Free-market capitalism unleashes awesome forces. The quest for ever greater profits stimulates innovation in products and production processes, yielding a wider range of cheaper and more effective products in which consumers can indulge — and sometimes over-indulge. That is a blessing in the case of 99 percent of products, but not all of them. We do not allow corporations to sell human organs, sexual favors, or performance-enhancing steroids for non-medical use, and some harbor misgivings about for-profit prisons and universities.
With little consideration of alternatives, the country is deciding whether to create a for-profit industry for marijuana and other cannabis products. I think we should not.
The usual debate concerns whether to legalize marijuana. That framing distorts, because legalization is not a binary choice; there are many ways to legalize, with sharply varying pros and cons. In addition to legalizing use — which is what most polls ask about — there are many options on how to legalize supply. At the cautious end is just letting individuals grow a little for themselves at home, as in Vermont and Washington, D.C. At the far end is legalizing commercial production by for-profit industry. Colorado and Washington State pioneered that riskier approach, which Oregon and California have emulated.
There are many intermediate options, including restricting production to nonprofit organizations. Right now, the Trump administration could steer the country toward those better options at modest cost, but that window of opportunity will soon close forever. Once established, a for-profit industry would be next to impossible to unwind.
No modern nation has ever allowed large-scale commercial production for non-medical use — although Canada is expected to do so on July 1. The Netherlands allows only retail sale, not production or wholesale trade. Uruguay has taken a different but similarly cautious approach. Elsewhere, cannabis reform is restricted to granting rights to individuals, not corporations.
Legalizing a for-profit industry is an irreversible leap into the unknown. Prudence suggests first taking smaller steps. The horse is not yet out of the barn because the rapidly growing, state-licensed marijuana businesses are still 100 percent illegal under federal law. The federal government could shut them down in a heartbeat. The 1980s and 1990s showed law enforcement's limitations in the face of illegal drug markets, but that does not extend to state-licensed businesses. It is easy to enforce laws against licensed companies that operate out of brick-and-mortar buildings at fixed addresses that they report to regulators. The Justice Department can simply send a letter warning that if the company does not shut down within a reasonable time, its owners will be arrested and its assets seized. There is no reason to actually put anyone in prison — except those who don't take the hint and persist beyond the specified grace period. This would not require an act of Congress. The Obama administration opened the era of commercial cannabis production when its Justice Department issued a memo (the "Cole memo") promising non-interference with businesses that are legal at the state level and meet certain minimal requirements. The Trump administration could phase out those for-profit businesses in favor of nonprofit organizations by issuing a new memo. Solidifying the policy with changes in federal law would be good but can come later. Shutting down state-licensed businesses could feed the black market, but not if nonprofit organizations are allowed to take their place.
Below, I describe two versions of this idea. The first would preserve existing state rules and regulations and would add one: All licensed cannabis enterprises must be nonprofit organizations with boards constituted to protect public health and with charters that define their mission as meeting existing demand (to undercut the black market) but not promoting greater consumption. The second would restrict production to co-ops that supply only their own members.
Before getting to the details, it is worth explaining why cannabis merits this cautious approach, as opposed to being treated as a regular article of commerce, albeit one subject to special taxes and regulations, the way we treat alcohol, tobacco, gasoline, tanning beds, and rental cars.
Cannabis is a dependence-inducing intoxicant, but a relatively safe one. Overdoses — particularly from edibles — prompt many thousands of people to seek care in emergency rooms every year, but overdose deaths are all but impossible. Even long-term use doesn't cause much organ damage. Yes, cannabis smoke contains carcinogens, but not enough to make excess cancers visible in epidemiological studies. Cannabis intoxication impairs reaction time, memory, and one's ability to perform tasks that require attention, but it does not produce reckless or aggressive behavior the way alcohol does.
Adults' using a few times a week when not at work, school, or minding children is pretty harmless, and that describes almost half of cannabis users. Alas, it describes only a tiny share of cannabis use, because the smaller number of daily or dependent users consume so much more per person.
We may ask: "What proportion of cannabis consumption is accounted for by adults with no history of substance-use disorder and who use fewer than ten times a month?" (The last clause proxies "use only on weekends"; the data do not record day of week.) Anyone can work out the answer with public data from the National Survey on Drug Use and Health, plus the rule of thumb that daily users consume about three times as many grams per day of use as do occasional users.
The answer?
Such moderate, adult use is engaged in by about one in three cannabis users, but accounts for only 2 percent of consumption and so a trifling share of sales and profits. Likewise, many kids use, but most do not use daily, and there are some adults who use ten to 20 times per month.
Yet it is daily and near-daily users who account for about 80 percent of consumption. As policy liberalized, cannabis transformed from a weekend party drug to a daily habit, becoming more like tobacco smoking and less like drinking. The number of Americans who self-report using cannabis daily or near-daily grew from 0.9 million in 1992 to 7.9 million in 2016.
Here are a few other pertinent statistics. Just under half of consumption is by people who report either having been in alcohol or drug treatment or suffering enough current problems to meet medical criteria for substance-use disorder. (Since denial is a hallmark of addiction, this proportion is likely conservative.) About 60 percent of consumption is by people with a high-school education or less, a group with lower disposable income and greater sensitivity to falling prices.
Prices have indeed fallen, and sharply. From August 2014 to August 2017, prices (with taxes) in Washington's state-legal market fell by 70 percent — from $23.50 to $7.25 per gram. The THC potency — the key measure of how strong the marijuana is — now averages 22 percent, so the cost per hour of intoxication has fallen below $1, cheaper than beer or going to the movies.
Product variety has exploded, including THC-infused candies and edibles, oils that can be vaped (akin to e-cigarettes), and chunks of 70-plus percent THC that are suitable for flash-vaporization ("dabbing"). The increase in average daily dose has been startling. Until 2000, the average potency of seized cannabis never exceeded 5 percent, and 4 percent was typical. Someone consuming one 0.4-gram joint each weekend night was consuming 0.032 grams of THC per week, or 4.6 milligrams per day. Daily users now average about 1.3 grams per day. At 20 percent potency, that is 260 milligrams per day — nearly 60 times as much.
People develop tolerance to cannabinoids, so perhaps higher doses might have few behavioral consequences. On the other hand, the dose might make the poison. Consider two sharply different patterns of cocaine consumption. A member of the indigenous populations in the Andes who drinks a cup of coca tea per day (a habit analogous to coffee drinking) gets about 4 or 5 milligrams of cocaine, while the average "chronic" cocaine user (before the U.S. cocaine market went into decline) consumed about 260 milligrams of cocaine per day.
To put it in more familiar terms: My daily 20-ounce Diet Coke contains 76 milligrams of caffeine. Multiplying that dose by 60 would require drinking 30 Starbucks 16-ounce grande cappuccinos. Although humans also develop tolerance to caffeine, escalating from one Diet Coke to 30 grande cappuccinos would affect my health and behavior. So the consequences of the dominant mode of cannabis consumption today might differ from what Baby Boomers experienced on college campuses in days of yore. Unfortunately, most laboratory studies investigate doses of 20 to 50 milligrams of THC, not 200 or 300 milligrams.
I am not saying that consuming 260 milligrams a day of THC is unhealthy. I am saying there is little historical experience with those doses, and even less laboratory evidence. That makes me leery of creating a for-profit industry whose raison d'être is getting people to buy more and more of its products, which effectively means getting more and more people to use heavily.
I suggest that we pause for a decade and restrict legal supply to nonprofit organizations. One option would require organizations applying for a state license to be nonprofit groups whose governance structures focus them on serving the public interest. I suggest two conditions. First, the majority of governing-board members must come from the child-welfare and treatment communities. Second, the organization's charter must define its mission as meeting existing demand, in order to undercut the black market, but not promoting greater consumption.
Two arguments for legalization are the need to eliminate the black market and the desire to reduce criminal-justice costs. The approach I have described would achieve those goals. Also, although zero profits implies zero corporate income taxes, nonprofits pay excise taxes, and their employees pay individual income taxes, leaving most of the potential tax revenue intact.
The primary argument against legalization is concern about greater use and abuse. Evidence to date suggests that decriminalizing or legalizing use has modest effects, but commercialization does increase use. Use in the Netherlands rose not with the creation of its policy, but later, when the number of coffee shops rose. Likewise, use in Colorado rose not when its medical-marijuana law passed in 2000, but when dispensaries proliferated in 2009.
Sharp increases in use are less likely if the only legal suppliers are low-key, eschewing advertising, promotions, and lobbying, than if a for-profit industry is actively promoting greater use. Still, the nonprofit option makes problematic promotion only less likely, not unimaginable. Some nonprofit hospitals compete as aggressively as their for-profit counterparts. Nonprofit universities do, too. Even government monopolies can promote vices, as with state lotteries. Large organizations with ambitious, paid, professional leaders can manifest a drive to grow even when that growth is not profit-driven.
An alternative approach would be more conservative, restricting legal supply to small co-ops that produce for members but not outsiders. These "cannabis clubs" are common in Spain and some other countries, including Belgium and Uruguay.
Co-ops essentially pool the own-growing privileges of their members. A club with 30 members, each permitted one plant, could have up to 30 plants, and all 30 could be at the residence of whichever member had a green thumb. This would preserve artisanal production and avoid economies of scale that radically drive down prices. Spanish clubs allow sale to members at cost, to reimburse gardeners for materials and time. A more cautious version would permit only gifting.
Admittedly, the co-op model would not displace the entire black market. Most high-frequency users would probably join and so take most of the market away from criminals, but youth, low-frequency users, and some frequent users might still purchase in the black market. That is not a fatal flaw: After all, in the lauded "Dutch model" of legalizing only retail sale, 100 percent of production and wholesale distribution is black-market activity, so a plan that protects against greater use and eliminates 60 percent of the black market should not be dismissed.
Nor are the co-op and nonprofit models mutually exclusive. A state could permit co-ops to grow for members tax-free while also allowing other nonprofits to supply taxed cannabis to those who do not wish to join a co-op. That combination might all but eliminate the black market while tempering somewhat the size and power of the nonprofit organizations.
The pro-marijuana movement celebrates legalization as a triumph following in the footsteps of civil rights, women's rights, and homosexual rights. That is juvenile. Although most marijuana users have no problems with the drug, most sales and profits flow from people who consume so much that it interferes with their lives. The typical session of marijuana use is part of a bad habit, if not a diagnosable substance-use disorder.
Mark Kleiman, my colleague at New York University, has suggested meeting legalization with "grudging toleration," not hosannas. Grudging toleration can be practiced in various ways, including high taxes and restricting supply to a government monopoly managed by a public-health bureaucracy. A simpler option that the Justice Department could enforce tomorrow is restricting legal supply to nonprofit organizations.
Maybe ten years' experience will show that legalization does not increase problem use by enough to fuss over. If so, a for-profit industry could enter the market then. But if we create an industry and discover that it promotes use by people with substance-use disorders, then no matter how much we might regret that cannabis equivalent of the tobacco industry, there would be no turning back.

Further clarification on the development of structures. Some initial work has been done and has lead to a high level discussion document that outlines some options. This was not and was never intended to be a proposed structure. The FBU has deliberately not circulated this as;1 - it was likely to be misleading - effectively this would be like saying "here is a document that is not a draft structure that will not be the final structure." 2 - ongoing work has rapidly superceded this document.
Latest 11/1/13 A series of meetings have taken place in the week since our return from the New Year.
The FBU recently endorsed the STUC "A Just Scotland" report and has circulated the document to branches. At this stage the FBU believes it is more important to allow and encourage members to take part in the debate than to take any position on the future constitutional arrangements. Further work will be done on this strategy and we will be looking to engage widely on the topic and will contribute to subsequent work under the auspices of the STUC.
Work is underway to consider the best arrangements for command and control rooms. Much of this work involves consideration of the technical issues around bringing together different IT systems. There are No proposals to close control rooms. The FBU are involved in this work, with key priorities around our members jobs and their long term future within the SFRS.
The FBU have recently agreed with the Senior Leadership Team that under the "Transfer & Matching" arrangements a mobility clause should apply to members who do not meet the direct match criteria. This means that any uniformed member will not be asked to work outwith the previous employment territory unless; 1) They volunteer to work in another territory 2) They accept the offer of a promoted post This should give a reassurance that no individual shall be asked to travel unreasonably and that extensive travel will not be used against members.

Are You Achin'? Bacon Ice Cream Has Landed In Perth
Mmm, bacon.
Perth-bound bacon lovers, your time is now. We've told you about pizza flavoured ice cream, taco flavoured ice cream, butterbeer flavoured ice cream, even… ice cream made from waste. And those are great, but they were only the precursor to a superior flavour of ice cream.
We are, of course, talking about bacon-flavoured soft serve.
Korean premium soft serve company Honey Creme brought their smooth and creamy desserts to Perth in mid-2017 after expanding into countries like the US, Philippines and Indonesia. The company is famous for its very good ice cream, along with delicious toppings like churros, fairy floss, popcorn and its famous honeycomb.
You can find the store and, yes, the delightful bacon ice cream, on Barrack St in Perth. Go forth and gorge.

Enchantment of a Highlander (Highlander #3) by Madeline Martin
Synopsis: Love is the most potent of remedies.
The sweeping historical romance that began with Deception of a Highlander, and continued with Possession of a Highlander, reaches its dazzling conclusion in this scorcher set on the Scottish plains.
Alec MacLean returns home after a decade to find his recently deceased father has let his inheritance fall to ruin. As the new laird, it's Alec's responsibility to rebuild the castle and restore the lands. He must also regain the people's trust after having abandoned them so long ago, a feat not easily done when he fears he's plagued with the same darkness as his father.
Celia escaped the North Berwick witch trials at a young age, surviving because of the sacrifice of her beloved caretaker. She's made a life for herself in the wilds of Scotland where no laird rules, a life where she heals for coin, a life without love so she can never feel the hurt of loss again.
When the new laird comes back to claim his land, his determination to restore order threatens everything Celia has worked so hard to gain, especially with the undeniable attraction sizzling between them. Together, they will face all challenges, from the tangle of their own damaged pasts to the fire-fueled witch hunts sweeping the Isle of Mull. Together, they will find that the best way to overcome darkness and war is through the undeniable light of love.
Review: I received this copy as part of the NERFA contest put on by First Coast Romantic Writers. This one was difficult to get into. It starts off with Alec asking Celia to be his mistress within 5 minutes of knowing her. Their second meeting has Celia, a virgin, walking up to him and they have sex even though they still do not know each other. It moved too fast in the beginning. It didn't make sense as to why they jumped right into it, especially with her leery of strangers due to her past. And he took her virginity and it wasn't until he was seated all the way in that he stopped and asked her again to be his mistress. That was a bit late for asking her. So the beginning made it difficult to get into at first. Things could have developed slower and it would have made for a stronger beginning.
The plot does pick up the pace and the emotional tension between the two spikes once she believes he has died and gives into her desires for him. Once that happens things move along and the story became more engrossing. I liked their journey and the fact that both were willing to sacrifice their own happiness to keep the other safe. I liked the character development even if it started out rough. The characters do become stronger and the conflict was strong. Overall, the story as a whole was good.

Between Suunto Spartan vs Garmin Fenix 5X, there is nothing big difference to each other as it is being said, Spartan Sport version with wrist-based heart rate is the only model worth looking at in the collection. Outside of Suunto's color touchscreen and slightly more refined design elements, Garmin's Fenix 5 series offers a better value in basically every category.

British and Hold a .EU Domain? Here's what you need to know
The European Commission has announced that UK businesses and individuals will not be able to hold .EU domains once Brexit takes effect. This means that as many as 300,000 registrants will need to put in place plans for a website migration.
In a press release issued on 28th March 2018, the European Commission stated that "as of the withdrawal date, undertakings and organisations that are established in the United Kingdom but not in the EU, and natural persons who reside in the United Kingdom will no longer be eligible to register .eu domain names."
Renewal of .eu Domains Will Not Be Possible
The release continued confirmed that existing .eu registrants who are based in the UK will not be able to renew .eu domain names registered before the withdrawal date.
Brexit is currently scheduled to take place on 30th March 2019, so if you are currently using a .eu domain name it would make sense to set up a replacement in a less restrictive domain such as .com or .co.uk to replace the relatively little-used domain as soon as possible.
A dot-com domain can make a suitable place for companies to use as a multi-national portal. Despite its traditional association with US domains, it is technically an international domain. This can be used as a common portal to more regionally focused domains that will remain in the USA such as .de or .fr domain as well as to your new .co.uk site.
Over 300,000 .eu Domains Affected
If you are one of the 300,000 UK based registrants of .eu domains, we would recommend transferring to a new domain as soon as possible and undertaking a renewal for the maximum renewal period of 1 year. It is not yet known if domain registrars will pull .eu domains on the exit date or allow them to lapse naturally, but it seems most likely that the domain will lapse without a renewal being possible.
We would recommend for affected businesses to move web pages and emails to the new domain as soon as possible and use 301 redirects to pages that will not be affected by the changes to British membership of the EU. This may involve a full website migration
The EU announcement can be read in full at https://ec.europa.eu/info/publications/notice-stakeholders-withdrawal-united-kingdom-and-eu-rules-eu-domain-names_en.

Fix getting spherical AppCode to see checklist of recordsdata. In July, the European Fee said Google's Android policies had "denied rivals the prospect to innovate and compete". Considering that Fortnite on iOS has merely handed one hundred million downloads and cleared $a hundred and sixty million from in-app purchases, swerving the Play Store would possibly present to be a sensible enterprise resolution.
Apart from, by forcing avid gamers to obtain the sport by its website, Epic would not must share any of the money it makes from in-app purchases with Google. If Fortnite was on the Play Retailer, Google would take a 30% slice, as Apple does with the iOS model.
The most recent Android and Google Play data for app and recreation builders. Android dominates the smartphone market, accounting for about eighty five% of all shipped handsets, in accordance with IDC. Google's attraction might take a variety of years. This is a fast guide on the way in which to create an Android data app utilizing Contentstack's Android SDK.
Let's take a deep dive to hunt out out why.
Twitter has updated its Android and iOS cell apps with a model new attribute and a number of other different effectivity upgrades. With the model new mannequin put in, clients will be capable of activate an information saver mode, which Twitter merely describes as a method to utilize much much less knowledge whereas scrolling by the use of your feed. Twitter does not quantify how a lot information the instrument saves. The substitute additionally makes managing group messages easier, alters how people interact with polls using VoiceOver, and improves labels for sure sorts of adverts. Twitter is free to obtain from the Google Play Retailer and iTunes App Retailer Twitter nonetheless affords Twitter Lite, which is a lightweight version of the app that prioritizes conserving data.
Google, which had mentioned it would enchantment, has argued that its free, open-source operating system has led to lower-value telephones and stoked opponents with its chief rival, Apple. The company filed its attraction Tuesday simply as it was unveiling its latest period of Pixel smartphones, which undercut iPhones on price.
Mounted crash on temporary-time utility pausing.
The European Commission has fined Google 4.34 billion euro ($5 billion) for breaking antitrust pointers, claiming the restrictions the tech large imposes on carriers and smartphone producers utilizing the Android working system helps the search engine maintain its vast market share.
My degree is that I do not suppose sufficient of us have completely contended with how extremely efficient and very important Android has turn into. Cell telephones are the primary computing platform for a huge swath of humanity, and the vast majority of them are using Android.
I additionally favored that it doubles as a photograph body, showing photos from the Google Photos albums you want it to show. I've by no means used a digital photograph physique, but I appreciated seeing my journey images pop up subsequent to my mattress. Also, it expenses the cellphone wirelessly fairly rapidly, which is good.

NORTH PERTH — An Atwood-area farmer called police last Tuesday in an effort to get Invenergy Canada surveyors off his land.
Koos Wilting said he received correspondence from Invenergy Canada stating the company's intention to survey Wilting's three parcels of land. Wilting's lawyer responded to the company, writing they wouldn't be permitted to do so. This correspondence went back and forth for about a month to a month and a half.
On Tuesday, May 8, Invenergy Canada representatives arrived at one of Wilting's properties. "They visited the house after," said Wilting. "We just talked. We came to the conclusion that we disagreed."
Wilting said his lawyer had advised him he could contact the authorities should surveyors show up and not wish to leave. So he telephoned the police and gave them the cell phone number of one of the Invenergy representatives. An officer called the representative and they spoke by phone.
Wilting says the group then proceeded to his third property. He called police again, who attended the scene. read article

Stark Challenges in Social Care
Stark Challenges in Social Care
A report by the Association for the Directors of Adult Social Services reveals the long term problems facing local authorities in delivering care for older residents with 78 per cent of councils expressing concern about their ability to meet the statutory duty to ensure care market stability within their existing budgets.
The survey has also revealed serious concerns about the impact of funding reductions on providers and the care market. Three quarters of councils believe that providers will experience financial difficulties over the next year, with two thirds concerned that those pressures could impact on the quality of care over that period and directly affect thousands of people who need those services.

Caritas Anchor House attends faith and communities conference
Our News in Brief
Caritas Anchor House attends faith and communities conference
Around 250 people, representing faith groups across the borough, attended the event at Old Town Hall, Stratford, designed to help build on the work of faith groups across Newham and how it could be used to benefit the whole borough.
As part of the evening eight residents, one from each of the council's community neighbourhood areas, received certificates for their work in organising Newham events, starting initiatives and advocating the needs of local residents. The awards recognised their work including promoting a local community garden for the enjoyment and health benefits of the community; and helping isolated people to socialise through coffee mornings.
A number of breakout sessions were held to help delegates look at how they can use this work and their own initiatives to develop a stronger community across the borough. Among the topics discussed were how to use arts to build community cohesion and how women can make a difference in the community.
Linda Maytum-Wilson, Acting Chief Executive of Caritas Anchor House, attended and said:
"It was a pleasure to attend this event and hear such positive stories from Newham residents.
"At Caritas Anchor House, it is our mission to encourage and facilitate a cohesive community, for both our residents and the wider community. We provide a home to over 250 homeless people each year, and work with them to help rebuild and improve their lives. Once complete, our Home and Hope Appeal will offer residents and community members' opportunities to improve personal resiliance.
"In addition, we provide community groups for families and elderly groups through our therapeutic counselling service Your Space, as well as clubs for the hard of hearing and a variety of community services at St Mark's Community Centre."

FOX Bet Review and Welcome Bonus
Coming to the marketplace in late August 2019, FOX Bet, formerly known as BetStars, opened its virtual doors just in time for the kickoff of the NFL season. With the rebranding, it doesn't take long to notice how improved the brand is, starting with the mobile app design and the implementation of the FOX Sports personalities.
Licensed and regulated in the state of New Jersey by the New Jersey Division of Gaming Enforcement, is FOX Bet the new best online sportsbook in New Jersey? Let's take a look.
|Custom Bet option
|Some odds can be a bit inflated
|Mobile app
|Casual-friendly welcome bonus
FOX Bet Welcome Bonus - How to Claim
FOX Bet's welcome offer comes in two-parts: Registration and deposit. For the registration portion, you simply will receive $20 free when you sign up. Next, you will receive a 100 percent match on deposits up to $100. You must use this bonus money on wagers of -200 odds or greater.
21+ T&C's Apply. NJ, PA & CO only. Gambling Problem? Call 1-800-Gambler
The registration process is quick, but it could be condensed. When you sign up, there are a few quick steps, which ask for a username/password, email and agreeing to the terms of service.
Then, you will be brought to another registration process that is also quick and asks for additional personal information related to real-money wagers such as your name, gender, date of birth, last four of your social security number and telephone number. This is all to assist in identifying you as a customer.
Desktop/Mobile Experience
While there is a website for FOX Bet, the main online sportsbook platform is found via mobile apps for both Android and iOS. Up front, this app is incredibly designed—perhaps the best we've seen. All of the different options on the app are even proportioned and they all have the correct amount of space on the interface.
The top of the app has filters for the different sports and links to promotions, results and a drop-down menu for how you'd like to display odds. Just below that there are unique bet options that are related to FOX Sports personalities. For example, there is one related to NFL analyst Cris Carter. The bet is represented as his concept, and it is "Odell Beckham Jr. 100+ receiving yards" and has +200 odds. These graphics do alternate with different options, too.
Below this, you'll see boosted bets (usually in the form of parlays) and the "#CustomBet" section which are not only created by FOX Bet, but users can also make suggestions by tweeting at FOX Bet.
Continuing down, the different games for the respective sport is displayed, with odds for moneyline, spread and totals. Lastly, at the bottom of the app, there is a button to go to the sportsbook and also for account management.
This app is not only well put together, but has just enough color and other aesthetically pleasing qualities that it makes you want to stay on and play, which is never a bad thing.
Getting Started/New Player Info
At the bottom of the app, click on the "Account" button, then "Help", then "Help Centre". Once you do this, you will be at the FAQ section. Now, when you go to "Sports", you will find four pages filled with information pertaining to betting on sports and other things such as important definitions. It can be a bit difficult to find for new players, but with enough poking around it's easily accessible.
21+ T&C's Apply. NJ, PA & CO only. Gambling Problem? Call 1-800-Gambler
Sports and Markets Available
FOX Bet offers plenty of sports to bet on, including but not limited to:
- Baseball
- Basketball
- Boxing/UFC
- Cricket
- Cycling
- Darts
- Football
- Golf
- Hockey
- Motor Sports
- Rugby
- Soccer
- Tennis
Markets to bet on include:
- Moneyline: betting on a team to win outright
- Spread: an amount of points used in favor or against teams to make the game "even"
- Totals: also known as over/under, you wager on if the total points will go over/under
- Futures: betting on events that will happen at a later date
- Parlay: placing one bet on multiple contests that all must win
- Round Robin: a way to bet on numerous parlays
- Teaser: manipulating point spreads, if applicable
- Live betting: betting on games in progress
- Custom Bets: created by FOX Bet or users
- Boosted Bets: items artificially increased odds-wise
Betting Lines
Perhaps one of the only drawbacks are that, sometimes, the betting lines at FOX Bet can be a bit over-inflated. For example, sticking with Odell Beckham Jr.'s Cleveland Browns, the moneyline is definitely more favorable toward the favorite and not as good on FOX Bet as it is on FanDuel. We will admit this is definitely nitpicking, but for experienced players, they will odds shop if needed.
Betting Features
- Live Betting: As mentioned in the bracketed explanation, this is really just betting on games that are already going on.
- Cash Out: If you placed a bet and it is going downhill fast, you have the option to cash out of the bet and salvage a portion of the original wager. It will not be the entire amount, but it will be something to help keep the virtual bankroll rolling.
- Boosted Bets: These are bets, usually in the form of parlays on FOX Bet, where the sportsbook has artificially increased the odds in the hopes of getting more action on certain things.
- Custom Bets: This is honestly one of the more interesting things on FOX Bet. This is a section of Custom Bets that are not only created by FOX Bet, but potentially made via user suggestions on Twitter.
21+ T&C's Apply. NJ, PA & CO only. Gambling Problem? Call 1-800-Gambler
Trust and Safety
Beyond being licensed and regulated in a state that is the Las Vegas of the east and has some incredibly strict guidelines for these online sportsbooks in terms of keeping customers data safe, the brand recognition of FOX should give you additional peace of mind. This is not some random company that has popped out of nowhere—it's FOX. We can confidently endorse this New Jersey online sportsbook to keep you and your data safe.

There's really not much to say here other than FOX Bet could quickly become the next big online sportsbook in a state that also has rigorous competitors such as DraftKings and FanDuel. Everything about this platform is excellent. Maybe having a desktop version would be nice, but other than that, there's really nothing bad to say here.

I woke up full of hope for the New Year and my enthusiasm lessened a bit, by the amount of trash found seaside on my Malmok walk this morning. Revelers had a great time welcoming the New Year in our lovely neighborhood, and just left their garbage behind, walking away from the mess they've created, just like that, leaving their empty bottles and wasted fireworks shells, for the housekeepers. Who are these people? How can they leave bagged trash and many times just empties under a tree? How can they walk away, disappear into the sunset, leaving unfinished business behind?
Don't they know that wilderness has no housekeepers; we are the stewards of beaches and trails. Here's a New Year resolution for you: In 2018, we will never walk away from a mess we've created. We won't move on, until it's fixed.
And you know I am not talking about trash alone.
So I was optimistic. Then I noticed the to-cry-for new shopping mall exactly across the cruise ship terminal and I wanted to just throw myself on the ground and cry in despair. The just-opened store units are filled to the brim with poor quality rags, schmattas, demonstrating zero effort and nul komma nul creativity, foretelling zip business success and zilch for ROI.
But I was optimistic. So many good changes are in store for us in 2018. Innovation in our educational system, slowly transitioning to English as the language of instruction. The after school activities will guarantee all kids are off the street and off their phones, in the afternoon hours. Adjustments will be made in social affairs, people saying something when they see something and an excellent response and monitoring systems will be placed for cases of suspected child neglect or abuse. We will pay great attention to our kids and our elderly. We will spend 70% of our salaries on living expenses, save 10%, give 10% to charity and spend 10% on travel and enrichment, on interesting hobbies and leisure activities. We will take good care of the ocean the reefs and our beaches. There will be no more stray cats and dogs on the island, they will all be adopted. People will report most of their income, I say most in view of all the flea markets and kiosks, and pay their taxes on time, allowing our progressive government to meet its obligations. We will get better at preventing crime and responding to it.
As for our government, no minister will hire his sisters; there will be zero nepotism in the coming year. People will not be fired based on their political color – I just heard the diligent cleaning lady of the MFA in Paradera was let go because of her suspected political color. Government employees will be hired on a merit system. The Beach Policy will come into effect, licensing and regulating the use of our #1 asset. The bureaucracy will catch up on all files at DIMAS, and DIP and wherever files are accumulating. Our health care system will improve the ease of access to specialists – I just heard a patient passed away, waiting to see a gastric specialist for an appointment in May 2018. A new psychiatric ward, affiliated with the hospital, will help care for the haunted and suffering. There will be no big public works project undertaken without polling us for our opinion first, no new bridges, no trams.
Less concerts, less noise, more culture, more connectivity and better technology.
And let us once and for all, let go of the dream of a lucrative refinery. It's all political trash. Verbal pollution. In 2018 we are letting go of petroleum, and sticking to alternative sources of energy!
Let me stop here, I can go on forever, but no one will read. Here's to a successful 2018.
My Computer is back in business
I just read that Dr. Roberto Bryson passed away.
My deepest condolences are hereby extended to family members and friends. Dr. Bryson's passing is a great loss for our community.
I first met the good doctor when my son as an infant ran into some medical challenge, on a weekend or a holiday, I forgot what it was. But Dr. Bryson never forgot that I once came to see him, and that I had a son. He always asked me about him, with a bright, sunshiny face, and that eternal I-so-happy-to-see-you grin.
I also met him on a number of occasions at the then Radisson Resort, where his colleague Dr. J. R. Rajnherc organized the annual Dr. Bryson pediatric symposium, on a few consecutive years.
Rajnherc told me at the time that it all started when Dr. Bryson retired, reaching the young age of 65. Up until then none of the medical specialists have ever been honored while still well and alive, for his/her contributions to this island's health and well-being. "For that reason," Rajnherc explained, "I decided to organize the conferences titled Dr. Bryson Pediatric Symposiums, in honor of the retired, most-loved and most-respected pediatrician."
I also interviewed Dr. Bryson about two years ago, for the Rotary club book, he was president of the club in 2000 -2001. The interview was titled "Great Awareness – Take Action," and I think it is worthy of a reprint because we just lost a great human being, and shedding light on a small portion of his life, honors his memory.
Dr. Bryson decided to join the Rotary Club in 1988. He came from school 10 years prior to that, after a decade of studies, and enjoyed settling down on Aruba with his family, dedicating much time to his many patients. But the quest for more persisted, and when he was invited to join the Rotary Club, he answered with great enthusiasm and has been a staunch supporter of everything the club does.
Helping the community, via the Rotary Club, he felt, was as good as being a physician, because it was satisfying and gratifying, that members could serve each other in more than one capacity.
Enjoying both ends of spectrum, Dr. Bryson had a thriving professional life and great interest in the Rotarians. Some of his favorite projects included the Kibrahacha 60+, which he believed was fantastic.
Also during his presidency Rotarians performed hands-on community work by helping out a kindergarten in Savaneta. One of the best club initiatives, he explained, was the Back to School activity in conjunction with Roteract, where each August an outing for 40 underprivileged kids was organized, serving breakfast or lunch, and handing out fully equipped school bags.
Then of course the distribution of funds to charities was always moving and emotional. Dr. Bryson believed that all human beings are here on earth for a reason, and one of those reasons was to help each other and change the world, one day at the time.
"We changed some rules during my presidency too," he revealed," when the first woman was introduced to the Rotary Club, it was a major departure from tradition, and Avi Swaen, had the honor to pioneer that."
Dr. Bryson was always very active around Fiesta Rotaria, and during his term as president and event raised more than one quarter of a million florins, which presented a modest increase over the previous year, and it has been increasing ever since.
While the eradication of polio in India and Africa was the Rotary's main goal, Dr. Byson explained, the club thinks globally, and acts locally, in a most effective manner.
May his memory be blessed. And may he rest in peace.
Some old news, some good news
There was a lot in the media this week about the excessive number of coordinators who worked for the former MinPres in the previous government who were officially let go.
Remember, they stopped working on the fatal night of Sept 22nd, election night, when the MinPres decided on his own to forfeit the election results, in spite of the fact that he won 39.86% of the vote, which would have given him the right, with 23,376 votes, to remain head of state; but because his party lost 4 parliamentary seats he decided to head to the opposition benches.
This week the people working for the previous government on TEMPORARY employment agreements, got their walking papers. It's the beginning of January, and they were finally officially dismissed. Keep in mind that they have NOT been working since September, that's FOUR salaried months, AND they all knew when they got into it, that job security is relative to their employer's ability to stay in power, but the former MinPres, as well as the former MinJust, still found it necessary to shed public crocodile tears about 'mother and fathers' ushered out into the snow coatless and shoeless, by an unsympathetic government. They delivered addresses and interviews laced with great pathos and drama.
(If indeed, and you really cared about employing your people long-term, you should have stayed in government, you shouldn't have spent the reported Awg 141.811,20 on your birthday party and left the country with a 131-million-florin hole in the budget. But that's water under the now-banged-up bridge.)
It has always been self-understood that the coordinators gotta go. Stop talking about it. Those permanently employed and borrowed from other government departments will be absorbed elsewhere, and the temporary forces will have to update their resumes, get haircuts, and go job hunting. There is opportunity out there.
The election results clearly indicated that the people of the island empowered the current government to reduce its overhead, mostly payroll, which is reportedly twice the size of Curacao's government apparatus, with a similar number of island residents.
Please stop talking start doing.
HOWEVER, if our new government intends to fill all these positions now vacant with locals of another political color, then the in-and-out maneuver becomes an exercise in futility. Hopefully not. If the cleaning lady at the MFA in Paradera does a good job, she should be allowed to stay, even if a green lining is suspected.
But I have good news
A billboard in Noord publicizing the number of traffic casualties in 2017 indicates we just had two during the past 12 months, which is a considerable improvement over last year.
True, every casualty is one too many, but traffic seems to be safer on the island. I called the Police spokesperson who took most of the credit. He reported to me that the frequent police checks must have contributed positively. He also opined that the improved roads, and the changes made at deadly intersections, added to traffic safety.
Sure the redesign of bad roads and dangerous intersection helps, but for the coming year remember improved signs, and better light, better pedestrian crossings with warning lights and the elimination of taxi stops mid road — they should have designated, well-defined areas.
I asked the spokesperson if we managed to minimize drinking and driving. We're working on it, he said. And the recent don't-text-and-drive regulation was helpful too!
At a recent holiday party, some of my friends decided to drink and use taxis coming and going. The beginning of the evening proved easy, they climbed into a taxicab and arrived at the party's headquarters ready to rumba. But as the event wrapped up BEFORE midnight, it took them 90 minutes to get a cab. The dispatcher announced that the driver could not find the address – Waze? Arubook? – and that all drivers went home. Sort of counter-productive!
Shall we continue to drink and drive if taxi cabs are unavailable??
My New Year's diet only lasted one day
Boxing Day, as soon the fireworks subside, I usually embark on an ambitious diet plan. For the record, in early January 2018, my good intentions only lasted one day because Executive Chef Matt Boland, who ruined the plan with his new lunch menu at Gilligan's Seafood Shack seaside at the Hilton Aruba Caribbean Resort & Casino.
A few things ruined my diet that day, not just one, but the chief culprit was the Lost Island Lobster and Crab Grilled Cheese, loaded with chunky lobster and crab salad, pepper jack cheese, and island slaw, on brioche Texas toast, with chipotle aioli.
And Texas toast meant that the brioche, a tasty butter and egg enriched French bread, was sliced at double the average thickness of most sliced breads.
It was a temptation I couldn't resist, I love crab and I love lobster and the warm golden-brown crust of that fat sandwich was pure decadence with the spicy, gooey cheese in the center.
I shared a few menu items with Nunette Maduro, she is a skinny-mini, she can take it. True to the restaurant's name, the Gilligan's Seafood Shack menu now features a number of lobster and crab combos such as Lobster, Shrimp & Corn Fritters with a citrus chili sauce, the Millionaire's Lobster Roll, with lobster and crab salad, celery, tarragon herb mayo, Dijon mustard, and a squirt of lemon on a buttery toasted bun; Crab Cake Burger BLT, with an old bay lump crab cake, bacon, lettuce, tomato, crispy onions, coleslaw, and a lemon herb tartar sauce with French fries.
The fries deserve a big mention on their own. They are real fries, made from whole potatoes, crazy delicious, they have never seen the inside of a freezer or been to any factory, the Belgians take credit for inventing the frites, but Gilligan's Seafood Shack perfected them.
The menu also includes other notable dishes named after the characters of a legendary sitcom from the 60s, the year the resort was originally constructed, Gilligan's Island, about seven tourists accidentally stranded on an island, and their failed escapes from it.
On my list to try one day, the Coconut Shrimp with mango sauce, I already know that the seared Ahi Tuna Salad with sweet chili orange vinaigrette on a bed of green is phenomenal, and have eyed the Grilled Salmon Salad, with a mango salsa, next.
Fish Taco? Of course, filled with crispy grouper and chipotle cream.
Our waitress revealed that Freddy's Crispy Fish Fry with lemon dill tartar is the most popular lunch item, competing with the grouper sandwich, with a lemon dill sauce. Her eyes sparkled when she said that, apparently guests love the new lunch menu.
Anyway, and that's just on the Sea Side of the menu. The Land Side is also filled with deliciousness: Castaways Chicken Sate, escorted by coconut peanut sauce and shrimp crackers, and the jaw breaking burgers, USDA half pounders, quesadillas, wraps, chicken wings, chicken sandwiches, pita pockets, salads, all served with chef Matt's signature throw-caution-to-the-wind-let's-just-make-it-as-delicious-as-possible attitude.
Great view, to match the serious food!
From the resort's newsletter
MATT BOLAND, Executive Chef: It is with great pleasure that we extend a warm bon bini to the one and only Chef Matt Boland. Chef Matt opened up our prime steakhouse, Sunset Grille, in the year 2000 and he is now back as our Executive Chef. Matt will dedicate his talent to develop a fresh concept for Gilligan's Seafood Shack, our seaside restaurant and continue to nurture and expand the steakhouse experience at the Sunset Grille, enhancing the already very welcoming environment with over-the-top delicious culinary offerings, infusing innovation, and producing cutting edge food.

Oranges, reds, yellows...
Oranges, reds, yellows...
blanketing the horizons,
covering the mountains,
em-blazing the town.
Oranges for light -
Oranges for light -
subtle yet obvious.
Yellows to highlight the day -
visions of dreams,
hopes and desires.
Red for intensity-
the heat of the noonday sun,
passion of a lover's bed,
violence of abuse.
All held dear
within the boundaries
of love and addiction -
that which drowns the Spirit,
empties the Soul
unless fought against
by truth, honesty
and sincerity of love.

Some of the Santa Gertrudis breed's most astute judges and stud cattle operators were drawn to the Watson family's Watasanta annual bull sale outside of Tamworth on Wednesday where red bulls averaged $9041 alone.
Neil and Rosalie Watson and family offered a "best of the best" line up of 39 bulls with 32 of them selling for an 82 per cent clearance and an overall sale average of $7937.
The offering featured 31 traditional Santa Gertrudis bulls, with 24 sold under the hammer for a $9041 average and $23,000 top price.
A further eight Black Santa Gertrudis bulls were cleared to average $4625 and top at $8000.
All 10 registered yearling heifers sold to average $1300/head.
The bidding action was dominated by some of Queensland's top Santa Gertrudis breeders including Waco Cattle Company, Mungallalla, Triple S Santas, Dalby, and the Perrett family, Wandoan.
But it was Queensland commercial breeders and long term supporters Ashley and Doris McKay of Torres Park at Augathella and Cherry Hill, Injune, who won a spirited bidding war for the polled 25-month-old sire, Watasanta Night-Sky 2388.
By Hardigreen Park Ringer J126 and out of Watasanta 1657, who went back to the $32,000 Canowindra In The Groove, the bull weighed 950 kilograms with P8 and rib fats of 13 and 10 millimetres and an eye muscle area of 132 square centimetres.
He had one of the highest scrotal circumferences in the catalogue of 43 centimetres and and intramuscular fat score of six per cent.
The couple run a 2000 head Santa Gertrudis breeding herd turning off feeder cattle for the EU market. Steers are offloaded either into the Roma saleyards or to JBS' Beef City outside of Toowoomba with any fat heifers bound for Stanbroke.
Having been a bulk buyer at last year's Watasanta sale, this year the couple again took home the biggest line, with their five bull purchases averaging $12,800.
Mr McKay said weight gain, marbling and docility were among the traits they were selecting for and their top priced bull expressed that, especially with a 1.25 daily weight gain.
"People look at us sometimes and wonder why we pay so much when we run a commercial operation but we get that back in what we get for our commercial cattle," he said.
"We have been buying here for about four years...there are some beautiful bulls here today.
"There are a lot of good judges buying bulls today. You don't get a better judge than Alastair Bassingthwaighte."
Bidding peaked early during sale proceedings with the first seven bulls averaging $13,800.
Among them were the second top price bull of the sale, the $20,000 Watasanta New Comer 2344 who was crowned reserve senior champion at the Sydney Royal Show.
The 26-month-old son of Hardigreen Park Ringer J126 and out of Watasanta 1579 was secured by the Fletcher family of Tamworth and was the heaviest bull of the catalogue at 1006 kilograms.
He had a 1.27 daily weight gain, P8 and rib fats of 13 and eight millimetres and the second biggest EMA at 142sq cm.
The sale featured 28 sons of Watasanta's headline sire, Hardigreen Park Ringer J126, with 25 selling under the hammer to average $10,277.
He continues to pay dividends for the stud who unknowingly secured the bull a few years ago when the then 13-year-old Tom Watson put in a successful bid for $35,000.
Having used the sire for their maximum three year tenure, Watasanta stud principal Neil Watson said next year would be the final opportunity to secure the sought after progeny.
"The classification rate (of Ringer progeny) on the bulls has been probably 90 per cent and on the females we got 100 per cent classified, which not many people get," he said.
"While this line is a good line, the ones we have got coming through for next year are phenomenal. The temperament of the bulls is so good, we are number one on temperament."
Given the dry conditions, this year's draft had been cut back and Mr Watson said only the best of the best were offered.
"I was proud to stand over every bull right up until the end," he said.
"The draft of bulls averaged just under 900 kilograms, they averaged 130 square centimetre eye muscle and they averaged 40 centimetre scrotal."
It seems the future of the Watasanta herd is in good hands. It was Mr Watson's other son, Jack, who picked the top price bull despite his father shifting him back to lot 23.
"He had him in the top pen and of course he is in the police academy for 12 months and when he did the draft I swapped (the bull) around behind his back and put him in a pen of thicker set bulls down the back of the sale," he said.
In total there were 44 registered bidders from local areas and further north into Queensland.
Purchasers of three bulls included David Bassingthwaighte, Waco Cattle Co, Mungallala, Qld, the Perrett family, Wandoan, Qld, Widden Stud Australia, Denman, and Craig and Philippa McGuigan, Glenmorgan, Qld.
An additional four bulls were sold at the conclusion of the sale for $4000 and $5000 each.
The sale was conducted by Davidson Cameron and Co with Paul Dooley as auctioneer.

Gaucho's Richmond
A low-slung, boathouse inspired building, Gaucho Richmond is a sophisticated way to spend a day on the river. Inside, the glass-panelled walls offer panoramic sights of Richmond Bridge and Petersham Meadows, so you can enjoy glorious views at any time of year. And in the summer months – under the branches of a towering plane tree – the waterside terrace hosts an alfresco kitchen, serving up seafood barbecues alongside our authentic Argentine steak.
Riverside, The Towpath
020 8948 4030
I went with the humans to Gaucho in Richmond on a lovely summer evening. The restaurant is in a fantastic location, right on the river and has a large outside terrace area. Inside is a large, airy restaurant with floor to ceiling windows so you can still enjoy the view. Inside is air-conditioned so we doggies can keep cool on even the hottest days. Argentinian beef is what they do best here but they do have a full menu including some veggie dishes. The humans shared a Chateaubriand which they said was out of this world - well it must have been good because they didn't save me any! Good job then that the waiter brought me some biscuits and a bowl of water. I highly recommend my four legged foodie friends pay them a visit. We doggies are allowed in all areas of the restaurant at all times in Richmond and Hampstead. All other Gaucho restaurants are dog friendly until 6.00pm each day.

The Great Northern Railway originally did not travel through Princeton. Instead, it ran from Minneapolis, Minnesota through Elk River and to St. Cloud. Another line ran from St. Cloud through Milaca to Duluth.
In January 1886, Residents of Princeton and Zimmerman, Minnesota, were filled with hopelessness fearing they would never enjoy the luxury of railroad service. Although pioneer inhabitants of these communities frequently besought the St. Paul, Minneapolis & Manitoba's (St P M & M) management to provide railway service, the town folks were rebuffed repeatedly. however, during the depths of their despair, one Major A.M. Fridley of Anoka, Minnesota stopped in Princeton. One night during his stay at the old North Star Hotel, he suggested to a group of friends that it might be beneficial to call on Mr. J.J. Hill personally. Consequently, a self-constituted committee consisting of Messrs. C.H. Rines, T.H. Caley, J.T.D. Sadley, the editor of the Princeton Union, and Senator Houlton of Elk River, was accorded an audience with Mr. Hill. The committee appraised Mr. Hill of what they thought residents of Mille Lacs county would do to get a rail line constructed through their communities.
James J. Hill challenged local business owners to raise $50,000 to route the line through Princeton. The money was raised, and a line was built through Princeton.[4] Surveying for the route began in late March 1886, and the track-laying crew started building the new line from Elk River on October 24, 1886. With few obstacles to construction, the line was finished quickly, and rail service began on November 29, 1886.[3] The Princeton route actually shortened the distance between Minneapolis and Duluth.[4] Initially, service was frequent, but in November 1899, the route to Duluth was relocated to a line passing further east, connecting through Coon Rapids, Cambridge and Brook Park. Service on the line declined as a result, with luxury passenger cars being replaced with ordinary coaches in 1908, the U.S. Mail route being lost in 1930, and passenger service terminated altogether in 1952. Freight service was discontinued between Princeton and Milaca between 1972 and 1973 and between Elk River and Princeton in 1976. The Elk River-Milaca line, the one-time short cut to Duluth.
Towns along former line:
- Elk River
- Zimmerman
- Princeton
- Brickton
- Long Siding
- Pease
- Milaca
Most of the rail embankment is still visible when encountered and is easily discernible in satellite imagery. Some embankment has been destroyed from development, especially at Oak Knoll Park in Elk River where the line junction with the mainline to St. Cloud.
