We recently sat down with Sherri Stevens, Community Relations Specialist at Hannaford Supermarkets. We spoke about the partnerships Hannaford and Manchester Radio Group have worked on over the years. Here is what she had to say about working with the Manchester Radio Group:
How long have you been partnering with Manchester Radio Group? Hannaford has a long history with Manchester Radio Group, partnering with them on business promotions and events/programs that support the critical work of nonprofits in the communities we serve. We're very grateful for the wonderful relationship we have established over the years. We feel strongly that Manchester Radio Group not only has helped us to grow our business in New Hampshire but through shared values, we have collaborated to positively impact many individuals and families throughout the state.
What are some of the community promotions that you have partnered with WZID?
There have been many over the years, but here are recent and ongoing community partnerships that we have enjoyed:
The Annual 20 Outstanding Women program – recognizing 20 women each year in New Hampshire who volunteer their time and talents to make a significant impact in their communities.
The Tons of Turkeys food drive which takes place in 6 Manchester area Hannaford stores every November. Without a doubt, this is our favorite day of the year. It showcases the amazing generosity of people in the greater Manchester area. Customers and Hannaford associates purchase turkeys, holiday fixins', fight hunger boxes and gift cards to donate to New Horizons for NH for our neighbors who struggle with food insecurity. This event brings us all together as a community to the Thanksgiving table and demonstrates why we love being a part of that community.
For the past 2 years, we partnered with Manchester Radio Group and many other great businesses in the area to hold Art Jam festivals– to bring awareness and much-needed funds to nonprofits that are on the front lines, supporting our friends in the state who are affected by the opioid crisis.
Hannaford Associates Volunteerism Campaign, currently running on WZID, is designed to inspire others to volunteer while giving a window into the incredible culture in our business. Our associates care deeply about their local communities and give back in many ways. We're hoping that, by telling their stories, we are showcasing wonderful nonprofits in NH, and showing others how easy it can be to make a big difference in the lives of others.
Why has WZID (Manchester Radio Group) been such a successful Platform for your community promotions? First, we know our consumers lead busy lives, so radio is a great platform for reaching them. MRG has a big geographic reach and offers a variety of stations to connect with diverse segments of people in NH, which is critical in the consideration to partner with them.
Why do you keep coming back to partner with us? The associates at Manchester Radio Group are easy to work with, nimble, and innovative. We share the same business values in terms of ethics, quality of work, and (most importantly) humor. Our community initiatives have been successful because it's clear that they are as committed as we are to keeping NH communities healthy.

So far Aldi, Asda, Lidl, and Morrisons have launched their ranges and we've taken a closer look to find you the best deals.
We've compared prices for the best sparklers, rockets and finale boxes so that you know where to go to get the most bang for your buck.
Of course, fireworks can be dangerous so you'll need to take extra care if you're planning on lighting them yourself.
Remember, you need to be 18 or older to be able to buy fireworks so remember to bring your ID with you.
How do you safely light fireworks?
AS fireworks can be dangerous it is important to be very careful and take precautions on Bonfire Night:
- Make sure that you're buying your fireworks from somewhere reputable, for example: a supermarket or a specialist party retailer.
- Do not buy fireworks if the boxes look like they've been tampered with or damaged.
- Always read the packet carefully and make sure that the fireworks you buy are suitable for the place where you are going to set them off. Some fireworks can only be bought and used by professionals.
- Just one person should be in charge of fireworks, and this person should be sober.
- Always make sure you preparing in advance and in daylight.
- You should light fireworks at arm's length using a taper and stand well back.
- Sparklers can reportedly get five times hotter than cooking oil – so never give them to a child under five and make sure to wear gloves when you light them.
What are the firework deals at Aldi?
Aldi launched its fireworks range with prices starting from £1.29 but you'll need to hurry if you want to get your hands on them.
The fireworks went on sale on October 14 and they're part of the Specialbuy range which means that once they're gone, they're gone.

What are the firework deals at Asda?
Asda's range starts at 75p and goes up to a whopping £70 depending on what you want and how big your budget is.

THE BOND between people who are paranoid about Iran can be strong, which goes a long way in revealing the Trump-McMaster relationship.
Secretary of Defense Mattis is focused on deconfliction after ISIS is vanquished.
National security advisor H.R. McMaster is thinking more broadly.
From the L.A. Times over the weekend, via Axios.
Two days later, McMaster offered a different perspective. He called the war against Islamic State "one part of a much broader campaign" aimed at blocking transnational terrorist groups from taking root.
Speaking at the Center for a New American Security, a Washington think tank, he argued that Iran is a disruptive force and suggested U.S. policy in the post-Islamic State era will focus increasingly on isolating Tehran and preventing it from expanding its influence.
He gave few specifics beyond "pulling back the curtain" on Tehran's purported malign deeds, including support for Houthi rebels in Yemen and Shiite militias in Iraq, as well as Hezbollah in Lebanon.
We've seen this horror show before.
No one knows what happens in the aftermath of a post-ISIS Middle East but the LA Times article above informs us that experts are worried about it.
This week brings Trump's second foreign trip and the G20 summit.
The current American President is so in over his head he's the only one who doesn't know it.

If you are born in the '70s or the '80s, you will, like me, remember that in the '90s The Heeran once housed HMV. I personally spent countless of hours listening to music at the numerous listening stations in HMV. I spent a lot of time and money at HMV.
Fast forward to almost 30 years later and CD sales are dead and so is HMV. The Heeren has reinvented itself with an anchor tenant, Robinsons and is now called Robinsons The Heeren. I was in the mood for some burgers and I spotted &Made Burger Bistro while driving past with my family.
&Made Burger Bistro is by Deliciae Hospitality Management of DHM for short. It is located along the open pathways outside Robinsons.
It is literally three restaurants in one. You can order food from &Made, Ange Cafe or Sabio. Prices are rather reasonable considering the fact that we were in Orchard Road. The ambience of the restaurant was very cosy. It was exceptionally clean and welcoming.
Sabio is this Spanish Tapas restaurant that is located at Quayside Isle, Sentosa Cove. The menu in this outlet is rather similar to the one at Quayside Isle. You can choose to sit on the ground level which is open air or on the second level where you can choose to sit in an open-air environment or in an airconditioned setting.
The burgers were very good. We ordered the B Burger, The Chicken Burger and the N.Y. Bacon Burger. The Chicken Burger was exceptionally good. The patty was very juicy and there is a tangy taste to the chicken. However, I would have expected chips or better quality fries to go with the burgers. The fries are something you would get at MacDonald's. The interesting part was their gourmet house-made ketchup which was like a sour version of traditional sambal sauce.
Oh and just for good measure, I had to try something from Sabio's menu so I had the Atun A La Parrilla. Ok, that's a mouthful. It's essentially grilled tuna steak.
Oh, it was really good. One thing about this place, they just cannot get their sides right. Other than that, their mains are awesome.
One more thing, they have the most stylish salt and pepper dispenser…

Address: 4853 Main Street, Vancouver, BC
Long's Noodle House is a very… cozy restaurant. That's the polite way of describing way. To put it more bluntly, the restaurant is a hole in a wall. It has very few seats, and on busy nights, you would have to share table with other patrons. Nonetheless, we've heard good things about the food!
Wine Chicken – $7.95
Drunken chicken! The presentation was pretty neat, as it looked like they dunked a whole chicken leg in Chinese cooking wine, and let it cook slowly. Though the portion was small, the chicken was delicious. Texture-wise, the meat was tender, and it practically slid off the bone. Flavour-wise, we could hardly taste the alcohol content, most of it evaporated (presumably). The remaining "juice" was very aromatic.
Yang Chow Syle Fried Rice (楊州炒飯) – $9.50
Classic fried rice that has pretty much everything – BBQ meat, shrimp, egg, and peas. As an avid fried rice fan, I could say that this was cooked very well :P. Texture was fluffy, and flavour was well-balanced. One more bonus point for not putting so much oil!

Civic Discourse, Truth, and the Future of Journalism
National industry leaders in journalism gathered yesterday afternoon for a discussion on the topic of "Civic Discourse, Truth, and the Future of Journalism" at the Walter Cronkite School of Journalism and Mass Communication in Downtown Phoenix, AZ. The discussion served as the kick-off to the annual CEOs for Cities National Meeting, which Columbus served as host to in 2016.
The journalism discussion was opened with some historical perspective illustrated by Leonard Downie, Former Executive Editor & VP of The Washington Post. Via Skype, he recalled a time when the American public was served by three television stations, a handful of national periodicals and dependable local newspaper outlets. He went on to say that contemporary news publications have faced a lot of new challenges.
"The digital revolution has undermined the financial model of the news business," he explained. "Anyone can be an editor in chief, and as a result there's not as many agreed upon facts anymore. People are seeking out their own stories and their own facts, which coincides with a gradual polarization of the country. That started with the Vietnam War and has gotten worse in recent years."
Eric Newton, founding Managing Editor of Newseum, agreed with Downie on the challenges that the industry faces, but explained that a look in the mirror was needed to figure out who was to blame. He said that when the users of social platforms like Facebook and Twitter are the ones who share fake news stories from unreliable sources, the blame can't be fully placed upon the digital platforms themselves.
"We are the weak link in the communications delivery system," stated Newton. "Our population is expressing difficulty in telling the difference between news and opinion, between news and advertisements, and between real news and fabricated news. We are not as news literate as we need to be."
When it comes to national and global news, Julia Wallace, former Editor-in-Chief of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, is bullish, but expresses a growing concern for local media.
"We have a huge national ecosystem getting better and stronger," she stated. "Vox, Vice, Politico… there are a lot of new players doing great work in all sorts of areas. But I am very concerned about the economics of the local press and concerned about people feeling connected. People need strong local information."
She went on to point out that the U.S. has an issue with "news deserts" — communities that are lacking in local journalism the same way that "food deserts" are causing nutritional issues in neighborhoods with food insecurity problems.
"The number of reporters and journalists is diminishing quickly — with newspapers in particular, but also in radio and TV," she added. "There has been a significant change over the past year, and there is so much focus on Washington that we're not paying attention to our own communities. There's equally interesting changes going on in the places where we live."
Phil Boas, Editorial Department Director at The Arizona Republic echoed similar views on the changes with technology, but made a point that the effects of disruption are not isolated to just the news publishing industry.
"We are in a moment of global technological change that affects economies dramatically," he explained. "The steamroller that is the internet came in and changed our business model. But if I could switch places with a journalism student today, I would do it in a heartbeat. The business that I came into was well established — print has been around for hundreds of years and we were operated the same way they did in Ben Franklin's day. New journalism students have all kinds of tools to tell stories with, and new skills that all serve to tell the story in ways we've never done before."

Mold Testing & Inspection Company in Louisiana
Serving New Orleans, Baton Rouge, Shreveport, and Lafayette, Louisiana
Louisiana knows humidity and that means that Louisiana knows mold. Whether you're in the bayou or up north, odds are you've got an advanced degree in fighting mold and mildew. As a result of hurricanes and the incredible number of severe storms and it's a recipe for mold in places you'd never expect mold to end up.
If you think you may have symptoms of mold sickness, there are two important steps to take. At first call Mold Test USA to schedule an inspection of your home. Secondly, make an appointment with your doctor to make sure that you are not experiencing a serious health problem.
What Are the Symptoms of Mold Sickness?
- Chronic fatigue
- Drowsiness
- Weakness
- Muscle pain
- Jaundice
- Red or bloodshot eyes
- Low blood pressure
- Irregular heartbeat
- Bleeding gums
- Migraines
- Respiratory ailments
- Anxiety
- Depression
The list goes on too long to include everything, but as you can see, mold sickness is dangerous and should be taken seriously.
What is the Difference Between Black Mold and Toxic Mold?
When people say, "black mold" they usually mean Stachybotrys. Stachybotrys is a mold that is both toxic and black, and also the most dangerous mold that we know of. That said, not all black mold is toxic and not all toxic mold is black. With over 100,000 unique varieties of mold. Identifying the mold in your home is literally impossible unless you work with a scientific lab.
Stachybotrys is a very tricky mold. Because the spore is sticky, it is rare that it can be detected with an air test. It also likes to grow in places that are dark and damp, which means it hides in all sorts of places that make it hard to find. That's why it is so important to have your home or business inspected for mold from time to time. There are several mold spores besides Stachybotrys that carry mycotoxins (toxic mold spores), so color really means little in the way of mold toxicity.
Non-toxic molds, however, are great things that make most of our lives better every day! Penicillium is a mold that gives us both penicillin, blue cheese, and brie! Not to mention those delicious mushrooms on your pizza are a fungus, a close cousin to mold. The purpose of mold is so as to break down organic material naturally. Without it, we would all live on top of huge mounds of rotting garbage. Slowly going nowhere and smelling to the high heavens.
With all that praise of non-toxic molds, it is important to remember that if you are sensitive to mold, even non-toxic mold can cause mold sickness and even more should be taken seriously.

9 thoughts on "What happened to Donald Trump? The 'Kushner Coup' inside The White House"

So much for your brilliant Kushner take. His only mission ends in a jail cell.
So much for your brilliant Kushner take. His only mission ends in a jail cell.
Why were you so easily duped by Trump? All of this was known long before the election. How can we trust your analysis if it's so easy to fool you. You have admitted you were fooled also by Obama. You need to reflect about the flaws in your thinking and perceptions. I think an apology is in order. Other than that I really respect a lot of your work.
Kushner was primed for the advocacy of Jewish Zionism during his college years. His involvement with the college-based Chabad was a particularly important part of his resumé-building.

More lies from Trump when he failed to honor promises to save priceless artifacts from the building destroyed to build his Tower; more proof his is nothing but a liar, con artist and bum without a conscience and rapist of the planet:
Definition of CONSCIENCE
1. 1a : the sense or consciousness of the moral goodness or blameworthiness of one's own conduct, intentions, or character together with a feeling of obligation to do right or be good She had a guiltyconscience.b : a faculty, power, or principle enjoining good acts guided byconscience
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trump_Tower Quote: "Trump had originally promised that the Bonwit Teller building's Art Deco exterior limestone bas-relief sculptures of semi-nude goddesses, as well as the massive ornate 15-by-25 foot grille above the store's entrance, would be removed and be donated to the Metropolitan Museum of Art.[3][15][16]The museum appraised the sculptures at over $200,000.[17] However, the sculptures ended up being destroyed because, according to Trump, there were general hazard concerns, expense, and a possible 10-day construction delay due to the difficulty of removing them.[3][15] The Met's curator, Penelope Hunter-Stiebel, caught a cab to the building site and attempted to pay the workmen for the sculptures, but was rebuffed.[18] The building's decorative grille, supposedly transported to a New Jersey warehouse, was never recovered.[15] Instead the sculptures and grilles became scrap metal, and several days later, Trump stated that he had ordered the destruction himself.[16] Later in 1980, he boasted that the decor of his Grand Hyatt New York included "real art, not like the junk I destroyed at Bonwit Teller".[19] The New York Times condemned Trump's actions as "esthetic vandalism",[20] and a spokesman for Mayor Ed Koch said Trump had failed his "moral responsibility to consider the interests of the people of the city".[16] Scutt was outraged by the destruction, having initially hoped to incorporate the goddess sculptures into the new building's lobby design; Trump had rejected the plan, preferring something "more contemporary".[15] Robert Miller, the gallery owner who had appraised the pieces, lamented that such things would "never be made again", and Peter M. Warner, a researcher who worked across the street, called the destruction "regrettable".[21]"
The late Wayne Barrett documented that Trump was a liar and con artist in NY for over 30 years. No one paid any attention to his great efforts before the election. Here is a brief quote: Trump and his Father blatantly discriminated against blacks in rental housing and lied under oath to federal prosecutors among many examples; Trump tried to both bribe and then threaten Barrett to silence him but it didn't work.
"Similarly, in his deposition in the federal discrimination case, Trump refused to acknowledge responsibility for accepting or rejecting individual tenants. Those statements were a material part of his testimony since they went to the heart of the case — Trump's ability to control the discriminatory practices of his companies.
Shortly after he'd given his deposition, he was interviewed by a field investigator for the secretary of state. The interview had nothing to do with the federal case; the investigator was trying to determine if Trump met the experience requirement for a real-estate broker's license. The report states: "Mr. Trump further stated that he supervises and controls the renting of all apartments owned by the Trump organization…During my interview with applicant he showed me hundreds of files…Each contained numerous leases both for commercial and residential tenants…and rental records, all of which contained applicant's signature and handwriting." Trump's lawyer, Mathew Tosti, also claimed in a letter to the secretary of state that Trump had "negotiated numerous leases for apartments."
Yet he'd testified in federal court:
Government: "Do you ever have anything to do with rental decisions in individual cases?
Trump: "No, I really don't."
Donald Trump is a user of other users. The politician and his moneychanger feed on each other. The moneychanger trades private dollars for access to public ones. Trump, Sunshine, Lindenbaum, and their counterparts Carey and Beame are classic expressions of this relationship. The transactions that result are contained in the father's story of Trump Village and in next week's account of Trump's Manhattan conquests." Trump was a blatant liar under oath and should have been jailed for his crimes.
OK. If Jared Kushner is in charge of America then what is his response to the Alaskan EW Khibiny shutdown? I believe if he is President then he will show it by either a NULL response (I think Mr Trump would react to this in a public and responsible way) or by fleeing to Patagonia. My bet is NULL and that to me is proof of his Presidency.
"Jared Kushner, Suspected Gangster" at Strategic-culture.org has details of US Attorney Chi's Christy prosecution of Charles Kushner.
"Life of an American Jew in Israel" at VeteransToday.com has inside of Zionist police state.

My Blog
Posts for: May, 2016
Via a recent Instagram post, pop diva Ariana Grande became the latest young celebrity to publicly acknowledge a dental milestone: having her wisdom teeth removed. The singer of hits such as "Break Free" and "Problem" posted an after-surgery picture of herself (wearing her signature cat-eye eyeliner), with a caption addressed to her teeth: "Peace out, final three wisdom teeth. It's been real."
With the post, Grande joined several other celebs (including Lily Allen, Paris Hilton and Emile Hirsch) who have shared their dental surgery experience with fans. Will "wisdom teeth removal" become a new trending topic on social media? We aren't sure — but we can explain a bit about the procedure, and why many younger adults may need it.
Technically called the "third molars," wisdom teeth usually begin to emerge from the gums between the ages of 17 and 25 — presumably, around the same time that a certain amount of wisdom emerges. Most people have four of these big molars, which are located all the way in the back of the mouth, on the left and right sides of the upper and lower jaws.
But when wisdom teeth begin to appear, there's often a problem: Many people don't have enough space in their jaws to accommodate them. When these molars lack sufficient space to fully erupt (emerge), they are said to be "impacted." Impacted teeth can cause a number of serious problems: These may include pain, an increased potential for bacterial infections, periodontal disease, and even the formation of cysts (pockets of infection below the gum line), which can eventually lead to tooth and bone loss.
In most cases, the best treatment for impacted wisdom teeth is extraction (removal) of the problem teeth. Wisdom tooth extraction is a routine, in-office procedure that is usually performed under local anesthesia or "conscious sedation," a type of anesthesia where the patient remains conscious (able to breathe normally and respond to stimuli), but is free from any pain or distress. Anti-anxiety medications may also be given, especially for those who are apprehensive about dental procedures.
So if you find you need your wisdom teeth extracted, don't be afraid to "Break Free" like Ariana Grande did; whether you post the results on social media is entirely up to you. If you would like more information about wisdom tooth extraction, please call our office to schedule a consultation. You can learn more in the Dear Doctor magazine articles "Wisdom Teeth" and "Removing Wisdom Teeth."
You may think your blood pressure is only important to your general health — but it can also affect your dental care. That's why it's increasingly common for dental providers to include blood pressure monitoring for patients during routine visits.
High blood pressure is a risk factor for several major health conditions including heart attack, stroke and diabetes, and is one of the most common diagnoses in the United States. Even so, many people don't know their blood pressure is abnormally high. It may be discovered during an annual health visit, or not at all. Since many people visit their dentist twice a year for cleanings, taking a blood pressure reading during these visits increases the chance of detecting a high pressure.
In one study published in the Journal of the American Dental Association, the researchers looked at dental patients who had not seen a doctor in the previous twelve months and who underwent blood pressure screening during a regular dental visit. Seventeen percent of those studied learned they were at increased risk for cardiovascular disease.
High blood pressure can also have a direct effect on how we treat your teeth and gums. For example, we may have to adapt and become more diligent about preventing dental disease if you're taking a blood pressure drug that could trigger reduced saliva flow (dry mouth), a factor in tooth decay. Certain local anesthetics may also contain substances like epinephrine that constrict blood vessels, which can increase blood pressure. To avoid this if you're hypertensive, we may need to adjust the dosage of anesthetic drugs to lessen this effect.
Monitoring blood pressure in the dental office is a good example of how all healthcare services can interact with each other. At the very least, a blood pressure check at your next cleaning could alert you to a potentially dangerous condition you didn't even know you had.
If you would like more information on the relationship of blood pressure and other medical issues to dental health, please contact us or schedule an appointment for a consultation. You can also learn more about this topic by reading the Dear Doctor magazine article "Monitoring Blood Pressure."

Arvind Kejriwal invites Sheila Dikshit for public debate
Arvind Kejriwal dared Delhi Chief Minister Sheila Dikshit for a public debate ahead of the Delhi Assembly Elections to be held on Dec 4, 2013.
Sheila Dikshit had said, "Let Arvind Kejriwal write to me officially, laying out the format and the terms and conditions and I will look into these. I am not shy of a political debate. I have debated with Sushma Swaraj in the past. Public debates are healthy in a democracy."
Responding to Sheila Dikshit statement, Kejriwal said, "I am writing you this letter as some of the editors suggested that I should invite you formally. I am inviting you formally and if you find it right then we should also ask Dr Harsh Vardhan to participate on behalf of BJP."
"My only suggestion is that such debate should not be held in a television studio but in Ramlila ground or any other pubic places where citizen of Delhi could come and directly ask questions," Kejriwal said.
"We can sit together and work out the finer details for the debate," he added.

Jaws IV (oz11435)
About this Plan
Jaws IV. Radio control twin sport model for electric power with 2 x Speed 400 motors. Wingspan 36 in, wing area 288 sq in.
Note the Jaws II (oz11434) and Jaws IV plans both apppeared in the same article, in RCME Aug 199. See the Jaws II (oz11434) listing for the full article.
Quote: "With the hooligan phase over, the socially conscious era dawned, with JAWS-4, This was to be an electric powered version; quiet, compact, and easy to fly - all that woolly jumper stuff. Mind you, I was still reeking of 30% nitro, so I wasn't going to let 'electric' mean 'no performance'. From the weight analyses of the previous JAWS, I knew I wanted a certain wing loading, yet felt that a single Speed 400 would not give me the go I wanted. Suddenly, the idea of a twin seemed exciting, and an electric twin is so hassle-free to fly! The sums showed that I needed a little more wing area whilst a flat bottom wing section would help carry the weight with less drag. Well, go it certainly does - probably as fast if not faster than JAWS-1, which in turn is no slow-coach. It really does feel like IC performance in an electric plane - its aerobatic performance is that good! It also glides fast but flat!"

The Credit field in the Outerzone database is designed to recognise and credit the hard work done in scanning and digitally cleaning these vintage and old timer model aircraft plans to get them into a usable format. Currently, it is also used to credit people simply for uploading the plan to a forum on the internet. Which is not quite the same thing. This will change soon. Probably.
This model plan (like all plans on Outerzone) is supposedly scaled correctly and supposedly will print out nicely at the right size. But that doesn't always happen. If you are about to start building a model plane using this free plan, you are strongly advised to check the scaling very, very carefully before cutting any balsa wood.

A MUCH-loved Somerset charity shop has a fresh new look after moving to a new location.
Leading veterinary charity PDSA, which provides free and reduced cost treatment to pets, has relocated its Yeovil shop to 20 Middle Street.
The shop will sell pre-loved and new items, plus pet products, all at bargain prices, with profits helping to fund the charity's nationwide service.
The shop was officially opened by radio presenter and Yeovil resident Paul Peters.
Paul is no stranger to PDSA, having spent 14 years working with the charity. Paul was also the area assistant secretary when PDSA first entered the world of retail in the 1970s.
He said: "I am honoured to open the new-look PDSA Shop here in Yeovil, and I would like to congratulate everyone on their hard work in making this a reality.
"PDSA has always been close to my heart and over the years, I have witnessed first-hand how the funds raised from shops like Yeovil has made a difference to poorly and sick pets across the country. PDSA shops have come a long way since the 1970s.
"I remember there being no proper tills in the early shops, just a biscuit tin or desk drawer to put the takings in.
"The new shop has a truly modern feel and looks fantastic.
"I would encourage people to check out the brilliant new shop too and find some bargains and help provide a lifetime of wellbeing for local pets."
Shop manager, Debbie Sherwood, said: "We're very excited be in a new shop and prime location in Yeovil.
"The response so far has been fantastic but we still need support of local pet lovers.
"So if you're having a clean or de-cluttering your home, why not donate your unwanted items to us?
"We're appealing for all types of donations, clothing, homeware, DVDs, furniture and electrical items. And every penny we raise will help local sick and injured pets."
Debbie added: "We're looking for enthusiastic volunteers, who are passionate about pets, to lend a hand when the shop opens.
"Volunteering is fun and the skills you learn look great on any CV, plus you get to meet new people and make some friends along the way.
"No previous retail experience is needed, as full training will be provided."
To find out more about the shop, to make a donation or to find out more about volunteering please call 01935 423603.

Kid Rock doesn't appear to be playing around about running for the Senate.
He first made the announcement a few weeks ago, which sent Democrats into a panic after President Trump won the White House against all odds. Since then, he's been polling well above the incumbent Democrat, Debbie Stabenow, and now it appears as if he's taking another significant step in trying to become one of the next Senators to represent Michigan.
Breitbart News is reporting that Rock, whose real name is Robert Ritchie, will be holding voter registration drives at all of his concerts, taking a page right out of the liberal playbook. In a blog post announcing the move, Rock stated he wanted to get younger voters more energized and involved, and that it's time to get rid of the "jackass lawyers who call themselves politicians."
When my name was thrown out there for US Senate I decided to launch kidrockforsenate.com. I was beyond overwhelmed with…
Posted by Kid Rock on Wednesday, July 26, 2017
The post reads, in part:
"When my name was thrown out there for US Senate I decided to launch kidrockforsenate.com. I was beyond overwhelmed with the response I received from community leaders, D.C. pundits, and blue-collar folks that are just simply tired of the extreme left and right bullshit.
"As part of the excitement surrounding this possible campaign, I decided to take a hard look to see if there was real support for me as a candidate and my message or if it was just because it was a fresh new news story. The one thing I've seen over and over is that although people are unhappy with the government, too few are even registered to vote or do anything about it.
"We have over a year left until an actual election, so my first order of business is to get people engaged and registered to vote while continuing to put out my ideas on ways to help working class people in Michigan and America all while still calling out these jackass lawyers who call themselves politicians."
Rock stated that all proceeds from any merchandise he sells will go toward his get out the vote efforts.
Should he actually run, he stands a pretty good chance at winning, if the election were to be held today. Recent polling showed him with a 54-46 percent advantage over Stabenow, which can't be sitting well with the Democrats.
"One thing is for sure though…The democrats are 'shattin' in their pantaloons' right now…and rightfully so!" he wrote.
Indeed they are, and they're going to continue to do so as long as they keep up with their disastrous policies.

I had to log in again after I lost my password.
I had been trying to reset my password, then sort of gave up.
Now I'm trying to reset it again, but it just refuses to let me.
Any ideas?
I see... Can you send me a private message, or respond to the one I sent you? I can change the password for the balscarlet account. I'll give it to you then you can change it whatever you like.
message edited by Justin Weber
After you are logged in, if you click here: http://www.computing.net/cgi-bin/my... and try to change the password there, it what happens?
HI, there, Justin, and thanks for your quick response. First of all, the link Computing. Net gave me to reset it doesn't have a section for the old password.
But, anyways, when I type in my new password, and, also, there's a security code I need to punch in, I keep getting Error:Password.
I have tried it several times, and I believe, this is what happened also when I lost my roboform info & had to log in again.
Also, BTW, I am acturally balscarlet. t like that better, just saying. When I couldn't seem to get in at all, I made a new account. But, computing sent the recovery email to my main email address. which I had used for the account with balscarlet.
Thank you so much.
Hang in there with Justin - he runs this website.
Always pop back and let us know the outcome - thanks
Hello, Derek,
Thank you very much for your words of encouragement!!! I appreciate that so.
Most nice to know that someone who really knows how all that goes on behind the scenes works. But, appreciate ALL you guys's who have responded when I have had a problem, & didn't know where else to turn!!!
PCs_are_super(also known as balscarlet)
Excuse me, Justin,
I hope this can be accomplished.
A. For me to get my old user name back.
B. And, although not as important, 'cuz I'm sure it's associated with balscarlet, my old email address. Either that or wipe everything clean, both user accounts, and let me register again? I kind think that's not possible, but, just askin'!
Thanks so much, Justin,
PCs_are_super(or, also known as balscarlet)
The link works for me. Old password on top (already filled in), a line for the new password, & a line to confirm the new password.
Try clearing out your cookies, history, & temp files. If you don't already have it, use CCleaner-Slim:
For reasons unknown mine doesn't have the old password already filled in but I do get a box for Old Password. Has yours got this?
I don't know how you change your user name though.
Always pop back and let us know the outcome - thanks

Riider, yes, I DEFO use CCleaner, and I clean my PC every day. Sometimes more than once. So, couldn't be that, Also, I use Firefox, and have it set to clear history when I close my browser.
But, thanks for the suggestion!!
Derek, thanks for your concern, but I said previously that there is no box for old password, and I have to fill in a security code.
AND, just saying, I use roboform password manager, and since I am using facebook to log in, it got weird on me when I try to log into facebook.
Can't log into facebook with the passcard, but when I go online, click on facebook, I get logged in. I know that that's a problem with roboform, Hope I can get this resolved. so I can make a passcard for here AND for facebook.
BTW, you know where Justin is? Hope he can help me! Sorry, don't mean to be unappreciative, but, you DID say to hang in there with him!
Thanks so much.
Click on the link given in #1 once more. If you don't see an "Old Password" box then something on your computer must be preventing it - maybe your password manager. I see the same three lines that riider gave in #6.
Don't know about security code - do you mean one of those things where you have to copy the letters?
Sorry, don't know where Justin has gone, probably been called away.
Always pop back and let us know the outcome - thanks

Hi, Derek,
Well, yea, the link comes with an option for old password. That's how I knew to tell Justin that there was no option for inputting old password, or not, I wouldn't have had a clue.
And, yes, the security code is the thing with the letters that some places ask you to do so you can prove you're not a robot(or a cat, I guess! LOL).
But, now my problem is I do not remember my old password. I haven't a a clue, so,
well, I certainly hope that someone can possibly delete all my accounts, and then I can start fresh! That would be so cool!!!
Well, anyways, thanks for letting me vent.
I can think up great strong passwords, but IDs are not my strong suit!!! I have been using balscarlet on so many sites. Too bad you can't just use your email address here. Unless I make a new account with that? But then, what if it rejects my email address? But, then I could use my other email box that I associated with PCs_are_super???
Thanks for your help, Derek,
Only Justin or one of the moderators can sort out the accounts stuff. If Justin doesn't pop back you can always send him a personal message. If you're not sure where to find that feature click here:
Make sure you put the recipients name "exactly" as written in #1, two words each lower case but with initial capitals.
Always pop back and let us know the outcome - thanks
Thank you so much, Derek. You're a dear.
Well, when I decided to ask about my prob, I couldn't find like, support or something like that. So, I had to ask here on the forum.
I'll wait a few days, and if Justin doesn't come back on here, I'll try that.
Appreciate your wanting to help me!! Sigh, it's just, well, almost(starts pulling out hair).
Sorry for the delay.
Which account are you trying to recover the password for? balscarlet? I'm not sure I understand the problem. You're saying it sent you a recovery e-mail, but it didn't work?
Or are you saying you want to reset the password for PCs_are_super account? If you want to reset that one, you'll have to use this form: http://www.computing.net/cgi-bin/my... with the e-mail address you used to create that account.
If you'd like me to change the e-mail on PCs_are_super to the one currently on barscarlet, I can do that as well.

HI, Justin,
Sorry for any confusion. OK, it's like this.
A. I had(or have), the account balscarlet. But, like I said, some months ago, when I needed to make a new passcard for my roboform password manager, I had the most difficult time.
B. I had to reset the password, then after that, had the darndest time trying to log in.
C. So, I created the account PCs_are_super
D. Bottom line is, I want my balscarlet account BACK!
Is it possible to delete the PCs_are_super account, and let me try & reset the password on balscarlet? If it is, great. If you ask me, I think the system has the 2 accounts sort of confused since the email addresses are very similar.
'Cuz, all I want is my balscarlet account.
Again, thank you so much & sorry for any trouble.
I don't know what happened when I reset my password & I simply couldn't log in after that. It became sort of like this account I have with another site, where I can't use my log in info, I have to use facebook to log in.
PCs_are_super(also known as balscarlet)
Hi, Justin,
Also, I tried to reset my password on my balscarlet account to see.
I get spaces for a new password, no old password, and I need to punch in a security code.
When I do that, it still tells me Error:Password.
I think I told you in my first post, but the post is cut short, doesn't show the beginning with my explanation of what happened.
Thanks, Justin.
I see... Can you send me a private message, or respond to the one I sent you? I can change the password for the balscarlet account. I'll give it to you then you can change it whatever you like.

Jianan Li: New Method of fabricating high-mobility graphene/LaAlO₃/SrTiO₃ nanostructures
Graphene and LaAlO3/SrTiO3 (LAO/STO) are both two-dimensional electronic systems with a fascinating range of properties. The coupling between these two 2DEG's has the potential to produce various novel phenomena and create new functionalities. Successful integration of these two systems must overcome a number of technical challenges. Graphene-complex-oxide (GCO) heterostructures are created using Hyflon AD (2,2,4-trifluoro-5 trifluoromethoxy-1,3 dioxole) as a support layer for transferring and patterning CVD graphene on LAO/STO. This approach has advantages over more traditional methods that use Poly(Methyl Methacrylate) (PPMA) to transfer CVD graphene in that the Hyflon is easier to remove from the oxide surface after processing. To test the quality of GCO heterostructures, a graphene Hall bar structure is created. The quantum Hall regime can routinely be reached in the graphene layer, while preserving the ability of the LAO/STO to be patterned using AFM lithography. This approach opens up the possibility for the exploration of a wide range of GCO devices.

Big F1 teams working on plan to replace Ecclestone
Mercedes and Red Bull have joined Ferrari in reportedly deposing Formula 1's long-time supremo Bernie Ecclestone from his 'throne' at the helm of the sport.
Reports recently suggested Ferrari president Sergio Marchionne had proposed that the 85-year-old Briton be replaced by a new, three-pronged leadership team.
When asked about the viability of Ecclestone's continuing reign, Mercedes chief Toto Wolff told the German news agency DPA: "Some may think they are immortal, and that performance remains the same.
"However, there is a great responsibility to the sport to do what is right for the future," he added.
Red Bull's Helmut Marko has a similar view, backing Marchionne's vision of a three-person leadership team perhaps involving Niki Lauda.
"When I think about the sporting side, then for me Niki Lauda is one of the hottest candidates," he told Tiroler Tageszeitung newspaper, referring to the F1 legend and Mercedes' team chairman and co-owner.
As for speculation Wolff might be another candidate, the 44-year-old himself answered: "I have a plan, but it's too early to talk about it. I enjoy the role I have at Mercedes.
"I have the support of the board, Daimler and the team, so in this respect I have very good conditions to pursue my objectives with Mercedes," Wolff added.
What is clear, however, is that the anti-Ecclestone rhetoric is heating up amid an intense political climate in F1 at present.
Referring to recent headlines attracted by controversial comments by Ecclestone, Wolff said: "Irrationality and excessive emotion has no place in the job.
"Times change, we live in a digital world and to cause headlines like that every few days without thinking about it is certainly not the right way," he added.

|Candice grapes ready to harvest, photo courtesy John Crawford
Grape growers anticipate this time of year all season long. If Mother Nature has been cooperative, it's finally time to take off the nets and harvest grapes. John Crawford, my neighbor in NE Lakewood, has been growing grapes and making wine for over three decades.
Not every year is successful for grape growers. Last summer John's efforts paid off with a bumper crop of over 40 pounds of Canadice grapes from 5 vines. This summer, the grape harvest was greatly diminished because of the late snow, frost and destructive May hailstorm. These late spring freezes destroy the fragile grapes in their earliest stages of growth. Some of John's grapevines are 11 years old, and he has harvested grapes in only six of those years. That's about what you'd expect in Colorado, given the fact that grapevines don't generally produce grapes until the third year, and spring freezes are common.
|Crushing and de-steming, photo courtesy John Crawford

After harvesting, John took his grapes to Do Your Brew in Westminster for crushing. There, he and the owner crushed and de-stemmed the grapes and then pressed them in a hydraulic press to get the most juice. The 35 pounds of grapes yielded 3.5 gallons of juice. The resultant Crawford Castle wine is scheduled for bottling in time for holiday gift giving.
If you are thinking about growing grapes, check out CSU Extension's publications: Growing Grapes in Colorado Gardens and Colorado Grape Growers' Guide.

If you had told me as a freshman that I would spend my entire junior year away from Skidmore, I would have told you that you're crazy. After all, I loved Skidmore's campus and all that it had to offer! Who would want to be away from friends and family for that long?
My name is Rachel McPherson and I studied off-campus in Freiburg, Germany and Washington, DC. As a political science major, I could not have picked better programs! While in Germany, I was able to study the institutions of the European Union and see just how different the political climate is across the Atlantic. I travelled to over fifteen different countries and met with countless foreign diplomats who offered their insights and expertise on European Union politics and policies. The opportunity was like nothing I had ever experienced before and profoundly shaped how I viewed American politics.
After returning from Germany, I spent a semester at American University in Washington, DC. This program combines classroom studies with an internship experience so that students can apply the concepts they learn while networking in the nation's capital. I chose the "American Politics" concentration and found that it drastically changed the course of my career. I was able to deepen my understanding of domestic issues and connect with industry professionals at a level that otherwise would not have been available to me. It was due to the connections made in DC that I received (and accepted) an internship offer for that very summer.
Now that I am back at Skidmore, I'm getting used to the "traditional" college experience again; namely, taking classes five days per week, writing papers, and participating in group projects. I profoundly miss traveling across Europe or reading on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial, but there's nothing quite like coming home to Skidmore's campus.

Blancpain Villeret Demi-Fuseau Horaire (PRE-Baselworld 2011)
Blancpain presents its first Half-Time-Zone watch
In 2011, Blancpain is pursuing the reinterpretation of its Villeret collection initiated in 2010. The Manufacture du Brassus is offering an exclusive preview of its first Villeret Demi-Fuseau Horaire, a model that serves to adjust the second time zone in half-hour increments. Travellers to countries with half-hour time-zone differences, such as India, will thus be equally punctual while in those particular destinations!
Blancpain's first ever dual time-zone model is extremely user-friendly. A few turns of the crown are enough to perform all adjustments on this watch: date, time zone and reference time. A pusher located on the head of the crown serves to select fast correction or half time-zone adjustment mode. It is worth noting that correcting the reference time automatically modifies that of the second time zone.
The smooth and easy handling of this half-time-zone function is the physical expression of the ingenuity displayed by the Manufacture in Le Brassus in developing its Calibre 5254DF. This new 321-part self-winding mechanism is endowed with a 72-hour power reserve. It displays the reference time at 12 o'clock; the half-time-zone and seconds in the centre; the day/night indication for the reference time at 9 o'clock; the date which changes in step with the second time-zone at 6 o'clock; and the Date Change (D) or Time-Zone (F) indication at 4 o'clock. It is a further demonstration of Blancpain's incredible spirit of innovation and now takes its place in the brand's movement parade that began in 2006.
The Villeret Demi-Fuseau Horaire features a half-hunter case in red gold fitted with a sapphire crystal case-back revealing the finesse of the movement and of the guilloché-work oscillating weight. The subtly engine-turned opaline dial is enhanced by red gold hour-markers, and the watch is fitted with an alvazel-lined leather strap.
Movement – Caliber 5254DF. Self-winding. Thickness – 5,35 mm. Diameter – 32,00 mm. Power-reserve in hours – 72. Jewels – 28. Components – 321.
Functions – "Timezone 30 minutes Demi-Savonnette", half-time-zone, date.
Case – Red Gold. Thickness – 12,12 mm. Diameter – 40,00 mm.
Dial – Engine-turned opaline dial.
Sapphire – Crystal back.
Interhorn space – 22,00 mm.
Water-resistance – 3 bar.
Strap – Alvazel-lined leather strap.

Farron Cousins writes at DeSmog Blog about a new report by the Bull Moose Sportsmen Alliance. According to Cousins:
...the hunting and fishing group highlights the damage that the dirty energy industry has done to their hunting and fishing grounds for years. Among the more damning findings are the fact that there are over 100 oil spills every year in just three counties in Colorado – Garfield, Mesa, and Rio Blanco. The state of Colorado has confirmed that no fewer than 77 of these spills managed to taint water supplies of the three counties. These spills combined have leaked more than 5.6 million gallons of oil into the lands that the Bull Moose Sportsmen Alliance works to preserve.
As the Alliance points out, the hunting and fishing industry in Colorado brings in more than $1.2 billion a year, making it more profitable than the sports industry in the state, which includes NFL, NBA, and MLB teams. But thanks to the reckless oil and gas industry, the ecosystems and habitat that hunters and fishermen spend that billion-plus dollars to enjoy are threatened.
The question is, why aren't the enormous damages to public lands, water, peoples' livelihoods, and everyone's quality of life ever mentioned when the dirty energy industry brags about how "cheap" coal, oil, and "fracked" natural gas are? Here's one hint.

Features of SIP Trunk services
SIP Trunk is responsible for enabling the end point's Phone Exchange System to make and receive calls through the internet. It can also control voice, video and messaging applications.
SIP.US is one of the preeminent SIP Trunk Providers, ensuring the satisfaction of their customers. After availing the services of SIP.US, you can use the directory assistance services, send and receive local as well as long distance calls, have access to both landline and mobile numbers, make 911 emergency calls and utilize the Internet for email and texting.
Features of SIP Trunk Services
Affordable network:
Use of ENUM:
Reduced cost of long-distance communication:
Elimination of Basic Primary Rates and Primary Rate Interfaces:
You do not need to have both data and telephone networks. The IP-based network offers you multiple digital streaming capabilities. This also eradicates the need for modifying physical infrastructure for additional users. SIP.US has become the Best SIP Trunk Provider because of its cost-effective services.
When you use Telephone Number Mapping for finding your known SIP addresses, you will be able to complete more calls via the Internet, eliminating the need for PSTN.
The long distance calls are rendered inexpensive by SIP trunking. After your PSTN connection is outsourced to a SIP trunking third party, you can save a lot of money because SIP calls use the Internet or the third party's IP network up to the provider's termination point. The call is then transferred to a local PSTN. This implies that the international calls are also carried up to a point close to the dialed number.
The increments of the bandwidth are cost-effective. The SIP trunk connects directly to the Internet telephony service provider, eliminating the need for BRI and PRI lines.
Why choose us?
The services of SIP.US offer you an instant return on investment and savings. SIP adapts to the expansion of the organization across multiple geographical locations. SIP trunking also consolidates the voice and data into a single network, thus reducing your overall expenditure. If you have considered the installation of a SIP trunk, then SIP.US is the most reliable SIP service provider for you.

Recently Clements Hearing became a part of the Black and Lizars audiology network, not much is going to change though. I wanted to take time to explain what has happened, why it has happened and what will happen from here. Initially, I see Black and Lizars as the ideal partners for us. I believe that they have shown the same level of care and attention to their customers as we do. They are also an Independent business committed to providing the best service and care. I felt that those qualities would ensure that they were the very best partner for us.
Inevitably, when a sole Practitioner like myself comes to a certain age, we need to think about the ongoing success of our customers. That is why I believe that this new partnership with Black and Lizars will secure both the future of the business and the future success of our existing customers.
Firstly, the deal will see Black & Lizars take over the running of the business providing us with superior back office support. Black & Lizars already provides audiology services across a number of their own practices, as well as domiciliary services in people's homes. So they have a dedicated and committed back office team who are knowledgeable in our field.
Clements Hearing Services will remain the brand name for the practice and I will stay in post as senior audiologist for the foreseeable future. I think that this is an exciting time for Clements Hearing Services. Black & Lizars delivers outstanding eye care and the team's expertise and innovation in audiology will benefit our patient base (that's you). Val and I would like to thank our customers for their support over the past 20 years and we look forward to taking them on the next phase of our journey.
Black & Lizars new head of audiology, Neil McCurrach, will play a pivotal role in integrating Clements Hearing Services into the Black & Lizars portfolio. He has and will continue to be a regular part of the business here and you will all get to meet him over the next few months.
We went down this avenue because we felt that the partnership here was not just a good fit, but that it would also offer our customers better service. In fact we have already started to ensure our customers get favorable customer status with Black and Lizars, as have they for their own customers.
I would also like to take this opportunity to draw your attention to the Anniesland practice of Black and Lizars, which is only a short distance from Clements Hearing.
As part of the new partnership, Black and Lizars will offer Clement Hearing customers an introductory discount of 10% off any purchase of optical products until 31st March 2018.
I am looking forward to the future with Black and Lizars and I hope you are all happy to come along. If you would like a hearing test, need ear wax removed or would simply like to talk to us about your hearing, why don't you give us a call and book an appointment. Don't delay – call us now on 0141 -954 6030 or book online.

Iron Fairies
Iron Fairies
The iron fairies are the creation of West Australian boy Ashley Sutton. He spent his days underground in Western Australia's iron ore mines. In order to battle the boredom of his bleak working environment Ashley started to dream up and draw the story of a group of miners that forge iron fairies. The fairies come to life only when exposed to the morning sun rays, but are destined to turn to rust unless protected by the magic fairy dust. His drawings were discovered by a production manager who encouraged him to evolve his ideas. Ashley is now a world renowned designer of bars and restaurants across Asia.
These fairies are collectibles, each comes with a vial of fairy dust and their individual suede pouch.

The big news last week was that Twitter acquired Loren Brichter's Tweetie for iPhone, which has been renamed "Twitter for iPhone" and will be released soon in the App Store, for free.
As Twitter made this announcement people started wondering what happened to Tweetie for Mac. Brichter himself later announced that he was still working on it, but he wasn't too clear about it. Today, with a post on Twitter Development group, Ryan Saver confirmed that they also acquired Tweetie for Mac as part of a deal, but it won't go under any name change and will be kept free.
"One more from me. People have been asking for specific details around Tweetie for Mac and I wanted to make sure we clearly message our plans as we know it. To be clear, Tweetie for the iPhone and its developer, Loren Brichter, were the focus of our acquisition, but as part of the deal we also got Tweetie for Mac.
Loren had been hard at work on a new version of Tweetie for Mac that he was going to release soon. Our plan is to still release the new version and it will continue to be called Tweetie (not renamed to Twitter). We will also discontinue the paid version."
So, Tweetie 2 for Mac is real, is developed inside Twitter's office but will still be called Tweetie. And it will be free.
Now, this is great news for us.

There are plenty of outdoor hotspots just a hop, skip, and a jump from The Academy at Frisco. Take advantage of the mild weather in Fayetteville and set aside a weekend or three to reconnect with nature. Here are a few of our favorite destinations.
Botanical Garden of the Ozarks
Wander through the twelve themed gardens of one of the country's 117 botanical gardens. Don't forget to stop by the butterfly house--it's the only one in the region. If admiring Arkansas's natural beauty isn't enough for you, they also offer horticulture workshops for voracious minds. The garden is less than fifteen minutes from our community, and at only $7 a person, you can't go wrong.
Kessler Mountain Regional Park
This park is relatively new, with its grand opening held in August of 2016. If you're an athlete, you'll be able to enjoy the soccer and baseball fields and can look forward to the future additions that will include basketball, tennis, and more. If sports aren't your thing, you can still enjoy the acres of forest and trails. Once all of the planned additions pan out, it will be "the largest multi-purpose park in the city of Fayetteville".
Looking for something a little more laid-back? The 26-acre Bryce Davis Park may be your choice. The park offers pavilions and picnic areas to provide a scenic hangout spot where you can still take in the nature around you. Three of its acres are dedicated to its dog park, and we have a feeling that would be a fun place to be whether you have a dog or not!
If you're an animal lover, this is the destination for you. The sanctuary is full of life of all kinds! Beyond the birds, butterflies, and other critters, the area boasts abundant plant life. Located less than ten minutes away, this is the closest spot on the list.
If you're looking for a home near scenic, outdoor destinations, contact us today to learn all about life at The Academy At Frisco.
