El Cajon Invites Chaldeans to Join Concerts on the Green
By Sam Yousif :: Sunday, April 6, 2008 :: 96563 Views :: Health & Fitness, Living & Lifestyle, Community & Culture
California, USA - The El Cajon Community Development Corporation (then known as Downtown El Cajon, Inc.) has been looking for a novel way to build their downtown community. Hoping to tap into the business creativity, entrepreneurship, and community family spirit of the Chaldean community, the organizers invite Chaldeans to join their concert series along with other residents of El Cajon.
The 13th Annual Concerts on the Green is a free weekly summer concert series featuring live music for all ages that beings Friday, May 23, 2008 from 6:00 to 8:00 pm on the Prescott Promenade in Downtown El Cajon. Opening night of the 2008 Concerts on the Green will feature the Rockabilly sounds of The Stilettos. The concerts are free to the public. Concerts on the Green 2008 is offered every Friday evening through September 5.
Working on a tight budget, the group was miraculously able to pull off live performances on the central Prescott Promenade during the Friday lunch hour. The occasional performances started small, attracting some 25 or so people each Friday noon during the few summer weeks the programs were offered. But thus was born the original Concerts on the Green in Downtown El Cajon.
With the addition of new shops, restaurants and modern townhomes in Downtown El Cajon, Concerts on the Green began to quickly grow in both size and scope. The event was moved to Friday evenings to make it more convenient for people to attend and to make better use of the new outdoor dining opportunities being found along Main Street.
Still free to the public, more varied performers and those of greater stature were being presented. Quality sound systems and a professional stage were purchased. Crowds began to grow. Before long, Concerts on the Green became a highly popular weekly musical event presented all summer-long. Today, Concerts on the Green attracts on average more than 500 people each week, with some performances bringing more than 1,000 people to Downtown El Cajon on a Friday evening.
The family-oriented Concerts on the Green features top entertainers in a friendly park setting every Friday evening from 6:00 to 8:00 p.m. From blues to rock, and jazz to swing, there is something for every type of music lover.
Chaldean families are encouraged to bring a picnic, or enjoy dinner at one of several fine restaurants now open on Main Street in Downtown El Cajon.
2008 Concerts on the Green Schedule:
May 23: The Stilettos (Rockabilly)
May 30: Stars on the Water (Tropical Rock)
June 6: Eve Selis (Roadhouse Rock)
June 13: Sue Palmer (Boogie Woogie)

Now I'm Part of History
Rocky Flats encirclement, 1983
I guess it's inevitable that after living 70 years you become part of history, especially in this swiftly changing culture. Because I've lived more than 50 of those years in the same place—Boulder, Colorado—I've seen a lot of transformations. Yet I was still surprised a few years ago when the local oral history project wanted to interview me about the 1970s—the fabled time of anti-war protests, hippies, drugs and (apparently) wild sex. At the time Boulder proudly wore the slogan, "where the hip come to trip."
Yet, it didn't seem that long ago that I interviewed an older woman for the same history project, but, I realized, it was 40 years ago, and the Boulder native described life in the 1930s and 1940s in what was then a sleepy college town. I thought history belonged to my parents' generation, who were born in the Depression years and lived through World War II. It hadn't occurred to me that the 1970s, when I came of age, eventually would be considered an historic era, nor that I would ever get old enough to be an authority on that history.
But I kept getting reminders. Last year my 16-year-old nephew wanted to interview me for his "counterculture" class. I was happy to oblige, because I wanted to convey to him the turbulence of those times: the anti-war protests on campus; female staffers at the university striking for free child care; how men started wearing their hair long and women gave up girdles and high heels to wear long, loose skirts; and how marijuana was everywhere.
I wanted to re-create the excitement of a time when it seemed the world was changing under our feet. It must be characteristic of older people to want to convey to a new generation how different life was then. And just as elemental for the younger generation to be bored with the old days, just as we weren't interested in stories of how our parents and grandparents struggled in the Depression and war years.
Most recently, I wanted to check out Boulder's new history museum in town, because I was in a mood to go back to an earlier and slower way of life: the 1800s and early 1900s, when Boulder's dirt streets were traversed by miners, farmers and horses. But the exhibit of 75 iconic symbols of Boulder's history focused mostly on the time from the 1970s forward.
As a journalist from the 1970s to the 2000s, I had a front-row seat to much of that history: the first gay marriage (before it was legal); the encirclement of the Rocky Flats nuclear processing plant south of town by peace activists; the deaths of Chicano activists in a car explosion; the start of Celestial Seasonings tea company. A photo of Boulder's first natural food store brought memories of all the times I ate at the upstairs restaurant where hippies and others could get a healthy meal for $2.
I didn't need to be educated about this history because I was there. It's a strange feeling to become part of history. It means you've lived longer than you thought, have seen and experienced more than you realized and that you can no longer deny that you're old, because you're staring at your life in a history museum.

Love the last line of this incisive piece!
Years ago when I was teaching at a community college, I came out of the classroom and as I was walking toward the campus quad, I overheard two students discussing the history exam they had just taken.
HIm: What date did you put down for when Kennedy was assassinated?
Her: Ummm, I think it was 1962
Me: [In my head] It was November 22, 1963. I was in Woolworth's with my little sister, and I looked around and saw people crying. Then I heard the radio announcer, voice shaky, telling us our president had been shot and was dead. I held my little sister's hand as we walked home in the cold. That night we sat in front of the TV and watched what have become iconic videos of Jackie in her blood-spattered pink suit. Two days later we watched on the TV as Jack Ruby shot Lee Harvey Oswald.
We were there, Kath, on the ground. I asked my father once if he remembered when he heard that Pearl Harbor had been bombed. "Oh, yeah," he said, and gave me the details of where he was and what he was doing and how he felt. We carry the shape of history in our bodies, don't you think?
Thanks, Verna! I too remember all the details of Kennedy's assassination (which for my nephews is now ancient history). I remember wondering at the time how something like that could happen; I thought adults were in charge of the world, and so the world was safe. To me that was the beginning of the "counterculture," of a new generation realizing we needed to take action. I agree that each generation is imprinted with the world-changing events of our times.
Dhyana Eagleton says:
What an interesting piece. I feel turned around and upside down to look at your experience from fresh, new angles! Yes, the generations march on at a breathtaking pace even as we yearn for the days of miners and dirt roads! Love the punch of your final comment!
Thanks, Dhyan. Sometimes I think I just want to go back to a slower time.
Jennifer Woodhull says:
In my 20s and 30s, I definitely wasn't aware of being part of history. Yet I was—not just because I was active in feminism's second wave, but simply because I was *there*: one of the vast number of people who made the '60s and '70s what they were. More strange, to me, is the recognition that history is being made at this moment. Your 16-year-old nephew, the youngsters we now call "millennials"—all of them are participating in whatever this is, right now. If human civilization survives long enough for them to become as old as we are now, their own grandchildren will come to them, wide-eyed, asking, "What was it like?" None of us has the clear vision of hindsight to encapsulate these times as readily as we can those longer-ago eras. I wonder if history will outlast this era of ours, such that future historians will have the opportunity to explain what's happening now and what happens next.
Looking back at our "history" provides some wonderful perspectives and reflection. But part of me wants to go back and live through it all over again.

Q: How to find each sub graph group in neo4j using py2neo We have stored 4 different sub graph in neo4j. All nodes and relationships have a property called "species" to indicate which sub graph the node or relationship is in. That means all nodes and relationships in sub graph "rice" have a property {"species":"rice"},and we also have other sub graphs: "maize","tair",...
My difficulty is to find all the sub graph label ("rice","maize","tair",...) using py2neo. I want to tell people have many species we have in the database.

A: The respective Cypher query is:
MATCH (n:Mylabel)
RETURN DISTINCT n.species

With py2neo you can run this query as follows:
from py2neo import Graph

graph = Graph()

q = "MATCH (n:Mylabel) RETURN DISTINCT n.species"
result = graph.cypher.execute(q)

for row in result:
    # collect your result
    print(row[0])

The History behind Cell Network Evolution
By Katherine Husmith on	 January 30, 2013 · Technology
The communications industry is continuously evolving and it helps to know the history of cell networks. The idea started with a theory that Clark Maxwell which is the theory of electromagnetic radiation. It was then used in 1901 by Guglielmo Marconi when he invented radio transmission. Then in late 1940s the modern telephony was introduced in the United Sates and then in Europe in 1950s.
These first mobile phones are highly confined. They are known to have rather poor service. Aside from that, those devices are really heavy and extremely expensive, unlike the gadgets that we have today.
1G: First Generation
The first generation (1G) mobile networks were introduced in 1970s. It was then referred to be as cellular, which was then known as "cell". The signals were being transmitted with help of towers. This is also known as the "Analog" era, where as the signals being transmitted were voice only which is made by their popular 1G system, Advanced Mobile Phone System (AMPS).
This then made the mobile phone market grew to about 30 to 50 percent annually with appearance of 1G network. It was then recorded that there were approximately 20 million subscribers in 1990.
2G: Second Generation (GSM and GPRS Networks)
Second set of mobile phones was then introduced in early 1990s. This was the time that mobile networks introduced the Global System for Mobile (GSM) communication technology. It makes use of digital modulation, where in it improve voice quality. That is why they consider this as the "digital" era, where in voice and limited data (less than 20kbps) are being transmitted.
Aside from that, it offers additional services for the subscribers such as paging, text messages, faxes, and voicemail. The data services that are limited to 2G are WAP, HSCSD, and MLS.
In late 1990s, 2.5G was introduced which included GPRS standard in order to deliver packet-switched data capabilities to GSM network users. The significance of this switch is due to the birth on intent and internet protocol. It does allow users to send data that is rich in graphics and that the dial up speed then increased to about 30kbps to 90kbps.
3G: Third Generation
This is considered to be the revolution of mobile telephones. It gives the users the ability to make use of audio, graphics and video applications.
The 3G network then increased the speed transmission up to 2mbps. Aside from that, the cellular 3G service that they offer is known as UMTS. It can also sustain higher data rates and open their way to the internet style application.
4G: Mobile Networks
With 4G network, it has the capability to transmit information with a rate up to 20mbps. It has the capability to accommodate Quality of Service (QoS) features. This makes it a much better network compared to its predecessors.
These QoS does help in prioritizing the traffic based on the type of application with the use of your bandwidth. This type of mobile networks is expected to have high performance streaming of multimedia content.
Given the fact that technology is quickly innovating. We can expect greater things to come with cell networks in the near futures. Thus, the history of cell network is like a book that has no ending.
When did you get your first cell phone?

Sausmarez Manor
Sausmarez Manor is a Queen Anne Colonial style house with a history going back to the 12th century. Sausmarez was built in the early 18th century by John Andros, and tours of the house display memorabilia from the Andros and Sausmarez families, as well as the very first Royal Navy uniform.
The Sausmarez family came from Scandinavia, by way of Normandy. From there they moved to Jersey, and then to Guernsey in the first half of the 13th century. The first Sausmarez Manor was built around this time, possibly by William de Saumareis. Only fragmentary stonework from the 13th-century manor house remains, including an outhouse foundation and a doorway arch.
Though one branch of the family later returned to France, the Sausmarez's stayed on in Guernsey, filling important official posts, and 6 members of the family served as Seigneurs of Sausmarez.
In 1557 the direct Sausmarez line died out and the estate passed through marriage to John Andrews, a Lieutenant to the island's governor, who had married Judith Sausmarez. Their son John, now known as John Andros rebuilt the medieval manor as a Tudor house at right angles to the earlier buildings.
A descendant was Sir Edmund Andros, Governor of the Colony of New York, New England, Virginia, Massachusetts, North Carolina, New Plymouth and New Jersey. Andros was responsible for changing the name of New Amsterdam to its current form, New York. Sir Edmund's will required his son and heir, John, to build a new house at Sausmarez within 5 years of his death, or face a hefty penalty of 500 pounds, payable to his cousin!
The heraldic gates to Sausmarez Manor
John, perhaps unwilling to face the fine, did indeed rebuild the Tudor house, in the early Georgian style we see today, with grey granite accentuated by reddish quoins. The symmetrical house stands 4 storeys high, with just 2 rooms on each floor. At the top of the house is a windows walk, giving excellent views over the island.
John's heir was Charles Andros, who promptly sold the house back to the Sausmarez family.
One famous member of the family was Captain Philip de Sausmarez (1710-1747), a naval officer who served with Commodore Anson and sailed around the world long before Captain Cook's celebrated voyage.
Philip is credited with designing the first naval uniform, and made a fortune in prize money for his role in the capture of Nusetra Senora da Capa Donga, a fabulously wealthy Spanish treasure ship. Bullion from the ship is on display in the manor house.
Philip was the son of Matthew de Sausmarez, an entrepreneurial man who combined a respectable career as an advocate with the more lucrative life of a privateer, using the anchorage at Freeport in Guernsey as a safe haven for launching raids against French, Spanish, and Dutch ships.
When John de Sausmarez regained his ancestral house from the Andros family he had a paire of ceremonial gates erected, topped by heraldic figures. The gates were designed by Sir Henry Cheers who also designed Philip de Sausmarez's memorial in Westminster Abbey.
The manor was extended in the Regency period by Thomas de Sausmarez, who needed more space for his enormous family. Thomas had 28 offspring, though some died in childhood and not all would have been resident at the same time, so it is easy to see why he needed more space. Very little remains of the Regency addition, for Thomas's heir, General George de Sausmarez, had it pulled down. He remodelled the interiors in Victorian style, adding a wealth of ornate wood carving.
The manor was spared damage during the German occupation in WWII. The Germans would have requisitioned the house, but the last owner, Sir Havilland de Sausmarez, had refused to install electric lights in the house, and as a result the German's did not want the property.
And perhaps to that happy accident of fate we owe the opportunity to visit probably the most interesting historic building in the Channel Islands, a Tudor/Georgian/Victorian house with its roots in the medieval period, full of historic interest and a rich family heritage.
The house is set in a superb subtropical garden, featuring exotic plants such as palm trees, bananas, ferns, and interspersed with quiet jungle glades.

Almost 12 years ago Down's syndrome came sharply into focus for me when my beautiful daughter, Amy, was born. Amy has Down's and had some of the physical challenges that accompany children with Down's. She was born with a large hole in the heart that required surgery at 3 weeks and again at 13 months. I can't lie, as it was a horrible time. Signing a consent form for open heart surgery on your own child is not easy. The staff at Birmingham Children's Hospital are all heroes in my eyes, and without them and the wonderful NHS system we often take for granted then my daughter wouldn't be here today. I cannot begin to fathom what impact that would have on me.
Nowadays, Amy is a healthy(ish) child – she takes after her dad and has a healthy appetite, but fortunately a healthier diet . She looks different, and has alopecia which means she hasn't had any hair for 5 years. She loves music, is off to see Little Mix in concert this summer, and likes to put on as much make-up and perfume as she can get away with. She is a doting sister to 2 younger brothers, and becomes increasingly independent with each passing month. The first thing she will do each morning is to come and see my wife and I and say "good morning" and give us a hug and kiss. This probably isn't normal for an 11-year old, but then again, what is normal these days? I don't mind as I am incredibly proud to have a child who is loving, caring and interested in what other people are doing.
My wife and I have enjoyed the continued support of family, friends and an education system that consider Amy as an equal, whilst providing additional support for her needs. We have never had any issues with Amy being treated as a lesser citizen (at least not in the UK), although I do believe that as a society we are more tolerant and understanding than in previous generations. I can't recall any children with disabilities and/ or learning difficulties at my schools when growing up in the 80s and 90s, but Amy has been accepted wherever she has been.
But why am I blogging about this, and using the company website to do this? Well, as a diverse company we celebrate people that are different. We are a family and there are others within Team Tisski who have children, siblings, relatives that face different challenges. We empathise and support each other with this. We also do our utmost to support worthy causes, and as I have blogged about previously, we donate £1,000 to a different charity each month. And we also offer our professional services wherever we can, and it feels timely in Down Syndrome Awareness Week to celebrate the work we have been doing with the Cheshire Down Syndrome Support Group (CDSSG).
We have configured Dynamics 365 CRM for CDSSG. They do a wonderful job for their members, and we can provide technology that makes it easier for unpaid volunteers to do what they need to. How could we not get involved?
And I hope you can get involved too. You might have a relative with Down's, or know somebody that does. Wear lots of socks, get involved in your local Down's group, donate to the Down's Syndrome Association, or just appreciate that somebody with Down's is a unique personality, with their own strengths and weaknesses, likes and dislikes, much like you and I. But they are more likely to tell them they love you, or give you a cuddle. Or in Amy's case, try and kiss her brothers when she has a face full of lipstick. I wouldn't change her for the world.

Our boys' team met with the Leslie Frost P.S. Lions yesterday for an exhibition game. Both teams played very well and gained experience to help prepare for upcoming tournaments. The Centurions edged out the Lions; hopefully a sign of what's to come in future games! Keep up the hard work, boys!


The Academy of Culinary Arts is a department in the College of Health and Human Services at IUP. Our first program was first offered in 1989. Accredited by the American Culinary Federation, the Academy of Culinary Arts offers students a comprehensive culinary education with an instructional cost substantially less than other nationally recognized culinary programs.
Students who begin their studies in Culinary Arts may choose to continue into Baking and Pastry upon successful completion of the culinary arts program.
No. Approximately 50 percent of our students come from career/vocational school programs and 50 percent come from traditional academic programs.
No, although some experience in the hospitality industry is helpful. A love of cooking is required.
The majority of students admitted have high school GPAs ranging from 2.5 to 4.0+. We consider all aspects of the student's application, and we may require an interview and/or shadow day if we need additional information to assess the student's ability to successfully complete the culinary arts program.
What SAT or ACT score is required?
We do not require SAT or ACT. We encourage students to submit official scores, though, as some of our culinary scholarships do have a SAT/ACT requirement.
What campus is the culinary program located on?
Culinary and baking majors begin their studies on the IUP Punxsutawney campus. Students study for three semesters (fall, spring, and summer) in Punxsutawney, and complete the certificate with an externship (industry experience) semester off-campus. After completing the externship, students choosing the Culinary Associate Degree option will complete 12 credits of liberal arts studies on the Punxsutawney campus or take online classes. Those continuing on for the BS degree programs will complete their studies on the Indiana campus.
How do my students apply to the culinary arts programs?
All students who are interested in majoring in culinary arts or baking and pastry apply directly through Culinary Admissions. Online and paper applications are available. Applicants will receive an admissions decision within two weeks after all admissions requirements and supporting documentation have been received.

Q: Fast method to rotate image in .NET Compact Framework in C# Is there a fast way to rotate images in .NET Compact Framework.
I've found ways to do 90, 180,270, rotations but would like to be able to rotate images free form in similar speed.

A: 90-, 180- or 270-degrees rotations require no calculation at all, only moving some data. On the other hand, free-angle rotations require heavy calculations. So this will never ba as fast as right-angle rotations...

A: You can use OpenNetCF's ImageUtil class to do this (it's the "Rotate" method you're looking for). The method takes the bitmap and a (float) angle as parameters. Find the specs here:

Q: Login through Instagram in android Before implementing it I'm studying it and researching information about it but I didn't find any helpful material so that i come here to you respectful guys who can me guide on it how can I perform login through Instagram. There is not any helpful tutorial about it like login through Facebook. Helps from you will be appreciated. Thanks

A: This question is not much valuable now, but as instagram grows and becomes irreplaceable, instagram login may have second priority, (first will be always google).
There is no known way from firebase free version  to login through instagram. Currently firebase supports only these many ways:
Email/Password, Phone, Google, Play Games, Game Center, Facebook, Twitter, GitHub, Yahoo, Microsoft, Apple, Anonymous.
You can use firebase Blaze plan for this, and you will not find much support on the internet for this. In this website you will not have to write server side code: Use Instagram Sign In with Firebase https://github.com/firebase/functions-samples/tree/master/instagram-auth
This also may help: https://auth0.com/docs/connections/social/instagram


A group of senior peers has called on the UK competition watchdog to investigate whether Facebook and Google's dominance means the digital advertising market is working fairly for businesses and consumers.
Lords are worried digital ad market is "notoriously murky"
In its report, UK advertising in a digital age, published today, the House of Lords Communications Committee said: "Consumers do not pay for free online services, but in exchange they must give up their data.
The findings come after senior figures from across the industry gave evidence to the group of peers, including culture minister Matt Hancock, WPP founder and chief executive Sir Martin Sorrell, as well as representatives from Google and Facebook.
Phil Smith, director general of ISBA, told the committee that advertisers feel Facebook and Google's dominance has reduced the amount of choice they have within digital media. He also expressed concern that this situation will affect consumers.
"There is something around the way in which the platforms have struck their relationship with consumers when they go advertising-free first and then introduce advertising over time, where the contract is not quite as transparent as it has been in other media," Smith said.
The CMA has previously declined to conduct a market study in this area as they "had not found any detriment to consumers on preliminary consideration," and because its ability to conduct such a study was limited by its lack of resources, the report explained.
The committee urged the Government to ensure that the CMA has the resources to take on the burden of cases that would otherwise be dealt with by the European Commission, post-Brexit.
Lord Gilbert, chairman of the committee, said: "Digital advertising has quickly become the most significant form of advertising by spending. But the market for delivering digital advertising to consumers is notoriously 'murky': businesses which buy advertising services don't know how their money is being spent, whether their advertising is being displayed next to content which is obscene or which supports terrorism, or whether their ads are being viewed by a human being at all."
He added that to restore the public's trust in advertising as a whole, the industry must commit to adhering to proper standards.
Commenting on the report's recommendations, Stephen Woodford, chief executive of the Advertising Association, said: "Across the industry many organisations and trade bodies are working to ensure it continues to be a sustainable, competitive and trusted industry. The AA's Trust in Advertising working group, chaired by Phil Smith, and [IPA director] Paul Bainsfair, and involving senior figures from across our industry, will lead the way in ensuring our industry is on the front foot in meeting these challenges."
The committee found that the UK's advertising industry is a success story which added £120bn to the UK's economy and supported over 1 million jobs in 2016, but is reliant on a constant influx of international talent.
The Advertising Association conducted a survey, cited in the committee's report, of 132 advertising companies in 2017 which demonstrated the extent of integration of international talent in the UK advertising industry. The survey revealed 69% of companies employed staff from outside of the UK. On average, 17% of an agency's workforce was made up of EU nationals while 10% were from the rest of the world.
Many industry witnesses were concerned that the extension of the UK visa system to EU nationals would be detrimental to the advertising industry.
Leo Rayman, chief executive of Grey London, told the committee that such an extension would "slow down our ability to win business, convert it and make it work".
James Murphy, group chief executive of Adam & Eve/DDB, argued that the free movement of people meant that there are EU citizens with the right skills based in the UK and "we do not have to go to their countries to hire them specifically for a job. They are here."
As the industry's global success relies on an international workforce and its ability to attract and retain international workers, the committee recommended that the government negotiates deals with other countries under which international workers with a job offer in the advertising industry will have the right to work in the UK.
It also recommended the introduction of a creative industries' freelance visa.
"UK advertising, like our fellow industries, awaits the results of the Brexit negotiations as much rides on this in terms of our future success. As such, we appreciate the recognition of the huge value overseas talent brings to British advertising and the report's recommendation that the country retain access to the world's brightest and best talent after we leave the EU," Wooford said.
If the industry is serious about increasing diversity, it should "discontinue informal working and recruitment practices, such as unpaid internships, which present a barrier to groups from lower socioeconomic groups", the committee recommended as a month's unpaid internship in London costs a minimum of £1,019 excluding travel expenses, The Sutton Trust estimated.
"The Government should clarify the law on unpaid internships. This will allow the advertising industry to access a larger talent pool which better reflects the advertisers' audiences," the report said.
Bainsfair told the Committee that the industry had realised that unpaid work placements are "just not acceptable and people are being much more responsible now about making sure that these placements, as they are called, do get paid for their efforts".


In your weakness, there is strength!
Note, every 'triumph story' begins with a fall, a failure, a road block, or a despairing experience. Perhaps this means we should welcome failure as much as we welcome success. Every one of us has failed in some way or another. The failure is not in the fall, but in the not getting up. We wallow in our failure and devote our energy and time toward figuring out why it happened, to insure it will never happen again. The real question is not 'why poor me,' but rather what am I to learn from this experience? What am I to do as a result of this experience?
In my journey, failure has been more important than success in finding the meaning of my life. It was in my failures that I developed humility, endurance and learned the value of life over the acquisition of things. It is in failure that people become strong and move to the next level of fullness. It was the failures that taught me to surrender to the Divine Intent for my life and the path I was really meant to take. My father stated that he never learned life's secrets when things were good; everything he learned came when things were a challenge. The point is, engage your failure rather than running from it. Use your failure to learn patience; use it to become more resilient. Can you be joyful in times of failure? Finding joy during this time is when you are made strong. Happiness can come from success and the accumulation of earthly goods, but happiness is not sustainable. Happiness many times is based on things that by nature, change. Joy is an ever-present state that comes from the ability to find good in all things, even situations that are not necessarily good.
Recently we visited Cuba, not the tourist part of Cuba, but rather the small towns where people live with almost nothing. We found that even after years of oppression, they were still filled with a joy about life that was unprecedented to us. They owned nothing, worked for almost nothing and had none of the things we take for granted, yet were still joyful, loving, caring people. Their faith was revealed in the way they lived.
"They are pressured in every way but not crushed; they are perplexed but not in despair, they are persecuted but not abandoned; we are struck down but not destroyed."


"Hispanicize Organizers Launch #HispanicizeRewind Video Series with Rebroadcast of Media Entrepreneurship for Hispanic Journalists Sessions"
MIAMI, FL – April 8, 2015 – (HISPANICIZE WIRE) – Organizers of the Hispanicize Event today launched the annual #HispanicizeRewind Video Series with a batch of four new videos from the Media Entrepreneurship for Hispanic Journalists sessions that were held at Hispanicize 2015.
The Media Entrepreneurship for Hispanic Journalists sessions were sponsored by Wells Fargo, the event's official bank partner and produced by students from the Miami Media School.
"This ongoing series on media entrepreneurship resonates strongly for Hispanic journalists at a time when many of them are literally redefining their careers and even experimenting with new business models," said Manny Ruiz, founder of the Hispanicize event and himself a former journalist turned media entrepreneur.
This popular session focused on the latest ways digital content creators can creatively monetize your blog, vlogs and other digital footprints. The session explored the many different business models successful digital influencers are using to generate revenue, tips on monetizing, How to create your own niche business model based on your interests and key mistakes to avoid. The session featured Lynn Ponder, Founder, Web City Girls; Matt Cherry, Founder, iBlog magazine; Kathy Cano-Murillo, Founder of Crafty Chica; and Lori Ruff, Chief Brand Evangelist, ALPFA.org, The Linked In Diva. The session was moderated by Ricardo Velazquez, Business Development Officer, Wells Fargo.
The elite media entrepreneurs, the ones who have done the best for themselves, all have in common a powerful savvy for building a personal and company brand. In this session two top Hispanic media entrepreneurs – one, a working media personality with more than 1 million fans on Facebook and another a highly accomplished crafting industry leader and author – discussed how they discovered and built their brands. This session featured Kathy Cano-Murillo, Founder, Crafty Chica and Alberto Sardiñas, Radio and Television Personality. The session was moderated by Bill Gato, CEO, Hispanicize Wire.
The digital platform has made it possible for many journalists to leave the news industry and pursue new collaborative or individual ventures. This session takes a look at some of the most successful entrepreneurial enterprises and ideas about the next best startups for 2015. Featured speakers are Brian Meece, Founder, Rocket Hub; Kate Albright-Hanna, Founder and CEO, Tarbell Industries and Chris Dell, Founder, Go Baller. The session was moderated by Octavio Blanco, Financial News Editor of CNNMoney.
Blogging may be a relatively new profession that's usually done from home, but that doesn't mean it's not covered by the same principles of finance and entrepreneurship. In this session two media entrepreneurs discussed how they took their platforms to the next level by treating them like small businesses that had to adopt the fundamentals of running a business. The session explored how to create a business plan, how to separate your business finances from your personal finances and how to establish your business credit. Featured speakers are Marcos Orozco, Founder, Gentepreneur and Deborah Deras, Speaker, Author and Marketing Consultant, DebraDeras.com and Hector Garcia, Principal Relationship Manager of Wells Fargo.

As the worldwide proliferation of coworking spaces continues apace, the key findings from International Workplace Group's (IWG) 2019 Global Workplace Survey "Welcome to Generation Flex – The Employee Power Shift", reveals some of the major trends driving growth in the sector.
In Toronto, as is being seen globally, coworking is definitely the new normal as flexible workers and more Canadian companies, large and small, recognize and appreciate how coworking's agility and flexibility can benefit their employment or businesses.
With the Canadian jobless rates hovering below 6 percent, and candidates essentially demanding flexible work arrangements, coworking has become an excellent strategy for both attracting and retaining highly-desirable talent. Significantly, coworking also facilitates a company's ability to seamlessly hire top talent in different locations without securing dedicated office space, which drives company growth and profit.
Coworking enables companies to scale up quickly, especially in new markets, with minimal logistics. Companies can explore inroads into new regions without the incurring the risk associated with traditional leasing. One-off projects can be undertaken minus major overhead costs. Coworking workspaces allow companies to improve agility and scalability via the provision of shareable workspace, technology, and administrative support. Companies, regardless of size, recognize the agility that coworking allows.
Coworking offers great opportunities for networking, idea exchange, business development, as well as socializing which leads to higher levels of job satisfaction. In turn, this manifests as an improved work-life balance. Additionally, when workers control where they work, they report combining their personal and professional lives is less challenging. As an example, coworking can often enhance work-life balance via a reduced commute.
Coworking definitely makes solid financial sense! By allowing individuals, including freelancers, contract employees, entrepreneurs, along with small businesses — especially when first starting out — to share the expenses associated with a workplace, coworking demands significantly less of a financial investment. While start-ups and flexible workers were once the typical coworking client, tellingly, larger businesses and established corporations seeking to cut costs and add agility, are increasingly signing on for the coworking immersion.
Coworking in 2019: The Takeaway!
Beyond fulfilling workers' demands, flexible working as enabled by coworking, is measurably good for the economy. A recent report estimated that by 2030, "the US could see an economic boost of as much as $4.5 trillion annually from flexible working, while China and India could gain respectively $1.4 trillion and $376 billion extra annually." As coworking has grown from a small movement into a global phenomenon, so too has its potential to positively impact the lives of the workers it serves.
You can discover an exceptional coworking office experience at The Professional Centre (TPC), the Toronto coworking space where more is standard. If you'd like more information on how our shared office space can work for your business, call The Professional Centre today at 416-367-1055 or contact us.

Q: Ruby Error Help, Enumerator I have some code that worked locally but when it ran RSPEC on the server I had a build fail.
Here is my code:
def sort_software_list(software_list)
  pkgs = JSON.load(File.read("#{Rails.root}/lib/tasks/pkgs.json"))
  hash = pkgs.map { |e| e["name"] }.each_with_index.to_h
  sorted_list = software_list.sort_by { |e| hash[e.name]}
  sorted_list
end

It takes a file in the Rails project which is just a json file. The function takes in software_list and sorts it with the correct order that the json file is in.
So my error on the failing rspec is:
undefined method `to_h' for #<Enumerator:0x0000000db66b30>

I am having trouble thinking of a reason this is happening. Like I said it is working locally as far as I can tell. Any thoughts?

A: I'm willing to bet that your local machine has Ruby 2.1.0 or greater and your server has a lesser version. Enumerator didn't get a to_h method (via Enumerable) until Ruby 2.1.0. An easy workaround is to use the Hash.[] method instead, after converting the Enumerator to an Array:
hash = Hash[ pkgs.map {|e| e["name"] }.each_with_index.to_a ]

You may also find it useful to manage your project's Ruby version with rbenv or RVM to ensure that you're using the same version in development and in production.

Do you crack open the Champagne at the mere mention of Christmas? Perhaps you wait until the Queen's speech to enjoy a clink or two with family? Either way, you'll be glad you stumbled upon our blog today.
If you have a bottle or two chilling in your fridge, did you know you can use it for more than just drinking? Over on the Cosmopolitan site, we gleaned a few tips and tricks you can put into action over Christmas and beyond. The first is this: make a Champagne sorbet float. All you need to do is pour the wine over a scoop of fruity sorbet for extra fizz and an adult version of a root beer float – how's about that for added festive sparkle, eh?
And here's another tip to add oomph to your Champagne: place a handful of pomegranate arils in your flute. It's a favourite of Nigella Lawson, who calls them jewels. She reckons they look like tiny rubies floating in your glass – and she'd be right! They taste great too.
If Champagne's a little out of your budget this Christmas, you'll probably have a few bottles of wine in instead – and here's how you can make the most of the festive table drink! Click the link, as The Daily Mail has more than a few suggestions you'll love, from removing the cork with a piece of ribbon, to transforming the wine itself into ice cubes.
Oooh, there's always one who starts on the brandy before lunch, isn't there? But did you know there's more than one way to drink it? Head over here to find out how else you can enjoy the tipple this Christmas. The article suggests that, in place of brandy, you could try Armagnac. It's "a grape brandy named for the region of Armagnac in the southwest of France. It is made from a blend of Colombard and Ugni Blanc grapes and distilled once in column stills. Then it is aged for at least two years in French oak, resulting in a more rustic brandy than Cognac. After aging different aged brandies are blended to make a consistent product." So, if you like your brandies and you like them strong, give this tip a go this Christmas.
Try something unique with coffee this December! It looks like someone's added a drop of food colouring to their cappuccino to take their favourite Christmas morning drink from nought to 60 on the festive scale. But there are other hacks you'll enjoy, too. You can make your own latte to rival the high street coffee chains, for example – find out how by clicking the link.

1. Hi Thriller! Let's start with the real life stuff.. How old are you? What are you doing for a living?
Currently I work a lot: half time I work in an office for pregnant women. I do councelling and do school projects about contraception. At another half time job I'm working in an institute for empirical social research. And by the way I'm graduating.
In my free time I love arts and culture, some years ago I founded a small association for free time artists. At monthly meetings we draw and paint and once in a year we open an exhibition. Sometimes I do some music with friends and, and, and... my wife is some times fed up with all that stuff!
2. Was the Amstrad CPC your first contact with a computer ?
Indeed. The 6128 was the first computer I put a finger on. I still can remember the room where I did. It was the one of a friend's father. The friend later became LTP of GOS (see below).
3. Before 1990, it was not that easy to get introduced to demoscene technics, such as rasters or split-screen programming. How did you learn those technics ?
It's hard to remember. Somehow I got a maxam assembler and somewhere I read some basics about that programming language.
First Demostuff I learned from people of the CPC scene: easy stuff like software scrolling for example. LTP, Excalibur and me we all owned a CPC 6128 and lived in the same region. We started to visit CPC parties and there I think I often talked to other scene guys. I think that's where I learned about these things.
Especially the split screen I remember I learned from the Magician of MERLYN. I visited him at his home in a city north of Germany. We cracked up the whole night ´cause we definitively shared the same sense of humor. We were about 16 or something and his mother was so angry that she separated us at 2 o'clock in the morning. That was the weekend I learned about split screens.
4. Do you remember which development tools you used back in the time? Did you have a special hardware configuration? (ROMboard, 3"1/2 drive..).
As I mentioned before i used MAXAM assembler for programming. For Graphix I used OCP Art studio of course. LTP owned it before I started programming. I loved to paint my favourite record covers with that tool. That was in the 1980es and we all listended to vinyl records – besides of tapes. I remember that I painted for example an LP-cover of an from the Heart rock band.
5. As a demomaker, you were first member of GOS ("Guild Of Swappers"). Why this name? What were your activities there? Was swapping synonym of piracy?
Let me put it like this: We loved cpc games! ;) and then we started at the time when the graphic adventure The Guild of Thieves was released which we found awesome. So later we chose a similar name.
6. Then you created Cadjo Clan with Weee! Do you remember the context at this time?
Yeah, I do. I got to know Weee! at a party in the north of Germany. I must have been 14 or 15 years old. When LTP, Excalibur and I entered the party everything seemed very silent. We seemed to "disturb the peace" because Weee! later told me when we came in everything changed somehow and he thought "now the nice party is over".
But later he and I were playing Forgotten Worlds for a long time on that party and that was how we started to get friends. Later I visited him at home and we started programming and doing music together. What we loved most was to call KNS in the night about 3 o'clock and to make fun of him! Well, I hope he has forgiven us in between! We released some demoparts together for some party demos for example.
By the way: today I love the gos party demo The Revenge a lot more than Terrific Demo. My favorite of my own demos is the Arnie part with some split scrollers and Arnold Schwarzenegger faces that pull out their tongues.
When I coded it I accidentally ejected the disc while saving and the code went broken. That was at Weee!'s home – and now hold your breath: Weee! wrote a special disc code in one night to read the broken disc and bring back the code! hot guy isn't he? Only because of this these was a finished arnie-part.
But some time before MegaParty Demo, Weee! and I decided to do a complete megademo. We needed a name. That day Chris was wearing a sweater signed Gadjo Clan. We misread it, named ourself Cadjo Clan and noticed the mistake years later yet.
If I remember it correctly Terrific Demo was released before all these other demos.
It wasn't exactly the first one I've seen but The Demo for example was released later. Wasn't it? In any case it was not a reaction to other CPC megademos.
We've seen some megademos at other systems like Commodore Amiga or Atari ST and we wanted to do something similar. Weee! and I wrote all parts. Weee! also wrote the disc routines. I remember that we were coding the last parts short time before X-mas and my older sister visited us at home but I had no time for her because I had to finish the demo.
8. What were your best memories of your past Amstrad CPC activities?
When my first split screen scroller worked I was dancing through our house after midnight! That was an amazing moment. I only had seen one other not released split screen scroller before and it seemed to me like a miracle because in that time there were only slow and blurry software scrollers.
Another great party was the Euro Meeting 1 in Reims. that was the 1st foreign journey with my 1st own car. Excalibur, Weee!, LTP, BSC and I went together. I could not sleep in Reims because I had too much coffee and on the way home we were that exhausted that we nearly got into a fight – at 1st with passengers along the road, - later among ourselves. but everything went ok... sounds horrible somehow. but it wasn't! We were all good friends, and we were just about 18 or 19 years old.
What makes me sad sometimes is that Weee! and I wanted to code a new paint program (with a german working title Mal Mit Mir which we found very, very funny!) but we never finished it. It would have been too much work and we finished school that time. But it would have been a cool project.
Another thing would have loved to finish was the intro for the game Killing Fist. I had finished a lot of the code but our graphist did not finish the pictures. So the whole thing fizzeled out.
9. What were your computing activities after the CPC in 1991? Did you pursue programming on 16 bits machines ? (Atari, Amiga and the likes).
No, I never owned a 16 bit. After finishing school my computer activity changed a lot. It took about 10 years until I started programming again. I was hired as a working student in a big German company and programmed an SQL database. I never again did some demos or similar stuff. For research I program some statistic tools and that sometimes reminds me where it all began: in that chamber of LTP's father with the CPC 6128.
10. Did you participate to some meetings at the time? Please tell us more about those experiences.
Well, I think I chatted about parties most of this interview text. :) that might be enough. Hope it doesn't bore you?
11. CPCWiki (http://www.cpcwiki.eu/index.php/Cadjo_Clan) mentions you made an Audio-project in the early 2000s, conjointly with Weee!/Cadjo Clan. It's amazing! Can you tell us a bit more about it ? Do you still see Weee! on a regular basis?
Weee! and his friend Michael used to play synthesizers. We started to cover some Depeche Mode songs in the 1990es. I was the singer and I was horrible. But, you know...! The band was called Pink Celebration. Sounds really, really 80es, doesn't it?
Later I started to play the guitar and by that time fortunately I got some training with singing. :) Weee! and I then did some other cover songs. We did Walking in my shoes from Depeche Mode again for example and 2001 it went to a tribute sampler to Depeche Mode featuring separate other cover bands. The sampler was called Songs from fans with devotion. We tributed as Cadjo Clan which was a nice reminiscence to our CPC time.
We also did a cover of the Swedish synthie pop band S.P.O.C.K. which in the beginning wrote songs about star trek. Weee! and I loved star trek. The name of the song we covered was edge of forever which is named after of the most awesome episode of the old series. At a live concert we handed over a CD with our cover song to the singer – but sadly we never got a reaction from the band. :) However, it was so much fun!!
What is really nice: Weee! and I still see each other sometimes. After some years moving from town to town my wive and I settled down in the city where he lived because it's really nice here and I had in mind to study informatics like he did. But that was a bad idea. But as I told you before – I found something else that suits me more. Often he and another friend of ours spend our birthdays together and stuff like this. Some weekends I spend working on my graduation and sometimes I go to Weee!'s place just to have some inspiration.
12. Do you still follow the Amstrad CPC demoscene? Do you have some special comments to give about it?
Just once in a year I google what has happened to CPC in between and I am fascinated by all that stuff. I can't believe what demomakers still do. Most of all I loved DemoIzArt. Some days ago I saw Star Sabre and Sub Hunter just because I read your interview with the programmer. I was like "this is no cpc stuff!" I was very, very impressed!
But I ask myself – what is the force that moves all these guys to work so hard on this very, very old system? I don't think they all grew up with it like I did and couldn't keep their fingers from it – did they?
I read about that now for the first time. Sounds extremely funny to me. But why not? Some guys try plan travelling to mars and never come back. :) Well, just kidding! I'd love to see a cpc party in 2014. Do you exchange David Whittacker tunes as mp3?
14. It's already the end of this interview. Do you have some special words to add?
Thank you a million Kalle for answering those questions ! It's definitively a part of the past that gets alive once again today.
Finally, thanks to CPCPower and CPCWiki for their invaluable source of information.

I love the thrill of discovering a historical romance set in an unusual time period, especially when the author evokes this unfamiliar world so clearly and compellingly I want to find more books just like it. Judith James deftly achieves this feat in Libertine's Kiss, a sensual romance set in Restoration England (1660s) under King Charles II.
Lady Elizabeth Walters is a demure Puritan widow whose fortunes were destroyed under the repressive Cromwell Protectorate. Her dearest childhood companion was Lord William de Veres, now the king's poet—a debauched and cynical reprobate who's never stopped dreaming about his winsome childhood sweetheart and their fanciful adventures in Faerieland. When the Stuart king's return to England throws Elizabeth into William's path once more, William's dissolute nature doesn't prevent him from vowing to help Elizabeth regain her lost lands. He concludes her best chance for success lies in becoming the king's latest mistress.
Charismatic King Charles Stuart is enchanted by the virtuous widow, and the plan seems likely to succeed—with one problem. William begins to suspect he wants Elizabeth for himself. Yet he's never been faithful to his lovers, and she's unwilling to become another prize mare in the handsome poet's stable of beauties.
The frivolous splendor of the Stuart court, Elizabeth's magical transformation from Puritan goodwife to siren, and this cynical dark hero's slow journey to redemption elevate this evocative, passionate, beautifully researched historical romance above the ordinary. Consequently, Libertine's Kiss makes a delightful read!

Lebanese Police Arrest Smuggler for Hiding Drugs in Rugs, Shipping Them Via Post
(Shutterstock/ File Photo)
The Internal Security Forces' Central Drug Enforcement Office has arrested a man suspected of trying to smuggle drugs abroad by hiding them in rugs and shipping them through Lebanon's national post, a statement from the ISF reported Saturday.
The Lebanese national, identified as H.D., born in 1951, was arrested on Oct. 11 after he allegedly attempted to smuggle about 15,000 Captagon pills inside five rugs to neighboring Arab countries through LibanPost.
Seizures of Captagon – an amphetamine traditionally mixed with caffeine that is popular among partygoers and front-line militia fighters – have surged over the past several years, especially in Lebanon and neighboring countries.
When arresting H.D., the ISF seized the rugs as well as paraphenalia used for producing the Captagon.
During investigations, H.D. reportedly confessed to the crime and admitted that he had help from another Lebanese national he identified as H.H., born in 1958. H.H. has nine warrants out for arrest, which include charges of drug trafficking that date between 1981 and 2012, the ISF said.

President Trump visits Seoul next month to deal with N. Korea, bolster ROK-U.S. ties
- For a summit with President Moon
President Donald Trump of the United States will visit Seoul next month for a summit with President Moon Jae-in of Korea and is expected to discuss with Moon focusing on North Korea and the bilateral alliance. This was announced by Seoul and Washington on Wednesday.
The U.S President'ss visit will be in conjunction with his travel to Japan to attend the G20 summit slated for June 28-29.
The Presidential Office of Cheong Wa Dae in Seoul said that the two sides have agreed to discuss the detailed schedule through further consultations.
This photo shows South Korean President Moon Jae-in (L) meeting with U.S. President Donald Trump at the White House in Washington on April 11, 2019. (Yonhap)
The two leaders plan to discuss ways to establish a permanent peace regime on the Korean Peninsula through the North's complete denuclearization, as well as to strengthen the bilateral alliance, Cheong Wa Dae spokeswoman Ko Min-jung said.
The White House also announced the visit.
"President Trump and President Moon will continue their close coordination on efforts to achieve the final, fully verified denuclearization of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea," White House press secretary Sarah Sanders said in a statement.
"The two leaders will also discuss ways to strengthen the United States–Republic of Korea alliance and the friendship between our two peoples."
South Korea's formal name is the Republic of Korea, while the DPRK is North Korea's official name.
Trump last traveled to South Korea in November 2017 amid heightened tensions over North Korea's tests of nuclear weapons and ballistic missiles potentially capable of striking the U.S.
Last year saw a flurry of diplomacy aimed at denuclearizing the North, including three summits between Moon and North Korean leader Kim Jong-un and an unprecedented U.S.-North Korea summit between Trump and Kim.
Trump and Kim held a second summit in Vietnam in February to negotiate the North's denuclearization in exchange for sanctions relief.
After that meeting ended without a deal, the two sides have struggled to break the impasse.
Moon traveled to Washington last month to hold talks with Trump and attempt to revive the negotiations.
Tensions have renewed after North Korea fired a series of projectiles, including short-range missiles, into the East Sea on May 4 and 9.
The U.S. announced last week that it has for the first time seized a North Korean cargo vessel suspected of carrying coal exports in violation of U.N. sanctions on the regime.

Infectious disease research is a triathlon
Dealing with viruses, bacteria and other pathogens requires many approaches
Jeffrey Bouley
Let's face it, some diseases are easier than others to get a handle on and identify treatments that can rein them in. Cardiovascular disease is probably an easier target than diabetes and is definitely an easier target than neurological ailments. Cancer comprises myriad variants and remains a long haul. And then there is infectious disease—a multitude of pathogens that mutate and sometimes become resistant, and entirely new ones that just pop out of seemingly nowhere.
If many diseases are a hard-run sprint and still others are marathons, infectious disease is one of the areas that's more like a triathlon.
We're dealing with that now in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic with a virus that's decided to not only endure but also recently unleash a more infectious variant on us, and it's not like other problems such as drug-resistant bacteria and so many other challenges went away to give us space to take a breath.
This issue, we have a Focus Feature on vaccines and, as you can probably guess, COVID will loom large in that feature. Last month we had a Special Report on infectious disease and, wisely, our features editor, Randall C Willis, decided not to take the "easy" route and talk about the novel coronavirus because it's about more than this pandemic. And it's about more than vaccines.
As Randy noted in that feature, vaccines are great, but they don't cover all our needs. People will still become infected with viruses, so we need antiviral therapeutics as well. We cannot become so focused in the race against disease that we neglect one area for another. Again, it's a triathlon. You can't just be good at running, swimming, or cycling. One skill won't carry you to victory.
I was also reminded of the long-haul nature of infectious disease drug discovery and development as I looked back at an email from late 2020 in which the European Medicines Agency (EMA) endorsed a statement by the International Coalition of Medicines Regulatory Authorities (ICMRA) urging vaccines researchers and investigators, academia, regulators, and the pharmaceutical industry to continue COVID-19 vaccine trials beyond the time when the pre-defined cases of COVID-19 disease for final analysis in a trial have been reached.
"Vaccines will be a key component in overcoming COVID-19, and we must ensure that robust and convincing evidence is being generated to enable the continuous assessment of their benefits and risks," wrote Emer Cooke, chair of ICMRA and EMA's executive director.
See? Even if you're focused just on vaccines, it's a marathon—and maybe still a triathlon.
The speed with which we have now reached the point of apparently effective vaccines has been astounding. The level of cooperation among various stakeholders, some of the competitors—and the speed with which regulators have approved new vaccines to push back COVID—is a wonder to behold. But we're still in for the long haul, so all the best to all of you in this race. May you never suffer from tunnel vision and may the successes keep coming.

We have a wide experience like wholesaler of meat, experience that joined to our meat variety offer turns us into one of the main companies of the sector. An important step was gived in 2017, with the creation and set up of a new line of business.
The setting of some modern installations with 4.000m2, endowed with the last technology for the preparation, freezing and storage of frozen Meat, they mark a before and an afterwards in the company. With a capacity of production of 4 million kilos, opens a new horizon of growth and expansion.
In the actuality we are working the national market with a coverage of practically 60% of the territory.
In 2018 the strategic plan of intentionalization was launched. To give support to this growth, Mercacarn has some professional human resources in all his departments in a total of 51 people.
Quality, freshness and flavour. Those are the signals of identity of the products that distribute in Merca-Carn and the reason by which increasingly customers trust we to resupply his businesses.
QUALITY MERCACARN. THE QUALITY FOR US ALWAYS COME FIRST.
The department of quality positions like a pillar inside the company. The team of technicians and veterinary ensures that all our productive process fulfil with the rules and the requirements dictated by the direction.
