Since its inception in the 70's we have heard a lot about e-invoicing and the benefits that 'going electronic' can bring to a business. Somehow though e-orders and O2C automation (order to cash) haven't been given the same attention, and I, for one, think it's time that changed. So, let's turn the spotlight on to e-orders.
Moving to an e-ordering system can bring significant benefits to an organisation, the financial savings alone can be incentive enough but the benefits are much wider than that. Hang on though, I am getting ahead of myself.
What does traditional ordering look like and how do e-orders and O2C automation work?
Well, we know that the lack of integrated front-end, customer facing systems (i.e. e-commerce and multi-channel enabled systems) with up-to-date order-fulfilment-delivery processes are the main reasons for lost sales opportunities, lower gross margin return on investment (GMROI) and lower customer satisfaction rates.
So, for suppliers/vendors, who receive orders via multiple channels (web shop, branch, rep, email, fax, paper etc.) and who are working across different sales and fulfilment systems with manual data entry from one to another – we know it's a headache. Capturing the sales data to be able to fulfil and despatch the order not only takes time, but also results in human processing errors, which cost the business time and money to fix, and negatively impact customer satisfaction levels.
Let's be honest, what we really want to do is be able to raise an invoice as quickly as possible and we can only do this once we have fulfilled the order and despatched the goods, so why aren't more sales 'back office' processes' automated because we know that streamlining processes speed up the processing times and reduces errors, which means cost savings, better customer satisfaction and immediate invoice revenue.
You place an order – this could be via a website, email, fax, or phone. For large customers, it is typical to have this automated and driven by the back-office inventory demand system which place the order within their own system; this order is then sent out via EDI, email, fax, or paper to the supplier.
The order is processed by the supplier / vendor – and this is perhaps the most surprising bit – even where orders have been made online, this part of the process can still involve manual data entry from the web form to the order system. And of course, orders via email, fax and phone all need to be manually entered.
The order is fulfilled and invoiced – again these steps often require manual data entry in to different systems to complete the sale.
It's clear that there are so many inefficient steps in the process!
E-order systems are really complicated, aren't they?
To be fair, some e-order and O2C automation systems are complicated. But they needn't be. For example, email is used extensively by most companies. An e-order system based on email, where buyers send PDF orders via email is already commonplace.
However, many suppliers must then manually key the data from the PDF in to their own order system. With the right technology though the data within the PDF can be automatically processed without any human intervention, and this brings significant benefits without the need for any big technology infrastructure overhaul.
In fact, using this simple approach to e-orders, Hilti (a leading construction products and equipment manufacturer and supplier) reduced the time taken to establish e-business arrangements by over 80%, at no cost to customers, and made overhead savings on its administration of purchase orders and other processes.
In fact, it's often easier to use a third-party system to receive and process your orders, as it offers a lot more flexibility and can deliver the data in a format that your host sales order processing needs – using the standard pre-configured inbound order formats; to make a change to established software is often cost prohibitive and never sits well with the IT team.
For others, use of a marketplace or customer centric portal that enables a company to work electronically with all its business partners is also an option; but again, this requires a large investment in time and money and a more strategic approach that aligns to your sales strategy.
It's time that companies started taking e-orders seriously and started automating them. Whether it's a simple, or more complex, integrated solution, it will deliver slicker processes, fewer errors, substantial cost savings, and more importantly for your cash flow a real impact to your bottom line.
e-Orders can deliver companies just as many benefits across the business as e-invoicing; it's a vital step in an automated process that is often overlooked because 'we have always done it this way', so shouldn't you be helping your sales administration teams focus on working with your customers rather than inputting their orders?
No longer should e-ordering be lurking in the shadows; now is its time to shine.

Musician Series: Johnathon Norris
In this interview with Canadian songwriter Johnathon Norris he shares what inspires him, the biggest challenges facing artists today, and more.
Johnathon Norris, Singner/Songwriter
Johnathon is a musician from Canada. He started playing music when he was 16 and has been in multiple bands. Now, he is branched off to a solo career and does a lot of recording in his personal studio from his home. He is mainly a songwriter and performs all of the compositions himself. He love creating and also producing music.
What inspires you to be a musician?
I have always loved music since I was a kid. It really started to get a hold of me around the 7th grade when I would get albums for my birthdays and Christmas. Smashing Pumpkins, SilverChair, Oasis all were major parts of my adolescence and I have tried to continue in that vein of music to capture the same magic that would now be considered classics. I would like to create music that can stand the test of time and really make you feel something emotionally.
What is the best part about being a musician?
The best part for me is the entire creative process. You basically start with something as simple as a tune in your head and by the end you have an entire song with multiple parts and dynamics. Writing music and it manifesting into something tangible is the ultimate satisfaction as it allows you to express yourself in a not so straightforward way.
What is your favourite venue for gigs?
Last year I had the opportunity to play at a historical theatre located in Ontario called The Sanderson Centre. This venue has had many important figures perform over the years and it was extremely special to be able to perform on the same stage that some of my idols have played on.
What is the biggest challenge you have as a musician today?
I'd say the biggest challenge is definitely getting people to hear your music. So much effort goes into creating a song or an album, sometime years of your life and it is a challenge to get people to spend 4 minutes to listen to it. It takes a lot of dedication and a lot of patience but will pay off in the end if you are persistent.
Do you think the industry is changing for the better?
The industry is always changing. Whether it's for the better is still yet to be determined. The market is so saturated now as making music is so accessible to everyone with the way computers are and the internet. But on the other hand there is a lot of good stuff coming through you just need to look for it.
What are the three tools you could not live without?
1. Obviously my guitar. This is where the song starts and is the first tool you go to when starting to write a song.
2. Music. Listening to music is a huge motivation for me to create my own. It has always been a huge inspiration to me.
3. Home Studio. Without my own recording set up I would not be able to capture the music that I create. Even if it's just quickly laying down a riff or a melody.
Are there any new apps you have discovered and would like to recommend to other musicians?
One app I use a lot is Voice Record. It's basically a personal recorder on your phone. It's great for when you 't have access to a computer but you need to record something before it disappears from your mind.
How do you find opportunities to gig?
Most of the time it's from online. Just stay social and try to always keep yourself in the loop. Follow local restaurants and bars and don't be afraid to reach out and ask for opportunities. Also talk to as many people as you can about what you do and what you are trying to achieve.
What are your fondest musical memories? Eg. In your house? In your neighbourhood or town?
I remember my first band in high-school we booked our first gig. It was a small dance club in our hometown. We were so excited. They put our band name "Ages of Yellow" on the marquee sign out front. We played and the club ended up closing down a few weeks later. Our name stayed up on the sign for years. It was great advertising.
How do you reach your fans?
Mainly by social media. Youtube, Instagram and Facebook. Also word of mouth does a lot. Tell every person you come across about your music and where to find it online.
What is it that compels you to publish music?
It's something that will last forever. The music you make will still be here long after you're gone. And your kids or grandkids will still be able to hear your voice and remember you.
What are your thoughts on streaming services?
It's the way it is now and it's never going back. It's here to stay so you might as well embrace it. The majority of people don't buy music anymore they stream it. Get on some playlists and post links to your stuff every chance you get.
What is something you wish you had known sooner?
I wish I had realized time was going to be my biggest obstacle. I started music when I was 16 with high hopes of making it my career. Then as you become an adult, life sort of hits you and takes over. Music kind of goes to the aide and the next thing you know 20 years has gone by and you decide you want to get into music again. The amount you could have accomplished during that span is mind boggling.
Are you actively looking for record labels? Do you think it could be a good option?
Yes I have sent out many e-mails to labels probably 30 or more and do not even get responded back to. Nobody wants anything to do with you until your wanted by someone else. You have to probe yourself first if you want to get signed.
How do you balance your music with other passions - partner, children, job?
I try to spend any free time I get doing music. After work, late at night. You have to make the time for it if at the end of the day you are serious about having a brand and a product.
We hope you enjoyed reading Johnathon's story and experiences as much as we did. To learn more, follow him on Instagram at https://www.instagram.com/77ghosts/?hl=en

Dragon Age franchise has "console future"
BioWare suggests Origins may stay on PC.
Updated on 5 August 2008
BioWare co-founder Greg Zeschuk has said he sees a "console future" for the Dragon Age "franchise".
"PC for now is what we're focusing on, but there is a console future for the franchise," Zeschuk told MTV Multiplayer, echoing - and slightly clarifying - what he said during an EA press conference at E3.
"We haven't really talked about what that's going to be, but one thing we're focused on. As folks probably have seen in regards to Mass Effect on the PC, whenever we do a platform choice, we're very definitive and very specific. We don't splash it across all the platforms."
Dragon Age: Origins, unveiled proper at E3 last month, met with rather underwhelming receptions.
The game, Zeschuk maintains, returns to BioWare's roots where sitting back and reflecting on the action is preferred to cinematic immersion akin to Mass Effect.
We're told, once again, Origins will be "brutal", "harsh", "gritty" and "realistic", yet in our first impressions the overall impression was "generic".
Zeschuk is also confident the game will be out in early 2009, despite relatively little actually being known about the game - a deliberate decision on BioWare's part.
"Typically we show our games many, many times at E3 over and over again. And we're not [this time]. We showed it once a while back and went dark on it purposely to get the technology and the game going. It's not that far off. It's very exciting," said Zeschuk.
We hope so.

Neil Olshey on Damian Lillard Trade: Blazers 'Will Never Be Receptive' Despite Rumors
Rob Goldberg@@TheRobGoldbergTwitter LogoFeatured Columnist IVSeptember 27, 2021
Sam Forencich/NBAE via Getty Images
Damian Lillard has been the subject of trade rumors throughout the offseason, but Portland Trail Blazers general manager Neil Olshey said Monday that the team will "will never be receptive of moving Dame."
Lillard has spent his entire nine-year NBA career with the Trail Blazers and is signed through the 2024-25 season.
There was still speculation during the summer that the guard would want a fresh start after Portland lost in the first round of the playoffs for the fourth time in the last five seasons.
Chris Haynes of Yahoo Sports reported the team's inability to build a contender around him and the backlash following the hiring of head coach Chauncey Billups might eventually push him out the door.
The Philadelphia 76ers were reportedly especially interested in Lillard as part of a potential swap with Ben Simmons, per Shams Charania of The Athletic, but the Blazers instead plan to build around the superstar.
Lillard has been one of the NBA's top offensive weapons during his career while earning six All-Star selections. He ranked third in the league with an average of 28.8 points per game last season after averaging 30.0 per game in 2019-20.
The production has helped the Trail Blazers reach the playoffs in each of the last eight seasons.
Though a Lillard trade would likely signal a rebuild, keeping him should be enough to help the Blazers stay among the top teams in the Western Conference.
Portland will hope retaining its core from last year while adding veteran depth pieces like Larry Nance Jr., Cody Zeller, Ben McLemore and Tony Snell will be enough to take the next step toward contending for a title.


For more than twenty five years Shelby Lee Adams has been photographing in Appalachia, documenting families residing deep in the Kentucky mountainside. His unrelenting dedication to this region is a testament to his desire to bring honor to people he has come to call family.
Shelby Lee Adams was born in Hazard, a small town in eastern Kentucky. Although he grew up in the back seat of his father's car, moving from place to place, Hazard was where he settled, living with his grandparents while he attended high school. Trapped between two world -- country kids and town kids -- Adams never fit in, immersing himself in photography books and anything affiliated with the arts. This was the mid 1960s and the Peace Corps had a great interest in the poverty sweeping the people of Appalachia. When a film crew visited his home town, Adams naturally wanted to help, taking them to his meet his grandparents and his uncle so they could film their daily lives. When the media described them as malnourished and poor, his friends and family felt betrayed. This devastated Adams, who felt he had misled the people he so dearly loved -- an experience that had a profound impact on him.
It wasn't until he left Kentucky to attend college that he understood the lessons he learned from the country people. A summer job working at a mental institution helped shape his understanding and compassion for people deemed unfit -- a lesson which helped his artistic growth. While attending junior college, Adams decided he wanted to go to art school and was accepted at the Cleveland Institute of Art. Finally surrounded by artists, he experienced a complete culture shock, rejecting his Appalachian upbringing, telling people he was from Cincinnati.
Embarrassed by his past, Adams stayed away from Hazard and his family, searching for a new identity.
By the second year in college, Adams was exposed to the FSA photographers who documented the lives of people living in poverty. Although initially defensive about the work, Adams submerged himself in documentary books, showing them to his family on a summer visit. His uncle, a county doctor, took him on house calls to meet people similar to the ones in the books. More than twenty five years later, Shelby Lee Adams is still visiting these people, returning year after year, documenting their lives.
Whether documenting a home funeral, a family gathering on the porch or the worn faces of poverty, Adams's images are so raw we want to both turn away and stare. The humanity in their faces, the comfort of their stance, are indications that an insider is showing us a reality few people would ever see. That Adams has returned to the same families for years is a testament to his dedication to show their painful existence while maintaining their dignity. Although he now lives in Massachusetts, Shelby Lee Adams's heart is forever in Appalachia.


One serious and devastating possible result of a car accident is a traumatic brain injury. In fact, over half of all reported traumatic brain injuries are the result of a car accident.
Traumatic brain injuries occur from any force that penetrates or fractures the skull. Therefore, the skull does not necessarily need to be fractured in a car accident for a TBI to occur. The brain may collide against the internal skull bone from the force of the accident, which can cause bruising or bleeding inside the brain that is not apparent at the time of the injury.
Penetrating injuries and closed head injuries are the two main types of traumatic brain injuries. Penetrating injuries occur when a foreign object enters the brain and causes damage to specific portions. Closed head injuries are caused by a blow to the head, such as the skull hitting the windshield or steering wheel in a car accident.
In addition to physical problems, traumatic brain injuries can result in communication and cognitive issues. A person with a traumatic brain injury may experience headaches, hearing loss, seizures, or vomiting. Certain sensory functions are also commonly affected, including sense of taste and smell. A traumatic brain injury victim may also experience coordination issues.
A person suffering from a traumatic brain injury may also have difficulty speaking due to weakened muscles of the lips and tongue.
Cognitive issues are also typical. Traumatic brain injury victims frequently have very little self-awareness and may suffer from memory problems. While memories of events before the accident are usually unaffected, problems with recent memory are common. It is also difficult for a person with a traumatic brain injury to pay attention and to perform higher-level tasks such as long-term planning and goal setting.
If you have suffered a traumatic brain injury due to a car accident, it is wise to seek out the counsel of an experienced Tennessee personal injury attorney. An attorney can help you to assess your options and to pursue possible compensation.


It's been an eventful weekend for us with the weather being so nice. We had a great turnout for our first gig at The Swan in Woolston on Saturday and had the pleasure of meeting some of our loyal UK fans.
As a result we have been inundated with messages and comments from everyone who attended and can't thank you enough for all your kind words. Its things like this which makes it worth doing what we do.
This week sees the return of our producer Clyde Ward to the UK which means we'll be back in the studio recording (and generally being hurled abuse). It was Mr Ward's birthday last week and we unintentionally forgot to wish him on this special day. Hopefully he has forgiven us by now (which we very much doubt) but for last week HAPPY BIRTHDAY WARDY!!!
And finally, www.officialsummers.com has hit PAGE 1 on Google. We couldn't have done it without all you guys so keep up the good work and keep spreading the word about Summers.

Today I'm starting to feel a bit better. I had some sour cherry protein yoghurt from Arla in my fridge and also a small fruit box so it was perfect for my lunch today. Minimal effort and it actually looked quite pretty. Spending my day in bed looking at Hanna Öbergs videos to find inspiration for new workouts. I'm so ready to run to the gym and start eating beautiful healthy meals, at least mentally. I think my body needs a few more days before I try out my planned HIIT session (high intensity interval training). It seems like such a good way to work out so I can't wait to try it.

Talabani: US must stay for three years
US troops should stay for up to three more years in Iraq to allow local authorities to build up their own security forces, the Iraqi president says.
Talabani says the media has misrepresented Iraq
At the start of a week-long visit to France, Jalal Talabani said on Thursday that his country was not in a civil war. He also accused the media of focusing only on negative stories.
However, he said international terrorists were still concentrating all their efforts on Iraq which meant the country needed outside help to defeat them.
Speaking at a conference in Paris, Talabani said: "We need time. Not 20 years, but time. I personally can say that two to three years will be enough to build up our forces and say to our American friends 'bye bye with thanks'."
Outside support
Talabani was due to meet Jacques Chirac, the French president, later on Thursday.
The Iraqi president said he wanted France to be actively involved in the rebuilding of the country and to help train Iraqi forces.
Public pressure is building in both the US and Britain to withdraw troops from Iraq.
George Bush's Republicans face possible loss of control of Congress in November 7 elections, with dismay over his Iraq policy a critical factor in voter intentions.

Italy Government on verge of collapse as Renzi party quits
Posted by Vento on 14th January 2021 in International News
Italy's government led by Prime Minister Giuseppe Conte risks collapsing in the middle of the Covid-19 pandemic after a junior coalition partner pulled out.
Former Premier Matteo Renzi said his Italy Alive party is quitting the coalition, attacking Conte for failing to do enough to tackle the country's problems. Though the party is tiny, Conte relies on it to maintain his majority in parliament.
Renzi's decision sparks a government crisis which could last days or even weeks and has no clear solution in sight.
After accepting the ministers' resignation, Conte could step down himself. That would likely trigger a new round of talks among parties and lead to another Conte government, a new premier or a technocratic administration. Snap elections, although a risk, appear unlikely for now.
'Act of Courage'
Pulling out at a such a crucial moment for the country amounts to "an act of courage," Renzi said at a news conference in Rome. Conte's government has not done enough to resolve problems from education to infrastructure, as well as the virus, the ex-premier said.
"We are not playing," Renzi said, addressing critics who've accused his party of political posturing during weeks of build-up to the current crisis. "Democracy is not a reality show."
Investors have reacted to the heightened uncertainty. German bund futures rose about 20 ticks to their highest of the day after the announcement, while Italy Treasury bond futures fell. The cost of borrowing for the Italian government has risen modestly in recent days on concerns of political instability.
The timing of the crisis for Conte could hardly be worse, with Italy battling a worsening pandemic and a recession. A cabinet meeting scheduled for Wednesday at 8:30 p.m. is due to discuss new virus-related restrictions, while on Thursday Conte is set to sign off on a plan to widen the country's deficit by about 24 billion euros ($29 billion).
Renzi said that his party is still willing to back plans for more deficit spending and any measures necessary to tackle the pandemic. He didn't rule out a new government led by Conte but said Italy Alive won't support any coalition including Matteo Salvini's League, an anti-migrant, anti-EU opposition party.
Nicola Zingaretti, head of the ruling Democratic Party, said Renzi's move was a "huge mistake."
Presidential Role
With Renzi's two ministers now exiting the government, the focus turns to President Sergio Mattarella, who met with Conte earlier Wednesday. The president's role, largely ceremonial, also includes responsibilities for safeguarding the country's political stability.
If Conte opts to resign, he could be given a mandate by Mattarella to try to forge a new alliance.
Alternatively, the premier could seek a parliamentary vote of confidence. But if he fails to win over enough centrist and unaffiliated lawmakers to replace Renzi's Italy Alive, the government would become a caretaker administration with limited powers.
The existing coalition parties — including Italy Alive — could also try to revive their alliance under a different premier, such as ex-European Central Bank President Mario Draghi. They'll likely explore a range of options to avoid a new election, as surveys show the Salvini-led center-right would likely win if the country is forced into a snap vote.
"The impact of Renzi's move on Italy's fragile economy will depend on what will happen next," said Lorenzo Pregliasco, a political analyst at YouTrend. "A snap vote, the worst scenario for investors, remains unlikely at this stage."
The crisis couldn't come at a worst time for Italy.
Renzi had been dialling up the pressure on Conte since late last year, slamming the prime minister's plans for managing and spending European Union rescue funds. Renzi says the plan has been improved following his demands, but he's been insisting on further conditions, including that Italy tap a European Stability Mechanism credit line for health spending.
"The real issue is, should we spend more money on health with the ESM?" Renzi said following his announcement on Wednesday.

Hi! After enjoying all the pet photos on your blog, I couldn't resist. I had to send you a couple myself. These are my two Frenchies. They think the couch is their bed even though they have dog beds all over the house. And I don't normally let them on the antique (white!) chair but I couldn't resist posing him on it for a photo.
Tonight I was getting caught up on all of your fabulous postings and had to write — I just love your "creatures on furniture" series and thought I'd send you both a few of my pups, Bear and Daisy — just for fun.
I am a 43 years old nurse educator and manager, living with two cats in Istanbul. I used to have an other tom cat who was died last November in his age of 14. I decided not to have a cat at the beginning. I moved my home to the apartment just above my previous one in last July. Meanwhile I was looking at your photos with cats. I told myself I need a cat in my new flat. I was surfing the web side about free pet adoption. I found a nice lady. She is a Van swimming cat. One is blue and other is green. She is not % percent but still, she had two colored eyes. The advertisement about her, says one year old pregnant van cat. I decided to adopt her. In next telephone call, her owner told me she delivered 1 kitten. 2 days later They were in my apartment. Now the kitten is 2,5 months old. By the way I am living a very modest furnished apartment. I am still working on it. I am sending a few photos about my girls first. They were taken my Nokia mobile phone.
Our whippet rufus will come running everytime i take out the camera to photograph something in our apartment, so i have so many pictures of him posing on our furniture. Here are a few – love the blog!
Since I love your blog so much, and since you guys love dogs so much I wanted to send you pictures of my adorable dogs in LA! I hope you and your readers love the pictures as much as I do.
I saw your "Monday's pets on furniture" feature and I thought I'd send you a picture of The Mini, a 5 year-old cat with a big attitude. He is the star of my own blog every Tuesday as I publish a special feature called "Mini Mardi" (Mini's Tuesdays). He loves to take dramatic poses on my green velvet wing chair from Bombay (Bombay.ca).
Every week I see the photos and think that I really need to send some to you! Back in the days when he was allowed on the furniture, Ridley made himself strangely comfortable.
Here is our little puppers Iggy (or more formally Iggy Juilius Huggleman) hanging out in his favorite spot on the back of the sofa. I think it makes him feel big.
Because trimming this and stripping this took me the whole freaking weekend, I have SO many things to get done today before I go back to work tomorrow. And this being a holiday and all, I think I will call it a day with this post. Happy labour day!
OMG How cute!!!!!!!! I love these pictures. They are also very artistic and speak for good photographers. And these dogs are simply adorable. I love this post!
re: flickr pics – that door looks kind of cool just like that!
re: pets on furniture…very adorable! I'd send Chico pics, but he's not allowed on the furniture. I'd have to hide a nanny cam to catch him sneaking up on the couch, which he does if we don't put stuff all over it when we go out.
love this! i will have to send you a photo of my little brooklyn on our furniture!
i love loveee this pictures, i love dogs more than cats but theseones are so amazing, there are beautifully gorgeous. i have a dog a poodle one, he is nice too…greetings from Temuco, Chile.
This cats is so perfect; I have one cat too, his name is Sushi and I probably post in my décor blog his photo with a furniture asap.
Out of all of the photos in my Flickr-stream, this one has the highest hit count.

Washington, DC — The Commodity Futures Trading Commission's LabCFTC today released, "A CFTC Primer on Virtual Currencies." This primer is the first of a series that LabCFTC will release to provide fundamental, and essential, information about financial technology (FinTech) innovation.
"LabCFTC believes that promoting education, understanding, and regulatory clarity around emerging technologies can help facilitate market-enhancing innovation and guard against risks," said the Director of LabCFTC, Daniel Gorfine, adding, "As people worldwide try to understand and wrap their heads around the virtual currency ecosystem, we thought it timely and important for our first primer to help explain the space, identify how developments involve the CFTC, and highlight risks that investors or users of virtual currencies should carefully consider."
This first primer provides an overview of virtual currencies and their potential use-cases, helps outline the CFTC's role and oversight of virtual currencies, and cautions investors and users of the potential risks involved with virtual currencies.
Gorfine, who also serves as CFTC's Chief Innovation Officer, said, "We look forward to our ongoing engagement with innovators and market participants focused on enhancing our markets and benefitting the American public – we view the release of today's primer as a meaningful step in advancing that engagement."

The Poseidon Project is a 2013 documentary film about the search for the lost Royal Navy submarine HMS Poseidon. The submarine sank after a collision off the coast of China in 1931. It was widely assumed to be still present in the Bohai Sea, 20 miles off the city of Weihai in China's Shandong Province until American author and scuba diver Steven Schwankert discovered that she had been salvaged by a Chinese salvage team in 1972. Schwankert's work and the history of the submarine and its crew is the subject of The Poseidon Project. The film was directed by British brothers Arthur Jones and Luther Jones.

Synopsis
The film is about Beijing-based author and scuba instructor Steven Schwankert's search for the British submarine HMS Poseidon. Schwankert was looking for interesting wrecks to dive in northern China when he found Poseidon on a list of unexplored dive sites. He spent the next six years working on the project, bringing together research in China and the UK to piece together the history of the submarine.

Poseidon collided with a cargo ship off the coast of China on 9 June 1931. Thirty-one of the submarine's crew managed to scramble into the water before the submarine sank to the seabed 130 ft (40 m) below. But 25 were trapped inside. The submarine hit the headlines within hours because five men managed to escape from the submarine using the new Davis Submerged Escape Apparatus. They were the first people to escape from a downed submarine using proto-scuba devices.

The film charts Schwankert's efforts to examine the escape and the accident in unprecedented depth. It also follows him as he uncovers the secret salvaging of the submarine in 1972 by one of China's new salvage teams. The story is also told in Schwankert's book Poseidon: China's Secret Salvage of Britain's Lost Submarine.

Production
Arthur Jones and Luther Jones shot the first scenes of The Poseidon Project in Weihai, China in early 2009. Several return trips to Weihai ensued as Steven Schwankert came closer to discovering the fate of HMS Poseidon, and the location of the British cemetery that was originally located off the coast on Liugong Island. In China, other filming took place in Beijing and Shanghai.

Further scenes were shot in the UK, specifically at Gosport's Royal Navy Submarine Museum, at the Dock Museum in Barrow-in-Furness, at the National Archives in Kew, London, and in and around south London, where the grave of Poseidon escapee Patrick Willis was assumed to be located.

Postproduction took place during 2012 and early 2013. The Poseidon Project premiered at the  Hoboken International Film Festival on 3 June 2013.

Five of the Best Live Action Disney Movies
Mary Poppins (1964)
This magical hybrid remains a true favourite amongst film lovers of all ages and is often considered Walt Disney's greatest living triumph. The music, cast and visuals are all on point and its 13 Academy Award nominations were thoroughly deserved.
Bedknobs and Broomsticks (1971)
Beautifully and humorously blending live action with animation, this underrated gem is an ode to pure escapism, inviting kids and adults alike to get lost in a fantasy brimming with charm and character.
Original and wonderfully executed, Flight of the Navigator is everything an 80s sci-fi flick should be, which delighted families then and continues to offer an entertaining adventure for audiences today.
Honey, I Shrunk the Kids (1989)
Another 80s classic, this imaginative piece of filmmaking fuses the mundane; a suburban back yard, with the extraordinary; oversized objects, to create a fun filled romp certain to keep the kids engaged.
A riveting performance by Johnny Depp, a great comedic undertone and swashbuckling battles made Pirates one of Disney's most successful forays into live action, spawning no less than five sequels.


Japanese runner Vermilion, who is aiming to continue his unbeaten run with a fifth Group 1 victory in a row on Saturday, was cantered for one lap over the dirt track under regular exercise rider Shinji Furukawa.
Work rider Shinji Furukawa commented: "As for the travel to Dubai, it took a bit more time than expected because the flight was a little late, but the horse did not have any problems with the long flight. He is eating very well and seems to like the Dubai water.
"The temperature is quite different from Japan though, it is cool in the morning, so this is ok. Also, thanks to the very good air conditioning at the stable, the horse is not suffering at all from the daytime heat," added Furukawa.
Top Japanese jockey Yutaka Take partnered Vermilion in an impressive workout on the dirt track on Wednesday morning and declared himself very happy with his World Cup mount.
"His time was faster than I expected (12.20-11.87-12.07-11.62-11.71.12.0, splits for the last six furlongs). He did a good job today," he said. "When I last rode him at Kyoto Racecourse, his performance was very good, but I am very satisfied with his work today as well.
Sei Ishizaka, trainer of the six-year-old son of El Condor Pasa, was on hand to supervise the work. "My impression is that he really has improved a lot since last time he ran in Dubai," he said.
600mts/37.68sec, 400mts/24.26sec. Moved well throughout with plenty in hand. Easy work.

Questions & Topics
Dominican Confraternities
History of the Angelic Warfare Confraternity
St. Thomas Aquinas & Chastity
The Dominican friar St. Thomas Aquinas is a powerful patron for chastity and purity because in his own life he received a special grace of chastity and purity and is ready now in heaven to share it with others. St. Thomas Aquinas was born in 1226 and was the son of a noble family in Italy. His parents wanted him to become a Benedictine monk in the hopes that he might one day become the abbot, or leader, of a monastery. However, God had other plans. In his teenage years, the monks sent St. Thomas to study theology in Naples, Italy and there he came across members of the Dominican Order. At the time, the Dominican Order was relatively young and had little social prestige. St. Thomas became very interested in Dominican life and joined the order against the wishes of his parents. His parents so opposed his decision to become a Dominican friar that they had him arrested and jailed in one of the family castles. They would not release him until he relented. The family attempted many times to persuade him to change his mind. For a full year, he refused to change his mind. St. Thomas quietly studied the Bible and grew in wisdom and knowledge. Finally, after becoming tired of waiting, the brothers of St. Thomas conceived one last plan. They were certain that physical temptation would drive him to break his vow of chastity, after which he would surely abandon his religious vocation.
So one night, his brothers brought a prostitute into the room where St. Thomas was being held. The plan did not work as intended. Immediately, St. Thomas snatched a burning branch from the fireplace, drove the woman out of the room, slammed the door behind her, and emblazoned the sign of the cross on the door with the red-hot branch. He then fell to his knees with tears of thanksgiving and prayed to be preserved in his chastity, purity, and intention to live the religious life.
According to the records of his canonization, St. Thomas fell at once into a mystical sleep and had a vision. Two angels came to him from heaven and bound a cord around his waist, saying, "On God's behalf, we gird you with the cord of chastity, a girdle which no attack will ever destroy." In the records of his canonization, many different witnesses who knew St. Thomas at different points in his life remarked about his evidently high degree of purity and chastity. The angels' gift preserved St. Thomas from sexual temptation and bestowed upon him an enduring purity that elevated all his thoughts and actions. Pope Pius XI wrote, "If St. Thomas had not been victorious when his chastity was in peril, it is very probable that the Church would never have had her Angelic Doctor."
Over his lifetime, St. Thomas' conduct revealed that he had indeed received a special grace of chastity and purity – a grace that he is now ready to share with others through the communion of saints.
When was the Angelic Warfare Confraternity founded?
After the death of St. Thomas Aquinas the cord of purity which he had worn was preserved by the friars and made available for public veneration in the Italian city of Vercelli (today the cord resides in the Dominican Church in the town of Chieri, outside of Turin, Italy). Long before the confraternity was officially established, people began to visit the cord of St. Thomas and to pray for purity. Many would have cords touched to the relic and would wear them, hoping that the prayers of this pure saint would help them in the struggle for chastity.
Most people consider Fr. Francis Duerwerders, OP, to be the first one to organize the devotion as it comes to us today. He established it as a confraternity at the Catholic University in Louvain, Belgium, in the middle of the 17th century.
The Confraternity began to grow in different parts of Europe and was officially founded for the whole Church in 1727 by Pope Benedict XIII. It is one of the three ancient Confraternities of the Dominican Order.
Have any Saints or Blesseds belonged to the Confraternity?
Various Saints and Blesseds, such as St. Aloysius Gonzaga, Blessed Pier Giorgio Frassati, Blessed Columba Rieti, and Blessed Stephana Quinzan (who actively promoted the Confraternity among women) have belonged to the Confraternity.
Dominican Friars, Province of St. Martin de Porres


Needing advice— My 5 month old had a head scan done last week to see whether or not she requires a helmet. It came back -moderate- which means we could go either way—helmet or repositioning sessions (aka keep her off that side of the head—and see if it naturally get better). i only know parents that have gone with a helmet, not ones that possibly could have done a helmet but decided not to.
anyone know of someone that's been in this situation or have been there themselves—and decided not to do a helmet??
her pediatrician and physical therapist is saying "you could, if you wanted, but she's a girl and hair will cover it" then i have family saying "do whatever it takes, kids are mean and will pick on her" which made me cry hearing them say that—but it is a possibility.
Included pictures of her scan, the scan scale, and a picture of her head (not the best one) —i can post one later tonight.
We did use a helmet. My son needed a helmet because he will only sleep facing right (even though he does not have torticollis). We have been repositioning and emphasizing turning his head to the left while in the helmet and he just won't give up his comfortable right side while sleeping, which is when it matters most. His head is perfect now but we still kept the helmet on for sleeping. Just something to think about in terms of just trying the repositioning yourself.

The pound or lira ( Lira Yisra'elit,  Junayh ʾIsrāʾīlī; abbreviation: IL in Latin, ל"י in Hebrew; code ) was the currency of the State of Israel from 9 June 1952 until 23 February 1980. The Israeli pound replaced the Palestine pound and was initially pegged at par to £1 sterling. It was replaced by the shekel on 24 February 1980, at the rate of IS 1 = IL 10, which was in turn replaced by the new shekel in 1985.

Before the new currency was brought in, the Anglo-Palestine Bank issued banknotes denominated in Palestine pounds. They were in Hebrew  (lira E.Y. i.e. lira Eretz-Yisraelit) and Arabic junayh filisṭīnī ().

On 1 May 1951, all the assets and liabilities of the Anglo Palestine Bank were transferred to a new company called Bank Leumi Le-Yisrael (Israel National Bank) and the currency name became: lira yisraelit () in Hebrew, junayh ʾisrāʾīlī in Arabic, and Israeli pound in English. The new currency was issued in 1952, and entered circulation on June 9. From 1955, after the Bank of Israel was established and took over the duty of issuing banknotes, only the Hebrew name was used.

History

The British Mandate of Palestine was created in 1918. In 1927 the Palestine Currency Board, established by the British authorities, and subject to the British Secretary of State for the Colonies, issued the Palestine pound (£P) which was legal tender in Mandate Palestine and Transjordan. £P1 was fixed at exactly £1 sterling. It was divided into 1,000 mils.

The Mandate came to an end on 14 May 1948, but the Palestine pound continued in circulation until new currencies replaced it. In Israel, the Palestine pound continued in circulation until the Israeli pound was adopted in 1952. The Israeli pound was subdivided into 1,000 prutot. The Israeli pound retained the Palestine pound's sterling peg. In August 1948, new banknotes were issued by the London-based Anglo-Palestine Bank, owned by the Jewish Agency.

The new coins were the first to bear the new state's name, and the banknotes had "The Anglo-Palestine Bank Limited" written on them. While the first coins minted by Israel were still denominated in "mils", the next ones bore the Hebrew name prutah (). A second series of banknotes was issued after the Anglo-Palestine Bank moved its headquarters to Tel Aviv and became the Bank Leumi ( "National Bank"). The peg to sterling was abolished on 1 January 1954, and in 1960, the subdivision of the pound was changed from 1,000 prutot to 100 agorot (singular agora, ).

Because lira () was a loanword from Latin, a debate emerged in the 1960s over the name of the Israeli currency due to its non-Hebrew origins. This resulted in a law ordering the Minister of Finance to change the name from lira to the Hebrew name shekel (). The law allowed the minister to decide on the date for the change. The law came into effect in February 1980, when the Israeli government introduced the 'Israeli shekel' (now called old Israeli shekel), at a rate of IL 10 = IS 1. On 1 January 1986, the old shekel was replaced by the Israeli new shekel at a ratio of IS1,000:₪1.

Coins
Israel's first coins were aluminium 25 mil pieces, dated 1948 and 1949, which were issued in 1949 before the adoption of the pruta. Later in 1949, coins were issued in denominations of 1, 5, 10, 25, 50, 100 and 250 prutah. The coins were conceived, in part, by Israeli graphic designer Otte Wallish.

All coins and banknotes issued in Israel before June 1952 were part of the Palestine pound.

In 1960, coins were issued denominated in agora. There were 1, 5, 10 and 25 agorot pieces. In 1963, IL  and IL 1 coins were introduced, followed by IL 5 coins in 1978.

Pruta (1949–1960)

Banknotes

In 1948, the government issued fractional notes for 50 and 100 mils. The Anglo-Palestine Bank issued banknotes for 500 mils, 1, 5, 10 and 50 pounds between 1948 and 1951. In 1952, the government issued a second series of fractional notes for 50 and 100 prutah with 250 prutah notes added in 1953. Also in 1952, the "Bank Leumi Le-Israel" took over paper money production and issued the same denominations as the Anglo-Palestine Bank except that the 500 mils was replaced by a 500 prutah note.

The Bank of Israel began note production in 1955, also issuing notes for 500 prutah, IL 1, IL 5, IL 10 and IL 50. In 1968, IL 100 notes were introduced, followed by IL 500 notes in 1975.

They really put customers off - interactive voice response systems that make you select from a raft of options, then keep you waiting on the phone. Paul van Veenendaal runs Customer Service Benchmarking, which analyses telephone services of companies around Australia. His mystery callers ring each organisation 150 times - 15 times over 10 weeks - to test their phone skills and how long they keep us waiting.
His latest 2007 survey shows - ISPs and telcos are slowest by far, they take over 2 and a half minutes on average .. that's just to pick up the phone, a huge expense for 40% of people ringing from mobile phones. Banks and airlines take 2 and a quarter minutes, gas companies, managed funds, electricity and insurance companies one and a half to almost 2 minutes to pick up. Fastest, under a minute, are water companies, local councils and universities.
"What we are noticing with banks is some are trying and actually improve their service to their customers, but overall the banks are still not improving and not doing enough to give customers the service they require" says Paul.
So here are the shortcuts to save you lots of time and money. After you've dialed the company's customer service number, as soon as the voice prompts start, ring these numbers to get a real person. ANZ Bank 00000, Bank West 00000#, Suncorp 0000, Commonwealth Bank and RAMS Home Loans 000, Citybank and Esanda 00, Bendigo Bank, ING Direct, Westpac and Woolworths Ezy Banking, National Australia Bank ###, and St George Bank - just say the department and you're through to a real person. Paul says this also works.
