Is my thriftiness extreme? Am I a little bit OCD?
This thriftiness even spills over into utility costs. This is part thriftiness/part being environmentally conscious. I will never do laundry unless I have a full load (doing a small load of laundry may use less water, but it uses about the same amount of electricity/energy.) The same goes for dishes--the space has to be extremely maximized, and I will use the same glass for an entire day. Or, if I go out to eat (like to Chick-Fil-A), I will use that cup as long as possible to avoid having to dirty a dish, thereby extending further the time between washes. Drew laughs at me because I don't even use an ice cream scoop for ice scream even though we have several--I will use the same spoon to dip my ice scream into my bowl as I use eating it. If I make a casserole and we eat half of it, I will never move the remaining food into a new, smaller dish. We don't lack fridge space and I would never want to dirty a new dish, as that is wasteful to me. I could go on and on forever on the crazy little things I do. I am thinking this may have come partly from my dad.
Where did this thriftiness come from?
I remember growing up that he was always reminding us to turn out the lights when we left a room we were previously in. This habit is so ingrained in me now, that I always turn off lights when I leave rooms. Unfortunately, sometimes Drew is still in those rooms. :-( Also, Dad would drive an extra mile to save pennies per gallon on gas. Although I complained about it as a child, now I completely understand as I have become much like him. I love my cheap gas-finder app on my phone.
Now, on to the point of this post. Many of my neighbors often put perfectly good things out to the curb for the garbage truck to pick up. Well, other people's trash is definitely my treasure.
I know that my thriftiness may be a little annoying at times. Especially to Drew as he gets embarrassed when I knock on neighbor's doors to ask if I can have their junk. But, here is picture proof of the benefits of my thriftiness.
|Little Tikes Adjust 'N Jam Basketball goal: found on neighbor's curb, left for trash pickup. (approx $50 new)
|Little Tikes Clubhouse Swing Set ($594.49 on Amazon)--we paid $60 after searching daily on craigslist
|Luke enjoys his new swingset!
|Our Toddler Paradise--total cost, $60 (The little Tikes red/blue slide up front retails for $50 and was thrown in for free when we picked up the swing set).
|Little Tikes Turtle Sandbox ($49.99 new at Target) and Step 2 Sandbox ($50 new)-- found free on neighbors' curb
|Luke enjoys the slide on his new swingset.
|Step 2 Naturally Playful Storybook Cottage ($400 new)--free from neighbor who was going to put it to curb.
- Step 2 Naturally Playful Storybook Cottage: $400 new, we paid $0
- Little Tikes Clubhouse Swing Set: $550-600 new, we paid $60
- Little Tikes Basketball Goal: $50 new, we paid $0
- Little Tikes Slide: $50 new, we paid $0
- Sandboxes: $100 total new, we paid $0
Total Retail Price: $1200
We paid: $60 for a savings of $1140!
Yes, some of the items are not perfect, but do you think this little toddler knows the difference?

Dr Bryan Mukandi
Researcher biography
Bryan Mukandi's background is in medicine, public health, and philosophy. His research interests revolve around the health and well-being of those who Fanon described as 'the damned of the earth'.
Bryan's medical studies now take the form of an interest in the medical humanities, particularly medical education, bioethics and the philosophy of medicine. Much of this interest is focused on the phenomenology of the doctor-patient relationship, beginning with what it means to see or be seen by a health practitioner, especially when the patient or client is a member of a marginalised group. His public health work similarly focuses on projects directed at improving health outcomes of those who bear the brunt of social inequality, and how those projects and the individuals at whom they are directed are understood. The bulk of this work is currently directed to the study of the social and emotional wellbeing of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander youth, and its gendered dimensions.
All of this is undergirded by Bryan's philosophical work, which draws on continental European philosophy, African philosophy, and Black thought more broadly (the philosophy, literature, visual arts and music of Black and Indigenous peoples). He continues to explore and deconstruct the existential and phenomenological dimensions of coloniality, and the various ways in which the colonised have historically understood and today articulate their sense of themselves, and of their situations.

For the University of Vermont's Class of 2020, a traditional commencement remains a red-letter day in their futures, the time when they will reunite on the University Green in graduation gowns and mortarboards. Though that event, date to be determined, is a hopeful day on the horizon, the official conferral of 3,000 degrees on Sunday, May 17, to graduates from 39 states and 30 foreign countries was its own milestone worthy of marking in its own way.
The class's academic achievement was saluted online on Sunday with a UVM Class of 2020 Celebration that included video remarks from university and state leaders, a photo slideshow of graduates, and announcements of Outstanding Student Leadership Awards.
Words from UVM President Suresh Garimella and Vermont Governor Phil Scott '80 spoke to the challenge of these times and how the Class of 2020 has met that challenge.
"You have shown a strength and tenacity that I know will keep you in good stead in the years to come. The past few months have been tough, not just for our UVM community, but for millions around the world. And yet, here you are, soon-to-be graduates despite challenges that few of us ever imagined," Garimella said in his opening remarks. "I have no doubt you will go far. And I look forward to the time — soon — when we can celebrate your achievements on the Green, together and in person," he concluded.
Here's a glimpse at how our grads celebrated May 17. See more Catamount celebrations around the world, or share yours using #UVMGrad.

Araya finally on DVDMay 29, 2011
In 1959 Venezuelan director Margot Benacerraf's Araya shared the Cannes Film Festival's International Critics Prize with Alain Renais' Hiroshima, Mon Amour but she never secured a distribution deal and the movie slipped into obscurity until it was rescued by the superheroes of cinema at Milestone – who previously rescued Charles Burnett's Killer of Sheep, Mikhail Kalatozov's I Am Cuba and Kent MacKenzie's The Exiles from obscurity.
And Araya is certainly worth the rescue effort; it's a sui generis cine-essay, a kind of tone poem, about a day in the life of salt miners in the Venezuelan peninsula of Araya, a place where life is grindingly monotonous and hasn't changed in 500 years.Benacerraf follows three families – the Peredas family, who work through the night in the salt marshes; the fishermen of the Ortiz family; and the Salaz clan, who work days as "salineros," collecting salt.
A slow, contemplative film without a lot of narration, Araya is a documentary that aspires to the highest kind of cinematic art, a marriage of sound and vision, a beautiful moving painting.

Article Title
Carbon Pricing Initiatives in Western North America: Blueprint for Global Climate Change Policy
In the absence of effective international and federal initiatives to combat the impacts of global climate change, many state, local and regional jurisdictions are passing or proposing measures to curb carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions. The province of British Columbia, Canada, as well as the cities of San Francisco, California and Boulder, Colorado have carbon taxes in place, and similar actions have been proposed in the Oregon and Washington state legislatures. The state of California and the province of Québec have linked together in a joint cap-and-trade system. This Article will examine the fundaments of carbon taxation, including identification of the tax base (the pollutant) and taxpayer (consumer, manufacturer, etc.), rates of taxation, measurement standards for tax assessment, exemptions, and use of revenue, and then compare them to cap-and-trade systems. It will assess this family of market initiatives based on the following criteria: (1) administerability, (2) political feasibility, (3) revenue generation, (4) efficiency, (5) equity, and (6) efficacy. Lastly, the Article considers the constitutional, practical, and political challenges to reform. The Article concludes that all states and provinces in North America should link together in a strict cap and-trade system while local jurisdictions within the region should pass broad-based carbon taxes. Any revenue generated from these market mechanisms can be recycled to low-income taxpayers and used for carbon sequestration and other "green" purposes. Although the urgency for binding law on a national and international scale is apparent but not immediately forthcoming, regional, state and municipal initiatives can serve as blueprints for innovative and effective climate policy change.

Who's living in my Carburator
Note: SS180s produced in 1966 and before used a 117 main jet in the carb and they had problems seizing. Piaggio then switched to a 120 main jet and recommended all earlier models do the same.

I don't know how you are for available time to work on your scoot but, I would suggest that you do as much of the work that you can yourself. It saves money, but, more importantly, it teaches you about your scoot, how everything works and how it all goes together. It's fun (well, I think so anyway) and it gives you a real knowledge base so you never really have to take your scoot to any scoot service shop in the future (you just fix it yourself). It's very rewarding when you bring the scoot back from the grave and make it live again. "They" say we men so this because we can't give birth....

I agree with Paul. The cleaning of the carb is really easy. The main keys of good running motor of GS160/SS180 are the timing and the carb condition. That's it.

First off thanx for adding to this Blog in the making. I hope that inspires and helps other restore, and in my opinion, get back on the road vintage beauties.
Short answer:
You are correct & my wife and I agree with you. From here on out I plan to box up what we have done until next Fall (a lot going on) and then VERY slowly put everything back together researching each step and peice a long the way. I need to bond with bike.
Long answer:
I have a 14 week old son and have made a career change -- went back to school at 30 (now 33)-- and became a teacher. This is my first year teaching and sucks up so much of me.
When Lisa and I first bought this bike our goal was to do as much of it as possible, but then decided to have a baby and also make a few big financial commitments so (1) we complete the bike while we had the money and (2) due to the rarity of the bike I would not have to make any "beginner's mistakes" -- as I'd rather learn on a more common bike and finally (3) we could unvail the SS at Seattle at AmeriVespa this summer -- we have lots of family in Portland, OR and that is where my wife is from.
What we quickly learned is (1) bikes take time to put back together correctly and (2) my gawd it gets expensive. Way too expensive to have another person do it for me. I will save over $1,000 by bonding with this bike and doing the work myself, plus I will get the satisfaction and pride of doing the work myself.
Furthermore, since we have to do the work ourselves I know longer feel stressed out about money and timing and we freed up some funds . . . we are looking at a 1964 Lammy TV 175 with two motors in package for $1300 next weeked. We'll probably pick it up, box it up, and open it after the SS is done.

LANSING, Mich. – A report released this week by a Michigan state commission recommended the state not set a limit on how much THC drivers can have in their system before being deemed impaired.
The Impaired Driving Safety Commission, a six-member panel mandated by state law to research and recommend a scientifically-supported THC threshold, released its report Friday.
The Gov. Snyder-appointed board is made up of a mix of people from different backgrounds, including a representative from Michigan State Police, a medical marijuana patient, toxicologist, doctors and professors with expertise in the areas of traffic safety and cannabis use.
"Based on the total body of knowledge presently available, the Commission finds there is no scientifically supported threshold of THC bodily content that would be indicative of impaired driving," the report reads in part. "There is a poor correlation between driving impairment and the blood (plasma) levels of THC at the time of blood collection."
According to the report, THC levels in blood drop rapidly, but impairment happens more slowly and peaks after blood levels have already dropped.
Additionally, level of impairment varies based on prior usage.
"The implications of tolerance to cannabis are that lower blood THC levels in infrequent users may result in impairment that would only be experienced at higher THC levels by regular cannabis users," the report's authors wrote. "Therefore, because there is a poor correlation between THC bodily content and driving impairment, the Commission recommends against the establishment of a threshold of THC bodily content for determining driving impairment and instead recommends the use of a roadside sobriety test(s) to determine whether a driver is impaired."
According to the commission's report, of the 33 states that have legalized both recreational and medical marijuana, six have adopted impaired driving per se thresholds of THC bodily content in blood:
- Colorado: 5 ng/ml
- Montana: 5 ng/ml
- Nevada: 2 ng/ml
- Ohio: 2 ng/ml
- Pennsylvania: 1 ng/ml
- Washington: 5 ng/ml
Michigan voted to legalize recreational marijuana in 2018, but legislation is still in the works.

1st Quarter, 2007: "The most overt and immediate risk to the US economy is the real estate market." It appears the sub-prime market problems could lead to more precipitous drops in real estate prices, drop in the value of the dollar, and substantial stock market losses. …the chances for a substantial market unraveling is high enough to take precautionary moves in retiree and more conservative accounts [April 18, 2007 – DJIA 12,804]
March 17, 2008 – Commentary on Bear Sterns purchase by J.P. Morgan. Unprecedented negative conditions for lending could lead to a liquidity crunch. "Some conservative accounts already protected with hedges and for others it is not time to be aggressive [investing] yet." "I see and hear of many groups now jumping into the market now that the conforming rate limits have been raised. Please consider very carefully before buying the "bargain" foreclosure down the street… a day may come, very soon, when that bargain price no longer looks so good." [DJIA 11,972]
June 5, 2008: – "The average urban U.S. home price has declined by about 14%. Does that mean properties are good values? NO." I believe most homes in most areas of the country still remain significantly overvalued." [DJIA 12,604]
June 23, 2008: "A Recession May Be 'Just What the Doctor Ordered.'" .
. The type of pain coming up for the economy may be necessary to get people to change their ways
– and that will be good, long-term, for everyone. [DJIA 11,731.06]
October 21, 2008 – Op Ed in New York Times by Warren Buffett: Buffet stating he is buying U.S. Stocks, to be "greedy when others are fearful." Buffett admits he hasn't "the faintest idea as to whether stocks will be higher or lower a month – or a year – from now. What is likely, however, is the market will move higher, perhaps substantially so, well before either sentiment or the economy turns up. So if you wait for the Robins it is over" [DJIA 9,017.30]
October 24, 2008: "A Thousand Popping Hedge Funds." We argued that "many hedge funds will go belly up soon" and many investors who thought hedge funds were smart investments will suddenly realize how foolish they were. Don't waste money chasing high fee illusionary stable and above-market returns of hedge funds – some are about to shock the world by going bust. Invest in things you understand and that make sense. [DJIA 8,088.63]
January 8, 2009: "Elliott Asset Management had Nothing Invested with Madoff." As predicted, several hedge funds went bust in spectacular fashion, but still people asked us if we had exposure to Madoff's hedge fund (the largest Ponzi scheme in history). [DJIA 8,593.52]
March 9, 2009: (released March 10, 2009)
"Record Lows May Spell Opportunity for Superior Long-Term Returns… Once again we are becoming more aggressive " "This edition explains why we are, like we were in late October 2008, becoming more aggressive with our investment purchases. I have never seen as
much pessimism as I see today. And like the euphoria of the housing market spelling disaster the current pessimism may spell opportunity" March 9, 2009 (the date this newsletter was written) was the day the US stock market hit bottom. [DJIA: 6,547.01 (3/9/09), DJIA: 6,926.49 (3/10/09)]
June 5, 2009: "Should You Start Thinking About Real Estate Again?"
"today… there are too many good investments out there to possibly buy them all. Many stocks and bonds are stillfantastic bargains and now so is residential real estate [in certain markets]. We confess our March 9 newsletter should not bestow guru status unto us for "calling the market bottom," We owned the sectors number 1 stock in the NYSE, NASDAQ, and closed-end mutual fund on the same day – all in different sectors.
In a portfolio of about 30 equities positions the chances are very remote of that happening by chance (perhaps as low as 1 in 500 million). [DJIA: 8,763.13]
July 31, 2009: "There are still significant opportunities in stocks." We will stop making significant asset allocation changes as things appear to be "back to normal." Congratulations for not succumbing to panic and for surviving what may be the worst bear market of our lifetimes (implying the bear market truly was over unlike what most pundits were saying). [DJIA: 9,171.61]
April 1, 2010: "StillAttractive Stock Valuations": Stocks still attractive, some bonds are becoming fully valued, municipal bonds are still attractive, gold is unattractive. [DJIA: 10,927.07]
June, 6 2010: "Markets Are Simple – Don't be 'Crazy Old Men' [emotional stock traders]": Creative writing newsletter trying to explain, in yet another way, why we should not react to oft-crazy stock market price swings. [DJIA: 9,931.97]
November 11, 2010: "Weapons of Mass Poverty":
It appears to me we need to throw traditional asset allocation models out the window (balanced portfolios will never work)…for these rules of thumb and formulas of the financial advisory practice may actually be catalyzing the creation more frequent in severe asset bubbles of modern time when theoretically, with unlimited access to information, there should be few to none. Bonds are overvalued, those at or near retirement could be facing a slow moving train wreck as their returns do not keep pace with taxes and/or inflation. "Safe" investments are much riskier than most believe them to be. The solution is to invest more in stocks and preferred shares. [DJIA: 11,175.17]
August, 8 2011: "Commentary on Recent Market Activity": Another reminder to not be emotional. This commentary placed the recent credit market downgrade of the USA into context of past historical events (Cuban Missile Crisis, World Wars I & II, September 11, 2001, etc). With the recent stock market sell-off due to the USA's credit downgrade (and the oddly perverse flight to buy US Treasuries, which drove down interest rates further) makes stock valuations appear quite attractive and removes much of the benefit of placing hedges.
The credit downgrade of the USA exemplified why, in my last newsletter, I stated "safe" investments were riskier than most perceived. There could be another big market sell-off to come but I think it is less likely than in 2008-9. Hopefully it will happen and give all of you a second chance at deals of a lifetime. [DJIA: 10,809.85]
October 10, 2011: "Investors Jump from Opportunity Into the Fire": Investors are dumping attractively– priced stocks and buying overvalued bonds. Why do investors keep making the same mistakes again and again? [DJIA: 11,433.18]
January, 2011)
portfolios will never work). (revised edition published in "Advisor Perspectives" we need to throw traditional asset allocation models out the window (balanced formulas of the financial advisory practice may actually be catalyzing the creation more frequent in severe asset bubbles of modern time
June, 2012: U.S. real estate presents perhaps the most compelling investment opportunity at this moment in time. Chinese real estate presents perhaps the biggest foreseeable danger to the world economy (and to Chinese one-party rule). A combined European debt and Chinese real estate meltdown is a definite possibility and would have extreme repercussions on financial markets worldwide. I encourage many of my clients to consider taking money from my managed accounts to buy more U.S. real estate now. I believe the real estate rally is for real – and may eventually surpass the highs I once vocally warned was a dangerous bubble. Today's economic reality is different, and it favors real estate and those holding debt (including well-run companies with real assets with manageable debt burdens that could benefit from rolling over debt at lower servicing costs), therefore world equities are at relatively attractive valuations (though with appreciable near-term risks), U.S. Treasury bonds and other "high quality"/"safe" fixed income investments are becoming substantially overpriced. Though there may be events to come that could continue to increase fixed income investment values, I believe that many investors best advised to take the higher "risk" with potential much higher reward prospects by emphasizing select real estate, equity, and hybrid investments..

Hector Hernandez eventually visited the doctor this summer to urge tried.
His friends titillated him regarding his brewage belly, even supposing he didn't drink beer and his abdomen and weight didn't appear to vary once he exercised even supposing his arms were obtaining diluent, consistent with a piece of news unleash from the University of Southern Calif., wherever he sought-after care. His abdomen was additionally laborious.
Hernandez was eventually diagnosed with retroperitoneal sarcoma, cancer that starts within the fat cells at the rear of the abdomen.
He eventually had the neoplasm removed in an exceedingly difficult six-hour operation, and per week later, he was quite a hundred pounds lighter.
Hernandez is hardly the primary person to write down off his unexplained weight gain solely to later establish that it absolutely was because of a neoplasm.
In May, AN Alabama lady had a 50-pound cyst removed that she at the start though was simply because of weight gain, consistent with CNN. the web is full of stories like these.
So, how will somebody grasp if his or her weight gain is because of dietary or different problems versus a tumor? "It isn't continually simple," Margaret von Mehren, MD, chief of the Division of cancer Medical medicine and associate director of clinical analysis at Fox Chase Cancer Center, tells Yahoo lifestyle.
"But some clues that this may well be one thing totally different than simply [regular] weight gain is that the burden gain is asymmetric or happening in no time."
This kind of neoplasm typically doesn't cause pain, "but patients will notice a modification in their gut habits (usually a lot of sluggish) and feel full a lot of quickly,"
von Mehren says. "Also once lying down, they may notice feeling uncomfortable inbound positions or having a sensation of fullness on one aspect." A
person's garments can also not match the manner they accustomed and will be tighter on one aspect than the opposite, she says.
"It is feasible that if a neoplasm is giant, it may cause pressure on the blood vessels to the legs and there are often fluid retentions of the legs.
One ought to fret particularly if there's swelling in one leg and not the opposite," she adds.
"There's no manner in terms of symptoms to definitively say 'This is because of cancer and this can be not,'" John Mullinax, MD, a surgical medical specialist within the cancer Department at Moffitt Cancer Center, tells Yahoo lifestyle.
"Any unexplained modification in weight ought to be tried."
Of course, there can be several different reasons why you're gaining weight, together with a thyroid condition, therefore it doesn't hurt to see in along with your medical care physician for a workup if you've noticed current unexplained weight gain.
"I would additionally request medical attention if you are feeling the burden goes on one aspect
and not the opposite, otherwise you notice area unit|you're} feeling full a lot of quickly and actually are intake less food however still gain weight," von Mehren says.
"The challenge is that several of those tumors are often slow-growing, therefore changes might not be obvious."

This week's Style has my preview of the first stage show by The Checkout Girl, Jennifer Lemons. If you only know her through her funny and sometimes ribald tweets, you may be surprised to know that she is thoughtful, smart, and insightful in conversation. I've interviewed stand up comics that are either non-stop joke-making talkers (a la Robin Williams) or shut-down obviously angry people who work out their angst via comedy (a la…well, perhaps I'll keep that to myself). Ms. Lemons is neither, just a sassy and sex-positive writer who's taking her act to the stage. I'll be there Saturday to see how it turns out.
Also in Style this week are a review of VCU's "Grease" and a short preview of Stage B's "Brew." It's a perfect time to see some of these not quite on the beaten path offerings since the beaten path is going to be thick with holiday shows any day now.

Raccoon Attic Artesia, Athens, Atwater
Raccoon in Attic in the cities of Artesia, Athens, Atwater?
Anytime Animal Control
Our company provides humane removal of Raccoons from attics in all cities of Los Angeles.
Baby Raccoons are now mobile and this is when the problems begin, so don't wait call now!
Raccoons in attics will poop and pee all over insulation, and require all insulation to be removed and disinfect, and deoderized. Costing thousands of dollars
Raccoons can get sick, and do carry parasites that you can pick up too. Fleas, ticks, and lice can get picked up from raccoons! Raccoon round worm is an intestinal parasite which raccoons can pass to people. Raccoon Roundworm spores are in the poop of a raccoon (we call them raccoon droppings) These spores can be dried in the raccoon droppings, and blow with the wind when disturbed. It can got into your eye, or lungs, then incubate into a worm!
An Attic is the space under your roof. It usually has studs for me to walk on. And it has drywall attached to it with screws. The insulation is then spread all over the attic to hold in heat. Sometimes the attic is called a finished attic. That to me means that there is plywood over the studs for me to walk on. I like finished attics because its easy for me to move around and inspect.
Raccoons aren't the only ones who get into your attic. Animals like squirrels and bats also find your attic as suitable habitat to raise babies. I have even seen Grey Foxes get into attics. ( Yes, grey fox can climb!)
Even if you don't have an attic, the animals can get in the space below the roof and nest between the studs.
We service the following zip codes:

I'm old, I'm cranky and I like it!
This elderly gentleman may "brighten up" someone's Christmas this year, though it won't be because he's filled with goodwill toward men. He's a curmudgeon and he's hoping to find someone who will listen ad nauseum to his many complaints this holiday season. He'll be for sale on my website's "In-Stock" page. He's 42" tall, has moving mouth, raising eyebrows and self-centering side-to-side eyes.

A grinch in time for Christmas
I guess he's mad about seeing all the holiday decorations, ads, commercials and pop-ups so early in the year. Or maybe he's upset because I've only painted him with a primer coat so far. Or was it the election? Whatever it is, I don't see him changing his attitude any time soon.

Change of plans
This is the same "Alfie"...just dressed up for Halloween. Actually what happened was a client bought him from my "In-Stock" page on my website, but she had admired my "Norbert" nerd figure before he was sold. So she asked if I could re-costume Alfie to be a nerdy little fellow. I parted his hair in the middle, changed his clothes and added the bow tie and oversized nerd glasses. Now he's off to his new home in Nebraska.

Random Thought: Hospitals
And so the government has decided to act on the hospitals this time around.
What's the event?
On January 9, 2019 Minister of Commerce, Mr Sontirat Sontijirawong, is due to propose adding medical products, medical supplies, and medical services to the Department of Internal Trade's (DIT) list of products subject to price controls. In fact, many medical products are already on the DIT's price control list.
Why are they doing this?
I'm actually of the viewpoint that it is a positive, medical inflation is ridiculously high in Thailand, and most of the world for that matter, see the table below. Service quality is ok, doctors are ok though medicine pushers more than anything else, quality of the tools used are old 2nd tier charged at tier 1 prices (private hospitals) and the fact remains I still abhor the fact that so many doctors are this wealthy in Thailand and that my insurance costs continue to increase every few years. So I think its a positive for the general population that prices are capped to an extent.
Source: WTW
Does it matter to hospitals?
Yes, medical product revenues are estimated to be ~30% of total Healthcare revenue according to several analyst reports.
Has this happened before?
Half-half, there has been debate over the regulation of medical prices since 2015, and in May 2015 the public debate over whether private hospitals should be regulated more tightly led to drops for the 4 main hospital stocks (BH, BDMS, BCH, CHG) but as no decision was made they all recovered sharply,
Can the government institutions implement this?
Ah, I doubt it frankly, private hospitals officially are regulated by the Ministry of Public Health under the Health Facility Act. And therefore the Commerce Ministry does not appear to have any authority to regulate medical service charges or physician fees. And so how will this be 1) brought as a law 2) enforced 3) by which agency?
So what's the damage?
Only THB 60 bn in market cap lost in a few days.
So what? Should I buy it?!
I don't know you, nor what you want, so don't ask me these types of questions.

Can we just eat hummus for dinner and call it a day? Cool? Ok.
Because even though it might be Monday, I just have no desire to whip up something super fancy. This is definitely how I want my Monday to go down. A big bowl of hummus with some roasted squash, a big piece of fluffy pita, and maybe a glass of wine? Maybe two?
Hey, it is a Monday! And this definitely cancels out the donut I ate this weekend.

Hey all. I Have a Minipro TL866II+ and would like to program a PIC16F84 with using linux. The only software I found that seems to work with this combination is https://gitlab.com/DavidGriffith/minipro . I've checked that the hardware and software is working together, by writing binary data to a 24C32:
$ dd if=/dev/urandom of=foo.bin count=8 bs=512 && ./minipro -p 24C32 -w foo.bin && ./minipro -p 24C32 -r bar.bin && diff bar.bin foo.bin && echo $? 8+0 records in 8+0 records out 4096 bytes (4.1 kB, 4.0 KiB) copied, 0.000526638 s, 7.8 MB/s Found TL866II+ 04.2.103 (0x267) Warning: Firmware is newer than expected. Expected 04.2.99 (0x263) Found 04.2.103 (0x267) Erasing... 0.05Sec OK Writing Code... 1.99Sec OK Reading Code... 0.61Sec OK Verification OK Found TL866II+ 04.2.103 (0x267) Warning: Firmware is newer than expected. Expected 04.2.99 (0x263) Found 04.2.103 (0x267) Reading Code... 0.61Sec OK 0
--- Then I tried to read from a chip already programmed (and verified working) with MPLABX;
minipro -p PIC16F84 -r out.bin
But: code was all zeros, config was all zeros and when specifying retrieve data it just fails on "async data transfer." Browsing for clues, I found one place hinting that this chip needs to be programmed with ICSP. There's an ICSP connector on the programmer, but I'm not sure how this is supposed to work. With MPLABX I've used a PicKit3, and I tried to connect the board the PicKit ICSP plugs into and run with the ICSP option, but it doesn't make a difference.
minipro -p PIC16F84 -i -r out.bin
When writing to the PIC16F84, the progress indicator tells it's writing, but ultimately fails saying "Verification failed at address 0x0000: File=0x83, Device=0x00" --- Any hints would be welcome, either on how to make this setup work, or alternative setups that could work that are not the proprietary PIC stuff. Thanks.

my baby is 1year and 2months old how do I stop and till when can I breastfeed him
Created by Updated on Dec 06, 2016
ideally a baby can be breastfed as long as you can and minimum for 2 years. However if you wish to wean off, then keep the baby well fed through other milk and complementary solid feeds. You can also discourage the child by, using bitter edible things like neem/karela juice. It will take some before the baby is completely weaned off. Also ask any other family member/husband to put the baby to sleep.

ES struktūrinių fondų paramos poveikio ekonomikos konkurencingumui problematika
Remeikienė, Rita
Gasparenienė, Ligita
Grikštaitė, Ieva
MetadataShow full item record
Since increase of competitiveness is one of the basic aims of the EU structural policy, it is purposeful to research whether EU structural support is used efficiently and whether is actually leads to fulfillment of this aim. Although the impact of the EU structural support has been widely analysed in the studies performed by both Lithuanian and foreign authors, it should be noted that the aspect of competitiveness still lacks of scientific attention. Considering the start of third for Lithuania programming period of 2014-2020, evaluation of the impact of the structural support has become even more topical – for successful fulfillment of the new period aims, the analysis of the results achieved during the previous periods is advantageous. The above explicated reasons comprise the basis for formulation of the following scientific problem: what impact does EU structural suppor have on the competitiveness of Lithuanian and EU states economies? The object of the research – the impact of the EU structural support on the competitiveness of Lithuanian and EU states economies. The purpose of the research – after assessment of the importance of competitiveness in the EU cohesion policy, to evaluate the impact of the EU structural support on Lithuanian and EU states economies. The methods of the research include scientific literature analysis, statistical data analysis and assessment, expert evaluation. The results of the research have revealed that the benefits of the EU structural support are described by its positive impact on economic development, which emerges as increased investment in R&D and innovations, new products and production methods, improvement of 17 infrastructure and human resources, contributions to unemployment reduction and business development. Uneven income distribution that determines distortions of internal competition, private investment flush out and inflation pressure emerge as the negative effects of the EU structural support. The negative effects mentioned above are basically caused by inefficient allocation and absorption of the support funds.

Valuation Advisory
Valuation and consulting for financial reporting, federal, state and local tax, investment and risk management purposes.
On October 31, 2019 the IRS and Treasury made two key announcements regarding the Section 385 regulations which were first introduced in April of 2016.
The first announcement was that the removal of the documentation requirements set forth in the original Section 385 regulations for intercompany debt had been executed. The documentation requirements would have required taxpayers to provide documentation demonstrating a valid debtor-creditor relationship as well as a reasonable expectation of repayment during the life of the instrument for certain related party debt instruments where the U.S. entity was acting as the borrower.
The second announcement was to issue a notice of proposed rulemaking to modify the distribution regulations under Section 385. The distribution regulations released under the original Section 385 regulations generally would have treated certain issuances of debt between certain related parties as stock where that debt was issued in connection with a distribution. In the announcement, the IRS and Treasury recognized that the distribution regulations "continue to be necessary at this time", but that the rules will be modified in order to be "more streamlined and targeted". Specifically, the announcement states, "The Treasury Department and the IRS intend that the (forthcoming) proposed regulations would not treat a debt instrument as funding a distribution or economically similar transaction solely because of their temporal proximity; rather, the proposed regulations would apply the funding rule to a debt instrument only if its issuance has a sufficient factual connection to a distribution to a member of the taxpayer's expanded group or an economically similar transaction (for example, when the funding transaction and distribution or economically similar transaction are pursuant to an integrated plan)." The reference to "temporal proximity" relates to the original Section 385 regulations which contained a per se rule that would classify a debt instrument as stock where a distribution or similar exchange of property occurred 36 months before or after the debt issuance.
Both announcements come on the heels of the Trump Administration's Executive Order 13789 issued in April 2017 which instructed the Secretary of the Treasury to "review tax regulations issued on or after January 1, 2016, and to take concrete action to alleviate the burdens of regulations that

Don't Sell Your Coat: Surprising Truths About Climate Change by Harold Ambler
Don't Sell Your Coat is an interesting and clearly written book that presents climate history in a manner that is accessible to the non-climatologist. Each chapter of the book focuses on a different facet of climate science, including sunspots, trade-winds, ice caps, computer modeling, data collection, volcanic activity, media hysteria and political stakeholders. Harold Ambler uses logic, simple non-technical language and many examples to make his points. However, I do wish the author had noted his references within the text or linked the reference with the specific paragraph, rather than just list the references (per chapter) at the end of the book.
NOTE: I read the e-book format of this book and found the illustrations, graphs, and diagrams came out too small to read properly, with the accompanying subtext in an erratic formatting style. If you choose to read this book, I suggest getting hold of a paper copy.

Flores Island tour and travel is gaining fast acceptance as a "must-do" for those who love to see new places. Flores tourism is a growing industry and with good reason. Flores Island can boast of exquisite natural beauty and rare species of wildlife in both the plant and animal kingdoms. Flores tours and travel involves more than just traveling by flight from one place to another and shifting accommodation from one hotel to another.
A Flores overland tour is also another way of exploring this beautiful Island. In an overland tour of Flores Island, trucks cross the entire continent of Flores Island, from the small fishing village Labuan Bajo to tinny village of Moni. In Flores, overland tours the travelers carry their camping and cooking equipment with them in the truck. One overland tour of Flores Island can take between one to eight weeks to complete.
The main difference between an overland tour of Flores Island and a private Flores safari is the price.
A Flores overland tour offers the best value for money along with adventure and excitement. The nature of a Flores overland safari is such that it gives a deep understanding of the various culture and ways of the local people along with providing breath-taking sights. An overland safari gives the traveler the full feel of Flores Island as it really is. However, one has to have a desire for adventure and thrill to really be able to enjoy an overland safari, as there are fewer comforts of everyday life when compared to a private safari.
Flores Island tour and travel must be well planned in order to get the best results. Many tour and travel companies offer guided tours and safaris to help the traveler get a thrilling but organized view of the Flores Island. Enjoyment will easily come if the traveler does not have to constantly keep making decisions and worrying about where and how to go next. Information about the packages and services that reputed Flores tour and travel companies provide is easily available on their respective websites.

Single Origin Coffee From Guatemala
What can we say about our Guatemalan coffee? It's simply one of our favorites! This single origin Guatemala coffee is from the Cubulco region and has a nice crisp acidity with a smooth body. The coffee cherries were hand-picked and sun-dried, giving this coffee wonderful flavor overtones of oranges and roasted almond.
This coffee can be ordered in whole bean or ground to your choosing. If no roast level is selected, we will roast the coffee to a medium (we think it is wonderful at that roast level!). If you would like a lighter or darker roast, simply select the desired roast level when you order.
Java Jake's is a micro coffee roaster that believes in providing the best possible coffee for each individual consumer. Java Jake's doesn't roast one large batch so coffee just sits around waiting for you to buy it. We roast small batches as needed in order to make sure your coffee is fresh and delicious. Fresh coffee is the best coffee!
Do you like giving back to the community? Every quarter Java Jake's donates a portion of it's profits to charity. Do you work with a non-profit organization? If so, check our Coffee That Cares program. Help good organizations raise money by drinking great coffee!

World Gin Day
08 Jun
Gin-lovers across the world grab your tonic and lime because this Saturday we'll be celebrating World Gin Day. Returning for it's eighth year I decided to explore the botanicals of gin and leave my readers with a few cocktails in preparation for this weekend!
World Gin Day began in 2009 and was founded by Ginnoisseur Neil Houston. Intended simply as a day to for Neil to drink gin with friends the concept has now grown into a global festivity.
Thank goodness for the goodness in Gin!
The history of gin spans across hundred of years and dates back as far as the 17th century. Originally Gin was used as medicine to treat stomach ulcers, gout and gallstones.
A common question among avid gin and vodka drinkers is
'What's the difference between gin and vodka?'
Quite simply it is the botanical in the gin called Juniper. You may recognise that Juniper is a main ingredient in Gin, and whilst Juniper was also known to have medicinal purpose, it was added much later on to make it more palatable for the Dutch during the war.
A botanical is a 'substance obtained from a plant and used typically in medicinal or cosmetic purpose'. Proof that our Friday night G&T is for medicinal purposes!
Juniper is the backbone of all Gin and elicits flavours of pine, menthol, pepper and fruit. Here is a list of the other dominant botanicals found in gin.
Lavender – a flowering plant with an unmistakable palate of sweet floral notes. This is a botanical that has a strong presence within American Gins such as Deaths Door and Glorious Gin.
Cardamom – Ever tasted a hint of Ginger in your gin? That would be the cardamom which is a distant relative of the fragrant spice.
Coriander – Common in dry gins such as Gin Sea and Organic Transparens. Coriander offers aromatic tones of citrus, sage and ginger.
Anise Seed – A main botanical in our colour changing Imagic Gin. Here we have a Mediterranean spice which is likened to liquorice.
Dried Sweet Orange Peel – All but one dry gin made today contains a citrus element. The orange peel offers refreshing notes and a zingy structure.
Gin Cocktails
To celebrate World Gin Day in true style, Liquid Indulgence have teamed up with Twisted Mojito to create two fantastic gin cocktails.
Blueberry Gin Mojito
- Gin ~ handful of blueberries ~ mint ~ juice of half a lemon ~ teaspoon of sugar.
How to make:
- Muddle a small hand full of blueberries with mint, lemon juice and sugar
- Add 30ml of Molvino Tower Bridge London Style Gin
- Add ice to your liking
- Top up with either Fever Tree Tonic water or Ginger Ale.
- Stir well and garnish with a mint sprig, or a cocktail stick with blueberries.
A great twist on the classic rum mojito!
White Haven
- Gin ~ wedge of grapefruit ~ fresh tarragon ~ teaspoon of sugar.
How to make:
- Muddle a grapefruit wedge with fresh tarragon and sugar in a cocktail shaker.
- Add 30ml of Gin Sea London Style Gin and ice then shake vigorously.
- Dump the contents into a tumbler glass.
- Top up with Fever Tree Tonic Water.
Inspired by Rachel's travels to Australia, the perfect drink for lounging in the garden (or on a beach if you're lucky enough!)

Cap Savanna Rhum Vieux 7
Aged Rum
Cap Savanna // Réunion Island
Hailing from tiny Réunion Island, off the coast of Madagascar near southern Africa, the Cap Savanna Rhum isn't your traditional Caribbean rum. Made in the French style from sugarcane juice rather than molasses, it's aged for seven years in French oak barrels. Note: This is not currently available in the US.
age7 Year
Aged RumRum that is aged, but no specific type or size barrel required. No set time required for length of aging, but will often carry an age statement (which should be taken with a grain of salt). Often thought of as "sipping rums".
Cask TypeLimousin oak
Tasting Notes
"The nose is most unusual and enticing – stone fruit, leather, barbecue spices, and a touch of acetic acid. No need to rush to taste it, but when you do, the flavor explodes in your mouth--a quick burst of sweetness before the woody, French oak tannins take over for a very long finish. It's almost as if you were sipping a fine calvados rather than an aged rhum. A rare treat for rum connoisseurs. "
