#1954: Marine Links Serco's Crony Bailout Bank to WTC7 Crossed Keys Pass Through Fraud
Plum City – (AbelDanger.net). United States Marine Field McConnell has linked Serco director Maureen Baginski's Bank of America cronies who bailed out Serco in its cash flow crisis to the Crossed Keys demolition of WTC#7 and an associated pass-through insurance fraud.
McConnell alleges that Serco – fined in U.K. for fraudulently tagging Crossed Keys prisoners – set up the simulation-tracking facility in the EEOC office on the 18th Floor of WTC#7 which allegedly allowed Serco clients to track and simulate the explosives, whether transported by plane or by elevator, needed to "pull" the building and trigger phony claims on Bank of America pass-through certificates in a massive money-doubling insurance fraud on Lloyd's Names.
McConnell claims Serco mustered the Crossed Keys demolition crew on the 18th Floor of WTC7 in a seditious conspiracy with the late Leonora Guarraia, the former COO of the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, and Guarria's lesbian lover and McConnell's sister, Kristine Marcy, former COO of the U.S. Small Business Administration and provider of the loan guarantees used by Serco protégés to finance the Crossed Keys attacks of 9/11.

"Serco 'lost traction', admits new boss Rupert Soames
Chief executive encouraged by investor support for £160m fundraising on his first day as he outlines his review plan for outsourcer Serco
By James Quinn, Executive Business Editor
6:24AM BST 02 May 2014
The new chief executive of troubled outsourcer Serco admitted the company "lost traction" in recent years as he set out plans for a major strategy overhaul.
Rupert Soames, who took the reins of the FTSE 250 company on Thursday, said "the appropriate way ahead from here may not be the appropriate way five years ago".
"When it's gone from £400m of revenues a year to £4.6bn a year, it's time to look again at what it does," he said.
Talking to The Telegraph, Mr Soames, however, denied the company had lost its way, saying: "If it loses its way, it's gone through some fertile thickets on the way."
He made the comments on the back of a successful overnight placing, in which the company raised £160m at 320p a share, a slight discount to the 340.1p closing price on Wednesday night.

Serco shares slump after profits warning
The fundraising, led by brokers Bank of America Merrill Lynch and JP Morgan Cazenove, was three times oversubscribed, with a mixture of new and existing investors backing the placing.
"I'm delighted by the quality of investors … chuffed to the back teeth," said Mr Soames.
The placing is designed to give the company some financial headroom to allow Mr Soames to undertake the strategic review without having to initiate a fire sale of core assets.
The fundraising was announced on Wednesday night, alongside Serco's third profit warning in six months and news that Andrew Jenner, the company's chief financial officer for the past 12 years, is to depart once a replacement has been found.
Asked if he was surprised that his arrival began with such a flurry of negative news, Mr Soames said: "There's no point blubbing about it.
"It's not as if I didn't know there were going to be difficulties, it's just the order of how many tomatoes that are going to be thrown at you."
He said however that he was "delighted" at the reaction from investors to the placing. Shares in Serco closed off 0.1p at 340p, 20p above the placing price.
The former Aggreko chief executive said that, having spent all of yesterday talking to investors, the biggest gripe remained the continued profit warnings.
The company said on Wednesday that adjusted operating profit at constant currency rates would be not less than £170m, down from £220m to £250m just seven weeks ago when it published its results for 2013.
The downgrade was the result of new terms on its Northern Rail train franchise, fewer contract wins and costs related to the closure of its Australian garrison support business.
That £170m figure could be reduced yet further – some £15m lower – based on current rates of exchange, Serco went on to warn.
The warning was the latest in a line of bad news for the company, which lost a £40m government tagging contract last year after it was found to have charged for dead offenders and some [Crossed Keys saboteurs] who were in prison.
As a result, it was prohibited from bidding for government work until January, booked £90m in exceptional charges, and saw profits fall by 62pc last year.
Mr Soames said that his strategic review was vital to take the company forward, and he pointed to the fact that at Aggreko [the provider of Crossed Keys temporary power for Obama's bogus inauguration] he carried out such a review every five years."
"The Owners
Larry A. Silverstein was appointed a director of Westfield America in May 1997. Since 1979, Mr. Silverstein has been President of Silverstein Properties, Inc., a Manhattan-based real estate investment and development firm which owns interests in and operates over 10 million square feet of office space. Mr. Silverstein is a member of the New York Bar, and a Governor of the Real Estate Board of New York, having served as its Chairman. He is a trustee of New York University and is the founder and Chairman Emeritus of the New York University Real Estate Institute. He is Chairman of the Realty Foundation, Vice Chairman of the South Street Seaport Museum, and a board member of the Museum of Jewish Heritage.
New York, NY October 17, 2000: Blackstone Real Estate Advisors, the global real estate investment and management arm of The Blackstone Group, L.P., announced today that it has purchased, from Teachers Insurance and Annuity Association, the participating mortgage secured by 7 World Trade Center, a commercial office complex controlled by real estate developer Larry Silverstein"
[http://burningbush.netfirms.com/TIAA-CREF.html — link expired] Factsheet on Teachers Insurance and Annuity Associaion (TIAA) (note: Joseph W. Luik is probably the guy who brokered the deal for TIAA)
"But before the building can rise further than the substation, major financing issues have to be resolved by Larry Silverstein, who controls the long-term lease on 7 World Trade Center as well as the World Trade Center complex. The good news for Mr. Silverstein is that the company that insured 7 World Trade, Industrial Risk Insurers, has indicated that it will make a full payment under its $861 million policy. But it's not clear whether Mr. Silverstein can use those proceeds to start building without first reaching an agreement with the mortgage holder on 7 World Trade Center, Blackstone Real Estate Advisors."
"Bank of America reportedly holds the loan on 7 World Trade Center."
"Fitch placed classes of Banc of America LL, Inc. Series 2001-7WTC on Rating Watch Negative due to the increased likelihood that the building will be rebuilt in the near future, using insurance proceeds. The transaction is secured by the beneficial ownership interest in a trust that owns a loan secured by certificates owned by Blackstone Real Estate Partners III LP through related entities representing ownership interest in another trust secured by four mortgages originally totaling approximately $449.4 million on a leasehold interest in 7 World Trade Center. It now appears, due to the urgency to rebuild the ConEd substation, that 7 WTC will be rebuilt in the near future and that, in effect, the bondholders may take on the increased risks of construction lending. It is still possible that bondholders will be repaid prior to construction, because the existing mortgages have a relatively high interest rate and less expensive financing alternatives may be available. Due to political forces surrounding the continued viability of lower Manhattan, Fitch believes that the city will use its best efforts to aid Silverstein in attracting high quality tenants to the building. However, Fitch believes that the cash flow that existed prior to the destruction of 7 WTC will not be replicated, particularly due to the projected substantial reduction in building size."
"According to BestWire, Employers Reinsurance Corp's Industrial Risk Insurers has agreed to pay a claim for 7 World Trade Center, but a final price has yet to be settled. Some of the insurance proceeds will be used to pay off bondholders who bought part of the building's US$383 million mortgage. Larry Silverstein, the building's developer and leaseholder of the WTC twin towers, has said the claim for 7 World Trade Center will be US$861 million [they doubled their money!!!!]"

"Message from Chair Jacqueline A. Berrien on the 10th Anniversary of 9/11
September 11, 2011
Dear EEOC Colleagues:
Ten years ago, like so many people across the United States and the globe, I was shocked and sickened to witness the destructive force of the terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center in New York City and the Pentagon in Northern Virginia, and the fatal crash in Shanksville, Pennsylvania of an airplane en route to an unknown target in Washington, DC. The images of danger and suffering associated with September 11, 2001 are an indelible part of our national memory. As the nation solemnly observes the 10th anniversary of the 9/11 attacks, many of us will pause to honor the memories of the victims of this senseless violence and convey condolences to their surviving family members and friends. And of course, the selflessness and bravery of those who risked their own health and safety in order to help others during the attacks must never be forgotten.
I also believe, however, that it is important to remember that countless acts of compassion and courage followed closely behind this unprecedented tragedy, and ultimately helped to restore to survivors and witnesses a measure of faith that we would somehow, someday recover from the grief and loss that we experienced collectively on September 11th. In that spirit, I am taking this opportunity to recall the extraordinary resilience and fortitude of the EEOC employees who worked in offices located near the sites of the attacks, and the compassionate and swift response of EEOC staff across the country who mobilized to support their colleagues in the wake of 9/11.
As many of you know, but those who have come to the EEOC in the past decade may not, in 2001 the EEOC's New York District Office was located on the 18th floor of building 7 of the World Trade Center complex, only a few hundred yards from the Center's twin towers. Thanks to the skill and courage of the evacuation team, our employees were safely evacuated from 7 World Trade Center. However, shortly after they made it out of the building, many witnessed firsthand the total destruction of the towers that stood directly across from their offices. While there were, thankfully, no physical injuries or deaths among our staff, Philadelphia District Office Director Spencer Lewis, who was then serving as Director of the New York District Office, said that the "emotional toll [wa]s unimaginable." In our Washington, D.C. offices, all employees were safely evacuated after the Pentagon was hit. However, reported threats that other government buildings — including the White House and Capitol – were slated for attack kept anxiety high in Washington for the entire day, and indeed for a long period after September 11th.
On the afternoon of September 11th, several hours after the collapse of the towers, 7 World Trade Center, the home of our New York District Office, also collapsed. Our employees' personal effects and all of the agency's files, ork products and equipment were completely destroyed in the collapse. Incredibly, New York City firefighter John Misha later recovered the agency seal from rubble at the scene of the collapse. The recovered seal remains on display today – battered, yet miraculously intact – in the entry to the New York District Office.
In spite of the catastrophic losses suffered in New York, within days of the attacks, EEOC began the painstaking work of reconstructing files and reproducing the work product that was buried under the rubble of 7 World Trade Center. Significantly, many offices and staff across the country pitched in to ease and expedite the recovery effort. Intake calls were re-routed to Boston, Massachusetts; temporary offices were housed in Newark, New Jersey; "care packages" were sent from employees in Houston, Texas to their colleagues in New York; and to buoy depressed spirits, EEOC staff across the country sent supportive messages and placed calls to the New York District Office staff.
The remarkable pace of the restoration of normal operations is memorialized in agency press releases: on September 12, 2001 an EEOC press release announced, "EEOC New York Office Destroyed in Terrorist Attack on World Trade Center"; only 16 days after the attacks, the agency announced that the New York District Office would resume partial operations the following week; and a little more than a month after the attacks, the press was informed that the EEOC "re-opened for business at a temporary Manhattan location, restoring essential agency services to residents of the New York area." None of this would have been possible without the concerted effort and tireless support of many members of our staff and the commitment of Chair Cari M. Dominguez to the swift and complete restoration of the New York District Office's operations after 9/11.
On this occasion, I believe that it is also fitting to recall how quickly and effectively EEOC employees addressed novel workplace discrimination issues that arose in the aftermath of the 9/11 attacks, and to consider the continuing significance of that work to the agency and the Nation. While the terrorist attacks inspired countless acts of heroism and goodwill throughout our nation, unfortunately, many religious, ethnic, and national origin minorities became the victims of pernicious discrimination in the workplace. In the initial months after the attacks, the EEOC saw a 250 percent increase in the number of religion-based discrimination charges involving Muslims and persons of Middle Eastern descent.
Responding quickly, the EEOC began a targeted outreach campaign aimed at educating employers, civil rights organizations, and members of religious groups on employee and employer rights and responsibilities under the law and how to prevent religious and national origin discrimination in the aftermath of 9/11. Within days of the terrorist attacks, Chair Dominguez issued a press release "call[ing] on all employers and employees across the country to promote tolerance and guard against unlawful workplace discrimination based on national origin or religion." The Commission also held a public meeting in December 2001 on 9/11 backlash discrimination and best practices to prevent and address this type of discrimination in the workplace.
Today, despite the best efforts of the EEOC and many enforcement partners, we continue to see more charges involving religious discrimination and national origin discrimination against Muslims and people who are or are perceived to be from Middle Eastern nations. As a result, in addition to our general outreach and education efforts to ensure the Nation's laws prohibiting employment discrimination on the basis of religion and national origin are vigorously enforced, the EEOC has continued to work closely with stakeholders most affected by backlash discrimination to ensure that both employees and employers are aware of their rights and responsibilities.
Looking toward the future, I have asked Commissioner Ishimaru to lead a task force to examine immigration related employment issues. This group will evaluate and make recommendations to improve EEOC's and the federal government's accessibility to immigrant communities and more effectively coordinate our enforcement, litigation, outreach and education efforts related to national origin discrimination.
In observance of the 9/11 Anniversary, I have asked the Office of Communications and Legislative Affairs (OCLA) to release a public statement on EEOC's enforcement activities post-9/11 and re-release a statement by Spencer H. Lewis, Former Director of the New York District office entitled, "The Impact of September 11, 2001: New York's Experience." Both are referenced in this statement, but I encourage you to read them in their entirety on our website page dedicated to 9/11.
Throughout this week, in your homes, places of worship, offices, and neighborhoods, you may observe a moment of silence, participate in memorial services, or otherwise take a break from your daily routine to remember the victims and express support for the survivors of 9/11. As you do so, please reserve a special moment in your thoughts and prayers for your colleagues in the EEOC whose lives were changed forever by what they witnessed and experienced ten years ago today. Finally, I hope that you will join me in honoring the exemplary manner in which the EEOC responded to one of the most difficult periods in the history of the agency and the nation.
Sincerely and with deepest gratitude,
Jacqueline A. Berrien

(Reuters) - U.S. natural gas futures rose more than 1 percent after touching a nearly three-week low on Monday as concerns about a tighter market following Tropical Storm Harvey offset any effects from forecasts of lower cooling demand.
Front-month gas futures for September delivery on the New York Mercantile Exchange were up 4.3 cents, or 1.5 percent, at $2.935 per million British thermal units at 11:47 a.m. EDT (1547 GMT). The contract rebounded from $2.849, its lowest since Aug. 9.
About 26 percent of natural gas production in the Gulf of Mexico is offline due to Tropical Storm Harvey, the Bureau of Safety and Environmental Enforcement said in a statement on Sunday.
"The offline production of gas in the Gulf of Mexico was more than anticipated and surprising," said analyst Phil Flynn of Price Futures Group in Chicago.
Although demand is expected to decrease due to power outages and cooler weather, supplies have been very tight this season, he added.
Early estimates showed utilities injected 38 billion cubic feet of gas into storage during the week ended Aug. 25. That compares with an addition of 46 bcf a year earlier and a five-year average injection of 67 bcf for the period.
If correct, total stocks would rise to 3.163 trillion cubic feet. That would put inventories about 7 percent below a year earlier and less than 1 percent above the five-year average.
Analysts have said utilities probably would stockpile just 1.7 trillion cubic feet of gas during the April-October injection season, below the five-year average of 2.1 tcf. Relatively low output, rising sales abroad and higher-than-average cooling demand earlier this summer have been limiting the quantities going into storage.
The projected build would put inventories at 3.8 tcf at the end of October, below the year-earlier record of 4.0 tcf and the five-year average of 3.9 tcf.
Below-normal temperatures are forecast for the next two weeks, according to a U.S. weather model.
U.S. natural gas speculators cut their net long positions in the week to Aug. 22, betting prices would fall as futures tumbled on concerns that Harvey would hurt cooling demand, data on Friday showed.
The number of rigs drilling for natural gas in the United States fell by two last week to 180, data from oil services company Baker Hughes showed on Friday.

Looking for someone really special. 18yr (30052, GA, Walton County)
As previously stated, I'm looking for someone special. Someone that can deal with all my problems and doesn't think less of me for them. And that person doesn't have to get in a relationship with me...they could just be a friend. But I'm really looking for a relationship. Think you can handle it? Read on and find out. I've had my heart shattered and broken more times than I can count. It will take me at least 2 years to trust you even a little bit and I wouldn't be surprised if it took longer. I will think everything that you say or do is 100% designed to hurt me and you will need to constantly reassure me that you care. I have severe depression and am suicidal, and you need to be able to handle my terrible emotional problems. And there's a good chance I can never love you because I've been hurt so many times. Most of you will have already gone onto the next post. But if you're still here, and still interested, keep reading. I'm willful and impulsive. seeking an affair can at times be a heartless bitch yet other times I'm the most caring person in the world. I want to be treated in a special way and I'll tell you outright when I don't like the way you act towards me. I'm very intelligent and logical-minded and I need my life to be of a certain structure in order to function properly. I enjoy video games and Sci-Fi. I have a long-term career goal and everything I do is designed to get me there. I'm a hopeless romantic and always love a good mystery. I try to fill my life with the same intrigue, I love to keep people guessing. I'm not pretty in the slightest and I don't pretend to be. What's beautiful about me is my mind and if you can't love me for that then you're not worth my time. Still here? Well then, looks like you have a fighting chance. If you want to get to know me, then go right ahead and email me. But it would be an added bonus if you fit my general requirements. I don't like drugs, drinking, or smoking. You will never find me participating in these activities. You cannot do any of these if you expect to be with me. However, you can drink provided you never get drunk and you never do it in front of me. If you do it in front of me, I'll pour the beer on your head and shove the bottle up your ass. If you're the slightest bit egotistical, stay away from me. Feeling good about yourself is fine, and thinking you're worth something is great. Constantly talking about how wonderful you are and expecting everything nice I say to you is not appreciated, and you will find yourself dumped faster than anything if you even begin to hint that you take me for granted. Do not lie to me about important things. Lying is in general a behavior that I feel should be rewarded...for instance, telling me how nice I am when I know I'm not. However, I've had people lie to me about wanting to help me and wanting to be with me. Don't beat around the bush with issues like that. I'm blunt and honest, you should be able to be the same way with me. Be sweet, kind and considerate. If you're nice to me, I'll be nice to you. If you act like a jerk, the treatment you get from me is ten times worse than anything your imagination could come up with. I may be harsh, but I'm still fairly polite. Please do me the same courtesy. I can't think of anything else at the moment, but I'm sure I will. But please, don't let any of this concern you. As an antisocial college student your emails are more than welcome.

Once the haunt of London's artists and writers, Hampstead now combines its literary leanings with an air of establishment, this is where the city's success stories come to put down their roots. Bookshops, boutiques, winding alleyways and, of course, the wonderful expanses of the heath call out to those whose affluent present has not entirely eclipsed a more eccentric past.
And so it is with Lancaster Grove. Original features mix with the contemporary. From the cornicing to the grand windows, the jaw-dropping bespoke dining table to the architect-designed glass floor, Lancaster Grove is destined to linger in your memories for years to come.
Magic Circle
Your host is a businessman with a special passion for theatre, while your hostess manages a portfolio of careers, including work as a psychotherapist, artist, and in conflict resolution. Not that there'll be any conflicts to resolve at Lancaster Grove, except, perhaps, who gets to nab the master suite...
Razzle dazzle 'em
There's an atmosphere of pure wonder about Lancaster Grove. Perhaps it's the glitter that rains softly from the chandeliers, the way the light gleams from the polished chrome, or maybe it's the colour palette, with its hues of gentle twilight; we know you'll feel it too.
Downstairs, the exceptionally large open plan living space features a winding metal dining table, seating a comfortable twelve, and a glossy blue Aga. Art and sculptures sit all around, while, next door, the TV room, with its cosy sofas and garden views, is invitingly intimate. With its writing desk and extensive library, the study is more traditional in tone, and outside, the clever garden seems to have been designed with parties very much in mind.
Up on the first floor, the elegant drawing room stretches the length of the house; here you'll delight in the designer furniture, original fireplace and some funky antiques. Next door, the master suite features a king sized bed and a restful en suite, with antique furniture and a decadent roll top bath. Up again and you'll find four further bedrooms, three doubles, one with an en suite, and a single, alongside a comfortable family bathroom.
Intellectual endeavours
Whether you're hobnobbing with your neighbours, spotting blue plaques or browsing the bookshops, Hampstead has plenty to keep your mind occupied. You've some of the city's finest restaurants and gastropubs close by, or, drop into one of your many local delis and fix a picnic to take to Hampstead Heath. And if you need to drop into town, hop onto the tube at nearby Belsize Park. You can be at Leicester Square in under twenty minutes.

This information will help you prepare for your functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) at Memorial Sloan Kettering (MSK).
An fMRI is a test that uses strong magnetic fields to create pictures of the inside of your brain. It's used to look at brain activity by measuring the amount of blood flowing to different parts of your brain. During your fMRI, you will be asked to do simple tasks that will help your doctor find the area of your brain that controls speech and movement. This information will help your doctor plan your care.
If you have any of the devices listed below, call 646-227-2323. It may not be safe for you to have an MRI.
- Pacemaker
- Automatic implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (AICD)
- Breast tissue expander
- Aneurysm clip
If an MRI is not safe for you, your doctor will order a different test. If you have any other questions about your MRI, call your doctor's office.
Before Your fMRI
Preparing for Your fMRI
- If you have a medical implant or device, ask the doctor who put it in for the exact name and manufacturer. If you don't have this information before your fMRI, you may not be able to have the fMRI that day.
- During your fMRI, you will lie on your back with your arms at your side. If you think you will be uncomfortable lying still or if you're afraid of being in a narrow or small space, talk with your doctor or nurse ahead of time.
- If you wear contact lenses, please wear them the day of the fMRI. This will make it easier to complete the tasks presented to you while you are in the fMRI.
- If you wear a medication patch on your skin, you may need to remove it before your fMRI. This is because metal in the patch may heat up during your fMRI and cause burns. Make sure you have an extra medication patch with you to apply after your fMRI.
The Day of Your fMRI
Things to remember
- Check the printed reminder you received from your doctor's office for the time and location of your fMRI.
- If you have a medical device (such as a stent or port), bring the information card that your nurse gave you to your fMRI.
- You may take your medication(s) as usual before your fMRI.
- If you wear a medication patch on your skin, bring an extra one with you.
- If your doctor prescribed medication to help you relax during your fMRI, bring it with you. Don't take it without speaking to the technician performing the fMRI first.
What to expect
You will change into a hospital gown before going into the scanning area. For safety reasons, you will place your clothing, credit cards, and any objects (such as your phone, jewelry, coins, and glasses) in a locker. This is because objects with even a small amount of metal can fly into the magnet, and the magnet can damage mobile phones and credit cards.
Your doctor will talk with you about the fMRI tasks that you will be doing before you go into the MRI scanning room. You may be asked to think of words that fit a category or answer questions about your speech or strength. At this time you should tell your doctor about any speech difficulties you may have.
Your technologist will bring you to the scanning room and help you onto the MRI table. The MRI scanner is a large, donut-shaped magnet. It makes a loud tapping noise during the scan.
Once you're comfortable on the table, your technologist will slide the table into the scanner and begin your MRI. You will be able to speak with your technologist during the entire scan.
While you're lying in the MRI scanner, your doctor will ask you to perform a task for about 20 seconds and then rest. This will be repeated 5 to 6 times.
It's important to lie still during the scan.
Your fMRI will take 30 to 60 minutes.Back to top
After Your Procedure
- When your fMRI is complete, your technologist will slide the scanning table out of the machine and help you off the table. After you get your belongings, you may leave the fMRI suite.
- There are no restrictions after your fMRI and no special care is needed.
- Your doctor will get a report with the results of your fMRI. They will use this and other test results to plan your care.

Prairie Naturals CS-Force Plus Product Information
Prairie Naturals CS-FORCE PLUS combines Chondroitin Sulfate, Glucosamine Sulphate and Bromelain.* It contains the exact ratio of Glucosamine Sulfate and Chondroitin Sulfate recommended in the best-selling book "The Arthritis Cure" by Dr. Jason Theodosakis.* This safe and non-toxic joint support formula for arthritis sufferers of all ages has shown remarkable success.* CS-FORCE PLUS is fortified with bromelain, an enzyme derived from pineapple with anti-inflammatory properties. CS-FORCE PLUS also helps maintain and restore cartilage and connective tissue leading to a wider range of pain free motion.*
Each Softgel Contains:
Glucosamine Sulfate: is an amino sugar naturally produced in the body by glucose (blood sugar) combining with an amino group derived from glutamine (an amino acid).* This amino sugar is an essential nutrient for the healthy synthesis of connective tissue and synovial fluid.*
Glucosamine sulfate is used extensively in the process of all tissue building and is one of the nutritional building blocks of cartilage.* It stimulates the body's manufacture of collagen, the protein portion of the fibrous substance that holds joint connective tissue together.* Collagen is the main component of the shock-absorbing cushion called articular cartilage-the white, smooth surface which covers the ends of body joints, such as those in the wrist, fingers, toes, ankles, knees, hips and between the discs of the spine.* Osteoarthritis develops as a result of the wearing away of cartilage and the reduction of synovial fluid, another natural cushion for the joints.* There is significant research to demonstrate that treatment with Glucosamine Sulfate can actually reverse the effects of cartilage and joint damage and repair connective tissue.*
Chondroitin sulfate: Essential to cartilage growth and repair, chondroitin sulfate is produced by cartilage cells called "chondrocytes".* Chondroitin sulfate interacts with the building blocks of connective tissue, maintaining the normal function and structural integrity of the joints and other tissues. As the molecules in cartilage that attract and hold water, chondroitin sulfate helps cartilage retain its elasticity and fluidity, thereby increasing the pain free range of motion of the joint.*
Bromelain: Bromelain is a protolytic (protein digesting) enzyme derived from the pineapple plant.* Originally studied for therepeutic applications in the 1950's, it was first noted for digestive properties, though through later research, bromelain also proved to be an effective anti-inflammatory.* Bromelain reduces inflammation by first breaking down fibrin, which is the barrier the body creates around an injured area and creating a block that interrupts blood flow and tissue drainage, therefore creating swelling.* By stimulating plasmin production, the substance that breaks down the fibrin, bromelain can be effective in almost all cases of inflammation.*
- Helps relieve pain caused by arthritis and other joint disorders*
- Helps reduce inflammation*
- Helps rebuild damaged cartilage*

Chattanooga is the fourth largest city in Tennessee. Its government is comprised of an elected mayor and a nine-member City Council.
The mayor is the executive who runs city government.
He oversees a large administration that provides government services. The structure of this government is mostly determined by the mayor himself. The responsibilities of city government are determined by the City Charter and City Code.
The mayor is popularly elected in a citywide election every four years. The current mayor, Andy Berke, was first elected in March 2013. Chattanooga's mayor is limited to serving two consecutive terms in office.
The mayor is required to submit an annual budget to the City Council, which serves as a blueprint for government operations and infrastructure projects.
City Council
The Chattanooga City Council is a legislative body. It passes ordinances, or laws, and oversees the administration and public spending.
The city is divided into nine districts. Each district elects one council member every four years. Council members are not term-limited.
The City Council meets every Tuesday at 1000 Lindsay St. It conducts most of its business in two different meetings. Council members discuss legislation at afternoon agenda sessions. They vote at evening meetings.
Other Offices
There are other government offices and elected officials that fall outside of the mayor and City Council.
Two city judges are elected every eight years. The city attorney and auditor are appointed to their positions.

Sometimes we work toward changes we want and sometimes change happens to us. Sometimes big change throws our life into a spin but sometimes a small change reminds us, it's time again to do the new, shake things up, you've gotten too complacent.
So here's what got me thinking about this.
Every Saturday for probably a decade I've gone to the same workout class with Betsy. I loved Betsy's class because every Saturday it was different, never the same and I was just one of her many devotees.
Well, this morning I went to the gym, ready to do my beloved Betsy's class and was informed. Betsy is gone.
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! What??????????!!!!!!
Sorry, the gym desk person said sympathetically. I think she's going to another gym.
I love Betsy's class. I trudged up to the treadmill, dejected, disappointed. I got on the treadmill, frustrated, ticked off. Something I like to do, part of my weekly routine, is going to change.
And that's when I had a little talk with myself.
Yes, me. The Queen of Do the New, the Dare Master recognized I was having a real hissy fit moment because I did not want this one thing to change.
I know you know what I'm talking about.
Your favorite hair stylist moves. The coworker you love changes jobs. The product you depend on is discontinued. The restaurant you like closes.
It's soooo SMALL compared to cancer, or death or divorce or job loss and yet…and yet it is something we depended on and didn't want it to change.
Truth? None of us likes change that we didn't purposely create. But the important thing is what happens next.
You know what I did?
I left the gym. I went home. I grabbed my backpack and walked 3 miles to my hair appointment and called a friend to meet me for lunch afterward. The walk was not my norm. It was beautiful. It felt amazing to be out out out of the gym and walking in bright sunshine and just a little chill in the air.
I know, it's because of my ongoing journey of first time experiences, I can recover and adapt quickly to the small changes, the annoying changes and take them as signs.
Betsy's exit to a new gym will force me to rethink my kind of same 'ole workout thing I've fallen into lately.
And I'm thinking, will I replace it with a dance class? Pickleball? The hula hoop lessons I've been talking about? (Seriously, I need new hula hoop tricks.)
Keeping "firsts" a healthy part of our lives; trains our brain and helps us bounce and pivot MORE EASILY to the next thing. They make us stronger and more resilient when the big changes happen.
So, thank you, Betsy. I'm bummed but you've pushed me to Do the New again. I'm off to find my new Saturday morning adventure.

Because you can't learn everything about surfing from watching Blue Crush on TNT in your parents' basement, you will need to fill those remaining Kate Bosworth-less gaps with actual lessons. And good balance. And probably a van. Or… at the very least, Surfelocity: a new online travel site geared exclusively to finding/booking the gnarliest surf trips, lessons, and camps around the world.
How's it work? Pretty simple. After setting your level of surfing skill (actual, not web) and home airport, you can immediately peruse a graphically pleasing grid of current trip deals and staff recs.
Assuming a seven-night Portuguese Surf & Yoga camp isn't your speed, fine-tune your search with the TripFinder, which allows you to choose camps, safaris, van rentals, etc. and adjust for everything from climate to size of the beach crowd to how much cash you want to spend... oh, and whether you're willing to surf with sharks.
Want to leave the possibility of sharks to chance? Fair enough. Maybe you'd rather just pick a part of the globe with waves you've been jonesing to ride?
Finally, once you've decided surfing in Brazil is totally the move, check out pics, see package deals, and book your trip straight through the site.

LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - Michael Jackson's doctor on Monday pleaded not guilty to involuntary manslaughter in the sudden death of the pop star last year from a lethal cocktail of drugs.
Dr. Conrad Murray, who has offices in Houston and Las Vegas, entered a Los Angeles courthouse to chants of "murderer" from Jackson fans gathered outside. Inside the courtroom, he faced members of the "Thriller" singer's family.
Dressed in a gray suit and red tie, Murray stood upright and spoke in a soft voice when addressing the judge.
Murray has been the focus of a police probe for months since the Los Angeles coroner's office ruled that Jackson's June 25 death was a homicide, due partly to the powerful anesthetic propofol which Murray admitted giving the 50-year-old singer to help him sleep.
The coroner's report said Jackson's death was caused by propofol and the sedative lorazepam. Painkillers, sedatives and a stimulant also were found in his body.
Authorities found bottles of propofol in Murray's doctor's bag and on the bedside table of Jackson's home, according to court records unsealed last year. They also searched Murray's offices in Las Vegas and Houston.
Prosecutors said Murray "did unlawfully, and without malice, kill Michael Joseph Jackson," according to a statement from the Los Angeles District Attorney's office.
Murray faces up to four years in prison if convicted, a sentence that some of Jackson's followers believe is relatively light given that his actions may have led to the singer's death.
Murray has insisted he did nothing wrong and has told investigators he was not the first doctor to give Jackson propofol, according to court records.
Murray, a cardiologist, was hired in May 2009 to care for Jackson while he prepared for a series of 50 comeback concerts in London aimed at reviving a career sidelined by his 2005 trial and acquittal on charges of molesting a 13-year-old boy.
The singer, dubbed the King of Pop, was a member of the legendary Motown singing group the Jackson 5 and was a hugely successful solo artist as an adult. His 1982 album "Thriller" is still the world's best-selling album.
Jackson's sudden cardiac arrest on the morning of June 25, which prompted a worldwide outpouring of grief, followed a late night rehearsal in Los Angeles for the planned concerts that were to have been called "This Is It."
A documentary film, "Michael Jackson's This Is It," made from video footage of the concert rehearsals, took in nearly $260 million at worldwide box offices.
When Jackson died, he left an estate worth hundreds of millions of dollars that went into trusts benefiting his mother, three children and various charities.
Jackson's family is said to be furious that Los Angeles police and prosecutors took months to file a criminal charge. His brother Jermaine Jackson, sister La Toya, mother Katherine and father Joe were in the courtroom on Monday.

Yearly, one Design/Build project forms the leitmotif of the programme. Projects selected have:
- a high beneficial impact on the local community at large,
- a support base within the community,
- financial and practical support from the community and sponsors/donors,
- high potentials for innovation in architecture and sustainability,
- the possibility to act as a demonstration and capacity-building project for the local community.
In close collaboration with a non-governmental organization and/or an architect, the project is developed from the ground up within the structure and process of the postgraduate programme.
Within an academic set-up, a professional working situation with a real-life project team (i.e. client, architect, contractor) is incorporated.
Project brief 2018-2019
The Design/Build project selected for 2018-2019 is 'Centre des Femmes' in Ouled-Merzoug, a small rural village situated in an oasis of one of many deserted landscapes of Morocco. Here, the inhabitants of the village, led by the principal of the local school, have initiated the idea of setting up a women's house. This house is committed to strengthening community development through education and empowerment of women by providing services, support and training opportunities.
Based on a previous realized sustainable project in the village (pre-school) and aware of the importance of sustainability and the incorporation of the local identity, the initiators have commissioned BC architects & studies (Brussels, Belgium) to develop the project. In turn, BC architects & studies has offered the project to this postgraduate programme to act as a Design/Build project for the participants.

I can tell a good story, create winning websites and drum up a design which speaks a thousand words, but what really lights my fire is lighting the fire in aspiring entrepreneurs to help them break down barriers and achieve their dreams.
Writing and design have been my business for a long time, but starting my own business has lit new fires in my belly to help other aspiring entrepreneurs to reach their goals.
After almost 25 years in journalism, I like to think I can always be relied on to tell a good story.
As well as years of experience as a reporter, I am a professional
You can count proofreading and
My love of newspaper page design has since morphed into a burning enthusiasm for design in general – adverts, corporate brochures, fliers, business cards, logos, leaflets – I love 'em all!
Websites are also a self-taught speciality.
After learning basic
WordPress is now my website weapon of choice and I have used it with great success for my own business websites, including spaldingvoice.co.uk, which has thousands of visitors, and rant-media.co.uk.
After successfully launching Rant Media (www.rant-media.co.uk) at the beginning of 2017, I am continuing to upskill further and have completed courses in life coaching and NLP techniques to equip me in my quest to help others conquer obstacles and reach their goals.
My latest training goals include SEO for local businesses and social media, digital and content marketing.
My latest business venture Impetus4 – a four-step programme for success, which includes help with business admin, specialist tasks such as social media and branding, as well as life coaching and business mentoring, can be found at www.impetus4.com.
I believe in honesty, fairness and respect. I wear my heart on my sleeve, stick to my guns, make decisions, find solutions and get things done. I am always striving to be the best I can be and to help others do the same.
From reporter, sub-editor and web editor to co-founder of an independent newspaper, I am now focused on growing my marketing and design agency and helping other small businesses to write the next chapter in their success stories.
I am a family-loving mad cat lady with a penchant for K names. I can often be found knee-deep in horse poo. I am a TV box set binger with a weird nostalgia for 80s rock gods and country and western crooners.

It has been nearly 5 years since I did a figure competition and i still get asked, "What happened to fitandsexyfe?"
It is hard to even begin because I have to think long and hard. I don't know. It wasn't a conscious decision to leave that part of my life behind, but it surely was one of the best decisions I ever made. Now let's be clear, I am typically not a person to have regrets. I tend to think everything in life happens for a reason and that each experience puts me in a specific place at the right time but for this one, single time in my life….i wholeheartedly regret competing. Let me explain myself….without going into the statistics and details about women having a known issue with body imagine and eating disorders, that is my reason! I was never a person who was self conscious or who feared food until after the competition was over.
Before the competition…I was working out and eating healthy because I wanted to! Please let that sink in for a moment because this is extremely important for the rest of this blog post. There was no pressure, no social media influence (at the time), I enjoyed creating new recipes and making healthy eating fun. Going to the gym was a no brainer. I did it simply because it is what I looked forward to every day!
Now I created my instagram and what I have enjoyed with myself I can now share with thousands of people that I don't even know! It was an entire fitness community on instagram and I was in the center of it. Topping out at 11K followers (before I deleted my account), it was amazing, the inspiration I could be to people that didn't even personally know me. The cool thing going on back in 2012 in the fitness instagram world, everyone was trying out competing. Me being all about accepting new challenges I was like heck yes sign me up! 2012, I made the verbal commitment, found a "coach" and was ready to take my body to the next level (sounds so dumb now lol).
The "coach" (who will remain nameless) was actually a personal trainer at my local gym for a very long time and I trusted her word. If she said it then I did it! Here we are, January 2013, I show up to the gym, do weigh ins and is given my new diet plan. I set a goal to do a show May 2013 so that was about a 4 month prep. Turned out to be about 18 weeks I believe. I weighed in at maybe 165 or 170? Can't remember exactly but for MY BODY, that weight is ideal but it apparently was not good enough for me at the time (eye roll). The diet she hands me was 1100 calories and I was given the instructions to do 20 minutes of cardio twice a day every single day. Did I mention I had 18 weeks of prep? Okay cool….
Prep was awfulllllllll…….AWFUL! I was moody, I was exhausted, I turned down invitations to everywhere with the fear that I'd be tempted by food I wasn't allowed to have…it was just a horrible time.
So okay, the competition happens. I reached my goal but woah boy I picked a show that was with women that were stacked (probably taking steroids) and I was no where in competition. I think I placed last. On top of placing last, I looked sick. But I did it!
If I had a coach for after the competition then I would possibly be better off. I had no guidance for being "normal" again. Nothing felt right. Anything I ate outside of chicken, tilapia, or veggies was unhealthy. A few hours after the competition I went to bagger dave's where I ordered a burger, fries, and shake. Not unusual for a typical burger outing for a normal person right? Well before that I started working on the stash of snacks I brought with me for after the show. So I went to bagger dave's not even hungry but not a single soul was gonna tell me I can't eat whatever I wanted! After that, I wasn't done, I continued eating my snacks and specifically I remember oreos! This was my life for a while. I remember buying multiple jars of peanut butter at a time and they would be gone within a week. I'm talking normal sized peanut butter that would last any normal house hold a few weeks. It took a longggggg time to recover from this. Let's call it what it is, I was binge eating. I have never in my life had an eating disorder, and still have a hard time claiming today that that was even a moment in my life for me but let's be real. It happened. I would eat and eat and eat, feel sick, and then feel guilty for doing it. Denying myself food was extremely hard because for 18 weeks I told myself I'm not allowed to have it.
The end of 2013, I packed all my stuff and moved away. Only went three hours to Columbus, OH but I NEEDED to escape. I needed a way to completely start over. New people, people who didn't know me when I was "skinny" and would be able to easily accept me as I was then. Not to mention I was starting nursing school at the time I was moving. Still not having a normal workout routine and solid diet, I searched and searched for some normalcy. No matter what, to me, I was fat. Looking back today to then, I can't even believe I thought that of myself. But it is so real.
So here I am today. A new story to tell, or a continuation if you will.
I am no longer binge eating, I rarely have guilt of eating. Every once in a while it will creep up on me but for the most part that is gone. So in that sense, I am healed, but now I am fighting a new battle and one I am not dreading. I plan to enjoy this process and let my body do what my body will do without the stress and influences of others. This is my journey and mine only. 🙂
Now don't ask me anymore.

I'm not sure there's anything left that can be written about Madlib and his production greatness so I might as well not bother. Instead, I'll give you a bit of advice about cooking the perfect mashed potatoes. After your potatoes have boiled, leave them to steam away for a minute or so while you heat plenty of butter and a splash of milk. Heating the butter first means the butter will meld better with the starchy potato, giving your mash a creamier and smoother consistency. Also, add a fuck ton of salt. Like, more than you can imagine. Seriously, Et voila. Amazing mash. You're welcome.

Mission Scenarios
Return to Top of Page.
Our Center offers three exciting mission scenarios that are run in our
NASA-designed simulators.
Return to the Moon
In the not too distant future, astronauts are returning to the Moon in order to establish a permanent, self-sustaining settlement that will eventually become a stepping-stone for future planetary exploration by humans. The crew onboard the Spacecraft must work together and with Mission Control to accomplish the tasks necessary for a successful lunar landing, but will they be able to solve the emergencies they encounter on their journey to the Moon?
Voyage to Mars
In the latter part of the 21st Century, a now routine voyage to Mars has brought a crew of astronauts to the red planet to replace a group of astronauts that have been living on Mars for nearly two years. The Spacecraft astronauts and those working in Mission Control on the Martian surface need to perform a variety of scientific experiments, conduct space research, and even construct a probe, before the crew transfer can be successfully completed - but will the mission be jeopardized by the enormous dust storms that plague the red planet?
Rendezvous With A Comet
The year is 2036 and a crew of astronauts aboard a small and maneuverable Spacecraft is performing the necessary tasks to rendezvous with and collect material from the short-period comet known as "Encke." Will the Spacecraft crew, with help from Mission Control, intercept the comet in time, and, more importantly, be able to respond to any small and mysterious objects they may encounter along the way?
Lunar Quest
In the near future, humans have set up a series of permanent research habitats on the Moon. The primary habitat is Moon Base Alpha, home to dozens of astronauts and scientists who take advantage of their location on the Moon to study the Moon itself as well as other planets and beyond. The Lunar Quest Mission will be a collaborative mission between a crew in a Spacecraft and scientists in Mission Control at Moon Base Alpha. In order to expand our reach on the lunar surface even further, more building materials are required. Bringing supplies all the way from Earth is very inefficient and expensive, so a series of mining operations have been set up around the Moon. Human operated vehicles and Remotely Operated Vehicles (ROVs) work together searching for titanium and iron deposits. Scouting for and mining these sites can be dangerous work, but the future of Moon Base Alpha depends on it.

For private individuals
Today's fast-changing working world makes great demands on the job-seeker. Flexibility and self-reliance, but also a high degree of individual responsibility, are indispensable preconditions for success. Moreover, a highly professional approach to the whole application process is absolutely essential today – both in interviews and in job application documentation. With our many years of experience, our proximity to the jobs market and our absolutely individual approach to advice and guidance, we can offer you a programme that is specifically tailored to your needs. Career transition is always a challenge! However, it also presents the opportunity to explore and make use of your own resources. We support you in this process.
The key to successful professional reorientation is knowledge of your own competencies, goals and limits, not to mention targeted placement of your talents. Using structured, tried-and-true methods in a clearly defined time-framework, Mäder & Partner 's new placement programme guides candidates to the new professional positions ideally suited to their talents and needs.
Every advice programme starts with the skills appraisal, consisting of a personal interview and psychological testing. This is followed by target-setting to answer the question, "Where do I want to go?" Successful achievement of the career goal is based upon the targeted placing of one's own talent. Our service therefore does not just comprise advice, but also includes professional positioning and networking for the applicant.
If you know where you want to go, you can make a start: a fundamental principle when you are looking for a job. Professional positioning of your talents and networking are equally important.

All programmes are individually designed, with no limits on the number or the length of the meetings. The Mäder & Partner New Placement Programme is tailored to all seniority levels.
Personal reorientation
Everyone wants to ascertain the extent and nature of his or her resources. Awareness of one's own abilities and personal preferences is a requirement for success in any field. People who know who they are, what they can do and what they stand for are more likely to achieve success in their professional and private lives. Especially prior to a transition into a new professional challenge, the key to success lies in knowing one's own strengths and possibilities. This knowledge can be used to write a professional success story.
Our team of advisers uses tried and true skills appraisal coaching methods, working however in a very individual and resource-oriented manner by using a range of psychological test processes.
Successful performance is complex and multi-facetted. We deliver core advice on effectiveness in your current role and future roles.

A lot more commerce is happening on the Internet, so companies have to know how best to attract customers online. It is through video marketing online that you can broaden the reach and scope of your business. The following article contains tips you can use when you want to utilize video marketing.
Video marketing doesn't give you much time to catch viewer attention. The first 20 seconds are crucial. You should put a small tease in the beginning of the video so that your customers stay interested.
One way to get content for a video is to find a team to work with. This can be coworkers, friends, family or even a club or organization. Make sure to give them credit at the end so they can have their name in lights.
The cost of production does not determine the quality of the video. You don't need professional equipment; just keep focus and balance in your shots. You don't need anything fancy for a good quality video. Speak directly to the camera and be yourself. You may not have to do this. Sometimes it is possible to utilize PowerPoint presentations and screen capture sequences to do the job.
Stick with the topic at hand within every video. Lack of preparation can cause you to stray. Develop an outline of your video before you start shooting it. Stick to the topic and it will turn out great.
Keep YouTube at the forefront of your mind. You need to concentrate your marketing campaign here. Video hosting is free. It is also the third most popular website on the net. Not only is it the most visited video site, it's also a highly ranked search engine.
After reading this article, you should realize just how powerful online videos can be as a marketing tool. Using videos allows you to broaden your audience and reach those that you normally would not be able to reach. Take what you've learned here and put it to use.

Hasegawa's New 1/32 Scale
Junkers Ju 87G-1 Stuka
by Jerry Crandall
Junkers Ju 87G Stuka
Hasegawa's 1/32 scale Junkers Ju 87G
Stuka will be available online from Squadron.com
Hasegawa's 1/32 scale Junkers Ju 87G
Stuka will be available online from Squadron.com
When I received my Hasegwa 1/32 scale Ju 87 Stuka kit last week, I
was very anxious to do a quick build in order to try out our new
EagleCals 97 or 98 decals.
I ultimately decided on EC#98 as I liked the "B" and the "2" on the
wheel pants.
Being spoiled about building a quick build Fw 190 or Bf 109 in a few
days, I thought I could accomplish this build in maybe a day or two
Boy was I fooled.
The quickest I could put this together was one solid week, with only
a few hours off for football! This Stuka kit is, I must say, extremely
well engineered and in general has excellent fit; however you must (and
should) take your time in order to do justice to the details. I can't
wait to see what Chris or Ian can do when they take their time, as this
can be finished into a terrific model!
I encountered a few problems during construction. Firstly. when I put
the fuselage halves together I could not get the cockpit floorboard to
fit properly. As a result, the forward fuselage would not meet. I ended
up trimming off a little edge of the cockpit floor. If you look
carefully into the cockpit there is a slight gap. This might have been
caused by my haste in assembling the cockpit itself.
Secondly, the upper cockpit combing does not fit the top of the
fuselage correctly - it tapers too quickly leaving a step at the top of
the fuselage. If you attempt to spread it to match the fuselage, the
windscreen will not fit properly into the grooves.
Lastly, I'm not too thrilled about the system of using two-color
decals to represent the inner cockpit framing. One set is meant to be
seen from the outside which is a dark green color, the other set is a
dark gray 66 type color that will seen from the inside. The decals leave
the carrier film which, unfortunately shows through the canopy. By
trimming the carrier film away, the decals become very thin and fragile,
and in my mind do not accurately represent the tubular inside cockpit
bracing, although I don't know how else this could have been replicated.
When finished, this is a very striking model partially due to its
impressive size and all the extra details typical of the Ju 87. A word
of caution - you can't hurry this process of adding all these small
details as I learned the hard way, breaking off the glued-on control
surfaces TWICE! You really have to think carefully and be diligent in
handling the model as you progress. Another casualty can be seen in the
photos, the rear canopy that slides over the rear machine guns suffered
'battle damage' (too close to a hot light bulb!).
Thanks to Dr. Charles Metz who has come to my rescue by graciously
raiding parts from his kit to replace mine due to my stupid mistake!
Eagle Editions will be replacing the kit provided propeller blades with
a resin EaglePart as they don't correctly represent the actual aircraft
