Completely portable, and one of the smallest WiFi internet surveillance cameras around, this a smart and user-friendly HD spy cam that fits in the palm of your hand. Operates as a battery powered camera or can be mains powered for unlimited use. Place it anywhere for discreet HD 720P filming, with motion activation recording, voice detection recording and live video streaming to your mobile phone.
Possibly one of the smallest, easiest and smartest WiFi Surveillance Black Box Camera you will invest in. This marvellous little 'black box' measures just 75 x 60 x 30 mm (sits on the palm of your hand) and is fitted with an HD internet video camera which allows you to watch LIVE action on your mobile phone in full HD colour accompanied with clear audio.
In addition, the little WiFi MonitorEye HD Cam can send your mobile (or tablet device) push notifications whenever motion or voices are detected. Not just videos, but picture snapshots too can be saved to the devices SD card (not supplied) of which you can remotely back up as hard evidence to your smartphone.
Setup procedure is child's play. From opening the box to remote monitoring the environment takes around two (2) minutes. It really is that easy. No computer is required to use this brilliant little camera, no ethernet cables or complicated software.
The WiFI MonitorEye HD Cam is supplied with a FREE software app available to download from the iTunes and Google Play Store for iOS, Android and tablet devices which allows you to access the camera and settings by touch button control.
The MonitorEye takes advantage of being powered by its own internal fully rechargeable lithium battery for eight (8) hours operation (ideal for deployment in environments where no power socket is available) but can also be plugged into a mains wall socket for 24/7 'around the clock' remote CCTV monitoring without the concerns of battery drain.
Only the network password is required to sync the camera with your mobile phone for real time streaming. Be notified by push notification of movement or voices in the room when you are absent. Likewise, perhaps you have concerns of a vulnerable parent in care.
The iSmart Power Bank can provide three (3)x the battery performance of the MonitorEye's own in-built battery. Simply plug the iSmart into the MonitorEye USB port to extend the battery operation to 24 hours.
The iSmart is a super convenient size (90 x 20 x 40 mm) but houses a massive 6'700 mAh of power. Not just for use with the MonitorEye, it can also recharge other electrical devices (mobile phone, tablet etc) delivering the optimal charging current to ensure the fastest and most efficient charge.
Grab this fantastic high quality miniature internet spy camera for an abundance of security uses. Our highest recommendation at a super price.
How easy is the WiFi aspect to setup?
Simply install the FREE app which is available for Android, iPhone and tablet devices and remotely connect to the MonitorEye device with your mobile phone. Enter the router name and password and thats it! Now you can remotely watch, listen and record anytime, anywhere. The app also sets the time and date with touch button control - so no more messy USB cables.
Can I watch the live stream from anywhere in the world?
Yes. Once setup, the device can be placed anywhere within the internet range of your premises, and from your mobile phone / tablet device you can connect to the surveillance camera anytime & anywhere. For example: you can setup the device to keep a watchful eye on your luggage in your hotel room whilst you enjoy the sights knowing you can receive push notifications in the event of unauthorised entry.
What is the video resolution quality like?
The footage is streamed in HD 720P colour video for excellent viewing imagery.
Does the surveillance camera also support audio?
Yes. This is one of few cameras that does support audio when live streaming and when recording. You can also set the device to send you a push notifications to your smartphone in the event of audio detection too, not just upon motion movement detection.
How is the MonitorEye camera powered?
The device is integrated with a 3'500 mAh fully rechargeable lithium battery which provides enough power for eight (8) hours of operation (per charge). This is ideal for short term surveillance but gives the advantage of the device being placed out of sight where there is no available power socket. Additionally, for unlimited surveillance, the device can be plugged into a mains wall socket negating concerns of battery drain.
Can I recharge the MonitorEye whilst travelling or get extra battery performance?
We can supply an external iSmart power bank which simply plugs into the MonitorEye to bump up the battery juice from eight (8) hours to 24 hours! The iSmart power bank can also recharge any other electrical device for example: iPhone, Android & tablets (which is ideal if you are traveling or getting low on battery).
Where does the recorded footage get stored?
Does the camera support night vision recording?
No. The WiFi camera does not support IR lighting and therefore, is only suitable for day time use. We do supply other products which support night vision recording, please kindly contact us.
Please Note: This product is one of very few available WiFi spy cameras that will stream live audio over WiFi.

Q: Use MS Access to execute Excel VBA I need to call and execute VBA in an Excel spreadsheet from an Access form+button using VBA.
I have several Excel spreadsheets that are connected to my Access DB. I created a separate DB with VBA (C:\CDR & Project Inventory Reports\RebuildDB) to refresh and rebuild my source databases and report workbooks. I also created a separate workbook to refresh all of my other reports (C:\CDR & Project Inventory Reports\RefreshReports). Module 15 of that .xlsm will call all of my other modules to refresh those reports.
Prior to executing the Excel portion of the code is all of my code pertaining to rebuilding the DB. Currently, the Excel portion looks like this:
Dim oXLApp As Object
Set oXLApp = CreateObject("Excel.Application")
oXLApp.Visible = True
oXLApp.Workbooks.Open ("C:\CDR & Project Inventory Reports\RefreshReports.xlsm")
Debug.Print "Open report refresh code"
Debug.Print "refreshing all spreadsheets"

oXLApp.Run "RefreshReports.Module15" 'refreshes all CDR and Proj Inv spreadsheets

DoEvents
Debug.Print "Refresh completed"
oXLApp.ActiveWorkbook.Close (True)
oXLApp.Quit
Set oXLApp = Nothing
Debug.Print "Release object"

The problem I'm having is that oXLApp.Run doesn't actually execute the VBA it needs to. It calls it, then immediately closes. Is there any other way to call it that would result in the code actually running?

A: oXLApp.Run "RefreshReports.Module15"

should be
oXLApp.Run "RefreshReports.xlsm!NameOfMySub" '// Change sub name as required

As it stands, your code isn't running any VBA from Excel because you haven't referred to a specific sub. I presume you have error handling switched off as this should be rather noticeable.

A: You should fully qualify the sub to be executed, by also giving the module name
so
oXLApp.Run "RefreshReports.Module15"

should be
oXLApp.Run "'RefreshReports.xlsm'!Module15.NameOfMySub"

If you use
oXLApp.Run "'RefreshReports.xlsm'!NameOfMySub"

and
the procedure NameOfMySub is declared in more than one module
you will get and error message.
You could also re-write your code thus:
Dim oXLApp As Object
Dim Wkbk as workbook

Set oXLApp = CreateObject("Excel.Application")
oXLApp.Visible = True
set Wkbk  = oXLApp.Workbooks.Open ("C:\CDR & Project Inventory Reports\RefreshReports.xlsm")

Debug.Print "Open report refresh code"
Debug.Print "refreshing all spreadsheets"

oXLApp.Run "'" & Wkbk.Name & "'!Module15.NameOfMySub"

' Note use of single speechmarks arond workbook name

On Wednesday, the Election Commission had banned the screening of the biopic till the end of national elections.
Vivek Oberoi plays the lead role in "PM Narendra Modi".
The Supreme Court today agreed to a plea challenging the Election Commission's ban on the release "PM Narendra Modi", a Prime Minister Narendra Modi's biopic on April 15. The petition has been filed by producers of the film.
On Wednesday, the Election Commission had banned the screening of the biopic till the end of national elections, saying any such film that serves the purpose of any political entity or individual should not be displayed in the electronic media.
Earlier, the top court had disposed of the petition filed by a Congress activist seeking stay on the release of the biopic, saying the Election Commission was the right forum to decide the issue.
The Supreme Court had left it to the Election Commission to take a call by saying that since the movie was not certified at that time by the Censor Board, it could not entertain the petition seeking ban on the film.


If you're jetting off on holiday soon, with the busiest holiday week almost upon us (the last in August), here's our checklist to keep costs to a minimum and enjoyment to the max.
Plus, download our free pocket travel guide to take with you.
£14 annual travel insurance. The winner on pure price is Moneysupermarket's multitrip deal at £14 in Europe and £21 worldwide (£28 & £36 for families). Top for 'value': Factoring in performance and feedback, the MSE & Defaqto top pick Direct Travel is £33 in Europe, £53 worldwide (£56 & £79 for families). FULL info & over 65s best buys in the Cheap Travel Insurance guide.
Don't buy currency at the airport! The TravelMoneyMax Cheap Holiday Cash Comparison finds much better deals. If you've left it too late, at least pre-order (min. 4hrs in advance) for airport pick up, as that boosts the rate.
European holiday? Get an EHIC. This free card entitles you to free or discounted treatment in state-run EU hospitals. If you or your children don't have one, apply asap. If you do, urgently check it's still valid. Take it everywhere as it's only valid in your possession. See the Free EHIC guide.
Slash car hire costs. Don't leave it till you're there, it's usually far cheaper to pre-book. Use comparison sites Kayak, Carrentals & Travelsupermarket. See the Cheap Car Hire guide.
Complain while you're still there. Keep a dossier of any problems, including pictures. If you don't give the hotel/restaurant a chance to remedy it there and then, you've fewer rights when you get home.
Avoid DEBIT cards from hell. If you've a Lloyds, Halifax, RBS, Natwest, IF or Santander debit card, DON'T spend on it abroad. Most cards add commission to exchange rates and cash withdrawal fees but these also charge up to £1.50 every time you spend. So £5 of Euros will cost over £6.50. See the Cheap Travel Cards guide.
Ask friends to text, not phone. You pay around £9/hour to receive calls in Europe, up to £60/hour elsewhere, yet receiving texts is free everywhere. Texting back costs 11p in the EU (up to 40p elsewhere), but keep them short & sweet otherwise you could get charged for more than one message. To make free calls when overseas see the Cheap Roaming guide.
The cheapest way to spend overseas. The top credit cards beat even the best bureau, provided you repay IN FULL each month to minimise interest, or typical APRs are 11.9% to 27.9%. Top cards: Two Halifax cards, Clarity Rewards (for Halifax customers) and the Clarity (for all) have near perfect exchange rates worldwide (and Rewards pays cashback). Over 50s can also consider Saga. Full info in the Cheap Travel Cards guide.


Australia has excellent snow conditions during the winter. The Snowy Mountains are geographically located between Sydney and Melbourne in the high country. Thredbo is one of it's best skiing villages and a great place to learn to ski!


I came to the conclusion. Or at least reaffirmed my conclusion that there is simply no single standard of preparing, serving and enjoying this beautiful Italian tricolore.
My first and best Caprese for Summer 2016. An incredible welcome to Italia!
My wife and I have visited Italy three times now and during each visit I make a concerted effort to order a Caprese at every restaurant, or opportunity that presents itself.
As many of you Caprese fans out there know – the interesting thing about this dish is the many forms it can take on. I think the only thing that trumps that, is the varied tastes and smells each experience share with you.
From the various mozarella and tomato varieties, to the regions the produce is sourced from, and even the way the basil is served make this dish my favourite entrée I'll always love.
I wanted to share these fine specimens recently enjoyed along the Amalfi Coast – from Pub Sud-Est in the south, through to Ristorante Pizzeria Mustafá in the north. Each of these come highly recommended of course!
Ps. Apologies for the backlight or lack thereof on some images. We can either blame the iPhone camera or, well, the local vino bianchi!


The U.S. Secret Service Thursday announced arrests in eight states and six foreign countries of 28 suspected cybercrime gangsters on charges of identity theft, computer fraud, credit card fraud, and conspiracy. . . . The U.S. Secret Service Thursday announced arrests in eight states and six foreign countries of 28 suspected cybercrime gangsters on charges of identity theft, computer fraud, credit card fraud, and conspiracy.
Dubbed "Operation Firewall," the investigation was led by the Secret Service, and involved both local and federal law enforcement agencies in the U.S. and counterparts in Bulgaria, Belarus, Poland, Sweden, the Netherlands, and Ukraine.
The 28 suspects were believed to have trafficked in at least 1.7 million stolen credit card numbers, with losses to financial institutions pegged at over $4.3 million. But it could have been worse. Estimates of potential damages if the gangs hadn't been broken up range into the hundreds of millions, the agency said.


Once, Malayalam movies were revolving around plots that are family centric. Even the most successful movies of other genres had definite elements to establish the value of family. Guess what, those golden days are back. As you all know, Sreenivasan was one of the pillars behind many family entertainers. 'Jacobinte Swargarajyam' could be perceived as a statement that, his son Vineeth Sreenivasan is assertively holding the ground. Their ground!
The movie is based on the lives of Vineeth's friend and his family. If the reports are to be believed, most of the moments that hooked audience are based on true events. If a movie narrates the story as it is, there is a high chance that it would tank at Box Office. Jacobinte Swargarajyam has plenty of un-cliched moments that are relatable to everyone. Yes, Vineeth who has no prior experience in this genre made the movie as if it is his forte.
Jacob (Renji Panicker) is a very successful NRI businessman, but all others are envious for some other reason. They wonder how can someone lead a family the way he does. The happy moments of Jacob with his wife Sherley (Lakshmi Ramakrishnan), their sons Jerry (Nivin Pauly), Ebin (Sreenath Bhasi), Chris (Stacen) and daughter Ammu (Aima Sebastian) might even pose such a question in your head too. That's when the great American economic crisis hit Middle-East. Jacob who has invested mostly in steel, faces a dip like all others. To make it worse, he gets cheated. To repay all the debts as soon as possible, Jacob secures a deal and flies to Libya, where he gets stuck. Because of the constraints of InterPol, he gets grounded in Libya. Jerry who had no prior experience in managing the everything on his own is forced to take up the lead. Under the guidance of his strong mom, and with the support of his family, Jerry sails against fate.
Each and every artist has performed exemplarily, especially Renji Panicker, Nivin Pauly, Lakshmi Ramakrishnan, Sreenath Bhasi, Sai Kumar, T.G. Ravi, Ashwin Kumar and Dinesh Nair. Jomon T.John's photography, Shaan Rahman's musical compositions and Renjan Abraham's cuts support Vineeth's vision extensively. Jacob's Kingdom of Heaven is also the debut production venture of Noble Babu Thomas, under the banner of Big Bang Entertainments.
This is one such must watch movie that will inspire you to test your limits. After all, when the happiness of your family is at stake, quitting is not an option, right?


Much needed. Thank you. My Father, Daniel Lazenberry, never liked or appreciated Joel Osteen and the many prosperity theologies. He has written a book called, THE BARRICADES TO PARADISE. He even mentions Joel Osteen in the book, as a barricade. Could you help me to get my Father's book looked at and published? He passed on June, 2017 and I, his eldest daughter, Cathy Lazenberry, would like to help his dream come true. My cell is 832-922-5657. My email is Mclazenberry@outlook.com. Sincerely, Cathy.
Thank you for reading and commenting. I'm flattered by your request, but, truth be told, I don't know how to get a book published. I can't even get my own book published. It's encouraging to hear about a daughter desiring to honor her father, though.

SecurityWatch Summit 2012: A Lively Debate Over Mobile Security
Behind the iron-wrought doors of an antique bank vault in lower Manhattan, security experts, journalists, and industry analysts enjoyed a lively debate over mobile security at PCMag's first SecurityWatch Summit, sponsored by McAfee.
By Sara Yin
October 4, 2012 3:28PM EST
Behind the steel-clad doors of an antique bank vault in lower Manhattan, security experts, journalists, and industry analysts enjoyed a lively debate over mobile security at PCMag's first SecurityWatch Summit, sponsored by McAfee.
The evening began with McAfee experts demonstrating just how easy it is to break into someone's laptop using readily available software. Although most people have heard that public hotspots are "playgrounds for malcontents to do horrid things," sometimes it takes a live demo to convince people to take the right precautions.
The highlight of the evening was undoubtedly the hour-long panel moderated by our lead security analyst, Neil Rubenking. He was joined on stage by Dan Guido, CEO and co-founder of Trail of Bits; Renato Delatorre, director of network technology and security at Verizon Wireless; Keith Gordon, senior vice president of Security, Identity, and Fraud at Bank of America; and Gary Davis, vice-president of marketing from McAfee.
During the panel we watched our experts go from politely agreeing that, yes, Android devices are vulnerable to infection by malicious apps, to arguing over the scope of mobile threats and privacy issues, Android fragmentation, and the best way to protect users.
Scroll down to watch the entire hour-long panel, and to check out a slideshow of photos from the event.
The following are a few of our favorite answers from each panelist:
Q: We talk about putting protection on devices, and yet every device connects through the network. Is there any way to push protection upstream so we don't have to worry about stopping malware when it's already reached the device?
Renatto Delatorre: Absolutely. We look at security in two layers, the device and the network. The network layer is very key part of securing mobile. On the network we do a lot of things - intrusion detection, DNS analysis, anomaly detection, network intelligence gathering. We participate with a lot of organizations that supply us with information, like McAfee, Sourcefire, all these different feeds, and we take that information and put controls in the network. Malware...can't hide from the network. Attackers have to go through TCP/IP, DNS, and all these other protocols that we can aanalyze and control through the network layer."
Q: In terms of mobile payments, do you think NFC is really necessary? Or is it is a little overrated?
Keith Gordon: I think 'NFC as the key to mobile payments' is a LOT overrated, not just a little. We've been testing all sorts of platforms, like QR code technology. Our premise is that it has to be easier than pulling out your wallet and swiping your card. There are a lot of limitations with NFC. You need the proximity of the phone to the reader. Three milimeters? From a usability perspective you have to touch it! There's a lot usability issues. We think there are other opportunities baked into the phone itself, like using the screen itself as a reader. Every phone's got a screen, but not every phone's got NFC.
Q: We often see demonstrations of different ways attackers can break into our mobile device, like through WiFi or NFC. How worried should we be?
Dan Guido: There are a lot of attacks that are possible, but only very few things are actually profitable for an attacker to perform. When we look at the scope of what actions a malware developer can take to make money, we look at how many mobile browsers there are compared to how many desktop browsers? The reality is that on a mobile browser it is significantly harder to compromise through a mobile browser than it is through a desktop browser. So you have to try harder to get less people. And attackers don't have all the systems in place to take advantage of all the data people have on their devices. So this attack vector [the mobile Web] goes very much unexplored and not one we see actively abused today. Instead, what we see is the app vector. Apps slide onto your phone. You put them on there.
Q: Is there anything your companies can do to protect the people who just don't follow best security practices, and refuse to listen?
Gary Davis: As much as we would like to think that there is something we can do to safeguard against the most basic of human errors, you just can't engineer things to the point where users can't do anything. It's a catch-22: do you stop users from doing the things they want to do [reference to iOS]? Or do you keep trying to educate users? I don't think we can back off the education outlet, because ultimately that's what people will respond to.

UConn unveils energy efficiency work with Eversource
Governor Dannel Malloy visited UConn's Gampel Pavilion on Tuesday to unveil the arena's new energy-saving LED lighting system. The lighting system was made possible by collaboration with Eversource. (Jason Jiang/The Daily Campus)
Governor Dannel Malloy visited UConn's Gampel Pavilion on Tuesday to assist with the school's unveiling of Gampel's new energy-saving LED lighting system, made possible by their collaboration and energy efficiency work with Eversource.
The new LED lighting system is 75% more efficient than the previous system, according to UConn's Director of Environmental Policy, Rich Miller. The new lights last 10 years, so they reduce labor and maintenance costs by 80% when compared to Gampel's previous lighting system.
In addition to reducing UConn's carbon footprint, Eversource has estimated that these efforts will result in the school saving approximately 9.5 million kilowatt hours of electricity and $1.5 million in energy cost savings, as well as CO2 reductions of more than 4,400 tons- the equivalent of nearly 1,100 cars off the road for a year.
"It's a phenomenal success story that's saving us significant energy costs, while also reducing our carbon footprint," Miller said.
The Gampel project is one of many improvements at UConn as part of its long-term energy management strategy with Eversource, according to a press release. The long-term plan takes a comprehensive, cost-effective approach to energy management at all of UConn's campuses and allows the university to better forecast its budget for future improvement projects.
The plan began in 2014 with UConn and Eversource collaborating on several studies to determine where there were opportunities for energy-saving upgrades. In addition to the Gampel project, UConn will complete nearly 80 projects with Eversource by the end of October 2017, including lighting upgrades in academic buildings and cooling upgrades in labs.
"As UConn continues to grow, so do its energy needs," said Jim Hunt, Senior Vice President, Regulatory Affairs & Chief Communications Officer at Eversource. "We are a proud UConn partner and look forward to continuing to help them grow efficiently, be more sustainable and effectively manage energy costs."
Mary Sotos, Connecticut Department of Energy and Environmental Protection (DEEP) Deputy Commissioner for Energy, said that UConn and Eversource's collaboration is important and is making a real difference in Connecticut.
"At DEEP, we are glad to be celebrating with you as UConn shapes the Storrs campus to deliver cost savings and contribute to a cleaner, healthier environment. UConn is not only a national leader in academics, research, and sports, but it leads in promoting environmental sustainability practices as well," Sotos said.
UConn has been ranked by environmental organizations like the Sierra Club among the top 10 green campuses in the nation and around the globe for five consecutive years.
"The work we are recognizing today will not only deliver year-after-year energy and cost savings to the university, it will also help us continue our mission to be a carbon neutral campus by 2050," Miller said.
Miles Gibbs, Senior mechanical engineering and German studies major and chairperson of USG's Sustainability Subcommittee said he was glad the event helped draw attention to UConn's sustainability efforts.
"We formed the (sustainability) subcommittee this year to start bringing people together to form strategic partnerships to work on sustainability issues," Gibbs said. "We think this is a great event to make those connections with companies like Eversource and make our message known to people here on campus," he said.
Matthew McCann Senior mechanical engineering major and intern in UConn's Office of Environmental Policy said that he was excited to see Governor Malloy draw attention to sustainability issues.
"What excites me about this is that the governor is really recognizing the importance of energy efficiency, from both an environmental and economic standpoint. It's exciting to see people bringing attention to UConn and the good things we're doing for the environment," McCann said.
Additional Gampel improvements include the installation of variable-frequency drivers (VFDs) to regulate air handlers and the replacement of the original chillers and cooling towers with modern equipment for more efficient heating and cooling. Gampel is expected to save $100,000 a year in energy costs, according to the press release.
In addition to electric efficiency projects, there's been several natural gas efficiency projects completed at UConn's Storrs campus, resulting in an additional 2,700 tons of avoided carbon emissions.
Future UConn and Eversource plans may include dorm, ice rink and greenhouse upgrades, as well as projects at Avery Point, UConn Health, and Law School, the press release said.
The energy efficiency tour was held during the EcoHusky Student Group's Earth Day Spring Fling, an annual celebration of sustainability featuring student groups, organic and local food and eco-friendly vendors.

By Wang Chao (China Daily Latin America)
Colombia soccer fan Suzana poses after picking up her 2014 World Cup tickets in Rio de Janeiro. Shankai Sports International in Beijing, which has rights to sell ticket and travel package deals in the mainland, Hong Kong and Macao, reckoned it will sell 1,500 of them this year, compared with 700 in 2010. [Photo / Agencies]
Twice as many "hospitality tickets" are expected to be sold in China for the soccer World Cup in Brazil compared with the number sold for the previous finals in South Africa four years ago, the agent in China said.
Shankai Sports International in Beijing, which has rights to sell ticket and travel package deals in the mainland, Hong Kong and Macao, reckoned it will sell 1,500 of them this year, compared with 700 in 2010.
In addition to package deals, the world governing body of soccer FIFA also sells standalone tickets. Of the more than 3 million tickets it expects to sell for the games, which will be played over four weeks beginning on June 12, about 10 percent will be for package deals--the official hospitality packages.
The prices of match tickets range from $90 to $1,250 and the prices of packages, which can include air fares, tickets in premium positions, accommodation, meals and transport to stadiums, cost from 70,000 yuan ($11,200) in China.
Because China failed to qualify for the games, FIFA allocated a limited number of match tickets to the country. For much sought-after tickets for games such as the final, applications of those wanting to buy them go into a ballot.
The hospitality package deals usually include tickets for more than one match. There are four product series: group matches, round of 16, quarter-finals, semi-finals and the final
A spokesman for the Brazilian embassy in Beijing said those who buy any official tickets are eligible for multiple entries into the country during the competition with no visa fee.
Apart from Shankai Sports, Chinese fans can also buy packages through FIFA's licensed provider Match Hospitality, or through FIFA itself at hospitality.fifa.com.
With kickoff in the opening game less than a month away, competition for tickets is intense, and many unauthorized tickets have sprouted up on the Internet. In at least one case the asking price for a ticket for the final is 60,000 yuan.
FIFA said it is monitoring such sales and has issued warnings to those selling tickets without proper authorization.
"We have identified a significant increase in the number of unauthorized entities in China engaging in the resale of tickets ... (and) such activity presents numerous risks to Chinese fans," FIFA said in a statement.
"Tickets that originate from unauthorized sources are not valid and may very well result in the bearer not being permitted entry."
FIFA also bans the trading of complementary tickets issued to media and sponsors.
During the 2012 European Championship, a Chinese agency that violated the rules by selling tickets meant for sale in China to fans in England had its sales license suspended.
Gong Hua, vice-president of Shankai Sports, said flying overseas to watch sports is becoming increasingly popular among China's middle class."It is very common for Europeans to fly overseas for a football match, but Chinese usually combine such events with tourism."
Sports fans from countries such as Germany, France and England tend to be genuine aficionados of the games they go overseas to see, whereas many Chinese attend the events just to get a taste of the big-event atmosphere, Gong said.
"For some, the only soccer they watch is the World Cup, just as many people tend to watch the Olympic Games even if they normally watch little other professional sport."
The traditional big markets for the World Cup are Europe and the US, Gong said.
Given Brazil's importance in soccer – it has won the World Cup five times, more than any other country – Gong predicted more tickets will be sold than in 2010, when the finals were held in South Africa, which is not a soccer power.
Nevertheless, Shankai Sports' package deal sales that year exceeded those in Japan and South Korea, two of Asia's top soccer playing countries, he said.
During the finals four years ago, more than 1 million overseas tourists visited South Africa, according to official figures.
In Brazil, all major downtown hotels in cities where matches are being played will have been reserved by FIFA, making it extremely difficult to find accommodation. In some cases, accommodation on cruise ships is being offered.

With what could be the hottest 4th of July weekend on record looming for Atlanta, many will spend the weekend indoors celebrating Independence Day à la Will Smith. For those brave enough to venture into the heat - or for those who prefer a stiff drink while those planet-destroying aliens are getting their butts kicked - a couple of recent articles might make the task of getting intoxicated (responsibly, of course) a bit easier.
The New York Times recently ran two pieces on summer cocktails made with just three ingredients. The first batch came from professional chefs and so-called mixologists. The second group came from readers. Both articles provide plenty to choose from, and though I make a mean Pimm's Cup (about six ingredients, give or take), my favorite summer drink has just one ingredient: beer.


A website is an extension of your true self and shows your dedication to the clients. It can cost you thousands of dollars and months to build but with WordPress, you can squeeze that into a very minimal investment and just a couple of days to have a fully functional and responsive website working for you. With the right tools and information, you might not even have to hire an expert to do the job for you. What this means is that you will be able to make the site exactly how you want it and how you had envisioned it. It gives you ultimate control. Convinced? If you would like more reasons on why you should go the WordPress way to make the process of making the switch easier, then here you are.
WordPress is filled with Freedom.
The best thing with WordPress is the fact that it is a free software. Anyone can download, install, modify and use it however they please. It can be used to create whatever kind of website one would like and the best part about the freedom that it offers has to be the source code which is also open to anyone. You can study it, modify and play around with it to fit into your own needs. At the moment, there are over 2,000 WordPress themes that a user can download and over 30,000 plugins available with a great number of these being free. All you will need is your domain and webhosting and you can have your site up and running in a couple of days.
Initially, learning how to come up with a website was a tall order that required you to enroll in school. This is not the case with WordPress. There are numerous online resources that you can use during the installation process. It also offers insights into some of the key features and how you can work with them. There are millions of people that use WordPress and many more register every single day. The power to be able to create your own website from scratch with your own hands is utterly irresistible. However, this should not stop you from hiring a WordPress professional if you like. It is a win-win situation for you since it is much cheaper.
It is diverse and extendable.
Most of the people that use WordPress are not programmers or web designers. They are just ordinary people that are looking to get the most out of the little they have. WordPress becomes a great candidate for them because it has thousands of templates that one can choose from to give the site the feel and look that they would want. It is a great feature that allows you to capture the niche of your site without having to put it out there in words. Should you want to customize your site further, the themes come with their own options panels that you can use to adjust the colors and the background, create sliders and even upload logos as you please. There is a lot that you can do without having to do any coding.
As if that is not enough, you can also be able to extend the use of WordPress by the addition of plugins. You can get extra functionality out of these and the best part is that once again you will be spoilt for choice from the variety of plugins available.
It makes your SEO campaign easier.
For your website to be noticed and start receiving visitors, SEO is going to have to be a crucial aspect. Luckily with WordPress, there are a variety of options that you could use. Some come as default with the site and others are plugins that you can download that would help you monitor your traffic and analytics. To incorporate such features in sites that have been hard coded would not only be hard but also quite time consuming.
One of the areas where WordPress scores greatly is when it comes to the management. You are not going to need an expert for this. The sire comes with a WordPress admin dashboard which has an in-built updater where you can update your plug-ins and themes. You get notifications of new versions available and all you have to do is click and the rest will be done for you. You get to manage your site like a professional without having to put in the work and immense amounts of workload. To ensure that all your content is safe especially during updates you can set up automated back-ups which is also an easy method to get around.
Given the surging cases of cybercrimes, website owners have to be cautious and ensure that they invest in the right mechanisms that protect not only them and their websites but their visitors as well. With WordPress, this has been done for you. It is created with security in mind and is capable of running practically any kind of website. However, there is also your part to play which is to have a strong password to protect all your documents and admin functions.
WordPress supports a variety of media types.
You never know which kind of media you may want to associate with your website. As you start out, you may want to have pictures then as you grow, want to have instructional or testimonial videos. With WordPress, you will not have to go through a tedious process of readjusting. You just add you new media. The site supports a variety of types of media which is quite beneficial since you have more flexibility to work with. The best thing about this features is the fact that you can also let your visitors embed videos on your website as well with ease.
Whether you are looking to have a blog, an arcade site, shopping store, rating website you name it, WordPress offers you a cheap efficient and effective solution that allows you to realize your dreams faster and that the same time ensure that you provide your future and current visitors with something professional and responsive that is easy to use and one that they will definitely find interesting and fun to use. With WordPress, you make your site what you want it to be and make it do what you want it to do.


It's been in the works for a little while, and today we're happy to announce a new way for some APHA members to promote their capabilities… the AdvoConnection Advocate Spotlight!

If you are an APHA Premium, directory-listed member, we would love to feature you too! Simply log into your membership dashboard, and find a link to the spotlight instructions.


I have often been a bit annoyed by PS3 home that I did not feel comfortable with my avatar. I had a few custom clothes that were fun, but the lack of green hair just grated.
Now though with the release of the game AvP (which I have on my Xbox) some limited edition content has been made available.
So I bought it last night and whilst I cannot overlay my jacket as in Second Life it did feel just right. Odd as that may seem.
The models and movement and lighting are all very high grade as you would expect. Though I think it still shows the fantastic skill of Sythia Veil who created my predator AV in Second Life over 4 years ago with just the tools in SL !
Which I might add if I had not had so much time and emotion invested in that look I would not have paid to have that in PS3 Home and then written this post singing it praises. Note, there is a lot to be said for user created content and fan art!

A: Take a look at the documentation for the the constructor for ArrayAdapter that you're using.  It says the resource ID must be a layout with a TextView.  It turns out, in this case, that the layout must contain ONLY a single TextView.  If you have a different case, use a different constructor.
ArrayAdapter populates a ListView by taking the toString() value of the object in its array, then putting that into the TextView identified by the layout you passed.

A: Two problems

*

*You can't use the ArrayAdapter constructor for displaying any complex data objects. It will just toString all the objects.

*Calling findViewById(R.id.e_name) (and the others) from within the Activity will return null because @+id/e_name isn't from the activity_event_list.xml file.

To solve these, you'll need to implement a custom ArrayAdapter for your Event objects.
Something like so
public class EventAdapter extends ArrayAdapter<Event> {
    public EventAdapter(Context context, ArrayList<Event> events) {
       super(context, 0, events);
    }

    @Override
    public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {
       // Get the data item for this position
       Event event = getItem(position);
       // Check if an existing view is being reused, otherwise inflate the view
       if (convertView == null) {
          convertView = LayoutInflater.from(getContext()).inflate(R.layout.each_event, parent, false);
       }

       TextView eName = (TextView) convertView.findViewById(R.id.e_name);
       // get other views ...

       eName.setText(event.getEventName());
       // set other views...

       return convertView;
   }
}

Then in the Activity, you can do
ArrayList<Event> elist= db.getEventlist();
EventAdapter adapter = new EventAdapter(this, elist);
listView.setAdapter(adapter);

A: I have read your code, and I think it's worth first checking how ListViews and and Adapters work together. Here's a great article I think you should take a look at.
Solution
You can achieve what you want by

*

*Creating a custom class that represents an event, it should be something like this
class Event{
    private String mName;
    private String mLocation;
    private String mDate;
    //you get the idea ...
    public Event (String name, String location, String date){
        mName = name;
        mLocation = location;
        mDate = date;
    }
    //some getters
    public String getName (){
        return mName;
    }
    public String getLocation (){
        return mLocation;
    }
    public String getDate (){
        return mDate;
    }
    //you can add other logic here depending on what you want your event to do
}

*Creating you collection of Events, a List<Event> will do

*Creating your custom EventAdapter, I would recommend to extend the BaseAdapter class (any other Adapter class would do)

In the age of data driven personalization, corporations need to aim for optimal human-machine interaction. CIOs or CHROs will not be able to deliver on this alone.
US-based learning and skill tracking platform is aimed at sensitizing CIOs on their two pronged role for digital transformation - procuring and updating technology platforms in the dynamic business scenario and ensuring that CHROs have the best skills building technologies that can cut the long talent/skills-gap story short.
How does a platform like Degreed fit into the scheme of things when a traditional organization decides to go for Digital transformation?
Degreed has partnered with companies not just for our products but really for their digital transformation initiative that puts the employee first and then takes the best of the consumer web to design an enterprise learning platform. It allows employees to build and represent their skills over the entire arc of their career. It's really exciting as this is the first time that the end consumer has been put first. We are excited to work with hundreds of companies to deliver this.
What has been your observation of working with the Indian companies? What are some of the unique problems you think that they face?
It's been fascinating to work with Indian companies. What's amazing is that in all our non-US markets like Europe and Asia Pacific, they are generally one to two years behind on the adoption curve. But they are not behind at all on the education curve. Indian companies are upto speed with what we have been able to develop in the US and are moving at an incredibly fast pace to adopt this technology. When it comes to skilling and new technologies and new innovations around helping people build and represent their skills, India is one to two years ahead of most other countries, specifically the US. This creates a rich environment where we have a lot of companies that are grappling with job vacancies. We have a lot of employees that are struggling to represent what skills they have. It is pretty significant market failure to match up the skills that people here in India have, with open jobs. Degreed comes in as the platform that solves this matching problem with technology and data and work with these great companies to better serve their employees. I do believe that we are going to see a pretty significant difference here.
What is the current state of skills evolution across enterprises ? Which are the areas in which they are struggling to get key skills?
56% of Indian companies are reporting difficulty filling up jobs. It really is a matter of mapping the supply of skills with the demand for those skills . Right now the market is desperate to speak the language of skills – what can you do, how are you a good fit for this opportunity, how can you help my company, but it cant so it still uses jobs, resumes and formal degrees as the unit of measure and that puts a lot of friction in the market. 80% of CEOs report that availability of key skills is their number one pressing issue and it is accelerating .It has very real costs in terms of loss of productivity and growth, retention inside companiesbut the more profound effect is on job seekers who are unable to really represent what skills they have.
Research agencies like Gartner predict that by 2021, CIOs will be responsible for a change just the way CHROs are? How do CIOs become digital evangelists?
This is more pronounced in India than in the US. In US, CHROs and CLOs are primarily the ones making the talent and workforce planning and learning decisions. Here in India, the CIOs have a very active role. They are a stakeholder in the US but in India they are much more active. The biggest lesson is that it's the partnership – it's a trend that we are finding more and more CIOs/CTOs in active partnership with HR and Learning and Talent business partners, listening to the needs of these end consumers which are the employees and prospective employees, and this partnership goes both ways to understand that it is possible to buy a technology platform that solves a human capital need that manages to have all the enterprise class scalability and security, but also that it is designed for the end user. This is a tremendous opportunity. The partnership between HR and CIOs is going to be really critical. We have seen it in the US and the callout to everyone in India is that everyone in the C-Suite works together, the end result is much better product and experience for the end employees. Well-documented business benefits have come from this partnership.
How should CIOs deal with the problem the digital blur?
When I meet companies in India and ask CIOs if they know what skills do they have, the answer is probably not. You cannot even begin to measure the impact of digital initiatives until you understand first what skills do you need, what skills you have and third, are you actually making progress at acquiring or building those skills to close the skills gap . It is not surprising that there is a digital blurr because they are not even measuring the skills in the first place. The focus is on measuring skills and making investments to build those skills and tying it back to the ultimate business outcomes.
How does Degreed help CIOs in this?
Degreed helps CIOs through partnership and not just a product. Our Learner Experience Platform, skills measurement product is the product that we are selling but at the end of the day, it's not just about the product that we are selling. It's about how with deep partnership with these companies over many many years and we are doing so globally, so much of what we have built has been co created with our customers. We now done it with 300 companies globally and excited to do with companies here in India.
Can you talk about some of your customer stories in India?
We can talk about a global company like Boeing, that US tax reform dollars, their C-Suite executives decided that they are going to invest in those tax reform dollars in their employees. So they put kiosks up all around their facilities and solicited ideas directly from employees – asking them what do they need – and they got 40,000 suggestions back and the number one that shuffled to the top was invest in helping us build the skills we need to remain competitive. That led Boeing to buy Degreed and not just the product but a partnership on how we are working to upskill their workforce. Experience with Boeing has all the elements that we would love to see from a successful partnership. Sponsorship from the C-Suite, listening to and feedback from the employees tied to investing in things that close skill gaps and ongoing partnership between the company and Degreed.


Intense dryness, irritation and scaling: even oily and acne-prone skin can go through such side effects following a dermatological treatment. Isotretinoin such as Accutane, adapalene such as Differin, antibiotics like tetracycline as well as high concentrations of benzoyl peroxide and salicylic acid are only a few examples of medical treatments with potentially uncomfortable effects. Upon its very first application, Sebium Hydra brings both moisture and skin back to normal. After 14 days only, dermatologists have noticed its considerable effect in 89% of the cases they examined. After 84 days, this percentage increased to 97%. Many ingredients contribute to the effectiveness of Sebium Hydra. The glycerin it contains allows to intensely moisturize while ceramide restructures the epidermis. Their combination helps fight scaling and pulling sensations. Two powerful soothing agents, allantoin and enoxolone, decrease the appearance of redness and relieve the epidermis. The exclusive, dermo-patented Fluidactiv® complex purifies the skin by improving sebum quality and limiting clogged pores. The D.A.F. complex uses a seaweed extract to improve the tolerance threshold of the skin and to stimulate its resistance. The epidermis becomes less reactive and less permeable to aggression.
Sebium Hydra can be used once or twice a day, seven days a week. Start by cleansing your skin with Sebium H2O or Sebium Foaming Gel. Apply Sebium Hydra. It can be used under makeup and is suitable for adults as well as teenagers.
When teenagehood knocks at the door, skin can easily become thicker and shinier. It can evolve to be irregular and prone to blemishes which can last, appear or reappear during adulthood, both for men and women. Sometimes, dermatological treatments are required. But many of them weaken skin by drying or irritating it. At Bioderma, we have designed the Sebium routine for oily, combination, irregular and/or acne-prone skin. Our line of products is made only with the ideal dosage of ingredients that are often present in your skin, and the Fluidactiv® complex, which improves sebum quality. Skin that was weakened by prior anti-acne treatments need special care. Even oily skin can require proper moisture, since dryness and irritation may result from dermatological treatments and other factors of external aggression. Sebium Hydra is a compensating treatment that was specifically formulated to help offset short-term imbalances while respecting the specificity of oily, blemished and/or acne-prone skin. It intensely moisturizes, limits pulling sensations, soothes redness and relieves the epidermis.

The state police are in the process of hiring an architect and design team to design a new multipurpose building that will include offices, class rooms, a kitchen, cafeteria and a multi-purpose room that can be used for tactical training. They hope to break ground on the new building by late spring, said Rodney Brewer, the Kentucky State Police commissioner.
But the academy and the Kentucky State Police have been using buildings on the campus since July 2011.
By using existing money and manpower of academy staff, the state police have modified three buildings on the minimum security campus for classroom space. Because there are too few classrooms at the U.S. 60 location, the state police cannot run a cadet class and conduct training for current officers at the same time. That means they have had to rent office space in other parts of the city at a cost of about $25,000 to $30,000 a year, Brewer said.
To date, state police have revamped a former chapel, a visiting center and another building at the former career development center. A fourth building has been remodeled into a gym, and a fifth has been altered for tactical and other training.
The remodeling of those buildings has already been a boon for the state police and has cost taxpayers little, Brewer said. In total, about $125,000 has been spent on materials to upgrade the buildings and add new heating and air conditioning units. The state police have done nearly all the work themselves, Brewer said.
"It's been a lot of sweat equity," Brewer said.
And it's been a long time coming.
Brewer, who has been with Kentucky State Police since 1979 and became commissioner five years ago, said having an up-to-date training facility is key to having an outstanding police force. For 65 years, Kentucky State Police have not had their own, stand-alone training facility.
"We have been able to produce some really great people despite the sub-par conditions," he said. "But I think this will do more to influence the product that we produce over the next 25 years than anything else we do."
Cabinet for Justice and Public Safety Secretary J. Michael Brown said that the current state police training facility has not made it easy to recruit cadets.
"As far as a recruiting tool, particularly for today's young folks who have grown up in an era of wi-fi and social media, our old facility was just woefully inadequate," said Brown.
"It reminds me of a case where a college sends you a brochure that includes one beautiful snapshot of a classroom or part of a campus, but when you take your child for an actual visit, you feel like they violated truth in advertising standards because the place is a dump."
When the Department of Corrections decided to close the Frankfort facility to save money, Brown called Brewer to see if the state police would be interested in the sprawling, bucolic property next to the Franklin County Detention Center, a Library and Archives building and not much else on the East-West Connector Road in Frankfort.
Brewer jumped at the opportunity.
"I said, 'I'll be there in 10 minutes," Brewer said.
Gov. Steve Beshear also backed the project and set aside $2 million in state funds for the new building. State police are also using $2.5 million in federal forfeiture money — or money from the sale of items used in the commission of crimes — for the construction of the new building and remodeling of others. Eventually, Brewer would like to see the academy have its own indoor firing range and driver training facility.
The $4.5 million to convert the prison property is a lot, but to build a new facility would cost upwards of $34 million, Brewer said.

Norwich was recently called the 'new Notting Hill' but we all knew that already, didn't we, asks Joe Pattinson from Newbury New Homes.
The Home section of The Sunday Times last week included a huge feature on "The New Notting Hill" which turns out to be Norwich! The newspaper reckons that Norwich could be "the next big thing". I guess that many of us have known Norwich to be a beautiful city for many years and given its massive popularity with tourists and shoppers, plenty of others know that too. The growth of coffee shops, artisan stores, galleries and beards is making the city quite hip.
We have seen that the whole of East Anglia is becoming more sought after with Cambridge and its high tech companies and world class colleges leading the way. Since the last nine mile stretch of the A11 was dualled, the towns and villages between Mildenhall and Norwich have become more sought after and the advent of the Northern Distributor Route is making those areas around Norwich in high demand.
Many will be aware of the Barker report into housing which calls for a minimum of 245,000 houses to be built annually in the UK – a target that is being missed by some distance. In the Greater Norwich Area we are beginning to do a bit better but are still not quite there. In 2015/2016 we built 1,164 homes against a target of 1,825 meaning a shortfall of 661. With previous shortfalls this means the target number required for every year up until 2026 will be 2,967, which is unlikely to be met, though at Newbury we are doing our best to help with two more sites (in Barnham Broom and Harleston) coming on stream early next year. Hopefully once the network improvements are finished the London service will become more reliable and get back to being as quick as it was 20 years ago. It might still be too long a daily commute for the hipsters from London but as work patterns change Norwich may well become the "next big thing" for those people, like my daughter, who only has to go to the office two or three days a week. Working from home will increasingly become the next big thing and should be a serious consideration when choosing your new home. You will need to make sure that you have enough space for the home office. Pop down to Wendover Park at Rackheath and compare the room that you will get in your new Newbury New Home with other new homes. Get Mike to show you the fantastic interactive screen that will take you on a tour and illustrate the exceptional Newbury specification that comes within the price as does a contribution on stamp duty and legal fees.
In the meantime keep an eye out for Julia Roberts.

They continued consistent service and excellent communication. They communicate with me regularly. I've never had financial issues. Lucas and Danielle do an excellent job as to the countless individuals that I've worked with in the past.
Provided pet sitting/dog walking service for our puppy.
We needed dog walking services in a pinch when we lost our regular dog walker, who was a good friend (big shoes to fill). I contacted Peak City Puppy and was given all the necessary info immediately and was told that they would have no trouble fitting us in. After a home visit where we met our pet sitter, Mary, we were good to go. We have been so pleased with the service. Mary is absolutely fabulous - she takes wonderful care of our puppy and sends me comprehensive texts after each visit. She even sent me a picture on one of the first visits - she really knew how to put me at ease. The online scheduling system is easy to use and very convenient. They also have a very generous cancellation policy. I would highly recommend their service.

A Decade of Sino-American Relations
By Michel Oksenberg
Michel Oksenberg is currently Professor of Political Science at the University of Michigan and a Research Associate at its Center for Chinese Studies. He was a member of the staff of the National Security Council, concerned with matters relating to China, from January 1977 to February 1980. He is the author of The Dragon and the Eagle (with Robert Oxnam) and other works.
More By Michel Oksenberg
While the past decade of Sino-American relations has been largely constructive, the ten years have not been on a steady incline. Rather, there have been two strong forward spurts, from spring 1971 through May 1973, and from May 1978 through early 1980. The relationship has also endured two periods of some acrimony and erosion: from the fall of 1975 to late 1976 and from mid-1980 to the effort to stabilize the relationship reflected in the communiqué on arms sales to Taiwan that was agreed in August 1982. In addition to the periods of rapid forward movement and retrogression, several periods are best portrayed through metaphors such as "

In a little over a week, we open up the community-driven process to gather session proposals for the 2019 Nonprofit Technology Conference, held this year in Portland, Oregon.
Session proposals open on July 9, 2018. Every year we look for opportunities to improve the process. Below are the key changes and updates we've made this year.
NTEN has increased our commitment to supporting diversity, equity, and inclusion overall, as well as its influence on the proposal and session selection process. In particular, the Session Advisory Committee will be using this as a specific filter during their voting, which carries 40% of the aggregate score for sessions.
As the overall number of sessions has increased over the last few years, it makes sense that the associated opportunities for community members to make contributions to the educational sessions would as well. As a result, the following limits have been increased.
While 90 minutes is a great length for sessions in general, the feedback we have heard is that it becomes a bit tedious over the course of a multi-day conference. As a result, this year we will be experimenting with a 75-minute session length to help with the overall pace, and to create space in the agenda for an additional session time slot.
To further explore new formats, we are also adding a new session type this year. Tactical sessions will be just 30 minutes long, with a tight focus on immediately applicable skills and tips for attendees. To create equity, for these presenters (versus sessions in other categories), selected sessions will run twice back to back. Although sessions run twice, they only count as a single session toward limits.
The NTC Session Advisory Committee consists of community members selected based on expertise in particular content areas. Each member is assigned to a particular session category where their votes contribute to 40% of the overall aggregate score for sessions during the voting stage of the process. This year, each category has assigned five committee members rather than three in the previous year.

Q: Cosmos DB overwrite existing documents Currently, I have this, which works fine.
this.container.items
  .create<Session>(data)
  .then(() => callback(null))
  .catch((error) => {
    console.log("error >>>", error)
    callback(error)
  });

However, if I try to create another document with the same ID, I get the error:

message: 'Entity with the specified id already exists in the system.

Is it possible to make Cosmos ignore it and overwrite the document, or is there a method on the NodeJS SDK for that?

A: You would need to use Upsert if you want to upadate the entire document , if you need to change few fields then consider using Patch operation
Upsert
  const { resource: upsertedPerson1 } = await container.items.upsert(upsertSource);

Patch
 const { resource: patchSource1 } = await container.item(patchId!).patch(replaceOperation);

Check the samples here.

A: You can use UPSERT method of items.
