Costs will vary from state to state, and from industry to industry, but many are around $20 to $200. Make sure to find out if there is an annual renewal fee you'll need to pay when you apply for your business license.
Before you start a new business, do your research on what types of business license you will need to have beforehand. Budget in the cost for the license as well as the time it will take to have your application processed. Don't plan to open your business' doors until you have that license in hand, otherwise you risk being shut down. Stay in compliance and on the safe side of the law, and you'll thrive with your new business!

It's hard to believe, three months have passed since Ramapo for Children's Annual Benefit took place on April 9th at 583 Park Avenue in New York City! This event honored two longstanding Board members, Ann Carmel and Nancy Neff, who served as consecutive Board Presidents and oversaw the fundraising and construction of the campus dining room. Throughout their years of participation, Ann and Nancy have also offered their guidance in other areas of the organization, including finance and development.
The evening's program—enjoyed by 340 guests—included an inspiring speaking program featuring speeches from Richard Buery (Former NYC Deputy Mayor for Strategic Policy Initiatives); Chaya Rapoport (Staff Assistant Experience Participant); Julio Peterson (Board Member and Former Camp Ramapo Camper and Counselor); and Lisa Siegel (Camp Ramapo Camper Parent). Each speaker shared their own personal experiences with Ramapo for Children and the ways in which the organization has impacted their lives.
The incredible success of this event, which has raised $700,000 and counting, will enable us to expand our programming to reach new participants, ultimately paving the way for more young people to have access to opportunities for learning, growth, and success! Here are just a few initiatives we're
better able to support due to the event:
Offering scholarships to even more campers in-need. In 2017, Camp Ramapo welcomed 500 children throughout the summer and provided scholarships to over half of them. In 2018, we know we'll be able to give even more young people a summer of friendship, skill-building, and fun.
Expanding our Campus Performing Arts Center. Recognizing the power of multi-sensory arts activities such as singing, dancing, and performing to enhance children's social and adaptive skills, Ramapo is refurbishing its Performing Arts Center. We are adding the finishing touches right now so it will be ready for the summer.
Impacting educators, youth workers, and caregivers by widening our reach in new communities. Ramapo has been expanding its training program in cities like Newark, Boston, and Baltimore. By bringing the Ramapo Approach to new locations, we will increase the amount of young people we can reach through our programs.
Providing new learning opportunities to young adults on their path towards independence. Ramapo's Staff Assistant Experience program recently introduced a culinary initiative,
during which Staff Assistants work with the campus Culinary Arts Director in preparing breakfasts and dinners for other residential staff, placing an emphasis on understanding nutritional value, food preparation, and service skills. Additionally, a Post-SAE program was launched, offering increased independence and responsibility to several young adults who now live in Ramapo-managed apartments off-campus.
Please follow the links to some wonderful images taken at the Step-and-Repeat, and all throughout the night, as well as this link to The New York Times "Style" section, which recently included images from the event. And keep your eyes and ears open for information on our 2019 event!

This'll Be the Year ... THAT'LL BE THE DAY!
t this time of year, everybody and their mama wants to talk about New Year's resolutions. They would be a wonderful
values. These are the raw materials from which you'll build your mission statement.
tradition if they worked. Too often, though, a resolution ends up taking the form of "I'll stop procrastinating tomorrow." Can't we do a little better than that? Maybe we just need to scrap the whole idea of resolutions, or at least how we think about them.
Once you have that mission, it's easy to align your goals with it. Not to paint in too broad of strokes, but I truly believe that everything you do in life will either work toward your mission or against it. Your mission gives you direction. It inspires commitment, resolve, and dedication. With a clearly defined, personal mission statement, you won't end up asking why you created your resolutions in the first place. As an added bonus, they probably won't get thrown in the garbage by the end of March. It's actually demotivating to make goals that are sure to fall by the wayside. As with anything else in your life, there's no point in taking half measures. Paying lip service to a resolution is about as useful as pretending that you'll climb Mount Everest before 2018 ends. Guess what? It just ain't happening. I hope you're able to approach 2018 with a mission statement that encourages you to improve and achieve. Nobody accomplishes everything they set out to achieve at the beginning of the year. If they did, I'd probably have a Heisman Trophy Nobel Peace Prize sitting on my shelf next to my copy of "The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People." However, we can all set ourselves up for success this year, and the first way to do that is to make resolutions that matter to you. Figure out your mission in life. After all, you can't get where you need to go if you don't know what you're looking for. All of us at Holland & Usry wish grace, peace, and joy to you and yours this year. I thank you for thinking about this with me, and I hope I see you soon.
I can't pretend that I'm an expert on goal-setting, but I've read a book or two on the topic. Instead of telling you I have come up with a revolutionary method of structuring your goals. I'm going to defer to a system I encountered in Stephen Covey's "The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People." He suggests that, instead of creating a laundry list of resolutions that have nothing to do with one another, you create a personal mission statement. A wide-ranging mission statement that reflects your values allows you to create a set of goals that work together. You can't build a solid house without a well-defined blueprint. Similarly, you can't create relevant resolutions without first pinning down what matters in your life. Ask yourself who you are, who you want to be, and which parts of your life are most important. From these basic questions, you'll start to get a clear idea of your

I had chosen Delirium back in January as the Club's first pick but as it was the first month the turn-out was, well, non-existent. However, during the last meeting we talked about our favourite teen books and when I shared my love of Delirium there was a lot of excitement about reading it for the next club. So voila!
The next meeting is Wednesday, June 27th at 7:00 p.m.

We are trying to make a simple show using a Martin Smartmac. It shall move the gobo in a "8" movement on the floor and rotate the gobo so it is always swimming in the correct direction. (The gobo is a sperm).
In Easy standalone we program all the movements in 20 ms cycles and all runs fine and smooth as long as the computer is connected. When we transfer the show to the SLESA-U5 and runs it, it is horrible to watch. It seems it cannot move both pan and tilt at the same time and it stutters around moving one axis at the time. You could not even guess it was th same show as running from the PC.
Anyone has any ideas what we are doing wrong? Or can't the software do it?
We have this problem with another lamp as well so it has to be the Sunlite setup that is messing up for us( or us messing up Sunlite) :-)
