India may not achieve the upper-end of the 6.75-7.5 per cent growth forecast for the current fiscal, noted the second volume of the Economic Survey 2016-17, saying the economy was weighed down by "deflationary impulses" arising from farm loan waivers, exchange rate appreciation and GST implementation.
"We are not changing the growth forecast range (6.75-7.5 per cent). But we are less likely to see the economy achieving the upper end of the range," said Arvind Subramanian, Chief Economic Advisor, who authors the Survey.
In the March quarter, growth slowed to 6.1 per cent, the lowest in more than two years, seen mainly as a fallout of demonetisation.
Points to deceleration
The Survey said all indicators "pointed to a deceleration in real activity since the first quarter of 2016-17, and a further deceleration since the third quarter". In this milieu, it said, farm loan waiver could come as a further shock as it is likely to reduce aggregate demand by as much as 0.7 per cent of GDP.
Earlier on Friday, Finance Minister Arun Jaitley tabled the second volume of the Survey in the Lok Sabha.
For India to sustain the current growth trajectory — in the last two years, real GDP growth has averaged 7.5 per cent — the Survey suggested action on investment and export fronts besides cleaning up the balance sheets.
"For the year ahead, the structural reform agenda will be one of implementing actual and promised actions — GST, Air India privatisation, and, critically, the Twin Balance Sheet (TBS) challenge," the Survey said.
With inflation remaining below the Reserve Bank of India's medium-term target of 4 per cent, the Survey saw "considerable" scope for further easing in monetary policy as the repo rate was 25-75 basis above the neutral rate. The RBI last week cut its main policy rate by 25 basis points to 6 per cent, the lowest since November 2010.
"Cyclical conditions suggest that the policy rate should actually be below…the neutral rate. The conclusion is inescapable that the scope for monetary easing is considerable," the Survey said.
To a better GST
The latest Survey Volume, while lauding the efforts of the GST Council, saw scope for improvement to the rate structure and exclusions to make a good GST an even better one.
It called for the inclusion of electricity in the GST framework. This would improve the competitiveness of Indian industry because taxes on power get embedded in manufacturers' costs, and can be claimed as input tax credit.
It felt the inclusion of land, real estate and alcohol in GST will improve transparency and reduce corruption.
The Survey also said that the 3 per cent tax on gold and jewellery products — items that are disproportionately consumed by the rich — is "still low". Excluding health and education is inconsistent, it felt.
Banking sector
Even as the government and the RBI act to address the twin balance sheet (TBS) challenge, there is a need to complement the efforts with reform and recapitalisation.
The Survey mooted a three-element reform package: Selective rescue of banks, expanded role for the private sector, and specific actions such as recapitalising, strengthening lending and risk management frameworks.

Catamount Community Radio - September 18, 2011
We listened this morning to a couple from Johnny Hodges ... OK, all you alto players ... thou and thou and thou ... shall not covet Mr. Hodges' tone. He played Hoagy Carmichael's "Two Sleepy People." We had to imagine the lyrics in our heads:
Here we are, out of cigarettes,
Holding hands and yawning,
Look how late it gets.
Two sleepy people by dawn's early light,
And too much in love to say goodnight.
Here we are, in a cozy chair;
Pickin' on a wishbone from the frigidaire.
Two sleepy people with nothing to say,
And too much in love to break away.
Then later we heard him duet with Earl Hines. It was sublime ... but good. (a wine geek used that line on me once ... he may have known his wine, but not his English. I think "subtle" was the word he was looking for.)
Two from Matt Wilson. On "Tenderly," the big organ sound reminds me of the sound of the organ at Tiger Stadium in the seventies, on the corner of Trumbull and Michigan Avenue. By the way, congratulations Detroit Tigers, on winning the American League Central title. Now, the playoffs (the truth is that I really don't pay much attention to baseball). Nowadays, I doubt they even have organs at the ballparks.
La Sonora Ponceña absolutely rocked Dizzy's "Night in Tunisia," Hear it for yourself:
Back-to-back Williamses: Mary Lou, with Andy Kirk and the Twelve Clouds of Joy, doing "Moten Swing" and Don, with "I Believe in Love." I heard that tune on the radio driving home from Michigan, in Ohio somewhere. Dude has a nice baritone voice.
I had to play Page, Plant, Jones, and Bonham again, since it hasn't rained since last week. Even if it doesn't rain next week, you won't hear any Led Zep, because I have a special project up my sleeve: one hour of train songs, and another hour of truck songs. I am going to tape, or can, or voice-track, or whatever you say, the show tomorrow afternoon, because next Sunday, if things go according to plan, I'll be in Pittsburgh. I'll take my laptop and listen to my show via the magic of the internet to see how I sound.
Bob Seger has finally decided to sell his music on itunes. But from what I can see, there is still lots of his music that is unavailable. You can get "Live Bullet." You can get another live album, and a few other tunes, but not, for example, any of the cuts from Night Moves. With that in mind, I played his UMC, which stands for "Upper Middle Class." I confess, I like me some Bob Seger.
Jeff Coffin played a tune .... his bass player is Jaco Pastorius's son, and he plays just like the old man ... in a weird time signature.... like a sixteenth-note short of 4/4 time or something. But still funky, as in Maceo funky.
All this and more. A radio show of plenty, to be sure. Catamount Community Radio, Sunday mornings, 10-12 (EST) on Power 90.5.

This morning, a three word sentence caught my attention as I was reading through the account of David and Goliath. The words, "David heard him." Not very profound, but I hope they will speak as "clearly" and as LOUDLY to your heart as they have mine. In considering the story of David taking on the giant of a man who had been taunting the camp of Israel's strong armies for quite some time, I was almost stunned to realize it took only one man with his "ears" tuned into the giant to realize the giant had NOTHING on God! I think David knew the voice of God - the power, purpose, and provision of God - and recognized nothing would stand up to one word from him - not even the giants we face!
Israel and the Philistines moved into position, facing each other, battle-ready. David left his bundles of food in the care of a sentry, ran to the troops who were deployed, and greeted his brothers. While they were talking together, the Philistine champion, Goliath of Gath, stepped out from the front lines of the Philistines, and gave his usual challenge. David heard him. (I Samuel 17:21-23 MSG)
We hear lots of voices around us today - the ones we choose to listen to make all the difference in determining which voices will become the strongest influence in our lives. God had many men in this army capable of wielding sword, throwing a javelin, or even doing hand-to-hand combat. They were skilled soldiers. Yet, one boy from the sticks, a shepherd at that, hears the taunting of the giant and realizes something no one else in this company can even come close to realizing - the taunts are nothing more than sarcastic insults meant to discourage these mighty men of valor. The most amazing thing to me - it worked!
Isn't it sad to think of all these men, prepared for battle, armed to their teeth, and no one could get beyond the jeering of the giant? Somehow, they were listening with their eyes! They allowed what they "saw" to influence what they believed! It is a sad day when we allow what we see to begin to craft the way we respond - for faith is not founded on what we see, but on what we "know" because of what we have really "heard" (Hebrews 11:1). Faith is truly the handle on what we cannot see - fear is the handle we hold onto when we only focus on what it is we can see.
Look again at our passage. All Goliath had was his "usual challenge". This is something we need to get into our heads and deep into our hearts. All the enemy of our souls has is his "usual challenge". He doesn't have anything else with which to taunt us - he is "known" by his deeds! His all is nothing compared to the sufficiency of Christ in us. David heard his "usual challenge", knowing full-well the challenge was nothing compared to what he had learned about God in his times as the little shepherd boy out in the fields! He had studied the stars, observed the wonder of water bubbling forth from recesses within the rocks, and thrilled to the coolness of the tall grass between his toes. In these moments, he had come to know the God of creation - the one who designed it all, holds it all together with the power of his Word, and avails himself to those who will listen to his voice ALONE.
David wouldn't back down - his familiarity with the voice of God made the sound of his enemy's jeers seem like puny insults and jibes - nothing else. David rose above the fear others experienced because he chose not to listen with his ears - but he heard with his heart - the place where he regularly and consistently communed with God. The enemy thundered his jeers and jibes - David boldly proclaimed his assurance - God would not be mocked by such a one as this giant! Isn't it about time we started talking to the giants in our lives much like David did to Goliath? His words to Goliath: "Who is this Goliath to defy the armies of the Lord?" Why could he voice his assurance in such a bold manner? I think it might be because he had learned not to listen with his ears, but to hear with his heart. That which did not match what he knew about the God he communed with in his heart would have no part in bringing discouragement, fear, or timidity in his life. I think we'd do well to adopt such a "listening heart"! Just sayin!

The Rushmore Report – Awesome Christian Quotes by U.S. Presidents
Historians disagree on how "Christian" America was and is. One thing is for sure. Throughout our history, our presidents have often stood on biblical principles. You don't have to take my word for it. Consider some of these direct quotes from some of our most popular leaders. Their words speak for themselves.
George Washington – "It is impossible to rightly govern a nation without God and the Bible."
John Adams – "We recognize no sovereign but God, and no King but Jesus!"
John Quincy Adams – "The Bible is the first and almost the only book deserving of universal attention."
James Monroe – "Before any man can be considered as a member of civil society, he must be considered as a subject of the Governor of the Universe. And to the same Divine Author of every good and perfect gift we are indebted for all those privileges and advantages, religious as well as civil, which are so richly enjoyed in this favored land."
Andrew Jackson – "My most fervent prayer is that the Almighty will overrule all my intentions and actions."
Abraham Lincoln – "I am profitably engaged in reading the Bible. Take all of this Book upon reason that you can, and the balance by faith, and you will live and die a better man."
Grover Cleveland – "All must admit that the reception of the teachings of Christ result in the purest patriotism, in the most scrupulous fidelity to public trust, and in the best type of citizenship."
Theodore Roosevelt – "A thorough knowledge of the Bible is worth more than a college education."
Calvin Coolidge – "The foundation of our country is the Word of God."
Herbert Hoover – "The study of the Bible is a post-graduate course in the richest library of human experience."
John F. Kennedy – "The rights of man come not from the generosity of the state but from the hand of God."
Ronald Reagan – "If we ever forget that we are one nation under God, then we will be a nation gone under."
George H. W. Bush – "We asked for God's help; and now, in this shining outcome, in this magnificent triumph of good over evil, we should thank God."
George W. Bush – "Each day millions of our citizens approach our Maker on bended knee, seeking his grace and giving thanks for the many blessings he bestows upon us."

It is expected that these procedures will be completed in the office in Vienna, Austria.
It is clear from these acts that IRU as a Roma organization at the world level takes a very significant part in creating policies related to Roma from all meridians

When did winter zoom past? Nobody knows. Not only is summer on us but it is exam season too. That means two things – light refreshing meals and hydration. When spending time over the stove top is a agony, we must think smart and eat sensibly. Salads are great additions to a meal and good at quenching thirst also. Salads are great even for snacking in between meals.
Salads are mostly made of raw vegetables and fruits which have a higher moisture content. Since there is no cooking involved, the vegetables retain their juices and nourishing properties to the fullest. For more on how to make or when to not have salads, read through my article here.
So, are alfalfa sprouts good for you? Here is the lowdown on alfalfa sprouts.
These are a great source of protein, B complex vitamins, Vitamin K, Calcium, Iron, Potassium, Zinc, Copper. Also high in phytoestrogens. Traditionally used to treat kidney ailments, diabetes, these wonder sprouts also mop up cholesterol from arteries. Great news for people with high cholesterol, or arterial plaques. While they are a wonder food for most people, some sets of population may have to proceed with caution.
Pregnant women or convalescent people are better off eating all foods that are cooked, avoiding any raw sprouts including alfalfa. Since the sprouts mimic estrogen, women with low progesterone may do well to avoid eating it daily. People who have auto immune disorders such as Rheumatoid Arthritis, Multiple Sclerosis, or Lupus may find an increase in their symptoms with prolonged daily consumption of these sprouts.
It is also useful too remember that this caution is only necessary if you plan to eat raw alfalfa sprouts daily for several months. In an otherwise balanced diet that includes alfalfa sprouts once a week or thereabouts, in combination with a variety of other foods, the food only delivers its abundant vitamins and minerals with no significant damage due to its phytoestrogen, canavanine, or other components.
This is a salad I rustled up for lunch today. I feel it looks colourful, happy and enticing. I've even added a surprise ingredient to encourage the younger ones to reach out for it eagerly. Want to know more? Read on for the recipe….
- Does not contain gluten, lactose, dairy, corn, soya, yeast, eggs.
- Suitable for gluten or lactose intolerant people.
- *Contains nuts. People with nut allergy can omit the nuts in this recipe.
Preparation time – 15 minutes + 30 minutes chilling time, Cooking Time – nil, Serves – 2 main servings or 4 as accompaniment to meal
You Need -
Cookware – Peeler, Grater, Knife, Mixing Bowl, Mortar and pestle
Ingredients -
- 1 cup grated red carrot (I used 1 long red carrot)
- 1/4 cup thinly sliced onion
- 1 fistful alfalfa sprouts
- 1 cup chilled drinking water
- 1 green chilli OR 1/2 tsp crushed black pepper
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 2 tbsp apple cider vinegar
- a 1" square of peanut brittle or any nut brittle* (optional)
Method -
- Rinse the alfalfa sprouts in running water and steep in the chilled drinking water until needed.
- Immerse the thinly sliced onion in the vinegar. Set aside.
- Rinse, scrub, peel and grate the carrot. Slice the green chilli into thin slanting slivers. Coarsely crush the peanut brittle in a mortar and pestle. Do not powder it. Leave behind some small bits for your kid to pick up and and bite into with glee!
- Place all the ingredients in a mixing bowl, drain water from the sprouts, add to the bowl, and give them all a good toss with salt. You may need to separate the sprouts with fingers.
- Chill before serving for flavours to marry each other well.

|The electronic organ in the Boogkerk in
Het ORGEL 97 (2001), nr. 1, 19-21 [summary]
Johannus, manufacturer of electronic imitation-organs, praises its top-brand Monarke on its website: The Monarke-organ has a sound quality that is as good as the average pipe-organ. I played the Monarke in the Boogkerk in Amersfoort.
This Monarke has 24 stops; its price was 50.000. The instrument has, unlike many other Monarkes, no pipe faþade. Thats fair, as it is indeed not a pipe organ. The choice of natural materials for the manuals is a good one: playing on plastic is horrible. The form of the stop-knobs is however somewhat kitschy.
The tones are divided between the speakers in such a way that a C- and C#-chest are suggested, so the lowest pitches come from the rather small left tower as well.
This Monarke resembles a real organ considerably more than a Heijligers did 20 years ago. The attack, however, is not supple, the frequency spectrum rigid. But the main objection is that it is clearly audible that the sound is processed by electronic devices. The flutes are relatively the best stops, the principals are with respect to attack and liveliness far from real, and the plenum lacks brilliance.
Even if electronically reproducing the complex interactions between the pipes of an organ were possible, the costs would be so high that there would be no reason to do so.

How sweet it isn't
Elected officials are learning the hard way that consumers of sugary drinks, a majority, don't like it when they're treated like cigarettes smokers, a minority.
The great soft-drink fiasco continues to shake the political foundations of Cook County politics, outraging consumers, frightening county board members who voted for the beverage tax and encouraging those who consider the issue a ticket to higher office.
For now, however, Cook County Board President Toni Preckwinkle stands proudly by this disastrous policy decision. She's withdrawn an ill-advised lawsuit that demanded $17 million in damages (lost tax revenue, by her estimate) from the Illinois Retail Merchants Association for having the gall to challenge the law in court and winning a court-ordered stay in its implementation.
But Preckwinkle continues to ignore editorial advice from the Chicago Tribune to ask the board to repeal the tax and insists the anticipated new revenue will pay for "core functions" of county government.
"Meanwhile, Big Soda has spent millions of dollars to galvanize opposition to the 1-cent-per-ounce beverage tax. We know what their millions are going toward — fighting against the recommendations of the World Health Organization, the American Heart Association and the other leading health care advocacy groups," Preckwinkle argues.
While she digs in for what appears to be a pitched battle ahead, one board rival — fellow Democrat Richard Boykin — is considering challenging her bid for re-election in the March party primary. At the same time, a group of Republican state legislators, led by Reps. Michael McAuliffe of Chicago and Christine Winger of Bloomington, have filed legislation, House Bill 4082, that would prevent any home-rule county from imposing a tax on sweetened beverages based on volume sold. The legislation would apply to any county ordinance adopted on or before the effective date of the bill, repealing the existing Cook County ordinance.
In a stunningly tone-deaf move, Cook County Board members, touting their money grab — they envisioned $200 million a year in additional revenue — as one motivated by public-health concerns, imposed a penny-per-ounce tax on sweetened beverages. It was a replay of the high taxes levied on cigarettes, also ostensibly for health reasons.
The tax, which became effective Aug. 2, has led to staggering price increases. Consumers, many of whom vote, are paying an average 67 percent more for a 2-liter of soda, 43 percent more for a gallon of juice drink or sweetened iced tea and 29 percent more for a 12-pack. The special levy on a case of 24 12-ounce cans of Coke has increased the price by nearly $3.
As if that wasn't enough, Crain's Chicago Business reports that the Illinois Liquor Control Commission has expressed concerns about the legality of the new tax. A letter from the commission to Preckwinkle indicates that while the tax on sweetened beverages excludes alcohol, many wholesalers distribute both alcoholic and sweetened beverages and will have to deal with the complications. The commission stated that dual burden "may lead to practices that violate the Illinois Liquor Control Act."
One other downside to the tax is that not only do consumers not like it, many will also not pay it. They'll arrange their purchases of sweetened beverages at businesses outside of Cook County, costing merchants sales across the board. That's what has happened in Philadelphia.
It remains to be seen how this issue will play out in Cook County, although the tax looks to be in deep trouble. But one thing is for sure: It will be awhile before politicians in the rest of the state, even though always ravenous for new sources of revenue, will look to high taxes on sugary drinks as a solution to money woes.
The reaction from angry Cook County residents is sending a message that even they cannot ignore.

How are you good people, am hoping you had an awesome weekend. Mine was quite a mixture of sorts but yesterday crowned my weekend up. I met my gals and its never anything short of amaze balls when we get to catch up and all esp since one of us just jetted back into the country from abroad.
I decided to do a lil bit of everything, color,demin, the sweater, nautical stripes.....
I love this tangerine capris.....and I paired em with this turqoise knit sweater that is quite my fave knit oflate
I had a nautical hi-low stripped shirt inside and it was quite chillly in the evening so the sweater came in handy and I totally forgot to take it off as i was taking the pics. I then added a neon pink scarf to add some color and ummmph to it.
And finally my geeks and a janelle monae inspired hairstyle, then my nude and white sling backs. And oh....not forgetting the teal purse.
My sweater is baggy and it looked funny when i tucked it in, but i did not want to belt it up so i added a brooch at the back.

Let's talk food. Did you know we throw out about 25% of the fruits and veggies we buy? So says a study conducted by the University of Arizona, (reported by the Arizona Republic 7.24.08 from an AP reprint) Jeez! That's about $500 a year for a family of four. We may be trying to get our 8 servings a day, but looks like we're failing miserably. The other bad news? Expect food prices to go up 5.5% this year.
I started that blog several weeks ago, intent on coming up with some great savings ideas like sucking it up and settling for canned veggies at 3/$1 or freezing grapes for little pop-in-your-mouth treats, but guess what? Life happened. Worries about saving money hid the sidelines when my 95 year old grandpa fell and broke his hip. ON MY WATCH! Now, it was an accident. He had his cane. He went to feed the birds as he does daily. It wasn't my fault. But, as any of you who've ever experienced a crisis with a loved one knows, rational can't go ten seconds in a round with guilt.
At this point it looks very good that grandpa will fully recover to live out how every many hours, days, months, years his life clock is set for. (Any prayers, good thougths, mantras – whatever your belief system – are appreciated.) But this experience left me with a whole new perception about the truly critical area of life that requires frugality.
Waste some money? You can earn more, or squeeze extra hard and pinch it out of somewhere else. Waste food? It's not bright, but it's not critical. Truthfully, a few leftovers that grew mold instead of growing my waistline so I didn't "waste" would benefit me. What we can't waste is time. It isn't renewable. You can't recover it. It's gone.
You probably budget your money, some of you right down to the cents column. But what about the hours in your day, month, year? Do you know where they go? Are you maximizing their value? Are you finding ways to make them more productive?
I could give you ten quick tips I use, but I'm no expert. There are tons of sites out there with time-saving tips that I should learn. That's not the point. The point is about mindset, about coming to realize that our greatest asset is often slipping away silently, or being openly squandered by many of us without any concern or remorse. We splurge on a double-mocha-latte- whatever (sorry, I don't do coffee) and feel guilty because that's $4 or $5 out of the grocery budget, but think nothing about spending hours fighting with a spouse or child about chores (during which, of course, the chore could have been completed in half the time without incurring the additional lost hour, afternoon, days… (hey, some people hold onto stuff) of lethargy and inaction that bad feelings and stress cause.
So, this weekend, sit down and do a Time budget – what's available, how do you want to use it, where can you save some it by being more productive? Frugality doesn't judge how you use it, only that you don't waste it.
Me? I'm going to go read for an hour. It soothes me, engages my brain, offers "me" time – in short, a $3.99 ebook at Frugal Fiction gives me a little mental health therapy that's far cheaper than 45 minutes on the shrink's couch.
Remember: A Frugal Fiction Book? $3.99. Reading to your child 15 minutes a day? Priceless!!

There are books you read once and may or may not recommend to a friend. There are books that you get half-way through and decide to cut your losses. Then every once in a while there's a knock-your-socks-off, tell-everyone-you-know, amazing book that you have to read twice and three times because the first time you devoured it like a one year old takes on their first birthday cake. "Cecelia Jackson's Last Chance" by Robbie Iobst is one of those devourable books.
Belinda Kite is caught up in a bad situation. A single mom in an abusive and inappropriate relationship, Belinda struggles to survive her daily life. Her daughter gets the worst of her, and though it's heart wrenching to read, it's honest. When Belinda receives a phone call notifying her that her estranged mentor/mother-figure has passed away, Belinda has to make a decision: return to her old stomping grounds to fulfill Cecelia's dying wish or continue along her current path.
Donna Dougans and Maggie Shanks have the same decision before them. Long lost friends of Belinda, they have been asked to reunite after twenty-five years to recreate Cecelia's famous tuna fish sandwiches. Though they all have their demons, grudges, and fears, they reluctantly come together in honor of Cecelia and the results are incredible.
The women in this book are relatable, friendly, funny, and genuine. Robbie has a way of drawing you into another world and holding your heart and mind hostage. Every time I read this book, I don't want it to end. I have given it to so many of my friends as gifts and if I may go out on a limb here, I can honestly say this is one of my all-time favorite books.
An honest story of redemption, decisions, and God, this is real deal. Laugh, cry, dream, and hope with the women of Boots, Texas and when you reach the end, turn the book over and start again.
~ Thankfully Exhausted

Employers are accountable to ensure LPNs have the necessary access to support, information, resources and opportunities to provide safe, competent, ethical and compassionate nursing services. Occasionally, in meeting this obligation, employers must implement a practice plan to help an LPN to overcome professional practice issues (PPIs). The College Professional Conduct Process is in place to address concerns about LPNs professional practice which cannot be successfully managed by the employer.
The decision tree can guide decisions around managing PPIs. All PPIs require employer some intervention prior to initiating the professional conduct process. The depth and breadth of the employer intervention will be in context to the nature of the PPI. Initiating the professional conduct process without an employer intervention may slow the process or impact the outcome.

WorkshopCreating Tomorrow's Places: Shaping the future of local public services using technology
Kindly supported by:
We are delighted to host an interactive workshop looking at how local government can harness technology-driven infrastructure. Alongside data analytics and networks, these innovations can enable councils to shape the future of public services and better leverage the resources of people and places. This will contribute to a report due to be published next year in association with Engie, setting out a vision for smarter, integrated, and networked places. More information about this research can be found here.
Local authorities experience tremendous financial strain amidst rising demand pressures and expectations of service delivery. The increasing use of 'smart' capabilities provides an opportunity to confront this. Integrated service responses have the potential to achieve multiple outcomes and optimise the relationship between individuals and services. For example, ICT infrastructure tackling crime and traffic while creating a more attractive town centre, or energy-efficient-sensory technology in care homes which supports elderly people to live independently.
In this workshop, you will create a vision of the future with experts working in the field. Together you will explore the possibilities of smart solutions to solve the challenges facing your council. Questions we will consider include:
- What technologies and infrastructure can help councils adapt to new pressures and realise better outcomes?
- What is preventing councils from accessing and exploiting smart infrastructure?
- How can councils procure a smart place?
Refreshments and a light lunch will be served, providing a great opportunity for networking with peers.

Wrought Iron chairs - Great strength and Style for the Home
Wrought iron chairs - You can furnish the patio, verandah and poolside area with wrought iron patio chairs as well as furnish rooms inside your home with wrought iron kitchen or dining room chairs. Whichever you choose, you will be amazed by the quiet strength and durability inherent in quality constructed chairs made from iron.
General characteristics of wrought iron chairs for home living include a choice in finishes. You can choose from patina, antique and natural iron finishes to several other finishes. If you are looking for patio chairs, wrought iron is a very nice choice as well as material. Be advised that iron will rust, however, the finish will protect rusting from happening. You may need to repaint wrought iron furniture and patio chairs every so often. This is not a big job, but, nonetheless it is necessary and will keep your iron chairs looking great. One solution is to buy patio furniture covers for wrought iron outdoor chairs or store the chairs indoors to protect during winter.
For indoors, iron chairs are also great. With sleek linear designs to more ornate wrought iron detailing, kitchens and dining areas come alive with wrought iron dining chairs. You will want to choose your desired cushion fabric to match the room's décor. Cushions add a great amount of comfort to the iron chairs, so much so, that you may find it difficult to get up.
With outdoor iron chairs, especially dining chairs, outdoor cushions are a good idea. For bistro chairs, this may not be the case, but for the dining chairs and deep seated wrought iron chairs, relaxation and comfort are essential.

Understanding market research samples and sampling methods
Samples and sampling is the bedrock of market research, but there is not just one way to sample or one type of sample. Researchers will choose how they sample based on a number of factors including how easy it is to find the target population and how important it is to have a genuine random sample as opposed to a so-called convenience sample.
Sampling basics
Sampling, at it's simplest, is a very straightforward process. You start with a list of people in the population you want to sample, you select a sampling fraction N according to the sample size you want to achieve. You randomise the order of the list and then you pick every Nth record in the dataset and conduct a survey or questionnaire with that person. So, for instance you have a list of 20,000 people. You want a sample of 100, so the sample fraction is 20,000/100=200. You pick every 200th person and there is your sample. Crucially, each person on the list would have had an equal chance to have been invited to take part (EPSEM) and so the sample is fully random.
For some projects it can be as simple as this process. A company with a list of willing customers eager to take part in a survey would be a good approximation to this process. The only slight catch is to check the list is randomised fairly and you use the proper 1 in N method (usually with a seed number to pick the first record). It has been known for customers to be contacted sequentially from the first record on, until the sample size is met. Unfortunately as database IDs run from oldest to newest, you can end up with a sample entirely of old customers this way.
However, even this database method of picking a sample is not without it's problems. If you are selling B2B, the likelihood is that the biggest customers will also be larger businesses themselves too. But the list of all customers you have will be dominated by smaller customers because the typical profile of a B2B customer database is that 20% of the customers make up 80% of the sales. If you pull a sample of 200 on the 1 in N basis we would anticipate 40 large customers and 160 small customers. But that doesn't really reflect the sales profile so the views of the larger customers might be drowned out by the larger number of smaller customers in the analysis.
For this reason, the sample needs to be stratified - that is different groups need to be sampled separately - so a sample of large customers separate from a sample of small customers. This type of stratification can also be used to control the profile of the sample. In a fully random sample, the randomness means that at times the sample might lead to a disproportionate number of questionnaires for one group or another. Stratification and sampling by the strata allows known profiles to be controlled for. To take the database example one stage further, it might mean dividing the database into geographic regions and then sampling within each region in order to ensure the sample matches the known profile of the database.
In the database cases, the sample is drawn from a known list. But in most research cases there is no list to draw from - there is no known list of internet users, or mobile phone owners, or owners of a particular car, or drinkers of a particular beer. In these cases sampling moves from the theoretical purity of a 1 in N sample to something which balances purity of design with practicality of locating the people you wish to interview.
Random or pseudo-random samples
With no list to work with, if you really require a random sample (eg for Government statistics or measuring media use where people pay for a particular level of advertising exposure) telephone used to be one of the best methods. For random telephone samples the broad principle is that you set a computer to call numbers at random in order to make contact with individuals. In practice pure random numbers isn't so efficient, but phone companies often allocate numbers in blocks and in places like the US, databases of these blocks existed. It was then a process of randomly selecting a block and then selecting a number within the block at random. And then, if it's a household number, selecting an individual in the household at random. This was at least the principle before mobile phones and before homes with multiple phone lines. It is still used as a method, but once you have more than one line, or a line that might be turned on or off according to the weight of use, the quality of the randomness starts to diminish - albeit slightly compared to other sampling methods. Essentially people with more than one line, are more likely to be called. If you have a mobile phone on more of the time, you are more likely to be called. Mobiles also cause problems because mobile numbers are used differently than fixed lines - you have no idea where the person receiving the call might be. They could be overseas, in which case they might get charged to receive your call. They could be driving in which case you shouldn't be interviewing them.
If you're still looking for a random sample and telephone is not applicable, face-to-face might be an option. It's not common in the United States because of the geography and distances involved, but it was common in the UK for major surveys like follow ups to the government census or major health studies. In a face-to-face random survey you again need a list. In the UK this was the electoral roll. You would pick individuals at random from the electoral role, then go and interview them, returning several times if they were out. Though very pure statistically, these type of survey are extremely labour intensive and so extremely expensive. For this reason alternatives were developed. The main ones split the country into geographic regions, sometimes down to blocks of 10-20 houses (enumeration districts that are used to ensure full coverage for the census). Then starting with a list of houses or small geographic areas, you would pick areas at random, then allocate interviewer to visit the households in those areas. You would control for who was at home (eg employees were likely to be out during the day) by controlling the time of the interviews and who could be interviewed. This is still expensive, but at least manageable in terms of allocating an interviewing team and is still the dominant method for conducting face-to-face omnibus studies and media studies where randomness is important in order to properly measure survey-to-survey variations.
What about online research? In practice, unless you have your own database list it's very difficult to pull a true random sample. And any sample drawn from a database is really only representative of the database. However, practice (eg yougov opinion polls) and the current size of the panels seems to suggest that if you have a large proportion of the population on your lists you can draw a sample and get results like a random sample.
Convenience sampling and quota-based sampling
In the main, unless you have detailed list to start with or can use random-digit dialling, fully randomised samples as expensive and difficult to obtain. For most categories - eg recent car buyers, users of fly spray, visitors to Bristol - a list simply isn't available. For some of these types of categories you can do a 'screen'. In a screen you take a random or pseudo-random sample and then use a screener questionnaire (also known as a recruitment questionnaire) to identify the core group you wish to interview. For groups that are a small part of a larger population this can mean asking thousands of people to help to get just a few hundred responses.
So instead, researchers will use what are known as 'convenience' samples. A convenience sample means finding people who fit the criteria, but not worrying about whether the sample is genuinely random. An example is stopping people in the street to ask them to take part in a survey (street interviewing). Here you can only interview people who are passing so you do not have a genuine random sample - for instance it's likely to be biased towards people not working, able-bodied people and often younger females during the day. Similarly, an online panel is, in reality, another form of convenience sample. The people who sign up for an online panel are not necessarily representative of the full range of views in the market because you don't know if there is a bias introduced by getting people to sign up (eg if you ran a survey on privacy, you might find panel respondents less concerned about privacy than those who have not signed up to a panel).
A classic convenience sample is a company's own customer lists. This introduces a natural bias towards the company and the company's products - it will not include many non-customers or people who reject the company's products. This can be acceptable within known limits, but it is something to be very careful of. This hidden type of bias comes into a lot of database and web-analytics as these internal sources of information can only provide information about the people who bought, or who visited and not those who didn't. With the consequence that it can be very difficult to say anything about why people don't become customers or don't spend a long time on the website.
Because of the hidden potentials for bias in convenience sampling, one method for control is to set quotas to ensure that a certain number of interviews are achieved in certain categories. This might include setting quotas by age, or working status, or socio-economic grade, but in business-to-business surveys might include the sector (the companies that do the most marketing are typically the least likely to do market research surveys - local government the most likely to take part), or size of the business.
A quota is then used to set a target and a limit on the number of interviews to be achieved. For instance a minimum of 5 men under 25 and a maximum of 10 men aged 65+. If the quotas are set very tightly it can make it very difficult to find the last few interviews, but too loose and the sample will tend towards the easy to find categories of respondents.
Non-response bias
Adding quotas and setting interview targets, doesn't make the sample random but for reasons such as cost or speed it may be considered the best available sample for the job. Obviously the researcher needs to keep an eye on potential biases, but there is one more hidden potential bias, even with random samples. Imagine an individual has been chosen at random to take part, if that individual then declines to complete the survey there is the potential that this introduces a non-response bias. In other words, how can you know that the people who don't take part are like or match with people who do take part in the survey? In some cases simply saying a survey is being carried out on behalf of say Epson will mean that customers who prefer HP may be less likely to take part. For this reason deciding to reveal or not reveal the sponsor of the survey could skew the results.
In some cases for governmental surveys, the question of non-response bias has been important enough for follow-up checks on those who did not respond. Instead of completing a full questionnaire the non-responders were asked a handful of the key questions. In general these suggested that the original non-responders were similar to those who took part in the survey at the start.
Other forms of sampling
In some cases obtaining a full sample can be extremely difficult and creative ways are needed to provide an answer to the research problem. A very famous case of this was at BMRB in the 1990s looking into the effectiveness of advertising to counter the threat of AIDS/HIV. In this case a sample of gay men was vital, but extremely difficult to get any form of sample from conventional means. So instead a 'proxy sample' was used. Interviews were carried out in gay clubs and changes in opinions and behaviour monitored over time. This use of a proxy for monitoring purposes is common. Even if the sample is biased, so long as the samples are consistent it may be possible to measure changes, even if these are not directly projectable to the population in question, and therefore judge the success or otherwise of the advertising.
A second common problem is that the population to be researched may exist, but may not be easy to reach through an interviewer or formal request to take part. An example is a survey among volleyball players we carried out for the English Volleyball Association. The group of volleyball players clearly exists, but rather than use an interviewer led approach, a 'snowball' method was used. In other words, friends ask friends to complete the survey. Again there are obvious potential biases - the keener and more interested players are more likely to take part, as are the better connected individuals. Snowball techniques have also been used to recruit difficult to reach groups like ex-teachers to help monitor campaigns to recruit people back into teaching.

Jackson County
Update: Cat believed scalded found dead in fetal position under house
On Wednesday morning, an injured cat police believe was doused with hot liquid was found dead under a house.
The video of the incident went viral on Facebook Tuesday. It's been viewed more than 22,000 times and shared almost 530 times.
Moss Point police announced Wednesday they had determined where the incident took place and had collected evidence. The people shown in the video will be charged with aggravated animal cruelty, Moss Point Interim Police Chief Brandon Ashley said.
An necropsy showed the cat, which police believe was someone's pet, suffered thermal burns over the majority of its body.
It was found under a house not far from where it had been burned.
City Animal Control wasn't able to catch it Tuesday night.
Animal rescue volunteers gathered at the house about 9 a.m. Wednesday, and a volunteer from a Pascagoula group retrieved the cat.
Helene Hicks, with Ocean Springs' Pink Pawz Spay and Neuter, said "a woman went under, wrapped the cat in a cloth and Animal Control confirmed it was dead and took pictures.
"It was curled in a fetal position," Hicks said. "Very sad. It looked like a nice cat, in good shape. I'm going to say it was owned by someone because of the general condition of it."
Moss Point police have identified persons of interest and are working to locate them, officials said.
The video caused shock and anger across social media — a black-and-white cat in a cat trap writhing and trying to run because someone is pouring something from a pot onto it.
A cat trap is a fairly small cage. In the video it is on cement at the edge of a carport in Moss Point. A man and woman are involved. She pours a pot of what looks like scalding water on the animal in the trap several times. You see the pot being emptied onto the cage at the end of the video.
The frantic cat is clearly reacting. There's no faking that something has happened as it scrambles and writhes. The images are disturbing and readers should consider that before clicking on the video.
The comments are over the top.
The man in the video sounds like he's taunting the cat, saying, "Oooooo" over and over. It appears the cat might have been a nuisance, or done something the people didn't like.
The video making the rounds on Facebook is a video of a video being played on a cellphone. The original video may have been posted on Snapchat.
Both the Moss Point and Pascagoula police departments received calls from concerned residents.
One Facebook comment warned viewers: "Watch with caution, but how horrible and upsetting that people can be this way! Who in their right mind would ever think that it's okay to treat an animal like this! If the tables were turned and it was you being treated like this you would want justice! ..."
In a Facebook conversation with the woman who had the video on her page and is believed to have made the video, a Gulfport woman tries to find out what happened to the cat.
The woman, who is believed to have been part of the scalding, said: "The cat is alive n ok. I let the damn cat go ..."
Hicks told the Sun Herald, "It makes me sick. Because in Mississippi, first-offense animal abuse is a misdemeanor, these people will probably get off with a slap on the wrist."
This is the second instance on the Coast this week of a video appearing to show animal abuse going viral.
In Biloxi, police arrested a man who appeared in a video, seeming to beat a dog with his hands and a flashlight.

Side borders, binding, quilting……
Getting closer……..
I sewed the border blocks into strips to see how much I need to add to them to make them fit. I haven't pressed them yet but it looks like 1/3 of a block will finish the 2 side borders and 2/3 block on the top and bottom. I moved it over to a double design wall and it looks like I put it upside down to the way it was on the single wall. I guess a throw size doesn't really have a top or bottom so it doesn't make any difference.
I cut more pillowcases for the church project (every 2 weeks I need a batch) and quilted 2/3 of one of the crosses quilts. Today is going to be a busy day so I don't know how much I'll get sewn. Hopefully I'll finish the quilting while I watch 3 hours of TV tonight.
One block…….
>Trying to finish another
>Last night I decided I would check out the temperature outside by driving down to the grocery store and if it wasn't too bad, I would go to see a movie at our local theater. I didn't think it felt too bad, even for 17 degrees so I went home and put away my groceries and went back out to my van to leave. The battery was dead! I guess it's a good thing I didn't get there and find it dead when I came out of the theater. My brother is an auto repair guy so he will bring me a new battery later today. My van will be 6 years old in April so I guess I did pretty well on the first battery.
As long as I was home for the evening I decided to finish this quilt top. All it needed was the 4 corner triangles. Rather than spend the time looking for the rest of the pansy fabric, I used 4 leftover setting triangles on the corners. The outside edges are bias on them so I am going to leave them oversized until the quilting is done and trim them when I trim the edges.
I had purchased 8.5 yards of this yellow fabric when a quilt shop was going out of business and having their sale. I had the fabric wrapped on a bolt board so there was minimal pressing needed on it. I got the 3 pieces sewn together and pressed.
>Sewing for charity and nature's beauty
>I started making some pillowcases for a couple different charities. I have a lot of pieces cut but don't have the right combinations figured out for most of them. I got 3 sewn together yesterday. This is the view from my kitchen window. The redbud leaves have all fallen and now I can see my maple tree. I love the red tree in the distance too.

I was looking for a juicer that could allow me to quickly concoct fresh fruit juice with a quiet motor, I found the model Duo Plus XL brand Magimix . Juicer often acclaimed for its rather exceptional juice extraction qualities I wanted to test myself this model Duo Plus XL and of course I gave you a complete test.
The Duo Plus XL: a successful design
The Magimix Duo Plus XL juicer is made for amateurs and lovers of fresh juice, homemade, in any case that is what I could roughly read on the few reviews that I saw on the internet . Allowing the preparation of any juice in record time thanks to its asynchronous motor, this Du Plus XL was delivered to me in 3 days in a packaging it must be said quite pleasant.
When you receive the Duo Plus XL , you have to wait to mount its various accessories in order to really appreciate the object. As with all juicers, the main base consists of the motor, to which will be added the spout, the basket of recovery of the pulp, and according to the models of other added components.
As for the Duo Plus XL Magimix , the number of components is quite small, assembly is facilitated. In less than 5 minutes you have your juicer ready to use and you can then contemplate beautiful object that fits in all the kitchen: both because the juicer is compact and does not take much space, but also everything simply because it's really beautiful and the design does not change much of the Duo XL , formerly in our top 3 comparative best juicer , replaced by the Duo Plus XL.
Magimix Duo Plus XL: double function juicer
Equipped with a juicer function and a special function dedicated to smoothies in addition to the juicer, Magimix offers us with the Magimix Duo Plus XL a quality kitchen appliance that allows us to prepare a wide range of recipes. juice.
During the preparation of my juices, I could perceive the few qualities that place this Duo Plus XL high enough in my ranking of the best juicers , although I still enjoy the Infiny Press Revolution Moulinex .
Firstly the chute to insert your fruits and vegetables is really extra wide (90mm), which allows you to insert without any worries your most bulky fruits, without even having to peel them (except all that is kiwi or pineapple , the skin is not edible). This is a real plus since I save all the preliminary cutting work that is sometimes required on smaller juicers .
Finally, the other advantage is the asynchronous motor. This type of engine is very practical since it saves electrical resources. Indeed asynchronous motor will adapt its power of work according to the resistance that it will have according to the food that it will work. If the food is very hard, it will deploy all its power, but otherwise it will use a minimum of energy.
Note that in addition to saving energy this type of engine also allows to prepare so-called soft fruit recipes. Indeed most powerful juicers are not recommended for this type of fruit or vegetable because they will make the real pulpit.
For those using an asynchronous motor the result will be much more suitable and the nutritional values of the food will be more preserved.
Detailed description of the Magimix Duo Plus XL
The Magimix 18057F Duo Plus XL is a juicer that ensures you an efficient extraction of delicious quality fruit juices, natural vegetables without adding sugar and exquisite smoothies and coulis with the presence of 2 very practical options as I could you say it above.
The Magimix Duo Plus XL allows full use of micronutrients and vitamins being found in the skin of your fruits and vegetables with this respectful extraction of food.
Delivered in its packaging with all its accessories, the pack with the Magimix Duo Plus XL is composed in addition to a brush made specifically to clean faster inside the juicer after use. Available in different colors the Duo Plus XL matte black chrome 400W is the most commonly used, it is also the one I ordered on Amazon.
It offers three main modes of operation:
1. Centrifugal mode
2. Mix smoothie mode
3. Juicer mode
Its main features are
An extra wide chute of 90 mm x 75 mm;
An anti-gout system;
An asynchronous motor that allows a silent and direct service to the glass;
A collapsible basket collar for ease of cleaning;
A safety button on-off, locking lid and tub for the pulp.
I definitely admire the many features of the Duo Plus XL Magimix , because for such performance, the power required for operation is low.
If you want a device to make only smoothies, look for smoothie machines .
My opinion of the Magimix Duo Plus XL
The Magimix Duo Plus XL provides exceptional juice quality without any noise pollution; the friction being extremely limited. Compared to ordinary juicers, the Duo Plus XL offers cocktails with very limited foam formation, mainly due to the precision of the motor.
More time to lose by peeling some vegetables; it allows you to extract the maximum amount of juice in record time, while retaining all their flavor and nutritional properties.
It is very easy to use and clean. In addition to its performances that are already unanimous, its sleek design forces lust. I personally find that the Magimix Duo Plus XL is less bulky than a device with pulp tank.
Apart from all this, the after-sales service offered is of high quality. The warranty offered for the purchase of parts is three years and twenty years for the engine. For me who am a little slow in the relaxation, I find that the manual proposed with the juicer is clear enough and the advice and recipes that accompany it.
The only drawbacks compared to other larger models is the impossibility of using high glasses for juice recovery because of the slightly lower location of the spout.
Small precision if you buy this Magimix Duo Plus XL , to save you time trying to understand, it is mentioned that it is necessary to operate an ejector disc at the time of assembly of the juicer . I contacted Magimix because I did not find it, the customer service made me understand that in reality it was no longer necessary to use this type of disc, they simply did not update their explanatory note.

Sky's limit for Brundle's ultimate F1 circuit.
Motor racing memories, good and bad, were revived ahead of the Australian Grand Prix
The 2015 Formula One season roars into life with the first race on Sunday at Melbourne's Albert Park.
It reminded me how, when our two young sons were young, they used to set an alarm so they could watch the race live. Only problem is, being Down Under on the other side of the world, the race is in the middle of the night!
So about 3am two excited boys would switch on our TV in the bedroom, climb into our bed and elbow my wife and I every time we showed signs of nodding off.
Motoring racing led to a love to building Scalextric circuits around the living room, as we became more adventurous and acquired more track, but it was nothing compared to Sky Sports F1 expert and Norfolk racing driver Martin Brundle's design for the Ultimate 2015 circuit brought to life by Scalextric – the biggest layout the slot car track experts have ever created.
Commissioned by Sky Sports, the only place fans can watch all 20 Formula One weekends live, the 9m by 9m track features parts from all 20 circuits on this season's FIA Formula One World Championship calendar.
The track is made up of 177 pieces and is 45 metres long. It features the best corners, chicanes and sections from the 2015 F1 calendar that fans can watch live on Sky Sports F1 throughout the season, including:
Italy and the Ascari Chicane.
Monaco and the Casino Square.
Canada and the Wall of Champions.
Silverstone and the Copse.
Abu Dhabi and the Marina Complex.
Mr Brundle said: "The team challenged me to design my dream circuit using sections from the 20 F1 races in 2015, all of which will be live on Sky Sports F1. I immediately wanted a figure of '8' like our beloved Suzuka, and could only dream of driving a series of corners such as scaling the mountain up to turn one in Austin before falling through the 'Senna S' of Brazil and towards Silverstone's fearsome Copse corner. And that's just a small section. Now amazingly, we've built a model and so I will revert to my childhood for many laps. It's going to get competitive."
Scalextric's latest creation is a bespoke commission for Sky Sports. The track pieces making up the Ultimate 2015 Circuit will be available to buy from www.scalextric.com priced around £1,000. The slot car experts looked to their revolutionary Arc One (app race control) design as the inspiration for the Ultimate 2015 circuit. A wireless slot car system it connects to a handheld smart device, such as a smartphone or tablet. Users download the free Arc app, then connect via Bluetooth to the new Arc powerbase, bringing the real and virtual worlds together for the ultimate in racing fun.
