Invoice processing for DPD with ISPnext
Smooth implementation of and positive practical experiences with digital invoice processing
DPD Finance to Manage Team Leader Fred van de Wiel explains, “With regard to integration, the reason for us to choose ISPnext was the fact that they were the only ones to have a standard JD Edwards interface. That made it easy for us to choose. Moreover, we decided to simultaneously implement both digital invoicing and JD Edwards. This approach worked out well for us. During the first weeks of the implementation, we made use of the services of a dedicated support desk that was able to provide almost realtime answers and solutions. We have found this to be an extremely positive experience. This enabled us to immediately find a solution for questions our users had during the start-up phase.”
Invoices immediately available for payment
“I would also like to add that the initial explanation to the entire team who were going to work with ISP-Invoice was excellent. Creating a test environment for the implementation and using it to explain the program, made accepting the change easier for the staff. The consultants provided a clear explanation and helped us work out solutions. One of the advantages from practical experience we consider to be positive is the immediate processing of linked invoices with accounts payable – the invoices are immediately available for payment. In short, the project progressed in accordance with our expectations and we are very satisfied about the practical experiences with digital invoice processing in ISP-Invoice!” Van de Wiel concludes.
As a leading service provider, DPD delivers standard and express parcels on behalf of thousands of satisfied customers each and every day. They are experts in their own national market, and form part of the international DPDgroup. Communication with clients, prospective employees and journalists is a priority at DPD. The company is also fully aware of its social responsibilities to its employees and the environment.

title: Jaime hoefer attends unl media academy

text:
Jaime Hoefer of Elgin, a student at Elgin High School, was among 21 high school students from Nebraska and Illinois who participated in the second annual UNL Media Academy June 12-15. The academy was hosted by the University of Nebraska-Lincoln’s College of Journalim and Mass Communications. Trina Creighton, professor of broadcasting, and Kelli Britten, advertising and public relations lecturer, led the students in sessions on journalism, broadcasting, and advertising and public relations.
The academy aimed to provide the students with opportunities and experiences that would give them a sense of what it’s like to have a career in media. “The students really enjoyed their experience at the college and on campus,” Britten said. “We had a packed schedule to expose them to all three of our majors and businesses across Lincoln that hire students with the skills they learn at the CoJMC. If these students are any indication, the future is bright for the next generation of media professionals.”
The students toured the Husker Athletic Department, State Capitol and local advertising agencies. They also had the opportunity to observe a KLKN newscast from inside the studio.
The students completed photojournalism projects, wrote blog posts, anchored broadcasts and honed their social media skills as part of the learning sessions.
Attendees stayed on campus in Neihardt Hall along with their team leaders, six College of Journalism and Mass Communications students and recent graduates who served as mentors. They also participated in a scavenger hunt around campus and downtown Lincoln and did team-building activities.
“It was such a great time to be able to share my passion for media with these students who were eager to learn more about the industry and the college itself,” said Hayley Archer, team leader. “Even in just a few days, we got to see them grow as aspiring journalists, which was really cool.”

At Christmas FEBA sent money for a special feast for the orphanage in Goma which is run by a friend of Maman Monique. For once, all they could eat! Within weeks the city was overrun by fighting. Sadly, as we report this now, that feast is a distant memory; they are surviving on practically nothing. Please pray for all the people of Goma and the region, especially the orphans.
FEBA Farm’s 1st New Harvest!
THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! Celebrate with us the joy of the harvest! FEBA’s farm has done so well: corn, tomatoes, Congo eggplant, and cassava greens. (Cassava has also been planted but it requires a year to come to maturity.)
In August-September FEBA cleared and planted 8 hectares (about 19+ acres). As they harvest these fields they are preparing 3 more hectares for the next planting season when the rains come in March, to plant more corn, beans, soy, and cassava.
Hunger has been the daily reality since 2023 when pre-electoral violence destroyed all the farms in this region. Now at last there is a turning point and dawning hope for the food insecure.
The Situation in Congo
As you have probably heard, there is an upsurge in violence in northeastern Congo. The M23 rebels, who are allied with Rwanda, have been fighting since 2022 to take over the province of North Kivu to exploit its minerals; in the process they have driven refugees to camp around Goma. M23 and Rwandan soldiers have now taken Goma, with a great deal of killing and raping; the rebels have also looted, including the food stockpiled in Goma by the World Food Program. The internet is out, there is no electricity or running water. During the worst of it, people hid in their homes, mostly without food or water. The rebels are now forcing the people to clear the streets, carrying water from the lake to wash away the blood and gore.
Maman Monique is in intermittent contact through a local phone network with two friends in Goma. So far there are no known casualties or injuries among the orphans or people we know, but they are close to starving and there has been significant loss of property at the Community Charity School, where the solar panels and photocopier were stolen. Maman Monique sent money to feed the orphans (via local phone money transfer) and Innocent Nunda (Uvira) will send to CCS as soon as possible. Any assistance to enable our partners to do more will be welcome

On May 17-19, an eclectic lineup of DJs will usher in the inaugural Dusk Camp -- an intimate EDM festival set to take place on the La Jolla Indian Campground (located in Pauma Valley off Highway 76) in conjunction with the upcoming weekend's full moon.
Produced and helmed by long-time LA event promoters and DJs Heidi Lawden, Jeniluv and Masha, the off-the-grid, 21-and-up event boasts one main stage that'll host a plethora of genre-expanding underground artists including DJ Harvey, DJ Nobu, Jennifer Cardini, Elena Colombi, Massimiliano Pagliara, Solar, Peaking Lights, Magic Touch, Lovefingers, Bears in Space and Analog Soul, among many others.
The primary ideology behind Dusk Camp? To produce an immersive, music-first, inclusive festival that shines a spotlight on both LA-based acts and underrepresented communities of the DJ world, including female, gender-fluid and gay artists.
"We felt our world wasn’t being catered to," Lawden explained to MixMag's Lily Moayeri in a recent interview. "There’s room for what we want. A lot of us aren't getting booked on the big festivals. A lot of us aren’t getting booked on smaller festivals. I’ve traveled around enough to know we have world-class DJs here that are being overlooked, forgotten and ignored. There is a lot of camaraderie and support amongst us locals. We’re just not making enough noise. And we need this festival."
There's no headliner for Dusk Camp -- all DJs are listed equally on the festival's poster/lineup and they'll all be performing on the same stage. It follows the communal vibe of the campout, where attendees and performers alike can come together to coexist in an idyllic, outdoors setting that features music nearly 24 hours a day.
Festival-goers are allowed to bring their own food and drink, including alcohol. Just know that Dusk Camp is not a Coachella-esque affair set up to cater to "influencers" and celebrities -- there are no VIP packages, beer gardens or even power available; it is a back-to-basics camping experience.
Differing reports list capacity of the fest between 800 and 1,300 persons. Single-day tickets are available for $80 each, while two-day passes are $160 each and three-day passes are $225 each. Group passes (four three-day tickets) can be had for $700, as well as car camping and RV camping on-site passes for $125 and $250 each. There are fees for each ticket/pass purchase.

title: Era hosts company permit holders inaugural forum

text:
The Electricity Regulatory Authority on 14th February 2020 hosted a forum for 100 licensed Installation Permit companies. The forum was opened by the Minister of Energy and Mineral Development – Honorable Mary Goretti Kitutu.
The forum was the first engagement between the ERA and all licensed electrical installations companies involved in power line construction across the country in one gathering. The purpose of the forum was to sensitize Installations Permits holders about the upcoming and revised regulations governing their work. At the same forum, the Uganda National Bureau of Standards (UNBS) also introduced to the contractors the new standards and guidelines governing electricity network poles.
The forum provided a platform for ERA and Company Permit Holders to deliberate on issues that positively contribute toward achieving the Government of Uganda’s aspiration of Accelerating Access to clean, Reliable and Affordable Energy sources.
The Minister of Energy and Mineral Development, Hon. Mary Goretti Kitutu, who officiated at the Forum expressed her support toward the initiatives put in place by the Uganda Government and ERA concerning the development of the Electricity Sector.
The Minister mentioned initiatives including the Electricity Connection Policy, which targets to increase new connections from 70,000 to 300,000 per year, as well as electricity demand increment by 500 MW by 2027, and construction of the required transmission infrastructure to effectively evacuate the power from the different generation plants spread across the country.
The Minister however urged Company Permit Holders to work with Government to realize the aspirations of the electricity Sector by operating within the requirements of the Laws and Regulations, use of quality materials of standards approved by the relevant Authorities and carryout professional installations using skilled personnel.
In her remarks, the Chief Executive Officer of the Electricity Regulatory Authority, Eng. Ziria Tibalwa Waako, appreciated the work done Company Permit Holders urging them to continue with the good work by exhibiting professionalism in all their activities and also be responsible for the outputs of their work. The CEO further urged Company Permit Holders to guarantee value for money in all their works and ensure that the infrastructure put in place is safe and can last for generations.

title: Facetime bug fix removes the add person feature for one to one calls

text:
Learn all about the latest updates, changes, and fixes to FaceTime due to the Group call security bug fix.
A serious FaceTime Group Call bug was discovered that lets you instantly access audio from the microphone and potentially the video of the person you called on FaceTime. The bug was fixed, but new issues have arisen in its place.
Update: February 18, 2019: FaceTime bug fix removes the ‘Add Person’ feature for one-to-one calls
Apple pushed out iOS 12.1.4 recently to fix the security bug with Group FaceTime. The fix, it appears, is in part, to keep the "Add Person" feature disabled for FaceTime calls that start out as one-to-one calls. As discovered by MacRumors forum members, when starting a FaceTime call with a single person, you can’t add a person to that call.
Though some FaceTime users also reported not being able to add a second person, even during a call that started as a Group call, I was able to successfully start a Group call with two others, and add a fourth person.
It’s important to note that you can’t Group FaceTime with anyone not running iOS 12.1.4. If your friends are still running an older version of iOS, or if they’re in the beta program (which hasn’t pushed out a Group FaceTime bug fix yet), their names will be grayed out and you won’t be able to start or add them to a Group FaceTime call.
According to a FaceTime user that contacted Apple Support, the Add Person bug is a known issue, with no information about whether or when it will return.
The following is the original article regarding the issue.
February 1, 2019: Apple has sent me a new statement:
"We have fixed the Group FaceTime security bug on Apple’s servers and we will issue a software update to re-enable the feature for users next week. We thank the Thompson family for reporting the bug. We sincerely apologize to our customers who were affected and all who were concerned about this security issue. We appreciate everyone’s patience as we complete this process.
We want to assure our customers that as soon as our engineering team became aware of the details necessary to reproduce the bug, they quickly disabled Group FaceTime and began work on the fix. We are committed to improving the process by which we receive and escalate these reports, in order to get them to the right people as fast as possible. We take the security of our products extremely seriously and we are committed to continuing to earn the trust Apple customers place in us."
Here’s the previous statement Apple provided:
"We’re aware of this issue and we have identified a fix that will be released in a software update later this week."
UPDATE: Apple has turned off the Group FaceTime service, effectively killing the bug and any potential exploit, until a proper fix is pushed out.
UPDATE: Apple has taken down FaceTime Group Calls to prevent anyone from abusing the bug before the fix is pushed out.
News of the audio bug first started making the rounds on social.
— Benji Mobb™ (@BmManski) January 28, 2019
And, thanks to Continuity, if you have multiple devices logged into FaceTime and running iOS 12 or macOS Mojave, the chaos is exponential — all the devices will ring and can potentially be used to access the respective device mics.
After years of relative inactivity, with iOS 12, Apple greatly enhanced and expanded FaceTime. In addition to Memoji and AR stickers, Apple added FaceTime Group Calls, which finally allowed for multi-user coherence calling on FaceTime.
It appears to be that new conference calling system that’s allowing the remote mic and potential camera exploit to function.
As always, bugs happen, so all we can do is wait and see how well and quickly Apple fixes it. Which, according to the statement, should be very soon.

title: New health centre to speed up heart disease and cancer diagnoses

text:
A new Community Diagnostic Centre (CDC) has opened in Denton, with NHS bosses saying diagnosis and treatment for cancer and heart disease “is set to get quicker”.
Although the centre opened to patients last month, it was officially unveiled on Wednesday October 2 by the Minister for Public Health and Prevention – and local MP – Andrew Gwynne.
“Already over 2,000 people have made use of the facilities here,” he said after the ceremony. “There’s currently capacity for around 25,000 appointments a year, but there’s already talk about putting even more diagnostic and screening services in here which could facilitate a doubling of available appointments to 50,000 a year.
“The CDC currently has Bone Density scanners, a CT Scanner, an MRI Scanner, Ultrasound scanners, Diabetes Eye Screening, and several general consultation rooms.
“I know the work done in this new centre will ensure we tackle real health inequalities in the area, and ensure we identify conditions sooner and get people the treatment they need more quickly to prevent further ill health.”
As well as Tameside and Glossop NHS, the CDC is run in conjunction with the Stockport NHS Foundation Trust and InHealth, a private diagnostics company.
Although patients will need a referral to use the facility, it means they could avoid going to hospital for tests.
Its management expect a capacity of 36,000 appointments by the end of its fifth year, growing to 50,000 after a decade.
“The recent opening of the Community Diagnostic Centre marks a significant step forward in our joint efforts to bring down waiting lists and provide more diagnostic capacity to the population we serve,” said Jonathan O’Brien, Chief Operating Officer at Tameside and Glossop NHS Integrated Care NHS Foundation Trust.
“Getting people diagnosed and treated quicker is absolutely crucial to a patient’s long term health outcomes, and this centre is pivotal in our quest to ensuring our patients live longer, happier and healthier lives.
“Health care is most effective when delivered in the heart of the community, and there is no better location than Crown Point.”

Technique co-founder Michael Saylor hinted at an impending Bitcoin (BTC) buy by Technique and stated that greater than 13,000 establishments now have direct publicity to the corporate.
The corporate’s most recent acquisition of 3,459 BTC, valued at over $285 million on the time of buy, on April 14, introduced Technique’s whole holdings to 531,644 BTC, valued at over $44.9 billion.
Saylor adopted up on the BTC chart, which he usually posts on Sundays to sign an imminent BTC acquisition, with a breakdown of investor publicity to the corporate. The chief wrote in an April 20 X post:
“Based mostly on public information as of Q1 2025, over 13,000 establishments and 814,000 retail accounts maintain MSTR straight. An estimated 55 million beneficiaries have oblique publicity by ETFs, mutual funds, pensions, and insurance coverage portfolios.”
Technique’s rising reputation amongst retail and institutional buyers is important because of the firm siphoning capital from conventional monetary markets and into Bitcoin. Elevated capital flows translate into the corporate accumulating and holding extra BTC, slowly growing the worth of the supply-capped digital asset.
Michael Saylor’s inventory market-to-BTC pipeline
Technique points company debt and fairness to finance its Bitcoin acquisitions, giving holders oblique publicity to BTC and feeding capital from conventional monetary markets into the Bitcoin market.
In December 2024, Strategy was added to the Nasdaq 100, a weighted inventory market index that tracks the 100 largest firms by market capitalization on the Nasdaq alternate.
The inclusion of Technique within the Nasdaq 100 will attract much more capital to BTC from passive buyers holding the tech-focused index of their portfolios.
In February 2025, Bitcoin analyst Julian Fahrer reported that 12 US states had exposure to Strategy, together with California, Florida, Wisconsin, North Carolina, Arizona, Colorado, Illinois, Louisiana, Maryland, New Jersey, Texas, and Utah.
Bloomberg exchange-traded fund (ETF) analyst Eric Balchunas not too long ago stated that inflows from Bitcoin ETFs and institutional inflows from firms like Technique have shored up the Bitcoin market towards dumping by short-term speculators.
The analyst added that Bitcoin ETFs recorded roughly $2.4 billion in capital flows year-to-date, serving to to cushion the worth of the digital asset.

title: Laying lawn one weekend

text:
A new lawn is a thing of beauty that adds finesse and finish to the exterior of your home. Put aside one weekend to turn your yard into a rolling field of green this spring. If laid properly, your lawn should resemble a lush green carpet that you and your family can enjoy year after year. If you want all the benefits of a great looking new lawn, but don’t want to do it yourself, then just call Fox Mowing & Gardening 1800 369 669.
What you’ll need: A shovel, gardening gloves and a skip
How to: If you’re replacing an old lawn, it needs to be removed using a shovel. This is the hardest part of the job. Dig up the old grass and excavate down to a depth of about 100–150 millimetres. It’s a good idea to hire a skip to dispose of the removed grass and soil.
What you’ll need: Knee pads, gardening gloves and weed killer
How to: All weeds must be removed from the area, otherwise they will sprout up through your new grass. This is a matter of getting down on your hands and knees and pulling out any weeds by the roots. An easier way is to spray the area with a weed killer containing glyphosate (such as Roundup). However, you have to leave the area alone for two weeks before continuing to lay your lawn.
What you’ll need: Sand, a shovel and a rake
How to: Lay down sandy soil or washed river sand to make a solid bed with good drainage. The sand should be at least 50 millimetres thick. Sand can be ordered by the cubic metre; to figure out how much you need, simply multiply the size of your lawn by the depth of the sand. If your lawn area is 6 x 5 metres and you need sand to a depth of 100 millimetres, then 6 x 5 x 1 = 3 cubic metres of sand. Use a shovel and rake to spread out the sand evenly.
What you’ll need: A soil leveller
How to: This is a very important step. Getting the sand nice and level will translate into a flat, even lawn. A soil leveller can be bought or hired from most large hardware stores. Use it to make the sand smooth, even and level.
What you’ll need: Fertiliser, a hose and a rake
How to: Evenly spread out organic fertiliser so the whole area is covered. Start in a far corner and use a rake to spread it evenly and smoothly. This will encourage root growth and help keep the lawn healthy. Give the entire area a light watering to wet down the soil.
What you’ll need: Rolls of turf and shears
How to: This is the fun part. Turf comes in rolls approximately 200 x 50 centimetres. The sooner it’s unrolled and positioned, the better. Start by laying the turf against paths or any hard edges. As you position each roll, butt it up hard against the adjoining roll. This will stop the joins from showing and encourage the rolls to grow together. Use a set of shears to trim the turf so it fits around any trees, pavers or steps.
What you’ll need: A hose and a sprinkler
How to: The turf should be watered as soon as you finish laying it. Don’t be stingy – it’s almost impossible to over-water. A good soaking will help bed down the rolls and get the fertiliser working. The lawn will need to be watered every day for the next 7-14 days, so it’s probably worthwhile buying a sprinkler.
What you’ll need: A lawn roller (40-50 kilograms)
How to: Roll with a lawn roller to ensure all the grass roots are in contact with the soil. It will also help even out any minor bumps or rises.

title: Polisse tackling the child abuse perverts

text:
For the most part of human existence, our planet was a carnalcopia.
You could screw any one without worrying about consequences.
Father, mother, girl, boy, son, daughter, brother, sister, friend, foe, dog, cat, goat, uncle, aunt, buffalo (some Tamils still do it), cousin, grandma, niece, grandpa, neighbor etc, no problemo.
Anybody was fair game.
Game, as in hunting.
Times have Changed
But as man became ‘civilized’ and mores started changing, sexual impulses were tempered by law and, thankfully, no longer open to unrestrained lunges.
Despite laws banning several forms of sex, there are some who still prefer to play on the dark side.
Polisse is a lovely, well-made French film about one such dark side – sexual and criminal abuse of young children by parents.
Although set within the context of the working of the Child Protection Unit in Paris, the award-winning 2011 film by French actress and director Maïwenn Le Besco is not a dry documentary.
Most definitely not.
Mothers Must Not Blow their Sons
There’s plenty of drama to chew on in Polisse.
The high drama inside the Child Protection Unit office in dealing with a series of sex offenders is matched lock-step by the tumult in the day-to-day lives of the unit’s staff.
Mothers talk matter of factly to the Child Protection Unit officers about giving their sons hand-jobs and blowjobs to calm them and fathers discuss stroking their daughters twats for pleasure.
Some offenders even taunt the Police Officers and boast they are untouchable by the law thanks to their influential friends in high places.
At the same time, the personal lives of the unit’s officers are in disarray, impinged in one way or the other by their work dealing with the dirty scumbags, the carnalvore dregs of society.
Divorces, separations and other issues thwart family happiness.
For jaded film-watchers tired of the same-old, same-old drivel, Polisse is a refreshing breath of fresh air.
A complex, riveting and high-intensity film, Polisse is a must-see for lovers of good cinema.
Polisse features fine acting by the divinely beautiful Karin Viard, the rugged Joeystarr and others.
Director Maïwenn plays the role of a photographer Melissa Zaie hired to document the working of the unit for a magazine story.
I found the camaraderie among the members of the Child Protection Unit a bit too much. But that’s a small complaint.
Polisse is available on DVD at Netflix.
Since Polisse is a remarkable, award-winning film (Jury Award at 2011 Cannes Film Festival), I have not the least doubt that the Indian savages will completely eschew this film. Hey, I can see the desi chimps are already drooling over Khiladi 786 and Dabbang 2. 🙁

title: Carpal tunnel syndrome

text:
Carpal tunnel syndrome is a condition of the hand and arm which causes tingling, numbness and other symptoms to develop in these regions. Carpal tunnel syndrome affects roughly 1 out of every 20 people in the United States. While both men and women are affected by this condition, females are three times as likely as men to develop carpal tunnel syndrome. This may be due to the size of the carpal tunnel itself which can be smaller in women than men.
The carpal tunnel is a narrow passageway found on the bottom side of the wrist. This tunnel provides protection for the median nerve, along with the 9 tendons that bend the fingers. The median nerve controls movement and sensation in the first three fingers and thumb. If this nerve becomes pinched or compressed, the result is tingling, numbness, pain or weakness in the hand – referred to as carpal tunnel syndrome.
Causes of Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
Carpal tunnel syndrome develops as a result of anything that compresses, crowds or irritates the median nerve located in the carpal tunnel space. Oddly enough, many patients do not know the cause of their carpal tunnel syndrome. Unlike other conditions affecting the cartilage, muscles, and tendons, carpal tunnel syndrome is rarely identified because of one single event or activity. Instead, carpal tunnel syndrome often develops as a result of a number of factors.
Factors that can increase your risk of developing carpal tunnel syndrome include:
- Anatomic factors like a wrist fracture or dislocation
- Nerve-damaging conditions like diabetes
- Inflammatory conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis
- Fluid retention, (common during pregnancy or menopause) which can increase pressure in the carpal tunnel.
- Work factors such as doing the same repetitive hand movements over time or using vibrating tools. These activities may lead to stress or injury to the carpal tunnel.
- Gender – women are more likely to develop carpal tunnel syndrome, which has been attributed to the relatively smaller size of the carpal tunnel area in women compared to men.
Symptoms of Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
Typically, the first thing people experience with carpal tunnel syndrome is a numbness or tingling in the hands. This numbness comes and goes, and can even awaken people from sleep (we sometimes sleep with our wrists in uncomfortable positions, only noticing it when awakened by the pain.) In addition, carpal tunnel syndrome can go away on its own, or persist with no warning.
Some individuals with carpal tunnel syndrome will also notice sharp, shooting pains that extend along their arms. If untreated, burning sensations in the hand, along with decreased grip strength can result.
Treatment Options for Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
The treatment for carpal tunnel syndrome is dependent on the severity as determined on a case by case basis. The most effective solution often lies in a change of habits. Individuals whose carpal tunnel syndrome has developed as a result of doing repetitive exercises or motions can start by changing these habits to diminish symptoms.
For other patients, the key to treating carpal tunnel syndrome lies in first treating the underlying cause, which may be another condition such as arthritis or diabetes. With treatment of the underlying source, the symptoms of carpal tunnel syndrome will usually improve as well. Other causes, like pregnancy, will eventually resolve on their own, causing discomfort for a brief amount of time.
Other nonsurgical treatments for carpal tunnel syndrome may include medications such as nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs or corticosteroids, steroid injections, physical therapy and yoga.
For patients that do not respond to conservative treatment methods, chronic pressure on the nerves around the wrist may necessitate surgery to achieve pain relief. Surgery is a last resort and is only recommended when all other options have been exhausted.

Rochelle had scheduled a quiz for her Grade 9 students for Period 3 on Monday morning. She knew the girls would rant and rile about it, as most of them attended school simply because they were forced to.
“I tell you, I don’t even know why I bother,” Rochelle had confided in Jennie, her colleague who taught Economics, when they were in the staffroom. “These girls protest about anything and everything. To make matters worse, Mr. Jackson always relents and submits to their demands.”
“Rochelle, you should know by now that our dear principal sides with the girls on everything. He’ll never defend you or any of the teachers at this school.”
Rochelle was shaken from her musings by the rowdy entrance of her all-girls class. The leader of this estrogen-rich pack was Melanie, she of the peroxided haircut and crass manners.
“We’re not taking any English quiz today,” Melanie shouted, gesturing grandly to include all the students in her declaration. “We want a free period, Miss. We just finished a hard Maths quiz in the period before yours,” she elaborated. Earlier, they had made a pact to refuse to take the quiz, to be as uncooperative as possible.
“Tough on you,” Rochelle responded. “This is high school, not kindergarten. You should expect to be writing many quizzes. You don’t get to choose which ones you want to and which you don’t want to write.”
All of the girls had by then taken their seats, but they were all still talking to each other, ignoring Rochelle. What she said next though silenced the class as effectively as a gun being fired right next to them.
“If you don’t take the quiz right now, Melanie, I’ll slap the fear of God into you!”
“Then go ahead. Come slap me,” Melanie dared Rochelle, effectively calling her bluff.
Rochelle stalked up to the rebellious girl. She lifted her right hand slightly, as if she were about to smack Melanie. The next second, Melanie slapped Rochelle hard across the left cheek, the sound of it echoing for seconds in the dead still classroom.
“Melanie,” Principal Jackson addressed the short, stocky girl in his office, “you need to apologize to Ms. Petersen. You slapped her and that’s just unacceptable!”
“I won’t apologize. My mother taught me to be honest, and I would be lying if I said I was sorry for slapping her. She deserved it ’cause she was going to slap me!” the feisty girl responded.
“Melanie, it was just a threat! Of course your teacher wouldn’t really have slapped you, but why did you slap her?” an exasperated Principal Jackson asked.
“She was about to slap me, but I was just faster,” Melanie answered with not a shred of remorse.
Knowing that he was on the cusp of bursting into laughter, Principal Jackson shouted at the girl.
“Get out! Go to the bathroom and wash your face!”
He would forever remember and relate the incident of the student who was a speedy slapper.

title: Quick pillows from store bought napkins

text:
I’m going to let you in on a little secret – I buy cloth napkins like they’re going out of style – and not once has our family used cloth napkins at the dinner table (I’ve got young kids, cloth napkins are definitely not gracing our table anytime soon!) Instead I turn those napkins into the easiest pillows ever.
I use zippers to enclose the pillowcase, preferably invisible zippers; I buy the 20-22″ zippers and cut it to the length I need. The zipper will come with it’s own set of instructions…follow them. If you need a little more help, search YouTube. Do not let a zipper deter you from this easy project, even with the zipper they come together in less than 30 minutes.
You’ll iron the zipper flat and then pin it to the right side of your fabric and sew with a zipper foot. They will recommend a special invisible zipper foot – never used one – just use your regular zipper foot and you’ll be fine.
Proceed in sewing right sides together around the remaining three edges, just make sure you’ve unzipped the zipper just a bit so you can turn it right side out…not that I’ve learned that the hard way!!
In order to get a nice crisp corner, once all the edges have been sewn, I take my scissors to the corners and trim them up. Cut the corner completely off and taper the edge out.
Turn the pillows right side out and you’re done. They really are that easy – no cutting fabric to size, no finishing edges…easy peasy! This same pillow was in the store at the time I bought the napkins – but I made mine for less than a quarter of the cost.

There are many romantic and beautiful cities in Europe. Some of them cannot be named, but landscapes are absolutely unforgettable. Today I will recommend 10 best European cities worth visiting. They all have a strong European romantic style, go and feel it!
The Cotswolds are known for having some of best natural scenery in South West of England, with Bibury being most charming village. In Bibury, green meadows surround old, pitched-roof stone cottages, and Kern River that runs through village is teeming with trout. But prettiest area is Arlington Row, a row of jet-black cottages built in 17th century, originally as home of weavers in nearby Arlington Mill.
The fabulous city of Hallstatt is located in central part of Austria, on shores of Lake Hallstatt. Its best views are clear and pristine lake and lush mountain. The thousand-year-old salt mine has brought lasting prosperity to city and is also most prominent building among ivy-covered houses in city.
The streets of Santorini are filled with tourists, but you will find same architecture in Folegandros, in Cyclades. Folegandros not only has blue stone streets, white-walled buildings adorned with bright colors, and bright blue-domed Greek Orthodox churches, but it also lacks crowds. For a secluded swim, head to Catergo Beach. On this secluded beach, you will find gentle blue waters lapping against pebbly shores.
This well-preserved Alsatian village is heavily influenced by French and German civilizations. Local bakeries sell not only French croissants, but also German sweet biscuits with pralines; local restaurants offer not only French foie gras, but also German sauerkraut; in old town, saved from destruction in World War II, there are not only German Gothic buildings, there are also French Neo-Baroque buildings. Cobbled streets, quiet canals and half-timbered cottages are part of its historic beauty.
North of Arctic Circle, Reine is a beautiful fishing village in Lofoten Islands. It is full of beauty of Scandinavian wilderness and blue harbor is nestled between fjords and mountains. Many of bright red fishermen's huts have now been converted into comfortable accommodations, all of which have direct access to Norwegian Sea. Staying in these cabins offers stunning night skies and some breathtaking unique experiences like midnight sun in summer and northern lights in winter.
The picturesque town of Kong lies between Counties Mayo and Galway. The city, surrounded by streams, also has lakes, green meadows and grazing sheep. Kong has many stone bridges, remains of a medieval manor and a few thatched cottages. Ashford Castle was originally a magnificent Victorian mansion that has been converted into a romantic and luxurious hotel.
This long, well-preserved medieval Spanish village, surrounded by defensive walls, is surrounded by barren hills in Aragonese region. Walking through narrow streets and winding streets of Albarracín, you will see towering stone towers, brown castles and chapels. At top of village, there is a Mudihar-style cathedral, decoration of which goes back to Islamic art.
Buses and yachts dock on Croatia's sunny coast of Dalmatia, so visitors can experience charm of Dubrovnik's Old Town and ancient island village of Hvar. It can be difficult for tourists to find their way to Puciska on island of Brac, but reward for hard work is a charming seaside village. White-stone villas with terracotta roofs, narrow cobbled streets and a stone-paved square. You can also find many pristine and secluded beaches on Adriatic Sea.
The winding cliff-top roads and small harbor protect Tellaro from crowds of tourists that fill Vernazza and Portofino. Tellaro is located in easternmost corner of Gulf of Poets (Golfo dei Poeti), with pastel buildings clinging to steep cliffs. Named after literary giants Byron and David Herbert Lawrence, who were inspired here, Poets' Bay is heaven on earth in Mediterranean.

A few days ago, a press release from INFN (National Institute of Nuclear Physics) has started one of the biggest experiments that will mean a juncture for the scientific speculation: the confirmation of the “Supersymmetry” theory or its inescapable end.
Almost everyone has heard about dark matter, that part of matter that cannot be observed due to the fact that it doesn’t emit electromagnetic radiations as every other celestial body does, but whose effects can be verified considering its gravitational influence on stars and galaxies. Actually, it constitutes almost 90% of the total mass of the Universe. First speculations about this matter started in the 30’s without reaching experimental proves, not even now days; and this is why the XenonIT experiment is so great, not so much due to the experiment itself (there are 8 more similar all over the world), but due to its majesty. The experiment will have seat in Italy, in the National Laboratories of Gran Sasso (LNGS) and 21 research groups will take part in, guided by Elena Aprile of the Columbia University of New York, the president of INFN Fernando Ferroni and LNGS director Stefano Ragazzi.
The place of the experiment is crucially important, since the isolation must be maximum, until it reaches the ‘cosmic silence’, as physicists call it. This is why the National Laboratories of Gran Sasso have been chosen, since they are under 1400m of rocks, that is an efficient shield against cosmic radiations. But the shielding of the rock is not sufficient and to reveal the rare connection between dark matter and ordinary matter, something else is required. At this point the chemical element from which the experiment got its name comes into play: Xenon is a noble ultrapure gas which is cooled down at -95°C to make it liquid; it’s a very sensible element, almost lacking any radioactive isotopes that could interfere revelations. Besides, it has good auto-shielding capacities due to its high density. 3500kg of liquid xenon are immersed in a vacuum-insulated double-wall cryostat; but the most important part of the experiment is the detector (TPC) which measures the tiny flashes of light and charge which are generated when a particle interacts with the xenon. To guarantee an additional shielding against ambient radiations that could alter the detector, the cryostat is immersed in 700m3 of ultrapure water inside of a 10m high container, equipped with 84 photomultipliers whose task is to reveal the passage of muons, particles produced by cosmic radiations which are able to reach the Earth thanks to its speed.
But how is the XenonIT able to ‘capture’ dark matter?
Physicists affirm that dark matter in which the Earth moves can connect with atomic nuclei of a revealing material releasing a little quantity of energy, so little that only high sensitivity instruments can observe it. In the XenonIT, iteration between dark and ordinary matter produces in liquid xenon two signals: a primary light ray and a charge signal that generate a second signal of delayed light. These signals can be captured by 248 sensitive photo sensors, which are each capable of detecting even single photons; the scientists use this information to reconstruct the position of the particle interaction within the detector, as well as the deposited energy and whether the interaction may have been induced by dark matter.
The experiment will start in the spring and data will be registered for two years, to find a way to support the Supersymmetry theory that since 2013 is in a standstill, seeing as the littler brother of the XenonIT, that is the ‘Large Underground Xenon’ (LUX) which is working with 370kg of xenon in South Dakota, hasn’t given any results.
So all we can do is to wait for the first results, hoping for another great discovery!

title: Guilty by association cervical spine

text:
The cervical spine begins at the base of the skull. Seven vertebrae make up the cervical spine with eight pairs of cervical nerves. The individual cervical vertebrae are abbreviated C1, C2, C3, C4, C5, C6 and C7. The cervical nerves are also abbreviated; C1 through C8.
Dysphagia following cervical spine intervention has been under-diagnosed and overlooked. Understanding the occurrence of post surgical dysphagia is essential in diagnosing and treating the condition. With increased awareness of the risks and proper identification treatment can be initiated promptly to avoid unnecessary complications during the hospital stay. Dysphagia research, as limited as it is, indicates anywhere from a 45-85% rate of dysphagia after surgery, with percentages of 10-15% suffering from persistent dysphagia over a 6 months period.
Three types of cervical fusion:
- Corpectomy – removal of entire vertebral body and 2 adjacent discs
- Discectomy – removal of disc of soft tissue between the vertebrae
- Laminectomy – removal of posterior lamina and spiny processes.
Left side anterior cervical fusion is preferred due to less risk of dysphagia as the recurrent laryngeal nerve runs laterally. But each surgeon has a preferred approach of his or her own. The recurrent laryngeal nerve is vulnerable anywhere between C1-T1.
Fact: Dysphonia can result from cervical fusion and can be attributed to vagus nerve damage
The oropharyngeal structures correlate with the cervical spine (see attachment). Cervical Spine 1-5 as well as C6 and C7 correspond with many anatomic landmarks important to swallowing.
C-1 – Hard Palate, Soft Palate, Velum
C-2 – Base of tongue, valleculae
C-3 – Base of Tongue, Retropharyngeal space, valleculae, epiglottis
C-4 – Hyoid Bone, Pyriform Sinuses
C-5 – Vocal cords
C-6 – Vocal Cords, Pyriform Sinuses, Cricopharyngeal muscle
C-7 – Cricopharyngeal muscle
Cervical osteophytes and other hypertrophic changes of the cervical spine are found in approximately 20-30% of the elderly However, large osteophytes that protrude from the anterior edge of the cervical vertebrae can impinge on the pharynx or upper esophagus. Large osteophytes have been found to cause dysphagia, odynophagia, and globus symptoms. Resnick et al. coined the term “diffuse skeletal hyperostosis” to describe these large multisegmental bridging osteophytes of the cervical and lumbar spine. They found that dysphagia was fairly common in patients with diffuse skeletal hyperostosis. Retention and aspiration were more often seen with increased osteophyte size. However, even small osteophytes may cause clinically relevant pharyngeal residue and aspiration if they occur concomitantly with other clinical conditions. The presence of a cervical osteophyte in an elderly patient does not necessarily explain individual symptoms. Swallowing dysfunction is common in this age group and can be caused by a variety of diseases, including stroke, Parkinson’s disease, dementia, and esophageal carcinoma. Videofluoroscopy has been found to be the most sensitive method to detect swallowing abnormalities in patients suffering from dysphagia.
Treatment of cervical osteophyte—induced dysphagia should depend on the nature and severity of disease. Sedation, antiinflammatory drugs, and muscle relaxants with an appropriate soft diet have been used successfully . Surgical excision of a large anterior cervical osteophyte via an anterior extrapharyngeal approach was first described by Iglauer in 1938. In a review of the literature, Sobol and Rigual found 70-80 patients with osteophyte-induced dysphagia. Of these, 19 patients underwent surgery that successfully relieved the dysphagia in all but three patients. Vocal cord paralysis has been reported in 2-11% of patients as the most common complication, followed by fistula, hematoma, infection, and transient aspiration. One patients suffered from a hypoglossal nerve paralysis postoperatively, which, to our knowledge, has not been reported as a complication of osteophyte surgery. However, some studies have suggested that surgery should be reserved for patients with severe symptoms or for those patients for whom conservative treatment failed.

Swimming Pool Coating starts with the Pool Paint Sealant that will keep the pool surface intact. There are several steps in determining when you need to sand your swimming pool as well as what pool sealant to use.
The right way to begin a pool resurfacing project is to determine what kind of sealant you are currently using in your pool. Typically, there are 2 types of coating used for pools: Chlorinated Rubber Paint or Epoxy Paint. Chlorinated Rubber Pool Paint has a life span of two to three years while Epoxy Pool Paint has a life span of five to seven years. If you can’t determine which type of paint your pool currently has on it, take a chip of the paint to a pool paint store to be tested. A good rule of thumb when resurfacing/repainting your pool is to continue to use the same type of epoxy . If you have always used Chlorinated Rubber Pool Paint, it is best to stick with it.
The next process would be to determine how many coats of coating that are ALREADY on your pool walls. You don’t want to paint over too many coats of paint. One or two coats are fine, but if you are over that amount, you’ll need to have the pool sanded . If you are to sand extra layers of pool epoxy before to applying new either Chlorinated Rubber Pool coating or Epoxy Pool coating , be sure to polish the entire area before sealing .
The final step before you apply fresh pool paint when resealing your swimming pool is to plug any cracks within the swimming pool . You’ll need to sand cracks and patch holes to ensure a longer lasting pool paint life.
Once you’ve prepared your pool to be resurfaced and repainted, you can apply your pool paint. Chlorinated Rubber paints can be painted directly to the surface of your pool. All Chlorinated Rubber pool paints are self-priming. Epoxy based pool paints usually need a coat of primer first, most often on bare concrete.
When applying the pool paint to the surface of your swimming pool, you’ll want to roll the chlorinated rubber pool paint or epoxy based pool paint on evenly and at a good pace. Whichever type of pool paint you use, be sure to following the pool paint manufacturer’s directions for proper curing and coating time.

title: This notorious b i g star wars mashup is stellar

text:
The Force was strong withÂ Notorious B.I.G.
The legendary rapperÂ is still recognized today as one of the pioneers of rap and still consideredÂ highly among fans and critics alike. The same can be said about Â Star Wars and its impact on pop culture and filmmaking, even outside of the science fiction genre. Like peanut butter and chocolate, both are great on their own, but combining them creates something that will truly blow minds.
Now, rapper Richie BransonÂ and producer Solar Slim have brought Biggie to a galaxy far, far away by mixing tracksÂ from various Biggie albums with the songs of the Star Wars saga. The remix album is Life After Death Star, andÂ not since Dangermouse’s The Grey Album has there been such a brilliant blending of two genres that have no business being this good together.
Under the name Otaku Gang, Branson and Slim meld hard-hitting tracks likeÂ “Ten Crack Commandments”, “Dead Wrong”, and “Long Kiss Goodnight” with the universally recognized score composed by John Williams. The remix can be heard in its entirety on SoundCloud, and I personally recommend the remixes of “Big Poppa”, “Party N’ Bull****”, and especially “Dead Wrong”, which features probably the best use of “The Imperial March” since the Star Wars movies themselves.
Give the album a listen below, be sure to let us know what you think, and which track is your favorite. What other John Williams’ scores should be mashed up with legendary rappers? Let us know in the comments below!
