Resolute Class Battlecruiser image from Planets Nu
The Resolute is a workhorse of the Bird fleet: ample firepower, ample cargo, Advanced Cloaking, it is ideally equipped for long range stealth strike missions, cargo hauling in hostile conditions, and nearly any use that comes to hand. It may not always be the best ship for the job, but it's almost always an adequate ship for any job. It has the fuel and cargo capacity to bring big pain to a remote target. This is a popular ship for non-cloaking races that can benefit highly from a cloaker, such as the Robots, Crystals, or even Lizards (who are attracted to its large payload and fuel usage).
The Empire of Birds
- Advanced cloaking device doesn't fail inside nebulae, unlike normal cloaking devices.
- Advanced cloaking further protects the Resolute Battlecruiser against radiation. About 33.3% of the normal crew/clans are lost while cloaked.


Where can I see a demo of the Connected Vehicle's Accelerator showing the port of rotterdam ships tracking
We are a TIBCO Partner in Latin America, and we have a prospect interested in a solution for logistics services based on an ESB. The prospect came across a solution made for the Port of Rotterdam, that I believe also includes train monitoring. Wacthing TIBCO's Connected Vehicle Accelerator information got me thinking that it might be the same he is looking at. He found this solution very interesting so I would like to see TIBCO's CVA solution to see if it is the same one. How can I have access on this and overall to what you have done with the port of Rotterdam? Even if we are not talking about the same solution, It would still be interesting for them.
ph 507 202-2673
The Connected Vehicles Accelerator is skinnable and may be used for different cases. So far it's been used for trains, busses, airplanes and ships.
So if your prospect was at TIBCO NOW in Las Vegas they may indeed have seen a port / trains demo. The slides used there are available on the Wiki at https://community.tibco.com/wiki/tibco-connected-vehicle-accelerator-reu...

Cordial, a late-season, short-day strawberry (Fragaria ×ananassa Duch. ex Rozier), follows Keepsake as the second cultivar resulting from a U.S. Department of Agriculture-Agricultural Research Service (USDA-ARS) effort at Beltsville, MD, to develop strawberries with increased shelf life (Lewers et al., 2019). ‘Cordial’ and ‘Keepsake’ strawberries had similarly low proportions of fruit rot and degradation in 2 weeks of refrigerated storage compared with other cultivars and breeding selections. ‘Cordial’ has consistently provided very high yields and very low rot with no fumigation or fungicides in an annual plasticulture system at Beltsville, MD. ‘Cordial’ strawberries are large, attractive, quite firm, and tough enough for handling. The name, ‘Cordial’, is in reference to the flavor being friendly, not tart, even in rainy weather. ‘Cordial’ is expected to be adapted to the Mid-Atlantic region of the United States and regions with similar climates.

text: IN 1928 the Worshipful Company of Clothworkers of the City of London made a grant of £3,000 a year to the University of Leeds for research purposes. Never has a grant been more fully justified, for it resulted in the appointment of Dr. W. T. Astbury as lecturer in textile physics and induced him to take up the study of proteins. A scholar of Jesus College, Cambridge, Astbury had acted as assistant to Sir William Bragg, first at University College, London, during 1921–23, and then at the Davy Faraday Laboratory of the Royal Institution during 1923–28. At Leeds, therefore, X-ray studies of hair, wool and related fibres claimed his immediate attention, and the main features of the molecular structure of the keratins were defined in two papers published in the Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society in 1931 and 1933. The industrial importance of this and other work was recognized by the award of the Gold Medal of the Worshipful Company of Dyers in 1934, and the Warner Memorial Medal of the Textile Institute in 1935. Its implications in the biological field were even more profound: assisted by generous grants from the Rockefeller Foundation since 1933, he utilized his concept of folded and, extended poly-peptide chains, derived from the examination of unstretched and stretched wool fibres, to obtain a structural interpretation of the denaturation phenomenon, and, later, to identify the keratins, myosin, fibrinogen and fibrin as belonging to the same group of proteins.

Nawazuddin Siddiqui will be playing the lead role of a ‘passionate lover’ in brother Shamas Nawab Siddiqui’s debut film Bole Chudiyan.
The romantic drama film will be produced by Rajesh Bhatia and Kiran Bhatia of Woodpecker Movies, who are also producing Nawazuddin’s upcoming release, Motichoor Chaknachoor.
Shamas Siddiqui has previously helmed several ad films and a short, Miyan Kal Aana (Mister Come Tomorrow), that has travelled to 34 international film festivals and received 10 awards. He has also worked as a co-producer on Manto, where Nawazuddin played the titular role of Saadat Hasan Manto.
“I am happy that Nawaz bhai has given his nod to my script. I have worked for more than a year on it. As everyone knows, he is very choosy with his scripts and wouldn’t do a film just because I am his brother. Bole Chudiyan is a romantic drama set in our home-town of Budhana in Uttar Pradesh. We are in talks with several actors to play the female lead in the film.”

Tom Willis, Born Armless, Tosses First Pitch at Royals Game: Video
"Despite being born with no arms, Tom Willis is garnering attention for a practice that typically requires them -- pitching a baseball.
The 54-year-old motivational speaker raises awareness about people with disabilities by wowing baseball fans and throwing out a ceremonial first pitch with his feet.
Willis hopes to throw a first pitch at all 30 Major League ballparks. Thus far he`s made it to 22."
Tom Willis isn`t a one-trick pony whose sole claim to fame is pitching a baseball, he`s an award-winning video producer.
But by throwing out ceremonial first pitches at major league ballparks he`s inspiring thousands and raising awareness about people with disabilities.
Forget about the fact that Willis doesn`t have any arms, he can pitch exceedingly well for a 54-year-old dude.
He can certainly pitch better than 50 Cent, Carly Rae Jepsen and other celebs who have tossed first pitches. Although I could watch the video of Jepsen throwing out the first pitch a hundred times, she looks so cute in her Daisy Dukes.

Going to art school is an incredible step for a budding artist, but the costs of attendance can be overwhelming. However, there are plenty of scholarships aimed at helping talented individuals fund their education.
Art scholarships are highly competitive since they are all merit-based. While you can take on other types of student financial aid like grants or student loans, receiving a scholarship to go to art school is a huge honor.
Fortunately, there are several art scholarships you can apply for that will help get you through art school. These can mark that you are a talented art student, but art scholarships are not likely to cover the entire cost of attending art school. Looking for other types of financial aid helps too.
What Are Merit-Based Scholarships?
When you look at scholarships and grants to get through college, you will look at two types of financial aid: need-based and merit-based. Students who get into college but who do not have access to enough money to attend can qualify for need-based aid. These typically come in the form of:
- Scholarships from the college.
- Federal grants.
- Subsidized federal loans.
- State-based scholarships and loans.
Merit-based financial aid, on the other hand, is most often found as a scholarship or competition. There are a variety of talents and interests that you can use to apply for merit-based aid, including:
- Creative pursuits like music.
- Research and technology.
If you can think of a subject you are good at, there will likely be a merit-based scholarship or academic competition using these criteria. If you intend to go to art school specifically, applying for art scholarships will show that your portfolio is ahead of other students’ work.
Art Scholarships Divided by Type
National, local, and school-based scholarships are available to help you through art school. This list covers some of the best art scholarships in 2020.
State-Specific Art Scholarships
- Archibald Rutledge Scholarship Program: High school seniors in South Carolina who plan to remain in the state for college can apply for this scholarship program. If awarded, you receive $2,000. There are five creative categories you can apply for.
- Creative writing
- Visual arts
This scholarship can go to costs like tuition, room and board, and supplies or other resources for class. To apply, you must submit your portfolio, a reflection statement, and one process folio. Contents of your portfolio can vary based on your creative field.
- Arts for Life! Scholarship: This award goes to Florida high school students planning to study dance, music, drama, creative writing, or visual arts in college. Awards of $1,000 each will go to 25 outstanding college-bound young artists in the Sunshine State. You must submit your portfolio and a brief essay.
- Esther Kanagawa Memorial Art Scholarship: This scholarship is for high school seniors living in Hawaii who will major in fine arts at an accredited state college or university. Eligible applicants must have a minimum GPA of 2.7 and demonstrate financial need. The award amount varies.
In addition to academic, financial need, and residency requirements, this scholarship requires that you submit an essay, your SAT or ACT scores, a transcript, and FAFSA information.
- Florence Lemcke Memorial Scholarship Fund: For graduating high school seniors in the state of Washington who plan to study fine arts and are the child, grandchild, or great-grandchild of a veteran of war. Fine arts include these disciplines:
You can receive up to $1,000 toward school. You must submit the application packet and list community organizations to which you belong. You must also include three letters of recommendation, an original essay, a transcript, and some information about the war veteran in your family.
- Zinggia! Art Scholarship: Ohio high school students can receive $2,000 to enter art-related fields, including creative works like poetry and painting, or less well-known pursuits like printmaking. To apply for this scholarship, you must be a current high school senior in Ohio, have a 3.0 GPA, and plan to use the money at an art school, four-year institution, or two-year trade school.
Your portfolio must include five art samples, your transcript, and a signed letter of recommendation.
Art Scholarships Open to National Applicants
- AIGA Worldstudio Scholarships: Students with significant financial need, at least a 2.0 grade point average (GPA), and who are currently studying fine art, graphic design, photography, or illustration can apply for this award. You can receive up to $6,000, but the award might be adjusted if you have less financial need.
This scholarship is awarded to minority or underprivileged students studying some creative fields, to encourage social and environmental responsibility in future generations of artists. To apply, you must write a statement of purpose, information on the college you are or will be attending, a self-portrait, a portfolio, and financial information proving you have significant need.
- Art Renewal Center Scholarship Competition: The Art Renewal Center (ARC) offers $30,000 divided between 10 recipients whose artwork reflects traditional or contemporary realism. Work samples must be included in the application, but can include forms like:
- Still life.
- Natural representations.
The award will go to students who plan to attend ARC-approved schools. The application is entirely online, so you will need digital copies of your artwork.
- Catherine W. Pierce Scholarship: This scholarship is for current minority college students at UNCF member colleges and universities who are majoring in art or art history and have at least a 2.5 GPA. You can receive up to $4,500 toward tuition, although you must submit a one-page essay as part of your application.
- Stacey Scholarship Fund: This award is for undergraduate and graduate students between the ages of 18 and 35 years old who dedicate themselves to classical or conservative traditions in fields like:
- Painting from life.
- Drawing the figure (nude).
- Related examples.
Awards range between $500 and $5,000. Applications run along the lines of other art scholarships, including a portfolio, short statement or essay, and recommendation letters. The fund is clear, however, that your work must remain in a classical or conservative tradition throughout your time in art school.
- F. Lammot Belin Arts Scholarship: While many of the listed awards go specifically toward college or university, this scholarship offers $12,000 that can go toward either formal or informal art education, including travel for your education. This program was established by the Belin estate to fund artists of many ages seeking additional education and professional development, who already display outstanding aptitude in the fine arts.
Art Scholarships Based on Demographics
- Against the Grain Artistic Scholarship: Funds are available for Asian American college students who have at least 25% Asian or Pacific Islander ethnicity. Students must pursue a major in a creative field, including performing arts, journalism, mass communication, or visual arts. They must also have between a 3.0 and 4.0 GPA. Both high school seniors and current college students are eligible to apply for this $1,000 scholarship.
When you apply, your artistic portfolio or essay will be evaluated. In addition, you must also demonstrate good academic performance, leadership or community service, and send letters of recommendation. If you move to the second phase, you must undergo a phone interview.
- Congressional Black Caucuses (CBC) Spouses Visual Art and Performing Art Scholarships: For African American or black college students majoring in a creative field like these:
- Graphic design
- Interior design
- Video production
- Marching band
The award amount varies. Each field has somewhat different criteria but will require you to demonstrate excellence in your creative pursuits.
- Lois Livingston McMillen Fund: This is a scholarship for women in Connecticut studying fine arts, with a preference toward those studying painting or design. You can receive between $500 and $4,000.
Art Scholarships Do Not Cover Your Full Educational Needs
While the scholarships listed here help to lessen the financial burden of art school, you will need additional methods to pay for your college education. Few of these merit-based scholarships will cover your tuition or other needs. You should also submit a FAFSA, ask your high school guidance counselor about college scholarships, and work with your college’s financial aid office to get grants, work-study opportunities, and student loans.

Hello TechKnow members and visitors!
I've been challanged to move a application from one server to another.
So this application just uses a SQL database and a few program files, nothing out of the ordinary.
However, once all the files and database have been moved, the application complained the stored procedures were missing.
I went back to the original server to discover that these are stored with encryption, this has been done highly likely by the software supplier to protect their product. All fine, but this company is hard to reach and I was unable to get support, time for another look at the situation...
As you know, there are plenty ways to export/import databases in SQL, I followed these steps in order to move the encrypted stored procedures:
1. Perform a SQL to SQL migration (this step might be unneeded, but could be since all required permissions and file locations are set)
2. Take the database instance offline
3. Get the original databases (MDF and LDF), copy them to the new server
4. Rename the database, DBNAME.MDF to DBNAME_Data.MDF, the LDF was fine
5. Start the database instance
That's really all! I've tried tricks using import/export and manual dumping, all failed, but this did the trick and the application works fine now.

WEEKLY HIGHLIGHTS FOR WEEK ENDING 8 August 1997:
Steve Larsen, Paul Lassa, and Mike Eglington from the Gyroscope Suspension System group have reduced the suspension loop execution time on the RAD6000 processor from 2000 microseconds to less than 500 microseconds. This is compatible with a 2kHz control rate, and therefore with ground levitation capability. The improvements were made by removing the VX Works task manager and rewriting the square root algorithm for the RAD6000. The RAD6000 processor is the engineering unit for the GP-B flight suspension and readout electronics systems.
Phase 3 of the Probe-C Integration has been successfully completed. The Top Hat was successfully bonded onto the Probe-C assembly on 29 July. After a 24-hour cure, the instrumentation cables were connected inside the top hat, and the strongback was bolted on over the composite neck tube to provide structural support for the composite tube, completing Phase 3 Integration. The effort represents a big milestone for the Probe team.
The probe is now ready for Phase 4 integration. Phase 4 and final test represent a three month effort culminating in delivery of the probe to Stanford.
Contract deliverables and draft presentation material have been completed and submitted to Stanford University for the second Relativity Mission Spacecraft Critical Design Review (CDR 2). Fifty three documents and one hundred sixty nine released drawings were delivered to Stanford.

Today: Top 10 best lodges & hotels in (and near) the USA’s National Parks
Happy 4th of July to my audience from the United States of America! On July 4, 1776, the delegates of the 13 colonies officially adopted the Declaration of Independence and ended British rule. Today, millions of Americans meet up with loved ones around grills and barbecue pits to celebrate the fourth of July (or Independence Day), many of them doing that in one of the country’s majestic National Parks. From the shorelines of the East Coast to the magnificent West Coast scenery and the majestic Rockies, there are more than enough opportunities to explore the great outdoors in one of these spectacular parks. Here’s my selections of the 10 best hotels and lodges in (or nearby) these National Parks.
What is your favorite lodge (or hotel) in or near one of America’s National Parks? Leave a comment.
Built by the Great Northern Railway in 1914-15, Many Glacier Hotel is situated on the shores of Swiftcurrent Lake inside Glacier National Park. This location presents visitors with the Swiss Lounge, Heidi’s Snack Shop, the lakeside Ptarmigan Dining Room as well as a Gift Shop. Red Bus tours, boat cruises, horseback rides, evening ranger programs, and numerous other activities are available at this spectacular lakeside setting, one of the best of any of the national parks. Partially renovated in 2016, the secluded, five-story hotel features two suites, seven family rooms and 205 guest rooms offering lakeside, deluxe, standard and value lodging options. All guest rooms at Many Glacier Hotel are rustic, yet comfortable. In keeping with the era in which the hotel was built, the rooms offer guests modest amenities and old-world style accommodations. There are no televisions or air conditioning though.

Located directly on the canyon rim, El Tovar features a fine dining room, lounge, gift shop, and newsstand. The hotel has 78 rooms, many of which are suites. Due to the historic nature of the hotel, no two rooms are alike, giving the hotel distinctive charm. El Tovar first opened its doors in 1905. The hotel was designed by the Chicago architect Charles Whittlesey, who envisioned the hotel as a cross between a Swiss chalet and a Norwegian Villa. This was done in an effort to appeal to the tastes of the elite from that era, who at the time considered European culture the epitome of refinement. It cost $250,000 USD to build the property, and many considered it the most elegant hotel west of the Mississippi River. In 1987 the Hotel was designated a National Historic Landmark. In the past, the hotel has hosted such luminaries as Theodore Roosevelt, Albert Einstein, Western author Zane Grey, and countless others.

The Ahwahnee shines as one of the crown jewel of the national park lodges. Known for its stunning interior design and architecture, the lodge was specifically designed to highlight its natural surroundings, featuring Yosemite Falls, Half Dome and Glacier Point. The hotel holds a historic heritage as it is listed on the National Register of Historic Places and is a National Historic Landmark. The destination of queens and presidents alike, this distinctive Yosemite hotel offers a perfect balance of history, hospitality and elegance. The Ahwahnee offers hotel rooms, suites, parlors, and cottages. There is a gift shop with a focus on local artisans, a sweet shop, a bar, and a heated outdoor swimming pool on the premises. The Ahwahnee Dining Room serves breakfast, lunch, dinner and Sunday brunch.

An elegant hideaway since 1927, the historic Inn at Death Valley is a AAA-rated four-diamond resort that still pampers every guest. Once the exclusive desert escape for such Hollywood elites as Marlon Brando, Clark Gable, and Carole Lombard, The Inn is bringing the elegance of Old Hollywood back after its recent $100 million USD renaissance. Set against the hillside, the exclusive and private resort looks out over the valley toward the Panamint Mountains. Natural springs run right through the hotel and lush palm trees and flowering bougainvillea adorn the grounds. The Inn features brand new casitas, a spring-fed pool, and classic California-desert style. Smack in the heart of Death Valley, this luxurious retreat is part of the Oasis at Death Valley resort, which also includes the family-friendly Ranch at Death Valley just down the road.
- Lodge website: The Inn at Death Valley
The exclusive Jenny Lake Lodge is well-situated property hidden beneath towering spruces at the foot of the Grand Tetons mountain range. Jenny Lake Lodge is the product of evolution: it began its life as a man-only ranch for city folks eager for the experience of “roughing it” but emerged a 4-diamond eco-resort offering the finest service and lodging while still experiencing a National Park. All cabins include handmade quilts, down comforters and unique western charm. This semi-inclusive property includes amenities such as horseback rides, cruiser-style bicycle rentals, interpretive tours, and croquet on the lawn with complimentary wine. Also included are meals at the Dining Room, renowned for its rustic elegance, spectacular views and award-winning cuisine including a 5-course dining experience made from sustainable ingredients, many from the local Jackson area.

The Great Smoky Mountains National Park – evenly divided between the USA states of Tennessee and North Carolina – is a UNESCO World Heritage Site for the wealth of its biodiversity, a showplace of forested mountains, waterfalls and hiking trails. Over 17,000 species are documented in the park and researchers believe an additional 30,000 – 80,000 species live here. In these wild, imposing natural surroundings, Blackberry Mountain is an establishment that prioritizes overall wellness, outdoor adventure and inner serenity. Rooms take the form of cabins and cottages designed with nature in mind, places to unplug from the world and reconnect with oneself. The hotel’s two restaurants both have sublime views and serve the creations of Chef Josh Feathers, who uses healthy ingredients and combines local flavours and culinary techniques. The property also has an underground spa offering Ayurvedic treatments.

Paradise lies deep in the Alaskan wilderness, more precisely in Wrangell-St Elias National Park, which is part of the largest protected land mass on earth. Located a hundred miles from paved roads and quite possibly the most isolated National Park lodge in the Americas, Ultima Thule Lodge is immersed in nature, steeped in luxury, and centered on adventure. The main lodge sits at the top of the hill and houses the dining room, open kitchen, and sitting room with floor-to-ceiling windows looking out over the mighty Chitina River and mountains to the South. The lodge offers 5 private cabins built using local timber and designed to maximize privacy. With over thirteen million acres at your disposal, and expert pilot guides available to private excursions – you could be hiking a meadow in the morning and sledding down a glacier all in the same day.

Utah’s Zion National Park is a wonder in itself, but this new luxurious wilderness retreat next door – to open this summer – might just give the park a run for its money. Situated on 1,100 acres just one mile from Zion’s east boundary, Spirit will feature 40 individual suites and homesteads that are perfectly perched along the eastern slope of the Clear Creek Mountain range, with the park’s most iconic rock formations in perfect view. Uniquely designed to evoke a connection to, and integrate seamlessly with, the natural beauty and wilderness of Utah’s first and most-visited national park, the resort’s accommodations were designed by Nomadic Resorts, a Dutch architecture firm that specializes in eco-friendly, luxurious lodgings for remote properties. The first phase of the property, which includes approximately seven suites, will open in summer 2022, with a full opening slated for spring 2023 (room rates start from $3000 USD per night).

This Aman resort in Jackson Hole, Wyoming is only 9 miles (14 km) from the gateway to Grand Teton National Park known for its alpine peaks, clear lakes and the Snake River for rafting and fly fishing. The all-seasons property clings to the crest of East Gros Ventre Butte, affording magnificent views of the Grand Tetons and Snake River Valley below. Sensitively designed with materials native to Wyoming, Amangani features redwood walls, floor-to-ceiling windows, and woven cowhide chairs. Spacious suites include king-sized beds, fireplaces, daybeds, and decks with spectacular mountain views. It’s a perfect place to splurge near the wilderness of Grand Teton and -further away – Yellowstone National Park. Evoking the pioneering spirit of the Old West in its redwood and sandstone architecture, the all-season retreat invites guests to discover outdoor adventure and the extraordinary natural beauty of Wyoming.

The Voice Over LTE (VoLTE) market was valued at USD 3.7 billion in 2019 and is expected to reach USD 133.57 billion by 2025, at a CAGR of 56.57% over the forecast period 2020 - 2025. The increase in trend of high-speed use of the internet to drive the VoLTE market in the forecast period.
- Although Voice over IP or VoIP created the market for sending voice over the internet, Voice over LTE is expanding, and carriers/telecom network providers are undergoing digital transformation to enable a better experience for users of the technology.
- The increasing demand for improved voice and video quality and high-speed internet is driving the adoption of VoLTE services. The growing demand for high-speed data is growing competition among the operators for best mobile broadband offering, with highest speeds and the best coverage.
- There are around 1500 models of VoLTE enabled devices, of which smartwatches are one of the latest models. The number of devices that are supporting VoLTE has seen a 7% increase compared to August 2018, according to GSMA.
- The major challenge for VoLTE market would be the lack of awareness due to which there is late adoption in the underdeveloped regions.
Scope of the Report
Voice over Long-Term Evolution ( VoLTE) is a digital packet voice service which uses IMS technology for high-speed wireless communication for mobile phones (and other devices), data terminals, also all IoT devices and is delivered over IP via an LTE access network.
Key Market Trends
Increasing Demand for High-Speed Internet is Driving the Voice Over LTE (VoLTE) Market
- Voice over LTE(VoLTE) enables wireless operators to deliver a new set of standards-based services referred to as Rich Communications Services (RCS). These services include things like video calling, file transferring, real-time language translation, video voicemail, HD calling, and instant messaging. Since the consumers have started getting dependent on these services that the demand for high-speed internet have increased. Exabytes of data is been transferred every day from various types of devices like smartphones, tablets, laptops, and others.
- Technology providers are increasing the applications of VoLTE technology to support ongoing IoT adoption. For instance, Ericsson is set to broaden the reach of voice over LTE with the addition of the technology to LTE-M deployments. Through this addition, IoT devices would be empowered to support voice as well as data.
- Increasing demand in emerging Asian regions such as India among other countries is driving the market forward. Reliance Jio followed by Vodafone have been successful in promoting that VoLTE would become a standard service that is activated in new handset sales going forward.
Asia-Pacific to Account for Significant Market Share
- Asia-Pacific region has the highest number of mobile subscriptions in the world. The number of subscriptions is around 4.2 billion which accounts for close to 53% of the total number of subscriptions.
- In Q1 of 2018, China registered the highest number of internet penetrations in the world, which is around 53 million. The intense competition among the operators in China has driven the increase in the number of subscribers with multi subscriptions. The increasing consumer spending and growing need for high-speed data have been persuading operators in the region to enable VoLTE services.
- Asia-Pacific has the highest number of VoLTE operators and subscribers. The mobile network providers such as Vodafone, Airtel, Reliance Jio, Digi, U Mobile, Yes 4G, and Dialog have ventured into the VoLTE technology and are investing in this technology to provide better service.
- Countries such as China, Japan, South Korea, and India are the major contributors in this region. In fact, Japan and South Korea are among the very few regions (the US, and Canada) with most networks having more than 60% of voice calls on LTE smartphones provisioned using VoLTE. Ericsson reported that, in some networks, this figure was close to 80%.
The major players like AT&T Inc, Verizon Wireless, SK Telecom Co., Ltd., LG Uplus Corp., Bell Canada, Vodafone Group plc, Reliance Jio Infocom ltd., Bharati Airtel Limited, KT Corporation, Orange S.A. Since there is a very high competition in the market without any dominant players hence the market is fragmented and therefore, market concentration will be low.
- October 2018 - Verison’s 5G Labs crossed the milestone of 5G technology. They launched Verizon 5G Home, the world’s first commercial 5G broadband internet service. The 5G connection provides high-speed data connection speeds that are 30 to 50 times faster than 4G.
- May 2018 - Nokia 7 Plus smartphone launched back in February, but was crucially missing 4G Voice over LTE support on its second SIM card. It is now receiving an update in India unlocking Voice over LTE on the two SIM card slots. The update is V2.22A version and along with the new functionality, it brings better system stability and some user interface tweaks.

Villa stars Downing and Bent target three points at Stoke to lift spirits of ill boss Houllier
Aston Villa winger Stewart Downing has targeted three points against Stoke tomorrow in a bid to provide a boost to absent manager Gerard Houllier.
Houllier will spend the Easter weekend under observation at the Queen Elizabeth Hospital in Birmingham after falling ill on Wednesday night.
Assistant boss Gary McAllister will take charge tomorrow and it remains to be seen whether Houllier will return to the dugout before the end of the season.
Doing it for the gaffer: Bent and team-mate Downing hope they can lift the spirits of hospitalised gaffer Houllier
Out for the season: Houllier is unlikely to return this term
England winger Downing told the club's website: 'Obviously, everyone at the club is concerned for the manager.
'It's never nice, an experience like this, especially for his family. But the news is that he's going to be all right and that's pleasing and reassuring. A good win against Stoke on Saturday will help him no doubt.
'In fact, the last couple of weeks have been good and I'm sure the gaffer will want us to continue in this vein.
'That's what Gary McAllister told us, that the gaffer wants us to carry on playing like we're playing and to win as many points as we can between now and the end of the season.
'Hopefully, a good result on Saturday will be the perfect boost for him.'
Striker Darren Bent echoed Downing's sentiments, saying: 'All of the players wish the gaffer a speedy recovery.
'We want him to be back as soon as possible. But his health comes first and we need him to get better and hopefully he'll be back soon.'

What Does It Mean to Default On Your Loan?
When a student loan has gone into default, it means that the borrower has failed to make payments on time. This does not mean missing one or two payments. This means that you have failed to make payments for 270 days consecutively.
Why do Student Loan Defaults Happen?
Student loan defaults happen for a variety of reasons. Usually misinformation or lack of money to repay their student loans. Sometimes borrowers move without sending new contact information to their lender or loan servicer so they never received repayment information. Some borrowers believe that if they didn't complete their degree, or if they can't find a job, they don't have to repay their student loans.
Regardless of your situation, student loans must be repaid or other arrangements must be made with your lender or loan servicer to prevent default.
Keep Your Lender In The Know
Whenever anything changes about your life that may affect your loan, make sure you notify your lender right away. For instance, if you’re moving, let them know your new address. Or if you have graduated college. Likewise, let your lender know if you have dropped out of school or plan on transferring to a different school. It is vitally important to let your lender know anything and everything that may affect your ability to repay your loan. It would be really unfortunate if you went into default because you didn't receive your bill!
Consider Deferment or a Forbearance
One way to avoid default is to apply for student loan deferment or forbearance. This helps to postpone your loan payments until you can afford to do so once again. However, you will need to plan a bit ahead. While you are still making payments, ask about deferment. I know it can be hard to foresee circumstances that could prevent you from making timely payments, but as soon as you know something will interfere, let your lender know. That way, they can do their best to help you come up with an alternative repayment plan.
Make Special Arrangements, If You Can
If deferment is not an option, or you can afford to make payments just not in the same amount as before, talk to your lender about different repayment options such as income sensitive repayment. These options make repaying your loans much easier, especially during a time of financial struggle. Again, so many people go into default because they didn't know they had any other option. However, if you knew you could lower your monthly payments, then wouldn't you do it to avoid default?
Consolidate Your Student Loans
Another way to avoid going into default is to consolidate your student loans. If you have taken out more than one loan over the course of your college career, you may be faced with many bills that are all due around the same time each month. By consolidating your loans, you make it so you only have one loan payment each month. You might even be able to extend the repayment time on your student loans making your monthly payments smaller. This is by far one of the best ways to beat defaulting if your payments were just too high before.
Consequences of Defaulting On Your Loan
You already know that defaulting on a loan is bad, but do you know how bad? Just look at some of the consequences:
- A collection agency will take over your loans
- Legal fees and late fees will be added to the loan amounts you owe
- You could be sued
- Your wages from working may be garnished
- Your federal income tax returned may be kept to offset your student loan debt
- Social Security benefits could be withheld.
- Future federal loans are out of the question.
- Deferments are no longer an option
- It could prevent you from getting credit cards, auto loans a mortgage or even a job.
The experience of having a student loan should be a positive one. You get to pay back your debt, build your credit and make your first venture out into responsible adulthood. Going into default is not the way to do this. In fact, it may very well set you back for years because of it. Don’t let limited funds ruin your credit. There are alternatives to default, some of which might even improve your credit!

Kansas City Southern's KSU first-quarter earnings rose 17% as revenue improved, led by gains in the regional railroad operator's intermodal and automotive segments.
"The company attained record first quarter volumes, revenues and operating ratio, said President and Chief Executive David L. Starling. "The first quarter is typically the most challenging in terms of operations and volumes."
Kansas City Southern benefits from its focus on cross-border traffic. It operates in the Midwest and Mexico, running north-south, while most other railroads run east-west.
The company has reported stronger quarterly results over the past two years as manufacturing rebounded after the recession and as the broader economy has improved. Recently, the company has seen particular strength in its automotive, coal and intermodal groups. Earlier this month, Kansas City Southern said it will initiate a quarterly dividend, starting at 19.5 cents for the first quarter, joining a handful of companies that are using the payouts to express confidence in their future prospects.
Kansas City Southern reported a profit of $75 million up from $64 million, a year earlier. On a per-share basis, which includes preferred dividends, earnings were upto 68 cents a share from 58 cents a share. Excluding debt-retirement-related costs, earnings were 75 cents a share in the latest period.
Revenue increased 12% to $547.5 million. Analysts polled by Thomson Reuters had predicted a per-share profit of 72 cents on revenue of $543 million.
The company's automotive business saw revenue jump 21% while its intermodal business reported a 26% increase in revenue. The industrial and consumer products segment, its largest top-line contributor, saw revenue rise 17%, while the agriculture and minerals unit, its second biggest, rose 14%. Chemical and petroleum revenue was up 5.8%.
Overall carload volume was up 7%.
Standard & Poor's Rating Services recently upgraded the company a notch, saying the company's credit metrics and liquidity continue to improve, on increased earnings and debt reduction.
Shares closed at $70.86 Monday and were inactive premarket. The stock is up 34% over the past 12 months.

The 1900s Arts and Entertainment: Overview
The 1900s Arts and Entertainment: Overview
At the dawn of the twentieth century, many Americans were filled with both pride in their nation's past achievements and confidence in their bright future. Technological and manufacturing advances since the Civil War (1861–65) had allowed the United States to become an international power, and its citizens enjoyed the highest standard of living in the world. Most Americans believed that the new century would look much like the old century: Moral values would remain constant, scientific progress would continue to benefit society, and traditional themes in arts and culture would endure. When we look back, however, we can see problems that might have tempered the confidence and optimism that characterized the public's mood.
In the arts, a cultural gap between the classes was becoming increasingly evident. The lower classes, which often earned less than five dollars per week, saw the arts as a luxury they could not afford. Those at the bottom of the economic pyramid generally filled their free time at penny arcades, the nickelodeon, and dance halls, or in activities related to their ethnic traditions. In contrast, the cultural elite continued to celebrate "highbrow" arts such as the opera, the symphony, Broadway theater, and the pastime of collecting Asian and European antiquities. The middle class patronized the museums and libraries built by the elite's philanthropy. They also enjoyed family-friendly vaudeville shows. At home, middle-class entertainment centered on the piano or phonograph in the parlor.
"Popular culture" was an unknown term in this era without television or radio, but it was fast becoming a phenomenon. Mass marketing was succeeding at bringing mainstream entertainment to a large portion of the population. However, the cultural elite remained immersed in the "genteel tradition" that emphasized the romantic idealism and studied refinement of the past. The nineteenth century and its grandeur in painting, art, music, and literature was viewed as the height of human artistic achievement. Those artists, writers, and musicians who dared to be experimental and creative were met with rejection and ridicule. Americans in the first decade of the twentieth century were content with traditional styles in the arts. American art and literature had advanced dramatically in the 1800s and was finally up to European standards. The so-called custodians of culture were satisfied with these accomplishments and did not seek change. Still, some individual artists and writers were innovators who began to challenge popular norms and tastes. Individually, and in groups or "movements," they pushed the American arts toward a dynamic path that would characterize much of the twentieth century. The term "modernists" has been used to describe those cultural innovators who deliberately set out to diverge from established traditions in the arts.
While most Americans had not embraced modernism, the years 1900 to 1909 were not without some innovations and accomplishments. In literature, Theodore Dreiser's Sister Carrie (1900) shocked readers with its frank treatment of sexuality. Although the novel was praised for its gritty realism, its publishers suppressed the work for years for fear that it would disturb readers. Some writers like Gertrude Stein left the United States for the more liberal Europe in hopes of finding an audience. On the art scene, critics were appalled by the "modern art" that was emerging. The slum life depicted in "Ash Can"-style paintings scandalized those who objected to its unsavory subject matter and loose painterly style. In the field of architecture, Frank Lloyd Wright was building his long, low, environmentally friendly Prairie Style designs while architects from the Chicago school were creating gigantic steel skyscrapers. The rising Arts and Crafts design movement announced a transition away from the elaborate and ornate style that characterized the Victorian era. Even music was a center of innovation, as Scott Joplin developed ragtime and Ma Rainey sang the blues. Despite these and other cultural innovators' best efforts, however, the mainstream public remained largely unresponsive to their creations.
No means of mass communication yet existed that could offer the entire nation common information and ideas. Print was the first medium to reach a national audience, but it was stratified. The elite read literary journals such as The Atlantic and Harper's Bazaar, which filled their pages with works by respected authors like Mark Twain, William Dean Howells, and Sarah Orne Jewett. On the other hand, the masses read serialized romances and adventure stories printed on inexpensive paper. Among the works most popular with the mainstream public were Thomas Dixon's The Clansman (1905), a racist view of the Old South; Owen Wister's The Virginian (1902), a novel of Western heroism; and Alice Hegan Rice's Mrs. Wiggs of the Cabbage Patch (1901). Jack London became wealthy with the success of his many adventure novels like The Call of the Wild (1903) and White Fang (1906). Horatio Alger was another prominent writer whose 135 rags-to-riches tales found mass acceptance.

Research shows that the child in early age learns faster than ever, so the knowledge should be impeccable that has to be imparted to kids.
Create your own animal contest. Have the children color various animals in whatever way they like. If a child wants to color a monkey purple allow them to do so. Then cut up various parts of the colored images. Cut the body parts off of the animals and place them in a pile on a table. Then have the kids assemble animals out of the parts. The final product will be a remarkable and weird compilation. This exercise usually really gets the kids laughing as they create funny and weird animals.

Two main things are in the pipeline right now:
1) Replace focus screen. The old one is way too flimsy. The new one will be made of glass. I have sanded a suitable glass plate, now it's just a matter of mounting it.
2) It would be nice with a larger display. That way I can see immediately if the picture is going to be any good and save time by cancelling it if it is not. I think WiFi+Android is the way to go here. I have ordered a CC3000 breakout board. Also I get to learn writing Android apps, something I wanted to try for a long time now. Maybe I can also get rid of the awful maximum latency on sd cards by storing the pictures on the phone (and letting Android buffer the data in RAM). Most writes takes milliseconds but once in a while it takes .5 seconds. That really is not acceptable when photographing something moving.

In a win for freedom of association today, Trinity College president Joanne Berger-Sweeney announced she has asked the college’s board to endorse eliminating the “coed mandate” that would have forced fraternities and sororities at the Connecticut college to admit students of both genders.
FIRE wrote to Trinity in 2013 after its board of trustees approved a proposal calling for, among other requirements, gender parity requirements to be applied to student social clubs. The move threatened to end sororities and fraternities which by their charters are required to maintain single-gender admissions, and seriously infringed on students’ right to freedom of association, putting students at risk of expulsion for membership in unauthorized groups. (While Trinity is a private institution, it expressly promises its students this right in policy materials.)
Berger-Sweeney, who became president of the college in July 2014, agreed, saying her extensive research and discussion with community members indicated the mandate would be a “step backward” for gender equality:
I have concluded that the coed mandate is unlikely to achieve its intended goal of gender equity. Furthermore, I do not believe that requiring coed membership is the best way to address gender discrimination or to promote inclusiveness. In fact, community-wide dialogue concerning this issue has been divisive and counterproductive.
Peter Bonilla, Director of FIRE’s Individual Rights Defense Program, said of Berger-Sweeney’s announcement, “It’s encouraging that Trinity’s president has looked at the college’s social code with fresh eyes and seen just how problematic it was for student rights. Hopefully this signals a renewed commitment to defending its students’ right to freedom of association.”
FIRE will have more to come on this story as it develops.

Unnao teen allegedly raped by BJP MLA isn’t interested in knowing about #MeToo movement. Says speaking up has done nothing for her.
New Delhi: The Unnao teen allegedly raped by a BJP MLA has said she will get justice only when the Uttar Pradesh legislator is thrown out of the party by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, days after mounting pressure saw union minister M.J. Akbar quit following allegations of sexual harassment.
“The day he is kicked out of the party, I will get justice,” the teen told ThePrint, referring to MLA Kuldeep Singh Sengar.
“Right now, he is too powerful…It is impossible to challenge his might. The day he has no party, I will be able to challenge him,” she said in an unwavering voice.
Sengar, a four-time MLA who represents Bangermau in the UP legislative assembly, was arrested on 13 April after the minor girl accused him of raping her at his house on 4 June last year.
The case came to light after the victim allegedly attempted self-immolation outside Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath’s residence seeking justice. The father of the victim died in police custody, allegedly after being assaulted by Sengar’s men.
Questions have been raised on why the BJP has not taken any action against Sengar even though he is behind bars for allegedly raping a minor while Akbar had to resign after facing multiple allegations of sexual harassment.
‘What has speaking up given me?’
The girl has no clue of the #MeToo movement against sexual harassment raging across some Indian cities and forced Akbar to resign – and she is not interested in knowing about it either.
“I don’t have a phone, I don’t watch TV, so I have no idea what is going on…The only thing that is on my mind is my father,” she said. “Had I kept quiet about what happened with me, he would have been with us…I keep thinking about him all day.”
“What has speaking up given me? The government has done nothing for me or my family – no aid, no compensation…I have just lost my father,” she said.
“He has done so much harm to me…raped me and then killed my father. Why is he still in the party?” the teen asked. “The PM keeps talking of Beti Bachao, but I think all that is a lie.”
‘He can get me killed sitting in jail’
“Now, even if I watch a film, and there is some violence in it, I think about what my father may have been through, and stop watching it,” she said.
The victim now lives in Delhi with her uncle, while her mother and five siblings continue to live in Unnao. She does not want to go back to her own village because she is afraid that like her father, she too will be killed.
“He can get me killed even from jail…He is very powerful,” she said. “His men in the village keep saying that whenever they will see me, they will kill me, so I don’t go to my village.”
Such is the clout of Sengar in Unnao, that despite her case making national headlines earlier this year, she thinks people will still vote for him the next time. “He is just too powerful…People vote for him out of fear. That’s why nobody is standing with us today – they are all scared.”
Speaking of ambition, the minor who has lost more in life than she ever had, says, “I can’t study or work now, it is too late.”
“As far as marriage is concerned, people are scared to approach our family because they think they will also be killed…That is why my elder sister is not getting offers,” she said.
For her, marriage is a distant goal. “I will not think about marriage till I get justice…No matter how many years it takes.”

HOT VOX POP QUIZ WITH LOUIS ANTONIOU
Who is Louis Antoniou?
My man, the mystery, the legend... I'm an alt rock singer-songwriter, trapped in the 1960's, born and bred from Watford. I've been working the circuit for about year & a half/two years in London. Last year I got my full band together, so I like to think of that as my first proper year as before hand I was just working acoustic gigs and was very much in a different frame of mind.
If you had to describe the band using just five words, what would they be?
My music would be 'Groovy, gritty, bluesy, revolutionary and tongue-in-cheek (although that's kind of 3 words aha), so maybe provocative.
Who are your biggest influences musically?
I love for the 60's era of music, the kind of bluesy bands like The Doors, Hendrix & Peter Greens Fleetwood Mac. So I'm trying to combine an old sound with modern day influences like Black Keys. I like to think my lyrics are from a poetry background, as opposed to your standard pop chart shit, formulated cliche crap (pardon my French). I never want one song to make you feel just one emotion, I want you to laugh, cry, be jovial, and all the rest of it.
What’s the band's biggest claim to fame so far?
I once did a solo gig supporting Tony Christie. I think I've peeked with that personally.
What’s your songwriting process?
The 'how long is a piece of string,' question ya know. If a songwriter has a strict procedure for this, please let me know. I think mine is sit on a riff for a while, look at my lyrical ramblings I've jotted down on my phone or notepad, and try and merge the two together somehow aha. In saying that, I always know what message I want to convey in a song before I start piecing it together, or what I want the song to be about.
If you could go on tour with any current band or artist, who would it be and why?
I'd love to support someone like L.A Salami, he seems like a rather interesting chap. He's a rising phoenix that guy, I love his songwriting style and lyrical content. Either him or Shame because they're like bats of hell, they're wild!
If you could put your dream team band together consisting of any musicians from the past or present who would the band members be?
Okay I'm going for a 5 man band so hear me out. Front man is Father John Misty. I think that flamboyant, almost ironically ostentatious style is rock n roll at its finest. Hendrix and Marr on guitars, imagine the sounds they would produce! Bass it's gotta be Flea really. Drums I'm going for John Bonham.
How would you describe your live show to someone who has never seen you perform before?
Every show gets wilder, weirder things happen on stage. I recently had my shirt, shoes and socks off, strutting around on stage. It's always fun, groovy and interactive.
Do any of you have any pre-gig or post gig rituals? If so, what and why?
No rituals sadly. I try and do a vocal warm up if I have the time and space to do so.
What would your ultimate rider be if you could have anything without being accused of being a diva?
What about something like 50 puppies in your dressing room, but all different breeds. That would certainly settle any nerves before a show.
If we were to browse your music library what is the most embarrassing song we might find? Or who is your guilty pleasure artist?
Haha great question. Unfortunately my music library on my iPod ceases to exist anymore, such are the current times, but I suppose I'm guilty of a bit of Tom Jones every now and then. Is he a guilty pleasure? In all honesty, one of my most played songs in 2017 on Spotify was Vengaboys 'We Like to Party,' but that's another story aha.
Tell us one thing your fans would be really shocked or surprised to hear or learn about the band.
I'm not lactose intolerant.
If people want to check you out online where is the best place to go?
Facebook or Instagram people! https://www.facebook.com/Louisantonioumusic
Finally, What does the future hold for the band?
2018 should be a big year for me. I'm releasing 5 singles between Feb and June, got some exciting things in the pipeline and lots more recording. I've got a release show at Ryan's N16 in Stoke Newington February 17th for my single 'You Ain't The Girl,' which comes out on the Friday 16th Feb. Come along for the ride people! x

The very moment a woman knows she is pregnant, she starts taking care of her baby. She thinks a thousand times before doing anything big or small, "what if it hurts the baby?" and "will it affect my cutie's health?', are the question that pops up in her mind every now and then. Taking care of your baby should indeed start during pregnancy. The very first step in taking care of your baby is taking care of yourself. Always remember, your baby's emotional and physical growth depends on how you treat the mother to be, during your pregnancy.
Having a healthy diet, taking your vitamin supplement and regular exercise will help you to have a normal, problem free pregnancy. It also ensures your baby's normal growth and mental development. Doctors say that having baby talks with your 'precious gift' will help in the mental development of your little one and also help in emotional bonding with your baby. Taking care of your body, while pregnant can reduce number of health problems in the baby so do avoid taking any medicines unless advised by your doctor and try to be happy most of the time. Always remember, you are nurturing one of the most beautiful things inside you.
As a parent, most of us are concerned about the dos and don'ts after child birth. And you can have all sorts of opinion and advices from almost everyone, on the issue of keeping your child comfortable and in good health. As most of us know good health starts from the first bit of breast milk, colostrums you feed your baby, it is believed to keep your baby healthy even in the coming years. So it is always recommended to breast feed your baby at least for the first six months, researches confirms that breast feeding improves the baby's health and immunity. Breast feeding also improves the bonding and love between mama and baby.
Taking care of your little one is a 24X7 responsibility which starts the minute you become a parent. Most of the time, we can see the new mothers getting together to have heated discussion about their baby and parenting; they have a hundred questions about to ask each other about his sleeping hours, his food habits, his growth and so on…Taking care your baby is always an interesting but most of the first time parents know little about baby care. Bathing your baby, breast feeding, comforting them and putting them to sleep are all a bit confusing in the beginning but you are going to get a grasp of baby care techniques with time. Later on you will even know why your little one is crying from the tone of it.
Babies are prone to infection and illness, and it is heartbreaking to see your baby suffering. Never take chance in case of baby's health as they require much attention at this age. A slight increase in temperature of your two month may be indications of some sort of serious infection so always consult a doctor and never wait for the fever to subside on its own. But indeed there are cases when an increase in temperature is normal; when the baby is vaccinated or kept under many layers of clothing or dehydrated, there is a chance to have high temperature. So don’t worry, all fever are not serious. It's not just fever that you should worry about, refusing to feed, crying for a long time, pale complexion, irritability may also indicate some illness.
Constipation is rare in small breast fed babies, they may have several bowel movements a day to two a week, bottle fed baby may have one bowel movement a day to one a week. So you should not worry until your baby has difficulty in passing stool or it becomes hard and pellet like. Most of the time baby's constipation may be due to your low fiber diet, if you are breast feeding and some infant milk powder may also cause constipation. Change in food habit or change to solid food may also cause constipation. There are many home remedies to relieve constipation but consult a pediatrician before trying them.
Taking care of your child does not stop when they grow. Looking after the restless toddler is the most challenging phase in parenting. At this age they get less fever and cold shots as their immune system starts to develop but new issues arise. Most toddlers are fussy eaters, refusing to eat almost all types of food, usually making them anemic, try to feed them a iron rich diet by making the food interesting either by making it colorful or more tasty (for the toddler).When your baby starts to walk, there is more chance of him picking up something and eating, sometimes it might choke your toddler or else might get poisoned so do keep an eye on them.
Good food is not the only requirement to be healthy, try to prevent many diseases by routine immunizations. As your little one grows up, try to include some sort of plays and games in their daily routine because health refers to both mental and physical health. As the saying goes "All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy'.

UK Prime Minister Tony Blair has said it is crucial for the new EU member states that the EU agrees on its 2007-13 budget this year.
Hungary's prime minister (right) said agreement was a long way off
It would not get any easier to reach a deal in 2006, he said after talks with central European leaders in Budapest.
Mr Blair was trying to persuade them to agree to a 10% cut in EU development aid as part of a reduced EU budget.
Failure to reach a deal by 2007 would leave the new members with far less money to spend, he said.
Diplomats quoted by Reuters said the leaders were prepared to consider a cut in development funding, but not one as big as 10%.
UK rebate 'could rise'
Mr Blair said the UK wanted to pay its fair share towards the cost of enlargement and was ready to give up part of its 5.6bn euro (£3.8bn) rebate.
However, he said there was no question of giving up the rebate without major reform of the Common Agricultural Policy, and that it might actually rise in nominal terms.
Mr Blair's spokesman told journalists in London that the UK may be prepared to give up between 12% and 15% of the rebate.
"We are still far from agreement today," Hungarian Prime Minister Ferenc Gyurcsany told a news conference after the meeting with Mr Blair and the leaders of the Czech Republic, Poland and Slovakia.
"We want to come to an agreement but not at any price."
Mr Blair had a similar reception in Estonia on Thursday, where he met the leaders of the three Baltic countries.
Estonian Prime Minister Andrus Ansip described Mr Blair's proposal as "unacceptable", talking to BBC television's Newsnight programme on Thursday.
Asked if he believed a deal on the budget was possible by the time the UK's EU presidency ends, he said: "Let's wait for the whole proposal and then we will know something about the figures and we can see what kind of deal there will be."
Attempts last June to reach a deal on the budget collapsed when the UK rejected calls to give up the rebate without an overhaul of the Common Agricultural Policy, something France - as the biggest farm subsidy beneficiary - refused.
The UK's offer now to cede some of its rebate - won by Margaret Thatcher in 1984 - comes without any fundamental reform of farm subsidies, though Mr Blair is still pressing for one in the middle of the 2007-13 budget period.
The UK is expected to have to increase the amount it pays into the EU but the exact figures will be published next week.
Conservative Party Europe spokesman Graham Brady said it was "a surrender" which could result in the worst of all worlds.
"We might see less money going to the new member states, no reform of the CAP and it's going to cost the British taxpayer," he said.
The UK proposal will be discussed by EU foreign ministers on 7 December, and by heads of state and government at a summit in Brussels on 15 and 16 December - two weeks before the UK ends its presidency.
Are you interested in discussing your views on the EU budget and other important European political issues, as part of the BBC's interactive European panel?

Last week, I presented with my colleague Lucian Deaton on Firewise and wildfire safety topics at a symposium for continuing education credits for Arizona attorneys as part of the CLE program administered by Arizona State University’s Sandra Day O’Connor College of Law. We were invited as part of a symposium titled The Wildfire Menace: Will the West Learn or Burn? How to Learn From History Instead of Repeating It. The two-day seminar was held at the Salt River Project PERA Club in Tempe, Arizona, to a group of about 70 participants. Lucian and I, along with Faith Berry and Tom Welle with our wildland fire team, were pleased to meet Arizona attorney Lou Jekel, a former NFPA Board member and former member of NFPA's Technical Committee on Forest and Rural Fire Protection.
The symposium focused on the critical issue of protecting Arizona’s forests, especially in terms of their value to watersheds. The presentations focused on diverse legal issues that arise from this concern. Among the presenters were Stephen Pyne (author and regents professor), Kenneth A. Hodson, Esq., Former Chairperson of the environmental and Natural Resources Law Section of Arizona State University (ASU), the Honorable Jon Kyl, former United State Senator, and the Arizona State Forester, Jeff Whitney. Topics included the important role fire plays in healthy ecosystems as well as the important role homeowners play in mitigating the negative effects of wildfire, which is where Firewise and Fire Adapted Communities concepts come in. Several presenters referred to the Firewise program and noted the more than 60 active Firewise Communities/USA throughout the state where residents are working to reduce fire risks.
Look for more information as NFPA staff will be part of a published Law Review symposium in the coming months.
