For starters, this software will likely include courses on community engagement and active citizenship. Questions regarding the prescriptions are referred for the pharmacist, nevertheless the pharmacy technician handles other duties for example filling the prescriptions, stocking the shelves, cashiering, delivering medical devices, reviewing information in order to avoid drug interactions and verifying received prescriptions. Such people from remote areas can order medicines online.
As these online pharmacies are developing day by day almost all kinds of medicines that exist in medical stores are offered also there. My heart ached for the kids because their doctors were only hurting them by increasing their dosages and allowing them to become so determined by drugs. During christmas, Meadow's stocks a wide selection of beautiful holiday ornaments and home decor.
Pharmacists in many cases are pressured to turn out prescriptions at the very fast pace. As a pharmacy technician you are able to expect to do routine tasks to help you prepare medication for patients. They are managing the resources efficiently with the organizations like hospital or clinics also evaluate medicines and make certain that these are safe to use.
The answering services company company later changed its name to e - Telecare Global Soltions in 2004. Important point to get noticed is always that cost can't continually be the first consideration. An individual that finds work with this profession can be considered a radiology technician if his competency qualifies him to complete work using x-ray, ultra-sound, CAT or ECG equipment that gives the doctors with scanned images how the latter will use as bases for his or her diagnoses.
This refers to almost everything beginning with your ordering of treatment each of the way to delivery. Today, since this profession has become quite demanding and one of the most sought-after careers, a pharmacy technician will need to have certain skills and qualifications. You see the drug name and strength and go grab the medication.

The Smart-Yachting use case will enable a touristic port to offer advanced and attractive services to yachts. The port will be seen as a unique platform, an infrastructure, exposing data and services that symbIoTe compliant vessels can automatically interact with.
Motor yachts all over the European part of the Mediterranean are about 5000 units in the class over 24mt length, and approximately 3 million around below 24m length. According to the “Study on the competitiveness of the recreational boating sector“, published in 2015 by the European Consortium for Sustainable Industrial Policy (ECSIP), Marinas in Europe realise a yearly turnover of almost €4 billion and employ approximately between 40,000 to 70,000 people. Even after the economic crisis of 2008, Marinas continued to invest since it is paramount for them to keep their standards high, in order to continue to attract customers. The report also noted that in this regard little has been done so far to fully exploit the advantages of Information & Communication Technologies in touristic ports, leaving therefore a significant space that can be filled with innovative proposals.
The port is an organization/authority and public space for which it is crucial to implement smart systems that can automate business workflows, to simplify and reduce the costs of their manual execution. The Smart Yachting use case focuses on facilitating, through automation and by exploiting data from sensors, the processes between the personnel on-board of a boat and the various actors of the Port; these processes are based on the communication and data exchange between yachts, port authorities, port operatives plus the supply companies in the yachting cluster. The vision behind the use case is to see the whole port as a unique “platform”, an infrastructure that exposes data and common services to visiting yachts (but in perspective also to tourists coming from inland): thanks to symbIoTe it will be possible to automate a significant set of processes by exploiting the interoperability between the IoT platforms of the ports and those of the yachts.
The Smart Yachting use case includes two showcases, the Smart Mooring and the Automated Supply Chain.
The former aims to automate the mooring procedure of the port, simplifying a quite bureaucratic process (it is important to point out in fact that Marinas operate in strongly regulated contexts). Also in its workflow, a significant number of machine data can be acquired and exchanged: some of them are actually needed by the authorization procedure (e.g. the latest route of the Yacht); others (e.g. fuel consumption, pollutants emissions, …) are extremely valuable for the Port Authority, in order to produce more accurate analytics about the situation of the port.
The Automated Supply Chain on the other hand is based on the idea of identifying, through IoT sensors, the needs for goods and services on board, so that automated requests for offers can be issued on the marketplace platform in the Port, provided by the Navigo Digitale platform, that can manage any kind of resupply, from maintenance services to consumables.
a significant list of “needs” on-board (products, services) can be automatically detected by sensors. This spans from the general need of technical maintenance (for an unexpected fault or for a warning condition detected on a system on-board) to the lack of certain goods, identified by high-end, sensor-based, appliances (e.g. a smart refridgerator).
offers can be received, evaluated and accepted/rejected by the yachtsman, without even leaving the boat! In general, the smart yachting use case is useful for all kinds of boats with internet installed in different ways (e.g., communication, navigation, data exchange).The envisioned goal is to attract first and foremost a great technological value and great excellence demand in services (especially for mega and superyachting over 24 meters length), using it as a leading role for the expansion of other nautical sectors.
symbIoTe, in both cases, allows the full interoperability of the IoT platforms, of the Yacht and of the Port. In particular the software applications of the Port (“Portnet” for the Mooring Workflow Management and the Marketplace “Centrale Acquisti”) will integrate with symbIoTe through the Smart Space Middleware (Level 3), while the Yacht will be seen as a whole as a Roaming Smart Device (Level 4).
Navigo Digitale (Port): Navigo Digital is a platform created to manage digital assets and services pertaining to harbours used for boating and yachting. Its scope embraces both physical (objects) and immaterial entities (documents and workflows).
Symphony (Yacht): the Yacht IoT platform is based on Nextworks’ Symphony line of products. It is capable of supervising a large amount of aspects of the life on board, from mechanics to navigation and comfort (brightness, temperature, supplies in smart appliances).
Navigo Digitale Yacht: an alternative, low-cost, yacht’s IoT platform (not existing yet: its development – which should target small boats – is currently under evaluation).
Boat Identification sensor: we are currently investigating the possibility of using a LoRa sensor to transmit the boat unique identifier (e.g. the MMSI – Maritime Mobile Service Identity – code or the IMO – International Maritime Organization – number) to the Ship Detection System installed in the port (see below). This transmitter will be controlled by the Symphony platform on board.
Ship Detection System: the ship detection system might be based on a LoRa Antenna, capturing the ID of the yacht sent from the Boat Identification Sensor. It will interact with the Port IoT Platform (Navigo Digitale).
Wheelhouse & Navigation systems sensors: GPS and other navigation sensors will be used to track the latest routes of the ship, an information that must be provided in the Smart Mooring workflow. They will be controlled by the Symphony platform on board.
Positioning Sensors: positioning sensors for the wharves will detect when the berthing of the yacht has finally taken place. The details of the actual strategies to use (e.g. installing in the berths high-sensitivity infrared proximity/ultrasonic sensors or exploiting the positioning data of the yacht transmitted through LoRaWAN) is still to be defined. In any case their information will be managed by the Port IoT Platform (Navigo Digitale).
Engine Control Room’s sensors: sensors in the Engine Control Room (Engine RPM, Fuel level, Bilge pumps status, …) will be used to identify defective conditions and maintenance needs. These sensors will be controlled by the Symphony platform on board.
Sensors from Smart Appliances: they can identify the need for resupplying goods on-board (e.g. a smart fridge detecting when wine stocks are getting low). They will be supervised by the Symphony platform on board.
This scenario is still in the implementation phase and the symbIoTe partners Navigo and Nextworks are working to finalise it before the actual integration with symbIote components takes place.
The trial will be implemented in the Port of Viareggio, in the Tuscan coast of Italy, where Navigo’s headquarters are located and where Navigo has already established a partnership with the local Port Authority.
Nextworks on the other hand currently works with some important Italian Yacht manufacturers, so it will be possible to test the use case in a real-life context.

Overview: Low-cal diets and aerobics have been the typical "prescribed solution" to healthy weight loss. However, with numerous fad diets and a multi-billion dollar industry dedicated to weight management, shedding a few kilos should be easy. Sadly, the weight lost by dieters is almost always recouped. Consequently, many users fall into the "yo-yo trap," a recurring cycle of weight loss and gain. There are several reasons why this occurs and why food restriction for the purpose of healthy weight loss should be circumvented. Each time the body is deprived of essential nutrients, whether from fasting or dieting, it guarantees survival by diminishing the metabolic rate in order to reimburse for fewer calories.
Energy is stored so efficiently in fatty tissues that someone of normal weight can survive for weeks without eating. Furthermore, the desire to binge after food restriction, although disheartening to dieters is another built-in survival mechanism intended to click on after a famine. Our cellular metabolism is too innocent to tell the difference between self-imposed starvation and life-threatening famine. One of the most healthy weight loss ways to treat obesity is to combine exercise with proper diet. It is not a matter of how much an individual eats, but what they eat is important.
Rather than restrictive dieting, simply learning how to eat in a healthy and balanced way can have a major impact on weight control. Incorporating healthier eating habits into your lifestyle can improve your overall health and help you achieve a permanent and healthy weight loss. Both natural alternative and conventional medicine agree that we should consume whole foods with less fat and animal protein, with the minimal amount of processed, adulterated, fried, or sweetened preservatives, and eat more complex carbohydrates, especially whole grains rich in fiber, and at least five servings daily of fruits and vegetables. Lowering dietary fat and increasing physical activity are the two key factors to realize healthy weight loss. Eating well-balanced meals at regular intervals during the day (usually four to five hours apart) stabilizes blood sugar and helps you manage your appetite. Whole dietary fiber foods can have a major impact on weight gain as evident by the almost complete lack of obesity in cultures that consume a diet in fiber. Fiber has been shown to not only reduce serum cholesterol, but to also pull dietary fat from the body into the feces. Other benefits of roughage include increasing chewing time, thus slowing down the eating process and inducing satiety, preventing constipation and stabilizing blood glucose levels. Whole grains (wheat, oats, rice, rye, barley, millet) have the highest level of fiber, followed by legumes, nuts and seeds, root vegetables (potatoes, turnips, beets, carrots), fruits, and leafy, green vegetables. To attain healthy weight loss alcohol should be shunned or minimized, since it has been found to act like a fat in the body and promote weight gain.
Cigarettes, which are smoked by many people to control their weight, also appear to shove extra flab to the abdomen. Medical and scientific data also point to the advantages of moving towards a vegetable-based diet. A diet low in animal protein, along with exercise and stress-reduction measures, can actually reverse cardiovascular disease. Summary: Healthy weight loss yields a positive psychological gain, increases overall body fitness, tones the muscles and rouses self-confidence. Positive mental health is an essential part of the concept of total health. Healthy weight loss improves psychological health, which eventually, helps in sustaining the correct weight. It offers a general dietary and lifestyle pattern that favors weight maintenance even without strict calorie counting.

(Reuters) - After Germany's stunning demolition of hosts Brazil on Tuesday, Lionel Messi's Argentina will seek to join the Europeans in the final when they take on 2010 runners-up the Netherlands in Sao Paulo later on Wednesday.
Four-times World Player of the Year Messi has scored four goals en route to the last four and after Brazil's exit Argentine will be greedily eyeing a possible clash with the Germans at the legendary Maracana stadium on Sunday.
The Dutch began their campaign with a 5-1 drubbing of holders Spain and will be looking to their talisman Arjen Robben, who has three goals at the finals, to help break down a well-drilled Argentine defence.
After their blistering start, Louis van Gaal's side have cut it fine on the way to the semi-finals and needed a penalty shootout to get past Costa Rica in the last eight having only beaten Mexico by a controversial last-minute penalty in the previous round.

DanceNet: Editorials from April, 2011.
I want to thank a couple of guys in the community because I otherwise had nothing to write about. They came through for me at the last minute.
There's currently a dispute going on between a dance customer and a dance organizer.
The dance customer sends out an email/newsletter where he talks about upcoming venues and bands. He recently expressed his opinion about a particular band, that the band was too loud and not responsive to customer complaints, and he did this before band played their gig.
The dance organizer was upset because he felt the comments discouraged others from going to that venue that night. He felt that the customer should have just kept his comments to himself (I saw the email).
Make things better for everyone?
Have an opportunity to express his opinion to willing victims?
One comment I got from this dance customer was that people voluntarily asked to be on the mailing. And that they had a choice of getting taken off the mailing list if they didn't want to hear his opinion. That's not completely true. They have at least a third option: they could say what they thought of his opinions (and of him). And that doesn't change the resulting emotional impact on anyone reading those opinions.
When you're expressing your opinion (in public), you're inviting people to tell you you're an idiot. And you're giving them an opportunity to laugh at you. And most of the time they will. In the early days of this Soapbox, I was less thoughtful about the things I wrote here and a lot of people got offended and wrote in to let me know. That made me question my motivations and got me to change my writing style in order to express my thoughts. It also made me think harder about my writing and forced me to come up with my counter arguments to pre-empt whatever comments people had about my opinions. To be honest, I really don't want to look stupid in my writing so I'll spend *a lot* of time rewriting my editorials to make sure it says what I really want to say. And I'll always ask myself *why* I'm writing my Soapbox (sometimes I will delete my editorial and leave it blank).
I think this dance customer, deep in his heart, wants to make the dance scene better and encourage more people to go dancing where he goes. I just think his approach needed some work (See what I did? I originally wrote here that he was "wrong"). I strongly suggest that he go to the dance organizer to express his opinion and say why he feels that way. This would demonstrate moral courage because he's taking a chance that the organizer will tell the customer that he's wrong (and prove it, too).
He felt, in this situation, that the band was too loud. He should tell that to the organizer and he should also tell the band. If the organizer doesn't do anything about it, the dance customer should ask his friends to do the same thing. The organizer can afford to ignore one complainer; however, if a lot of paying customers tell him the same thing and he doesn't do anything, then he has no excuse to complain if people choose not to go to that venue. Yes, it's a lot of extra effort but it's the right thing to do. Giving a band a bad review before they play at an event is not fair because they might play differently this time; wait until after they play before expressing an opinion.
As for the band in question, they're a "bar" band. They only know how to play music one way: "Loud". They play for people who drink alcohol and consider "wiggling" their butts on the dance floor to be dancing. They need to be educated that swing dancers are different. The dance customer also has another option; he can also use ear plugs. Other people might not have an issue with the volume of the music. Several of my friends always wear ear plugs when they go dancing; they want to protect their hearing but don't want to force their choice on other people.
When you have an opinion, you're demonstrating that you're "intelligent". However, opinions are like a**holes: everyone has one. Now, knowing when to keep that opinion to yourself, that's "wisdom". I think that the biggest problem here was that the opinion was too negative; it did not help improve the situation and just upset some people (or give them something to laugh at). People will naturally get defensive if you express negative opinions about something they care about. What did I say the other night?
"You can tell someone to go to hell and have them look forward to the trip".
By modifying the message, the listener might be more receptive to your comments and perhaps do something positive about them (and make you look smart).
That's the problem with running a public event. People will have opinions about your venue and they're going to want to share their opinions with everyone they know. At least this customer put it in writing so the organizer found out about it and had a chance to say something about it.
He can thank the customer for his opinions and promise to consider them. (good).
He can go around and talk to a lot of other customers to see how they feel about the venue and how he can improve the venue and attract more customers. (very good and very smart).
If a paying customer has issues with your venue, you have to listen to them. That's your job. You don't have to act on them, but you do have to listen. Once the customer decides to stop going to your venue, you won't be able to get them back. Every customer matters! Fix the problem (and it could be just their attitude) before they walk away permanently. At least try. It's better to invite negative opinions before it goes anywhere else. You just can't tell them shut up.
There are other people out there who aren't quite as honorable: they tell people not to attend certain events but they don't tell the dance organizer about it. The dance organizer therefore doesn't know what people don't like about their venue and don't get a chance to make things better. The complainer is only interested in destroying any dance venues they don't attend; they definitely don't care if other people like those venues because the universe obviously revolves around themselves.
In this particular situation, the dance customer's motivations were correct; his delivery was wrong. Education (and a polite discussion) will fix this.
Bottom line: I'm so glad I'm not in the dance business. I listen to people's opinions but I'm free to ignore them. I do invite people to write in with their opinions. If they don't like something I say or do here, I can't fix it unless I hear about it. And give me a chance to change their minds. The fact that I can reach thousands of people with my editorials makes some people take extra time to express their opinions to me. Be nice to me and I'll return the favor.
Last week I had an experience that annoyed me.
I had to go over to Target to pick up something. I drove into the parking lot and saw a parking spot reasonably close to the front door so I drove over and went past the slot so I could back into the slot (some of us do know how to use the rear-view mirrors and have no problems backing up. :-P ). Some young lady drove past me from the opposite direction and drove around me and stole the spot.
I thought, I'm not going to let it pass..not this time.
I got out of the car and stood beside the other car. After a while, the driver noticed and opened the window. I said, in a sarcastic tone, "Thanks a lot". She asked "What?" I said, "You stole my spot". She said, "...but you drove past the spot!" to which I said, "Yeah, because I was trying to back up into the space.". It wasn't worth the effort to get her to give up the space so I turned to get back into my car to find another spot.
Now, this idiot didn't want to look bad and tried to get in the last word. "Well, you didn't have to be so rude about it!"
Huh? I didn't raise my voice; I didn't swear at her; I didn't run through the list of names that was scrolling through my head; I even let her keep the parking spot she stole. And she called *me* rude. All of a sudden she was the victim and I was the bad guy. It kind of reminds me of the time I was asleep in my bed and somehow it was my fault that someone ran into my parked car, but I digress... I have a hard time understanding how people can be so self-centered that they're always the victim and that they can't admit they did something wrong.
Now, I told you that tale of woe to set you up for this story.
After posting last week's Soapbox, I realized there was something else that I wanted to talk about and it dealt with the relationship between a dance organizer and a dance customer.
Many years ago, a certain dance customer (a different one from last week's story) encountered a long and slow line into an event run by some people I knew. This person paid his way for his date and himself and then proceeded to tell the person at the door what they were doing wrong. The actual organizers were (really) busy running around managing the event and trying not to have a nervous breakdown at the same time. They were exasperated to have to interrupt their activities in order to deal with someone harassing the person collecting the money at the door.
I asked the person coming into the event why he/she was bothering the people at the door. This person felt that by paying their admission fee they were entitled to voice their displeasure at the people covering the door.
Sometimes it helps to remember that some people's sole purpose in the world is to be a bad example and to make everyone else look good.
I've run a dance event before and the thing I remember most about it is the fact that I never got to dance that night (it was a New Year's Eve party). I was so busy running around taking care of things and making sure that everyone was having a good time that I never got to eat any of the cheesecakes I bought for the event nor did I even get to dance. I empathize with anyone who runs a dance event. I really feel for them when they're trying to hold things together and are forced to *also* deal with difficult people who feel entitled to be treated like the princesses they are.
Ladies and Gentlemen, that's wrong. This kind of person is not the center of the universe. Paying an admission fee to a dance just gives one the right to be there and to enjoy the music and perhaps even dance. It does not entitle anyone to treat the staff like dirt.
In many cases, the people managing the door are volunteers who just get free admission into the dance. They're not paid so they're definitely not compensated for having to deal with people yelling at them. Any issues that come up should be taken to the people running the dance. And many times, it's not urgent enough to bother them right at that moment. If at all possible, talk to the dance organizer after the event is over or even send email. There will be plenty of time to resolve the issues before it's time to attend the next event.
Issues with the music should be brought to the attention of the dance organizer. That includes any complaints about live music. Leave the band alone! The dance organizer is the one who has to pay the band so he's going to be the one with the most influence with the band. The songs are too fast? Too slow? Too long? Too loud? Tell the organizer. Maybe it's just you. The band, in most cases, will want to get hired back in the future so they're going to listen to the promoter closely. Any dance customer should not approach the band unless they're going up to buy a CD from the band. Again, paying your admission price is not a license to tell the band what to do. Harassing the band will probably ruin their mood so it could affect them and the other dancers for the rest of the night. That'd be pure selfishness on the part of the complainer so leave the band alone. Likewise with the rest of the "hired" help.
PS: Hope to see you there at Beantown Camp at Endicott College in Beverly in a couple of weeks!
The last gas station on Route 128 North before getting to Beantown Camp is ironically named "Rapid Refill". It must have the *slowest* gas pump I've ever had to deal with as I was trying to get to Endicott College in time to check in, dump all my stuff in my room, and help with registration before driving down to the airport to pick up some teachers.
A couple of Beantown teachers wanted to try out a "local" restaurant chain because we weren't going to be able make it back to camp in time for dinner. They were always interested in trying out restaurants they wouldn't find back home. I think I found a winner: I took them to Kelly's Roast Beef. Yes, I didn't mind so much that I had to miss the first meal at Beantown Camp. Everyone in the car couldn't stop saying how much they enjoyed a normal roast beef sandwich.
The Kelly's Macaroni & Cheese appears to appeal to 1-year-olds. The one in the car was quiet in the car for the entire drive. Amazing.
I think this year's Beantown Camp t-shirt is a winner and I think it's going to sell out. It's the first one that I actually liked without reservation. I'm thinking of buying another one and storing it and maybe dragging it out to wear 10 years from now.
I seem to get a lot of Facebook friend requests around Beantown Camp.
Peter Strom's Monday late night "Soul Train" party is still the event I look forward to.
I'm not sure how long it'll be up but there was a streaming video feed from the main dance floor at Beantown. Check each night during Beantown Camp to see if the feed is up and you might see us dancing.
Those who went to Beantown Camp were blessed with two nights of dancing to the music of Jonathan Stout and his Campus 5 featuring Hilary Alexander. The core group that travels for gigs includes only 4 members and they had 3 local musicians playing (including Boston's own Shawn Hershey on trumpet and Mike Valdez on piano).
Before I went up to Beantown, I was talking to some local bandleader who wondered why the event didn't hire local musicians. (Boston Swing Express, including Miike Debari and Toni Lynn Washington would be playing on Wednesday.) That made me realize that some (read "many") bands don't have any idea what it takes to get hired for a "swing" dance. It helps if some band members were swing dancers (Campus 5 has at least 3 dancers). I think that bands that want to play for swing dances need to show up at local dances such as the monthly Boston Swing Dance Network or Uptown Swing dances and to listen to the bands and watch people dance to their music.
Note that singer Hilary Alexander is a dancer; as a matter of fact, she runs the annual Camp Hollywood.

If you are new to internet marketing SEO, you will be asking just what in the world is that? SEO is an acronym for Search Engine Optimization. As per its namesake, it means doing web activities that will somehow increase your web site visibility so that when people are looking for a particular topic that you are knowledgeable in, they should be able to find your website.
It is so important now days to have your website appear at least in the top three pages of a web search. Seldom web surfers go beyond the third page during their search for relevant information. And if your website cannot be found, you will get little or no traffic. And without traffic, what’s the point of having a website in the first place?
This is especially important if your website fuels your business and without the high ranking, you get no chance to meet with potential clients.
The real life brick-and-mortar world, the all important location, or what retail marketers would call it one of the P in the 4Ps namely Placing, is what will help in getting your potential customer traffic. Good location (place) will generally mean paying higher rental but with greater visibility and higher potential customer traffic, there is a greater chance of closing a sale.
Likewise in the virtual world of marketing even though there is no solid location, since everything is virtual, the ranking in a search engine page for a particular keyword would be considered as your “location”. To get into that first page is no easy task, since there are just as many other web site with similar theme as yours vying for the same spot. And the higher rental in the real world would equate as in more effort to promote your website visibility either via organic search or paid internet advertising.
Think of your web ranking like the billboard charts, if a song is the in the top #10 or top #40 or say even the top #100, you got yourself a potential hit song. And there is a cycle too, your song becomes more visible to music lovers and thus a higher chance they may want to purchase your music for their listening pleasure. And the best of the best will be in the top #10 list and the people would want to get the best music for their collection. And that’s where you want to aim your website in your particular area of topic.
To rank well in your particular topic, you will need some web tools. You will need to do certain activities. You will also need to know that some activities are acceptable, this would be known as White Hat SEO, and some activities are undesirable and frown upon by the search engine and masses, and you got it, it is called Black Hat SEO. You may even be unaware that you are doing some Bad Hat SEO activities, so do be careful when doing your SEO as you can get yourself ban by the search engines and that’s not what you want to happen. Getting ban would mean getting drop out of web searches, and you will need to clean up your web site of those nasty Black Hat SEO stuffs and do the troublesome appeal to the search engine company for re-inclusion into their web searches, which can take months!
So do it right first time and have a little patience, because like wine, it takes time for a website to mature and grow. It can take as little a few months for your web site to be listed in the web searches or it can as long as 6 months to more than a year!
In the meanwhile, while waiting to be listed in the search engine in the proper keywords searches, keep chugging along in building your website and before you know it you are there amongst the best of the best!

Abstract Accurate and timely traffic flow information is important for the successful deployment of intelligent transportation systems. Over the last few years, traffic data have been exploding, and we have truly entered the era of big data for transportation. Existing traffic flow prediction methods mainly use shallow traffic prediction models and are still unsatisfying for many real-world applications. This situation inspires us to rethink the traffic flow prediction problem based on deep architecture models with big traffic data. In this paper, a novel deep-learning-based traffic flow prediction method is proposed, which considers the spatial and temporal correlations inherently. A stacked autoencoder model is used to learn generic traffic flow features, and it is trained in a greedy layerwise fashion. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first time that a deep architecture model is applied using autoencoders as building blocks to represent traffic flow features for prediction. Moreover, experiments demonstrate that the proposed method for traffic flow prediction has superior performance.

I am the first to admit that I am not a marketing guru. In fact, up til last July, I was perfectly content to be completely unknown. But then I published my first book, the necessity of self-promotion became apparent. Obviously, people can’t buy my books without knowing those books exist. Thus began my crash course in marketing.
During my final free days with Amazon for my first book, Solomon’s Throne, I placed ads with Bargain Ebook Hunter and Pixelscroll. I paid for featured ads of one day each. I also did an ad with FreeBooksy. I had done the first two before, and had pretty decent free days, but I’d never done FreeBooksy before. That’s important, because it seems to be the only thing that was different than any other free day promotion. But I had almost four times the downloads! 7909 in TWO days. For some genres that would be considered low, but for action adventure, which is a teeny tiny piece of the genre pie, it was huge. Obviously, I have elevated FreeBooksy to the top tier of advertising. But that’s for FREE books… Which doesn’t actually make me any money, right?
The weekend I was traveling to Uganda, starting 2/16 and going through 2/17 or early 2/18, I sold over 125 copies of Solomon’s Throne. I normally sell an average of 20 a day — sometimes 16, sometimes 25, but I average 20 of that book right now. Sales are climbing, but slowly, 5-10% a month. So what happened in the middle of February? I have no idea! I had done the Kindle Book Review HOT DEAL the two days following my free days (those had been 2/12 and 2/13). But that ended Friday. I had virtually no sales, no even my normal 20, during those two days. But then, over the weekend, it exploded and kept going, although not to that big an extent all month. That made February my biggest month to date, beating December by over 10%. But why?
You see the quandary. I will probably try the Kindle Book Review again soon with IXEOS under their HOT NEW RELEASE package and see what happens. If those sales had happened while that ad was running, I’d say that was surely the catalyst… But they didn’t, so it’s not cut and dried. At $40 a pop, it’s not a lot for a big boost in sales… But it is a lot if that had nothing to do with it. And at this point, I honestly don’t know.
I’ll let you know how it goes. Obviously, by layering all these things for the launch, I won’t be able to pinpoint any one venue as the most helpful, unless one particular day just goes crazy. But I think layering for a new launch to get exposure is a good approach, one I couldn’t afford when I launched my other books. (I launched three books in four months!) Especially since I make things hard on myself by switching genres all the time, I am having to continually reach new readers — basically start over.
If you have any tips, please let me know! And stay tuned for the continuing saga… Will we unravel the mystery, or only become more deeply mired? That is the question!

But this is no ordinary television show/series. It's got connective tissue to the biggest blockbuster film of last year. That alone means that the S.H.I.E.L.D. trailer would get a lot of buzz. The fact that it also comes from the director/writer of that show, and he directed and co-wrote the pilot is another major reason eyeballs will not only be on this tease for the series, but the show as well.
Joss Whedon has moved from talented writer, to cult creator, to frustrated genius, to blockbuster film maker over the past decade+. It's about time that people outside Whedonesque got note of the amazing work this storyteller can do. Avengers let him burst forth onto the silver screen with a vengeance and now he'll have an opportunity to blend the D.N.A. of that film into the television world.
The viral campaign for the show has also kicked into high gear with the launch of the We Are The Rising website. Not much is there yet, but as we move closer to the launch of the series you can expect more content to be added. The network has a lot riding on this show. And so does Marvel. It's their first big jump into live action series.

I've seen many space films—Armaggedon, Deep Impact, Apollo 13—and they've all taught me one thing: space travel isn't easy. Something inevitably goes wrong, whether it's during the launch, refueling at the space station, a mechanical issue with the craft, or a problem with re-entry. I've always wondered what it would be like to go to space, so after hearing about Kerbal Space Program, a space flight simulation game, I thought "Here’s my change to do it the easy way." Nope.
The first thing you’ll notice about KSP is how incredibly complex it is. To begin with, you must design your own space craft. The tutorial eases you through the ins and outs of building one with lots of cool features, but the bare essentials are a command module and an engine. There are different types of command modules, and engines come in various shapes, sizes, and fuel types. Initially I opted for the simplest approach—give it engines—lots of them. But I discovered quickly that the key to a good craft is more than the engines. You can attach various modules to the craft to make it more stable, as well as wings, struts, fuel tanks, wheels (if you want to go for a horizontal launch), and parachutes (to help the command module land safely). You can also get decouplers to create stages for your craft’s flight. For example, once an engine has run out of fuel the decoupler will eject it from the body of the ship, allowing another set of engines to start-up. There’s a lot of customization, and modding is also available, so the possibilities are endless. Whether you want to build a rocket that will take you to the furthest reaches of the solar system, or a tiny probe to map the Mun, KSP gives you a great deal of freedom. However, it can take a lot of fine tuning to get your craft ready for flying, and even then a small problem can lead to catastrophe for your Kerbals.
How do I fly this thing?!?
If you thought building a craft was complicated, wait until you get to the launch screen. This is the moment when you'll launch your craft into the ocean, the ground, or ideally, space. If you fail to lift off at all, it will simply explode on the launch pad. There's an array of controls which, to the average person, will seem completely incomprehensible. The most important control is a blue circle at the bottom of the screen, near the middle. This represents the direction you're heading and tilts as your craft does. The gauge on the left shows the throttle, and on the right is the amount of G force. You can also see whether you have RCS and SAS enabled. I have no idea what they do, but I assume they're good things, so I keep them on pretty much the whole time by pressing R and T. The various stages of your craft are shown on the left, and the top middle display shows your altitude. There's a lot you need to take into consideration in order to properly fly a craft in KSP, but for your first few attempts it's best to keep it simple. Enable SAS and RCS, then press and hold space-bar. Hopefully, your craft's engines have kicked in, and hopefully it's gaining altitude and not exploding into a millions of pieces. Although to be honest, watching your engines breaking away from the body of your craft and ping off in all directions is phenomenally entertaining. Failure isn't always a bad thing!
That said, failure can get very frustrating very quickly. One of the main problems with KSP is that it is largely a trial-and-error game. You could spend a great deal of time revising and tweaking your craft, only to find the smallest change spells doom for the whole thing. You also have to do a lot of searching through the various parts available to find the right one to fit the job. There are a lot of engine parts offered, for example, and they all come in different shapes and sizes. Yet to the non-astronauts among us, most of the technical jargon means absolutely nothing. All I'm looking for is an engine that will throw a load of smoke and fire everywhere and make my craft fly; is that too much to ask for?!? During one of my first attempts, I picked an engine that didn’t do any of that, but instead caused my rocket to flop around and explode! You can strap as many rockets onto your craft as you want, but that doesn't guarantee a safe journey or that you'll even be able to achieve an orbit around the planet. For a game that’s supposed to be about space exploration, actually getting into space in the first place can be a disheartening experience. With that said, once you get a handle on the game and achieve your first orbit, the rest is a walk in the park.
I recommend watching or reading tutorials online that tell you how to achieve orbit, as there are various stages of flight that you need to understand before you can start sending your first Kerbals to the Mun and, eventually, other planets. You'll probably kill off a lot of them in the process, but don't feel guilty. They knew the risks when they signed up for the mission. After all, they're Kerbals; they're born for this sort of thing. You will have a great sense of accomplishment when you land your first craft successfully on the Mun without it blowing up, and then return the craft and the Kerbal to the planet safely. But that's not all there is to this game, as beyond your planet's 2 moons there are 6 additional planets to explore, complete with their own moons as well! For less than £20 (at the time of writing), KSP is a great way to relax, explore the wonders of the solar system, and send little smiling people to their untimely deaths.

Remember that with the so many worksheets available, choose one that is best suited for a certain lesson. Plan ahead what type of worksheet to use for a given day, depending on what you plan to teach. It is important to learn letter first. The children must need to know how to write letters in printable form. After that, they can be taught how to write cursive. Writing cursives is not as easy as writing letters in printable form.

DesignEvo Review: The Easiest Logo maker.
A professional logo allows you to recognize the company to which it refers with almost immediate effect. The task of the logo is to inspire trust and superiority over your brand. Furthermore, there is usually a tendency to accompany the logo with a slogan, called payoff, which helps to strengthen the brand’s identity. In this article, you will find the easiest tools to create online logos in a way that is not only simple, but also affordable.
The tool I recommend is DesignEvo, the online service where you can make your own logo from a template. Write the type of the company or activity, choose a template, select the font and the color and here is that in a few minutes you have your logo. Of course, you could use it only as a platform to present your idea to the graphic that will end up making it unique and the only one in circulation.
You can get started by clicking the ”make a free logo” button on the homepage. In a matter of seconds, a large number of logo templates for your business will come out before your eyes. As you scroll down the page, you will see that DesignEvo will continue to generate more logos in terms of popularity. Or you can enter keywords in the search box, so you can quickly get to the type of logo template according to your needs.
Check a favorite logo to enter your logo’s name and slogan, and you can further customize your logo. DesignEvo offers so many editing options that you can extensively edit your logo (change icon, font, shape, background). You can also be able to change the fonts, colors, layers and other effects that best fit your aspirations. Anyway, DesignEvo allows you to change your original logo so that it is unrecognizable!
At last, it is better to make space changes or font size to finalize your logo. What’s more, you can click the “preview” button to see how it will appear on business cards, blog title or t-shirts for example. Once you are satisfied with the final result, you can choose to download on your PC.
A basic package is available at $ 24.99. In contrast, a plus package costs $ 49.99. With paid logos, you will receive all the necessary files so that you can use it for your printing as well as in social networks. Besides, you can go back to the site and modify it whenever you want.
Like this, there is one more online software called DesignCap, which is used to create high quality posters and flyers.
I am sure that you want to try out DesignEvo and make your own logo now? It is not only a web-based logo maker, but also supports desktop software & mobile App. With DesignEvo, it is possible to design the logo in less than 10 minutes and creation is a very intuitive and simple task, even for those without design expertise.

At GDC this week, Nintendo released an updated list of the ten best-selling indie games on the Switch.
At a GDC session, which was attended by Kotaku, Nintendo revealed that familiar indie hits Stardew Valley, Shovel Knight, Celeste, Golf Story, Enter the Gungeon and Overcooked had made the list for the second consecutive year.
There were four new entries on the list, which is not in order of sales volume: Overcooked 2, Undertale, Dead Cells and Graceful Explosion Machine.
In a Nintendo Direct presentation this week, the company underlined its close relationship with Xbox by announcing that StudioMDHR's celebrated Cuphead will launch on Switch in April.
Microsoft's Chris Charla later confirmed that the former Xbox exclusive's launch will also bring the rollout of Xbox Live features on Nintendo's console.
Correction: A previous version of this story stated that the list indicated sales volume, and that Stardew Valley was the best-selling indie game on the Switch. The article had been edited to reflect that Nintendo's list was in no particular order.

With the new trailer for Pet Sematary arriving yesterday (here) you may have – if you’re a big fan of the original novel from Stephen King – noticed a big change in the plot.
In King’s book it was the little boy, Gage Creed, who gets killed by a truck and then gets resurrected when his devastated father buried him in the local Pet Sematary which had a habit of bringing back the dead.
However, in the new movie it’s Ellie, the big sister who meets the gruesome fate.
Now, I’m perfectly fine with books and movies taking liberties with each other – just the other night I was talking to my daughter (a massive Roald Dahl fan) about the movies based on his books and she asked why Fantastic Mr Fox deviates so much from the source material and I told her that when you adapt a book you have two choices: Make it really faithful and you have a live-action book OR change it a great deal and you have two different versions of the same tale.
So I’m not that fussed about it being a direct adaptation.
However, I do take issue with changes just ‘because’.
But the film-makers have given an in-depth explanation: “By having the elder child in the Creed family as a central character of our film we were able to explore the dual themes of family and death in a deeper way. And Ellie being older than her brother allowed other characters to interact with her in a way that a toddler simply couldn’t.” is the general consensus.
We’ll see how it all pans out when it hits cinemas but for now, we’re cautiously optimistic.

Things are going from bad to worse for the largest video game retailer in the world.
According to a report published by GameStop, 2018’s third quarter was a disaster: The company reported a net loss of 488 million USD, compared to net profits of just over 55 million USD from the same time last year. This is after the company announced the sale of its Spring Mobile operations for 700 million USD last month, and it opened itself up for a full-scale buyout in June.
GameStop’s report also indicates that used game sales, its bread and butter, declined by 13.4 percent. That said, new game sales went up by 10.4 percent and hardware went up by 12.3 percent. The report also insists that the company’s Black Friday sales were strong. Despite this, other costs put GameStop’s books firmly in the red.
But like I said years ago but only started writing back in June (because I’m a huge coward), the writing remains on the wall. Blockbuster franchises are experiencing the end of the digital/physical binary, such as Black Ops IIII‘s astronomically one-sided sale demographics after its release in October. A model of the next Xbox is rumoured to ship without a disc drive. Video games are expected to be all-digital within the next half-decade. And mobile games simply won’t stop eating up more of the industry’s market share.

Vinegary coleslaw burned my nostrils as I choked down bread. This was the first time I tried the legendary Pittsburgh Primanti's sandwich -- the one with anchovies, of all options -- and I laid face down in it.
To clarify, my circumstance was not by choice. Racing in a scavenger hunt, the challenge required all competitors to finish a full, highly stacked ‘wich without the use of hands. I remember tasting nothing and being served water full of my fry-infused backwash. What a day to be alive!
The memory of this enormous, handless struggle stayed with me for many years. Three, to be exact. For three years, a chasm existed between me (a non-native) and the rest of Pittsburgh because of this damn sandwich. I held a shrouded secret -- that I didn't like Primanti's -- that if anyone knew, I'd be doomed to transient status forever. That is, until I had a second forced encounter with Primanti’s during a city-wide food tour.
I sat with friends and shared another of the restaurant’s staples: the a Pitts-burger, the alleged second-best selling item after Iron City Beer. Nose to sandwich with the thing, I sucked in my own pride, trading it with my civic duty. Humanely consuming the behemoth of Italian bread, coleslaw, fries, cheese, and meat patties, I finally understood what the hype was all about. This was Pittsburgh in a sandwich; each salty-acerbic bite anointing my tongue with residency. I felt like I officially lived here; I had been initiated. Sitting in the midst of Primanti's regulars munching on their own towering sandwiches, I couldn’t help but feel that I, too, belonged.
The city’s love affair with the kitchen sink sandwiches started more than 80 years ago. In the 1930s, Joe Primanti peddled sandwiches out of a little wooden cart in the Strip District. One day, he received a potato delivery, and said something to the effect of, "Let's put them on the sandwiches!" And just like that, a star was born. No overtures -- it just suddenly, humbly, existed.
The idea of an all-in-one sandwich of meat, coleslaw, and French fries became an instant hit with the surrounding Strip District purveyors. The original Primanti Bros. Strip District storefront opened in 1933, and became the place for the workingman to grab a cheap, convenient meal. Then came another storefront, and another, and another... Today, there are 30 Primanti storefronts across the country with a loyal public following.
"The Primanti’s sandwich is Pittsburgh," says Amy Smith of Primanti’s marketing. "Everyone has a story of their first sandwich. When people come to town, Primanti Bros. is a must-stop."
The idea of Primanti Bros. as a "must-stop" is evident in the 24-hour original location. At any given time, you can find city residents and visitors alike saddled up to the bar ready to indulge, like Jim Stange and his daughter Lesley on one Sunday afternoon. Jim has lived in the area since 1979, and has been coming to Primanti’s for sardine sandwiches since the '80s. "It is a hometown thing," says Jim. "People have tried to copy it, but it is not the same."
Lesley agrees. She lives in New York City now, but a giant sandwich is always in the cards on visits home. "There isn’t anything like it in New York," she says. And New York is supposed to have everything.
This singular sandwich brings patrons back, time and again. While ownership has changed hands several times in the 80-plus years, the menu has, for the most part, stayed exactly the same. As Smith says, "It's the Holy Grail -- why mess with it?" Offerings include classics like jumbo baloney and cheese, capicola and cheese, and pastrami and cheese. You can always double the meat and add on eggs and onions, if basic pile-ons aren’t enough.
“The ingredients taste great apart, but it is an amazing combination when you put them together,” says Mark Yester, a born-and-raised Pittsburgher. Mark, along with his wife Mary, brought a large group from Baltimore to try it out. Everyone seemed to enjoy the stacked sammies, and why wouldn't they? As Mary says, "All the food groups are here!"
Primanti Bros. isn’t the only game in town that knows how to stack toppings-upon-toppings between two slices of bread. Other spots are in on the action of getting as many food groups in one hand-held combo with their own outrageous pairings.
Since 1992, Fat Heads Saloon in the South Side has been an outpost for a solid oversized sandwich. Owner Glen Benigni used a bun from Sabroni’s, a local bakery, as the muse for the restaurant’s signature Headwiches.
Benigni started playing around with toppings, everything from sunny side up eggs to house-made bacon to broccoli rabe to meatloaf, with interesting results. The city’s other favorite food, the pierogi, even gets its due in the South Side Slopes 12, voted the 5th best sandwich in America by Maxim in 2004. Charred kielbasa, sautéed pierogis and onions, American cheese, and horseradish sauce... is your mouth watering, too?
Each Headwich is named after neighborhoods, family members, friends, and even loyal customers. None of the combinations is for the weak of stomach. "Our customers treat the Headwiches like treats," says Benigni. "We are the spot for people to go when they want that special sandwich."
Just down the street from Fat Heads sits another sandwich great, Carson Street Deli. Some of the menu is simple, like a BLT or beef and cheese, but some of the menu goes big. My fellow partner in food, Mandy McFadden of eatPGH, introduced me to the wonder of the Donnie Brasco -- Buffalo chicken, cheese, lettuce, tomato, onions, hot pepper rings, and egg salad. It’s like clearing out the cupboards into a bun. "The higher the mountain of ingredients, the better," says Mandy. "I like the sandwich to challenge me."
Sure, large sandwiches with everything imaginable on top are not the easiest to eat, but Pittsburghers love a challenge. With our storied steel town past and blue collar toughness, we appreciate tough work, tackling daunting tasks, especially those involving food.
We are no longer the smokey city of old, though, and a new breed of food-conscious folk has flooded our streets. In the past five or so years, we have welcomed an influx of culinary sophistication with new and experimental restaurants opening almost weekly. Pittsburgh may be changing rapidly, but we can’t help but go back to our roots every once and awhile. When sandwiches are part of your story, you just have to own it.
Sign up here for our daily Pittsburgh email and be the first to get all the food/drink/fun in the Steel City.
Laura Zorch’s perfect sandwich would include two donuts instead of two pieces of bread. The insides won’t matter. Check out some of her good eats at @eatpgh.

Wimbledon kicked off the first half in their now familiar 3-5-2 formation, with recent loan signing Scott Fitzgerald starting in the place of the rested Richard Butler in the only change from the Ramsgate line-up in midweek.
Spurred on by a dominating performance in their last game - not to mention the pre-match presence of Haydon the Womble - Dave Anderson had declared his intention to go for the full three points.
But it was the visitors who put together the first attack of note ? with the second of two successive free-kicks forcing Andy Little off his line to punch clear, before the ball was headed wide under pressure by the Wood number 8, Marvin Samuel.
The Dons hit back up the other end of the field almost immediately, with Bubb running at the Borehamwood backline. Bubb laid the ball back crisply to Rooney whose beautifully weighted ball into the box picked out Wales? surge forward. But with the wingback advancing at pace he was unable to control the ball with his first touch and his momentum saw the ball spin harmlessly out of play.
On 12 minutes, it was Scott Fitzgerald?s turn to provide the ammo. Bubb, tracking back some 30 yards, disposed his man and fed the Brentford forward out on the left wing. He in turn played in Wales down the right with an inch perfect crossfield pass all of 60 yards. Wales pulled back to D?Sane who beat his man and, from a tight angle, drilled the ball tantalising across the goal - only to see it cleared beyond the back post. But the Dons were now pinning the visitors back in their own end and Bubb won a corner with the very next move. Taking it quickly himself, his cross found Kersey on the penalty spot and his header beat the keeper all ends up, only to rebound off the post.
However, just as the opening 15 minutes could be characterised by the Dons? attacking play, the next 15 were notable primarily for a lack of goalmouth action ? with Wimbledon looking comfortable and having the better of the possession but not quite finding a final ball.
At the other end, the defensive trio of Kersey, Howard and Butler were mopping up the infrequent long balls forward from the Boreham defence, with Andy Little similarly dominating his area behind them.
Suddenly the Dons burst back into life on 38 minutes, with good pressure earning them a throw just by the cornerflag. Bubb received the ball at his feet and, showing more flicks than a Human League tribute band, he turned his marker and got his cross in. Fitzgerald controlled and, showing good awareness, played in the onrushing Haswell whose shot on the run smacked into the side netting.
Unfortunately, that proved to be another isolated attack in an opening period that petered out to see the 2,356 crowd considering the very real possibility of a Bore draw.
Nonetheless, Dave Anderson seemed suitably happy to continue as before, making no changes as the team came out for the second half, kicking towards the Tempest End. And almost immediately, Wimbledon were back on the attack, with D?Sane beating the visiting left-back and winning a throw-in down the right. From the resultant throw, Haswell teed himself up 30 yards out and fired in a shot only to see it beaten down. The Dons then nearly broke the deadlock from the unlikeliest of sources ? with an innocuous looking backpass beating keeper Anstead who had to clear almost off his line under pressure from D?Sane.
But with the Dons admiring their fortuitous near miss, a long ball caught the defence napping and Bangura found himself bearing down on goal, with the home defence outnumbered three to two. Resisting the passing option, Bangura beat Little?s dive only to see his shot hit the side netting.
At the other end, the Dons hit back, with Bubb ? once again gaining a yard on his marker with a trademark stepover ? spraying the ball across the pitch to pick out D?Sane. D?Sane in turn showed good control and, dropping his right shoulder and taking a stride to the left, found the space to get his shot off - only to see it fizzle yards over the visitors? bar.
Seconds later, Wales made it two shots within the minute, winning possession from the goalkick some 45 yards out and looking to lob the keeper for a Beckham-esque finish, only for his mis-kick to land safely in the keeper?s arms.
Wimbledon were then momentarily down to ten-men, with Steve Butler going off suffering from what seemed to be an elbow to the head. But the Dons captain re-emerged ? complete with headband and numberless shirt ? and the Dons momentum failed to be broken. There followed a five minute spell where it was all Wimbledon, with a Fitzgerald shot beaten down for a corner, Daly having a shot deflected wide from the resultant kick, and Fitzgerald missing narrowly from the second delivery.
Finally the deadlock was broken in the 32nd minute of the second period. Kersey won the ball in midfield, lost it and then did well to regain it with a crunching slide tackle, feeding Fitzgerald just inside the Borehamwood half. Fitzgerald ran at the visiting defence and was brought down inside the area just as he cocked his leg to shoot ? giving the ref no option but to point to the spot. D?Sane stepped up, as he had done against Carshalton on the opening day, and fired the ball inside the left hand post to give the home side a well deserved advantage.
With D?Sane having played his part, Dave Anderson sent Richard Butler on in his place as the Dons looked to secure the result. But while Wimbledon continued to press, Borehamwood equalised against the run of play. From a corner, Moran found himself free at the back post and Andy Little did well to save from point blank range. But the ball wasn?t cleared and Moran latched onto the rebound to fire onto the inside of the post, with the linesman adjudging the ball to have crossed the line before Howard had a chance to clear.
The Dons looked to hit back immediately, and midfielder Bubb made way for striker Grieves in a bid to mix things up in the remaining minutes. With time running out, the Dons pressed, winning a free-kick and corner in quick succession but were unable to apply any sort of finishing touch.

Samsung Electronics on Friday dismissed the idea of restructuring itself in the immediate future. While speaking at the company's annual shareholder meeting, Chief Executive Officer Kwon Oh-hyun said that it's currently unlikely the Seoul-based conglomerate will split into two, citing "negative effects" that would follow as a result of such a move as the main reason for the firm's reluctance to adopt a holding company structure. Kwon hasn't elaborated on what those consequences entail but noted that Samsung is still in the process of reviewing the restructuring proposal initially made by Elliott Associates in late 2016. The U.S. hedge fund and a minority shareholder of the company proposed that Samsung splits into two and adopts a holding company structure while also paying a $26.75 billion special dividend to its investors, all with the goal of unlocking shareholder value. Elliott Associates and several other investors in Samsung have previously stated that the company's stock is severely undervalued and a drastic restructuring they're proposing is meant to alleviate that issue.
Following Kwon's announcement that Samsung won't be transitioning to a holding company structure in the near future, Samsung C&T's shares dropped by over seven percent during afternoon trading in South Korea. Industry watchers previously believed Samsung C&T and Samsung Electronics will merge as part of the restructuring given how the former is entirely controlled by the founding Lee family and such a move would potentially solidify its grasp on the company. Additionally, investors are hoping that transitioning to a holding company structure would also increase the overall value of Samsung. In light of that fact, it isn't surprising that many investors are unhappy with Samsung's latest announcement seeing how the company recently said the review of Elliott Associate's proposal will be conducted in a straightforward manner but is now claiming the transition won't be simple and is vague when asked about specific timeframes.
Some investors believe that the restructuring was postponed by the arrest of Samsung Group's Vice Chairman Jay Y. Lee who was recently caught in a major influence-peddling scandal that also saw Korean President Park impeached. Regardless, an update on the situation is expected to follow in the coming months.

We've seen it numerous times, where a bug leads Google to either show too many Google Ads in the search results or the organic listings do not load and Google only shows ads. It is rare, but we see it every now and then. Google recently confirmed a bug where they showed too many ads in the mobile results.
Google said on Twitter "Thanks for catching this! We didn't intend to show these extra ads. This was a bug impacting a very small number of queries and it has already been fixed."
Honestly, I find it funny how many people felt this was real and not a bug. And then took the opportunity to jump on Google for showing so many ads. Even from people who I know built software and had their own bugs - we all have bugs we deal with. Clearly this wasn't intended. Showing so many ads is a poor user experience.
