Q: Kali Linux in virtual hard drive .vmdk not working with VirtualBox I was trying to install Kali Linux 2016.1 32bit on VirtualBox on Ubuntu 16.04.1 64bit system. Every time I tried to install it after selecting graphical install it ended with giving an error of End Kernel Panel. So I downloaded and installed VMware player and created a virtual machine and installed Kali Linux on it.
Then I created a VM on VirtualBox and used the virtual hard drive .vmdk of Kali Linux created by VMware player.
Now whenever I select the Kali Linux on gurb boot menu it gives me the same End kernel Panic error but works fine with VMware player.
So any solutions for that I can solve it and run Kali Linux on VirtualBox.

A: The problem was solved after enabling virtualization from BIOS settings. Now it works.

Q: How to remove space between Bootstrap styled buttons and table? I have an outer div, inside it I've got 3 nested divs.
First one only got text inside, second got 2 buttons with .btn .btn-primary .btn-xs and `.btn .btn-danger
Third div only got inside a table with .table .table-condensed.
However I've got an unwanted space between buttons div and table, I've tried using margin and padding rules, also tried out !important but got not results.
This is how it looks like:

As it can be seen there's a space between the two buttons and the table below.
This is the markup:

Ingresa los puntos conocidos x,f(x)

                        <button type="button" id="btnAgregarPunto" class="btn btn-primary btn-xs">+</button>
                        <button type="button" id="btnEliminarPuntos" class="btn btn-danger btn-xs">Borrar</button>

                <input type="text" class="input-medium" placeholder="Aproximar" id="a">
                <button id="ok" type="button" class="btn btn-success btn-md">
                     Calcular y graficar
                </button>

Sabrina the Teenage Witch could be getting a reboot. Here's what the original cast look like now.
It's been 20 years since Sabrina the Teenage Witch first graced our screens and gee, doesn't time fly.
Featuring Melissa Joan Hart and the sassiest cat that ever did live, the early nineties to late noughties TV show was a weekly TV staple, inspiring fashion looks such as butterfly clips, velvet shirts and spaghetti straps.
Two decades on, it looks like Sabrina the Teenage Witch is getting a comeback, with the team behind Netflix's Riverdale keen to adapt the series for us modern, sci-fi-loving audiences.
Variety reports we can expect less whacky jinxes and more brooding horror from the remake, which will be based on the Archie Comics series, Chilling Adventures of Sabrina.
The series is being described as along the lines of Rosemary's Baby and The Exorcist, taking a darker, less awkward approach than the original series you fell in love with.
Sabrina the Teenage Witch: Where are they now?


Massachusetts's securities regulator charged two unregistered offshore firms for alleged foreign-exchange investment scams. One of the cases involves allegations against two individuals who were sanctioned by the Securities and Exchange Commission for an alleged $34 million hedge fund investing fraud involving 60 investors in 2007.
Credit Suisse Group is poised to buy fund of hedge funds Rock Creek Group. The two sides are in advanced talks and a deal could come within 10 days, AR magazine reports. A deal for Rock Creek would give Credit Suisse a substantial institutional fund of funds business. The Swiss bank's current fund of funds business, which has about $10 billion in assets under management, specializes in high-net worth clients, especially those who already patronize Credit Suisse's private bank.
The University of Michigan's endowment has invested $25 million in hedge fund Golub Capital. The initial investment in Golub's Premium Earnings Adjustable Rate Loans (Pearls) Direct Lending Program "will further balance the university's investment pool for working capital risk exposures and enhance returns by decreasing exposure to movements in interest rates and increasing exposures to corporate credit and investment manager value added," Timothy Slottow, chief investment officer of the $6.6 billion pension, said in an internal memo.


This paper tries to investigate project management knowledge expansion to a vertical industry - automation systems. First the literature carefully limits the scope of automation systems. It then gathers themes from literature review, map themes between vertical automation systems, PMI common themes and other technical / managerial disciplinary themes. The managerial and technical specific requirements are gathered, understood, and solution themes are proposed for each requirement.
This is Part 1 of the white paper.
Automation System is defined as the use of control systems and information technologies to reduce the need for human work in production of good and services. The author joined the Project Management Institute Automation Systems Community of Practice.
Also, automation system has been mostly perceived as a sub-branch of industrial engineering, which is a branch of engineering dealing with the optimization of complex processes or systems.
Industrial engineering is concerned with the development, improvement, implementation and evaluation of integrated systems of people, money, knowledge, information, equipment, energy, materials, analysis and synthesis, as well as the mathematical, physical and social sciences together with the principles and methods of engineering design to specify, predict, and evaluate the results to be obtained from such systems or processes.
How to conduct our research extension?
"Despite the broadening use of systematic approaches to project management, the majority of related literature is focused on a handful of industries construction, engineering, government, information technology, and utilities that have, until recently, been the traditional areas for project management."
Currently, the non-traditional project management areas include banking, pharmaceuticals, consulting, advertising, legal, health care, safety, and non-traditional manufacturing and industrial (automation systems) sectors (Kerzner, 2001).
(4) What do systematically identified articles tell us about project management in the non-traditional areas identified?
The author has conduct researches on different academic and industrial journals, and literatures. A precise scope and definition of automation systems needed to be identified first since it the term "automation systems" is board, vague, and is interpreted very differently by different people.
Just one quick search of the term "automation system management" can pull out literatures from a diverse set of professional area(s), such as chemical process, industrial and chemical engineering, control system, process control, medical systems, manufacturing systems, energy and environmental management, robotics, enterprise resource management, operation management, pharmaceutical process, etc.
Batch Process need further automation: Siemens systems; need advance control system & process control.
Integration Automation systems with ERP (Enterprise Resource Management) Solution Systems.
From the literatures, automation systems can be anywhere in agricultural commercial or industrial sectors. However, the main theme "how to automate correctly or better", itself becomes a vertical discipline alone. And this individual discipline itself may need skills, technologies, and knowledge's from many other area(s).
Since the idea of automation system project management is relatively new and vague, we need to first carefully clarify our problem statement that is similar to a demarcation. For example, imagine yourself as a project management, how are you going to manage your automation projects in order to achieve results? What do you want to achieve at the end of the day? How can we use "projects" to handle those challenges?
In general what are the common challenges, missions and visions, in automation systems across different industries, that operation management face and feel painful everyday? Are those challenges specifically happening in automation systems only? Can we use existing PMI knowledge to resolve those challenges? How can we extend the existing PMI knowledge to cover managing those challenges?
Another point is, according to PMI, a project is a temporary endeavour, having a defined beginning and end (PMBOK, 2009), while automation systems is business as usual (BAU or operations), which are repetitive, permanent or semi-permanent functional work to produce products or services. We have to identify project management natured tasks or programs that can add value or positive long-term change of the automation systems operations. Such activities can be related to hands-on system or engineering implementation and changes, processes/architecture/ practices changes, or management strategies changes.
We need to clarify what PM plays a role in each kind of activities. For example, a PM is not going implement a robotic arm somewhere in the manufacturing process line, but the PM need to know how to create and manage a project so that experts can perform the implementation. We are not going to document how to perform querying analysis, system optimisation etc, although this can be root cause of many automation systems common problems. We focus on methods or ideas that PM can contribute to the success of the automation system operations.
Step 2 - What are the themes from the project management literature in non-traditional industries?
What are the current disadvantage, limitations, challenges and add values initiatives we are facing in automation systems?
Improved programming and interfaces: Chemical process industries (CPI) Improved programming and interfaces are making it easier for end users to marry process control , asset management and diagnostic data.
Energy best practices, technologies in energy management . (Green). Long-term, comprehensive energy conservation plans are the foundation. Investment in metering and communications infrastructure is crucial. The importance of interoperability data context in Energy Management Systems is key.
Management programs are developed and maintained by multi-disciplined teams of individuals from various functions such as maintenance, engineering, production, financing, and management.
Operations research & Optimization techniques, Engineering economics, Supply chain management & Logistics, Systems Simulation & Stochastic Processes, System Dynamics & Policy Planning, System Analysis & Techniques, Manufacturing systems/Manufacturing engineering, Human factors engineering & Ergonomics, Production planning and control, Management Sciences, Computer aided manufacturing, Facilities design & Workspace design, Quality Engineering, Reliability Engineering & Life Testing, Statistical process control or Quality control, Time and motion study, Operations management, corporate planning, Productivity improvement, Materials management.
Assessing Pain; Multiple drivers of change ( upgrade & maintenance on multi-platform, interoperability system; compatibility); Missing functionality (system do not accommodate actual costing); System down (Availability) issues. No Process visibility benefits.
Change Management Issues (Transitional satisfaction, Rules of Engagement), Partner perspectives . Technology Vendor locked in . Original company who have handcrafted manufacturing system created a unique situation in that most staff were familiar looked for technology partner to offer process changes as the implementation progressed.
Training - increase awareness: (testing, commitment, feedback, micro-topics). Never enough; Trainer spend time training the stuff using real data.
> Assess whether there is a gap between the new needs and the current system's out-of-box capabilities.
> Determine if an alternative to modification or third-party integration is possible, or if modification or third-party integration can be postponed.
> Thorough testing that can uncover any problems and ensure a smooth kick-off.
Step 4 - What topics or themes from the project management literature may be generalized to non-traditional industries?
List of existing themes or soon to be existing themes.

Coffee News Club: Week of January 23rd


The Professional Beauty Association (PBA) will honor beauty industry veteran and innovator Sam Villa, co-founder of Sam Villa and Global Artistic Ambassador for Redken, with the North American Hairstyling Awards (NAHA) 2017 Lifetime Achievement Award, which recognizes outstanding contributions to the hair and beauty industry.
With more than 40 years' experience as a leading stylist, world-traveling educator, mentor and trailblazer, Villa quickly climbed the ranks and became a top name in the industry. The Lifetime Achievement Award recognizes significant achievements in technical skill, industry innovation and leadership. It is bestowed upon professional hairdressers who uphold the highest standard of the industry and whose efforts continue to shape the future of the profession.
The son of a barber, his life-changing moment occurred when, two weeks into cosmetology school, his father took him to a hair show where he would have the chance to see industry icons Vidal Sassoon, Christopher Brooker and Alan Benfield Bush take center stage. With the clear vision before him, Villa started making an unforgettable mark on the beauty industry.
"Thank you Professional Beauty Association. I am deeply honored to be the recipient of the 2017 Lifetime Achievement Award," said Villa. "I've had the privilege of finding great purpose through a lifelong passion to teach and of finding great joy in inspiring others to follow their creative path. The journey has been the reward for me. I have also had the good fortune of working with many great artists and mentors; I have an incredible career with Redken and a successful education and tool company with the Sam Villa brand. I have learned so much from the many talented individuals in our industry and feel lucky to be in a position to pass it on to others. To be recognized for a lifetime of work is truly humbling."
Villa will be honored at NAHA, which is taking place on July 9 at Mandalay Bay in Las Vegas as part of the 2017 PBA Beauty Week Show (July 8-11). The PBA will also announce the winners of its annual photographic beauty competition across 14 categories at the event. Finalists, who are some of the industry's most talented artists, will be announced for each category on May 10.

Daniel Radcliffe Has a Very Good Reason For Not Wanting to See Harry Potter and the Cursed Child
Radcliffe in his final outing as Harry in The Deathly Hallows Part 2.
Photo: Warner Bros.
Daniel Radcliffe spent years embodying Harry Potter—his time as part of a series, which has started branching out and spinning off (and wildly out of control, depending on who you ask) beyond him, is over. And while he's more than happy to look back at that time, he's not quite as willing to see at least part of its continuation.
Harry Potter and the Cursed Child, the "let's have a stage play for some reason" branch of J.K. Rowling's sprawling transmedia Potter-Empire is apparently where Radcliffe draws the line at experiencing it for himself. Set after the events of the books and focusing on Harry's son having adventures at Hogwarts (while his dad's off doing magic-cop business and being the world's worst helicopter parent), Cursed Child has been running across the world to acclaim for for two years now, but Radcliffe still hasn't seen it.
And not because of being busy with his post-Potter career, or because it might present a version of Harry's future that doesn't match up with the one he imagined while portraying the character. It's actually quite a simple one, as he told Seth Meyers on Late Night recently—it'd make for an awfully uncomfortable night of theater, while audience members crane their necks for a chance to see Harry Potter's reaction to, err, Harry Potter:
I'm probably not going to see it, I don't have plans to. Not because I think it would throw me into some sort of existential crisis of like, 'Oh, is that what happened?'
I feel like I would be being watched for my reaction. And maybe that is completely conceited and egotistical and people wouldn't care, but I do feel if I was just surrounded by Harry Potter fans, it would be a little odd.
It's a laudable reason—people pay huge amounts of money for tickets to see Cursed Child, and all the hubbub of crowds trying to get a look at Radcliffe and how he reacts to the events of the play wouldn't just be disruptive to his own view of the story, but the audience at large. Even if that audience at large would be a bunch of Potter fans mentally (or maybe actually) jumping for joy at the thought they get to watch a Harry Potter play with Harry himself alongside them. He'd be miserable, they'd be miserable, and well, no one actually wants that. And so Radcliffe is happy to sacrifice his own chance to see it, so that Potter fans can enjoy it on their own terms.
Maybe he could just read the script at home instead?

I saw the Cursed Child in London a few years ago. The play is terrible fanfic quality that was only redeemed by West End stage craft and compelling young lead actors.
Seriously . the play reminded me of the Harry Potter fanfic I used to read when I was 13. It was bad

New on DVD and Blu-Ray
Coldplay Live 2012
Posted by Eddie Pasa on November 14, 2012 in Concert Reviews, Movie Reviews / No Comments
(This review originally appeared at Reel Film News on November 14, 2012.)
Coldplay have spent the last year touring in support of their new album "Mylo Xyloto" to much critical and audience acclaim. Their live show, augmented by the use of illuminating wristbands (called Xylobands) given to the audience, redefined the relationship between band and observer by making them an active part of the proceedings. On Monday, November 19, they will unleash Coldplay Live 2012 upon the home media market; it is a concert film culled from several performances, dating all the way back to their 2011 Glastonbury show to recent shows in Paris and Montreal. To hype this release further, they added a one-night only theatrical screening on November 13th at theaters worldwide. Locally, the new Angelika Mosaic and a few others were host to this screening, with the theater being filled with fans old and young, all delighted at the prospect of being able to witness this snapshot of this moment in Coldplay's history.
It's tough being a Coldplay fan these days, with constant derision being heaped upon them and their fans. The "You know how I know you're gay?" sequence from the film The 40 Year-Old Virgin was just the first of many public tongue-lashings directed at Coldplay, with detractors left and right coming out of the woodwork to heap scorn upon them. With five studio albums and a relentless tour schedule, Coldplay have fired straight back with brilliant musicianship, heartfelt songs, and one of the most memorable stage shows ever to tour the earth. With Coldplay Live 2012, they are afforded the opportunity to show the world at large just how powerful their combination of music and imagery can be; we also get each band member's personal take on the tour and their own perceptions of themselves.
Against a backdrop of graffiti, laser lights, swirling confetti, and computer imagery, Coldplay's 90-minute exercise in showmanship starts from the very beginning, where the raucous "Hurts Like Heaven" blasts the audience into a frantic fervor. The Xylobands pop and flash, animating the audience and further enhancing the impact of the music. Chiefly caught on digital cameras by director Paul Dugdale, we are granted an upfront look at the band onstage, sweat and all, while they power through an ecstatic show at the Stade de France in Paris, which serves as this film's base performance. Songs captured during their appearances in Madrid, Montreal, the Hollywood Bowl, and Glastonbury are thrown in the mix to complement and contrast the Paris show. Every two or three songs, there's a break in the concert footage as each member provides a small narration about how the tour has affected them, and we are given a rare glimpse into their road lives and what their expectations are for these shows. It's also fun to see their playful moments; we see them driving around in stadium carts, playing soccer and ping-pong, and goofing off for the cameras. (Speaking of which, watch all the way past the credits.)
Musically, Coldplay are at the top of their game. Sonically tight and soulful, their songs are given ample room to mesmerize on their own; the additional imagery only adds to the experience of the song, making the song both aurally and visually memorable. The sound, mixed by longtime collaborator Rik Simpson, is sure to grab your ears and make you notice sounds that you may never have noticed before – the wobbly synthesizers in "Charlie Brown" are a fine example of this. Also, the crowd noise is never too overpowering, yet enough of it is there to make you feel like you're right in the middle of the Stade de France. Additionally, it was nice to hear the instrumental synthesizer/keyboard tracks to some of their various songs underpinning each member's narration.
This yearlong (and soon to be extended) tour has crossed the globe several times. Meticulously planned, rehearsed and executed, each performance ignites audiences everywhere through exuberance and excitement, pulling out every stop in order to make the fans feel appreciated and wanted. Fireworks are set off at their outdoor stadium and pavilion shows; the band moves into the crowd to play a few songs from the back of the auditorium; sing-alongs are encouraged; and it doesn't hurt that they come off as some of the most genuinely nice people to ever grace a stage. Coldplay Live 2012 captures the band at their best, and their best is good enough to beat all of the criticism any day of the week and twice on Sundays.

A seminar focusing on the needs of Armed Forces children and how they are supported at school is being hosted by Kingston University and Reading Force.
The event will see the University's teacher training students hear from policy makers and education and military professionals about issues facing Forces children, how they can be supported as they transition between schools, how to reach and engage Forces parents, and how to connect Forces children with their peers in school.
The seminar, organised by Kingston University publishing expert and founder and director of Reading Force Dr Alison Baverstock, will give guidance to trainee teachers with there being an estimated 130,000 children from Forces families in schools across the United Kingdom.
Dr Baverstock, an Army wife of 30 years, said: "We are really pleased Kingston University is providing this important opportunity to trial a contribution that we would like to see embedded nationally within teacher education programmes. Understanding the pressures of life in a Forces family will not only promote a broader understanding of their particular situation and needs within the education system, but also encourage empathy among staff, pupils and the wider community."
Kingston has been offering teacher training for more than a century and helps develop early years, primary and secondary educators for the future every year. The University offers an inclusive and supportive learning environment and goes above and beyond to deliver practical teaching methods to its students.
Reading Force gives books and special scrapbooks to Forces families and encourages them to share books and chat about them, whether at home together or separated by deployment or training, in which case they can read over Skype or Facetime. Taking part in Reading Force has proved to give families continuity, and helps to keep them close and communicating well.
The free event, being run by Kingston University's School of Education, takes place from 1-4pm on Friday 22 March in the Lawley Lecture Theatre at the University's Kingston Hill Campus. Places can be booked online.

### Our Fields, Our Forests, Our Rivers ### "No MVP"
Environmental groups are voicing opposition to a proposed natural gas pipeline that would cut across the Appalachian Trail in Virginia and require clearing a previously protected corridor of forest.
The Mountain Valley Pipeline would transport natural gas from northwest West Virginia to southern Virginia, according to The Wilderness Society, which published an editorial this week saying the pipeline would set a "dangerous precedent." That's because construction would involve clearing a 125-foot-wide section that would cross 3.4 miles of forest protected under the Forest Service's "roadless rule ― litigation meant to protect lands from road construction and logging.
"Some of the most iconic viewpoints, like Angels Rest, along the Appalachian Trail in Virginia will look out upon an ugly swath of destruction that dissects habitat and threatens waterways," the Wilderness Society writes.
Specifically, the pipeline would cross Jefferson National Forest in West Virginia and Virginia, pass through the Appalachian National Scenic Trail Corridor and cross the Appalachian Trail near Virginia's Peters Mountain Wilderness Area, according to the conservation group Wild Virginia.
Multiple environmental groups said this month that they refused to even comment on the government's Draft Environmental Impact Statement for the project because the draft has so many errors.
Other concerns include the public safety of residents, businesses and community organizations that would find themselves in the "blast zone" — a radius of about 1,115 feet around the pipeline where an explosion could have a "significant impact on people or property." In Newport, Virginia, that zone includes historically significant buildings as well as residents' homes, according to The Roanoke Times. Other Virginians have expressed fear about threats to groundwater, given the porous nature of the karst landscape of the state's Giles County where some of the pipeline is slated to go.
Pipeline supporters include Virginia Gov. Terry McAuliffe (D) and local business leaders, who say the project would create jobs, lower energy costs and potentially attract new business.
A public comment period on the project will run through December 22nd. Anyone can file a comment on the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission website, or call or write to FERC Secretary Kimberly Bose. The Appalachian Trail Conservancy has also put together a comprehensive guide on how to contact members of the Virginia and West Virginia legislature and representatives of the U.S. Forest Service.
Natural gas route would cut 125-foot path across 300 miles of West Virginia and Virginia forest—and isn't needed to meet demand.
Yes, the Appalachian Trail crosses lots of roads and infrastructure. But wilderness and untrammeled land are at a premium in the Anthropocene, especially in the U.S. eastern seaboard, and the increasingly rare experience of solitude is being threatened by a proposed gas pipeline.
The Mountain Valley Pipeline would run 300 miles across West Virginia and Virginia, carrying natural gas from Bradshaw to south of Lynchburg, where it would connect with another pipeline.
"Cutting through one of the most celebrated hiking trails in America, the proposed Mountain Valley Pipeline threatens wildlife habitat, recreational lands and the health of local Appalachia communities, while setting a terrible precedent of building energy infrastructure through our national forests," wrote the Wilderness Society.
It would also violate the 2001 U.S. Forest Service roadless rule, which blocks construction of roads and other infrastructure in the 58.5 million acres of national forest that have been inventoried as roadless.
The pipeline also is unnecessary. A study conducted in fall 2016 looked at the MVP project and another proposed 550-pipeline and found that current capacity is more than enough to last through 2030 at least. "Additional interstate natural gas pipelines, like the Atlantic Coast and Mountain Valley projects, are not needed to keep the lights on, homes and businesses heated, and existing and new industrial facilities in production." wrote the researchers.
Whether to allow the pipeline is up the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, which is taking comments through December 22nd.
I live in eastern Ohio, in the middle of Utica shale.
The drilling has ruined our lives here.
The pipelines and compressor stations are everywhere.
There are few local jobs and the politicians don't live here.
The noise comes into our houses and the energy companies could care less.


Dr. Rabia Malik provides a bespoke skin solution that is totally tailored to the individual. Her expertise lies in creating a holistic skin regime that incorporates treatments, products, and nutritional supplements to address the individual's skin concerns and to optimise overall skin health from the inside out.
Peels may seem daunting and somewhat scary, but Dr Malik will tailor her peels to suit each individuals needs; stronger components will only be used if the client's skin requires it. The beauty of the Pure Alpha and Beta Hydroxy acid peels and New Generation Combination Peels is that they stimulate new cells to encourage healthy exfoliation and re-modelling. This ensures skin has an even tone, colour and texture; that healthy glow we all long for.
This single use rolling device containing 200 fine sharp needles is passed over the skin following the administration of a topical local anesthetic. This stimulates the body's own collagen production to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, acne scarring, laxity and stretch marks.
Dr Malik's signature meso-peel combines medical grade micro-needling/dermaroller with the application of a customised Julia T. Hunter MD peel solution. Clients can achieve the best possible skin rejuvenation with the least downtime; perfect if you have a big event coming up or if you only have time for one treatment.
This treatment is ideally done every 6 months for skin rejuvenation/maintenance, or more intensively every 3-4 months to address lines, hyperpigmentation, dullness and skin laxity. The meso-peel involves the use of bigger needles requiring the application of local anaesthetic first.
The meso-peel lite uses smaller needles that do not require the skin to be numbed first.
Julia T. Hunter MD exfoliant and peel is used in the course of medi-facials to dissolve and clear blackheads, pigment, dead skin, decrease pore size, exfoliate, calm sensitivity and redness/vein issues. Your skin will be left looking and feeling refreshed and rejuvenated.
Customised medi-facials can also be used to clear, calm, and clean blemishes, as well as address scarring. If you suffer from similar skin issues, for example on the back and chest, this treatment can be used on the entire body.
Dermaplaning is an effective method of exfoliation. Using a scalpel blade, dead skin cells are removed from the epidermis (top layer of the skin). Along with exfoliating, dermaplaning also helps remove the unwanted velus hairs from the face.
Removing epidermal skin also allows products to penetrate more readily into the deeper layers. As a result, this treatment can be used to prepare the skin for chemical peels or incorporated into medical facials. Dermaplaning is most often used on patients with rough, dry skin, superficial hyper-pigmentation, mild acne scarring, or fine lines and wrinkles. The treatment results in a more refined, smooth, "glowing" appearance.
Usually, you can see a difference after the first treatment. Not only will you achieve smoother, brighter skin but this also helps remove peach fuzz and despite popular belief, the hair does not grow back thicker.
Designed to address fine lines, puffiness and dark circles around the eye area. This treatment incorporates the use of a Superficial alpha hydroxy acid peel, and is safe and effective for use around the delicate eye area. Initial application of the peel solution is followed by application of a customised serum containing a mixture of antioxidants and peptides to address your individual skin concerns. The eye revive is ideally done as a course of 3, one a week for 3 consecutive weeks, although it can also be done as a 'stand alone' treatment.


Insulinoma-associated antigen 2 (IA2) - detected in 50-70% of children and 30-50% adults with a newly apparent diabetes mellitus type 1, levels decline with increasing age.
In persons without diabetes, they have a high predictive value for the individual risk of type 1 diabetes. IA2 antibodies are most frequent in patients with HLA DR4/HLA DQ8 genotype.


Next Story Camera Deals of the Day: Canon DSLR & Lens Bundle Promo; Nikon DSLR & Lens Bundle Promo; Fuji X-E1 $499 and more!
In 2014, we look back at an early digital cameras like the Kodak Hawkeye from the late 1980s as if it's an antique, and a long-running lens standard like the Nikon F mount, launched in 1959, as a stalwart relic of an ancient past.
This newsreel clip produced by British Pathé in 1939 is as old as dirt by those standards. But it was already celebrating the 100th anniversary of the daguerreotype camera, widely considered to be the first camera for practical use.
By that point, photography had already come a long way: Astrophotography, microphotography, aerial photography high-speed photography, X-ray photography, and cinema were all a reality. Radio waves had increased the news value of photography, enabling shots to be transmitted around the world for print on the same day.
Somehow, it makes everything that's happened since then—the popularization of 35mm film, SLRs, digital cameras, smartphones, and wireless data—seem that much more impressive. Maybe someday we'll be watching the 200th anniversary montage on an interactive holograph.

The origin of proverbs.
According to Marvin "the origin of most proverbs is unknown. 'They were anterior to books,' says Disraeli, 'and formed the wisdom of the vulgar, and in the earliest ages were the unwritten laws of morality.' As a nation's proverbs predate its literature it is impossible to trace them to their beginnings. They spring from an unknown source, increase in volume as they roll on and are adopted by all as unconsciously as they have sprung into existence." He also points out that in youth we thought that the proverbs quoted by our elders were mere "ways of speaking", borrowed from others of their own generation. As we grew older and sought to discover from whence they came we were surprised to learn that many, if not all of them, had been used for centuries not only by our forbears but all over the world.[17]
Regarding the origins of the proverbs Meider, the famous paremiologist, states that:
Proverbs, like riddles, jokes, or fairy tales, do not fall out of the sky and neither are they products of a mythical soul of the folk. Instead they are always coined by an individual either intentionally or unintentionally, as expressed in Lord John Russell's well-known one-line proverb definition that has taken on a proverbial status of sorts: 'A proverb is the wit of one and the wisdom of many'. He also explains how a statement can turn into a proverb. He believes that if the statement contains an element of truth or wisdom, and if it exhibits one or more proverbial markers, it might "catch on" and be used first in a small family circle, and subsequently in a village, a city, a region, a country, a continent, and eventually the world.
The global spread of proverbs is not a pipe dream, since certain ancient proverbs have in fact spread into many parts of the world. Today, with the incredible power of the mass media, a newly formulated proverb-like statement might become a bona fide proverb relatively quickly by way of the radio, television, and print media. As with verbal folklore in general, the original statement might well be varied a bit as it gets picked up and becomes ever more an anonymous proverb whose wording, structure, style, and metaphor are such that it is memorable.
Furthermore, Meider mentions that it is usually quite difficult to trace the origin and history of a proverb in a particular language. So, studying European languages he proposes four sources for the distribution of European proverbs. Of course he clarifies this point that similar issues have occurred in the dissemination of proverbs in Asian, African, and other linguistic and cultural groups. Here these four sources will be outlined briefly:
1. There is no doubt that a considerable corpus of common European proverbs can be traced back to classical times (Greek and Roman antiquity). Since they were loan translated from the same sources, they exist in the many languages of Europe in identical forms. Little wonder then that exact equivalents of the classical proverb "Where there is smoke, there are fire" can be found in 54 European languages.
2. A second source of proverbs for the entire European continent and beyond is the Bible, whose proverbs date back to classical antiquity and early wisdom literature. As a widely translated book, the Bible had a major influence on the distribution of common proverbs since the various translators were dealing with the same texts. Several dozen biblical proverbs are thus current in identical wordings in many European languages, even though speakers might not remember that they are employing proverbs from the Bible.
3. The third source for common European proverbs is Medieval Latin. It must not be forgotten that the Latin language of the Middle Ages had the status f a lingua franca, and as such it developed new proverbs that cannot be traced back to classical times. Many Medieval Latin proverbs in their exact translations have spread to European languages, and they certainly belong to some of the most popular proverbs today. Many Medieval Latin proverbs in their exact translations have spread to European languages, and they certainly belong to some of the most popular proverbs today. A well-known example is: "Crows will not pick out crows' eyes".

Kanye West's 'Yandhi' album pushed back to November
By Nate Nickolai

It looks like fans of Kanye West will have one more reason to get up early on Black Friday.
Kim Kardashian West tweeted that her husband's latest project, "Yandhi," will drop on Nov. 23, almost a month after its initial release date Sept. 29. This will be West's third album this year, following "Ye" and "Kids See Ghosts," his collaboration with Kid Cudi.
The announcement comes days after West's strange "Saturday Night Live" performance, during which he performed in a Make America Great Again hat. After the show, he delivered a politically charged rant to boos from the audience, where West discussed his support for President Donald Trump, as well as his promise to run for president in 2020.
Nov 23 Black Friday YANDHI TRUST ME it is worth the wait 😱😘💦💰👑🔥🎥💋👅👏🏼💕😍🔌🤩
— Kim Kardashian West (@KimKardashian) October 1, 2018
The following day, West retweeted a photo mashup of himself in a bottle suit alongside his wife Kim Kardashian's famous champagne photo, before saying that "SNL" creator Lorne Michael had invited him back to host the show later in the year.
Trump tweeted in support of West saying, "I don't watch Saturday Night Live (even though I past hosted it). No longer funny, no talent or charm. It is just a political ad for the Dems. Word is that Kanye West, who put on a MAGA hat after the show (despite being told 'no'), was great. He's leading the charge!"

West first teased his new album last month with a mysterious Twitter picture, depicting a CD similar to the design of 2013's "Yeezus," albeit with a different colored strip of tape on the cover. West also accompanied the post with word "Yandhi" and the initial release date, set to coincide with his "SNL" performance.

West later confirmed the album with another tweet, in which he officially announced the release of the album "Yandhi." He acknowledged that it would likely debut behind Lil Wayne's "Carter V" album. "We know it will come in number 2 to my brother Lil Wayne and that's lovely," he wrote on Twitter. "The universe needs Ye and Wayne music at the same time."
West previously told Fader that songs from "Yandhi" would featured contributions from Ty Dolla $ign, 6ix9ine and XXXtentacion.

I have the old stupid two speed wiper switch for the one speed motor – tried to connect the Hella interval switch like I did in the Eighties which failed dismally – mounted a long toggle switch on the plastic wiper cover to switch with my finger tips from the steering wheel – lost the parking action I had before . . .
Is the parking action created by the motor, or by the switch??? If anyone out there could enlighten me about the proper wiring (red, blue, black, white) I would enjoy the rain a lot more! Even if the spindles are still leaking like active water pumps. What if the leaking water has damaged the wiper switch – just thinking . . .

James "Jimmy" Wallington (15 de septiembre de 1907 – 22 de diciembre de 1972) fue un locutor y presentador de radio de nacionalidad estadounidense.

Biografía
Nacido en Rochester, Nueva York, sus padres eran Lewis Eugene Wallington, de Ontario, Canadá, y Jane Whaley. Tras hacer unos pocos papeles cinematográficos en Hollywood, en los años 1940 y 1950 fue locutor en varios programas radiofónicos de gran popularidad.

Entre los programas en los que participó figuran Texaco Star Theater, con Fred Allen (1941–44), y Texaco Town, con Eddie Cantor. Como ocurría con la mayor parte de los locutores, Wallington anunciaba a la estrella del show, y después leía los anuncios comerciales de los patrocinadores. Además, a menudo él tenía algunas intervenciones cómicas. Cuando los shows radiofónicos pasaron a la televisión en los años 1950, él trabajó como locutor en el nuevo medio.

En la televisión, Wallington llegó a ser una estrella en California haciendo anuncios para Life Insurance y otras empresas. Él acabó su carrera profesional en la radio como locutor de Voz de América en el servicio Worldwide English.

Wallington se casó cuatro veces. Su primera esposa fue Stanislawa Butkiewicz, con la que se casó en 1929, divorciándose ambos en Reno (Nevada), el 10 de julio de 1934. Su segunda mujer fue Anita Fuhrmann. Se casaron el 18 de agosto de 1934 en Newark (Nueva Jersey). Anita era una de las componentes originales de las Radio City Rockettes. Ella falleció el 7 de mayo de 1935 en Brooklyn, Nueva York. Su tercera esposa fue Betty Jane Cooper, con la que se casó el 12 de agosto de 1936 en Grosse Pointe (Míchigan). Su cuarta mujer fue Erna Gilsow.

Jimmy Wallington falleció en el Condado de Arlington, Virginia, en 1972.

Por su trabajo radiofónico, a Wallington se le concedió una estrella en el Paseo de la Fama de Hollywood, en el 6660 de Hollywood Boulevard.
