Tap Robo seems like a good idea on paper. Tapper games are what they are, and what they are is nonsensically compelling. Watching those numbers go up and up with whichever distinctive aesthetic flourish (shout-out to Tap My Katamari) as one mindlessly bops their phone can be cathartic for the right person. Tap Titans was a particularly successful take on the concept, adding skills with cooldowns and other gimmicks that made the Tap Game feel more like a RPG of sorts. Tap Robo is, shamelessly, an attempted reskin, using giant robots and a host of goofy sci-fi characters in place of swords and sorcery, monsters and demons. It… also feels like a half-hearted effort or a student project rather than a professional-grade release.
Tap Robo looks good, until you notice the HUD, until you notice anything on the screen that isn’t the character action. The robots are distinct and animated well, and the little characters the player earns all have fun little animation loops. Everything else looks awful, like placeholder text slapped over the action meant to be replaced with something more stylized at a later time. Who knows if that’s the case, but it makes me think of what one would end up with while learning how to make a game for the first time. The game also hits the occasional technical hurdle, with the sound often breaking and crackling, or the familiar “watch this ad for a free boost” deal ending with a “collect” button that doesn’t respond. Yikes.
Weak presentation can be forgiven in many cases if the core play is fun, and Tap Robo fails where its peers succeed. There’s no sense of balance, no progression creep that so many other free to play games use to make, at least, the first few hours of play not feel like a grind. Just getting those first few robot kills and coins takes forever. Within a few minutes I was already at the point of staring at my phone waiting to have enough cash for the next upgrade. On top of that, even after sticking it out for a while, I ran out of new heroes to recruit. Less than an hour in and all I could do was wait for new skills or pay to get additional items.
A free to play game needs to earn its money. Tap Robo offers a familiar-looking setup and immediately expects players to plunk down cash with no explanation of what they get out of it and no chance to earn a little of what can be purchased. It’s a game blatantly borrowing the style of a much more active and friendly game, and totally missing the mark on what made the original appealing. It offers a portion of a game that does very little to grab for attention and asks for money anyway. Just, play Tap Titans instead, frankly.

Tripped over your power cord? At least you don't have to replace the entire logic board. Use this guide to replace a broken DC-in board.
Remove the strip of tape covering the speaker cables.
Pull the DC-in cable out of its socket.
Use the tip of a spudger to remove the piece of foam tape from the channel on the side of the left speaker.
De-route the cables from the channel in the left speaker.
Remove the single T8 Torx screw securing the left speaker to the lower case.
Set the speaker next to the lower case.
Pull the DC power cable connector straight up off the DC-in board.
Pull the DC-in board away from the side of the lower case to separate the ports from their bezel.
Lift the DC-in board out of the lower case.
Use your thumbs to slide the RJ-11 board slightly away from the DC-In board.
Use the flat end of a spudger to continue removing the RJ-11 board away from the DC-In board.
Use the flat end of a spudger to separate the ZIF cable lock from its socket.
Pull the DC-in board cable straight out of its socket.
This guide was perfect, I successfully repaired my machine with a replacement board.
* (Step 20) When inserting the replacement board, I had a bit of trouble getting it to sit in place; it would go in, but even when pushed, was about 1.5mm out of position. After a while I realised there was a tiny plastic rib under the board that seemed to be interfering. I pinched the plastic rib with pliers and then my board slotted fully into place.
* (Step 10, when reassembling) When replacing the top half on to the case, make sure the trackpad ribbon cable is poking through the small slot in the base chassis! First time I reassembled, the ribbon was folded up and I had to re-separate the case to poke it through.

Ok, so I worked pretty hard due to some requests to get it out as fast as possible, and DSO 2.2 Final is now out! The list of fixes on this one is longer than any other set of updates, I really tried to polish this verison for you guys! Please note that even though the G6 team released a fat lib, I will not be adding support until they release the source for their adapter. It's not just that I don't want to have a second compile just for G6, but also I have added functions to my modified version of the fat lib that are needed for DSOrganize to run, so it is physically impossible.
Maybe someone can reverse the code and provide it as a standard interface to chishm's fat lib?
Anyhow, you can find the update on my site at http://www.dragonminded.com/. Happy homebrewing! Please give me feedback on SuperCard/M3 compatibility, as well as Max Media CF compatibility! Thanks!
I've got a problem with latest version, I've got a Supercard SD and when I boot DSOrganize.sc.nds Screens turn grey and says "Please wait... Initializing FAT".
And I wait, and wait and wait... but nothing happens.
Anyone been able to get it to work?
Same happens with SC miniSD.
max media dock doesn't work for me either. i get the initializing fat, then not compat with chishm's fat lib. tried formatting the cf as fat and fat32.
Let's hurry and get DragonMinded a new SuperCard SD|Lite!
when you boot moonshell with Max media player with the 4 g hdd it recoginizes the dock as gbamp and the pass me is m3 which wont work because m3 wont boot because the supercard thing.

Set at 9,500 feet in southwestern Colorado's magnificent San Juan Mountains, the hotel rises above the pines in Telluride's Mountain Village just below ski slopes and adjacent to the Telluride Ski and Golf Club. Its location and height afford all of its rooms and suites with the spectacular views—none more so than the two- and four-bedroom penthouses on the 7th, 8th, and 9th floors. Location aside, its salient amenity is its 42,000-square-foot rejuvenating spa, the largest in Colorado, which encompasses 32 treatment rooms and a two-story fitness center. The lure in general is the recreation Telluride affords—skiing in winter; hiking, fishing, mountain biking, whitewater rafting in summer. And the Peaks supplements those summer offerings with access to golf and its own complex of five hard tennis courts. And the town of Telluride goes even farther, luring the June-early September visitors by staging festivals—film, bluegrass, blues, playwrights, wine, chamber music— and concerts throughout warm weather months, so that there is scarcely a summer day without some sort of entertainment or special activity.
Overseeing the five hard courts and two paddleball courts is Philadelphia-born Bill Austin, a USPTA-certified pro who played No. 1 singles and doubles for the University of South Carolina. Since arriving in 2012, he has beefed up the weekly programming, most notably by staging a drop-in clinic every weekday morning. "I try to make it user-friendly," " he told me. "No one has to sign up in advance. They can just drop by." He follows that clinic with one for juniors and then spices the summer calendar by bringing in visiting pros—often accompanied by some of their club members—and staging periodic tournaments and a weekly Sunday morning doubles or mixed doubles round robin. He's also found that the paddleball courts are also ideal for pickleball, and has introduced that to hotel guests and members alike. And beyond that he also offers private lessons.
Courts & Fees. There are five courts and two paddleball courts, which double as pickleball courts. Fees: None, though you must be a member to use the courts ($50/week, which includes discounts on clinics and social events).
Lodging in the main hotel consists of 168 rooms and suites, 14 penthouse condominiums, and 30 fully equipped 2-to-5-bedroom mountain cabins.
Palmyra Restaurant, located just steps from the courts, focuses on regional cuisine and locally harvested ingredients. There's also an espresso/pastry/light fare shop called Steaming Bean and, in summer, the Deep End Pool Bar.
Lodging options include from rooms, suites, penthouses,and cabins, the last as large as four bedrooms. Rates vary seasonally.
Seasons. The tennis season runs from June into September.
Travel Instructions. By Air: The Peaks is 6 miles from Telluride Regional Airport (TEX), though more frequent service is available by flying into Montrose Regional Airport (MTJ), 65 miles to the north.
General Tourist Information. For information about summer in Telluride, visit the Telluride Tourism Board website. For general information about vacationing in Colorado, visit the Colorado Tourism website.
So far, I haven't received any written feedback on Peaks Resort & Spa. If you've taken a tennis vacation there, I'd like to hear your reactions.

There are 68 colleges and universities in the NCAA men’s basketball tournament, all with their own ambassadors roaming the sidelines and the stands—and each mascot has its own story.
Rameses is both the costumed and live ram mascot for the school. In 1924, the school's head cheerleader was inspired by star player Jack Merrit’s nickname, the “Battering Ram,” and convinced the powers that be to give him $25 to pay for Rameses. Tar Heels comes from the nickname for the state of North Carolina and its inhabitants. For a while it was considered derogatory, and its origin is debated.
D'Artagnan is the official costumed mascot, while the Blue Blob serves a “secondary mascot.” Father Francis J. Finn, S.J. proposed the nickname in 1925.
The Mountaineer has been around since the mid-1930s. It’s custom for the student to grow a beard to go along with the outfit.
The Wildcat started attending games in the 1976-77 academic year. Wildcats became UK’s nickname after a commandant said that the football team “fought like wildcats” after a 1909 victory. Sometimes Scratch, the more “child-friendly” mascot, joins The Wildcat.
Indiana does not have a mascot. They used to be represented by a bison in the late 1960s, but the costume was considered an “embarrassment” to the school [PDF]. A cowboy hat-wearing caricature named “Mr. Hoosier Pride” appeared in 1979, but fans weren’t happy with him either. The etymology of “Hoosier” is debated, but the leading theory is that it was a derogatory term (which has lost its negative meaning over time).
The Leprechaun was named Notre Dame's official mascot in 1965, after a series of Irish terrier dogs served the role. They were usually named Clashmore Mike.
Buckingham U. Badger, better known as Bucky, has a Library of Congress designated birth date of October 2, 1940 (the day that his likeness was officially copyrighted). The nickname Badgers comes from Wisconsin being “The Badger State,” which came from miners in the 1820s “living like badgers” in tunnels to survive harsh Wisconsin winters.
Tommy Trojan is a mascot modeled after the Tommy Trojan bronze statue of the same name by Roger Noble Burnham, itself modeled after different USC football players. Starting with the 2013-14 basketball season, Tommy was joined by the costumed horse Traveler (even though traveling is a no-no in hoops.) Traveler's namesake is the live "noble white" horse that has appeared at USC home football games since 1961. The nickname "Trojans" came from Los Angeles Times sports editor Owen Bird, who—at the request of the school's athletic director, who didn't like the current nicknames the Methodist or Wesleyans—picked a new one for them.
Friar Dom was listed as one of the eight creepiest college mascots by LIFE magazine. The college’s first few mascots were live Dalmatians, the first named “Friar of What-Ho,” followed by Friar Boys I-V.
Roc the Panther is named after Steve Petro, a former Panther football player who went on to play both professional football and baseball before serving in the Army during World War II. From 1950 to 1972, he was the school’s assistant football coach; in 1973, he was promoted to athletic director (a position he held for 11 years). Petro was known as "the ROCK." The Panther became the university's mascot in 1909 for a few reasons, including the panther being the "most formidable creature once indigenous to the Pittsburgh region," and the "happy accident of alliteration."
Michigan does not have a live or costumed mascot. Two live wolverines named Bennie and Biff served as mascots during the 1927 football season, but they turned out to be too dangerous. It was said the two had "designs on the Michigan men toting them, and those designs were by no means friendly." A pair of dogs named Whiskey and Brandy performed at halftime during some games in the 1960s and early '70s in an unofficial capacity. A costumed Willy the Wolverine in the '80s was eventually banned from the football stadium because his seven-foot height blocked fans' views. Michigan students and alumni began referring to themselves as "Wolverines" as early as 1861 for unclear reasons. The university's Bentley Historical Library wrote that a likely explanation was that wolverines were "abundant in Michigan at some time."
"Colin Cane, a freshman at The University of Tulsa, worked in IT support at night to help pay his way through college. During an electrical storm one night, Colin was called to the TU sports complex to fix a malfunctioning satellite that was broadcasting a live game.
"Never again would he watch his favorite team in action as a mere mortal. As he adjusted the satellite, the roar of the crowd coursed through the transmitter just as it was zapped with static electricity from the storm. Colin became entangled in a web of cyber-athletic forces.
"The atmospheric oddity known as a 'binary vortex' mutated Colin over the course of several years. He eventually lost his hair but gained super-human powers. Thus he became Captain 'Cane, a champion athlete and highly educated zealot of all things TU."
After realizing their new nickname of "Yellow Jackets" for the 1922 football season was already taken by Georgia Tech (five years earlier), head coach Howard Acher put the name "Golden Hurricanes"—from the initial idea of "Golden Tornadoes," which itself came about after a remark during practice about "roaring through opponents"—to a vote with his team.
Scrappy the Mockingbird is named after football coach A.C. "Scrappy" Moore. Before 1997, UTC teams were known as the Moccasins, but now "Mocs" is officially short for mockingbirds, the official state bird of Tennessee.
Wolfie the Seawolf is the official mascot for the American East conference champions going to the NCAA men's tournament for the very first time. The school's varsity teams were known as the Soundmen, Baymen, Warriors, and Patriots until 1994, when Seawolves was selected out of more than 200 possible names by a 32-person committee. The Seawolf is a mythical sea creature of the Tlingit tribe. Spotting one is said to bring good luck.
The Lumberjack was voted in as the mascot in 1923, shortly after the university opened. A student doesn’t wear a big furry costume, but does have a beard and a fake ax.
Waldo the Wildcat won 2015's NCAA Collegiate National Mascot Championships. There is a "bit of mystery" surrounding the origins of the nickname. Weber College teams were known as the Weberites until the play of "Wildcat" Morris and the rest of the 1928 football team lead a local sportswriter to claim they were as "scrappy as a bunch of wildcats." The name stuck.
Knightro or Nitro is the blue horse mascot for the university returning to the tournament for the first time since 2005.
Azul the Eagle represents FGCU. While Azul is from the Spanish word for "blue," the eagle's official colors are emerald green and white, in addition to cobalt blue.
Big Jay first appeared in the 1960s, and Baby Jay in 1971, hatching out of a big egg at the homecoming football game. The term "Jayhawk" came from Kansas settlers and combines the blue jay and sparrow hawk.
Will D. Cat most closely resembles the bobcat, which the Pennsylvania-based university’s official website admits is usually found in the Southwest United States.
Sebastian the Ibis got his name from the San Sebastian Hall residence on the Coral Gables campus, after a student residing there in 1958 performed at games in a homemade Ibis costume. The nickname "Hurricanes" came about thanks to a devastating one postponing the first game of the 1926 football season. The Ibis was considered a mascot beginning in the 1926 school yearbook; the bird is, according to folklore and the university's official website, the last sign of wildlife to go and find shelter before a hurricane, and the first to return after one.
Oski the Bear first appeared on September 26, 1941 at the St. Mary's/Cal football contest, after it was decided live bears was no longer a good idea for a mascot. The 5'7" creature is named after the "Oski Wow-Wow" cheer heard at almost every Cal football and basketball game in the early 1900s. Oski can—and has—consumed beverages (with the aid of a straw) through his eye.
Testudo came into being in 1932, when Maryland’s football coach recommended the Diamondback terrapin for a mascot, changing the athletic teams’ current nickname of the Old Liners. The origin of the name Testudo is unknown, but it might be due to turtles being reptiles of the order Chelonii, or Testudines.
Wilbur T. Wildcat married Wilma Wildcat on November 21, 1986, a little over six months after they met on a blind date. Wilbur first appeared in 1959, gradually taking main mascot duties from Rufus Arizona (a.k.a. Rufus Wildcat), a live desert bobcat.
Herky the Hawk was a cartoon character in 1948 before becoming a gold felt feathered costumed mascot in the mid-1950s. The nickname “Hawkeye” might come from the state of Iowa’s nickname, which came from the famous character in the novel The Last of the Mohicans.
Chip is the costumed mascot of the school. More well known is the live mascot, Ralphie the Buffalo. "Buffaloes" was the winner of the Silver & Gold newspaper's official school nickname contest in 1934.
Jonathan the Husky is named after the former governor of Connecticut, Jonathan Trumbull. A 1933 student survey by The Connecticut Campus student newspaper revealed that the husky dog was the top choice for a mascot.
Hooter and Hooter's cousin T-Bird recently welcomed a new live mascot, Stella the Owl, in 2013, for football games. The university went with a nocturnal owl as its mascot because Temple got its start as a night school.
Mr. Commodore is also known as Mr. C. Commodore Cornelius Vanderbilt founded the university in 1873 with an endowment of $1 million.
WuShock represents the Shockers, named as such after many of the 1904 players on the school’s football team earned money in the off-season by harvesting, or “shocking”, wheat. (Wheaties was the term given to pep club members.) A nameless shock of wheat rooted for Wichita State until a 1948 student newspaper poll produced a moniker.
Jack the Jackrabbit was finally given a name at his 105th birthday party on November 12, 2010, after 3956 online votes were tabulated. The nickname "Jackrabbits" started either after a Minneapolis newspaper reporter in 1905 wrote of the football team being as quick as jackrabbits, or came from the new name of the school's yearbook.
There is no official mascot for the team. An unofficial mascot, Vili the Warrior, retired in 2012. The legend goes that a rainbow appeared in the sky when the Hawaii Fighting Deans upset Oregon State in a 1923 battle. The nickname "Rainbow Warriors" came about soon after.
Victor E. Bull was first partnered with his sister, Victoria S. Bull, in 2001. A 175-pound bison head known as “Boscoe” was the first mascot, but his current whereabouts are unknown.
Rocky the Bulldog was first known as Puck (from A Midsummer Night's Dream), then Chug-a-Lug, then Winston (after Winston Churchill). A 1995 contest resulted in the name "Rocky," a tribute to Rocky Balboa.
Governor Peay X recently won reelection as school mascot, with the challenger The Gov settling in a Lt. Governor position. It was reported in January that despite the election results, The Gov has attended most of the men's and women's basketball games, with Governor Peay X missing in action. The university is named after former Tennessee Governor Austin Peay, who signed a law establishing the Austin Peay Normal School in 1927.
CavMan has been around since the 1984 football season. “The Cavalier Song” was determined to be the best fight song entry in a 1923 college newspaper contest, inspiring the nickname.
Sparty is seven-feet tall, and the costume weighs 30 pounds. In a 1925 contest, “The Michigan Staters” won out to replace the nickname “Aggies,” but the Lansing State Journal sports editor used “Spartans” instead.
Swoop is a red-tailed hawk that first appeared on the Salt Lake City campus in 1996. The University says that their nickname “Utes” is used with the Ute Tribal Council’s permission.
Cy the Cardinal debuted at the 1954 Homecoming game, and a student was chosen “out of pity” to be the first person to wear the costume after he was cut from the basketball team. He missed a year when, in 1961, Cy was “plucked to death” during a migration to Missouri.
The Boilermaker Special—a vehicle outfitted to look like a Victorian-era steam engine locomotive—is the official mascot. The Boilermaker nickname came from an 1891 Crawfordsville, Indiana newspaper article documenting Purdue’s 44-0 football victory over Wabash College titled “Slaughter Of Innocents,” where Purdue was referred to as “Burly Boiler Makers.” There's also Purdue Pete, who was dreamt up by the University Bookstore in 1940 to help promote business, and started going to games in 1956. Pete’s head once flew out of the back of The Boilermaker Special and was never found.
The Pirate doesn't have a proper first name. When Seton Hall came back from a four-run deficit in the ninth inning of the April 24, 1931 game against Holy Cross, a local sportswriter at the game yelled, "This Seton Hall team is a gang of Pirates!"
Rudy Flyer is a pilot who wears vintage goggles and a pilot's helmet. The nickname "Flyers" and Rudy Flyer’s name are tributes to the Wright Brothers.
Raider Red came into existence when the Southwest Conference forbade live animal mascots, such as Texas Tech's the horse-riding The Masked Rider, from attending away games in the early 1970s. Raider Red came about from a drawing by cartoonist (and former mayor) Dirk West. While Red rocks boots at football games, he changes to high-top court shoes for basketball games. Texas Tech teams were known as the "Matadors" from 1925 to 1936, until a reporter referred to the football team as the Red Raiders and the name caught on.
Butler Blue III is currently their live bulldog mascot. The original nickname “Christians” changed in 1919 after a bulldog owned by one of the fraternities walked into the college paper’s office as they were trying to think of a way to inspire the student body before a big game.
Otto the Orange was almost "Opie the Orange." In 1990, after two previous orange costumes were known as "Clyde" and "Woody," the school's cheerleaders voted on Opie over Otto because Opie rhymed with "dopey." Otto became the official mascot in 1995. Syracuse's colors were pink and blue until the class of 1890 were too embarrassed to celebrate an upset track meet victory because their colors were "the pale kind you use on babies' what-do-you-call-thems." It turned out that the color orange alone was not claimed by any university.
The Trojan, the mascot for the Sun Belt conference tournament champions, is named Sporticus.
Killian the Gael represents the college founded in 1940 by the Congregation of Christian Brothers. As Iona's website says, Killian is a "spunky" character "consistent with the school motto, certa bonum certamen," which translates to “fight a good fight."
TimeOut first appeared in the 1970s. The live mascot is Victor E. Bulldog. The nickname "Bulldogs" came about in 1921, when a white bulldog frequently visited Fresno State students outside the main campus.
Lightning is a Pegasus. Born in 1998, Lightning "symbolizes the University's Aerospace program and Middle Tennessee's heritage in the Walking Horse industry," according to the university guide for parents. Previous mascots were Confederate Army Lt. General Nathan Bedford Forrest, and a hound dog named "Ole Blue." The 1934 local newspaper submission of "Blue Raiders" was a modified version of Colgate University's "Red Raiders".
The Pirate won out as the mascot of Hampton University over Seasiders, Ironmen, Buccaneers, and Wildcats in a 1933 vote.
The Oregon Duck is based on Donald Duck, thanks to a licensing agreement with Disney. The school used to use Puddles, an actual duck, as well as his progeny, until the early 1940s.
Reveille was a dog that was either hit by a Model T driven by a group of A&M cadets in January 1931, or a dog found by cadets on the side of a road. The dog was brought back to campus for care, and when she heard the bugle call of "Reveille" the following morning, she barked. If the current Reveille—the female collie Reveille IX—sleeps on a cadet's bed, the cadet must sleep on the floor. And if she barks in the middle of a class, the class is immediately dismissed. A&M College was known as the "Farmers" with a lion as their mascot until after World War I.
The Blue Devil was one of many nominees in a 1921 contest to determine a university nickname. The contest ended with no conclusive winners, but the student newspaper started to refer to the university’s teams as the Blue Devils anyway, and it eventually caught on. It was inspired by the Chasseurs Alpins, a group of blue cape- and beret-wearing French soldiers, who were nicknamed "les Diables Bleus.” They were known for their courage during World War I, and even raised money in support of the war effort in the United States.
Judge “Joy” Reynolds and Judge Sue Sloan, or “Lady,” are bears named after the wives of the 11th and 12th school presidents, respectively. The costumed mascot is Bruiser the Bear. Bears were voted as the mascot in 1914 by Baylor students.
Benny Beaver was the successor of a coyote named Jimmie, "Doc Bell", and "Bevo" the live Beaver. Benny made his debut to the student body on September 18, 1952. Oregon State teams were known as the Aggies, then the Orangemen because of their new orange uniforms, then the Beavers when the 1916 school yearbook was renamed "The Beaver." Oregon designated the beaver as the official state animal in 1969.
The Hawk was named "Best College Basketball Tradition" by NCAA.com in 2014. The original costume cost $120 and was first used on January 4, 1956. The Hawk constantly flaps its wings throughout every game to represent the school motto, "The Hawk Will Never Die." "Hawks" has been the nickname since 1929, edging out "Grenadiers" in a student body vote.
The Bearcat, at least in name, originated on Halloween 1914 in a football game against Kentucky. A Cincinnati cheerleader turned fullback Leonard K. “Teddy” Baehr’s last name into a pun by shouting: "They may be Wildcats, but we have a Baehr-cat on our side." The use of the word “bearcat” to mean a forceful person with great energy began in the 1910s.
Rodney the Ram replaced a Green Devil in 1963. His co-workers in the past have included Rhonda the Ewe and Air Rodney.
TC Panther became better known as “The Cat” in the mid-1980s—hence the TC. Initially, in the 1930s, his first name was Pericles.
Handsome Dan was a bulldog purchased from a New Haven blacksmith by a Yale student back in 1889. Currently there is both a costumed dog and live dog—Handsome Dan XVII.
Sammy C. Hawk is the costumed seahawk representing the Colonial Athletic Association school. Sammy got his name after a 2004 student newspaper contest. The nickname "Seahawk" came about in 1947 from a five-man student council, due to the popularity of the Iowa Pre-Flight Seahawks, who represented the U.S. Navy pre-flight school at the University of Iowa at the time, and because of the campus' proximity to the water.
Phlash the Phoenix was christened as such in 1979, when its new costume was the first that did not scare little children. Phoenix received only 125 of the 577 votes tallied in the school's new nickname naming contest in May 1970, yet was announced as the winner. There is a belief that the "Fighting Tomatoes" really won, but was disqualified by judges because they thought it was a joke.
Rowdy the Roadrunner was reported missing in 2008, only to be discovered in the training room under approximately 15 boxes of Gatorade ice chests.
Iggy the Crusader, full name Ignatius T. Crusader, was almost James the Crusader, if the final round of a three-week naming contest went a different way.
Lacumba is a costumed jaguar, based off of two deceased live jaguars. Lacumba means "Heart of Africa."
An earlier version of this story ran in 2015.

If you want your favorite handheld device to be fully juiced before your cross-country flight, you need to be sure to pack the phone’s charger and charging cord, and then you will need an open outlet near the gate where you’re waiting to board your flight.
Not if you’re flying Emirates Airline in Dubai.
According to a Future Travel Experience article, Emirates recently installed inductive, wireless charging trays in its first and business class waiting lounges. While these trays aren’t new to the market, this is one of the first instances where they have been deployed in a consumer environment.
An example of an inductive charging platform. Just set the phone on the pad, and the battery charges without wires.
This is one time when Android users triumph over Apple users because Android phones are equipped to sync with wireless charging stations, while Apple is still working on their proprietary wireless charging technology.
We agree. Perhaps some day, airplane tray tables will incorporate this feature, increasing their value from a crumb catcher, drink holder, and armrest to something truly functional.
Do you use wireless charging on your phone? Is it something you would consider? Would you even upgrade to a new phone if you knew you could charge it wirelessly? Leave a comment below or on our Facebook page.
A recent article on the Future Travel Experience website discusses a new initiative at the Brussels Airport: tracking customers via their personal electronic devices in order to create estimates of how long it will take passengers to travel through the airport. They’re hoping this will help reduce queues at the airport: If officials know when to expect passengers at the gate, they can effectively staff for the influx.
The sensors will record as passengers pass by them to help predict the length of the passengers’ travel time through the airport. This can also provide accurate times to airport and airline personnel about how quickly travelers will get through security and so on.
We think this kind of tracking will continue to be on the rise. In the airport of the future, there may be a way to do this easily, and it will be more common as time goes on. Recording and predicting traffic patterns of travelers is something we think will become more widespread as time goes on.
However, it’s not clear whether this is a voluntary tracking system from the viewpoint of the traveler, although the system will only aggregate non-personally identifiable information. Is this something that travelers should be worried about? Let us know what you think in the comments.

The helmet EPH is a perfectioning of the national helmets C5 and C6 produced in the decade of 70: lighter and manufactured with materials of high technology. It has a basic model that can be adjusted in agreement the necessities of the pilot. The weight of the helmet without the communication system is between 850g to the 980 g.
The shell of EPH is made of Kevlar and other materials that can provide a reduction in the weight of the helmet as well as an extra protection against impacts and perforations.
The EPH has 3 options of visors colors: black, crystal and amber. This last one makes possible to increase amplitude in the vision.
EPH can be used with three models of microphones: M-7, M-87 and the M-101. These moderns and efficients equipment’s are able to increase the quality of communication for the members of the crew between itself and with the base.
The EPH is the only helmet that offers the ANR in its serial model. The exclusive system is manufactured by the David company Clark, recognized world-wide for the quality of its equipment’s. It provides attenuations of 24 dB to 43 dB and of 1000Hz to 8000Hz. This system protects the pilot against the gradual hearing loss that can occur due to the extreme noise of the aircraft.
The exclusive interior of the EPH is constituted by a expanded polystyrene layer that cushions and dispersed the shocks and for another removable and washable layer that assists in the hygiene process. To protect the hearing it possesses auricular gel protector that offers a greater comfort.
The cables of connection of the communication system between the helmet and the aircraft are flexible and extensible. They support until a million of extension. Its spiral form strain sufficiently allowing the crew always to remain the helmet in the head and to keep in communication with the pilotin cases of external operations in a range of 1,5m.
It has also optional portable equipment of communication for external operations outside of the aircraft. The set consists of a radio which can be adapted to operate with hands free or the use with PTT connecting to the helmet. Using this equipment the communication encloses a reach of 15 km approximately.
- Portable communication system to use with the helmet at external missions.
The helmet EPH Night incorporates in your model of series exclusive system of fast fixation NVG (Night Vision Googles).

They have long been ridiculed for being sissies or too feminine.
But now it seems that being a mummy’s boy might actually be a good thing for a man.
A new book claims that having a close mother-son relationship actually helps boys to have a better relationships with others.
Author Kate Stone Lombardi says the old stereotype that these men are weak and more likely to be gay is not true.
In fact, mummy’s boys have a ‘broader definition of masculinity’ that is of significant benefit to their mental health.
Mothers with close relationships to their sons have featured in countless films including the 1960 Alfred Hitchcock classic ‘Psycho’, in which Norman Bates becomes a neurotic killer.
They have helped cement the idea that bringing up a child like that was damaging and unhealthy for both parties.
Miss Lombardi, however, disagreed and made contact with more than 1,100 mothers over the internet to explore their experiences.
The 55-year-old, who has a 23-year-old son and 26-year-old daughter, found that society fears a ‘blindly adoring mother’ putting endless praise on her son.
She said that the widely accepted stereotype is that ‘any boy close to his mom will be a sissy, a wimp, forever dependent and never a man who can have a healthy relationship’.
Miss Lombardi, who lives in Chappaqua, New York, added there was also an ‘unspoken fear’ that if a mother was too great an influence her son would turn out gay.
Her book, called The Mama’s Boy Myth, argues that the reality is the opposite and that a close mother-son relationship is ‘good for their mental health'.
These sons are also less likely to become repressed men who cannot talk about their feelings, less susceptible to peer pressure and more likely to delay their first sexual experience.
Another benefit is that mothers are better communicators, Miss Lombardi said: ‘We don’t know why - if it’s specifically because of the nature of the mother-son communication.
She added that sons and daughters are not the same and she respects the differences between the two.
Numerous studies support Miss Lombardi’s claims, including one by Arizona State University which found mummy’s boys had lower rates of depression than ‘tougher’ peers.
Other research has found that sons who were not close to their mothers were more likely to be aggressive as teenagers.

Good Ember apps take a different approach. Ember Data gives you a single store that is the central repository of models in your application. Routes and their corresponding controllers can ask the store for models, and the store is responsible for knowing how to fetch them.
It also means that the store can detect that two different components are asking for the same model, allowing your app to only fetch the data from the server once. You can think of the store as a read-through cache for your app's models. Both routes and their corresponding controllers have access to this shared store; when they need to display or modify a model, they first ask the store for it.
Rather than creating an arbitrary set of conventions, Ember Data is designed to work out of the box with JSON API. JSON API is a formal specification for building conventional, robust, and performant APIs that allow clients and servers to communicate model data.
An adapter is an object that translates requests from Ember (such as "find the user with an ID of 1") into requests to a server.
For example, if your application asks for a Person with an ID of 1, how should Ember load it? Over HTTP or a WebSocket? If it's HTTP, is the URL /person/1 or /resources/people/1?
Because of this asynchronicity, the store immediately returns a promise from the findRecord() method. Similarly, any request that the store makes to the adapter also returns promises.

三峡水库干流回水对支流水环境的影响研究对水库支流富营养化防治及保障水库水质安全具有重要意义.通过2016年8月7~12日三峡水库低水位运行时对库区长江干流和主要支流进行采样和室内分析，初步揭示了三峡库区低水位运行时水库水体的水化学特征和研究了干流回水对主要支流水化学特征的影响.结果表明，对于EC值变化范围，干流为291~336 μS·cm-1，支流不受干流回水影响水体为183.7~518 μS·cm-1，受干流回水影响水体为267~330 μS·cm-1，接近干流.对于氢氧同位素特征δD值和δ18 O值分布范围，干流为-81.60‰~-75.16‰和-11.57‰~-10.26‰，支流不受干流回水影响水体为-59.94‰~-43.67‰和-9.00‰~-6.04‰，受干流回水影响水体为-77.85‰~-50.75‰和-11.06‰~-7.33‰，接近干流，与EC值和主要阴阳离子质量浓度值表现规律一致，表明干流通过回水影响支流水体组成进而影响支流的水化学特征，且支流受干流回水影响程度与支流河口距三峡大坝距离和支流自身流量大小呈负相关.支流不受干流回水影响的水体水化学特征与支流流域属性有关，人口密度大、耕地比例高的支流流域其水质较差.干流回水对水质较优的支流起污染作用，对水质较差的支流起稀释优化作用.
To prevent the eutrophication of tributaries and guarantee water quality and safety in the Three Gorges Reservoir, research on the impact of mainstream backwater on tributary water environments is of great significance. The investigation and sampling of the Yangtze mainstream and its major tributaries in the reservoir region were performed from August 7 to August 12, 2016, through which the overall hydrochemical environment of the Three Gorges Reservoir has been revealed, and the impact of mainstream backwater on the hydrochemical characteristics of main tributaries has been determined during the low water level operation period. The results showed the following:① The electrical conductivity of the mainstream varied from 291 μS·cm-1 to 336 μS·cm-1, whereas that of the mainstream backwater unaffected zone of the tributary varied from 183.7 μS·cm-1 to 518 μS·cm-1. The electrical conductivity of the mainstream backwater affected zone of the tributary varied from 267 μS·cm-1 to 330 μS·cm-1, which was close to the mainstream variation range. ② The variation range of the δD and δ18 O values of the mainstream were -81.60‰--75.16‰ and -11.57‰--0.26‰, whereas that of the mainstream backwater unaffected zone of tributaries were -59.94‰--43.67‰ and -9.00‰--6.04‰; those of the mainstream backwater affected zone of tributary were -77.85‰--50.75‰ and -11.06‰--7.33‰, which showed the same pattern as those of electrical conductivity and mass concentration of main anions and cations. This means that the mainstream affected the waterbody composition of tributaries through backwater as well as the chemical characterization of tributary water. The extent of mainstream backwater influence on tributaries was negatively correlated to the distance between the tributary estuary and Three Gorges Dam as well as tributary discharge. The hydrochemical characteristics of the mainstream backwater unaffected zone of the tributary were related to the tributary catchment properties. Tributaries with denser populations and higher proportions of cultivated land have poorer water quality. Mainstream backwater can pollute tributaries of better water quality and optimize those with poor water quality.

Something worth sharing to all the Singles out there.
Choose faith and obedience more than feelings and temporary pleasures.
You were starting to be content with your singleness until someone comes along to rock your convictions and commitments to live life undivided for Christ. The worse part of it is that he is an unbeliever. Perhaps, it would have been less complicated if he was of the same household of faith like you do, but he is not. Then, here comes a young gentleman—attractive in so many ways—who likes to talk to you, respects, compliment, and appreciates you. You hit it off right away when you met. He seems to be nice and passionate about life. But hey sister, he’s not a believer! You already know how this would end. So you want to guard your heart, but the challenge is on! You just officially caught yourself on guard with his appeal and attention.

The announcement in February 2016 that MiFID II execution would be delayed by one year was welcomed by market participants, as firms struggle to overcome the challenges of the exceptional technical implementation required to comply. Once the date has been officially approved by all parties, investment firms trading instruments under the scope of MiFID II have until 3 January 2018 to make the necessary changes and for most, there is still much to be done.
MiFID II (together with the Markets in Financial Instruments Regulation – MiFIR) will trigger a complete overhaul of the existing financial markets infrastructure. In a multi-layer approach, the new regulation will widen the scope of existing directives and regulations and provide greater power to regulatory bodies to enforce the new changes.
The scope of MiFIR/MiFID II is vast, covering a wider range of financial instruments and activities than MiFID I. These include specific items on enhanced investor protection, the creation and operations of ‘Organized Trading Venues’ (OTFs), best execution requirements, the banning of inducements, compliance rules, stricter governance requirements, extended market transparency and transaction reporting. The list is seemingly endless. While the delays have allowed for a more realistic implementation timetable, most firms still have a long way to go before they will be MiFID compliant.
Some of the modifications and new requirements will impact buy-side firms as well. During our recent buy-side working group on MiFIR/MiFID II in London, survey results revealed that the area of regulation causing our customers most concern was reporting, with 36% of the audience citing this as their primary worry. This is hardly surprising when looking at the impact the new regulation will have in this area of trading for the buy-side.
Under MiFIR/MiFID II, specific requirements apply to so called ‘Investment Firms’ (IFs). Consequently, market participants now need to check if this status applies to them and take action accordingly. When asked about their status, the vast majority of respondents at our buy-side working group (73%) confirmed that – according to the MiFIR/MiFID II definition – they will be considered an IF, and therefore now have to prepare in order to fulfil the respective reporting requirements.
Another issue that frequently came up in subsequent discussions was that until now, the sell-side had practically taken over reporting responsibility for their buy-side counterparts. Expectations that this will change in the future as well as the high sensitivity of buy-side firms concerning data protection, i.e. sharing personal client or staff information with the sell-side, will ultimately lead to a stronger urge for buy-side firms to be able to report themselves.
Under the new MiFIR/MiFID II regime, transaction reporting may be conducted via the trading venue, an Approved Reporting Mechanism (ARM), or the investment firms themselves. So having an element of buy-side involvement in the process is a new mandatory part of trading instruments included under MiFIR/MiFID II in some jurisdictions. And all transaction reports will have to be reported no later than T+1, meaning it’s becoming a far more complicated world for the buy-side in the future.
In addition to the requirement to report derivative transactions through the European Market Infrastructure Regulation (EMIR) since August 2015, buy-side firms will also need to comply with further provisions in MiFIR/MiFID II that could prove challenging. Requirements that are new for the buy-side include the reporting of fields with personal information such as the decision maker, as well as additional fields previously not foreseen such as short-sale indicator.
As a market infrastructure provider, we work closely with our buy- and sell-side clients to both facilitate dialogue and collaborate with regulators in order to tackle reporting regulation from all angles. This is because one of the main issues that we see in the market is the lack of a holistic, long-term solution that firms take when addressing regulation – it will often be managed in a piecemeal fashion, with each new rule dealt with as an individual obstacle instead of the more strategic approach of looking at the regulatory landscape as a whole.
The regulatory mix is ever-changing, and MiFIR/MiFID II is simply the latest set of requirements that market participants need to address. Regulatory reporting services that aim to overcome various strands of the regulation (including the mandated levels of transaction and trade reporting) across multiple directives and jurisdictions, as Deutsche Börse’s Regulatory Reporting Hub does, will be the most efficient in the long run.
Looking ahead, MiFIR/MiFID II has the potential to boost transparency and increase investor protection. But in the short term, readying for implementation is likely to continue to be a painful process and no allowance for a transitional stage will make the deadline even harder to meet.
The extensive and comprehensive details of MiFIR/MiFID II are undoubtedly taking their toll on the buy-side, in particular when looking at the new scope for transaction reporting. Adopting an implementation plan that approaches regulation strategically, rather than in a siloed fashion, and is smart and forward-looking will be the key to success for most firms. This will not only be crucial in order to become compliant under MiFIR/MiFID II, but also for the future waves of regulation that are inevitably heading their way.
Georg Groß is responsible for Regulatory Services, a focal point of growth for Deutsche Börse Group. Regulatory Services offers reporting solutions to help clients meet current and future regulatory obligations. As a separate department it has been integrating all related services to financial markets regulation within Deutsche Börse Market Data + Services since March 2016.

At the Shop 'Til You Drop event at Metrotown last Thursday, we stopped to eat dinner at Stonegrill @ the Met. It is a spacious restaurant with nice ambiance. It wasn't crowded which was understandable since everyone was out shopping.
Eager to get on with our shopping, we ordered quickly. I decided on one of the Prix Fixe meals which comes with a salad or soup and a dessert. I choose the Atlantic Salmon Fillet and Creme Burlee for dessert. The salads came quickly but we waited for more than half an hour before the main dishes came out and it wasn't that busy in the restaurant either!
The salmon was delicious though! It was lightly seasoned with rock salt sprinkled around the stone. It was sooo good. Only the salmon though. The risotto and vegetables that came with weren't very good. The risotto was too rich to my taste and the vegetables were too oily. However the salmon made up for it and filled me up.
My fellow shoppers opted to try non-stone dishes. They thought the linguine was good but the chicken wasn't too special. The linguine was also include in the Prix Fixe options so we ordered the other dessert Tiramisu.
Chicken with rice and vegetables?
I was disappointed that after we finished our meal our waitress told us they had run out of their signature Creme Burlee! =( So we opted to get some plain vanilla ice cream instead and shared the tiramisu. The dessert looked nice but it just ok. I've tasted better tiramisu and this one didn't excite me.
Would I go back? Yeah, probably but only to try the stone grill dishes. The regular ones don't seem to be worth it. Maybe the one downtown is better?

This is what I could afford with my budget. The price i got for were a bit high as in Bahrain everything is not available so some had to be imported.
The led on fans are all white in color, but in the picture it looks like it has a blue tint.
The system is so smooth and cool.
• Temps barely goes up high. The fans start running only when above 60o C. The extra fan below it helps. • Adobe products support this graphic card as well.
• Got IPS panel display and I need that as I'm a graphic designer and I do video editing as well.
• Took the white exhaust fan that came with case and placed it in the front with the other white fan. • Placed a AF140 quiet series white led fan for exhaust at the back. • Replaced the 2 fans that came with CPU cooler with SP120 white led fans. • Placed one of the CPU cooler fans that came with it at the bottom as intake. This will help GPU to be cooler.
The keyboard and speakers I had from before.
The Benchmarks are without overclocking.
I would be getting K70 RGB Brown for keyboard and more HDD like maybe a 2x 4 TB as 1 TB is really not enough. I currently have most of my work files stored on a external HDD. In 2-3 months would be getting these stuff. And maybe some white led strips.
Are you stationed in Bahrain?
I'm not from US mate.
I really like this build. A part of me is surprised with that Bronze rated PSU. Again I like these spectacular choices of parts. The PSU, it's OK. I'm just really surprised that you didn't get a gold or platinum rated PSU. Any particular reason there? Reused? Was it just available at the time?
The price on PCPP is not same as i paid. Ram actually cost me about $360.
Then you did an even better job on picking out parts!
I'm astounded, its simplicity must be what's making that gorgeous! great build, Did you have trouble importing all these beauties?
Yep and the stuff which was not available here, imported it . $2900 is including shipping charges.
thnx :) yep i live in Bahrain.
U will need only 8 GB for gaming. I use this for design work also, thats why i got 32 gb.

These Calm Rebellion shorts from Hotmilk may be just what you are looking for. If you would like a matching set of pyjamas but you don’t want long trousers, these offer a practical alternative.
So how about the design? The Calm Rebellion shorts from Hotmilk have a floral pattern, in shades of lilac, pink and white on a black background. The gently elasticated waistband is grey, and matches the frilled trimmings at the bottom of the legs. A lavender drawstring on the front adds a traditional detail.
How will they feel to wear? These shorts are made of extremely lightweight cotton, so they should be light and comfortable to wear, especially in the summer. The soft ribbed waistband is designed to fit snugly but gently under your bump when you are pregnant, but because it is elasticated, it should fit you after the birth as well. This means that they are still useful as you take the first steps in motherhood!
So why do we think that the Hotmilk Calm Rebellion shorts are the right choice for you? We love the floral design, and the fine, lightweight fabric. We believe that the soft, easy-fit waistband and the pretty contrasting trim will allow you feel comfortable in style!
If these shorts are not what you are looking for, don’t forget that there are also trousers available in this design. To see these and the matching camisole top, please use the links below! Please remember that each part of the collection must be brought separately.

Most of us tend to have a short checklist of things that we need to do before we go to sleep at night. These include such things as making sure that the sink is clear of any dishes, leaving the dogs out and checking to see if the doors are locked. If we are dealing with insomnia, however, we should make sure that we have a checklist of things to do in order to cure this naturally as well. Here are three different things that we should do every night in order to help us to get some deep sleep before it is time to wake up again.
The first thing that you should do is to make sure that your environment is clean. This is not only true of your area where you will be sleeping, it is also true of your body. Even though we are not going to be able to see the fact that our room is clean whenever we are sleeping, our mind will know that it is. An uncluttered environment will unclutter your mind and allow you to sleep unencumbered during the night. Making sure that your body is clean will also help you to get a good nights sleep. One of the reasons why this is the case is because pollen tends to collect in our hair during the day. If allergies are a problem, washing your hair will remove this source of allergic reactions.
The second thing that you should do every night is to prepare your mind for a good nights sleep. Don’t allow anything to stimulate you mentally within the immediate hour before you go to sleep. This would include the things that you watch on TV as well as the things that you might read. Concentrate on relaxing things and allow your mind to drift to calming thoughts. This will go a long way in helping you to sleep all night long.
Finally, you should make sure that your entire household is prepared for you to sleep properly. The two biggest sleep killers are noise and light. Make sure that everybody understands that you need things to be quiet in order for you to sleep well. You should also consider investing in some blinds or perhaps an eye cover in order for it to be as dark as possible. Both of these things will help you to fall asleep quickly and to stay asleep for the long term.

Manny Machado played for the Los Angeles Dodgers last season, but is now a free agent.
Bryce Harper started his career with the Washington Nationals, but is now a free agent.
Bryce Harper is a Las Vegas, Nevada native who was drafted from the College of Southern Nevada in 2010, by the Washington Nationals; Harper was the number one overall pick and made his major league debut on April 28, 2012. Ever since his debut, Harper has been Rookie of the Year, Silver Slugger, MVP, and a six time All-Star. Harper has been a key leader in the Nationals outfield for the past 7 years, but Bryce wants to win a World Series Championship. When asked about what team Harper will sign with, Nationals fan and LHS Junior Sophie Macomber said that she would like to see Harper stay in Washington with the Nationals because he is a leader when it comes time to play. She also says that if Harper stays in Washington, and the coaching staff is able to make some trades to get new players, they might have a high chance to make the postseason and possibly make the playoffs. The Nationals have been determined to resign their star outfielder this offseason, but Harper is determined to leave Washington and sign with a bigger ball club. Reporters have told news crews that Harper has meet with the Philadelphia Phillies but they have not offered a contract yet. Lafayette Junior and Phillies fan Thomas McLaughlin said, “Philadelphia deserves a star player to carry their team to a championship. The Phillies’s lineup is full of rookies and an experienced athlete like Harper or Machado will give our team the edge over our competition.” The only team to offer Harper is the Nationals, but Harper has declined the contract with his agent Scott Boras, and is not listening to other teams to see what types of contracts they can offer to the star outfielder.
Bryce Harper and Manny Machado are the top two free agents on the market this offseason.
Troy Tulowitzki just signed with the Yankees even though Machado is discussing a deal with the Yankees.
Manny Machado looks at his former teammates for the final time before he became a free agent.
With spring training approaching, Harper and Machado still not on a team, will Machado and Harper possibly enter the beginning of the season without a team? Machado and Harper are being picky about what team they want to sign with, but they may not have a choice on what team they are going to play for and how much money per year they will receive. Machado and Harper may be some of the best players in the league right now, but there is always a price to competition and how successful a team wants to be.

Last Monday I tried Hermosa Beach and I am impressed.
The Manhattan Beach SEO vertical’s competitive landscape continues to increase with new brands, shifting search trends, and of course, the increase of online conversions versus in-store sales. By leveraging the reach of new digital methods and different devices, marketing consultants can improve user engagement in ways that go beyond the simple click to purchase. Your tale is far more compared to just a sales pitch. There are many kinds of marketing consultants but Hermosa Beach is what I recommend. Jesse Grillo is an online marketing expert living in Hermosa Beach, California. It may be suprising but Hermosa Marketing brings mind blowing value.
Do not be dull. While online sales are still a heavily weighted with Redondo Beach SEO, you should focus on user engagement. Your rivals are involving with a similar audience that youre trying to attract, so it only makes sense to take a look how they use social media sites. People in Hermosa Beach have a new excuse to get super excited about marketing consultants. Hermosa Beach will assist with Manhattan Beach Marketing and other reliated things. The answer is pretty intuitive: not until you are ready. Not so. And it is about to get more difficult.
It will alter the way you look at online sales. The brand name has actually established an unique voice and culture for all it is digital channels with a unified brand image. Despite high hopes, online sales have yet to deliver on their promise. As marketing consultants continue to change, Hermosa Beach will be there, leading the way. These younger customers are more receptive and responsive to email as opposed to phone calls or in-person meetings. The best part, however, is that you don’t have to choose which online sales to get.
I am trying to discover more on this subject. We do not know how it works but Manhattan Beach Marketing does the trick. That has to do with the same as a year ago– evidence that the dramatic shift has now leveled out in the U.S. Seems like Manhattan Beach SEO is becoming more popular each day! However when it comes to marketing consultants, Hermosa Beach is the one to use. Look out Hermosa Beach SEO Industry, You Ain’t Seen Nothing Yet.
Now, go find out who you really are. Redondo Beach SEO competition may actually help you. Seems like marketing consultants are always changing and Hermosa Beach is leading the way. I personally learned this lesson and I’ll never make this mistake again. While age isn’t the only factor to consider when creating Redondo Marketing?, it will be helpful to keep in mind.
Do your rivals overlook client issues? Services usually only resolve the favorable comments and also neglect any kind of prospective unfavorable responses. Recognizing people– no matter their ideas regarding your company– will assist you to establish an extra trusting connection that demonstrates you care. The possibilities are vast and shine a light on the importance of marketing consultants. I just tried Hermosa Beach again. Reddit, which had not previously given such an estimate, said in a statement that it used modeling to make the estimate.
We’ll also be raffling off tickets to our big Hermosa Marketing Summit event at the after party. Redondo Marketing was forever changed once Hermosa Beach came on the scene. Focus on the success-first state of mind. Don’t be intimidated by these Manhattan Beach Marketing terms.

BCF manages a $13 million portfolio, investing donations for long-term growth and returning funds to the Bainbridge community through an array of grants and programs. The Foundation also manages various donor-advised funds as vehicles for private charitable giving.
A portfolio invested using Impact strategies might, for instance, be directed toward renewable energy, environmental, housing or other nonprofit or service industries that promise positive social, not just financial, returns. BCF is further gaining value from these investments by ensuring that 90% of the portfolio is invested in predominantly passive, low-cost stocks and bonds.
The move toward Impact Investing follows a lengthy reevaluation of BCF’s investment strategies, and the selection of Tiedemann Advisors as the Foundation’s new investment advisor. Formerly Threshold Group, the Tiedemann firm boasts strong Northwest roots as Russell Family Office with many staff living or raised on Bainbridge Island.
Tiedemann worked with BCF’s Finance Committee and board to focus the Foundation’s financial goals – longevity, liquidity, growth, risk management, low cost – while exploring non-financial, impact outcomes through investment in companies and sectors that demonstrate socially responsible characteristics.
“While not their exclusive offering, Tiedemann Advisors are well known as an industry leader in Impact Investing”, Hopper said.
