My name is Raimar Guevara but If you want you can call me Sakuranko. Because that is the name of my blog, before I though that "Sakuranko didn´t have a real meaning but I was confused and that is funny because I know so little about japanese. And before I think this has the same meaning that Sakurako but that is not true because in japanese a letter can made the difference.
And that is funny because one of my favorite books ever is Alice in Wonderland and she is really confused for me~ I feel sometimes like her. And this was a completely coincidence because after five years blogging is where I found the real meaning behind the name of my blog. But I feel is pretty acurate with me. Sincerely I was really confused.
I´m a girl who loves books, makeup, anime, manga, and animated films. Most of my favorite movies are animated. I can spend hours reading books and manga, I love to read. The anime is one of those things that I love also. I love vampires and all that thematic. I love it the japanese culture and I hope sometime soon travel to Japan.
Lovely blog Sakuranko :3 thanks for your veeeery specific reviews I think that allmost nobody on youtube does the swatches on their own face... specifically the eye shadow swatches :) I alsospeak in Spanish cause I live in Chile :) greatings !!


If you've been following the #socadl hashtag on Twitter the last week or so you would have seen some ranting directed at mainstream journos hating on social media.
The most recent of these came in the Sunday Mail, where tweeting was compared to 'mind-farting' and social media is enabling a generation of rudeness and selfishness.
Clearly these are people with no idea about social media and how it works. All they see is what they want to see.
The power of traditional media is predicated on the fact that the historically, the barriers to entry to become a publisher and thus be heard are insanely high and that being a journalist meant having exclusive access to stories as well as some talent to write. This scarcity meant that you could only find news that the publishers deemed worthy.
The emergence of new technologies including social media, however, has seen this power gradually shift from traditional media publishers to the hands of the people. These tools mean that everybody now has the capacity to be both a publisher and a journalist – take this blog, for example.
This scares the hell out of most traditional media outlets because we no longer rely on them solely to tell us what's going on. They no longer control the news cycle as it now happens 24/7. In fact, you can expect the number of stories that break on social media to grow.
Traditional media is deluding itself by thinking that social media is irrelevant and/or dangerous. The very fact that these stories are becoming more frequent points to this very fear.
However, the revolution is happening with or without them and if they are to survive they must rethink their attitude toward social media and see it for the opportunity it is to reach out and actually interact with their audience, and not for the negative hype. For every offensive Facebook page, there are a dozen more that are genuinely useful and advance thought and conversation.
That's right, conversation. Because that's something traditional media by by being the very definition of broadcaster has very little concept of.
To quote the Cluetrain Manifesto, "markets are conversations". You only need to look at the furore surrounding the BP and Nestle's recent disasters to know that social media is where that conversation is happening today.

Where is the Pearl River Delta?
Hong Kong is an administrative region within the Pearl River Delta in Guangdong Province, China. Editorial credit: Hit1912 / Shutterstock.com
The Pearl River Delta is in the Guangdong province of China. It is the area adjoining the Pearl River estuary where the Pearl River pours into the South China Sea. The area is very popular for its incredible infrastructure and thriving economy. It hosts a lot of major electronic and garment manufacturing industries. The Pearl River Delta was named the world largest megacity by the World Bank, superseding Tokyo. The region has nine zones which include Zhongshan, Zhao Qing, Foshan, Foshan, Guangzhou, Jiangmen, Shenzhen, Foshan, Dongguan, Huizhou, and the special administrative regions of Hong Kong and Macao.
The Pearl River Delta is made up of cities located along the Pearl River estuary, where it flows into the South China Sea. The zone occupies an area of around 70,000 square miles. The Pearl River Delta climate is a humid sub-tropical climate with an average annual temperature of 23°C. The area experiences heavy rainfall during the monsoon months between April and September with annual rainfall of about 1,700 millimeters and an annual sunshine amount between 1,900 and 2,300 hours. The different features found in the Pearl River Delta are wetlands, estuary, lowland, plain, dry land, and upland hill. The Pearl River Delta comprises Guangzhou which is the provincial capital city, as well as Shenzhen and Zhuhai which are the Special Economic Zones.
Located in Southeastern China along the Pearl River estuary, the Pearl River Delta is highly populated and has a very high rate of urbanization. So far, the Pearl Delta is the highest populated area the world with an estimated population of over 1000 million people. The population in this region also includes immigrants from other parts of the country and the world. A large number of people have moved to the region due to the availability of jobs which can be attributed to the robust economy.
The Pearl River Delta has the fastest growing economy in China and the world. The region has a large number of manufacturing industries. The east part of the Pearl River Delta major on manufacturing electronics whereas the west part of the region focuses on household appliance production. The exports from the region are about 40% of the total export in China. The foreign direct investment in the region was 20.8% of the total national investment three years ago and has continued to rise. The growing economy in the area has lead to the rise of an affluent group of residents who have supported the growth of the consumer market.
Rapid industrialization coupled with dense population has in a great way lead to environmental pollution in Pearl River Delta. Smog coming from the manufacturing industries in the area has lead to air pollution, which has led to severe negative effects on animal and human health. Effluence flowing from manufacturing processes often flows into the Pearl River contaminating it with harmful chemicals. Domestic sewerage has also contributed further to the pollution of the river. The World Bank has supported the clean-up of the river by providing finances of $7.1 billion dollars given to the region for that purpose.

The best auction experience in the digital world.
Built from scratch
to excite our users
Our journey began in 2015, when we set out to create the best auction experience in the digital world. In 2018, we launched our platform AURENA to the German-speaking market. In 2019, we became market leader in Austria. 2021 was our most successful year so far, with almost 400,000 lots sold and more than 3 million bids placed.
Good digital products solve user problems, great ones go beyond. Our rate of growth shows that we hit the spot with the market: bringing thrill, fun and excitement to eCommerce and creating a unique world of experience for our users.
The AURENA Experience:
3 core principles
"We build to thrill" is not just a slogan — it is one of three core principles that guides our product development process from the very first day.
Auctions are all about the interaction between bidders and the auctioneer. If you ever get the chance to participate in a live auction with hundreds of bidders in one room, you almost physically feel the tension and momentum of the situation. Adrenalin-fuelled bidders being in the zone, trying to outsmart each other to get hold of their desired goods.
Creating this experience at home or en route on your phone is what we set out to do: real-time interaction between thousands of bidders with millions of updates per minute, paired with a highly interactive UI; ensuring to keep everyone in sync, not forgetting low-end devices. We needed to push the limits of current technology, so we built one of the first single-page apps in eCommerce. We tweaked the framework to tickle out the last milliseconds of performance. We use gamification patterns and nudging effects to shape our bidding experience.
The auction business is all about trust: There is a difference if you buy a pair of pants online or place a multi-thousand euro bid on a sports car. If you think about traditional auction houses you realize that they have one thing in common: a reputation built over decades. That's hard to compete with as the new kid on the block.
To make up for this unfair advantage we needed to create a unique brand experience tailored to our specific user group and deliver products that work reliably. That requires QA excellence, a high maturity level of MVPs and the highest standards for usability, visual design, and content strategy.
What is the most important feature on eCommerce platforms?
Take a second. Most likely "search" is what comes to your mind; if you don't find a product you can't buy it, right? Not so on our auction platform. That's why we rely on user research as the basis for everything we do at AURENA Tech.
Treasure Hunting, as we call it, is what most users are doing on AURENA: browsing through hundreds of pages and thousands of lots, to make sure they don't miss out on any special bargains or rare lots. That's why we have heavily invested in lightning-fast pagination that's unrivaled in the industry, a flat information hierarchy and the best possible scannability.
Testing the user experience
Usability testing is a well-known method to ensure flawless workflows, by validating a hypothesis about the user's interaction with the system. With user experience testing we go one step further: we want to ensure that the experience we design has the desired physiological impact for our user. Specific emotional reactions are what we aim for and measure. Take a look at one example of how we conduct user experience testing in our Experience Lab:

behind the experience
Real-time front-end
Our motivation to build and operate the world's best real-time bidding experience requires a platform that is at once: highly interactive, low-latency, and equitable for all bidders, with the immediacy of a financial stock-trading system. We were the first eCommerce company in Europe to launch an Angular single-page app.
We have built the front-end to maximise browser performance and immediacy, using gaming optimisation techniques to increase page rendering speed. We overcame the challenge of providing real-time synchronisation of the auction and fall-of-the-hammer updates over the web, using a scalable push-notification architecture.
Distributed back-end
At the heart of our backend, is our tailored AuctionEngine, a highly concurrent real-time Java application. It handles 50 bids per second on each auction lot. Our distributed micro-service architecture runs on Typescript and NodeJS. Supporting the backend, we also use Kafka, Avro, GraphQL, Redis, and PostGres.
Our design principles are Domain-Driven (DDD): we use event sourcing, aggregate root, CQRS, and saga patterns. This provides us with a deep insight into what's happening in each of the domains. We replaced AWS SQS with Kafka to support an event-oriented architecture in our micro-service architecture.
DevOps and Cloud containerisation
Our business growth rate has doubled in the last year, with hundreds of newly registered bidders joining us every day. Currently, we manage the horizontal scalability of our platform, to meet the business demand, using AWS Elastic Beanstalk. Our focus is on continuous and strategic improvement, including reduction of build and deployment times and risks, canary releases, split testing, configuration management, and scaling capacity just-in-time to fit traffic demand.
In line with those goals, we are shifting our strategy towards Kubernetes as a strategic enabler. We rely on rolling releases and a comprehensive CI/CD pipeline. We use Terraform, Gitlab CI/CD, AWS, and Ansible for our pipeline automation. We apply the same principles of code adaptability, reusability, and low maintenance cost to our CI/CD codebase, as to our application codebase.
Quality and observability
We are committed to ship reliably working products that exceed user expectations. Right across the development cycle, from user testing to production monitoring, we want to make intelligent design choices based on real feedback. That's why our motto is "don't build it if you can't verify it". We are committed to automated unit, regression, and smoke testing, with Jest and Junit. For QA in Production, we use the Elastic Stack as our observability platform, aligning development, operations, and business metrics.
Going forward, we have strategic plans to build out our QA centre of excellence still further with enhancements to our bug process, quality gates, test case definition, requirement traceability tracking, automated testing, exploratory test organisation, security, and performance testing.

Pirita Észtország fővárosának, Tallinn-nak az egyik kerülete (linnaosa). Tallinn egyik legvonzóbb és legdrágább városrésze, mely a főváros északkeleti részén helyezkedik el. Lakossága 2016. március 1-jén 18 075 fő volt. Tallinn nyolc kerülete közül a 18,7 km² területű Piritának van a legkisebb lélekszáma. A területen elsősorban családi házak és nyaralók találhatók.

A kerület kilenc településrészből (észtül: asum) áll: Iru, Kloostrimetsa, Kose, Laiaküla, Lepiku, Maarjamäe, Merivälja, Mähe és a kerület nevét is adó Pirita településrészből.

A városrész legnevezetesebb és legrégibb épülete a Szent Brigitta-kolostor. Innen ered a korábbi település neve is, a Pirita a Brigitta módosult alakja.

Prita elsősorban a kikapcsolódáshoz, sporthoz és üdüléshez kapcsolódó létesítményekről ismert. Ott található Tallinn tengeri strandja, a piritai strand, valamint a Pirita folyó tengeri torkolatánál kialakított vitorlás- és jachtkikötő. A tengerparton a városközpont felől a kikötőig tengerparti sétány húzódik végig. A Pirita folyó környéke 1957 óta természetvédelmi terület.

Piritában építették fel az 1980-as nyári olimpiai játékokra a vitorlás versenyszámoknak helyet adó Tallinni Olimpiai Központot (Olümpiakeskus), valamint a 314 m magas tallinni tévétornyot. Piritában található a Tallinni botanikus kert (Tallinna Botaanikaaed) és a Tallinni Kerékpáros Versenypálya (Pirita Velotrekk) is.

California law requires smaller apartment buildings to have a resident manager available, and there are some issues with the duties and responsibilities that property owners require of those managers. We're talking about small apartment buildings with between 16 and 40 or even up to 50 units. There isn't always enough work for a full time manager, and we have seen a lot of property owners try to put too much faith in their resident managers.
In some cases, resident managers are expected to handle everything from leasing, to rent collection, to maintenance, to posting legal notices and helping with evictions. Everything that the property owner needs seems to be put into the resident manager's hands. In smaller buildings, these managers are not always trained adequately, and that can cause some problems.
From an owner's perspective, this creates a lot of liability. That resident manager has to be an employee, so you're dealing with the risk that comes with managing employees. California employment law is strict and penalties are severe if you don't follow the law. Potentially you can have a ticking time bomb. We encourage you to consider that.
More importantly, you don't want to employ a resident manager who is doing things that he or she may not be trained or suited to do. Your resident manager might not know the fair housing laws while leasing apartments. If maintenance is being completed, the necessary licenses and insurance coverage might not be in place. Experience is required to properly post legal notices.
The solution is to use a professional off site property management company to take care of all the property management tasks. Then, the resident manager can focus on being the eyes and ears of the property. The resident manager can report to the off site manager what might be going on, and that will mitigate your risk. Also, the property management company will employ the resident manager, not you. That shifts liability off you.
If you'd like to talk more about the strategy and structure of using professional managers as well as resident managers, please contact us at Advantage Property Management Services.

Who is Aaron Dean? Former Texas police officer convicted of manslaughter in fatal shooting of Atatiana Jefferson
A Texas jury found a former police officer guilty of manslaughter on Thursday, after he shot Atatiana Jefferson through the window of her home in 2019.
Former Fort Worth Officer Aaron Dean, who is White, shot the 28-year-old Black woman through a rear window of her Texas home while responding to a call about an open front door.
Dean was also charged with murder by the jury, but he was convicted of manslaughter instead. Before convicting him, the jury deliberated for more than 13 hours over two days.
At the time, Jefferson was playing video games with her 8-year-old nephew, who told authorities his aunt pulled out a gun after hearing suspicious noises behind the house.
Dean and another officer were called to the house after a neighbor called a non-emergency police line to report that Jefferson's front door was open. During the trial, it was revealed that Jefferson and her nephew left the doors open to allow smoke from hamburgers that the boy had burned to escape.
The incident was captured on body camera, and Dean and the other officer did not identify themselves as police officers.
Dean and Officer Carol Darch testified that they thought the house might have been burglarized and quietly moved into the fenced-off backyard looking for signs of forced entry.
Dean then fired a single shot through the window after ordering Jefferson to show her hands.
He claimed he had to shoot because Jefferson pointed the barrel of a gun directly at him. But he later admitted that his actions before and after the shooting were "bad police work."
Darch testified that Dean never mentioned seeing a gun before he pulled the trigger and didn't say anything about a gun when they ran inside to search the house.
Aaron Dean sits by himself during a recess after he was found guilty of manslaughter in the shooting death of Atatiana Jefferson, Thursday, Dec. 15, 2022, at the Tim Curry Criminal Justice Center in Fort Worth, Texas.
Jefferson's nephew, Zion Carr, was in the room when his aunt was shot. He gave conflicting accounts of whether she pointed the gun out the window.
Carr, now 11, testified on the first day of the trial that Jefferson always had the gun pointed down, but in an interview recorded shortly after the shooting and played in court, he said she had pointed the weapon at the window.
Dean, 38, faces up to 20 years in prison, and the sentencing phase of his trial is scheduled to begin on Friday. Following the verdict, he was booked into the Tarrant County Jail.

Jefferson's death shattered the trust that police had been attempting to build with communities of color in Fort Worth, a city of 935,000 located about 30 miles west of Dallas that has long been plagued by complaints of racially unequal policing and excessive force.

A new kidney puts Hannah at the head of the class
Posted on 11 Oct 2012 by Tripp Underwood
More On: kidney disease, kidney transplant, Pediatric Transplant Center (PTC), William Harmon MD
Hannah after her kidney transplant
Ever since she was a little girl, all Hannah Nellis wanted to do was to go to school. Not a typical dream for a 10 year-old, but then again, Hannah's anything but average.
Born with a series of complex medical conditions compromising her kidneys and other organs, Hannah spent her first nine years in and out of doctor's offices, undergoing tests, dialysis and other treatments. It's a grueling schedule, often leaving her too busy and tired to attend school. To keep her functioning at the same level as her peers, Hannah's mother Jennifer home schooled in between doctor visits and treatments.
After years of managing Hannah's condition, doctors near her hometown of Gloversville, NY, decided a kidney transplant would be the young girl's best chance at living a full, healthy life. Given Hannah's age and the complexity of her condition, her local medical team referred her to the Boston Children's Hospital Renal Transplant Program.
Hearing that her daughter's care was going to be transferred to a new group of specialists in Boston was bittersweet for Jennifer; on one hand she was glad her daughter was going to be seen by pediatric specialists, but she was also nervous about being so far from home during such a stressful time.
"Boston is a four hour drive for us," she says. "That's a lot of traveling for anyone, but it's especially far when you're worried about your child."
Hannah and Courtney Loper
But after a few minutes with Courtney Loper, MSN, RN, CPNP, Nurse Practitioner and Renal Transplant Coordinator for the Renal Transplant Program, Jennifer says she felt at home in Boston. "Courtney and the whole team was so great from the minute we got here," she says. "They made a stressful situation so much easier to deal with."
For the next year and a half Jennifer and Hannah made routine trips to Boston from Gloversville so Hannah could be evaluated and get dialysis. At the same time both mother and daughter received transplant education and consultation to make sure everything would go smoothly after transplant. By August 2012 Hannah and Jennifer were ready, and Hannah was actively listed for a Deceased Donor Kidney Transplant with the New England Organ Bank.
Everyone was prepared for a difficult wait—on average, in this region, it takes about 3 months for a child to receive a donor kidney—but barely two weeks after being added to the list, Jennifer received the call that her daughter's new kidney was waiting in Boston.
"I was in shock," Jennifer remembers. "I thought finding an organ would take at least three months. We got the call so fast my head was spinning."
"Mom was running all around the house, when they said I could go to Boston for my operation," adds Hannah with a knowing smile. "I was a little scared, but not as bad as her. I was ready."
Within hours Hannah was being prepared for her transplant. 10 hours later she emerged from the surgical suite with a new, functioning kidney. Hannah was discharged to local housing after about two weeks, and then in early September, less than a month after being placed on the waiting list, Hannah went home to Albany, where her care will be split between Boston Children's and her team at Albany Medical Center
Boston Children's Renal Transplant Program prides itself on securing its patients shorter than average times on the transplant waiting list. (Boston Children's patients often receive their transplant three to six months sooner than the national average for children.) The program's list-to-transplant speed is one of the reasons the Department of Health and Human Services recently honored the program with a Silver Level Award.
"It's important because children fare better when they have a working kidney than when they are on dialysis," says Loper. "Kids often experience real spikes in growth and development after a kidney transplant, so we work hard to make it happen as soon as possible."
Today Hannah and her new kidney are doing great. She's on a special medication protocol, designed by William Harmon, MD, Boston Children's chief of Nephrology, which means she has to take far less anti-rejection meds than most transplant patients. Jennifer says her daughter has twice the energy she had before the operation, and is growing at a fantastic rate. (Renal failure often stunts children's growth; when the child receives a new kidney they often experience a growth spurt.)
"Kids often experience real spikes in growth and development after a kidney transplant, so we work hard to make it happen as soon as possible." –Courtney Loper, Renal Transplant Coordinator
Hannah's quick to point out how much she's grown, she's always been a little self-conscious of being shorter than most kids, but more than anything she's proud to finally be in school. Just last week Hannah joined Mrs. Wilson's third grade class in Gloversville, surrounded by kids her own age, and as she puts it, "doing the same things as everyone else."
When not in school, Jennifer and Hannah still make the drive to Boston twice a week for blood work and check-ups. Given how well she's recovering the follow-up care could be provided at a local hospital, but Jennifer says the connection she and her daughter have with the team at Boston Children's Renal Transplant Program is too important to give up just yet.
"The drive can be a little tiresome, especially now that Hannah's going to be a full-time student, but it's so worth it." Jennifer says. "She received her kidney here, the team knows her and love her and we want that relationship to continue."
Do you have a child like Hannah and want to know if Boston Children's is right for your family as well? Please contact our Kidney Transplant Program or Request an Appointment.

Can there be a body of IP data that is more analyzed than patent filings and registations? The avalability of this data, and the large number of information fields that can be examined, seem to have made patents an irresistible source of attraction for quantitative analysis. More challenging, however, is the drawing of meaningful conclusions from this wealth of information.
1. Japan's dominance of Asian technology has been eroded by its neighbours. Consider, for example, the provenance of most of the major components of the Apple IPad (South Korea and Taiwan), but nearly none from Japan.
2. Between 2006-2009, patent filings in Japan have notably declined while those in China have soared. Based on the filing trends of these past years, filings in China may surpass those in Japan in 2010, "putting China in striking distance of America."
3. In 2008-2009, the Japanese filed 11% fewer PCT applications, while the Chinese filed 18% more. That said, the Japanese have a much better success rate in granted patents and enjoy a higher patent citation rate.
4. While Japanese companies are cutting back on R&D, Chinese companies are accelerating their R&D activities. Indeed, China may soon surpass Japan in domestic-spending R&D, "on purchasing-power terms."
5. China is not alone on this. Moving to South Korea, Samsung plans to double its research spending this year. Not by accident, perhaps, Samsung enjoyed profits last year that were greater than the largest nine Japanese electronic firms combined.
6. This push by China in the patent arena is attributed in large part to governmental policy. For example, China wants to wean itself off reliance on foreign patents (Chinese companies pay more than $10 billion to foreign in companies in licensing fees annually). Increasing Chinese patents will (i) avoid some of the need to pay royalties to foreigners: (ii) force foreign companies to take a license of Chinese technology and (iii) improve the position of Chinese companies in negotiating licences.
7. Japan is woefully behind other countries in patents that list a foreign co-inventor (4% for Japanese applications, compared with 40% for American filings).
8. Japan still has the most patents in force (1.9 million, compared to 1.4 million for America and 134,000 for China).
So what are we to make of the article?
First, the article does not really address the connection between patents and innovation. Is it really the case that increased patent filings in China and by Chinese points to increased innovation? Maybe yes, maybe no--the article does not really explain. In this regard, it is curious for The Economist to focus so much on the point given that the cover story of the same issue, entitled, "How India's Growth Will Outpace China's," seems to suggest that, over the long run, India will be a better bet than China with respect to innovation. The place of India in connection with Asian innovation, however, is not addressed in the article.
Second, why the scant attention to South Korea in the article? Given the so-called "lost decade" in Japan, data about patent doom and gloom is not very surprising. The more interesting comparison would be between China and South Korea. Alas, on this, there is nary a word.
Third, the observation that licensing fees are seemingly a major reason for the Chinese government push into patents is quite amazing, if true. Patents are filed for a variety of reasons, of which patent royalties (and the ability to extract cross-licences) is only one of them. If patent licensing has been identified as a major driver of patent activity in China, this seems to me to be a big deal. Sadly, the point is not pursued.
What stands out in the article is yet another effort to gather diverse bits and pieces of patent filing and registration information without either bringing them together into a coherent narrative or analyzing the points in any depth. That is too bad.
As you and I know well, patent filings mean nothing unless they are coupled with an analysis of the attendant business strategy. Moreover, patent filings have little to do with innovation--innovation relates to things that get to the marketplace and make money, and need not be patented. If only 3% of patents make money (and it is probably about this number), then it can be said that patent filing information is only 3% directional in relation to innovation.
So, looking at patent filing data in the abstract is useless information. Unfortunately, few others recognize this, and there will be much groaning and gnashing of teeth over this "deep analysis" from the respected press outlet of the Economist. And, people will respond as they always do--by making erroneous conclusions about the state of innovation in Asia and elsewhere.
An excellent analysis and healthy exercise of critical thinking. Let's-jump-to-conclusions-that-may-attract-more-readers (or appease current ones) seems to be the editorial line of some respected sacred cows of economic journalism.
The lack of causal relationship between more patenting and more innovation is plainly bad argumentation (the old and still memorable "post hoc ergo propter hoc").
Serious research on IPR and innovation is badly needed. More than 50 years after Machlup's study we continue to "muddle through".
The real issue may be that patent data is the best we can do... the data is relatively uniform across jusridictions, widely translate, easy to search, free, etc.
What other sources of data and information do you propose we use to measure innovation?


PHP as an Apache Module?
When PHP runs as an Apache module, PHP files work under the Apache user/group known as "nobody". For example, when a PHP file needs to write to another file or create/remove a file, it does so under the name "nobody". In order to allow "nobody" to do this, you need to set specific permissions on the file/directory, such as 777 – which translates to read/write/execute by user/group/world. This is insecure because you have not only allowed the web server (Apache) to read/write to the file, you have also allowed everyone else on the server to read/write to the file as well!
Due to the above conditions, when a PHP file creates or uploads a new file to your account, the new file will be owned by the user "nobody". If you FTP into your account, all files owned by "nobody" will not be available for you to move, rename or delete. In this case, the only way to remove the "nobody" owned files would be through a file on the server or to contact support and ask for the file ownership to be changed back to your username.

If you are unhappy with the doctor the insurance company selected for you, under the current law as of the date this article was written, you may request a one-time change of care. The insurance company must select and authorize another doctor (not associated with the current doctor) within 5 days of your request or you will be allowed to select your own doctor who will then become the new authorized treating physician. There are a number of complicated issues regarding this rule, which have resulted in a good deal of litigation. I would suggest consulting with an attorney who specializes in workers' compensation to better understand this area rather than trying to ask for a change of physician yourself. After all, the doctor who treats you will be the one whose opinions will likely determine all of the important issues in your case such as the course of treatment, referrals to other specialists, work status and restrictions where appropriate, impairment ratings, and the date of Maximum Medical Improvement (which has an enormous impact upon your rights to receive both money and free medical benefits). Attorneys who specialize in Workers' compensation know the reputations of most of the local physicians and can greatly assist an injured worker who needs to change doctors.
Money benefits are often referred to as Indemnity Benefits in Workers' Compensation. These benefits are based upon how much an injured worker made during the 13 weeks (or 91 days) before the accident. All of your wages, bonuses, and commissions paid/earned during that 13 weeks are added together and then the whole sum is divided by 13 pay to get the average weekly wage (called AWW). If you worked less than 3/4 of your normal hours during the 13 weeks immediately before your accident, the wages of a similar employee who worked during that same period will be used to calculate the AWW.
The average weekly wage figure will provide the basis for calculating all other money benefits due in your case and therefore a lot of attention has been focused upon this subject. Conflicts frequently arise between the injured worker and the insurance company over the correct number to use for the average weekly wage, especially when one of the following has occurred: the injured worker has not worked for the entire 13 week period before his or her accident; the injured worker had a second job during the 13 week period before his or her accident and those wages should be added into the calculation as well; the employer was paying the injured worker in cash or under-the-table and thus there are no records to substantiate the actual amount paid; benefits such as group health insurance or a place to live, which were being provided by the employer during the 13 weeks before the accident, have been discontinued and therefore the cost/value should be added into the AWW calculation. These issues have been the source of a great deal of litigation, which have resulted in additional rules and legislation to resolve them. A complete description of the manner and method of resolving each of those issues is too complex a subject to get into in this overview of Florida Workers' compensation Law.
There is no money or compensation payable for pain or suffering in Workers' Compensation. The five (5) types of money benefits available in Florida's Workers' compensation Law are; Temporary Total, Temporary Partial, Permanent Total, Impairment Benefits, and Death Benefits. The following is a brief description of each.
1) Temporary Total Disability, also known as TTD, is paid to the injured worker at the rate of two-thirds (66.67%) of the worker's AWW when the doctor completely restricts the worker from returning to work while treatment to improve the condition is ongoing. Usually, the doctor will give the injured worker a prescription or a form DWC-25 stating the injured worker is under treatment, has not reached Maximum Medical Improvement and is on a No Work Status. These benefits must be paid every 2 weeks while the injured worker remains on No Work Status.

The Key To Fantasy Football Salary Cap Challenge Games
Sometimes it seems as if the most fascinating elements of professional football is the behind the scenes dealings as well as the mechanical creation of the perfect team. This is the idea behind fantasy football, a fantasy sports game in which players take on the role of team owners and are arranged into a fictional league. Players deal with data to determine the outcomes of their fantasy league championship trực tiếp bóng đá, that is, the names of real-life NFL players. Each team starts the season by drafting or acquiring NFL players by auction and then scores points based on players' statistical performance on the field. (Note that some fantasy leagues use the NCAA division as well) How are victories determined between players? It depends on the creators of the league, as winners could be determined by the most points garnered by the end of the season or in head-to-head tournament NFL style.
When did the phenomenon of fantasy football start? This sport within a sport began in 1962 as an idea passed on by Bill Winkenbach, a limited partner in the Oakland Raiders, as well as Bill Tunnell, the Raiders' public relations man. Also involved in the creative process were Scotty Stirling of the Oakland Tribune and George Ross, the Tribune's sports editor. The idea came from a three-week road trip that saw the Raiders visit the East Coast. The men fleshed out the idea on the road and then penned the basics of the first fantasy football league, the GOPPPL, otherwise known as the Greater Oakland Professional Pigskin Prognosticators League.
Over the years, fantasy football leagues continued either in groups or even through BBS (Bulletin Board Systems) communication. With the rise of cheaper PCs and the Internet in the late 90s fantasy football experienced a slight resurgence in popularity. The sport continues to be popular among football purists and experts who know football facts like no one else's business. Fantasy football players still are passionate today about their favorite hobby and are always looking for ways to win. This is why many magazines, websites and books offer tips and tools on how to get ahead in the fantasy sport.
Magazines, websites, books, and software are available that provide fantasy players with the information they need to make better decisions. Additionally, the popularity of this sport has increased thanks to the availability of live football games via satellite TV, satellite radio, cable, and Internet websites. Interestingly, whereas the Internet has taken away the business of many retail industries, as far as football is concerned, fantasy football only increases football program ratings, attendance and website traffic. By nature, fantasy sports players must watch more live game telecasts, buy more tickets and spend more money at stadiums than just an average football fan that only watches his team and has a Super Bowl party. In general, fantasy football has had a very positive effect in educating football fans as to the rules of the sport and abilities of players. If you are interested in playing then consider the three biggest virtual leagues: CBS, ESPN, and Yahoo.

Home Careers Vehicle Connectivity Testing with Chris Polmear
Vehicle Connectivity Testing
An Interview with Chris Polmear, Principal Engineer
Millbrook is part of the CAM Testbed UK – a world-leading network of innovators for the development of connected and autonomous vehicles. We are partnering with UK Atomic Energy Authority's RACE to provide a controlled urban testbed for CAVs. We recently hosted Zenzic at our 700 acre proving ground in Bedfordshire, to demonstrate our capabilities in connectivity testing.
The project, headed by Chris Polmear, involved a demo test to show the benefits of vehicle connectivity testing. We spoke to Chris to find out more about the process, and what we achieved.
"All of this technology is available now at Millbrook, meaning that connected and autonomous vehicle technologies can be trialed and tested on site." Chris Polmear, Principal Engineer - Connected and Autonomous
What did the demo test involve?
Two vehicles were driven around various tracks; including the High Speed Circuit, the Hill Route and the Handling Circuit. Throughout the demonstration, the vehicles were connected to Millbrook's high speed, low latency network, enabling live test data to be streamed between them (V2V). For this demo, the information being transferred included typical test data such as engine speed, accelerator pedal, longitudinal and lateral G and GPS position.
Watch video of demo test
What equipment was used to achieve a V2V connection?
The test set up involved the installation of data loggers in the test vehicles. This meant that live data could be viewed on a tablet from the second vehicle. Not only was information transferred across to another vehicle, but a live video and audio link was installed, so that the test could be discussed and the driver could be instructed throughout.
How did our infrastructure at Millbrook Proving Ground support this test?
Millbrook's network is currently 4G LTE but it is able to emulate the low latency and high capacity of 5G, with the ability to progress to 5G later this year. In the past, we have streamed 4 4K cameras simultaneously from one moving vehicle to another, demonstrating our high bandwidth, consistent network connection.
What opportunities does this present for Millbrook?
The success of this demonstration shows that confidential test data can be streamed instantaneously using Millbrook's secure, private 5G network. This means that all parties can view live results from a remote location anywhere in the world, giving our customers ultimate control and visibility of the test process. In addition to this, road load data acquisition and recording, processing and reporting can be automated. Real-time vehicle data acquisition and reporting enables vehicle tests will be much more efficient. The time taken to review data and produce customer reports will be minimised, resulting in new vehicles being out on the road much more quickly.
Connectivity is shaping the future of the automotive industry. There are already a number of connected vehicles out on the road; but it is evolving to be about more than just the vehicles themselves. All of this technology is available now at Millbrook, meaning that connected and autonomous vehicle technologies can be trialed and tested on site. The success of this demonstration means that the future of testing will be much more efficient. Live data streaming enables the tests to be a lot quicker. Instant, real-time results will mean decreased waiting times and allow test schedules to run more smoothly.

Creatinine is excreted at fairly constant rates in the absence of renal disease and commonly used as benchmark in urinary biomarker analysis. Serum creatinine levels are useful indicators of renal function and have been implicated in diabetes, cardiovascular and circulatory diseases. This stable-labeled internal standard is suitable for quantification of creatinine levels by LC/MS or GC/MS for applications in clinical diagnostic, urine drug testing or forensic analysis.
