Scratch Card Mania

Mobile and Apps are on a constant ever-changing environment. The mobile market is saturated with technological advancements of every kind. A recent stat indicates that there are over 2 million apps on the Google play store. App developers around the globe are on a constant rat race to bring their app to the hands of potentially every mobile user. We have witnessed different strategies to help them get to this place. From exciting offers, cashback, contests, lottery offers and many other creative ways, mobile apps have come a long way. However, very recently, we’re seeing this trend of scratch cards. How does it work, well basically the system generated cards to users that will bring some sort of benefit. This benefit could be anything from monetary or other offers related to the app itself.

This has picked up steam especially in the India market. The psychology of this feature works on the basis that users get a feeling of entitlement rather than receiving the actual reward itself. The drive to receive the reward pushes users to do a task the app developer deems fit. The scratch card system is in its early stage, however, there are early adopters. The few who have taken the leap have seen a drastic increase in both user acquisition and retention.

Here are the top 3 Mobile Apps in India that are riding the wave of implementing the Scratch Card System:

1. Google Pay (formerly Tez)

Google has simplified the way payments are done. In February 2018, the company announced it’s combining all of its different payment methods into one unified brand, called Google Pay. Google launched Tez as a payment service in India around a year ago — but now it looks like the company is giving Tez yet another big push. Part of that includes the rebranding of Tez to Google Pay, bringing it in line with Google’s other payment services. Beyond that, Google Pay now is now a fully-fledged payments app that gives users the ability to pay to vendors both online and offline in seconds. The sheer number of users is as good an indicator as any, and Google Pay has that covered after hitting 100 million downloads on the Google Play Store. It’s slightly unfair to say that it was Google’s branding that did all the heavy lifting. However, its user base significantly increased both in user acquisition and engagement by providing “Scratch Cards”. This eventually became a buzzword in the market. This has led other early adopters to implement and gain market-share.

2. AppBrowzer – All In One App

We are India’s premier all-in-one app. What does that mean exactly? Well, with AppBrowzer, users can get instant access to multiple services in one app. With prominent categories like shopping, social media, games and travel getting a prominent place in the Indian market. The team here had the idea of bringing it all together in one app. This immediately solves majorly two problems, one is the space storage in mobiles especially in India with budget phones. Second, for end users themselves, giving them access to everything in one place. This reduces the clutter of apps on smartphones. With over 2 million apps on the play store alone, AppBrowzer proves to solve this imbalance. We too introduced the scratch card feature early January 2019 and saw a 400% rise in installs and 200% retention. The ploy was to reward users for using the different sections of the app, in-turn increasing over acquisition and retention. Currently, we have hit over 1.5 million users on the play store and are on the course to hit 5 million by mid-year.

3. PhonePe

PhonePe is an Indian app that is striving to bring payments in one place. Headquartered in Bangalore, India. It was founded in December 2015. It provides an online payment system based on Unified Payments Interface (UPI). You can use PhonePe app to pay your postpaid and utility bills as well as recharge your prepaid mobile number, data card and DTH. Send or request money from loved ones by entering their number, name or VPA. Want to split the popcorn bill with your friends after watching a movie? With the PhonePe app, you can do that too! You can also check your bank account balance or scan QR codes to pay. They joined the bandwagon of introducing scratch cards as well to increase overall user acquisition. Through adverts of various kinds and social media, they have been able to capture the Indian audience by providing insightful offers and monetary benefits.

In Conclusion

The scratch card system is relatively new and is slowly picking up steam in order for mobile apps to increase overall user acquisition and retention. It’s hard to say if other applications will join the bandwagon simply because of the number of resources both technical and monetary needed to pull off this simple yet complex feature. However, it is interesting to see what users really want. With the scratch card feature, it is now a standard to provide benefits to users. This can be a dangerous playground especially if the standard has already been set. It’s time for developers to take a closer look if they are really up for the pressure to keep up with user demand. The other approach is to disrupt the market with something new, anyhow, it is an interesting time in the Mobile App space.

Security paper is a specific type of paper that uses security features to identify documents as original.  Security paper may also come with specail features that can prevent fraud by using tamper resistant options. These types of papers are used by the financial industries and are also used to identify documents such as checks, passports, licesnse, birth certificates, monetary currency and academic certificates.

Security paper has now become more advanced using a lot of different features such as hidden watermarks and pantographsto hinder duplication and tampering.  These features cannot be duplicated on copying equipment and informs bank tellers or notaries that the document presented to them is the original document.  Security paper is also acid free which allows it to be preserved for a longer amount of time than regular paper.

To validate an original watermarked document, simply rub the translucent watermarked area with a coin.  When this watermark is rubbed it will darken validating the authenticity of the document.

Often times  solvents, bleach, water or other chemicals are used to alter what is printed on a document, but with use of Security Paper spots will appear indicating that the document has been tampered with.  Another way of altering a document is to erase what has been printed.  When someone attempts to erase something that has been printed or written on the security paper it will destroy the paper fibers.

One of the options of security papers is a use of UV Fibers.  UV Fibers have been manufactured into the paper stock which can often times be seen with the naked eye and will brighten or glow when viewed under an ultraviolet lamp, Another option of security papers is UV dull paper,  When a paper stock is UV dull it means that it will not reflect ultraviolet light.  This means that the paper is suitable for ultraviolet inks, which can be used to show a hidden symbol, control number or other variable data, which can then be seen under ultraviolet lamps.

Choose which features are best suited for your needs and make security paper available for your customers to help them keep their information secure.

Things to Know About Continuous Computer Paper

When the state-of- the-art models of printers have been introduced to the market, everybody actually thought that line printers and dot matrix printers would end up being obsolete. They were wrong. The new printers are quite great when it comes churning out fancy and highly complicated prints, however when it comes to reliability and efficiency especially in printing out large numbers of forms  the old school printers are still the ones which are trusted by entrepreneurs.

The companies that make use of this type of printer also need a steady supply of continuous computer paper in their office at all times. Commonly, this type of paper is being used to print invoices, reports, and other important documents inside that are being used inside a company.  Business people actually prefer these machines since they are far more efficient and reliable especially in printing large numbers of document when compared to the new fancy printers which are being sold in the market right now.  Experiencing paper jams while printing on continuous computer paper using a dot matrix printer is very rare. On the other hand, the new models are known to have problems right away when they are used to print out large quantities of forms.

The main reason why it is virtually impossible to experience a paper jam when printing documents a dot matrix printer and tractor feed paper is because the perforations on the paper and the sprocket wheels inside the printer engage with each other in order to perfectly align the paper during  the printing process. And since it is continuous paper, the whole process will continue until the last sheet is printed, and having to perform that without any problems is actually a feat that only a very few printing machines can pull off.

Companies that make use of a line of dot matrix printers always make sure that they have enough continuous computer paper at their disposal at all times. This is due to the fact that this type of paper is being used by the companies to create some of the most important documents which are used in very important areas of their business such as invoice forms and vital reports.  Businesses, most especially the large ones print out hundreds to thousands of invoices and also a large number of reports on a daily basis.  This heavy task can actually be done by state-of-the-art printers to the risk of wearing it down and decreasing the efficiency of its performance very quickly. On the other hand, if you use a dot matrix printer to do the same thing, all you need to worry about is to change the ink ribbon and load a new batch of continuous computer paper once the previous one is already used up.

MVRDV and COBE win Danish Rock Museum competition in Roskilde

Nieuws —

The MVRDV and COBE scheme for the transformation of a former concrete factory into a multifunctional creative hub was chosen winner of an international design competition. The masterplan proposes an informal transformation of the 45.000m2 site into a dense neighborhood, incl. 8.000m2 existing factory halls, organized around a plaza for events. Three new volumes will be added on top of the halls: The 11.000m2 ROCKmagneten consists of The Danish Rock Museum, The Roskilde Festival Folkschool incl. student housing, and the headquarters of the famous Roskilde Rock Festival. They share program in a public creative communal house. The museum with a total of 3.000m2 will be completed as the first phase in 2014.

The site is located between Roskilde city centre and the Festival grounds of the annual rock festival. The brief demanded preservation halls of the former concrete factory Unicon and the informal character of the site which is currently used by artists, skaters and musicians. How to organise liberty, creativity and informality? The main idea is to create contrast by preserving the existing fabric as much as possible and positioning the new volumes above the existing halls. The masterplan defines areas for future buildings and temporary pavilions around a large event plaza connecting the halls and the ROCKmagneten with the main street. As a result Unicon becomes Musicon.

The ambition is to create a green machine; based on the smart combination of proven technologies the buildings will act in accordance with the environmental vision of Roskilde Festival. The annual rock festival is the biggest in Northern Europe and organised as a charity which donates its profit. Bands such as U2, R.E.M., Coldplay, Pet Shop Boys, Prince, Rammstein and Robbie Williams perform to an enthusiastic crowd from all over Europe.

MVRDV and COBE conceived the plan with Arup engineering, Wessberg engineers, LIW planning landscape architects and Transsolar for climate and energy.

2nd Prize PACIFIC2nd Prize PACIFIC2nd Prize PACIFIC2nd Prize PACIFIC2nd Prize PACIFIC2nd Prize PACIFIC2nd Prize PACIFIC2nd Prize PACIFIC2nd Prize PACIFIC

From the Architects:

Site was the main factor that influenced the concept of prisons volume. Ocean creates a constantly changing but at the same time homogeneous and unrestricted environment that determines the volume of prison to be simple, iconic and geometry equivalent to all directions.

Proposed prison consists of 3 main parts: bearing column, structural ring and regular rectangular modules hanging under it. Separate modules could be easily replaced by the others or new extensions could be added. This makes the whole prison system adjustable to always changing requirements. All vacant place under the structural ring is efficiently used by a dense grid of rods, using kinetic wave energy to provide building with electricity.Separate zones are clearly separated and laid out in different parts of the building. Prisoners awaiting trial and housing convicted prisoners are dislocated in opposite sides and separated by facilities used by them at different times. All service rooms are located around the central core of the volume containing lift shafts and connecting to the helicopter landing and boat loading areas. Administration, staff and control & security zones are isolated from the rest of the building.

It’s certainly a tantalizing prospect to think that we could gather usable energy from the natural forces at work on water's surface. Wave powers net potential is better than wind, solar, small hydro or biomass power. It contains roughly 1000 times the kinetic energy of wind, they are quieter and much less visually obtrusive. We chose BUOY system that use the rise and fall of ocean swells to drive hydraulic pumps. The electricity generators are mounted in the roof construction. Rods connecting buoys and generators play an important role in creating always wavering prison image, obscuring the massive central column and making the building disappear in a vibrant oceans environment.

City of Corunna

CORUNNA — The city is moving forward with an estimated $600,000 project to resurface a 1,700-foot portion of Parmenter Road to bring the road up to major street standards, according to City Manager Joe Sawyer.

The city council Monday unanimously approved an engineering proposal for the resurfacing work.

The project will be funded through a $375,000 Small Urban Grant from the state, in conjunction with money from the city’s major street fund and city improvement fund, Sawyer said.

“Parmenter road is not an all-weather road, so it’s not designed for industrial truck traffic,” Sawyer said. “This is what we would call a reconstruct, where we’re tearing up everything that’s there and putting new agregate, new base down, and then putting down new asphalt with some curb and gutter.”

The resurfacing along Parmenter Road will span approximately a quarter-mile, beginning at the intersection of Parmenter Road and East McNeil Street (M-71) and ending just beyond the railroad crossing on Parmenter, according to Sawyer.

The improvement will reach the northern end of a planned industrial park on the west side of Parmenter Road.

The preliminary engineering work approved Monday, which will include construction engineering services and bidding services, will be done by C2AE, an engineering firm out of Lansing.

Project Manager Brian Van Zee said he anticipates the project going out for bids in June 2020, with a construction timeline of approximately 10 weeks.

The decision to resurface the stretch of road comes as the city seeks developers for a 190-acre industrial park along Parmenter Road, which has been undeveloped for more than a decade.

The property, consisting of two adjacent parcels, nearly became an enthanol plant in 2008 before talks between the city and the company, E85 Inc., dissolved, according to City Assesor Merilee Lawson.

Over the course of the last decade, the city has invested more than $1 million into the site, adding water access, sewer lines and electricity.

That work recently attracted the attention of the state, as the Shiawassee Economic Development Partnership was awarded a $75,000 site readiness grant for the Parmenter Road site on Aug. 20, courtesy of the Michigan Economic Development Corporation.

Sawyer said the move to resurface this stretch of Parmenter comes not a moment too soon.

“It’s critically important because when these developments happen, they happen fast, so it’s so important to have as much ready as you can because we’re in competition with other sites that are ready to build,” Sawyer said. “We’re very close to where the first developments can happen on the west side of the road, the smaller 60-acre parcel, without any obstacles, because we’ll have the all-weather road to that location.”

5 Star Patient Review!

“I’m am very grateful that I took a chance on AZPTC. Dr. Nasser is the BEST! I’ve been having back pain for at least a decade, but the last two years have been extremely bad. My really bad days were a 10 out of 10. After meeting Dr. Nasser for the first time and having him look at my MRI, he immediately came up with a plan of attack to help me get my life back. Four weeks after having a Radio Frequency Ablation, I have ZERO PAIN. I mean ZERO. In fact, immediately after my procedure I was pain free. I’m back to working out and doing the activities that I enjoy doing and not having to worry about how my back is going to feel the next day. I would recommend AZPTC to anyone especially Dr. Nasser, but everyone in the office is really nice and professional. Many thanks to Dr. Nasser and the whole AZPTC team. For people out there who think there is no hope and your just going to have to live with your pain, please give AZPTC a chance."

Best Event Management Softwares for #eventprofs

Finding the best event management software for your requirements can be difficult. No solution will ever 100% satisfy your needs, but there will be some that clearly stand out above the others. However, proper investigation takes time and effort, but when done properly the benefits are well worth it.

Event management softwares and systems offer managers and administrators immense benefits:

  • Complete event management solutions consolidate often disparate systems. As a result, administrators  have one place to view information, plan events and manage their offerings.
  • Event management softwares will reduce the manual administration tasks. This increases efficiency and gives managers the opportunity to focus on value adding tasks.
  • Event management softwares can give event providers a competitive advantage. Features that provide reporting insights, marketing tools and improved registrant experience will grow registrations.

Here are a few tips for choosing an event management solution that will be worth the effort and price and a few providers worth considering to grow your business.

Choosing the best event management softwares & solutions

Out of box – make sure that the solution will be able to meet majority of your needs right away. Avoid workarounds and custom development for your must have items. If the provider can’t service majority of your needs immediately, you might not be the best fit.

Scalability – ensure the solution will be able to meet your needs as you continue to grow into the future. Future proof your investment by ensuring that the provider has the capacity and innovation to keep up with your growth rather than limit it.

Transparent pricing – make sure the solution has transparent pricing with which you can compare other providers. Hidden costs are out there, don’t be caught in a trap.

Know yourself – know your businesses processes and requirements before seriously engaging a vendor. Take these requirements and relay them to the vendor. For both parties this will make adoption easier as you can clearly identify whether you the solution will work.

Know the provider – check their reviews over marketplaces, app stores, social media and software review sites. Every vendor will have some negative remarks, but you should watch out for repeated comments on the same issues and poor implementation and support.

Some favorite event management solutions

    Jen Catron and Paul Outlaw

    Jen Catron and Paul Outlaw’s “an idea of god, or a toothbrush” offers a shaded view of the American dream: full of sugar, laced with poison, and topped with a cherry for your tasting pleasure. The art duo, lauded for their ostentatious performances and installations, have targeted the dark heart of the United States in eighteen mixed-media sculptures that feature, among other things, depictions of delectable cakes, gooey slices of pizza, and one enormous ice cream sundae.

    This vision of America—the land of Pizzagate, The Jim Bakker Show, and WikiLeaks—is defined by unchecked paranoia, doomsday

    Igor Hosnedl

    Painter Igor Hosnedl’s “The Opening of the Wells” takes its name from a 1955 chamber cantata by the composer Bohuslav Martinů. The composition celebrates the magical flourishing of spring throughout the Bohemian-Moravian Highlands of Czechia. Here, the Czech-born Hosnedl also embraces the season’s sensuousness and grand, mystical dimensions.

    In Emerald Twilight (all works 2018), one of five canvases on view, primavera has blossomed. A silhouette of a nude female figure reclines into a curtain of lush, leafy greenery. The scene is intoxicating—the picture’s rich absinthe hues seduce the psyche.

    Adriana Ramić

    A wall-to-wall landscape of fragrant herbs, green moss, and wildflowers fills the gallery with the sweet, aromatic perfume of a garden at morning. For her first solo exhibition, Adriana Ramić has built an ecosystem, titled Every time step that passes has a cost of one (all works 2017), specifically designed to entice ladybugs. In stark contrast to this natural scenery, hundreds of printed images—what the artist describes as flashcards—cascade down the gallery walls, depicting plants, mysterious diagrams, toxic-waste barrels, elephants, kitties, and balaclavas, among countless other things.

    Erwin Wurm

    Since the 1980s, Erwin Wurm’s “one-minute sculptures” have instigated artful absurdity within the gallery space by asking visitors to act out detailed, irrational tasks with a vast spectrum of common objects. In his latest exhibition, “Ethics demonstrated in geometrical order,” the artist employs midcentury modern furniture as elegant props for a new suite of sculptures that will make most modernist design aficionados squirm.

    Jeremy Couillard

    On a dusty, slate-colored couch reeking of bong water and dirty laundry, Jeremy Couillard invites visitors to experience a multidimensional journey into the great beyond with Alien Afterlife, 2016–17. The installation’s centerpiece is a video game designed and engineered by Couillard, unfurling as a quest for reincarnation amid kaleidoscopic landscapes and eccentric extraterrestrials. When the player is killed, the game abruptly ends with a stern and graphic “NO!” Moments later, you are returned to a limbo/home-base level called the Mother, sans penalty, likely because the character was dead to

    Aneta Grzeszykowska

    Skin, with all of its imperfections, wraps itself around the core of Aneta Grzeszykowska’s two-venue exhibition, “No/Body.” At 11R Gallery, a series of macabre photographs, “Selfie,” 2014–15, depicts bizarre lumps of stylized flesh—pigskin that’s been realistically modeled after (mostly female) body parts. Each sickening, deftly produced picture offers up a mongrel kind of beauty, straight from the cinematic annals of horror and science fiction. A hypnotic video, Bolimorfia, 2008–2010, shows the artist, nude, engaged in a surreal ballet, choreographed to a score by Maurice Ravel. Additional

Here, Deschenes discusses her current midcareer retrospective at the Institute of Contemporary Art, Boston, as well as her fascination with the histories and challenges of photography. The show is on view through October 18, 2016.

    Duane Michals thrives when pitted against an unfamiliar medium. And having waited over four decades to approach filmmaking, he does so now with the wide-eyed sincerity and innocence of a first-timer. A theater within the gallery looks like a seedy Times Square peep show from another era. A flashy electric arrow guides you toward an entrance with a red velvet curtain. Right outside is a small handwritten note, listing all twelve of the short videos made by the artist over the last two years. Michals describes these pieces as “mini-movies,” and they are as thoughtful and as cosmic as his photos,

    Carlos Reyes

    For “Feather Belly,” Carlos Reyes’s solo exhibition here, the peephole in the gallery’s door has been reversed, allowing visitors to peek into the space before entering. What you witness gazing through it is a fisheye perspective on an ominous scene: An enormous, spiky deathtrap occupies the entire entrance floor. In a corner, an orb, colored black and blue like a bruise, shines a beam of white light in the direction of the peephole, signaling the work’s menacing presence to any potential voyeur. An anxiety-inducing sight, to say the least.

    Jack Early

    In the center of a large star-spangled podium is a yellow phonograph, its title painted out in black letters across the front: “Jack Early’s Life Story in Just Under 20 Minutes!” The tune that plays from this 2014 work is a slapstick jazz number, spoken by the artist, about growing up gay during the Nixon administration in Raleigh, North Carolina. Early’s solo exhibition here is an autobiographical, Technicolor-drenched journey into a childhood that was a little bit sweet and a little bit saccharine, with a whole lot of sexy roiling just beneath.

From there, a biographical narrative unfurls, which finds Samaras revisiting his family photo album in a manner that recalls his early Polaroid manipulations of the 1960s and ’70s. In the room’s center stands Doorway, 1966 (constructed 2007), a monumental mirrored cube that reflects the gallery’s contents and greets visitors with their unavoidable reflections. Despite the

    On the evening of July 5, 2013, a freight train carrying two million gallons of crude oil escaped from its overnight resting station, and after traveling unguided for seven miles, it derailed at the town center of Lac-Mégantic in Quebec. Forty-seven locals, some sleeping comfortably, unaware in their homes, tragically lost their lives in what would become the deadliest non-passenger train derailment in Canadian history.

Katherine Weber

AFC Conservation Artist of the Month for March, 2020

Supporting conservation is a way of life for Katherine Weber. She and her husband own prairie and wetland property in a conservation stewardship program. Removing non-native and invasive species as well as establishing native trees and plants is a continuing goal. They are active members of The Land Conservancy of McHenry County and their annual seed gathering program. Her artwork has been featured in TLC's annual Art of the Land sale/exhibit with donated commissions and she regularly donates art for auction to benefit this group. In 2016 she was the top selling artist for TLC. Friends of Volo Bog is another membership she maintains and for which her paintings in their annual Bogs in Art exhibit/sale (images must depict bog plants) result in donated commissions. McHenry County Conservation District is another local association to which she has donated art for auction to benefit the group. Participation in programs offered by each of these groups and charitable conributions to them is ongoing.

"Nature is my inspiration" has long been true as to my watercolor paintings. Even the surface - Terraskin paper - is an ecologically friendly product as it is made from stone and not paper. My method is to pour a background and then look for a subject which is always nature. Raised in the country, the daughter of a veterinarian and granddaughter of a wildlife artist, their loves were early and continuing influences.

Katherine Weber's grandfather was a wildlife artist and probably gave her her first art supplies. Instruction began at the Art Institute of Chicago but then life took over and although she kept an art hand in through the years it was only after retirement that she began to pick up brushes again.

"Nature is always an inspiration. I am an outside person, avid gardener, walker and nature lover. The luck of living in a wooded area with a couple of ponds supplies limitless subjects." Katherine has been exploring art from an early age but only in the past few years has she been drawn to the watercolor challenge. "So much magic can happen with this medium. Expanding my repertoire of painting techniques is my current focus. It is a rare day when I do not pick up a paint brush!"

About the exhibition

During a visit with her family in Michigan, Jessica Halonen came across her father’s military draft records from the Vietnam War where he served as a helicopter mechanic. He never spoke about his experiences in the war, making the discovery as illuminating as it was opaque. Among the official documents from his time there she found: an envelope which contained combat patches; a Christmas card sent from Vietnam to his parents and siblings; and, of particular interest, a tattered, folded sheet of paper containing a sketch of a helicopter. The paper, folded to pocket-size, documented various mechanical parts and commonly used phrases, such as “I’m very busy today,” in English and Vietnamese. Despite its age, the words and diagrams remain remarkably vibrant. The text includes an intriguing combination of blue, black, and red inks, and it is clear multiple people contributed to its content.

Sorry I haven’t written was inspired by the ephemera in her father’s file, and the gallery space in which the works are viewed. The repeating rectangular forms of the pocket-sized note, the Christmas card, the free-standing window-esque wooden grid, as well as the panels on which they are painted, are in dialogue with the windows in the space.

The sculptural elements in the exhibition are made of varied materials including wood, metal-leaf, and blown glass. Halonen’s choice of materials is deliberate, calling to mind the gold embossing on her father’s holiday card and sandbags used for protection during conflict. Glass usually offers an unobstructed view; however, as seen in the sandbags and the surrounding gallery windows, glass can also distort and obscure, reminding us of the more slippery qualities of perspective, memory, and remembrance.

4. Open Postures

Both men and women send important signals to others simply by changing the orientation and postures of their bodies. A woman who has her body turned away from yours, particularly if it's at a 90-degree angle, is non-verbally blocking your attempts at getting to know her. Crossing her arms and leaning away from you are two other stances that indicate that a conversation will be a non-starter. Poses that suggest she's receptive to further communication with you are much more open. For example, she'll turn her body to face yours, her arms will be uncrossed and she'll lean in toward you.

Wrooom 2011: Valentino Rossi Finally in Corse Colors

Google+ Pinterest LinkedIn Tumblr

Ducati Corse’s joint launch with Ferrari kicked off today (not really, the official opener had to be postponed because of weather), and with it we get the first glimpses of Valentino Rossi in true Ducati colors, and not the yellow and black livery he had to wear during the Valencia test. Taking part in the Wrooom 2011 media event in the Dolomite Mountains, Rossi joins teammate Nicky Hayden in starting the new racing season with Ducati Corse.

Somewhere in between the skiing-filled days, and jacuzzi-soaked nights, a few things resembling a press conference will take place where Rossi will talk about his thoughts on the Desmosedici (scheduled for Tuesday), and Ducati will unveil the GP11 race bike (Q&A on the bike is scheduled for Wednesday), which may or may not feature a Big Bang motor (we think it will though).

For the week’s activities, Rossi and Hayden are joined by Ferrari’s Formula 1 drivers Fernando Alonso and Felipe Massa, who will be doing similar media maneuvers for Ferrari this week. The foursome is schedule to compete in a head-to-head skiing battle on Friday, but we don’t expect Rossi to actually take to skis this year with his recovering shoulder (good money is on Alonso as Massa has never seen snow before, and most things that pass for skiing in Kentucky involve a car, a rope, and a McDonald’s food tray).

Uncovering the Truth: 4 Common Misconceptions about Infertility

1. Misconception: Male Factor is not that common.

Fact: Male factor is a common cause of infertility and both partners should be tested. 35% of the time, the female partner will be diagnosed with an abnormality and 35% of cases will be determined to have a male factor. 20% of all cases will have both a male and female problem and approximately 10% of all infertility cases are unexplained after testing.

2. Misconception: IVF (In vitro fertilization) is the most common treatment that an infertility specialist will recommend.

Fact: Most reproductive endocrinology and infertility specialists are able to help couples with infertility to conceive with lower technology options. Approximately 50% of pregnancies at ACRM are achieved with treatments other than in vitro fertilization.

3. Misconception: A Reproductive Endocrinologist will just repeat all the testing my OBGYN has just completed.

Fact: In most cases, recent blood tests and x-rays will not need to be repeated.

4. Misconception: Medical insurance plans rarely cover any infertility testing or treatment.

Fact: Many of the insurance plans we see at ACRM cover testing for both the male and female partner to determine the cause of infertility. We also see between 30-40% of major plans currently offer coverage for the treatment of infertility, including inseminations and in vitro fertilization. Many plans are also now starting to offer coverage for fertility preservation.

Publisher's Summary

An Italian general is found dead in his apartment. Next to his body is a small card inscribed with a salamander in a bed of flames. Is it suicide or murder?

Dante Matucci, a captain in the Italian secret service, begins an investigation that leads him into a maze of political violence and intrigue. He meets the general’s former mistress, Lili Anders, and embarks on a dangerous affair with the beautiful onetime spy. Soon he is drawn into the net of the great Salamander himself, millionaire industrialist Bruno Manzini, who is pitting his wits against the elaborate machinery threatening Italy’s government.

In a game of high stakes, how much is Matucci prepared to pay to survive?

Great Story, Wierd Choice of Narrator

I have read this book in print and have always liked it. I don't know if the depiction of Italian politics and national (or lack thereof) identity is accurate now, or even when written. At least it captures the spirit of the Italians. The story line is great. I just have to question the choice of an Aussie with a pronounced accent is the right choice to make us believe he is Italian. On the other hand, the stereotypical Italian accent would be off putting. Maybe an accent like the one the actor Cesare Danova had would work. In any case, the Aussie accent didn't.

Ambient ACN-LS timecode slate with black & white clapsticks, with integrated ACN transceiver, incl. ACN-LSB carrying bag

€1,403.60 incl. VAT
€1,160.00 excl. VAT

The ACN-LS timecode slate is a highly accurate smart-slate system featuring a unique product design and functionality.

The completely revised LED timecode display features double the brightness at less than half of the power consumption of its predecessor. This allowed Ambient to reduce the batteries to only 4x AA cells while still achieving prolonged battery life. Additionally, Ambient equipped the new slate with light and motion sensors. Thus, the brightness can adjust automatically to the local light conditions, and the timecode display flips when the slate is turned upside down. The easy removable handle allows for perfect one-handed operation.

Thanks to the built-in supercapacitor, the ACN-LS is able to hold the highly accurate timecode for more than 10 minutes after loss of power. Changing batteries no longer automatically means re-jaming the slate.

  • • Highly accurate time code generator
  • • Supports all used frame rates
  • • Adjustable TC offset
  • • Generator buffered time code transceiver
  • • Full ACN support
  • • Clap time transmission via ACN
  • • Drift of less than 1 frame a day (~0,1ppm, 0,0ppm within ACN)
  • • OLED Display for configuration
  • • Extremly bright LED TC display
  • • Light sensor for automatic brightness adjustment
  • • Tilt sensor for flipping tc display with end slates
  • • Backup Supercap holds tc for more than 10min after power loss

The small town of Yangshuo, set amidst vertical limestone pinnacles, has a relaxed charm.

Resting beside the Li River, it is ideally placed to enable visitors to explore the strikingly beautiful countryside of Guangxi Province. The town itself is very laid back and the mix of small western-style cafes - with good, inexpensive local food - offers a relaxing respite.

Exploring Yangshuo

Many visitors prefer to explore Yangshuo and its scenic beauty by bike, which can be hired cheaply on a daily basis. A walk around the town is also enjoyable.

West Street has various tourist shops with good quality items at reasonable prices. It is possible to get good quality cotton garments made up quickly at little cost. When buying souvenirs you would be advised to wait until late afternoon or early evening, after the main tourist period, when cheaper prices are on offer.

It is advisable to bargain with shop keepers and stallholders.

Las Terrazas is a small rural community set in the heart of a 25,000 hectare UNESCO biosphere reserve in the Sierra del Rosario.

Regeneration Project

Las Terrazas, CubaThe area was badly affected by deforestation so an extensive regeneration project was started in 1968 and terraces were laid out for re-planting, giving Las Terrazas its name.

Today the inhabitants work within the reserve, often involved in eco-tourism and benefit from some of the best living standards in the country.

This region is now covered in thick tropical vegetation, deciduous pine and tall royal palms with their distinctive white trunks providing a lovely contrast against the rolling blanket of green.

The cooler climate and lovely scenery make Las Terrazas a popular place for walking and it is also excellent for bird watching.

Batteries: will frequency response markets be oversupplied leading to a price crash? What might be the effect of National Grid’s redesign of ancillary service markets? When will other business models such as arbitrage be investable?

Gas peakers and DSR: how might the competition between flexible technologies play out? Will gas peakers continue to be developed post triad reform, and how will debt financing work? Will DSR live up to its potential in the GB market, and is this a threat to batteries?

The future of the energy system: how different could the future energy system look given falling costs of renewables, batteries, EVs and other new technologies? Will the wholesale market as we know it continue to exist or will radically new business models and players emerge?

Australian Art

30/Oct/2004 - 23/Jan/2005

VENUE: Araluen Galleries

Ancient Rhythms is an exhibition of drawings in black and white, all made on location by Julie Taylor, using charcoal on paper.

A selection of large and small works reveal melodies and rhythms found amongst the trees and ranges of Central Australia. Ancient patterns of erosion on steep slopes and the twists and curves of corkwood tree bark are featured. The exhibition includes a series of drawings devoted to a rare stand of corkwood trees beside the Hugh River, near Alice. Once magnificent, they were tragically destroyed by fire several years ago. Unlike many other native plants, regrowth is extremely slow. Charcoal for these drawings has been donated by the charred trees themselves.

There are no opinions yet. Be the first to add your wisdom!

Secondary Poisoning

Rats and mice can pose a serious health risk to humans, and they can also be incredibly destructive.  Unfortunately, they can grow in numbers rapidly and a few rodents can quickly become a full-blown infestation.  It’s no surprise people want to get rid of them as quickly as possible and turn to rodenticides as a solution.  Sadly, rodenticides can often kill more than just rats and mice by causing secondary poisoning.

Secondary poisoning occurs when an animal containing traces of poison is consumed by another. The primary poisoned animal transfers the poison to the consuming animal — most commonly through the liver. This is often exemplified when a wild or domestic animal eats a rat or mouse that has died from rat poison (rodenticides).

Common rodenticides include:

  • ACR (Anticoagulant Rodenticides)
  • Cholecalciferol (Vitamin D3)
  • Bromethalin
  • Phosphides

secondary poisoning

 Secondary poisoning can have adverse effects on ecological systems. While the immediate threat to your common cat or dog is obvious, we have seen an increase in deaths in wild animals over recent years. With urban sprawl increasing the displacement of rodents, the use of rodenticides has become a more common method to dispose of pests.

Birds of prey such as owls, hawks, eagles and other raptors are often casualties of rodenticides.  A study in 2018 looked at two owl species in California.   It showed 70% of northern spotted owls and 40% of barred owls were exposed to anticoagulant rodenticides.  The northern spotted owl is currently listed on the Endangered Species Act.  These rodenticides can kill all rodents, including some that may not be targeted — such as chipmunks and all species of squirrels.

Another study has shown hawks prefer prairie dogs poisoned by rodenticides because the poisoned animals are slower and less alert — making them easier to catch.  When the livers of fishers were tested, an astonishing 85% were shown to have rodenticide exposure.

Larger animals like mountain lions, bears, bobcats, raccoons, coyotes and foxes have even higher exposure.  Testing from 2015-2016 by WildCare shows rodenticide exposure in these animals is as high as 86%.  Snakes and other reptiles can also be affected when feeding on rodents.  There are also known cases of tertiary poisoning.  Tertiary poisoning can happen when a larger animal like a mountain lion eats a coyote or other mammal that has fed on a poisoned rodent.

California Department of Fish & Wildlife states, “The best way to control rodents and protect wildlife and pets is to use non-chemical means of rodent control.”  In California alone, rodenticides have injured or killed, “hundreds or thousands of wild animals and pets.”

 In 2018, legislation to ban some rodenticides passed the Assembly Environmental Safety and Toxic Materials Committee. The bill would ban first and second generation anticoagulant rodenticides (FGARs and SGARs).  If the bill passes, it would make California the first state to ban these poisons.

These types of anticoagulant rodenticides prevent the rodent’s blood from clotting by blocking the enzyme in the liver that creates vitamin K.  The second-generation rodenticides are more likely to stay in the rodent’s tissue for a longer period of time because of their higher concentration, increasing the risk of poisoning to other animals feeding on them.

Some examples of second-generation anticoagulant rodenticides are brodifacoum, flocoumafen and difenacoum.  These rodenticides caused 12 of d-Con’s products to be cancelled as of 2005 because, “8 of the 12 products contain second-generation anticoagulants pesticides that pose unacceptable risks to non-target wildlife.”

There are also non-anticoagulant toxins such as Bromethalin. Bromethalin is a neurotoxin causing brain swelling and destruction of the nervous system.   Other non-anticoagulants rodenticides include cholecalciferol and zinc phosphide.  These toxins all work in different ways, but are all harmful to wildlife.

All of the rodenticides mentioned above cause a slow, painful death for the rodent, and possible deadly consequences for any animal feeding on them.   All too often, animals are found suffering and there is nothing that can be done to save them.  The numbers of dead owls and raptors are increasing as people continue to use rodenticides to battle rodents.

It is a typical reaction to want to eliminate a rat or mouse infestation with the use of rat poisons, but the use of rodenticides reminds us that we are all linked to a larger ecosystem — that can be impacted beyond your immediate scope. Think about the impact on animals, domesticated pets, and overall what it means to introduce foreign toxins into your community.

The avoidance of toxins is a fundamental pillar of the Goodnature philosophy. Our trap is designed as an alternative to conventional rodenticides that can pose a threat to pets, children, and other wildlife.

If you are concerned that your dog, cat, or even a child has been exposed to rat poison, don’t hesitate to call the American Association of Poison Control Centers at 1-800-222-1222 or text poison to 797979. They offer free, confidential advice that can help you act quickly in a crisis.
