Like LeadPages, but a little simpler and easier to use. The editor for their template and site building platform is incredibly easy to use, so much so that you’ll be surprised how easily you can find everything. They have over 100 templates to use as starting points, and they’re all completely customizable so your site never feels like it looks just like a thousand other sites online.
I’d like to commend Convertri on being the most advanced webpage building software ever created. It’s idiot proof, and I’m the idiot that proved it. Simply, an amazing piece of software… I’d also like to applaud you for your enthusiasm about your business, you can tell this project is your baby & you LOVE it. Proud to be a part of something extraordinary.
Thank you Jackson for your time providing your insights and happiness for being part of Convertri family. It's great to see how you've compared with ClickFunnels and Kartra based on the core strength and objective of creating Convertri - Ease & Speed. You can easily create Welcome Gates using Layers and if you require more details just drop a message on Facebook group and you'll be surprised how many people are ready to help. For now you have access to all Google Fonts which helps find the most similar font to what you would require, however devs will check feasibility of having font import feature. And although the purpose is not to make websites but they are possible! You may search full-blown multi-page website samples on Facebook Group.
That’s where the use of an effective landing page and lead generation software can assist you. Landing pages are often called click-through pages also so if you see that term don’t get confused. There are a lot of different ways that you can utilize your landing page and we’re going to cover those more in detail later in this article. In summary, a landing page can serve whatever purpose you want it to which is what makes them such an effective method for lead generation and capture.
An easy to use, a clean dashboard will be found in LeadPages while Clickfunnels dashboard uses flat icons and images throughout the pages. After all, display and orientation matter. Clickfunnels has highly customized options for the landing pages with lead pages doesn’t have that feature. As a result, the marketers could easily recognize the pages made from LeadPages from space.
Cons: I really have to be careful when I consider what I do not like about the software, meaning: is the problem the software or me? For example, I always struggle with adding a domain. I have observes that the various templates tend to be too similar to each other and need a higher level of base creativity. At times I have had difficulty with tutorial for forms building. Many times tutorials are a bit confusing or unClear, however, I see many tutorial tend to be upgraded over time.
Follow directions for DNS and CNAME record setup to the letter to direct your landing pages to a subdomain on your domain. This is the most technical option of the three, but if you’re planning on setting up a lot of landing pages or landing pages for a lot of sites, you’ll want to learn how to do this so you don’t have to go bug the Dev team every time you need a new page.
All these without analytics won’t be good, right? Instapage provides analytics for A/B test campaigns and running campaigns to make your numbers strong. To coherently assemble and accumulate the ever pouring data into the art of analytics is something that Instapage specializes in. Important metrics such as view conversion rates over time, view conversion vs unique visitors have been added in the analytics dashboard to help users set benchmarks and review them.
The implementation of landing pages on small business websites is surprisingly a very new method that has only been around for less than a decade. The reason so many people use landing pages is that they are a really effective way to essentially put your lead capturing abilities on autopilot. Landing pages provide a way for small business owners to capture high-quality leads that can potentially lead to further sales on a consistent basis.
There are a number of different tools for creating a landing page and Leadpages is the best of them. However, there can be some drawbacks with Leadpages too. Because different businesses have different requirements and it not necessary that Leadpages cover all of them. So today, I am going to talk about some of the Best Leadpages Alternatives to grow your Email List.
The Hello Bar is perfect for every kind of website and allows its users to create effective messages to get them to subscribe. Unlike other page builders, the Hello Bar as the name suggests is a bar on top of your websites page. People who get annoyed with popups and close the website will now stay on your page as it does not stop them from browsing with different popups.
Like LeadPages, but specifically designed for WordPress sites. This one allows you to create landing pages, sales pages, membership pages, full product launch funnels, and blogs. It’s also mobile-ready, with everything you need to have a responsive site designed with their templates. They don’t have a free option, but their basic package is only $100, with the pro package working up to $300.
SE Ranking offers different payment plans that are priced depending on the frequency of ranking checks and how long your subscription period will be. If you are unsure about which subscription package is ideal for your business, SE Ranking’s has a price calculator available on their website that you can use. https://seranking.com/subscription.html Optimum – from $18.60/month
Leadpages is a landing page builder and lead generation software that lets you easily create, host, test, manage, and track landing pages. The platform comes as the alternatives to Instapage and offers all the core services and features with some new 3rd-party integrations that make it better than others. It is uniquely created for everyone and allow to easily create and modify unlimited landing pages with dozens of dynamic elements, including countdown timer, buy buttons, and more. You can easily publish its every page on any site without any limitation. There is also has a complete template management system that comes with more than 100 pre-built templates. You can easily choose and customize each its template without any limitation. Leadpages is a commercial tool and offers three different price plans; each plan has its own cost and benefits. Its most popular feature includes customizing fields, lead generation, content management, 404-page conversion, contact management, and email integration, etc.
Bother Leadpages and Unbounce also offer templates for all the major industry categories. Then in addition to that, it’s possible to sort your options on both platforms according to the type of campaign page you want to build. But, while Leadpages goes ahead filters the templates further according to their conversion rates, Unbounce allows you to focus on templates with selected features.
Click funnel receives only email support if you are a regular email holder while the enterprise account holder gets priority phone support. LeadPages customers receive better support if compared. While regular members receive only email support, Pro members enjoy live chat and email support, and Enterprise members gets all three: Live chat, email and phone support.

Mironova Artyomova. Bedroom. December 05th , 2017.
Use brick as a canvas for individualism. This bedroom features The Beatles, a wood-engraved tree painting, London Underground collage and telescope out to the stars. Three dramatically-thick ceiling fans tie the tones in.
By using different colors and types of wood this accent wall turns what would otherwise be an ordinary wall into an intriguing work of art. Although the main focus of this room is the gorgeous stencil bed, the slats provide a charming background that complements the bed. Like the bed? We’ll help you find something similar that matches your personality.
Make the most of a curved skylight with a white brick wall underneath. This beautifully-lit room sets the scene with an abstract painting, oscillating wooden floor patterns and an easel to the side.
The bedroom is a retreat. A place for relaxation, pampering and most of all sleep, its walls are often forgotten in tired wallpaper and outdated skirting boards. Make your bedroom inspirational with a new look – an exposed brick wall. Beautiful when distressed, there’s no need to fear their instantly-stylish and hardy exteriors. Give your room a Scandinavian twist, with a full brick wall behind the bed in red. Make your headboard one of brick, in natural, distressed or painted tones. Make your brick a feature wall in an eclectic room, levelling up to a rich and personal design. Take a look at our top forty brick picks.

Facts and Events
Adam: Biographical Information
Adam and Hagar were the parents of Friday Johnson and Violet Washington, who may have ties to Drayton family plantations in Charleston, South Carolina.
We do not as yet know if Adam and Hagar were enslaved on Drayton family plantations, or who their last slaveholders were.
Violet Washington, age 32, opened a Freedmen's Bank account in Charleston, South Carolina on August 14, 1869. On her application, she stated that she was born in Georgetown County, South Carolina. In her application, Violet stated that her parents were Adam and Hagar (both deceased), her brothers were Friday Johnson and Peter Gilliard, and her sisters were Maria, Fanny and Diana (all deceased).
Violet's husband was Stephen Washington. They lived on Green Street near Dr. Bellinger and had no children in 1869. Violet was a seller in the Lower Market.
Violet's brother Friday Johnson opened a Freedmen's Bank account on October 4 1871. The family information on his application agrees with that on Violet's account record: their parents were Adam and Hagar, they were born in Georgetown County, South Carolina. Friday names his brother Peter in his account record but lists him as deceased in 1871.
This family is of interest to us for our Drayton family research for several reasons: 1. A Patsey Johnson accompanied her cousin Ellen Wilson when Ellen opened her Freedmen's Bank account. Ellen was born and raised on Drayton Hall Plantation, Ashley River.
2. Bowens/Johnson descendants recognize Violet Washington as a family member although they are not sure exactly where she fits into their family line.
3. As we shall develop as we add records for this family, in the decades following the making of these two Freedmen's Bank records, Violet Washington, sister of Friday Johnson Person:Friday Johnson (3) continued to be closely associated with the Friday Johnson who fits directly into the central Bowens/Johnson lineage Person:Friday Johnson (1). Are the two Friday Johnsons related to one another? Are they the same person? The answer awaits further research.

I want to share with you my latest project and I hope you like it ^_^
By the way, I had the opportunity to write an article for 80.lv and detailed the whole production
80.lv Article link :
Based on random references and my imagination
I had used Marvelous Designer for the cloth pieces and food bags, blender for highpoly/lowpoly modeling and UVmap, also used Headus UVlayout to find mistakes and make a perfect UVmap, scene optimization in Blender before export it to UE4 and I used modular technology
I used substance painter for baking maps and texturing everything and used substance designer for creating some simple materials and photoshop for making some signs which used with substance painter as black mask
The scene rendered with UE4 I used static lighting and post process for a little bit of color correction, the scene runs at average 70FPS with GTX 780.

The City of Iqaluit says testing shows a high concentration of fuel in a tank that supplies water to the Nunavut capital.
It says the fuel could be diesel or kerosene, but that long-term health effects are not a concern.
Residents of the community of 8,000 people were told on Tuesday not to drink tap water after it was discovered it may be contaminated by fuel.
Some residents reported smelling fuel in their water last week, but city officials said regular testing came back clear.
Staff then discovered a holding tank that had a strong fuel smell and the city put out a notice to not drink the tap water.
The Nunavut government has been flying in shipments of potable water, while many residents have collected freshwater from a nearby river.

A major bill that givesthe FBI power to continue surveillance on new phone networks was approved lateFriday night, but online services will largely be spared from the government'swatchful eye. The Digital Telephony Bill -- in the Senate it's S2375, in theHouse HR4922 -- forces telephone companies to make any new networks they develop"wiretap ready" for the FBI; Congress has set aside $500 million over four yearsto reimburse the corporations for compliance. However, an earlier draft of thelegislation was changed so that online bulletin board services such as AmericaOnline have been excluded from the provisions. And restrictions on releasingrecords regarding transactions on the Net were actually tightened. Jerry Berman,deputy policy director of the Electronic Frontier Foundation, called the newbill a "significant victory" for electronic wanderers. Clinton's expected tosign it Wednesday.


NEW YORK, Aug. 25 (Xinhua) -- The Empire State Building shooting left nine people wounded by friendly fire from two police officers, New York police chief said on Saturday.
All nine people suffered minor injuries and were expected to survive. The incident was caused by a shootout between the police and a gunman named Jeffrey Johnson.
According to the New York Police Department (NYPD), officer Craig Matthews shot seven times, and officer Robert Sinishtaj fired nine times. Though Johnson was killed, nine other people were also bleeding on the sidewalk.
Based on ballistic evidences, "all nine victims were injured either by fragments or by bullets fired by police," NYPD Commissioner Raymond Kelly said.
The two police officers had little time to react when Johnson whirled around and pointed a pistol at them, Kelly added.
"We have on tape the perpetrator pulled his gun out and tried to shoot at the cops," New York City mayor Michael Bloomberg said earlier.

Well, we are on beta 3 of aquaria, and the beta testers have gotten licenses to go beyond the demo area. This is very exciting and I have gotten pretty far. I am stuck on the fish cave, and how to get the song, and also on the Sun Temple boss. Thinking of getting an account on the Bit-Blot forums to ask for help.
About 5 more weeks until school starts, This year should be better than last, had the worst teacher I ever had last year, any way, enough of chatting, let’s get talking.
At the end of the year, I had promised my self that I would buy a variety of things, including Guild Wars. Now GW is a windows only game, but, I have CrossOver Games. CrossOver is a port of Wine to mac, the version I got was made specifically for games. My name character’s name is Indigo Casson, if anybody wants to say hello.
I have found a very nice wordpress theme called Duffy. It looks very nice and has a kind of olden time look, as well as a kind of fantasy medieval theme. If you search on google for “infocreek free wordpress themes”, you should get it, it is about the second theme down on the list. Unfortunately, I cannot use my own themes on wordpress.com, so I must wait for until I have a website of my own.

So happy to be posting a card today. They are coming few and far between these days. It must be summer!! (Insert happy dance here). My card has been created for the Poppy Sketches Challenge. They provide the sketch and one other POP. This time it's to use the harlequin pattern somewhere on your card.
Here is the sketch:
And here's my card:
I couldn't find any harlequin paper in my stash. Can you believe it? I have more designer paper than 5 people could use in 2 lifetimes. You would think there would be what I want - but NO!!! So I decided to make my own by scoring some ivory card stock and then stamping the butterfly and leaf images on it. I finished it off with some Liquid Pearls to accent the design. The butterfly has 3 layers, with the last one being out of vellum.
Here are the materials I used:
Gina K Designs Jellybean Green Card Stock.
Gina K Designs Ivory Card Stock.
Gina K Designs Petals and Wings Patterned Paper
Gina K Designs Petals and Wings Stamp Set
Gina K Designs Nature's Greetings Stamp Set
Gina K Designs Spring Basket Stamp Set
Papertrey Ink Button Stacks Die
Martha Stewart Butterfly Punch
It's been raining quite a lot here. Hoping it will make our gardens pop. That's it for me, thanks for stopping by my friends.

These wipes appear to be great in terms of ingredients but I have 2 niggles that might offer a lessons learnt for others:
1) They are insanely expensive and after using them for a few weeks I really don't understand why! I will finish the packet but have found that a small damp microfibre cloth provides an equally useful cat wiping tool and is also better at holding onto tiny skin flakes etc. Perhaps for wiping animals rears, you might want a more disposable solution.
2) The scent on them is very artificially sickly and pretty overpowering. The vote in our family is Eugh, whats that smell.
So in summary a good experiment, but one I won't be repeating with Chloe Cat.

I’ve been handling a lot of Sadness in 2018, sometimes life seems to deal you some tough cards. It’s a positive that I’ve noticed, but what can you do and where does it come from? Read on for some helpful thoughts.
Causes of sad feelings
Sometimes things change. People and things you hold dear move out of your life. It seems like something that’s worse in Winter, but perhaps it’s a time when you think about this more as the evenings are long and you get out less/have more dwell time.
Loss of loved ones, Loss of a job or friends from your network. Loss of comfort of familiarity of a place you’ve worked. Lots can change, more so as you reach middle age and you’re less protected and realise your not made of steel. Maybe the realisation that you won’t last forever lands. Neither will your older relatives.
Also, recently the news has been pretty turbulent and negative. We’ve heard daily accounts about BREXIT, Climate change and lots of international uncertainty. (That’s a whole other topic, so enough on that already.)
There’s been a real cloud of unresolved problems ready to beam into your head every time you turn on the radio.
What can you do to handle sadness?
From research into meditation and mental health, the key to all of thisat the start is to notice it, that’s step one. But then what?
It’s critical to do a couple of things if you feel like your sadness and negativity it’s building up:
- Notice it. Don’t give yourself a hard time, be a sympathetic friend to your emotions. Just notice, don’t judge. That’s all.
- Process it – take the time to grieve or digest what’s happened if you’ve suffered a loss.
- Work through it – do the things that help you move through it. Visit your loved ones house or go that funeral, or look at those photos or read that book again. Go over the rough ground.
- Recover and restart. You’ll know when you are ready, get back to activities that nourish you, maybe choose some new ones.
Steps 2, 3 take time and I can’t say how long you will need. It can be six to twelve months. Do what’s necessary to process it. For me, I had conversations with those that have departed and took time to be by myself. Be careful not to digest too much negative digital media. As we’ve seen on the news there’s some harmful stuff out there. When you are ready its time to move to step four and start to rebuild.
Recovery is a verb
When you are ready, start to do again. The best advice is simple – do a little of what you enjoy or what you know will build you again.
Start an upward spiral of activities that help you move forward again. This can seem daunting, so think ‘Minimal Viable Product’ or MVP.
What’s the smallest slice of something you could do? (the minimal that would still be effective.) Start small, so you don’t get over-faced by what you’re doing.
Begin with a small step – it’s really about being your own sympathetic friend from step 1, but, you have to get off the sofa now. It’s about doing now. That’s how we move forward – with activities.
Small doings add up
As an older working parent it’s been my experience that to preserve your own sanity and sense of self and prevent your waistline from expanding to the size Jupiter’s outer rings, you need to ‘slice’ your exercise and hobbies to fit them in.
You may need to slice them very thinly indeed, but with some adaptation you can stay fit, flexible and do creative things. Be minimal.
Here are a few examples of how you can help yourself during sadness recovery:
1 – The Gym is dead
Nobody has time for 2 hours every week of indulgent exercise, so you need to go ‘MVP’ on exercise, slice it thin and bring it closer to home. This also works if you don’t like gyms, they are not for everyone. So – don’t think ‘gym’ but do think elements of exercise; resistance work, stretching and physical challenges. Do some ‘Planks‘ at home, Use a wall to do an L-shaped hand-stand. Find those little moments where you can walk briskly to the shops or do some arm-hangs in the park while your little one sits on a swing. Whatever your level is, do those things, just a little, to get active and back out there again.
2 – Learn in small chunks
– Again, don’t over-reach to start with. If you find yourself admiring a Masters degree website, stop right there. Go MVP and watch a video, listen to a Podcast, read a short book. Keep it short and bite-sized while you are in recovery. I took on a coaching diploma during one spell of redundancy and then bailed out to do a short certificate with the Open University. I was much happier with a smaller task. Go small, so you don’t get overwhelmed as the danger is you will stop and then start to spiral down. Find small ways to spiral up, as you will find your energy levels are low while you are in post-sadness recovery.
3 – Don’t ‘over-compare your mental Meer-kat’
Be really wary of how much news, social media and toxic banter you enter into while you’re getting back on your feet. The media you consume seems like a distraction, but it’s often feeding your subconscious mind some very negative juice.
Everything you consume gets compared with yourself subconsciously, so just like the advert, be careful of digital material that fuels false comparisons. I recently dropped contact with a range of People, Companies and Groups I follow online as none of it was doing me any good. Social media is a very filtered, polished collection of ‘best days’ from people’s lives. It’s not good to compare yourself to these fake projections.
Unfollow, Unfollow, un-plug and un-install from sources of negative comparisons online.
” Simples!! “
Protect your inner Meerkat from this content. I’d also recommend having a couple of days a week where you don’t listen or watch any national news, due to the depressing content that naturally makes headlines. Give it a try, go news free!
4 – Watch your consumption levels
Too much of anything consumed is bad for your body. The things that can really warp your mood includes caffeine, sugar, alcohol, carbohydrate and YouTube/screen-time before you sleep. Keep tabs on how much your using these things and make sure they aren’t using you chemically or financially. You are what you eat, and what you consume and watch. This brings me back to point 3 to some extent. Watch happy things. Feed your mind with good content.
Review your supporters club
This is really important skill gets a section on its own, due to the impact other people can have on your psyche.
The people you hang out with also contribute to your state of mind and can help or hinder your recovery.
Just like the points above in terms of what you do, what you consume, check who you spend your time with. Your personality and your state of mind is also a product of who you associate with, at the cafe or in the office.
We are all programmed to copy (or Ape) the people/groups we hang out with, so choose the right friends or crowds.
Wrap-up your sadness
Being sad happens, but it also ends. Be your own best friend during this time, but notice any negative influencers and be selective on what you consume in terms of food and media. Don’t spend time comparing your Meerkat with false projections on social media.
Starting back is hard, but recovery is a verb (it’s a doing thing) so start with small slices of what you want to do. Go MVP. Small is good.
If your time is pressured, spend your free-time wisely with the right people and make good choices on who and what you consume.
Recovery takes time, but you often find you end up in a much better place. Make good choices on your road to your new future. Re-select what you do. There is opportunity here.
You will get there. It will be better.

Captain’s log: stardate 51471.3
Andre Bormanis (who serves as the science consultant for both Voyager and Deep Space Nine) pens this episode that first aired on 14 January, 1998. The crew of the Voyager all seem to be suffering from night terrors, and all of them feature the exact same alien (Mark Colson) .
Of course, everyone is a little testy, and sooner or later they all start to share the details of their dreams, and the presence of a strange being in each of their night terrors. It’s like Voyager’s take on Nightmare on Elm Street.
Chakotay (Robert Beltran) suggests the idea of lucid dreaming, and goes Dream Warriors a la Star Trek on the alien.
It seems this race sees dream life just as valid an existence as waking life. In fact they seem to exist solely in a dream realm, which is their reality. Chakotay begins to wonder whether or not he’s still dreaming or not, but he’s got a subtle image to remind himself that he is dreaming… can he stop the aliens?
It ends up being a solid Trek tale, and not quite so Dream Warriors as I would have liked, but it’s definitely an episode I enjoyed.
In terms of continuity Torres (Roxann Dawson) gets a bit of a new uniform, she gets a jacket, not unlike Picard’s, this was done to hide Dawson’s pregnancy. The episode also gives us a look at the inner lives of a number of characters, and adds layers to each of them.
Captain’s log: stardate 51462
Lisa Klink pens this Doctor (Robert Picardo) episode from a story by Rick Williams. It first aired on 21 January, 1998.
Seven of Nine (Jeri Ryan) discovers a subspace relay created by aliens, and has the ability to send a message to a starship, the Prometheus, in the Alpha Quadrant. They are able to send the Doctor via the relay, where he encounters that ships Emergency Medical Hologram Mark II (Andy Dick).
The ship also seems to be under the control of the Romulans, led by Commander Rekar (character actor Judson Scott). The Doctor must deal with the Romulans aboard the Prometheus even as it is pursued by a number of Starfleet vessels.
He learns about the Dominion War, and the fact that the Prometheus is a new experimental ship. And upon his return to the Voyager, he is able to impart some good news to the crew.
In terms of continuity we get our first introduction to the Hirogen, as it is their communications network that the Voyager is using. And of course, while the Doctor is in the Alpha Quadrant, Paris (Robert Duncan McNeill) is serving in the Voyager’s sickbay.
There’s a lot of humor n this episode, but the ending is nicely emotional as the news that Starfleet is no aware of the Voyager’s continued existence, and not all hands lost after all is consoling to the captain and the crew.
Next week the Human Adventure continues as I explore Star Trek: Voyager – The Complete Series on DVD from Paramount Pictures.

Erickson family has troubled Lake Area Bank's back
Send this to a friend

See correction at end of article.
The Claire Erickson family, which owns Freedom Valu Centers gas stations, is using its deep family roots and diverse business lines to help support its financial institution, Lake Area Bank, through the economic downturn.
The White Bear Lake-based bank has sustained $1.4 million in losses for the first three quarters of 2009. It also has more than $17 million in defaulted loans on its books, largely from residential construction and land development in the northeast Twin Cities. Those loans could sink the bank further into the red in the coming quarters.
But the Erickson family, which also owns Hudson, Wis.-based Freedom Valu Centers Inc., have added capital to keep the bank strong and is willing to add more if necessary, said Marc Campbell, Lake Area Bank’s president and chief operating officer.
“We’ve got shareholders who are committed to maintaining a strong capital position and who have the capital resources” to do so, said Campbell, adding that the Erickson family has already injected $2 million into the bank to maintain its capital reserves so it can sustain future losses. The bank has $311.2 million in assets.
Over the past year, the Erickson family’s challenges have encompassed more than the banking crisis.
In March, bank chairman and Freedom co-founder Claire Erickson and his wife of 60 years, Betty, were found dead in their Hudson home in an apparent murder-suicide. Betty Erickson, 81, had suffered from Alzheimer’s disease, and Claire apparently killed her and then himself, according to news reports. The couple’s son David Erickson told the Star Tribune his father did it “out of love” for Betty and their three children. David Erickson runs Freedom Valu Centers and sits on Lake Area Bank’s board of directors.

text: I hope I posted this in the right section. My dog recently had a bout with prancreatis last week end. This resulted in him staying in the vet hospital for three days. After reading here on the internet about it I am sure by the symptoms it was his pancreas. It came about very suddenly-in the matter of hours. The vet told me he was to be put on a bland diet of white rice, chicken (not fried) and scrambled egg. I was just wondering if anyone here has had this problem with their dog. My dog Dodge is doing well and he is eating this diet. Will he continue to have to eat this diet or put on special dog food? He goes back to his vet in another week for another x ray. The vet thought he may have a [problem with his pancreas due a mass on the x ray. Any info would be helpful.

When I first read the words "FPS with a rearview mirror," I figured it was just a neat trick: a game having some yuks with old rendering tricks like the mirrors in Deus Ex or Mario 64, with the real meat and potatoes of the shooter still having to carry the day. Playing Hellscreen's demo a few months ago, I immediately put those thoughts to bed—this isn't a gimmick, it's the essential mechanic of this new retro shooter. Hellscreen's just-released first episode, meanwhile, proves that rearview shooting isn't the only trick solo developer Jamie D has up his sleeve.
First off, let's go over how this titular Hellscreen (hell mirror?) works. You have a mini, lower-res screen in the upper quadrant of your view at all times, and can blow it up and shrink it back down with the shift key. Left click fires forward, while right click fires backwards and does quadruple damage while you're in motion.
This encouraged me to primarily play in "strafing runs," zooming past enemies while aiming behind as I went. It lends Hellscreen a rhythm all its own, and the game also makes some enemies and secrets only visible in the second screen. There are even areas where your main view is occluded and you can only navigate in reverse. My one complaint is that some of the art plays havoc with the second screen's low resolution—the mine level in particular has these bright white floors that give off a blinding, Xbox 360-style bloom in the mirror that makes it impossible to aim.
The levels are top notch though—I think it's an achievement that Hellscreen's main gimmick could stand on its own with weaker level design, while its maps and innovative progression could in turn carry a less interesting shooter. Together they're a must-play experience.
Progression through Hellscreen is gated by collectibles—little soul orbs awarded on level completion and hidden throughout the maps—in a way that reminds me most of old school 3D platformers like Mario 64 or Spyro. Hellscreen introduces a light bit of Metroidvania backtracking as well, with certain weapons destroying environmental obstacles and opening new paths through earlier missions. Further, there are these ghostly platforms scattered around, teasing you, that can only be made whole after flicking a later-game switch.
Pressing Tab at any time warps you to a gallery of portals to the different missions like an old 3D platformer hub. Pressing Tab again seamlessly drops you back into the action like you'd just unpaused the game, and the technical wizardry behind that and Hellscreen's constant double-rendering of any given scene is seriously impressive. In addition to the wow factor, I found this quick loading encouraged me to duck in and out of maps when I got stuck or found a new tool that would open up a dead end from earlier, though I wish level-by-level progress for second-order collectibles (find six little purple guys to make one big red guy!) would persist between loads, encouraging even more backtracking and improvisation.
It's a unique setup for a shooter, and I was also surprised at just how far Hellscreen pushes its red and teal alien art style. My favorite is this short, early mission called "Fragmented" which sees you platforming around a giant, leafy plant in the middle of an otherwise-empty arena. I came in expecting Giger-esque hellscapes, and the game's got those, but it's really refreshing how much variety is here in the first episode alone.
Hellscreen really delivers in early access, and though it only took me two hours to reach its final level, I'm pretty sure I found less than half its collectibles, and episodic shooters are one of the best fits for an early access model—this isn't an RPG or a survival game where you'll log on in half a year to find an entirely different early game. You can just pick up where you left off in episode two, as I'll be doing. Hellscreen is $17.99/£14.99 on Steam.

Doc Rivers’s penchant for playoff collapses and second-round exits cost him his coaching job with the Philadelphia 76ers.
The 76ers fired Rivers Tuesday following a third straight exit in the second round of the playoffs, and the second time over that span he lost a series lead and a Game 7.
Rivers led the 76ers to their second straight 50-win season behind NBA MVP Joel Embiid but again failed to lead them to the Eastern Conference finals for the first time since 2001. The Sixers have not won an NBA championship since 1983.
“We’re grateful for all he did in his three seasons here and thank him for the important impact he made on our franchise,” team president Daryl Morey said in a statement. “After having the chance to reflect upon our season, we decided that certain changes are necessary to further our goals of competing for a championship.”
The 76ers held a three-games-to-two lead in the Eastern semifinals against the Celtics before dropping Game 6 at home, then were crushed in Game 7 on the road.
Rivers fell to 6-10 in Game 7s. The 10 defeats are five more than any other NBA coach.
Rivers and the 76ers also lost a Game 7 at home in the second round to Atlanta in 2021 as a No. 1 seed. Embiid endorsed Rivers’s return following Sunday’s loss but James Harden was noncommittal about wanting Rivers back.
Rivers, who had two years left on his contract, was 154-82 in three years with the Sixers. His only NBA title came in 2008, when he guided the Celtics to banner No. 17.
Asked after the 112-88 thumping in Boston if he expected to be back next year, Rivers said, “Yeah. I think I got two years left. No one is safe in our business and I get that.”
He’s just the latest big-name coach fired already during the postseason, and the 76ers are sure to have their pick among the best in the game. Nick Nurse (Toronto) and Mike Budenholzer (Milwaukee) have been fired after both won championships since 2019 and former Sixers assistant Monty Williams (who coached Phoenix in the 2021 NBA Finals) also is available.
Rivers took over ahead of the 2020-21 season for Brett Brown, who was fired after the 76ers were swept in the first round of the playoffs.
Rivers himself had just been fired about two weeks after the Los Angeles Clippers wasted a 3-1 series lead and lost to the Denver Nuggets in the Western Conference semifinals.
He expected to coach a team seemingly on the brink of winning a title. Instead, he was on the bench for one of the worst losses in team history, a franchise-shifting loss to Atlanta in Game 7 that came on the heels of Ben Simmons failing to dunk an uncontested shot, which spiraled into a loss and the end of the All-Star guard’s tenure in Philadelphia. Simmons never played for the 76ers again after Rivers and Embiid declined to publicly back the star following the loss, and the relationship soured from there.
Simmons was traded a year later for Harden, who was expected to serve as the missing piece that could get Embiid a championship. Or least into the conference finals.
Asked after the Game 7 loss in Boston to describe his relationship with Rivers and whether he’d like the coach to return for a fourth season, Harden said, “Our relationship is OK,” and didn’t answer the second part.
Now, it doesn’t matter.
“I thought we had the right group,” Rivers said. “I really did.”
One other intriguing potential candidate to keep an eye on is former Rockets coach Mike D’Antoni. D’Antoni coached Harden for four seasons in Houston and they both thrived there working under Morey. Morey has been a staunch Harden defender and worked hard to bring him to the 76ers. With Rivers gone, another reunion could be on the horizon.
Harden, who played the last few months with nagging left Achilles’ tendon soreness, has a player option of $35.6 million. He was vague on what he will do this summer. But perhaps a reunion with D’Antoni — or, at the very least a coach who knows how to pair Harden-Embiid to their strengths — can entice The Beard to stay.
Grizzlies guard Desmond Bane has surgery on broken bone in right big toe
Memphis Grizzlies guard Desmond Bane had surgery on his right big toe after initially breaking a bone during a game Nov. 11 against Minnesota.
The Grizzlies announced the procedure on a broken medial sesamoid bone in the toe. The team says Bane is expected to be fully recovered before the start of the season.
Bane initially hurt his toe during the Grizzlies’ win Nov. 11 against the Timberwolves. He finished that win over Minnesota with 24 points and five assists. The Grizzlies announced the next day the third-year player out of TCU would miss at least two to three weeks with a sprained toe.
He missed 17 games and returned Dec. 23.


What is temperature and humidity data logger?
Data loggers for temperature and humidity are capable of measuring data at defined intervals. These are then stored in an integrated data memory. This involves separate temperature data loggers and humidity data loggers, along with instruments which carry out both measurements.
What is humidity data logger?
Humidity and Temperature Data Loggers allow you to monitor and record both humidity and temperature values over a period in time. The data is typically viewed using software that, in most cases, is available as a free download.
What is a temperature data logger used for?
A temperature data logger, also known as a digital temperature sensor, is a portable measurement device that records temperature changes over time. These devices can work independently and generally used in environmental monitoring for shipments involving food, pharmaceuticals, and chemicals.
Why is a data logger better than a thermometer?
Benefits of using a data logger An example of this might be recording the temperature changes over the course of an hour in a centrally heated room using a timer, thermometer, pen and paper. However, using an electronic data logger is much more effective, accurate and reliable than taking periodic manual readings.
What is temperature humidity recorder?
Environmental temperature and humidity data loggers generally feature built-in sensors and are used to measure ambient temperature and humidity in many settings. Popular applications include calibration rooms, greenhouses, warehouses, basements, attics, and even cigar humidors.
What is temperature and humidity?
Temperature is the measure of warmth or coldness in reference to a set standard, often expressed in terms of degrees Fahrenheit or Celsius. Humidity refers to the amount of water vapor, or moisture, in the air.
How do you record humidity?
The easiest way to measure your indoor humidity level is by using a hygrometer. A hygrometer is a device that serves as an indoor thermometer and humidity monitor.
How should data loggers be used?
Data loggers should be positioned alongside the vaccines, preferably in the middle of a fridge where the temperature is most stable. Ice build-up should be avoided because this reduces the effectiveness of the refrigerator.
What are the advantages of a data logger?
Data loggers are a reliable, low-cost and time-efficient monitoring solution for any measuring opportunity. Some of the key advantages of data logging include high accuracy, ease of use and greater versatility in every application.
How to calculate temperature and humidity data?
Connect the First pin on the DHT22 which is the VCC pin to 5V on the Arduino
How does data logger temperature work?
How Does a Temperature Data Logger Work? Often battery powered, a temperature data logger accepts one or more sensor inputs, sampling and saving data at a predetermined frequency. At the end of the acquisition period the logger is recovered, and the data is downloaded onto a PC for analysis.
Temperature data loggers are used for temperature and humidity monitoring and are above all employed in the industrial sector, where temperature and humidity play a major role. In this respect, a distinction is made between single-use instruments and long-term monitoring instruments.
How to calibrate a data logger?
Temperature and humidity are two variables which are often monitored by digital data loggers. Either one can serve as an effective illustration of how digital data logger calibration works. Take a temperature calibration, for instance. A temperature calibration involves comparing one data logger against a second piece of equipment that has already been calibrated for a particular parameter.

In this note, let’s define analytics as the analysis of data in order to take actions. (This is a narrow definition of analytics, but one that is useful here.) If you don’t have day to day work experience with analytics, it is easy to have the mistaken impression that analytics is only about data and statistical models.
Although understanding data and developing statistical models is certainly an important component of an analytic project, this is just one aspect of analytics. This aspect includes cleaning data, enriching data, exploring data, developing features, building models, validating models, and iterating the process. From a broad perspective, this is a process in which the input is data and the output is a statistical model. When most people think of modeling, this is what they think of. For many analytic projects, this is just a small part of what is required for a successful engagement.
The second aspect of analytics is what I am concerned with in this note. This is the aspect of analytics concerned with:
- developing an appropriate score for a statistical model;
- using the score to define useful actions;
- determining which measures are best for evaluating the effectiveness of these actions;
- tracking these measures (often with a dashboard) and making sure that that they advance the strategic objectives of the company or organization.
One way to remember this is using the mnemonic SAMS for Scores, Actions, Measures and Strategies.
For example, with a response model, often a threshold is used. If the score from the response model is above the threshold, an offer is made (this is the action); if not, no offer is made.
Here are some examples of SAMS:
|on-line response model||likelihood to respond to an offer||display the offer to the visitor that has the highest likelihood of response and available inventory||revenue per day generated by the web site||increase revenue from a website by improving targeting of offers|
|fraud model||likelihood that a transaction is fraudulent||approve, decline, or obtain more information||detection and false positive rates||reduce costs and improve customer experience by lowering fraud rates|
|data quality model||likelihood that a data source has data quality problems||if the score is above a threshold, manually investigate the data to check whether there is in fact a data quality problem||detection and false positive rates||improve operational efficiencies by detecting data quality problems more quickly|
A successful analytics projects requires a careful study of what actions are possible; of the possible actions, which can be deployed into operational systems; and, how the systems can be instrumented so that the data required to compute the required measures is available.
The organizational challenge when developing and deploying analytics is that four groups must work together to complete a successful analytic project:
- The IT group must provide the required data to build the model.
- The analytics group must build the appropriate models and develop the appropriate scores.
- The operations group must decide which actions are possible and how these actions can be integrated with current systems and business processes.
- An executive sponsor must make sure that the measures have strategic relevance and the three groups above collaborate effectively.

This wonderful first novel is about a guy who starts off with all the chips stacked against him and still comes out a winner. It's an underdog novel, and the underdog is a most satisfying hero, for more than any other protagonist, the underdog is the one we love to love. Perry L. Crandall, the underdog of "Lottery," is profoundly lovable.
Perry says he is "not retarded. You have to have an IQ number less than 75 to be retarded," he explains. "I read that in Reader's Digest. I am not. Mine is 76." This one-point distinction is important to Perry. The underdog, who is also sometimes cast as literature's knowing fool, has a corner on the truth, and Perry understands exactly how dangerous and wrong such labels can be. He doesn't like "retarded," but "slow" he can live with, and slow, as we know from the example of the tortoise (another version of the underdog), always wins the race.
All the familiar ingredients are in this novel: the slow guy with the heart of gold and the disquieting habit of seeing things (and people) for what they are, the unscrupulous family (see Cinderella's evil stepsisters), the unsuitable but loving friends with their steadfast loyalty and kindness. The antidote to the blurry smear of these cliches is a kind of winning particularity. Patricia Wood's portrait of Perry is so vivid and funny and poignant and joyful that it avoids the disappointing flatness of the predictable.
Abandoned by his parents at birth, Perry is raised by his fiercely loving, wisecracking grandmother in Everett, Wash. There isn't much money to go around, but they have a happy life governed by simple pleasures -- bingo, Friday night at the movies, Sunday night spaghetti -- and a sense of their own good fortune. The "L" in Perry L. Crandall, Gram tells him, stands for Lucky.
Gram knows what Perry needs. She makes him read the dictionary to arm him against the world, one word at a time, and she fills his head with useful advice: "Ignore him, Perry! He's a jerk! There are jerks all over. Everybody has jerks in their lives." Perry has a job at Holsted's Marine Supply, where he is watched over by Gary, who owns the place, and by his friend Keith, a swearing, alcoholic, downward-spiraling, shell-shocked Vietnam vet with a falling-apart truck and a leaky sailboat and a broken heart. Next to Perry himself, Keith is the novel's most bravura portrait. It's hard to make readers like a fat loudmouth with food stuck in his teeth and sinkhole breath, but Wood has done it. When Cherry, the tattooed princess of this fairy tale, falls in love with Keith, we buy it completely.
Gram dies early in the novel, leaving Perry as a young adult to the evil devices of his creepy mother and his sharky brothers and their harpy wives, who shortchange him in every way possible. "You're so goddamned suggestible," Gram had despaired. "Suggestible and honest! A terrible combination! Terrible! They'll take advantage of you." She was right, of course, as she was about most things, and Perry loses nearly everything before his luck finally turns.
When he wins $12 million in the Washington State Lottery, his awful relatives and plenty of strangers are on him like glue; suddenly, everybody wants to befriend him, and no one uses the word "retard" anymore. But an important element of the underdog novel is that the hero's intelligence be grounded in truth that pierces all the murk strewn by the pompous and self-serving jackasses of the world. Perry's study of life and language has taught him a lot: "A hoot is a thing that is much funnier after you're dead," for instance, and " Lingering is a word that means costing a lot of money to die." Perry may be slow, but his motives are absolutely good. He has the wisdom of Solomon and the heart of a lion, and his decision about what to do with his winnings, while it may not surprise readers, still feels satisfying.
Some bitter soul may complain about the novel's upbeat ending, but Wood seems to understand that such an ending need not be a dodge. Instead, it can reveal a path, one lit by the good intentions of a pure heart. Perry L. Crandall is the thinking man's guide to a happy life.

A few days ago, 3 Former Beauty Queens-Miss Ghana 2010-Stephanie Karikari, Miss Ghana 2015-Antoinette Delali Kemavor and Miss Ghana 2013-Giuseppina Nana Akua Baafi and 1 first-runner up-Margaret Kuma-Mintah came out to erect allegations that, Inna Patty and her Exclusive Events Ghana exploited them, embezzled funds they raised, verbally and physically abused some of them and even ‘PIMPED’ some of them out to men, in return for sponsorship deals.
In an exclusive interview with GhanaCelebrities.Com, Margaret Kuma-Mintah, 2013 Miss Ghana first runner-up cited the case of money they were made to raise which was to go to Korle-Bu Maternity ward but Inna Patty and her cronies, never donated to Korle-Bu.
Margaret recounted that, before the grand finale, all the 20 contestants were given letters (below) to help raise funds to make a donation to Korle-Bu’s maternity ward. She raised 6,000 GHS out of the 10,000 GHS target which was given, her other friend (another contestant) raised the whole 10,000 GHS and even though she cannot remember how much the others raised, they also raised something.
Yet, Inna Patty failed to make the said donation—claiming the money raised was not enough and therefore she was going to deposit the money into a Miss Ghana bank account. Inna Patty is said to have told the girls that after the final event, they would make the said donation—and Margaret says, this never happened and she does not know what Inna did with the monies they raised.
READ ALSO: CHRIS-VINCENT Writes: Miss America CEO, President & Board Members Have All RESIGNED Over Leaked Offensive Emails About Contestants—Yet Inna Patty & Her Cohorts Continue to Be At Post in Ghana
Following her allegation, GhanaCelebrites.Com made checks at Korle-Bu Teaching Hospital, to find out if the organizers of the Miss Ghana Beauty pageant have donated any of such monies raised to the hospital since they used the hospital’s name to solicit for the funds—and therefore, the funds should have come to them.
Shockingly, our checks at Korle-Bu Teaching Hospital has revealed that, they’ve not received any donations from Miss Ghana organisers since 2013—and the only donation they’ve ever received from them was for 250 GHS, before 2013, made to the Children Health Department.
The question therefore is; where did all the monies Inna Patty and her Exclusive Events Ghana raise through the 20 contestants in 2013, using Korle-Bu Teaching Hospital’s Maternity ward as the ground for their appeal as shown in the above letter go?
There’s also no public record of Inna Patty or her Exclusive Events Ghana making any donations to Korle-Bu Teaching Hospital.
It’s one thing to be alleged to be pimping out girls and exploiting them, but it’s unpardonable, even criminal, to embezzle charity funds.

As a society, we continuously contemplate the meaning of life. In trying to define the reason for being, we attempt to understand the purpose of our own lives. That said, how do you know your purpose?
Some believe that purpose can be derived fromchasing a passion. Oftentimes, people equate passion with activities they enjoy most. However, the most successful people do not limit their life’s purpose to activities that only bring pleasure. Their desire to accomplish something great is bigger than any inconvenience life presents. These achievements are made only through a high level of commitment, prevalent in the face of any pain or discomfort.
For example, Usain Bolt is the fastest man in the world. When he trains, he pushes himself so hard that he occasionally vomits during his workouts. Though far from pleasurable, the result for him is the ability to break world records in the 100 and 200-meter races. How many are able to say they are willing to endure that extreme in order to become the best at their passion?
Nowadays, many people pursue one aspiration after another. These changes can take place over the course of weeks, months, or years. Consider this: if your passion is your purpose, why would it change?
In other cases, people seek purpose by looking for signs. They wait for events to occur or people to show them the way. However, it would be fair to say that most people go to their grave without ever knowing their life’s goal.
Others may have witnessed a sign, but lacked the courage to pursue it. They reassure themselves saying, “it’s not the right time” or “I don’t have the money to fund my goals”. Some wander in circles, needing another sign to prove the first signal was in fact leading them toward their purpose.
Seeking purpose, to say the least, is a complex process. Perhaps it is complicated because we have made it that way. We are conditioned to wait for life’s purpose to do something to us. It is no wonder most go to the grave without knowing and experiencing their life’s purpose.
To be the best at something requires practice and preparation. In Malcolm Gladwell’s book, Outliers, he said those who mastered their craft did so because they practiced for 10,000 hours. That implies practicing in the face of good and bad days. There is no magic to it.
How do you know what to allocate 10,000 hours of practice to? That question may be key to finding one’s purpose. Perhaps feeling good or waiting for a sign can be a dead end street. Perhaps the only way to know one’s life purpose is to declare it. Instead of waiting for the right moment, take a stand and decide what your purpose will be.
If you say, your life purpose is to be a criminal lawyer, declare it and take action. Perhaps the only key to finding your purpose is right on the tip of your tongue. If you can stand for your own future to be who you say you want to be, you can announce it and practice and prepare to fulfill all the goals that come with that purpose. This approach would allow you to ‘live on purpose’, instead of ‘looking for a purpose’. What purpose will you declare for your life?
What do you think? I would love to hear your feedback. And I’m open to ideas. Or if you want to write me about a specific topic, let me know.

THE CHRISTMAS WISH
The Christmas Wish is a fairy tale set in 18th-century Norway. Stunning photographs illustrate this story of a little girl who wishes to become one of Santa's Elves. She skis out alone, and with the help of a succession of friendly animals, finds Santa Claus and the true meaning of Christmas.
Inspired by his native Norway and his snow loving daughter, Anja, award winning photographer Per Breiehagen created a series of striking images of Anja dressed in traditional Norwegian clothing and Sami reindeer shoes. The photos showed Anja interacting with reindeer and other Arctic animals. The response to these images on Per’s website was beyond expectations. People from all corners of the world wanted to see more.
Lori Evert, Anja’s mother, was so inspired by the beauty and magic of the cover image of Anja and the reindeer that she wrote a narrative about who they might be and why they were there. The family then created more pictures to illustrate the story.
The Christmas Wish, which began as a family Christmas card, has evolved into a beautifully crafted book for children and adults alike.

Wrapping up the year with some massing studies, and a revision to an earlier project. The main revision to last month’s project was adding in a landscaping plan, but there were also some tweaks to the architecture plus generating some additional views. I could not have pulled off this rendering without Vray for Blender, as the landscaping took quite a lot of computing power to generate in 3D.
This massing study was a quick conceptual project that needed a convincing representation of the existing building, but still keeping a loose feel. The illustration style allowed for reviewing a few variations of the concept without too much emphasis on the details. Here is the photo of the existing conditions, with two versions of the studies following.
This fall has been packed, with great projects all around. The first pair of images shows a proposed stone bridge that would be part of a new entrance road at a historic site. This rendering request came as a direct result of the success of my previous landscape project where I modeled a bridge and dam structure. I used Vray for Blender for this project as well, and I was very pleased with how the stonework came out in the 3D model.
I also had a few interior rendering projects. It seems most new floorplans are quite open, so there is a lot to show in terms of how the spaces flow from living room to dining room to kitchen and any connected outdoor spaces. I usually take several views to show the dynamic qualities of the spaces.
I’ve also been working on some larger scale developments. This next project is an exterior design of a multi-family residential complex that is being built in a location that requires city design review. I’ve been involved in generating 3D exterior views throughout the design and the review process. We are hopeful this will be the final iteration and the review process will be complete.
Last, but certainly not least, I’ve been working on a high-end mixed-use building project that included preparing a high-quality rendered walk-through of the lobby and the residential units. The following are some stills from the project, as well as a link to the marketing page where you can see the video. You can also view the video on my vimeo page.
I am continuing my transition to rendering in Vray for Blender coming from Vray for Sketchup. Here are two interior projects, the first one done in Vray for Sketchup, the second one is done in Vray for Blender. The biggest reason for the switch is the huge speed and render quality improvements in Vray 3.4, plus I have a large animation project coming up and I can only do that properly in Blender (The animation controls in Sketchup are practically non-existent.)
Vray for Sketchup interior renders
…and Vray for Blender interior renders
Between projects and vacations, I’ve had some time to get up to speed with the latest version of the V-ray rendering software and the Blender 3D modeling program. This pair of images are from a model I used both to produce images for a project, and as a way to test some of the neat new features of the software, Chief among them is a much faster rendering engine that cut my computer processing time by almost ten-fold!
This next pair was also rendered in Vray for Blender, used for an exterior scene.
These are some other marketing images I prepared recently. One is for new residential construction, and the other one is a facade renovation for a familiar local Charlottesville retail location.

CEO of Everguard, whose entrepreneurial skills have helped him develop teams, products, and new markets across technologies and industries.
While the concept of self-driving automobiles only gained popularity in the last few decades, the vision of a fully autonomous vehicle was first introduced at the World’s Fair in 1939 by industrialist Norman Bel Geddes. Geddes had a dream of “devices which will correct the faults of human beings as drivers,” according to his book Magic Motorways.
Unfortunately, Geddes was on to something. The tragic reality is that today, 94% of serious crashes are due to human error. That is why automakers and tech heavyweights have partnered to bring Geddes’ vision to life. If most serious crashes are due to human error, it only makes sense to eliminate the human component of driving by deploying fully autonomous vehicles. But how?
Applying Sensor Fusion And AI Technology To Maximize Safety
Sensor fusion is the process of combining data from multiple components to generate an output or action that is more accurate and reliable. Sensor fusion, paired with artificial intelligence (AI), gives autonomous vehicles the capabilities for static object detection, moving object detection and tracking, occupancy grid mapping, navigation, and more.
In autonomous vehicles, multiple sensors like cameras, radar, lidar and GPS are continually scanning, collecting and sending data to the main system to be analyzed. As the car moves, data is continuously updated with new inputs from the sensors as they feed the algorithms, or “brain,” of the system. Decisions are made almost instantaneously based on the data the system receives.
For example, a camera placed at the front of the vehicle views a yellow light, but it cannot capture the depth of the object. But when paired with a sensor that has radar capabilities, additional details are delivered on the approximate distance of the light ahead. The system can then make an intelligent decision to continue at the current speed or brake based on the data it receives. These multiple input devices allow AI to take various pieces of data into account and use them to make more reliable and precise decisions.
As the former president of Netradyne, I saw firsthand the power of sensor fusion when used with vehicles, specifically commercial fleets. Now, as the CEO of Everguard, I’ve witnessed how sensor fusion-based AI can transform safety in the workplace.
Driving Changes In The Industrial Workplace
Imagine applying that same ability to sense, process and respond proactively to data from sensor fusion technology via AI in another unpredictable environment: the industrial workplace. Like a car on the highway, workers on a construction site, in a warehouse or on the factory floor face ever-changing conditions. And like driving a car, most workplace injuries and fatalities are the result of human error. Just as sensor fusion-fed AI in autonomous vehicles can help keep drivers safe, for the first time, the same technology allows industrial environments to provide proactive methods for preventing accidents.
Think of a shipping bay equipped with racks, cranes and forklifts. Add to that a mix of hardware, software, wearable devices and other sensors. Workers move through the facility as machinery and mobile equipment hum along. A sensor attached to a forklift continuously sends data to an AI system to tell it when and where the forklift is moving. A camera views a worker — outfitted with a wearable — moving toward the path of the forklift. Both data inputs are simultaneously sent to the system and instantly analyzed. In under one second, an alert is sent to the worker before they reach the danger area in the path of the forklift. The forklift driver might also receive an alert to slow movement to avoid an injury — or worse.
Imagine, in this same facility, an overhead crane with sensors surrounding it at four points to create a geofence. The geofence is essentially an invisible barrier that prevents injuries by keeping employees a safe distance from loads carried overhead. A camera in the area views a worker headed in the direction of the geofence. At the same time, a sensor with location capabilities detects the distance narrowing between the worker and the geofence. This data is processed by AI algorithms, which make the intelligent decision that a risk is present, should the worker continue moving toward the crane. The system instantly sends an alert via a wearable to warn the worker of the danger ahead.
Advancements in the autonomous vehicle industry to overcome the faults of human error are changing how we think about safety not only on the road, but also in the other sectors. With the help of sensor fusion-powered AI technology, industrial workplaces can now be proactive in preventing accidents, instead of implementing reactive methods after the fact.

The signature moment of Floyd Collins occurs soon after the musical begins, when Floyd discovers the place that the media will subsequently name Sand Cave. Transported by dreams of curio shops, lines of tourists, and money, money, money for his family, Floyd sings "The Call," an extraordinary concept by songwriter Adam Guettel. Part wonder, part jubilation, and part triumphant capitalist greed, the song crests in a nonverbal call that is close to a yodel, Floyd flinging out his voice into the vast pitch-black void of his discovery. With multiple echoes bouncing back, the song becomes a cavernous fugue before it finally subsides into foreboding silence.
Thinking he had struck it rich, Collins had actually dug his own grave. On his way back to the surface, Collins is trapped. Friends and family are able to locate Floyd by the sound of his voice, but only Skeets Miller, a diminutive cub reporter for the Louisville Courier-Journal, is able to reach him. Skeets' reporting in 1929 won him the Pulitzer Prize, sparking an influx of curiosity seekers at his Kentucky home and a media frenzy that spread to newspapers and radio nationwide.
Carolina Actors Studio Theatre not only presents a handsome Charlotte premiere of the 1996 Obie Award-winning musical score, it's providing an afterlife for a recent Schiele Museum exhibit on caves in its lobby. Ushers in miner hard hats will whisk you into the lobby between acts, but for a full immersion in CAST's experiential theater, consider arriving early — there's more info on caves to ingest than a mere intermission allows.
Thanks to Dee Blackburn's boldly conceived set design, there are wonders to behold inside the theater as well. A truckload of recycled newspapers, imported from Shelby, has been turned into a mighty two-story evocation of the cave Floyd discovered, the Collinses' Kentucky hometown, and the hillside overlooking the shaft where Floyd lies trapped. Up high on the hill, you can espy musical director John Coffey over the ridge at the keyboard, leading a capable sextet in CAST's first-ever musical.
To tell the truth, I was too mesmerized by the whole spectacle to investigate how the singers were getting their musical cues from Coffey, who is behind or alongside them. But I did marvel at the precision of those electronic echoes each time they were cued, a testament to the teamwork, I'm supposing, of Coffey, sound designer Sean Kimbro, technical designer Mike Snow, and musical coordinator Parker Foley.
With a first-rate cast directed by Michael R. Simmons, CAST is definitely ready for this first foray into song. Jonathan Elliott Coarsey masters all the musical difficulties — and endurance challenges — of playing Floyd in a performance that eclipses his portrayal of the American champion in last summer's Chess. After his delightful outing as the sickly boy in The Borrowers, Daniel O'Sullivan matures slightly as the picayune Skeets. I was constantly charmed by Barbara Wesselman's quaint costume designs, but Skeets' deer-stalking suit was a special favorite.
Saddled with an inert protagonist, Tina Landau contrives to put Floyd on his feet in dream sequences as well as the obligatory apotheosis, but supporting roles mostly have a circumscribed set of motives as Floyd squirms helplessly at the vortex of the media storm. They're either attempting to locate and rescue our hero, pining for his return, or avidly gathering gossip. Media types like me fall into the last category.
Shining under these constraints are Holly Cenzer as Floyd's sister Nellie, Chaz Pofahl as his brother Homer, and Paula Baldwin as his stepmother Miss Jane. Welcome infusions of villainy are doled out to Floyd's papa Lee, stolidly — and selfishly — rendered by Lou Dalessandro, and the bullying director of a rock and asphalt company who fancies himself Floyd's savior. Devin Gilbert smugly captures that self-serving bastard. Jack Marble and Ted Delorme ably supply the comic bits.
