RAUO calls petition to prevent new residences in area 'short-sighted'
Photo by Marta Kierkus
More than 1,100 Sandy Hill residents, who represent about 10 per cent of the area's population, have signed a petition to oppose the University of Ottawa's plan to create two new residences in the neighbourhood.
Action Sandy Hill (ASH), a community association in charge of organizing activities ranging from fall BBQs to neighbourhood watches, created the petition. The petition began circulating in October when residents became concerned that the growing number of students would have a negative impact in the historical neighbourhood, according to Sandy Hill resident and eight-year ASH board member François Bregha.
"One of the values we want to maintain in the neighbourhood is diversity, and we're concerned that if one demographic group grows too large, it will drive other demographics away."
Because the U of O has grown by about 10,000 students since the year 2000, it has been unable to accommodate all the students who need to live in residence. Bregha said "there is absolutely enough room on campus to build new residences."
"The University of Ottawa has the lowest percentage of rooms in all of Ontario," he said. "We celebrate their idea to build more residences, but we think they should build them on campus."
The petition was presented Nov. 4 to the Town & Gown committee, which includes ASH members and university representatives, and Bregha said ASH will continue to lobby against the university building residences off-campus.
"There are two tracks we are fighting against here: the university residences that the school is promoting, and the off-campus residences that private landlords are creating by converting family homes into multi-apartment buildings," Bregha said. "All of this is proceeding without an overall plan. We are asking the city to get ahead of the problem, instead of trying to respond, as it is doing here."
Kaitlynne-Rae Landry, president of the Residents' Association of the University of Ottawa (RAUO), said the lack of residences is problematic but disagrees with ASH's approach.
"Quite frankly, I think this petition is incredibly short-sighted," she said. "I would personally be willing to bet that the noise, people, and commotion level outside of any given residence is lower than the same on any given street in Sandy Hill."
Landry said the aversion to residences is based on media-portrayed stereotypes as opposed to the real-life behaviour of U of O students. She said Sandy Hill residents should be more concerned about students living on their own than those being monitored by the RAUO.
Bregha and Landry said the real issue is the landlords who exploit students.
"There are people willing to seize the fact that the university is growing as an opportunity to make some additional money, but it is their choice to do so," Landry said.
Bregha said there are landlords and developers "exploiting too many loopholes."
The city has put a temporary hold on housing conversions because of the issue.

The Imaging Core enables comprehensive data acquisition on brain structure and function at different spatial and temporal resolutions using our advanced optical imaging equipment.
The Imaging Core provides the highest level of microscope equipment in the country. Observations of fixed brains, cultured cells, and even cells in the living mouse brain can be examined with various spatio-temporal resolutions ranging from submicron to whole brains.
It is an inverted type confocal laser microscope system. This microscope has a large FOV size of 25 and is equipped with a resonant scanner and laser unit LU-N4 (405, 488, 561 and 640 nm), and GaAsP detector. They enable to obtain images with high-speed and high-sensitivity. In addition, culture system (made by Tokai Hit) is also provided, and long-time live cell imaging is possible.
It is an upright type multiphoton laser microscope system. High sensitivity and high quality images can be acquired with the GaAsP NDD unit. By using piezo elements to drive the objective lens in the Z-axis direction, it is possible to take 3D images at high speed. The femtosecond pulse laser can simultaneously use two laser lines with a variable wavelength of 700-1300 nm and a fixed wavelength of 1040 nm, and is suitable for long-wavelength dye and multicolor imaging.
Virtual Reality (VR) systems can be used with the mouse to investigate brain function during behavioral tasks. You can examine the basic mechanisms of animal navigation, recognition, learning, or memory combined with two-photon and wide-field microscopes.
The patch clamp amplifier supports dual recording. In addition, the manipulator can be driven in 3 axis directions + diagonal direction. We are preparing for in vivo patch clamps, so you need to prepare by yourself for performing in vitro experiments such as slice patches.
It is a fluorescence microscope that does not require a dark room. With the sectioning function, you can obtain clear images without fluorescent blur with easy operation. In addition, high resolution wide field of view image can be taken at high speed by image joint function.
Rapid-Scope is a custom-designed light-sheet fluorescence microscope (LSFM) with mesoscopic magnitude (0.5X-2X) to explore a volumetric sample by less-invasive optical slicing. The cleared brain sample is dipped in the oil and illuminated by spatially-uniform thin light-sheet which provides a three-dimensionally isotropic resolution and covers a wide area of visualization.

The States of Guernsey has adopted regulations permitting foreign limited partnerships to migrate or continue into Guernsey using the statutory migration process set out in the Limited Partnerships (Guernsey) (Migration) Regulations 2020 (the Regulations). In conjunction with the fast track process for the licensing of managers, Guernsey now provides an expedient and streamlined process for migrating fund structures into the jurisdiction.
In order to migrate into Guernsey the migration must be permitted by the jurisdiction in which the limited partnership is currently registered and the limited partnership must be solvent. Where the limited partnership is regulated in its current jurisdiction, the consent of the Guernsey Financial Services Commission (the GFSC) must be obtained as part of the migration process. The migration must also comply with the terms of the limited partnership's existing partnership agreement and consideration should therefore be given as to whether any amendments, and/or the consent of the limited partners, are required prior to proceeding with the migration.
Application Process
The application process for migration is straight-forward and broadly mirrors the existing process available for migrating companies into Guernsey. The process includes the submission of a declaration from the general partner that the requirements in respect of the migration have been fulfilled. In addition, the limited partnership will need to submit "migration details" addressing administrative matters including the proposed name, address and nature of the partnership's business as well as its duration, if any, and whether it is to have legal personality upon registration. Where GFSC consent is required, as above, this must also be submitted as part of the application.
For regulatory purposes, or depending on local substance requirements or the location of management and/or administration activities, it may be necessary or desirable for the general partner of the investment fund to also migrate into Guernsey, in which case, the existing migration process available to companies can be used together with the fast track regulatory application regime if required.
Effect of Migration
Once the migration application has been approved, the Guernsey Greffier will register the limited partnership in the Register of Limited Partnerships, allocate a registration number and issue a certificate of registration which shall be conclusive evidence that the limited partnership is duly registered.
Migration into Guernsey preserves continuity for the limited partnership as it does not result in the creation of a new person or entity. Furthermore, all assets, liabilities, contracts, debts and other obligations of the partnership and its limited partners as well as choses in action and judgments, whether in favour of, or against the partnership and its limited partners, are not affected by the migration.
Fast Track Applications
Where the limited partnership or the general partner requires regulation/licensing in Guernsey it will be necessary to satisfy the applicable regulatory/licensing obligations. However, both the overseas fund and its general partner may be able to avail themselves of the fast-track application regime offered by the GFSC which facilitates migrations of managers of overseas collective investment schemes as well as the registrations of Registered Funds and Private Investment Funds. Applications under the fast-track regime are subject to a 10 day review period in respect of managers and, helpfully, may be combined with the required GFSC consent to migrate referred to above.

Area of Law: Workers' Compensation
Answer # 639
Occupational disease and chronic mental stress claimsRegion: Ontario Answer # 639
Occupational disease claims
Unlike claims arising from workplace accidents or injuries, compensation claims for diseases allegedly caused by unhealthy conditions or other factors in the workplace, known as occupational disease claims, are difficult to investigate and determine with certainty.
In Ontario, the Occupational Health and Safety Act (OHSA) sets out minimum health and safety standards for workplaces in Ontario and establishes procedures for dealing with workplace hazards.The OHSA has detailed regulations governing many aspects of worker safety, including exposure and handling of biological and chemical agents, and toxic substances.
Occupational disease claims, however, are made under the Workplace Safety and Insurance Act and are handled by the Workplace Safety and Insurance Board (WSIB).
Occupational disease claims may arise from exposure to toxic chemicals or materials, poorly designed equipment and inadequate ventilation, to name a few examples. A recent study estimates as many as 6,000 Ontario workers die every year from occupational diseases. Since the symptoms of many occupational diseases can take years or even decades to surface, the person may not initally associate the disease with their employment and may not realize that they have a valid claim.
Proving the workplace is a significant cause or contributor to a disease, such as cancer, can require the testimony of numerous medical experts, rigorous examination of a patient's medical history, surveys of other similar workplaces, and lengthy legal arguments. As a result, there are only about 400 claims filed each year in Ontario citing occupational diseases.
That said, workers have received compensation for illnesses ranging from asbestosis to bronchitis to repetitive strain injury. It is interesting to note that compensation has been awarded even in cases where the illness was "significantly" but not entirely caused by the worksite.
Making an occupational disease claim
Anyone can make an occupational disease claim if they think they became ill because of something they did or were exposed to at work. You can make a claim yourself, or through your employer, doctor, union, or someone who you choose to advocate on your behalf. As it could take months, even years, to discover you have a work-related illness, in that regard there is no time limit for filing an occupational disease claim. However, you have six months to file your claim once you learn of your illness or disease.
You must include detailed information in your claim, including:
- your name, address, date of birth and SIN;
- the name and location of your employer;
- all symptoms or illnesses you are claiming;
- detailed information about the type of work you do and possibly previous employment;
- what substances and conditions you were exposed to; and
- names and addresses of all doctors and dates of visits.
Once the WSIB receives your claim, you will be assigned a claim number and an adjudicator from the WSIB Occupational Disease and Survivor Benefits Program will review your claim and make a decision about benefits. The time that an adjudicator will take to make a decision varies, as it depends on how long it takes them to gather workplace information and medical reports.
Chronic mental stress claims
The Stronger, Fairer Ontario Act (Bill 177) is now law. The new law has made changes to the Workplace Safety Insurance Act (WSIA) allowing for chronic mental stress benefits arising out of, and in the course of, employment.
On January 1, 2018, the following transitional provisions (rules) came into effect to determine who is entitled to make a mental stress claim:
- claims of mental stress arising on or after April 29, 2014, that have not yet been filed, can be filed by workers, or their survivors, until July 1, 2018. Claims filed during this six-month period will be decided under the new mental stress rules,
- mental stress claims that were already filed (in a timely manner), and have not yet been decided by the Workplace Safety and Insurance Board (WSIB) as of January 1, 2018, will be decided by the WSIB under the new rules, regardless of when the worker's mental stress occurred,
- if a worker (or a worker's survivor) filed a mental stress claim (in a timely manner), and then filed an appeal (in a timely manner) with the Workplace Safety and Insurance Appeals Tribunal (WSIAT), and if the appeal was still undecided as of January 1, 2018, the WSIAT will send the claim back to the WSIB to re-adjudicate the claim under the new rules, regardless of the date on which the worker's mental stress occurred.
Both chronic and traumatic mental stress claims can be made under these transitional rules.
If a worker's claim for mental stress has already been denied by the WSIB or the WSIAT, and the claim does not fall within these transitional rules, the worker cannot re-file the mental stress claims.
For workers in the construction field, the WSIB has partnered with the Construction Safety Association of Ontario (CSAO) to develop a special incident reporting program, called Construction Exposure Incident Reporting (CEIR).
For more information about occupational disease and construction exposure incident claims, contact the Workplace Safety and Insurance Board.

Exfoliate with Microdermabrasion
At Glojas Smart International Aesthetics, we offer Medical Microdermabrasion, which uses medical grade aluminium crystals that are much more inert and effective than what is used for standard microdermabrasion treatments.
Exfoliating the skin is a healthy practice which is highly advisable when dealing with;
- The appearance of fine lines, scars and wrinkles
- Sun damaged and uneven skin tone
- Acne prone skin
- Blackheads
- Whiteheads
- Superficial age spots and Hyper-pigmentation
- Excessive oiliness or dry skin
Medical grade crystals are passed over the skin using a hand held device through a vacuum directly on to the outer layer of the skin's surface. These crystals, delivered at high velocity directly onto the skin's surface are immediately vacuumed away, taking the top-most layer of dead skin cells and effectively stimulating the production of collagen.
The vacuum capacity used in Medical Microdermabrasion is significantly stronger than anything used during standard microdermabrasion, therefore providing deeper penetration and guaranteeing better results.

This past Friday, while my sister and I had some alone time with Mother, we discussed her funeral and burial wishes.
Mother was very matter of fact about what she wants. I was commissioned by Her Admiralty to write her obituary and to plan the service as I had done for my grandparents.
While it was not a topic we would have preferred to discuss with Mother, as our family's legendary custom, nothing is too dark to prohibit an ounce of humor.
Over the past several days, my sister, Dena, and I have talked and texted back and forth over a number of topics, but the impending funeral has been a principal topic.
This afternoon, much has been accomplished with the planning and we spiced it up with some humor.
I reminisced about our Grandma Donna during a visit to our family cemetery just northeast of our hometown, Elwood, Indiana.
In 1978, Grandma Donna was diagnosed with chronic lymphocytic leukemia. I was thirteen, and while I had known several children my age who had suffered with leukemia, this was my much beloved grandmother and I immediately assumed she would die just like those kids my age.
Several times, Grandma responded to my uncertainty, reminding me she wasn't planning on going any time soon.
One summer day, Grandma, Mother, Grandma's father (my great grandfather), my siblings and I visited the family cemetery to tend to the individual graves. My grandparents had already installed their gravestone with all the information save the years of their deaths. Their plot was directly behind Grandpa Garrett and Grandma Belle's plot (Grandma Belle passed in 1969).
"Do you think I'll fit?" my grandmother shouted.
We all turned to see my grandmother stretched out in the ground behind her stone.
We all laughed except my great-grandfather who shook his head and said, "that's not funny, Donnie."
"You best behave, Old Man, because I'm in just the right spot to kick you on the top of your bald head when we're all here."
The laughter rose even higher into the country air of Forrestville Cemetery with Grandpa Garrett joining in.
When the horrible moment arrived in 1992, we laughed right through the tears as we celebrated Grandma Donna.
I will always be grateful our family has continually ingrained a sense of humor and the love of laughter in our lives.
However, I suspect humor and laughter are solidly built into our genes.
Grandma Donna (1924-1992)
Grandpa Garrett (1898-1998)

Warren Miller: Southern skiing
Special to the Aspen Times Weekly
Aspen, CO Colorado
My wife gave me a great item that we used to call a radio, and I don't know what you call it today, except that it comes over the air, has what seems like thousands of stations and has a great station that plays what is called pop concert music. As I sit here at the computer, they seem to be playing a lot of the music that I used as background for the early days of when I was filming ski movies in Europe.
This was in the early 1950s, before the resort owners in Switzerland and Austria came to the conclusion that the North Slope across from their village offered the best snow to ski on. The south slope around which they built their pre-World War II business was full of tuberculosis sanitariums. Visitors would come up from the coal smoke-choked cities to breath clean pure mountain air and as they used to say "Take the cure." The south slopes of St. Moritz, Davos, and St. Anton had walking trails winding up those south slopes with benches to rest on every quarter of a mile or so. I used to ski by these people out walking their dogs in the afternoon sun and having a grand old time.
Don't forget, when I started making my first feature-length ski movies, there were only 15 chairlifts in North America. There are that many chairlifts at the Yellowstone Club alone. The big deal in Europe in those days was that you could ski down the back side of a ski resort mountain to a village miles away, have lunch and some schnapps, and catch a train back to where you were staying.
It was with a bit of a surprise that I read about a ski resort at the tip of Tierra del Fuego where the southern tip of South America falls off into the Southern Ocean and does not reappear again for 750 miles of the most treacherous ocean in the world, Drake's Passage, deep inside the Antarctic ice shelf.
Tierra del Fuego is 2,000 miles or three-and-a-half hours in a commercial jet south of Buenos Aires and not a place where you would expect to find a ski resort. Yet at the south end of Beaver Mountain there are nine ski lifts and 26 runs that are going full blast in their ski season.
So far the developers have invested $29 million in the resort. If you want bragging rights at next winter's cocktail party, this is the place to go. You will be skiing farther south than anyone else in the world if you coast out into the flat at the bottom of the hill. (The person I would like to meet is the promoter who sold the investors on building a ski resort this far away from people.) It is the last spot where people who are going to the Antarctic pick up their long list of forgotten survival supplies. It might be the same kind of location as if someone decided to build a ski resort two thousand miles north of Chicago. Just wait a few more years and someone will promote that one, too.
Beaver Mountain, by the way, was named for an entrepreneurial effort that introduced almost 50 pair of beavers to that part of the world 70 years ago. The hope was that it would be enough to start a beaver fur industry. Instead they had no predators and now they number in the millions and have chewed the bark off of and thus killed, tens of thousands of trees in that part of the world. Couple that with all of the beaver dams they have built that have flooded the countryside and you have ecology at its worst.
With its nine ski lifts and 26 ski runs, they are gearing up for 2015 when they will play host to Interski, the world's largest symposium of ski instructors, with representatives from 36 nations participating on its slopes.
I was a little scared to do the research on what an airplane ticket would cost round trip from Mt. Perfect in Montana and without some sort of subsidy from the resort that the ski instructor works at. I don't know any instructors who can afford that long of a trip away from their summer landscaping business or whatever they have chosen for their summer profession.
If this resort had appeared when I was making ski movies years ago, I could have probably drummed up the resources and crew to expose the world's farthest southern resort to the thousands of people who used to support my lifestyle by attending my annual movies, but after 55 years of chasing the unique, the improbable and the impossible, I find that I really enjoy writing about the faraway places rather than wearing my body out traveling to and from them.
As I sit here at the computer, sometimes I think about the six or seven suitcases full of camera gear and one of ski clothes that I used to have to haul around the world. I used to complain sometimes when I was dead tired and still had 300 miles to drive to get to the next resort before the lifts started the next morning and it was already after midnight. Looking back, however, which I sometimes do, I don't think I would trade a single day of making movies because every single day was a little better than the day before it.
I was always wondering, and still do wonder, what is just over the horizon. How long a trip will it be to get me to the Antarctic continent from Tierra del Fuego ski resort? Might as well go all the way to the South Pole while I am that close? Why not? I haven't been there – yet.

On June 18, Erick Duffy put his name in a few record books, and solidified his spot as the best in his field event – in the country.
Duffy cleared 17-feet-1-inch in the pole vault at the New Balance Outdoor Nationals that day, finishing first. That was good for a North Andover High School record, a Massachusetts state record and a New England record.
Duffy was not only All-American in that event, but he also missed a second All-American honor by just one spot in the shuttle hurdles relay.
Right after the Nationals, Duffy left the country for a family vacation. The Citizen timed it perfectly and by chance caught him at Logan Airport just coming back from vacation for the following exclusive Q&A.

The critical moment
Some of the world's greatest photographers tell us how they get their extraordinary images
Mary Elton Mark
I loved photography from the moment I first picked up a camera and knew my life would be devoted to it. I don't think you can develop or learn a 'way of seeing' or a 'point of view'. It's something that's inside you. It's how you look at the world. I want my photographs not only to be real but to portray the essence of my subjects, too. To do that, you have to be patient – it can't be rushed. I prefer doing portraiture on location. On a subject's home ground you pick up certain hints that tell you personal things and they come up with ideas. During a session with an animal trainer who had a massive ego, he took the trunk of his beloved elephant Shyama and wrapped it around his neck like a necklace, and of course that was my picture. I'd never have thought of something that clever.
Tina Barney
I don't know how my brain works, but I do know that I work really fast. My shoots don't vary: an hour to set up, an hour to take the shots. And the minute I walk into a room I know what I'm going to shoot, although what that is only becomes clear to me after seeing the result. So it's a subconscious process. You couldn't get those pictures in a million years if you took your time. I started taking pictures in the 1970s for all the beautiful reasons photography was known for. Then all of a sudden digital technology booms and darkrooms get annihilated from photography schools. But I really believe in the classical way. It all comes down to looking at a piece of art and dissecting it and understanding how it's put together. I think the most important thing is to go out in the world and see.
I think if you aren't fascinated by people, you'll never succeed as a portrait photographer,
because your pictures will look cold. You don't have to know anything about the people in advance of the session, you just tap into them – it's a skill. Every shoot is different and you have to alter your approach accordingly. You have to try to get into people's heads, so that they can open up to you and give you something. Sometimes we chat first, but sometimes it's good for everyone to be fresh and tense when you start out. I use the technique of being cheeky and rude or asking my subjects to do ridiculous things, but I don't set out to upset anyone. I hope the viewer sees what I see. I think two words that would describe my work well are: humour and honesty.
Mario Sorrenti
I've always tried to push the boundaries of fashion photography. After all, why should a fashion photograph only talk about clothes? Why can't it talk about something else? I want my pictures to ask questions; I want people to think. You don't need to be technically great, because if you have a strong philosophy people will be moved by your pictures regardless. The most important thing is to figure out what you want to try and say. To make your name as a photographer, you have to have a unique point of view that the viewer can recognise as yours, otherwise you'll get lost in the mix. For me, photography is about exploring – either myself or another place.
Sebastiao Salgado
It's difficult to explain why we're more attracted to certain images than others. For me, black and white photography has a certain kind of power. I'm not talking about conceptual photography but instantaneous photography, the kind that happens in a fraction of a second.

What is a miscarriage?
What are the causes of a miscarriage?
- Chromosomal abnormalities in the baby. This is the most common cause in first trimester miscarriage.
- Poor implantation in the uterus
- chronic medical illness in the mother
- Vaginal infections
- Abnormalities of the uterus or weakness of the cervix (cervical incompetence)
- Trauma to the mother
Who is at higher risk of having a miscarriage?
- Age. Older women tend to have babies with chromosomal abnormalities leading to increasing risk of miscarriage
- A history of previous miscarriages. A woman who have a history of 2 or more miscarriages or more are at increased risk of miscarriage.
- Chronic medical disorders e.g poorly controlled diabetes, polycystic ovarian syndrome, autoimmune disorders e.g antiphospholipid syndrome
- A history of birth defect or family history of congenital abnormalities
- Uterine or cervical abnormalities
- Smoking and alcohol consumption
What are the symptoms of a miscarriage?
- Having vaginal bleeding especially if it is associated with lower abdominal pain.
- Reducing symptoms of early pregnancy
- Passing out of blood clots or tissue like material from the vagina
What are the different types of miscarriages?
- Threatened miscarriage: usually there is some minimal vaginal spotting / bleeding but the neck of the womb (cervix) is closed. If the fetal heart is seen, there is a good chance that the pregnancy will progress normally. Several studies have shown that treatment with a medication called dydrogesterone could possibly improve the outcome in patients with threatened miscarriage.1
- Inevitable or incomplete miscarriage: there is lower abdominal pain associated with passing out of tissue like material vaginally. The neck of the womb (cervix) is dilated and opened. However, the product of conception is not totally expelled out from the uterus.
- Complete miscarriage: there is lower abdominal pain associated with passing out of tissue like material vaginally. However, the product of conception (POC) is completely expelled out from the uterus. After the POC is completely expelled, the vaginal bleeding and abdominal pain usually settles down.
- Missed miscarriage: the pregnancy did not developed. Your doctor will see a sac and the baby but no fetal heart is seen. Usually you will have no symptoms at all or minimal vaginal spotting with reducing of early pregnancy symptoms

Course of Ramirez's career, life changed after car accident
The course of Gilberto Ramirez's life changed when he was 18 years old.
That year a car accident totaled the vehicle he was driiving and nearly took his life. Up until that time, Ramirez, whose full name is Braulio Gilberto Ramirez, had just begun his boxing career and had not yet hit the stride he has now eight years later.
"Before that I was always fighting in the street and I was always with the gangs there," said Ramirez, who is a native of Mazatlan in the Sinaloa province of Mexico. "I was thinking to myself, I say well maybe 'God has a plan for me' and maybe he has turned me into a better person and maybe I can show the people something different."
Ramirez, 26, will fight in his 37th professional boxing event Saturday as part of the Top Rank card at the American Bank Center. Ramirez has yet to lose — he is 36-0 — as a professional and currently holds the WBO Super Middleweight title. He will defend it against Ghana's Habib Ahmed, another undefeated fighter.
Ramirez first came to know current trainer Hector Zapari and his father, Jesus, when he was 12 years old in Mazatlan. Zapari described Ramirez as undisciplined.
Zapari said with undisciplined fighters they would have them spar and many would not return. But Ramirez did. Ramirez, whose father drove a truck for Coca-Cola, worked in construction as a teenager and a story from 2016 on boxingmonthly.com said Ramirez worked in the morning for the money to get to the gym and help pay his family's bills.
Zapari said Ramirez always showed his talent but said it was hard to get Ramirez moving in the right direction. Zapari said he saw a change after the accident.
"It was very hard," Zapari said about getting Ramirez to be more disciplined, "and honestly he got the discipline because he had a car accident and his mentality changed a lot."
Ramirez is a rarity among Mexican boxers in that he is 6 feet, 2 inches tall and is left-handed or a "southpaw." It's the reason Ramirez has the nickname "Zurdo" which means left-handed in Spanish.
Ramirez moved to Los Angeles to train against different fighters, even some who are taller and weigh more than him. It's a move that has paid off as his 36-0 record and 24 knockouts attest.
"A lot of the sparring partners are taller than me and I'm sparring with a light heavyweight and a cruiserweight," Ramirez said. "They are the same height and it's good for me because I learn the different styles and different guys."
Zapari said Ramirez is very good at adapting to different fighters, citing he had a different style when he won the world title against Arthur Abraham in April of 2016 in Las Vegas and employed another style when defended it last September in Tucson against Jesse Hart.
That ability to adjust could be important against Ahmed, who Zapari and Ramirez said they do not know much about.
"He knows how to adjust and that's my job," Zapari said. "If one style doesn't work we got to another plan."
Saturday night, Ramirez will have one more chance to defend his title belt in front of what likely will be a partisan crowd. He knows he is doing something that might not have been possible a few years ago.
"I know that whatever you want to do you can do it," Ramirez said.

NJ mayor retains office after Sandy generator flap
Associated Press
NORTH HALEDON— A northern New Jersey mayor who used a town generator to power his ice cream shop during Superstorm Sandy has won re-election.
The Record (http://bit.ly/1qp2B1t) reports North Haledon Mayor Randy George turned away a challenge on Tuesday. George has been mayor for 16 years.
North Haledon voters last year elected two Democrats to the borough council for the first time since 1999. They attributed their narrow victory to George using the generator.
The Passaic County community's police chief also took a generator to his home where his 86-year-old mother was staying during Sandy.

While this "work kitchen" and variants derived from it were a great success for tenement buildings, homeowners had different demands and did not want to be constrained by a 6. 4-square-metre (69 sq ft) kitchen. Nevertheless, the kitchen design was mostly ad-hoc following the whims of the architect. In the U. S. , the "Small Homes Council", since 1993 the "Building Research Council", of the School of Architecture of the University of Illinois at Urbana–Champaign was founded in 1944 with the goal to improve the state of the art in home building, originally with an emphasis on standardization for cost reduction. It was there that the notion of the kitchen work triangle was formalized: the three main functions in a kitchen are storage, preparation, and cooking (which Catharine Beecher had already recognized), and the places for these functions should be arranged in the kitchen in such a way that work at one place does not interfere with work at another place, the distance between these places is not unnecessarily large, and no obstacles are in the way. A natural arrangement is a triangle, with the refrigerator, the sink, and the stove at a vertex each.

Ascension - It is about how we look to the future, how we move through obstacles, and eventually make it to the top. We are always looking up a flight of stairs to see what we want in life and as we climb each step we realize how much closer we are to our goals. On occasion, our lives spiral in every which way, but there will always be another step on the horizon. And when we see it, we take it.

Check Cars for Accident Damage
It's important to know how to check cars for accident damage when considering purchasing a used car. Assessing past damage will help you determine the real value of the car and detect resulting problems that could result. Here are some tips on how to detect auto accident damage.
- Obtain a vehicle history report.
- Use a vehicle history research company like Carfax to get a full report on the car's history. This file will contain a list of all past owners, insurance information and any accident reports or claims filed involving the vehicle. This will help you know what kind of damage to look for when physically inspecting the car.
- Look for fender and bumper cracks.
- Examine both ends of the vehicle and look for any cracks or patched areas. Fenders and bumpers break easily in a collision because they are often made of lightweight or plastic composite material. Breakage or repairs to the fender or bumper is a good indicator of further car accident damage.
- Check the windshield.
- Look at all windows and the front and back windshields of the car to check for vehicle accident damage. Note any chips, cracks or webbing. This could indicate that the car was involved in a collision and these areas will definitely require repairs.
- Assess the car's body lines.
- Crouch down at one end of the car so you're eye level with the body of the car. Look along the main line down the side of the car's body. This line should be straight and even and the car's paint should reflect normally. An uneven line or distorted reflection indicates that body panels of the car have been replaced or hammered out due to body damage.
- Examine panel and door gaps.
- Look at the gaps between each door and the adjoining body panel. The gaps should be straight and an even width from top to bottom. A car that has had auto accident damage will have uneven gaps due to misalignment or replaced panels or doors.
- Feel the body for filler spots.
- Run the palm of your hand down the body panels of the car and around the corners of the fender and bumper. A car with accident damage will have bumps or uneven spots from filler used to repair damaged areas.
- Check for clamp marks.
- Clamp marks around the frame of the car indicate that the car has been on a frame machine, so the car has likely sustained damage that required major repairs to the car's body after an accident.
- Look for repainting.
- Look closely along the edges of the car's doors and body panels for any nicks, scratches or uneven paint areas. Signs of a different color paint underneath could mean that the car has been repainted after an accident or that a door or panel was replaced and repainted to match the rest of the car.
