There is an exciting line-up confirmed for this year's Rics North Rural Conference being held in Hexham soon.
A host of land, legal, housing and agricultural experts will speak at the event including John Roberts, deputy director of CAP direct payments policy at Defra, who will talk about the latest changes to the CAP and the impact of the reform for the region's agricultural professionals.
Robert Atkinson and Neil Robson, partners at Ward Hadaway, will address case law and legal updates for rural and land professionals, while Monica Burns, regional manager at the National Housing Federation will discuss how more affordable rural housing can be delivered across the region.
David Coulson, partner at Addisons Chartered Surveyors, sits on the Rics' Rural Professional Group Board and is chairman of the annual conference.
He said: "It gives me great pleasure to chair the Rics North Rural Conference. I look forward to seeing many of our local rural professionals there. We have a very topical programme this year with some top-quality speakers, so those who work in the agricultural sector will certainly benefit professionally from attending."
Other speakers include Andrew Sheridan, senior forestry consultant at Lockhart Garratt, who will address the marketing and opportunity of trees, while Charles Cowap, principal lecturer at Harper Adams University, will speak about best practice guidance for eco-systems and opportunities in sustainable delivery.
An overview of land and property as an investment will be provided by Jason Beedell and James Reynolds of Smiths Gore, with Darren Edwards, partner at Fisher German, finishing the day with a talk on overcoming and managing the challenges of a renewable project on an estate.
The Rics North Rural Conference is being held on Tuesday, October 22, from 9am-4.30pm at the Best Western Beaumont Hotel in Hexham.

Monochrome Nightmare – Wind
The debris was picking up in the wind, and the sound was becoming louder. My sound in my head was so loud I could no longer hear anything else. When she began screaming I caught only the faintest whimper on the edge of hearing. She grabbed me and screamed that she had seen them, but when I looked I saw nothing. She said they were coming for us and we would have to run or die here. I could hardly forma thought with this pulsing sound of blood rushing in my ears and could only follow her.

"It was a stupid mistake," said Kara, "and I feel like an idiot."
Abby raised an eyebrow and passed her a plate of chocolates and a box of tissues. Kara absently ate one of the chocolates without really noticing the flavour.
"I would have been fooled too," said Temperance, taking the plate and choosing one a little more carefully.
"Of course you would, sweetie," said Angela, "you're kinda insulated from some things. Thing is, though, you don't have super-strength and super-speed, it probably wouldn't matter. Kara needs to be a little more careful."
"The trouble is, I had plenty of time to check. I spotted that... that... that place and watched it for nearly an hour, getting angrier and angrier as I saw how the people... the inmates... were treated. I could have phoned my cousin a dozen times. He would have known... most of the people I know would have known."
"Even Batman?" asked Abby.
"Especially Batman. Even if he hadn't, he would have checked the GPS coordinates and hacked their computers in about thirty seconds."
"That fast?"
"He's Batman."
"Reminds me, tell mister terrific that he needs better air filters in his lab; the last set of samples you brought me from Gotham was contaminated with bat fur, bat droppings, and bat DNA."
"And can I just say 'Ewww'?" said Angela. "That's gross."
"I'll pass it on. But he would have known, Superman would have known, I don't even dare talk to that guy in New York because I know what he's going to say..."
"Guy in New York?" asked Ziva, coming back from her kitchen with coffee and mugs.
"John Hancock," said Angela. "Yeah, I guess he would have been a little crude about it, the guy pushes people's heads up their asses."
"I've got a dozen protest groups who want my head, a dozen more that think I should have killed everyone involved, razed the site, and sown it with salt, and a witch in Rio who's offering to erase everyone's memory so that I can pretend it never happened. There are probably hundreds more I haven't heard from yet."
"It'll pass, sweetie," said Angela. "Give it a week and someone else will screw up, or something else will grab the headlines."
"Sure it will," said Abby.
"On TV, with an audience of millions? I don't think so..."
"Especially on TV," said Ziva. "Believe me, if there is one thing TV is not short of it is idiots."
"I wish I could," said Kara, "but I have a feeling that I'll never hear the end of it."
"Look, sweetie, I admit you did kinda screw up. But nobody got hurt, you fixed things up once you knew you'd boobed, and you'll know better next time. Give it a while and most people will let it go."
"And the ones that don't," said Ziva, "should maybe be introduced to your New York friend."
"You know," said Temperance, "I'm feeling hungry, and I think the baby is too." She patted her abdomen. "Did we ever decide what we want to eat?"
"Didn't we say Japanese?"
"That's right. I know a great place in Tokyo... would you mind, Kara?"
"If you can phone through the order I'll pick it up."
A few minutes later Kara was on her way. Abby waited a minute, then said "Okay, Ziva, we've got about fifteen minutes before she gets back. Let's see it again. The disk your father sent is much clearer than the CNN footage."
"It's still the same event," said Ziva, with a note of disapproval, "and while it is admittedly funny, I feel that we are being disloyal to our friend."
"Just once more," said Angela. "I want to see that guy running into the pool again, and the cameras exploding."
"Okay," said Ziva, "but this is the last time."
She dimmed the light and loaded the DVD, and they watched again as Kara demolished the Big Brother house and freed its occupants...

Currently Reading: James Michenors' Carribbean. I loved Hawaii and Centennial, but could never take an interest in Texas. I'm on chapter 3 and loving it!
E-Book: I absolutely loved Jan Scarbough's A Man of Her Own! I highly recommend this one...I couldn't take my eyes off the screen and kept scrolling! Good job, Jan...I'll have to check out your other books as well! Next up: Ginger Simpson's Prairie Peace. I forgot to mention this earlier; I was one of the winners in her impromptu contest last week, and she sent it to me. Don't think I'll be able to get to it until Monday, so keep checking back!
Remember the earthquake last week? We've been having aftershocks; mainly in the middle of the night.
We just had another slight tremor. This time I thought the dog was behind my chair until I noticed the lamp swaying back and forth! This is freaky...
Preparations Continue
We know approximately when everyone is arriving tomorrow; we've decided to order pizzas in the afternoon, so there is no mad rush at any restaurant. Rehearsal was last night, and my son has warned me that the Bishop 'uses a mop to fling the Holy Water' at the congregation. If I don't wish to be drenched, I'd better sit as close to the far edge, away from the center aisle, as possible...
Have to take my daughter to the doctor for a sore throat; when we get home it will be 'Operation Clean-Up'...detailed dusting, vacuuming, and shining up the bathroom and kitchen floors. Fun, fun...Maybe next week things will settle down and my urge to write will return? I did a word count last night and realized everything I've written the past two weeks will need to be revised. The story is moving too slowly. Time to speed up the action! I just either need to give up sleeping or move out of the house for a couple of days...but I don't think the kids would go for that option!
I'll figure it out.

As well as the Samsung Galaxy S10 range and foldable phone, the Galaxy Fold, Samsung unveiled a new power accessory during its Galaxy Unpacked event tonight. And we have some pictures of them both right here.
Found and originally posted by WinFuture, the leaked images served as a teaser for the real deal Samsung launched officially.
The Wireless Charger Duo Pad is similar to the one released last year, except the pad on the left doesn't double as a stand.
It does, however, looks to have Fast Charge 2.0 this year instead. According to Best Buy's product listing, the left, larger panel delivers 12W of power. This should ensure fairly rapid charging for the forthcoming Samsung Galaxy S10 handsets.
This larger, faster side is compatible with all of the Galaxy S10 series phones announced at the Unpacked launch event, as are any wireless chargers with 10W+ output.
A smaller wireless power pad on the right-hand side is designed for smaller wireless charging devices, like the newly announced Samsung Galaxy Active, previous gen Galaxy and Gear watches and even the new Galaxy Buds wire-free earphones. Again, according to Best Buy's product listing, it delivers up to 7.5W charging.
As well at the Charging Pad, Samsung was rumoured to reveal its own Wireless Power Bank.
It works like many other power banks, with a capacity of 10,000mAh - enough to charge a phone two times or more. It can deliver 15W of power through a USB-C output but also has a Qi charging pad on the front to transfer up to 5W of power wirelessly.
Both devices are expected to be officially unveiled at Galaxy Unpacked. You can watch it live from 7pm GMT right here.

Past Life Regression therapy has been developed since the 1950s by psychologists and psychiatrists but it gained momentum only after Dr. Brian Weiss popular book "Many Lives Many Masters".
According to the certain studies back in the 2nd century BC, the Hindu scholar Patañjali, in his Yoga Sutras, discussed the idea of the soul becoming burdened with an accumulation of impressions as part of the karma from previous lives. Hence, he named the process of Past-Life Regression as Prati-prasav which means "Reverse Birthing" as it addresses present life problems through memories of past lives.
Past Life Regression therapy has spun out of the belief system of reincarnation, where one has had certain experiences and incidents in a certain lifetime resulting in a lot of emotional baggage and wounds. According to the theory of reincarnation, one may carry this baggage forward in rebirths until they are resolved and moved to clarity and understanding.
This therapy is not accessible to a common man but it is conducted by the well-trained facilitator who helps people undergo the process.
I met one of them a few days back while I was attending the Parenting meet in our regional circle.
Soul Grounding
Meet Honey Dhaliwal, founder of Soul Grounding: Chandigarh's first meditation studio. She holds an experience of 18 years in guided meditations, counsellings and readings.
At Soul Grounding, Honey first studies about the person's history and current life problems. She recommends Past Life Regression session only if they see that the client is really stuck in their life and there are certain problem areas which are not letting the person function normally in their day to day life.
Many times after a few initial talk sessions, she figures out that the issues might not necessarily lie in the past life. She then introduces other modalities which can be done and might help the client to heal better.
Honey believe that Past Life Regression is a very sacred arena and it's far hidden from our awake state for some deep reasons. Hence she dwells into it only when it's utmost important or other modalities would not be helpful.
Only when she feels that the person's anxiety radar is too much that they do not have any control over it, she performs Past Life Regression therapy.
Past Life Regression therapy session by Soul Grounding
The technique involved in Past Life Regression therapy sessions is a series of questions and answers along with deep meditation. During this process, the client is in a semi-awake state and is fully aware of its surrounding but the mind is in the state of hypnosis.
During the sessions, the information provided by the client is in the form of small sentences or even a monologue which is noted and put together. Some of the incidents that are narrated by people during their sessions have already happened in the past, which are confirmed by various historical facts.
Honey also has experienced something which is surprising to us as a common man. In few of the sessions, people narrate the incidents they themselves are unaware of. Those incidents have occurred in their family but they get to know it later from their extended or elderly family members.
Many people come to Soul Grounding studio out of sheer curiosity. Many are keen to have this spiritual experience. Then there are many who are in pain and looking for a reliable solution to their problems in life. These are the people who want to know the source of these unexplained issues and want to settle once and forever.
Honey takes Past Life Regression sessions at her studio Soul Grounding in Chandigarh. In case you are keen to unlock wonders and secrets of your past that are poking your present, get in touch with her at – www.facebook.com/soulgrounding

It is predicted that by 2020 Generation Z will make up 33% of the global population and their attitudes and behaviours will significantly shape the future of branding and retail – particularly when considering the topic 'sustainable brands'.
The 'Pivotal Generation' are said to be turning away from the common attitudes, beliefs and behaviours of older generations and becoming increasingly aware of global issues and taking landmark preventative steps to help shape the ecological landscape.
With sustainability becoming the buzzword of 2019 we find ourselves living more consciously and collectively making an effort to adopt a more eco-friendly attitude.
From the high-street retailers to high end designer brands and online e-commerce we are seeing an increasing number of brands immersing themselves into a more sustainably driven way of trading. With the fashion industry using 1.5 trillion litres of water every year and contributing 10 percent of global carbon emissions, it's the largest polluter after the oil industry. Fortunately, eco-friendly clothing brands and those changing their attitudes have come a long way in terms of sustainability and style. Here are three brands making an impact and spearheading the market:
ASOS | The Responsible Edit
Online retailer ASOS have recently announced a new 'Responsible Edit' feature which allows customers to filter their search for more environmentally conscious goods.
The filter, which can be applied to your search will reveal items that have been sustainably manufactured from either recycled products, 100% organic cotton, paraben-free or have been made by hand to reduce water usage and exert less waste along the way. The edit promises sustainable products without compromising on style.
H&M | Better Cotton
Well known high-street retailer H&M have recently topped the sustainable cotton sourcing ranking. The brand impressively sources over 75 per cent of its cotton as Better Cotton, a cotton produced by licensed Better Cotton Incentive (BCI) farmers.
BCI, a global organisation, produces cotton by licensed farmers in line with an ethos that aims to promote measurable and continuing improvements for the environment, farming communities and the economies of cotton-producing areas.
Much like the ASOS Responsible Edit, H&M have adopted a 'Conscious' Collection containing products with at least 50% recycled materials, organic materials or TENCEL TM Lyocell material.
In addition, they offer a garment recycling service launched in 2013 which aims to prevent unwanted clothes going to landfill. They accept unwanted clothes by any brand, in any condition, and in exchange they offer a £5 /€5 voucher to use towards your next purchase.
Prada | The Devil Wears ECONYL
It's not just mainstream brands reacting to the sustainable shift in the market; fashion house Prada have launched their Re-Nylon project. They have partnered with textile producer Aquafil, who manufacture ECONYL, a material that can be numerously recycled without losing quality, from plastic waste from oceans and fishing nets as well as textile fibre waste. The designer brand plans to make all of its nylon products from ECONYL by the end of 2021 and recently announced they will stop using fur in product design from 2020.
With clothes accounting for half a million tons of non-biodegradable microfibres reaching the oceans every year an increasing number of brands are taking a stand to champion the way in sustainable sourcing. This fundamental shift in consumer trading is needed to make the move away from fast fashion and highlight a brand's true purpose and values.
At Mynt we promote sustainable materials within our design concepts as well as eco-friendly manufacturing processes. For advice on how to inject sustainable finishes and concepts into your brand's physical environments, please feel free to get in touch.

How fast does it resync to 240p/480i changes of some games? (Final Fantasy)
Re: Retro Scaler A1
I don't have proper measurements, but on my CRT it's about 1 second including my reaction time in the Dreamcast 240p test suite.
It only does line-doubling, so 480i content that is 'high-res' flickers.

25 years after Roop Ki Rani Choron Ka Raja was released, Satish Kaushik wrote an emotional post taking blame for its failure which was the reason why Boney Kapoor went bankrupt and Sridevi had to sell a lot of her assets to help her husband clear her debts. Satish Kaushik took over as the director of the movie after it was delayed and Boney left it mid-way. Though extravagant with high end action sequences, the movie did not do well on the box office but there is a lot of interesting trivia associated with it.
Did you know? It is the only movie during the early nineties that was made on a budget of whooping Rs 10 crore while the other movies at that time were made at a shoestring budget of Rs 2-3 crore. Another interesting thing to note is that Boney did not spare any expense to make sure that the film is presented well and its production quality is top notch. He tied up with the number one magazine at that time and distributed free audio cassettes with every copy. He also tied up with brands and merchandised the movie on a massive scale. There were about nine different products like water bottles, dolls and other consumer goods with the movie logo and branding. This was totally unheard of during that time. Moreover, the premier invite of the film came as a fancy key. It read, "This is your key to the most awaited, most glamorous, most exciting event of the decade." The seat numbers too were attached to the back of the key. Too bad the film flopped but Anil Kapoor's action helicopter scene and Sridevi's acting stood out.
Also, interestingly the film also had AK Hangal in it but his parts were chopped off from the movie and the scene in which he is seen, his face is not visible. Shiv Sena, which in its full glory, had branded Hangal as their number one enemy as he had participated in the Pakistan Day celebrations in Mumbai after the Hindu-Muslim riots. Hence to avoid political trouble, Boney made sure Hangal's name was out from the credits of the film and his presence in the movie was not too obvious.
Boney immediately produced Prem which was a debut film of Tabu after Roop Ki Rani Choron Ka Raja. The film starring Sanjay Kapoor too tanked at the box office.

Sara Kendall – You Don't Own It
Sara Kendall is back with her dark new song "You Don't Own It". Sara's voice is sultry and understated, getting under your skin in the verses and delivering a killer falsetto in the choruses. The production is sparse and spacious, creating a dark atmosphere thick with heavy air. There's something cinematic in the way this track builds that's patient and gripping.
This is a powerful new track from Sara Kendall's upcoming EP "Comply" and a intense introduction to the EP's themes of taking ownership.
In her words:
"'You Don't Own It' is an unapologetic telling of situations where I have been objectified as a woman. It's a firm call out and empowering stand against it. It's standing up for myself instead of wallowing in past events where I have felt wronged or damaged from. I wanted to look at these same experiences and reflect upon them with a different lens than I had previously. Resentment and liberation from it can coincide and exist together in unison." -Sara Kendall

When Cherry Mobile teased Omega almost two months ago, mobile enthusiasts immediately searched for the similar or closest model they can find of Omega. The top choice was Zopo ZP900 Leader and it spread like fire considering the good specs the ZP900 Leader have.
Cherry Mobile teased that the Omega will be available on December 2012 but there was nothing, their marketing team even removed Omega's photos from circulation and fans wondered if it was a silent "they'll eventually forget about it" strategy.
Until a few days ago when Cherry made an announcement of the unit and it wasn't as fans expected it to be, sadly.
I for one was disappointed with the specs of Cherry Mobile Omega. I admit it is unfair because I already had a set specs in my mind and built my enthusiasm around it. However, it is hard not to forget that because of the hype, that is now obvious, went out-of-control.
You can check the unofficial specs and official specs on my earlier post about the announcement of Cherry Mobile Omega. There you will find the difference between the overhyped specs and the actual one.
With that said, I made a comparison of Cherry Mobile Omega and my|phone A919 Duo. The latter was my|phone's first entry into the phablet category, and was on Christmas sale for only ₱7,990, down from it's SRP of ₱9,490.
My suggestion? Go get my|phone A919 Duo, forget about Cherry Mobile Omega. I know you can save and produce the price difference of ₱1,291 or ₱2,791 (based on sale price and SRP respectively). It is worth it.
I bought A919 Duo a week before Christmas of 2012 because I started to doubt Omega, and I can tell you, I made the right decision. I have a better phone and I still have not reached its full potential.
Sorry Omega, not this time, thank you A919 Duo, you made a new fan.

Technology is ever-changing. It's already changed the way we shop for groceries–and guess what? We haven't seen the half of it yet! Here are ten futuristic store features soon to be rolled out in a supermarket near you.
10. Smart Shelves
According to Newsweek, Kroger revealed earlier this year at the National Retail Federation's Big Show that it will be rolling out digital smart shelves in 200 stores in the U.S. by the end of 2018. The shelves instantly update prices, as well as help customers find an item they're looking for by highlighting it on the shelf. So, how exactly do the shelves know what you're looking for? Bluetooth technology in the shelves interacts with the shopping list in your smartphone. The technology is part of Kroger EDGE, a cloud-based solution that relies on Microsoft Azure for storing and processing customer data. EDGE stands for Enhanced Display for Grocery Environment.
9. Self-Driving Shopping Carts
Also introduced at the National Retail Federation's Big Show was a self-driving shopping cart named "Dash." The shopping cart is made by Five Elements Robotics, a New Jersey-based company that designs robots for both businesses and consumers. Here are some of Dash's key features:
-Leads customers to their items past featured displays
-Collects data on customers' buying habits
-Provides targeted ads
-Customers pay at the cart
-Follows customers to their car
-Returns itself to the store and the docking station
8. Robot Assistants
Walmart will soon start using robot assistants to fill online grocery orders. This cutting edge automation is the result of a collaboration with startup Alert Innovation and has been dubbed "Alphabot."
According to Mark Ibbotson, Executive Vice President of Central Operations, Walmart U.S., the robots will retrieve ordered items from a warehouse and deliver them to a Walmart associate who will then assemble and deliver the orders. "The vast majority of grocery products we offer in-store will be fulfilled through this system, though our personal shoppers will still handpick produce and other fresh items," Ibbotson said in a news release.
"We plan to have Alphabot online and running by the end of the year," he added.
FYI, Kroger announced a similar program in May. It has partnered with UK-based online supermarket Ocada to build 20 robot-powered warehouses in the U.S. Ocada currently uses robots to fill online grocery orders.
7. Drive-Through Stores
Amazon opened its first drive-through store last year. Customers place an order online, drive to an AmazonFresh Pickup building, and wait for an employee to bring out their groceries and load them into the trunk. Or, customers can walk inside and pick up their order in the lobby. NOTE: You must be an Amazon Prime member to shop AmazonFresh Pickup.
Russian inventor Semenov Dahir Kurmanbievich also likes the idea of drive-through supermarkets. He filed a patent application a couple of years ago for drive-through supermarkets that would work something like this: The customer drives up to an available station and selects the grocery items they want from vertically rotating shelves, all while remaining in their car, mind you. The groceries are then placed onto a conveyor belt and the customer drives a few feet away to begin the checkout process.
6. In-Store Cooking and Dining
Hema Xiansheng, a Chinese supermarket chain owned by e-commerce giant Alibaba, has quite an extensive prepared-foods section. There's a 100-seat food court where many workers from nearby office buildings drop by for a bite to eat on their lunch break. There's also a Cantonese counter that sells roast duck and pork. Also, customers can also pick out fresh, live seafood right there in the store and send it to the kitchen to be cooked in several different styles. According to Harrison Jacobs, Business Insider's international correspondent, it takes about 20 minutes for the seafood to be cooked.
5. High-Tech Payment Options
At Hema, customers can use facial recognition to pay for their groceries. For extra security, customers put in their phone number after their face is scanned.
Alibaba partnered with KFC last year to launch a facial recognition payment option for the restaurant's customers. Here's how it works: After placing their order, the customer smiles into a 3-D camera, which scans his or her face to verify their identity. The "smile to pay" service is used in conjunction with the Alipay app, Alibaba's mobile-payments provider. A phone number verification option is also available for a bit of added security.
The service was launched at KFC's Hangzhou, China location.
4. Cashierless Stores
What if you could walk into a grocery store, pick up what you want, and walk out without having to make a payment with a cashier? Yes, it sounds like shoplifting, but it's actually the idea behind cashierless stores. Walmart played with the idea by incorporating self-checkout registers. But Kroger and Amazon took it one step further.
Kroger rolled out its "Scan, Bag, Go" feature at one of its Richmond-based stores just a few months ago. To take advantage of this feature, customers can use a handheld scanner or a mobile app to scan prices and bag the items as they shop. When it's time to check out, customers simply point the scanner to a bar code on self-checkout registers and make a payment. Customers using the mobile app can pay at the self-checkout register or through the app. "They will actually pay on their phone and they receive a confirmation number that they give to the self-checkout attendant as they are leaving," Kyle Russell, manager for Scan, Bag, Go for Kroger's Mid-Atlantic division, said in a Richmond Times-Dispatch article.
Meanwhile, internet giant Amazon recently opened Amazon Go, a chain of cashierless grocery stores. When customers arrive at the store, they must scan the Amazon Go app on their smartphone to "register." This alerts Amazon to their presence and gives them entry to the store. From there, they shop for the items they need and exit the store without having to go to a cash register. Cameras track all the items they pick up, and their Amazon account is charged once they walk out.
3. Shop Using Mobile Apps
What do Amazon Go, Kroger's "Scan, Bag, Go" technology, and Hema Xiansheng all have in common? Their customers can shop and pay for groceries using a mobile app. Hema is especially adamant about getting shoppers to use the app. First off, in order to shop there you have to download the app. And rather than having cashiers ring you up, the stores have several kiosks where customers can pay with Alipay. If you want to pay with cash, you have to go to an in-store service center. "Hema and Alibaba really want people to stay in the app," Jacobs said in a Business Insider article.
2. Ultra Fresh Food
A major selling point for Hema is its ultra-fresh meats, fruits and vegetables. In fact, the name Hema Xiansheng means "boxed or packaged freshness and liveliness." Consequently, Hema has testing stations where customers can taste the freshness of the produce right there in the store. It also has a live-seafood section with several rows of fish, oysters, shrimp, lobster, scallops, and prawns.
Fresh food is very important in China–but not for the reason you may think. It's all about the taste, texture, color and smell of the foods, not about healthy eating. According to EthnoMed.org, fresh food is a crucial component of good Chinese cooking.
1. Fast and Convenient Service
Another feature of Amazon Go stores is the ready-to-eat meals. These include salads, sandwiches and wraps. Right next to the ready-to-eat meals are cold drinks. And, next to the cold drinks are snacks like cookies and chips. "We really focused on fast, convenient," Gianna Puerini, vice president of Amazon Go, told CNET. "Grab a quick lunch, grab something to take home for dinner, perhaps a quick drink or a snack."
Hema also offers fast, convenient grocery shopping. If you choose to shop online rather than in-store, the entire process probably won't take any longer than 30 minutes, according to Jacobs. That's "10 minutes to pick the items, 10 minutes [for employees] to sort them in the back, and 10 minutes for delivery," he said in a Business Insider article. Delivery is free. Or, if you prefer, you can pick up your order at a nearby store location.
So, there you have it. The future of grocery stores in a nutshell. Thanks for reading, and happy shopping!

What is a Hygro-Thermometer?
A hygro-thermometer measures relative humidity (RH) and temperature. The unit of measure for relative humidity is percent (the range is 0.0 to 100.0%). 100% relative humidity is the maximum amount of moisture that air can hold without condensation. Temperature is sensed on Extech Hygro-Thermometers by a thermistor and is displayed in °C or °F.
What is Dew Point?
Dew Point is the temperature at which water vapor condenses. It is not as common as relative humidity measurements but has applications in meteorological, chemical, and electronic assembly areas.
What is a Psychrometer?
A Psychrometer is a Hygro-Thermometer that uses Wet/Dry Bulb technology. Wet/Dry Bulb is a complex humidity-temperature measuring technology that Extech meters simulate using an internal algorithm.
Hygro-Thermometer Applications
- Semiconductor fabrication clean rooms
- Environmental analysis
- Electronic assembly
- Food processing and serving areas
- Computer and other workstation environments
- Processes requiring gases in manufacturing
- HVAC applications
- Greenhouses
- Flood restoration
Calibration Bottles
Extech offers calibration references for 33% and 75% relative humidity. The calibration references are small bottles that accept the humidity sensor. Periodic calibration is necessary to insure precise readings. Check the listings for the appropriate reference bottles for a given meter.

Colorado Springs City Council and the Board of El Paso County Commissioners approved an agreement Jan. 22 to operate a joint office of emergency management. The new agency will be called the Pikes Peak Regional Office of Emergency Management.
The office will be responsible for coordinating and assisting first responders in emergencies as well as preparing government and the community for disasters. The city and county currently operate separate offices.
Establishment of the new office will allow the county and the city to optimize staff resources, establish a single point of contact during major incidents and enhance communication during and after an event.
City Council passed a resolution to formally accept the three-year intergovernmental agreement, which reads in part:
"The intent of this Agreement is to form a cooperative agency staffed by City and County personnel to serve the citizens of Colorado Springs and El Paso County by building a more resilient community through collaboration and competence in emergency management services, and by providing mitigation, preparedness, response, recovery, and coordination for large-scale emergencies and disasters, saving lives and preventing property damage."
Mayor John Suthers said, "natural disasters in our region, particularly fires and floods, do not observe municipal boundaries. We can most efficiently prepare for an emergency and respond to one by coordinating our efforts on a regional basis."
Suthers has said establishment of the joint emergency management office was one of his priorities for 2019.
"Consolidating the county and city offices of emergency management will allow for greater efficiency in planning and training for emergencies and in responding to them," he said. "This effort will result in greater public safety for years to come."
Commissioner Stan VanderWerf said the county's partnership with the city is "yielding great results. Regionalizing the office of emergency management will cut down on government duplication and will result in a more efficient response in the event of another disaster. Bold innovations like this is what make El Paso County an attractive place to raise a family, work or start a business."
The office of emergency management will operate under a regional director. That individual will be selected by the city's chief of staff, Jeff Greene, and El Paso County administrator Henry Yankowski. The city and county will contribute equally to the budget for the new agency.

When your musical career spans decades, keeping track of every performance and television appearance can get tricky. Sometimes answering questions requires detective work. Thanks to Allan (DrHGuy) at Cohencentric, we can now mark the Leonard Cohen Regina mystery solved.
Leonard Cohen's 1970 European Tour
Ask any group of musicians who've been on the road touring and they'll tell you there's more than just showing up at concert halls involved. Rehearsal time, backstage warm up sessions, press interviews, and radio and television performances make for very busy, chaotic times.
Such was the case with Leonard Cohen and The Army's 1970 European tour. From May 3- May 16, 1970, they played 9 concerts in 5 countries: Holland, Germany, Austria, England, and France. Often when people speak of that 1970 tour, they say it spanned from May 4-13. Those dates ignore the Amsterdam concert (May 3) and the group's appearance at Leeds University (May 16). Even with the few extra days added on by the Leeds performance, 9 concerts in 13 days was an incredible feat.
But, of course, these concert dates did not include the on-air publicity performances that were a routine part of life on the road in those days.
It was from one of these on-air performances that the Leonard Cohen Regina Mystery was born.
Leonard Cohen Regina Mystery
The song Regina was easily recognized at the time. The famous bluegrass singer Lester Flatt had just included it on his debut solo album, Flatt Out.
So how did a song from Lester Flatt's album end up on Cohen's playlist during the 1970 tour?
The truth is, it didn't. According to Aileen Fowler, also a member of The Army alongside Ron Cornelius, Elkin Fowler, Corlynn Hanney, and others,
"…in the year prior to the Cohen tour ('69-'70), Columbia wanted to reunite Lester Flatt and Earl Scruggs for one final album. As you may know, there had been an unpleasant split between the two. The deal was if they would return and do one final farewell album, Columbia promised each of them an album of their own immediately following the farewell album. They agreed. Bob Johnston was their producer, and Elkin and Charlie played on all three albums. The week after the farewell album was recorded, Lester recorded his solo album, and the week after that, Earl recorded his solo album. Regina is a song that was recorded by Lester on his album. Elkin and Charlie were playing with Earl on the Grand Ole Opry when the Cohen tour came together. When Flatt and Scruggs broke up, the band went with Lester and Earl needed pickers. Charlie could sing exactly like Lester, and we used to play and sing Regina when we were rehearsing in the studio for the Cohen tour. All our rehearsals, by the way, were at Columbia Studio A in Nashville. Leonard sang along and we all grew to love the song and harmonizing on it. It became our main warm-up song on tour. Never performed it onstage.
Regina was written by Harold Tipton and the title of the album is Flatt Out. Elkin and Charlie aren't credited, but they were there."
Mystery Solved
Truly, Regina was their favorite warm up song, nothing they ever intended to play on stage. That is, until they found themselves on a French television show. Leonard opened their 2 song set with Partisan then, instead of proceeding with what he originally planned, he called The Army to gather around and led them in Regina.
Why did Leonard choose to call The Army forward? I'm afraid that is a mystery we may never solve. Leonard never spoke of his decision to anyone.
Years later, rumors began circulating about this performance but there was little proof to back them up. Then this old recording was uploaded to daily motion, granting all of us a chance to revisit the day a warm up song made it on stage.
Uncovering the mysteries of life on the road and sharing the stories he remembers most is something Ron Cornelius does well in his new book, The Guitar Behind Leonard and Cohen. Autographed copies are available exclusively on The Gateway Entertainment website.

This interview that Cinta Garcia asked me to do and it was the first interview I ever did, or since come to think if it lol, I remember being really nervous about what to write for the answers. Have and look and check out cinta's other interviews she has done 🙂
Today I am featuring in my blog series Peter Germany. He is not a published author yet, but he is a member of the Indie Community, and I am sure that we won't have to wait long to see some of his stories published. I have been lucky enough as to read some of his stories, which belong to the sci-fi and horror genres, and I can tell you that people will love his work for sure. I can recognise talent when I see it! So enjoy the interview and keep an eye on this author. His stories are sure winners.
- Describe yourself.
I would say that I am honest, hard working, loyal, thoughtful (sometimes lol).

I have seen some very good Ann Takamaki cosplay in the past six months, but few have come as close to the source material as Megan Coffey's effort here.
You might remember Megan from a feature we ran earlier this year. If you missed it, consider your heart now changed.

Over the years we've received a lot of compliments on our writing, but the best one came from a nine-year-old boy. We'd helped his great aunt write a book of her life stories, and she was reading them aloud to a group of family and friends. The boy listened intently as she read about how her father, the boy's great-grandfather, had escaped from Russia and made his way to the United States.
When she was finished, the boy came over to us. "Thank you for helping Auntie Pearl write that story," he said. "When I hear about my family, it makes me proud to be me."
We fell into the memoir-writing business by accident. Andy helped her parents record their life stories, and the experience, which was documented in an article in Newsweek, was so rewarding that it truly changed our lives.
We started a business, Legacy Prose™, through which we act as ghostwriters or mentors for people who want to preserve their family stories for future generations. We've worked with folks from North Carolina to southern California, and the benefits are enormous—not only for our clients, but for us as well. After all, what's better than hearing, and learning from, the stories of other people?
We were honored when two of our stories were chosen for an anthology showcasing the best of personal history. In fact, the title of the book, My Words are Gonna Linger, was taken from our story about an Appalachian toy maker.
Below, excerpts from a few of the memoirs we've helped people write. (Names have been changed.)
Please give us a call if you'd like to learn more about our work as ghostwriters and personal historians.
So Far From Home
In this book a woman speaks directly to her son, and through him, to her future grandchildren. This is one of the stories chosen for the anthology, My Words Are Gonna Linger.
You want to know about when I met Daddy? Let me tell you. Dr. Lifsky lived next door to us in my town, Bereza Kartuska in Poland. One day he came over and said to my mother, "Sarah, I am getting a visitor, an old friend who used to live in Warsaw. Now he has a jewelry store in America. He's a macher [Yiddish for "big shot"] there."
The doctor didn't have to finish what he was saying. My mother knew. "Of course, bring him over," she said. "Our house is your house." Read more.
Going All the Time
Here, we helped a woman tell the stories of her life and, at the same time, reflect on the life she almost had.
Most people, when they start to recount the stories of their life, are hesitant, unsure how to begin. Elizabeth Maynard has no such problem.
"Bobby was the love of my life," she says forcefully, looking me straight in the eye to make sure I understand the implications of her statement, the importance of Bobby.
Then, as quickly as she began, she stops. She puts her elbows on the table, rests her forehead in her hands. When, after a short pause, she begins talking again, her voice is so low it is barely audible. Read more.
Two Lives, One Love
In this instance we worked with a long-married couple to create a joint memoir. As their personal story is so entwined with the time and place where they lived for more than 80 years, their local historical society requested several copies for their library.
What do you say about a man who, after 66 years of marriage, posts a love note on the mirror above his wife's vanity?
What do you say about a woman who, at age 85, smiles as she says thoughtfully, "You know, sometimes Jerry's stubborn, and sometimes he's impatient. But that's not bad, not bad at all. Everybody is entitled to two little faults." Read more.

Oakapple Homes ("OH") used sister company Oakapple Construction ("OC") to convert an old Derbyshire Mill to a large flat and retail complex. As part of the build contract arrangement OH novated the appointment of their Architect, DTR, over to OH. As the novation substituted OC for OH as Employer under the appointment DTR gave OH the usual duty of care warranty.
The Mill burnt down and also DTR went into liquidation and the liquidator disclaimed their appointment. So the issue arose to what extent DTR's indemnity insurers were liable for DTR's duty of care warranties that had been given to OH and some occupiers.
DTR tried to say that OC had contributed to the building being destroyed by negligently departing from their designs.
They said the beneficiaries of the warranties had to have their damages reduced because the warranties DTR gave them said that DTR owed them no greater liability than it did to the Employer under the Employer's appointment of them, and that Employer was contributorily negligent for departing from their designs.
The court ruled that, even if OC had been contributorily negligent, and, even if OC were OH's sister company, they were separate bodies and OH could not have had its damages affected by what another company had done. That principle applied whether OH's damages had been under the appointment, had it never been novated, or under the collateral warranty it had got from DTR at novation.
Secondly the court said that when the warranties talked about the Employer under the appointment, they meant the original appointment, before the novation changed the Employer under that appointment from OH to OC, and, since OH wasn't guilty of any contributory negligence that would have reduced its damages (on whichever basis), neither would the beneficiaries suffer any such reduction under their warranty claims. Also it was that original unreduced liability DTR's insurers had agreed to insure, under the indemnity policy, not the measure of DTR's liablity to OC, which the insurer's were claiming to have been reduced by OC's alleged contributory negligence.
As if that wasn't enough the court thought the relationship between the beneficiaries of the warranties and DTR was totally contractual so statutory damages reduction for contributory negligence did not apply any way. DTR and their insurers would have had to show that the beneficiaries claims against DTR and their insurers were based common law of negligence (which it could not) and that to the extent there was also the contractual duty under the warranties that it was coextensive with, and triggered by, what was in all other respects common law negligence.
Professional indemnity insures will have taken note of a case which has potentially wide implications for them and perhaps greater protection for occupiers and other beneficiaries where property developers offer a one stop shop of development, construction and sometimes design, quantity surveying and project managment from subsidiaries within their Group.
At the same time insurers can be expected to vigorously contest claims where a professional has accepted no supervisory or inspection obligation to pick up a third party's failure to adhere to its competent designs.

Last week, we raised a couple of points re: the IRS – Tea Party flap.
First, we pointed out that organizations don't need to seek IRS approval to operate as a 501(c)4 … they can just do it.
Someday they might get the 501(c)4 status audited and revoked, but since Tea Parties spend the money that they raise on their activities, there shouldn't be any income to tax.
And, donations to a 5042(c)4 are not tax deductible.
If there isn't a tax advantage to either the organization or it's donors, why did the conservative organizations go through thee agony of applying?
The answer is simple … and, not surprisingly, upended by the IRS targeting …
What's the benefit for organizations to get approved for 501(c)(4) status?
Donor anonymity.
Tea Party-iike organizations operate on donations.
And, many donors prefer to remain anonymous … to avoid, well, targeting by the IRS and liberal media.
By IRS statute, donors names don't have to be revealed.
That's the sought-after benefit!
= = = = =
An interesting twist
As part of the IRS targeting process, they asked Tea Parties for their donor lists?
But, if the organization is legitimately a 501(c) 4, then the law says it can keep the donor list confidential.
So, the IRS minions were going right after the major benefit that the Tea Parties were seeking.
Double huh?
