The Travel Area is the traveling hub for players wishing to continue on to the next area, either to buy better tools or fight harder monsters. Generally, players will travel to each of the areas in order, as to buy better tools you must possess the one before it, and skipping an area and fighting monsters in the next is a death sentence.
Keep in mind that while fighting monsters in later areas will give you more gold and experience than in the previous, this does not apply to harvesting. Also, the player must always pay the travel price, regardless of how many times they have visited previously, so it is highly recommended to buy all tools from the previous area's Forge before traveling to the next.

We are aware that players place a priority on for fair play and faster queue time.
To fulfill our obligation, Homerun Clash's Matchmaking system looks for the opponents at similar numbers of trophies as players.
[Matching Level]
When winning the game and earning the matching point, the matching level goes up.
The matching point is the point that can be earned from winning 1vs1 Match.
By collecting the matching point, you can level up the matching level.
The matching point can be increased and decreased in proportion to the number of trophies.
If you lost a 1vs1 match at the stadium where you haven't got any trophy, then you won't lose the matching point.
[1vs1 Matchmaking]
For 1vs1 Match, matchmaking algorithm looks for the opponent who is on the same matching level.
If there are no players on the same matching level, the algorithm finds the opponent who is on a similar matching level.
[BATTLE ROYALE Matchmaking]
BATTLE ROYALE mode randomly gathers the players on the same channel (LIGHT, SUPER, ROYAL).
If the players and other three opponents enter the channel, the game starts immediately.

This column may read like a glowing job reference for Ann Klee.
Maybe it is. Not that she needs my help, but Klee is leaving General Electric at the end of month and she's already figuring out what's next. One thing's for sure: At an age when many people are thinking about retirement, Klee, 58, is looking for her next big challenge.
Her planned departure comes after more than 11 years in multiple roles at GE. She is best known as the conglomerate's local face. Klee headed the search for a new headquarters that brought GE to Boston in 2016 and managed the renovation of two old Necco buildings in the Fort Port Channel neighborhood that will serve as its new home.
She's the one who has worked closely with city and state officials, showed up at neighborhood meetings and events, and handed out grants to local partners that support STEM education or address the opiate crisis.
Without GE, will Klee stay in Boston? She wants to. This is where you come in. Klee is the type of talented leader Boston needs. With her resume, she can work anywhere, but she has fallen in love with us.
"It's a dynamic city," Klee told me. "I love everything that is going on here — from the economic growth and innovation culture to the food and arts scene and incredible waterfront."
Well, there is one thing she doesn't like.
"Traffic," she acknowledged, "could be improved a little bit."
Yup, she's a local, kvetching on cue about congestion.
Jeff Immelt — two General Electric CEOs ago — gets a lot of credit for initiating the relocation from the company's longtime home in suburban Connecticut, where he got tired of staring out of his corner office and seeing only deer. He wanted to be in a place where he could bump into millennials with bright ideas.
It was up to Klee to find that special location where a company more than a century old could reinvent itself. With the precision of a drill sergeant, she got the job done in seven months, crisscrossing the country and visiting potential sites.
When Klee visited Boston in 2015 with her search committee, she had a feeling our city would be the one. Committee members were intrigued by the Seaport District, with all of its construction cranes, brick warehouse buildings, and gleaming towers. When they walked over the Summer Street bridge, they sensed the vibrancy of an emerging district.
"It felt like exactly the place we wanted to be," Klee said in January 2016, just days after GE announced it would move to Boston.
Mayor Marty Walsh, for one, will miss Klee as GE's liaison.
"For me, personally, she was the consistent face of GE," Walsh told me. "Ann is for me the relationship with General Electric."
When he first met Klee, he thought she was "tough and to the point" and "no nonsense."
"I liked her style," Walsh said.
In a city where people are always coming and going, Walsh said he's glad to hear she wants to stay. "She would be a great asset," he said.
Count Attorney General Maura Healey as another Klee fan girl. In her role as head of the GE Foundation, Klee worked with Healey and other community partners to launch Project Here, an initiative that makes substance use prevention education available to every public middle school in Massachusetts.
"She really brought and put her heart into it, in addition to the resources of GE and the GE Foundation," Healey said. "She's a great leader because she understands that it's not about her . . . it's about everybody else."
Klee was one of the first GE executives to relocate to Boston, buying a condo on Fan Pier. She travels often for work, but she has really gotten to know the town, especially its restaurants.
Her favorite chef: Barbara Lynch.
Her favorite French restaurant: Bar Lyon. ("My mother was French. We grew up on French food. It has the most authentic French food.") Klee suggests the quenelle, a light dumpling made out of fish whipped with egg white. "It feels like you're eating a cloud," she said.
Her go-to after work bar: Lucky's Lounge.
While she hasn't started a search for a full-time job, she has been appointed to the board of Wabtec Corp., a publicly traded Pittsburgh company that provides equipment and services to freight and rail transit, and acquired GE Transportation earlier this year.
Klee, an environmental lawyer by training, knows she doesn't want to join a law firm. She prefers private sector over the public domain. She has operated in both, having worked a dozen years in Washington, including as general counsel of the Environmental Protection Agency in the George W. Bush administration.
She revels in details and multi-tasking. At one point, she held three GE roles at once: vice president of environment, health and safety; vice president of Boston development and operations; and president of the GE Foundation. (Three people are picking up her duties.)
Klee likes to be part of a team that builds something. She can see herself as a chief operating officer. Oh c'mon, she can be a CEO. She thinks a startup would be fun. She describes herself as "industry agnostic."
"I would love to take what I learn from GE and bring it to another company," she said. "I like taking on big problems that no one else wants to address."
Boston has plenty of big problems, and I can't think of anyone better to tackle them. Hire her.

TOWSON, Md. --- Moravian College junior Greg Jaindl has been selected the Landmark Conference Men's Track Athlete of the Week for a second consecutive week for his performance last Friday.
Jaindl set a school record in the 3,000-meter run with a time of 8:33.92 in the invite race of the Fastrack National Invitational at the Ocean Breeze Park & Athletic Complex Friday evening where he placed 18th overall and was the top NCAA Division III finisher.
"It was another good weekend for Greg," commented Director of Cross Country and Track & Field Jesse Baumann. "We knew he had a shot at our indoor 3k record this season, we just needed to find the meet where he could get into the race to do it, and the Fastrack meet was obviously that. He started to drift a little off the school record by the time he was getting into the mile to 2k portion of the race, but he found a second wind and closed some gaps to get with a good pack for the final half mile. His last 200 was in under 32 seconds, so clearly he had enough left in him and has the ability to go much faster. This is a really encouraging set up for his steeplechase outdoors too and makes me think he could flirt with the low 9:00s, possibly faster if he can get into the right race."
Moravian is slated to return to action on Friday, February 15 in the Kutztown University Last Chance Qualifier and on Saturday, February 16 in the Keogh Invitational at Haverford College.

Affirmations are occuring almost constantly in your mind.
Thoughts, ideas, pictures, values, beliefs are stored there; new ones enter all the time and are processed and stored.
We are saying and repeating them every waking, even non-waking, minute (positive, negative, self-directed, other directed, valid, invalid, and on and on and on.
Your mind, consciously and unconsciously, engages in self-talk.
What you must do is decide what YOU want these thoughts to be and what YOU want to be affirming constantly.
You can take conscious control of this process with your own positive thoughts, ie, the thoughts that are positive to you, that coincide with your own goals and wants.
It is not necessary that you identify all the self-talk, either positive or negative, that goes on in your head all the time. Your measurement of whether the right talk in going on can easily be taken by the results you are getting in your life.
If you want to change your results and outcomes, you need to change your internal self-talk. This can be done with positive statements, written, repeated and believed, affirming the outcomes you desire.
Fortunately, if you really do want to control this process, you can.
The process requires that the conscious mind communicate with the subconscious mind to let it know what it is supposed to
and do. The subconscious will do what it perseives it has been told to do, but it is very literal. It is, therefore, crucial that you speak to it so you will get desired results.
We do this with positive statements, in the present tense, by the conscious to the subconscious. We deliberately decide what to say and how to say it so as to produce our desired outcomes. (see
affirmations of a friend
It is also important to
and visualize the outcomes you desire and
they are attainable.
How do you develop the self talk that will produce the outcomes you want? As the question suggests, you must first know the outcomes you really desire.
Let's say you would like to lose some weight so you can wear that little black dress again. Create a positive image statement describing yourself in front of the mirror admiring how you look and feel in your little black dress.
I look great and feel wonderful in my little black dress again!
Can you see yourself in the mirror? Can you feel the fabric and hear the sounds the dress makes when you move around? Can you imagine going out to dinner in it? Dancing in it?
By saying and seeing and feeling and hearing and believing repeatedly and often your conscious is communicating to your subconscious that this is true and the way it is supposed to be now.
Your conscious is now doing its part by deliberatly telling the subconscuous what outocme is expected. Your subconscious will get the message and proceed to make it happen.
Depending on how complex and difficult our goals are and to what extent our past self talk created deep seated internal resistance to what we now instruct, it could take some time to see the results expectd.
Some results do seem to occur miraculously in a blink; but if you need to lose twenty pounds to be attractive and beautiful in that little black dress, you need to start affirming the result you want further in advance than an instant!
And if you want to keep the result, you must keep the positive self talk.
Affirmations work, but we cannot expect them to create something that is not possible or that you cannot believe could happen.
Remember, your subconscious is quite literal; so be accurrate, specfic, positive and present tense:
**I walk 3 miles every day
**I receive $10000 every month
**I give 10% of all I receive to charity
**I save 10% of all I receive
Affirmations are occurring constantly in your mind; you can decide and insure they are the ones you want them to be.

Jeff Koons 'Rabbit' Fetches a Living Artist Record of $91 Million
- May 15, 2019 22:54
A stainless steel rabbit sculpture by Jeff Koons became the priciest work ever sold by a living artist at auction on Wednesday. Described as "one of the most iconic works of 20th-century art" by Christie's, the 1986 piece sold for $91,075,000, with fees.
The Koons beat David Hockney's "Portrait of an Artist (Pool with Two Figures)" that set a record for a living artist just six months ago, when it sold for $90.3 million.
'Rabbit' is from an edition of three with this piece from the collection of the late media mogul S.I. Newhouse. The others are in the Broad Foundation, in Los Angeles, and a promised gift to the Museum of Contemporary Art in Chicago.
Notes Bloomberg: "The winning bid came from art dealer Bob Mnuchin, U.S. Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin's father, who was in the sales room and said he made the purchase on behalf of a client."

Fatah delegation returns from Gaza, calls meetings with Hamas "productive"
Al-Ifranji called his mission in Gaza an "ice breaking" one that would prevent factional members from "using weapons against each other." He also confirmed that the talks in Gaza were not a replacement for the 26 April talks in Cairo but rather a parallel process.
"Dialogue with Hamas has created chances to continue discussions that began in Cairo," Al-Ifranji said. He noted Abbas would be updated on the mission when he returned to the West Bank.

My best holiday wishes to you…
The little princess enjoys a quiet moment with her baby doll, during a holiday party.
It's almost Christmas, my favorite time of year, where did the time go. Every year I say it and each time I say it, ( where did the time go) it rings more true than ever. Christmas day will be here and gone before we know it and there are still so many things I want to do, holiday baking, a visit to the live nativity scene, shop for a needy family, wrap the gifts while listening to Christmas music, I could go on and on. There is still a lot to do and my week is scheduled to the brim.
Working retail during the busiest time of year is hard and requires a lot of energy and planning ahead- something I'm not always good at. Although I will be working all day everyday this week while spending an hour and a half a day on the road, I am looking forward to the sparkly energy that only the holiday can bring. This means that I may not have another opportunity to post before the big day.
With all that said I want to be sure to wish all of you the warmest, sparkliest holiday, full of all the things you've hoped for. I hope you take the time to savour every single moment. Be patient, be kind and by all means enjoy it! I'm sending my love and warmest wishes to all of you.
You mean so much to me. Merry Christmas…….
Believe in magic, wish for all things possible, dream of beautiful things to come and celebrate it all!
Love, love-jj

490 Biotech > Products
Growth Format: Adherent

Preparing for an International Adoption
I took a Gender Studies class in college that really opened my eyes to what goes on in our world outside of the US. I saw how people lived, how men treated women, how difficult it was to get healthcare, how far people lived from hospitals, how far people had to walk to find water or go to the bathroom, how many children were homeless – and it made me realize how little I knew about life and the world around me. I wondered about babies and children, and how their lives would change if they were adopted. For this reason, I was interested in looking into the challenges that adoptive families and adopted children might face if the child is being adopted internationally into the US.
A 2016 study posted in the Adoption Quarterly described some "best practices" for families planning to adopt a child internationally into the US. Whether a child is adopted at birth or adopted when they are a bit older, they will want to identify their identity. Knowing that their adoptive family is not their biological family and knowing that they were adopted from another country, coming from another culture, can make things difficult when identifying identity.
A second issue faced by families is that 'the larger society does not fully accept them [the adopted children] as Americans racially and treats them as "others,"' as addressed in the article (Chen, 2016). The article goes onto say that there might be a "different physical appearance," and " to be truly competent is to accept the reality of international adoption," and finally, "regarding social communication, adoptees and adoptive families have to deal with the public's discrimination against their birth cultural background (Chen, 2016)." I think the overall idea here is to make sure that as a family, there's no "brushing things under the rug" or ignoring something that might need to be addressed because it's being addressed by others in society. This author encouraged "acknowledgment of difference" rather than "rejection of difference." I know "rejection" can seem like a harsh word, but I think the author was getting at the root emotion. To "avoid" or "ignore" differences that others are addressing can also seem or feel similar to "rejecting" that "difference," even if that's not the intention.
"Cultural identity" is defined as an identity "including self-identification and knowledge about traditions, customs, values, and behaviors shared among members in the group and feelings about being a member of the group" (Martin & Nakayama, 1997). In order for a child to successfully identify their identity as they are growing up with their adoptive family, they should know about the customs and traditions of their adoptive family, but also be aware of the customs and traditions of the culture that they came from. According to the study, "identity develops over time and is created, in part, by the self becoming aware of its own ethnic group as well as through communications with other group members" (Martin & Nakayama, 1997, cited in Abrams, O'Conner, & Giles, 2003, p. 213; Chen, 2016). So not only is it helpful for the adopted child to be aware of all customs and traditions, but it is also beneficial for the child to be aware of their ethnic group, and even communicate with others in their ethnic group. Encouraging the adopted child and family to partake in cultural customs can be done in many ways, such as looking up and celebrating cultural events, learning the cultural languages, meeting regularly with a counselor or other families with adopted children, or speaking highly and positively about the customs, traditions, importance, and values of culture, as suggested in the article (Chen, 2016).
I feel like this study received really helpful results. I agree especially with the idea of "acknowledging differences" rather than "rejecting differences," because I think many times, feeling ignored can also feel a lot like being rejected. So the important things to remember are to be positive, be open, be communicative, talk about the topics that are the toughest to discuss, and just be the best family you can be!

Poll Shows Members Against Merger
Accountancy Age also confirm the story featured on this site four days ago ("£1.4M Wasted"), that the cost of the merger campaign has been at least £1.4M.
Money well spent!

With 53% against, 39% against and 8% undecided there is no way the Council will win.ReplyDelete

With the summary you have just given you have confirmed my suspicions about ICAEW!!!
Or did you mean to type 39% for?
Yours (quite) rudely,
- AnonymousThu Oct 20, 01:31:00 PM
From what I have seen from my peer group (newly qualified), it is more like 92% against (53 + 39) and 8% who refused to comment.ReplyDelete
It is still early days to celebrate but the merger not going through will only be half victory for me.ReplyDelete
The remaining half will be to get enough members together so that we can all propose no more merger talk for the next 20 years and even then only with prior approval by members at EGM before further time and expenditure is incurred prior to a final members vote.
The ICAEW is comprised of its members and it is the members who should be given a fair say before such fundamental decisions are finalised.
If the merger fails, then it will be ICAEW's sixth failed attempt. That should be sufficient to confirm that council and members views have always been in conflict on this subject.

Glad you got on some fish, those are good looking smallies! ...
The Susquehanna has risen again almost 2 feet and water temp dropped 2 degrees...the bite that I found over the last 2 days has evaporated...or should I say drowned and frozen. ::) :)
We all need stability...that's what my fish need...stable conditions for a few weeks...just as long as we don't get icebergs.
Have you been back out? Just wondering if the temperature dropping back down had an impact...
Have you been back out? ...
Speaking of ice, my recollection is that we wont see that until daytime highs are below freezing for a week or so. Correct?
e-mail him bill it will get there faster jf7
Water temps at Danville (just north of me) are around 36-37F.
For the next few days daytime highs are forecast to be in the mid to upper 30's.
And night time temps in the mid to upper 20's with a couple nights in the teens.
You are right...That shouldn't produce ice...but I was hoping for another water temp rise to near 40F...Accuweather shows a long range forecast for daytime temps in the mid-40's late next week...there is still hope.
I'll have to write Santa a letter. ;) ;D
I had one of the local TV stations on today and the weather forecast started. They had a shot of the river and it looked like there was ice on the eastern side. This looked like the area just above Harrisburg.
I havent been to the river lately; is anyone seeing ice?

Canadian Recycling Plant Ordered to Pay $1.33 Million in Fines, Back Wages29 September 2017
A two-year investigation into the employment practices of Canada Fibers Ltd., a Canadian recycling, company has resulted in the company being ordered to pay more than $1.33 million in fines and back taxes, the Canadian Star reports.
The City of Toronto Fair Wage Office investigation, triggered by a series of 2015 articles in the Canadian Star profiling one of the company's workers, revealed that the company owed approximately 1600 workers back wages for not paying agreed-upon rates.
This investigation underscores the need for employers to pay close attention to HR compliance requirements at the local, regional, and national levels – a complicated and time consuming task, especially for companies that engage workers across borders or in multiple geographic areas. iWorkGlobal can help employers stay compliant and avoid fines and penalties, simplifying workforce management with employer of record, independent contractor compliance, and agent of record services.

Woodlawn Theatre announces 2019 season
The Woodlawn Theatre's 2019 season holds a San Antonio premiere, a genuine classic and the return of a couple of audience faves.
The lineup was to be detailed at the theater's annual gala Saturday night. The only show that hasn't been nailed down is the holiday offering, which is now billed as "Director's Choice" and will be announced before the end of the year.
Here's what's in the works:
"Oklahoma!": Rodgers and Hammerstein's classic 1943 musical is about life in life in the Oklahoma territory shortly after the turn of the 20th century. The glorious score includes "People Will Say," "Oh What a Beautiful Mornin'" and the title tune. Feb. 22-March 17.
"In the Heights": Before Lin-Manuel Miranda cooked up his smash "Hamilton," he wrote the score for this show, which covers all the goings-on in a New York neighborhood over a July 4 holiday. The Woodlawn was the first San Antonio theater to produce the show, staging it to terrific effect in 2013. The score includes "Breathe," "No Me Diga" and "Hundreds of Stories." April 12-May 5. (Side note: Fans of the composer's work might want to create their own personal Miranda Fest: The San Antonio debut of "Hamilton" runs May 7-26 at the Majestic Theatre.)
On ExpressNews.com: 'Hamilton' is coming to the Majestic
"Disney's Beauty and the Beast": The musical adaptation of the 1991 animated film tells the story of the unlikely romance that develops between a bookworm and the enchanted prince desperate to find true love so that he can break the spell that keeps him in a less-than-gorgeous form. It was staged at the theater in 2009. The score includes "Be Our Guest," "Something There" and the title song. July 5-28.
"Dreamgirls": The 1981 musical explores the rise of an African- American trio loosely based on the Supremes and other groups that became superstars in the '60s. The score includes "Cadillac Car," "And I Am Telling You I'm Not Going" and the title song. Aug. 23-Sept. 15.
On ExpressNews.com: Guide to the big fall arts events
"Priscilla, Queen of the Desert": This marks the San Antonio premiere of the musical, adapted from the 1994 movie about two drag queens and a transgender woman as they travel across Australia to a gig at a resort in an RV named Priscilla. The pop-driven score includes such hits as "True Colors," "I Say a Little Prayer" and "We Belong. Oct. 11-Nov. 3, 2019.
Season passes, $155, are available at woodlawntheatre.org. A buy-one, get-one-free deal is available at the site through Oct. 12.

As chair of The Big Easel, I have looked at tons of art over the last few months as part of the jurying and selection process with the 60 artists who will be showing their best work this Saturday, May 8th, from 10 am-5 pm in Town Square-River Ranch in Lafayette, LA.
This process and the current very warm weather in Lafayette along with all of the coverage of the potential devastation to the gorgeous Gulf (so very close to Lafayette), has summer plans/escapes to the beach on my mind. It's no secret that blue and green are my favorite colors and it's a little too well known how much I love days on the sand and in the water. In fact, I can easily say that a perfect day for me begins and ends staring at the water, both at sunrise (though it's quite rare for me to be up that early!) and sunset.
As I studied photos that have been sent to me of pieces by Big Easel artists, some remained in my mind. I realized that all of them have a watery and breezy quality and presence and would make the beginning of a very nice collection...imagine a casual seafront condo with these pieces...take me there now, please!
For inspiration and the beginning of the room, consider this fantastic glass piece that would be fabulous on an end table illuminated by the lamp it would share space with:
James McDowell
blown glass object created at Michigan Hot Glass Workshop
then add these (3) pieces that are available at Gallery at City Club Fitness Center...the Hope Hebert large abstract above a fireplace (you need that on a winter night at the beach) and the (2) Kathy Dumesnil's on a small side wall one above the other as shown:
Hope Hebert
Abstract Acrylic on Canvas
30" x 40"
Kathy Dumesnil
Field in Harmony and Field at a Glance
12" x 12"
$275.00 each, framed
For a bit of unexpected energy, an assymetrical grouping of the next 3 pieces above the sofa would be fantastic! Kelli Kaufman's abstract on the left with Forrest Montgomery's photograph above Erin Chance Fenstermaker's abstract landscape on the right..
Kelli Kaufman
Sea Glass
Oil and Plaster on Canvas
24" x 36"
$640.00, framed
Erin Chance Fenstermaker
Abstract Landscape, 2010
Oil on Canvas
22" x 40"
$1,200.00, framed
Forrest Montgomery
16" x 20"
$150.00, framed
and VOILA! a room is built around 7 fabulous pieces of art, all by artists showing at the Big Easel this Saturday, May 8th, 10 am-5 pm--Town Square, River Ranch-Lafayette, LA.
A great way to build a collection is to start by attending art shows like the Big Easel where you are able to see the work of 60 diverse artists. It is a great way to hone your style and find artists whose work you love. I look very forward to seeing you there!

As a little kid, sometimes we want extra money to buy our favorite new game or snacks. A lot of time, our parents will make us do extra chose for a certain amount of rewards. It seems like there are not much we can do as a little kid the make money fast. However, as we get older, ideas to make money become a lot more available, partly due to the technology we have today that allow kids or teenagers to earn more money. Here are some of them.
Make Money Fast as a Little Kid
1. Lemonade Stand
This one is a classic idea of what a little kid can to earn some extra cash. The lemonade stand has always become a favorite option because it is simple and easy to do. Only need to prepare some lemonade, prepare a pitcher of water, and some plastic cups.
2. Photobooks
For little kids that love taking pictures, one creative way to make money is by creating a photo book. Start by make a couple of photobook for yourself, and then offer to take some photos for people around you.
3. Babysit
Babysitting is the answer if someone asks how to make money as a teenager. It is simple enough to do but still requires a certain amount of responsibility. However, it is better to do this work only if you enjoy being with little kids.
4. Mother's helper
This one is for the kids that are not old enough and don't want to be alone with smaller kids. In this work, the kid's task is playing with the mother's kid when she is busy preparing dinner or doing other things around the house.
5. Do extra chores
If you wonder how to make quick money in one day, then probably doing extra chores in the house is the answer. Talk to your parents and negotiate what should you do to earn an extra allowance.
6. Recycle aluminium cans
Don't just throw away the aluminium cans you get from buying soda drink. Wash them clean instead, and crush them. Collect the clean, crushed cans, and when you have gathered enough cans for you to carry, bring them to the scrap yard and sell them.
7. Cleaning up the neighbour's garden
During the fall season, leaves are scattered around in the garden and people need to make time for cleaning up. This is a great job opportunity for the kids in the neighbourhood. You can help your neighbour cleaning the garden and earn some extra cash.
8. Run errands
Another easy way to make money fast as a kid is to run errands for people around your neighbourhood. You can help people post a mail to the post office, go to the grocery store to buy something, or go the dry cleaners and pick up some laundry. Make a simple flyer so that the neighbour notice your new business.
9. Washing cars
Another work you can try is washing cars. Washing them in a car cleaning service can cost a lot of money, so you can learn how to clean it yourself and start offering your help to your parents and maybe neighbours.
10. Pet Sit
Busy pet-owners usually don't have time to take care of their pet or walk them. Offer your help for a pet-sit or walk their pet whenever your neighbours are away. It is a fun way to make money fast because you get to play with the pet and help you earn good money too.
11. Create craft jewellery
Do you have creative hands and good at making jewellery craft? If so, make some and sell them at your local craft store or fairs and bazaars.
12. House sits on vacation
People on vacation will leave their house empty. But it can be a problem if they leave them for too long. You can help them house sit their house and make sure that their house is safe and without any issues. Then, pick up their mail, packages, and newspaper, and also put their trash out.
13. Help seniors
It is a simple way to make money fast. You only need to check the elderly people once in a while or spend your time playing games or talk with them.
14. Delivering newspaper
A lot of people still read the newspaper, so help them get their daily news by delivering newspaper around your neighbourhood.
15. Trash can service
Help your neighbour to take out their trash every time they are away, and put the trash can back if it is emptied already. A lot of busy people would pay for someone to help them with this chore.
16. InboxDollars

11th amendment
There are some amendments is the USA constitution. There are total 27 constitutions and from 1 to 10 constitution are a bill of right and other amendments are about other things. The amendment is necessary when some errors or other problems are found. Usually, if the constitution does not work properly, then the amendment is necessary. By the amendment, it is possible to add, remove and fix the contract, law, legal paper and constitution. The 11th amendment is also an amendment and this amendment is found in the U.S constitution. In the coming paragraph, we will learn about the 11th constitution.
The Eleventh Amendment (Amendment XI) or 11th amendment is an amendment which was passed by the Congress. This amendment carries important clauses and rules of United States Constitution. This amendment was passed by the congress on 4th March 1794 and it started to work since 7th February 1795. In the 11th amendment, it is talked about the sovereign immunity which is an important issue for USA citizen. This 11th amendment put the place after the bill of rights (from 1st amendment to 10th amendment). This amendment will be taken care by the U.S. Supreme Court.
The text of the 11th amendment is "The Judicial power of the United States shall not be construed to extend to any suit in law or equity, commenced or prosecuted against one of the United States by Citizens of another State, or by Citizens or Subjects of any Foreign State." The explanation of the text of the 11th amendment is it is fixed that when a state can be sued and in this particular of the amendment it gives protection to the states from the out-of-state citizens (lives in a different state) and foreigners who are not living within the state borders. To sue the state, it is necessary to be a citizen of the state or living in the state boarder if he is a foreigner.
By the 11th amendment, the state becomes safe from ruling by people from the different state. It is necessary to be a citizen of the state first. The Supreme Court will maintain the 11th amendment and it was decided in 1793. According to the Chisholm v. Georgia in 1793, the court rules the federal judicial system for maintaining the authority. The court can maintain the law equity of the private citizen against states. According to this amendment, one state cannot sue to the another state if any citizen of the other state sues. If the foreigner who does not live in the state boarder cannot file a case against another state. If the case is filed properly, then the court will take action according to law. For the correct file case, the court system will hear the case of the citizen of another state who is in the local state and state of the court.
The 11th amendment does not complete of every law related to the state. In many cases, you will find it complete. There are four exceptions you will find in the Supreme Court. These four things also create a debate for this amendment. The first exception is not applicable against the state's political subdivision. The federal court can sue the cities, counties, and municipalities without the structure of the 11th Amendment.
The second except the 11th amendment is waived of the protection. The 11th amendment permits the state government to relinquish the constitutional protection from the sue against the federal consenting to a lawsuit. Suppose, any state can ignore the 11th amendment protection by the accent of the federal court to hear a legal complaint brought against it.
The third exception is permission Congress to cancel a state's Protection from being charged in federal court by passing regulation pursuant to its prosecution influences under the Equal Protection and it is for the process of the 14th amendment. In 1996, it was seen that the Supreme Court ruled against the Congress. There were many sections of filled case under different commerce clauses. There are many cases are involved and some of those are Bankruptcy laws, environmental statutes, Intellectual Property scores of other business regulations and legislation etc.
The final and last except is the permission to the citizen of any state to pursue an order against the state official. It can be the violation of the federal law. According to this exception, it is possible that citizen of New York can peruse an order in the court against the compel states. If any damage is done by the state, the state is forced to give that compensation.
Many people argue that the 11th amendment is not enough to give equity in the constitution. From a vote, it is found that 50% people agree with the 11th amendment and 50% people disagreed with the power of the 11th amendment of equity. The 11th amendment is the matter of the debate but it has not created a huge place for debate. If the 11th amendment is not enough powerful, then it needs review and after the review, it is possible to fix the problem or it may need another review.
These exceptions are good and these have also some lacking in the amendment which has created debates in the amendment. Here we will end the 11th amendment of the US constitution. We will learn about other amendments and constitution of the other countries.
There are some states where the 11th amendment was sanctioned in different times and those are New York, Rhode Island, Connecticut, New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Vermont, Virginia, Georgia, Kentucky, Maryland, Delaware and North Carolina.
The amendment of the Constitution of India is different than the constitution of the U.S. This Indian 11th amendment constitution is also called The Constitution (Eleventh Amendment) Act, 1961. This Indian ament is talked about the election of the parliament. This amendment was passed on 5th December 1961. This amendment was introduced by the Ashoke Kumar Sen.
The 11th amendment of the Ireland is also known as the Eleventh Amendment of the Constitution of Ireland. This amendment was approved in 1992 of 16th July. That is why, this amendment is also known as Eleventh Amendment of the Constitution Act, 1992. This amend is used for ratifying the changes to finding treaties for the Europe Union.
Sometimes, it is very difficult to understand the amendment or law of constitution and it is necessary to understand if you want to get benefit from the court and you want to get your right. If you cannot understand the constitution and amendment alone, then you must take help from the experts or you can visit other websites where you will find it easy.

Student Blog – A Call to Health Promoters across the Globe: We need to be Avid Listeners
July 14/2017
DLSPH Student Blog
By: Nadia Fazal, Social and Behavioural Health Sciences PhD Candidate; Collaborative Specialization in Global Health
If we believe in health promotion then, I would argue, we also need to believe in supporting the voices of local communities to be heard and recognized. If we believe in equity as a core value of health promotion, then this means supporting the voices of those who are typically unheard as a priority.
As a health promoter, it is precisely these beliefs that led me to pursue my doctoral research about the role of the arts in promoting health in Goma, Eastern Congo.
The Ottawa Charter (1986) defines health promotion as the "process of enabling people to increase control over, and to improve, their health." It highlights the importance of strengthening community action to promote positive health and well-being. It emphasizes the importance of developing community capacity, which at its very core, recognizes the need for local individuals and communities to put forward their own talents, share their own stories, define their own problems, and identify their own solutions.
If we have a genuine desire to support the strengthening of community action and community capacity, then our first role as health promoters should be to listen. We need to acknowledge our relationship to those whom we are listening to (including aspects of power dynamics, race, culture, gender, educational training, socio-economic status), ask questions, and then listen some more. We need to be humble and recognize our place in working alongside communities to achieve their goals as opposed to leading a project that is divorced from community objectives and desires. To me, this is what it means to be a health promoter.
As a health promoter, global health practitioner, and artist, I have turned to the arts in my pursuit to listen and support the communities I work with. The arts — including dance, music, painting, theatre, and film — can be a powerful vehicle for individuals and communities to express their own stories and perspectives. I have certainly found this to be the case in Goma, Eastern Congo, where I have been working for much of the past six years.
While pursuing my doctoral research in Goma, I have chosen to work alongside local artists. These artists are expressing themselves creatively and nonviolently to share their perspectives; they are using their freedom of expression to highlight the agency of Congolese citizens to create positive change; and, they are speaking out against the social and political injustices happening in their country (that are not only to do with corrupt "African" politicians and warlords, but also to do with a complex colonial past and current international priorities and vested interests). I have been doing my best to listen.
As part of my PhD research, I created a film about the role of the arts in Goma, and the agency, power, and responsibility of these artists to create positive social change in Eastern Congo. The title of the film is Kwa Nini Art?, which means Art – For What? I chose film as a medium because it can cut across social, cultural, geographical, economic, age, gender, and language barriers to encourage a diverse and wide audience to listen and pay attention.
As someone who is not from Goma or Eastern Congo, I acknowledge that my understanding of the role of the arts in this context is — and always will be — framed from an outsider's perspective. As a critical qualitative researcher in the social sciences, I acknowledge that my voice is implicit in the film's narrative (i.e. I decided the focus, who was included/excluded, which content was edited in/out; whose voice was prioritized and framed in a positive/negative light); and, as is the case with any research study, what is presented in this film are my interpretations of the stories of these artists. I also understand that this was all part of my role as a global health promoter, analyst, and filmmaker: I asked questions, listened, asked more questions (including those about my own positionality), and listened again. I analysed, I interpreted, and now — through my film — I want to share the meaning I have made.
I challenge all of us working in the field of public health and health promotion to more fully prioritize the voices and perspectives of the local communities we work with, particularly those who tend to be neglected, unheard, and undervalued. First and foremost, it is our responsibility to be avid listeners.

Secant Bored Pile Wall
Home > What We Do > Earth Retaining Structures > Secant Bored Pile Wall
Secant (tangent) piles are interlocking piles that form a continuous watertight wall. A continuous reinforced concrete guide wall is constructed to pinpoint the location of each overlapping pile. Piles are spaced a distance which is a little less than one pile diameter. The exact spacing depends on construction tolerances.
Alternate piles (known as "female", "intermediate" or "primary" piles) are drilled inside temporary steel casing and constructed without reinforcement using a slow setting concrete. Temporary casing is extracted while the concrete has not fully set and heavy casing is then driven into the intervening pile location cutting into the fresh concrete of the adjacent female piles. The "male", "secondary" or "king" piles are then promptly drilled. The male pile steel cage reinforcement is inserted and structural concrete is poured adhering to the female pile concrete on either side to form a watertight continuous wall.

My bracelet dates back to around the time my mother spontaneously opened a wool shop. It had been a turbulent time for Mum and I. My dad had moved out and my sister had gone to live with her now-husband. The wool shop was a short-lived enterprise, but I suspect she just wanted a distraction. The two of us were left in our big house alone, rattling around. The house had never been my mum's choice. She's an artist – she loves old and unique buildings, and so, now empty of the formerly fond memories of building a family there, she hated our home.
The shop was in a more rural part of Lancashire, half an hour from town. Mum didn't mind the commute, as she enjoyed looking with envy at the cute cottages past which she drove. There was one house in particular that she labelled her dream-house. It was pretty weird to be honest. Imagine you're by one of the canals in Amsterdam – lined with those tall, narrow houses with dramatic gables; now imagine they have knocked down all the houses but one, and shoved a cottage on either side. Now plonk that peculiar threesome onto a road side in semi-rural England. It would look pretty weird, wouldn't it?
The house was for sale, but we weren't really in a position to buy. It was then that the wool-shop came into its own – not through any formidable moneymaking, but because it had become a new gossip-central for the middle-aged women of the village. Soon we came to know the owner of the house, who actually owned a jewellery-making studio nearby. Flattered by Mum's adoration of her house, she agreed to rent it to us.
The cellar of the house was accessible by a badly sealed hatch in the living room, from which mice would poke out their noses and creep out. Being totally enamoured by the house, Mum insisted that the mice were respected residents. It remained this way until the landlady warned of infestation, and several humane and Nutella-filled traps were soon strategically positioned.
Many of the most sad and difficult days of my adolescence are dominated by the happy memory of morning mouse-runs, taking any suspiciously heavy and wriggly traps to a field about a mile away. No matter how slowly I opened the little door, the mice would run out so fast that I could hardly see them. Mum doesn't live there anymore, and though she is much happier now, the Mouse House is a fond reminder of how we made the best of things on our own. She had this bracelet made by our old landlady as a gift to take with me to university. It always makes me smile.

A colleague recently made an Arduino-based thermometer to measure how hot it gets in the office. I thought I'd recreate and document the project with the components I have at hand
The circuit is based around the TMP36 temperature sensor. It's cheap, easy to use and doesn't require any external calibration. The voltage output is linearly proportional to temperature in degrees Celsius, making the conversion easy to calculate.
Any Arduino or microcontroller having at least one analog input pin can be used to make the reading. Finally, some form of display is required. This could be a 7-segment display, a character LCD or even an OLED display.
I'll be using an Arduino Micro combined with a small OLED display.
The resulting circuit is the following:
The temperature sensor can be used without any additional libraries, the analogRead() function and some math will do the trick.
The OLED display however, requires two libraries:
The completed code looks as follows (comments in the code for explanation):
Now I finally know how hot it is in my room ... Outside temperature is not bad either
As requested in the comments, I have made an updated version of the above project. It includes a button to toggle between degrees C, F and K.
All temperatures are calculated, and a button connected to an interrupt pin is used to toggle the displayed value.
The updated code:

A wonderland of chocolate maltiness, this chocolate porter is full-bodied and hefty, chocolate being added to the maturation process for a richly authentic taste. The Nelson Sauvin hop is a mash up of grapefruit, kiwi and passionfruit flavours, combining with the dark malts and mocha taste for a tangy lift to this richly satisfying stout.- Learn more about Thornbridge
2005 saw the birth of Thornbridge brewery which now produces a mixture of traditional beers and modern experiments from two different sites. The original brewery focuses on old school ales, inspired by heritage and using barrel-ageing techniques for well rested, premium results.

Bonsai for future generations
Bonsai & Yamadori from Tony Tickle
It's so important that we make locally grown material for bonsai as we know that it will thrive in our climate and that we make provision for future generations of bonsai enthusiasts.
I have been taking cuttings for over ten years, some take but many do not. I have a parent Itoigawa plant that I have used and have taken over 100 cuttings from this. Once the cutting have reached three growing seasons I introduce movement into the small trunks with copper wire, I also pot on into larger pots, usually shohin pots.
After another three growing seasons they are ready to move on to larger pots and so continue. Some of the cutting are used to graft onto older junipers that are having their foliage changed.
Another aspect of providing for future generations is (if suitable) I replace yamadori collected with a young tree of the same species into…

Hawthorn Progress
I am pleased with the progress of this informal upright hawthorn. I have deliberately potted it into a deep pot to allow better root development and improve ramification.
The tree is growing well this season and to date this year I have only pinched back a few leading growth tips on twigs that have thickened enough. I intend to give it its first real trim in a week or so and this should help further ramification.
In time this tree will get a much better pot.

Juniper Squamata First Styling
Today I carried out the first styling of a Juniper Squamata, which was dug from my garden 3 years ago
The next 2 photographs are a reminder of how it looked immediately after it was removed from the ground
This is how it looked after the removal of some branches and a re-pot in 2016
This is how it looked at the start of todays work, the top has filled out well in the past year. I have decided that this side will be the future front of the tree. As I looked at this image, I felt that the top of the tree was too straight and there was more foliage at the top of the trunk than I needed to complete the image I was aiming for.
This is how it looked when the work was completed. The foliage was removed from the top of the trunk and…

Hi friends! I hope you've been having a beautiful and eventful summer so far. I type this little blog post from the comfort of a king sized bed in the middle of Seattle, almost a dozen hotel ice buckets surrounding me, filled with fresh flowers. This summer has been an absolute whirlwind of busyness but it's been a good busyness. A filled to the brim type of hustle that has enlightened me in more ways than I could ever imagine. The rest of my summer is filled with three more incredible events, some big editorial projects, a few speaking engagements, much needed time away with Andrew, and of course lots of fun little surprises tucked in a long the way. But first, I wanted to check in and say hello and let you know there are a few posts coming soon to the blog including a special giveaway in the next few weeks (and the full post from Ellen and Pat's Grand Rapids downtown market wedding coming soon). Remember to make a little time for yourself this summer to just relax and be present in all that's going on around you.
I just adore this photo of Ellen and Pat from their May 2nd wedding captured perfectly by Bradley James Photography. Guys, I loved this wedding and the simplicity behind planning, designing and executing it all in less than 12 weeks. I think you'll love it as much as I do when I share the entire event. Happy Friday, friends xoxo

Genachowski: FCC Began Comcast/NBCU Review March 5
The FCC did not begin its review of the Comcast/NBCU deal
until March 5, according to FCC Chairman Julius Genachowski.
According to prepared testimony for a Senate Commerce
Committee hearing March 11 on the proposed deal, the chairman
said that while the FCC received the transfer application--for NBC station
licenses--and public interest statement on Jan. 28, the company asked the
commission to wait until it had submitted "a supplemental economic
report," which he said the FCC got last Friday. He said the FCC will soon
put the deal out for public comment.
Genachowski said a staff-level review has begun. The
chairman said he has instructed that staff look at past mergers and see
"with the benefit of hindsight, what the FCC did right, and where the
agency could have done better."
The FCC will conduct the review in consultation with the
Justice Department, which is conducting its own, separate, antitrust review of
the deal.
The chairman could not discuss any details of the review
since it is currently before the commission.
Senate Commerce Committee Chairman John Rockefeller
(D-W.Va.) said he recognized Genachowski and Christine Varney of Justice could
only talk about process, not the substance of the deal.
The chairman's testimony was primarily an outline of the
FCC's statutory responsibility in reviewing transactions, including insuring
competition, diversity, localism and a "deep respect" for the First
The television industry's top news stories, analysis and blogs of the day.

They think they can.
I'm not an eco-perfectionist, and I'm not going to pick on WalMart. We've all heard it before, and they must be doing something right because millions of people still work there and millions of people still shop there. However, I think even the most devoted WalMart shopper would balk at calling them green.
Consider: nothing gets to a WalMart without being carted over thousands of miles of blacktop. That's if it didn't have to be flown here before hitting the trucks. That $4 t-shirt may have more miles under its belt than Ferdinand Magellan.
Consider: undercutting local companies until they die away, then jacking prices up once there is no alternative is the WalMart policy. It's not an accident--it's how they operate.
Again, I'm not hatin'. Obviously millions of people approve, and that is their business. However, Wal-Mart is now trying, at least superficially, to 'go green'. They offer a range of 'green' products. Okay, I don't know exactly why a plastic bottle of toxic cleaning chemicals is now green--maybe that's its actual color. WalMart also is stepping into the realm of organic cotton products and other popular green accoutrements. It doesn't make them green; it makes them aware of the issues of their times.
However, they are actually leading the green movement in one arena: labeling. The way some stores label healthy choices, WalMart is going to start labeling green(er) choices. I don't know exactly what will make something a 'green' choice among the many choices in those crowded aisles, but if it gets more everyday people to buy into environmentalism, I guess it can't hurt anything.

Can WalMart Ever Be Green?
