The Skidmore family went to Currant Creek Utah this summer for a family reunion. We had a great time camping, fishing and visiting. Matt and I and our kids were in the old, rickety house trailer of my grandma and grandpas. This trailer has been around since I was a wee child. Some of the windows were broken so by the time that we got to the camp site, everything had a thick coating of dust on it. Even in a 30+ year old trailer, we had a great time. We had conversations about the scriptures that we read, laughed about the fun things that happened that day, and enjoyed being together in close quarters.
Jared was able to borrow a canoe and a couple of paddle boards. They were a huge hit! The boys were out most of the day on them catching fish. I love being in nature. It brings me peace. There are very few distractions and there is nothing but time to spend with those you love.
In true Easton form, his shoes were wet within five minutes. He took to wearing mud boots for the remainder of the trip!
Tyler killing a potgut with Easton's bow. The boys tried the rest of the week to following suit!

My brother Jared is what you would call the "outdoorsy" type. The kids are finally getting to an age that he can actually enjoy doing stuff with them. So we decided to take them on a short hike in PG to some waterfalls. The kids had a great time and loved cooling off in the freezing cold water! Jared was great with them and a fun time was had by all.
The kids love to spend time at the barn with my dad. The girls especially love the horses. I am glad that they are not scared. I remember as a kid being a little nervous around the horses. My dad and grandpa did not help the situation that much either. They were insistent that I make the horse do what I want and that is a little intimidating for a 6 year old! Thank heavens my dad is much more patient with my kids.

Barbara Frankenberry remembers when VCRs were among the hottest instructional aids. Now, students and teachers are using high-tech tools she never imagined.
Frankenberry, a library media specialist at Musselman Middle School in Berkeley County, W.Va., said one just has to enter the school's library to see the effects of evolving technology.
Students are busy zipping through automated card catalogs, creating multi-media projects and taking quizzes on the computer.
Frankenberry coordinates the equipment and performs technology-based instruction in addition to her other library duties.
Library media specialists are also certified library teachers.
In addition to high-tech equipment and books, school libraries house audio and visual tapes and CD-ROMs.
"It's very diversified," Frankenberry said. "No longer are we just book pushers. We're really open to the world now.
"But," she said, "books are still just as important."
She said students are in the library every day working on projects and surfing educational Web sites.
Frankenberry said that not only does the technology make research faster, it also keeps the attention of students longer and encourages them to read.
"Things like that make it fun and interesting, and all of it's promoting reading," she said.
She said students in one of the sixth-grade classes at the 940-student school have read more than 700 books so far.
She'd like the library to keep on expanding its technology resources to continue to reap the rewards.
In Washington County, the Board of Education receives matching grants to keep libraries up to date. This year it is upgrading its fiction, literary, drama, poetry, reference and Character Counts collection.
Library specialists from the Chambersburg Area School District could not be reached for comment.
Roseann Fisher, Washington County's supervisor of library media services, said staff members can access library documents from home and other remote locations. She thinks school libraries will continue to improve and continue to promote student achievement.
Frankenberry would like to instill in people that libraries - whether they be for students or open to the public - can provide lifelong enrichment.
"We're trying to teach community members that we're more than just books," she said.

Policies are critical tools that shape the structure (e.g., how much, how frequently, who is responsible) and function (e.g., what is permissible, what processes should be in place, what are outcomes should be expected) of events in any environment. Recently, researchers interested in physical activity in school settings have taken an interest in learning more about school physical activity policies. These studies have begun to describe the complexity of school policies in relation to their different level of enactment (e.g., state, district, school), language strength (e.g., strong, such as ‘shall’ or weak, such as ‘should’), targets (e.g., minutes of recess per day, who teaches physical education), and accountability (e.g., none; tied to budgets).
Most research on school physical activity policies has been reported at the state or district levels and far less known about policies at the individual school level. We believe studying district and school level policies is critical, especially to understanding how physical activity programming relates to organizational structure, practices, and outcome expectations. Ultimately, assessing the intricacies of policy at the school site level is critical to understanding how individual school physical activity programs function to provide physical activity for children.
To help people learn more about school physical activity policies in local schools and districts, we developed and validated a tool called School Physical Activity Policy Assessment (S-PAPA). S-PAPA assesses both district- and school-level policies and provides school site indicators of actual physical activity policy implementation. The instrument has three distinct sections: (a) Physical Education; (b) Recess, and (c) Other Before/ During/After School Programs. Researchers and practitioners can elect to use one or all sections, depending on individual interests.
S-PAPA is intended to be an inventory of physical activity related policies and practices in schools. When respondents do not know an answer, they are encouraged to seek advisement from the most appropriate source to ensure complete and accurate information. For this reason, we believe S-PAPA is best implemented using an interview format. Total administration time for all three modules is approximately 23 minutes. When the entire S-PAPA tool is used, we recommend that it be given to respondents one section at a time.

So, what’s on stage this summer?
The author of last year’s big Ensemble hit, “The Love List,” brings you this lighthearted story of two brothers and the comedy that ensues when a couple of good-looking ladies turn their latest adventure upside down.
Sponsored in part by Shane and Monique Chalke, “Toyer” tells the story of one psychologist’s entanglement with a mysterious visitor. His presence could be harmless, but it could also be something more sinister. Watch as this suspenseful thriller unfolds! This show contains strong language and adult themes.
What happens when two polar opposites are forced to get to know each other? “Visiting Mr. Green” shows us that you can’t judge a book by its cover. This story of two men, one young and one old, will touch your heart and have you smiling as they learn to focus on their commonalities rather than their differences.
Travel back in time to the 1940s as you enjoy this touching tale of four women separated by distance but united in the struggles and challenges of living in a war-torn world. This story gives us a close look at the personal experiences of these ladies as they learn to be strong on their own and for one another.

The new exhibit, Wonder, at the Renwick Gallery in Washington DC is awe-some. Using everyday objects, nine artists created nine "immersive" artworks to make visitors literally wonder. I recognized the name of three of the artists -- Patrick, Dougherty, Leo Villarreal, and Maya Lin. I first saw Patrick Dougherty's stick sculpture at the Parque del Retiro in Madrid. Leo Villarreal designed The Bay Lights in San Francisco and Hive in the Bleecker Street NYC subway station. Maya Lin is Maya Lin. The other six artists are Jennifer Angus, Chakaia Booker, Gabriel Dawe, Tara Donovan, Janet Echelman, and John Grade. The artworks are presented in the order in which I saw them.
I have not done this for the previous entries but wanted to highlight the significance of the title of this work. The March 11, 2011 Tohoku earthquake and tsunami were so strong that the earth was shifted on its axis and the day on which the event occurred "was shortened...by 1.8 millionths of a second."
I'm going to annotate this work as well. This piece was created from a plaster cast of a living 150 year old hemlock in Seattle's Cascade Mountains. The artwork will be set in the same forest at the closing of the Wonder exhibit.
Do you have a favorite piece? I was really struck by the use of color in Jennifer's Angus piece. It's also a great celebration of insect life. As an urban forester, it was a pleasure to be introduced to John Grade's work and to see another sculpture by Patrick Dougherty. And I'm happy to finally see one of Maya Lin's works in person.

When it comes to finding their own marketing research definition, most small businesses probably look the other way and ignore the question.
Because there are lots of unknown answers about customer behavior that still mystifies many small business owners.
In the old days, it was "fly by the seat of your pants" and business owners were judged by how well they used "gut instinct" to make all kinds of decisions.
Along came the computer which, by its very nature, required observations to be standardized — so the data could be analyzed — and the areas of profit and/or loss identified.
Thus, a general marketing research definition for today has to include the systematic function of gathering and analyzing of information related to any part of the marketing process.
This would include the product or service, the customer and the environment in which the transaction takes place.
Quite obviously that's quite a bit of ground to cover, so the small business person has to ask why should I even think about this. It's the "What's In It For Me" question.
Sooner or later, as an owner, you'll have to do some kind of personal marketing research for yourself. It might be a survey, or a series of interviews --- whatever technique fits your style.
When I have been asked to solve a small business owner's marketing question, the answer often turns out to be something the owner hadn't thought of.
Perhaps they could have figured it out by pinpointing an exact marketing research question and finding techniques they could use in their analysis.
If you'd like further guidance on how to proceed, please use the contact page.

Held the first weekend in August, the annual Delta Sigma Phi alumni golf outing is still going strong, according to Bob O’Toole ’74.
The golf outing honors the late John Woods ’69 and Jack Davis ’71.
John Woods ’69 started the event in 1988 at Cabin Greens Golf Course in Freeport, but after his death in 1996, the event floundered, Bob said. With help from IUP retiree Jack Frank ’58 and Joe Bujdos ’75, alumni of the fraternity revived the event in the early 2000s at Indian Springs Golf and Country Club in Indiana. A few years later, they moved the outing to Meadow Lane, its current home.
All IUP Delta Sigma Phi alumni and close friends are welcome. Contact Bob at bob@estridgegroup.com.

Like most people, you probably thought Wikipedia was all about the creation and spread of knowledge and information on the internet. It certainly is just that, but there's actually another very entertaining use for everyone's favorite free source of knowledge — the Wiki Game.
What Is the Wiki Game?
The Wiki Game is a fun game that can only be played in groups of two or more (not just by a single player) and for people of all ages, young or old. The game is sometimes referred to by other names such as "Speed Wiki" and "Wiki Racing." The only thing players need is access to the internet on a computer or a mobile device.
There are only a few basic rules for the Wiki Game, which includes two variations: Speed Wiki and Click Wiki. Ideally, each person should have access to their own computer or mobile device at the same time, but Click Wiki can be played by taking turns in dire situations.
All players must start on the same (random) page on Wikipedia or a similar wiki.
Players must race to "home," which is a random destination page on the wiki decided before the game starts. So, for example, let's say that a group of players start their game on the French Fries page on Wikipedia and decide that their "home" page is the Tasmanian Devil page. The challenge is to get from one page to a totally unrelated page only by looking links that give clues — possible words or phrases that may be related to the subject matter of the home page — and then clicking on them to take you to a new page.
Players can only click links within the content section. They cannot click links from the menu or sidebar.
Players cannot use browser navigation, which means no hitting the back button or the forward button. They also cannot access their browser history.
Lastly, players cannot use the keyboard. Obviously, this not only means no use of the search box but also no hotkeys for going forward or back a page.
The two main ways to play the Wiki Game are Speed Wiki and Click Wiki.
In Speed Wiki, the first player to home base wins. In Click Wiki, the player who reaches home base in the fewest number of clicks wins. Obviously, players would need to keep track of their number of clicks in Click Wiki.
Speed Wiki is better suited for larger groups of people were monitoring the number of clicks could become too time-consuming. Click Wiki is great for a smaller number of players where the player can contemplate each move thoroughly before making it.
If you love word games, puzzle games or just problem solving in general, the Wiki Game is a great game to try out with the family or a group of friends maybe on a rainy day—especially if nobody can tear themselves away from their smartphones.
Tell everyone to download the free Wikipedia mobile app for iOS or Android and get them excited about trying out the Wiki Game.
Who knows? Maybe you'll find it's more fun than playing traditional board games!

NEW Sunderland manager Steve Bruce is set to make a £10million bid for Tottenham’s Darren Bent.
Bruce has made checks on Bent over the last few days and is now preparing a firm offer.
Despite the fact Bent was Tottenham’s top scorer with 12 Premier League goals this season, manager Harry Redknapp is prepared to cash in to raise transfer funds.
He will ask about taking Kenwyne Jones as part of the deal .
Redknapp is keen on Blackburn striker Roque Santa Cruz, who will cost about £12m and has also looked at the possibility of bringing Manchester United old boy Ruud van Nistelrooy back to England from Real Madrid.
Sources in Spain claim Redknapp is also looking at Atletico Madrid captain Maxi Rodriguez .

Last week, I offered some reasons why the Diamondbacks may prefer to keep Archie Bradley away from closing duties. I’ve been snagging value shares of Brad Boxberger and Yoshihisa Hirano just in case.
One of my strongest arguments was Arizona’s starting pitcher shortage. Although their top five is a talented group, they have no depth. Bradley is probably the sixth best starter in the system. Further, they’ll need to replace Patrick Corbin next offseason. Bradley is an apparent fit for the job. However, once a pitcher becomes a successful closer, it’s very rare for them to return to starting.
To test my theory, I took all pitchers from the last 10 seasons and filtered for those with five or more saves. Of those, 65 pitchers also made starts. Eighteen made five or fewer starts. We can dismiss them out of hand. Trust me, it was a batch of players like Hong-Chih Kuo, Wilton Lopez, and Edward Mujica. I didn’t throw away anybody important.
Next, I dropped just about everybody who is a current premium reliever – basically everybody unlikely to ever start again. Wade Davis and Brandon Morrow stick on the list due to their unique history. Say goodbye to Tommy Hunter, Brett Cecil, David Phelps, Andrew Miller, Daniel Hudson, Zach Britton, Glen Perkins, Brad Hand, Tony Cingrani, Raisel Iglesias, Brandon Maurer, Alex Colome… well you get the point.
I’m down to 27 names, and we have more cuts to make. Players like Phil Coke, Joba Chamberlain, Daniel Bard, and Mitchell Boggs. We’re now down to 14 names. I’ve sorted them into three buckets.
It’s fun to remember these guys in the sense that they used to exist around the periphery of fantasy baseball consciousness. Simon had an incredibly unlikely peak from 2012 through 2014 during which he was twice a good reliever and once a good starter. FIP hated him.
Villanueva was a kind of forebear to the modern multi-inning relief ace. He’d make five or ten starts while also mixing in some medium and high leverage relief. Morales was a bad starter, then a mostly bad reliever, then a bad starter again. McClellan was a decent reliever, made 17 lousy starts in 2011, then rapidly disappeared.
Davis is obviously the biggest name on this list. He was a starter for the Rays until they discovered he was MUCH better in the bullpen. Then the Wil Myers trade briefly restored him to the rotation. It didn’t take. Now he’s a rich reliever. Nicasio has a similar story with a LOT less success.
Marshall and Aceves bounced back and forth between starting and relieving early in their careers. Marshall eventually settled in as a fantastic but injury prone fireman. Aceves was always inconsistent. Norris and Petit are swingmen who mostly work out of the bullpen.
Really, this was always a one-man list. Sale is the success story for closer-turned-starter pitchers. His first 79 appearances came as a reliever – a role in which he thrived. Notably, he recorded saves in only 15 percent of his relief appearances. The White Sox wisely prevented him from becoming entrenched in the role. He permanently transitioned to the rotation in 2012. Someday in the semi-distant future, we may see Sale the Reliever return.
If Sale is the best case scenario, Wilson is at least a pretty good alternative. He was a lot better than you remember. At least, he was a lot better than I remember.
He kicked off his major league career with 234 mostly effective relief appearances. Again, notice he notched saves in only 16 percent of those appearances. The year he was the primary closer was also the year he posted a 6.02 ERA. Wilson concluded his career with 186 consecutive starts. He never returned to the bullpen.
Myers was probably worse than you remember. He discovered a joy for closing in 2007 while recovering from injury. Thereafter, he was an indifferent starter for the remainder of a surprisingly long career. He bounced back to the bullpen a couple times, including 70 appearances in 2012 – his final season as a major leaguer.
We probably know the end of Morrow’s story even though it’s ongoing. He kind of fits in the Wade Davis category, except injuries were the main reason he couldn’t hack it as a starter. The stuff was good enough, and he toiled at making it work for the better part of a decade. Now he’s back in the closer role for the first time since losing the Mariners’ job in 2009.
Before you go wishing for Bradley or your favorite prospect (Alex Reyes?) to spend some time as a closer, consider recent history. Pitchers like Aroldis Chapman and Jonathan Papelbon probably could have been starters with an extra season or two of development. The same goes for current closers like Roberto Osuna and Edwin Diaz. The bullpen is a sticky place. Even the pitchers who did bounce from the ninth inning to the rotation mostly failed. If the Diamondbacks puts Bradley in the closer role, he’s unlikely to ever start again.
We hoped you liked reading Closers Never Leave The Bullpen by Brad Johnson!
If you lower it from 5 saves to 3, you do get a player like Wainwright added in.
But that’s not a closer so it doesn’t really matter.
Mike Minor could be in there too since he’s getting another chance to start, but he wasn’t really a closer last year either.
This was also outside of your timeframe.
I still don’t really count two games in September and the playoffs. Could also include David Price if I did though.

the second one quantity of Julie Coleman's pleasing and revealing background of the recording and makes use of of slang and felony cant takes the tale from 1785 to 1858, and explores their manifestations within the u . s . and Australia.
During this era glossaries of cant have been thrown into the colour via dictionaries of slang, which now lined a vast spectrum of non-standard English, together with the language of thieves. Julie Coleman exhibits how Francis Grose's Dictionary of the Vulgar Tongue revolutionized the lexicography of the underworld. She explores the compilation and content material of the earliest Australian and American slang glossaries, whose authors integrated the thrice-transported James Hardy Vaux and the mythical George Matsell, big apple City's first leader of police, whose The mystery Language of Crime: The Rogue's Lexicon proficient the script of Martin Scorcese's movie Gangs of recent York.
Cant represented a tangible probability to existence and estate, yet slang threatened to undermine reliable behaviour and social morality. Julie Coleman exhibits how and why they have been instantly repellent and seductive. Her attention-grabbing account casts clean mild on language and lifestyles in the various darker areas of significant Britain and the English-speaking world.
Virtually from the instant in 1940 that Otto Frisch and Rudofl Peierls instructed, from their small place of work within the collage of Birmingham, that an atomic weapon might be miniaturized and brought to its goal via plane, the idea that of atomic espionage might be stated to have existed. No faster had the recognized Frisch-Peierls Memorandum been acquired by way of the British struggle cupboard than a Soviet mole, John Cairncross, handed the main points directly to his Soviet touch.

With the dry, sub-cooled flake ice produced by North Star’s innovative machinery, which first hit the market in the early 1950s, seafood processors could keep their perishable proteins over, under, and completely encompassed in ice, without risk of bruising the meat. The benefits weren’t confined to just product health, either – flake ice also offered laborers a safer alternative to traditional methods of chipping block ice, North Star’s president Logan Shepardson explained.
“Technology at the time was mostly based around chipping ice blocks, and it was dangerous and dirty and machines always broke down,” Shepardson told SeafoodSource.
In 1951, North Star Ice Equipment Corporation sold its initial 13 flake ice machines among Seattle’s robust fishing industry. Within five years, sales had tripled. Flake ice, which is the only kind of ice that is harvested dry, conserves energy and can be stored long-term in a frozen room without hardening into a giant block. It has established a new standard following its introduction into the market, Shepardson said.
“Flake ice for the fishing industry is almost always superior,” he said.
While North Star’s business reach has grown to include 150 countries today, the U.S. Pacific Northwest remains an important, flagship market for the processing solutions developer, Shepardson added.
“The heart and soul of our business is the Northwest fisheries, from Oregon to Alaska. That is our bread and butter, and our market share up there is huge,” he said.
North Star’s product portfolio has expanded to include several flake ice makers, liquid ice makers, ice storage systems, ice delivery systems, and more. The company recently launched a new product line for the first time in years at the 2018 Seafood Processing North America event, held in Boston, Massachusetts last month. This latest range, the Cascade Series by North Star, possesses production capacities ranging from 1,100 lbs. to 11 U.S. tons of flake ice per day, and focuses on a new customer demographic for the company – small processors.
“We’re really targeting those smaller customers, fish markets, places like that that don’t need five, ten, or twenty tons in a day,” Shepardson said of the new range.
Shepardson, whose family has owned and operated the North Star for 40 years, notes that all of the company’s products, including the new Cascade Series by North Star, have been inspired and optimized with two key driving factors at the forefront.
The traits built into North Star’s processing equipment solutions, in many ways, reflect the values of the company’s client base, who tend to keep their machines for close to 50 to 60 years, according to Shepardson.
“The fishermen are really passionate about taking care of their equipment, making things last – they’re maintenance-heavy people. And they are really connected to these machines,” he said.
Consequently, offering timely machine maintenance has become an additional, imperative business component for North Star.

GenBank ® is the NIH genetic sequence database, an annotated collection of all publicly available DNA sequences (Nucleic Acids Research, 2013 Jan;41(D1):D36-42). GenBank is part of the International Nucleotide Sequence Database Collaboration, which comprises the DNA DataBank of Japan (DDBJ), the European Nucleotide Archive (ENA), and GenBank at NCBI. These three organizations exchange data on a daily basis.
A GenBank release occurs every two months and is available from the ftp site. The release notes for the current version of GenBank provide detailed information about the release and notifications of upcoming changes to GenBank. Release notes for previous GenBank releases are also available. GenBank growth statistics for both the traditional GenBank divisions and the WGS division are available from each release. GenBank growth statistics for both the traditional GenBank divisions and the WGS division are available from each release.
An annotated sample GenBank record for a Saccharomyces cerevisiae gene demonstrates many of the features of the GenBank flat file format.
There are several ways to search and retrieve data from GenBank.
Search GenBank for sequence identifiers and annotations with Entrez Nucleotide.
Search and align GenBank sequences to a query sequence using BLAST (Basic Local Alignment Search Tool). BLAST searches CoreNucleotide, dbEST, and dbGSS independently; see BLAST info for more information about the numerous BLAST databases.
Search, link, and download sequences programatically using NCBI e-utilities.

Toolbox is updating from version 0.9.7 to version 1.0.
A lot of work has been put into making Toolbox more awesome, by adding more debugging functions and filters into Twig and adding support for other custom field solutions like Meta Box.
However, making such a big step requires a fundamental change. In order for Toolbox to work consistently for developers we've had to split up the toolbox/helpers filters for each supported field type solution.
This means that the update to version 1.0 that will be available in a few days you will need to review your functions.php if you've added custom filters.
If you don't know what I'm talking about, that's probably good news, you won't notice any change. However, if you or a developer working with the Toolbox plugin and have de-queued or enqueued filters to the settings, attributes or helpers for Toolbox it might change the way the plugin interacts with the user and output.
Did you notice the subtle change?
If you're using Meta Box field types you will - evidently - need to use tooboxConnectors_meta_box::settings_text and toolbox_meta_box::return_shortcode_attr_default.
Please note that this ONLY affects callbacks that are part of Toolbox. If you've added your own callbacks to extend Toolbox's functionality you don't need to make adjustments, and you don't need to change those. You only need to make sure to de-queue and enqueue the Toolbox callbacks that have moved to another class.

In this tutorial, I’m going to teach you how to make Extruding Shape Layers in Adobe After Effects CS6.
First thing you need to do is start out a new project, give it a name and save it.
Now, to create a shape layer, you don´t need to select anything, just go to the screen and create a shape like in the example below. You can give it colors and modify it the way you want.
Make it a 3D layer by clicking on the “Classic 3D” tab on the upper right side of the screen.
You need to wait for it to load and then you will be able to see your shape like this.
On the bottom left, you will see an option that says “Shape layer” inside which you will find other options such as: Contents, transform, geometry options and material options .
You can regulate the lighting and other features from here as well.
After Effects is a very useful program for those interested in design, it´s really simple to use and it can make a difference when creating a project. I highly recommend you to explore it.

For the second year in a row, Hungarian design firm Hello Wood created a gorgeous Christmas tree that not only looks great day and night, but is also designed to give back to the Budapest community at the end of its lifespan. True to Hello Wood's style, the conical Charity Tree is primarily made from timber. The structure was then filled in with 33,000 pounds of stacked sawn logs. The 5,000 pieces of firewood will be distributed to families in need once the tree is taken down on the Twelfth Night after Christmas.
Built over the course of five days, the Charity Tree was created by Hello Wood in collaboration with Design Terminal and the Hungarian Interchurch Aid. White paint was applied to the circular faces of select logs as a nod to the Christmas ornaments that punctuate a fir tree. To give the tree a more dynamic look, the firewood placed on the tree’s upper quarter are angled upwards and elongated, with the final piece serving as the vertical base for a metal star.
The 36-foot-tall hollow tree also features a doorway, which leads visitors into a “chapel-like sacred inner space.” Log benches provide seating inside. At night, the Charity Tree is dramatically lit from the ground up with lighting effects by Philips Hungary.

How can I buy a house after divorce when I’m still on current mortgage?
How can I purchase a new home when my name is still on the mortgage to the marital home after my divorce?
One of the main concerns when one party is retaining the marital home is that the departing spouse will not be able to qualify for future mortgage financing while their name remains on the current mortgage. While many mortgage companies have their own guidelines or ‘overlays’ to investor underwriting guidelines, a divorce mortgage professional will know how to handle Court-Ordered Assignment of Debt.
When a borrower has outstanding debt that was assigned to another party by court order (such as under a divorce decree or separation agreement) and the creditor does not release the borrower from liability, the borrower has a contingent liability. The lender is not required to count this contingent liability as part of the borrower’s recurring monthly debt obligations.
The key; however, is to work with a knowledgeable and trained divorce lending professional. A Certified Divorce Lending Professional (CDLP) understands the different requirements of working with contingent liabilities. There can be hidden issues with title requirements as well as payments made by the spouse is now liable – hidden issues that can result in denied mortgage financing.
If you have any questions regarding a client’s contingent liabilities and how it will be considered in qualifying for a future mortgage, please contact a Certified Divorce Lending Professional in your area today!

Hodusoft, a division of Ecosmob, a global VoIP technologies leader, proudly announced that UNICEF have opted to put in place Hodusoft’s HoduCC contact center software for use in Afghanistan, primarily for their polio campaign for children in that country.
UNICEF operates in 190 countries to protect rights of children and to improve their lives. Communication with field operatives and with people as a whole is tough in Afghanistan that has a mountainous terrain and weak infrastructure. UNICEF were looking for the right contact center solution that would help meet the challenges and enable smooth communication, even by people who use simple feature phones. UNICEF did examine various possibilities from different vendors but ultimately decided to settle on Hodusoft’s HoduCC solution as the best option in terms of cost, features, performance and support.
That UNICEF, primarily a global humanitarian organization has chosen a contact center solution paves the way for other similar organizations to use such solutions in an innovative way. For instance, Hodusoft CC has full mobile integration, a necessary feature in countries like Afghanist and where landlines or other means of communication are challenging.
Before UNICEF tilted in favor of Hodusoft, quite a lot of extended negotiation was involved. “We believe that our high responsiveness at all stages, our willingness to go out of the way to explain features of our package and demonstrate use scenarios as well as novel implementations, impressed officials of UNICEF,” said the VP of the company. The company promised full support ranging from implementation to training of key personnel in offices as well as configuration and support backed by maintenance. “We have agreed to depute a team to Afghanistan to stay there and do all that is necessary to make Hodusoft CC central to UNICEF’s Afghanistan communication operations. We believe our software will help UNICEF better serve the children of Afghanistan even in the remotest areas and deliver urgent care when necessary,” he added.
Polio can be crippling and HodusoftCC will help UNICEF reach out to newborns and postnatal children by keeping track of them and by helping field operatives stay in touch with headquarters as well as location based hospitals and health care centres. Hodusoft is proud of being associated with UNICEF in a humanitarian venture.

David L. Sifry, founder and CEO of Technorati, keeps tabs on more than 45 million weblogs. Here's his advice for cracking his site's Top 100 list.
1) React quickly. Commentators like Andrew Sullivan and Michelle Malkin draw megatraffic with immediate rebuttals to A-list pundits at The New York Times and Fox News.
2) Make your posts easy to read. Italian comic Beppe Grillo broke into the Top 10 by setting his key points in boldface.
3) Link, link, link! It's counter-intuitive, but the busiest blogs in Technorati's index are those like InstaPundit.com that link prolifically to other sites. Linking works because most bloggers reciprocate by sending their readers your way.
4) Optimize for search engines. Put the name of your blog (even if it's just your own name) in the main URL and the title tag of your site. On Technorati, identify your blog with search topics, like "politics" or "sewing."
5) Post, post, post! Chinese actress and director Xu Jinglei has the most popular blog on the planet. At first we thought it was a glitch in our system, but it turns out she's a real-world celebrity who makes time to post almost every day. What's your excuse?
Matthew Price started MySpace Hacks to "make Myspace do things that it's not supposed to do." These are a few of his fave tools and tips.
There are thousands of free tools online for tweaking colors, adjusting layouts, and embedding videos. For God's sake, use 'em - the default design on MySpace blows. Just avoid garish scrolling graphics that crash browsers and burn eyeballs.
Text for Free lets people send messages to your cell from your MySpace profile. Enter your number and service provider, and the site spits out a line of code that you can paste into your profile. No more having to disconnect from MySpace. Ever.
MySpace profiles can't display more than 10 photos. Luckily, there's a free download that generates a dynamic PNG file that features your six most recent Flickr uploads. When your visitors click a photo, they're taken directly to your Flickr library.
Wanna know where all those babes scoping your profile are from? Use Geo Visitors, a Web tool that detects visitors' whereabouts and uses their locations to build a Google map.
MySpace's standard settings display eight favorite friends on your profile home-page. The MySpace Custom Friend Space Generator lets you rework the field to show off up to 40 of your BFFs.
Rate items you like. Sure, it feels good to trash a book you hated, but telling Amazon what you enjoyed will generate better recommendations - and the more, the better. On hold with the cable company? Rate a few items. On a conference call? Rate a few more.
Remove bum purchases like the Princess Diaries DVD you bought for your niece last Christmas. Under your personal store tab, select Improve Your Recommendations. Uncheck the Use to Make Recommendations box for items that don't reflect your tastes.
Squash bad leads. Amazon doesn't know it's on the wrong track unless you speak up. Click Not Interested and it'll stop insisting you'll love the latest Dave Matthews CD.
Add any item you want to your Wish List and Shopping List, even if you aren't ready to buy it - at least Amazon will know your preferences.
Dig deep into the recommendations and you might find better ideas. When browsing DVDs, for example, filter down to sub-categories like Animation or Cult Movies for more pics in your favorite genre.
Imitation is the sincerest form of blogging. A free app from Eyebeam called reBlog lets you easily republish other people's posts. Here's how it works.
1) Download the software from www.reBlog.org. When you upload the appropriate files into your Web hosting account, it will automatically create a reBlog homepage.
2) Go to your spanking-new reblog page (the url might be something like www.yoururl.com/reblog) and paste links for RSS feeds that you want to monitor.
3) Click "Item List" to scan new posts. If you see an item you want to republish, select it, add witty commentary (or not), and click "Published Feed." Voilà! You're a one-person Boing Boing.

I truly believe that all humans have an innate desire to feel happy. I also believe that the overwhelming majority of people want to be kind and add to others lives as well.
Yet, I find that often times we make it difficult to easily achieve happiness and make a difference in someone else's life.
We often attribute our happiness, or lack there of to other people or circumstances.
ex. "My boss or job has me working so much I don't have time to exercise"
What's even more interesting is that we create an attachment to those things even if they aren't helping our happiness.
We sometimes allow feeling to define us. The worst part is that even if those feeling are bad...Regret, disappointment, or anger for example...We may still allow ourselves to feel safe or even comfortable with attachment to these feelings.
Within trying to hold on to what's familiar and comfortable to us, we limit our ability to move forward toward something better. The present becomes difficult to enjoy because of constant fearful thoughts.
I coach many very ambitious, wealthy, and successful people. Often times individuals with these characteristics try to grip, own, and control the world around them. That being said, even those who aren't wealthy or ambitious try to control everything around them. Sometimes to the point that inhibits their ability to become successful. That's why letting go to attachment is so important.
You must seek freedom, because within that is true happiness.
1.Call yourself out!! When you catch yourself in a moment where you are being over whelmed by something that is irrelevant or out of your control, stop and refocus. If you find yourself blaming someone or something for your current situation, stop and think about positive changes you can make.
2.Be in the moment. Enjoy the present and understand the future isn't guaranteed.
3.Be thankful for what you have. Don't focus on what you want. Be a giver and realize that it could be worse.
4.Be flexible. Life is ever changing. You should be constantly working on yourself and redefining yourself and your goals in life. The world we live in is so dynamic that being stubborn and resistant to change will land you extinct.
5. Accept yourself. Love yourself...All your flaws all your strengths, everything. Nobody and Nothing is perfect. I'm convinced you cannot find clarity and focus in anything (love, work, emotions, etc) without loving yourself first.

What most people who use newsletters for internet marketing should know that the difference between a successful campaign with a failure is to track your newsletters. There are many services which offers the ability to track your newsletters, and one of the most important data is the click through rate, which is the amount of times your subscribers actually open up to read your e-mails. This is important as it gives you an idea on how effective your newsletters are in your internet marketing campaign.
Here are some few simple tips to adapt to in order to attract more clicks to your newsletters. Most important of all, you need to create a good and strong subject title. This alone determines if your subscribers want to click to open and read your e-mail or not. The first thing to do is to put yourself into your subscriber’s shoes, and to think of titles you would open up to click. If you yourself think that the title of your newsletters are bland, you should work on it to come up with better titles.
Next, think of a title which would create curiosity among your subscribers. This could be achieved by asking questions, or having cryptic messages as your subject title. Have a mysterious title, or sometimes even an angry one. People would want to know what made you so angry. There are numerous ways to bring out curiosity among your subscribers and the best way is to experiment.
Remember to track your newsletters. You never know if your newsletters are effective and if it is helping you, or are you just wasting on expenses on your newsletters services. With the data you collect, you would be able to tell the difference, and you are also able to experiment with the type of subject titles which would attract attention to your newsletters.

Matagalpa is 12% cheaper than Zarqa. Nov 2018 Cost of Living.
WARNING! This comparison is based on only a few data points. At this point it is only a guess. It is based on 38 prices entered by less than 5 different people.
For example, to keep the same standard of living that would require Dinar 1,100 in Zarqa you would need to make just about Dinar 967 (45,099 C$) in Matagalpa.

How we do we get more accurate figures (Temperature) etc. logged/predicted for our specific location/s ? Our weather here is extreme-tropics, but the map shows up to 10c off the mark at times.
Example ; today, our temps reached 32c, but Windy shows it as 26c maximum.
Unfortunately, this is a common problem for weather models.
ECMWF model has a grid of 9 km, that means is "forecasting" the same temperature (also wind etc) for any place within a 9x9 km square. If there is a "hot" valley and a "cold" mountain into this square, the model will give the average temperature.
as seen in the meteogram (is for location Gusap Airstripe).
OK..bottom (NEMS) model looks more realistic...although those temps are not being reflected in the Meteogram I have on my screen, for Gusap Airstrip. It shows a max of 26c for the day...about 10c out of whack. No biggie really.

NVRs began as PC-based solutions, harnessing the powers of a CPU. However, in recent years, these are no longer the mainstream products on the market. A couple of years ago, standalone NVRs were introduced into the market, catering to the increasing popularity of network cameras. Since then, their popularity has risen in the industry and standalone NVRs are claiming their spot as the mainstream video storage product. Another NVR develop in recent years is in response to community- and city-wide surveillance projects. The NVRs that cater to this market segment are large with powerful data processing capabilities.
While both PC-based and standalone NVRs record video, store video, and manage cameras, recorded content, viewing and archiving, the differences between the two lie in how they operate and the features they provide.
Standalone NVRs are smaller and more compact in size compared to PC-based NVRs. In terms of performance, standalone NVRs operate on SoC and usually have one or more DSPs for video compression, decompression, and a CPU for other functions. On the other hand, PC-based NVRs utilize the CPU for video compression/decompression, viewing and recording content, and managing cameras.
Currently, standalone NVRs are better suited for systems where the number of cameras is within the limits of an NVR's capacity. PC-based NVRs are decidedly more powerful in processing data, and offer much more flexibility in storage scalability, compared to standalone NVRs. PC-based systems also offer more camera scalability, whereas standalone NVRs tend to have an upper limit of camera capacity.
Standalone NVRs triumph over PC-based NVRs in the following areas: price, reliability, and stability. With fewer components and packaged in a compact case, they are appealing in price and more reliable in performance. They are also more stable, secure, and less prone to viruses and hacks, as they run on Linux, as opposed to a Windows-based system. Finally, as they run on a standalone operating system, they have a shorter boot time, compared to the longer loading time required by PC-based NVRs.
With their many benefits, standalone NVRs are gaining traction in the market. In response, several manufacturers are hearing this call and offering attractive products. For example, Shany Electronic is launching standalone NVRs in 4-, 20-, and 36 channels to meet the market demands of SMB enterprises. In this way, smaller projects benefit from the features and capabilities of standalone NVRs and SMB enterprises are able to save substantially on costs. More importantly, “these NVRs are not only powerful, but also boast ease-of-use features, such as auto search and built-in network power to remove the need of a PoE switch. The perk of this function is that it further reduces costs for customers as they do not have to purchase PoE switches, which could be costly. PC-based NVRs, for example, require substantial investments such as licenses for Windows, video analytics software, and monitors,” said Steve Tang, GM at Shany Electronic.
According to Joe Qiu, Overseas Business Director at TVT Digital Technology, the choice between PC-based NVRs and standalone NVRs depends on end users. More customers are familiar with PC-based NVRs now due to historical reasons, while more and more will adopt standalone NVRs because of their better prices and higher reliability. Currently, standalone NVRs are optimized at operations of up to 64 channels, although some manufacturers such as Hikvision, Dahua, and TVT are offering ones with over 100 channels. In the future, more and more applications would be covered by standalone NVRs.
However, the number of channels is not the only deciding factor. Aaron Yeh,Director of Surveon Technology, noted that some installations require more complex functions, such as integration with POS and delivery systems. In this scenario, even a franchised convenience store may require a PC-based NVR which is further integrated with its headquarters.
Generally, PC-based NVRs are deployed in large-scale projects, such as enterprises, and government and mission-critical applications. They may also be deployed in high-end homes or smaller-scale enterprises with more complex security requirements.
On the other hand, standalone NVRs are best suited for homes and small businesses with systems of up to 16 channels. QNAP Security, for example, recently completed a project in India where a gas company deployed standalone NVRs at its multiple sites. According to Evelyn Kao, Product Manager at Surveillance Business Division of QNAP Security, standalone NVRs met end-user requirements in terms of budget, reliability, local display feature, and functionality.
Undoubtedly, standalone NVRs and PC-based NVRs will have overlapping markets, but the question is how large and where is this overlap. In response to this, several industry experts have referenced the history of DVRs.
“Just like DVRs, when NVRs first came out, they are only available in the PC-based form. End users with less complex requirements had no other option, but now with the standalone NVRs available, it is natural that they will adopt it at a rapid pace,” he added.
Hence, some feel that standalone NVRs will take over some market share of PC-based NVRs, but this will be mostly concentrated in the mid-market segments. The mid- to high-scale installations will remain reserved for PC-based NVRs as end users require more channels and more complex integration, scalability, and storage.
At the same time, “PC-based NVRs may have an advantage because VMS technology is mature. However, with the adoption of advanced solutions and more efforts invested in standalone NVR technology, the scalability and flexibility of standalone NVRs would be enhanced dramatically. In other words, the rapid development of standalone NVRs would greatly decrease the traditional merits of PC-based NVRs,” commented Ice Wu, Product Director of Dahua Technology on the development of standalone NVRs.
The rising popularity of standalone NVRs has resulted in numerous manufacturers sprouting up in Shenzhen, China. Although standalone NVRs from these manufacturers come with a considerably lower price tag, Wu does not feel the need to be threatened by them. “I feel that they will have their place in the market, albeit mostly at the lower end. Dahua has paid attention to this trend and we have been strengthening and completing our product offerings to meet market demands," she highlighted.
According to Chris Hsu, Marketing Manager at Merit LILIN, conservative market figures for PC-based versus standalone NVRs are approximately 92 percent versus 8 percent this year. The ratios would likely change in favor of standalone NVRs to 85:15 next year, and 70:30 the year after.
The uptake of standalone NVRs is different amongst the various regions worldwide. “China is a mature market and the world's manufacturing hub of standalone NVRs. Hence, from our perspective, roughly 80 percent of the market is standalone NVRs,” said Eric Shen, Product Manager of DVR/NVR at Hikvision Digital Technology.
The figures are slightly different in other regions of the world. “In emerging countries, the ratio of standalone NVRs to PC-based NVRs is roughly 50:50. The ratio is less for Europe and North America, because these regions are headquarters to many of the PC-based systems and have traditionally been more used to PC-based systems as a result,” explained Shen on the regional difference in the adoption of standalone NVRs.
Education remains key to the widespread adoption of standalone NVRs in these regions. “We work hard to show end users and system integrations the benefits of standalone NVRs and we find that this has been successful in penetrating the developed markets. At the same time, however, the first segments to adopt standalone NVRs would be the small and medium enterprises as they stand to benefit most,” explained Shen.
As standalone NVRs improve in capabilities and features, they stand to rival PC-based NVRs even further. The day when the global market share of standalone NVRs versus PC-based NVRs is 50:50 should not be far off.
