Last month, news on multi-level marketing firm Lien Ket Viet, which was prosecuted for fraudulent appropriation of assets in an apparent pyramid scheme, overwhelmed newspapers and social networks.
The company was discovered swindling more than 45,000 people in more than 27 cities and provinces nationwide and appropriating a total of VND1.9 trillion (roughly US$85 million) since 2014.
People were shocked. Many victims cried, and some even fainted upon learning that the money they had saved all their lives had disappeared in a short moment.
Hundreds of people said they paid deposits to join the Lien Ket Viet multi-level trading system, but never received any commission as promised.
First, one should not blame MLN firms alone for cheating clients and investors. One should also carefully consider what made thousands of people, just over the last few years, empty their pockets to feed fraudulent MLN companies like Lien Ket Viet.
The companies promised clients an unbelievably high profit. Commitments related to commission and profits were only conveyed orally. Contracts, receipts and documents were lacking, but clients and investors turned a blind eye to the signs.
Who should they blame for being cheated? Should they blame themselves for their greediness and naivety?
The MLM structure operates on the principle of enrolling members for a commission-based payment scheme. People are persuaded to subscribe, via fees or purchase, on the promise that an initial investment will yield a high return.
Salespeople not only sell their products, but also encourage others to join the companies as distributors. A person will receive commission not only for the sales they secure, but also for the sales of other distributors they recruit.
Most commonly, the salespeople are expected to sell products directly to consumers by means of referrals and word-of-mouth marketing.
A large number of Vietnamese people from all walks of life have been attracted by the high-earning potential of MLM firms, only to end up losing sleep over possible financial losses once the fraudulent nature of such companies is uncovered.
Like other MLM companies, Lien Ket Viet showed the clients a super-profit business model and attracted thousands of people to join the network.
In the first months of joining, the investors were paid commission on schedule. In fact, the companies' owners used the clients' deposits to pay their clients' commission.
Lien Ket Viet Company is one of a dozen cases of MLM firms trapping greedy but nave people.
A few years ago, a project disguised as a charity named Trai Tim Viet Nam caused a storm on social network when it deceived more than 40,000 farmers.
This is an "expensive" lesson to those who want to be billionaires overnight.
Therefore, investors should be more clever and vigilant when it comes to groundless super-profit schemes that only leave them empty-handed.
Blaming greedy and nave people is easy. But it raises the question: Why are so many fraudulent MLM companies caught only after cheating thousands of people and operating for a long period of time, sometimes years? What are the responsibilities of State management authorities?
It is impossible that a company with hundreds of branches joined by thousands of investors and mobilising thousands of billions of dong could go unnoticed by management agencies for long.
In fact, a newly-opened small shop in a narrow lane of the city has to host some inspection teams during the first month of operations. So, why do management agencies fail to notice a big company like Lien Ket Viet?
Phan Duc Que, an official from the Competition Management Department of the Ministry of Industry and Commerce, said MLM is word-of-mouth marketing, so it is difficult to monitor.
Everyone wants to get rich quick, so they voluntarily lure others to join. So they are both victims and accomplices, he said.
Furthermore, regulations on operating MLM firms have been vague, and the punishment for violations is light when considering the money the firms earned.
After more than 14 years in Viet Nam, the MLM business has been illegally modified. The companies' tricks are becoming more and more artful and cunning.
Lien Ket Viet is just one case that was exposed. There are many fraudulent firms operating as MLM businesses that exist, and they are expanding their cheating operations to every corner of the country. — VNS

Copyright for lecturers
Being fair to the copyright holder
For your copying to be judged as fair it should not harm the copyright holder, financially or otherwise
Think! Would you object to your use of the work if you were the copyright holder?
Where possible, lecturers should provide links to online resources rather than making copies. Where it is essential to make a copy, or a work is only available in print, follow the guidance below.
This guidance covers normal teaching situations: teaching in the classroom, preparing slides and making slides or lecture recordings available on a VLE.
If you want to make your teaching materials or lecture recordings openly available on the internet then seek permission to reuse any copyrighted materials. College licences only cover use by Imperial staff and students.
Material type
Short extracts – all material types
UK Copyright Law contains an exception 'Illustration for instruction'. This enables you to use small amounts of copyrighted materials in your slides and other teaching materials without requesting permission from the copyright holder.
To be able to defend your use of copyrighted materials as illustration for instruction your copying must be:
- for instruction or preparing instruction
- fair to the copyright holder
- non-commercial (e.g. teaching Imperial students)
- the extract must be fully cited and referenced
A publisher's contract cannot override this exception.
Journal papers and single book chapters
The College has a Copyright Licensing Agency Higher Education Licence. This enables:
- lecturers and course administrators to provide each student with a single printed copy of a journal article or a book chapter, if it is part of the Library's collection
- Library Services to make a digital copy of a journal article or a book chapter, that is part of the Library's collection, available to students on your VLE
The licence does not include permission to make copies available on the internet.
To check if a book or journal title is covered by the licence use the CLA's Check permissions tool.
Please link to e-books and e-journals provided by Library Services and only ask to digitise print materials or materials the Library does not stock.
Web based materials
While copyright applies to materials on the internet, College licences do not. This means that if you select teaching materials from the internet instead of the Library's collection, you can only use them as dictated by UK Copyright Law and the licence displayed on the website. Website licences are often called Terms of use, are legally binding and can usually be found in the website's footer.
Films, videos and TV
There is a legal exception that allows you to show students films, videos and TV broadcasts during your lectures. This exception is classroom specific and does not extend to making them available to students on your VLE, the internet or showing films for entertainment.
If you are recording your lecture and wish to make audiovisual material available on your VLE, restrict the recording to short clips that illustrate your teaching point. Do not copy the whole film, video or broadcast.
You may embed TV clips from Box of Broadcasts and videos from YouTube but only embed videos where you are certain the content has been posted with the consent of the performer and copyright holders.
Photos and images
You can show images during a lecture, however for slides and other teaching materials you should only use images that are:
- yours
- licensed for education use
- licensed with a Creative Commons Licence
- with written permission from the copyright holder
You can ASK the Library to check for permission to reuse images from books and journals in our collections.
College licences do not include permission to make images available on the internet.
See Intellectual Property Office Copyright Notice: digital images, photographs and the internet for detailed guidance.
Easy to reuse images
Easy to reuse images
If you do a Google search you will retrieve a large number of images with a wide range of licences. At a glance, it will be hard to know which images are safe to reuse and which are not. Individually checking the reuse terms of each image can be time-consuming.
Often it is better to start your search within image collections that you know are licensed for easy reuse, for example, those that license images with Creative Commons Licences or permit educational reuse of their content. Below are some suggestions but it is a good idea to building up your own list of favourite image sites for use in lecturers and conference presentations.
Remember to acknowledge an image's creator. See How do I acknowledge images?

ASK the Library or the Central Secretariat if you have questions about this licence.
You may scan a small section of a printed map (A4 or less) and use it in your teaching materials.
For online maps please refer to the licence and/or terms of use and display any copyright notices requested by the supplier.
You can perform a musical track during your lecture but you should not make it available on your VLE, unless it is being used to illustrate a teaching point. If you are recording your lecture, pause the recording while the music is being played or edit the recording before making it available to students,
Where students need to listen to whole tracks, in their own time, direct them to a library copy they can borrow, or to a website where they can legally listen to it or download a copy.

RUTGERS 71, DePAUL 62
Rutgers trailed by 11 at the half — the same margin DePaul led them by in Chicago — but rallied to complete the sweep of the home-and-home.
Hamady N'Diaye blocked five shots to bring him within nine of Roy Hinson's career record and 11 of Hinson's single-season record. He has at least three games left.
DePaul's Will Walker suffered one of his worst games, scoring just eight points on 3-of-14 shooting and committing five turnovers.
Junior commit Andrew "Red" Nicholas broke his school's career scoring record last night — he had 34 points (9-14 from field; 13-14 from line). He now has 1,681 points in his career.
On what was said at halftime: "I told them to make up their minds on whether they wanted to let this team here come in and take this away from them."
"We didn't have the fire and energy we always want. We didn't rebound. We didn't do anything that we were working on for the last two days. At halftime it wasn't very emotional. There wasn't yelling and screaming. I just challenged them to make up their minds. Do you want to play or not?"
"DePaul's going to win a game, whether they get somebody in the last two or somebody in the Big East Tournament. Those two kids (Mac Koshwal and Will Walker) are good. We did an awesome job on Will Walker. He can really score. That was an outstanding job in our zone of identifying where he is and not letting him get off any stand-still threes."
"We're giving them (the players) two days off. Guys are playing a lot of minutes. We'll come back Tuesday, go fairly hard. Wednesday we'll go very hard for a short period of time."
On why they started slow: "There wasn't that much communication. Guys weren't talking and guys weren't in the right spots."
"We did a great job in our press in the second half because we built up the momentum and we got them playing fast. It was creating turnovers and runouts for us. That really helped me get my shot going."

Readers' Favorite announces the review of the Non-Fiction – Religion/Philosophy book "Coffee Shop University" by Mario Kfoury, currently available at http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0995567905.
Readers' Favorite is one of the largest book review and award contest sites on the Internet. They have earned the respect of renowned publishers like Random House, Simon & Schuster, and Harper Collins, and have received the "Best Websites for Authors" and "Honoring Excellence" awards from the Association of Independent Authors. They are also fully accredited by the BBB (A+ rating), which is a rarity among Book Review and Book Award Contest companies.
Reviewed By Romuald Dzemo for Readers' Favorite
Coffee Shop University: A Book about Mythology, Spirituality, Philosophy, Psychology, Religion, Politics, Economics and the Ecology… by Mario Kfoury is a nonfiction read that deals with powerful existential, religious, philosophical and realistic themes. The book reads like the author's mental journey; its confrontation with the harsh realities of life, a departure from mainstream contemporary culture to adopt a solution-oriented mindset. In this book, the author shares personal experiences and combines Western thought with Eastern philosophy and spirituality to compel readers to look reality in the face, opening their eyes to dread truths about human nature, and offering reflections on topics such as existence, change, conflict, truth, well-being, purpose, and many things in between.
This is a book that will appeal to philosophers, theologians, moralists, and sociologists, a multidisciplinary book that is intelligently written, thought-provoking and laced with deep insights. Every page is filled with astounding wisdom. The author interacts with life and with philosophers from the beginning of the history of human thought, featuring Socrates, Plato and many others. Mario Kfoury makes relevant references to great thinkers like the Tao, Albert Einstein, Dharma, and many others.
I was particularly excited by the depth of thought and the clarity of expression. For instance, about war, for instance, he states: "Any fight, no matter the form or style, is a balance of stamina, distance and timing." A bit further down he observes that war is nothing other than an individual fight on a collective scale and it never reaches a final verdict nor a perfect settlement. I learned that the greatest victory is one that requires no battle. Coffee Shop University: A Book about Mythology, Spirituality, Philosophy, Psychology, Religion, Politics, Economics and the Ecology… is a book for readers who want to take life seriously and who love to indulge in mental labor. The writing is excellent and accessible and the ideas are expressed with vivid clarity and simplicity of phrase."

In tribute to the latest series of Mad Men, Livingetc rounds up the best modern cocktail cabinets and drinks trollies. Hic!
The Mid-century Modern fans among us are very excited about the prospect of Mad Men returning to our screens for its final stretch. While the world of the new series has moved into the early 70s, taking the décor and fashions to new realms of brashy and splashy, one thing will (hopefully) remain constant. Don, Roger, Joan and the gang will still love a drink. "Not till the sun goes over the yard arm" is an expression that doesn't register with them, but we'll forgive the boozing as they do it so stylishly.
All those bottles, tumblers, shakers and ice buckets have to live somewhere, though, and we've spotted a real trend for smart sideboards, cool cabinets and trendy trolleys. Seriously. The Milan Furniture Fair last year was awash with enough high-end drinks trolleys to set Mrs Overall's knees atrembling. And the high street wasn't far behind. So, in homage to a fine series and in honour of a new trend, raise a glass to our round up of the most stylish ways to stash your booze.
The Inside Out cocktail cabinet by Joined and Jointed riffs on the notion of surface decoration by offering a clue on the outside to what's kept on the inside. The elegant and chic way to be shaken but not stirred.
Handmade from solid American Walnut or Black Oak, The Rockstar by Buster and Punch is a real showstopper.
This console table has been cleverly configured with nifty bottle storage. Very clever. And the Perspex and mirror is very 1970s.
This salvage industrial unit proves cocktail cabinets don't have to be slick, streamlined and mid-century in mood.
For a more ethnic vibe a reconditioned lacquered-wood Chinese dresser from Rouge doubles up as handy drinks storage.
Nothing blings things up and sets a party mood quite like metallics and this high street trolley from Oliver Bonas will serve you well, from elegant soiree to ambassador's reception.
A contemporary sideboard with mirror-backed doors provides perfect storage for all your cocktail accessories, yet looks elegant and refined even when the bar's closed.
Add some Art Deco glamour with a 1930s tea trolley, repurposed as a handy vehicle for all your mixers.
The Brandy by Studio Kronos for Catellan Italia, works Caneletto walnut and lacquered steel into a marvellously modern update on a classic piece.

text: When action movies make it a few too many titles into a franchise, things tend to get a little ridiculous. Rambo may have been a flawed and damaged Vietnam veteran in First Blood, but by Rambo III he was taking out entire armies single handedly. The Terminator might have initially been a frightening character, but by Rise Of The Machines Arnie was putting on Elton John sunglasses and saying "talk to the hand." It's kind of inevitable. Even the best action movies tend to have very simple central concepts that don't allow for much experimentation and expansion. Case in point is Fast Five. The Fast And The Furious franchise started out loosely based on an article about underground street racing and now in the fifth entry has become a down market version of Ocean's Eleven with more slow motion cleavage shots. Street racing barely even appears in the movie. There are a couple of scenes set at street races, but we don't actually see the races.

As a kid I loved playing Graphic Adventures, especially those by LucasArts. Day of the Tentacle (or DOTT for short) was the sequel to Maniac Mansion and was the first "Talkie" game I played (this was the first game to have speech throughout which seems like a bizarre thing to mention in todays world, but back then it was a big deal!)
For those that don't know, the main characters in DOTT, Bernard, Hoagie and Laverne used the Chron-o-John to travel through time to prevent the evil Purple Tentacle from manipulating time to control the world! As you can probably guess, it was a very surreal and funny game!
This one was just begging to be animated! The image was featured on Kotaku, Little Chimp Society and the creator of Day Of The Tentacle, Tim Schafer liked it, and remarked "Nice! Probably more things moving there than in the actual game! :)"
As Bernard would say: "Neat!"
Have fun,

PCL won the award for transforming how
technology is used in the construction industry. By eliminating an entire
on-site data center and migrating it to the cloud, the team focused on
delivering mobile solutions that allow data-driven decisions to be made about a
construction project's schedule, quality, safety, and financial performance.
"As we continue to push the limits of
technology in our industry, our sight is set on adopting a digital-first
mindset focused on field solutions," said Mark Bryant, chief information
officer, PCL Construction. "We are transforming our business by enhancing our
time to market, reducing costs, improving safety, and driving Lean construction
practices for greater productivity."
Driving operational excellence is critical not
only for PCL, but for our customers. Field technology has enabled better
collaboration between project teams and clients by providing data-driven
insights into how a project is progressing.
"Getting information to the on-site teams who
are delivering the work is imperative," said Chris Gower, COO, Buildings, PCL
Construction. "Having mobile technology in the hands of our superintendents,
project managers, field engineers, and field coordinators allows them to have instant
access to information to properly construct the project, which avoids delays
and ultimately delivers better value to our customers."

Previously, NuWire analyzed the Top 5 Business Trends that may positively impact some businesses' potential for profit. Other businesses, however, will struggle to adapt to the trends that are driving a larger economic transition; typically, these are businesses that are adversely affected by factors such as the predominance of the Internet, the weakening of the U.S. dollar or the poor state of the housing market.
NuWire identified and explored five business industries that appear to be on the decline. Entrepreneurs should consider the downward trends inherent in these industries and perhaps choose to invest their time and money in more promising endeavors.
Print media
Paper is quickly going out of fashion. It's expensive and it kills trees—two big taboos for the modern consumer. Furthermore, the Internet, a faster and more convenient platform, is quickly becoming the preferred method for gathering information that would traditionally be captured in print media. Only one in fifty Americans got the news regularly from the internet in 1996; a decade later, nearly one in three Americans regularly received news online, according to the Pew Research Center.

Shane Black's 'Predator' Sequel: Will Arnold Schwarzenegger Return?
Posted on Tuesday, March 8th, 2016 by Jack Giroux
We're less than two years away from Shane Black's The Predator. The writer and director of The Nice Guys co-starred in the original John McTiernan film, partially because McTiernan and producer Joel Silver wanted a writer on the set. Now, Black is making his own Predator picture, titled The Predator, which Arnold Schwarzenegger could possibly appear in.
Read Schwarzenegger's comments below.
Schwarzenegger has attempted to relaunch some of his most iconic franchises over the past few years. Terminator Genisys failed to revive the series, while The Legend of Conan has been slowly working its way to the big screen. We're still waiting to see if The Legend of Conan happens, but, before that sequel, maybe we'll see Schwarzenegger return to another iconic role of his.
Black and Schwarzenegger last worked together on The Last Action Hero. As for whether they'll collaborate on The Predator, the actor told The Arnold Fans that he's meeting with Black soon to discuss the project:
I haven't talked with [Shane Black] yet but I'm going to meet with him for lunch sometime soon. Just as soon as I'm finished with [Arnold's Sports Festival] and 'The Apprentice' and all this stuff. But I will get together with him. If there is any news, we'll of course let you know right away. There's also a meeting coming up soon about 'Conan,' about the project moving forward.
Major Alan Schaefer was the sole survivor of the first Predator. Black has stated before his film isn't a reboot but a genuine sequel, so maybe there's room for Schwarzenegger:
Black tells us that he and [co-writer Fred Dekker] see the project as definitely not a reboot, "As far as Fred and I are concerned anyway," Black said, adding "Why start over, when you've all this rich mythology yet to mine?" Black said he doesn't like reboots generally, but can "really get behind inventive sequels", noting that he likes "the idea of expanding and exploring the existing Predator mythology, rather than hitting the restart button."
And Dutch is a part of the Predator mythology. Obviously others have survived encounters with the vicious aliens, but forgetting about the sequel and the Alien vs. Predator films, Arnold played the only surviving character fans actually care about. Schwarzenegger returning for a Predator sequel co-written and directed by Shane Black is promising, even if it'd be nothing more than a substantial cameo.
This meeting could lead to nothing, but then again, maybe Dutch actually has a real role in The Predator. Since this isn't a reboot, Black and co-writer Fred Dekker could naturally bring the character back.
The Predator opens in theaters March 1st, 2018.

Palma Aquarium has signed an agreement with Baleària for the shipping company to transport wounded and sick sea turtles so they can be treated at the recovery center.
The recovery center of Palma Aquarium will receive the sea turtles from Menorca and Ibiza to Mallorca. This will happen after the agreement is signed by the aquarium with the shipping company Baleària. In this way the company will facilitate its transfer to the marine park.
Once the turtles are recovered, Baleària will collaborate in their transfer of the animals to be released in waters of the Balearic Sea.
"The sea is the medium where we carry out our activity, and the preservation of the marine environment, and therefore of the animals that inhabit it, is one of our main concerns," the general manager of Palma Aquarium says.
The owners of Palma Aquarium feel very satisfied about the new starting project.

2015 comes to a close and it is the first day to 2016. A new year always brings excitement and fear all at once.
I'm excited because a new year makes you think of new beginnings and letting go of the past. We start setting goals about getting stronger and eating healthier, and we all feel like we can get a jump start on the new year.
One thing is that only about 8% of people are successful in achieving their New Year's Resolution. I feel that one of the reasons is that people who look to goal setting are really setting long term tasks to finish other than actually setting long term goals. What's the difference between a long term task and a long term goal?
A long term task is something that you can give a breath of relief when it's done. An example is paying off your credit card debt. Tasks are not motivating to your soul, and you don't find any joy in the journey. You will ultimately find relief from completing the project.
A long term goal on another hand is something that you will always strive to achieve, and in the process it will give you joy while on the road to attaining it. For instance, instead of paying off your debt, the ultimate goal is to be financially free, or not having to worry about money in retirement. Goals are activities where it causes you to continually grow.
Margee Kerr Ph.D. wrote an article on Psychology today on "Forget New Year's Resolutions" says that saying that you might want to focus on why you were awesome and what you feared in 2015 to jump start 2015.
Here is a list of questions from her article. I challenge you to be awesome this year.

Fast Times at Eighth Avenue High:
"High school is an apt metaphor for the shenanigans inside the Times' $850 million skyscraper at the corner of Fortieth Street and Eighth Avenue. The Times portrayed in Kurson's article is not the established, serious, and competent institution of the liberal imagination. It is the Beverly Hills High School in Clueless, a cliquey and catty war of all against all, where the self-importance of the occupants masks deep insecurities. The next time our reporters and producers and anchors and bloggers affect an air of moral or social superiority, the next time they pretend to know the answers to every political and economic and cultural question, remember this: They are basically teenagers."
Most of us got away from needing the approval of the Cool Kids back in high school.

Great list! I wonder if a separate movies list might be helpful, too. I remember being stumped by HTTYD (How to Train Your Dragon.) That could get endless, though.
I had put that in... the reason is because I was scanning through threads for abbreviations and it's amazing how many times it comes up. I should include it just for that... but also HZ, JW, MG, etc? Sorry what did you say, I was humming.I remember being stumped by HTTYD
Do you mean NISESE? (Native Instruments Symphony Essentials String Ensemble)? NISEBE, etc? These are getting a bit unwieldy...NISSSE, NISSBE, NISSBS, NISSWE, NISSWS, and NISSP should be added too...
NISSSE - NI Symphony Series String EnsembleDo you mean NISESE? (Native Instruments Symphony Essentials String Ensemble)? NISEBE, etc? These are getting a bit unwieldy...
NISSP = Native Instruments Session Strings Pro?

I didn't even know you could actually purge layers of the crap in the Western Consciousness out of an individual body. It was all fear. Fear manifested in the form of feeling abandoned, or rejected, or separated in any form. Which causes the ego to build defenses to protect, since there is a perceived void in the foundational structure.

Buy CBD Oil Are Good Or Scam?
Are you currently really experiencing melancholy? If this really is the situation, you aren't individually and therefore are simply 1 of the numerous Americans impacted via this disposition disease. A newest post shared fresh statistical particulars of how melancholy within the U.S. would be to the upswing. Seemingly the identification of melancholy elevated 33 percent between decades 2011 and 2014. Formerly, The National Center for Well being Statistics noted the anti-depressant usage jumped 65 % in 1-5 years in between 1999 and 2014: by 7.7percent of people in America around 12.7percent to people 12 and elderly, double as higher for girls than males, and 19.1percent to individuals sixty and elderly. (Two) The fantastic news they state, is the fact that "common melancholy screenings" are far more frequently, this mood illness is not at the cupboard: individuals are talking about treating and it... with pharmaceutical medication. I'm produced to take a position why this manic nation has increased by bounds and leaps? To begin with, there's a complete lot that's moved in the globe as January 1), 2000. It really is sufficient to generate anyone sad. Though the majority of the antidepressant-package inserts frighten of a person or even another consequences, pharmaceutical anti-depressants will be the omnipresent 'proceed to" option and operating mechanism for melancholy. In addition, apart from the side effects, lots of males and ladies statement problem in taking away anti-depressants as soon as they really are prepared to achieve that. Depression had been connected to higher neuron-inflammation. It is typical knowledge today which discomfort can be truly a precursor to a lot of unique illness procedures.
Input therapeutic Cannabidiol.
Cannabidiol is well known to decrease irritation additionally retains wonderful promise within scientific research concerning despair. (three) Because of its compound compounds, notably THC and CBD, bodily therapeutic, maybe not merely symptom concealing, might occur to revive lacking regions of the immune and immunity apparatus. (four) Its nontoxic, affordable and demands minor to no unwanted side effects whatsoever. "... The crew examined information from Strain print, a cell app Cannabidiol finish users could utilize to watch modifications in outward symptoms later getting various dosages along with Cannabidiol chemo-types. Generally, self-reported indicators of melancholy lessened by fifty per cent " (five)) Therefore why don't you more people determine to try Cannabidiol medicinally ahead of heading right down towards the pharm route? I propose that there are 3 Significant motives:
The residual stigma encouraged in the Reefer Madness motion picture propaganda of 1936 and following 1937 Marihuana Tax Act The taste for anticipates well being professionals and precisely the things they urge an general lack of awareness regarding healing, maybe not amateur, Cannabidiol usage an affiliate of mine employed Cannabidiol medicinally to assist her cure despair after nearly absolutely nothing else worked. She mentioned that it gave her back her personal life, which motivated her to express her encounter along with other people. So far like I could clarify towards the numerous catastrophic events with the 21stcentury have significantly altered the globe from simply because we all knew it confusing within the most useful and gloomy at worst for anyone that comprehend the space.
Nevertheless I really feel it's still completely possible to select journey from despair and also remain mentally and emotionally nicely by way of it with all the help of accountable and curative Cannabidiol usage. Click here www.balancecbd.com to understand much more about Best CBD Products.

Air ambulance lottery proving a huge success
The Flight for Life Lottery which raised funds for an air ambulance service is seeing great success with more members than at any other time in its history, dating back to 1998. There are 50,000 numbers in with a chance to win the prize which, of course, helps in saving lives.
The draw occurred at the head office of the charity on the 18th of January.
Past Lottery winners were invited for tea on the 13th of March at Great Hallingbury Manor. The air ambulance also attended, allowing guests to meet them and see the vehicle first-hand.
Three members of Flight for Life won the Superdraw jackpot in February, clearly a month which saw its share of luck. St. Albans' Mike Burgess was the first to win, claiming just over £8,000 on the first day of the month. He became a member of the lottery in June of last year after being visited by a canvasser for the air ambulance.
Mike didn't expect to win and so doesn't have any real plans on how to spend his winnings:
"Television has shown the work of the Air Ambulance in remote and mountainous areas, but the miles of very busy motorways and main roads in Hertfordshire also create the risk of serious incidents and the need for the Air Ambulance to speed up the treatment of casualties and their journey to hospital. I might look for a more ambitious holiday this year, but the cost of providing the Air Ambulance is so high that I think some of the win will have to go back as future support."

Annette Greenwood is a straight-talking down to earth woman with a warm-spirited often wicked sense of humor.
Success came to her in the strangest of ways…..
Annette suffered from severe depression and anxiety. Having found conventional treatments unhelpful she then found Adaptation Practice (AP) a radically different approach.
AP is based on authentic Zen Buddhist practice and involves daily meditation. It not only helped Annette overcome depression and anxiety but changed her life completely. Rather than remain a victim of circumstances, AP led Annette to her calling: to help others cope with life's difficulties and challenges the same way she had been helped.
It is through finding her deeply intuitive and spiritual side that Annette became a Life Coach. Her unique specialism of coaching in a women's prison gave Annette great insight into the minds and life 'inside' for prostitutes, the fraudster's even murderers. Sharing their innermost secrets it was here the seeds of her first novel 'Imprisoned Heart' were born, now available on Amazon.
As well as a passion for writing Annette is highly skilled and offer personal coaching, predominantly working with women. With over a decade's experience, she works globally, empowering women on how to recover from life's personal heartaches and professional setbacks.
Annette's website describes her journey into coaching as well as informative, inspiring blogs. Her Facebook page shares tips and interactive videos on a variety of topics.
Annette lives a simple lifestyle in her rural countryside home. Some of her favorite hobbies include Tai Chi, Nordic walking and trying new recipes. With an open heart, she puts her wisdom down to AP which involves daily meditation, overcoming adversities, having a loving husband, family, and friends plus a huge dose of laughter.
She hopes that Imprisoned Heart touches the lives and hearts of women, as a gift, in the same way, it did for her as the author.

Revealed at an industry event last week, Grand Pacific Group has unveiled a series of unique event concepts for each of its four venues, The Tea Room QVB, The Tea Room Gunners' Barracks, Sergeants' Mess and Dunbar House.
Collaborating with renowned creative director and event planner Alex Zabotto-Bentley and his team at AZB Creative, Grand Pacific Group served up a series of event ideas for each of its landmark venues.
Piano Noir at The Tea Room QVB
The Tea Room QVB will be transformed into an old Manhattan style piano bar with a noir twist where guests can revel in the glamorous cocktail experience which can be completed by a jazz singer crooning classic tunes or a piano man delivering all the Christmas classics in style. Cut crystal glasses with bitter chocolate and espresso martinis will be served on silver platters by waiters in black tie and a resplendent Christmas tree will be the centrepiece for gift giving and sharing.
A Mediterranean Marvel at The Tea Room Gunners' Barracks
The historical Tea Room Gunners' Barracks will be transformed into a setting comparable to an eatery adorning the Amalfi Coast. Complemented by breathtaking water views, the menu will accommodate authentic Mediterranean share plates with tender roast meats, blue linen table cloths and homemade limoncello, representing a story of true summer indulgence.
1920's chic at Dunbar House
Located in Watsons Bay and presenting the glamour of the 1920's, Dunbar House is a water-front venue where you'll be treated to a chic event experience, reminiscent of the Great Gatsby's infamous garden parties. Choose from a banquet style lunch or twilight cocktail experience and think of the Hamptons in summer where ladies carry parasols and sip champagne. Guests can gather on the lawn to enjoy a spot of croquet and fresh, modern cocktails, while the Dunbar House chefs showcase their signature seafood dishes.
A decadent degustation at Sergeants' Mess
Poised as a setting for team building, you can unveil new concepts in a staggered fashion across the day as you experience a series of dishes from the chefs at Sergeants' Mess. The group is encouraged to scribble, write and draw their ideas on the tablecloth as the chef brings out a menu of inspiring delicacies.
