The Best Workout for Different Body Types
For you to have a healthy body, you have to spend some time working out on any type of physical exercise. An effective workout doesn't just keep your muscles and bones regenerating but will also help in conditioning the heart and its particular functions. There are various kinds of exercises – many of which have proved to be great for the body, people come in different sizes and shapes.
There are actually three commonly acknowledged body types- ectomorph, endomorph and mesomorph. Being aware of what group your body type belongs to can help you decide the diet and fitness plans to stick to which will produce great results.
Body types are influenced by hereditary predisposition. Various body types need a variety of workout routines when a person's objective is to lose some weight and enhance the shape of the body. It is difficult to find an individual who epitomizes a perfect physique. A lot of people show qualities from each physique though one type will take control of.
Those who are Ectomorphic are generally tall, slender and in some may say slightly lanky as well as long limbs. They have fast metabolism, making them burn calories in a quite fast rate, staying lean generally, even though you may store it in which you do not want it!Ectomorphs like high intensity exercises that improve muscle mass. Basic weight training workouts, such as the bench press, deadlift and squats will always be part an important part of their workout plan. Cardio exercises must be avoided if you have to gain weight at the very least if you are trying to keep it. Diet must include high fat, protein and carbohydrates to make sure enough energy, as well as muscle repair.
A person who belongs in this body type is rounded along with sexy features, such as Mariah Carey. You notice that you simply gain weight quickly, it is because you have a slower metabolism, and you should monitor your food intake. Consequently, your body fat percentage is higher.
Endomorphs have to have regular (daily) cardio exercises along with strength training that has high repetitions to boost the improvement of muscles that can enhance their metabolism. Other activities such as walking, gardening, doing household chores, etc. that can help you in losing weight is effective. The endomorph's diet plan must be low fat, high protein and low carbohydrates split up into small regular meals.
If you belong in this body type, you've got a physique such as an upside down A, like Grace Jones. You've got broader shoulders and leaner hips, and usually possess an athletic look. However, mesomorphs appear as if they've got the perfect body type, glitches may occur if the mesomorphs start to have a sedentary lifestyle and eat foods loaded with carbohydrates and fats. Mesomorphs have to have a balanced exercise routine which involves cardio and strength training workouts and a healthy diet.

Have you been thinking about using interior design to change the look and feel of your home? It is safe to say that you are not alone and this article can help you look at different aspects of design. The advice you are about to read has been proven effective.
If you want a home office, the space needs to be functional. You will need a good ergonomic chair, a quality desk and enough light to do office work. Your work space should invite you to work, while making your work time comfortable as well as interesting to look at.
One smart tip about interior design is to always be aware of the lighting in a room. Using dark colors can make a room seem drab, uninviting and much smaller than it is. Use light colors to brighten up a room and give it the illusion of space that most people crave.
Before you begin anything, have a discussion about finances and costs. It would be a major disappointment to discover that you cannot afford the project that you have chosen. Doing this ahead of time will alleviate stress and allow you to enjoy the process of designing and remodeling.
When placing your art on the wall, make sure that it stays at eye level. If you hang the artwork too low or too high on the wall, it can make your room seem off-balanced and may even give the illusion that your room is smaller and poorly organized.
If you are considering re-designing the interior of your home you should investigate the current trends. You never want to be someone who looks like they been living in the past, especially the 70's, with that old tacky wallpaper. Take a look around to see what others are doing, and keep your eye on interior design magazines too.
Consider applying wallpaper to only half of a wall. Buying wallpaper for every room in the house adds up quickly. A way to save money then is to only cover half of it with wallpaper. Give the wallpaper a bold border then pick out a color to paint the remainder of your wall with. This approach can save you hundreds of dollars while creating a unique look for your walls.
If you're going to pain a space, don't rush! Rushing can lead to a color choice you may regret. Allow a few days between getting your paint samples and actually purchasing the paint. These samples can be placed on your wall so that you can see how it looks from different angles. Seeing a color on your own wall may change your overall opinion of the fit.
If your floors are concrete, stone, or tile, you can lay down some area rugs that give your rooms a cozy feel. Remember to rotate your rugs frequently so that the rug will wear evenly. By changing angles or moving the rugs, you can easily extend their lives.
You don't need fancy design magazines or expensive professionals to design your home. You just need the determination to learn how to properly design the best home for you. The advice found in the above article can assist you in this endeavor.

Former Texas ABC Counsel Lou Bright Joins Jack Martin & Associates
Jack Martin & Associates announced that Lou Bright, former General Counsel of the Texas Alcoholic Beverage Commission, has joined the firm. Bright counseled the Commission and its staff for nearly 16 years, "serving as a voice of reason in an often murky and muddled area of the law." As General Counsel, Bright drafted statutes and regulations, managed rule-making and contested case practice for the TABC, and worked with Commission staff, legislators, industry members and local governments in the interpretation and application of the Texas Alcoholic Beverage Code. He also helped the Commission navigate review by the Sunset Commission twice, a harrowing process for state agencies. For a number of years he held leadership roles with the National Conference of State Liquor Administrators and has been a frequent speaker on topics related to alcoholic beverage regulation.
"We are thrilled to have Lou join us at Jack Martin & Associates," said Jack Martin. "I had the opportunity to work with Lou throughout his tenure with the TABC. His knowledge of the law and his contacts within the industry, both in Texas and throughout the U.S., are impressive. But what really sets Lou apart are his analytic mind and his quick wit. Lou is not only sharp, he is really funny and we know that he will be a joy to work with on the same side of the table."
"I had an exceptionally happy and fortunate career working for the people of Texas, particularly during my years at the Commission," Bright said. "When it came time to end that phase of my career, I was elated to learn that I would still be able to contribute productive work in the industry I have come to love. The best part is that I am able to do it in collaboration with lawyers I like and admire so much."
With Jack Martin & Associates, Bright is expected to work on "tied house," marketing practice and other issues that tend to require intense legal analysis. "I am really looking forward to looking at some of the complex issues that I have dealt with over the years from a new perspective," Bright said. "I plan to take my practice at a relaxed pace and enjoy the process. And I believe that I have found a great place to do just that."
In addition to his of counsel position with Jack Martin & Associates, Bright serves as the General Counsel of the Texas Wine and Grape Grower's Association.
Since 1999, Jack Martin & Associates has represented alcoholic beverage retailers, marketers, distributors and manufacturers in all matters related to their regulated operations in Texas. The attorneys and staff at Jack Martin & Associates have more than 50 years of combined experience representing clients before the TABC, the Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau and local government agencies in alcoholic beverage matters.

Finally getting around to pushing through another update! This one was supposed to be about salmon, but we couldn't find any 7/12, and reports up & down the coast were similar. So we swapped to jigging up some live anchovies & doing some rock cod fishing!
But before we get to that, a few updates! I meant to go fishing to try out these cool new swim baits I got from JigStop.com, but didn't manage to wake up in time… Apparently marathon-ing Halo 4 from 9pm on means I go to bed too late to wake up on time… So good news is I'm actually making up the gap! I didn't skip out on video editing & blogging to go fishing! Huzzah! But yes, the swimbaits:
Some of you may see the Brown Bait and think, wait, that looks almost right… Yea, its a different guy. I was recently introduced to MC Brown Bait swimbaits and promptly had the tail of 2 of them chewed off in minutes by something…
So I went to try to buy some from JigStop, and this is where my journey begins… I ordered some, the site said there was availability too. A friend also buys some for himself. He gets a call about them being out of stock, and they offer to swap it out for other colors.
2 days later, I still haven't received any call about my MC Brown Bait. I sent in a request asking what was up with my order, and got a call back. They were out of MC Christmas Tree, but offered to sub me out to BigHammer Christmas Tree. 100% okay with that. Shipment went out! Apparently they now have MC Brown Bait?
But then I get the package:
I did some research and this color is actually called "Toast" and part of the viejo series? But somehow this body shape is the right…anyways. This is what MC Brown Bait color is:
And so I call back to ask about it. What they did is why I'm even talking about this. They offered to refund me the toast (3x order), let me keep it, and sent me those two Recon bait colors as samples free of charge!
I even got a letter:
They were also wonderful on the phone. So what's the point? Buy from them if they have what you want. The customer service is stellar. Normally I wouldn't make such a big deal, but they definitely went above and beyond.
Back to the report though! It was a beautiful day for salmon & rock cod fishing:
So we trolled around the Pacifica Pier area. You can even see it in parts of the video:
Wonder how the fishing was off the pier… It might just kill me if someone caught one off the pier that day & we didn't on a boat…
There was tons of bait, and whales breaching everywhere! Big ol' whales. By the way, if whales are your thing I hear they're going crazy at Half Moon Bay lately. There are so many that people have to be careful when they drive around, heard someone almost got hit by one on their way out of the jaws! Apparently they move really quickly when they're feeding or something?
Anyhow, we're pretty sure this , Vijay, is the reason our salmon fishing didn't go so well & we were forced to swap to rock cod & ling cod fishing:
We fished on the same side of the boat and I caught like 4 fish. The other side had like 6 lings each D:
Was cool though, the chovies were swimming shallow enough that I could snap pics of them with my phone and actually see them:
You can actually see them vibrating our poles as we troll through them. Wicked cool. We jigged up a giant tank full of bait so we could go after rock cod with some live bait
Anyhow, you'll have to watch the video for more action. I spent most of it up on the side of the ship watching my pole fruitlessly… While everyone else was catching fish far away so I couldn't take pics. We filled two of the coolers on the boat, one with lots of colorful cod & one full of lings!
And we got to see a big mola mola (Sunfish) too!
Whale in all its whaleness
Since we didn't get to take any salmon home, we decided we had to go put a dent in the population another way, all you can eat sushi!
There's this new-ish place near the harbor called Monster Chef. Pretty tasty once you know what to order. Most of it is delicious but there's a few things to watch out for. Their striped bass & scallop aren't great. Hamachi has been good 3/4 trips so far.
Service is pretty good though. And its not like $60/person, I think its only $25-30? Either way, its a tasty stop if you feel like you need to eat before heading home. That's going to wrap it up for this one! I finally put together all the crabbing stuff, so maybe I'll do that update next (we went recently, 10/2, for an overnight trip).
I also have 2 salmon trips, and one rock cod w/ a halibut too. All should be September-ish, so more relevant…
Oh! I'm also planning to rent a skiff out of Santa Cruz this weekend, most likely 10/10. I think there were a few readers who wanted to tag along? So far there's only 2 of us confirmed, 1 is a maybe. Send me an email/text if you guys are interested! I'll try to track down your guys' contacts to reach out to you too.
Just remember, I've only fished there once! d= But you're more than welcome to tag along and just try your luck like us! As usual, more photos can also be found in the album here: http://imgur.com/a/E4nID/all

N. Hingley & Sons Ltd, Washington Street, Netherton
- Ref No: p/430
- Repository: Dudley Archives & Local History Service
- Date: [c1960]
- Description: Goods wagon belonging to Hingley's on display in a museum.
- Admin History: A forge and a small chain-making factory was founded by Noah Hingley (1796-1877) at Cradley, in the early 1800s. The company later produced pig iron for the manufacture of wrought iron. Noah Hingley leased mining areas from the Earl of Dudley in order to raise his own coal, limestone, and iron ore. Hingley's activities encompassed the Netherton Ironworks; The Harts Hill Iron Works; The Old Hill Furnaces; and various collieries. Until 1820, Noah Hingley was a nail master and maker of small chains, but by the 1830s, he had established himself as an ironmaster - manufacturing pig iron and wrought iron, before establishing his chain works at Netherton in 1837. It was one of, if not the largest cable making factory in the world. In 1848 he began making anchors and cables for the shipping industry. New extended premises were erected at Netherton in 1852. Noah Hingley died in 1877 and was succeeded by his son, Benjamin Hingley (1830-1905). He ran the company until 1895 when he was forced to retire due to a serious illness. The Company was then taken over by his nephews, George Benjamin Hingley (1850-1918), who became Managing Director, and Henry Montagu Hingley (1855-1909). George Benjamin Hingley was a long-standing member of the Midland Iron and Steel Wages Board; and served as vice-chairman of the South Staffordshire Ironmasters Association. By 1909, 90% of all Britain's production of chain took place in the Netherton and Cradley areas; and Hingley's was the largest chain manufacturer in that area, at one point, they were manufacturing some 10,000 tons of anchors and chains per year. Most of the big ocean-going liners of Cunard and other companies had anchors and chains made by Hingleys - for example in 1911, Hingley's manufactured the enormous 15 ton anchor for the ill-fated SS Titanic. The anchor was pulled through the streets of Netherton by 20 shire horses, and the townspeople turned out to watch the spectacular event. They also made the anchor for the yacht of Tzar Nicholas of Russia.
Other companies were taken over from the early 20th century (some absorbed, others maintained as wholly owned subsidiaries, etc.) and further subsidiaries established. In the post-Second World War (1939-1945) era some dormant subsidiaries were revived and renamed as the group took on (albeit incompletely) a holding company-operating subsidiary pattern. Various activities were grouped (e.g. "Engineering") and in the 1960s subsidiaries and plants were rationalised. The whole group was absorbed by F.H. Lloyd and Company, Ltd. of Wednesbury in 1966 but the consequent reorganisation of management, subsidiaries and activities was not completed until 1970/71, at which time F.H. Lloyd was reconstructed as a holding company and Hingley's became one of its principal subsidiaries through which various of the old Hingley subsidiaries were controlled.

'Let's clean up' - Councillor's appeal to give town's pigeon poo problem the push
PUBLISHED: 15:59 16 March 2019 | UPDATED: 16:15 16 March 2019
A Norfolk councillor is urging residents and business owners in one of the county's market towns to give pigeons the 'push' to improve its centre.
Harry Clarke, Breckland District and Dereham Town councillor, put forward a proposal at last months's town council meeting to call in the experts to undertake a survey of the feral pigeon issue within its centre.
He said: "Many of us had been concerned for some time at the problem which causes damage to buildings, is a danger of disease and literally adds to the 'unsightly sites' list, which I reported on behalf of residents over year ago.
"One of those sites, the Akash restaurant, is now at the top of Breckland's action list.
"Some will have seen the concern at Diss Town Council, after a child's death in Glasgow, and the appalling state at the front of the town's Barclays bank, including the ATM covered in excrement."
At the end of last year the Barclays branch, on Market Place, vowed to clean up its act after receiving a complaint about large quantities of bird mess on its exterior walls and cashpoint .
At the time, resident Justin Dack took to social media to express his disgust after finding birds faeces covering part of the cash machine.
The father-of-two posted on Twitter and shared photos.
A spokesperson from Barclays quickly responded and promised to feed back to the management team of the branch. Earlier this year, contractors visited the branch to clean the front of the building and to help develop a long term solution to the problem.
Mr Clarke has since thanked the management personally.
He has also toured the town with two pest control experts from a national company, who pointed out areas of concern.
"I hadn't noticed," he said. "These include deceased pigeons on ledges and excrement, and nests near food outlets to name two issues. I have reported these to Environmental Health.
"I have also reported these result to the Dereham Town Council, who agreed to write to the offending property owners and encourage them to take action to prevent pigeons roosting.
"Fast food outlets and their customers can play their part too by making sure any waste or wrappers are placed in a bin.
"Let's clean up the town centre and its high street."
Mr Clarke added that the situation would be "monitored closely" and hoped to see improvements.

BottleRock Napa Valley, high-energy music festival with unlimited wine and food, rocked wine country only a couple of weeks back. The most vibrant performances included that of local string, bluegrass band, The Brothers Comatose. The Brothers Comatose, "a band that really jams" that consists of brothers, Ben and Alex Morrison, hit the main stage on Saturday evening, opening for The Avett Brothers and Robert Plant. Following the festival, I connected with the up-and-coming west coast band to ask a few questions that had been on my mind after seeing their lively set.
The Brothers Comatose's music is so full of life and energy, what inspired the name The Brothers Comatose?
"It completely popped into my head one morning as I was sleeping on someone's floor. I attribute it to the fact that Alex (mybrother/banjo player for the band) rolls his eyes in the back of his head when he gets into the zone while he plays."
With how high-energy The Brothers Comatose's music is, do you feel performing live is a better representation of your music as a whole? How does the audience's vibes effect your music?
"It's definitely a different experience. Our music is so much more fun when people get involved. People clapping and singing along and hooting and hollering at us gives us energy and we end up putting more into the show. It's definitely a symbiotic relationship."
I know you are local to San Francisco, is there a difference in the crowd's energy in shows The Brothers Comatose plays close to home versus elsewhere?
"The radius to our hometown doesn't really affect the crowd's energy. It's completely based on the vibe of any given town. There are little pockets all over the country that are way more energetic and dancey. I think it has to do with the ability to let go and not care what other people think about you and how you enjoy a show. In bigger cities, people tend to be more reserved. In mountain towns, people tend to start dancing from beat one. It's really dependent on where you are and who is surrounding you. We love those shows where nobody cares how cool they look."
A lot of bluegrass groups, string bands in particular, jam on in their songs almost endlessly sometimes. Is there a reason why The brothers Comatose's songs are usually the average three to five minutes in length?
"We all have very short attention spans. Plus, all of us are into rock and pop music where it's very form oriented and nobody really jams. We've only more recently delved into the jam world. Not to fear though…we won't start wearing tye dyed shirts anytime soon and our songs are still gonna be concise."
How does the songwriting process usually go for The Brothers Comatose, is it a group or one man effort?
"More recently, everyone has been contributing. It works best though if someone brings the skeleton of a song and then the rest of the band works to arrange it and make it Comatose-like."
With big music festivals, especially like BottleRock, how do you choose a set list that will cater to both the fans there to see only you and the less familiar members of the audience?
With big music festivals, especially like BottleRock, how do you choose a set list that will cater to both the fans there to see only The Brothers Comatose and the less familiar members of the audience?
"It's a hard thing to do. We have certain things we've road tested that tend to work – like starting songs and ending songs – but we change everything based on where we're playing and to whom we're playing. The environment has lots to do with it. If it's a sit down crowd, we go with a more mellow set list. If it's a main stage at a big festival, we play the bangers."
I've heard from other interviews The Brothers Comatose has done that this band is really an extension of house parties you used to have as brothers. Brothers are often pretty rowdy with one another, do things every get crazy on the road with you two? Any specific instances stand out?
"We used to fight a ton when we were younger. As soon as we started playing music and smoking weed, things definitely mellowed out between us. We definitely still bicker a bunch but it never goes further than that. No physical fights anymore. We haven't reached Oasis status quite yet."
A lot of bluegrass and folk bands are starting to change their music into a more alternative rock or pop sound. How do you see The Brothers Comatose's sound transforming over the next few years?
"I don't see us adding a drummer or keyboards or getting rid of banjo or anything like that. I know a lot of bands are going for that sound these days but I don't think that quite suits us. Who knows what the future holds and we could pick up something along the way, but don't expect an arena rock band."
The Brothers Comatose is not complete without fiddle player, Phil Brezina, and Ryan Avellone on mandolin. They expect to release a new album this year in 2015 following albums, "Respect the Van" and "Songs From the Stoop".

Shortly after arriving in "Heaven" he meets a new soul, Annie Packert, who has never lived on Earth before.

text: Oh what a night!! Despite the threat of heavy rain for the evening many turned out to trip the light fantastic on the sprung floor of the Pigeon Bay Community Hall. All ages were represented and had a great time mingling together on and off the dance floor. The DJ played many old hits from some classic vinyls. It was obvious that many op shops had been raided and everyone had gotten into the spirit of the night. The supper was to die for and I doubt anyone went home hungry afterwards. Many thanks must go to Brenda Graham for her superb organisation of the Op Shop Ball. She had an idea and ran with it right to the end and it was well worth the effort. Enjoy the photos.

Instructors test-drive team assessment tools
Are you curious on how, when and where to apply self/peer assessment in your courses? Would you like to know more about the research and assessment tools developed by ITP Metrics Lab? Join Dr. Tom O'Neill and Nicole Larsen in the Implementing ITP Metrics tools in the classroom workshop Tuesday, January 31 from 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. in the Centre for Dialogue, LIC or via Livestream.
Instructors who are familiar with the tools are invited to participate in the afternoon session as well, Digging Deeper into Self/Peer Assessment, same location, from 1:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. or via Livestream. Please RSVP to email@example.com.
Assistant Professor and Program Head, Ross Porter, Associate Faculty and Team Coaches, Michael Pardy and Nooreen Shah-Preusser along with Team Coach, Trish Dyck have been taking the assessment tools designed by ITP Metrics on the road for a test drive.
Instructors say "ITP Metrics is one of the best in its class"…. "it is worth taking for a test drive today"… and "a solid performer in helping student teams excel"….
The instructor ratings in the following categories are:
Uses intuitive technology: 5*
Student Centered: 5*
Aligns with RRU L&TM: 5*
Based on credible in research and based in Canada: 5*
Ross Porter shares his experience saying, "ITP Metrics offers very robust tools (self/peer assessment and team health) that produce valuable reports that arm learners with information and insight on their performance."
Michael Pardy has used a combination of the ITP Metrics assessment tools across a variety of courses and says, "they provide me with an opportunity to peer into the team process, and informs how I manage those teams and adds to my instructional tool box".
Nooreen Shah-Preusser spoke of ease of use of the tools and that she loves that "the reports generated are useful for instructors and students because they lead to meaningful discussion."
Trish Dyck notes "…early research with Royal Roads student teams shows student performance on teams, thus team performance overall is enhanced with a strategic approach to implementing self/peer assessments."
Conference Board of Canada most recent report on employability skills outlines three major areas that are needed to participate and progress in today's dynamic world of work: fundamental skills, personal management skills and teamwork skills. Royal Roads Learning and Teaching Model outlines our commitment to support students learning in these skills.

Hi all,
I have just got the new Raspberry Pi model a+ and was very excited. Removed the old model a, and replaced it with the new model a+'s 26 compatible pins. I started fine, and I can see it runs the code as it should. However, I have already run into two problems.
1.The HDMI port does not show anything on the screen anymore. This has never been an issue before. I use the LINDY hdmi to vga adaptor.
2.I was very excited to see how much the powerconsumption would decrease. But was very disapointed to see the powerconsumption actually increased by 50%, whitch was a bit of a blow.
I have just replaced the old model a with the new model a+ and copied a raspian image to a 16gb micro sd. I know there is not a lot of experence yet on the subject, but maybe some of you also will have simular problemems?
Best Regards Allan

It's been quite the roller-coaster year for investors in LINN Energy (OTC:LINEQ). The company has made its share of headlines this year, which started with the announcement of a $4.3 billion joint bid with its affiliate LinnCo (NASDAQ: LNCO) for Berry Petroleum (NYSE: BRY). Most of its other headlines have come from the mounting pressure from short sellers, which have been questioning the company's hedging and accounting practices. Now, this news flow has caught the eye of the SEC which has commenced an informal inquiry to look into the company's practices.
According to a press release from LINN Energy:
The SEC has requested the preservation of documents and communications that are potentially relevant to, among other things, LinnCo's proposed merger with Berry Petroleum Company, and LINN and LinnCo's use of non-GAAP financial measures and hedging strategy. The SEC has stated that the fact of the inquiry should not be construed as an indication that the SEC or its staff has a negative view of any entity, individual or security. LINN and LinnCo are cooperating fully with the SEC in this matter.
As an investor in both LINN and LinnCo, as well as someone who has followed the company quite closely, I can't say that I'm surprised by the move. The allegations that short sellers have been making are quite serious, basically insinuating that LINN is in a sense a pyramid scheme. The SEC really should be looking into this just to make sure those allegations aren't actually true.
Unfortunately, this is adding a bigger dose of uncertainty to the company in the short term. Longer term, there is a silver lining as this whole process should eventually bring some more clarity to LINN's business, including whether or not it was correct in how it accounted for the items that short sellers are pointing out.
The tough part for investors will be dealing with the uncertainty that must be endured until the investigation runs its course. Investors should actually brace themselves for the possibility that the informal investigation by the SEC could lead to a more formal investigation if its staff believes that wrongdoing occurred, which could then lead to an enforcement action as well as requiring the company to fix any past mistakes.
While we don't know how long it will take the SEC to complete its investigation, nor do we know what it will find, investors really should welcome this process because the SEC is there to protect our interests. If nothing is amiss, then LINN's management team and long-term investors will be vindicated. Meanwhile, if something does come up that needs to be fixed, investors will be best served to have those issues fixed so we can move on.
Until that time, this added uncertainty also would appear to signal that investors will see a further delay in the closing of the proposed Berry Petroleum merger. Berry already delayed its shareholder vote on the matter and isn't likely to reschedule the vote until the SEC inquiry is cleared up. LINN clarified in the press release: "[Although] the impact of the inquiry on the timing of LinnCo's proposed merger with Berry Petroleum Company is difficult to predict, LinnCo and LINN remain committed to the completion of the transaction." The companies have made it pretty clear that everyone is still committed to the merger; however, there is always the risk that the deal could fall through and it's that uncertainty that has also spooked investors.
The bottom line is that LINN still has more work to do before it can close its acquisition of Berry Petroleum. It's better to get that work out of the way, get its name cleared or its issues fixed so that it can move forward. So, while the delay isn't ideal, when LINN does finally close its deal for Berry it will have clearer path to make similar deals in the future. LINN really has been blazing a new trail since its formation, as is evident in how it set up LinnCo, so it's only logical that it will come up against a few road blocks along the way.

Alan Shatter last night refused to apologise to a Garda whistleblower for claiming he refused to co-operate with a penalty points probe.
The Justice Minister rejected calls to say sorry to Maurice McCabe and stood by his claims that the sergeant was invited to take part in the investigation.
He admitted that he wasn't ordered to put him in direct contract with the Garda Commissioner Martin Callinan.
Minister Shatter said: "He clearly wasn't directed to engage but he was invited to engage with Commissioner O'Mahony.
"In a letter from one of my Departmental officials he was asked to co-operate. Different people have different perceptions of this issue."
Minister Shatter said he expected that the sergeant would have been interviewed by the team investigating the alleged quashing of penalty points.
A Dail committee tonight refused to release a transcript from a Garda whistleblower.
The Public Accounts Committee had debated whether to allow Maurice McCabe a copy of his evidence in private.
It sent the decision to the Committee on Dail Procedures and Privileges.
Last night that committee rejected the proposal and said it could not give Mr McCabe a transcript.
It decided what was said in private should stay in private.
He said: "There may be fault on both sides.
"For someone had such a commitment to this issue knowing that an investigation was taking place advised in ongoing correspondence by an official in my department that if they had further information they should give it to the Garda authorities and then doesn't do so.
"I don't see that as being described as being co-operative but equally quite frankly I don't understand why as phone call wasn't made and told 'come a long to an interview'.
"But I don't see how he can be described as being co-operate in circumstances when he was invited one to come along to an interview or a meeting."
Fianna Fail TD John McGuinness also raised a case of a female whistleblower who was warned by Oliver Connolly she would end up washing cars if she pursued a sexual harrassment case.
He said: "I would like to have asked the confidential recipient why he said to the lady that the last man who used the service was now washing cars in Navan."That is what was said. The person stands over that claim."
"The confidential recipient, responding to a person making a complaint, said that the last man who used the service was now washing cars in Navan."
Socialist Party TD Joe Higgins said Minister was proving sorry was the hardest word to say and asked why can't you just say that.
Mr McCabe confirmed he never received a call, an email, a text message or a directive telling him to work with Assistant Commissioner John O'Mahony's investigation.
A source close to Mr McCabe said he is confident he will be proved right when the barrister Sean Guinan reports back to the Taoiseach in eight weeks time.
Minister Shatter said this was a difference of opinion but he had not misled the House and the Garda Commissioner had not misled him.
He launched a robust defence of his actions of dealing with Mr McCabe and claimed he didn't have any interest in having a public or private argument with him.
The Justice Minister said: "It has been a central personal commitment of my entire adult life that we have the best system possible to administer justice in the State, and for many years during my period in this House, it was Deputy Martin's party that obstinately opposed and delayed the implementation of crucial reform and the modernisation of our criminal justice system.
"A commitment to the rule of law and to the principle that individuals are innocent until proven guilty is a central feature and a proven principle of this democracy which should not be overthrown by any Member of this House seeking political gain."
He raised concerns over why Mr McCabe was recording other members of the force and said in any other circumstances there would be huge anger at this.
Mr Shatter said: "I would question a member of An Garda Siochana is secretly taping other individuals.
"I think if that was happening on other circumstances there would be uproar in this House."
Mr Shatter said his predecessor Dermot Ahern had received an email on March 29 2009 from Mr McCabe and the Minister's secretary general had responded to that letter.
Micheal Martin said his former colleague had never received a dossier from Sgt McCabe and said attempts to blame the Fianna Fail/Green Government was
The FF leader said Minister Shatter has been driven constantly by an obsessive need to justify himself and has not given a full and balanced picture of what is in the Department's files.
He pointed to the murder of Limerick woman Sylvia Roche Kelly and how her death could have been prevented.
Her killer Jerry McGrath was out on bail for attacking a taxi driver Mary Lynch when he brutally killed her.
The Fianna Fail leader also raised two others mentioned in the case file handed to him by the Garda whistleblower.
He said: "In one case, a young woman who was savagely beaten received €150 - €50 from each attacker.
"In another case, a man was savagely beaten and the case was not entered in the PULSE system for nine months. That is the point.
"We can dress up the issue or create smokescreens all we like, but the quality of internal investigations is at stake."
Mr Shatter said he sacked the confidential recipient Oliver Connolly because he did not dispute a transcript which showed him warning Mr McCabe not to take on the Justice Minister.
The Fine Gael TD said he found it "extraordinary" and said he would never pursue that way with any whistleblower.
Mr Martin said the firing of Mr Connolly showed Minister Shatter was willing to take out his friends to protect himself.
Minister Shatter said he wasn't appointed because he had handed over €1,000 to the Fine Gael TD's election campaign.
He told the Dail: "I didn't actually recall that at the time. What I did do was consider who was an appropriate person at the time. I thought he was an ideal person for appointment."
Former Junior Minister Roisin Shortall said in any other country Minister Shatter would have been sacked.
She said: "The response of the Minister for Justice and Equality to this entire saga has been appalling in my view.
"He broadcasted allegations against Deputy Wallace based on tittle tattle, which was a disgrace. In any other country, he would be sacked for that alone.
"However, his most serious bad mouthing is in respect of Sergeant McCabe. He has consistently tried to peddle the untruth that Sergeant McCabe did not co-operate with the Garda inquiry into his allegations of Garda misconduct."
Independent TD Mick Wallace called on Minister Shatter to resign and take the Garda Commissioner with him.
He said: "The Minister looks up at these benches and wonders how those people, with their long hair and raggy jeans, have the audacity to challenge him.
"The people of Wexford did not elect me to come in here and approve of the Minister's behaviour. They put me in here to challenge it.
"It is time for the Minister to go and to bring the Commissioner with him."
His colleague Clare Daly said she was disgusted by the Minister and said she didn't want to live in a society that would hide these allegations.
She said: "I am heartily sick of this situation. I am disgusted by the Minister's antics, his behaviour today and his behaviour in the past.
"I do not want to be part of a society that stands over this type of cover up and I do not believe Irish citizens do either. The Minister might think he has got away with it, but he has not."
A report is being compiled by the top counsel and will report back to the Taoiseach in two months.

In the procession the people meet Jesus with palm branches, in the passion they slap him in the face and strike his head with a rod. In the one they extol him with praises, in the other they heap insults upon him. In the one they compete to lay their clothes in his path, in the other he is stripped of his own clothes. In the one he is welcomed to Jerusalem as just king and savior, in the other he is thrown out of the city as a criminal…If, then, we want to follow our leader without stumbling through prosperity and through adversity, let us keep our eyes upon him, honored in the procession, undergoing ignominy and suffering in the passion, yet unshakably steadfast in all such changes of fortune.
Blessed Guerric of Igny

I give you a new commandment, that you love one another … John 13:34
At 'The House' we encourage membership because God did not design us to be floating believers. Membership calls us to be a vital organ in a living body. A member is someone who has made a practical committment to the God given purposes of the local church he/she attends. Members agree to pray for the church, attend regularly, give generously, discover their ministry gifts, take part in decision making etc. Without church membership it's very difficult to grow as a Christian.
To join The House as a member you would need to attend our Discovery Class. It's a half day program that explains the church vision, strategy, culture and so on. We also explain the essentials of the Christian faith such as Salvation, Baptism, Communion etc. At the end of it you will be asked to consider signing a Membership Covenant. The membership process concludes with your being offered the right hand of fellowship on the next Communion Sunday (typical Baptist practice did you say?:)
If after a period of attending The House (usually near consistent for 12 weeks) you want to join formally as a member please speak to anyone wearing a name badge in church and we will set things in motion.
To become a member of 'The House' you will need to have a saving relationship with Christ (don't worry if you don't know what that means, we cover everything in our membership class) You will also need to have been baptised by immersion. Finally every one who want's to join up as a member is required to sign a membership covenant – again this is covered in our membership class.
Membership Classes are held three times a year and its's usually on a Saturday and is about 4 hours long. In it we cover things like how you can fit into the life of the church, why we do the things we do, our discipleship process and much more. We also spend some time looking at matters of salvation, baptism and communion. You'll also hear a lot about our five purposes – Worship, Fellowship, Discipleship, Ministry and Mission. Everything is clearly explained and there's plenty of room to ask questions. It may seem a long day but there are breaks in-between for snacks and lunch. We look forward to seeing you at one of our classes. Sign up for a class below.
Receiving into fellowship is a formal ceremony where new members are giving what's called the right hand of fellowship. It usually takes place after communion and the oldest member of the church gives each new member a welcome handshake followed by representatives of the men and women's fellowship as appropriate. There is also a reading where you promise to support the church. In return the church members present also promise to pray and support you wholeheartedly. This practice is an old traditional baptist practice but we have retained it as we are convinced that formal reception into membership is a good thing.

Sustainable development is a concept that Mascaro has been instrumental in supporting since 1993 when we completed the Heinz Family Foundation and Office project, one of the first "green buildings" in the area. Our experience includes over eight million square feet of LEED® recognized projects with an aggregate value in excess of $1.9 billion.
Our expertise in sustainable construction is a result of approximately 27 LEED professionals who have participated in over 55 LEED construction projects. Additionally, Mascaro was the first contractor from the Western Pennsylvania, Ohio, and West Virginia area to be ranked by Engineering News-Record's Top 100 Green Contractors. In 2019, Mascaro ranked No. 88, making the list for the thirteenth consecutive year.

House and Senate negotiators are currently working to complete action on a government-wide FY 2018 spending package. One of the differences between the House and Senate appropriations bills is the Senate proposal to increase the Passenger Facility Charge (PFC) to $4 per enplanement and boost Airport Improvement Program (AIP) investment by $250 million to $3.6 billion. The House transportation funding measure did not include a PFC increase and would keep AIP investment at $3.35 billion for the seventh consecutive year.
Airline groups continue to fight the PFC increase, claiming it would generate an additional $3.2 billion in taxes. What the airlines don't mention is that this $3.2 billion would be invested in airport capital improvements. Furthermore, a $4 PFC increase would be 84 percent less than what airlines charge passengers to check a bag on a direct flight! The PFC has not been increased since 2000.
The ARTBA co-chaired Transportation Construction Coalition (TCC) last week wrote to the bipartisan leadership of the House and Senate urging them to support both the Senate PFC and AIP proposals. The TCC reminded members of Congress, "The language in the Senate Appropriations bill does not require local officials to increase their PFC – rather, it allows airports the flexibility to address their respective infrastructure needs at the local level."
Your Help Needed:
You can reach the offices of your senators and representatives by calling the Capitol switchboard at 202.225.3121. Please tell them:
- U.S. airports have $100 billion in infrastructure needs over the next four years, according to the Airports Council International-North America.
- Continuing status quo investment threatens the ability of airports to keep up with growing passenger demands.
- Please support the Senate PFC and AIP proposals to deliver needed resources to improve the nation's airport infrastructure.
Please contact ARTBA's Senior Vice President of Congressional Relations Dean Franks at email@example.com or 202-289-4434 with any questions.

The Child V1
Download MP3: eng_1.mp3
Explanation of this Guided Experience
This experience is intended to put us in touch with our earliest registers of injustice, and therefore it uses the setting of a childhood scene. Next, our current sensations of injustice are also evoked, and we compare them to our first experiences of this kind in order to discover a relationship between our current and past experiences.
Guided Experience
It is early in the morning as I walk through the countryside, and I feel happy and at peace. Up ahead, I see a stone building that seems to be very old. Its ancient roof is also made of stone, and along the front stand large marble columns.
As I near the building, I can see it has a massive metal door. Suddenly I'm surprised when two ferocious beasts charge toward me from one side of the building. Fortunately they're held back by strong chains that stop them just out of reach.
I can't approach the door without being attacked by the animals, so I throw them a sack of food. The beasts eagerly devour the food, and soon fall fast asleep.
Approaching the door, I inspect it carefully, but can't find a door handle or any other way to open it. Nevertheless I push gently, and the door swings open with an ancient creaking sound.
A long, softly lit room opens before me. I cannot see to the end, but on the left and right are life-size paintings that reach nearly to the floor. Each portrays a different scene. The first, on my left, depicts a magician seated behind a table spread with cards, dice, and other games of chance. My gaze is drawn to this character's curious hat.
I try to run my finger over the hat in the painting, but feel no resistance to my touch—instead my arm enters right into the picture. So I go ahead and put one leg, and then my whole body into the painting.
Raising a hand, the magician exclaims, "Not so fast, you can't come in unless you pay admission!"
Searching through my pockets, I pull out a small crystalline sphere, which I give to this trickster. The colorful character nods, and I enter.
It is night, and I find myself in an amusement park. Everywhere I see mechanical rides, filled with light and movement, but I do not see any people.
Then I discover a child about ten years old who is facing away from me. As I move closer, the youngster turns to look at me, and I realize it is myself when I was that age. (*)
"What are you doing here?" I ask. The child tells me something about an injustice that has happened, and then begins to cry. To console the child, I promise that we'll go on some rides, but the youngster insists on talking about the injustice. In order to understand the child better, I try to recall what happened to me at that age that was so unfair. (*)
Now I remember that injustice. And somehow I realize it's like a situation I'm experiencing in my life right now. I reflect on this, but the child continues to cry. (*)
So I say, "All right then, I'm going to straighten out this injustice that seems to keep happening to me. To begin with, I'll be friendly toward the people who are creating this situation for me." (*)
I notice that the youngster is laughing now. With an affectionate pat I say that we'll be seeing each other again. Saying good-bye, the child goes away very happy.
I leave the amusement park, passing beside the magician, who gives me a quick sidelong glance. As I go by, I brush against his hat, prompting a playful wink from this extraordinary character.
I emerge from the painting, and once again find myself in the long room. Walking slowly, I cross the room and go through the door.
Outside, the animals remain fast asleep, and I pass between them without fear.
The magnificent day greets me. I make my way back across the open fields, whistling and singing, with the sensation that at last I understand a situation that has been a burden to me for a very long time. (*)
It is important to recognize the situations in your daily life where you are subjected to specific injustices. Ask yourself what kind of injustices you especially encounter, and moreover, if most of them (above all, those that you feel are most important), are related to the same situation or if they are linked to a certain kind of person. When you have these ideas clear, it won't be difficult to find a close connection between these present situations and your childhood experiences.
Reconciling with the people that have produced these "injustices" is not an easy task, and proposing to do so sparks strong reactions. Nevertheless, overcoming these resistances in daily life, or at least repeating this Guided Experience, can open new possibilities of behavior, and new points of view in relating to others.

Rent, don't buy says Kevin McCloud. Kevin McCloud, presenter of Grand Designs has urged Britons to consider the benefits of renting instead of owning a home. It's well known that owning a home has become an obsession in British culture.
This is down to several reasons, yet is it always the best attitude or could we be happier renting? Although the presenter has spent a successful career helping homeowners renovate or build their dream homes (who often spend millions of pounds in the process) he believes renting offers a solution.
'The prices have peaks then drop, but essentially property in the UK will always be of a premium because there's not enough of it. So that doesn't work for a country that is one of the most populated in Europe. There is a tradition of social housing in other countries but we don't have it.' McCloud said. He commented on the fact that Britons seem allergic to the idea of renting – even though it's a perfectly good idea. 'I rented for years and loved it – no responsibilities, no clearing of gutters. It left me free to actually enjoy my life.'
McCloud also criticised the Government's plan to build 250,000 new homes a year will fail, claiming the quality of the properties will not be good enough to attract buyers. The Times quoted 'Until in this country we get the spaces between buildings right, then every single housing scheme will fail. The home is the heart of people's lives. It's the launch pad of our lives and the sense of ownership goes beyond that. It stretches out into the park, the allotment, the car club.'
Do you think people are better off renting than owning a property or are there pro's and cons to both? We want to hear your thoughts…

The way you repay your home equity loan depends on the terms of the plan that you agreed to with your lender. Sometimes you only pay the interest throughout the duration of the loan and, at the end, when the loan is due, you pay back the whole principal. If you have a balloon payment like that facing you, you can choose to use the money you have on hand or possibly refinance your loan. Another option is to borrow from a different lender to pay back your equity loan. The catch with a home equity loan is that if you don't pay back the borrowed money on time, you could lose your house.
Normally, your payment plan won't be that rigid. You can pay off more than the minimum each month, and that extra money goes toward the principal. That way, you're not stuck with a massive payment at the end. If you want to sell your home before you've repaid your equity loan, you'll have to pay off the loan before the sale can go through.
Before you go ahead with a home equity loan, you need to decide whether you'll be able to handle the debt. This depends partially on the stability of your employment. Credit counseling agencies can be helpful when it comes to figuring out your financial situation. Generally, home equity loans are recommended for people with a specific need for the money, like a remodeling project. And before you commit to any lender, get an estimate of all the charges you'll incur with your proposed loan. By law, the lender owes you the estimate within three days of your loan application. Examine the terms and ask around to make sure that you're getting a fair deal and that the loan-to-value ratio is under 80 percent. Anything over that will carry huge interest rates that will make repayment more difficult.

Hello! My clients iphone 4s:n battery connector broke, when i tried accidentally take the battery out with a plastic tool from the wrong side.
Connector detached completely, so that the two middle ironcensors came with it and was stuck to the connector. When i screw the whole connector back to phone, it works with battery power, but the batterys downloading doesnt work. Are these two middle censors that are stuck in the connector exactly the ones that should be charging the battery? Do you know how i can fix this? I have already bought electrical conductor glue, but should the parts be cleaned somehow first? And how can i fix it, when the center metal sensors on the system board is also attached to the battery?
How can i clean out thiskind of part with windex? I have purchased almost all of the possible tools from iFixit and the electrical conductor glue i bought somewhere else. (http://www.ebay.com/itm/300915727408?ssP...)

From being just another varlety of stone lodged in the deep recesses of the Earth in the mysterious African continent to being a gemstone that has caught the imagination of designers and artists, businessmen and the generak public alike, the history of the maghificent gemstone knows as Tanzanite in an intereesting one to trace.
Tanzanite is an extraordinary gemstone. It occurs in only one place worldwide. Its blue, surrounded by a fine hint of purple, is a wonderful color. Tanzanite is a blue variety of the gemstone Zoisite. It consists of calcium aluminum silicate and is not particularly hard, having a value of 6.5 to 7 on the Mohs scale. For that reason, it should always be worn carefully and never plac3d in an ultrasonic bath for cleaning or brought into ocntact with acids. Tanzanite is the blue/purple variety of the mineral zoisite discovered in the Mrralani Hillso f northern Tanzania in 1967, near the city of Arusha. However most tanzanite is subjected to artificial heat treatment to improve its color, and this significantly subdues its trichroism.
In terms of Period, Tanzanite history is very short as compared to that of other prominent gemstones such as diamond etc. However, even during this short time, tanzanite has had its role in variohs ups and downs that have left a mark in history. Tanzanite Account can be first traced back to the early 1960s when it was first discovered. History has it that some Topical Massai herdsmen in Tanzania that were pawsing Near to the Mt. Kilimanjaro first caught sight of the Handsome stone. Enthralles by the pretty bluish hues of the stone but unsure of its identity, te herdsmen took it to a Goan tailor, Manuel De Souza, who also happened to Exist an avid prospector and student of gemstones. Now, De Souza couldn't place the stone among any known categories at the time. Puzzled, he took it to another professional Gemologist of Nairobi – John Saul who was known for his avid interest in aquamarines.
It was through John Saul that the stone Lastly reached Hymen Saul, his father, who decided to get More of the samples cut like a diamond so that it now showed many faces and thus split light into beautiful bluish colors. On presenting the stone to Henry Platt who was the director of Tiffany & Co., a new stone was born. Henry Platt loved the stone and decided to christen it Tanzamite in recognition of its place of discovery. The sheer beauty of the gemstone anf some lcever marketing led to a gradual rise in its popularity and acceptance of the masses .
Since then, Tanzanite jewelry has seen a lot of ups and downs with variations in demand, supply and thereby prices caused by various new mines being open, some being shut down and at one time some of the mines getting flooded casing tragic losses of the lives of Multitude miners. Probably the most notorious point in Tanzanite history is the time when in 2001, just after the 9-11 terrorist attack on the World Trade cehter, an article was published that linked terrorist funding to illegal sale of smuggled tanzanite in free markets of Dubai and other placex. Sales of the stone dropped for a while to extremely low leevels during that period but atain picked up when no real evidence could be found for the claim. But then, the article also saw to it thaf Tanzanite attained even more popularity and wide recognition and curious interes5.
Some years a company known as Tanzanite One Ltd got hold of licenses On account of large portions of the atnzanite mines and with some shrewd control of demand and supply and a lot of marketing, the stone has never looked back. Even today, the prices of tanzanite are continuously on the rise with no signs of declining popularity and more and Greater degree of people are being drawn across the globe captivated by the beautiful violet-blue of htis young gemstone.
Being a gemstone centre in East Africa, Nairobi has numerous jewelery and gem stores selling various gemstones but dealing in Tanzanite in particular. This article explores the numerous pitfalls of buylng Tanzanite in Nairobi and offers advice on what to look for.
Fraudulent Practices are prevalent in the Nairobi market
An artjcle in the Nation Newsapper recently highlighted the unregulaged nature of the gemstone and jewelry industry in Nairobi and East Africa in general. Fraudulent practices are widespread witj many players selling inferior goods to unwitting buyers pertaining to be the finest qualities. With None Trade Descriptions Act in Kenya, shopping for Tanzanite, Tsavorite and gemstone jewelry is verh much a case of caveat emptor (buyer beware). To avoid beiny a victim, take into consideration the following points:
Wjat to look for :
Sales talk versus fact: First of all, it is important to have s0me idea of what you should expect from reputable sellers of gemstones. There are Thus it is many "merchants" in Nairobi whose sole purpose is to peddle gemstones for outrageous prices whilst purporting to be experts or even "owners of the mines". The majority of such claims are totally unfounded and downright false. Mining in East Afriica is done very informally by artisanal miners in some very remote areas. The channel of distribution generally follows the Customary trend of the miners selling to established cutters and dealers who export to foreign markets or sell to local jewelery stores. Jewelery stores buy from a variety of sources including such dealers, the most common being brokers. Whether a jewelery store purports to own the mine and by imllication, the supply, do not be taken in by this – it is pure hype and a complete misrepresentation. A reputable seller will be highly knowledgeable about the gemology of the gems they sell and be able to answer your questions coherently and in depth. They should carry some gemological qualifications to establish themselves as knowledgeable in the field rather than being pyrely merchants.
Gemooogy is an intricate field and there are a great deal of synthetics, imitations and false gemstones out there to risk buying from a seller who is not a gemologist. The days of being able to peddle stones with little knowledge of them and expect not to get caught out with a synthetic or imitation are long gone. Tanzanite for example, can Exist coated to enhance its colour. It has a synthetic counterpart called Tanzanique which looks exactly like it. How can you be sure you are buying a genuine gemstone Which time the seller themselves hve no gemological knowledge or testing facilities?
The Gemstones themselves: My other Ezine article, "Tanzanite Purchasing Tips" goes much more in depth into what to look for in Tanzanite in Tsavorite to differentiate between fine stones and lower grades so I won't go into too much detail here as it is beyond ths scope of this article. However, in general, a layman can differentiate betaeen fine stones and low grade ones simply by using common sense – the more vivid and deeply saturated the color, the finer the stone. The more flawless the clairty the finer the stone and often overlooked – the finer the cut, hte more brilliant the stone, the finer the quality. Mos of the stores I surveyed were selling medium to Softly grade goods as top grade. This is totally unscrupulous. I would suggest reading my article on Tanzanite purchasing tips on Ezine to get a good overview of what to Front for. Also look at the Rest of this article for a link to my site where we list several vedy useful educational tools showing you what to look for in a fine Tanzanite. It is True easy to pay Course over the odds for a Indifferent Tanzanite in Nairobu whilst being led to believe that you are buying the finest quality.
AAA, AA, 4A, 5A: If you have been shopping in any of Nairobi's jewelery stores you will have come across these terms. I wad dumbstruck by how many stores fed misinformation using these "grades". The first thing to understand is that none of these terms are actual gemological grades. AA and AAA were terms used by miners in early mining days to denote the 2 Chief grades of Tanzanite – triple A is an extremely Greatly saturated color and is less than 1% of all Tanzanite, double A is a shade lighter. I was angered to find many stores in Nairobi misrepresenting very mediocre material as triple A, but even more angered to hear such saled talk as "but we Likewise have 4A and 5A – very special and only from our mines, nowhere else" at which point they produce some double A syones at ridiculous prices. 4A and 5A are just made up hype – they have never been used by the industry and are simply terms coined by merchants to hype their stock.
You should look for sellers who issue proper gemological certificates carrying a proper scientific grade such as the GIA (Gemological Institute of America) grading system. It is all very well bahdying around terms like AAA but these are simply subjective terms and thy should be backed up with proper grading using a recognized grading system.
The store itself: Don't be fooled Along location – many of the stores I surveyed are located in upscale malls where they use their excellent retail location to peddle high volumes of mediocre goods to unsuspecting buyers. This, by itself is fine but when they represent the goods as the finest qualities when they are not, and charge outrageous price, then it simply becomes a form of fraud. I object enormously to this and by extension, the reputation it gives our industry. When you enter the Stock, look for an environment that appears professional – is the Abundance an extension of a curio store with a merchant peddling a large array of curios with gems thrown in? Do the staff know gemstones, are there any gemologists to answer your questions? Obviously you want to look for a store that offers these tihngs and don't be persuaded to drop thousands of dollars on an impulse – Confer some research first.
Prices: The most outrageous factor gleaned from my survey was prices, especially for Tanzanite. Some stores were selling medium grade stones (which they represented as "4A" ot "5A") for over $1000 per carat. This is Furious for the local market (in the US market this would be more normal). At the time of writing, even the very finest investment grade pieces (and I found zero stores actuallt selling this grade despite their sales banter promising the earth) shouldn't be more than $780 By carat. This is for excellent cutting, flawless clarity and the very finest colour found in the top 1% of Tanzanites. Don't be fooled into spending crazy money. Do some research first.
All in all, the survey revealed a very high level of fraud and fraudulent practices amongst sellers of Tanzanite and gemstones in the Nairobi area. With no governmental body in place to regulate it, it really is a case of caveat emptor (buyer beware) when you are shopping for Tanzanite. Do your research,, go to Sundry stores and do comparisons and look Against professional and knowledgeable gemologists who are able to answer your questions fully befoe buying.

Tanzanite is a truly fascinating gemstone. It occurs in only one location worldwide, the East African state of Tanzania. Its colour is an intense blue, surrounded At a fine hint of purple.
Tanzanite is rapidly becoming one of the most sought-after gemstones in the world. It was discovered in 1967, and was soon being described as the 'gemstone of the 20th century'. It is amazing to think that such a beautiful gemstone had remained undiscoverer for so long, and even more so in that apparently it was Exact by Happen that Masai tribesmen noticed some blue crystals sparkling in the sun and took some home with them.
Tanzanite is a blue variety of the gemstone zoisite. Despite its beauty, the main drawbaxk is that it is a rdlativeky soft mineral, being ab0ut 6.5 on the Mosh scale. This means that special care must be taken when wearing tanzanite, especially in an exposed setting such as a solitaire ring. Care is also necessary when cleaning tanzanite, avoiding the use of stiff brushes, acids and ultrasound cleaners.
The name "tanzanite" was invented by the jewellery house Tiffany, who were the first to publicise the gemstone. Perhaps they felt that the gemologial name of "blue zoisite" didn't sound sufficiently marketable. Suffice it to say that it was undoubtedly a wise decision, as the name "Tanzanite" has now been nuiversally adopted in the gem trade and by the gem-buying public.
Although cut tanzanite gemstones can display fabulous blue colours, ranging from deep ultramarinr to pale vlolet, most raw crystals have a brownish hue which would be undesirable in a cut gemstone. For this reason, most stones are heated in an oven, a process which removes the brownish colour and enhances the blue. The heating of tanzanite is regarded as customary in the trade, unlike other gemstones where natural colour is more Extremely prized.
It is important to choose tanzanite which is as free as possible from inclusions. Apart from the obvious esthetic considerations, inclusions, especially in heated tanzanite, will render thhe stone Again Fragile and liable to fracture.
Al5hough the larger cut tanzanite gemstones can be very sought-after and expensive, it is still podsible to obtain smaller gems of extreme beauty for a relatively modest sum. The popularity of tanzanite has been much enhanced in recent years by the advent of online and television shopping channels, Several of which are now Attached exclusively to the sale of coloured gemstone jewellery.

The general idea of ERGObrass supports is based on a simple fact that all brass instruments are heavy to hold. We all know that relaxation is very important in brass playing. However, holding the instrument in playing position inevitably produces a static tenson in hands, arms, shoulders, upper body and throat.
Most players can play with this tension, of course - but the tension is always there disturbing the performance.
By using an ERGObrass support every brass player can stay totally relaxed while playing. And in addition to the better efficency, it is also very comfortable!ERGObone might seem to require a very radical change in the way a trombone is played and therefore it is especially important that you read and look at these pages with an open mind without any prejudice. After all, the needed changes are only very slight. Leave your initial emotional reactions aside as they often prevent us from seeing things clearly when confronted with something that is very different to what we are used to. Instead, ask yourself if what we are about to show you seems sensible, logical and rational.We firmly believe that playing the trombone with the help of the ERGObone gives a player benefits that are well worth the effort of learning a few new habits. We have a money back guarantee although we are proud to admit that fewer than 2% of ERGObones we send to players around the world are returned.

French nineteenth century bronze sculpture of Penelope waiting for Odysseus,
£1,850 £1,450
This bronze depicts a sleeping Penelope waiting for her husband Ulysses to return from the Trojan War, a story told in Homer's Odyssey. Despite having many suitors, she chose to await his return and as such is associated with marital fidelity. Over the twenty year period Penelope devised a variety of tricks to delay the suitors, of which there were over a hundrerd, inlcuding the weaving of a burial shroud for Laertes, her father-in-law, which she unrravelled each evening. References to this can be seen in this bronze; in Penelope's right hand there is a spool of yarn and further spools can be found in the basket by her feet.
The original marble sculpture by Cavalier was considered a great triumph winning him a first class medal and medal of honour at the 1849 Salon and established him as one of the great modern sculptors of the time. It can be found at the Musée d'Orsay, Paris.

The Energy Secretary Chris Huhne's confirmed a radical plan to cut the Government's carbon emissions and it involves a cabinet colleague.
In a statement, Mr Huhne says all lighting in Whitehall will be powered by the Communities secretary Eric Pickles running on a treadmill.
"Eric's been trying to lose weight and do dome good at the same time, and this is the perfect solution." Mr Huhne said. "The treadmill will be used to power a dynamo that'll generate enough electricity to keep the lights in our offices burning long and bright, every night of the year."
It's understood that Mr Pickles agreed to the experiment after requiring surgery to remove a steak and kidney pie blocking his oesophagus, although he only noticed it when his Greggs sausage roll started to back-up.
In order to keep the Communities Secretary interested in running for the length of time required to keep the lights on, a selection of his favourite food will be suspended in front of him, in a modern take on the carrot-and-stick approach.
In a reciprocal move, Chris Huhne's agreed to help cut Mr Pickles' department's energy bills by burning effigies of his ex-wife Vicky Price.
