About 100 men and women alleged to be gay were reportedly arrested in Asaba, Delta State, Nigeria, according to a witness who reported the incident to NoStringsNG . Narrating the incident, the witness who happened to have escaped told the advocacy blog that the police showed up at the hotel's club at about 2:00 am, where about 100 men and women were having a party, and started beating and harassing everyone in attendance, hitting the party-goers with their guns and hands before arresting them.
The incident reportedly happened at Delta Park Hotel in Asaba and according to the witness, after the police had finished beating them, they arrested everyone, including the staff and management of the hotel, and took them to police station in Asaba, the witness told NoStringsNG. The advocacy blog also quoted the human rights activists who are working on the case to say; some of the arrested persons have given statements, and the police have granted them bail. Meanwhile, dozens are still being detained at the police station and the police have threatened to charge the matter to court.
According to 76crimes.com, another witness claimed that the police shot a man at the party, and then carried him away in their vehicle to an unknown destination. That statement is however yet to be verified. Why there's yet to be an official statement on the arrests, we will be monitoring the story for updates.

A judge at the Courts of Justice has ruled that all six legal challenges brought against Parliament's decision in June to back a third runway at Heathrow can be challenged at a full hearing.
The news come as a massive boost for the Royal Borough and the four neighbouring authorities who have launched two of the challenges, backed by Greenpeace and the Mayor of London.
Mr Justice Holgate had to decide whether the applicants had shown that the process leading up to Parliament's decision in June to support the runway was flawed.
Following his decision a full hearing will now be held in March in front of two judges.
The other challenges - presented at the same time as the councils' - are from Heathrow Hub which argues that the Government discriminated against its own rival plan for doubling the length of the existing northern runway, as well as from Friends of the Earth and others who challenge any extension on climate change grounds.
Judge Holgate is expected to look for ways of combining these separate objections where possible to avoid duplication.
John Stewart, who is chairman of HACAN - the organisation that opposes major expansion at the airport, said: "This is a blow to the government. At best it probably thought it would just need to defend two or three of the challenges. Now it faces all six."
Campaigners gathered outside the Courts of Justice in the Strand from early this morning hoping to hear that the result that was eventually reached.
The Government and Heathrow face challenge from two very sides of the argument - from those who oppose further expansion on the grounds that the infrastructure of the area could not stand it and from the men behind the independant plan for expansion put forward by a team that included a former Concorde pilot.
HACAN's chairman John Stewart summed it all up when he said: "Legal challenges are a major headache for any Government because it can't control the outcome. This one is no exception. The best laid plans of politicians can come unstuck in the courts."

Not only are these bacon pretzel chocolate chip cookies the BEST chocolate chip cookies, but they have bacon and pretzel pieces too! I rest my case. 😉
I wanted to call these chocolate chip cookies, PMS cookies but I didn't want to offend anyone. Let me first say that my sister-in-law Gayle makes the best chocolate chip cookies ever and she gave me her recipe which I based these on. I'm not kidding they are wonderful. I don't often make chocolate chip cookies or any cookies for that matter because I will eat all of them. I have no restraint and I love, love, love cookies. On this particular day I knew I had to bring something to my book club and I was jonesin' for salty and sweet and thought "hey, I'll put all my favorites in a cookie….Gayle's cookies", and a star was born – bacon pretzel chocolate chip cookies!
Well I made these little lovely cookies and my son LOVED them. He will eat practically anything with bacon in it, but add it to a cookie and now you've really got his attention. I dutifully put a bunch in the freezer for my book club. I didn't want the temptation. But when book club was canceled, well I could have left them in the freezer for next month. But I didn't. I ended up eating most of them until I had to give some away so I wouldn't eat them for breakfast lunch and dinner. <sigh> That is why I don't bake. I have no control.
Onto our cookie recipe. It's basically the recipe on the back of Nestle's Toll House Chocolate Chips bag. The only difference is replacing half of the butter with butter flavored Crisco.
Instead of the one cup of nuts, I added a half cup of broken pretzel pieces and a half cup of crumbled cooked bacon.
As you can see they are lovely and delicious looking and I may never make them again because they are so good. Some notes: if you want more pretzels/crunch in your cookie add a bit more pretzels. I think the 1/2 cup of bacon is plenty but if you want more bacon go for it. I would just make sure to add a few bits to the top of each cookie to make sure each cookie has some bacon in it.
Bacon Pretzel Chocolate Chip Cookies
And that my friends is my PMS cookie. As I said I probably won't make them again. Except I do have a cookie exchange coming up in a week or so. So maybe just one more time. That's it. I promise. 😉 Enjoy! (And thank you Gayle for sharing your recipe! I still can't make them as pretty as you do.)
Bacon Pretzel Chocolate Chip Cookies
- 2 1/4 cup flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup butter
- 1/2 cup butter flavored Crisco
- 3/4 granulated sugar
- 3/4 cup brown sugar packed
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 2 large eggs room temperature
- 2 cups chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup pretzels pieces add more if you want them crunchier
- 1/2 cup cooked bacon broken into pieces
Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
In a large bowl mix the flour, salt and baking soda.
With your mixer cream your butter, Crisco, sugar, brown sugar, eggs and vanilla until creamy.
Slowly add your flour mixture until everything is well combined. May have to scrap down the sides to get everything mixed.
Take your bowl out of the mixer and add your chips and pretzels and stir by hand to incorporate.
Add 1/2 of the bacon bits and fold into mixture.
Place your cookies on a cookie sheet (not greased) and add few bacon bits on top of each cookie.
Bake for 10-12 minutes depending on the size of your cookies.
Check for doneness and desired color.
Let cool and server or store in an airtight container.
Can also freeze for a later date.

Be Thankful for…
November 20, 2017
Though you may not drive a great big Cadillac
Gangster whitewalls, TV antennas in the back
You may not have a car at all
But remember brothers and sisters
You can still stand tall
Just be thankful for what you've got
~ From "Be Thankful for What You Got" (1974)
Songwriter: William DeVaughn
Thanksgiving day is approaching, a day initially dedicated to breaking bread with loved ones to enjoy and be grateful for the bounty of the season and to share that bounty with others less fortunate.
In reality, the actual day is usually busy with cooking, socializing and navigating through personal and family relationships, along with the joys and challenges that come with them. These days, some folks even spend the day or night lined up at stores, anxious to grab the biggest discounts on toys and appliances. The simple idea of being thankful and having more than a moment before eating to meditate on it can be hard to come by amidst the holiday chaos.
If you miss the opportunity to focus on what you are truly grateful for, no need to wait another year. Begin, the day after Thanksgiving, making a list of three things you are thankful for every day until the New Year. You can write them down or simply see them in your mind's eye. Think of three things each day, perhaps before you sit down to eat, or maybe at the day's end. These could be big things, such as health or love or family. They could be small things, like a delicious dessert you ate or an entertaining movie you saw. Maybe you are thankful just to get through a particularly challenging day. Whatever you put on your list, do it faithfully every day until January 1st. My guess is that you will feel calmer, less stressed and enjoy the Holiday season more by taking this simple, daily action. If so, you may decide to continue the practice into 2018.
To help get you started, here is your musical mantra, from 1974:
Be thankful for Polpette di zucca (Pumpkin Balls), little cheese-filled, breaded and fried nibbles of creamy, savory pumpkin.
Polpette di zucca (Pumpkin Balls)
These delicious and nutritious little balls of creamy, savory goodness make a fun appetizer for your Thanksgiving, Christmas or other Fall/Winter holiday table. Using canned organic pumpkin saves time and trouble, but you could roast and mash pumpkin from scratch, if you choose. I have included a short. step by step video below.
1 (15 oz) can organic pumpkin*
1 cup unseasoned bread crumbs, divided
1 egg
1/2 cup grated Parmesan or Pecorino Romano cheese
(I used a combination of both)
2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh, flat-leaf parsley
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
Generous pinch of crumbled, dried rosemary
2 ounces of smoked cheddar or sharp cheddar cheese, cut into small cubes
(you will need about 14 cubes)
Oil for frying (to reach 1 inch from bottom of pan)
*Variation: use canned butternut squash for Squash Balls (Polpette di zucca lunga)
In a shallow, wide bowl, combine 1/2 cup of the bread crumbs, rosemary, salt and freshly-ground black pepper to taste. Set aside.
In a medium bowl, thoroughly combine the pumpkin, egg, remaining 1/2 cup of bread crumbs, parsley, Parmesan/Pecorino cheese, a pinch of salt and a few turns of freshly ground pepper. Put 2 tablespoons of the mixture into the palm of your hand and place a cube of the cheddar/smoked cheddar in the center. Fold the edges of the pumpkin mixture around the cheese to form a ball. Roll this ball gently into the bread crumbs and pat to fully cover. Continue making the rest of the balls. Chill in fridge for 30 minutes.
To fry:
Fill pan so that there is one inch of oil from bottom. Heat to 350°F/170°C, or until the handle of a wooden spoon dipped into the oil forms bubbles around it. Alternatively, you can toss in a tiny pinch of bread and it should sizzle. Also, a kernel of unpopped corn will pop when the oil is ready.
Fry pumpkin balls, a few at a time (so as not to crowd pan or lower temperature of the oil), until golden brown (about 3 to 4 minutes). Drain on paper towels and serve immediately.
Makes about 14 balls.
Here is a short, step-by-step video to guide you how to assemble the balls. It is in Italian, but you don't need to read it, as I am merely providing it as a visual guide. Their version roasts the pumpkin from scratch, so don't worry about that part if you are using canned:


text: Fission processes take nuclei (for example, Uranium) and split them. In the process of splitting the atom, a huge amount of energy is released. However, the downside is that the smaller atoms that are formed by the process are typically radioactive. Nuclear reactors can utilize the fission process to generate electricity, and nuclear bombs are simply an uncontrolled fission process driven by a chain reaction.Fusion processes, on the other hand, take smaller nuclei and combine them together to make a larger nucleus. The fusion process also releases a lot of energy. However, the difficulty with this process is getting two nuclei (both positively charged) to collide and combine. Controlling the fusion process to generate electricity has not yet been demonstrated, although an uncontrolled process can be used in weapons. Also, the appropriate conditions for fusion also exist in extreme conditions such as in stars. For example, the sun's nuclear process is a fusion process.

Jason Bourne is coming home. That means: He is on his way there. In London, he meets with reporter Simon Ross, who writes stories about him in the Guardian. Bourne hopes to hear from Ross about himself, about Treadstone, about the program. They meet at Waterloo Station in London. A very busy place. The ex-agent and the reporter can exchange some information, but then Ross is shot. The CIA had shadowed Ross. And get rid of it.
Bourne now knows that Treadstone did not finish, but was merely replaced by Operation Blackbriar, who acts more or less as a Treadstone update.

We're less than a week away from celebrating our freedom, barbecue and fireworks. Your coworkers are probably on vacation or day-dreaming about their weekend plans. Too bad social media never sleeps, right?
But that doesn't mean you can't partake in the festivities, too. Because of the pervasive nature of social media, it's exceptionally important for social media managers to balance their professional and personal lives.
Basically, you need to unplug. Here's how:
1. Schedule your posts:
Duh. You're probably already doing this anyway, but it bears repeating. Using a tool like Oracle Social Cloud's SRM will allow you to schedule custom posts for LinkedIn, Facebook, Twitter, and Google+. Time your posts to peak visibility hours, and keep in mind major events. For example, it'd be a bad idea to schedule a post on LinkedIn on the 4th of July at 9.30pm - most people will probably be watching fireworks. However, it would be a good idea to schedule a post on the 4th at 9.30pm on Facebook or Twitter that echoes the fireworks theme. Each platform is different - meet your audience on their terms.
2. Designate someone as a "Comment Responder" for the weekend:
If you've got a team of social media managers, this is pretty easy - just have one person monitor the handles for any fires that may erupt. If you're flying solo, pick a few times per day to check for comments. Depending on the volume of comments your handles receive, this could be once a day or five times per day. Either way - be sure to keep it short.
3. Put your phone away
When you're not "on," be off. Put the phone away. Close your laptop. It's easy to get sucked into social media, so physically remove yourself from the temptation. Turn on the "Out of Office" notification on your email.
4. Relax
Enjoy. You've earned it.

Jack and Mabel live in the wilderness of Alaska in the 1920s. They moved there after the death of their baby. It is a lonely and hard existence. So much so the two of them have stopped talking to each other and to themselves. During a gentle snowstorm one night, the two of them build a snowman and dress it as a child. The next morning the snowman has been destroyed but there are footprints leading off into the deep woods. What follows isn't a straight forward fairy tale but there are enough elements to make the reader think there may be some magic left in the world after all.
Based on a Russian fairy tale, this debut novel is a stunner. The descriptions of Alaska and how cold is it (Hello, Polar Vortex!) help the reader understand the isolation of the place. What the snow person is and what she becomes is left up to the reader. Jack and Mabel have some neighbors that are part comic relief and part teacher. When these families begin to break down the barriers both mental and physical they begin a trek down a trail full of love and heartache. Excellent to read with a roaring fire going in the fireplace.

Obstructive is a sleep disorder that can be cured despite what many believe. There are sleep apnea dentists, who can help you to manage this sleeping disorder. You can find such professionals in many of the well-known South Bend, Indiana family dental offices.
The condition
Sleep apnea is a sleeping disorder that does not allow air to flow freely to the lungs while you are asleep. A tissue in your throat will collapse and obstruct the airflow. This reduces the amount of air or oxygen that flows in. When the oxygen levels become very low, you can wake up suddenly. Thus, your sleep is interrupted many times during the night. This will result in daytime sleepiness and fatigue. Some patients might snore and be prone to depression, memory loss, irritability, headaches, and lack of concentration. Thus, these patients are more susceptible to accidents due to sluggishness.
The sleep apnea dentist will want you to maintain a diary so you can record your sleep patterns for at least two weeks. They will try to understand your sleeping and breathing patterns. They will also conduct a polysomnogram test, to examine the breathing, brain waves, heartbeat, and limb movements while you are asleep. They will then investigate if there are other conditions that interfere with your sleep. This will include your medical condition and any medication that you might be taking.
Treatment options
The two main types of therapies for this condition are upper airway surgery or oral appliance therapy. Changing the posture while sleeping and losing some extra weight might help in simple cases. Generally, the dentist's first line of therapy will be to prescribe an oral appliance. This device is designed to apply constant pressure and thus prevent collapsing of the tissue. Customized appliances to suit your needs will be more effective than standard ones. The last option is to perform a surgery to remove the obstruction. The dentist, along with an ENT surgeon, will perform this surgery to open the airway.
If faced with this condition, make sure to consult a certified sleep apnea dentist to get the desired results.

Head Injury-Inpatient
Your child has been in the hospital for a head injury and is now ready to go home. For his or her safety, there are many things you will need to do at home.
Signs to Watch For
You need to return to the Emergency Department or call your medical provider if your child has any of these symptoms:
- Repeated or projectile vomiting
- A major change in behavior or personality (confused, impulsive, reckless, aggressive or other abnormal behavior)
- Hard to wake up during the day or quickly falls back to sleep after waking
- Unable to wake up at night
- Headache that does not get better after taking Tylenol®
- Bleeding or clear fluid coming from the nose or ears
- Hearing problems
- Convulsions (seizures or fits)
- Staggering or swaying while walking
- Weakness or dizziness
- Eye changes (cross-eyed, droopy eyelids, trouble using eyes)
- Vision changes (blurred or double vision)
- Numbness or tingling in face, arms or legs
- Loss of consciousness (child does not wake up when you touch and talk to him)
- Your child does not "look right" to you or seems to be getting worse instead of better
Return to Sports and Activities
When your child may start playing sports again depends on how serious his head injury is. He may not do contact sports, rough play or activities that need balance (bike riding, swimming, tree climbing) until his doctor says it is okay. He also should not drive any motor vehicles, until the doctor says it is okay.
Make an appointment for your child to see a doctor experienced in treating head injuries before he returns to sports. Your child should be symptom-free first. Then he can slowly go back to exercise. He will gradually be able to play contact sports.
To help symptoms improve and prevent them from getting worse, do not let your child watch TV, play video games, or spend time on the computer. Also, he needs to avoid text messaging and listening to loud music or music through headphones.
Encourage your child to rest often and eat a light diet. Try to eat soft foods and foods that are easy to digest. Avoid food and drinks with caffeine, spicy and fried foods, heavy meats and rich desserts for the first 2 to 3 days. It is important to drink enough fluids (8 to 10 glasses or 64 ounces per day).
Even with a mild head injury, it is common to have problems concentrating, sleeping, being irritable and tired. These will go away as the headaches improve.
How to Avoid Future Injuries
- Passenger safety: Use the right child passenger restraints (car seat or booster seat) for age and size of child.
- Sports safety: Your child should be fitted with the right size helmet and pads when doing sports. The right protective equipment should be worn when biking or using a skateboard, scooter, or roller-skates. Protective equipment must always be worn when playing contact sports.
- Street safety: Teach your child to play where it is safe and supervised. Most children can be taught to safely cross the street alone at about 10 years of age.
- Home safety: To prevent falls, choking, poisoning, and burns check your home for possible dangers. Use safety products (safety gates, cabinet locks, windows guards, smoke detectors, railings, and walkers without wheels).
No matter how mild or serious his head injury, it is important for your child to have medical follow-up.
- Tell the doctor if your child is having trouble doing things he was able to do before the head injury (including schoolwork).
- Tell the teacher that your child has had a head injury. Your child's school may be able to make accommodations for homework assignments or exams. This can minimize stressors with return to school.
- If you need a doctor for your child, call the Nationwide Children's Hospital Referral and Information Line at (614) 722-KIDS.

Congressional Committee To Discuss Domain Fees
Page 1 of 1
A House committee Wednesday will debate a bill that would return money to domain registrants that was originally collected by Network Solutions and deposited in the Internet Intellectual Infrastructure Fund to be managed by the government.
In April 1998, a federal judge ruled NSI lacked the authority to impose the $15 a year fee and Network Solutions stopped collecting it. Since the decision, NSI has not been allowed to spend any of the estimated $50 million that has been collected. Of that total, $23 million was to go to the Internet II project currently underway.
On Feb. 11, U.S. Rep. Lee Terry, a Nebraska Republican, introduced the "Home Page Tax Repeal Act" that would reinstate the court's original decision, allowing the money collected for the fund to be redistributed to domain registrants. The bill would allow the NSF to use money from its 1999 budget to meet its 1998 Next Generation Internet obligations.
The House Subcommittee on Basic Research will hear from a number of witnesses, including Larry Rudolph, general counsel for the National Science Foundation and David McClure, executive director of the Association of Online Professionals.

Tensions high as FA Cup games revive racism rows
LONDON - The spectre of two recent racist incidents will hang over the FA Cup this weekend, with tensions high as the clubs involved prepare to play each other again.
LONDON - The spectre of two recent racist incidents will hang over the FA Cup this weekend, with tensions high as the clubs involved prepare to play each other again.
Manchester United will travel to Anfield on Saturday for the first time since defender Patrice Evra was repeatedly racially abused by Liverpool striker Luis Suarez in a league match in October.
Chelsea captain John Terry is set to play at Queens Park Rangers days for the first time since prosecutors decided to charge him with racially abusing Anton Ferdinand in the last meeting of the west London clubs in October.
Terry's legal team will enter a not guilty plea on his behalf in a London court next week, with the defender not planning to attend the initial hearing.
Fears that any lingering animosity between the players or rival fans could boil over in the weekend matches have prompted statements appealing for calm from the four clubs and a strong police warning about abusive behaviour.
Chelsea and QPR tried to quell any tensions by issuing a statement describing Saturday's fourth-round match as "a unique opportunity to show the world that hatred has no place in our game."
The comments from Chelsea chairman Bruce Buck and QPR counterpart Tony Fernandes came after talks between the clubs.
"Abuse and discrimination has no place in football or society," Buck and Fernandes said in the statement. "Both clubs enjoy fantastic support. However, we would remind fans that while we want to hear their passion, it's a fact that hatred and abuse is not what being a fan of Chelsea or QPR is about.
"The clubs will work together with the police to ensure that anyone using discriminatory or inflammatory language is identified and that the strongest possible action is taken against them."
The spotlight will be on Ferdinand and Terry before the match to see if they shake hands, as is customary.
While racial abuse between players was the problem in the October matches, alleged taunts at Anfield was the issue in the third round of the FA Cup earlier this month.
With Liverpool still reeling from Suarez's eight-match ban for the verbal confrontation with Evra, its fans were accused of racially abusing an Oldham player at Anfield.
And police in Liverpool said Wednesday that a "firm, fair and friendly" approach will be adopted for Saturday's visit of United.
Many meetings between the northwest rivals have been fraught with drama, but United manager Alex Ferguson has written to his club's fans to ensure they do not step over the mark with their behaviour at Anfield.
"Your support is vital to the team and down the years that has been especially true at Anfield," Ferguson wrote. "But please put the emphasis on getting us into the next round and giving the sort of support you are famous for — positive, witty and loud."
Police warned that all allegations of offensive conduct will be thoroughly investigated.
"We cannot allow this type of behaviour to affect the enjoyment of genuine fans, especially families with young children who attend the game," match commander chief superintendent Jon Ward said in a statement. "We will continue with our efforts to deal with the small number of individuals who commit offences at football matches, in particular with the continued use of football-banning orders."
The racism cases prompted a British parliamentary committee to launch an investigation into whether enough is being done to combat the problem in football, with a hearing due to take place in March that could hear evidence from the accused and victims.
On Wednesday morning, nine men were arrested by police investigating suspected racist chanting by supporters of Charlton Athletic on a train back from their FA Cup match at London rival Fulham on Jan. 7.
"These recent arrests are saddening to all those who have worked so hard over many decades," Charlton chief executive Stephen Kavanagh said.

DESTINATIONS TO CONSIDER – Portland, OregonDec 22, 2017
What makes Portland so very special? Some may tell you it's all about the trees, fresh air and the proximity to the mountains, rivers and ocean. Others may tell you it's all about the indie music and arts scenes. I would say what truly defines Portland it's eco-friendliness! The City of Roses' (named after the annual festival of roses) approach to urban planning and outdoor spaces has often earned it a spot on numerous lists of the greenest places to live.
This eco-friendly city and sustainable infrastructure makes it easy (incredibly easy) to plan your meeting in Portland. Statistically Portland ranks among the top 10 U.S. cities for most LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) certified buildings per capita. Portland hotels meet the industry's strictest criteria for environmentally friendly guidelines.
Portland's reputation is known for launching original concepts, from its innovative food and beverage culture to its out-of-the-box transportation solutions and sustainability initiatives. Of course, who can forget about Portland's national reputation as the top foodie destination? All this is offered up with the friendly hospitality and big-city amenities only available in a place like Portland.
Who doesn't want a unique meeting location and affordable accommodations with no side order of sales tax? With no sales tax or food and beverage tax, Portland lets you stretch your meeting dollars. Your budget will thank you, as will your delegates, who'll use the money they save to take full advantage of Portland's acclaimed dining, shopping and cultural offerings.
Portland is also known for its incomparable transit system.

Once you get into the city, do not worry about how you will get around. At the heart of Portland's world-class public transportation system is MAX light rail, with 97 stations and 60 miles of track connecting the city, airport and region.

Goodell, Young named to Farm Bureau's Circle of Friends
The nonpartisan New York Farm Bureau recently named Assemblyman Andy Goodell and Senator Cathy Young to its prestigious "Circle of Friends" list. This recognition is based on their voting record on issues of agricultural importance, sponsorship of important agricultural bills that help local farmers, and their vocal opposition to policies that are harmful to farming.
"The selected lawmakers were chosen for their commitment to the hard-working farm families in New York. Each friend has demonstrated that they understand the importance of agriculture to the people of their legislative district and how farming significantly impacts the economy of this great state," said Dean Norton, President of the New York Farm Bureau.
Assemblyman Goodell noted, "Agriculture is ex-tremely important to Chau-tauqua County and accounts for over $250 million in local economic activity. Chautau-qua County ranks first in New York state for the number of active farms and fifth in the state for the number of acres in production. It is critical that we support our local agricultural industry."
Senator Young stated, "Family farms are struggling to stay competitive in New York tate, and the Farm Bureau does a terrific job of advocating for the positive polices that support agricultural community needs. I'm proud to work alongside the Farm Bureau and will continue to partner with them and Assemblyman Goodell so that our local farmers are in position to succeed now and in the future."
Important legislative issues addressed by Senator Young and Assemblyman Goodell included the passage of Senator Young's bill that caps any increase in agricultural assessments to no more than 2 percent, efforts to reduce the regulatory burden on family farms, initiatives to promote locally grown New York farm products and adoption of the Lake Erie Wine Country Trail designation to market locally crafted wines and to expand tourism.
The New York Farm Bureau, the state's largest general farm advocacy organization, works closely with the state legislature to strengthen and enhance the agricultural industry in New York state.
This year's legislative session proved to be a challenging one for farmers, but with significant support from key legislators such as Senator Young and Assemblymen Goodell, agriculture will continue to be one of New York's most important industries.

Nehemiah 12: The Levite Dedication
by Wayne Blank
See also 1 Year Holy Bible Reading Plan
"At the dedication of the wall of Jerusalem they sought the Levites out of all their places, to bring them to Jerusalem, to keep the dedication with gladness, both with thanksgivings, and with singing, with cymbals, psalteries, and with harps"
The Levites (see When Were The Levites Set Apart?, The Levite Clans, The Origin Of The Levite Priesthood) played a major part in the return of the Jews (see Jews - Three Tribes and Three Meanings) to Jerusalem in the time of Nehemiah and Ezra (see A History Of Jerusalem: Ezra And Nehemiah).
"12:1 Now these are the priests and the Levites that went up with Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, and Jeshua: Seraiah, Jeremiah, Ezra, 12:2 Amariah, Malluch, Hattush, 12:3 Shechaniah, Rehum, Meremoth, 12:4 Iddo, Ginnetho, Abijah, 12:5 Miamin, Maadiah, Bilgah, 12:6 Shemaiah, and Joiarib, Jedaiah, 12:7 Sallu, Amok, Hilkiah, Jedaiah. These were the chief of the priests and of their brethren in the days of Jeshua.
The Kingdom of Judah had fallen (see Why Did Judah Fall To Babylon? and Why Was It Desolate For Seventy Years?) because it became a liberal fantasy land of lust and curruption. Everyone claimed to be "free" to do whatever that they declared was their "right." It was a Satanic state of mind that has destroyed many nations over the span of history. The Levites, as the direct servants of the LORD, restored the true freedom of the LORD's law and order where people could live in peace and prosperity without fear of anyone (see The Kingdom Of Freedom).
"12:27 And at the dedication of the wall of Jerusalem they sought the Levites out of all their places, to bring them to Jerusalem, to keep the dedication with gladness, both with thanksgivings, and with singing, with cymbals, psalteries, and with harps. 12:28 And the sons of the singers gathered themselves together, both out of the plain country round about Jerusalem, and from the villages of Netophathi; 12:29 Also from the house of Gilgal, and out of the fields of Geba and Azmaveth: for the singers had builded them villages round about Jerusalem. 12:30 And the priests and the Levites purified themselves, and purified the people, and the gates, and the wall.
Fact Finder: Why did the LORD God (Who was and is Jesus Christ - see Genesis 1: In The Beginning Was The Word and The Kingdom Of The LORD God) establish His Levite priesthood?
This Day In History, September 26
46 BC: Julius Caesar dedicated a temple to his mythical ancestor Venus Genetrix, in keeping with a vow he made at the Battle of Pharsalus (see The Politics Of Rome and A History Of Jerusalem: Pompey And The Caesars; also Whatever Happened To Those Romans?).
1345: During the Friso-Hollandic Wars, the Frisians defeated Holland at the Battle of Warns.
1396: German and French "Crusaders" (see Constantine's Crusades In History And Prophecy) were defeated by Ottoman forces at Nicopolis. The Ottoman Empire, centered in Turkey, was the dominant imperial force in the Middle East for centuries, including over the land of Israel, until the end of the First World War (see A History Of Jerusalem: The British Mandate).
1580: Francis Drake returned to England after completing the first English voyage around the world.
1626: Lancelot Andrewes died at age 71. The English theologian and court preacher during the reigns of James I and Charles I oversaw the translation of the King James Version of the Holy Scriptures.
1687: The city council of Amsterdam voted to support the invasion of England by William of Orange.
1687: The Parthenon (the great pagan temple that was built in 447 BC; see Paul In Athens) in Athens was severely damaged in a battle between the Ottomans and the Venetians.
1777: During the rebellion of the New England colonies that were established by the British in the wilderness over a century earlier, the British army temporarily took back control of the British-built city known as Philadelphia. The city was planned, built and named by William Penn, an English land developer sent by King James. Ironically, Pennsylvania was named after William Penn - a life-long patriot of the king (Penn was born, died and is buried in England) who was not involved in the rebellion.
1829: The British "Scotland Yard" police organization was founded.
1854: The "Charge of The Light Brigade" during the Crimean War (1853-1856). The suicidal charge of an English light-cavalry brigade during the Battle of Balaklava in the Ukraine was made famous in a poem by Alfred Tennyson.
1872: The first Shriners Temple (called "Mecca") was established in New York City.
1907: New Zealand and Newfoundland became dominions of the British Empire.
1934: The British liner Queen Mary was launched.
1937: During the British Mandate that established the present-day state of "Israel" (see Israel In History and Prophecy: Balfour Declaration and Israel In History and Prophecy: Israel Of Judah) Lewis Andrews, British district commissioner of Galilee and Acre and known friend of the Jews, shot by a group of Arabs while he was walking to church in Nazareth. Also killed was a police constable who was walking with him.
1945: Lt. Col. Peter Dewey, a U.S. OSS officer (the "Office of Strategic Services," that later became the Central Intelligence Agency), was killed by Vietnamese forces after he was mistaken as a French military man and ambushed. Dewey is regarded as both the first U.S. soldier and the first CIA agent to die in the Vietnam civil war i.e. it was imperial France that divided Vietnam into North and South. France was driven out in the 1950s; the U.S. replaced the French, while taking the side of the South. When the U.S. left in the early 1970s, the North overran the South and Vietnam was restored to what it was before France and the U.S. involved themselves in the southeast Asia nation.
1950: United Nations troops recaptured the South Korean capital of Seoul from the North Koreans.
1959: Typhoon Vera, the most powerful typhoon to hit Japan in recorded history, made landfall. It killed over 4,500 people.
1967: During the Vietnam civil war, the government of North Vietnam rejected a U.S. peace proposal that would have made the French-imposed division of Vietnam permanent.
1984: Britain and China agreed that Hong Kong would revert to Chinese control in 1997 (which it did).
1990: In Russia, the Supreme Soviet ended decades of religious repression with a new law that prohibited government interference in religious activities.

"Man I'm losing my mind, you all assume that I'm cool when I rhyme/
see I'm trying to be Marcus and Hopsin but I get depressed when the two intertwine/
Truthfully, I'm not the man that I used to be, nobody cares who I used to be.../
To talk to so I lose the heat, I'm cut bad and the bruise is deep/
Is there anything you can do for me?"
This video was really well done, I was impressed. I loved every minute of Hopsin's Knock Madness and its great to have some new visuals when they actually deliver a crazy experience. That effect where he's going back and forth between being Hopsin and Marcus was crazy and the whole atmosphere of the video was intense. I realize from the content of Knock Madness that Hopsin may be a little confused by where his career has taken him but I been watchin this guy's videos since Sag My Pants and he has really come into his own and this video shows it off. Check it out.

Typical Mistakes That Law Firms Should Avoid
The company of law has a set of regulations and rules. Nevertheless, as with any various other businesses, it is able to experience because of to specific errors, business inaccuracies, as well as mistakes made by a law firm or maybe its staff members. Whether the law firm of yours is small or large or perhaps whether you've a solo train, these industry mistakes are able to lose you dearly.
Not focusing on a specific niche is true to smaller law firms as well as solo methods. In an effort to acquire company and customers a lot more, there's a temptation to distribute yourself way too thin and get on cases outside the area of yours of expertise. Do not give in to this particular temptation. Focus on the niche of yours, as it enables you to provide higher client satisfaction which will instantly improve profitability and business. When you're well developed, you might grow the services your firm offers by hiring specialists in some other places. Larger law firms that will handle many cases should assign certain aspects of work like business law, environmental problems, and real estate to certain individuals. Having anyone look at everything is a certain healthy recipe for disaster.
Some law firms don't have confidence in advertising at all and wish to depend completely on word of referrals and mouth. This's a huge mistake. At the various other end of the spectrum are actually law firms that invest heavily on advertising and are actually puzzled by way of the shortage of results. Advertising is a crucial tool to market your law small business, though it has to be used intelligently to provide optimum value. It's not needed to have a full page advertisement in a national newsprint. You might get much better results with a tiny ad in a nearby magazine which has a greater possibility of being read by your target clientele. The site of yours also can serve as a cost effective lawyer website marketing tool.
Providing the very best services to clients is expensive, however when consumers do not honor the bills of theirs on time, many lawyers are actually reluctant to follow up. Some customers might take advantage of you and hold off payment even more. If this particular scenario continues, you'll be left low on money, that will inevitably impact the quality of program. Keep in mind that customers won't leave the firm of yours since you ask them to spend what they owe, though they'll certainly leave whether the degree of yours of system goes down.
Not communicating is actually a common error probably that most lawyers commit without actually being conscious of it. The volume of labor in a law firm is very huge you have a tendency to be stressed and might have no time to speak with the customer of yours. Interaction with your consumers is important for business. You will probably be working extremely difficult for the interests of theirs, though they have to understand it. Providing frequent updates to the clientele of yours by telephone or maybe email is important. These're several of the most typical business errors that law firms frequently make. Staying away from these mistakes can help keep the clients of yours happy, and you are going to be in a position to retain them more time than you'd normally.

North Port, Florida, October 15, 2015 – King Plastic Corporation, a leading manufacturer of polymer sheets, slabs and massive shapes introduces King Hy-Pact®, the super tough industrial polymer sheet that is environmentally stabilized with excellent physical properties and is a cost effective material.

"We are very excited to offer a new and improved product called King Hy-Pact®, said Michael Fabbri, National Sales Manager. King Hy-Pact® will allow us to compete against UHMW for outdoor applications because of its superior UV characteristics over UHMW and superior wear resistance over HDPE. This is another example of King Plastic's innovation."

(Yicai Global) Feb. 12 -- Beijing and Guangdong law enforcers recently warned and fined two major Chinese video companies Youku Inc. (Youku) and iQiyi Technology Co. (iQiyi) and the two internet conglomerates Tencent Holdings Ltd. and Baidu Inc. for allowing their platforms to spread cult cartoons.
The earliest domestic cult cartoons came online in 2016, the authorities' investigations found. Guangzhou Yinjun Trading Co. disseminated cult cartoons and selfies introduced from abroad and signed contracts with platforms such as Youku and iQiyi to upload its videos under the Happy Disney account. The company obtained profits of CNY2.2 million (USD350,000), the regulator announced today on its official website.
Guangzhou Public Security Bureau filed a case, investigated the company Feb. 5 and revoked its business license the next day. The department also imposed administrative penalties on several internet companies with which the company had cooperated, directing them to rectify their violations.
Cult cartoons are videos depicting pornography, violence or gore embedded in cartoon images disseminated under the guise of education. These animations may inflict serious physical and emotional harm on children who watch them. YouTube unearthed many cult cartoons in November, shut down 50 channels and deleted 150,000 videos. Since then, Chinese web users have also come across similar videos on several domestic websites, which have now blocked over 1,000 accounts and deleted 280,000 videos.

YOR Health is nutrition for the future, says founder Dennis Wong. The company offers health and nutrition products ranging from vitamins and supplements to potent meal replacement powders. YOR Health has been helping people reclaim their lives since its inception in 2008.
A clear vision
According to Dennis Wong, YOR Health was founded out of necessity. After experiencing some disconcerting health complications himself, Wong knew he needed a way to get himself back on track. This deeply personal connection to the products has given Wong and the entire leadership team real-world experience using the products and thus a clear vision on how to best communicate the company's message.
Smart marketing
YOR Health doesn't employ gimmicky marketing tactics to attract its thousands of consumers. Instead, Dennis Wong explains the company relies on scientific data and word-of-mouth to share the company's mission of health. Each and every representative is a walking example of how the products work and the good they can bring into others' lives.
Friendly competition
Dennis Wong notes that the company's global force of representatives are all images in a bigger picture. Through teamwork and an extensive network of supportive leadership—plus the occasional body challenge—YOR Health promotes a family-like atmosphere where representatives are free to share their successes with one another. Unlike many companies who almost encourage cutthroat competition, Dennis Wong says YOR Health reps work together on the greater mission of helping others get well.
Steady growth
By interacting with consumers face to face, the company has grown steadily and avoided many stress points that other, more aggressive nutrition companies have experienced. This has allowed YOR Health to consistently monitor trends among customers and intuitively respond to their needs. Through this patient method of operation, YOR has exceeded growth in excess of 250 percent for the last three years.
YOR Health has been featured three times in Inc. Magazine's fastest growing companies list. The company strives for sustainable growth by keeping in constant contact with representatives and consumers alike. Dennis Wong says the company has literally changed his life and he looks forward to a long, healthy and happy future of sharing YOR Health with other like-minded individuals.

A Spotlite on Rapper KINETIC 9
By Paul Bruinooge
Summer 2014
Kinetic 9 (aka Beretta 9) exploded onto the music scene as a member of Wu-Tang Clan's Killarmy as a kid with a vision. Under the close tutelage of Wu-Tang's founding father and mastermind, the RZA, Kinetic took advantage of the opportunity to learn discipline and hard work from the abbot himself. Like a disciple of kung fu, Kinetic studied and developed as a lyricist and producer, all the while gaining experience in the music business.
Since Killarmy's debut in 1997, Kinetic has been busy in and outside of Wu-Tang, from working with RZA on the original music score for Quentin Tarantino"s Kill Bill to landing a role in the director's Django Unchained. Now, after years of training and with as much experience as one can have, Kinetic is ready to take the world on himself. To quote the RZA: "Kinetic is back for the revenge. He has lived a lot through me and now he is about to live for himself!"
Paul Bruinooge: Tonight the moon is closer to the earth than it ever gets and it"s Friday the 13th. Did anything crazy happen to you today?
Kinetic 9: Like when Jennifer Aniston"s titties get big in Bruce Almighty when Jim Carrey's character brings the moon closer and causes a Tsunami? No, nothing too out of the ordinary. I did however buy some lotto tickets today, and I wasn't aware that it was actually Friday the 13th until about 10 minutes ago when I was talking to the neighborhood kids and I asked what the day was and one of the girls said Friday the 13th. Ironically, I had bought 13 lotto tickets earlier in the day.
PB: You"re a hot commodity these days. You"ve got an album coming out with Achozen (your band with RZA and Shavo from System of a Down), you"re on two of John Frusciante"s latest solo albums, and you have a role in Quentin Tarantino"s Django Unchained. What makes the biggest names in the industry want to work with you?
K9: You know, it"s funny, cause John and Shavo never knew I was a rapper in Killarmy. I was hanging with John probably a couple months before he knew I was a rapper and that I was part of Killarmy. He just thought I was RZA"s boy or bro. It wasn"t until Killah Priest came to his house and Killah Priest called me Beretta 9 and John was like, "Wait…wait…hold up…Beretta 9…who"s that?" Killah Priest was like, "Oh…Kinetic," and John was like, "Wait…what do you mean you"re Beretta 9?" I said, "Yeah, that"s my other name from Killarmy." John just went to his record collection and he dug out all of our albums. The same thing with Shavo too. He just thought I was cool and shit. He was showing me how to rap, and was like, "Nah…you gotta say it like this, you gotta do it like this." I just went along with it. I was having fun but he didn"t know I was part of Killarmy. We were hanging with his friends and stuff and one of them asked who I was. I said Beretta 9, and he was like "Beretta 9 of Killarmy?"
PB: And what about Quentin Tarantino?
K9: I met Quentin in 2004 when we worked on Kill Bill which I got credited for as an assistant to RZA. When RZA did American Gangster, he approached me and he was like, "Yo we gotta get you in a movie, RZA just did American Gangster." It was cool too because I remember RZA saying, "I want to be in a Quentin movie" and not a lot of people know that my first flair is film. Before I ever got into music or anything, before I got into Killarmy, as a kid that"s what I wanted to be, was in the movies. And then that perspective changed as I got older getting into music, but then it eventually got me into film.
PB: And you came into the music business when you were 16?
K9: Yeah, I mean it was kinda before that. 9th Prince, Islord, Shogun, and I were running the streets of Steubenville, back then. The funny thing is that, like I say, my mind wasn"t even set on being an MC at that time. Though I was very into the craft having the influence of Yo! MTV Raps and Rap City. Then, of course, 9th Prince, along with Shogun and others peers. You could catch me beating one the table while others would flow with me, not at all comfortable with myself to even jump in. That changed with time. Nowadays you can catch four and five years olds flowing. Man, woman, and child. No matter the race, color or creed. And killing it too! But back then I hated my voice. You know that voice before you reach puberty voice. Well, we later went on to form Killarmy, and headed to New York to record our debut album and the rest is history.
PB: In 1997 Killarmy"s debut album Silent Weapons for Quiet Wars went to number 34 on the Billboard Top 200. What made the record sell so well?
K9: I would say having that Wu-Tang stamp. And, of course, our sound. But that W played as important a role as did we. RZA dropping the name on the intro of the Wu-Tang Forever LP–that was big.
PB: What was it like being exposed to success at such a young age?
K9: Beautiful. It was just around the time I dropped out of high school. I was feeling as though I wasn"t learning anything. I was definitely headed down the wrong path, running the streets, so I would say I was very fortunate. I was thrown into a high-paced lifestyle, eventually going to New York linking up with other Killarmy members to record our debut album Silent Weapons For Quiet Wars. That lead to three more albums. But, yeah, just to be there around the time Cuban Linx dropped, when GZA"s Liquid Swords was being recorded and Ghost's Ironman. I remember I would roll with RZA to the city, and he would spend the majority of his time then in the studio. My cousin and I would turn off the radio to spark some conversation, hoping RZA would leave behind the unreleased music. Man, we would be in Manhattan chilling in front of the studio in a dope ass ride, bumping unreleased Wu-Tang shit.
PB: What"s your favorite Wu-Tang Record?
K9: Wu-Tang Forever.
PB: Do you remember the first time you heard Wu-Tang?
K9: Yeah, it was early "90s–somewhere around "92–when there were some demos floating around. If I'm not mistaken I think 9th Prince had some tracks. But to answer your question, early "90s I recall hearing tracks RZA, ODB, and GhostFace had done. I recall hearing "Bring Da Ruckus," the original version, and "C.R.E.A.M (Cash Rules Everything Around Me)" with Deck's original verse.
PB: With all the buzz around the 20th anniversary Wu-Tang album are you ready for the renewed interest in Killarmy?
K9: I"m hoping that will come. I think we"ve been out of the picture for a minute and we need to take a slower approach to it. Every time we get together it"s like. "Let"s do an album." I"d rather we just do songs and then say, "Hey, we got an album, let"s put it out." It's tricky because all six members have their own agenda, I would say. Everybody needs to look at the fine print and take a step back. We"re Killarmy; we need to be strategic. It"s all about strategy. I think it should be broken up more between us. It should be culinary when it comes to doing music. I think we should take a more strategic approach. In the army, you"ve got your point person, you"ve got your artillery guy, you"ve got your explosives guy. We should be set like that. Not everybody just out for themselves. I feel as though when the time is right there will be a new Killarmy album.
PB: What music are you listening to these days?
K9: I listen to a lot of different genres of music. Just recently the Doobie Brothers, Stevie Wonder, Michael McDonald, and Hall & Oates. I was also just listening to Moondog. John Frusciante really turned me on to Brian Eno when I was at his house. I was like I need this to help me sleep when I"m at home, and that's the thing, when I go to John"s house I just like to sit and listen to music. And he was listening to Schoolly D and a bunch of early hip hop records. We listen to a lot of different things. And then I told George Clinton I was working with John and he said he wanted to get him on a song. So I called John and said, "George Clinton wants to come hang." And John was like, "Hell yeah!" and so that turned into the song "Let the Good Times Roll" for George Clinton"s Gangster of Love album.
PB: Has Jay-Z proven that hiphop is not just a young man's game anymore?
K9: I like Jay-Z especially cause you look at his shows and he does his lyrics word for word and he looks cool. He still sounds like the record. Then you got Red and Meth, and they get up there and they primarily do word for word. You know they have Streetlife and them backing them up and everything, but they do phenomenal shows–it"s their whole movement and energy. Jay-Z"s energy has grown over the years. He moves around a lot more, but you know he"s just so cool and lax. He"s not on the mic screaming, but he"s getting his word out and clearly with the right energy. He does it without overdoing it. I want to be the artist that"s not looking crazy and over performing. I want my shit to be natural and I think that comes with rehearsing.
PB: What have you learned from Quentin Tarantino?
K9: What I learned from Tarantino is that TV is not bad for you. You know as a kid they tell you "you watch too much TV." Nowadays it"s video games for kids. But being around him we"d watch a lot of films. He"s very intelligent. He"s the Godfather, I call him. And since I"ve known him I watch more TV now and I don"t just limit myself to the new movies. I dig back, black and white.
PB: What projects do you have going on?
K9: I started Shell & Bomb Productions LLC in January 2013. It's a production company that is inclusive of writers, artists, producers, engineers, and basically all staff. It"s inclusive of anybody who is in the business that wants to play their part. So Shell & Bomb Productions I"m looking to take off the ground. I"m looking for new talent. I have some talent I"m working with and I just want to fuse those elements together and make good quality music, good sonic-sounding music. I haven"t put out an album as a solo artist yet and I"ve kinda been holding back for certain reasons just because I want to do it right. I"ve been dropping mixtapes here and there even for free. People always say why don"t you put out a solo album and I agree, but as an artist lies that conflict and it"s hard for me to keep doing things the same way. I want to do it on a bigger scale–the right financing, the right distribution. I"ve never had a manager, even coming up in Killarmy. Being around RZA I learned a lot. I learned the music business. I have years of experience as an artist, a writer, a performer, and as a producer now. I waited a long time for that. As a producer I wanted to make sure I was ready. Like RZA said recently in an interview: you need 10 years until you actually become a master of your craft. In the years in the field that I"ve done at any position I have over ten years experience. As an actor I"m about ten years in that too of actually being on the set. I can even add a couple more years just from working on music videos doing the lights. When they did the Holocaust video I didn"t want to be in the video I said I"ll do the lights. I"ve been meeting with a couple investors who have some interest. I"m confident that I will bring the majority of my ideas to light. I research it. I look at the market. I"m also open to suggestion. For Shell & Bomb I got all the proper pieces to make it work. It's the perfect time for me; it"s like being a president. They set the age for president at 35 because by then you have experienced life. So I"ve got the knowledge to do this, the wisdom and the understanding. It's my life.
Kinetic 9 is a rapper, best known as a member of the Wu-Tang Killarmy.

This is a common refrain you would hear from doctors: protecting your heart and health starts with lifestyle changes. Heart diseases claim the lives of more than 600,000 Americans every year, but it is quite easy to escape from being a part of this statistic. Eating healthy and exercising are the main lifestyle changes that will immediately improve your heart health. However, new research has revealed surprising facts on how to prevent heart disease in seven simple steps. for more information about health http://www.flixya.com/blog/5655010/There-are-several-factors-that-can-cause-the-eye-be-skipped
Vinegar Secrets: Heal the Heart, Brain
Step 1: Get active. Almost 70 percent of Americans lead a sedentary lifestyle, which increases the stress on their heart and body. However, working out for 30 minutes every day is more than enough to gain a cardio workout and total physical toning. http://www.writerscafe.org/writing/alisondean/1281986/
Step 2: Eat healthy food. Fresh food cooked with simple, low-fat ingredients is the best way to ensure a healthy heart. If possible, switch to organic, vegan, or fish diets to improve your heart health.
Step 3: Get in shape. Lose that body fat by adding a simple workout routine once a week. Simple aerobics, 30-minute walks or swim routines can reduce body fat levels by less than 30 percent.
Step 4: Stop smoking. Smoking can cause and aggravate high blood pressure, high blood cholesterol, and diabetes. At the same time, it also damages the lungs and the circulatory system.
Step 5: Control active diseases like diabetes. If you already suffer from diabetes, you should consult a physician and start a medication routine immediately. Uncontrolled diabetes can lead to kidney failure, high blood pressure, and a range of unpleasant health conditions. If you do not have diabetes, assess your risk for diabetes by consulting with a diabetologist and check your blood sugar levels every six months to ensure optimum health.
Step 6: Control high blood pressure as uncontrolled high blood pressure can push blood through the arteries with too much pressure and be dangerous. It eventually damages the heart and blood vessels and causes heart attacks and strokes. Ensure that your blood pressure is between 120/80 mmHg and 130/80 mmHg.
Editor's Note: 3 Signs Your Blood Sugar Is Killing You. Are You At Risk?
Step 7: Check your heart health regularly. Even with the right lifestyle changes, it is necessary to have a complete medical evaluation done every year. This is particularly important if you are over the age of 35, have a family history of high blood pressure and high blood cholesterol and have a body mass index (BMI) of 30 or more.
