It may not be as perfectly polished as its neighbouring cousin, the capital Edinburgh, but Glasgow has a fire in its belly and an upbeat quality that ensures all those taking flights to Glasgow will have a whale of a time whatever they find to do. If you fancy getting down with the Scots in the near future, seek out some cheap flights to Glasgow with BudgetAir and get that party started!
This gritty Scottish town has been transformed into a lively, arty mix with a happening social scene and great attractions. This is partly due to the city being Capital of Culture and also its involvement in the 2012 Olympics and 2014 Commonwealth Games. So grab those flights to Glasgow as soon as you can to be part of the progress.
One of the most visited museums in the UK outside London is the Kelvingrove Art Gallery & Museum, stuffed full of Scottish and European art treasures, Viking paraphernalia and many natural history exhibits. If you only visit one museum after your flights to Glasgow make sure this is the one.
Getting a feel for the place is easy if you stroll along the Clyde River as it gives both sides of the Glasgow story - the shiny new redevelopment of the docks and the faded glory of a former era. The main project here is the Glasgow Science Centre, great for children as it brings science alive through a variety of interactive displays.
For grandness and opulence, head for George Square, the heart of the city and surrounded by elegant 18th century buildings and statues. The People's Palace charts Glasgow's history from 1750 to the present day, while the Winter Gardens next door offers a chance for some peace and calmness.
There are daily flights to Glasgow from most UK airports so availability is not a problem. However prices can vary enormously from airline to airline. The solution is simple. For cheap flights to Glasgow use the services of BudgetAir who can source great deals on Glasgow flights with a few clicks of the mouse. Give it a go today and be amazed at how much money you can save.
Booking your cheap flights to Glasgow in Scotland with BudgetAir.co.uk ensures a safe, reliable and easy way to plan your trip. With our easy to use website, safe booking system and a large selection of hotels to choose from, you won't have to worry about a thing when you choose to book your holiday with Budgetair.co.uk.


Gene Simmons Admits Big Mistake: "I Was Completely Wrong About Cannabis"
During an appearance on Trunk Nation, ex-Judas Priest singer Tim "Ripper" Owens – who was a member of the fold between 1996 and 2003, performing on 1997's "Jugulator" and 2001's "Demolition" – discussed the latest drama between the band and its classic guitarist KK Downing.
"I was around. I know what Ken's [Downing] talking about. So it's not like he's fabricating stuff.
"People keep saying that's all he talks about [in interviews promoting the book]. No, he's not. People are interviewing him and asking him about the book. He's answering the questions that people are asking. It is what it is.
"I talked to Ken, and he had nothing but great things to say about [his replacement] Richie [Faulkner] and even the band.

Toyota Avensis Models 2017 – Toyota Future Modern Design Sedan – At the point when the touches base at the market at some time in 2017 it will be a facelift of the current model, in addition to a couple elements that will enhance the substantial family auto that the Toyota Avensis has been as far back as its presentation in 1997 offering without a moment's delay unwavering quality and fuel efficiency with a dash of style.
In spite of the fact that the data about the new Toyota Avensis 2017 is still rare and this survey is given mystery, even now the model looks set to check all the containers with regards to shoppers' requests.
As far the outside is concerned, we can hope to see the adjustments in the length and width of the wheelbase with a more aggressive front face elevate. The lower grille will probably develop in size supplementing a bigger front guard while the limited upper grille will fit cozily between the new LED head lights.The 2017 Toyota Avensis will sit on another arrangement of 16-, 17-and 18-inch wheels, which will give it a significantly more articulated more extensive position. Also, to the backside, the model will don an insurance glass in the back window and a somewhat adjusted hood and remolded tail lights.
Inside, the Avensis will include another arrangement of calfskin Alcantara seats, which guarantee to offer more space for legs. The dashboard will be down to earth with new representation, and a touch cushion put very conveniently. Likewise, the encompassing sound framework and top of the line route components will round off the interior. Furthermore, the Toyota's trademark airbags at the front, back, and the sides are ensured to proceed with the notoriety of one the most secure models in the family auto-classification.
The 2017 Toyota Avensis Sedan will be equipped with an extensive variety of motor trims. The base model will probably include the standard and reliable 1.6-liter Valvematic gas engine which produces 132 drive and 118 pound-ft of torque combined with a six-speed manual transmission.
Likewise, there will be a 1.8-liter engine with Valvematic unit creating 147 strength and 133 lb-ft of torque. By a wide margin, the most excellent power prepare in this auto will be the 2.0-liter Valvematic which creates 153 drive and 133 pound-ft of torque accompanying a Multidrive S CVT transmission.Plus, there will likewise be accessible a diesel unit which is relied upon to be somewhere close to a 2.0-liter and a 2.2-liter D-4D diesel motor. This engine will produce 150 strength and 250 pounds-ft of torque.
We expect the Toyota Avensis Models 2017 Design will begin appearing in late 2016. The evaluating will probably be set at around $30,000 for the Toyota Avensis 2017 Price base trim and will ascend contingent upon the alternatives.

An exhibit of unusual photographs are displayed in the Oregon Coast Aquarium's Passages of the Deep exhibit. "Sea Unseen" is a collection of photographs taken by fisheries biologist Carla Stehr, whose extraordinary images of Pacific marine life are viewed and photographed through a Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM). Peering into this microscope reveals a realm where unlikely shapes and textures emerge; revealing a fantastic world beyond what is visible to the human eye.
The "Sea Unseen" exhibit features highly-magnified images of fish scales and sensory cells, diatoms, dinoflagellates, marine worms and octopus suckers, among other intricate structures and sea creatures that cannot be seen by the naked eye. Occasionally, by sheer luck, the timing is just right to show a unique moment in the life of a marine organism.
The SEM is a state of the art technology that uses electrons to provide information about the surface structure of a sample, and can magnify images up to 300,000 times. The images have a three-dimensional appearance that is artistic and informative.
"I think people are captivated by the unexpected beauty of organisms when they are seen with a microscope," said Stehr. "It opens up a new level of understanding that even the smallest organisms (such as single celled diatoms) are amazingly complex." Stehr grew up in Olympia where she spent many hours on Budd Inlet observing and identifying creatures that lived on the beach. In 1976, she began working at the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's (NOAA) newly established electron microscopy lab.
Stehr and other scientists have operated the SEM for over 30 years, and her photographs have helped the Northwest Fisheries Science Center (NWFSC) advance scientific knowledge of fish development, harmful algal blooms, and the effects of contaminants on marine organisms. She completed a MS degree in 1981 at the UW School of Fisheries, using electron microscopy to study fish eggs. SEM images of salmon olfactory cells have helped scientists understand of how pollutants such as copper and other metals can disrupt salmon homing behavior and their ability to smell their way home.


Brilliant work. A question: now that SCS has released 1.34 and ProMods will be releasing 2.40, do you still expect to make Middle-East add-on available soon after PM2.40 releases?
Platypus, don't burn yourself up!
Thumbs up to the work.
No problem I only map now when I have time and I'm inspirated. So, it's will be ready when it's ready. Thanks to all for your support and your comments on this project.
Yes, Middle-East will now wait PM 2.40. A big part of planned map is ready and I'll use the remaining time to complete Lebanon. Maybe Tripoli could be finished, but not yet sure.
Also, someone should make a Middle Eastern traffic pack (with old French cars, mopeds and coloured trucks).
Most likely Jazzycat would make the traffic pack, like he done with Russian traffic pack when RusMap was first released.
Anyway, keep up the good work! The Mediterranean climate is really shown on this addon.
Maybe in the future we could get more into Saudi Arabia, like to Medina and Jeddah/Mecca would be kind of cool to have. Riyadh and UAE are not too practical for the future though. Syria could get expanded in the southwest region, like Damascus, and Latakia. A bit of Libya could get included near Egypt too. But overall, you've done a great job with the Middle East.

«Heartbreaker» (en español: «Rompecorazones») es una canción escrita y grabada por la cantante estadounidense Mariah Carey y el rapero Jay Z en el sexto álbum de Carey Rainbow (1999). La canción fue producida por Dj Clue y Jay Z, basándose en el sample (muestra) de la canción de Stacy Lattisaw  "Attack of the Name Game" escrita por Jeff Cohen, Narada Michael Walden, Shirley Elliston y Lincoln Chase (ésta a la vez había sido hecha a base del sample de "The Name Game" que había sido escrita por Elliston y Chase). La protagonista de la canción se lamenta de un hombre que ha roto su corazón. Fue el primer sencillo de Rainbow lanzado en agosto de 1999, llegando al top 10 en varios países, entre ellos Estados Unidos donde alcanzó el número uno.

Composición y lanzamiento
Originalmente Carey había escrito la canción para la banda sonora de su película en desarrollo All That Glitters (más tarde titulada Glitter y lanzada a fines del 2001). Cómo el tema de la película iba a ser un musical cómo de los 80s, Carey se puso a trabajar con Dj Clue para hacer una canción tipo retro. Cuando la producción de la película se atrasó, Carey decidió incorporar la canción en su nuevo álbum de estudio. Entonces se puso en contacto con Jay Z para que este rapeara algunas partes de la canción. Jay Z sugirió que la canción se lance lo antes posible, porque sin duda se convertiría en uno de los grandes éxitos del verano.

"Heartbreaker" fue una de las primeras canciones que un se lanzó en Internet antes que en la radio, lo que abrió un nuevo camino para el resto de los artistas. La canción podía ser escuchada exclusivamente en el sitio WindowsMedia.com durante doce horas del 16 de agosto de 1999. Después de la pista se podía descargar desde el sitio de Microsoft hasta el 20 de agosto del mismo año. Se reportaron más de 375.000 descargas.

Recepción
"Heartbreaker" alcanzó el número uno en el Billboard Hot 100, convirtiendo a Carey en la única artista en tener al menos un número uno en cada año de la década de los noventa y fue el 14° número 1 y primer número 1 de "Jay-Z". El sencillo se mantuvo en la cima durante dos semanas a partir del 3 de octubre de 1999 hasta el 16 de octubre del mismo año, reemplazando a "Unpretty" de TLC y siendo reemplazado por "Smooth" de Santana con Rob Thomas. En la segunda semana de estadía deL sencillo en la cima, Carey rompió otro récord, el de la estadía más larga en el número uno en el Hot 100 (contando todos sus sencillos) un total de 70 semanas superando a The Beatles por una semana.

El éxito se debe a la combinación de su gran popularidad en la radio y las altas ventas del sencillo en CD, recordemos que Carey no alcanzaba el top 10 en la lista de las canciones más radiadas (Hot 100 Airplay) desde "Always Be My Baby" en 1996. El sencillo también encabezó la lista de sencillo más vendidos (Hot 100 Singles Sales) con 271 000 unidades vendidas en tan sólo una semana, la que era su mejor semana en cuanto a ventas hasta "Touch My Body" en el 2008 que vendió 286.000 unidades en su primera semana de lanzamiento.
"Heartbreaker" fue certificado de oro por la RIAA, se mantuvo en el Hot 100 durante 20 semanas y calificó cómo trigésimo cuarto en la lista Hot 100 de fin de año de 1999.

El sencillo era igual de exitoso fuera de Estados Unidos, encabezando las listas en Canadá, Nueva Zelanda, España y Filipinas, además alcanzó el top 10 en la mayoría de los mercados  , entre ellos Australia y Alemania, donde Carey no tiene más de cuatro sencillos top 10. En el Reino Unido llegó al número cinco, convirtiéndose en su último sencillo top 10 en este país hasta "Through the Rain" en el 2003.

En conclusión, el sencillo fue un gran éxito en todo el mundo; siendo muy popular en las radios; además de que el vídeo también era muy popular en los canales de música.

Vídeo musical
El vídeo clip del sencillo fue dirigido por Brett Ratner. Este vídeo es el más caro de toda la carrera de Carey, incluso en un especial de Mtv en el 2000 se mencionó que es el quinto vídeo musical más caro de todos los tiempos. Al parecer costó 2,5 millones de dólares aproximadamente.

En el vídeo se puede ver a Carey con un grupo de amigas que la están incitando para que ella enfrente a su novio infiel (interpretado por Jerry O'Connell) que está en el cine con la rival de Carey llamada Bianca.

Cuando el vídeo se lanzó, Jay Z había grabado una canción para la banda sonora de la película  Blue Streak y su sello Epic Records había estipulado que no podía aparecer en cualquier vídeo clip. Es por esto que en la parte de la canción Jay Z rapea se sustituyó por una secuencia de dibujos animados donde aparecen Carey, sus amigas y Jay Z. Cuando el contrato expiró se filmó otro vídeo en que si aparece Jay Z en que rindió homenaje a la película Scarface (1983). Otras escenas del vídeo muestran a Mariah y a Bianca peleando en el baño.

Remixes
Uno de los remixes más conocidos es el llamado simplemente "Heartbreaker (Remix)" que se puede encontrar en todas las versiones del álbum Rainbow. Aunque la estructura básica de la canción se mantiene igual, Carey re-grabó su voz y utilizó un nuevo sample de la canción "Ain't No Fun (It The Homies Can't Have None)" de Snoop Dogg y esta a la vez se hizo basada en la canción "Think (About It)" de Lyn Collins.  El remix fue producido por Carey, Duro, y DJ Clue y algunas partes de la canción son rapeadas por Da Bratt y Missy Elliott. También existe un vídeo para esta versión de la canción dirigido por Diane Martel y filmado totalmente en blanco y negro, en el que se puede ver Carey con un bikini y va a lavar el auto de Snoop Dogg. Da Bratt, Missy Elliott, Bianca (rival de Carey),  Nate Dogg y DJ Clue también aparecen en el vídeo.

Se hicieron varios remixes más con muestras de otras canciones de los 70s.

Cameron Diaz 'believes in open-relationships'
Hollywood A-lister Cameron Diaz has suggested having more than one partner at a time might be the way to go.
The 41-year-old, who has dated a string of high profile celebrities over the years, was speaking with the Daily Mirror while promoting her new movie The Other Woman.
She said women usually expect men to understand everything about them and give them everything they require, which could be where they are going wrong.
When asked if women should date more than one person, she replied: "Why not? Why would that be so bad?"
Cameron compared it to the relationships she has with her female friends, who all offer something different, while none expect to know and do everything with her.
She said: "There are different commonalities in each one of them and when I want to do those certain things, I can go to that girlfriend and we do those things together."
Men who have previously been linked to the Bad Teacher star include Justin Timberlake, Alex Rodriguez, Matt Dillon and Jared Leto.
Meanwhile, Cameron recently spoke to Esquire magazine and talked about how she never felt the need to get married, but refused to rule out having children at some point.
She said: "It [marriage] just wasn't the thing I was drawn to. I certainly didn't want it in my 20s. Or my 30s.
"I don't need to have the children in my life be a part of my literal flesh. And anyway, there's still a possibility of that, I ain't that old."
In her new movie, Cameron plays a character who finds out her boyfriend is actually married, after which the two women discover there's also a third female in the picture.
She has been promoting the film at a variety of events across the US and Europe, where it will be released before the end of April.
It also stars Leslie Mann and model-turned-actress Kate Upton.

At almost 6 a.m. it's still dark in the Safeway parking lot when I drive past the store's lit windows. Some market decorators have launched red and pink valentine balloons and streamers; though it's gaudy, it's beautiful. A vivid reminder of the upcoming Valentine's Day for which I have no plans.
Emails for restaurants still taking reservations remain unopened. I am ambivalent about asking to celebrate with my once-lover or trying to spend time with the dear friend who is busy making valentine sugar cookies for her bakery business and who hasn't a lot of time because she now works two jobs.
Because at the moment we are passing a store full of red hearts and pink streamers and I am cradling Foxibeau the dog in the crook of my arm, I think of gifting him a pink squeaky heart-shaped toy. A present to the dog may be this year's show of love to another.
This is not to say love isn't in my heart. It is and not just because store decorations have given me the seasonal go-ahead. The love I call love feels quiet and tentative as if exuberant, joyous declarations might summon a loud "Shut up!" And I really don't want to hear anyone, especially myself, say something dismissive like: "You love a dog?" As if this means I'm lacking. Or "You love yourself? Shouldn't you be beyond self-centered by now?" Perhaps alluding to the Bodhisattva vow to save all beings.
If loving myself means I invest energy and money to regulate my nervous system and to plow through parts and pieces of this self I find problematic, then yes, that could be called self-centered. Yet calling it so would be a mistake. Smoothing out and soothing frees up energy to direct toward being present and perhaps even temporarily "saving" a few beings whose lives intersect mine.
Love of the self feels more like appreciating an ally than treating myself like an object in search of approval. This love feels like a best friend, like a pink angora sweater worn with a tuck-in peter pan collar identical to the one my best friend is wearing.
It feels like the plump tufted brown pillow my therapist placed beneath my feet before she guided my imagining to experience being swooped up out of the reach of a barbed-wire swirl of self-criticism by a large monkey lest I be overwhelmed. This protective mother monkey swings my six-year-old self high among tree branches. Once out of harm's reach, the large monkey cuddles and soothes until my curiosity sends me scampering to the ground amid a swarm of playful baby monkeys who groom and play with each other and with me. I let their brown softness and the feel of the pillow remind me of Foxibeau, who runs into my mind to join in as I rest in the comfort of safety from my critical, suffering self.
I feel love as I listen to a story a friend tells about her habitual morning walk around Stowe Lake before sunrise. She recounts recognizing a homeless man bedded down at the boathouse and calling to him: Eddie, are you okay and warm enough? He assures her: Doin' just fine, thanks. Then he says no to the money she offers him to buy a warm jacket. Resuming her walk, she and the other morning joggers hear Eddie's voice yell out her name. I love you, Valerie, he yells. If you ever aren't married, I'll marry you!! She yells back her no thanks she's going solo, as other joggers, older Asians, not understanding his outcries rush to her to be reassured she is safe.
This feeling I call love is gently laced with humor; it is love that giggles at the raspy sound of a growing growl in a little dog's throat. It's hard not to smile. Hard not to laugh although shushing is surely required.
It is a gift to myself of comfort and forgiving. In my mind-heart I hold the image of a loving presence fierce to protect the child in me from the pain still aching to be healed. And this love's authority commands in her kindest voice that "Shut up" be vanished from the heart's vocabulary. With love and gratitude, I wish those who read here: a happy Valentine's Day.

First Reading (Opt. C): Isaiah 40:1-5, 9-11
Announcement: Freedom and Return!
1 "Comfort, comfort my people," says your God. 2 "Speak comfortably to Jerusalem; and call out to her that her warfare is accomplished, that her iniquity is pardoned, that she has received of YHWH's hand double for all her sins."
3 The voice of one who calls out,
"Prepare the way of YHWH in the wilderness! Make a level highway in the desert for our God. 4 Every valley shall be exalted, and every mountain and hill shall be made low. The uneven shall be made level and the rough places a plain.
5 The glory of YHWH shall be revealed, and all flesh shall see it together; for the mouth of YHWH has spoken it."
40:9 You who tell good news to Zion, go up on a high mountain. You who tell good news to Jerusalem, lift up your voice with strength. Lift it up. Don't be afraid. Say to the cities of Judah, "Behold, your God!" 10 Behold, the Lord YHWH will come as a mighty one, and his arm will rule for him. Behold, his reward is with him, and his recompense before him.
11 He will feed his flock like a shepherd. He will gather the lambs in his arm, and carry them in his bosom. He will gently lead those who have their young.
Imagine a general amnesty for all prisoners in the United States. While that thought might scare us, there would be joy in many quarters. Fathers would see their families. Sons would see their parents. Heroes would return to their communities. Many lost in the system would see hope in freedom. The impact of such an amnesty was felt by the Jews when they heard the words of Second Isaiah.
The beginning of Second Isaiah presented a scene of divine command and the announcement of a town crier. God pronounced a nation-wide forgiveness and the crier announced the return of the exiles. [40:1-5] The joy of such an announcement must have accompanied the fall of Babylon to Cyrus and the Persian army in 539 B.C. A year later, the Persian ruler enacted an edict of return for the Jews in the Diaspora. They were to rebuild Jerusalem and restore the Temple.
The changing events justified the loyalty of the exiles to their God. Now YHWH could display his power, even through a foreign king. The Jewish nation could once again rally around their God. They could once again show a religious and patriotic pride. YHWH saved them! [40:9-11]
Freedom from bondage implicitly means return. Pardon from sin means return to God. Metanoia, repentance, means turn away from self-centered pursuits. And turning towards the Almighty.
These are the themes of Baptism
How do you plan to turn away from the self and turn towards God?

We are an energy utility. It's an industry where the only constant is change: decentralisation and digitisation are driving waves of disruption of our traditional business models, and our customers are sourcing and consuming energy in new ways.
How can we evolve — and keep evolving — so that we can prosper by providing our customers with new, increasingly valuable, personalised and green products and services?
AGL is in its third and final year of investing more than $400 million in 'digital first' projects.
During this transformation, we began to embed 'design thinking' practices, customer-centricity and 'agile' ways of working. Now, we're building on those platforms with a combination of techniques and technologies that will enable us to service our customers' needs.
We use design-thinking to identify high-value problems, then apply artificial intelligence (AI) or traditional analytics when they make sense. And we don't suffer from a lack of data – with the increasing digitisation of our customer experience and penetration of smart meters, rooftop solar, batteries and Internet of Things (IoT) devices.
A well-architected data platform on the 'cloud' provides us with an ability to store and access that data in a way that enables the speed and elasticity we need to generate continuous insights and empower our customers in an increasingly complex and fast-changing energy environment.
We have a framework called 'ARC', which allows us to harvest and use large data sets like those collected by smart meters.
And our existing Operational Technology Platform measures thousands of data points every second at AGL power plants and uses complex statistical models to detect potential issues. We'll be extending this platform by training artificial intelligence to detect complex failure modes and support predictive maintenance.
We're also using machine learning and predictive analytics technologies to revolutionise the way we transform and trade energy. We'll be depending on AI to optimise the system as it becomes more decentralised, more varied, and decisions are made in increasingly near real time.
Bringing together our unwavering commitment to customer-centricity (identifying the right problems and the right solutions through 'design thinking') with technology (AI supported by 'big data' and 'cloud'), we are transforming AGL into an energy technology company of the future.

It was a warm and beautiful sunny day in July when Karman and Clint said their "I Do's" to each other. Thier special day was rich with family history and details as we traveled to a couple of the gorgeous family farms for photos. Some of the engagement photos were also photographed at one of the Rhorer farms and it made for a magical first look location.
The ceremony was held at Strasburg Mennonite Church in Strasburg and the reception was held a family farm just down the road. The reception tent was dressed with chandeliers and the colors and details were perfect!
The evening was fun-filled as guests played yard games and danced till sunset.
Karman and Clint you were both a delight to work with as you both have such joy and happiness when they are in each others presence. Your love is contagious. Congratulations to you both!!
Enjoy - The Rhorer wedding.


How to change controller from SCUL to SCUN without loosing configuration?
Not all commands have the same syntax from version to another, if we upgrade using database, the database upgrade tool replaces old commands with the new ones.
but in our case, we used configuration to upgrade, so commands used in configuring new version will have old synatx.
Some of these commands will have no meaning at the new version, to know which commands hadn't taken effect, we need to use that command, then check at version release what are the new equivilant commands to these ones and run them to have similar configuration like the old one.


"Rule #62" which states, "Don't Take Yourself Too Damn Seriously," is something the Canadian-born and Austin-dwelling honky tonk throwback singer Whitney Rose steadfastly adheres to, and it's also the theme behind her upcoming new album of the same name.
Once again Marty Stuart and the Fabulous Superlatives prove they are at the core of keeping the traditions of country music alive, while doing so in a manner that is energetic, inviting, informed, and broad-based where people of all stripes—the Saturday night and Sunday morning people—can come together and enjoy the gift of good country music together.
What's better than a new album from Marty Stuart? Try two new albums from Marty Stuart released at the same damn time, and that's just what will transpire when the scarved one doles out the double album Saturday Night & Sunday Morning on September 30th, backed by The Fabulous Superlatives.
I've been wanting to tug on the sainted Saving Country Music reader's ear about Moot Davis for years, and who knows what all kinds of dumb excuses have conspired up to this point to not allow that to happen. But the release of his latest "Goin' In Hot" is just about the perfect damn opportunity if there ever was one to stop everything else down and sing the praises of this man's contributions.
If anybody asked me point blank, who is the artist that is most saving country music right now? I would answer without hesitation, "Marty Stuart." Marty Stuart is the man. He breathes country music, and helps preserve it and pay it forward almost as if it was an involuntary action. He doesn't know how to do anything different.
Lower Broadway in Nashville has a new songstress haunting the streets, and she's a good one. If you want to know how to put out one badass independent/underground country album in Nashville, you could use One Good Thing as a template. With impeccable country taste and instincts, Sarah assembles 12 original and authentic honky-tonk hard country songs for your listening enjoyment.

All sites will not update plugins through the hub and I am not able to add a new site to the hub. Is there a known issue or is there something I can try.
What happens when you try? Do you get any error messages at all?
Have you tried installing the dashboard plugin manually on the site you wish to add, as that should then automatically add it to the hub.
Also, can you try doing an update on 1 site a time & see if they update then rather than trying all at once?

Report: Google Play app downloads lead iOS App Store by 145%
In 2017, smartphone app revenue grew by 35 percent across Android and iOS, according to Sensor Tower, with users spending $38.5 billion in Apple's App Store compared to $20.1 billion in the Google Play Store. This week, a report from App Annie shows that, while app sales in the iOS App Store had a significant lead on Google Play Store sales in 2017, it was a different story when it came to overall download rates. Google's Play Store saw a whopping 145 percent more application downloads than Apple's App Store.
In fact, the Google Play Store recorded its highest-ever download rates in 2017, peaking during the holiday season with 19 billion downloads in the final quarter of 2017. (Note that the number only includes new downloads, not re-installs or app updates.) A large portion of downloads came from developing markets like India, Indonesia, and Brazil; emerging markets drove Google Play's downloads to grow 10 percent year-over-year. India actually surpassed the US in terms of app downloads across iOS and Android.
Souce: App Annie
The US held the number one spot in the App Store and Play Store when it came to consumer spend market share in 2017, and saw the strongest year-over-year growth. On the Google Play Store, South Korea took the second spot while the Apple App Store had Taiwan in the same place. Germany was the number three country in both app stores.
Mobile users spent a collective $17 billion dollars on applications across Android and iOS in Q4 2017, with both the App Store and Play Store experiencing over 20 percent year-over-year growth in revenue. But iOS continued to hold its substantial sales revenue lead, accounting for $11.5 billion of the total app sales revenue globally.
According to App Annie, the greatest source of revenue growth was the introduction of in-app subscriptions in video apps. Productivity apps, too, led the charge on Google Play, thanks in part to the introduction of app subscriptions for Google Drive storage.

If you've been paying attention, you'll know that a number of nations across the globe still have laws in place that make it illegal to be queer*.
One of those nations is Brunei, whose anti-gay and adultery law goes into effect this week. According to CNN, anyone found guilty of adultery, or loving or having sex with someone of the same gender, will be stoned to death under Sharia law.
The strict new laws were announced by the Sultan of Brunei, Hassanal Bolkiah, in 2014, and have been rolled out gradually in the small nation on the island of Borneo in Southeast Asia.
The Sultan "does not expect other people to accept and agree with it, but that it would suffice if they just respect the nation in the same way that it also respects them," according to the government website.
No respect for you or your backwards, barbaric laws, and Elton John and George Clooney agree with me. Here's The Guardian:
Elton John has joined George Clooney in calling for a boycott of nine Brunei-owned hotels over the sultanate's new death penalty laws for gay sex and adultery.
"I commend my friend, George Clooney, for taking a stand against the anti-gay discrimination and bigotry taking place in the nation of Brunei – a place where gay people are brutalised, or worse – by boycotting the sultan's hotels," the singer wrote on his Twitter page late on Saturday.
The 72-year-old, a veteran gay rights campaigner, said his "heart went out" to staff at the hotels, but that "we must send a message, however we can, that such treatment is unacceptable".
Clooney mentioned nine hotels in the US, Britain, France and Italy, including London's exclusive Dorchester and the Beverly Hills Hotel in Los Angeles.
Clooney called for the boycott earlier this week, saying: "Every single time we stay at or take meetings at or dine at any of these nine hotels, we are putting money directly into the pockets of men who choose to stone and whip to death their own citizens for being gay or accused of adultery."
Homosexuality is already illegal in the sultanate, but will become a capital offence this week.
* 'queer' is used here as an umbrella term to describe anyone under the LGBTQ spectrum.

Enoy your travels! I'll be interested to see what you come up with for Guinea-Bissau. I recently started reading a Singapore book that didn't grab me, so I did some more research and I'm planning to read The Art of Charlie Chan Hock Chye, a graphic novel that won the 2016 Singapore Literature Prize, instead.
That book you chose for Singapore looks really interesting; I might very well follow you down that path.
Still not having a huge amount of luck with Guinea-Bissau, but there HAS to be something out there, right?!?!?

Planning a Charter Bus Rental in Snowmass Village, Colorado?
As with many places in Colorado, Snowmass Village is an attraction for visitors wanting to enjoy the skiing conditions. Snowmass Village offers a wide range of accommodations to fit the budget of visitors, and is one of four mountains in the area that have more than 4,500 acres of terrain. While skiing, take time to drop in at the Wapiti Wildlife Center at the top of Elk Camp lift. You can join a naturalist to learn about the winter wildlife, avalanches and other topics of interest.
If you want a break from skiing, hook up with a dog sled team at the Krabloonik Restaurant and Kennel. The sled rides will take you through the wilderness areas of Snowmass Village and guests can enjoy a special lunch or dinner at the Krabloonik Restaurant after the trip.
Visitors to Snowmass Village can also enjoy a snowshoe tour that will take them through the spruce-fir forests, along a mountain stream and guests will also receive information about the animals that make the Rocky Mountains their home in the winter. Snowshoe tours are quieter than motorized tours, giving those on the tour a better chance of seeing the wildlife natural to the mountain area.
Snowmass Village has almost any activity you can think of, available to make your visit a great one. If you're interested in paintball, the Run and Gun Paintball facility offers several outdoor courses and games to choose from. The Snowmass Mountain Outfitters handles the paintball activity and many more like mountain biking and trail hiking and guided overnight camping trips.
A four-wheel drive tour could prove to be one of the most exciting tours available in the Snowmass Village area. Riders begin by heading up the mountain to the historic Burlingame Cabin on Mount Daly in the middle of nowhere. Here you will get to see and learn about the geology and history of the area and you may get a chance to see some of the wildlife known to inhabit this area.

A full course country style dinner will be enjoyed before the group settles at the campfire to be entertained by live music. The scenery of the stars above you and the tow lights below will highlight the return trip to Snowmass Village.
Throughout the summer, Snowmass Village becomes alive with music. Music for your entertainment will come from a variety of genres including everything from reggae to classical jazz. Free concerts are schedules in Snowmass Village for tourist to enjoy and depending on the weekend, you may get to enjoy the free movies also.
Snowmass Village offers great places for shopping and eating and many activities for families as well as adults. You'll have the chance to experience the mountains like you never knew them with the numerous tours and guided rides available in the area. Snowmass Village does its best to entertain and welcome visitors to their little area of the world.


Happy Easter! Jesus is risen!
Industry research shows that careers in science, technology, engineering, arts and math are among the fastest growing and highest paying job sectors in the United States. St. Anthony High School's STEAM integrated curriculum nurtures interest and better prepares students for careers in these fields. The technology sector alone is expected to add 1.4 million jobs to the national economy by 2020, according to STEM education advocate groups, CODE2040 and the Level Playing Field Institute. Findings also indicate, however, that 70% of STEM jobs will remain unfilled within the same time period, illustrating either a lack of interest in these jobs or a lack of qualified candidates.
It is St. Anthony High School's goal to spark student interest in the possibility of pursuing STEAM related careers early to provide them with the tools to succeed. SAHS will offer students a wide variety of options, enabling them to tailor their STEAM curriculum through a selection of interconnected project-based courses designed to address problem solving and real world applications.


Theresa May is adamant Brexit will go ahead, after narrowly surviving a no-confidence vote.
"This now gives us all the opportunity to finding a way forward for Brexit, she said in a speech delivered in front of 10 Downing St.
Ms May's government earlier on Thursday (NZ time) scraped through 325-306 in a no-confidence motion brought by the opposition Labour Party.
The close call hasn't shaken her determination to see the UK through the Brexit process. The present deadline is March 29, but Ms May's deal reached with the EU was voted down by lawmakers on Wednesday (NZ time), throwing her plans into disarray.
"Overwhelmingly the British people want us to get on with delivering Brexit," Ms May said, despite polls suggesting the opposite.
"I believe it is my duty to deliver on the British people's instruction to leave the European Union, and I intend to do so. So now MPs have made clear what they don't want, we must all work constructively together to set out what Parliament does want."
She has invited MPs from her party and others to "come together to find a way forward".
"This is now the time to put self-interest aside."
So far she has met representatives from the Liberal Democrats, the Scottish National Party and Plaid Cymru.
Tomorrow she hoped to meet others from "the widest possible range of views across Parliament" including Labour and confidence-and-supply partners DUP.
"I am disappointed that the leader of the Labour party has not so far chosen to take part, but our door remains open," she said.
Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn said he won't talk with Ms May until she guarantees the UK won't leave the EU without a deal.
"The government must remove clearly once and for all the catastrophe of a no-deal exit from the European Union and all the chaos that would result from that," Mr Corbyn said immediately after the failed no-confidence vote.

Jon Rahm's fitness routine is a big reason why he's the new World No. 1
By: Rachel Bleier July 22, 2020
Jon Rahm is the new World No. 1 after winning the Memorial at Jack's Place, but he didn't get there overnight.
He got there by committing to a process that would improve his body, his swing and his on-course performance, a process that started seven years ago with performance coach and founder of the THP System, Spencer Tatum.
Rahm's backswing is notoriously short, and he has limited internal rotation in his hips, which is why his fitness routine has focused on mobility, stability and sequencing.
Despite his shorter backswing, Rahm is able to generate plenty of clubhead speed, recently hitting 144 mph with a weighted club. The key to this? A workout that trains him to "move well, move weight and move fast."
In the first video, Rahm is working on his explosiveness. By aggressively jumping out of the half-squat position, he is using the ground to explode up. This strengthens his quads and hamstrings, but also translates to the way he uses the ground to power through the golf ball.
Another important part of Rahm's training routine is swinging weighted clubs, which has been proven to improve clubhead speed. If you can swing a weighted club fast, just think how easy it will be to swing your own clubs the same way. Rahm hits an impressive 144 mph with this weighted club, which means his clubhead speed with a regular golf club in his hand is even higher.
Maintaining posture is also incredibly important in the golf swing, especially for people who have limited mobility to begin with, because the golf swing is all about limiting the variables. For Rahm, doing a lunge while maintaining his posture helps train the stability he needs in his swing. Including functional, compound movements like this in his fitness routine help Rahm translate this and other basic principles to the golf swing.


Livin' the Dream: Computer Anyone?
How many of you out there have had to search for your computer/video camera/wallet/checkbook/etc....on a daily basis? Let me explain why I have to. I usually keep my home pretty organized. I usually know where most of the items are, but often these specific items in my home go missing and I often spend 10-20 minutes everyday looking for them. Frustrating? Humorous? I like to think that all of us have a little bit of the Obsessive Compulsive Disorder for one thing or another. This happens to be Josh's. 9 times out of 10, as soon as we find the missing item I hear Josh exclaim, "Oh yeah... that's where I hid the... (fill in the blank)" sometimes this is followed by him rapping, "OCD...Yeah you know me..." Josh likes to hide our expensive electronic items in different places around the house so they won't get stolen if someone breaks in. More often than not I find myself laughing as I look for these items. It's one of the quirks about our marriage that I kind of like. I mean how many people can honestly say that they look for their computer everyday. It's like searching for the buried treasure...it makes it all the more worthwhile once you find it!
Hello, my name is Mr. Josh and I endorse this message.
Glad you are laughing. I predict in 5 years you will be screaming, "JOSH! YOU CRAZY !#**@# --NOBODY IS GOING TO BREAK IN AND STEAL THE STUPID COMPUTOR ALREADY!!"
I say this because Brent recently cut up this cute little note of "60 Things I love about you" that I made him when we were dating. He said they were all the things that drove me crazy about him now! Sad...maybe I should redo the list.
You hide the computer? LOL. How funny. What will you do when you guys buy a TV? : ) But...better safe than sorry I guess, right?
So that's definately not a bad idea but to tell you the truth, we had our home broken into while we were living with our in-laws. Between us we had three fairly new laptops. We were never very worried about things and had them sitting on couches and the coffee tables and while they tore apart our beds and drawers, stole our jewelry boxes and jars of change; they never found any of the laptops. Go figure!
That is so funny! It is so true we all have our OCD things. I thought it was so funny I told Mitch about this and he said you guys should get a safe. I think you should buy Josh a nice safe for a present, he would love it hahah. Then no more looking for things lol!
Hi, I just added your blog to my list so I can keep tabs on you guys! Thanks for the comment! and hopefully you'll feel like a trip to AZ soon!


My buddy WB7TIM did this video of us making contacts from Portland to Seattle on 2m SSB.

I did a quick test of how I plan to use the KX3 portable to send email over the winlink system. Here's how it turned out.


Yorkshire Terriers are particularly good for dog lovers with allergies. Their hair is very charming indeed and I have used two different kinds in my image.
You can see that its hair is relatively long and thin in the face, while it is darker on the body and takes up more space to mirror the curls of the dog.
Have a look at his really flashing eyes, they truly show the energy and intelligence of the Yorkshire Terrier.


3D minutiae extraction in 3D fingerprint scans.
Traditionally, fingerprint image acquisition was based on contact. However the conventional touch-based fingerprint acquisition introduces some problems such as distortions and deformations to the fingerprint image. The most recent technology for fingerprint acquisition is touchless or 3D live scans introducing higher quality fingerprint scans. However, there is a need to develop new algorithms to match 3D fingerprints. In this dissertation, a novel methodology is proposed to extract minutiae in the 3D fingerprint scans. The output can be used for 3D fingerprint matching. The proposed method is based on curvature analysis of the surface. The method used to extract minutiae includes the following steps: smoothing; computing the principal curvature; ridges and ravines detection and tracing; cleaning and connecting ridges and ravines; and minutiae detection. First, the ridges and ravines are detected using curvature tensors. Then, ridges and ravines are traced. Post-processing is performed to obtain clean and connected ridges and ravines based on fingerprint pattern. Finally, minutiae are detected using a graph theory concept. A quality map is also introduced for 3D fingerprint scans. Since a degraded area may occur during the scanning process, especially at the edge of the fingerprint, it is critical to be able to determine these areas. Spurious minutiae can be filtered out after applying the quality map. The algorithm is applied to the 3D fingerprint database and the result is very encouraging. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first minutiae extraction methodology proposed for 3D fingerprint scans.

Purcell's work on Clifton Cathedral is now complete
After three years, Purcell's renovation of the brutalist Clifton Cathedral in Bristol is now complete.
The modern Grade II* listed Roman Catholic Cathedral Church of SS. Peter and Paul is now watertight for the first time. Built in 1969-73, and designed by Ronald Weeks, E S Jennett and Antoni Poremba of the Percy Thomas Partnership, it was the last major cathedral to be built in Britain.

It has been critically acclaimed for its serenity and simplicity, and the modest 'theatre-like' composition of its irregular, elongated hexagonal plan. However, the building was never fully watertight and, despite numerous attempts to resolve the problem, the leakages remained unresolved. 45 years of water ingress caused damage to the internal finishes as well as affecting the unseen structure and services.
Purcell addressed repairs to the building's roof and structure which is composed of offset, superimposed hexagons and part-hexagons rising in three layers to a hexagonal, pyramidal cupola above the sanctuary.
We also improved visitor comfort with internal improvements of the conditions, as well as renovating and unveiling previously inaccessible areas such as the gallery over the baptistery and reopening a staircase access. During the restoration, the Cathedral remained open and held eight masses a week, alongside baptisms, weddings and funerals.
Our conviction was for the building to become watertight, and safe and open for use, but also not to lose any of its rigour and quality as a superb exponent of the late brutalist era. The works have been undertaken with the intention to both repair and protect the building, and to magnify and celebrate its original design and detail. The Cathedral, in common with many buildings of its type and era, was built in difficult times. Our aim for the repairs projects was, at all times, to consider what the intent for its design and execution had been in order to remain true to the building's principles.
Clifford Martin, Partner at Purcell's Bristol office
The work carefully retained the distinctive aesthetic of the brutalist building which includes Russian Redwood course grain board-marking and monolithic aggregate panels. The repair and renovation works have made the Cathedral safe, will prevent further deterioration of the fabric, and have ensured the building it is fit for purpose; a place that worshipers and visitors alike can enjoy. Purcell is proud to be a chapter of the heritage restoration of this iconic place of worship.
An award-winning architectural and heritage consultancy practice, we employ a talented workforce of 250 people across the UK and around the world. We have now grown to have UK studios in Bristol, Cambridge, Canterbury, Cardiff, Colchester, London, Manchester, Norwich, Oxford, York and Leeds, and overseas in Hong Kong, Sydney, Melbourne and Hobart.
