In this respect they are like the ivy

His friends were those of his own blood or those whom he had known the longest; his affections, like ivy

Methinks there's a genius Roams in the mountains, Girdled with ivy
And robed in wisteria, Lips ever smiling, Of noble demeanour, Driving the yellow pard, Tiger-attended, Couched in a chariot With banners of cassia, Cloaked with the orchid, And crowned with azaleas; Culling the perfume Of sweet flowers, he leaves In the heart a dream-blossom, Memory haunting.
This room was carpeted, and therein was a piano, a couch, a chiffonniere--above all, it contained a lofty window with a crimson curtain, which, being undrawn, afforded another glimpse of the garden, through the large, clear panes, round which some leaves of ivy

No rays from the holy heaven come down On the long night-time of that town; But light from out the lurid sea Streams up the turrets silently - Gleams up the pinnacles far and free - Up domes - up spires - up kingly halls - Up fanes - up Babylon-like walls - Up shadowy long-forgotten bowers Of scultured ivy
and stone flowers - Up many and many a marvellous shrine Whose wreathed friezes intertwine The viol, the violet, and the vine.

The anticipation of anything is either better or worse than the actual thing when it happens.
Most often we anticipate the worst, it’s a default setting. And I mean the very worst that our minds can conjure up. The anticipation will last until we do the thing, and that can mean a lifetime of anticipation and pain.
Perhaps, it’s better to enjoy what we have now and stop anticipating more or simply to do the things we fear now. This way we cut out all the pain of anticipating something painful that most often is not.
A lifetime filled with anticipation is often a lifetime filled with fear and pain.
The final thing to consider, if we have to anticipate, then anticipate only good things. It’s a choice we can make.

Well, sorry for insulting you Thomas. I was just trying to be helpful. Most of the MN12 guys here that are really into performance are V8 guys. I therefore thought you were talking about the 5.4, I honestly didn't consider the 4.2 V6, but that's because nearly every F-150 I've ever seen has the Triton. I read your posts and what I thought was common knowledge, I guess is not. I was simply letting you know that the "double cowl" is the Cobra cowl. Wasn't trying to be smart or funny or insulting, but just trying to be helpful.
Besides on top of that. how was I supposed to know that you're not new to these cars? Hell, I don't even know what year or what model you have! My car is obvious, its in my sig. My ET sucks there because I was trying to learn to launch the car. I've only had mine since Feb 2002 so I have no troubles admitting that I'm new to these cars, but not cars in general. But I have been assembling a fair knowledge base on all model years of MN12s, just because I love them now that I've begun to learn about them.
I tried to give you credit, and tried to be as informative and nice as I could. Hence the way I started my post, because I was afraid of coming across as insulting. I guess me thinking you're new to these cars is just like you assuming I'm an ******* because you found my help insulting.
Well forgive me for trying to help someone out. geez.
I didn't see anywhere in the post about who manufactured the hood in the photo. Where did you get it? I need a hood to go over Cobra motor I am putting in my '96 T-Bird. Have you done a fit check on your car yet? Would you recommend this hood to others?
AverageJoe, Sorry for me being a dumbass. I guess I just get deffensive sometimes. I've found it happens when guys talk about cars. So sorry. There are actually beginning to be several poeple who have and are putting 4.2 in their t-birds. Sounds exciting to me. But I've also been thinking about a mark VIII engine also. There are a couple for sale on a post I saw somewhere around here or on SCCOA he has like 3 markVIII engine w/ all accessories and is selling them. Also there is a junk yard local to me that just about a week ago got in a markVIII, rear ended. So I'm guessing the engines good. I'll look into that too. All I know is I want something fast under my hood. But anyway, sorry for being an ***.
Anyways, Hey john strode...the cobra motor doesn't fit under the regular Mustang hood...let alone a stock MN12 hood. Remember the first year they put the DOHC in the Cobra? The hood featured two fake scoops and a big ole bump in the middle to clear the intake.
By the way, Hey john strode...have you fixed your door hinge on your Cougar yet? Are ya ready to do mine? I am going back to school in less than a week, so we are going to have to get together again the next time i come back home.

I’m gonna let you in on a little slice of my real-food-blogger-life for a sec:
After a LONG day of testing fancy recipes and making said recipes look EXTRA fancy and supppppper yummy and pretty, I usually don’t actually FEEL like eating fancy “grown up” food like a bowl of vegan coconut curry with sweet potato noodles or low carb whole30 paleo salmon cakes, or something like that.
I meannnnnn, I’m not over here wasting food or anything, so we DO eat whatever I made that day for dinner but, if I have an “off day” my food clothes look something like this:
- Breakfast: Easy Cinnamon Roll Gluten Free Low Carb Keto Protein Pancakes
- Snack: Nut butter on crackers (lately it’s been this crazy amazing cookie dough almond butter recipe)

You know I’m not wrong.
- Dinner: PB & J toast with some random protein source that I find lurking in the back of the fridge.
- Bedtime snack: THIS healthy protein powder cookie dough.
So, basically, my inner soul longs to eat like a 5 year old. NOT MAD ABOUT IT.

What kind of protein powder do you use to make healthy protein powder cookie dough?
You can use whey protein OR plant-based protein! Just keep in mind the plant-based proteins are much less absorbent, so you may need less applesauce, and to skip the almond milk. Go by FEEEEEL.
Don’t lie. You know EXACTLY what raw cookie dough should feel like.
I personally think you should RESIST the EXTRME urge to eat this RIGHT AWAY and let this cookie dough chill for at least 5 minutes in the fridge, before you shovel it into your cookie-monster face.
It reallllly gives it that AUTHENTIC chocolate chip cookie dough “believability” if you know what I mean.

Apparently the saying "a bird in the hand is worth two in the bush" dates as far back as 1450, and in the property industry, it often occurs to me that it's a good mantra to live by.
The value of a property can be affected by so many variables including planning, politics and economic conditions; all of which are almost entirely out of a seller's control. With that in mind it's very often the case that the highest offer is not necessarily the best offer.
We were instructed as joint agents in the marketing of an industrial site in late 2016, and at the time we only sought unconditional offers from buyers with a proven track record. This was a prime site; allocated in the local masterplan and of a sufficient size to attract the big name developers. We guided at £12M, and received several cash offers in excess of £14M.
Despite having the joint representation of two long established local agents, the seller had been entertaining interest for years, and ignoring his own mandate for an unconditional sale, instructed us to accept a conditional deal at £16.7M.
Suffice to say it took over a year to exchange contracts, another 18 months for a planning application to be submitted and even after a further 12 months of negotiation and deliberation, there was still no light at the end of the tunnel. Fast forward to Spring 2020 and the business had closed, and the contract was heading towards expiration. With seemingly little other option, the seller sold unconditionally at £10.7M.
Not an inconsiderable amount of money, but how does that saying go again?...

Easter Bunny iced cookies
- 3 cups (450g) plain flour
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1 cup (250g) butter, softened
- 1 1/3 cups (300g) caster sugar
- 2 eggs
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 quantity Royal icing
You will also need:
- bunny cookie cutter
- resealable bags
- decorations (confetti and love hearts)
Step 1. Preheat oven to 180°C (160°C fan-forced). Line two baking trays with baking paper and set aside. Sift flour and baking powder together.
Step 2. Using a mixer, beat butter until pale and creamy. With the mixer running, add sugar and then eggs one at a time. Add vanilla and then flour, mixing until the flour is just combined. Divide mixture into two discs and refrigerate for 20 mins. Roll out on a floured board to around 4mm thick. Cut bunny shapes out with the cookie cutter, taking care to dip the cutter into flour between each cut. Work as quickly as possible because this mixture needs to be firm to make clean cuts. Bake for 7- 10 minutes and remove from oven when still pale. Cool on a wire rack.
Step 3. Prepare a quantity of Royal icing and place into a resealable bag. Snip the tip with a very small opening and pipe around the very edge of each bunny cookie.
Step 4. Remove the remaining icing from the bag and stir in 1-2 tbsp of water. Place into a resealable bag and snip the end. Now fill inside the previous line that you have piped to fill in the blank area. Use a toothpick or skewer to help the mixture join together so you have no gaps. While the icing is still drying you can place on the decorations for the bunny nose and waistcoat buttons. Leave to dry for 2 hours or overnight until the icing has hardened. Store in an airtight container.

You might be surprised to learn that study abroad programs have evolved into so much more than just living, eating and breathing in a foreign country. In this week’s Monday Manday, we’ll tell you about one man’s study abroad experience that focused on affecting the lives of entrepreneurs in South Africa.
Many people dream of living in another country, immersing themselves in a different culture, language, food and people, but that dream gets harder to achieve as you get older and have more responsibilities. It’s no surprise then that studying abroad is among the most popular activities for college students, with some heading overseas multiple times to different locations.
After completing a semester in London, YSN member Sterling Proffer (screen name: sterlingproffer) spent six weeks this summer in The Entrepreneurship Exchange Program with South Africa (EESA) through Syracuse University. Facilitated through Stellenbosch University in South Africa, international student groups help disadvantaged entrepreneurs in the Black townships near Cape Town with businesses ranging from arts and crafts to small manufacturing operations. “This is all as real as it gets,” said Sterling. “We are trying to change someone’s business. And when their businesses are so intertwined with their lives, we are changing their lives. That’s a pretty big responsibility.”
Two of Sterling’s clients were a passionate 36-year-old lady named Vanessa and her husband who own and manage a full-service laundry business in the building that replaced the parking lot at which Vanessa used to work. “She decided to change her life around and provide her children with the opportunities she never had. She then learned enough about business and is incredibly impressive,” he said. “It’s really an issue of giving them some of the business skills to match their motivation.”
Sterling’s second client is an older woman living well below the poverty line who started a community recycling program in order to keep her area clean. She runs it with her 25-year-old son and, along with kids in the community, simply pick up bottles and cans by hand, and drives them to the nearest recycling plant to collect the modest return on the materials. “It’s making sure she gets fair rates for her materials, making sure her recyclables are safe from pilferage, helping her account for the business, and trying to get her and the community more connected,” says Sterling.
In between consulting with these businesses, students get to explore South Africa. They enjoyed sampling the food at a brai (big barbeque), going on safaris, taking a boat to Seal Island, visiting the Cape of Good Hope, hiking Table Mountain (a very difficult four hour hike), visiting Robben Island (where Nelson Mandela was held for 18 years), and, of course, touring the region’s famous wine country.

I'm using Ubuntu 13.04 Gnome edition. I have a problem with my Arduino Duemilanove Board. Previously I was using kernel 3.9.2-030902-generic. After I installed kernel 3.10rc6 and I started my arduino IDE, I didn't see the serial port
/dev/ttyusb0 as before.
That's important as that's what I use for uploading my code onto the board. Now all I see is /dev/ttyS0. I tried plugging my board in all the usb port but none of them helped in uploading via /dev/ttyS0. I don't know it's actually because of kernel 3.10 but previously everything was working fine.
I did finally remove kernel 3.10 and made 3.9.2 default, but dmesg remains the same and shows some errors in the last lines. I've tried searching Google for solutions, but haven't had any luck.

Germans have an expression for living very well. It's 'living like God in France'. When you see small French medieval towns like Saint-Paul-de-Vence which, except for the tourist shops, look very much as they must have when they were founded in the Middle Ages (in this case, the 9th century), it's easy to understand why.
Not far from Nice, it's home to the Fondation Maeght Museum of Modern Art, alone worth a visit to the French Riviera and this small town. Learn more about Fondation Maeght here.

Former FBI Cyber Squad Supervisor Anaya Joins DEVCON
Company hires veteran cyber crime investigator to help crack the next big segment to be hit by online fraud and theft
DEVCON, a cybersecurity software company dedicated to defeating ad fraud and preserving independent journalism, today announced that one of the nation’s foremost authorities on cyber crime, Michael F.D. Anaya, has joined its team as the Head of Global Cyber Investigations and Government Relations. Anaya comes to DEVCON as a Supervisory Special Agent (SSA) from the Federal Bureau of Investigation’s (FBI) Cyber division. His hire coincides with DEVCON’s recent close of seed funding to aggressively fight online ad fraud.
“We are delighted that Michael decided to join our team,” said Maggie Louie, DEVCON co-founder and CEO. “After working together on a case involving more than 30 fake ad networks distributing millions of attacks collectively, we recognized the unique skillset and insights Michael offers. He is the perfect fit as we seek to stop one of the world’s fastest growing and most costly cyber crimes -- one that has a profound impact on advertisers, media companies, and consumers alike.”
Anaya previously served as a Special Agent in the FBI’s Los Angeles field office addressing complex Cyber matters for eight years, during which time he led numerous, expansive investigations including one that resulted in the first federal conviction of a U.S. person for the use of a peer-to-peer (P2P) botnet. He then was named a Supervisory Special Agent (SSA) for the Leadership Development Program, trusted with bringing together disparate divisions of the FBI, focused on a workforce development initiative. This resulted in a more balanced and inclusive program. After implementation of the program, SSA Anaya went on to lead a Cyber squad in the FBI’s Atlanta field office. There, he led a diverse group of Agents, Intel Analysts, and Computer Scientists in neutralizing Nation State and Criminal threat. He secured one of the highest performance standards given by the FBI to a program for the entire FBI Atlanta Cyber program. SSA Anaya also helped the program achieve a top-five ranking in statistical accomplishments amongst the 56 FBI field offices. READ MORE

Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump likes to say that he's going to make America's space program "first" again. The details of his plan to make that happen are pretty much non-existent and he hasn't actually explained why NASA isn't "first" these days.
But honestly, who cares.
The fact is, it shouldn't matter if America is "first" in space or not. In fact, a go-it-alone strategy on space exploration would be a huge mistake.
Talking about access to space as some kind of national rat race to the top is damaging for every nation hoping to extend its reach into the solar system in the increasingly globalized world we live in.
The ability to launch satellites and people to space is not only a point of pride for nations, it's also quickly becoming an absolute necessity.
The United States is increasingly reliant on space-based assets for navigation and imagery, and other countries need to have a part in that too, or they will be left behind.
Instead of calling on private companies and nations the world over to work together to accomplish costly and important spaceflight goals -- as 15 nations did to build the International Space Station -- Trump and others are falling back on out-dated nationalistic appeals that actively undermine the United Nations-supported goal of keeping space accessible for all.
Making America great in space again
"Nations that lead on the frontier, lead in the world," retired NASA astronaut Eileen Collins said during a speech at the Republican National Convention on the anniversary of the Apollo 11 moon landing.
"We need that leadership that will make America's space program first again. And we need leadership that will make America great again."
That kind of nationalistic thinking is a hard habit to break.
It's no secret that nationalism got us to the moon in the first place. It was the U.S. race to the moon with the former Soviet Union that propelled Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin to the lunar surface.
But, we aren't racing another country back to the moon or to Mars today.
In fact, Russia is now one of our strongest allies in spaceflight. The country's Soyuz spacecraft transport NASA astronauts to and from the International Space Station.
Even when tensions between Russia and the U.S. were the highest they've been in recent memory, the Russian space agency and NASA cooperated to make sure that the astronauts and cosmonauts on the space station stayed safe and were insulated from the foreign policy disagreements.
The truth is, even during the Apollo years, we weren't as nationalistic as we thought we were.
"For all mankind"
In July 1969, when Aldrin and Armstrong touched down on the moon, a plaque attached to the lunar lander read: "Here men from the planet Earth first set foot upon the Moon July 1969, A.D. We came in peace for all mankind."
Yes, Armstrong and Aldrin planted the American flag in the lunar dirt as well, but instead of a plaque saying that Americans came in peace for all "Americans" the plaque included the world in this triumph of human ingenuity.
Plus, in the case of Apollo, nationalism didn't have staying power. An American hasn't set foot on the moon since 1972, with the last Apollo mission, and public support for space has waned. It might be time to try something different.
Instead of taking a bunch of Americans to Mars -- NASA's long-term goal -- wouldn't it be better to carry a crew representative of Earth itself?
If we are truly going to live off-world, shouldn't the people that serve as our vanguards to the solar system be representative of the rest of our planet, a sampling of the best and most diverse minds we have to offer?
Plus, NASA may not be able to get to Mars without working with other countries.
A crewed mission to Mars would cost tens of billions of dollars for any nation aiming for it, so spreading that cost out among other countries may actually make it an easier feat to accomplish.
Even today, the U.S. collaborates with other space agencies and private companies to fly experiments to the Space Station and launch specialized instruments on spacecraft or satellites necessary for exploring the cosmos.
If that kind of collaboration goes away, we'll all be weaker for it.
But what about launching our own astronauts?
While it's true that NASA hasn't launched Americans from U.S. soil since the end of the space shuttle program in 2011, that doesn't mean spaceflight in America is dead.
It's simply evolved into something different, and perhaps, something better.
The space agency now has contracts with two American companies -- SpaceX and Boeing -- to fly people to the Space Station on multiple missions starting as early as next year, assuming Congress funds those efforts at the level requested.
This public-private partnership in space was even praised in the Republican Party's platform this year.
The government money being funneled into the private companies under contract with NASA allows them to push the boundaries with building and testing new launchers and space vehicles.
In many ways, Elon Musk's SpaceX is around today because of NASA money.
Now, SpaceX is helping other countries access space by launching satellites and spacecraft for nations around the world. American innovation is boosting other countries to orbit.
This private partnership will also allow NASA to push farther into the solar system, focusing on stretching its reach to Mars or other worlds, but none of that matters if those that run our government don't accept that we're living in a new era of globalized spaceflight.
By limiting our view and ambitions to just Americans, we're wasting what could be a driver of collaboration and peace between nations the world over.
Isn't that worth setting nationalism aside for a least little while?

March 13, 2011 — It was a great night for VRA regular Steve Conrad as he started 15th in the feature and went on to take his first win in the 2011 season over a stellar field of VRA Sprint Car drivers. Conrad ran the bottom of the track as Greg Taylor and Dakota Kershaw ran the top. These three drivers battled lap after lap until at the end Conrad had pulled off the win. It was a very good night for Kershaw as he ran the best race of his VRA career as he led the first 23 laps of the race. He was passed by Taylor on lap 24 and then went on to finish third in the race. Taylor the led one lap only to be passed by Conrad who was fast on the bottom of the track and led to the finish. Taylor’s second place finish places him atop the VRA Sprint car standings after two races. 2010 series champion Troy Rutherford started the night leading the points, but was eliminated in a first lap turn two incident and now finds himself in second place 95 points behind Taylor. Finishing fourth in the feature was Cory Kruseman with Brian Camarillo taking fifth. The 30 lap feature was a fast and furious one that saw a serious accident send Ventura favorite Rick Hendrix to the hospital after a multi car incident on the back straight on lap 19. The accident brought out a lengthy red flag period as Hendrix was removed from his car and transported to the hospital. There were 30 cars signed into the pits Saturday and four heat races were run with wins going to Rick Hendrix in heat one, Troy Rutherford in heat two, Greg Taylor in heat three and Brian Camarillo in heat four. One semi main was run to fill the main event field with the win going to Justin Kierce.
VRA Senior Sprints opened their season with a field of 17 cars in attendance. Two heat races were run with wins going to Rob Kershaw and Clif Warren. the 20 lap feature saw Ed Schwarz lead lap 1-6. He was passed by Bruce Douglass who then led lap 6-16. All the while 2010 series champion Kershaw was moving toward the front from his 8th place starting position. He took the lead from Douglass as the two came through traffic on lap 17 and kept the lead to take his first win of 2011. following Kershaw and Douglass across the line were Schwarz, Russell DeBlauw and Victor Davis.
IMCA Modifieds resumed their season with two heat races for the 13 cars in the pits. Danny Lauer and Austin Rodarte took race victories. The twenty lap feature saw Jack Parker lead lap 1-5, Andrew Phipps lead lap 6-9, Aaron Rodarte lead lap 10-18 but it was Danny Lauer passing Rodarte to take the lead on lap 19 and then go on win the race. Lauer has now won the first two IMCA events of 2011 and lead the points race by 3 over Austin Rodarte and 6 over brother Aaron Rodarte.
VRA Sport Compact drivers opened their 2011 season Saturday night with 11 cars in the pits. There were two heat races run with wins going to Jason Marshall in heat one and Trevor Fitzgibbon in heat two. The 20 lap feature saw Jess Carlucci lead lap 1-4 only to be passed by 2010 series champion Trevor Fitzgibbon who led the rest of the way to take win number one of the new season. He was followed by Brent Underwood, Cody Greiman, Michaela Stanton and Zach Peterson.
The final group racing Saturday was our VRA Go Karts. There were 26 karts signed in for the night’s racing so three heat races were run with wins going to James Locey in heat one, Dave Pankratz in heat two and Jared Byrd in heat three. The one semi main was won by Johnny Conley. the 20 lap feature was a wild and woolly affair with James Locey leading all 20 laps from his front row starting position. Pankratz finishes second with Josh Ford third, Richard Renken fourth and Jimmy May fifth.
Racing resumes next Saturday night March 19, with a full program of exciting racing featuring the first All Coast Challenge VRA Sprint car race, the first VRA Midget race of the season, Ford Focus and Junior Focus Midgets.


Promise SmartStor DS4600 direct-attached storage device
Promise's direct-attached storage device has plenty of connections, but it isn't particularly fast
- eSATA and FireWire 800 connections, hot-swappable drive bays, one-touch configuration, Mac support
- Flimsy drive rails, can only have one volume, media centre and photo album functions are useless
Promise's SmartStor DS4600 direct-attached storage device provides up to 8TB of storage in a hot-swappable enclosure that has an impressive amount of connectivity. We would have liked better volume management, however.
Price$ 550.00 (AUD)
Promise's SmartStor DS4600 is a direct-attached storage (DAS) enclosure that can house up to four hard drives and provide up to 8TB of storage. It's suitable for a direct connection to servers or workstations, it supports RAID arrays, and its design allows you to hot-swap the hard drives. Its management interface and build quality leave something to be desired, however.
The Promise SmartStor DS4600 DAS device can be connected to a PC or server through the single eSATA, USB 2.0 or FireWire 400 ports or one of the two FireWire 800 ports. It has the same physical design as the Promise SmartStor NS4600 NAS device. Four drive bays sit behind a lockable front panel. Instead of caddies, the SmartStor DS4600 uses plastic rails which surround the drive in order to prevent vibration during operation. We didn't notice any vibrations, but the rails' lack of rigidity makes it installing drives painful.
Promise includes its SmartNAVI software to manage the SmartStor DS4600 DAS device, and it's available in Mac and PC versions. Using SmartNAVI, you can configure RAID volumes, monitor hard drive health and upgrade firmware. Media Centre and Photo Album functions are also available, but these are of questionable usefulness without the ability to serve media over a network.
SmartNAVI provides backup and restore features for any of the drives on the connected computer. Backup is as simple as dragging and dropping the desired folder onto SmartNAVI.
The four hard drives can be configured in a RAID array; there is support for RAID levels 0, 1, 5 and 10. However, even if all four drives are inserted, the SmartStor DS4600 external hard drive only allows you to treat them as one volume. This means you can't configure the four drives in two or more separate volumes or in multiple RAID arrays.
Holding down device's one-touch backup button will automatically configure a RAID array when new hard drives are installed. If there are two drives, it will configure a RAID 1 array; for three or four drives it will use a RAID 5 configuration. It formats the array using the NTFS file system; Mac users will have to format the volume to HFS+ after the process is completed.
The SmartStor DS4600 will automatically detect when it has been disconnected from a computer and stop the hard drives from spinning.
We tested the SmartStor DS4600 with two 1.5TB Seagate Barracuda 7200.11 hard drives installed in a RAID 0 configuration. Our tests involved transferring files between it and a PC equipped with a [[Artnid:257954|300GB Western Digital VelociRaptor hard drive|Western Digital Velociraptor (WD3000GLFS) internal hard drive. Over USB 2.0, it performed slowly. In our large file test — transferring 20GB of 3 to 4GB files — the SmartStor DS4600 had a write speed of 26.4 megabytes per second, a read speed of 27.9MBps and a read/write speed of 11.7MBps. When transferring 3GB of 1MB files, it had read and write speeds of 25MBps, and performed a simultaneous read/write operation at a rate of 10.2MBps.
Connected over eSATA, the SmartStor DS4600 improved significantly. In the large file test, it had identical read and write speeds of 78.2MBps, as well as a simultaneous read/write speed of 35.1MBps. Small file operations were somewhat slower; the external hard drive wrote 3GB of 1MB files at a rate of 50.8MBps, read the same data at 68.2MBps and performed a simultaneous read/write operation at a rate of 34.5MBps.
Overall, the SmartStor DS4600 is slightly faster than LaCie's 4Big Quadra but fails to match the My Book Studio Edition II from Western Digital. For data storage, the SmartStor DS4600 suffice, but high-performance data processing tasks would benefit from a faster hard drive.

I’d happily recommend this touchscreen laptop and Windows 10 as a great way to get serious work done at a desk or on the road.
Ultimately, I think the Windows 10 environment is excellent for me as it caters for so many different uses. The inclusion of the Xbox app is also great for when you need some downtime too!
For me, the Xbox Play Anywhere is a great new feature as it allows you to play your current Xbox games with higher resolutions and better graphics without forking out extra cash for another copy. Although available titles are still scarce, but I’m sure it will grow in time.
First impression on unpacking the Q702 test unit was the solid feel and clean, minimalist styling.
For work use, Microsoft Word and Excel programs pre-installed on the device are adequate for preparing short documents.

Circularity: it’s not all recycling!
Greenlea Premier Meats is a family owned and operated business that traces its roots to the New Zealand east coast town of Gisborne. As a business, they understand their responsibility to their employees, communities, farmers, and the planet.
As part of their journey to meet this responsibility, they decided to investigate how they could minimise the impact of their packaging. A Phase 1 ‘Discovery’ project was co-funded through CircularConnect.
Working with Allan Birch from Tadpole consulting, they conducted a comprehensive packaging audit to identify if and where changes could be made. One of the challenges faced when dealing with food packaging is navigating regulations. It was important for Greenlea to maintain food safety and performance criteria. More complex packaging formats are often needed to ensure perishable items are well sealed and protected. This can mean that packaging materials are non-recyclable. Luckily, circularity isn’t all about recycling!
"We started by understanding local customs and laws, along with the market landscape for plastic packaging where we export to," says Julie McDade, Greenlea’s Business Development Manager. "We then gathered data to group our packaging and pinpoint where to focus." Through the audit, they were able to identify where plastic packaging could be reduced without compromising quality.
The work completed resulted in actionable changes to minimise the amount of plastic in use, as well as providing insights into opportunities for further research. An excellent outcome!

Updated: Dec 9, 2019
I want to take the time to share a topic that lingers more in my mind as I approach my speaking slot at Gainer Festival. It’s something that I’ll dive deeper into at the conference, but felt like it can really benefit those who won’t have the opportunity to attend.
I’ve been hearing from more original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) that they’re starting to feel the pressure of adopting a pay-per-use business model as their customers demand more flexible payment options to purchase their equipment.
To be quite honest, I don’t blame them. With the take over of the sharing economy and the widespread adoption of making “Anything a Service,” it was only a matter of time until this concept lingered into the industrial manufacturing sector.
With the OEMs urgency to adjust, I’ll answer the three most typical questions I get asked:
How can I transition into a pay-per-use business model? How does pay-per-use financing work? What are the hurdles of adopting pay-per-use business models, and how can I overcome them?
How can OEMs transition into a pay-per-use model?
When entering the pay-per-use model, two important supporting parties help you make a smooth transition while leveraging your current business model.
These supporting parties are:
A one-stop data management software solution
An experienced pay-per-use financing partner
Why do you need a data management software solution?
You need software to help you collect, transfer, store, and visualize your equipment usage data. The right software solution will have the IoT know-how and secure technical infrastructure to manage the collection and storage of data generated from your equipment’s utilization.
Additionally, the same solution will prioritize its internal operations to ensure that all the right tools are in place to manage every data-related component of your pay-per-use model.
Your equipment usage data is essential for operating your new revenue model and making future business decisions because:
You’re able to generate all of your pay-per-use invoices using this data. You receive this data back, analyze it, and improve your future product development, such as increasing your machine’s quality and understanding what future adjustments need to be made to extend its lifetime.
The truth lies within the data. Collecting raw usage data is one thing, but transforming that information into a visually pleasing format that possesses genuine business intelligence is an entirely different playground.
The gold lies in being able to translate this information to better your decision-making abilities. When getting started with a pay-per-use model, a leading solution provider must show you this high level of competence within its core values.
The best software provider must be a one-stop solution that specializes in all the IoT connectivity to gather your data, have the proper infrastructure to transfer this data securely, then transform that information into a standard readable format, and lastly have the best financial partners to help create an invaluable commercial product that will best support your assets and business activities.
Why do you need an experienced pay-per-use financing partner?
You need the right financing partner as the intermediary to provide your customers with a financing structure that compliments your pay-per-use model, or else your working capital will explode, your cash flow will have issues, and your balance sheet will be a mess.
I suggest finding a partner who can offer you and your customer a pay-per-use financing plan where the amount at which your customer pays off its debt is pegged to how much they produce.
So if they produce more for a given period and thus make more money, they can pay back more, and vice versa. It’s because of this flexibility that more OEMs prefer this pay-per-use structure over traditional financing methods.
The four biggest hurdles
The four main hurdles I’ve seen OEMs encounter when making a switch to pay-per-use are:
The need for a proper data infrastructure to collect, transfer, store, and display their equipment usage data, as discussed earlier.
The risk if their customer fails to pay off their debt.
The ability to restructure internal invoicing systems.
And the most significant hurdle lies with sales teams having an awkward time adjusting to a new commission structure.
Pay-per-use business models slightly collide with ith the typical sales mindset of pricing the highest to earn the best commission. I completely understand the frustration of having to adjust their current commission system, especially after relying on it for such a long time.
It might be tricky to calculate your earnings in the short run, but in the long term, sales teams have the potential to unlock higher returns.
Depending on the incentive program, sales teams can benefit, for example, by commissioning off a manufacturer's monthly installments, or the company can offer an attractive annual bonus.
I’ll leave that creativity for the OEM, but those are just a few examples I’ve seen other companies implement.
How can you adopt pay-per-use models without transforming your entire business operations?
It would be best if you found a solution provider that can immediately get you your money without having to get too involved in the pay-per-use implementation process. With our solution, you can provide pay-per-use without changing the entire inner-workings of your business.
OEMs receive the full payment upfront from linx4’s financing partners, and the manufacturer works with the bank to facilitate repayments. You get all your money while we take care of your entire pay-per-use activities.
What to look for, who benefits, and how to get started
For any original equipment manufacturer who is looking into pay-per-use business models, I highly suggest you look for someone who understands the ins-and-outs of your business at its core so that you receive the best solution to manage your machine data, finance your equipment, and sell more product.
The right pay-per-use provider will avoid any internal transformations when integrating into your current system and make you feel confident along every step of the way.
You benefit by differentiating yourself from competitors since flexible financing may pose as a USP for your business as a whole. Additionally, you increase your equipment sales, all the while helping your customers propel their business further. Finally, you position yourself as a market leader by adapting to new customer demands and adhering to future financing standards.
What about your customers? How do they benefit from a pay-per-use model? Well, for starters, they experience lower upfront capital investment as well as high financial stability. Additionally, they benefit from a more transparent financing cost structure.
Moreover, a flexible repayment system enables a plethora of tax benefits and cash flow and balance sheet optimization.
You can get started today by reaching out to your current financing partners and asking them to explore this option. Also, feel free can to shoot me a direct message as I’m happy to answer any further questions you may have about how, to begin with pay-per-use business models.
There’s no harm in learning more about your industry and understanding what trends are quickly coming its way. If you happen to be put in a situation where you need to implement a pay-per-use model, I hope you have a better idea of what you should do.
Finally, I can’t wait for next week as I’m looking forward to being on stage and meeting attendees and other industry leaders at Gainer Festival. If you happen to be at the festival and want to chat, please reach me at my:

COLUMBIA, SC (WSPA) – The South Carolina House voted Monday night to reduce the salary of the state’s Comptroller General Richard Eckstrom to $1.
The House passed an amendment to its budget proposal in the wake of what the bill’s sponsor, Democratic Rep. Heather Bauer of Richland County, called a “$3.5 billion whoopsie.”
Bauer was referring to an accounting error lawmakers learned about last month when Eckstrom told informed senators about a $3.5 billion overstatement of the state’s cash balances.
The number was reported in his office’s annual financial report. According to Eckstrom, it was corrected last fall.
Over the last few weeks, a Senate Finance subcommittee has been investigating the error.
“We’re hearing that it’s a mapping error and a coding error, but clearly the responsibility with this report lies with the state Comptroller General,” Republican Sen. Larry Grooms of Berkeley County said.
The subcommittee finalized recommendations in response to the error Tuesday afternoon. They are expected to be released on Wednesday.

Eat Your Words, Not the Food
1. Lots of hungry New Yorker’s crawled over. 2. Theresa and Jesse, coupling out.
As I looked through the twenty choices for venues and readings at the fourth annual NYC Lit Crawl on Saturday, the one that caught my eye was No. 3, “Eat Your Words,” which took place at Jimmy’s No. 43. The description put me in Eat, Pray, Love mood as it drew me to Lauren Shockey, Joshua Bernstein, and Giulia Melucci “dishing about brews, ex-boyfriends and spaghetti,” all three of which I consume in great quantity.
The reading also drew in other New Yorkers in the mood for romance; I had the pleasure of sitting next to Theresa and Jesse, who I was told “are very much a couple.” It was their first event on the crawl and they came because “food is good.” I agreed with their statement and wished them luck on their project made together and out of love, an interactive installation that relates to “steam-punk and VCRs.”
Turns out ordering “Eat Your Words” as an appetizer for the dinner I planned after was probably not the best idea. The stories were captivating and entertaining, but as Shockey informed the audience, “you can have an incredibly uncomfortable meal but still find your place at the table.”
1. Tastes like dog. 2. Jenny and Riz, before the ramen.
Giulia Melucci asked, “The beer is a bit moldy, is it supposed to be that way?” before she read, setting the culinary theme for the evening. [Author’s note: No.] From moldy beer I traveled to Vietnam with Shockey and learned the fine art of canine connoisseurship. Apparently, it’s grey, chewy, fatty, and tastes “a bit like venison.” But be careful when you eat, because depending what phase the lunar calendar is in, eating dog can either bring good luck or great misfortune. So watch out for that.
To send us off, Bernstein performed an oral piece about his love for an espresso machine and an apartment whose predominant aesthetic revolved around the accumulation of empty wine bottles (I particularly admire this school of interior design). The East Village apartment also featured exposed brick, lots of light, and a “rolling carpet of cockroaches.” I won’t reveal any endings to you, but the words “colonies,” and “graveyard of thoraxes,” were used.
So, while I definitely didn’t leave Jimmy’s No. 43 with a big appetite, my hunger for well-written stories had been filled. I caught the event’s emcee, Jenny Miller, editor at Grub Street, on her way out with Riz, who “officially confirmed” their dating-status during the interview, though “it has yet to become Facebook official.” But before that milestone is reached, they were off to Chuko, a Prospect Heights restaurant, to enjoy some fine ramen and a beautiful night in the city.

Hasegawa 1/32 J2M3 Raiden Jack Type 21 Japanese Navy Interceptor Kit
This Product Usually Ships In 2-3 Business Days
Designed by Jiro Horikoshi, the Mitsubishi J2M could fly faster - and climb even higher - than the celebrated A6M Zero. The J2M3 Type 21 was distinguished by a powerful MK4R-A Kasei 23a engine, two wing-mounted 20 mm Type 99 Model I cannons and two wing-mounted 20 mm Type 99 Model II cannons. While it was no match for the Allies' P-51D Mustang, the J2M3 was rather successful against strategic bombers like the B-29 Superfortress. This exceptional, newly tooled 1/32 scale kit includes all the parts you need to build a realistic, highly detailed pilot figure.

Senior Manchester United officials becoming frustrated with Jose Mourinho's antics as boss is hit with third FA charge in space of a month
- Manchester United news: All the latest from Old Trafford
- Jose Mourinho was again sent off during Sunday's 1-1 draw with West Ham
- Portuguese has been charged by the FA for alleged improper conduct
- Former Chelsea boss was also sent to stands in October clash vs Burnley
- Manchester United will not challenge the new boss over his behaviour
- Mourinho has until 6pm on 1 December 2016 to respond to the charge
- Manchester United news: Jose Mourinho looks as if mood has barely improved after West Ham dismissal
Senior figures at Manchester United are growing increasingly frustrated with Jose Mourinho’s behaviour after he was hit with a third FA charge in the space of month.
Sportsmail understands that United chief Ed Woodward will not take any action against Mourinho, who was sent to the stands for angrily kicking a water bottle on the touchline in Sunday’s draw at home to West Ham.
But other members of the club’s hierarchy are concerned that Mourinho’s conduct is becoming a distraction to the team as United struggle through their worst start to a league season in 27 years.
Man United officials are becoming frustrated after Jose Mourinho's latest bad behaviour
The Old Trafford boss kicked a water bottle in frustration during the 1-1 draw with West Ham
Mourinho has been charged by the FA for the third time in the space of a month
The United boss was fined £50,000 for comments about referee Anthony Taylor earlier this month, and then hit with a one-match touchline ban after he was sent to the stands against Burnley.
The latter offence means that Mourinho now faces a ‘non-standard’ charge, giving an independent regulatory commission the power to impose a heavier punishment.
Mourinho has until 6pm on Thursday to respond to the charge, and is set to be banned for up to three games if found guilty.
It’s understood that all Premier League managers were warned before the start of the season that kicking a water bottle would result in an automatic dismissal, and Mourinho accepted the decision of referee Jon Moss.
Manchester United are not set to warn the Portuguese of the image he's presenting
Mourinho's frustration was sparked by Paul Pogba's booking for a simulation
Mourinho disappears down the tunnel and was not seen again until after the game
A statement from the FA read: ‘Jose Mourinho has been charged following Manchester United’s game against West Ham United on Sunday.
'It is alleged his behaviour in or around the 27th minute of the game amounts to improper conduct.’
The case will be dealt with by an independent regulatory commission which has the power to increase the one-match suspension Mourinho served at Swansea earlier this month if he is found guilty.
There is no set tariff for the offence and the 53-year-old’s conduct over the past 12 months would also be taken into account.
Mourinho was also sent to the stands during the draw with Burnley on October 29

Scott and I spent our first wedding anniversary in Venice, an amazingly romantic city known for it’s canals, opera and glass thanks to a small island off the shores of Venice called Murano. The blown Murano glass chandeliers made my mouth drop. It’s not the first time I’ve been wowed by lighting, but this is definitely a more feminine silhouette than I’m typically favor in a light fixture.
These fabulous glass chandeliers are delicate works of art that aren’t cheap. This white one is $1,326. But what they do for a room is amazing. Though traditional in shape, Murano glass chandeliers look modern done in colored glass, like white, red, turquoise and black and pair perfectly in almost any interior.

While a real Murano glass chandelier is exquisite, I could never spend more than a grand on a lighting fixture. Being a bargain hunter, I prefer to find a less expensive knockoff.
What do you think of Murano glass chandeliers?

|March 24, 1826—March 18, 1898 (aged 71)
|Suffragist, Native American activist, abolitionist
Matilda Joslyn Gage, suffragist and writer, was born in Cicero, New York, on March 24, 1826. Gage's father provided her early education, which included mathematics, Greek, and biology, after which she attended the Clinton Liberal Institute in New York. She married Henry H. Gage, a merchant, in 1845; they had five children, although one son died in infancy. The couple later moved to Syracuse and Manlius before finally settling in Fayetteville, New York.
Gage's activism in women's rights began at the National Woman's Rights Convention in Syracuse in September 1852. Becoming close friends with Elizabeth Cady Stanton, Gage began lecturing and organizing in support of women's rights. During the Civil War, a general moratorium was declared within the movement for women's rights, so that women could devote their efforts to the war efforts. An original member of the National Woman Suffrage Association (NWSA) and the New York State Woman Suffrage Association, she was elected vice-president and secretary of the latter organization in 1869. In 1875, Gage was elected president of both the state and national suffrage associations. She contributed to the NWSA's newspaper, The Revolution, and testified before several House and Senate committees that debated woman suffrage.
Gage became more and more convinced that the misogynist elements of Christian doctrine were major causes of women's lower social status. She argued that many churches taught that woman was inferior to man and blamed women for the introduction of sin into the world. From 1878 to 1890, Gage lobbied within the NWSA to make opposition to misogynist religious teachings a priority. Her efforts met with strong resistance from the moderate and conservative party elements, and in 1890, she left the organization to found the Woman's National Liberal Union. The WNLU's objectives included woman suffrage, but the organization also sought to expose the religious denigration of women, and to fight for a constitutional amendment guaranteeing the separation of church and state.
One of Gage's contributions to the suffrage movement was her writings. With Stanton and Susan B. Anthony, she authored the Woman's Declaration of Rights, which was read at the 1876 Independence Day celebration in Philadelphia. Between 1878 and 1881, she edited and published the National Citizen and Ballot Box, the monthly newspaper of the NWSA. Her 1881 essay, "Preceding Causes," places the nineteenth-century women's rights movement within the larger historical context of Western civilization. The church and the state, she argued, have been twin barriers to human rights because both conspire to limit freedoms. One surprising pamphlet, "Who Planned the Tennessee Campaign of 1862?" (1880), makes the claim that Anna Carroll deserves the credit for masterminding the Union military campaign in Tennessee during the Civil War. Gage's second collaboration with Stanton and Anthony resulted in the first three volumes of the exhaustive six-volume "History of Woman Suffrage" (1881-1922). In the final chapter of the first volume, Gage asserts that "the most grievous wound ever inflicted upon woman has been in the teaching that she was not created equal with man, and the consequent denial of her rightful place and position in Church and State" (p. 754). The scholarly "Woman, Church and State" (1893), which Gage considered her most important work, continues in this vein, expounding her controversial views on the relationship between Christianity and women's status.
Gage spent her final years in Chicago with her daughter, Maud Baum, wife of L. Frank Baum, who later wrote "The Wizard of Oz." Her later writings concentrated on religious and metaphysical questions. In her last months, she wrote a paper for the National American Woman Suffrage Association's celebration of the fiftieth anniversary of the first women's rights convention. She died in Chicago on March 18, 1898.
