As promised, here is the second GeoDB post. I hope you enjoy reading this as much as we enjoy developing and unveiling this exciting and revolutionary project. You can read the original post on Medium here.
The tricolon “location, location, location” is a cliché widely used by property experts, having been used in print as early as 1926 . It was popularized thanks to Harold Samuel , who acquired a small property concern called Land Securities Investment Trust at the end of the Second World War and thanks to his ability to identify great business opportunities in the real estate sector, he was able to grow it into one of the largest companies on the London stock exchange [2, 3].
You may not know it, but several companies are using your private data right now. And there is something they’re particularly interested about, your location. To know their environment, study their competitors, discover opportunities and trends, optimice their supply chain and for many other things, companies are analysing large volumes of data on a daily basis, and in many cases, location is absolutely crucial to contextualise the data and carry out useful analysis.
Probably the above does not surprise you, or maybe it does, but you’re likely to be unaware of the fact that several studies have proven that location is the private data that most concerns us [4, 5, 6]. And how much are companies paying you for using your most delicate private information? We don’t want to disappoint you, we know that there are several types of rewards, but we just want to ask you this question so you can think about it and about its implications.
This is the first monographic blog post of the series Discovering GeoDB. In it, we’ll review several papers that have revealed the psychological value that we associate to our private location data. Later, we’ll review other studies that have shown the great value that this information has for some companies. It’s likely that after reading this blog, your answer to the previous question changes significantly.
But, what do you know about this?
Before talking about private location, we want to write some lines about our background so that you don’t end up thinking that we don’t have a dog in this fight.
Our team is made up of members who have been working in this sector for years, with experience in platforms that are being used worldwide. We put user’s privacy first and this has allowed us to obtain very valuable information regarding users’ concerns about their privacy.
We’ve heard multiple voices in multiple languages, we’ve reflected, we’ve investigated and we’ve detected the need to develop a new paradigm to transform the current situation.
Our experience has made us identify a solution that meets a need, and this process has made us jump into this exciting project.
Surely you’ve seen some commercials of Mastercard’s Priceless campaign. It’s what happens when an advertising campaign lasts for more than two decades. And would you say that your privacy is priceless? So, why do you sell it so cheaply?
You may think you’re not selling your privacy, but we encourage you to think about it. Do you have any loyalty card? Do you use any social network? Do you use a smartphone? Do you use any internet browser? Do you use the Internet? We regret to say that whether you like it or not, while you read this line you are selling a bit of your privacy, a bit of your life.
If someone is questioned about how much money they want for their private data, they’ll probably respond with a high sum of money or they could even be offended by our offer. Is it enough to camouflage it under a loyalty program that rewards their private data with merchandising brand products to end up with a happy private data provider, with a happy customer? We did not invent it, it’s a fact [5, 8].
Companies know about this bias in our behavior and exploit it in their favor. They need our private data and they know that we’re reluctant to give it to them, so they adapt their speech so you think they give you something for free that’s very valuable. You know what they normally say, if you’re not paying for it, you’re probably the product.
Having said the above, have you ever thought about how companies use your private data? Usually they do not plot something murky, rather the opposite. It’s difficult to make a precise classification, but we could say that our data is useful for things like i) offer better services, ii) optimize supply chains, iii) increase the clientele or iv) discover new opportunities.
Offer the best mobile telephone coverage.
Minimize costs to give low prices.
Build supermarkets and gas stations in busy areas with easy access.
Optimize navigation routes and estimate their duration.
Give the best roadside assistance coverage.
Offer fast and economic parcel services.
And many other things [9, 10].
Build hospitals and schools in the best locations.
Find the best sites for emergency services.
For your peace of mind, you should also know that nobody is interested in knowing your individualised data, in fact, the data of an isolated individual is not useful for this type of analysis. It’s the aggregation of data from multiple individuals that allows to respond to situations like the previous ones.
The crux of the issue is not how our private data is used, but how it’s collected. It’s inadmissible that companies can capture and exploit our private information without our consent. And it’s not ethical that, making use of psychological tricks, they can generate great economic benefits at the expense of paying the raw material with peanuts.
The collection and use of private data based on deception can not continue to be the norm, This approach generates suspicion and rejection from users and what is more important, opens privacy gaps .
Give them the power to decide how to use them.
Obtain a fair economic reward.
We must demand control over what we sell, under what conditions and at what price.
For how much money would you sell your private location data every five minutes during the next month for? It’s a delicate question, isn’t it?
In 2013, the Financial Times published an interactive calculator  that allows to determine a price for our personal data based on pricing benchmarks supplied by a data brokers .
Playing with the calculator we obtain values ranging from half a dollar to about two dollars. For simplicity, let’s say that the average cost according to that calculator is around $1.
Buyers are not interested in individual users’ data, but large datasets with the data of millions of users. Based on the ratio, 1 person = 1 dollar, it is easy to estimate the cost of the data of a million of users.
However, the previous cost is computed based on the price given by Financial Times but, would you sell your personal data for $1?
The problem is that companies ask and respond at the same time, asking the question and telling you the answer. Setting that price is a way to self-justify the use of indirect formulas to capture user data. “How can I convince a user to give me their private data in exchange for a dollar?”.
It’s in our own interest to answer the question for ourselves, and researchers have already tried to give an honest answer to it.
In 2010, Ancient and Frog Design carried out an study to quantify the value of personal data that individuals would give up in exchange for a IT service and the results are summarised below .
We want much more than a dollar in exchange for our personal data.
We value certain kinds of information more highly than others.
This difference in the appreciation of the value of the information has been corroborated in subsequent studies. Specifically, Staiano, J. et al. in their 2014 paper ‘Money Walks: A Human-Centric Study on the Economics of Personal Mobile Data’  found evidence that “location is the most valued category of personally identifiable information … and that bulk information is valued much higher than individual information”. It should not surprise us that, with the proliferation of smartphones, which continuously accompany us wherever we go, the location has become the most valued category of private information.
But is that the price of our private data? No, that is the price for which some users were willing to disclose their private data under certain conditions.
The value for which we’re willing to disclose some of our private location information was studied in 2005 by Danezis, G. et al.  and in 2006 by Cvrcek, D. et al .
In  was carried out a study in which, by using deception, the authors asked several people if they would be willing to provide their private location data in exchange for money. The study allowed them to measure different factors such as how many users were interested, what amount of money they demanded or how the expected use of the data influences the price.
This study showed some interesting results, but it was done in a relatively small scale at Cambridge University so, in  a new study was carried out using “a sample of over 1200 people from five EU countries, and used tools from experimental psychology and economics to extract from them the value they attach to their location data”. The size of the sample allowed them to “compare [the] value across national groups, gender and technical awareness, but also the perceived difference between academic use and commercial exploitation.”.
Women are possibly more sensitive to what the collected data may be used for.
The participants did not perceive their unusual movements as more sensitive than their every-day behaviour.
The participants where more sensitive to the purpose of the data collection, than the duration and quantity of data collected.
There are huge differences among countries in the sensitivity to the time extension.
Basic results confirm results of the Cambridge study in the overall value of bids — e.g. medians of bids are 20 GBP and 43 EUR (i.e. about 28 GBP at the August 2006 exchange rates) for non-commercial use of data, respectively.
Well, it seems that we expect to receive much more than $1 for our personal data. Wouldn’t you agree? And we should consider that these results are from 2006, since that year prices have gone up, the awareness of users regarding mobile technology has increased and location has become the most valued category of private information. We’re convinced that currently the price will be higher, but we do not want to suggest a price, you’ll decide yours.
It seems that we’ve raised a bit the amount of money that users should receive in compensation for providing their private location data, but is user’s private location so valuable?
The big data market was worth $125.000.000.000 in 2015 , which provides a sense of just how much financial capital enterprises are pouring in to data operations. But big data is not just about collecting and processing huge volumes of data. If the data you are storing and analysing is full of inconsistencies, inaccuracies or other issues, the analytic results you obtain will be misleading .
The last part of the previous paragraph is taken from an article published in 2017 by Forbes Insight in which they conducted several interviews with different executives who are using localisation in their big data analysis. In the article, the executives talk openly about how this information is, in many cases, a critical element to perform an analysis that does not provide misleading results.
We would like to highlight some of the parts of the interview with Nigel Lester, managing director for Pitney Bowes in the Australia-New Zealand region, since we believe that they masterfully defined the importance of localization for big data analysis.
We finish the previous section with the question “is user’s private location so valuable?”. We let you answer this question for yourselves.
In the next entry we’ll deepen on how it’s possible to find the balance between the economic interests of the users and the economic interests of the companies.

Whether a customer has 20 pairs or 200, almost everyone struggles with shoe storage. This customer wanted a design with enough space for shoes that also provided options for storing other items.

Dec. 11, 2012. WASHINGTON — Seven Appalachian State University students involved in developing two public art sites for a local rural community recently presented their work to the Appalachian Regional Commission (ARC) in Washington, D.C.
They participated in the annual conference of the ARC’s Appalachian Teaching Project. At the conference their faculty advisor, Tom Hansell, was also designated one of ARC’s 2012-13 Appalachian Teaching Fellows for his work with them on their local project.
The Appalachian Teaching Project offers students an opportunity to conduct active community-based research on their campuses, led by the Consortium of Appalachian Centers and Institutes. The consortium supports and encourages student research and interaction among 15 campuses in 11 Appalachian states and their constituent communities.
In 2009, Elk Knob Community Heritage Organization (EKCHO) partnered with the Watauga Arts Council to create a public art plan for the Elk Knob Community. The plan outlined a series of site-specific works. EKCHO and its allies wanted to use public artworks to promote sustainable development of the communities surrounding the Elk Knob State Park and stimulate people’s curiosity related to the culture, history and natural world on and around Elk Knob.
This fall, EKCHO partnered with the class of 12 Honors College students at Appalachian to start making the art plan a reality. They were assisted by Hansell, an assistant professor in the Appalachian studies program.
The project involved two pieces: an iron tree on the Meat Camp side of Elk Knob and a mural on the Pottertown side of the mountain. The students worked with community members to ensure that the art is deeply connected to the people and places surrounding the Elk Knob State Park. The class also developed signage and a publicity plan for the project.
Materials and labor were donated by Watauga Building Supply and Zachary David Smith-Johnson.
In addition, the students planned an “art raising” event on Nov. 10 for the community to share in the experience of installing these new public artworks. Local community members created a border of hand prints on the mural, and made stepping stones with local materials to surround the iron tree. After the event, the iron tree was installed at 1401 Meat Camp Rd., and the mural was installed on the Old Eller Store on South Road in Pottertown.
Created by the U.S. Congress, the Appalachian Regional Commission is a partnership between the federal government and the governors of the 13 Appalachian states designed to improve economic opportunities throughout the region. Each year ARC provides funding for several hundred projects in business development, education and job training, telecommunications, infrastructure, community development, housing and transportation.

Many issues affecting the alarm dealers in North Carolina prompted a group of business people across the state to meet on September 8, 1977 to discuss these concerns. It was decided that an association was an effective way of lobbying to change the laws, pool resources and time would be a great advantage to alarm dealers and manufacturers. Thus, the North Carolina Alarm Systems Association, Inc. was founded. In 1991, the association became the chartered state association of the National Burglar and Fire Alarm Association and the name was changed to the North Carolina Burglar and Fire Alarm Association, Inc. In 2009, the NBFAA changed its name to Electronic Security Association to broaden the scope of its members' practices. The NCBFAA followed suit in 2010 by changing its name to North Carolina Electronic Security Association.

Sometimes, if you want to understand the amazing things that happen in space, you have to make sense of them in a lab on Earth, first. Scientists are attempting to model some of the most powerful explosions in the universe by miniaturizing them into lab experiments.
An international team of researchers made beams from a special kind of plasma (a gas where the charged particles are separated and not confined to atoms), called an electron-positron plasma. These beams seem to be creating strong, long-lasting magnetic fields. Perhaps these fields could help the researchers understand similar behaviors in much more violent systems, like the gamma ray bursts in deep space.
The team used the intense Gemini laser at the Rutherford Appleton Laboratory in the UK, with a special setup for studying what’s called an “electron-positron plasma beam,” or EPB. They created this beam by passing an intense laser pulse through a chamber filled with helium, which creates a beam of electrons. These electrons hit a lead target, and out comes the EPB, a plasma that has equal amounts of electrons and positrons, their antimatter partners. If you’ll remember, every charged particle has an antimatter partner that’s (almost) exactly the same except with the opposite charge.
The team has done this before. But here, they were able to actually make measurements of that EPB’s behavior, including the long-lasting magnetic field caused by it traveling through a background plasma (one consisting of electrons and charged atoms, or ions, instead of positrons), according to the paper published recently in Physical Review Letters.
These phenomena can help explain how those gamma ray bursts form in astrophysical systems like black holes. Sarri explains that black holes create beams of these electron-positron pairs, which make their own magnetic fields, creating gamma ray bursts—similar to what they’ve done in the lab.

Those who really love their beauty know all about asap skincare, the Aussie-owned and operated brand delivering amazing cosmeceutical formulas that really work. If you’re a newbie to this beloved brand, though, we’re here to tell you all about it — and exactly why you need their Christmas packs in your life.
asap skincare was founded back in 2000 by an Aussie family who saw a gap in the market for results-driven products that didn’t just gloss over the problem or act as a temporary fix. Instead, asap skincare products have been designed to provide long-lasting effects that radically improve skin clarity, texture and tone.
This Christmas, asap have put together three stunning Christmas gift sets, each of which is tailored to a different skin concern (and lady in your life!). Keep reading to find out all about each pack, and to discover which ones will perfectly suit those on your festive gift-giving list.
The asap Brightening Serum Pack features three key products within their extensive range — the Super B Complex, Super C Serum and the DNA Renewal Treatment. Housed in fun, geometric packaging in hues of pink, orange and yellow, this baby would look gorgeous under your Christmas tree (plus, it’s so beautiful, you won’t even have to wrap it!).
Using each of these three products as part of your daily skincare routine will impart some great results, with key benefits that include brightening, firming and rejuvenating the complexion.
Start off with the Super B Complex of an evening, applying as your nightly serum. Super B has a huge range of benefits, but has notably been found to boost collagen production, refine skin texture, lock in hydration and minimise pores. Sounds like magic stuff, right?! Super B contains a high percentage of Niacinamide, a stellar skincare ingredient which works to prevent against ageing signs by turn over skin cells quickly, in turn encouraging collagen.
Next up is cult fave, the asap DNA Renewal Treatment. A revolutionary hydrator, this product smooths out skin and prevents against ageing better than practically any product on the market. Self-regenerative stem cell technology is the driver behind this innovative product, and ensures skin stays taut, elastic and free of fine lines and wrinkles. Apply after your serums of a night to lock in hydration and protect the complexion.
Of a morning, make use of the Super C Serum to provide the skin with antioxidant benefits. Vitamin C plays a key role in brightening the skin, and has also been found to be a superstar pigmentation buster. It’s also fantastic at protecting the skin against environmental damage, such as from the sun or harmful free radicals. Make sure you follow up your Super C Serum with a quality SPF to ensure skin is fully protected before you step out into the world for the day.
Ideal for: your sister, BFF or cousin in their 30s or 40s.
If fine lines, wrinkles and elasticity loss are amongst your concerns (or your gift recipient’s!) then the asap Anti-Ageing Serum Pack is the perfect choice. Featuring the Super B Complex, Super A+ Serum and the DNA Renewal Treatment, each product works together harmoniously to deliver a huge range of benefits.
Using these three products as part of your regular skincare routine will help to smooth out the skin, erasing those pesky fine lines and softening wrinkles. Collagen-boosting ingredients ensure that your skin stays taut and elastic, and expert chemical exfoliants assist with skin cell turnover, which also fortifies anti-ageing.
We’ve already told you all about the customer-favourite Super B Complex, and the award-winning DNA Renewal Treatment, but what’s the asap Super A+ Serum all about? This product is a must-have within the asap skincare range, and is ideal for anyone who lists ageing amongst their skin concerns.
The two key ingredients within this formula are retinol and Hyaluronic Acid. The former is an anti-ageing hero, and the only ingredient that has actually been found to reverse the signs of physical skin ageing. When paired with Hyaluronic Acid, a key hydrator which binds moisture molecules to the skin, this serum encourages healthy collagen production to ensure skin stays looking youthful.
Use your Super A+ alternately with your Super B — one in the morning and one at night. Follow up with the DNA Renewal Treatment of an evening. As Super A+ is incredibly potent, it’s not recommended for those on topical acne medications or women who are pregnant.
Ideal for: your mum, nan or auntie in their 40s, 50s or 60s.
Are you constantly on the hunt for a miracle product that’ll give your skin a gorgeous glow? The asap Luminosity Serum Pack may just be your answer, as it’s been designed specifically to target dullness and dark spots, evening them out for a gorgeous, radiant complexion. This pack features the Super B Complex, DNA Renewal Treatment and the asap Radiance Serum.
Now that you know all about the Super B and the DNA Renewal Treatment, it’s time to fill you in on the benefits of the asap Radiance Serum. This glow-boosting favourite has a multitude of benefits, especially when used in conjunction with these other formulas in your daily skincare routine.
A blend of ingredients, including key botanicals, peptides, AHAs and BHAs works to rejuvenate the skin for optimal results. Results include smoothing out fine lines, protecting the complexion against environmental and free radical damage, evening out pigmentation and brightening the skin overall. It’s also killer at targeting acne and breakouts, lifting impurities from the pores for a clearer complexion. Doesn’t this sound like the serum of all serums!? We think so too!
Use the Radiance Serum alongside your Super B, alternating day and night for best results. Follow up with your DNA Renewal Serum of a night to keep skin taut and smooth.

BigHospitality examines the key trends, and what this means for the market in 2015 and beyond.
Six out of the top ten most popular restaurants in the UK on Bookatable were in the Midlands or further North, echoing comments from the chief executive of the Northern Restaurant & Bar trade show that ‘the world has finally woken up to the strength and potential’ of Northern England’s dining scene.
Figures from CGA Peach’s Outlet Index show that the eating-out markets in Manchester and Leeds experienced higher growth than London between 2005 and 2014, rising 57 per cent and 55 per cent respectively, compared to London’s more modest 31 per growth.
However, trading in the capital remains strong, with the OXO Tower Brasserie taking 45,000 bookings in 2014 alone, while Afternoon Tea at the Ritz topped 33,000.
London’s Rainforest café was the fourth most booked restaurant last year, indicating continued demand for family friendly dining experiences.
Similarly, Alton Towers, which features secret garden and pirate themed restaurants, rose from seventh to third position with over 33,000 bookings in 2014.
The continued growth of the casual dining sector has been attributed to its ability to combine ‘newness and diversity’ with a ‘family orientated treat’, key consumer trends identified by NPD Group research.
Italian cuisine was the most booked restaurant type last year, boosted by the popularity of Jamie Oliver’s restaurants, which passed the £100m turnover milestone in 2014.
Bookings at Jamie’s Italian sites in Newcastle and Birmingham accounted for 16 per cent of all bookings at the top ten restaurants in 2014.
Though diners continue to enjoy a wide range of cuisines, with French, European, American and Mexican remaining popular, British food was the second most booked restaurant type.
Rising popularity for UK cuisine has been attributed to the success of programmes such as The Great British Bake Off, as well as the evolving UK restaurant scene.
Mobile technology is becoming increasingly important to consumers as a means to research and book restaurants, reflected in a 19 per cent increase in mobile bookings at Bookatable between January 2014 and January 2015.
The company has urged restaurateurs to tap in to this shifting consumer behavior by optimising menus and table bookings for mobile devices.
A 2014 YouGov poll found that while 31 per cent of diners said it was important to view a restaurant website before visiting it, 68 per cent found restaurant websites ‘frustrating’.
The most common annoyances were failure to display a menu at all (31 per cent), and menus being hard to access (17 per cent), including those that were downloadable PDF’s.
Vegetarian and vegan dining are reportedly on the rise, with a 19 per cent rise in bookings to restaurants with a strong vegetarian offering or meat free menu between April and December 2014.
Data from 1.7m dishes ordered through TellTheChef showed that orders of gluten free dishes were up 12.8 per cent last year, while lactose free orders rose seven per cent.
In 2014 there was a 53 per cent increase in orders to restaurants where dietary requirements were identified.
Despite protests from a number of top chefs the new EU food allergy regulations may force more restaurants to begin catering for a previously untapped market. According to Coeliac UK, the hospitality industry is missing out on an estimated £100m per year just from the coeliac suffering community alone.
David Moore from Pied à Terre said: “Catering to both vegetarians and meat eaters at Michelin star level, we’ve been able to witness a real uplift in the amount of diners opting for veggie options over the last year.
London remains to be the UK’s veggie dining hotspot, with more restaurants offering meat free options than any other UK city.

In patients with less severe vein problems we will sometimes recommend a conservative approach to treatment. Compression stockings and leg elevation are examples of conservative approaches to the treatment of varicose veins and spider veins. Compression stockings are important because they have a higher compression than regular support hose. They are available by prescription only.
Leg elevation: Sounds simple but many times people think they are elevating their legs and they’re really not. Correct leg elevation involves elevating the feet above the heart.
Excessive sun exposure. Use sunscreen. (Always important, but especially important in limiting facial spider vein formation).
Crossing your legs when sitting.
Standing for long periods of time, (especially without wearing compression stockings).
Exercise. Exercise improves your circulation and exercise that targets your legs, like walking or running, is especially effective.
Do try to elevate your legs above your heart when resting.

This has been one of the questions I have often pondered you love money, or you enjoy your health? As we age, we have accumulated things and wealth and a retirement pension from our place of work; we saved our money in a retirement program this all took a strategy. We worked and saved towards our golden years and hope to have this fantastic retirement. Some do a better job with savings while others do what they can do with what they have. However, for many people, they seem to miss one thing, and that is health. What kind of life do you want each day? This is all about choice. So you have saved you have a pension yet you have invested ZERO dollars for your health. As a trainer for many years, I have heard all of the excuses so invest in your health.
I have no time, I love this one, so many of clients that need intervention to get healthy share this with me. Here are just a few more excuses I have heard.
10. I fill in your own story here of excuse.
It is simple just to decide that you want HEALTH! With health, money does come. Why? You are motivated, you have the energy you attract like people in your life your relationships improve. In the end, we should enjoy the journey of life with vigor, and money will not go with you in the end.

CALGARY, Alberta Remember last season when the Blackhawks struggled in third periods, too often squandering one-goal leads and coming up empty?
Yeah, so do the Blackhawks. They werent too fond of losing slim leads and point opportunities. So this season, and especially in recent games, the Blackhawks have been turning up the offense in the third period.
The Blackhawks are playing more from start to finish this season, especially the finish part. Counting their three goals against Vancouver on Wednesday night, the Blackhawks have now outscored opponents 22-12 in third periods.
Not bad for a team that hung onto leads by their fingernails last season. So whats been the difference this season? The personnel changes? A more confident attitude?
I think its probably a combination of those things, defenseman Duncan Keith said. Weve got depth now, and it gets everybody into the game, everybodys playing. A (good) start to this season was important and something we stressed; and I just think were committed to winning and doing what it takes.
Depth, as well as a few recent line tweaks, has helped plenty. The Blackhawks arent just depending on one line to score for them. Several lines have scored, as have several defensemen.
And theres balance. The whole four-lines-rolling mantra that coach Joel Quenneville preaches has been put into practice a lot lately, which means everyones staying fresher through 60 minutes.
More energy in the third period means more finish.
The Blackhawks endings have also compensated for some slow beginnings. They werent thrilled with the way they came out against the Canucks, who had more jump than they did in the first period. But by the end it was no contest.
We always feel like we can play better, and we seem to be getting better as the game goes on and on. You saw that last night, too. They took it to us early, and we came back roaring after that, Patrick Kane said. It seems like we keep getting better.
Viktor Stalberg said veterans have also spoken up when they feel the Blackhawks have needed to close out strong.
There have been a few occasions where we may not have played the way we wanted to in first two periods and guys like Johnny (Toews) and Jamal (Mayers) say, We have a chance here, thats not all weve got. So lets go prove it to ourselves, Stalberg said. We want to keep getting better and we are and its a good sign for our hockey club.
The Blackhawks are taking advantage of their third periods this season. They know the dangers of just holding on or just doing enough late in games. They want to go into the later part of this season with a stronger playoff position. Their late-game production should help toward that cause.
When the games are on the line were doing the right things, Quenneville said. Were more predictable in our team play. Were thinking more on the defensive side of things, which usually enhances offensive side. If were committed to that, well find a way to get it done.

As Spaces Art Gallery wraps up its final shows before moving to its new location on Detroit Avenue later this year, patrons were treated to an innovative show Saturday night curated by local experimental music connoisseurs Lisa Miralia and Craig Chojnicki, Expedition: Spaces II. Presented across four stations, patrons were guided throughout the gallery taking in multiple musical acts as well as performance art.
Billed as something of an immersive odyssey, the second annual show lacked the necessary aesthetic to adequately convey the style that the artists and performers were working towards. Poor or too much studio lighting often undercut the multiple visuals that depended on shadow play and projector displays. A stilted floor layout made for awkward transitions between sets. This is more of an indictment of Spaces than the actual show, considering this is the second Spaces event in a row that I’ve been to where the performers were left at the constraints of a well-meaning but overwhelmed studio space.
Patrons were greeted to an in-house DJ that offered fresh house music which found more than a few people shuffling their feet in rhythm. And here lies the rub. The enthusiasm fostered while anticipating the start of the show was culled once the crowd was corralled to their seats for the first set. The kinetic energy that was enjoyed through the DJ’s set was lost when the crowd had to take in electronic act, Machine Listener, sedentary and without the chance to get a groove on. While performing under his alter-ego, Matthew Gallagher’s music was inarguably on point, but it is an odd thing to simply sit and watch an electronic performer as one would watch a typical rock band or rap group. Ultimately, it is a man standing between two keyboards slightly nodding his head with little else to show for it. Not exactly a dynamic spectacle. This was a curious choice to start a show that boasted a strong immersive visual element. Offering transitions between sets, local spoken word performer, John Burroughs, guided guests from one end of the room to the other like some beach bum pied piper, in the best sense of the word.
The second act really conveyed the nature of the show as Mike McNamara and Nathan Melaragno offered a projection light show that served as a captivating homage to the early Pink Floyd sets played at London’s UFO Club in the 1960s. While Melaragno worked the light show, he projected it over McNamara as he conducted a fascinating set that incorporated ambient electronica, vintage record sampling, muddled voices trapped in static, and crunchy guitar feedback. With the house lights turned down, guests were able to dive deep into the world that the performers produced, both sonically and visually. A truly meditative session, McNamara and Melaragno’s set was concise and left the audience wanting more; a choice other acts could have benefited from.
The performance art of Marcia Custer, Alyssa D’Amico and Beth Lomske was an ambitious treatise on adolescence, viewed through the nostalgic lens of a slumber party. Opening their set by ordering a pizza delivery, the girls offered snatches of chatter, chronicling past mischiefs and childhood memories while looping acoustic guitar and electronic ambiance absolutely conveyed a bittersweet sentimentality to the affair. While sharing stories behind a sheet, only their silhouettes were visible until they emerged from under the curtain to roll along the ground dragging a bean bag chair around the floor. While there were uncomfortable moments where the audience were left as voyeurs and challenged to interpret the premise of their set, it was, perhaps, the only performance of the night with a complete and well-structured concept despite its ephemeral nature. It is fair to say that the set’s ending was somewhat awkward as the audience was left to watch three young women silently eat pizza in front of them for an extended amount of time.
Tim Kaiser closed out the show with a cavalcade of homemade instruments that left him looking a bit like a mad scientist. While multiple articles could be written just covering Kaiser’s innovation and fascinating creations. His set left me wanting to play with his toys rather than listen to them being played. Performing a low-key set is not an indictment, but aside from a metronomic bass line throughout, his molasses inspired set offered little in ways of rhythm or apparent composition. His curious noodlings were wildly impressive considering the hand crafted tools he used, but his slow, plodding set is basically how I imagine Purgatory to be a lot like.
As true to its nature, Spaces hosted another innovative and ambitious night of performances. Also true to its nature, Spaces proved insufficient to adequately provide its performers with the proper ambiance needed for such immersive presentations. Tighter set lists throughout would have given the audience a better opportunity to remain engaged in the sweltering studio. Despite the drawbacks, there was a clear sense of community shared between performers and patrons alike. Hopefully, Spaces can do more to honor this synergy when they stake their claim to their new turf later this year.

Thankyou Nathan for a wonderful day tour on Tuesday, it made our recent trip to Bruges very special.
For some time we have wanted to pay our respects to a generation now gone; and pray that it may never happen again. Nathan helped to make that happen and thank you. The sense of peace and beauty amongst the evidence of such horror with the sun low down on a warm, balmy evening where we walked alone at Tyne Cot, so silent ”at the going down of the sun”, will remain a lasting memory.
We could not have asked for a better tour or guide. Nathan was fantastic. Not only did he fill in some additional details about our relative’s loss of life he also adapted the day’s itinerary to visit the battle and commemoration sites, the latter only being in place for a week or so. And he did the same for a couple from New Zealand on our tour. He imparted his considerable knowledge and passion for the local history in an engaging and empathetic way. Nothing was too much trouble. Whilst my initial thought on booking was that it seemed a little expensive, the experience was well worth what we spent and more. I would highly recommend. Many thanks for making my father’s weekend, and for helping to fulfil a long-held desire to pay respect to those who fought in the First World War.
We had a great day being shown round some of the key battlegrounds and cemeteries around Ypres. Nathan has a very detailed knowledge of the various battles that took place in Flanders and makes that whole tragic period of European history come alive in a very vivid way. I had been on a Battlefield Tour twice before but never to the Passchendale Museum which is great with its dug out experience and reconstructed trenches, as is the revamped Flanders Museum in Ypres. Highly recommended!

For all its dazzling natural beauty, its medieval towns and unspoilt villages, the Spis region of eastern Slovakia is virtually unknown in Britain. And I, too, might never have heard of it if an ex from the region hadn't taken me there eight years ago.
That relationship might have ended, but my love affair with the place, its gregarious people and laid-back way of life, endures. And although English translations are slowly creeping into menus alongside the German and Polish entries, this remains one of the last corners of Europe where a British traveller is an exotic rarity.
Summers in mountainous Spis are lazy and relaxed, and the fields and forests fill with hikers and mushroom pickers. But it is the winters here that are really special as the landscape freezes and takes on a spectral, otherworldly beauty.
From first sight of the High Tatra mountains from the Poprad-bound plane, my last trip to see friends at Christmas proved even more spectacular than previous summer visits. The Tatra are always impressive, but when most of their great cloud-bothering bulk is encased in ice, they are truly astonishing.
Levoca, perhaps the loveliest of the Spis towns, was an ideal springboard for exploring the region by bus. Its Renaissance walled town centre with the lovely wooded Master Paul's square gives a glimpse of times past.
It also has some of the most distinctive hotels in the region, from the bright Hotel Arkada overlooking the square to the Hotel Faix, all spartan kitsch and worn Soviet decor.
Of the square's many historical sights, the 14th-century Gothic Church of Saint Jacob is perhaps most rewarding. Merely pretty from outside, it has an exquisite honeycomb interior whose detailing reminded me of Gaudí's work.
Master Paul's also contains a wrought iron "cage of shame", where minor criminals and adulterers were publicly humiliated in the 17th century. Its other slightly bleak attraction is a monument to the Soviet "liberation" of the town at the end of the second world war.
As darkness fell, so did more snow, providing us with a perfect excuse to shelter under the trees at the Christmas market. I bought a bag of vividly painted wooden toys and some tangy vianocka (raisin bread), then we wrapped our gloved hands around mugs of mulled wine while families and children talked happily around us.
Early next morning, swaddled in warm clothes and fortified by a hefty omelette at the Hotel Arkada, we set off for the fairytale basilica that sits atop Marianska Hora, the hill overlooking Levoca. The basilica has an ancient statue of the Virgin which draws thousands of pilgrims every year, but we were almost alone as we trudged through deep snow. The reward for reaching the summit was a view over miles of shimmering white countryside broken only by the spires of distant churches.
A bumpy desent by bus took us to the higgledy piggledy village of Spissky Podhradie, dominated by the imperious ruins of Spissky Hrad, central Europe's biggest castle and a Unesco heritage site. It was closed for winter, its walkways coated with ice, but we picked our way around its ramparts, feeling like hobbit extras in Lord of the Rings. Next to this pile, Windsor Castle would look like a toy from a Christmas cracker.
On the last day we caught the tram from nearby Poprad to Strbske Pleso, a national park that doubles as a winter sports resort, and we found ourselves weaving through gaggles of skiers and snowboarders, in air so crisp it felt like a respiratory MoT.
A mile above sea level and nestled among mountains, the resort takes its name from the pine-ringed glacial lake at its centre. A frail-looking chairlift whisks visitors up into the mountains, but instead we opted for a hike around the frozen water, whose surface resembled a vast, cracked mirror.
On our last evening in Levoca, a sudden, biting snowstorm whipped through the town. We found shelter in the modern but cosy Divadlo bar, presided over by husband and wife team Betka and Ladislav, who somehow remembered my preferred tipple from two and a half years before.
Squeezed between flirting local youths and striking local photography, my old friend Robbie Javorsky explained that Christmas - called Vianoce here - had been particularly important to Slovaks during the communist era, as it was one of the few religious traditions that was tolerated. The rituals of the Christmas Eve feast, the baked goods, fresh carp and wine, the candles and the songs, were yet to come. But for now we were content to sip eye-watering shots of Becherovka herbal liqueur, while the wind and the blizzards did battle outside.

We are Giselle and Cody. We are a loving, and trust worthy couple who adore animals and new experiences.
Housesitting is a great way to get to know the surrounding neighbourhood/village/city and feel more like locals than tourists. We also simply love spending time with animals and know how difficult it can be when you want to travel but you have pets at home. We can help.
We respect our home and our belongings, and in turn we respect others homes as well. We are also very clean and organized. The both of us much prefer nature and solitude, but love to visit big cities every once in a while.
Having travelled through, and lived in Thailand we spent 6 months at an elephant sanctuary caring for over 300 dogs there. We also lived in Bangkok for 3 months running and living at a cat shelter with over 40 cats. In addition to caring for animals in Thailand, we were invited to the kingdom of Bhutan to work with Humane Society Asia to create an educational video for their dog population management and rabies control program.
We continue to volunteer and work with animals when we can, and will always stop to say hello to a stray during our travels.
Giselle was an outstanding house/pet sitter. I felt at ease when I met her and Astaire and Ginger were very comfortable with her too. She kept in contact throughout the sit and shared how it was going and got back to me promptly if I checked in to see how it was going. When I came home, the apartment was extremely well looked after, tidy and the cats were both very happy and obviously well cared for. If another sit came up, I would be delighted to welcome Giselle back. I highly recommend her to others who are looking for a thoughtful, kind and considerate sitter who will look after your home and pet/s as if they were her own.
Giselle was an outstanding pet sitter. She communicated well before and during the sit sending us regular updates. Tuli suffers from chronic kidney disease and needed tablets and a subcutaneous fluid injection daily. Giselle had the training and expertise to care for her and even went to the trouble of picking up more supplies from the vet. Tuli looked happy and healthy on our return and we can't thank Giselle enough for all she did.
The house was kept clean and tidy whilst we were away. We highly recommend Giselle as a pet-sitter, she has so much experience especially with old, fussy, ill cats, like our little feline! Thank you.
We can't say enough about Giselle as a sitter! She looked after our dog for 4 nights while we were away for an extended long weekend and made us feel like we were leaving Dexter in the most capable hands. She loved our dog in a way we could have only hoped for, and made every extra effort to make Dexter as comfortable as could be. We got to see the two of them regularly on social media, which was a fantastic way to stay in touch - based on the pictures and videos we got to see every day, it was always clear that Dexter was happy and well looked after. Giselle really went above and beyond the call of duty. When our flight was canceled on Sunday evening to return home, she did not hesitate to offer to stay with our precious fur ball so he wouldn't be left alone. She really is an angel and we are so grateful for her devotion to her time with him. She was very detail oriented and followed all of our instructions caring for Dex, which included administering meds and lifting all 90 lbs of him in and out of a car. When we returned home after our time away, our bed was made with fresh sheets and the apartment was spotless. We couldn't have found a more perfect sitter or companion for Dex for our time away. We would VERY highly recommend Giselle as a pet/house sitter; she takes what she does seriously with lots of devotion and is a huge animal lover. We look forward to a long lasting relationship with our new found friend and can't wait to meet Cody someday too, hopefully for another sit.

If this one doesn't put a smile on your face, I don't know what will. Based on a true story, Cruise Quarters from Cara and Ray Bertoia is a romantic comedy about a woman whose unlucky-in-love past is about to meet its match on board a luxury cruise ship departing for exotic ports around the globe. Managing to be informative about cruises and richly detailed with the locales while offering a compelling romance and plenty of laughs, this novel is a gem that is nothing short of a vacation in a book!
Cara Bertoia tells us about herself.
Growing up in a straight laced Southern family, I was always fascinated with casinos. In my twenties on a summer hiatus from teaching in North Carolina, I drove to California and became a dealer at Caesars in Lake Tahoe. Well, I can tell you that after teaching high school, handling an unruly gambler was a piece of cake. My mother highly disapproved of my working in a casino, "a place so bad it has 'sin' in the middle."
Eventually, I succumbed to pressure from the family and returned east to take a high-tech job in Boston. I also began working on my MFA in writing at Emerson. I wanted to write the first realistic novel about casino life from the perspective of an experienced table games dealer. I am always amazed that normal and sometimes quite intelligent players become absolutely clueless in the casino. They repeat superstitious nonsense and no amount of logic can change their position, maybe my novel will.

I like Actionetics because it not just replaces your email advertising and marketing yet messenger marketing and SMS marketing software applications as well. This takes automation to an entire new level and aids you interact the best message to your customers, exactly when they need it. A video clip review of Actionetics will certainly be given additionally listed below.
A fantastic attribute within ClickFunnels is the capability to accumulate all the invoicing information from your consumers right on your sales page. Selling is made a lot easier when clients don’t have to leave your website.
ClickFunnels integrates with significant repayment entrances such as PayPal, Stripe, and also InfusionSoft, among others.
I’ll go into detail for each of these strategies listed below.
The basic strategy includes every one of the attributes you would need within ClickFunnels, however with limitations on the variety of funnels (20) and also pages (100) you could have in your account, in addition to how many visitors (20K) can see your pages each month.
You also do not receive sophisticated capability such as ClickFunnels very own e-mail advertising and marketing and also associate tracking devices.
This strategy includes all the bells as well as whistles of the standard plan, with no restrictions. It likewise has two additional products created by ClickFunnels called Actionetics (email advertising) and Knapsack (affiliate administration system).
In Knapsack – with the click of a mouse, you could add an associate program to any of your funnels. After that Knapsack will certainly track your clicks, sales, as well as just how much to pay your associate partners.
If there’s one concern I obtain usually, it’s “Which ClickFunnels Plan should I get”?
The difference between the two plans truly is the restrictions, and also Actionetics/Backpack. If you are a standard individual as well as don’t expect to make use of greater than 20 funnels in your account – the Criterion Plan ought to suffice.
However, if you intend to have an associate program or intend to keep your e-mail advertising within ClickFunnels as well as not use a third party software, the Etison Suite is for you.
You can constantly begin on the reduced strategy and upgrade if needed.
For any person that’s significant concerning their organisation, the ClickFunnels Funnel Hacks System is the bargain of the century.
The $997 Funnel Hacks System includes robust training programs packed with 6-month access to the ClickFunnels Etison Suite.
This is an extraordinary deal since outside of this program, 6-months of Etison Collection alone would certainly cost you $1782.
Not just are you conserving $785 however you’re obtaining a lots of trainings and also guides to assist you obtain the most out of ClickFunnels!

Exceptionally energetic Facebook Team Community.
Free 14-Day Trial – permits you to attempt it take the chance of free.

Many individuals ask how ClickFunnels compares with other touchdown page contractors such as Leadpages, Unbounce, and also Infusionsoft.
Essentially it’s not really a fair contrast due to the fact that each of these tools succeeds is one area or the various other.
The graph over provides an extensive evaluation – yet I’ll highlight several of the major comparisons below.
Prior to ClickFunnels, Leadpages was the large pet dog.
Leadpages is simply a lead capture software – nothing more. You could develop touchdown web pages, lead boxes, accumulate leads … that’s basically it. In addition, the Leadpages templates are likewise limited on personalization.
Basically, Leadpages is truly simply a touchdown page contractor, while ClickFunnels is concentrated around constructing highly incorporated funnels.
Infusionsoft is not a touchdown web page or sales page building contractor. It has several of that capability constructed it, yet that’s not just what it’s known for.
At it’s core, Infusionsoft is a CRM platform – one that allows you to manage your whole consumer database. ClickFunnels has this capability with Actionetics, yet it’s not virtually as progressed as Infusionsoft.
Infusionsoft is additionally extremely pricey and also forces every new consumer to pay $2000 for a mandatory kickstart coaching plan just to find out how you can utilize the complicated system (which is notoriously tough to utilize).
There are two major courses people go down as ClickFunnels users.
Those that choose to make use of the device for their service – in hopes of eventually attain both Comma Club (over $1M in revenue).
And also those that are interested in earning passive earnings as a ClickFunnels Affiliate as well as winning the Desire Vehicle Competition (where they pay $500/$1000 in the direction of your dream cars and truck if you get to 100/200 active monthly signups, respectively).
With a whopping 40% monthly persisting commission, ClickFunnels quickly has among the best associate programs of any platform out there.
That’s right – you make money an ongoing 40% compensation on every associate signup you make through the ClickFunnels Associate Program. Yet, what does that truly correspond to?
The basic plan is a $97/month investment as well as the Etison Collection strategy is a $297/month investment. therefore you make $38.80 per standard strategy and $118.80 per Etison Suite strategy … each and every month!
Typically, every 100 signups will certainly bring in $4000/month in affiliate commissions (basically depending on how many Etison Strategy individuals remain in there).
Visit this site for more information concerning becoming a ClickFunnels Associate.
ClickFunnels is by far the greatest system if you are wanting to quickly develop high converting sales funnels.
Due to the fact that it was developed from the ground up to be the best sales funnel home builder, it defeats every one of the competition in that regard.

The former Solicitor General of India, a key member of "Team Anna" that spearheaded a strong anti-corruption movement in the country in 2011, said he would participate in the strike only "for a while" because he has other commitments.
"If I am free on October 2, I will certainly go (to Ralegan Siddhi) or else some other day. I am with Anna Hazare (on this issue)," the former Karnataka Lokayukta told PTI. Hazare had said he would go on a hunger strike from October 2, the birth anniversary of Mahatma Gandhi, at his native Ralegan Siddhi village in Ahmednagar district of Maharashtra, and also appealed people to join him in his campaign for a corruption-free country.
"But there is a lack of will in this government to curb corruption and hence, it is giving a lot of reasons and delaying the appointment of the Lokpal," Hazare said.
Echoing his sentiments, Hegde said "it's quite some time since assurance was given, the law has been passed. For some reason or the other they are not making an appointment."
The Supreme Court had last week rejected as "wholly unsatisfactory" the Centre's submission on the issue of setting up a search committee for the Lokpal and demanded a "better affidavit" within four weeks. Earlier this month, the Lokpal selection committee, headed by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, held its meeting to set up a search panel for recommending names for the appointment of the Lokpal and its members.
The Congress nominee Mallikarjun Kharge, who is special invitee" to the selection committee, did not attend it. In a letter to the Prime Minister, Kharge said he will not attend the meeting till the time the leader of the single largest opposition party is made a full-fledged member of the panel.
On this, Hegde said "one man can't hold the committee for ransom", and added that the government should go ahead on the issue of Lokpal appointment. "It can't be used an excuse". "That's the impression anybody would get", Hegde said when asked if he felt the government is deliberately delaying the appointment process but hastened to add that he is blaming every party as none of them want a strong ombudsman-institution.
Citing examples, he said the institution of Lokayukta has been weakened after the Congress came to power in Karnataka in 2014 and also talked about a recent dilution of powers of the institution in Tamil Nadu and West Bengal. "I blame every political party; they don't want a strong ombudsman-institution," Hegde added.

text: Biscuitville is a privately held, limited-service chain that specializes in made-from-scratch biscuit sandwiches and classic Southern cuisine. The chain is only open during breakfast and lunch hours. The concept originated in Danville, Virginia, and has since expanded regionally while never straying from its original vision—“fresh, friendly and fast.” All Biscuitville units are freestanding and average 2,000 to 3,500 square feet with seating for 60 to 100. Originally conceived as a pizza joint by Maurice Jennings in 1966, Pizzaville (as it was originally named) offered hand-tossed pizzas by night and rolled out biscuits by day to occupy the pizza ovens during the morning hours. It wasn’t long before the biscuits were outselling the pizza. Jennings converted his six Pizzaville units into Biscuitvilles, and began to open new units throughout Virginia and North Carolina. The company has controlled growth by owning all of its units and not allowing franchise agreements.

Private Funds Management (PFM), which delivers the most crucial financial, operational and legal news functions globally to professionals within private equity firms, referred to survey results from Duff & Phelps’ recent European Alternative Investments Conference to highlight the importance of the Senior Managers Certification Regime (SMCR).
Dubbing SMCR as what will be the most important acronym for UK-focused asset managers in 2019, PFM drew on the conference’s survey results to illustrate that most valuation professionals were ill-prepared to take on the responsibility that SMCR demands, with 39% needing more information, and 39% not willing to take on the responsibility at all. Only 23% of participants felt ready and willing to take on the responsibilities that SMCR entails.
The SMCR, which will be introduced by the Financial Conduct Authority at the end of the year, will replace the Approved Persons Regime. SMCR is pertinent to all aspects of operation in the context of private equity, but particularly valuations. The reluctance illustrated by the survey results are justified, as SMCR will increase the scope of accountability to parties involved - and their culpability. The contradiction being that to accurately value portfolio companies, input is required from a range of people, and while the deal team likely have best insight into the performance of portfolio companies, responsibility will naturally fall upon the C-suite (especially the Chief Financial Officer).
Anticipating these findings, Duff & Phelps dedicated a workshop at the European Alternative Investments Conference specifically to SMCR in an effort to arm and educate conference attendees.

I am writing to thank you, for inventing the Kan! My Kan was a talking point and often strangers would come up and ask me about Kan and where they would be able to get such a product? I had no hestitation, and still no hestitation, to tell others where to obtain a Kan as it is by far the best product I have put on me.
I absolutely adore the Kan body protector. The attention to detail in the design is evidently enormous. The shape & support it provides is fantastic, it makes me feel very safe which I think nowadays in this sport is imperative.
"This body protector allows me to breathe and maintain my own oxygen levels and performance; I find the Kan very comfortable and my movement is not restricted at all"
I put my KAN body protector to the ultimate test. The horse somersaulted and as he rolled over me, I heard my hat crack. He seemed to be on top of me for ages until he struggled to his feet.
The paramedics said to my mother in the ambulance that my body protector was without a doubt the best one they had ever seen, they said if only they could design something like that for cyclists they wouldn’t see half the injuries they do.
Recently I had the misfortune to fall of my pony at speed hitting a wooden upright fence as I went and then the floor. Luckily for me I was wearing my KAN body protector. At the time of impact and on hearing that horrible sound of bones breaking I wished that my protector covered me from tip to toe.
I have now had my Kanteq protector for a year and always wear it to ride. At 60 years old I don’t compete in dangerous events, but love to hack in the the beautiful forest where we live, or take part in an occasional pleasure ride.
My Kan was a Christmas present two years ago from my Parents, to go with the unbroken 4 year old I had just purchased. I had always had a Body Protector, but only wore it when I had to as I suffer from Claustrophobia and the restricted feeling it gave me would put me on the verge of a panic attack.
