Prevent Water Damage Cleanup Costs – Tips To Prevent Your Swimming Pool From Overflowing & Flooding Your Home
Owning a swimming pool can have both benefits and drawbacks. If you paid to have a pool installed, you know how costly installing a swimming pool can be. If you own a home with a pool then you are aware of the increase in monthly expenses associated with pool maintenance and the high electricity costs in running the pool equipment. There is also the added cost and increase in your water bill to both fill a swimming pool and to maintain its water level to prevent the pool filter motor from burning out. Installing solar panels is known to significantly lower pool utility costs and with options to either purchase or lease solar panels, installing solar panels is now an affordable option.
Many homeowners do not think about the possibility of a pool overflowing after a prolonged rainstorm or heavy downpour. However, the water level in your pool can quickly rise causing it to overflow and flood your backyard and your home. Installing drains around your pool deck and making sure the drains are clear of leaves and debris are key. It is good to put a plan in place to drain water from your pool before its water level reaches within a few inches of being level with the pool deck.
If you live in a hillside area or mountain community, flooding and mud slides are common occurrences and are even more likely to occur after wildfires. Check your property for any landscaping or sloped hillsides that may contribute to routing water towards your home. Installing an underground drainage system can help re-route water that accumulates after a rainstorm, if your pool overflows or if your yard is flooded.
The amount of rain water that sheets off of roof slopes in a heavy downpour or extended rainstorm is often more than you may realize. Installing rain gutters and downspouts combined with an underground drainage system can also help prevent water from pooling at the base of your home's foundation and seeping through the exterior walls to the interior of your home.
Placing sand bags to route water away from your home can save thousands of dollars in unnecessary water restoration and repair costs as water that does seep into your home can damage walls, insulation, flooring and your personal property. Local fire department stations often provide sandbags to residents to help prevent unwanted situations such as these that are common occurrences during the rainy season.
SOS Solutions provides free help 24/7 in calling and scheduling emergency restoration contractors that specialize in water, flood and mud clean-up as well as mold removal and fire damage restoration. Call SOS Solutions for your free help immediately after emergency damage happens.
For immediate assistance with water damage cleanup services, contact SOS Solutions at 1-888-589-1868. For more tips on protecting your property and your health and how to prevent mold growth, visit our website at www.TrustSOS.Solutions.

Danbury kickboxer wins world championship
This bout was personal.
Maceo had fought his opponent, Rami Ibrahim of Philadelphia, three years earlier. That contest resulted in a draw and a feud between the two fighters.
Maceo, of Danbury, is sensei at Tiger Schulmann Karate on Backus Avenue. April's fight was for the United States Kickboxing Association 's Muay Thai Super Lightweight world champion title.
In the early stages of the fight, things were not going Maceo's way. Ibrahim began attacking him with right and left roundhouse kicks. Maceo blocked these kicks with his shin as he is trained to do, but after the first round a cut opened up on his shin.
The cut hindered his ability to block and he had trouble putting weight on left leg.
At the end of the first round in the ring, a doctor recommended Maceo stop the fight because of the bleeding from his leg. But Maceo wasn't ready to give up.
"At that point, it's all about heart," Maceo said. "My legs were hurting pretty bad."
After the five-round bout he was declared the winner by unanimous decision.
Last year Maceo won the World Kickboxing Association championship. After that fight he considered retiring as a fighter. But three things brought him back into the ring. "No. 1, redemption," said Maceo. "To try and fix the draw."
No. 2 was the chance to win the United States Kickboxing Association world championship title. The third motivating factor "was a personal vendetta," noting he wanted to beat Ibrahim.
Maceo lives with his wife and 10-month-old son in Danbury. He began fighting 10 years ago.
A native of Long Island, Maceo first studied martial arts at a Tiger Schulman school in there, while in his early 20s. Within a year and a half he had his black belt and was teaching at the school.
Tiger Schulmann transferred him to Danbury when the head position opened in October 2003.
To train for the recent fight, Maceo stopped working at the school for about six weeks. In the morning he traveled to New Jersey to train with Tiger Schulman and the Tiger Schulman kickboxing team.
In the afternoon he would run a two-mile warmup, then do an hour of sprints. After running he would go to the karate school to work the punching bag and simulate the fight's five three-minute rounds.
Maceo's body was still recovering from the fight nearly a month later. His shin remained swollen and the cut was still open. "I can't put tremendous pressure on it. It's still very tender," said Maceo.
The motivation for training so hard and enduring such pain was certainly not money. Maceo said the money he receives from the fights is in the low thousands and not enough on which to make a living on.
So what motivates him to risk such a beating?
"I fight because God has given me a gift to do it," said Maceo, and "to accept challenges. Life is all about challenges. Competing is just one way I personally deal with it."
He also uses his experiences in the ring as a way to motivate his students. If he is going to teach them something, Maceo said, he has to first do it himself.
After one of Maceo's recent classes, Donna Coyle expressed awe for Maceo's ability. Her son Brian, 14, takes lessons at the school and recently received his second-degree black belt.
"His hands are so fast you can't even see them move," Coyle said of Maceo. "He's like lightning."

Nasopharyngeal Pleomorphic Adenoma: A Difficult Surgical Proposition MD01-MD02
Dr. Swati Nair,
504, A Block, Favourite elegance, Shampura Main Road, Kavalbyrasandra, Bengaluru-560032, Karnataka, India.
E-mail: firstname.lastname@example.com
Salivary gland tumours of the nasopharynx are rare and when present, tend to be malignant. Here, we report an unusual case of benign pleomorphic adenoma of the minor salivary gland arising from the nasopharynx in a 21-year-old female who presented with unilateral nasal obstruction. The radiological features of non-invasion of surrounding structures gave the first clue of benignity of the lesion as well as the location, size and anatomical relations of the tumour with the surrounding structures. This information was useful in planning the surgical approach and predicting the prognosis. Local and adequate excision appeared to be adequate.

West Coast Racers Update
The entire Cyclone Bay Area is now closed due to the upcoming 2019 attraction: West Coast Racers. The new area will be "LA Urban Centric" and offer new shops, restaurants, and dining areas.
Now that the year is coming to an end we should be seeing movement on the construction site very soon. All of the buildings and carnival games have been removed to make way for the first set of dual launches on the coaster.
Near the Cyclone 500 , landscaping has started and many trees have been removed. Bulldozers are on site to begin moving dirt and setting up the foundation for the new footer and supports that will tower over the race track.
It may not be the best shot from the inside of the West Coast Racers Preview center but this area is really starting to level out. We should see progress move rather quickly in the coming weeks.
Can't wait until 2019? Six Flags Magic Mountain now has a West Coast Racers preview center that is open to the public.
The star of the new center is a preview of the design for the new trains . It is not to scale and will serve as the front design of the trains. I love that West Coast Customs has a hand in the design of the exterior of trains, these are going to look awesome on the new coaster.
The racing theme is truly going to breathe life into this area. The entire layout is on display in the center and gives premise to what can be expected from the newly themed area.
Merchandise is also available for purchase themed to the new attraction. We are truly excited for this addition to the park and will be back regularly for more construction updates.
Thank You all for reading and be sure to check out some of our other reports and articles! A new Sea World Orlando update is now live, as well as a full Universal Orlando Resort report!

Social worker and activist Jolovan Wham is being investigated for "protesting" outside State Courts without a valid permit, police said on Saturday (Mar 2).
Wham had posted a photo on Dec 13 on his personal Instagram account, which showed him standing outside the court while holding up a piece of paper with the words: "Drop the charges against Terry Xu and Daniel De Costa."
Mr. Wham had only posed for a few seconds to take the photo. The incident happened the same day Terry Xu, the editor of socio-political website The Online Citizen, and Daniel De Costa were charged for publishing an article that alleged corruption among key figures in the Singapore Government.
Police said that Wham had written to the police earlier in November to apply for a permit to stage a protest outside the State Courts. His application was not approved. "The State Courts is gazetted as a Prohibited Area under the Public Order Act, with stricter security protocols," police said.
On Mar 1, Mr. Wham was called to the Cantonment Police Station and was interviewed for over an hour. His phone was also confiscated by the Police.
Mr. Wham also faces two other charges of organizing public assembly without a police permit and another two charges for not signing the police statements.

I am concerned that my 20 year old son, who is a sophomore in college, is having trouble making friends. He has roommates but doesn't really hang around with them. He tried a fraternity but it was too time consuming and his engineering major requires a pretty serious amount of studying. He is fairly shy and it takes awhile for people to get to know him. Any suggestions as to how he can connect with new people his age?

Moldova's exports contracted by 1% y/y to $266.6mn in November and detailed data show a certain recovery in exports to the CIS area, but it is not strong enough to offset the drop in exports to the European Union, which remains Moldova's main trade partner.
Moldova's exports increased by 32% y/y to $50mn to CIS countries in November, while exports to EU countries edged down by 2.6% y/y while remaining more than three times larger than those to the CIS at $180mn. Exports to other countries declined by 20% y/y to $37mn.
In the rolling 12 months ending November, Moldova's exports posted a modest 2.2% y/y advance to $2.78bn. Exports to EU declined by 3.4% y/y to $1.82bn while the exports to CIS increased by 3.1% y/y to $434mn.
Moldova's imports increased by only 1.8% y/y in the 12-month period, but they are still twice as large as exports: $5.82bn. This resulted in a trade gap of over $3bn, 0.8% more than in the previous 12 months.
Speaking of November alone, the imports increased by 3.5% y/y to $504mn and the trade deficit has widened by 6.4% y/y to $238mn.

Gov. Brown Signs Legislation to Modernize California's Online Campaign Database
SB 1349 overhauls Cal-Access to make campaign and lobbying disclosures quick and easy to find online
SACRAMENTO – Gov. Jerry Brown today signed legislation by Sen. Bob Hertzberg, D-Van Nuys, to modernize California's online database of campaign and lobbying information.
SB 1349 directs the state to overhaul the Secretary of State's antiquated Cal-Access system for filing and accessing campaign finance and lobbying data. It establishes important guidelines for the project, including creating a system that is data driven, rather than form based, and adhering to prevailing standards for search and open data.
The bill is supported by a broad coalition that includes California Common Cause, the California Business Roundtable, the League of Women Voters of California, the California Labor Federation and Secretary of State Alex Padilla.
"This legislation helps put California's government where it should be – at the forefront of using technology to provide transparency," Hertzberg said. "SB 1349 modernizes California's database so campaign and lobbying disclosures are quick and easy for everyone to access immediately."
The legislation prescribes using cost-effective, streamlined and innovative information technology development processes to deliver an improved system faster. It calls for a system that permits future compatibility with local campaign finance data.
The bill is also backed by Jim Heerwagen, the main proponent of the Voters' Right to Know Act, an initiative circulated earlier this year that sought to replace the current Cal-Access system as part of a package of reforms. Heerwagen announced in March that he would suspend signature gathering for the initiative and instead support SB 1349.
Under SB 1349, the new system would allow aggregating contributions from the same contributor through use of a unique ID system for donors, thereby providing the public with a fuller understanding of influence in state politics. The legislation recommends incorporating user-friendly features for filers, such as pre-populating data and electronic signature capability.
The bill does not include funding for the project. Rather, Hertzberg sought funding through the budget process. The 2015-16 state budget includes $1.8 million for the Secretary of State's office to work on overhauling Cal-Access.
"A system built in the era of pagers is overdue for a rebuild," Padilla said. "Replacing Cal-Access will improve campaign finance transparency and help voters make informed choices at the ballot box. Thank you Senator Hertzberg for championing this effort all the way to the finish line, and thank you Governor Brown for signing this important legislation."
Kathay Feng, the executive director of California Common Cause, said the bill is a giant step forward.
"Governor Brown's signature on SB 1349 will fast forward California into the 21st century, where voters and campaigns can finally access campaign finance information in a quick and easy way," Feng said.
Helen Hutchison, president of the League of Women Voters of California, said SB 1349 would be a big help for voters.
"This bill is the first step to providing Californians with a user-friendly and modern system, making searches of campaign and lobbyist spending far more transparent," Hutchison said. "The public has a right to know who is using money to influence our government, and SB 1349 will make that information accessible to all."
Robert Lapsley, president of the California Business Roundtable, also praised the governor's action.
"Thanks to the leadership of Governor Brown, Secretary of State Alex Padilla and Senator Bob Hertzberg, SB 1349 will make the state a national leader in public transparency on lobbying data and campaign contributions to elected officials," Lapsley said.
SB 1349 was endorsed by several newspapers. In June, the Los Angeles Times urged legislators to pass the bill and the governor to sign it "so that voters don't have to wait until another presidential primary for a campaign finance database that has all the things they need to assess candidates and ballot measures in the era of big money."

Despite mixed reviews, Transformers was a box office success and one of the highest-grossing films of 2007.
His other films include Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps (2010), Lawless (2012), The Company You Keep (2012), Nymphomaniac (2013) and Fury (2014).
But, yeah, you could say that he definitely took it seriously.
And, this time, Maddie, you need to go him." There were so many different things to play off of. It was definitely a big stretch, but I had so much fun with it.
He made his film debut in The Christmas Path (1998).
In 2004, he made his directorial debut with the short film Let's Love Hate and later directed a short film titled Maniac (2011), starring American rappers Cage and Kid Cudi.

Mangaluru, May 29, 2015 : A man from Uttar Pradesh who worked as a sub-contractor for the Bharati Shipyard reportedly ended his life by hanging himself at his room at Tannirbavi.
The deceased has been identified as Vijayanarayan Vishwakarma (30). It has been gathered that non-payment of nearly Rs 10 lakh due to him by the company forced him to take the extreme step.
Sources said the company had not responded to his several pleas to clear his arrears.
Vishwakarma has also left a death note in which he had stated that he had borrowed money from many to execute the works and now the failure of the company to clear his arrears made it difficult for him to return to his hometown without clearing the same.
Vishwakarma is also learnt to have sent as SMS to the company manager stating to return the amount owed to him to his father who could in turn make payment to the people from whom he had borrowed.
Panambur police have now registered a case against Valerian Sequeira of Bharathi Shipyard.
The funeral of Vishwakarma was held with help from the cops as his family was at a loss unable to arrange funds for the same.

Sarah Vowell (author and voice actor of Violet from The Incredibles) appears at Tilson Auditorium of Indiana State University on February 8, 2016 at 7:00 PM. This event is free and open to the public.
Vowell is the New York Times' bestselling author of six nonfiction books on American history and culture. Her seventh, "Lafayette in the Somewhat United States" will be released in October of 2015. By examining the connections between the American past and present, she offers personal and often humorous accounts of everything from presidents and their assassins to colonial religious fanatics, as well as thoughts on American Indians, utopian dreamers, pop music and the odd cranky cartographer. Her most recent book, "Unfamiliar Fishes" (2011), is the intriguing history of the nation's 50th state, Hawaii, annexed in 1898. Replete with a cast of beguiling and often tragic characters, including an overthrown Hawaiian queen, whalers, missionaries, sugar barons, Teddy Roosevelt and assorted con men, "Unfamiliar Fishes" is another history lesson in Americana as only Vowell can tell it – with brainy wit and droll humor. Vowell was a contributing editor for the public radio show "This American Life" from 1996-2008, where she produced numerous commentaries and documentaries and toured the country in many of the program's live shows. She has been a columnist for Salon.com, Time and San Francisco Weekly and continues to write occasional essays for the opinion page of the New York Times.

Once in a while we will have to dish out cash to cater for a certain need. This is by buying food, paying the hospital bills, paying for transport or even buying a car. Even if we are all employed, at the end of the month the salaries that are given to us vary greatly. Many people however, do not have this understanding. It is not funny to see a person who asks for items without caring about the cost. If it is an investment, they will go ahead and start it without seeking advice. Eventually, most of the investors end up questioning their actions and are in deep pain. There are financial experts that have taken up the challenge of highlighting about the financial aspects and how people should use their money, and these include people like Chris Brummer at https://chrisbrummer.org. Additionally, there are certain agencies that have come up with the role of offering advice and information that pertains financial regulation and security. This is beneficial to many especially those in the business world. When you want to choose an agency to offer this kind of advice, there are several factors that you need to look at as outlined in the article.
Cost is the number one consideration to make. Always bear in mind that the service is not being given to you for free. For some, it may not be a necessity as such. All agencies that you will consult will have a set budget and a certain charge that they will ask for. Make a comparison on the available offers made by the various financial agencies so as to settle on the most convenient offer.
The reviews that people are making concerning a particular agency is something to look out for. Do not shy off from this because reviews are always available online and also from friends that have consulted the agencies. Listening to financial experts and scholars such as Chris brummer at https://chrisbrummer.com will also shed light on the agency to choose.
Also make sure that you are aware of the number of years that the agency has been in the market. Most people can offer to give the financial advice but they are not in any way specialized in it. All people that have been trained are reliable and are less likely to mislead. Do not work with people that show no willingness to help because you will be frustrated. In that regard, make sure that you choose an agency that is always reachable. To know more about finance, visit this website at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Financial_management.

It was one of a many 'honourees' that Savile would be awarded in the years that followed. Savile said:Coming from Lord Louis, who was the favourite uncle of Prince Philip, that was quite something.

Mountbatten was killed when a bomb exploded on his boat in Ireland in 1979 – a murder officially blamed on the Provisional IRA. New Zealand writer and researcher Greg Hallett writes in his book, Hitler was a British Agent:Lord Louis Mountbatten was a pedophile, adulterer and homosexual incestuous lover for 10 years … the former King Edward VIII … was truly troubled by the revelations he too had betrayed the Canadians to the German Army, resulting in the open slaughter of those 4,000 men …… the British monarchy arranged for MI-5 to blow up his boat (1979), happily covering their trail; by fitting up four IRA men … the tactic of blowing up one of your own leaders to cover up any incriminating evidence … was a face saving device to distract from even more damaging intelligence about the British monarchy working for the Germans, against peace, and for a prolonged war.

Sign unframed measures approximately 16" x 34"
framed measures 17 1/2" x 35 1/2"
Products are made to order and ship within 1-2 weeks of purchase date.
Every whitewashed sign is handmade and hand engraved with the wood burning process. Each sign comes ready to hang.
Just like us, every wood piece is unique. Your piece may or may not be the same color of wood as shown in the pictures. All cracks and knots in the wood are part of the character of the piece so no two signs will be alike

Article Title
The special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants and Children (WIC) is one of USDA's major food assistance programs. WIC is authorized under the Healthy, Hunger-Free Kids Act of 2010. Major changes in the supplemental food packages were introduced in 2009 based on recommendations of a committee of the National Academies' Institute of Medicine (IOM). One of the innovative program changes implemented at that time was the introduction of a cash value voucher (CVV) to supplement the purchase of fruit and vegetables for qualifying participants.

Silverstein Ligatures Review
We are proud to stock Silverstein ligatures and would encourage you to try them out in our showroom. They are based on the tradition of string ligatures, where as much vibration as possible is met, due to the reed being left very free. Believe it or not, but this can seriously differ your sound- probably much more than you think. They make a huge difference to the response of the reed and the openness of sound; So the potential for freedom of the cane is greatly improved.
The string is actually made from aerospace graded chord technology: - take that for an upgrade!
The additional feature of a screw fixing at the back adds or removes darkness of tone, and fine tuners are also on the edge of the ligature to help shape the sound and colour even more.
The interspersed aero chord is a unique way of dispersing vibration, which can be controlled and altered in many ways to suit you.
We have tested the CRY04 ligature, where it is easily taken on and off of the mouthpiece, and the fine tuners alone hold the reed in place very securely - allowing greater flexibility in tightening or loosening the back screw. This creates a spread sound which can be made darker if the player wants to leave the back screw loose, much more so than other ligatures. You may be able to achieve a particular sound with another maker's ligature setup such as the Rovner Versa X but we don't feel it offers the same breadth of flexibility in tone as this new design.

Malloy visits Shelton's Indian Well State Park: 'This is a pretty spot'
Gov. Dannel P. Malloy visited Indian Well State Park in Shelton on Wednesday afternoon as part of a tour to promote Connecticut's state parks in advance of the four-day holiday weekend.
"We have 107 state parks and 32 state forests and the system has been in existence for 100 years," Malloy said while in Shelton. "It's a great, inexpensive way for people to enjoy Connecticut."
Tim DeScheen of Ansonia was among those visiting Indian Well with his family and friends a day before the Fourth of July, beating the holiday crowds.
"We just had to get out today," DeScheen said in reference to the hot and humid weather. "We like the water here — swimming is the best part of coming here."
Park supervisor Joe Maler said he expects a large crowd at Indian Well on July Fourth, with gates likely having to be closed when the parking lot becomes full sometime between the late morning and early afternoon.
"We reach capacity on every Fourth of July, depending on the forecast." Maler said.
Tom Tyler, director of state parks, said this year's predicted warm weather will bring lots of visitors over the coming days. "It will stay hot and dry for most of the weekend, which is the recipe for big crowds," Tyler said.
Malloy agreed with those predictions. "This park will be packed over the weekend," he said.
Indian Well offers range of activities
The 200-acre park off Route 110 and along the Housatonic River has a beach, recreational fields, hiking trails, a waterfall, and parking for about 500 vehicles. In addition to sitting on the beach, visitors often play soccer and volleyball. The popular horseshoes pits will be rebuilt in the future, Maler said.
"This is a pretty spot. It's gorgeous," said Malloy, standing on the beach and looking out at the Housatonic River.
Malloy said the state's parks are a good deal for visitors. "The cheapest club membership you can get in Connecticut," he said.
Daily admission to Indian Well costs $9 for an in-state vehicle and $15 for an out-of-state vehicle. A season pass for the state parks can be bought for $67.
Tyler said 22 of the state parks charge a parking fee, like Indian Well, while the rest offer free admission. Anyone can walk or bicycle into all state parks at no charge.
Park memories
Malloy said he remembers visiting Indian Well State Park once as a child. Having grown up in Stamford, where he later was mayor, Malloy said his family usually frequented Sherwood Island State Park in Westport.
"Someone would have to show up early and wait in line [at Sherwood Island] to claim a table because there would be 60 to 70 of us," he said of the Malloy family gatherings.
State Rep. Larry Miller of Stratford, whose district includes part of Shelton, said he also would visit Indian Well State Park when growing up. Miller was raised in Bridgeport, and also often went to Beardsley Park and Seaside Park in that city while young.
"On a lovely weekend like we have coming up, this place will be jammed," Miller said of Indian Well State Park. "People will come from out-of-town and even from out-of-state."
Upgrading the parks
Malloy said state parks and forests offer swimming, hiking, fishing, boating and other outdoor activities.
Millions of dollars are being spent upgrading the parks, he said, with some renovation work required after recent storms such as Irene and Sandy. "We've had a couple of tough years, weather wise," the governor said.
Malloy said he generally favors putting funds toward improvements at existing parks rather than trying to create new parks.
"I wouldn't miss an opportunity to add land for park and conservation purposes, but we also need to take better care of our parks," he said. "We need to invest in our parks."
Flooding at Indian Well
Flooding has been an issue at Indian Well and the nearby Maples riverfront residential area of Shelton. At the state park, the overflowing water can cause fence posts to come out of the ground, according to Maler.
"It's a little bit of a nightmare," Maler said of the need to repair damaged fencing.
Malloy noted that the Housatonic is a major river. "It stretches from Massachusetts to Long Island Sound. We have some control points with dams, but Mother Nature is pretty tough," he said, pointing to the two recent tornadoes in Connecticut as examples.
As a park supervisor, Maler oversees three state parks in the region — Indian Well in Shelton, Osbornedale in Derby, and Silver Sands in Milford.
Visited three state parks
On Wednesday, Malloy also visited Hammonaseet Beach State Park in Madison and Black Rock State Park in Thomaston. He was joined by Daniel C. Esty, commissioner of the state Department of Energy and Environmental Protection, the agency that oversees the state parks and forests, and other officials.
The entourage of state officials managed to squeeze in some local summer cuisine during their park promotion tour — grabbing a lobster roll while on the coast, Malloy said.
The governor will spend his long holiday weekend going to parades, cookouts and just spending time with his wife and children, he said.

Bolivian Church finds unexpected ally
BOGATA (SE): The Church in Bolivia has found an unexpected ally in its opposition to a proposal that would legalise abortion for poor families in the feminist movement, which sees the legislation as a threat to the autonomy of women living in poverty.
The Bolivian bishops say that the legislation shows the influence of "a foreign ideological colonisation that discards boys and girls born in fragile situations and accepts the sad violence of abortion as a way of providing solutions to social and economic problems."
Mexican bishop meets with gang leaders
MEXICO CITY (SE): A Mexican bishop met with gang leaders in a bid to save his priests from violence directed at the clergy.
Bishop Salvador Rangel Mendoza, from the troubled Guerrero state, arranged the meeting through intermediates after he heard that some of his priests had been subject to death threats. He said he told them that if there is a death nothing could be settled.
Bishop Rangel said that almost all of Guerrero is in the hands of drug traffickers.
Royal visit to the pope
VATICAN (SE): Pope Francis met with the heir to the British throne, the Prince of Wales, and his wife, the Duchess of Cornwall, on April 4.
The pope presented the royal couple with a bronze representation of an olive branch and in return, they presented a hamper of food produced on their own lands to be distributed among the poor and homeless in Rome.
During their 30-minute conversation conducted in Spanish they discussed a number of topics connected with the environment, which was the central theme of the meeting.
Together with the British foreign minister, Alan Duncan, the royal couple continued the discussion with the Vatican secretary of state, Pietro Cardinal Parolin, before visiting the Vatican Library and looking at some historical documents.
Plot to shoot the pope
PHILADELPHIA (SE): Santos Colon pleaded guilty to a charge of conspiring to kill Pope Francis during his visit to the World Meeting of Families in Philadelphia, the United States of America, in 2015.
The teenager confessed that he made a plan to hire a sniper to shoot the pope, but he turned out to be an undercover agent and arrested Colon instead. He could get 15 years in prison.
No motive for the assassination plan was given.
Twelve years since Pope John Paul II died
VATICAN (SE): The 12th anniversary of the death of Pope John Paul II was marked at the Vatican with a Mass celebrated by the Polish Stanislaw Cardinal Rylko, the archpriest of the basilica of St. Mary Major, on April 2.
Archbishop Konrad Krajewski, who was once master of ceremonies for Pope John Paul and later papal almoner—a post he still holds—concelebrated at the Mass.
In Poland, the anniversary was recognised with a variety of events and concerts across the country.
Juncker accused of being drunk meeting pope
VATICAN (SE): Krystyna Pawlowicz, a member of the Polish parliament, claims that Jean-Claude Juncker, the president of the European Commission, was drunk when he met with Pope Francis in mid-March.
She wrote to Juncker telling him that his alcohol dependency poses a danger to the European Union. She said he looked drunk when the pope greeted European leaders.
"Your demeanour was offensive not only to Pope Francis, but also the present chiefs of states and heads of governments, including women, who were certainly too polite to ask you to take a rest," she said.
Mass for recovery of bodies from the Sewol
SEOUL (UCAN): A Mass was held on board the salvaged hulk of the Sewol on March 28 to pray that more bodies from the ferry that sank off the South Korean coast in 2014 will be found.
Father Simon Min Se-young said, "The ship was heavily damaged and it does not seem to be easy to recover the bodies of missing victims."
A series of ceremonies was organised by Buddhists, Won Buddhists and Protestants.
Suwon Diocese will hold a commemoration Mass on April 7 at Ansan's Hwarang Resort.
Vatican welcomes three refugee families
VATICAN (SE): The Vatican welcomed three new families of refugees from Syria at the beginning of April.
The three families will live temporarily in Vatican-owned apartments in Rome, which have previously been occupied by other refugees that have now found more permanent homes. Two of the families are Christian, who fled the prospect of religious persecution in their homeland; the third family is Muslim.

I am excited to announce the 3rd annual graphic facilitation workshop (aka Rosviz!) in beautiful Rossland, BC, Canada, July 18-20th, 2012.
You are invited to this experiential workshop which takes place almost entirely at the drawing surface!
We'll start the evening of July18th by warming up our drawing muscles and silencing those pesky inner censors. The second day, we'll build into the basic practices of graphic facilitation and recording. We will pay attention to preparation, the actual visual work, and follow up including digital capture of paper based images. Our third day will be devoted to participatory graphic approaches, practicing and giving peer feedback. You can expect to go away with icons, ideas and approaches which you can use immediately, as well as ideas about how to hone your practice.
When might we use this practice?
Sometimes our imaginations are sparked by a visual where words fail us. Think about when communities plan and imagine their futures, when teams consider the possible outcomes for their projects, when groups create maps to track their progress. These are all opportunities to use visuals to engage and deepen community dialogue. You can use visual thinking to improve teamwork, communications, meetings, build engagement and to plan work. Step out of the PowerPoint rut!
Who should attend?
Facilitators, project managers, team leaders and members, town planners, teachers and anyone who would like to engage others beyond words.
Please note: You do NOT need previous experience or have to consider yourself an artist. At some level, we can all draw and use visuals to enhance our communications and engage diverse audiences.
Quick details: I will be hosting and co-facilitating with my very energetic and inspiring collaborator Nancy White. This 2.5 day workshop begins the evening of Wednesday, July 18th and ends mid-afternoon on Friday, July 20th. Early bird pricing before April 1st is $690.00 and is $840.00 thereafter.

Temporary ban halts plans to demolish 18th century Huguenot house
PUBLISHED: 14:00 29 May 2019
Mike Brooke
Council chiefs have halted plans to demolish a historic 18th century building in Bethnal Green to allow a review into whether it should be listed.
TV historian Dan Cruikshank is spearheading a campaign to save the Huguenot silkworker's house from the bulldozer to make way for new homes.
Following confirmation from the Department for Culture's Historic England that it was considering listing the house Tower Hamlets Council announced today it has issued a six-month long Building Preservation Notice while the review is taking place.
Dan, a veteran East End celebrity preservation campaigner, is behind a move by the Huguenots of Spitalfields heritage group to save the three-storey property in Club Row near Shoreditch.
You may also want to watch:
He said: "Houses like this are now rare."
Developers have applied to the council to demolish the 260-year-old property and replace it with modern flats.
A council spokesman added: "The final decision on whether the building should be listed will be taken by the Secretary of State for Media Culture and Sport.
"This means that that for the duration of the notice the building must be considered as if it was listed with any proposed alterations, or demolitions needing full listed building consent.
"The council will not make any decision on the current planning application until the outcome of the listing review is known."

To stay up to date with the latest information in the beekeeping industry to can check out our apiculture latest news. On the other hand in case you are beginning apiculture and desire to start professional apiculture now download a copy of our beekeeping for beginners ebook.
Beekeeping, like every other activity, has its own dos and don'ts. Start beekeeping generally involves purchasing bees and the gear that is needed. However, some individuals who are beginning this hobby normally make a few mistakes. It is acceptable to make mistakes, and this article can help new beekeepers avoid making the same mistakes others have previously.
Here are three mistakes which every beekeeper should prevent:
1. Not knowing the best time to start a beekeeping company or hobby can prove to be a catastrophe. It may lead to some loss of your bees and money. Winter is the worst possible time to begin, since most bees perish during the wintertime. This would force a beekeeper to purchase a brand new mountain of bees, which would cost more money. Autumn is another poor time since there are fewer blooms, thus a smaller amount of honey picked, to begin beekeeping. The best time to start beekeeping is during summer, which is the time of the year where there are plenty of blooms that are blooming.
2. Buying used equipment and old books on beekeeping. This really is a standard error made by many start beekeepers. Buying used equipment and old beekeeping publications is not a great idea, although it's understandable that one would need to save money as much as possible. First, used equipment can come with "familial" issues. The extractor outlet might have a leak, or the uncapping knife might not be sharp enough to uncap all the wax. This would certainly impact the quality of one's honey, which will ben't an ideal situation particularly if a beekeeper is planning to commence a honey-selling business. Second, old novels can provide dated info on beekeeping. One might be stuck using the traditional method when there are more rapid and better methods to keep beehives and fabrication honey.
3. Refraining from buying protective equipment. Think about this. If one doesn't wear protective equipment when managing the hives and collecting the honeycombs, he/she will most likely come out as a pincushion with all the bee stingers stuck to their body. Protective gear is pricey, yes, but it will help beekeepers prevent spending medical bills.
These three mistakes are presented here to help they are avoided by future beekeepers. It's a good idea to consult a professional beekeeper, before getting started beekeeping. If buying a certain item appears overly pricey, constantly think about the end cost ( in case that they don't buy this thing now, will it cost them more later on?). In the end, it's up to the individual to determine the best course of action.

That was recommended to me a few years ago & I bought a copy....As I Lay Dying by William Faulkner
I should have worded this better, since Jewish readers may regard the Hebrew Scriptures (what Christians call the Old Testament) as the Bible. That was thoughtless of me -- sorry.I'm going to ask, to start with, that Bible readers include only the entire Bible (whether the number of books is a Protestant, Roman Catholic, or Eastern Orthodox count). This means even that, if you are sure you've read the whole New Testament many times, you won't post that. Okay?

Written for Kurrent Music
Published August 22nd 2017
Not many musicians actually retire. Most can't stop what they've been doing their entire life. When you've never really been in one place for long, it's hard to settle down and just do nothing or so it seems. So, most just keep touring until they literally can't tour no more.
Every once in a while you might even forget that one of those living legends is actually still among the living, so hoaxes about celebrity deaths seem logical, sometimes. But there's no better comeback from these hoaxes than the one that Willie Nelson once did.
There have been many death rumors that he has survived. The latest one is very recent. Just at the beginning of this month, the Internet was taken over by rumors, again. So, he's all prepared by now and can just press play on his response in music.

Russian counter-insurgency
I found an interesting document from the rand think tank concerning Russia. Interesting strategic reading on counter-insurgency warfare by nations other than the US.
The lack of an urban training focus was not a mistake. Rather, it reflected
another conclusion military leaders had drawn from the first
war in Chechnya. The blood their troops had shed in Grozny convinced
Russian planners that the best approach to urban combat was
to avoid it altogether. Soldiers and officers should prepare to prevent
an urban fight, not to win it. Therefore, training for urban combat
was deemed a waste of time and money.
The Russians did it that way. American Marines did it the other way. Which do you think came out the better for it?
According to Russian sources, the Chechen resistance was no less
prepared in 1999 than it had been in 1994. According to one Russian
report, Chechen leaders established a network of training centers
employing some 100 foreign instructors as well as experienced
Chechen fighters. One such camp was run by Khattab, an Islamic
revolutionary originally from Saudi Arabia or Jordan (sources differ)
who had emerged as a key Chechen commander in the first war.
Well, learning from the Russians isn't just about copying their techniques or avoiding their failures. It is more like, understanding why the Russians failed and therefore understanding how we can succede.
The Russian press reported that Usama Bin Laden supported the
Chechen rebels by sending mercenaries from Afghanistan, Yemen,
and elsewhere to fight in Chechnya.18 Pakistani groups, including
Hizb-ul'-Mujeheddin and Kharakat-ul'-Mujeheddin, Al' Badr,
Lashkar-e-Taiba, and Sepakhe Sakhaba Pakistan, the International
Islamic Front, and Usama Bin Laden's Al' Qaida also reportedly
trained and provided soldiers.19 According to press reports, the
Taliban in Afghanistan also sent men to fight alongside theC hechens. It is even possible that Iraq sent specialists to help
prepare defenses and build fortifications in Karabahi-Chabanmahi
(in the Buynaksk region of Dagestan).21
Isn't that interesting.
tance.24 At the time, a number of Russian and Western specialists
suggested that this approach, particularly the aerial attacks, emulated
NATO air operations over Serbia and Kosovo during Operation
Allied Force in 1999.25 Although several Russian military officers
made this argument, it is an unlikely explanation for Russian tactics.
True, the two actions shared a belief that air operations could coerce
enemy submission and limit the need for ground action. However,
this belief was not original to either NATO or the 1990s.26 In fact,
Russian artillery bombardments of Grozny looked far more like the
use of artillery in Russia's World War II campaigns than like a NATO
air war. It is therefore more plausible that the Russians were not
modeling their operations on NATO's, but rather employing an
approach from their own history.27
I don't have the time to read it all, but you might.

I much prefer gameplay videos (I suppose that can be a form of review but still). I consider reviews to be a personal thing, and as such, are opinionated and personal. Who's to say Mr Reviewer will love the game whilst I may hate it? Naturally, I don't tend to read them or take notice. What about you? Do you take notice or do you do your own thing?

…or Graham Specter. The second episode of DRRR was much better. More interesting main story, and more interesting methods of introducing characters.

This past weekend, P was extremely challenging. I had no idea what was up his rear end, but both days I ended up getting off to lunge him to see if anything was wrong. Saturday I quit after about 20 minutes on my ticking time bomb, but Sunday when he was the same way…he just had to deal for an hour so I could get some practice in. Was it fun? No. We jumped (i.e. flung ourselves over) some little stuff, and did spiral in/out and leg yields at the trot because he was so tense in the walk and he'd give half a circle of canter before side bolting into the oblivion. I was so disappointed because I'd sent BO a fun exercise that she had set up and I was excited to try it out.
Both days when I went out to the pasture to get him, he stayed where he was and just didn't look thrilled to see me. He's never run away or been hard to catch, but usually he comes to the gate or at least meets me halfway. Both Saturday and Sunday, he just stood there and watched me approach with judgy eyes.
So yesterday came rolling along and I headed out to the barn after work. Pulled up the driveway, next to his pasture, and look who came up to say hi:
When I continued on to the barn, I saw movement in my rearview mirror:
And then I went in the barn to change and all that, then headed to his pasture:
And even though he looked like this…
Wouldn't ya know? We had a great ride. Walk? Sure. Trot? Stretchy and working: check. Canter? Here's some super calm transitions. Jump the course? K. Put the jumps up to 2'6″and go around again? Thumbs up. Get off again, raise two to 2'9″ and canter around it again? No worries.
I was definitely stewing on the way to the barn yesterday. At the old H/J barn, he was ALWAYS spooky/tense/obnoxious/frustrating, so I was afraid that maybe the magic was wearing off the new place and he would just forever be a nightmare at home. But after talking to BO, turns out people were shooting ALL WEEKEND in the land adjacent to the farm.
I think I just need to do a better job of listening.
