On St Patrick's Day, March 17, 2002 celebrities from all over the golfing globe gathered in Atlanta, Georgia to honor the legendary golfer Robert Tyre "Bobby" Jones. The occasion was the centennial anniversary of Jones' birth. As an amateur golfer in the 1920's, Bobby Jones won 13 major championships in both amateur and professional golf, securing his place in golfing history as one of the greatest to ever play the game. " He never played for money, but no man ever left a game more enriched by having played it," said Furman Bischer, a columnist for the Atlanta Journal newspaper.
Jones was remembered at an invitation only black tie dinner hosted by the Atlanta History Center in the city's Buckhead district. It was the only event in America to mark this anniversary with a formal celebration of his accomplishments and contributions to the game of golf. The Atlanta History Center, home of the largest public exhibit on Jones life and career, "Down the Fairway with Bobby Jones" hosted around 460 guests from the many institutions connected to Jones throughout his life. "This event will be the first time all of the universities, clubs, businesses associated with Jones have come together to celebrate his exemplary life", said Catherine Lewis, Ph.D., exhibition curator and author of Considerable Passions: Golf, The Masters and the Legacy of Bobby Jones.
Charles R. Yates, 1938 British Amateur Champion and close friend of Jones, chaired the evening's program. Each	guest was taken through the life of Bobby Jones from his fourteen year playing career to his academic achievements as a student to his successes as a corporate lawyer following his retirement from golf at the age of 27. Bob Jones IV and Anne Hood Laird, Jones' grandchildren served as co-chairs. Peter Kessler, formerly of the Golf Channel, was the Master of ceremonies for the evening.
Jones' achievements as a golfer have been written about exhaustively, yet the event celebrated all facets of Jones' life in which he became more renowned than any politician, ambassador or journalist of his day. Arthur Howell, a partner at the event's leading sponsor Alston and Bird, the law firm Jones joined in 1928, emphasized the incredible diversity in Jones' character. "Playing as an amateur, he also obtained a degree from Georgia Tech, a Masters degree from Harvard, and attended Emory Law School long enough to pass the Georgia Bar exam and enter his father's law firm to culminate his golf career with the "Grand Slam", retiring at the ripe old age of 27", said Howell, a keynote speaker at the dinner.
Jones is regarded as a man of great character who held exemplary standards of living. He inspired some of golf's greats such as Arnold Palmer. "In fact, at one point before I turned Pro in 1954, I was planning to pattern my life after that of Bob Jones, finding a vocation and position that would enable me to remain as an amateur and play in the important national and international tournaments each year," Palmer said. Tributes like these have flooded in from around the golfing world to commemorate Jones at this special event. Through the use of video and audio clips recorded specially for the event, golf personalities Jack Nicklaus, Nancy Lopez, Jim Nantz, Alistair Cooke and Ben Crenshaw shared their reflections on Jones' impact on their professional careers, the Masters and his continuing presence in the game of golf, Dr. Lewis said.
The event received support from the two governing bodies of golf, the United States Golf Association and the Royal and Ancient Golf Club of St. Andrews. The Captain of the R&A, Graeme Simmers was present to speak about the congenial relationship Jones forged with the townspeople of St Andrews. Bobby Jones won the British Open over the famous Old Course at St Andrews in 1927 and the British Amateur there in the "Grand Slam" year of 1930. The people of St. Andrews recognized his special achievements by awarding him the "Freedom of the City and the Royal Burgh" in 1958, an occasion when Jones said famously, " you could take out of my life all of my experiences except those at St. Andrews and I would still have had a rich and full life"
"Augusta National and the Masters Tournament have always been uniquely special to me, largely due to the history and aura of Bob Jones". The spirit of Bob Jones lives on at the Masters and the winner of the green jacket in April will join the tradition started by an icon who represented mankind's loftiest standards, said Jim Nantz, golf broadcaster for CBS Sports.
The University of St Andrews and Atlanta's Emory were represented as the twin hosts of an international student exchange program called the R.T Jones Memorial Scholarship, founded in 1976. The prestigious scholarship symbolizes the transatlantic goodwill that Jones fostered during his lifetime. The R.T Jones Memorial Trust were represented by important figures from Atlanta society including Charlie Yates and developer Tom Cousins, who restored the original East Lake course and surrounding neighborhood, as well as the current Jones scholars from the University of St Andrews. The Trust is also holding a reunion of all former Jones scholars and Trustees this coming June in St. Andrews, "The Home of Golf". The occasion will be marked by a dinner at the Old Course Hotel and golfing events over Jones' beloved Old Course.
The East Lake Golf Club, where Jones learned to play golf as a six-year-old under the watchful eye of Scottish professional Stewart Maiden, was also a sponsor. The Atlanta Athletic Club, where Jones was a member, also made a significant contribution and hosted a golf day prior to the dinner on the 17th. Members from Merion Golf Club in Ardmore, Pennsylvania where Jones completed the final part of the Grand Slam by winning the U.S Amateur in1930 were present. As were members of Royal Liverpool G.C in Hoylake, England, where Jones won the British Open that same year. A contingent from the Old Course in St Andrews, who hosted a dinner for Jones' birthday on Friday, March 15th, then flew across the Atlantic to join the celebration at the Atlanta History center in Jones' hometown.
Jones' grandson, Bob Jones IV said he remains indebted to the Atlanta History Center for their work in ensuring that the legacy of Bobby Jones continues to inspire people of all ages. The donations made by the event's sponsors will be used to further expand the Bobby Jones exhibit. Dr Lewis said she hopes to do this by purchasing key artifacts and photographs to enhance the current Bob Jones collection. As part of the evening's proceedings two artifacts to be added to the exhibition were unveiled during the dinner. "The Atlanta History center remains committed to keeping my grandfather's legacy alive. Their exhibitions and programs continue to introduce Bobby Jones' story to scores of school children and golf enthusiasts", said Bob Jones IV.
Bobby Jones died in 1971 after having battled the debilitating spinal disease syringomyelia since its diagnosis in 1948, when he played his last ever round of golf. He was brave and generous in the face of this terrible disease. When friends expressed their sympathy, he often replied "Just remember, son, you always play the ball where it lies". "That was the kind of man he was", said Charlie Yates, a lifelong friend.
Founded 75 years ago as the Atlanta Historical Society, the Atlanta History Center includes permanent and traveling exhibitions in the Atlanta History Museum, two historic homes, library/archives and 33 acres of gardens. The Atlanta History Center offers historical experiences for all ages, integrating history, education and life-enrichment programs. For more information, visit www.AtlantaHistoryCenter.com.


The story is written with a great rhyming cadence and a whole lot of wit. It's delivered with a silly humour aimed to wholly appeal to young children. My 6 year old son found the book absolutely hysterical. With the main themes of the book being poop and knickers he was literally in stitches as we read it. Even the illustrations are funny, from the animal's expressions, to the rooster with a peg on his nose (because of the smell of course), and the rooster booster catapult.
The final scene is an absolute cracker – who doesn't love a rooster saving the day with nothing more than a pair of knickers and some poop? My children certainly, who thought it was rather awesome. The book is obviously written by someone who knows children and what makes them laugh, and while it wasn't really my sense of humour their giggles were rather infectious.
A rather funny, silly book starring a pair of knickers, lots of poop and a very clever rooster. Guaranteed to make any small child laugh and maybe gross out their parents just a little bit too.
*Disclosure: We were sent this book for the purpose of this review, however, all opinions are my own.
This looks like loads of fun, I bet my daughter would love it! Anything with the word poo in it seems to be a hit these days!

Finally, the Futon Critic is reporting that Fox will give "Fringe" a seven-week hiatus when its midseason schedule rolls out next year. Exact dates are being finalized, but the break is expected to begin Feb. 11.
In place of "Fringe," Fox plans to launch the midseason drama "Past Life." That show is expected to start airing Thursday, Feb. 11, with back-to-back episodes, with the remaining episodes to air Thursdays at 9 p.m.
"Fringe" then would return April 1 with the remaining seven episodes of its second season, according to Futon Critic, with the goal of ensuring the series will run repeat-free in 2010.

The dedication of Clavel recognized
Tailor Stone | June 2, 2020 | Health | No Comments
For its job done in NURSING homes during the pandemic of the COVID-19, the boxer Kim Clavel received the award for Pat-Tillman on Tuesday.
This honor, which is awarded in memory of former player of the NFL, will be presented at the gala of the ESPYS, on the 21st of June. Created in 2014, this award honors a person " who has a strong link with the sport that has served others in a way that echoes the legacy of Tillman. "
Clavel has learned the happy news in a special way.
"I was asked to return to the scene of the filming of ESPN, she explained during an interview with The Journal de Montréal. I growling a little. I arrived at the place where a computer is waiting for me.
"It was my grandmother who told me that I had won the prize-Pat-Tillman. I'm crying because it's been so long that I had not seen. My sister and my mother have also participated in the announcement.
"Everything that I've done work in NURSING homes, I have not done to win awards or recognition. I don't realize what is happening to me. "
This is the widow of Tillman, Mary, who was named the Quebec for the prize that bears the name of her husband.
"By choosing to return on the first line of health care in the midst of a pandemic, Kim embodies the spirit of service, duty, and selflessness that Pat embodied, she commented by way of press release.
"Despite the dangers of the COVID, and the shelving of his career as a boxer, Kim has chosen to focus its energy on those who need it the most. "
The last months of the pugilist have been hectic. After a change of promoter, and the cancellation of his first fight with the Group Yvon Michel (GYM) because of the COVID-19, the boxer decided to return to his job of licensed practical nurse in order to give a helping hand in several NURSING homes in the region of Montreal. A different kind of duel.
Great visibility
With this honor, Clavel will obtain visibility and recognition in the United States, but also around the world.
In recent years, the price Pat-Tillman has mostly been handed over to american soldiers who went to war. For example, the recipient of last year's, Kirstie Ennis, has become a para-athlete after a helicopter crash in Afghanistan.
The history of Clavel is not too dramatic, but it is also inspiring. As a nursing assistant, she has worked in conditions that were far from easy. Despite the risks and the fatigue, she has always done with a smile.
Contract with Top Rank ?
This honor could also have an impact on his career. According to our information, the promoter Yvon Michel would be advanced in his negotiations with Top Rank for an agreement of co-sponsorship of the career of Clavel.
We can even expect an agreement in the coming weeks. This is not a surprise. Top Rank and GYM already have agreements for the services of Eleider Alvarez and Oscar Rivas. They had also found a common ground for the transfer of Artur Beterbiev in Top Rank.
For Clavel, this would be a win-win agreement. On one side, the protégé of Danielle Bouchard could move to the next step of his career at all levels. And the other, Top Rank and could benefit from the new visibility of Québec to attract the spotlight to the sport of boxing.
Clavel (11-0, 2 K.-O.), who holds the title NABF out of 108 lb, was supposed to be the star of a GYM card in September. However, if she accepts the offer of Top Rank, the plans could very well change.

Barbra Streisand and Barry Levinson are in advanced negotiations to revive STX Entertainment's "Gypsy," TheWrap has learned.
Levinson will direct, while Streisand is set to produce with Joel Silver. Streisand will also be involved in the script, which Richard LaGravenese is writing.
Jule Styne and Stephen Sondheim's musical "Gypsy" tells the true story of Momma Rose and her two daughters, whom she is pushing to become stars of the vaudeville stage — one as the burlesque legend Gypsy Rose Lee.
It is considered one of the best musicals ever made.
The project previously had a home at Universal, which put it into turnaround. STX chairman Adam Fogelson was at Universal when the project was in development there.


If you're on the road without a wireless modem, using your phone as a hotspot is a handy way of getting work done online. We've been trying this with the new Samsung Galaxy S III.
Ever since mobile phones have been able to connect to the Internet, people have looked for ways to connect their computers to their phones. This used to be done with cables although these days we can use wireless technologies like WiFi and Bluetooth to connect our smartphones to computers and tablets. This is called tethering although Apple calls this capability "Personal Hotspot".
We've been testing the Samsung Galaxy S III, whch is generating quite a bit of attention since it went on sale last week. So how easy is tethering to use with this phone?
The Galaxy S III supports tethering either by USB cable to a computer or Bluetooth or WiFi to computers and tablets.
Each different connection method has its own limitations. USB and Bluetooth only allow the Galaxy S III to connect to one other device. WiFi tethering allows up to ten other devices to connect to the Internet via the S III.
The tethering feature works well with the Galaxy S III. We used it to connect a laptop and tablet to the Internet. Our only criticism of the Galaxy S III's tethering feature is that it's not easily accessed. While most other commonly used features are found on a shortcut bar that's accessed by dragging your finger down from the top edge of the screen, tethering is buried under Settings | Wireless and Networks | More Settings | Tethering and portable hotspot.
Tethering, especially by Bluetooth, uses your phone's battery faster, although with the Galaxy S III this is less of an issue as you canbuy a second battery and swap should the tank run dry. Samsung also makes charging docks for the Galaxy S III that charge the phone and a second battery simultaneously.
The benefit of using the S III, or any smartphone that allows tethering, is that it negates the need to buy a USB modem or other 3G device for Internet access. With mobile data plans on smartphones now offering decent data allowances, you can reduce the number of different services you need from your telco.


When Amanda heard about a lost, lonely dog at Evans Creek campground in Washington state, she and her friend Dylan decided to do the unthinkable. The two girls — now being hailed heroes — posted photos illustrating the great lengths they went to in order to rescue the frightened, emaciated dog known as "Bear," who wouldn't let any humans get close.
For an hour, Amanda and Dylan tried to lure the dog with food, but it didn't work. The next day when they went back, the dog was in the same spot. Again, they tried to coax him with food, but to no avail. That's when they got creative. Very creative.
Pretending she was injured and in need of help, Amanda laid down in fetal position on the gravel and started crawling backward toward the dog. In fact, she spent the next hour slowly inching closer and closer to Bear. When he voiced his discomfort, she'd start whimpering and yawning, which is a calming signal, and continued to inch closer until she rested directly on his side!
For two hours, Amanda and Bear cuddled, until he finally let her slip a lead around his neck. Bear was finally safe.
Bear is on the road to recovery thanks to these two incredible heroes. Because of his eventual friendliness, they think he got lost from his family. They're trying to find the dog's owners, but if no one claims him, a local rescue group will help find him a loving home.
A frightened, starving dog nicknamed "Bear" was alone in a park, with no one to turn to. When Amanda heard about him, she and her friend decided to do something about it. Whatever it took.
After trying to coax the dog with food to no avail, Amanda curled up on the gravel road right by Bear, but with her back to him. He growled a little bit, but eventually got close enough to smell her. She laid in the road like this for 20 minutes before Bear lost interest and wandered off.
But she didn't give up. Again, Amanda got down on the ground with her back to the dog and slowly started crawling backwards.
For the next hour, she stay curled up in a ball, inching closer and closer to Bear.
Amanda knew how delicate the situation was. She made sure not to try to grab him because she didn't want to lose the trust she was beginning to build.
Finally, she got right up next to Bear. She made "comfort" sounds, and continued to slowly get closer until she was rested right up against his body. Incredible!
Bear was emaciated -- his bone and ribs were sticking out. But Amanda and Dylan finally earned Bear's trust. They could have given up hours ago, but they acted with patience and understanding.
Finally, Bear allowed the girls to place a lead around his neck. He's safe at last!
That night, Amanda discovered Bear wanted to be carried everywhere, and she happily obliged! The two snuggled together until they got to the vet, where Bear is currently on the road to recovery. What an AMAZING story that should be seen by all -- please SHARE Bear's story with your friends on Facebook!

Although the company got its start making sewing machines, electronics manufacturer Brother has become one of the biggest names in printers, competing with long-established brands like HP, Epson, and Canon. Brother has made a niche for itself in the printer market with affordability and ease of use, so if you need a printer that can produce high-quality output without breaking the bank, Brother printers are the best place to start.
Read our shopping guide for our take on Brother printers – the features you should look for, the specifications that matter, and the "gotchas" to avoid – and you'll be all set to find the model that's perfect for you.
The first decision to make when buying a Brother printer is whether you want one that prints with ink or one that prints with toner. Both have pluses and minuses.
Ink printers are more affordable than laser printers, and replacement ink is also less expensive than laser toner. Ink printers leave pages wet, which can lead to smearing before the ink dries, especially if you're printing photos. If you do a lot of printing in color, or you don't have a lot of money to spend, an ink printer is still a solid choice.
Laser printers are pricier but typically print faster and with less risk of print imperfections. Color laser printers are especially expensive, and so is the toner, so some laser printers have high ongoing costs. If you need a printer for daily use or don't need a color printer, Brother has multiple laser models that are surprisingly affordable.
Brother's All-in-One spares no expense – it's got high-resolution scanning, built-in WiFi, and it's significantly faster than other models in its class. It doesn't print in color, but at this price point it's one of the best values in monochrome all-in-ones.
Most printer manufacturers provide pages of statistics about each model, but when it comes down to it, there are three specifications that matter the most. When you're comparing Brother printers, pay close attention to these key stats.
Dots per inch (dpi): This is a measurement of the resolution of an image or text that a printer can produce. For print work, a lower number (such as 200 dpi) is fine for readable text, but for images or photos, a higher number (such as 2,400 dpi) is recommended.
Pages per minute (ppm): This describes how quickly the printer can print. If you print a lot of long documents, this basically equates to how long you'll be waiting, so it's worthwhile paying attention to which models have faster ppm rates.
Pages per ink or toner cartridge: This is an estimate of the number of pages you can expect to print out of a single ink or toner cartridge before you have to replace it. Ink and toner are both pretty expensive, so the higher the number the better.
Near-field communication (NFC) is a wireless protocol for devices similar to Bluetooth. Bluetooth has a wide range but typically slow data-transfer speeds. In contrast, NFC has a very short range but can transfer information faster. NFC-enabled Android phones can send documents to print to a Brother printer that supports NFC in a matter of seconds without having to pair any devices.
Brother offers a wide array of printers, each with a different set of helpful features, but some are better than others. Here are the features we consider essential.
Wireless printing: What used to be a luxury has quickly become a bare essential. Brother printers with wireless printing let you send photos or documents directly from your iOS or Android smartphone to be printed immediately. If you spend more time on your phone than you do at your desktop computer, or if you move around your house with your laptop a lot, wireless printing is a crucial convenience.
Double-sided printing: We love saving trees, and double-sided printing is one of the best ways to do it. It also saves money on paper, which will make a big difference if you expect to print large documents on a regular basis.
Scanning and batch scanning: While some Brother printers are "all-in-ones," meaning they print, scan, and fax, other models simply offer printing and scanning without a built-in fax machine. Having a scanner can be incredibly useful, especially if your work involves signing a lot of documents. Having a batch scanner means you can scan multiple pages in a single job – a huge time-saver over scanning documents one page at a time.
If you buy a Brother printer with a built-in fax machine, you'll need a phone line to connect it to. Fax machines require traditional landlines and don't typically work with Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) phone lines.
If you buy a Brother printer with a built-in scanner and auto-feeder, make sure any documents you place in it to scan don't have any paper clips or staples attached. These fasteners can cause major damage to internal scanner components or scratch your scanner's glass.
Most Brother printers connect to your computer using a USB cable, typically one that supports the older USB 2.0 standard. While some newer models support the faster USB 3.0 standard, when it comes to printers, USB 2.0 is more than fast enough because the amount of data being transferred is so small.
Brother's printers are priced to compete with better-known brands – and offer outstanding value in just about any price range. You can expect to pay between $50 and $350 for a Brother printer, depending on features.
Inexpensive: Between $50 and $99, you'll find Brother's best black-and-white printers (sometimes referred to as "monochrome"). Models in this price range don't sacrifice much besides color, so it's definitely possible to find a Brother laser printer with things like wireless printing for less than $100.
Mid-range: Between $100 and $199, Brother sells models that include features that other brands charge a lot more for. In this price range, you'll see robust multifunction machines: Brother's printer/scanner/fax machines that have laser printing, duplex printing, and WiFi. If you need a printer that produces above-average prints and includes nearly all of the bells and whistles, many of Brother's best values are in this range.
Expensive: Between $200 and $350, you'll encounter Brother's printers for small businesses. Printers in this price range are built like tanks and work well in bigger network environments with a variety of devices. If you need a printer that will easily handle printing more than 50 pages a day, you'll need to look at Brother's most expensive options.
Brother has packed a lot of quality into this unassuming little laser printer, but the real story here is how easy it is to use. Setting up WiFi access is a snap, and replacing the toner is a two-minute process. If you dread dealing with electronics and just need a printer that will work when you need it to, this is the one to buy.
Research how much replacement ink or toner costs for each model you're considering. Most printer manufacturers aren't really in the printer business. They're in the ink business. If you find a printer with an unbelievably low price, look up the cost of ink or toner for that specific model and you may find that some "amazing" deals will cost more over the course of ownership than models that require a higher upfront investment.
Before installing any software or drivers for your Brother printer, make sure your computer even needs them. Many operating systems can treat Brother printers as "plug-and-play" printers. For years, computer owners have wrestled with installing printer drivers – the software that enables your computer to interact with the printer – on their computers. Manufacturer drivers and software can be useful, but nowadays most major operating systems (including Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux) include drivers for a wide variety of printers, so all you have to do is plug the printer in. Before you start fussing with third-party software, test to see what your operating system can do on its own.
Don't stock up on more than one extra ink or toner cartridge at a time. Both ink and toner dry out, so if you buy too much ahead of time and you don't need it for a while, your spare ink could end up useless. If you print fewer than 50 pages per month, don't keep more than one spare ink or toner cartridge.
If you really want to see which Brother printer is the best value, take the cost of a single ink or toner cartridge, and divide that amount by the number of pages it projects it will print. That is your estimated cost per page. By understanding each model's cost per page, you can compare long-term costs of ownership.
Q. Will a Brother printer work with my Mac?
A. Yes. All Brother printers are compatible with Mac OS X, either through Brother's included software or OS X's built-in plug-and-play printer functionality.
Q. Which looks better: paper printed from an inkjet printer or paper printed from a laserjet?
A. It depends on the specific printers, but in general, laser printers produce clearer documents and are less prone to the smearing that can occur on pages printed with an inkjet. Print clarity is measured in dots per inch (dpi), so if you're trying to compare two printers to determine which will produce the better output, the model with the higher dpi is likely to be much sharper.
Q. Will photos look OK if I print them with a laser printer?
A. Yes! Although color laser printers are among the most expensive printers available, when it comes to printing photographs, they can produce some of the best prints available (although inkjets with multiple-color inks do a very good job as well). Just be careful when you're looking at laser printers. In order for photographs to look good, the printer needs to have a high dpi rating. For color photographs, we recommend a model with at least 2,400 dpi.


Liverpool have a date at the Emirates Stadium this evening, where they'll face an Arsenal team that has looked strong in recent weeks. Our guide reveals all you need to know to watch Arsenal vs Liverpool online, including full live stream details and the kick-off time.
The two giants came into this season with very different aims, and they've both impressed for different reasons. Jürgen Klopp's men looks like Man City's main rivals for the Premier League title, and though their front three haven't quite hit their stride yet, their goalkeeper and back line have improved enormously.
Arsenal under new manager Unai Emery, meanwhile, look like a completely different beast to the side that continuously underperformed during the final few seasons of Arsene Wenger's reign. Their winning run may have come to an end with a draw at Crystal Palace last weekend, but confidence will still be sky-high.
But can the Gunners turn it on against a top side? They've played only two of their top-four rivals in the Premier League so far this season, and lost on both occasions. Liverpool, on the other hand, have beaten Tottenham and drawn against Chelsea and Man City.
The Reds, however, have looked vulnerable at times this season. Before their wins over Cardiff and Red Star Belgrade, they struggled to a 1-0 win over minnows Huddersfield, were fortunate to hold Man City to a draw, and lost 1-0 to Napoli − though the scoreline could have been far, far worse.
There are always goals when these two sides play and, whichever side you're on, Arsenal vs Liverpool is the pick of this weekend's Premier League fixtures. Streaming the game could barely be easier, if you've got the right package. Here's how to do it.
The game is scheduled to kick off at 5:30pm GMT on Saturday, November 3, and the match will be shown on TV on BT Sport 1 and BT Sport 4K UHD. The build-up starts at 5pm.
All that's left to do is cart in the prawn sandwiches, sit back, and enjoy what will hopefully be a very entertaining affair.

News And Media 2016
As a global business Shell places great emphasis on innovation. Apart from our business divisions for oil and gas exploration and extraction (Upstream), processing and marketing of oil products (Downstream) and the integrated gas trade (Integrated Gas), Shell also has a separate division – Projects and Technologies - where all research and development works are concentrated.
by Professor John Read, General Manager Technology, Shell Bitumen.
More than 10,000 of Shell's 90,000-plus employees work in the Projects and Technologies division. The research locations are spread out all over the world and focus on different issues.
In Europe, our Hamburg laboratory is the centre of expertise in worldwide fuel and lubricant research. Here, scientists work on how to make conventional fuels such as petrol and diesel even more efficient. Their focus also lies on advancing the development of alternative energies for road, maritime and air traffic. It's also where the fuel for Ferrari in Formula 1 is produced and filled into containers, and transported to racing events.
However, the centre of our bitumen research and development is located in Bangalore, India. The facility is closely networked with technology centres in Houston, Bangkok, Shanghai, Beijing and the European Solution Centre in Strasbourg. This lab provides the impetus for the Shell Bitumen trade worldwide. Shell currently sells around 12,000 tonnes of bitumen daily to 1,600 clients in 28 countries – enough to surface 450 kilometres of roads each day – that's 1 kilometre every four minutes.
Thanks to our international, leading-edge research, we can offer solutions to improve the quality of road infrastructure, such as addressing deformation, resistance, noise protection, safety and economic efficiency.
Among these are high performance products, such as Shell Cariphalte, a polymer-modified binder with very high resistance to deformation and excellent low-temperature flexibility, and which is therefore ideally suited to extreme conditions as well as making sound economic sense on a whole life cost basis.
Shell Cariphalte is not only used on the busiest roads in Europe, but also on more unusual traffic areas. For example, it has been used to pave the taxying, take-off and landing runways of some of the biggest international airports in the world, including Heathrow and Gatwick airports in London, Frankfurt, Hong Kong and Dubai. Shell Cariphalte is also used in many Formula 1 racetracks, such as those in Singapore, Malaysia and Hockenheim, or the Ferrari test track in Fiorano, Italy.
We have also focused our efforts for many years on asphalt recycling. Shell Cariphalte RC is our innovative, cost-effective solution that helps conserve natural resources and reduce total asset cost. Launched more than 16 years ago, it is a cost-effective polymer modified bitumen designed for high performance road applications in combination with Reclaimed Asphalt Pavement in base, upper and high-quality layers.
Another example of our innovation is Shell Bitufresh. This is an additive which reduces bitumen odour, and can therefore significantly improve the work environment during asphalting works. In recognition of our innovative approach, Shell received the International Road Federation's Global Road Achievement Award for Research last summer for Bitufresh, and in June 2016 we launched the product in France. Currently, we have 49 active patent series reflecting our focus on R&D over the last 96 years.
Looking to the future there are many more opportunities to innovate. Shell Bitumen has developed synthetic bitumen emulsions that reduce nitrous oxides in the air by converting them into harmless nitrates that wash away from the road surface. We have also created a phosphorescent binder that absorbs light during the day and then gives it out at night to reduce the need for ambient street lighting. We have developed conductive asphalt that absorbs heat, which is then converted into electricity to feed the grid, and active asphalt that attracts PM10 particulates from the air to the road surface.
These innovations demonstrated that it is possible for roads to contribute to the sustainable development and to do more than just carry people and goods from A to B, however, route to market remains an issue for these type of products that cross more than one Government Department and work will need to be done for these types of product to become effective contributors to society.
Offering innovative products is only one key aspect to success; the other is a robust supply and distribution network.
Due to numerous refinery shutdowns and configuration changes, the bitumen supply on the European continent has changed fundamentally in recent years. Shell set the right course in good time. Through long-term, strategic investments, production at the refineries in Godorf near Cologne and in Pernis near Rotterdam were significantly increased. Furthermore, the expansion and flexibility of transport routes to include ship and tank wagons, as well as combined transports were improved in order to optimise and increase the supply chain coverage from the refinery via depots to the customer.
Finally, a constant market challenge is the continuing price volatility, which makes it difficult for asphalt manufacturers to safely calculate the cost of long-term road construction projects or those that are still far off in the future. Shell has responded to this with innovative risk management concepts, and offers customers price certainty, price flexibility as well as volume and purchase flexibility.
Professor John Read has worked in the bitumen and sulphur industry for nearly 30 years, from bitumen analytics to asphalt supply in a range of roles at Shell. John recently finished two terms as the Vice President of Eurobitume and as Shell's Primary Director of the Asphalt Institute in the US.
Shell has been innovating in the bitumen business since 1920 and currently has 49 active patents linked to bitumen and asphalt.
Shell operates one of the world's largest bitumen-dedicated research and development centres in Bangalore, India.
Shell is a leader in bitumen technology, and recently published the "Shell Bitumen Handbook, Sixth Edition", which covers the latest topics in bitumen technology and application.
Shell Bitumen operates a network of Regional Technical Centres located in key regions (Beijing, China, Strasbourg, France, and Bangkok, Thailand.)
Shell is the world's largest bitumen marketer, and delivers enough bitumen to pave a one-lane kilometre road every four minutes.
Shell Bitumen also offers its customers fixed price risk management services, giving contractors greater price stability, enabling them to plan project budgets more accurately

I officially launched Kevin on the Street in the spring of 2010, so 2011 was its first full year of operation. Not like the world (or the web) needs another top ten list, but in digging through my Google Analytics account I thought it was pretty interesting to see what stories garnered the most interest.
Not surprisingly, as its a major focus of my research practice at TABB Group and this website, swap execution facilities were the primary focus. But to keep things interesting, a post about some research I did around buy side OMS and EMS usage made the list as well. It also seems that videos are a popular way of consuming information, so I'll be sure to keep that coming in 2012.
Thanks everyone for your interest in the site. I'm always open to suggestions and ideas as to how I can make the site more useful and interesting – so please feel free to contact me at TABB Group or via kevin@kevinonthestreet.com. Happy New Year!

"Live Solidarity – Secure Diversity"
The 2020 COVID-19 pandemic has taken a terrible toll in lives, illness, and economic devastation and it is having diverse effects on violence and crime. Therefore, the Daily Prevention News publishes weekly a Corona Crime Issue dedicated to collect related relevant news and information.
Coronavirus Pandemic (COVID-19): What is the global situation now?
Only if we end the pandemic everywhere, we can end the pandemic anywhere. The entire world has the same goal: cases of COVID-19 need to go to zero. The Data Explorer below shows which countries are making progress to this goal and which are not. The data on confirmed cases only becomes meaningful when it can be interpreted in light of how much a country is testing. This is why we built the global database on COVID-19 testing. You can switch to the testing data right in this chart. Particularly informative is the metric 'share of positive tests' – which shows you the share of tests that are confirming a test. This rate should ideally be very low. If it is high a country is likely not identifying a large share of cases. If it is low then a country tests in proportion with the size of its outbreak and the number of confirmed cases is closer to the number of total cases. Source: Our World In Data

Learning Inequality During the Covid-19 Pandemic
Suspension of face-to-face instruction in schools during the COVID-19 pandemic has led to concerns about consequences for student learning. So far, data to study this question have been limited. Here we evaluate the effect of school closures on primary school performance using exceptionally rich data from the Netherlands (n≈350,000). The Netherlands represents a best-case scenario with a relatively short lockdown (8 weeks) and a high degree of technological preparedness. Source: Nuffield College University of Oxford
Hidden scars: the impact of violence and the COVID-19 pandemic on children's mental health
Despite commitments made by the international community to end violence against children and support their mental health, there has been a serious lack of investment and capacity to provide quality, rights-based, culturally appropriate mental health care globally. The arrival of the COVID-19 pandemic has magnified these challenges. This article outlines how the risk of children experiencing violence has increased and how the pandemic has weakened the capacity of child protection and mental health services to respond.

App deep linking: Do we really need Facebook App Links and similar services
January 22, 2015, by Ruadhán O'Donoghue
It seems odd that in 2015 we must address ourselves to the problem of linking resources across a network, but in the version of 2015 we're lumbered with, we live in an appified world, so address ourselves we must. While linking has formed the backbone of the web since the demise of Compuserve and AOL's walled gardens in the mid-nineties, the apps that populate our smartphone home screens are about as interlinked as Compuserve's forums in the early 1990s; which is to say, not very interlinked at all. Nor are they indexed by search engines, so if the information you need is inside an app, it's invisible in search results.
Each app is an island in a vast archipelago that boasts neither boats nor bridges. But moves are afoot to fix that, and to create a system of links between them. Oh yeah, the '90s are back, baby.
So, what's the problem with deep linking apps?
Before we get to efforts to de-silo apps, a quick illustration of why a lack of interconnection is a problem for the user. Let's say you're in the Facebook app, and a friend sends you a link to a product listed on Amazon. You want to buy the product; it's something you've been looking for for a while. You have the Amazon app on your phone, with your credit card details, delivery address, and so on, input and ready to use. You click on the Facebook link… and you're taken to the Amazon website, and asked to log in. Frustration.
So a lack of links is a problem for users. It's also a problem for business. Discoverability in app stores is a big issue for companies and developers, and it can be hard to point users towards apps that might be relevant to them. Once an app has been downloaded, it can be quickly forgotten—66% of app users only open apps between one and 10 times. Showing users a download prompt for an app when they click on a link, whether in an app or a browser, can help solve the problem of discoverability, though care must be taken so that the implementation doesn't annoy your users or violate Google's advice. Jumping users between already installed apps on their phones, through in-app or web links, could solve the problem of engagement drop-off. It could also be a boon for advertisers—a user could be served up with, for example, an ad for a Living Social discount offer within one app; with a tap the Living Social app is launched and the user is taken directly to deal within the app; one more tap and the ad network has a conversion to boast about.
Deep linking and custom URL schemes
Why is it then, that in 2015 deep linking on any platform should be a hot topic? That it is, is arguably all thanks to Apple. When the company created the App Store, it set up a wall between websites and apps: websites run HTML, while apps run native code. And although Apple allowed apps to be referenced via URLs, it insisted on separated URL schemes—so rather than the standard http:// we're familiar with for websites, apps got custom URL schemes, with scheme names (or protocols) looking, for example, like facebook://.
When Android came along, it too used custom URL schemes to deep link apps; but importantly, it also allowed regular http:// URLs to be used too, meaning that native apps on these platforms did not necessarily need to be cut off from the rest of the web as with iOS apps.
You can see this approach in action right now if you have the Twitter app installed on your Android device. Open up your browser and click on this link: https://twitter.com/mobiForge/status/558355939989143553. Although this is a web link, it can be opened in the Twitter app, so the user is given a choice of apps that can open it: browsers and Twitter in this case. So it's a deep link into an Android app, using a regular http:// URL. If you don't have the Twitter app installed it will simply be opened up in the web browser on your device. Try the same thing on your iOS device, with Twitter installed, and you'll still have that link opened up in a browser.
The user is given a choice of apps which are able to respond to particular web links, in this case http://twitter.com/…
Deep linking apps is a cross-platform problem
The past year or so has seen a flurry of activity around the problem of deep linking apps, with Google, Facebook and Twitter all advancing partial solutions, along with several start-ups, amongst them URX, Quixey, and Branch Metrics. In different ways and to different degrees, these companies have addressed themselves to several problems around app deep linking: creating standards for cross-platform app linking, app indexing, and app-install prompting.
As we saw earlier, deep linking, with web compatibility and fallback is already alive and well in Android-land. So what's the point of these new app linking solutions? Well, they only make sense when you consider multiple platforms, that is, when you have versions of your app on multiple platforms. If you only have an Android app, then forget these services—you don't need them for deep linking.
But, even though there appears to be a decent solution out there already on at least one platform, there's a problem on some platforms, so there's a problem on all platforms. That is, at least until everybody gets on the same page. And everybody will only be on the same page when a single link can be shared that works across all platforms—just like on that other popular interconnected network thingy everybody's using.
Where these app linking services are useful is in providing a URL conversion service—basically a URL is converted to the iOS scheme to deep link to iOS apps, or to the Windows scheme on Windows Phone, or the scheme of whatever platform you are trying to link to, so that you can have one link that will work seamlessly across all platforms. Sort of like 'One Web', but for apps. Arguably these services are also adding value to some degree with by providing app indexing and install prompting solutions.
So, let's take a look at some of these services.
Facebook App Links
At Facebook's F8 conference in April last year, CEO and co-founder of Facebook-owned Parse, Ilya Sukhar, announced the launch of AppLinks.org, a new initiative aimed at making deep linking between native apps easier for developers. On their developers blog, Facebook explains: 'If your app has web content, people will be redirected to a web view of that content. If your app is installed there may be an open button that launches your iOS app. if your app isn't installed, there will be an install option to direct people to your app's App Store page. If your app is mobile-only (no web content) then tapping the shared link will either direct people to your app (if it's installed) or to your app's App Store page (if your app isn't installed).' Implementing App Links involves adding App Link meta tags to the web content associated with an app; for apps without a corresponding website Facebook offers a Mobile Hosting API, and implementing the App links API within the app.
How Facebook App Links works (Source: App Links documentation)
Facebook has partnered with a range of third-party services, amongst them Pinterest, Spotify, Hulu, Dropbox and Goodreads; this means that if you have those apps installed and click a link on Facebook, you'll be taken right to the app, rather than the website. If you don't have those apps installed, you'll be asked if you want to.
Beyond this, App Links is intended to be cross-platform compatible, and an open standard that's not bound to any particular platform. It's open source, and its reference SDKs mean that developers can implement them without going through Facebook.
As yet, however, App Links is far from any kind of ubiquitous standard. If you click on a Pinterest link within the Facebook app, it will launch the Pinterest app for you. Great. But let's say you're on Twitter, and click on a Pinterest link—you'll be taken to the Pinterest website, because Twitter doesn't support App Links yet.
The same goes for Google and Apple, meaning that if your app only has App Links enabled, then deep links aren't available directly from Google search or iMessage.
Twitter App Cards
Twitter has its own solution: App Cards. App Cards allow for both app install prompting and deep linking to content within an app. They won't, however, be of much use if you don't have a website to add the markup to—unlike Facebook, Twitter doesn't have a service to host the data you're marking up.
App Cards are a little bit like App Links, but without being able to bake it fully into your own apps. Twitter's solution doesn't solve the problem of app-to-app linking—while it will link to content deep within apps from links on Twitter, App Cards isn't really an attempt to solve the problem of building bridges in our app archipelago.
Google's App Indexing API
Google's App Indexing initiative is similarly limited—it allows Google to index apps (only Android apps, at that) just like websites, meaning that deep links to those apps appear in search results. Google has a solution for those apps that don't have a corresponding web presence in the form of the App Indexing API, but with its focus on Google search, App Indexing is again far from a universal solution to the problem of linking apps to each other and to the web.
However, combining the App Indexing API with Android's http-URL based deep linking delivers something of a satisfactory solution.
URX
Start-up URX is hoping to integrate the big three above, using something it calls omnilinks. Prefix any link with urx.io/, and it becomes an omnilink. No matter where the referring link originates—Facebook, Twitter, Google, mail, another app—the omnilink will route the user into the app if they have it installed, and the website, or app-install prompt, if they do not. For omnilinks to work, developers will need to register per-platform URLs for their app, and have the meta tags from Google, Facebook, Twitter or URX on their website. For how to do this, see here. To enable deep links, see here.
Quixey
Another start-up, Quixey, has taken a different approach, and is focused on indexing app content to make it searchable. At present, Quixey is an Android app that will perform two functions: semantic search in the app store ('Is there an app that'll recommend nearby restaurants?'), and search on your phone. For the latter function, Quixey will look through everything on your phone, including third-party apps, and return actionable results—if you search for a song, for example, it will return an option to stream the song on Spotify if you have that app installed.
The company is also behind the AppURL deep linking standard that helps developers map http URLs to pages within apps, which functions somewhat similarly to URX. But, although they provide an http to custom URL translation service, they state that "AppURL isn't really about transforming http URLs into custom schemes. AppURL is about standardising http as the all-platform URL scheme, thereby broadening the addressable web to include apps." As mentioned earlier, this is something Android already does out of the box.
Branch Metrics
Branch Metrics offers another single-link-for-all-platforms solution with its Contextual Deep Links product. This product offers a link transformation service similar to AppURL and URX, but allows arbitrary data to be sent with the transformed link, so that an app can be personalised with the data sent along with the link.
Deeplink.me
Deeplink is yet another single link solution, offering a URL transformation service, and provides deep linking without the need for an SDK, and with click analytics to boot. Deeplink.me is free for the first 30k clicks per month and costs up to $0.0002 per click after that.
Standardisation and the way forward
So, with all these different approaches, it would seem the time is ripe for standardisation. And there are indeed informal talks about the possibility of standardising a system of inter-app linking at the W3C Mobile Interest Group, albeit it as a somewhat reactive response to an already taking-shape app-linking landscape. Should one technique become widely adopted then the W3C work might be simply to rubber-stamp that approach. You can follow the public discussions here. But talks are at an early stage, and might not turn into anything, so don't hold your breath.
Not to mention, of course, even in the event of a standard being developed, it would require all the major mobile OS providers to be onboard to be truly useful. This brings us back to the nub of the problem. There is already something of a solution on Android. On Android, via the Intents API, an app can register itself with the OS to respond to any URL, even http ones. It seems that this is the simplest approach with the fewest moving parts, and being compatible with the web right out of the box makes it quite attractive.
This is a lot to take in, and it all seems unnecessarily complex for something like linking resources in a network, something the web got right back in the '90s. Facebook App Links are unlikely to become widely used because the barrier to entry is too high. Twitter App Cards don't fully solve the problem. URX, AppURLs, and BranchMetrics' Contextual Deep Links all have a lower barrier-to-entry than App Links, but have a dependency on a third-party server to resolve the links.
It seems like Google got it right with Android at the beginning: using http URLs to reference apps, which automatically falls back to web. Just add some meta tags to your web page, and you get some extra goodies! Perhaps the simplest solution to cross-platform and web compatible deep linking would be if the nice folk over at Cupertino relaxed their custom URL restriction and allowed apps to register themselves as able to respond to regular http URLs. Then, apart for the value-add that these services offer, such as app indexing, then there'd be no need to implement these workarounds. Just register a URL for your app, optionally add a meta tag to a corresponding website to help indexing, and bam! we're done. And we can all move onto a different problem. But until then, workarounds are where we're at.

The concentric castle was an enclosure castle with an additional curtain wall built, in close proximity, around the entire enclosure. In a sense, the concentric castle consisted of "walls within walls", where the inner walls, gatehouses and towers were higher than the outer walls, gatehouses and towers. This was so that soldiers fighting from the higher set of walls could shoot at the enemy and avoid hitting their fellow soldiers standing on the lower, outer set of walls.
Caerphilly Castle in Wales, begun in 1268, was the first concentric castle built from the start in the concentric style. The idea for this type of castle probably originated in the Holy Land, where great concentric castles, like Krak des Chevaliers, were built. Knights from Britain who fought in the Crusades would have seen these castles, and when they returned home, would have used the idea to build their own castles.
Some of the older castles which were originally enclosure castles or motte castles were eventually converted to concentric castles. Many of the great Edwardian castles were built from the start as concentric castles, and some scholars consider them to be the greatest of this type. One fine example is Beaumaris Castle, in Anglesey. Begun in 1295, it was never completed.


4-22-11 Queens and Pages Book Club met last night to discuss "The Postmistress" by Sarah Blake. I can't say that everyone loved the book. We found it interesting and enjoyed meeting the characters but we wanted more. As book clubs do, we went back and forth just commenting and adding to what others had said. In the end, we could not really come up with what the book was about, what was it trying to tell us? During our two hours, we discussed Will's premise that life was connected versus being random. Now, I think it is not, because randomness is also a pattern. We did not get into why both Harry and Will had to die. We discussed the war and the end of innocence. Frankie bringing the voices back to remind herself of "the truth." We wanted to hear Otto's wife's voice on the record and when we didn't, we hoped that she got back to him. Otto, the random German Jew in the midst of the American way of life did not have a place, still out of place where he was. The three characters: Emma had a profound wisdom but child-like view of the world. Frankie the world weary traveler, monied, wanting to get our attention, and Iris, a very strange, pragmatic woman who valued order above all. So why did she do what she did? All of us wanted to know more about the connections between these women and then what happended next. The ending did not come back to the beginning where Frankie started telling the story, it just ended.
Honestly – I wanted to love this book. I wanted to fall down in adoration and sing its praises and recommend it to everyone I know. I mean – look at it. The cover is beautiful. The title catching, simple, perfect. The premise a beautiful one, the story of two women who were unable to simply.. do their job, in a time when doing their job was one of the hardest things they could possibly do.
So on one hand, while there were moments I was extremely touched (mostly during speeches made and newscasts made), I felt as if Blake stopped just short of really getting somewhere with the character. I felt anger and frustration because I wanted to know these characters. I wanted to know Emma and Iris and Frankie. I wanted to know what made them tick. I wanted to know what made Iris do that incredibly crazy thing at the start and why Frankie felt so compelled to go to London to report the news. I wanted to know why Emma was separated from her husband for so long and how she handled the unexpected gift he left behind for her.
Instead I was left with a story that tried to tell too much in too short a time. Instead of focusing in and really delving into the characters we were only given a glimpse and that is why this book isn't getting the high praise I desperately wanted to give it. I have never felt so incredibly frustrated after reading a novel. There was so much potential here – so much that could have been told.
Excerpt: In THE POSTMISTRESS, Sarah Blake looks at World War II through the eyes of three distinct women all connected through means of private and public media. In many ways, THE POSTMISTRESS itself follows Frankie's conception of a news story as story and herein lies the beauty of the novel. Sarah Blake's novel does not follow the traditional concepts of a novel. THE POSTMISTRESS tells the story of World War II through the edges, in the lives of the three women and the events of their lives, often events that even seem unrelated to the larger scene playing out in the world. Indeed, the emotional impact of the story builds as Frankie stops trying to tell the truth of the war and listens to the voices of those around her. The "truth" of the war often emerges in the edges, in those stories told and unspoken by the press and even the characters to some extent. Although Sarah Blake draws on the history and historical figures of the times, THE POSTMISTRESS is not a historical novel filled with date and details from the history books. The reader will not find all the horrific details of the Holocaust or the London Blitz and yet, in telling the story through the edges of war scene, THE POSTMISTRESS allows the reader's imagination to enter the story. With the copious amount of World War II history and fiction published, readers undoubtedly are more than familiar with the main story of the War, and yet, THE POSTMISTRESS brings a freshness to the story. For this reader, THE POSTMISTRESS, is one of the first to tell the story of the trains from a viewpoint that truly engages imagination and emotion in both the details of individuals, sometimes even the characters for whom only a name and place is known, who might have experienced the events. Like Frankie's approach to the story, less is sometimes more. Equally, the conflicts and struggles of Emma Fitch and Iris James bring a whole other emotional dimension and texture to the story.
I have been a reader and a pet lover all my life. In between "having my nose in a book" and being somewhat of a tomboy, I played with and help raise dogs and cats. Growing up, behind my step-fathers combination grocery store, gas station and sporting goods store, my mother raised Chihuahua's and Pekinese dogs. We had several other kinds of dogs as well and I learned to love them as we took care of them but also because they simply loved me back. You know how it is, they love their people. At one time, we had fourteen dogs and cats, and a lot of newspaper protecting the floor, in that two bedroom apartment.
My interest in books also began early I think because my mother was always reading and interested in what was going on. I started with the traditional kids books and probably read "No Children, No Pets" about sixteen times. I recently mentioned this to a retired teacher in our book club who knew the book! Still!
So, I am interested in taking care of our pets. I am also interested in books and literacy. I would like to use this forum to talk about these two in terests and invite those readers out there to comment on what they are reading as well as what they think about what they are reading, suggestions and recommendations for other readers. Also, if you have a pet, stories, photos, please feel free to post. I have had in the back of my mind, for some time now, that we need an animal shelter to serve Brentwood and Discovery Bay. We welcome your comments.

50% of all diamonds have fluorescence emitting a light blue or sometimes light green colour in certain lights. This can only be seen in most cases under longwave ultra-violet light.
When diamond dealers started to try to secure a common set of colours so the diamonds could be explained to each other and traded more freely. The top diamond was called a Jager. This was the finest blue white diamond and the name comes from the mine in South Africa called the Jagerfontein mine.
They then realised that the light blue was fluorescence, as they appeared as different hues in different lights. The blue hue appeared as the result of concentrated ultra-violet rays of light in natural light. On realising this they changed the order of quality and the River diamond which had been the 2nd quality became the top stone. This was after diamonds found in rivers and alluvial deposits, as these stones were normally very clean and very transparent. The reason for this is the stones have been eroded out of the pipes they were formed in over millions of years and have been washed down stream. The lower grade diamonds have been eroded away over the years leaving only the best hardest purest stones intact.
This has now been changed to the grading system we have in place today. Ranging from D downwards. ABC has not as yet been used to grade the colour of the diamond in case a better-coloured diamond appears in the future.
Discussing this always reminds me when I was finding a diamond for Jonathon a client and hopefully more than this. He wanted a large marquise for his wife as a special present. So 2 days later I had found 2 stones that were very nice and great value for the money. The dealers I normally deal with did not have what we were looking for. I had found a couple of very good stones from an Antwerp dealer I have a lot of dealings with Ari a chap I have dealt with on a few occasions in Antwerp his family have been in diamonds for generations and have there own cutting firm.
I talked to Jonathon at lunchtime, after 2 days looking at diamonds your eyes become very sore. He then asked me to save one of the stones, which I went back to do after seeing the dealer with the stone.
I happened by accident to come across a D coloured stone with stunning proportions and no fluorescence. Just within the price range. The other stones were larger and most people would have chosen the larger heavier stone. Most of the time I would have recommended the larger stones but this stone was the best without a doubt there was no comparison. It was the best marquise in this particular large size I have ever seen. So an hour later and a bit more haggling the stone was purchased.
The American dealer was also one of the few dealers who really had the same passion for the stones as I do which showed in his stock.
Most of the time the fluorescence in diamonds cannot be seen in most lights. Some types of fluorescence can effect the stone very badly in certain lights. Also the fluorescence tells you how to mount the stone in some cases. I have seen stones that look stunning in white and natural light. Then when you walk into a room where one of the lights is slightly yellow (a dirty fluorescence tubes is the worse) the stone with certain florescence will take on a petrol colour and lose a lot of fire.
A badly fluorescence stone would not be set in a rub over setting as the stone would loose a lot of its fire and colour. I have seen a very expensive pink diamond set this way and then the seller wondered what had happened. I did not like to point out the problem at this point as he did not know about the fluorescence properties. I don't think his boss who was not hands on would have been too pleased.


It's one of the most popular games in the world, with 200 million registered players. You can play alone, with friends or with strangers online. And Prince Harry thinks it should be banned.
The Duke of Sussex's comments were in relation to Fortnite, the survival game-turned-global phenomenon. It's particularly popular with teenagers, who chat to each other from all over the world via headsets while playing.
"Where is the benefit of having it in your household?" he said.
He went on, "It's created to addict, an addiction to keep you in front of a computer for as long as possible. It's so irresponsible.
Fortnite is a game that involves killing other players, but the violence isn't anywhere near as graphic as in many other popular games. The aim of the game is to be the last survivor.
"The kids aren't just plugged into their devices, but to one another—barking orders, exchanging intel, passing joysticks, cracking jokes," she writes.
With the birth of Harry and Meghan's first child expected any day now, it's perhaps unsurprising that the duke is coming out with some firm parenting opinions. One thing's for sure, it seems unlikely that the sounds of Fortnite will be shattering the idyll of Frogmore Cottage any time soon!


We are in process of adding several features to the software. We'll continually update this page with upcoming changes planned for the software and features recently implemented.
We upgraded the underlying formatting engine to the latest version. This version included support for auto-scaling the page on output. Because the web pages are at 96dpi and the formatting engine default resolution was 120dpi, pages were always too small. We added into the conversion auto-scaling up by 120/96 = 1.25. Now your 8.5in x 11in page will be 8.5in x 11in. We tested through the samples and nothing look broke. If you have issues, contact us.
We have implemented support for the table caption element. As usual, all CSS stying is supported for this block level element.
If you are testing with local images (meaning you are testing on a server "localhost" and you have <img> tags who reference these local images), then you can set a formatting option that will base64 encode and include your local images for the remote server. Please refer to the new option embedLocalImages in the API Documentation. Do not use this option unless you are testing on your own localhost. It will fail if you try to embed images from remote servers that do not have CORS enabled.
In the future we will probably just have either version available to you, but you can download or even override these in your own JS code.
We have added support for the complete set of Google Charts! Take a look at the Google Chart Gallery page for many, many samples. We have added links in each page so that you can play and format charts on JSFiddle.
Go play on JSFiddle! @cloudformatter and many of the outputs are there in a simple starting template.
An <li> without a surrounding list tag like <ol> or <ul> will break the formatting. Yes, we know. Don't do that! A list item belongs in a list. OK, we fixed it.
None at this time. You can send us info at our contact page.
This new feature allows you to insert comment annotations into PDF output. You can see this new demonstration at Comments in PDF.
The SVG chart pages all now demonstrate a how you can use the software to format only a single SVG to another format. Over each of the charts you will see a new menu bar to just format that particular image.
We've added support for and modified the GUI to show how to use the software to generate other output formats including images like PNG, JPG anmd GIF as well as SVG, Postscript and XPS. We also added support for generating RenderX's own internal XML format which can be used in response to do many things in browser.
We have not gone through all the pages yet to ensure everything works everywhere. You may find that not every page renders correctly with XPS output because it would be required to ensure that these pages use only TrueType fonts. This is especially true with many of the SVG charts as we would need to edit all the samples to use a TrueType font. Also, Internet Explorer does a terrible job displaying SVGs.
If you notice something, let us know and will put it on the list to fix.
We'll be making some minor changes once we get a system up and running to test the new Microsoft browser.
We added support for horizonal rule in HTML.
Based on some recent requests, we implement support for HTML which contains align and cellpadding attributes. We would really prefer not to do everything like this, we will only do those especially requested.
We have changed the implementation to automatically add clear:both on any blocks without any clear specified. This seems to now match between the formatting engine which added nothing (so no clear). If you have float affected by this, please contact us.
Based on a recent request, we added support for some absolute positioning of content with position CSS and absolute, top, left, bottom and right values. See Absolute Positioning sample for more details.
To support some forms of floating content, we needed to add a special class you can put on your Bootstrap columns. This class is ignoreHeight. It doesn't have any effect in the HTML but is passed through to the backend. If this class exists on a <div> element, then the calculated height from the HTML passed to the backend is ignored. This is required because the HTML browser is not the same formatting engine of the solution. The height is ignored in the backend and the PDF formatter does it's job. This gives a much better result for floating content like Bootstrap col's.
The API has been changed to allow you to name the PDF that is returned from @cloudformatter. The API now include a filename option. Refer to the API documentation for more information and usage.
SInce the HTML can contain links in the page to other pages in the site in a relative way (aka: @href="/CSS2PDF.html"), the links inserted into the PDF would not be fully qualified. The solution now passes in the base URL of the page and will work with link href's that are rooted relative to the site.
We've added the functionality to use some small XML markup in your HTML page that can be used to set all the standard and any custom metadata in the resulting PDF as well as be able to control how the PDF is viewed in a supported viewer application.
See the PDF Properties sample page for all the properties in one place. There is also a separate PDF Bookmarks demostration.
The GUI now has a breadcrumb navigator allowing you to precisely select the structure you wish to apply style to. At this time the breadcrumb navigator diplays as part of the style panel, allowing you to move up the hierarchy to select structures like a <TR> to apply styles to.
We are implementing an online save and share repository for "nimbles". A nimble is a whole project -- design, XML and settings. nimbles can be versioned and their links can be emailed to us for support purposes.
These are some general fixes reported by users as bugs or enhancement requests.
Fields and Variable now support CSS styles applied directly to the field using the style pane. You no longer have to surround a field with a <span> element and apply style to it.
We integrated the latest version of Summernote.
We added @media directives so that you can generate from either mode of "Toggle View" and the field, logic styling is hidden.
