Why is it a good idea your dog to be micro chipped?

Microchipping your pet has never been much of importance to many people all over the world. It is a simple task without many efforts and costs, and with better end for lots of owners.

The cost of microchipping your dog is varying between £15-30£ depending on your vet. And it is the best solution that is worth doing, in case you do not want to pay a fine of £500 or go in jail, because of not microchipping your partner in crime. Besides, this is already a law since April 2016.

I was wondering why people do not want to microchip their pets especially when it is a part of the law and when it makes your life easier if your lover gets lost or runaway. Have you ever asked yourselves what are you going to do if someone steals it from you? What is the chance to find it then if not been microchipped? That is why I decided to ask some owners I saw on the street while walking my dog what do they think about microchipping.

These are the questions:

Owners seen on the street:

1st person:

1. Have you microchipped your dog?

– Well, not really. I have microchipped it, but I have not still registered it. I don’t know why.

2. Do you know about the law that is in action since Spring last year about fines and jails for not microchipping your pet?

– (Person 1) No, I had no idea about that. What are the fines?

– (Me): The fine of not having microchipped your doggy is £500. Why haven’t you registered it yet? What are you going to do if he runs away or you lose him?

– (Person 1): Oh god! I’d better go and do it! I haven’t thought about that to be honest. I was hoping that this will never happen. Probably you are right. I have been too busy to do that, but now as I talked to you it seems that this is for the good of my dog.

2nd person:

3. Why do you think microchipping is a good idea?

– First of all, I am following the law. Secondly, I did it right after I bought my dog. Just in case I lose her, although there is no big chance as you can see how big she is.

4. Did you know that statistics say missing pets rarely make it home? Besides, if not microchipped it may not be reunited with its owner even if got lost and found. What do you think about people that are not doing that?

– This is not serious. All of us know what is the chance your dog to runaway especially if it is a big dog like mine. Moreover, it cannot only run away, but get lost as well. Then what are you going to do? People who own animals should think in advance. They should take better care of their puppies and do as much as they can so they can protect them. As a whole those animals, sooner or later become part of the family and now my Shelly (the dog’s name) is like my third child. I cannot imagine my life without her. I don’t want to end up like those people who abandon their pets. That is insane! Besides, everybody would want to find their pets if lost, so I would advise all of you that are reading this article: Please, do take care of your animals! They are investing so much in you! They are making your lives better in any way, do something for them too! It’s not too hard to chip and register your pet, but it is hard to find it if lost!

All of us that have animals know what kind of happiness and joyfulness they give us. Even though with not so much effort they can make our days, never mind if this effort is for splitting the water or for doing something stupid for a bit more attention. Don’t go so far to look for your partner in crime instead of looking after it! Don’t lose it! Don’t leave it without the necessary attention because it can run away! Keep it safe so no one can steal it! And the most important thing, microchip it! This is the smallest and best thing you can do for both your dog and yourself. It’s not only necessary, but also helpful in different situations like the one I have already mentioned! Besides, when people abandon their pets and they get aggressive, when microchipped we can understand who’s the owner of the dog.

P.S. To the people who had done that… please, do ask yourselves these questions: Why do you have to abandon your pet at all? What did it do to you? Made you laugh when you were sad? Or probably licked your tears when you were crying?

The Big, Bad List of Pre-SEO Questions You Need to Answer, Part VI

So far in this series of questions we've discussed in-sourcing your search marketing efforts, answering questions related to doing SEO yourselfSubbing out SEOhiring an in-house SEO with and without SEO experience. In Part V we started moving into the realm of outsourcing your SEO campaign completely, asking questions regarding of hiring an SEO consultant and what that may mean to your marketing campaign efforts.
Today we'll look at the questions pertaining to hiring a multi-person SEO/M firm to manage your campaign. By asking and answering these questions you'll better understand the differences between a consultant and a firm and give you the ammunition you need to decide which, if any, is the better route for you to take.
Question 41: Do I Hire an SEM Firm? The primary difference between hiring an SEO firm vs. hiring a consultant is the number of people that are available and working on your campaign. Consultants are generally one-person operations while an SEO firm may have anywhere from two to twenty to two-hundred people working for them, with anywhere from one to a dozen people working on your account. What that means to you can be assessed by answering the questions below.
Question 42: Will a firm have qualified people working on my account? The hiring process of each SEO firm can differ radically. Some firms will only hire "names" who they can verify know their stuff. Other firms prefer to hire people they have to train because they come with a significantly reduced paycheck. Others may hire someone with some experience but neither has the price tag of having an industry recognized name, nor do they have to train them to do the job. Yet still, any firm may have a combination of all of the above. While there is nothing wrong to having newbies working on your account, it is important that you know that there will be ongoing oversight by someone who knows what they are doing.
Question 43: Will a firm have too many clients to give me quality time? Regardless of the size of the firm or the number of people on the team, there is problem issue that can prevent any firm from being effective: Taking on too much work. Any firm you considering hiring needs to know where their boundaries are in terms of how many clients they can take on at a time. If they know their limits then they must be willing to turn work away if they think it will interfere with their current accounts. If they want to continue to take on more work they they should also have a pool of new talent readily available as needed.
Question 44: Does the size of the firm matter to me? The size of the firm shouldn't matter so much as the ability of the firm to do it's job and to do it well. But there is an issue of how personalized the service will be and how well you will be able to interact with the "machinery" that often clogs the wheels of communication. The larger the business the more difficult it often becomes to reach your project manager. On the other hand, smaller firms can have similar problems simply because of the lack of resources and time for the fewer people in charge.
Question 45: Is the firm a "ranking factory" or will they be sure to pay attention to my needs? Very large firms tend to hire a lot of lower skilled individuals and give them largely repetitive tasks. Because the skill and experience level of these employees is so low its often the case that your account doesn't get much personalized attention. While it's easy to automate the basics with low-level employees, someone needs to be able to analyze your account to assess problem areas and then to assign them to someone who is knowledgeable enough in how to fix them.
Question 46: How responsive will my search marketing firm be with my concerns?When you have concerns regarding your account you need to know who you can address them with. Larger firms often provide you with an account manager that is it be available to help with any concerns and to answer all your questions. However if too many people are in your account working on auto-pilot the project manager's knowledge of your account may be limited. This isn't always the case, but definitely can be a concern. Smaller firms, however can often lack the resources as mentioned above, to be able to address the very same concerns.
Question 47: Will my calls and emails get answered? While any firm can hire a receptionist to take calls, the level of service you get can be a primary concern. Call and emails both can often go unreturned for days. Any SEO firm you hire should have a policy of getting back to you within 24 hours or less. You have to be confident that your needs will be addressed in a timely manner.
The primary concern you must have when hiring either a firm or a consultant is that they'll spend adequate time on your account to ensure your success. SEO is not good if the people you hire are too busy working on more important clients! In the next installment we'll look at questions related to costs involved and ensuring you're getting what you're paying for.

Claim Pot15 - Pot legal in 15 states by 2020

Category: Politics:US Politics bid 1, ask 9, last 10
Owner:3899, Zucchini
Judge:97, Loophole
due date:2020/01/01

The Claim

Recreational use of marijuana will be legal in 15 US States by 2020.

In this case, "legal" means that a majority of adult residents of the state will have some legal way to purchase or grow marijuana, without a medical prescription, and will have some way to consume it, without breaking the state's laws.

The laws can be limited in many ways while still allowing the claim to be judged true, including but not limited to: age restrictions, location restrictions for where marijuana can be bought or consumed, time of day restrictions, felon status restrictions, or requirements for purchase of a license (so long as a majority of adults are eligible for the license, without need for a medical prescription).

The US Federal Government's stance of marijuana will have no bearing on the claim. If 15 states pass laws legalizing marijuana in the manner described above, the claim will be judged TRUE even if the Federal Government makes it difficult or impossible to sell or consume marijuana.

If at any time before 2020, 15 states concurrently allow legal purchase (or growth) and consumption of marijuana, the claim may be judged TRUE early. The claim may be judged TRUE even if some states later re-enact laws against marijuana.

As of the writing of this claim (April 2014), one state, Colorado, currently allows legal purchase and consumption of marijuana in the manner described above. While Washington has laws in place for legal sale and consumption of marijuana, there are no legal dispensaries operating in the state (yet), and so there is currently NO legal way for the majority of adults to purchase marijuana without a medical prescription, so it does not qualify.

Tutorial for editing glprog files
« on: August 29, 2015, 04:04:31 PM »
Is there a tutorial somewhere that explains how to edit the files in the glprogs folder such as interaction.vfp? I've always been interested in modifying those files but never actually tried it out. I want the game to be shinier.

Are you looking for a partner to solve your demanding design & manufacturing challenges?

Now you have
found one.

Voltage regulators for synchronous machines & subassemblies

In 1986 IECO started a co-operation with ABB Finland in designing and manufacturing voltage regulators (AVR). Since then, a versatile line of excitation products, subassemblies and control cabinets have been created. Product rights of the digital AVR originally developed by IECO were sold to ABB Switzerland in year 2000. This AVR subsequently formed the base of ABB's global Unitrol 1000 product family.

The key IECO articles in excitation are AVR plates & control cabinets and GX300 voltage regulators and their variants. Applications vary from nuclear power plants to small back-up generators.

Since 1986 IECO has delivered 4000 GX regulators including dozens of different excitation plate variations with both single and redundant AVR topology.

DM-10 diode monitor

The diode monitor is used with brushless synchronous generators for detecting diode failure in the rotating rectifier.

The diode failure is detected by measuring the current from the exciter field winding. When one of the diodes in the rotating rectifier fails, an AC current is induced in the exciter field winding. This AC current is summed with the DC current from the regulator. The diode failure is detected by analyzing the frequence induced by the failure.

Commissioning services

In order to supply a full scale of service IECO also provides commissioning services for voltage regulators and subassemblies.

Jesús Huerta de Soto's Money, Bank Credit, and Economic Cycles (2nd Edition) PDF

Can the marketplace absolutely deal with the cash and banking sector?

Huerta de Soto, professor of economics on the Universidad Rey Juan Carlos, Madrid, has made heritage with this colossal and intriguing treatise that it has and will back, with no inflation, with out company cycles, and with out the industrial instability that has characterised the age of presidency control.

Such a ebook as this comes alongside just once each numerous generations: a whole finished treatise on monetary conception. it's sweeping, innovative, and devastating--not basically the main prolonged elucidation of Austrian company cycle concept to ever seem in print but additionally a decisive vindication of the Misesian-Rothbardian point of view on cash, banking, and the law.

Guido has acknowledged that this is often the main major paintings on cash and banking to seem considering the fact that 1912, whilst Mises's personal ebook was once released and altered the way in which all economists considered the subject.

Its 5 major contributions:

a wholesale reconstruction of the criminal framework for funds and banking, from the traditional global to trendy times,
an program of law-and-economics common sense to banking that hyperlinks microeconomic research to macroeconomic phenomena,
a complete critique of fractional-reserve banking from the perspective of historical past, thought, and policy,
an software of the Austrian critique of socialism to important banking,
the such a lot entire examine banking firm from the viewpoint of market-based entrepreneurship.
Those are the details yet, in truth, this merely scratches the outside. certainly, it might be tricky to overestimate the significance of this e-book. De Soto offers additionally a security of the Austrian point of view on enterprise cycles opposed to any other conception, defends the a hundred% reserve viewpoint from the perspective of Roman and British legislations, takes at the most vital objections to complete reserve thought, and offers an entire coverage application for radical reform.

It was once Hülsmann's assessment of the Spanish variation that encouraged the interpretation that resulted in this Mises Institute variation in English. the result's astounding: an 875-page masterpiece that completely demolishes the case for fiat forex and valuable banking, and exhibits that those associations have compromised fiscal balance and freedom, and, in addition, are insupportable in a unfastened society.

De Soto has set new scholarly criteria with this distinctive dialogue of economic reform from an Austro-libertarian perspective. Huerta de Soto s strong elaboration of his arguments alongside those traces makes his treatise a version representation of the Austrian method of the research of the connection among legislations and economics.

It might take a decade for the complete implications of this ebook to be absorbed yet this a lot is obvious: all severe scholars of those issues should grasp this treatise.

Sample text

According to Walsh, a democratic parliament should specify the fmal targets the central bank is supposed to implement in a contract, and then let the bank choose the instruments to implement these goals on her own (she gets operational independence). The central bankers should be paid according to the performance achieved, and the contract has to be designed to give the appropriate incentives. It turns out that - at least in theory - the Walsh contract performs much better than the Rogoff delegation mechanism.

Mechanism Design for Central Banks 39 make matters even more complicated: how should we cope with committee decisions in this context? To summarize: Rogoffs story is quite helpful as a first step in demonstrating the advantage of central bank independence; yet it is not much more than that. It certainly gives no justification for demands to make monetary policy completely resistant against democratic control, and it does not give much guidance for how far independence should go. There have been quite some fruitful extensions of the approach - such as Lohmann (1992) and - for the trade off between independence and accountability - Fratianni, von Hagen and Waller (1997) and Waller and Walsh (1996).

Once inflationary expectations have been set in stage 2, however, the optimization problem for a social planner trying to maximize welfare has changed. Given low inflationary expectations, there is an incentive to raise inflation above the announced level. This incentive problem is essentially a dynamic moral hazard problem.

The "Wissenschaftstagung Ökologischer Landbau" is an important scientific conference on organic agriculture for german speakiing countries. In 2017 four presentations were given by the German IMPRO team: Marget Krieger gave a presentation on production diseases in organic dairy herds and on the interaction of system variables and production dieseases. Susanne Hoischen-Taubner gave a talk on failure costs due to udder diseases and lameness in German organic dairy farms. Albert Sundrum presented conclusions on homeopathic treatments in organic dairy farming.

You can find all abstracts on Organic Eprint.

In 2016 four more articles were published in scientific journals:

  • Julie Duval and her Co authors published two articles on the participatory approach and the perception of veterinary practicioners.
  • Philip Jones and Co authors succeedes in publishing an article on European organic dairy farmers’ intentions to improve herd health.
    All three articles were published  in Preventive Veterinary Medicine.
  • An article on the efficacy of homeopathy in livestock by Caroline Doehring and Albert Sundrum ws published in Veterinary Record.

See the IMPRO publication list for more details.

During 29th World Buiatrics Congress in Dublin several members of the IMPRO team presented outcome of the project to an interested audience:

Henk Hogeveen gave the key note and Felix van Soest a presentation in the economic session. Caroline Doehring and Diana Keller presented some results on the current use of homeopathy and conclusions on the efficacy of homeopahthy in a session on complementary medicine. Margret Krieger presented a poster on the participatory on-farm approach in the Herd Health Management poster session and another poster on the prevalence of production diseases in the Animal Welfare session.

Rachel Vanya says Thanks Amit. Because the technology is high-tech, you may want to target technology blogs and journalists. I’d see what tech bloggers mention when they do talk about geo-mapping. Then tailor your content around that. For your local SEO to be effective, you need to make sure you have a consistent NAP – name, address and phone number.

Sita Jayaraman, Director Community Services at Indus, welcomed the gathering and acknowledged the Funders, Board Members & Community Partners in attendance. In his opening address, Indus Board Chair, Mandeep Grewal, shared his thoughts on the impact to children exposed to gender based violence. As well, a welcoming message from the Honorable Minister of the Status of Women, Harinder Mahli was broadcasted.

Our Keynote Speaker, Deepa Mattoo, Legal Director, Barbra Schlifer Clinic, provided an overview of current systems that interact with survivors of Gender Based Violence, the barriers that survivors experience to a sustainable violence free life and a summary of best practices and approaches to understanding and responding.  Participants had the opportunity to share their reflections of women’s triumphs and challenges over the past 100 years and their vison for a just, equitable and inclusive future for women.

Rita Czarny, Family Mediator, reminded every-one of the importance of laughter and relaxation with a 30 minute demonstration of laughter yoga which was followed by the awards ceremony for Champion for Social Justice, Compassion and Courage & Strength.

Forever The Sickest Kids Album Will Not Feature Guest Vocals From Patrick Stump

Facebooktwittertumblrby feather

forever the sickest kids

Although Patrick Stump (Fall Out Boy) co-wrote “Nikki” with FTSK and had expressed possible interest in singing on the track, the band has confirmed via tweet that Stump will not be on the album. You can view all upcoming FTSK tour dates and buy concert tickets here. You can pre-order  J.A.C.K. here. Head below to read an excerpt from FTSK’s April Alternative Press interview discussing collaborations and the tweet from the band confirming that Stump will not be featured on the album.

Can we expect any collaborations on the album?
We haven’t finalized the collaborations on the album just yet, but we did co-write “Nikki” with Patrick Stump. We reached out to him to see if he wants to be part of the song, or if it even makes sense time wise because they’re putting out a new album, so he may be too busy. He did express interest in possibly singing on “Nikki.” We’re also fetching a couple other features from other artists we’re fans of.

Navigation Design Patterns of the iPAD apps

I’ve been looking deeper these days into the best practise for the iPAD application design. As a result, I’ve assembled a few interesting examples which illustrate the navigation design patterns for the iPAD apps. I hope you’ll find it useful!

A sidebar is a popular way to navigate through most of the iPAD apps. Here are some examples of where they are placed and how they guide the user through the app:

Twitter ipad app sidebar
Twitter iPAD app’s sidebar.

The { Flipboard } app has the main sidebar collapsed by default. Tapping on the blinking red ribbon slides out the sidebar with two panels:

flipboard ipad app navigation

flipboard ipad app navigation

To close the sidebar, one needs to tap on the greyed out content.

Buttons & Tabs

The main sections are often displayed in the top section or the bottom section of the screen:

Source: Curioux Blog
Source: Curioux Blog

This sort of navigation is most relevant for the content apps.

The French TV channel’s { Canal + } app enables the user to browse through the app’s sections using the buttons in the bottom. The top links are then visible once a user is within the section and thus serve as the aid to browse within a section (secondary navigation):

canalplus ipad navigation design

The { Ted } app’s main sections are located in the bottom of the screen. The secondary navigation within the homepage is slightly above. Tapping on the button such as “top tags” pops-out the menu which enables the user to filter the “featured” videos (secondary navigation):

ted ipad app - navigation design patterns

Personally, I find both styles of navigation easily understandable. The only thing is that on the Ted’s app the secondary navigation is more visible because it is against a different background. I find the secondary navigation on the Canal+ app blending in too much with the contents. One really needs to look to see it – it does not stand out enough, don’t you think?

And here is the menu bar of the { MOMA } app. Tapping on the menu opens up the sub-menu which is attached to the main bar:

moma ipad app navigation design

Layered Navigation

A good example of such navigation is the { Twitter } app which seems to have set the trend for this pattern.

The left panel is the menu bar.

The middle panel is the listing section (index of contents)

The right panel displays the contents.

Tapping on the item within the middle listing section, collapses the left menu bar and shows the preview of the contents within the right panel:

ipad navigation model - twitter

If pertinent (the shared contents is a web page or so), the middle panel also collapses once the item is tapped on and the full contents is displayed on an expanded right panel:

ipad navigation model - twitter

Flexible Pop-out Navigation

When in the landscape view, the { Epicurious iPAD application } displays the left sidebar integrated with the right panel:

ipad navigation model - epicurious

When in the portrait view, the menu “pops-out” allowing the user to close it completely by tapping on the appeared “control panel” button:

ipad navigation model - epicurious

In a similar fashion, the { Guardian eyewitness application } also enables to browse through the photos by tapping on the index button and then shows the other photos in a “pop-out” panel within which you can slide the photos:

guardian eyewitness pop-out menu

This way the user has more space to browse through the content while not compromising on the breathing space and making the overall experience more pleasant. That’s “user friendly” , isn’t it?

Grid-style Navigation

I particularly like the { FontBook } iPAD app which invites us to discover the world of typography in such a playful and elegant fashion…

The listing page is of the grid layout:

Fontbook - ipad navigation design patterns

Tapping on the item opens another page while having the “zoom in” effect:

Fontbook - ipad navigation design patterns

One can understand that this is a “sub-category” because of the different color palette as well as the bread-crumb navigation forming in the bottom of the screen:

Fontbook - ipad navigation design patterns

Then, when we arrive at the actual font-level, we see the font in its full glory on a seperate page:

font details page

The similar fonts (listing section) is then shown on the left in case we wanted to view another font. The call to action “buy font” is prominently yet very elegantly displayed in the bottom right corner:

call to action

and the share button in the form of a plus sign is displayed in the top right corner:

call to action

The grid layout and the tap create a feeling of discovery, of play. It is fun to browse and discover the fonts in such a way. The font details page showcases the font in a very pleasant fashion and one can truly enjoy viewing it. Such experience really motivates to buy the font – we want to own it. Very well done – thumbs up for the Fontbook team!

Another very interesting iPAD app is the { Chinagram }. It tells the history of the Chinese Writing. I love not only the design of this app, but the overall idea of it. Really nice… Their navigation’s idea is similar to the Fontbook’s one but is a bit differently implemented.

Tapping on the category slides down the listing of the items just below. Tapping on the category icon once again, collapses the listing of items.

Tapping on the actual symbol opens up the symbol page. Then I can explore other symbols by tapping on the button in the sidebar just at the bottom. It expands the other symbols within the same category. To switch the categories there is an index button just in the top of the sidebar.

Listing & Grid Type Navigation

In some cases giving a user options on how s/he could browse the content – in the listing or grid fashion, for example, – can create a more personalized and fun experience. Let’s have a look how this is done on the { Jamie Oliver } iPAD app.

The default view is the “featured recipe” and the “listing in the grid fashion” just below it:

Tapping on the listing button changes the view into the sidebar panel and the grid layout on the right. Fun and beautiful, isn’t it?

I’ll be on the look-out for the other navigation styles on the iPAD apps. If you discover anything on your side, would you mind sharing them in the comments box below? Thanks!

Your Very Own Personal Interior Design Guide

Just the thought of interior design can give people the urge to hang onto their wallet. However, this article will give you some great advice on how to create a fresh, new look for your home in a cost-effective way. Read further for some useful tips.

Before you start designing your space, make a decision on what type of mood you want the room to have. Your moods can vary so you want to create one in the room you are decorating. Selecting a mood you like prior to beginning will help you make the decisions as you plan for the space creating a cohesive feel when complete.

Make sure to not only use different colors, but vary the textures and patterns also. Varying textures create interest and depth in a room, while patterns provide a contrast to smooth pieces such as wood furniture or window glass. If you aim to give a room a more contemporary look and appeal, you’ll want to include pattern and texture in its design scheme.

Seriously think about your financial situation and what your budget is for interior design before you spend the money. If you do not possess the money to do a project, it can be devastating. Reducing financial worry can help you to focus on the job at hand.

As you plan your interior design layout, keep it realistic. You want to add some personality to the decor, but don’t be outlandish, especially if its a permanent fixture. If you ever plan to sell your home, your outlandish decor may drive away potential buyers. If you want to dabble in unique decorating options, be certain that they can be undone with ease.

Think about including some fresh design elements into your space. They make a room feel stylish and modern. But, you should only add modern decorations as accents, not permanent fixtures. If the zebra print pillows you use are out of style, swap them for something else. A zebra print sofa won’t be as easy to replace.

One way to quickly update any room is for you to focus on your accessories. Replace your accent pieces, fans and lighting fixtures in the room. Matching tea towels can create a personalized look to your living space too. Some easy alterations, such as these, can give a room a whole new look without spending a lot of money.

Good design projects almost always involve good lighting. A variety of options exist that can allow you to bring more light to a room. Windows, lamps, mirrors, skylights or possibly candles, are some of the many choices. You can add an instant revamp simply by incorporating these items into something that works well for you.

The next time you decide to liven up a room with new paint, consider painting your ceiling with “ceiling white”. This paint is different from standard paint because it will bounce the light back down into the room. If you use this shade, you will see a big improvement in the lighting quality of the room.

If there are a lot of items in your home, you should keep the walls very simple. Some people tend to keep way more things than others. If you have a lot of valuables that you will not put in storage, do not put anything on your walls. Anything else could make your home appear cluttered.

The article above has shown that a bit of creativity and some good advice go a long way towards creating spaces that wow. With these tips and your creativity, you can give a home a great new look that invites plenty of admiration!

Punctuality and Success

There is a worrying trend developing amongst young people today. I’ve seen it develop and increase over the years and I need to say something about it. There is a growing nonchalant attitude towards punctuality. I take this matter so seriously that I have actually fired employees on the spot for being late for meetings. Punctuality is the foundation upon which success is built. Successful people measure time in seconds and minutes. Losers measure time in hours, days, weeks and months. Punctuality is important to me because time is important to me. If you are 15 minutes late for an appointment you have effectively stolen 15 minutes from me. You have robbed me of the most valuable commodity in the universe. I would prefer it if you stole money from me, but not time. Time I can never get back.

Being late is being tardy. It reflects a number of things about you. It shows that you do not value time. Therefore you do not value success. You are not driven to be successful.

It shows that you have no respect. You do not see anything wrong with stealing time from another person. You can only steal from someone that you don’t respect. Respect is one of the most important cornerstones of success. If there is no respect then how can there be progress? How can there be synergy? How can there be mutual goals?

It shows that you do not respect yourself. If you respected yourself then you would take pride in your punctuality. You would take pride in being 5 minutes early at every appointment or meeting. You would take pride in the seriousness with which you view your own ambition.

Why is this so important? Because successful people only associate with successful people. If you have no ambition and you have no respect and you have no pride then you will never be allowed into the company of success. Successful people avoid tardiness like the plague. Successful people are never late.

Change your ways or be doomed to mediocrity forever. Success is something you DO, not something you GET.

7 Things We Learned at HBO’s Westworld TCA Panel

Arguably HBO’s most anticipated new drama in years, Westworld is as complex as it is ambitious. The sci-fi-western’s creators and stars gathered at the network’s TCA session to answer some of our biggest questions about the ten-episode series, based on the 1973 film written and directed by Michael Crichton. Westworld looks at the very dark repercussions of a futuristic theme park where “guests” can play gunslingers in an artificial Wild West populated by robot-like humans called “hosts.”[embedded content]

Civil Engineering news, technology, and opinions

10 Sep, 2008

Posted by: Skylar In: water

Today I stubled across a website for an organization called “charity:water”.  I’ve been quite impressed with the website itself.  The pictures and videos that have been collected from various projects are very well done.

charity: water is a non profit organization bringing clean, safe drinking water to people in developing nations. We give 100% of the money raised to direct project costs, funding sustainable clean water solutions in areas of greatest need. We also work to raise awareness of the water crisis through events, fundraising exhibitions and other public awareness campaigns.

Have a look for yourself.

Microsoft's Gates, Disney's Iger & Obama comment on passing of Steve Jobs

steve 1

Steve Jobs passed away, leaving us his brilliant ideas and legacy. He literally created his own chapter of the IT industry history. Following his death, a number of simple people have extended their sincere condolences and the most powerful and influential people in the world have commented on his passing, among them Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates, Disney President Bob Iger, and U.S. President Barack Obama.

Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates

"I’m truly saddened to learn of Steve Jobs’ death. Melinda and I extend our sincere condolences to his family and friends, and to everyone Steve has touched through his work…

The world rarely sees someone who has had the profound impact Steve has had, the effects of which will be felt for many generations to come. For those of us lucky enough to get to work with him, it’s been an insanely great honor. I will miss Steve immensely."

Disney President Bob Iger

"Steve Jobs was a great friend as well as a trusted advisor. His legacy will extend far beyond the products he created or the businesses he built. It will be the millions of people he inspired, the lives he changed, and the culture he defined…

With his passing the world has lost a rare original, Disney has lost a member of our family, and I have lost a great friend..."

U.S. President Barack Obama

Michelle and I are saddened to learn of the passing of Steve Jobs. Steve was among the greatest of American innovators - brave enough to think differently, bold enough to believe he could change the world, and talented enough to do it.

By building one of the planet's most successful companies from his garage, he exemplified the spirit of American ingenuity. By making computers personal and putting the internet in our pockets, he made the information revolution... And by turning his talents to storytelling, he has brought joy to millions of children and grownups alike. Steve was fond of saying that he lived every day like it was his last. Because he did, he transformed our lives, redefined entire industries, and achieved one of the rarest feats in human history: he changed the way each of us sees the world…

Google Chairman Eric Schmidt

"Steve Jobs is the most successful CEO in the U.S. of the last 25 years. He uniquely combined an artists touch and an engineers vision to build an extraordinary company… one of the greatest American leaders in history."

Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg

"Steve, thank you for being a mentor and a friend. Thanks for showing that what you build can change the world. I will miss you."

Former Yahoo CEO Carol Bartz

"It’s the ultimate sadness. First of all, it’s a young person who was revered, sometimes feared, but always revered. In a way, it’s kind of prophetic; everyone was hoping he could be on stage yesterday” during Apple’s iPhone announcement. "He was a very special person... He got to where he was because he had a vision and a purpose. It’s easy to try and please everyone, but he kept to his principles."

Arnold Schwarzenegger

"Steve lived the California Dream every day of his life and he changed the world and inspired all of us."

Smells like Teen Spirit

This month marks the twentieth anniversary of the passing of one of my all-time favourite singers, Kurt Cobain. I was an awkward, nerdy 16 year old teen with no clue about fashion labels who felt I didn't fit in with conventional, commercial trends, the pretty girls in school or the traditional expectations of the time. Then along came this Seattle band whose sounds I could relate to, whose style was unconventional, unorganised, yet acceptable. It was officially ok to be a moody teenager.

I didn't care about labels or fashion and was ignorant to style in general - until grunge and anti-fashion became the new fashion, thanks to Nirvana.  In the early 90's, Nirvana displaced Michael Jackson in the Billboard charts, a move that was inconceivable to most. 'We weren't on a mission, we just wanted to make a great record' says Dave Grohl on the Teen Spirit single. The iconic song, produced by Butch Vig, saw first time director Samuel Bayer hired due to his reel being so poor in quality that the band liked the authentic, punk and uncorporate feel to the look of what he would produce. The song and it's music video appealed to teens who didn't fit in. Kurt's message was for a specific group of tormented people and he wanted to reach them through music, making the Nevermind album somewhat of a perfect storm. On the Nevermind album, Grohl says that he 'hears a sense of purity and honesty that I haven't heard in a long time'.

That individuality and purity was lost for along time in fashion and business in general in Ireland. Although I have worked in corporate circles through the past decade, I have never succumbed to the uniformed, old fashioned approach of corporate dressing, which until very recently was without character, without personality and bland. I still have my Converse days at the office but if I'm meeting a client I dress appropriately. If I am presenting a show or attending a ball, I enjoy pulling out all the stops in the best evening wear I can find. I have given seminars on how corporate dressing has changed and in general, how first impressions do last, so I believe old fashions and old trends need to change to embrace the new generation who are filling our footsteps in the workplace. Nirvana changed the perception of perfection in the fashion industry in the 90's and it has lasted and grown stronger with time. Imperfection is perfection. And as the old saying goes, clothes do not make the man. I admire influential women in our industry such as Kelly Cuttrone, who has never fallen into the corporate or commercial fashion trap and although she is one of the most powerful women in Fashion PR in America, always dresses in plain black & flats. Here is a snapshot of how some of the world's biggest fashion houses have been influenced to this present day by the anti commercial message that made Nirvana and the grunge movement so iconic x
