Stocks quoted in this article:
Two equities generating buzz on StockTwits today are retailer J.C. Penney Company, Inc. (NYSE:JCP) and streaming music provider Pandora Media Inc (NYSE:P). Meanwhile, financial firm Bank of America Corp (NYSE:BAC) is also garnering notable attention in the options pits. Here's a look at how traders have been aligning their speculative bets today.
- J.C. Penney Company, Inc. (NYSE:JCP) is up another 4.8% today at $8.70, bringing its month-to-date gain to nearly 20%. As such, option traders are once again circling JCP, with calls trading at a slightly faster-than-usual clip. Digging deeper, some speculators are rolling the dice on more short-term upside for the shares, buying to open the weekly 3/14 9-strike calls. By purchasing the calls to open, the traders expect JCP to surmount $9 -- a level the stock hasn't closed north of in 2014 -- by next Friday's close, when the contracts expire.
- Pandora Media Inc (NYSE:P) is down 4.4% at $37.72, despite announcing market-share growth in February. Option players are scrambling to place bets on the stock's short-term trajectory; intraday option volume is running at nearly three times the norm, with nine of the 10 most active contracts expiring within the next 11 sessions. Option bulls have centered on the weekly 3/7 37.50-strike call, while bears have honed in on the weekly 3/7 36-strike put -- both of which have seen buy-to-open activity today.
- Finally, Bank of America Corp (NYSE:BAC) is flirting with a 1.3% lead at $17.48, after notching a near-four-year high of $17.63 earlier in the session. The shares have added 12.3% so far in 2014, and traders are wagering on even higher highs for BAC. So far today, roughly 324,000 calls have crossed the tape -- more than three times the norm. For comparison, just 100,000 BAC puts have changed hands. Upon closer inspection, it appears bulls are buying to open the weekly 3/7 17.50-strike call and the April 18 call, both of which have seen more than 23,000 contracts exchanged. On the fundamental front, the company began offering a checkless, no-overdraft checking account for a set monthly fee, in hopes of creating a consistent stream of revenue.


Vancouver: Snowfall and winter storm warnings remain posted for British Columbia’s inner south coast as Environment Canada warns some areas are being walloped harder than others.
The weather office says the Fraser Valley could see another 10 to 15 centimetres of snow before the latest storm passes on Tuesday.
Freezing rain is also possible for the Chilliwack and Abbotsford areas.
Although the storm still grips the Fraser Valley, forecasters say snow should change to rain within hours over Metro Vancouver, the Sunshine Coast and parts of eastern and inland Vancouver Island.
But, depending on elevation and temperature, the weather office says those regions could see another 10 centimetres of snow before the rain arrives.
Heavy snowfall on Vancouver Island forced Canada Post to suspend deliveries in Chemainus, Cobble Hill, Duncan, Mill Bay, Pender Island and Shawnigan Lake.
The postal service also warned of delays in multiple communities including Campbell River, Courtenay, Ladysmith, Nanaimo, Parksville and Port Alberni, and it asked residents to clear snow and ice from walkways.
A special air quality statement linked to high concentrations of fine particulate matter over the central Interior cities of Prince George, Quesnel and Vanderhoof has also been issued.
Environment Canada says those with chronic conditions such as asthma or heart disease, or illnesses such as COVID-19 should limit exposure and avoid strenuous activity.

Digital technology is a defining feature of modern life. In 2016, there were 3.4 billion internet users and 3.8 billion unique mobile users. On average, people spend six hours a day online.
This may be just the beginning. New ways to plug into digital life – such as virtual reality and the internet of things – are arriving quickly, and promise a whole new level of sophistication: the race is on to teach software how to read our emotions, anticipate our actions and make decisions on our behalf. As such tools become increasingly embedded in daily life, people will need to trust the technologies and the companies behind them more than ever before.
This year, the Edelman Trust Barometer, an annual survey that measures global levels of trust in institutions, revealed the steepest drop ever seen in the public’s trust in governments, businesses, media and NGOs.

Divinity: Original Sin 2 Heading to XBox One and PS4 in August
Ron Perillo / 3 years ago
RPG Console Players Rejoice! Divinity: Original Sin 2 is Here
Larian Studios’ best-selling PC Role-playing Game Divinity: Original Sin 2 is finally heading to consoles soon. Specifically, Sony PlayStation 4 and Microsoft XBox One gamers will be able to play it in their systems. The PC version originally launched over 7 months ago on Steam. It sold over a million copies already by November 2017, and is the recipient of many “Game of the Year” nominations.
Original Sin 2 will support two players in split-screen as well as four players online. The menu and controls also get console optimizations. Furthermore, there are more features and updates to be announced. “There will be plenty of improvements like we did for the Enhanced Edition of Divinity: Original Sin 1 on PS4 and Xbox One” says Larian Studios founder Swen Vincke.
What About the Nintendo Switch?
Unfortunately for Switch users, only the XBox One and PlayStation 4 are in the running. At least for now. Considering games like Doom and Dark Souls 3 have ports, fans can only hope. Larian Studios themselves are doing the ports in-house, although distribution is by Bandai Namco. Both physical and digital copies of the game are available on August 2018.

The choice between ergonomic office chairs and traditional chairs can greatly impact productivity, health, and overall well-being. In this article, we will delve into the key differences between ergonomic office chairs and traditional chairs, exploring the reasons why investing in comfort is not just a luxury but a strategic decision for individuals and businesses alike.
I. Understanding Ergonomic Office Chairs:
Ergonomic office chairs are designed with the human body's biomechanics in mind. These chairs are crafted to provide optimal support to the spine, promote good posture, and reduce the risk of musculoskeletal issues associated with prolonged sitting. Here are some key features that distinguish ergonomic office chairs:
Ergonomic chairs come with a range of adjustable features, including seat height, lumbar support, armrests, and recline options. This adaptability allows users to customize the chair to their specific body dimensions and preferences, ensuring a comfortable and supportive seating experience.
Proper lumbar support is crucial for maintaining the natural curve of the spine. Ergonomic chairs typically feature adjustable lumbar support, providing targeted support to the lower back and preventing slouching, a common issue with traditional chairs.
Ergonomic chairs are designed to promote a neutral sitting position, helping users maintain good posture throughout the day. This not only reduces the risk of back pain but also enhances overall comfort and concentration.
Many ergonomic chairs are constructed using breathable materials that promote air circulation, preventing discomfort and sweat buildup during extended periods of sitting.
II. The Pitfalls of Traditional Chairs:
While traditional chairs may be aesthetically pleasing or budget-friendly, they often lack the ergonomic features necessary for prolonged comfort and health. Here are some shortcomings of traditional chairs:
Traditional chairs typically offer limited adjustability, if any at all. This one-size-fits-all approach can lead to discomfort, especially for individuals with different body types and preferences.
Poor Lumbar Support:
The majority of traditional chairs lack adequate lumbar support, which can result in poor posture and contribute to back pain over time. The absence of targeted lower back support is a significant drawback for those who spend long hours at a desk.
Traditional chairs are often designed with a fixed structure that does not adapt to the natural movements of the body. This static design can lead to stiffness, discomfort, and reduced circulation during extended periods of sitting.
Impact on Productivity:
Discomfort caused by traditional chairs can have a direct impact on productivity. Employees who are uncomfortable are more likely to take frequent breaks or experience distractions, hindering their ability to focus on tasks.
III. Health Benefits of Ergonomic Chairs:
Investing in ergonomic office chairs goes beyond mere comfort; it directly contributes to the long-term health and well-being of individuals. Here are some health benefits associated with using ergonomic chairs:
Prevention of Musculoskeletal Issues:
Ergonomic chairs are designed to reduce the risk of musculoskeletal problems such as back pain, neck strain, and shoulder discomfort. By promoting proper alignment and support, these chairs help prevent the development of chronic conditions associated with poor posture.
The ergonomic design of these chairs often includes features that enhance blood circulation. Proper circulation is essential for reducing the risk of numbness, tingling, and long-term health issues related to poor blood flow.
Enhanced Focus and Productivity:
Comfortable seating positively impacts concentration and productivity. Ergonomic chairs enable individuals to maintain focus for longer periods, reducing the need for frequent breaks and distractions.
Prolonged sitting in traditional chairs can lead to fatigue and discomfort. Ergonomic chairs, with their adjustable features and supportive design, help reduce physical strain, keeping individuals energized and focused throughout the workday.
IV. Business Considerations:
For businesses, the choice between ergonomic office chairs and traditional chairs is not merely about employee comfort—it's a strategic investment in the company's success. Here's why businesses should prioritize ergonomic seating:
Employee Retention and Satisfaction:
Providing ergonomic chairs signals to employees that their well-being is a priority for the company. This can contribute to higher job satisfaction, employee retention, and a positive workplace culture.
Reduced Healthcare Costs:
Ergonomic chairs can contribute to a healthier workforce, reducing the likelihood of employees developing musculoskeletal issues that may lead to costly medical treatments and absenteeism.
Comfortable employees are more likely to be focused and productive. By investing in ergonomic seating, businesses can enhance employee performance and contribute to the overall success of the organization.
Demonstrating Corporate Responsibility:
Companies that prioritize the health and comfort of their employees demonstrate a commitment to corporate responsibility. This can enhance the company's reputation, making it an attractive workplace for top talent.
V. Making the Switch: Tips for Transitioning to Ergonomic Chairs:
For individuals or businesses considering the switch to ergonomic office chairs, here are some tips for a smooth transition:
Provide information and training on the benefits of ergonomic seating. Educate employees on how to adjust their chairs for optimal comfort and encourage them to take advantage of the available features.
If budget constraints are a concern, consider a phased approach to implementing ergonomic chairs. Start with key areas or departments and gradually expand the transition over time.
Offer employees the opportunity to try out ergonomic chairs on a trial basis. This allows individuals to experience the benefits firsthand and provides valuable feedback for fine-tuning the selection process.
Consultation with Ergonomic Experts:
Consider consulting with ergonomic experts or occupational health professionals to ensure that the chosen chairs meet the specific needs of the workforce. Their insights can help tailor the selection to the unique requirements of the individuals using the chairs.
In the ongoing debate between ergonomic office chairs and traditional chairs, the evidence overwhelmingly supports the benefits of investing in comfort. Ergonomic chairs go beyond mere aesthetics, offering a range of features that contribute to the health, well-being, and productivity of individuals in a professional setting.
As the understanding of the impact of sedentary work on health continues to grow, the choice of seating becomes increasingly critical. Whether for personal use or within a corporate environment, the decision to invest in ergonomic office chairs is an investment in the long-term success and happiness of individuals and the organizations they contribute to. In the ever-evolving landscape of the modern workplace, comfort is not just a luxury—it's a strategic necessity.

The Christian Church as a whole, a body of which the Church of England is one branch, has held a consistent position with regard to sexual ethics over the past two millennia, with a remarkable degree of unanimity. That is, marriage is defined as an exclusive, permanent union between one man and one woman, and that sexual activity outside this union cannot be considered holy. The Church has always sought to uphold this principle while at the same time applying appropriate pastoral practice at the local level, both where the principle has been breached “through weakness and through deliberate fault”, and where men and women despite temptation aim to conform their lives to the historic understanding of Christ’s teaching in this area. But the principle of Christian marriage, deriving from the clear teaching of Scripture, Church tradition, and fellowship with the worldwide body of Christ, cannot be overturned or redefined without a serious fracture in the church today, and a severance from what ties us to authentic Christian faith.
In view of this, Anglican Mainstream, representing the views of many faithful members of the Church of England, lay and ordained, views with dismay the recent statement by Changing Attitude, urging the House of Bishops to rescind the February Statement on marriage, and to allow couples in same sex relationships, especially clergy, to marry, and be blessed in church.
The Changing Attitude statement is unhelpful and should be politely rejected, for the following reasons:
a) the Shared Conversations of Sexuality, Scripture and Mission are about to begin, and the process will last more than two years. After the conversations are over, motions and resolutions can be put before Synod by those on different sides of the argument, and debated. The Bishops have no authority to make the kind of changes demanded by Changing Attitude before this time. In the meantime, Bishops have responsibility to promote and defend the teaching of the Church, and should not be bullied by lobby groups to do otherwise.

.458 SOCOM (.458) 350gr RS
Berry's Superior Plated Bullets® are the best copper-jacketed bullets currently on the market. They are made with a swaged lead core that is electroplated with copper to achieve their final weight without any lead exposure. They are then re-struck according to exact specifications, resulting in a firm bond and reliable consistency in each round. These bullets are both indoor range safe and incredibly precise, making them a preferred selection for shooters worldwide.
About .458 SOCOM Ammo
The .458 SOCOM is a large caliber rifle cartridge designed for the M4 and AR 15 platform. However, there are some bolt-action rifles or lever-action rifles in this caliber. The round was invented by Marty ter Weeme of Teppo Jutsu back in 2000 as a response to the lack of effectiveness of 5.56 ammo for members of Task Force Ranger in Operation Gothic Serpent in Somalia. Despite its original intended use, the round was never officially adopted by any military.
However, a 458 SOCOM bullet works fantastically for hunting, especially medium to large game like deer, elk, or even bears in a self-defense situation. Target shooters and plinkers also report exceptional accuracy from the 458 SOCOM cartridge, leading to the round becoming rather popular amongst recreational users.
.458 SOCOM Performance Breakdown
The cartridge was based on the 50 AE with a lengthened case and reduced rim diameter. The .458 SOCOM is one of the largest rounds engineered for the M4 or AR 15 platform.
Diameter: .458 inches
Total Capacity: 61.1 gr+H2O
Primer Type: Large Pistol
Maximum PSI: 35,000 PSI
The .458 SOCOM round has recoil that has been described as stout, but not unmanageable.
This is a high power round delivering 2,243 ft-lbs of energy when fired. This more than enough to take down your targets.
**THIS IS NOT LOADED AMMUNITION**
**UNABLE TO SHIP THE PRODUCT TO THE STATE OF MASSACHUSETTS**
Bullet O.A.L.: .899"
Cartridge Name: 458 Socom
Cartridge O.A.L.: 1.985
Max Velocity: 2000 fps
- Load data for our Superior Plated Bullets® can be found in any manual or on any powder manufacturer’s website.

Rust diseases present in Indiana wheat
click image to zoomPicture courtesy Greg ShanerFigure 1. Stripe rust on wheat. Stripe rust and leaf rust have been confirmed by crop consultants at low levels in several wheat fields in far southern Indiana, near Gibson County. Producers should be aware of these diseases and scout fields to determine if rusts are present, and at levels that may warrant fungicide application.
The diseases can be differentiated by the color and pattern of the pustules on the leaves. The fungus that causes stripe rust (Puccinia striformis) produces a yellowish or orange spore, and pustules appear in a row on infected leaves, giving it a “striped” appearance (Figure 1). Leaves infected by the fungus that causes leaf rust (Puccinia triticina) have brownish pustules that are scattered on the leaf (Figure 2). Purdue Extension Bulletin BP-79-W, “Identifying Rust Diseases of Wheat and Barley” is available to aid in diagnosis of these diseases, and can be found at the following link: <https://mdc.itap.purdue.edu/item.asp?itemID=19349>.
click image to zoomFigure 2. Leaf rust on wheat. Both rust fungi prefer humid, wet weather and moderate temperatures to infect wheat and develop disease. However, the stripe rust fungus can infect under cooler conditions, which may be problematic in Indiana wheat fields with the recent weather. Each disease has the capacity to cause yield loss if infections occur prior to heading and environmental conditions favor disease development and spread.
Fungicides are available to manage both leaf and stripe rust. Products and their ratings for efficacy against rusts are listed in the following table, developed by the North Central Regional Committee on Management of Small Grain Diseases or NCERA-184 committee: <http://www.ppdl.purdue.edu/ppdl/wise/NCERA_184_Wheat_fungicide_table_2012.pdf>.
The decision to apply a fungicide should depend on crop growth stage, application cost, and weather conditions prior to application.

In the upcoming Era, A man moving from one place to another can control his electronic devices remotely from anywhere with the help of machine sensors, and to justify all such things in the future
we need IoT, which is called as Internet of Things.
Also, In the past several years, the Internet has been flooded with huge amounts of data from Social Media, E-mails, Digital Payments,
and much more which are collected and processed as per the requirement of the Internet, that process is called Big Data Analytics.
For most people, both things sound similar, In contrast, they play significantly different roles in Data management. Moving further, we have collected a bundle of points where they have separate areas to work on.
- IoT refers to the interconnectivity of physical devices, while Big Data refers to the vast amounts of data generated by these devices.
- IoT enables the collection and transmission of real-time data, while Big Data involves the processing and analyzing large amounts of data to identify trends and patterns.
- IoT is used in various industries, including healthcare and manufacturing, while Big Data is used for predictive analytics and business intelligence.
IoT vs Big Data
IoT (Internet of Things) refers to the network of physical objects or devices that are connected to the Internet, allowing them to collect and exchange data. Big Data refers to extremely large and complex datasets that cannot be processed using traditional data processing methods.
IoT (Internet of Things) means globally connected machines or internet devices that support data collection and exchange.
In Layman’s language, a device that aggregates and stores data over the internet is termed IoT, also defined as a huge collection of digital data that vary.
Big Data though seems similar to IoT, but the daily collection of data over the internet related to weather, payments, stock market, photos, videos, GPS Maps, and more, this mass data is prominently called Big Data.
This huge amount of data requires modern technologies to process, which is done with the help of Big Data Analytics software.
|Parameters of Comparison||IoT (Internet of Things)||Big Data|
|Concept||The concept of IoT is to design smart machinery to exchange human intermediaries by creating an interconnection between devices.||The Concept of Big data is to dig out the latest data, news, or content that helps in decision making.|
|Real-Time Data||To make effective decisions IoT utilizes real-time data to collect, process, and analyze.||Processing of Big Data is not done in real-time. Data is collected first and then analyzed after a gap.|
|Purpose||The purpose of IoT is to detect and correct the Issues being in assets.||In Big Data analyses we find out the root cause behind the problem from the existing abundance of data.|
|Data Sources||IoT Collect and Process Machine-generated data aggregated and compressed by sensors like Steam Iron.||Big Data Process Human-generated data like E-mail, social media, and more as people upload.|
|Basis of Results||In the case of IoT, one must be able to understand the information collected through machine sensors for the right output.||Big Data Analytics uses Statistical formats to generate results from a huge quantity of data.|
What is IoT?
The term IoT (Internet of Things) refers to the interconnection of devices to track and monitor them remotely over the internet with the help of big data to assess the current position of the device to control it in a real-time manner.
It’s a strong element that sensor machinery positions and commands it to function accordingly.
IoT is all about data, devices, and connectivity, where all the devices are digitally connected to perform and function over a single command. It requires a very accurate analytics model to provide absolute output logically.
In the case of IoT, results matter a lot as they must be specific to what is happening with a particular device or equipment.
Irrespective of the correct output, the results provided by the IoT mechanism should be explainable as to why the output is correct. In the last few years,
IoT has taken a very important place in human life as all physical objects in our surroundings have a sensor connection over the internet to coordinate devices in such a manner to make our daily life smooth and easy.
This digital era is embedded with IoT-based devices for our regular use, where the interconnection of these devices leads to solving various problems of human life.
It uses artificial intelligence deployed in machines and other devices for data transmission over the web mode by collecting data and processing it for immediate output over command.
It is important for the automation of web-based businesses and the growth of such digital businesses globally.
What is Big Data?
The term Big Data refers to the study of a large amount of data which is mostly unstructured here, we mean the data which doesn’t have any specific format or standards.
This data software process and analyze data from the sources like payment portals, LinkedIn, Facebook, Twitter, etc.
Since such a huge amount of data cannot be helpful for anyone until it is in a structured form to research, Big Data Analytics stores and extracts data to provide a structured output that helps people resolve their problems cost-effectively and quickly.
IoT utilizes the Output of Big Data in a real-time manner as an input for the study of object sensors of electronic devices. 3 types of data are managed and safely stored by Big Data software Unstructured,
Semi-Structured or Structured.
These types of data sets cannot be processed and analyzed with ancient systems of data management as huge files of Excel, PPT, chat history, and call recordings are not easy to procure.
The increasing variety and velocity of data are produced every minute with an endless flow, this large volume of data is required by businesses globally to expand their business which requires Big Data Analytics.
Main Differences Between IoT and Big Data

Actor Bob Hoskins has revealed that he was forced to do his own fight scenes for a BBC1 drama – because programme-makers sent a stuntman who was a foot taller than him.
The Hollywood star measures in at just 5ft 6in but production staff for his one-off appearance in The Street inadvertently arranged for a giant stand-in who towered above him.
In the programme – to be screened on Monday July 13 – he stars as a pub landlord who gets involved in a brawl with a local gangster.
Hoskins, whose Hollywood roles have included Who Framed Roger Rabbit?, said: “You could say I’ve done a few fight scenes in my time, but this one was quite tough. I wound up doing my own stunts because, when the stuntman turned up, he was 6ft 6in.
“Then the director said he wanted it really violent. I know how to act – it’s getting bashed up that’s not such fun.”
He stars alongside old friend Frances Barber, who plays his wife, Lizzie.
“We’ve known each other for ages through a mutual friend, Derek Jacobi, who used to be my next-door neighbour,” said Hoskins.
“Frances and I have wanted to work together for years, and now we finally have the opportunity.”
