MAPECU2 has now been replaced with MAPECU3 which does everything MAPECU2 did, plus much more.
MAPECU2 Overview
MAPECU2 is a major functional upgrade over the MAPECU.
Our MAPECU's replace voltage and frequency based air flow meters with Manifold Absolute Pressure (MAP) based load sensing (Speed Density). Voltage types include the spring door 'flap' types and hot wire types used by numerous manufacturers. Frequency based units are commonly known as Karman Vortex Frequency air flow meter as used by Mitsubishi™ or DSM vehicles and some other manufacturers.
The MAPECU2 combines the functionality of other manufacturers Air Flow Converters and Vane to Pressure Converters into the one unit, plus more. Click here to find base tables for popular vehicles, or if you have the skills you can build your own using learn mode. MAPECU2 tables are programmed using a 2D Table Mode or the 3D Graph Mode. Both views allow real-time editing of the MAPECU2 Fuel, Timing, Auxiliary Injector and O2 Adjust configuration.
MAPECU2 combines the functionality of MAPECU with full Timing control, OEM Air/Fuel Ratio Adjust, Auxiliary Injector control and Electronic Boost Control. It also has many on-board functions that usually require the purchase of secondary piggyback controllers.
For tuning, MAPECU2 is connected to an Industry Standard PC running Microsoft(tm) Windows2000™, WindowsXP™ or Windows7™ via a serial port or USB to serial adaptor, sold separately. Configuration and monitoring is accomplished using our proprietary graphical user interface, MAPCAL2. The graphical user interface allows real-time configuration and monitoring of the MAPECU2, even while running the vehicle on a Dyno, etc.

I have yet to take a melatonin tablet, but sleep will be fast approaching. So, I'll try to type some thoughts about the long trip to Orlando that ended early this evening. I left Columbus at 9:15 last night, and spent the next 22 hours on Greyhound, and actually arrived at Orlando 20 minutes early.
This is my first time in the Sunshine State. Susie has been down here all summer with Steph and Steph's partner Mike. Susie will be coming back to Ohio with me on Sunday morning (another first: the first time I have been on an airplane in almost 30 years), and I'm spending a little R and R here in Merritt Island, on the Space Coast of Florida.
I am glad I made the trip down by bus, although the portions of the trip occurring in the nighttime hours were tedious, once I left Cincinnati. It was odd for me for a bus trip to not terminate in Cincinnati, so when the rest stop ended, I had to remind myself that I was going further south. I was not able to sleep very well as the bus went down Interstate 75 through Kentucky, although I did manage a few scattered hours once the bus crossed the Tennessee line. All I had to eat on that leg of the trip was an overpriced bag of animal crackers, which I bought at the Greyhound station in Chattanooga. (The same bus station also featured 20-ounce bottles of Coke products for $2.25. I passed on that!)
My only change of buses was in Atlanta. The bus station there is too small and too chaotic, which is surprising for a city that size. However, with the help of the station manager, the driver of the Atlanta-to-Orlando leg of the trip quite efficiently loaded the passengers, and we made very good time all the way to Orlando. (During a rest stop in Tifton, Ga., I had some fried chicken at Church's, which was my only meal until Steph, Mike, Susie, and I had a big dinner at Kelsey's Pizza Pasta Kitchen in Merritt Island.)
The brevity of this account is a far cry from the first travelogue I ever wrote. I think the first "long" manuscript I ever wrote (long since lost) was when I was 11. It was called "Two Trips to Richmond, Virginia," and I described two trips I made with my parents to Richmond, when my uncle was seriously ill with the congestive heart failure that would eventually kill him. I faithfully described every bathroom break, food stop, Mail Pouch barn, and trip to the hospital that I could remember. The end product was 48 single-spaced typewritten pages.
I am no stranger to long bus rides, but this one took a lot more out of me than I thought it would. Even taking a melatonin tablet on the bus didn't help me sleep. I didn't read much, either, because it seemed that would require more mental energy than I could summon. My mood perked up as the bus neared Orlando, and especially when Susie ran up to me and hugged me in the terminal.
Now that I've visited Florida, there are only 11 states I have yet to visit. They are in the Pacific Northwest, the Deep South, and Alaska and Hawaii.
I went to Volunteers of America and bought a large suitcase for this trip, and then had to buy a larger knapsack than the one I usually carry–one that would fit this laptop, as well as books, my diary, camera, and other necessities of travel. Even so, I looked overloaded, because I also had to carry the black over-the-shoulder bag containing my CPAP machine. (On the way back from Kelsey's, we did some grocery shopping at Publix, since I had to buy distilled water for the machine.)
I had difficulty loading Blogger's page while I was on the bus, otherwise I may have attempted an entry in "real time." (I have a hard time picturing Jack Kerouac with a laptop during his travels.)
Now, as Samuel Pepys would say, "And so to bed."

The size offered here is SM (8-10), please contact us if you are interested in any other size, alterations are also possible.
Genuine Alpaca fur, as offered here, will improve with age and maintain its soft supple feel if cared for correctly. To keep the fur in tip top condition, we recommend a regular brush with a pet brush and perhaps a little talcum powder.
By the way, you can rest in peace knowing all the fur required to make this luxurious gilet has been sourced ethically, without the need for killing or harming any animals.
* This item will be sent using Royal Mail Guaranteed by 1pm. A signed for, guaranteed 1 working day delivery method (not including weekends).
What Samantha Holmes says about the products…
Historically known as the "Gold of the Incas", Alpaca fleece was once treasured by Inca Royalty. 500 years on, we have sought a little innovation with our signature yarn, which combines fine micron Baby Alpaca (not the be confused with inferior grade alpaca commonly seen in tourist markets)
We select only the finest Peruvian Huacaya and Suri Alpaca fur for our products and prefer the beauty and character of the natural skin colour, rather than using dyes. The skins are tanned, matched and sewn by skilled artisans whose painstaking traditions have been passed down from one generation to the next. The fur we us is from alpaca that have died of natural causes - from baby Alpacas – or "cria", as they are known. The younger, weaker animals often perish in the harsh Andean Winter. The alpacas have not been killed for their fur. Alpacas can live for 20 years, promising a lifetime of shearing potential of far greater value than a single pet.
This garment was created to ensure ultimate softness and luxury handle. Therefore, due to its fine, delicate nature, please take care when trying on with jewellery. Variation in the finished product may arise as a result of the natural handcrafted process.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi has said, the welfare of the people and the happiness of citizens is supreme for the government.
He said, the government always thinks about where the nation will reach through its work.
He said, the government always thinks about where the nation will reach through its work.
Addressing a meeting of young CEOs in New Delhi today, Mr. Modi said, every citizen must have a feeling that this country belongs to him and he has to work for it. He urged the young entrepreneurs to become soldiers of development.
He asked the industry leaders to think about what more they can do for the poorest of the poor. The Prime Minister said, there is a need to make India's development a mass movement in the same spirit as Mahatma Gandhi did for the freedom struggle.
Mr. Modi added that if this generation thinks of feasible solutions to country's unique problems, markets and jobs will automatically be created.
On cashless transactions, the Prime Minister exhorted young entrepreneurs to go cashless by 2022. Mr. Modi said, he is looking at end-to-end solutions for India and the digital India with 100 times increase in Optical Fibre Networks is an example.
He said, planting timbers on fringes of farm land will help double farmers' income and also reduce its import. The Prime Minister said, the rationalization of numerous laws to provide Gas smoothly for the production of Urea is a big initiative of the government to ensure farmers welfare.
He said, this led to additional production of 20 lakh tonnes of urea. The Prime Minister said, Neem-coating of urea ended its large scale diversion.
Mr Modi also talked about promoting the Khadi through gifting and said it will greatly help the poor. He also gave the example of Government e-Marketplace (GeM) to show how small traders are competing successfully in provision of supplies to the government.
He said, one thousand crore rupees have been transacted through GeM so far and 28 thousand suppliers have contributed to this platform. Mr. Modi said, Indians must take pride in their own country and each one should develop a temperament to promote tourist destinations within India, spontaneously among their contacts.
The Prime Minister also lauded outgoing Vice Charmian of NITI Aayog, Dr. Arvind Panagariya saying he has taken the Aayog to greater heights. Over 200 CEOs attended the event Champions of Change organized by the NITI where their inputs were sought to expedite growth and for job creation. Last week, Mr Modi had interacted with young entrepreneurs of various start-ups.

LEASES; MUNICIPALITIES; PUBLIC BIDDING — Even though a lease should have been approved by a governing body and should have been subject to the public bidding statute, where the lease was addressed at multiple public hearings, and the municipality accepted rent, without question, for years, equity demands that the lease be held valid and enforceable.
A wireless company was encouraged by a former municipal employee to consider leasing an undeveloped site owned by the municipality as an antenna tower location. The parties negotiated and there were public meetings about the lease. Ultimately, the land-use ordinance was amended to permit the tower at the suggested location. Pursuant to a lease agreement, the tower was erected. It operated on the municipal premises for seven years, at which time the company assigned the lease to another wireless company. The assignee continued to pay rent as well as the rent increases called for under the lease. The municipality accepted the rents.
The municipality began to question the validity of the lease after it sought an increase of rental payments outside the lease terms, and the assignee refused to pay. The municipality argued the lease was invalid because it had never been submitted for public bidding and had never been approved by the governing body. It made this argument even though the lease was the subject of multiple public meetings, and even though the municipality collected rents, issued construction and building permits, and approved land-use applications for the site.
The assignee sued in response to the municipality's challenge of the lease. It sought specific performance. The lower court granted summary judgment in favor of the assignee, finding the lease valid and enforceable for the remainder of the term.
On equitable grounds, the Appellate Division affirmed that the lease was valid and enforceable. The Court agreed that the lease should have been approved by the governing body and was subject to the bidding statute. Nevertheless, the lease was addressed at six public meetings, it was the municipality's former employee who recommended the location, and the municipality accepted the rent without question. Though this was a private agreement outside the bidding process, the Court chose to uphold the agreement upon a record that showed the municipality had accepted the substantial benefits of the lease, and had only questioned the validity of the lease once its demand for additional rent had been rejected.

Asbestos Companies Newport Coast CA
Looking for asbestos companies Newport Coast CA? Here's why you should choose H2 Environmental.
At H2 Environmental, we test your air to make sure it is safe and clean as one of our primary business activities. Our focus on indoor air quality means that we have lots of experience in eradicating airborne contaminants, including asbestos.

The Importance of Asbestos Air Testing

Having considered the report the Stewards noted the explanation offered.

All About Aluminum Siding
Aluminium siding is a popular choice for external cladding because it is cheap, easy to install and takes very little effort to maintain.
How Do I Install Aluminium Siding?
One of the many benefits of aluminium is that it is a very light material, and can be handled easily by any do-it-yourself enthusiast.
Check the manufacturer's instructions for precise installation advice. Generally, metal siding kits contain prepared aluminium sheets which are easy to cut using a standard circular saw. For precise small cuts, use tin snips or even a standard utility knife. If you need to bend the aluminium sheets, you may have to hire a specialist tool to get a professional finish. Most tool hire stores have them. As with all do-it-yourself jobs, your safety is of paramount importance so be sure to use gloves and protective glasses.
To start the job, first apply the trim to the windows, doors and gables. You may need to use a small amount of general purpose sealant around windows and door to ensure a waterproof join. Let the sealant go off before you fix the panels.
The metal sheets are usually then fixed onto foam insulation board backing. These boards have the dual use of providing a level surface for you to work on and conserving the energy from your home. For aluminium siding, you must use aluminium nails. Do not forget that aluminium expands and contracts in the heat and cold, so allow approximately 1/8 inch tolerance for this.
How Do I Clean Aluminium Siding?
You might be really tempted to pressure wash your metal siding. After all, it would only take half an hour, right? Resist the temptation, as pressure washing would ruin your existing paint job. Instead, get a clean long handled brush and a bucket of warm soapy water. Dishwashing soap is adequate for this task. Brush the soap solution over the siding thoroughly, and rinse with a garden hose. This method will remove dirt and grime but preserve your current paint job.
Some metal siding suffers from chalking, where deposits of chemicals are left where the wall is exposed to the weather. If this is the case, you will need to go up a ladder and physically scrub the surface of the siding with a non-metallic abrasive substance before pressure washing it.
How Do I Paint Aluminium Siding?
Whilst pressure washing is an ideal way to destroy an old paint job, it is the perfect way to prepare a surface for repainting.
We know that aluminium expands and contracts with temperature variations. That is why it's so important to choose a paint that does the same. Otherwise, the paint will crack after just one season. Acrylic latex paint is the best product for this job, as it has the elasticity that is required. Apply the paint using a spray gun for an even finish. For the best results, paint the aluminium siding on a cool day, out of the direct sun. The more slowly the paint dries, the smoother the finish will be.

Events have been heating up in Crete, Ill., a south suburb of Chicago, where local Crete officials, Immigrations and Customs Enforcement, and the private prison company Corrections Corporation of America, have been making plans to build a 750-bed immigrant detention center.
(Top photo: Attendees at the Crete Village Board meeting. Bottom photo: A protest sign appears at a site in Crete rumored to be the location of the proposed detention center.)
At an impassioned meeting held this past Monday night at the Crete Township hall, organized by concerned residents of Crete and the surrounding communities, and the Interfaith Committee for Detained Immigrants, a coalition in which JCUA is an active member, nearly 160 local residents listened intently to comments about the impact this private prison would have on their town and on undocumented immigrants.
Main concerns were property values, economic failure and inhumane treatment of immigrants. Crete residents show no sign of backing down on this issue and are determined to get answers from their town officials on a decision that has broad impact on Crete, the state of Illinois, and the immigration conversation taking place across the nation.
This campaign opposing the construction of this site has warranted attention from former U.S. Rep. Debbie Halvorson and current U.S. Rep. Jesse Jackson Jr., who are currently facing off in the Democratic primary for congress in Illinois' Second Congressional District, which includes Crete.
JCUA has been a strong and active supporter of these efforts.

Chelsea Handler is known for being a few things: A celebrity, a comedian, a late night talk show host, an author and an all-round ballsy chick! This week was no different for the blonde bombshell go-getter who was a featured speaker at the Makers Conference held on February 10-12 in Los Angeles, which boasted speakers and guests such as Sheryl Sandberg, Gloria Steinem, Jennifer Aniston, PBS Newshour's Gwen Ifill, Martha Stewart Geena Davis, tween football prodigy Sam Gordon, and many more amazing women AND men.
Chelsea was one of those women in the line-up and the things she had to say about being a woman in the cutthroat male-dominated TV landscape was pretty eye-opening and gave us a whole new respect for this woman.
Marie Claire's Editor-In-Chief Anne Fulenwider asked her how she fits in in the boys world and Chelsea didn't hold back. She said half of her staff are women, on purpose, and no other late night show in America can say that about the staff on their show. She talked about how rejection shouldn't stop you from achieving great things as a woman, because all you need is one "yes".
"Just keep knocking down walls until one person says yes. No one wanted to give a female a late night talk show, and when I did get it, no one wanted to let me put a little person as my sidekick. They said that's never been done and you don't do that. I wanted to know why I couldn't do it. If I think it's funny then someone else is going to think it's funny too. Someone else has to agree with me."
"And they said no, female late night shows don't work. I had one person who said they do work. And it was a man. He said it's going to work and she has a different point of view. I think the most important thing, whatever your profession is, is if you do something really well, people will recognize it."
The part that was most surprising to us was the revelation that she advocates supporting other women. Not because we think she hates the sisterhood, but doesn't necessarily make any special mention to it. But now that she has, we are so glad to have one of the leading comedians of our time (male or female) basically admit she is a feminist. Yep, we're calling her out on it. Coz check it out…
"I think as a woman you have a responsibility to take care of other women. If you're a girl, you should naturally be predisposed to other women. That's just the way it is. You should be sharing your experiences with other women. So yeah, I'm looking for the funniest people. And first I'm looking for the funniest women. Tina Fey and Amy Poehler and Sarah Silverman get the same question — 'what's it like being a female comedian?' It's just like being a comedian."
Two key things Chelsea says are important for succeeding in life and in your career are to own your mistakes, and get out there and contribute to the world.
"It's important for people to know that you make mistakes. That we aren't infallible. We are all embarrassed about certain things that have happened in the past, or people we've dated or things we've done or said or fights we have been in. I'm not a big proponent of pretending to be something that you're not. I think it's much more honorable to see somebody who is flawed. No one is perfect. What's the point in trying to pretend that you are?"
"Men are partial to men, just like I said women are partial to women. I think the most important thing, and the key ingredient for a woman, is to act like you belong there and believe that you belong there. It's a hard thing not to sit there and say, 'Why aren't we being treated equally?' But sometimes the argument becomes a moot point. Just fit in. Go with the flow. Contribute, contribute. And sooner or later, they're going to go, 'Wow, we need another one of those.'"
Our new fave comedian (male or female)? Chelsea Handler. Our new fave late night talk show host? Hands down Chelsea Handler. How brilliant to see a smart, witty successful woman handling her business and supporting and encouraging other women along the way. You go girl!

Using Hinged Awning Windows
Posted on February 28, 2016 at 12:14 am
A great way to improve the style and function of a room is to use hinged awning windows. Also known as casement windows, awning windows are hinged at the top, allowing for the window frame to move inward or outward. (windows hinged at the bottom are known as hoppers)
They are primarily used singly or in pairs within a common frame, in which case they are hinged on the outside. The windows are opened with a crank, lever or a cam handle, which is placed approximately hand height for the average person. The handle also functions as a window lock, allowing the windows to be securely sealed. Often times, a crank, stay, or friction hinge is necessary when the window opens outward, to hold the window in position despite wind.
Function, style, and security are major strong points of awning windows. You certainly wouldn't be making a bad choice if you wanted to add awning windows to an existing room.

Open Air Heating Soloutions
Posted on November 29, 2015 at 11:30 pm
Outdoor heating is used regularly by businesses and home owners alike. The ability to remain warm whatever the temperature outside allows outdoor spaces to be used all year round.
There are many different heating systems available. The size of the area that needs to be heated will have a big effect on what heating system will be required.
Sometimes and depending on where you live, the temperature outside gets too low even for the best outdoor heaters. In this circumstance the heaters will struggle to keep even a small area warm, rendering them useless.
But most of the time heaters will comfortably keep an area warm, allowing it to be used whatever the temperature.
Heaters are also great in the rain. While it may not be the cold that is of the greatest concern, the comfortable heat is still a welcome luxury in the unfavourable conditions.

Outdoor Upholstery, Personalise Your Garden
Posted on August 29, 2015 at 8:11 pm
Having a garden space near the home is great. The splendour of the outdoors right next to your house for everyone to enjoy.
Like the home, the garden is a great place to put furniture in. But unlike the home, only certain kinds of furniture are suitable, and usually ones without any fabric which simply aren't as comfortable.
There is a solution however, and that's to use specially designed outdoor upholstery on garden furniture.
Outdoor upholstery is designed to be durable, whilst maintaining the comfort of fabric. It is a great addition to standard garden furniture, which usually does not come with upholstery covers or cushions.
Adding upholstery to furniture takes a certain degree of skill to do, but it can make a huge difference to the traditionally hard garden furniture we are accustomed to.
It does not only add additional comfort, but the choice of right outdoor upholstery fabrics can help create suitable mood and add a touch of personal style to any ensemble.

Giant Parasols And Umbrellas
Posted on February 24, 2015 at 2:00 pm
A great way to keep the unwanted sunlight or rainy weather off of your sitting area. Large parasols and umbrellas are a functional and attractive way of adding a protective layer above an extended surface area.
Usually considered over the traditional static outdoor gazebo or hut style outdoor covers. They are increasingly used by businesses and for personal use. There are many modern designs that add style to an outdoor space, as well as being functional. With improved internal parts to enable ease of use and structural stability over traditional umbrella designs.
With added lighting or heating systems, designed for use underneath the umbrella, a truly unique and comfortable space can be created outdoors.
Many large parasols are also moveable and able to be erected in different locations. They can provide cover nearly anywhere. A great choice for a restaurant, pub, café or outdoor event.

Warmth on Brisk Evenings
Posted on January 25, 2015 at 3:46 pm
Adding a heating system to your awning can be a really nice addition, and it means that you can enjoy your outdoor entertainment area, even when it's a typically cold, British evening.
If you have a patio awning in your back garden, then a patio heater is ideal, and this will usually be wall mounted, providing a desirable amount of warmth for you and your guests. Al fresco dining on a chilly evening no longer has to be an issue with an outdoor heater, and you could even opt for a traditional chimenea.
The great thing is infrared heating is safe, and there is no pressurised gas bottles or cylinder storage problems. It is maintenance free too and you tend to get instant heat, and that's why you'll find these clever systems in most British gardens. Some people argue that you get a short lamp life, but this will obviously depend on the system you choose but remember, you do 'get what you pay for' most of the time.

I can relate to all of it. I have lived with ADHD untreated all my life and I didn't know what was wrong with me until I was 54. I'm 55 now. I don't do well in any type of therapy and I've tried different groups and organizations, etc… I'm very stiff aware i know what to do and I know me but they do not. They use things on me that will not work.
So, after I discovered this, I also discovered at 55, that my mother was a full blown Narcissist ~ which explained A LOT throughout my life. After all these years of addiction (clean 6 years now) surviving addiction, domestic violence and Narcissistic ABUSE ~ At 55 I decided to put myself through a self awareness and Boot camp of learning how to love myself, a journey on how to overcome my challenges and be free. I was going to be my own counselor. That's what I did and I'm doing awesome! Sounds crazy to shine I guess but for me, it's working. I wish you all the luck and prayers are with you!
I'm following you on Twitter and I'm finishing you here as well!

Canada is already taking the right steps to control the spread of the novel coronavirus, so there is no need to change things now that the World Health Organization has declared a global emergency over the outbreak, federal Health Minister Patty Hajdu said Thursday.
"The World Health Organization's global emergency status is really … about helping countries that do not have the same level of sophistication as Canada, or perhaps the United States, to protect their citizens if in fact they have a citizen who returns from China who is ill, or has been close to someone who has returned from China who is ill," Hajdu told reporters in Ottawa.
"You know this has been working very well in Canada, because we have actually been able to detect cases very quickly, support those people to get better and prevent the spread of disease," she said. "And what the World Health Organization is saying is that we've got to make sure that other countries can do that as well, because it is in the interest of world health that we support everyone in this process."
The World Health Organization declared the outbreak, which was sparked by a new virus in China that has been exported to more than a dozen countries, as a global emergency Thursday. The UN health agency defines an international emergency as an "extraordinary event" that constitutes a risk to other countries and requires a co-ordinated response.
Though many people experience only mild symptoms from the virus, China has reported more than 7,800 cases, including 170 deaths.
Hajdu stressed the need — and the responsibility — to remain calm.
"I think that anything that we are doing as politicians or leaders or members of the media that will create a sense of anxiety or panic is actually a dangerous road to travel down," she said.
Earlier Thursday, Ontario's chief medical officer of health said the relatively low number of cases here is "reassuring," even though it is still early days in dealing with the virus.
There are three confirmed cases of the virus in Canada — two in Ontario and one in British Columbia — and all are linked to recent travel in China.
Dr. David Williams and Ontario's associate chief medical officer of health, Dr. Barbara Yaffe, held a briefing on the new virus Thursday and said there are no new presumptive or confirmed cases in Ontario. Williams said he would be much more concerned at this point if the province had already seen around seven to 10 cases.
"This is reassuring in a way, but not that we're going to sit back and coast," he said. "The system is working. We're investigating. Individuals of concern have self-reported, are coming forward and we haven't seen ones that out of the blue show up already quite ill and infected. We're not seeing that yet, but it's still early days."
There are 27 cases currently under investigation in the province, and 38 people have already been tested and cleared.
Williams said the coronavirus does not seem to be much different from regular influenza in terms of transmissibility, and evidence suggests it is not transmissible when a person is not feeling symptoms.
The two Ontario cases are a husband and wife, and since they had both travelled to the affected area in China, it's unclear whether the woman — as the second case — got it in Wuhan or from her husband.
Asked about the novel virus Thursday afternoon, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau warned against stigmatizing the Chinese-Canadian community.
"We've seen too many instances of unreasonable fears being spread either on the internet or in other ways. We need to know this is a time for Canadians — all Canadians, including Canadians of Chinese origin — to pull together and to lean on each other," Trudeau told reporters in Brampton, Ont.
Meanwhile, Quebec has no confirmed cases of the new virus, and the chances of its being transmitted to the community are considered low, the province's director of public health said Thursday.
Dr. Horacio Arruda warned the public against wearing masks, which he said "do not constitute, by science, a useful tool for the general population in Quebec, even in the context of a coronavirus outbreak." Instead, he suggested people practice "respiratory hygiene" by washing their hands and covering their mouths when sneezing or coughing.
If people have respiratory symptoms and have to go out in public, wearing a mask can help prevent transmission, Yaffe said, but it is not useful for the general population.
"Anybody who's feeling well, wearing a mask is not going to do anything," she said. "In fact, it might give them a false sense of security."

Did you know that nearly one in three of us suffer from insomnia, and the average mum only gets 3 nights good sleep each week? The good news is that there are some surprisingly simple and effective ways to get a good night's rest.
Here is some advice supported by the National Sleep Foundation to help you get restful, healthy sleep every night.
Step 1: Exercise a little bit every day
According to the Sleep Foundation, while vigorous exercise will help you to sleep, even light exercise can be helpful. You could try walking the recommended 10,000 steps per day, or just walking for 20 minutes each day. Studies have found that a bout of moderate-intensity aerobic exercise (e.g., walking) reduced the time it took to fall asleep and increased the length of sleep of people with chronic insomnia compared to a 24 hour period in which they did not exercise. However make sure you don't exercise wthin an hour or two of bedtime as this can keep you awake.
Step 2: Check your bedroom is sleep friendly
According to the Sleep Foundation, your bedroom should be cool – between 60 and 67 degrees. As far as possible, it should be quiet and free from any light -- in particular, stop checking your mobile devices at least an hour before bedtime too as the blue light stops your sleep hormones from working well. It also helps to have a comfortable mattress and pillow and bed linen which is clean and doesn't irritate your skin. We're currently running a competition with fou furnishings where you can win some luxury organic bed linen, and you can also win an Organic Lavender, Geranium and Ylang Ylang Candle and Calm and Gentle Room Spray from us, as these fragrances are known to help you to feel calm and relaxed.

Step 3: Have a relaxing bedtime ritual.
Going to bed at around the same time each night, and having a wind down ritual which helps your body to reduce the levels of stress and anxiety hormones it is producing can not only help you to get to sleep, it can help you to remain asleep. Try to avoid alcohol, cigarettes and large meals in the hour or two before bed and do something calming each night if you can at this time. We've got a little bedtime skincare ritual which is designed to help you to do just this. The ritual helps you to enter the parasympathetic state through a gentle face massage and also tells you about aromas which can help you to relax and feel calmer. And of course, if you do this every night, your skin will be wonderful.

I have owned my house since the 1970s and it has gone up in value over the years. It is now worth around £3 million. I would like to downsize and use some of the money to help my two children. I was planning on selling and giving each of my children a slice of the capital.
However, I've now had the idea that I could gift a third of the house to each of my children so we each own a third. I would then rent out the house and split the proceeds between us.
This would give them money they could invest and me enough to rent a flat.
My hope would be that, as long as I survive for another seven years, my children would only have to pay inheritance tax (IHT) on the third of the property that I own.
Does this seem like a sensible idea, and am I right in my assessment of my children's inheritance tax bill?
The position regarding the gift for inheritance tax purposes would be the same whether you sold your property and gifted your children the cash or indeed if you gifted them a share of your property.
This gift would be a potentially exempt transfer and provided you survived seven years from the date of gift, this would indeed fall outside your estate for inheritance tax (IHT) purposes, provided you did as you intend and move out of the property.
There would be no capital gains tax (CGT) in either case as it is your principal private residence and specifically exempt from CGT. The transferred shares of the property would be deemed an investment property for your children and any increase in value during their ownership would be assessable for CGT at the point of sale. Owningother property can also now have Stamp Duty Land Tax (SDLT) implications if your children decided to purchase a new home.
As they would be classed as owning more than one property, this could involve additional second home SDLT, which is higher than they would ordinarily pay if they only owned one property.
If you were to transfer shares in your property and survive the necessary seven-year period, then you are correct in that your children would only have to worry about IHT on your share – but this could further be reduced by the new Residential Nil Rate Band which comes into effect from 2017 on a sliding scale (£100,000 initially, then rising by £25,000 each tax year until the full allowance of £175,000 becomes applicable in 2020).
This would mean that an additional £175,000 could be added to your own nil-rate band, currently £325,000, therefore reducing the amount of your property share which would be subject to inheritance tax. If your whole estate is worth more than £2 million, then this additional allowance is reduced by £1 for every £2 your estate is over this limit.

We have been looking for a place that would appeal to adults and the kids. The weather forecast was hot and humid so we would prefer to be indoors. Since we are staying in the Back Bay area, we need something close. The Prudential Mall is out of the question. The Boston Public Library in Copley Square checks all that requirement.
Built in 1895, the library design is based on the Renaissance style similar to Bibliotheque Nationale in Paris. It includes a large reading room and an open air central courtyard. It was the first urban library building in the nation.
We inquired on the Library tour but was told that there is a toddler story time in the open courtyard. I was surprised that my kids were quiet and listening to the storyteller.
Afterwards, we started to walk around the building. We skipped the tour.
I like this idea of an open area courtyard that look like cloisters. You can enjoy the outdoors on a nice weather. It is like a small park.
Then we stepped in the reading room called Bates Hall.
Nostalgia just hit me when I found traces of old fashioned library tool such as this card cabinet. I used to work for a library in my college days.
Then we look into the murals outside Bates Hall. It is by Puvis de Chavannes called Muses Welcoming the Genius of Enlightenment.
Going up the 3rd floor is the John Singer Sargent murals titled Triumph of Religion. It is his largest scale mural in which he worked on for thirty years. The sky lights on the roof make it possible to have the colors on the murals look vivid.
By the grand staircase, there were two large lions that were dedicated to the 2nd and 20th Massachusetts Volunteer Regiments of the Civil War.
The Boston Public Library has two sections: McKim building (the old library) and the Johnson building (the new one). Both libraries were connected by a walkway.
There is a large Children's Library inside the Johnson Building. They have books and ample space for toddlers to run and play.
We happened to attend a bubble presentation in the afternoon. My daughter even participated on the exhibition by standing inside a giant bubble.
I would recommend visiting the Boston Public Library at least once. Walk around the McKim Building, look around the reading rooms and the murals. There is a space for kids if you need a safe place for them to move around. We might stop by again if we are in the area. Maybe next time, I will sign up for the tour.
