Cabbage is one of those veges that has bad childhood memories for me. Cooked too long – disgusting. Not sliced thinly enough – equally disgusting. And lets face it – bland bland bland. So when I saw that Madame Vy (Trinh Diem Vy) had put Cabbage leaf parcels with shrimp mousse in broth on the menu for the Morning Glory Cooking School in Hoi An, I wasn't overly enthusiastic about learning how to make it.
The beauty of Madame Vy's cooking school is that you learn much more about the food than just how to cook it. Cabbage, apparently, is very good for your stomach. A prospective bride must make this soup for the future mother-in-law. It tests her cooking skills and indicates how well she will look after her future husband's health.
It was gorgeous and well worth of effort involved in rolling little shrimp dumplings in cabbage leaves and tying up with spring onion into a wee green bow.
Cook 6 cabbage leaves in salted water for 2 minutes. Blanch the green part of 12 spring onions. Bring litre of vege stock to the boil. Using two oiled teaspoons, shape the shrimp mousse into small balls and poach the dumplings for one minute. Place the dumpling on the edge of each sqaured off cabbage leaf. Fold up and tie with the spring onion. Place parcels in broth with carrot slices, and any left over shrimp balls. Serve with sprinkle of coriander and few drops of sesame oil.
Shrimp Mousse:
Blend 200gm shrimps, 1/4 t sea salt and black pepper, 1/2 t fish sauce, 1/2 t sugar, 1/3 cup finely chopped spring onion, and one egg white.
Here's the link to the Morning Glory website. You will see that Madame Vy's empire is much more than the cooking school.

My design made for Batman Vs Superman contest. Superman fighting the bat crashing into te wall.
The best way to print it is upside down. Be careful with the support placement, superman arms are the delicate ones but with 5 - 10 supports will be enough.
Build supports around Superman shoulders, cape and head
Batman arms and hand.
Infill %15 for a stronger sculpture.
2 Outline shells and 2 bottom solid layers should work.
You can use PLA material and apply acetone to make it look like rock texture. In the back part has two holes to attach it to the wall nails.

Liberal Ovens Valley state electorate conference chair Helen Senior urges party to get behind National Tim McCurdy
A PLOT to eventually enable the Liberal Party to contest the seat of Ovens Valley has been dismissed as normal electioneering passion by the campaign manager for Nationals' incumbent Tim McCurdy.
Liberal Ovens Valley state electorate conference chair Helen Senior said in a letter, which also contained disparaging remarks about independent Tammy Atkins, that her own party should get behind their Coalition partners and ensure Mr McCurdy was returned.
"If he is defeated it will be four years before the Liberal Party get the chance to run a candidate and we will be no better off _ most likely worse," Mrs Senior said.
"It is possible that things may turn out in the new year of a by election in Ovens Valley.
"We will be able to run a candidate earnestly, and win."
Under the Coalition agreement the Liberals can't run in Ovens Valley at this election.
His campaign manager Marty Corboy welcomed the show of support from Mrs Senior.
"Election campaigns bring out a lot of passion in people on both sides of politics, who are invested in the best outcomes for the community," Mr Corboy said.
"As Tim's campaign manager, I welcome our Coalition partners enthusiastic support for his campaign knowing that they want the best for Ovens Valley, that being an elected Liberal-National government in Spring Street and Tim McCurdy in Ovens Valley.
"I look forward to seeing them on our polling booths and sharing our resources for the right result both locally and statewide."
Mrs Senior said it was a "private letter" even though it carried the Liberal Party logo.

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas.
There are exactly 50 days left until Christmas. Can you believe the year is almost up? I can't. Personally I'm not a fan of Christmas shopping, but I love Christmas "Give me Presents now" time. I know that's selfish but blame it on being an only child. I can't wait until I get my first pay check in November so I can start buying giftcards (and only giftcards) for my family and friends. Gliteratti is already getting ready for the season by releasing a few goodies for Christmas. The Christmas Market sim is literally days away or it's probably up right now because I'm kinda of slow when remembering things and the sweet Katey Coppola has released these amazing presents you can sit on for your Christmas pictures/cards as well as a brand new pose set Shane and I are modeling in the first picture. Also there's a HUGE SALE going on at Gliteratti where most of her pose sets are for 100L. Plus her couples/group poses are 100L and her fatpacks are 50 percent off. Word on the SL street is that there's a contest coming up and considering the last contest she had she gave over 100,000L in linden and prizes, this is going to be amazing.
Because we love Katey's stuff and her poses cater our bodies almost perfectly (we're little women!) We decided to put on some winter clothes, forget fall momentarily and head for winter. We're not showcasing the clothes. It's all about the Xmas-y poses that's going to be coming to Gliteratti in the next few days. Shane is posing with the male gift box that has 5 poses that all you do is sit on and use the menu to shuffle through the poses, and I'm using the female version.
Here's your personal limo to Gliteratti!

WILMINGTON, NC (WECT) - A workshop is planned in Wilmington to help white women understand how they are complicit in white supremacy, and make changes to advance racial justice by ending the harms of racism.
"Basically, it's an opportunity for white women to come together as a group and talk about the ways that we've internalized white supremacy and how we can get out from under that, and why it's in our interest to do so," said Kari Points, the workshop designer and a facilitator.
The workshop, titled Finding Freedom: White Women Taking On Our Own White Supremacy, is scheduled for Feb. 9 from 9 a.m.-5 p.m. in downtown Wilmington. To attend, you must register in advance on EventBrite. The cost of attendance ranges from free to $250 depending on your income level.
During the workshop, a racial justice facilitator will lead the group in sharing stories of how they have maintained white supremacy in an "honest space." They will then discuss how to make life changes to achieve their goal of a racially just world.
"For us as white people, we've often, through our whole lives, had the experience that nobody expects us to name our race or name the ways that our race and our culture and ways of doing things dominate the spaces that everybody occupies and has to live and work in," said Points.
Workshop participants will create art, increase awareness and resilience in their bodies, and build connections with each other for accountability.
"Shame and guilt never actually helped anybody," Points said. "Moving through those feelings of shame and guilt and actually starting to focus on action, and how we can show up for activism that's led by people of color, that's visioned by people of color, in a way that's constructive, those are the things that people say over and over again are valuable to them throughout the workshop."
The workshop welcomes a wide range of white women, including those who identify as mixed race, multi-racial, or white passing. People who identify as non-binary, trans, or non-conforming are also welcome.
"Our goal is not actually to be limiting or exclusionary, but this is rare," Points said. "In fact, it's the only time for most people ever that they've sat down in a space that's consciously anti-racist and also specifically for white women."
Points said the workshop came into being after organizers saw a statistic that 53 percent of white women voted for President Donald Trump.
"I can understand why a white person would vote for Trump because that's pretty much what he stands for is white people's interest and the ways that he sees them," Points said. "But as a woman, to vote for Trump, I couldn't make sense of that."
People with all ranges of experience with racial issues are invited.
"I set a tone for it to be a very welcoming environment," Points said. "Some people who are there may have never talked or thought about these issues before. Other people may have been working on these issues for a decade or two decades and it's welcoming to you wherever you are along that continuum."
These workshops have been held twice in Durham and once in Greensboro. They hope to hold another workshop in Danville, Va.
Seeing through the culture
During her life, Points came to understand racism in culture. She grew up in a small, rural town in southern Indiana.
"It was and is a very conservative, religious, racist environment, and it was just like the water we all swam in," Points said. "So I couldn't see racism there when I was a kid."
When she was 16, Points spent a year in Germany as an exchange student.
"What I witnessed, what was so obvious to me, was how people are racist and xenophobic toward Muslim Turkish people who were in Germany in that time as guest workers and their families," she recalled.
When Points returned home, she saw her own culture from a new perspective.
"I think we tend to think of racism, or especially the term 'white supremacy,' as the worst, like white nationalists in Oregon, or what happened in Charlottesville, the Klan," Points said. "But truthfully, white supremacy is something that permeates and goes through all of our lived experiences, so it can be much more subtle than that."

I became a servant of this gospel by the gift of god's grace given me through the working of his power.
It is easy for me to think of being a servant of Christ - easy to think but not to act on - but I was stunned by this verse's insistence that it is the Good News that we are serving. The word, the gospel, is our master not simply Jesus. The word has a life of its own: spreading, flourishing, moving, returning at a rate that confounds authorities and overcomes opposition (Acts 4.17, 6.7, 12.24). Spreading is what the Good News does. We are not needed but graciously wanted, asked and equipped as co-labourers. We sow seeds, we speak words, we live, breathe, act Good News, but we do it in cooperation with God's grace, anointed and enabled by his power. And so what does this mean practically? For we are reading a practical book here. To be a servant is to receive orders, to act on behalf of, to work for, to give yourself in service of. And this is not just any old master. This Good News is radical, peacemaking, reconciling, accepting. A beautiful boss to be working for. And so what's our office? Where's our desk? What's on the don's agenda? We have been appointed a particular, peculiar, unique set of circumstances in which to serve this mighty word. Be an agent of good news today. Be a willing slave and listen out for your instructions.

TELEVISION chef Adam Reid opened a new food technology room at Mossley Hollins High School which is part of a £170,000 expansion programme.
Adam, a winner on the Great British Menu on which he has appeared twice, also supervised as year eight students made carrot cakes.The increase in school numbers at Mossley Hollins resulted in the need for two new technology rooms – one for food and one for science – at a cost of £170,000.
"We have always had children wanting to do food technology which is always over-subscribed," explained John Denton, chair of governors.
Uppermill-based Adam, who is chef-patron at The French at The Midland Hotel in Manchester, also visited St Raphael's RC Primary where he gave a talk about healthy eating and presented school with books.
The visit to the two schools came about through Gail Southworth, family liaison officer at St Raphael's, who is a friend of Adam, who has also lived in Mossley and Diggle while his wife Natalie is from Stalybridge.
St Raphael's holds the gold award in Tameside schools' Food4Life which is a chance for schools to celebrate and be recognised for good practice around healthy eating and a healthy lifestyle.
It is given to schools that show a whole school approach to the provision and promotion of healthy food. It also ensures that the food being served meets school food standards.
St Raphael's supports other initiatives including a healthy lunch box policy, healthy break time snacks, Eatwell breakfast club, cook and eat with School and City in the Community Foundation.
They also have active lunch times and after school clubs for netball, football, dance and cheerleading and even has yoga sessions.
Pupils also go swimming, take part in rock and river outdoor pursuits and holds twice weekly wake and shake.
St Raphael's also promotes walking to school, holds Freddy fit days and the whole school walking around Stalybridge Country Park.
"We support children and wider community to make healthy choices and it is great for the children to meet inspirational people and give them aspirations," explained school business manager Claire Fletcher.Adam, who was raised in Audenshaw and attended Audenshaw County Primary and St Thomas More RC High School, Denton, was delighted with the feedback he received from the visits.
"It is about trying to inspire people to go into the food industry because there is a shortage of chefs," he explained.
Adam, 35, trained at Paul Heathcote's School of Excellence in Manchester.
He returned to Manchester in 2013 to join Simon Rogan to launch The French at the Midland Hotel in his first role as head chef. He took over the reins in November 2016 when Simon moved on.
Adam was named Manchester Chef of the Year in 2014 while The French was ranked 17 in the 2018 Waitrose Good Food Guide and the same year gained three rosettes in the AA Restaurant Guide and was listed in Square Meal's UK Top 100 Restaurants.
Adam had previously worked at Mallory Court Hotel, Warwickshire, and The Chester Grosvenor, both Michelin-starred.

Seagull Maritime Agencies Delivers Electricity to Comoros Islands
Worlds Window Group's company Seagull Maritime Agencies was commissioned with a never-before challenge – In a World Bank project, the Union of Comoros, an island country in the Indian Ocean, was to be powered with electricity. For this, Seagull Maritime Agencies was hired and a cargo of 5 transformers, 5 alternators, 5 accessories, that is, a total cargo worth 60 million dollars had to be shipped from Mumbai to Kenya and then finally to Comoros.
Seagull Maritime loaded the entire cargo in the mother vessel at Mumbai port, for Kenya. Once the cargo landed in Comarco's private jetty in Kenya, the cargo had to be moved from the mother vessel to the Barge boat.
<photo – partially filled barge>
In the Kenyan private jetty <http://comarcogroup.com>itself, Seagull experts added two trailer trucks and one crane for transportation; these were to be returned on the voyage back.
The Comoros islands are situated off the southeast part of the African continent in the Indian Ocean. When the vessel reached Moroni island docks, the team realised that during low tide, the water levels were so low that the ship sank into the ground.
We have a situation!
The experts at Seagull Maritime Agencies realised that considering the vessel sank too low during low tide, they can only work in the night when the tide was the absolute highest. During high tide, when the water levels increased and the ships rose in height due to buoyancy, a ramp was rolled out. This ramp could now take the transformer to the land. Needless to say, this was one hard task. Because if the water level went low, then the ramp would become inclined, like an elephant on a seesaw. This meant that the cargo load on the ramp would roll back dangerously until the water levels rose back up making the ramp flat.
Once the 75 tonne transformer was taken out of the vessel, long-armed cranes then picked up the load to move it to the trailer truck.

Microvision Reports Record First Quarter Revenue of $4.0 Million
Q1 revenue up 20% over prior quarter and 50% (Microvision only) over Q1 2004. Company targets sequential growth of 20 to 25% for Q2 driven by record product sales and strong contract revenue
BOTHELL, Wash.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--May 5, 2005-- Microvision, Inc. (Nasdaq:MVIS - News), a leader in light scanning technologies, today reported financial results for the first quarter 2005. Revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2005 was $4.0 million compared to $2.7 million (Microvision only) for the same period in 2004 (consolidated revenue for first quarter 2004 was $3.0 million, which included $316,000 of revenue attributable to Lumera). The company had previously indicated that it expected first quarter revenue of $4.2 million. First quarter revenue was impacted by moderately lower than expected product sales and approximately $100,000 related to a delay in a contract award.
The company indicated that it is targeting second quarter revenue to be $4.8 million to $5.0 million, a 20 to 25% increase over the first quarter and a record quarter for revenue. The company is targeting record product revenue in the second quarter and continued strong contract revenue.
Contract revenue was $3.4 million for first quarter 2005 compared to $2.0 million (Microvision only) for the same period last year. In the first quarter the company announced new contract bookings of more than $7.6 million including it largest development contract ever, a $6.6 million contract with Ethicon Endo Surgery, a subsidiary of Johnson & Johnson. Product revenue for first quarter 2005 was $600,000 compared to $675,000 last year. Product revenue in the first quarter 2005 was comprised of $208,000 from sales of the Nomad system and $392,000 from sales of the Flic bar code scanner.
As of March 31, 2005 backlog totaled $5.0 million of which $4.7 million was for development contracts and $302,000 was for the Nomad System and Flic scanner. Earlier today the company announced that it was awarded a $1.2 million contract by General Dynamics C4 Systems to supply 165 ND2500 Nomad systems for the U.S. Army's Mounted Warrior Soldier System.
The company reported a consolidated net loss available for common shareholders of $7.2 million or $0.33 per share for first quarter 2005 compared to $6.7 million or $0.31 per share in the same period in 2004. First quarter 2005 net loss includes inventory writeoffs of $443,000 or $.02 per share related to Nomad and the Flic scanner. The inventory write-offs are associated with product design improvements and cost reduction initiatives. The first quarter net loss also includes $622,000 or $.03 per share in noncash expenses relating to the company's $10 million preferred stock, $10 million convertible exchangeable notes and embedded derivative features. The net loss attributable to the Lumera investment was $944,000 or $.04 per share and $299,000 or $.01 per share for the first quarter of 2005 and 2004, respectively.
The company ended the quarter with $6.3 million in cash, cash equivalents and investment securities. Microvision's cash used for operations in first quarter 2005 was $5.0 million compared to $7.5 million for the same period last year. Cash used for operations in first quarter 2005 included a change in accounts receivable of $3.2 million.
Gross Margin
Contract margins were 46% in first quarter 2005 compared to 48% for the same period in 2004. Product margins were negative in first quarter 2005 primarily due to inventory writeoffs and the move to full absorption of manufacturing overhead for the Nomad system. As the company reported in March, prior to October 2004, the company classified production cost in excess of revenue on the Nomad system as research and development expense. The company expects product margins to improve from the combined effect of increased volume and cost reductions.
Operating Expense
Operating expenses were $6.6 million in first quarter 2005 compared to $9.9 million for the same period last year. Last year's operating expenses included $2.4 million related to Lumera. The change to full absorption of manufacturing overhead resulted in approximately an $800,000 reduction in operating expense in first quarter 2005.
"We had a record first quarter and are targeting a record second quarter and first half," said Microvision CEO Rick Rutkowski. "Our contract business is solidly on track. With the recent order for 165 Nomad ND2500 systems from General Dynamics, our existing product backlog and the current sales pipeline for both the Nomad System and Flic scanner, we expect to ramp product revenue to record levels in the second quarter. We also expect to book significant additional military and commercial development contracts during this quarter and next.
"We recently teamed with General Dynamics C4 Systems to pursue the Army's Mounted Warrior program, and have been awarded a $1.2 million contract to supply 165 Nomad ND 2500 Systems for use in Stryker vehicles. The Nomad systems are expected to be installed into an in-theater Stryker Brigade for operational feedback. We are also anticipating the award of an additional development contract to further enhance and refine this product toward the goal of formal qualification by the Army.
"We continue to develop great potential in the military market for use of the Nomad 2500, as well as the Nomad 2100 and related products, for both combat related applications and vehicle maintenance. We have several significant opportunities in the pipeline.
"Channel development for commercial sales of the Nomad 2100 Expert Technician system in automotive maintenance continues to be a primary focus in support of ramping product revenue. We are working toward finalizing a significant distribution agreement and one or more co-marketing agreements in the automotive service segment for the Nomad 2100 System.
"We are delighted to be among the 25 industry partners that Microsoft has identified to work with in its recently announced Peak Performance Initiative, an effort to encourage technological innovation in the four core areas in the automotive industry. The program will involve continued publication of case studies and other marketing activities that should help promote Nomad success stories to both automotive OEMs and major dealership groups.
"We are also making important inroads in factory automation and plant maintenance applications. The Nomad is currently in trial and evaluation phase with several of the world's leading manufacturing companies as a maintenance solution and as a process control and inventory management tool. Early feedback suggests that the Nomad System is delivering compelling results against target metrics.
"We are pursuing a number of new OEM and reseller channel opportunities for the Flic scanner. During the past quarter we announced a solution that connects the Flic Cordless scanner to a Blackberry device. Flic has established compatibility with a growing range of mobile data devices for field force applications including asset tracking and inventory management. We have made progress in developing channels for mobile solutions providers, retail office supplies, healthcare, and a variety of web-based ASP applications. We believe that these represent large market opportunities and we continue to believe that we will begin seeing accelerating growth in Flic revenue in the second half of this year.
"Our development of the Virtual Cockpit display has recently resulted in the delivery to the Army's Air Warrior program office, of a very high performance full-color helmet mounted display with a rack-mountable control unit.
"We continue to achieve milestones under development contracts sponsored by world leading companies in the medical, automotive, printing, and consumer electronics domain, and to make significant and measurable progress towards commercialization of several compelling OEM products to address large markets with exciting growth prospects.
"During the quarter we made highly successful deliveries of Head-Up Display prototypes to VW Audi and to a major Tier 1 sponsor of our development efforts, and we expect additional development contracts in support of Automotive HUD development through the balance of this year. We continue to make excellent progress on our development program contracted by Johnson and Johnson's Ethicon Endo Surgery division.
"Our ongoing work on display solutions for high-volume consumer electronics applications including digital cameras, portable media devices and electronic gaming systems, has led us to a new proprietary systems design that we believe will uniquely enable a very high quality cinema-like viewing experience in a compact, affordable package. We believe that this is potentially a major breakthrough and our announcement has already generated considerable interest from consumer electronics companies.
"We are excited to be teamed with General Dynamics and Microsoft to support new efforts, and are looking forward to reporting on new channel partners for both the Nomad 2100 and the Flic Personal Barcode scanner as well as ongoing developments in defense related activities. Our work with Ethicon, VW / Audi and other global leaders in the areas of automotive supply and manufacturing, consumer electronics, laser printing and gaming devices is resulting in steady progress toward new products that can result in exciting revenue opportunities to drive future growth."

Powerful additive synthesizer with low CPU usage and fast response.
Morphine is a powerful Additive Synthesizer with a logical, flexible architecture that allows you to create any sound. You can do this directly by adjusting harmonics manually or by taking any input sample and resynthesizing it into one of 4 independent voices. Additive Synthesis has been considered one of the most desirable ways to emulate real instruments or to create new sounds. However, Additive Synthesis has proved both technically and conceptually difficult to implement, requiring expensive computational algorithms and hardware. Morphine's 128 harmonic oscillator engine is fully optimized for producing a high quality, warm sound, with ground shaking bass and crystal clear high frequencies. Based on complex, full 32-bit mathematics, with no internal sampling to avoid interpolation noises so Morphine retains that 'analog' quality. The oscillators are also optimized for fast amplitude and frequency modulation response for accurate tone reproduction.
- High quality sound engine optimized for low CPU usage and fast amplitude and frequency modulation response.
- 4 Independent "Generators" per voice
- Keyboard layering with 128 unique Keyboard Zones.
- Unlimited number of harmonic "snapshots" (breakpoints) per spectrum.
- Amplitude, Detune, Panning control for all harmonics.
- Filtering and Velocity response for each Generator source.
- Highly CPU optimized, accurate Resynthesis allowing emulation of audio samples with high precision.

Evolving Economic Models for Higher Ed
Event box
Evolving Economic Models for Higher Ed
For many decades, colleges and universities counted on certain economic models to sustain them. For public institutions, that meant steady appropriations from the state and modest tuition revenue. For private institutions (leaving aside the fortunate few with large endowments), that meant a steady stream of tuition-paying students, producing enough revenue to operate the college and subsidize those students unable to pay. For public and private research universities, that meant ever-increasing budgets for federal agencies that fund scientific studies.
These days, those models are challenged as never before, with states walking away from support for public higher education, and students fickle in their choices and insistent in many cases on deep discounts off of sticker price at private colleges. And federal research funds are relatively flat and facing possible cuts.
This webinar will explore how these shifts are playing out at different colleges and universities. We will also examine strategies – some succeeding and others on which the jury is still out – to respond to these changes.
Join Inside Higher Ed editors Scott Jaschik and Doug Lederman for a lively discussion on these topics Tuesday, July 11 at 11am in the Library Fishbowl.

If you are hurt on the job, and your case is accepted by your self-insured company, or your company's workers' compensation carrier, your company, or their workers' compensation insurance company, is responsible for taking care of your medicals bills, paying your time out of work if you are written out of work, and a settlement for a permanent injury. But, sometimes an injured employees' manager, or supervisor doesn't want to report the claim to their workers' compensation insurance company. Now, just why would your boss, or supervisor make things difficult for you? Because your manager, or boss believes, or has been made to believe, that your workers' compensation claim is going to have a negative effect on them!
Tippens & Zurosky Can Help. Call Today 877-872-3580
So, what should you do if your employer won't report your injury?
Unfortunately, there are those employers that do tie in supervisor's compensation on the amount of workers' compensation accidents that occur on their shift. So, if you are hurt on the job and go to report it to your supervisor, they may see you as the one literally taking money out of their pockets, when all you are trying to do is get to see a doctor because you got hurt on the job. Some employers also use the amount of workers' compensation claims that happen on a supervisor's watch, when looking at performance evaluations, area budgets, and that particular supervisor's continued employment. Thus, it is not a surprise that some company supervisors do anything they can to prevent injured workers from filing workers' compensation claims, such as being unable to "find" any accident reports, saying they simply aren't sure how to report a workers' compensation injury, or defer to one of their supervisors.
If you run into these roadblock managers, you can certainly call one of their supervisors to report the claim. You can also email, text, or even write a written note to document that you got hurt on the job. Again, if your company will not provide medical care for you, seek the medical care you need for your on the job injury, making sure to tell the medical provider that you got hurt on the job!
Workers' compensation claims can be quite frustrating without your manager, or supervisor trying to sabotage your case! You need someone to look out for you, so call Tippens & Zurosky, so we can be your voice, answer all of your questions, and file your claim! Tippens & Zurosky has knowledgeable, experienced attorneys certified in North Carolina and South Carolina, who can fight for your rights
Please contact us toll free at (877) 872-3580 to speak with one of our attorneys for a FREE consultation.
Why should I hire an attorney?
Tippens & Zurosky attorneys are knowledgeable, personable, and have the legal expertise to represent people that have been injured in auto accidents, or hurt on the job against the insurance companies that have adjusters, attorneys and investigators working for them. We work for you!
Do you make house calls and hospital calls?
Tippens & Zurosky makes visits to homes, businesses, and hospitals, and our attorneys are also available to meet with clients on weekends.
Who will help me through the steps of my case?
Our attorneys are very hands-on and are available to answer client questions along with our well-trained and friendly staff.

Ladbrokes to create new digital marketing arm
Ladbrokes is to create a new e-commerce and digital division following a two-part deal with software firm Playtech, as the bookmaker aims to reinvigorate its online marketing strategy.
The deal, announced earlier today (March 11), will see the formation of a new e-commerce and digital marketing services operation, to be based in Israel and integrated with the company's existing digital teams in London and Gibraltar.
Ladbrokes' new team will use Playtech's software to bolster online revenues as part of the two-part agreement, which will also see the bookmaker launch a suite of casino games via a "Vegas" tab on Ladbrokes.com.
Third parties will be able to launch services on Ladbrokes' website through the tie-up, which will also see it migrate towards Playtech's download casino and poker products.
Richard Glynn, Ladbrokes CEO, says: "Ladbrokes has made significant progress over the past two years by investing in our core technology, revitalising our brand and making our customer offer more competitive.
"The next phase of this reinvigoration will see us work closely with Playtech to increase customer lifetime values through enhanced CRM."
Speaking at an IAB event hosted in November last year, Andy Lettings, Ladbrokes head of new channels, told attendees the company was a "mobile first" outfit.
"Mobile is really important because our demographic is becoming younger and we're increasingly bringing new blood into the business…the new customers that come in are not customers that come in to our shops," he said.
He further added that iPhone customers in particular provide greater value to the bookmaker and revealed plans to launch a bespoke Ladbrokes iPad app plus its ambitions of introducing NFC-based services.
Meanwhile, rival bookmaker William Hill, which is a joint venture partner with Playtech in its William Hill Online (WHO) business – the software company owns a 29 per cent stake – is said to be in the process of attempting to buy the Israeli firm out of the partnership.

Overweight beauties, middle aged gruff leading men, starched hair pieces, logic defying plots, garish costumes, mind boggling dance and fight sequences and pelvic thrusts performed with uncharacteristic gusto, all are hallmarks that define the cornerstone of Pakistani film culture that we know as Pushto films. Over the years Pushto cinema has formed an identity that is utterly unique in offering a brand of entertainment that no self respecting man would want to see with his mum and kids. It didn't use to be this way though. Earlier Pushto films used to be based around folk tales that paved the way for wholesome family entertainment. Parallel to the rise of Gandasa films in Punjab, during the 80s, Pushto films witnessed a notable dip in quality. Producers and distributors catered their products for the lowest common denominator. That is how Pushto cinema came to be what it is now. Continue reading

Obama to return early from Europe to visit Dallas after police shooting
By Bonnie K. Goodman
President Barack Obama is cutting his trip to Europe short after the worst attack on police since 9/11. President Obama made a statement about the shooting in Dallas on Friday, July 8, 2016, from the NATO conference in Poland, calling it "a vicious, calculated and despicable attack on law enforcement." On Thursday evening, July 7, a sniper purposely opened fire on police officers at a Black Lives Matter protest where 11 police officers were shot and five killed.
The White House announced the president's intended visit to Dallas early next week late Friday afternoon. Earlier in the day, President Obama ordered the flags to fly at half-staff and made a statement condemning the attack.
Speaking from Poland, Obama said, "I believe I speak for every single American when I say we are horrified over these events, and we stand united with the people and the police department in Dallas. There is no possible justification for these kinds of attacks or any violence against law enforcement. Anyone involved in the senseless murders will be held fully accountable. Justice will be done."
The statement was Obama's second in two days after police officers shot and killed African-American men in Louisiana and Minnesota. Police killed Philando Castile in Minnesota and Alton Sterling in Baton Rouge, and the incidents were recorded and posted online. The shootings sparked the protest in Dallas.
The sniper Micah Xavier Johnson, 25 was former Army reservist, acted alone and specifically targeted white police officers. Police took out the shooter. Dallas Police Chief David Brown told the public that Johnson was "upset about Black Lives Matter, he said he was upset about the recent police shootings."
Both presumptive nominees, Republican Donald Trump, and Democrat Hillary Clinton, responded to the attack in the morning and canceled their campaign events on Friday. Trump issued a statement and video condemning the shooting as an "an attack on our country" and a "coordinated, premeditated assault on the men and women who keep us safe."
Clinton's first response was on Twitter where she wrote, "I mourn for the officers shot while doing their sacred duty to protect peaceful protesters, for their families & all who serve with them. -H." Clinton later spoke at the African Methodist Episcopal Church's conference in Philadelphia.

Dozens of uniformed soldiers packed a sweltering, makeshift courtroom at Canadian Forces Base Edmonton to hear testimony Thursday from a military doctor accused of sexually assaulting a colleague.
Capt. Steven Nordstrom, 33, told a military court martial he believed the sexual encounter he had with the female colleague during a training course in 2015 was entirely consensual.
He disputed claims made by the complainant — identified only as J.L. under a court-ordered publication ban — including that he repeatedly grabbed her buttocks and genitals during an after-hours social event at a Toronto pub.
"Absolutely not true; that's not something I'd ever do," he said.
Nordstrom faces once charge of sexual assault and one of assault stemming from the incidents, which allegedly occurred in the Toronto area on Feb. 20, 2015, and March 14, 2015.
Nordstrom started as a member of the Canadian Forces in medical school 17 years ago and was posted to CFB Shilo in Manitoba in July 2013. He works at a local clinic there and is a member of 1 Field Ambulance.
In 2015, he was selected to attend a multi-week operational flight surgeon training course split between Toronto, CFB Trenton and CFB Cold Lake.
During the course, he met J.L., with whom he developed a friendly relationship. They discussed their children, swapped texts and traded jokes about an eccentric instructor. During a flight between Edmonton and Toronto during the course, he testified J.L. fell asleep on his shoulder.
J.L., who has since left the military, alleges Nordstrom sexually assaulted her during an evening social event that began with a scotch tasting at a Toronto pub. J.L. told court earlier this week that Nordstrom repeatedly touched her inappropriately, including putting his hands up her skirt.
The two later went to the Brass Rail strip club, and then back to her hotel room where J.L. alleged he undressed her, then forced himself on her, placing an arm around her neck.
J.L. fought back tears when she told court Monday that she feared for her life.
Nordstrom told a different story, saying the two had made out throughout the evening and that she led him to the hotel room, where he performed oral sex on her. They stopped short of intercourse when J.L. became upset, saying she was married. Nordstrom said he then got dressed and the two parted on "friendly" terms.
Maj. Chavi Walsh, one of the prosecutors, sought the court's permission to examine an earlier family court proceeding in which Nordstrom addressed the charges before the court martial.
Walsh told the court that an affidavit Nordstrom gave in that case did not match up with testimony he gave in the court martial.
The court also reviewed text messages sent between the two during the course.
"Credibility is a central issue in this case," Walsh told military judge Cmdr. Martin Pelletier.
Walsh added that Nordstrom earlier broke the conditions of his release by consuming alcohol at a going-away party for a friend.
The proceedings began Monday and were expected to run for five days.
Military courts operate separately from civilian courts. Military judges preside over courts martial, which are designed to deal with serious offences by service members. Courts martial have the same rights, powers and privileges as superior courts.
The Canadian Forces launched Operation Honour in August 2015 to eliminate sexual assault and misconduct in the military.

Villa Point Newport Beach Rentals
Posted by Sam Smith on Monday, January 28th, 2019 at 1:18pm.
One of the most popular to find a rental property in Newport Beach is the Villa Point community. Besides located in a secure gated community is being located one of the best locations in Newport just minutes to Balboa Island and Fashion Island shopping center. The large majority of rental properties located here are long term rentals, which is typically a 12 month rental. Doing a quick search of this community we did find one vacation rental property that is rented as a month to month rental with a one month rental period. Of course, during the summer months expect seasonal summer rates to apply which normally means that rental rates go up from the months of June, July & August.
Rental rates for one bedroom condos currently start at $2,895 a month. The rent includes trash collection and association dues which gets you all of the amenities that come with living at Villa Point. Two bedroom units currently start at $3,000 a month with two available units available at this time. Landlords will typically ask you to fill out a two page credit application which you can get from your local real estate agent, two current paystubs, copy of drivers license and a credit report with FICO scores. Some agents will also run a background and eviction check on the applicant as well. If you have a pet we always recommend including a photo of the pet as well as a cover letter to the landlord explaining who you are and why you want to rent that particular condo.
In the past 6 months, rentals in Villa Point have ranged from $2,495 to $3,850 with all of these being 2 bedroom units. Some of the best deals were those that rented for $2,495 and $2,700 a month as two bedroom units normally rent for well above $3,000 a month. Viewings of these condo rentals are by appointment only due to being located within a gated complex. We have listed the available Villa Point rentals below and would be happy to set up a rental showing for you. Give us a call at 949-444-1901 to coordinate a showing time.

Fridley at St. Anthony Thriller
A fun evening tonight with the big (and outstanding) St. Anthony band. Band of the year to this point (3 seen so that's cheating). We have the St. Anthony girls team all decked out in santa hats in the very vocal and supportive St. Anthony student section. Can't leave out the concessions either. Hot chocolate, cider, and The Czar's trifecta of Pizza, Popcorn and Pepsi. High quality operation by the St. Anthony boosters. Thanks to all of them and the rest of the St. Anthony crew for all of their hospitality tonight.
Game Time
The first half was a struggle to find offense. 9-8 St. Anthony at the 9:55 mark before St. Anthony star guard Josh Pratt gets on the board from the post via a nice high/low feed. Ericson Saye banks in a triple at 4:20 to tie the game at 15. Pratt with a baseline jumper, a drive for 2 and then a rebound and long outlet for a Karuza Cooke layup for. 21-19 St. Anthony. Jimmy Mireri with a bucket and a buzzer beater around another Pratt hoop. 24-23 Fridley at the half.
The offenses pick up in the 2nd half. After Fridley gets the first basket of the half, St. Anthony counters with 7 in a row for a 30-26 lead at 16:25. Fridley's leading scorer Jordan Halvorson held to 5 points in the first half, but he has a free throw and a pair of drives to the rack. Then Saye with the standard 3 point play off a turnover. 36-34 Fridley at 13:41. Then St. Anthony gets the high pick and roll going. Pratt finds Derek Jahner on the roll with a bullet pass for a 3 point play. Jahner on the post for 2 and 2-4 free throws. Pratt then nails an NBA 3 to conclude a 10-0 Huskies run. Halvorson breaks the run with free throws and Mireri nails a 3 at 10:20. 44-41 St. Anthony. Graig Weber for 3 to tie the game at 48 with 7 minutes left. Halvorson for 2 at 5:20 Then lefty athlete Devin Hemmerich nails a pair of jumpers. Jahner sandwiches those jumpers with a pair of free throws and a putback. 56-54 Fridley with 1:53 left. Mireri with a dangerous drive for 1 free throw with 1:15 left. Pratt counters with 3 from the top to tie the game at 57 with 55 seconds left. Fridley goes quick and misses a tough shot with 35 seconds left. St. Anthony takes time and Fridley attempts to trap out of the timeout. St. Anthony solves it and Pratt has the ball all alone on top with 20 seconds left. But the call is to give it up for him to get a pair of screens. He never gets it back and Aaron McCrossan has to take a tough shot at the buzzer. We'll go to overtime. Interesting that the Huskies took the timeout and that they had the chance to go 1-4 low with Pratt and chose not to.
In the OT, Ryan Jenkins nails a 3 and Hemmerich finds a loose under the rim and turns it into a 3 point play. 63-57 Fridley with 2:27 to go in OT. St. Anthony not going away. Pratt floats for 2, Halvorson travels and Pratt spins and banks one home with 1:35 left. 63-61 Fridley. Jenkins makes 1 of 2. Pratt finds Jahner for 2 with 1 minute left. Fridley holds and Halvorson takes a tough baseline shot with 35 seconds left that's no good. On the other end, a loose ball finds Jahner and he's fouled with 19.5 to go. After a Fridley timeout, he calmly makes 2 FTs to give St. Anthony a 65-64 lead. Fridley misses but Mireri gets bumped on the loose ball and he'll shoot 2 with 5.4 to play. Tough call as it wasn't much of a bump but probably the right call. Mireri makes both and back comes Pratt on the inbounds. He dribbles up the left sideline, gets to the top of the key area and can't get planted. His shot falls short enough that it looks like a last second pass. Fridley wins an overtime thriller 66-65.
For St. Anthony, Pratt finishes with 23 and 13 rebounds on my sheet with 10-20 shooting, 3 triples. Derek Jahner with a big 2nd half inside. He finishes with 21 points and 9 boards on my sheet. Aaron McCrossan now plays off the ball after playing point guard before this season. With the transfer of Marcus Nolen to Washburn, that takes another ball handler out of the equation. The Huskies had success with Pratt and Jahner on the high screen/roll midway through the 2nd half, but never came back to that pair despite running the set later in the game. Huskies 11-26 from the foul line counting the missed front ends of the bonus. Ouch. St. Anthony moves on to the Bethel tournament where they open with Champlin Park.
For Fridley, Jordan Halvorsen finishes with 16 pts and 7 boards on my sheet. Devin Hemmerich clutch in the last 5 minutes of regulation. He finishes with 11 points. 2 other Tigers also make double-figures. Coach McDonald will want to work on end game execution with his kids. Fridley host their holiday tournament next Tuesday and Wednesday.

This outfit was formed by Blake English (guitars, drums, bass, banjo, mandolin, vocals) and singer Tori Lund. Along with Bob "Boo" Bernstein (pedal steel guitar), Scarlet Rivera (fiddle) and Bruce Lett (upright bass), they play a brand of country music that's very retro in nature. There is a decent range here within that scope from hard rocking to mellow. This is timeless and potent. Lund's vocals are impeccable and really do form a lo of the core of the sound of this outfit.

OKIJIMA II: Seeking the Far Shore
When we entered the temple grounds there was much carpentry going on; we called into the open doorway of the priest's house next door in the compound, and a young man came out who was the son of the priest; he would be the next priest. He was now studying at a Buddhist University in Kyoto. When we began to ask questions about the Rennyo connection, he took us inside the temple, which was being refurbished, and into a side room at the front of which were three scroll altars and two long brightly colored scrolls hanging on a side wall, divided into different 'panels.' They told a story, which the young man related to us.
Back during the Muromachi Period, when civil war (in this instance, likely the Onin War) raged throughout Japan, several defeated warriors were exiled to Okijima, which was then uninhabited.
The warrior of our story, the ancestor of the fellow who was telling it to us, thus left the trappings of war behind and became a fisherman, taking a local fisherman's daughter as his wife. Sadly, she died soon after giving birth to their only son, but death did not bring an end; instead her unhappy ghost kept returning each night to breast feed the child. Her ghostly presence night after night was not only very personally disturbing to the man, but the anguished spirit of his beloved wife was unable to move on to the Pure Land, where she would be at peace.
One night in this time of misery a god visited the man in a dream and told him to await the arrival of a very wise individual, who would come to the island. Every day thereafter the fisherman went to the beach and waited. One day during a great storm, when arrivals were least likely, a boat that had been on its way to Katata across the Lake was forced to seek shelter at Okijima; the boat's passenger was the renowned Rennyo Shonin.
The fisherman invited Rennyo to stay at his house till the storm had abated; during that time he told the monk his tale. That night they waited up for the ghost of the woman to appear; when at last she appeared and reached for her infant son, Rennyo told her that to free her spirit from its earthly tether and gain entry to the Pure Land all she had to do was chant namu-amidabutsu (I take refuge in Amida Buddha). But she didn't believe him; she refused to chant, saying that she was but a woman, that mere prayers would not work for her. Rennyo assured her that this prayer would, if she'd but try it; to make it easier, he wrote it out on a scroll for her to read. She did so, over and over until her voice became a chant, under whose power she entered the Pure Land, never returning to haunt this troubled world again.
The original scroll written by Rennyo in the 'dancing tiger' calligraphic style still hangs in the temple, which that very warrior-fisherman founded as a result of these events. The young man telling us the story was the 19th generation of the family begun by that man, and the 18th generation of a boy who had been suckled by a ghost. At that point the sun suddenly disappeared behind some clouds and it got very chilly inside the unheated room.
When we went into the darkening day pondering this tale, we hadn't far to go to reach the other side of Buddha's neck; from there we walked the long walkway that traced Buddha's shoulder, pausing now and then to gaze out into the air in search of our mountains and our home, but they were not there. Where they should have been was a dense haze, beyond which might be mountains...
We walked past all the lakeside gardens to the very end of the windy pathway, and there clambered up the steep slope into the lee shelter of a grand old gnarled tree, where we sat amid the small mountainside gardens and ate our lunch, looking often into the distance for some small sign out there of where we lived, but it was all impenetrable whiteness...

Turing is generally believed to have been committed suicide following his conviction and chemical castration. However, the original inquest into his death was perfunctory and inadequate. Although it is said that he died from eating an apple laced with cyanide, the allegedly fatal apple was never tested for cyanide. Moreover, he was in an upbeat mood at the time of his death and making plans for the future - not the typical profile of a person who takes their own life.
A new inquiry is long overdue, even if only to dispel any doubts about the true cause of his death - including speculation that he was murdered by the security services.
Although there is no evidence that Turing was killed by state agents, the fact that this possibility has never been investigated is a major failing. Even if the security services did not kill him, did they pressure him and did this pressure contribute to his suicide?

The human body is a prodigious, clammy, fluid-filled machine, always mixing chemicals with high level of accuracy and coordination, producing everything from memories to mucus. Here, we can have a look of how multifaceted, beautiful or just plain mysteries of what your body can do.
Acid that can dissolve metals
Our stomachs can produce gut, a hydrochloric acid that can liquefy metals and barb steel. It cannot wear out our stomachs because it has mucous lining that is preventing it from being corroded.
The impossibility of tickling yourself
It is never possible to tickle yourself because the brain controls each and every part of your body organs thus can predict what you are going to do with it and prepare for the reactive response. For those who have very sensitive skin or body which someone called "high current", a slight touch from another person will send them shivering and screaming but, you can't do it to yourself and feel the same way.
Blue eyes
All of us are initially born with blue eyes. This is due to melanin which turns with time when exposed to ultraviolent rays to give the eye its color. So, whatever your present colour, remember you were once blue-eyed!
Bones are known for its important function of supporting the body. What is less known about them is that they are responsible for regulating calcium in the body to the extent that, if there is low amount of it some bones are broken down to calcium to boost the levels.
Cracking sounds
The cracking sounds heard when one presses the fingers toes and neck are echoes of dashing fluid from the joints. It is not too dangerous. However, one should take great care not to break the ligaments in the process of "loving to hear" your fingers snap!
Smelly sweat
No. sweat does not actually smell bad. Bacteria acting on them are the cause of the smell because of their waste products. We all have different bacteria which explain why some are smelly while others are not.
We produce 2-6 cups of saliva a day. This in a lifetime will equal to mass of saliva able to fill two large pools for people to swim in.
Blood vessels
If we could remove the blood vessels and roll them out, it would cover 60 000 miles enough to cover the earth three times!
Nerve impulses
The nerve impulse that moves to and from the brain travels in 250 miles per hour. This is the fastest speed responsible for the sharp immediate reaction we experience when we are pricked or touch with something hot.
A Quote About Your Body
"Enroll your body, soul and spirit and engage your time to do what you know best. Dedicate yourself to the work at hand and you will be rewarded by the fruits you will bear!" ~ Israelmore Ayivor, The Great Hand Book of Quotes

As one who loves books I always want to encourage other believers to read. I also like to stimulate people to begin building good solid biblical libraries. In that spirit I offer the following five recommendations for your enjoyment.
1. The Pilgrim's Progress by John Bunyan, updated by C. J. Lovik, illustrations by Mike Wimmer.
This new edition of Part One of Bunyan's classic allegorical tale is superbly done, with Lovik's updates being kept to a sensible minimum without dumbing-down the story. Lovik also provides detailed notes at the back of the book which enhance its value. Special mention must go to Wimmer, whose period illustrations wonderfully capture the events they portray. All in all, this is the best edition for all but the purist.
2. Has The Church Replaced Israel? by Michael J. Vlach.
Vlach teaches theology at The Masters Seminary and did his doctoral work on "supercessionism" or "replacement theology." This book presents his conclusions for the interested Bible student. Though the writer is in sympathy with Progressive Dispensationalism, this hardly affects his work, which is well reasoned, up to date, clear, and convincing. This is the best critique of replacement theology I know.
3. For Zion's Sake: Christian Zionism and the Role of John Nelson Darby by Paul R. Wilkinson
This is basically Wilkinson's doctoral thesis and is well worth reading. Not only because it covers the life of Darby, an important (and often misunderstood) Christian thinker in his own right, but because of its fine historical coverage of "Christian Zionism" (as opposed to Political Zionism), together with a much needed appraisal of that queer ecumenical phenomenon, so-called "Christian Palestinianism." Wilkinson has done has research well and sets it out compellingly. The one foible is his sometime lack of discrimination in citing populist dispensationalist writers as authorities where more scholarly dispensationalists might have been appealed to.
4. Presuppositional Apologetics by Greg L. Bahnsen, edited by Joel MacDurmon
Not a substitute for the author's Always Ready, which is the best introduction to presuppositionalism; this posthumous work is certainly a worthy companion to it. Geared towards an intermediate level, this book features some really good material. Worth the price of the book are Bahnsen's brilliant evaluations of Gordon H. Clark, E. J. Carnell and Francis Schaeffer, showing the big differences between their more "verificational" approach and Van Til's apologetics. NB Sadly, it seems the publisher (CMP) have allowed this title to go out of print. It keeps its place because if you see it, buy it!
5. The Bible Among the Myths by John W. Oswalt
Oswalt is the well known author of a two volume Commentary on Isaiah and is at home in the OT background material he employs in this book. His main aim is to demonstrate the uniqueness and superiority of the Biblical creation story and resulting worldview. He does this very effectively by showing how all non-biblical creation myths are immanentistic and lack a transcendent Creator God. Only in a few comments relating to the Greek philosophers is Oswalt off-base.

There are many factors that influence the cost of the premiums when you apply for an insurance policy. Two of these facts have a significant impact on insurance premiums and are applied not only to travel insurance but also motor insurance, income protection insurance, life assurance or private medical insurance.
Age affects insurance premiums:
If you have already purchased life, travel or medical insurance you probably know that age is one of the important factors that will affect your insurance premiums. It has been noticed that in some cases the insurance premiums, especially for motor and travel insurance premiums are not always proportionate to the policyholder's age.
Due to these allegations, ABI (Association of British Insurers) has entered into an non-statutory agreement with the British Government to improve insurance pricing for motor and travel insurance policies.
Since 30 June 2012 the Association of British Insures is obligated to publish information that is relevant to the use of the AGE factor in the risk assessment process for private motor or travel insurance policies.
All of the UK based insurers use relatively wide age bands when deciding the costs of premiums. These widths of the band will vary between insurers but typically they are 0-17, 18-60 and one over 60 years.
According to ABI statistics, people aged between 66 and 70 were two and a half more likely to make a claim than 21-25 year olds but the cost of the premiums were five and a half times more expensive for the 66-70 groups. The same study shows that people over the age of 81 are 4 times more likely to file a claim than medium aged groups (46-50 year olds) but the premiums costs were 7 times greater.
Gender and insurance premiums:
The other factor that effects insurance premiums for all the types of insurance mentioned above is gender. This problem has been discovered a few years ago and from 6 April 2009 the Sex Discrimination Regulations amendment has been implemented. Through this legislation the ABI can specify the conditions where insurers are allowed to differentiate pricing by gender.
Before a UK based insurer is permitted to differentiate insurance prices by gender they must base the differentiation on relevant and accurate statistical data. Another condition is that the statistical data used must be compiled, published and updated regularly accordingly to the guidance issued by HM Treasury.
Age and gender will definitely affect the premiums if you choose to purchase a travel insurance policy but they are not the only factors that make a difference. Most of the times in the price of a policy the insurer includes expenses and commission and other factors such as location, lifestyle, work places affect the premium cost.
To make sure you get the best deal and choose the insurer with the fairest pricing we recommend you use an insurance quote comparison tool. This will help you make an informed decision when buying insurance.

As Canada celebrates its birthday, there are some amazing events happening throughout the country. July 1st is always a big day for Canadians and this year is not going to be any different.
So, what is Canada Day all about?
On July 1, 1867, the nation was officially born when the Constitution Act joined three provinces into one country: Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, and the Canada province, which then split into Ontario and Quebec. However, Canada was not completely independent of England until 1982.
July 1st became the holiday called Dominion Day, officially established in 1879, but it wasn't observed by many Canadians, who considered themselves to be British citizens. Dominion Day started to catch on when the 50th anniversary of the confederation rolled around in 1917. The 100th anniversary in 1967 saw the growth of the spirit of Canadian patriotism and Dominion Day celebrations really began to take off. Although quite a few Canadians already called the holiday Canada Day (Fête du Canada), the new name wasn't formally adopted until October of 1982.
What can you do on Canada Day?
If you are looking for some great ways to celebrate Canada day, it doesn't matter where you are in the country. There will be some fireworks and other great events in your neighbourhood to look forward to.
No matter how you choose to celebrate Canada Day this year remember to join us at the upcoming Settling in Canada Online Fair. You'll learn all about the careers and government funded training programs that are available to newcomers just like you.
Happy Canada Day!
