Joachim Murat was born 25 March 1767, in La Bastide-FortunièreLabastide-MuratLabastide-Murat, formerly Labastide-Fortunière is a commune in the Lot department in south-western France.

The Province of Guyenne, sometimes called the Province of Guyenne and Gascony, was a large province of pre-revolutionary France...., to Pierre Murat-Jordy, (d. 27 July 1799), an affluent farmer and an innkeeper, and his wife Jeanne Loubières (La Bastide Fortunière, b.1722 – La Bastide Fortunière, d. 11 March 1806), daughter of Pierre Loubières and of his wife Jeanne Viellescazes. His father was the son of Guillaume Murat (1692 – 1754) and wife Marguerite Herbeil (– 1755), paternal grandson of Pierre Murat, born in 1634, and wife Catherine Badourès, who died in 1697, and maternal grandson of Bertrand Herbeil and wife Anne Roques.
His parents intended he pursue a career in the church, and was taught by the parish priest, after which he won a place at the College of Saint-Michel at CahorsCahorsCahors is the capital of the Lot department in south-western France.Its site is dramatic being contained on three sides within an udder shaped twist in the river Lot known as a 'presqu'île' or peninsula... when he was ten years old. He then entered seminary of the Lazarists at ToulouseToulouseToulouse is a city in the Haute-Garonne department in southwestern FranceIt lies on the banks of the River Garonne, 590 km away from Paris and half-way between the Atlantic Ocean and the Mediterranean Sea..., but when a regiment of cavalry passed through the city in 1787, he ran away from seminary and enlisted on 23 February 1787 in the Chasseurs des Ardennes, which the following year became known as the Chasseurs de Champagne, also known as the 12th Chasseurs. In 1789, an affair forced him to resign, and he returned to his family, becoming a clerk to a haberdasher at Saint-Ceré.
By 1790, he had joined the National GuardNational Guard (France)The National Guard was the name given at the time of the French Revolution to the militias formed in each city, in imitation of the National Guard created in Paris. It was a military force separate from the regular army... and when the Fête of the Republic was organized on 14 July 1790, the Canton of Montaucon sent Murat as its representative. At that point, he managed to get himself reinstated into his old regiment. Part of the 12th Chasseurs had been sent to Montmédy as to protect the royal family on its flight to VarennesFlight to VarennesThe Flight to Varennes was a significant episode in the French Revolution during which King Louis XVI of France, his wife Marie Antoinette, and their immediate family attempted unsuccessfully to escape from Paris in order to initiate a counter-revolution..., making it necessary to for the regiment to defend its honor and loyalty to the Republic; Murat and the regiment's adjutant made a speech to the assembly at Toul to that effect. In 1792, he joined the Constitutional GuardConstitutional GuardWhen the National Constituent Assembly split on 3 September 1791, it decreed that king Louis XVI should have a Constitutional Guard, also known as the garde Brissac after its commander Louis Hercule Timolon de Cossé, duc de Brissac..., but left it that same year; his departure was attributed to various causes, including his constant quarreling and dueling, although he claimed he left to avoid punishment for being absent without leave.
An ardent Republican, Murat wrote to his brother in 1791, saying he was very preoccupied with revolutionary affairs, and would sooner die than cease to be a patriot. Upon his departure from the Constitutional Guard, he reported to the Committee of Surveillance of the Constitutional Assembly that the Guard was guilty of treason, and that his Lieutenant Colonel, a man named Descours, had encouraged him to serve in the émigré armyArmy of CondéThe Army of Condé was a French field army during the French Revolutionary Wars.

By 19 November 1792, he was 25 years old and elated at his latest promotion. As a sous-lieutenant, he thought, his family must recognize that he had no great tendency for the priesthood, and was hoping to prove that he had not been wrong in wishing to be a soldier. One of the Ministers had accused him of being an aristocrat, confusing him with the noble family of Murat d'Auvergne, an accusation that continued to haunt him for the next several years.
In the autumn of 1795, three years after King Louis XVI of FranceLouis XVI of FranceLouis XVI was a Bourbon monarch who ruled as King of France and Navarre until 1791, and then as King of the French from 1791 to 1792, before being executed in 1793.... was deposed, royalist and counter-revolutionaries organised an armed uprising. On 3 October, General Napoleon BonaparteNapoleon I of FranceNapoleon Bonaparte was a French military and political leader during the latter stages of the French Revolution.As Napoleon I, he was Emperor of the French from 1804 to 1815..., who was stationed in Paris, was named commander of the French National Convention's defending forces. This constitutional convention, after a long period of emergency rule, was striving to establish a more stable and permanent government in the uncertain period after the Reign of TerrorReign of TerrorThe Reign of Terror , also known simply as The Terror , was a period of violence that occurred after the onset of the French Revolution, incited by conflict between rival political factions, the Girondins and the Jacobins, and marked by mass executions of "enemies of.... Bonaparte tasked Murat with the gathering of artillery from a suburb outside the control of the government's forces. Murat managed to take the cannons of the Camp des Sablons and transport them to the centre of Paris while avoiding the rioters. The use of these cannons on 4 October allowed Bonaparte to save the members of the National ConventionNational ConventionDuring the French Revolution, the National Convention or Convention, in France, comprised the constitutional and legislative assembly which sat from 20 September 1792 to 26 October 1795 . It held executive power in France during the first years of the French First Republic.... For this success Joachim Murat was made chef de brigade (colonel) and thereafter remained one of Napoleon's best officers.
In 1796, with the situation in the capital and government apparently stabilised and the war going poorly (See also: French Revolutionary WarsFrench Revolutionary WarsThe French Revolutionary Wars were a series of major conflicts, from 1792 until 1802, fought between the French Revolutionary government and several European states...), Napoleon lobbied to join the armies attempting to secure the revolution against the invading monarchist forces. Murat then went with Bonaparte to northern Italy, initially as his aide-de-camp, and was later named commander of the cavalry during the many campaigns against the Austrians and their allies. These forces were waging war on France and seeking to restore a monarchy in revolutionary France. His valour and his daring cavalry charges later earned him the rank of généralGénéralGénéral is the French word for General.In France, Army generals are named after the type of unit they command. In ascending order there are two ranks :* Général de brigade : Brigade General.* Général de division : Divisional General.... in these important campaigns, the battles of which became famous as Bonaparte constantly used speed of maneuver to fend off and eventually defeat individually superior opposing armies closing in on the French forces from several directions. Thus, Murat's skills in no small part helped establish Bonaparte's legendary fame and enhance his popularity with the French people.
Murat commanded the cavalry of the French Egyptian expedition of 1798, again under Bonaparte. The expedition's strategic goal was to threaten Britain's rich holdings in India. (Some had been taken from France during the Seven Years' WarSeven Years' WarThe Seven Years' War was a global military war between 1756 and 1763, involving most of the great powers of the time and affecting Europe, North America, Central America, the West African coast, India, and the Philippines...). However, the overall effort ended prematurely because of lack of logistical support with the defeat of the French fleet due to British sea power (See: Battle of the NileBattle of the NileThe Battle of the Nile was a major naval battle fought between British and French fleets at Aboukir Bay on the Mediterranean coast of Egypt from 1–3 August 1798...). After the sea battle, Napoleon led his troops on land toward Europe (via Palestine and thence Ottoman Turkey), but was recalled by the Directory (at least in part) as it feared an invasion by Britain. Abbé Sieyès also saw Bonaparte as an ally against a resurgent Jacobin movement, and so the expeditionary army was turned over to a subordinate.
The remaining non-military expedition staff officers, including Murat, and Bonaparte returned to France, eluding various British fleets in five frigateFrigateA frigate is any of several types of warship, the term having been used for ships of various sizes and roles over the last few centuries.In the 17th century, the term was used for any warship built for speed and maneuverability, the description often used being "frigate-built"...s. A short while later, Murat played an important, even pivotal, role in Bonaparte's 'coup within a coup' of 18 Brumaire18 BrumaireThe coup of 18 Brumaire was the coup d'état by which General Napoleon Bonaparte overthrew the French Directory, replacing it with the French Consulate...

When the fatal moment arrived, Murat walked with a firm step to the place of execution, as calm, as unmoved, as if he had been going to an ordinary review. He would not accept a chair, nor suffer his eyes to be bound. "I have braved death (said he) too often to fear it." He stood upright, proudly and undauntedly, with his countenance towards the soldiers; and when all was ready, he kissed a cameo on which the head of his wife was engraved, and gave the word — thus, « Soldats ! Faites votre devoir ! Droit au cœur mais épargnez le visage. Feu ! »

Singapore High Court dismisses petition to vacate ruling against Bloomberry Resorts for wrongful termination of William Weidner firm :博讯头条-全方位博彩新闻网站 |
Singapore High Court dismisses petition to vacate ruling against Bloomberry Resorts for wrongful termination of William Weidner firm
The Singapore High Court has dismissed a petition from Bloomberry Resorts Corporation subsidiaries Sureste Properties Inc
The Singapore High Court has dismissed a petition from Bloomberry Resorts Corporation subsidiaries Sureste Properties Inc. (SPI) and Bloomberry Resorts & Hotels Inc. (BRHI) to vacate and oppose a 2016 arbitration tribunal finding that the termination of a Management Services Agreement with Global Gaming Asset Management (GGAM) Philippines LLC was wrongful.
The original finding, referred to as the Partial Award of the Arbitration Tribunal, relates to the termination of the Management Services Agreement, originally signed in 2011, just six months after the March 2013 opening of Manila's Solaire Resort & Casino.
After the Singapore courts subsequently found the termination wrongful – affirming in the process GGAM's ownership of and right to sell 921,184,056 shares it held in Bloomberry – the Philippines IR operator filed a petition to vacate the Partial Award alleging "fraudulent concealment and misrepresentations by GGAM" by signing the agreement to manage Solaire while two of its executives, including Weidner, were being investigated by US authorities for violations of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA). Weidner was President and COO of Las Vegas Sands until parting ways in 2009 following a falling out with the company's Chairman and CEO Sheldon Adelson.
In a Monday filing, Bloomberry said the petition to vacate had been dismissed due to the Court finding that the FCPA investigations "do not constitute strong and cogent evidence of any species of fraud" raised by SPI and BRHI against GGAM. The company has until 3 February 2020 to appeal to a higher Singapore court.
This latest ruling comes after a Singapore arbitration tribunal ordered Bloomberry to pay damages totaling US$296 million to GGAM as part of the related Final Award. Bloomberry has also filed a petition to vacate and oppose the Final Award, although it says that Award is not enforceable unless confirmed by a Philippines court.

The right way to Plan being married | Cables and Utilities Detection Services
Your wedding is just about the biggest and a lot https://mailorderbridecomparison.com/slavic-countries/russia/ important party proceeding ever throw so learning how to plan a marriage can seem rather daunting in the beginning (and specifically so for anybody who is planning a very small, intimate marriage around all the hubbub of a metropolis! ). Yet regardless of how you want your wedding, the fundamental steps usually remain precisely the same: Find enthusiasm, set price range, get some specialist advice, do a list, and then stay with it! After that, anything else will fall under place.
Hence let's consider the first step: Getting inspiration. The best place to commence searching for ideas is online. Go on wedding websites, blogs, message boards – you name it! And as quickly as you'll found some ideas you can possibly draw from all of them (using the resources available) or start drafting your have, based on the theme and venue of your dreams.
Once you've got a solid idea of what you would like to achieve, really time to move through your directory. Remember, this really is your dream marriage and you should have the final declare on every feature, so make sure you've ticked each field. Important items on your from a caterer should include the venue(s), wedding invitations, decoration, wedding caterers, entertainment, digital photography, etc . Be sure you make sure that all of these are planned and confirmed ahead of the date!
Step 2 on your big day planning directory is to get started with the planning. In previous planning content I've highlighted different options for how to schedule a wedding and I encourage you to check them out if perhaps they're best for you (or in the event they fit in with your budget). For instance , there are some very helpful online resources that will help organise your seating data properly so that you don't face any kind of problems on the day. Check out the Chair Yourself From a caterer if you want for starters with your seats arrangements even sooner. This is also a great place to find out about additional great recommendations such as getting married overseas.
And finally, discussing touch to the fun parts. The fun areas of any big day are the ones activities that will aid your guests remember your special day. To assist with this kind of, don't forget to house the guests list – make sure you maintain your guest quantities high, usually you may be overcome trying to find with capacity of for everyone. And finally, once the day is set as well as the reception happens to be organised, get yourself a professional wedding ceremony planner (preferably one with an excellent record record). Arranging a wedding isn't an easy work and you need someone to take care of the details for you personally who can take charge and arrange everything from getting the venue arranged, to ensuring that you have enough staff at the reception, to getting your guest volumes right and more. A good specialist wedding adviser will be able to take care of most of these to suit your needs can only focus on enjoying yourself on your special day.
So as you can observe, there's lots of decisions to make when arranging ways to plan a marriage but the good news is all the work is often straightforward. The key is to make sure you the actual basics and begin with the formal procedure. Then you can take into account the colour scheme, meals, decorations, photography and catering. It can be necessary not to believe too much about how precisely the wedding basically takes place when needed, as this will likely lead you to procrastination. Planning is a superb deal much easier that way.

Aquarelles argentiques
Haptic experiences, glance into the soul
Robert Marcel Becker suggests new possibilities to visualise haptic plasticity in an expressive manner. Apart from his central theme, the "eye", he has also found his own characteristic language of style.
It is said that 'the face is the window of the soul' ("The eyes are the window of the soul"). In the oeuvre of Robert Marcel Becker the eye becomes the window to the soul. He abstracts the body and in his mind there is only room for one dominating eye, which seems to follow us for a long time. Each of his works is an "Aventure" an expedition into a new world, into a new eye. This is similar to an inscription that has to be deciphered. His "eyes" have an appealing effect and attract the observer. They are omnipresent and hypnotising.
"My work" he says "should remain open enough to leave room for individual interpretations. The exhaustless diversity of human eyes attracts again and again and this combined with the power of attraction of iron, allows visual fascinations to emerge."
The sculptures of Robert Marcel Becker are ageless They are classic and modern in one. The contrast between the simple appearance and the complex content is surprising.You feel that the progression/chronologie of each of the steps in the process of creation is not impulsive. You feel his full passion, his presence in almost all of his pieces. He has a huge capacity of ideas and he surprises again and again with something new.
The source of his inspiration seems inexhaustable. Robert Marcel Becker is an artist to watch.
Since the oeuvre of Robert Marcel Becker is extensive we have selected some representative pieces of all the various techniques, periods and themes to show the richness and diversity of his oeuvre.

Video: Burnley man gets legs waxed to raise funds for Pendleside Hospice - Burnley Express
Undergoing 15 minutes of pain in the name of charity, a Business First employee has had his legs waxed as part of the company's Corporate Challenge in aid of Pendleside Hospice, raising almost £150 in the process.
With the waxing performed free of charge by Claire from Glamour, who are based in the building as well, the sight of a grown man screeching as he had his legs waxed on a hospital gurney-esque bed certainly inspired a few donations. With the centre also holding a raffle of prizes donated by the company's head office, a grand total of £141.10 was raised.

I used a liter of water and ice when making it. The initial taste is just like any ice tea drink mix. It's perfect and no aftertaste in my mouth which is nice. It's quite enjoyable on a hot day.
Kleigh – August 17, 2020
My favourite. Felt a nice happy buzz when drank with a few of the vegan gummies. Enjoyable over ice on a hot day. Better than an alcoholic beverage IMO.

Beverages | Free Full-Text | Consumer Evaluation of Processing Variants of Pomegranate Juice
, Kadri Koppel * and Edgar Chambers IV
Academic Editor: Jeehyun Lee

Increasing evidence of their health benefits has boosted the popularity of pomegranates. The effects of processing (e.g., pasteurization, drying) on pomegranate juice characteristics (e.g., color, phenolic content) and sensory attributes have been studied by several authors. The objectives of this study were to (1) understand if processing, such as pasteurization or drying, has an effect on pomegranate juice acceptance, and (2) if acceptance is related to healthy eating habits or variety seeking tendencies. Arils were removed from fresh Wonderful pomegranates for juicing or drying. Four treatments were prepared: fresh, fresh frozen, pasteurized, and reconstituted juice from dried arils. Fresh frozen, pasteurized, and reconstituted juices were evaluated by consumers for acceptance. Cluster analysis was conducted and four consumer clusters were found from evaluation of these juice treatments. Each juice was individually disliked by one of three clusters, demonstrating the effect of processing on acceptance. The fourth and largest cluster liked all three treatments. In addition, the consumers were asked to fill in Stage of Change and Variety Seeking scales. Liking scores were not found to be highly associated with healthy eating habits or variety seeking tendencies. This information is beneficial for the fruit processing industry, showing that processing can influence consumer acceptance. View Full-Text

Worthplaying | Xbox 360 Preview - 'Too Human'
Xbox 360 Preview - 'Too Human'
by Brad Hilderbrand on Feb. 24, 2008 @ 6:37 a.m. PST
A lot of speculation has gone into the fate of Too Human, the newest title from Silicon Knights that hasn't even sniffed store shelves yet. It's one of Microsoft's big spring titles, so gamers have been waiting with bated breath for a game that plans to mesh Norse mythology with a sci-fi storyline. After a less-than-stellar E3 showing in 2006, details have slowed to a trickle, and recently at GDC, Microsoft decided to finally pull back the curtain on their new baby. What they revealed is a title that will likely delight fans of games like Mass Effect, but will unlikely be able to knock the collective gaming world on its knees.
The little bit of story information we have on Too Human is this that you play as the cybernetically enhanced god Baldur, sent to Earth to help the Aesir battle the Emir. The Aesir have used cybernetics to augment their natural abilities, while the Emir created machines to carry on war for them. Assuming they could defeat the Emir once and for all, the Aesir detonated several nuclear weapons and plunged the world into a new global Ice Age, termed Thimble Winter. However, the plan didn't truly work because while the Emir were destroyed, their machines fight on.
When starting out, players can select one of five character classes (Berserker, Bioengineer, Champion, Commando and Defender), with more to be made available via downloadable content. Each class has its own strengths and weaknesses, so that Berserkers are pure melee fighters while Bioengineers are healers and mages. There is no traditional mana system, but defeated enemies drop health refills and "mana fuel." Once you lock in your character, the skill tree becomes available, with specific skills available to each class. This system lends to obvious replay opportunities, and I'm willing to put money on several Achievements being unlocked through playing with different character classes. This is one aspect of the title where the similarities to Mass Effect are more than obvious.
Combat in the game is done in real time, with both melee and ranged elements. In the demo, Baldur was able to juggle foes with dual pistols from afar, and then dash in close to hack them with his sword. There is no ammo per se, but instead your ranged weapons recharge over time. However, if you aren't playing with a specific character class, guns are pretty weak, so you're going to have to wade in there and get down and dirty with the bad guys. Wading into fights will be a heart-pumping experience, as Silicon Knights is promising to have anywhere between 50 to 70 enemies onscreen at a time, with each having its own unique AI that will strategize the best way to attack you.
As you progress through Too Human, the story unfolds in a couple of different ways. Obviously, the events taking place currently shape your understanding of the situation, but there is also an elaborate flashback system, in which Baldur delves into cyberspace, a virtual world that takes him back to the way the planet was before the Thimble Winter. During these sequences, Baldur gains access to new abilities, and interacting with items such as doors and levers in cyberspace will have an implications on what's happening in the real world.
In addition to learning powers in cyberspace, Baldur can also pick up runes and items to further augment his power. Collecting loot sets actually grants the player an even greater attribute bonus, so there's a lot of reward for the thorough explorer. All of this item collection may sound like a headache, but the whole thing is streamlined through an auto-salvage system that, when turned on, will automatically convert your worst items into cash.
Microsoft has been touting the Too Human's visuals, and it is nice to see a title where there's nary a load screen beyond the initial start-up. The graphics are nice but not overwhelming, as some time has passed since the 2006 unveiling, and a couple of years are an eon in game development time. The game's sound is functional, with a nice score and a lot of teammate chatter.
Microsoft is staking quite a bit on Too Human and has already laid out plans to present the IP as a trilogy. In order for that to happen, it's going to have to break out of the Mass Effect shadow and show why it's a stellar game in its own right. This is definitely a title to keep your eye on, and Microsoft is promising a playable demo on Xbox Live later this spring. If the demo manages to really shine, then the title will likely go straight to the top of the must-buy list.

Good Morning, I have a question, since you know so much fashion, because they put their name to the models? Some I've seen you do in options are names that you do not forget, Candice, Adriana Lima and all that kind of women, who scantily clad generl out. I tell you that the brunette that you have in your Primroses image is called Raica Oliveira and Brazilian origin. Thank you. Best regards

Market trends in 2020 for real estate in Canada | Agent360.ca
Holiday season is here. And so is the end of the year. It's also high time that while you drown yourself in seasonal festivities, you should also start making your real estate marketing and sales plan for 2020.
Listing down your assets will be a great start: Do I have a real estate website? If I do, does it have IDX listing? Is it search engine optimized? Do I have a lead generation plan to bring in high-quality leads? And manage leads and their status once they start coming in?
If you can answer those, it's a great beginning. Meanwhile, you can prepare yourself with key insights about Canadian real estate industry. Canadian Real Estate Association (CREA) has predicted lower sales for 2020. Although such estimates depend on multitudes of factors and one detail can change the number significantly, it's advisable to know what industry experts are saying.
We cover the key predictions for 2020 and their implications for real estate agents in Canada.
Which markets will be hot
"This year's Canadian real estate trends are about navigating uncertainty" reads the report Emerging Trends in Real Estate 2020 report by PwC.
According to the same report, Toronto and Vancouver will again lead in terms of real estate investments. In the PwC report, Toronto went ahead Vancouver to become the top market to watch. However, Vancouver, expected to grow at 2.3% in 2020, will still be the hottest market for retail as well as commercial investment.
What will affect different property types
Condos and Single-family residential
Affordability is going to be the most pressing factor influencing real estate market in 2020.
That said, the scenario across the country is still too wide to categorize. For instance, while in Toronto single family house affordability is difficult, international migration makes the city highly lucrative for selling condominiums to millenials and young couples. Since 2007, most of the hottest markets in Canada have seen an increase in under-construction condo inventory, up 35%. And this is even when pricing of condominiums have been rising without leash.
Pricing in some markets that enjoy better affordability will remain tight. Maritimes, Quebec and Manitoba are prime examples. For single-family residential, although concern is rising about the sheer number of new condo projects in major urban centres, demand will remain strong as long as population growth and economic expansion continue and house prices remain out of reach for so many.
The market of office inventories is expected to be a regional story--as it had been in the past. In almost all the markets in Canada, it will be driven by tenant expectations. Developers of office complex, on the other hand, planning ahead for the years. For instance, unlike the past, they are not focusing on parking anymore, responding to millenials reliance on ride-sharing and car rentals.
On the other hand, retail sector will continue to face disruptions. Rental models and coworking spaces had a major impact on retail sector in 2018 and will continue to do so. Many owners are trying to shift towards this model and their success will depend upon right location and customer acquisition channels? They would need a mix model of digital media, to generate online leads, and traditional method to get foot traffic.
This forecast will give you a heads-up on where to invest, which sectors and markets offer the best prospects, and trends in the capital markets that will affect real estate.
Notably, the new federal mortgage stress test was intended to keep home sales in check, and will succeed in doing so through to 2020.

Remember our bowed living room floor? About a month after that post, the Floor Man returned to start work on leveling the floor. I just didn't get around to posting about it.
Not only was the floor lower around the edges than in the middle, it was softer, too. Back in those days, in this modest area, they didn't waste the good wood on the whole floor. They figured the middle section would be covered with a rug so the prime wood was only for the part that would peek out around the edges.
It just occurred to me that that may be the reason the floor settled differently, two different kinds of wood.

In November of 2014 Luka was diagnosed with a liver tumor. This tumor was likely caused by him being poisoned 18 months before. Several dogs in my neighborhood were poisoned and Luka was the only one that survived (thanks to a very expensive week in the ICU). The perpetrator was never caught. I was blindingly angry for awhile but I realized at some point that I’m somewhat grateful he/she was never caught as I may have done something to that person to land myself on the wrong side of the law.
My ornery boy was an overachiever until the end. When he was diagnosed two different vets told me he had 3 months to live. If I was lucky. He lived 7 1/2 months. I’m most happy that he was symptom free and his usual bouncy self until the last couple of days. We had so many adventures those last months. I’m actually grateful that I knew his time was drawing to a close because we did things I otherwise would never have done: visiting the dog park in sub zero weather, hiking in a torrential rain storm, going to the swimming hole twice a weekend, etc.
He was only 9 (maybe 10) years old when he died and still completely active. I was determined to pack as much as possible into those last months. I think I succeeded. This picture was taken during that time and completely captures his personality.
When Luka died Sadie was 12 years old, slowing down and starting to accumulate various health challenges. Our trips to the dog park became a little bit of walking and a lot of sitting together in the sunshine, watching the other dogs play. We also started spending afternoons at parks relaxing beneath a tree. Around the time she became 13 it was nearly impossible to get her into/out of the car so we became homebodies and spent our hours quietly hanging out at home. While it’s always sad to see a dog lose their mobility, I’m always grateful that they’ve lived long enough to become elderly. There is something so sweet about an old dog.
Since that awful day last April I’ve been trying to figure out who I am since for the last 19 years I’ve had one (and usually two or three) dogs. For various reasons, I have not adopted another dog and do not plan to do so in the foreseeable future. I’m sure I’ll one day own another dog, but it’s going to take some time. Sadie’s death broke me in ways I never thought possible. I’ve loved and adored all of my dogs, but she was different. She was special. At this point, no dog can live up to the legend of my sweet Sadie.
Now I will bring this knitting Sadie and Luka blog to a close. Thank you to everyone who read and commented over the years. I appreciated each and every word you wrote. I’ve thought about my regular readers over the past few years and have wondered how you are doing. If anyone is still blogging or active in other ways online feel free to leave a comment or drop me a line (runswithneedles at gmail dot com).
One of the tragic things I know about human nature is that all of us tend to put off living. We are all dreaming of some magical rose garden over the horizon – instead of enjoying the roses that are blooming outside our windows today. ~ Dale Carnegie
It’s been an odd summer in my neck of the woods. The combination of an epic wildfire (which closed many of my favorite hiking spots) and unbearable heat has meant the dogs and I have been a bit lacking in our outdoor adventures.
The dogs and I returned to the ‘ole swimming hole today. To say it was a smashing success is an understatement.
Shortly after we arrived home the thunderstorms arrived. Luka settled in the chair in the front of the window and watched the rain fall.
I haven’t taken a lot of pictures on our weekend adventures lately. I’ve been too busy enjoying the scenery.
On today’s hike the sky was a beautiful blue and the sun was shining brightly. It was the perfect day to take portraits of the dogs.
Nothing’s better than the wind to your back, the sun in front of you, and your friends beside you. ~ Aaron Douglas Trimble
After a chilly week the weekend dawned sunny, clear (and most importantly): warm (in the 50’s!). The dogs and I took advantage of the break in the weather to check out some new hiking trails.

Notebook: Harvin saw opening on film - Minnesota - Scout
Notebook: Harvin saw opening on filmJohn Holler10/17/2010Percy Harvin said his 95-yard kickoff return for a touchdown was simply a matter of opportunity. It was the first time he got a kick down the middle of the field on Sunday and he took advantage of it. See what he had to say about the play and get more than three dozen notes that help tell the story of the game.
If there is such a thing as the reigning NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year flying under the radar, Percy Harvin has been such a player. With the spotlight being shared with Hall of Famers Brett Favre and Randy Moss and potential Hall of Famer Adrian Peterson, Harvin hasn't been able to find his own place in the sun in a tumultuous start to the 2010 season.
That changed in a big way Sunday. With the Vikings trailing 14-7 at halftime of Sunday's game with the Dallas Cowboys, the team was flat and needed an infusion of momentum. Harvin provided that with an electrifying 95-yard kickoff return for a touchdown to tie the game and get the Metrodome crowd in a deafening tizzy.
Harvin said the return team has been frustrated because they have been an eyelash away from breaking off a couple of potential touchdown returns only to have a fingertip tackle bringing Harvin down before he hits the open field. He said the timing of the return couldn't have been better and it clearly turned the tide of the game.
While Harvin made the mad dash to the end zone, he said it wouldn't have been possible without perfectly executed blocking.
"We were more worried about whether the kicker was going to put in a good spot," Harvin said. "He did and we took it back. The blockers did a great job and I hit a seam. I knew it was going to open up. I wasn't sure if the kicker was going to clog the hole up. Our blockers were able to get ahead of him and I was able to shoot through there. A lot of the credit goes to those guys up front."
Head coach Brad Childress said the Vikings desperately needed a spark and Harvin infused the entire team with energy with his return. When asked if the return gave the Vikings the lift they needed, Childress said few plays in football are a demoralizing as a return for a touchdown.
"It always does," Childress said of the boost the sideline got from the score. "Randy (Moss) said something about bringing your own energy coming out of the locker room. I think (the Dallas offense was) on the field twice as long as we were in the first half. We didn't have anything going. We had the one turnover and we scored points off it. There's no better energy than a return for a score."
Harvin said the Vikings had seen something in film study that they thought they could exploit, but early on – between squib kicks and directional kickoffs – they never got the opportunity. When kicker David Buehler booted the second half kickoff down the middle of the field, Harvin knew he had his chance.
"We tried to get it earlier in the game, but the kicker kept putting the ball too far to the sideline," Harvin said. "Everything just worked out for the best and those 10 guys, they did a great job and I did the easy part."
The magnitude of the play was enormous for the psyche of the Vikings, who needed a big play to revive their 2010 season. The team needed a spark to light the fire and Harvin was the one who brought it, not the other galaxy of stars on the Vikings roster.
"It was huge for us," Harvin said. "We know we've got a tough couple of games coming up and it was good for us to kind of get in the flow of things. We did that. We're going to come in tomorrow, fix up whatever we need to do and keep it rolling."
The Vikings won the game, but you wouldn't tell it by looking at the final numbers. Dallas had 314 total yards to just 188 for the Vikings, ran 60 plays to the Vikings' 50, had almost a four-and-a-half-minute advantage in time of possession and a better red zone proficiency. Yet, as they have found ways to do more often than not this season, they still lost. Thanks to three sacks of Favre, the Vikings had more rushing yards (95) than passing yards (93) Sunday. Both teams were among the best in the league in third-down defense, but both allowed the opposing offense to covert 50 percent or more of their third-down opportunities. Dallas converted nine of 17 third downs (53 percent) and, on one of the third downs in which they failed, they converted on fourth down. The Vikings offense made good on six of 12 third downs (50 percent). Dallas once again killed itself with stupid penalties. Averaging 11 penalties a game, the Cowboys had a typical day – committing 11 penalties for 91 yards. As frustrating as the penalties were, it was what they represented that was the killer. A 68-yard touchdown to Miles Austin was negated by a penalty and a holding call on a fourth-quarter punt return with the game tied 21-21 put the ball back in the Dallas 14-yard line, negating a 34-yard punt return by Dez Bryant that would have put the Cowboys on the Vikings 42-yard line. Three plays later, E.J. Henderson got the interception that would result in the game-winning points. Favre's 118 passing yards were the fewest since his Vikings debut, when he threw for just 110 yards against Cleveland. Favre had his first game without an interception this season, completing 14 of 19 passes for 118 yards with one touchdown and a passer rating of 106.9. Tony Romo completed 22 of 34 passes for 220 yards with three touchdowns, two interceptions and a passer rating of 98.4. Peterson had 24 carries for 73 yards – more than two yards below his season average, but scored his fourth touchdown – remaining tied with Harvin for the team lead. The combination of Felix Jones and Marion Barber combined to rush 24 times for just 64 yards.
Moss led all Vikings receivers with five catches for 55 yards. Felix Jones led the Cowboys with 10 receptions for 61 yards. Roy Williams scored two touchdowns and Bryant scored the other TD, but the running backs had 15 of Dallas' 24 receptions. In the second half, Dallas had the ball six times. Five of those drives had three plays or fewer. The Vikings linebackers were extremely active Sunday due to the short passing game of the Cowboys. Chad Greenway had 12 tackles (eight solo), E.J. Henderson had nine tackles (four solo) and two interceptions and Ben Leber had seven tackles (five solo). CB Antoine Wiufield added 10 tackles (eight solo). The Vikings didn't have a sack Sunday. The final play of the game was reminiscent of the Cal-Stanford game and took the official league scoring summary several minutes to dissect. On a typical play, it will give the principals and the direction and distance. For example, a typical play would go something like this "B. Favre pass short left to R. Moss to DAL 26 for 9 yards (T. Newman). The final play of the game read as follows: "T. Romo pass short right to F. Jones to DAL 40 for 14 yards. Lateral to R. Williams to DAL 32 for -8 yards. Lateral to T. Romo to DAL 43 for 11 yards. T. Romo pass short right to M. Austin to DAL 40 for -3 yards. Lateral to J. Witten to DAL 34 for -6 yards. Lateral to D. Bryant to 50 for 16 yards. FUMBLES, RECOVERED by MIN-C. Greenway at DAL 39. C. Greenway to DAL 39 for no gain (T. Romo). In the end, the Romo pass was forward and would have resulted in a penalty had the Cowboys somehow scored. Romo ended up with a bizarre stat line thanks to that play, having zero receptions for 11 yards. Both Barber and Peterson have yet to be stopped on third-and-1 rushing attempts. Barber was 4-for-4 on third-and-one conversions Sunday, while Peterson was 3-for-3. After being dominated in the first half, the Vikings owned the third quarter. They ran 16 plays to eight for Dallas, outgained the Cowboys 97-13 and outscoring Dallas 14-0. Jim Kleinsasser showed some moves on a strange play in the third quarter. Favre dropped the snap and, when the defender assigned to Kleinsasser left him to go after the loose ball, the tight end was wide open and rumbled 20 yards, making safety Gerald Sensabaugh look sick with a fake to the outside and cutback to the inside, leaving the safety grabbing air. Harvin gave the Vikings a huge spark to start the second half when he raced 95 yards for a touchdown on the opening kick of the half. For Harvin, it was the third return touchdown of his short, 20-game career. It tied him for the franchise record with three career returns for touchdowns and gives him two of the six longest kickoff returns for a touchdown, and he became the first Viking to score multiple kickoff return touchdowns. Dallas dominated the second quarter, holding the ball for 11 minutes, 26 seconds to have a huge time-of-possession disparity at halftime (19:30 to 10:30 for the Vikings). Dallas had 190 total yards (115 passing, 75 rushing) to just 60 for the Vikings (36 rushing, 22 passing). In the second quarter, the Cowboys ran 19 plays, as opposed to just seven for the Vikings. Individually in the first half, Favre completed six of seven passes for 47 yards and a touchdown, for a passer rating of 134.2. Peterson had nine carries for 38 yards, and Harvin was the only player with more than one catch, hauling in three for 21 yards. For Dallas, Romo completed 13 of 17 passes for 115 yards with two touchdowns, one interception and a passer rating of 108.7. Romo was also the leading rusher, taking off three times for 31 yards, while Barber and Jones combined for 16 carries for 44 yards. Jones was the leading receiver with five catches for 40 yards. Williams had just two catches for 17 yards, but both were touchdowns. In the first half, Favre dropped to pass 10 times. He was hit eight times and sacked on three of those plays. Husain Abdullah suffered a head injury in the second quarter. He did not return to the game. Jamarca Sanford replaced him.
Dallas starting left guard Kyle Kosier was injured in the second quarter, which was reported to be an Achilles injury, and didn't come back. With the Vikings in field goal range in the second quarter, a critical sack by DeMarcus Ware pushed the Vikings out of field goal range and forced them to punt – a mistake that likely took three points away from the Vikings. Favre admitted he should have thrown the ball away to keep them in field goal position.
Eight of Romo's first 11 completions were screen passes to his running backs, an offensive model the Cowboys stuck with the entire game. Austin had an electrifying 68-yard TD nullified due to an offensive pass interference penalty. The Cowboys' top deep threat was limited to just two catches for 12 yards Sunday. In the first quarter, the Cowboys dominated the major statistics. They outgained the Vikings 70-39, allowing the Vikings just 39 yards on 13 offensive plays. Individually, Favre completed five of six passes in the first quarter for 45 yards and a touchdown for a passer rating of 137.5. Peterson had five carries for just three yards. Harvin was the only Viking with more than one reception, catching two passes for 19 yards. For the Cowboys, Romo completed five of eight passes for 37 yards with one touchdown, one interception and a passer rating of 73.4. Barber and Jones combined to carry eight times for just 21 yards. Four different Cowboys caught passes in the first quarter. On the last play of the first quarter, Favre threw a touchdown to Greg Camarillo. Not only was it Camarillo's first TD as a Viking, he became the 60th different player to catch a touchdown pass from No. 4. The Cowboys have been victimized by stupid penalties that have hurt the team throughout the early part of the season. Sunday was no exception. After scoring the first points of the game, Austin was penalized for excessive celebration – the second straight week Dallas was called for a celebration penalty following a TD. To complicate matters, kicker David Buehler kicked the ensuing kickoff out of bounds, giving the Vikings the ball on the Dallas 45-yard line to open their second drive of the game. The first Vikings drive of the game looked solid as the team converted a couple of first downs with Peterson runs. But, after crossing midfield, Peterson and Favre botched an exchange. It was ruled as an aborted play and Favre was charged with the fumble, keeping Peterson officially fumble-free this season. Dallas converted the turnover into a touchdown to take a 7-0 lead.
When the Vikings offense took the field for the first time, the fans starting chanting "Randy! Randy!" in tribute to Moss making his Metrodome return. Minnesota Twins star Michael Cuddyer sounded the ceremonial Gjallarhorn to bring the Vikings out onto the field.

Cardinals send LHP Jaime Garcia to Braves for 3 prospects | Metro News
Cardinals send LHP Jaime Garcia to Braves for 3 prospects
By: Charles Odum The Associated Press Published on
ATLANTA — The Atlanta Braves made another move in the dramatic off-season retooling of their rotation on Thursday by acquiring left-hander Jaime Garcia from the St. Louis Cardinals.
The Cardinals got a trio of prospects, including second baseman Luke Dykstra, the son of former All-Star Lenny Dykstra. The Cardinals also landed right-handers John Gant and Chris Ellis.
Tied for the fewest wins in the NL this season, the Braves began to reconstruct their 2017 rotation by recently agreeing to one-year deals with veteran right-handers R.A. Dickey and Bartolo Colon.
Garcia's $12 million option for 2017 was recently exercised by the Cardinals. Like Dickey and Colon, Garcia could be a bridge to young pitching prospects. Julio Teheran returns as a fixture atop the rotation. Among other candidates for the rotation are Mike Foltynewicz, Josh Collmenter and Matt Wisler.
Braves general manager John Coppolella said he the team had interest in Garcia long before the off-season deal.
"We had targeted him for a number of years and feel he will be an impactful part of a revamped rotation," Coppolella told The Associated Press. "It was tough to trade away three kids we really liked, but we want to win and we want to create competition for our young pitchers. I spoke with Jaime and he's feeling great and really excited about this opportunity."
The Braves are moving into new suburban SunTrust Park in 2017.
Garcia has spent his entire injury-interrupted career with the Cardinals, going 62-45 with a 3.57 ERA. He was third in rookie of the year voting in 2010, went 13-7 the following season while helping St. Louis win the World Series, and threw 171 2/3 innings last season — the second-most of his career.
But the 30-year-old with a history of shoulder trouble was also just 10-13 with a 4.67 ERA last season, and a glut of starting pitchers made him expendable. The Cardinals are expected to have Lance Lynn back after missing last season to an elbow injury, and Adam Wainwright, Carlos Martinez, Mike Leake and rookie Alex Reyes are expected to solidify the rotation.
The Cardinals also plan to have Michael Wacha start again, and general manager John Mozeliak has indicated former closer Trevor Rosenthal could be stretched out to start.
By trading Garcia and his $12 million option for next season, the Cardinals gain the financial flexibility to chase down an outfielder, their biggest remaining hole. They already shored by their bullpen by signing left-handed reliever Brett Cecil to a four-year, $30.5 million contract.
The 21-year-old Dykstra, a seventh-round pick of the Braves in 2014, hit .304 in 81 games for Class-A Rome. He was voted an All-Star in the South Atlantic League.
He may have the biggest name recognition, but the two pitching prospects may offer more upside.
The 24-year-old Gant debuted with Atlanta last season, making seven starts and going 1-4 with a 4.86 ERA in 20 games. He also made 12 appearances for Triple-A Gwinnett, going 3-3 with a 4.18 ERA.
Ellis made 28 starts for Gwinnett and Double-A Mississippi, going 12-9 with a 4.49 ERA. The 6-foot-5, 220-pound right-hander was a third-round draft pick of the Angels in 2014.
The Braves also have signed utility player Sean Rodriguez, who played for Pittsburgh the last two years, to an $11.5 million, two-year contract and acquired outfield prospect Alex Jackson, the No. 6 overall pick of the 2014 amateur draft, from Seattle for right-handers Rob Whalen and Max Povse. Jackson may be given an opportunity to play catcher, his high school position.

Taking the Lid off the Sun: I Caught Myself
I almost fell prey to old habits the other day. You know, the old habits of saying, "No, don't do that or I'll take away your ___." (Insert object of manipulation.)
It was snack time, and Lucas decided to put some of his Puffins cereal bites into his cup of water. I'm a big stickler for table manners, and loading our water cups with food is just not comfortable for me. I instinctively began to say, "No, Lucas, don't put your Puffins in your water; We don't put food in our water," … but then I stopped.
I thought through how that scenario would likely play itself out: I'd say no. He'd want to keep doing it. How would I get him to stop? By manipulation, threat or coercion, right? But I'm trying to avoid those tactics and be more respectful of him after reading Alfie Kohn's book, Unconditional Parenting.
I decided to reconsider my request. After all, why didn't I want him to do put his Puffins in his water? Was it because I didn't want to clean up a certain mess? Was it out of fear that if I let him do it now, he'd do it again in front of other people, and I'd look like a bad mom who didn't know how to teach my son proper table manners? Honestly, it was a combination of those two exact reasons, and when held up against his curiosity about what would happen if his Puffins went into his water, they just didn't seem like very good reasons.
So I gave him my blessings. Smiling, he compared the floating puffins with limes and lemons. Oh yeah – I guess we do put food in our water! He watches us do that all the time! I asked him if his water tasted any different. He was eager to try it. After considering the flavor for a moment or so, he told me it tasted like rice milk. (I thought this was a brilliant comparison for a not-yet-two-year-old, by the way.)
Instead of a battle of wills, we had an intelligent and even scientific conversation. Plus, I suspect that since I was respectful of his curiosity, he was respectful of my need for neatness, and he kept his placemat and the table clean.

The former Del Monte Warehouse lines a portion of the Oakland Estuary along Buena Vista Avenue in Alameda, California. Built in 1927 by the California Packing Corporation (later Del Monte), the massive 240,000-square-foot, heavy timber frame, brick warehouse is Alameda's largest non-military building. During its heyday at the middle of the twentieth century, Alameda was the largest distributor of canned food in the world, largely because of this one building. Del Monte Corporation pulled out of the building in the late 1980s and it has been sporadically used for a variety of warehouse functions since then.
In 2014, BAR Architects hired VerPlanck Historic Preservation Consulting to consult on the proposed rehabilitation of the long-dormant former Del Monte Warehouse into a mixed-use residential and commercial project. The property is an Alameda City Landmark and therefore the project had to comply with the Secretary of the Interior's Standards. VerPlanck worked with BAR and the project sponsor, Tim Lewis Communities, to devise a project that complied with the Standards and the City of Alameda's local project review guidelines, as well as one that "penciled out" as a viable development project. After accomplishing these goals we attended several hearings at the Alameda Historic Review Board (HRB) to argue for the project's appropriate treatment of the resource. Based in part upon our testimony, the project was approved by the HRB and the City Council.
Based on VerPlanck Historic Preservation Consulting's excellent performance on this project, VerPlanck was asked to provide on-call preservation consulting services for the City of Alameda Community Development Department.

LaLiga | Real Madrid, Barcelona, Atlético: Rodrygo, Ansu Fati, João Félix... - AS.com
Real Madrid, Barcelona, Atlético: Rodrygo, Ansu Fati, João Félix...
Update 8 November 2019 at 12:02 EST
Football is, among other things, part of the entertainment industry. For that reason, it's a business that depends on fresh stars coming through, just as the film and music worlds do. This is particularly true of the Spanish game, where something of a changing of the guard is underway. Cristiano Ronaldo has departed Real Madrid. Lionel Messi is still at Barcelona and long may that be the case, but Xavi Hernández and Andrés Iniesta are gone, and without them the Blaugrana are incapable of hitting the same heights. At Atlético Madrid, the bulk of the battle-hardened group that Diego Simeone led to trophy triumphs has gradually left. LaLiga's big three are undergoing a process of renewal, and the emergence of Rodrygo Goes, Ansu Fati and João Félix is just what the doctor ordered.
Rodrygo, Fati and Félix look key to clubs' mid-term futures
Félix arrived with the biggest billing of the three, joining Atleti for top dollar. From what we saw of him at Benfica, he's clearly a huge talent who could achieve great things... but we've only had glimpses of that here. His impact has been hit by injury, albeit one that won't keep him out for long. Rodrygo was less well-known, but hardly came cheap, either. He arrived at Madrid almost as if pulled along in the slipstream of Vinicius Júnior, whose running with ball at feet offered cause for optimism among a fan base in need of cheering up last term. However, Vinicius' end product still leaves a lot to be desired, Zinedine Zidane doesn't have huge faith in him and, in Gareth Bale's ongoing absence, the coach has turned to Rodrygo. His style is less eye-catching than his compatriot's, but he's supremely clinical.
And then there's Ansu Fati, a lad getting his game for Barça despite only turning 17 a month ago. He's already up alongside Ousmane Dembélé in the pecking order, and you can't help yearning for him when we see Antoine Griezmann on that left flank. As the youngest of the three newcomers, he seems to have the most potential. Together, Fati, Rodrygo and Félix are a trio who, moving forward, can only serve to boost the interest LaLiga generates. Each gives his club's supporters reason for excitement, and appears to herald the dawn of a new era. Having seen the bar raised by those who have come before them, their task now is to take that next, definitive step in their careers. At least in part, the mid-term futures of Spain's three most prominent clubs depend on how things turn out for these starlets.

Time Team in Norfolk - Visit
Society members were invited to attend the Time Team excavations in Brancaster this August. Unfortunately WNKLAS was asked not to publicise the event as although the the TT crew wanted to involve local societies they felt unable to provide sufficient resource to manage a large public presence. The excavations focused on Branodunum, the Roman Fort near Brancaster, which is owned and managed by the National Trust. The Fort is somewhat unusual as it is larger than normal and also the surrounding Vicus (civilian settlements commonly surrounding the military fort) were not planned to the same axis as the fort itself suggesting that they may have predated it.
I have to say that we received a very warm welcome from both the National Trust and the Time Team crew. Both were enthusiastic about the project and for the opportunity in finding answers to a number of questions about the site. Branodunem is one of the larger Norfolk coastal forts and has been largely untouched over the centuries, and so there were high hopes of developing our understanding of the area. That said, the area of the fort and part of the Vicas had been a convenient source of stone for the locals and the Vicas to the East had been deep-ploughed so some of the team were cautious about expecting too much.
Time Team have only three days on site but had made amazing progress by the time we arrived. Two trenches had been dug to explore the surrounding settlements while three trenches explored a number of major features in the military fort.
At the start the Time Team crew had the aerial photos of the site which showed some interesting crop marks, and an initial geophysical survey which showed some of the fort features might have survived. The trenches were planned to investigate both the Fort building and also to look at the surrounding settlements to see if there was any evidence of it predating the Roman presence. The area itself didn't have much on the surface to indicate what might remain of the fort and if it would yield any information on why the fort had been constructed here. One of the theories, originating from the two axis of building, suggested that the fort had been placed to dominate an existing Iron Age settlement. As with most archaeology, the most interesting part will be the interpretation of the results. Was the excavation able to answer this question? You will have to watch the program to find out!
The finds from the site and as of mid-day on the final day were profuse and very interesting. As expected there was a lot of Roman pottery and tiles, copious animal bones (and a think at least one human bone) plus a number of coins and metal objects which had been discovered with the help of Detectorists from the society.
The program is due to air in Spring 2013 and the episode on Brancaster is definitely in the Unmissable category.

igotit.com | About us
On the summer of 2015 we started working on igotit.com to provide a unique market place for people to buy, sell, trade and connect for services. The past two years have been spent developing igoit.com it to the amazing platform it is today. We might have arrived late at the party but our goal has always been to provide the best platform on the market.
While many companies have tried and failed to improve the unfriendly user experience and outdated look and feel of classifieds websites like Craigslist, igotit.com is a new player in the space and a definite game changer. The online classifieds market has not changed much in the last 20 years but the way users interact online has. The basic idea with igotit.com is to embrace current technology available, bring online classifieds up to speed, and provide an amazing user experience.
What sets the site apart from the competition is igotit.com's proprietary system for organic ranking. Without delving into a rabbit hole of technical details about how the system operates the essential idea is the site is very search engine friendly. The whole platform is designed to achieve optimal ranking for relevant searches. In the online classifieds market, most sites depend on name recognition and drive traffic though advertising campaigns. Igotit.com's focus on organic ranking separates it from the rest of the market. This approach is great for users because correlating search terms will find rank on search engines easily bringing buyers and sellers together.
By design igotit.com is a pro-crypto currency platform and will accept a variety of crypto currencies. The history of online classified sites that feature an adult section has been checkered. Although not illegal, payment-processing companies such as Visa, Master Card, and Paypal have made it a matter of policy that they not to do business with classified websites with an adult section. Crypto currencies represent an emerging payment platform that is safer, provides more anonymity, and much lower fees for users. Igotit.com is proud to be a part of the crypto currency revolution!

5 Ways To Snag That Promotion - BI
Jan. 15, 2014, 11:36 AM
So you want a promotion - but don't have a clue how to make it happen.
Career experts say that even though you can't flip the advancement switch yourself - no matter how much you may deserve it - you can take certain actions to improve your chances of moving up the corporate ladder.
First, understand that your managers and possibly your human resources team hold the key to your advancement, depending on your organization's structure. Promotions are usually subject to your team's needs and workload, your boss's short-term and long-term goals, and your company's overall strategic plan.
While not all promotions include pay raises, a vertical move up the ladder with increasing responsibilities and visibility can certainly help your stature, both with colleagues at your workplace and within your industry - helping you ultimately achieve your career goals.
In his new book, "The Critical First Years of Your Professional Life," Robert L. Dilenschneider, founder and chairman of The Dilenschneider Group, a global PR firm, says there are specific actions and attitudes employees can embrace to make a promotion more likely in the months and years ahead (and he's not just talking about being a good team player):
Create friendly relationships with people in other departments. Intra-department bull sessions or quick chats here and there may hardly be on your mind when you're 100 percent task-focused - and when you barely know other people in your company except to say "good morning" on your way in the door. But establishing connections with employees in key groups within your company can only help. "Those connections may help you get a promotion and will certainly be useful to you after you are promoted," advises Dilenschneider.
Dress like those in the level above you. Think other people at work don't pay attention to your grooming, your choice of clothing, your physical presentation every day? Guess again. People form opinions in a nanosecond based on your appearance. "Don't dress well only when you have an official meeting with the boss," he says. "People see you every day. It isn't simply your boss who decides whether you get promoted." Usually others are involved in some way or have some input on the matter.
Have a sense of humor. This isn't something that's taught in college or grad school - but it comes in handy. "It shows you can detach yourself emotionally from a situation and look at things objectively," says Dilenschneider. There is a caveat, though: Keep your humor low key. "Belly laughs are seldom appropriate at work, unless the boss leads the merriment."
Be eager to learn more. Get an advanced degree if it's clear that would help you in your field. Take a course. Get a new certification. Attend an industry conference. In whatever way you can, add to your expertise and knowledge on an ongoing basis. For example, "simply being in an MBA program gives you status and makes people perceive you as a go-getter."
Reevaluate your image from time to time. While every workplace has different standards, take a step back now and then to consider how various aspects of your behavior may strike others. Ask a trusted friend or colleague to help you with an assessment. Look anew at your workspace; is it clean and organized - or a total pigpen? What hours do you keep - are you a devoted team player, especially at crunch time, or are you prone to cut corners? Does your attitude and temperament match those that are prized at your organization? All of this "can make all the difference in your future success."

Sea style wedding, ideas and inspirations - Love me in Italy
post-title Sea style wedding: how to make it come true
Sea style wedding: how to make it come true
> Sea style wedding: how to make it come true
How many of you wish for a sea style wedding?
Summer is the best season for who wants to plan a wedding outside, and thanks to the warm weather and the bright, long days, you can plan beautiful receptions by the beach, maybe in a beach resort or in a fancy restaurant on the coast, always enhancing the sea style.
Shades and colours of the sea, starfishes, seashells, sand, rocks and coloured stones: here some advices on how to set up the mise en place on your wedding day.
Colours, decorations and centrepieces
Not only blue and light blue are to be considered colours of the sea: there are many more shades to use for the silverware, the tableau marriage, the party favors, the bridal bouquet. Between the most famous tones there is the Tiffany green, that has recently become very fashionable, as well as turquiose, light brown and green, blush pink and lilac. Overall, pastel colours are the perfect ones for a wedding by the beach, meanwhile warm tones like red, yellow and bright orange are better fitted for a autumn, country style wedding.
It doesn't really matter which colour you prefer, what's important is to pair it with white or any colder tone. So go crazy with lanters everywhere or with centerpieces made with little white stone and decorated with coloured ribbons on the top. Candles are welcomed too, even better if shown off on a mirrored tray with flowers and seashells as added decorations.
The tableau marriage is a fundamental part of every wedding, mainly because it's the piece that will "guide" the guests to take the right seat. But not only that: the tableau marriage reflects the overall theme of the reception. So, if you're surrounded by the sea, there are so many cool ideas to create something very special, like naming every table with a "sea style" nickname.
There is the travel – lover kind of wedding couple who choose to name every table like an island, or like a beach resort, to be visited or already experienced, and the one who choose the names among ships, fishes or nautical knots. There is no limit to your imagination: the most important thing is that the choosen theme will be replicated on the centerpieces too, maybe with a nice little seashell with a ribbon to show off the table number.

O'Neill Counsel for Defendants and Appellants San Diego County Water Authority: KEKER, VAN NEST & Peters LLP, John W. Keker, Daniel Purcell, Dan Jackson, Warren A. Braunig, SAN DIEGO COUNTY WATER AUTHORITY, Mark J. Hattam
Metropolitan Water District of Southern California (Metropolitan) appeals a judgment holding that the rate it charges for transporting water, or "wheeling," violates numerous provisions of law and awarding the San Diego County Water Authority (Water Authority) substantial damages for having charged that rate in breach of a water exchange agreement between the two agencies. The Water Authority cross-appeals, disputing the trial court's decision upholding a provision in water conservation program contracts between the two parties that penalizes it for participating in litigation or supporting legislation to challenge or modify Metropolitan's existing rate structure.
The central issue in dispute is one of cost allocation: May the charge Metropolitan imposes for wheeling water purchased from a third party include an amount calculated to recover Metropolitan's allocable transportation costs over the California Aqueduct, part of the State Water Project, or must the charge be limited to costs allocable to transportation costs over those parts of its system that it owns and utilizes in the particular transaction? In Metropolitan Water Dist. v. Imperial Irrigation Dist. (2000) 80 Cal.App.4th 1403 (Imperial Irrigation) it was held, and the parties do not dispute, that the "wheeling statutes" (Wat. Code, § 1810 et seq.) do not as a matter of law prohibit the allocation of system-wide transportation costs to reasonable wheeling charges, so that wheeling rates need not be limited to the marginal cost of transporting water over the facilities used in a particular transaction. The trial court here held that although Metropolitan is required to pay its pro rata share of the costs of maintaining the California Aqueduct, these costs may not be considered in calculating Metropolitan's wheeling charges, essentially because Metropolitan does not own the aqueduct. We conclude this was error. The inclusion of Metropolitan's system-wide transportation costs, including transportation charges paid to the State Water Project, in the calculation of its wheeling rate does not, as the trial court held, violate the wheeling statutes, Proposition 26 (Cal. Const., art. XIIIC, § 1, subd. (e)), Government Code section 54999.7, subdivision (a), the common law, or the terms of the parties' exchange agreement.1 We do agree with the trial court that the allocation of "water stewardship" charges to the wheeling rate is improper and that the Water Authority is entitled to recover the overcharges that resulted from inclusion of those charges in the rate charged by Metropolitan.
I. Factual Background 2
"The history of California water development and distribution is a story of supply and demand" marked by an "uneven distribution of water resources" by region and season. (United States v. State Water Resources Control Bd. (1986) 182 Cal.App.3d 82, 98.) Regionally, most of California's rain and snow falls in the north while most of the demand arises in the south. (Ibid.) There is also an unequal distribution by season as precipitation occurs in the winter while demand is highest in the hot and dry summer months. (Ibid.) Precipitation also varies widely year to year. California has addressed its variable and uneven distribution of water resources by establishing an extensive water supply system to store and move water where and when it is needed. (Assoc. of Cal. Water Agencies, California's Water: California Water Systems < http://www.acwa.com/content/california-water-series/californias-water-california-water-systems> [as of June 21, 2017].) Over 1,000 reservoirs, "dozens of local and regional water conveyance systems" and "[s]even major systems of aqueducts and associated infrastructure exist today to capture and deliver water within the state." (Ibid.) This water supply system is managed by a network of agencies on federal, state, regional and local levels.
Metropolitan was established by the California Legislature in 1928. (Imperial Irrigation, supra, 80 Cal.App.4th at p. 1415.) "Its mission is to combine the financial resources of cities and communities in Southern California and to bring supplemental water to the area." (Ibid.) Initially, Metropolitan was formed "to construct and operate the 242-mile Colorado River Aqueduct" to transport Colorado River water to the area. (The Metropolitan Water Dist. of So. Cal., Who We Are, MWD ACT & Code < http://www.mwdh2o.com/WhoWeAre/MWDAct/Pages/default.aspx> [as of June 21, 2017].) "Concurrent with the enactment of the Metropolitan Act, the U.S. Congress passed the Boulder Canyon Project Act, authorizing construction of Hoover Dam, which provided power to pump water to Southern California." (Ibid.) Today, Metropolitan imports water from two principal sources, the Colorado River, using its Colorado River Aqueduct, and Northern California via the state-owned California Aqueduct.
Metropolitan delivers water to a voluntary collective of "26 member public agencies — 14 cities, 11 municipal water districts, [and] one county water authority," the San Diego County Water Authority. (The Metropolitan Water District of So. Cal., Who We Are, Overview & Mission < http://www.mwdh2o.com/WhoWeAre/Mission/Pages /default.aspx> [as of June 21, 2017].) Metropolitan's member agencies provide "water to more than 19 million people in Los Angeles, Orange, Riverside, San Bernardino, San Diego and Ventura counties." (Ibid.) "Metropolitan currently delivers an average of 1.5 billion gallons of water per day to a 5,200-square-mile service area." (Ibid.)
As noted, the Water Authority is one of Metropolitan's member agencies. It "is an independent public agency that serves as San Diego County's regional water wholesaler. It is not part of either the city or county of San Diego governments. The mission of the Water Authority is to provide a safe and reliable supply of water to its 24 member agencies serving the San Diego region's $222 billion economy and its 3.3 million residents." (San Diego County Water Authority, About Us, Frequently Asked Questions and Key Facts < http://www.sdcwa.org/frequently-asked-questions-and-key-facts> [as of June 21, 2017].) The Water Authority stores, treats, and transports imported water to its member agencies, the retail water providers in the region. (Ibid.) It operates and maintains dams, a water treatment facility, and "the San Diego region's aqueduct delivery system, which consists of approximately 300 miles of large-diameter pipeline in two aqueducts, 1,600 aqueduct-related structures, and over 100 flow-control facilities, occupying 1,400 acres of right-of-way." (San Diego County Water Authority, Construction, Facilities & Operations < http://www.sdcwa.org/facilities-operations> [as of June 21, 2017].)
Metropolitan has access to the State Water Project conveyance system and an annual allotment of Northern California water through a contract with the California Department of Water Resources, which manages the system. The department "has entered into 31 such water contracts with local governmental entities ․ The contracts require regular payments to the state in return for participation in the [State Water Project] System. Not all the districts actually receive water, but all must make payments according to their respective maximum annual water entitlements and the portion of the System required to deliver such entitlements. Those which actually receive water also pay amounts attributable to the water received." (Goodman v. County of Riverside, supra, 140 Cal.App.3d at pp. 903-904, fn. omitted.) The payments under these contracts pay for project operating costs and the public bonds issued to build the system. (Id. at p. 905.)
The Colorado River is the other of Metropolitan's primary water sources. The river "rises in the mountains of Colorado and flows generally in a southwesterly direction for about 1,300 miles through Colorado, Utah, and Arizona and along the Arizona-Nevada and Arizona-California boundaries, after which it passes into Mexico and empties into the Mexican waters of the Gulf of California. ․ The river and its tributaries flow in a natural basin almost surrounded by large mountain ranges and drain 242,000 square miles, an area about 900 miles long from north to south and 300 to 500 miles wide from east to west—practically one-twelfth the area of the continental United States excluding Alaska. Much of this large basin is so arid that it is, as it always has been, largely dependent upon managed use of the waters of the Colorado River System to make it productive and inhabitable." (Arizona v. California (1963) 373 U.S. 546, 552.)
In 1929, a federal act authorized construction of Hoover Dam to generate electricity, regulate the Colorado River's flow, and apportion the river's water among the several states claiming rights to it. (Arizona v. California, supra, 373 U.S. at pp. 560-561.) Metropolitan built the Colorado River Aqueduct to take delivery of its Colorado River water at Arizona's Lake Havasu and transport it to Southern California. Disputes among the states over Colorado River water continued until 1963, when the United State Supreme Court held that California was entitled to a basic allotment of no more than 4.4 million acre-feet per year.3 (Id. at p. 565.) "[T]he court's resolution of the dispute between the states—which limited California's share of the river to far less than the state can use—ensured the fight would continue within the state for years to come." (Quantification Settlement Agreement Cases (2011) 201 Cal.App.4th 758, 772 (QSA Cases).)
"In 1929, the year after the Boulder Canyon [Hoover Dam] Project Act took effect, the Secretary of the Interior requested from California's Division of Water Resources a recommendation of the proper apportionments of California's share of Colorado River water among the various applicants and water users within the state. This request led to the 'Seven-Party Agreement' of August 1931. The terms of this agreement, which apportioned a total of 5.362 million acre-feet of water annually between the parties, were incorporated into contracts between the Secretary of the Interior and various California water users for delivery of Colorado River water under the Boulder Canyon Project Act." (QSA Cases, supra, 201 Cal.App.4th at p. 783.) The Seven-Party Agreement apportioned more than California's basic allotment because, "for years after the United States Supreme Court determined that California's share of the water from the Colorado River was to be only 4.4 million acre-feet during normal water years, California was nonetheless able to use much more than that because Arizona and Nevada were not yet able to use their full entitlements." (Id. at p. 773.)
Parties to the Seven-Party Agreement included Metropolitan and the Imperial Irrigation District (Imperial). (QSA Cases, supra, 201 Cal.App.4th at p. 784 & fn. 8.) The agreement "apportioned Colorado River water among the various parties by priority but without quantifying exactly how much water each party was entitled to receive." (Id. at p. 785.) Under the agreement, Imperial was the largest single holder of water rights with priority over Metropolitan. (County of Imperial v. Superior Court (2007) 152 Cal.App.4th 13, 19.) Of the 4.4 million acre-feet of water allocated to California, Metropolitan was entitled to only 550,000 acre-feet. The Water Authority possessed no Colorado River rights. (Ibid.) This priority system led to conflicts among the water agencies. (Ibid.) Imperial, which had more water than it needed, sought to sell its excess water to others while Metropolitan maintained that any excess should be made available to it under the priority system. (Id. at pp. 19-20.) Ultimately, Imperial's position prevailed, permitting Imperial to sell its excess water to other agencies, such as Metropolitan and the Water Authority.
The Water Authority has no means of transporting Colorado River water other than over Metropolitan's aqueduct and thus opened negotiations with Metropolitan to transport, or "wheel," Imperial water. "Wheeling" is the industry term for "[t]he use of a water conveyance facility by someone other than the owner or operator to transport water." (Imperial Irrigation, supra, 80 Cal.App.4th at p. 1407.) California law mandates that the owner or operator of a water conveyance facility allow others to use up to 70 percent of the facility's unused capacity to transport water upon payment of "fair compensation." (Wat. Code, §§ 1810, 1814; QSA Cases, supra, 201 Cal.App.4th at pp. 840-841.)
In any water transfer, whether by wheeling or an exchange agreement, there is a physical intermingling of the purchased water with water from other sources. As the Water Authority's assistant general manager testified, a direct water delivery could be accomplished only with an empty aqueduct and pipeline from source to buyer, which does not occur in California where water from different sources is intermingled as it moves through an array of reservoirs, aqueducts, and pipelines to reach multiple agencies. Metropolitan cannot deliver "the same molecules" of Colorado River water the Water Authority acquires from Imperial because that water is commingled with "other water Metropolitan has taken off the Colorado River" at Lake Havasu for sale to other member agencies.4
Contemporaneously, in 2003, Metropolitan and the Water Authority executed an amended exchange agreement that is the subject of this appeal. Unable to agree upon the long-term price the Water Authority would be charged for water received under the agreement, the parties agreed to an initial price with future prices linked to standard water rates, lawfully set. The parties agreed: "The price on the date of execution of this agreement shall be two hundred fifty three dollars ($253.00) [per acre-foot]. Thereafter, the price shall be equal to the charge or charges set by Metropolitan's board of directors pursuant to applicable law and regulation and generally applicable to the conveyance of water by Metropolitan on behalf of its member agencies." The Water Authority promised not to challenge conveyance charges set by Metropolitan for five years following execution of the 2003 exchange agreement but reserved the right thereafter to contest the rates as contrary to "applicable law and regulation."5
Metropolitan is required by statute to establish rates that will generate sufficient revenue to pay its expenses. (Wat. Code Appen., § 109-134.)6 For years Metropolitan utilized a single water service rate. In 1998, Metropolitan began a lengthy process to replace the single rate with a new rate structure allocating charges to separate cost components, including water supply and transportation. In adopting the new rate structure, effective 2003, Metropolitan represented that it was designed to create "a cost of service approach consistent with industry guidelines," "[e]nsure that users, including member agencies and other entities, pay the same rates and charges for like classes of services and provide fair allocation of costs through rates and charges," and "[o]ffer choices for services to member agencies and accommodate the development of a water transfer market."
Metropolitan followed a four-step "cost of service process" in setting rates for different service components: (1) estimation of revenue requirements to meet expenses, including operating costs and debt service; (2) allocation of revenue requirements to "different categories based on the operational functions served by each cost," for example revenue necessary to pay for water supply, conveyance and storage; (3) allocation of costs based on their causes and characteristics; and (4) "allocation of costs to rate design elements."
Metropolitan's water service rates are now a combination of component rates calculated to recover its costs incurred in purchasing and transporting water to its member agencies. The rate components, with limited exceptions inapplicable here, are volumetric—the rate is a dollar amount per acre foot.
Metropolitan provides both full service, in which it supplies and transports water, and wheeling service, in which it transports water supplied by others.7 The rates for full-service and wheeling are comprised of different combinations of the component rates set out above. The full-service rate includes the supply rate, system access rate, system power rate, and water stewardship rate. The wheeling rate includes the system access rate and water stewardship rate. (Admin. Code, § 4405.) A recipient of wheeling service does not pay the system power rate but pays only the actual cost of the power used to transport the water it receives from a third party.
During the administrative process in which Metropolitan's rates were established, the Water Authority challenged the propriety of applying the system access and water stewardship rates to the wheeling service. Metropolitan's general manager responded that a system access rate was adopted, rather than individual aqueduct access rates, because "Metropolitan's system is not a point-to-point service, but an interconnected regional system." "Operational flexibility has been achieved by creating an interconnected regional delivery network integrating the State Water Project ․ and the Colorado River Aqueduct ․ conveyance systems with the in-basin distribution system. This integrated network allows Metropolitan to incorporate supply from the [project] and the [aqueduct] with a diverse portfolio of geographically dispersed storage programs ․ This integrated, regional network allows Metropolitan to move supplies throughout the system in response to supply availability and operational needs." Metropolitan's general manager asserted that its "integrated, flexible system directly benefits all agencies ․ as to all services, including wheeling and exchange services."
As to the water stewardship rate—"a volumetric charge upon all water moved through the system that provides a dedicated source of funding for conservation and local resources development"—Metropolitan's general manager asserted that all users benefit from water conservation and thus all users are properly charged for it: "conservation, recycling, and groundwater recovery decrease the region's overall dependence on imported water supplies from environmentally sensitive areas like the Bay-Delta; increase the overall level of water supply reliability in Southern California; reduce and defer system capacity expansion costs; and create available space to be used to complete water transfers. Because conservation measures and local resource investments reduce the overall level of dependence on the imported water system, more capacity is available in existing facilities for a longer period of time. The space in the system made available by conservation and recycling is open to all system users."
In June 2010, the Water Authority filed its initial action challenging the water rates Metropolitan adopted in April 2010 for 2011 to 2012. In June 2012, the Water Authority filed a second action challenging Metropolitan's 2013-2014 rates.8 The Water Authority also sought damages for breach of the provision in the amended water exchange agreement providing that "the price shall be equal to the charge or charges set by Metropolitan's Board of Directors pursuant to applicable law and regulation and generally applicable to the conveyance of water by Metropolitan on behalf of its member agencies." The Water Authority maintained that Metropolitan's rates are not lawful conveyance rates and, thus, not properly charged under the amended agreement. The Water Authority also challenged Metropolitan's method for calculating the extent of its right to Metropolitan supplied water in the event of a water shortage. By statute, the Water Authority has a "preferential right" to Metropolitan water based on its "total payments" to Metropolitan "excepting purchase of water." (Wat. Code Appen., § 109-135.) The Water Authority maintains that, contrary to the position taken by Metropolitan, its payments under the exchange agreement must be included in the calculation of its "preferential rights."
In pretrial proceedings, the court overruled Metropolitan's demurrer based on the statute of limitations. The court also granted Metropolitan's motion for summary adjudication rejecting the Water Authority's claim that Metropolitan imposed an unlawful condition on the water agency's right to petition the courts by precluding member agencies challenging Metropolitan's rate structure from receiving water conservation subsidies funded by that rate structure.
The court informally coordinated the 2010 and 2012 cases and bifurcated the bench trial. The court first determined the validity of Metropolitan's water rates and then decided the contract claim and computation of preferential rights.
In phase one, the court found "no substantial evidence to support Met [ropolitan]'s inclusion in its transportation rates, and hence in its wheeling rate, of 100% of (1) the sums it pays to the California Department of Water Resources' [for the State Water Project] disaggregated by the [State Water Project] as for transportation of that purchased water; and (2) the costs for conservation and local water supply development programs recovered through the Water Stewardship Rate. ․ [T]hese rates over-collect from wheelers, because at least a significant portion of these costs are attributable to supply, not transportation. These rates—the System Access Rate, System Power Rate, Water Stewardship Rate, and Met[ropolitan]'s wheeling rate—therefore violate Proposition 26 (2013-14 rates only), the wheeling statutes [ (Wat. Code, § 1810 et seq.) ], Gov. Code, § 549997(a), and the common law. The court invalidates each rate for both the 2011-2012 and 2013-2014 rate cycles."
In phase two, the trial court found that Metropolitan had breached the price term of the 2003 exchange agreement because it charged the Water Authority transportation rates that were not "consistent with law and regulation." The court awarded the Water Authority damages equal to the total amount the water agency paid under the exchange agreement from 2011 to 2014 for State Water Project costs and the water stewardship rate. The court acknowledged that the award "may overcompensate" the Water Authority by disallowing all State Water Project costs but found that "[i]t asks too much of [the Water Authority] to require it to recalculate Met[ropolitan]'s rates with any useful degree of precision." The court also held that Metropolitan's formula for calculating preferential rights must give the Water Authority credit for amounts paid under the exchange agreement, reasoning that these payments are not for the "purchase of water," which are excluded from that calculation. The court awarded the Water Authority "damages in the amount of $188,295,602 on the breach of contract claims, plus prejudgment interest in the amount of $46,637,180 for a total judgment of $234,932,782."9 The court also awarded attorney fees of almost $9 million.10
III. Metropolitan's Appeal
Metropolitan claims the trial court erred in failing to dismiss the Water Authority's rate challenges as untimely. Metropolitan argues the lawsuits contesting water rates for 2011 to 2014 are, in effect, a challenge to its 2002 issuance of public bonds because bond repayment is dependent on rate revenue. The lawsuits, Metropolitan argues, are barred under statutes requiring that an action to determine the validity of a local agency's bonds be brought within 60 days of bond issuance (Code of Civ. Proc., §§ 860, 863; Gov. Code, § 53511) and by annual legislation validating prior bond issuances. Validation statutes are designed "to settle promptly all questions about the validity" of a public agency's actions. (McLeod v. Vista United School Dist. (2008) 158 Cal.App.4th 1156, 1166.) The Water Authority responds that its lawsuits challenge Metropolitan's current rates, not its bond issuance of years ago.11
The facts are largely undisputed. In March 2002, Metropolitan adopted a new rate structure effective January 2003 with water rates established for supply, transportation and other service functions. In September 2002, Metropolitan issued bonds "payable from and secured by a pledge of" net operating revenue from water sales. Metropolitan has issued similar bonds in the past. The 2002 bond statement to investors summarized revenue from prior years and described the prior and new rate structure and new rates. Metropolitan has increased its water rates several times between 2002 and today but asserts the "rate structure has remained unchanged with each new rate cycle."
Metropolitan concedes "that the opportunity to challenge the amount of Metropolitan's rates renews with each rate-setting" but argues that the Water Authority's 2010 and 2012 lawsuits are untimely because they challenge the water rate structure adopted in 2002. The argument is untenable. Metropolitan first adopted its water rate structure in 2002 but it has readopted that structure in subsequent years when setting rates founded on it. Metropolitan's reenactment and extension of that rate structure to subsequent years, not its initial adoption, is the action being contested.
Fees and rates are "subject to attack" when reenacted, even if they are essentially the same as previous ones for which the statute of limitations has expired. (Barratt American, Inc. v. City of Rancho Cucamonga (2005) 37 Cal.4th 685, 702-703.) Were "all subsequent reenactments ․ immune to judicial challenge or review," "there would be no effective enforcement mechanism to ensure that local agencies" base rates on the cost of service. (Id. at p. 703.) "[I]immunity from judicial review" would create "an incentive for local agencies to overvalue the estimated costs of services and then continually readopt that fee." (Ibid.)
Metropolitan argues that Barratt and similar cases are inapplicable because Metropolitan's rate structure was expressly pledged to the repayment of bonds and the "method of financing" was validated when the 2002 bond issue went unchallenged. Metropolitan notes that the validation of an agency's bond issuance may extend to agency charges that are "part of the bond contract." (Aughenbaugh v. Bd. of Supervisors (1983) 139 Cal.App.3d 83, 88.) In Aughenbaugh, landowners sought a refund of water charges used to repay bonds financing the water system's construction. (Id. at p. 87.) The court found the charges to be part of the bond contract and validated with the bonds. (Id. at pp. 88-91.) In that case, "ordinances and resolutions which are part of the bond contract provide[d] that the standby charges in their entirety shall be pledged for the payment of the cost of the bonds." (Id. at p. 89.)
Aughenbaugh is inapplicable here. Metropolitan's rate structure itself was not pledged for payment of the bonds or otherwise part of the 2002 bond contract. The bond contract promises repayment from net operating revenues, defined as "all revenues received by [Metropolitan] from charges for the sale or availability of water" less operation and maintenance expenses. The bond contract is not premised on a particular charge, rate or rate structure. In fact, Metropolitan is expressly permitted to "prescribe, revise and collect" water charges in generating revenue sufficient to repay the bonds. (Italics added.) The sufficiency of that revenue is not threatened by the lawsuits, which do not dispute Metropolitan's right to recover the cost of service through its rates. Modification of the rate structure may affect the distribution of water charges among Metropolitan's member agencies, but it should not affect Metropolitan's net revenue. Metropolitan acknowledged the security of its revenue when the agency assured its investors in subsequently issued bonds that the Water Authority's challenge to the rate structure would have no effect on revenue. A similar acknowledgement occurs in the 2002 bond contract itself, which states that Metropolitan will "generate the same level of revenues" regardless of its rate structure. The bond issuance was not founded on a particular rate structure.
The lawsuits are not time-barred. The Water Authority filed these actions shortly after Metropolitan adopted the challenged water rates. The actions challenge the validity of those rates, not the validity of the earlier bond issuance.
B. Wheeling statutes
The trial court analyzed the validity of Metropolitan's water rates under the wheeling statutes and other legal standards jointly, reasoning that "the core inquiry" was the same: "whether the costs of services (e.g., wheeling) are reasonably related to the costs of providing those services." While there are some differences among the legal standards, we agree that the "core" issue as determined under the wheeling statutes does, as a practical matter, dictate the conclusion that must be reached under the other provisions of law.
The wheeling statutes (Wat. Code, § 1810 et seq.) further the declared "policy of the state to facilitate the voluntary sale, lease, or exchange of water or water rights in order to promote efficient use." (Imperial Irrigation, supra, 80 Cal.App.4th at p. 1409.) With limited exceptions, a public agency with unused capacity in its water conveyance facility may not deny a water transferor the use of the conveyance facility "if fair compensation is paid for that use." (Wat. Code, § 1810.) "Fair compensation" is statutorily defined as "the reasonable charges incurred by the owner of the conveyance system, including capital, operation, maintenance, and replacement costs, increased costs from any necessitated purchase of supplemental power, and including reasonable credit for any offsetting benefits for the use of the conveyance system." (Wat. Code, § 1811, subd. (c).)
The owner of a water conveyance facility determines the amount of fair compensation. (Wat. Code, § 1812, subd. (b).) In making that determination, the owner must "act in a reasonable manner consistent with the requirements of law to facilitate the voluntary sale, lease, or exchange of water and shall support its determinations by written findings. In any judicial action challenging any determination made under this article the court shall consider all relevant evidence, and the court shall give due consideration to the purposes and policies of this article. In any such case the court shall sustain the determination of the public agency if it finds that the determination is supported by substantial evidence." (Wat. Code, § 1813.)
In reviewing the trial court's decision, we note that "the Legislature specifically authorized a water conveyance system owner to determine what is 'fair compensation' ([Wat. Code,] § 1810) subject to certain provisions." (Imperial Irrigation, supra, 80 Cal.App.4th at p. 1431.) When initially introduced, the wheeling legislation provided for the conveyance system owner and wheeler to reach a mutual agreement as to price and, if unable to reach agreement, for a state agency to set the price. (Id. at p. 1411.) The Legislature rejected that approach in favor of empowering the conveyance owner to determine fair compensation subject to judicial review. (Id. at pp. 1412-1413.)
It is not the court's function to set water rates, but only to determine if substantial evidence supports the fair compensation determination made by the water agency. (Wat. Code, § 1813) Where, as here, a trial court's review is limited to examining the administrative record to determine if an agency's decision is supported by substantial evidence, "the appellate court's function is identical to that of the superior court: It will review the administrative record to determine whether the agency findings were supported by substantial evidence, rather than limiting review to the trial court findings." (Eisenberg, Cal. Practice Guide: Civil Appeals and Writs (The Rutter Group 2016) ¶ 8:128.2, p. 8-91; see Cal. Assn. of Medical Products Suppliers v. Maxwell-Jolly (2011) 199 Cal.App.4th 286, 303 [" '[W]hen administrative agency action is judicially reviewable under a substantial evidence standard, the rule for the reviewing trial court and appellate court is the same.' "]; see also Lewin v. St. Joseph Hospital (1978) 82 Cal.App.3d 368, 386 ["If the proper scope of review in the trial court was whether the administrative decision was supported by substantial evidence, the function of the appellate court on appeal is the same as that of the trial court, that is, it reviews the administrative decision to determine whether it is supported by substantial evidence."].) Nor are we bound by the trial court's interpretation of the wheeling statutes, which presents a question of law. (Imperial Irrigation, supra, 80 Cal.App.4th at p. 1423.)
As noted above, the court found the wheeling statutes violated by Metropolitan's inclusion in its wheeling rate of State Water Project transportation costs, as part of its system access rate, and of the water stewardship rate. These rate components, the trial court concluded, "over-collect from wheelers, because at least a significant portion of these costs are attributable to supply, not transportation." The court found that Metropolitan's payments to the State Water Project, although assessed separately for supply and transportation, are for the single objective of obtaining a water supply and that conservation programs primarily benefit water supply, not transportation.
1. Inclusion of State Water Project transportation charges in the system access rate
Neither the Water Authority nor the trial court question the basic premise, established in Imperial Irrigation that system-wide transportation costs may be included in the calculation of wheeling rates.12 (Imperial Irrigation, supra, 80 Cal.App.4th 1403.) It is not necessary to limit wheeling charges to the marginal cost of transporting water over the portion of the system utilized in a particular transaction. The trial court nonetheless found that all of Metropolitan's payments to the State Water Project, including those specifically designated for transportation costs, are for the purpose of obtaining a water supply, so that no part of those payments may be included in Metropolitan's wheeling rate. The court "found no reasonable basis" for Metropolitan's contention that the State Water Project "conveyance facilities are a part of [Metropolitan's] conveyance facilities."
We are unable to understand the basis of the trial court's uncertainty. The State Water Project bills for transportation costs separately from water supply and only this portion of the state's charge is the capital and operating cost component of the transportation expense included in Metropolitan's system access rate. Under Metropolitan's contract with the state, the amount of the transportation charge is designed to "return to the state those costs of the project transportation facilities necessary to deliver water to the contractor which constitute operation, maintenance, power, and replacement costs incurred irrespective of the amount of project water delivered to the contractor." (Italics added.) Although the state is the owner of the State Water Project and its facilities, Metropolitan is bound to pay its pro rata share of the capital, operation and maintenance costs of the conveyance system. In 2011, this share was over $195 million according to the Water Authority's calculations and constituted approximately 58 percent of the State Water Project's transportation costs. The California Aqueduct unquestionably is an integral part of the system by which Metropolitan transports water to its member agencies.
The California Aqueduct and other State Water Project facilities are not restricted to supplying Metropolitan with project water. Metropolitan's State Water Project contract entitles it to use project facilities to store and transport water procured from nonproject sources and Metropolitan does so. Metropolitan has, to date, chiefly used State Water Project facilities to receive project water but this does not establish that the cost of the facilities should be allocated to supply. The facilities are a conveyance network available to Metropolitan for the transport of both project and nonproject water.
A Metropolitan member agency wheeling nonproject water from Northern California does so using State Water Project facilities. Indeed, evidence was presented at trial of a 2009 transaction in which Metropolitan wheeled water through State Water Project facilities on the Water Authority's behalf. Under the view adopted by the trial court, no part of the cost of those facilities could be included in the rate charged to the Water Authority for wheeling that water over those facilities. Indeed, a consequence of the trial court's ruling would be that a wheeler, regardless of which aqueduct is used, would pay for Metropolitan's costs incurred in maintaining the Colorado River Aqueduct but not the California Aqueduct.
The Water Authority makes much of our Supreme Court's remark that Metropolitan's contract with the State Water Project has "a much greater resemblance to a contract for the furnishing of continued water service in the future" than an "agreement for the purchase of an interest in a water system." (Metropolitan Water Dist. of Southern Cal. v. Marquardt (1963) 59 Cal.2d 159, 201-202.) Metropolitan has no ownership interest in State Water Project facilities, but the State Water Project contract does more than furnish water to Metropolitan. The contract entitles Metropolitan to use project facilities for conveyance and obligates it and other project contractors, not the state, to pay all costs for building, operating, and maintaining the project's water conveyance structures. (See Goodman v. County of Riverside (1983) 140 Cal.App.3d 900, 910 [all project costs are met by payments from agencies with water contracts].) As these costs are incurred by Metropolitan, so too must they be recovered by it. (Wat. Code, § 1811, subd. (c).)
The Water Authority asserts that Metropolitan originally characterized its payments under the State Water Project contract as supply costs and that the record contains no reasonable basis for the change in characterization. Although State Water Project costs were initially deemed supply costs, this practice changed when the agency adopted more particularized cost categories and an unbundled rate structure. The Water Authority relies heavily on a 1969 "Water Pricing Policy Study" prepared for Metropolitan by a consultant, Brown and Caldwell. The study is of little relevance as it predates the rates at issue here by more than 40 years and employed a limited set of cost categories distinct from those used today. Brown & Caldwell used only four functional cost categories in its 1969 report: "supply system," "distribution system," "water treatment facilities," and "administrative and general costs." "Supply system" costs included "facilities whose function is the delivery of water from the sources of supply to the [Metropolitan] distribution system," including the Colorado River Aqueduct and the State Water Project (excluding its terminal reservoirs). The "distribution system" picked up where the "supply system" left off, moving water from Metropolitan's major conduits to the localized member agencies. In the 1969 study, Metropolitan's costs for both the State Water Project and the Colorado River Aqueduct, representing most of the agency's expenses, were placed in an undifferentiated "supply" category.
Water rate authorities advised more refined cost categories. In 1993, a water rates analyst published a treatise recommending a greater array of functional cost categories dividing supply from conveyance and transmission costs. (Raftelis, Comprehensive Guide to Water and Wastewater Finance and Pricing (2nd ed. 1993) p. 168.) In October 1995, Resource Management International, Inc. (RMI) prepared a rate study for Metropolitan recommending that operating expenses be functionalized into a number of categories that separate supply (cost of purchasing water and maintaining dams) from transmission (cost of "operating and maintaining the aqueducts to move water from sources of supply to major centers of demand"). In May 1996, RMI characterized the State Water Project transportation payment as a transmission cost. RMI found state charges for capital, operation and maintenance charges for project facilities to be "clearly transmission-related" and properly allocated to Metropolitan's transmission or transportation costs.13
In 1997, Metropolitan adopted Resolution 8520 establishing a wheeling rate "to recover fair compensation for the use of its conveyance system." Metropolitan determined that its State Water Project transportation cost is properly included in the wheeling rate as a cost of water transmission because, among other things, Metropolitan has "the right to use [State Water Project] transport facilities for its own purposes, subject to certain conditions." The resolution states: "[I]t is appropriate to set the wheeling rate on a 'postage stamp' basis; that is, a uniform rate per acre-foot of water wheeled regardless of the source of the water, the facilities used in the transaction or the distance the water is moved. A uniform rate is appropriate because of the integrated nature of Metropolitan's conveyance system; because Metropolitan's historic and current rate setting policy has been, and is, based on the postage stamp concept; because postage stamp rate setting is the standard among California water supply entities; because of the administrative impracticability of establishing point-to-point rates; because ․ the Metropolitan Water District Act requires that rates shall be uniform for like classes of service throughout Metropolitan; and because [the] Water Code ․ defines 'fair compensation' to include reasonable charges for the use of the entire conveyance 'system.' "
In its 2002 report of rates and charges, Metropolitan described what remains its current rate structure. Water rates were "unbundled into separate services of supply, conveyance and distribution, water stewardship and power." State Water Project costs were divided between supply, conveyance and power "to allow a more detailed level of analysis to be performed during the evaluation of rate design alternatives." The State Water Project Delta water charge and the cost of storage and transfer programs were delegated to supply and the capital, operations, maintenance and overhead costs for project facilities that convey water to Metropolitan's service area were delegated to conveyance. Power costs to convey water was separately stated.14 Rates were based on these functional categories, with the system access rate recovering the system-wide cost of providing conveyance and distribution. The report states that the system access rate provides "a non-discriminatory rate to all parties that wish to use available system capacity to move water anywhere in the [Metropolitan] service area" creating "the opportunity for a fair and efficient water transfer market to develop." Member agencies purchasing water from Metropolitan or a third party "will pay the exact same cost for access to the system."
In 2010, Raftelis Financial Consultants, Inc. reviewed Metropolitan's rate methodology and found it consistent with industry standards. Concerning the State Water Project, the financial consultant noted that the project provides an annual statement of charges that invoices separately for supply and transportation and stated it was "appropriate" for Metropolitan to assign "these components to the respective functional categories."15
The Water Authority offered a different expert assessment. Its retained consultant opined that State Water Project costs should be allocated to supply alone, not allocated between supply and transportation. Bartle Wells Associates approved Metropolitan's practice of dividing Colorado Aqueduct costs between supply and transportation but concluded that a similar division of State Water Project costs was improper because Metropolitan does not own or operate the latter facilities. As discussed, this heavy reliance on ownership is misplaced because the State Water Project owner does not bear its costs—Metropolitan and other contracting agencies do.
In any event, the courts do not weigh competing methodologies to determine the best water rates. We determine only whether substantial evidence supports the fair compensation determination made by the rate-setting agency. Metropolitan's determination is well supported by the record and must be affirmed as regards its system access rate that recovers the cost of its State Water Project transportation payments. The inclusion of these payments in the calculation of Metropolitan's wheeling rate does not violate the wheeling statutes.
2. Inclusion of the water stewardship rate
As indicated above, Metropolitan's wheeling rate also includes a water stewardship rate component designed to fund water conservation programs. (Admin. Code, § 4124.) As part of its legislative mandate to "expand water conservation, water recycling, and groundwater recovery efforts" (Wat. Code Appen., § 109-130.5, subd. (2)), Metropolitan enters into contracts with its member agencies that are designed to develop and conserve local water resources. It funds these programs through the water stewardship rate.
The trial court found the water stewardship rate to be supply-related, not transportation-related, because the primary benefit of such programs is a reduced need for imported water through development of local water supplies. Metropolitan contends that its "allocation of the Water Stewardship Rate to transportation is reasonable because the demand-management programs it funds create several transportation-related benefits." Metropolitan states that less demand for imported water assures unused capacity for wheeling and reduces capital expenditures for expansion of the conveyance and distribution system.
The record fails to support Metropolitan's inclusion of the water stewardship rate as a transportation cost. A 2012 report prepared by Metropolitan itself states that "[t]he central objective of Metropolitan's water conservation program is to help ensure adequate, reliable and affordable water supplies for Southern California by actively promoting efficient water use."
A water agency's payments to its members to encourage water conservation is outside the scope of recoverable costs contemplated by the wheeling statutes. As previously noted, "fair compensation" for a wheeler's use of a conveyance system is statutorily defined as "the reasonable charges incurred by the owner of the conveyance system, including capital, operation, [and] maintenance" costs. (Wat. Code, § 1811, subd. (c).) "[A] water conveyance system owner is entitled to reasonable charges it incurs 'for the use of the conveyance system' ([Wat. Code,] § 1811, subd. (c)) when there is unused capacity available. ․ We must give the word 'incurred' its usual and ordinary meaning. [Citations.] ․ 'Charges incurred' refers to costs a person becomes subject to or liable for because of an act or transaction. [Citations.] ․ '[F]air compensation ([Wat. Code,] § 1810) includes charges the owner, in this case the Metropolitan Water District, becomes subject to or liable for in using the 'conveyance system' ([Wat. Code,] § 1811, subd. (c)) to wheel water when it has unused capacity." (Imperial Irrigation, supra, 80 Cal.App.4th at pp. 1430-1431.)
Metropolitan's payments to member agencies to fund water conservation programs is not a cost of using the conveyance system to wheel water. Funding conservation programs may lessen capital expenditures for system expansion in the future, as Metropolitan asserts, but that potential savings is not recoverable under the terms of the statute that permits recovery for actual conveyance costs—not avoided costs.
Water conservation is of undeniable importance. However, the narrow question here is whether substantial evidence supports Metropolitan's determination that the water stewardship rate used to fund conservation programs is recoverable as "fair compensation" for use of the conveyance system. (Wat. Code, § 1811, subd. (c).) The answer is no.
The trial court also found Metropolitan's wheeling rate and exchange agreement transportation rates in violation of the common law. Under the common law, rates are invalid if they are not based "on the cost of service or some other reasonable basis." (County of Inyo v. Public Utilities Com. (1980) 26 Cal.3d 154, 159, fn. 4.) In evaluating validity, "[s]ubstantial deference must be given to [Metropolitan's] determination of its rate design. [Citation.] 'Rates established by the lawful rate-fixing body are presumed reasonable, fair and lawful.' " (San Diego County Water Authority v. Metropolitan Water Dist. (2004) 117 Cal.App.4th 13, 23, fn. 4.)
In finding a violation of the common law, the trial court relied on the same reasoning on which it based its conclusions under the wheeling statutes. For the same reasons we reject its conclusion under the common law with respect to Metropolitan's system access rate and agree with its conclusion with respect to the water stewardship rate.
As discussed above, Metropolitan's conveyance system encompasses both its own facilities and State Water Project facilities, which are used as an integrated system to transport water to Southern California. In addition to the evidence summarized above, we also note that Metropolitan commonly uses a single reservoir with intermingled water from the State Water Project and the Colorado River to supply member agencies. The Water Authority purchased Colorado River water from Imperial but, under the exchange agreement, received from Metropolitan a mix of water amounting to roughly 59 percent Colorado River water and 41 percent State Water Project water. At trial, the Water Authority asserted that Metropolitan's use of project water to fulfill the exchange agreement was simply a matter of Metropolitan's convenience, as it was physically possible to route Colorado River water directly to the Water Authority. The point, however, is that Metropolitan uses State Water Project facilities in its standard operations. To dismiss that use as one of convenience alone minimizes the operational constraints placed on a regional water agency that transports water from multiple sources to multiple agencies.
As discussed above, the trial court properly found the water stewardship rate to be supply-related, not transportation-related, so that its inclusion as a component of the wheeling rate and exchange agreement transportation rates is also unlawful under the common law.16 Having made that determination, we need not evaluate the validity of that rate under the other provisions on which the trial court relied.
D. Proposition 26
The Water Authority asserts, and the trial court found, that the system access and system power rate components in the wheeling and exchange agreement transportation rates violate a constitutional provision enacted as Proposition 26 requiring voter approval for tax levies (Cal Const., art. XIII C, § 1).17
All taxes imposed by a local governmental entity are subject to voter approval. (Cal Const., art. XIII C, § 2, subd. (b).) Proposition 26, adopted in 2010, expanded the definition of a tax to include "any levy, charge, or exaction of any kind" except specified charges and assessments. (Id., § 1, subd. (e).) Among the exclusions from the definition of a tax is "[a] charge imposed for a specific government service or product provided directly to the payor that is not provided to those not charged, and which does not exceed the reasonable costs to the local government of providing the service or product."18 (Id., § 1, subd. (e)(2).) Metropolitan argues that Proposition 26 is inapplicable because its water rates are not "imposed" but adopted by a voluntary cooperative of water agencies. Whether or not "imposed," the system access and system power rates are not tax levies subject to voter approval but are service charges that do not exceed the reasonable costs to Metropolitan of providing water conveyance.
Metropolitan "bears the burden of proving by a preponderance of the evidence" that its charge is not a tax and that the amount charged "is no more than necessary to cover the reasonable costs of the governmental activity." (Cal. Const., art. XIII C, § 1.) "We review de novo the question whether the challenged rates comply with constitutional requirements. [Citation.] We review the trial court's resolution of factual conflicts for substantial evidence." (Newhall County Water Dist. v. Castaic Lake Water Agency (2016) 243 Cal.App.4th 1430, 1440 (Newhall).)19
The challenged rates comply with constitutional requirements. As previously discussed, Metropolitan's system access and system power rates recover the cost of its State Water Project transportation payment and other costs incurred in maintaining a water conveyance system. Metropolitan provides a specific service (use of the conveyance system) directly to the payor (a member agency) that is not provided to those not charged and which does not exceed the reasonable costs to Metropolitan of providing the service. (Cal. Const., art. XIII C, § 1, subd. (e)(2).)
The Water Authority relies on Newhall to argue that Metropolitan's water rates violate Proposition 26 but that case presents a far different factual situation. In Newhall, a wholesale water agency's rate for supplied water was composed of a volumetric charge and a fixed fee based on a retail water agency's water usage of both water supplied and groundwater not supplied by the wholesaler. (Newhall, supra, 243 Cal.App.4th at pp. 1436-1438.) "Because the rates are based on total water demand, the more groundwater a retailer uses, the more it pays under the challenged rates. The use of groundwater demand in the rate structure necessarily means that, in effect, the [wholesaler] is charging for groundwater use." (Id. at p. 1446.) The court concluded that the wholesale water agency "cannot, consistent with Proposition 26, base its wholesale water rates on the retailers' use of groundwater, because the [wholesaler] does not supply groundwater." (Id. at p. 1441.) "[T]he demand for a product the Agency does not supply —groundwater—cannot form the basis for a reasonable cost allocation method: one that is constitutionally required to be proportional to the benefits the rate payor receives from (or the burden it places on) the [wholesale] Agency's activity." (Id. at p. 1442.)
Here, Metropolitan charges for a service it supplies—water conveyance—and that charge is founded on the costs borne by Metropolitan in maintaining the conveyance system. The volumetric system access and system power rates paid by the Water Authority bear a fair and reasonable relationship to the benefits it receives from its use of the conveyance system and the burden its use places on that system.
E. Government Code section 54999.7
The trial court held that Metropolitan's water rates also violate a Government Code provision regulating public utility service rates. The statute provides: "Any public agency providing public utility service may impose a fee, including a rate ․ for any product, commodity, or service provided to a public agency ․ Such a fee for public utility service, other than electricity or gas, shall not exceed the reasonable cost of providing the public utility service." (Gov. Code, § 54999.7, subd. (a).)
Metropolitan claims the statute applies to retail utility agencies alone, not to a wholesale water agency like itself. We need not address this issue because, for the reasons previously discussed, the system access and system power rates do not exceed the reasonable cost of providing water transportation. Whether or not the statute applies, it has not been violated.
As the trial court held, to the extent that the price Metropolitan charged the Water Authority for wheeling was based on an unlawful rate, there was a breach of the amended exchange agreement providing for future prices "equal to the charge or charges set by Metropolitan's Board of Directors pursuant to applicable law and regulation and generally applicable to the conveyance of water by Metropolitan on behalf of its member agencies." Since we have concluded that Metropolitan's system access rate was not improperly included in the wheeling charges, there was no breach in that respect and damages should not have been calculated on that erroneous premise. Since the water stewardship rate was unlawfully charged for the conveyance of water, there was a breach of the agreement in that respect. The Water Authority is entitled to recover damages limited to the overcharges attributable to the unlawful inclusion of the water stewardship rate.
Metropolitan has made several assertions on appeal denying an enforceable contract and actionable breach but none is persuasive. The contract was not illegal at its inception for including a variable price term that was ultimately found to contain an unlawful rate component. Also, contrary to Metropolitan's arguments, the evidence sufficiently establishes a violation of the contractual price term, not just the wheeling rate, and actionable injury is shown by payment of a water stewardship rate unrelated to the transportation services provided.
We must remand the matter for a redetermination of damages based solely on overcharges from inclusion of the water stewardship rate. Prejudgment interest must also be recalculated. On this subject, Metropolitan contends the statutory rate of interest was wrongly used in the original proceedings because the exchange agreement stipulates a contractual rate. This contention is unsupported by the terms of the exchange agreement, as the trial court rightly held.
G. The Water Authority's preferential right to water supplies
Metropolitan contends the trial court misapplied a statutory provision that establishes a formula for the preferential right of Metropolitan member agencies to obtain available water supplies in the event of a shortage. (Wat. Code Appen., § 109-135.) The statute grants member agencies "a preferential right" to Metropolitan-supplied water proportionate to the member's past payments toward Metropolitan's capital and operating costs, excluding payments for the "purchase of water."20 (Ibid.) The trial court found "the Exchange Agreement was not an agreement pursuant to which [the Water Authority] obtained water from [Metropolitan], but instead an agreement pursuant to which [Metropolitan] in effect conveyed water on behalf of [the Water Authority]." Thus, the Water Authority's "payments under the exchange agreement must be included in the preferential rights calculation." We agree with this conclusion.
Metropolitan's major source of revenue has shifted from property taxes to water sales, making the exclusion of water purchases from the calculation of preferential rights of increasing significance and contention. (San Diego County Water Authority v. Metropolitan Water Dist., supra, 117 Cal.App.4th at p. 23.) In prior litigation between the parties, this district court of appeal upheld Metropolitan's interpretation of the preferential rights statute to mean that amounts paid for water purchases are not to be taken into account in determining preferential rights even when those amounts are calculated to include the recovery of capital and operating costs. (Id. at pp. 24-25.) The court held that "where the operating expenses and capital costs of Metropolitan are included in the rate charged for the water" a member is not "entitled to receive preferential rights credits for that amount of the water charges attributable" to those costs and expenses. (Id. at p. 25.)
Metropolitan excludes from its calculation of preferential rights all volumetric payments for the purchase of Metropolitan water, including the supply rate and transportation rate components. The Water Authority does not challenge that methodology here. The only question presented on this appeal is whether the Water Authority's payments under the exchange agreement are for the purchase of Metropolitan water and thus properly excluded from the calculation of preferential rights.
We "independently judge the text of the statute, taking into account and respecting" the interpretation of its meaning accorded by the administrative agency charged with its enforcement, here Metropolitan. (Yamaha Corp. of America v. State Bd. of Equalization (1998) 19 Cal.4th 1, 7.) We review the interpretation of a written contract de novo unless the interpretation turns upon the credibility of extrinsic evidence. (Coopers & Lybrand v. Superior Court (1989) 212 Cal.App.3d 524, 529.)
The exchange agreement cannot fairly be construed to constitute a purchase of water from Metropolitan within the meaning of the preferential rights statute. The purpose, structure and terms of the contract make it clear that the Water Authority is not purchasing water from Metropolitan but from Imperial. As the trial court rightly discerned, the Water Authority is exchanging water with Metropolitan "to make use of its own independent supplies."
The contract expressly provides that the water delivered to the Water Authority "shall be characterized as Metropolitan water ․ only for the limited purposes of [the price provision] and the interim agricultural water program." Under the referenced price provision, the Water Authority agreed to pay a price equal to the transportation rates lawfully set for the conveyance of Metropolitan-supplied water. In agreeing to pay rates equal to the Metropolitan-supplied water rates, the Water Authority did not agree it was purchasing Metropolitan water. There was no purchase of Metropolitan water and, thus, payments under the exchange agreement must be credited in the calculation of preferential rights.
IV. The Water Authority's Cross-appeal
A. Metropolitan imposes an unconstitutional condition on member agencies' participation in water conservation programs
Metropolitan uses revenue from its water stewardship rate to fund water conservation programs. The programs are designed to meet Metropolitan's "long term water supply reliability goals" and satisfy a legislative mandate to "expand water conservation, water recycling, and groundwater recovery efforts." (Wat. Code Appen., § 109-130.5.) To implement these programs, Metropolitan "enters into project contracts, on a discretionary basis, with its member agencies" that "require the contracting parties to develop and implement local resource development, conservation and/or desalination projects." Under the local resource development and seawater desalination projects, Metropolitan "pays up to $250 for each acre-foot of water produced" and, under the conservation credits program, Metropolitan "pays a specific amount for each acre-foot of water estimated to be conserved." Metropolitan "anticipates spending hundreds of millions of dollars" on these programs.
Since April 2005, Metropolitan has included in all water conservation program contracts a page-long "Rate Structure Integrity" (RSI) clause. The clause states, in relevant part, that the contracting member agency "agrees and understands" that the existing rate structure "provides the revenue necessary to support" conservation programs. The agency further agrees to address "any and all" disputes regarding the existing rate structure through the administrative process and "if they file or participate in litigation or support legislation to challenge or modify [Metropolitan's] existing rate structure ․ Metropolitan may initiate termination of this agreement." If Metropolitan decides to terminate it must provide written notice to the agency, which may request mediation of the dispute. "If mediation does not result in an agreement acceptable to each party ․ the notice of intent to terminate shall be reinstated." The RSI clause makes no provision for restoring terminated benefits if a court upholds a recipient's challenge to Metropolitan's rates and finds the challenged rates to be illegal.
Metropolitan deems the Water Authority's initiation of the 2010 and 2012 lawsuits at issue on this appeal to be a violation of the RSI clause. Shortly after the Water Authority filed the 2010 action, Metropolitan sent notice of its intention to terminate six water conservation project contracts containing the RSI clause. In response, the Water Authority requested mediation, as contemplated by the RSI clause. After an unsuccessful mediation, there were only four ongoing project contracts subject to termination, as the other two had been fully performed according to their terms. On June 14, 2011, Metropolitan's board voted to terminate two of the remaining four project contracts that contained the RSI provision. The other two contracts were amended to provide payments directly to residents and businesses in the Water Authority's service region. After terminating the agreements, Metropolitan "deferred" all "pending incentive agreements" and declared that future agreements "will not be executed" without further board action.
The Water Authority sought a declaratory judgment declaring invalid and unenforceable the RSI clause. The Water Authority alleges the RSI clause constitutes an "unconstitutional condition" on the Water Authority's ability to receive program funding and is unlawful under Civil Code section 1668 by seeking to exempt Metropolitan from "liability for setting rates in violation of California law." In pretrial proceedings, Metropolitan and the Water Authority each moved for summary adjudication of the declaratory relief cause of action. The trial court adjudicated the claim in Metropolitan's favor. The court found the RSI clause satisfies all elements of an unconstitutional condition but that the Water Authority lacks standing to assert the claim. The court found that the Water Authority, a public agency, "does not have an independent constitutional right to petition the legislature or the courts to challenge Metropolitan's water rates because that is an inherently individual right." The court also found Civil Code section 1668 inapplicable because Metropolitan did not seek to contract away all liability but imposed only a financial disincentive to legal challenges. Following trial, the court entered judgment on this cause of action in favor of Metropolitan. Our review on appeal is de novo. (Guz v. Bechtel National, Inc. (2000) 24 Cal.4th 317, 334; Davis v. Kiewit Pacific Co. (2013) 220 Cal.App.4th 358, 363.)
Metropolitan's stated purpose for the RSI clause is "to ensure funding for its long-term project contracts by protecting the stability of [its] integrated rate structure, which provides the funds necessary to pay for the ․ programs." Metropolitan asserts that " '[l]egal and legislative challenges to Metropolitan's rate structure outside the established public board process could have an adverse impact on Metropolitan's ability to sustain project and program funding and are disruptive and costly.' " Metropolitan concedes that "[t]he possibility that [the Water Authority] might sue to challenge [Metropolitan's] rates was a consideration in proposing the RSI provision."
The Water Authority alleges the RSI clause violates article I, section 3 of the California Constitution.21 The Water Authority contends that the clause purports "to allow Metropolitan, a government entity, to deprive the Water Authority of its constitutional right to petition the courts of this state for redress of legitimate legal grievances against Metropolitan, by allowing Metropolitan the right to unilaterally terminate the project contracts in the event that the Water Authority challenges Metropolitan's rates in court." The Water Authority argues the RSI clause imposes an "unconstitutional condition" on water conservation program funding.
The doctrine of unconstitutional conditions limits the government's power to require one to surrender a constitutional right in exchange for a discretionary benefit. (Dolan v. City of Tigard (1994) 512 U.S. 374, 385.) When receipt of a public benefit is conditioned upon the waiver of a constitutional right, the " 'government bears a heavy burden of demonstrating the practical necessity for the limitation.' " (Robbins v. Superior Court (1985) 38 Cal.3d 199, 213.) "[H]owever well-informed and voluntary that waiver, the governmental entity seeking to impose those conditions must establish: (1) that the conditions reasonably relate to the purposes sought by the legislation which confers the benefit; (2) that the value accruing to the public from imposition of those conditions manifestly outweighs any resulting impairment of constitutional rights; and (3) that there are available no alternative means less subversive of constitutional right, narrowly drawn so as to correlate more closely with the purposes contemplated by conferring the benefit." (Parrish v. Civil Service Com. (1967) 66 Cal.2d 260, 271 (Parrish).)
In Parrish, the California Supreme Court ruled a county could not constitutionally condition the continued receipt of welfare benefits upon the recipients' advance consent to random, exploratory searches of their homes—searches otherwise prohibited by the Fourth Amendment. (Parrish, supra, 66 Cal.2d at pp. 270-275.) In Dolan, the United States Supreme Court protected the Fifth Amendment right to just compensation in holding a city could not condition approval of a building permit on the landowner's dedication of a portion of the owner's property for public use. (Dolan v. City of Tigard, supra, 512 U.S. at p. 385.) The doctrine "vindicates the Constitution's enumerated rights by preventing the government from coercing people into giving them up." (Koontz v. St. Johns River Water Mgmt. Dist. (2013) __ U.S. __, __ [133 S.Ct. 2586, 2594].)
We agree with the trial court that the RSI clause imposes an unconstitutional condition on water conservation funding. Metropolitan argues that payments under the water conservation contracts are not "public benefits" so that the unconstitutional conditions doctrine does not apply. Metropolitan says public benefits are those made available to the general public, such as welfare benefits or the use of public property. But the term "public benefit" simply means a benefit conferred by a government entity, as opposed to a benefit conferred by a private actor. (See Robbins v. Superior Court, supra, 38 Cal.3d at p. 213 [using public benefit and government benefit interchangeably].) The doctrine has been applied to benefits given to a discrete group or organization (Evans v. City of Berkeley (2006) 38 Cal.4th 1, 5-6) and local agencies (Sonoma County Org. of Public Employees v. County of Sonoma (1979) 23 Cal.3d 296, 318-319).
Also unavailing is Metropolitan's argument that the Water Authority waived its right of petition by entering into water conservation contracts containing an RSI clause surrendering that right. In fact, a Water Authority executive testified that the agency entered the contracts under a reservation of rights, believing the RSI clause to be "unlawful and unenforceable." The argument also fundamentally misconstrues the unconstitutional conditions doctrine. Under the doctrine, a waiver of constitutional rights, "however well-informed and voluntary that waiver," is invalid when wrongly conditioned upon receipt of a public benefit. (Parrish, supra, 66 Cal.2d at p. 271.)
We also reject Metropolitan's contention that material issues of fact exist to preclude summary adjudication. The undisputed facts show insufficient justification for the punitive RSI clause. To justify such a measure, Metropolitan must show that (1) conditioning water conservation program payments on member agencies' surrender of their petitioning rights is reasonably related to rate stability; (2) the public value of imposing the condition manifestly outweighs its burden on constitutional rights; and (3) there are no less restrictive means to achieve rate stability. (Parrish, supra, 66 Cal.2d at p. 271.) As the trial court rightly concluded, the evidence shows Metropolitan can obtain sufficient funding for its water conservation programs without barring member agencies from water rate challenges. Metropolitan asserts that "factual issues remain" as to whether the RSI clause is narrowly tailored to achieve rate stability, but Metropolitan has tendered no evidence tending to show the absence of feasible alternatives. To the contrary, Metropolitan itself has advised its bondholders, "To the extent that a court invalidates Metropolitan's adopted rates and charges, Metropolitan will be obligated to adopt rates and charges that comply with any mandates imposed by the court. Metropolitan expects that such rates and charges would still recover Metropolitan's cost of service. As such, revenues would not be affected." If Metropolitan's rates are revised in the manner proposed by the Water Authority in the complaint, other member agencies may pay higher rates unless other actions are taken by the board. "[A]ny impairment of the right to petition, including any penalty exacted after the fact, must be narrowly drawn." (Wolfgram v. Wells Fargo Bank (1997) 53 Cal.App.4th 43, 57.) Our review of the record finds no evidence sufficient to raise a triable issue of fact on the issue.
Although the trial court correctly held the RSI clause contains the elements of an unconstitutional condition, the court denied the prayer to invalidate the provision on the ground that the Water Authority lacks the standing to challenge the condition. In this respect, we conclude the trial court erred. The constitutional right at issue here is the right to petition government for the redress of grievances under article I, section 3(a) of the California Constitution. The right to petition includes the right to seek judicial relief. (E.g., Jersey v. John Muir Medical Center (2002) 97 Cal.App.4th 814, 821.) The trial court, noting that the provision recognizes the right of the people to petition government, held the right applies only to individuals, not to public agencies. The court found no "direct state law on the issue whether governmental actors have a [constitutional] right to petition" and observed that the California Supreme Court has not yet decided the issue. (See Vargas v. City of Salinas (2009) 46 Cal.4th 1, 16-17 [declining to decide the issue].)22 However, several appellate courts, applying the statute authorizing special motions to strike strategic lawsuits against public participation (SLAPP) (Code Civ. Proc., § 425.16), have held that government entities do have First Amendment rights, including the right to petition. (E.g., Santa Barbara County Coalition Against Automobile Subsidies v. Santa Barbara County Assn. of Governments (2008) 167 Cal.App.4th 1229, 1237; Bradbury v. Superior Court (1996) 49 Cal.App.4th 1108, 1117.)
In Bradbury, the court deemed "without merit" the argument that the anti-SLAPP statute protects private citizens but not government entities. (Bradbury v. Superior Court, supra, 49 Cal.App.4th at pp. 1113-1114.) That argument is wrongly "premised on the theory that a government entity and its representatives have no First Amendment rights." (Ibid.) The court held that the request of a county and its representative for investigation by law enforcement agencies was "in furtherance of the right to petition government for grievances." (Id. at p. 1117.) Santa Barbara Coalition concerned a local transit agency; that case likewise held that "government agencies and their representatives have First Amendment rights, and are 'persons' entitled to protection under [Code Civil Procedure] section 425.16, subdivision (b)." (Santa Barbara County Coalition Against Automobile Subsidies v. Santa Barbara County Assn. of Governments, supra, 167 Cal.App.4th at p. 1237.)
Although the California Supreme Court approved these cases as a matter of statutory interpretation without reaching the constitutional issues (Vargas v. City of Salinas, supra, 46 Cal.4th at pp. 16-17), the high court expressed no disapproval of these decisions. As the Water Authority rightly observes, the anti-SLAPP statute protects acts in furtherance of the constitutional right of petition, indicating that government agencies' petitioning rights must ultimately be grounded in the Constitution. Although federal courts are divided on the issue, the Ninth Circuit, as well as the Second, Third, and Seventh Circuits, have recognized in the context of Noerr-Pennington 23 and other issues that government agencies are protected by the First Amendment right to petition. (Manistee Town Center v. City of Glendale (9th Cir. 2000) 227 F.3d 1090, 1093; see Mosdos Chofetz Chaim, Inc. v. Village of Wesley Hills (S.D.N.Y. 2010) 701 F.Supp.2d 568, 598-602.)
In holding that San Diego Water Authority has no constitutional right to petition, the trial court relied primarily on Star-Kist Foods, Inc. v. County of Los Angeles (1986) 42 Cal.3d 1, 5-10 (Star-Kist). That case upheld the standing of local and county governments to challenge a state law exempting from ad valorem taxation business inventories of foreign origin or destination shipped through the state. "Standing" in the context of that case referred "not to traditional notions of a plaintiff's entitlement to seek judicial resolution of a dispute, but to a narrower, more specific inquiry focused upon the internal political organization of the state: whether counties and municipalities may invoke the federal Constitution to challenge a state law which they are otherwise duty-bound to enforce." (Id. at pp. 5-6, fn. omitted.) In upholding the right of the local government agencies to challenge a state law as interfering with Congress' exclusive control over commerce, the court distinguished the "structural" rights at issue in that case and in cases arising under the Constitution's supremacy clause from individual rights that governmental entities have no right to enforce against the state. (Id. at p. 8.)24 "Counties and cities must look to the state Constitution and the Legislature for their creation and delegated powers. [Citation.] Counties are 'merely ․ political subdivision[s] of state government, exercising only the powers of the state, granted by the state, created for the purpose of advancing "the policy of the state at large ․" ' [Citation.] Though municipalities may enjoy a greater degree of autonomy with regard to local affairs [citation], they too are subject to the sovereign's right to extend, withdraw or modify the powers delegated." (Id. at p. 6.) It is this "legislative control over cities and counties" that animates the rule that "subordinate political entities, as 'creatures' of the state, may not challenge state action as violating the entities' rights under the due process or equal protection clauses of the Fourteenth Amendment or under the contract clause of the federal Constitution. 'A municipal corporation, created by a state for the better ordering of government, has no privileges or immunities under the federal constitution which it may invoke in opposition to the will of its creator.' " (Ibid.)
The dictum in Star-Kist on which the trial court relied has no application in the present case. It has long been recognized that "[a] municipal corporation, created by a state for the better ordering of government, has no privileges or immunities under the Federal Constitution which it may invoke in opposition to the will of its creator." (Williams v. Baltimore (1933) 289 U.S. 40, 53; see 13 C. Wright, A. Miller, & E. Cooper, Fed. Practice and Proc. (1975) § 3531, p. 234 ["Political subdivisions of states have been held to lack constitutional rights against the creating state, a conclusion that is at times translated into a lack of standing to challenge state policies."].) But the Water Authority does not seek to invoke privileges "in opposition to the will of its creator" but to a co-equal public agency. It is not asserting any right against the state that has created it. Suits between public agencies are hardly uncommon. Although there assuredly is a "long line of cases which hold that a public entity, being a creature of the state, is not a 'person' within the meaning of the due process clause, and is not entitled to due process from the state" (Santa Monica Community College Dist. v. Public Employment Relations Bd. (1980) 112 Cal.App.3d 684, 690), the Water Authority is not asserting a right to due process of law, or equal protection of the law, rights that understandably are principally for the benefit of natural persons. The right to petition the courts for redress of unlawful acts, in contrast, is not inherently a right applicable only to natural persons. The California Constitution confers on public agencies a multitude of rights and powers, many of which undoubtedly would become meaningless if the agencies were powerless to enforce them. It is no stretch to find inherent in these rights and powers constitutional recognition of the right to petition the courts for protection of the agencies' legal rights.
Star-Kist pointed out that one reason for recognizing the standing of the public agencies in that case was that there was "a real possibility that the constitutionality of the Legislature's scheme ․ would have gone unchecked absent challenge by those entities charged with administration of the program." (Star-Kist, supra, 42 Cal.3d at p. 9.) Similarly here, if the Water Authority—an intermediary in the delivery chain of water to the ultimate consumer—cannot challenge the rates charged by Metropolitan, any unlawful rates that Metropolitan may charge undoubtedly would go unchecked. In a case such as this one, the right to petition, if successfully asserted, will indirectly inure to the benefit of the natural persons who ultimately purchase the water to which Metropolitan's rates apply. Sound public policy thus militates strongly in favor of recognizing the constitutional basis for the water agency's statutory right (Gov. Code, § 945) to seek judicial relief. As the Ninth Circuit has stated in holding that the First Amendment right to petition protects government actors, "[t]his kind of petitioning may be nearly as vital to the functioning of a modern representative democracy as petitioning that originates with private citizens." (Manistee Town Center v. City of Glendale, supra, 227 F.3d at p. 1093; see also Mariana v. Fisher (3d Cir. 2003) 338 F.3d 189, 200 ["Governmental petitioning is as crucial to the modern democracy as is that of private citizens."].)
Because the Water Authority is entitled to judgment on its declaratory relief cause of action declaring the RSI clause invalid and unenforceable as an unconstitutional condition, we need not address other possible grounds for striking the offensive provision. We need not decide whether the provision, although admittedly included in the water conservation program contracts with the "object, directly or indirectly" of insulating Metropolitan from suits for the violation of law, does not run afoul of Civil Code section 1668 because it does not "exempt" it from liability,25 or whether the provision violates broader principles of unconscionability and public policy.
The trial court found the Water Authority to be the prevailing party in the litigation and awarded it attorney fees of almost $9 million pursuant to a contractual fee provision contained in the parties' amended exchange agreement. (Civ. Code, § 1717.) The award represents fees incurred through phase one of trial. The Water Authority asserts the trial court misconstrued the scope of the agreement's attorney fee provision in denying it an additional $2.6 million for prosecuting the second phase of trial.
Reversal of the judgment will necessitate a redetermination of the prevailing party on remand, as the Water Authority is no longer the possessor of a "simple, unqualified win." (Hsu v. Abbara (1995) 9 Cal.4th 863, 876.) On remand, the trial court must determine if one of the parties "recovered a greater relief in the action on the contract" than the other (Civ. Code, § 1717, subd. (b)(1)) or if the results of the litigation are sufficiently mixed that no party may be said to have prevailed. (Hsu, supra, at pp. 874-876.) While the prevailing party determination may change, the scope of the contractual fee provision remains relevant and requires our consideration.
The provision states, in relevant part, that no party shall seek to modify conveyance charges set under the agreement for a period of five years from its execution but that after the expiration of that time period, "nothing herein shall preclude [the Water Authority] from contesting in an administrative or judicial forum whether such charge or charges have been set in accordance with applicable law and regulation ․ In the event that [the Water Authority] contests a matter pursuant to the foregoing sentence, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recovery of reasonable costs and attorney fees incurred in prosecuting or defending against such contest."
In denying the Water Authority's request for attorney fees incurred in the second phase of trial, the court found: "The fees clause here is highly idiosyncratic; it is not a general 'prevailing party' clause. It is narrowly drafted to cover attorneys' fees in cases challenging rates." The court determined the prevailing party "may only recover attorneys' fees for phase I of the case, which dealt specifically with rates," and not for phase II, which addressed whether Metropolitan breached the contract. Where, as here, interpretation of a contract "does not turn on the credibility of conflicting extrinsic evidence, the trial court's interpretation of the contract is a question of law we review de novo, or independently." (Tribeca Companies, LLC v. First American Title Ins Co. (2015) 239 Cal.App.4th 1088, 1110.)
We see no basis for denying fees incurred in the second phase of trial on the breach of contract claim. We agree with the trial court that the fee clause does not broadly cover all contract actions but is narrowly drafted to cover only claims challenging the rates charged by Metropolitan. We disagree, however, that the breach of contract claim here is not such a claim. The contract claim, like the claims tried in phase one, is founded on the assertion that Metropolitan's charges are unlawfully set. Section 5.2 of the water exchange agreement requires water transportation rates—the contract's price term—be "set in accordance with applicable law and regulation," permits the Water Authority to contest the lawfulness of those rates, and entitles the prevailing party to recover attorney fees incurred in prosecuting "such contest." The Water Authority's breach of contract claim is founded on this contractual provision. In the operative complaint, the Water Authority alleges Metropolitan "breached section 5.2 by setting rates for the conveyance of the Water Authority's purchased water that violate applicable laws and regulations." The contract price and water rates are one and the same. Proving breach of the price term necessarily includes a rate challenge.
The lawfulness of the charges imposed under the exchange agreement was not an issue confined to phase one. Metropolitan asserted throughout trial that its contractual charges were set in accordance with applicable law and regulation. In phase two Metropolitan argued there was no breach of contract because the parties understood charges set pursuant to "applicable law and regulation" included the State Water Project costs and water stewardship rate components, even if the components were invalid as applied to third parties. Both phases of trial thus concerned a dispute over whether charges in the exchange agreement were "set in accordance with applicable law and regulation." The prevailing party in that contest, as determined by the trial court on remand, is entitled to an award of contractual attorney fees.
We note, however, that neither the statutory preferential rights claim tried in phase two, nor the unconstitutional condition issue determined on summary judgment, are within the scope of the attorney fee clause. We leave to the trial court the task of appropriate allocation should this become necessary.
The judgment is reversed and the peremptory writ of mandate vacated. The matter is remanded to the trial court for recalculation of damages, entry of declaratory relief on the Rate Structure Integrity clause, redetermination of the prevailing party, and other proceedings consistent with the views expressed in this opinion. The parties shall bear their respective costs and attorney fees incurred on the appeal and cross-appeal.
SIGGINS, J., Concurring.
I join fully in Justice Pollak's opinion for the court, and write separately to express an additional reason why I believe the Rate Structure Integrity (RSI) provision in the contract between Metropolitan Water District of Southern California (Metropolitan) and the San Diego County Water Authority (Water Authority) is invalid. I believe it is unconstitutional for a different reason than the effect it may have on the right to petition for redress of grievances. In my view, it is inconsistent with the constitutional requirement that water rates be set in the manner prescribed by law because it seeks to evade the statutory scheme that governs the joint use of capacity in water conveyance facilities set forth in the wheeling statutes at division 2, article 4 of the Water Code (§§ 1810-1814). I would conclude it is unenforceable for this reason.
Our state Constitution provides that: "The right to collect rates or compensation for the use of water supplied to any county, city and county, town, or the inhabitants thereof, is a franchise, and cannot be exercised except by authority of and in the manner prescribed by law." (Cal. Const., art. X, § 6.)
The wheeling statutes provide a basis for the Water Authority to use Metropolitan's conveyance facilities upon the payment of fair compensation. (Wat. Code, § 1810.) But those statutes also make clear that "any determination made under this article" can be the subject of a judicial challenge in which "the court shall consider all relevant evidence, and the court shall give due consideration to the purposes and policies of this article." (Wat. Code, § 1813.) Because the RSI conditions the provision of wheeling services under the exchange agreement on the waiver of any judicial remedy for violation of the wheeling statutes, and in fact seeks to insulate Metropolitan's rates from judicial review, I believe it is invalid under application of Parrish v. Civil Service Commission (1967) 66 Cal.2d 260, 271 for reasons expressed by the trial court in its summary judgment ruling and Justice Pollak in his majority opinion.
1. In the trial court, the Water Authority also contended that the rate violates parts of Proposition 13 (Gov. Code, §§ 50075, 50076) and the Metropolitan Water District Act (Wat. Code Appen., § 109-134 [all citations to Water Code Appendix section are to uncodified acts reprinted at 72B West's Annotated Water Code Appendix] ). The trial court deemed these provisions inapplicable and the Water Authority does not contest that conclusion on appeal.
2. The record on appeal is voluminous with an administrative record of approximately 30,000 pages and appendices exceeding 10,000 pages. We provide a summary of the pertinent facts.
3. An acre-foot of water is the amount of water that would cover an acre of land to a depth of one foot, which is 325,851 gallons.
4. Statutes governing wheeling are not restricted to direct delivery of a distinct volume of water but expressly permit commingled water provided "the transferred water is of substantially the same quality as the water in the facility" and "does not result in a diminution of the beneficial uses or quality of the water in the facility." (Wat. Code, § 1810, subd. (b).)
5. The critical provision of the amended exchange agreement reads as follows: "For the term of this agreement, neither [the Water Authority] nor Metropolitan shall seek or support in any legislative, administrative or judicial forum, any change in the form, substance or interpretation of any applicable law or regulation (including the Administrative Code) in effect on the date of this agreement and pertaining to the charge or charges set by Metropolitan's Board of Directors and generally applicable to the conveyance of water by Metropolitan on behalf of its member agencies; provided, however, that ․ after the conclusion of the first five (5) years, nothing herein shall preclude [the Water Authority] from contesting in an administrative or judicial forum whether such charge or charges have been set in accordance with applicable law and regulation."
6. Water Code Appendix section 109-134 provides, in relevant part: Metropolitan's board "shall fix such rate or rates for water as will result in revenue which, together with revenue from any water standby or availability service charge or assessment, will pay the operating expenses of the district, provide for repairs and maintenance, provide for payment of the purchase price or other charges for property or services or other rights acquired by the district, and provide for the payment of the interest and principal of the bonded debt" Metropolitan incurs.
7. Metropolitan's wheeling rate applies only to wheeling by member agencies for up to one year; the charges for other wheeling transactions are negotiated. (Admin. Code, § 4119.)
8. The Water Authority sued Metropolitan and "all parties interested in the validity" of Metropolitan's 2011 to 2014 water rates. A number of Metropolitan member agencies entered the action on the side of Metropolitan and join in this appeal: The City of Los Angeles, acting through the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power; Municipal Water District of Orange County; City of Torrance; Las Virgenes Municipal Water District; West Basin Municipal Water District; Foothill Municipal Water District; Eastern Municipal Water District; Western Municipal Water District; and Three Valleys Municipal Water District. Additionally, member agency Upper San Gabriel Valley Municipal Water District has filed an amicus curiae brief in support of Metropolitan.
9. Damages were based on a rate adjustment. In 2011, one of the years at issue, Metropolitan charged transportation rates totaling $372 an acre foot ($204 system access, $127 system power and $41 water stewardship). The trial court found the lawful rate to be $136 an acre foot ($103 for system access after deduction of State Water Project costs, $33 for system power after deduction of State Water Project costs, and no amount permitted for water stewardship). This reduction in rates resulted in a damages recovery of over $188 million for years 2011 to 2014.
10. Metropolitan filed a separate notice of appeal from the attorney fee award. It seeks reversal of the judgment, which would set aside the award, but makes no claim of error as to the fee award itself.
11. The Water Authority also argues the contention is forfeited for failing to preserve it in the trial court and that Metropolitan should be judicially estopped from asserting the contention as it is inconsistent with a position taken in other litigation. (Evid. Code, §§ 452, subd. (d), 459, subd. (a).) We grant the October 28, 2016 request for judicial notice of the referenced litigation documents but reject the argument that Metropolitan's claim is procedurally barred. It does concern us that Metropolitan failed to include in its appellant's appendix the demurrer to the 2010 complaint and related documents addressing the issue but, nevertheless, we shall reach the merits of an essentially legal issue.
12. A recent case confirms that the wheeling statutes do not limit a conveyance owner's compensation to "incremental marginal costs." (Central San Joaquin Water Conservation Dist. v. Stockton East Water Dist. (2016) 7 Cal.App.5th 1041, 1052-1053.) Reasonable system-wide costs are recoverable. The court found that "a conveyance owner may [not] compel a nonmember agency to pay a wheeling rate calculated on the basis of a strict proportionate share of capital, overhead, maintenance, and other fixed or ongoing costs." (Id. at p. 1055.) The wheeling rate at issue here is not calculated on such a basis and is imposed only on member agencies.
13. The Water Authority claims earlier RMI reports are inconsistent with this conclusion but the cited material does not support the contention. The earlier reports simply state that Metropolitan purchases water from the State Water Project and include a chart of Metropolitan's projected expenditures. The cited pages have nothing to do with the functionalization of costs.
14. The estimated revenue requirement to pay Metropolitan's State Water Project expenses in fiscal year 2003 was supply $48 million, conveyance $127 million and power $107 million.
15. The Water Authority says this statement was "suborned" by Metropolitan. The consultant used language offered by Metropolitan executives to describe State Water Project charges but there is nothing to suggest the consultant did not freely embrace the characterization.
16. Metropolitan is correct in asserting that the holding here does not preclude it from including the water stewardship rate component in its full-service rate.
17. The trial court's Proposition 26 finding concerned rates only for 2013 and 2014.
18. The Water Authority says Metropolitan failed to raise below the payor-specific services exception. In fact, the issue was fully briefed.
19. The parties each request judicial notice of court documents filed in connection with a request to depublish Newhall. (Evid. Code, §§ 452, subd. (d), 459, subd. (a).) We grant the unopposed requests filed August 3 and September 23, 2016.
20. "Each member public agency shall have a preferential right to purchase from the district for distribution by such agency, or any public utility therein empowered by such agency for the purposes, for domestic and municipal uses within the agency a portion of the water served by the district which shall, from time to time, bear the same ratio to all of the water supply of the district as the total accumulation of amounts paid by such agency to the district on tax assessments and otherwise, excepting purchase of water, toward the capital cost and operating expense of the district's works shall bear to the total payments received by the district on account of tax assessments and otherwise, excepting purchase of water, toward such capital cost and operating expense." (Wat. Code Appen., § 109-135.)
21. Article I, section 3(a) of the California Constitution provides: "The people have the right to instruct their representatives, petition government for redress of grievances, and assemble freely to consult for the common good."
22. Likewise, the United States Supreme Court has declined to decide whether government entities have First Amendment rights, or may assert an "unconstitutional conditions" claim. (United States v. Am. Library Assn., Inc. (2003) 539 U.S. 194, 210-211.)
23. See Eastern Railroad Presidents Conference v. Noerr Motor Freight, Inc. (1961) 365 U.S. 127, 136 ("[T]he Sherman Act does not prohibit two or more persons from associating together in an attempt to persuade the legislature or the executive [or a court] to take particular action with respect to a law that would produce a restraint or a monopoly."); United Mine Workers v. Pennington (1965) 381 U.S. 657, 670 ("Joint efforts to influence public officials do not violate the antitrust laws even though intended to eliminate competition.").
24. Certain constitutional rights, like the "guarantees that all citizens enjoy equal protection of the laws and due process of law ․ are not structural limitations on government power in the Supremacy Clause sense, but they are rights given to individual citizens which limit governmental power generally. Such rights accrue to individual citizens, not to units of government." (San Diego Unified Port Dist. v. Gianturco (S.D. Cal. 1978) 457 F.Supp. 283, 290.)
25. Civil Code section 1668 provides: "All contracts which have for their object, directly or indirectly, to exempt anyone from responsibility for its own fraud, willful injury to the person or property of another, or violation of law, whether willful or negligent, are against the policy of the law."

Feb 23, 2012. 7:08 AMReplyLove your project. Awsome when people build their own solutions. You seem like a no-nonsene guy and would value your opinion. I know there are dedicated burners, but not sure how those folk prototype. I was thinking of trying an Arudino board for prototyping, and there appears to be a way to use the board to burn the bootloader and later upload the program on a separate AltaMega chip (link below). As there are apparently infinite ways to get started, could you describe your setup for prototyping/burning? ( http://arduino.cc/en/Tutorial/ArduinoToBreadboard )13diy_bloke
Nov 27, 2011. 3:49 AMReply"Any suggestions?"The possibilities seem endless:A humidity sensor to remind you to water the gardenIndicators for other doors/windows you may forget to closeA PIR or an optical interrupter to give advance warning someone is coming up to the house (can double to see if you had any visitors while u were absent)Switching on/off lights to make potential burglars think you are at home while u r not (switch off the main light downstairs, followed by briefly switching on the light in the bedroom)A switch alarming you when your daugther is climbing down the pergola at nite to be off with her boyfriend who rides a motorcycle (just referring to a classic theme in american movies)Just one question: What happened to the custom that mailmen wld push down the flag on yr mailbox to indicate 'you've got mail' :-)pmounica
Oct 7, 2011. 4:34 PMReplycan i do it using PIC microconroller13diy_bloke
in reply to pmounicaNov 27, 2011. 3:28 AMReplyYes, you can. You can do it basically with any microcontroller, but You'd have to write your own code, unless you can copy what someone else might have done for you.I bet somewhere there is a project like this with a PIC controller and a guy asking: "Can I do this with an Atmel?"2jkster107
Feb 19, 2011. 2:40 PMReplyI'd like to make something like this, but I'm concerned about the distance to my mailbox (one of those community box things). How long were your wiring runs? And have you run into any interference issues using the coaxial line as signal line?I don't have good line of sight for wireless communication either, which makes me sad, since a small wireless sensor would probably be less suspicious then running a wire up to the back of a community mailbox.6BrianH (author)
in reply to jkster107Feb 21, 2011. 8:39 AMReplyI ran about 40 feet of coax from the house, under the driveway to the mailbox. Inside the house there is perhaps another 40 feet of twisted pair to get to my office. I'm not a big fan of wireless since there is always the possibility of RF interference. I've had no false triggering due to noise with the wired solution. The readings from the LDR are relatively stable. In a test version of the project, I had the readings from the sensor displayed on a LCD. This was how I decided on the threshold value. Perhaps you might want to try a combination of wired and wireless. Run a wire where you can, and wireless for the rest of the way. placko
Feb 18, 2011. 10:44 AMReplyWhy are there 5 wires coming out of the enclosure? shouldn't there only be 4? (2 for reed switch, 2 for LDR)6BrianH (author)
in reply to plackoFeb 18, 2011. 7:50 PMReplyThe power also comes in on this connector, and used a common ground. I get the power from my doorbell transformer which is rectified, filtered and reduced to about 7 volts before it enters my little box. Once in the box, it is regulated down to 5v. Actually the connector has one more unused pin, I may use this for another input in the future. I've learned to leave room for expandability during the design - it makes upgrading easier in the future. scottinnh
Feb 18, 2011. 11:26 AMReplyYou could use some cheap wireless daughterboards and save yourself a lot of wiring:http://shop.moderndevice.com/products/rfm12b-radioI don't get why these things are not more popular... people always think wireless is expensive, requiring ZigBee or 802.11..Hope this reminder helps someone. :-)

Theoretical Foundation for Research Progression and Implications Discussion Essay Assignment
Discussion: Theoretical Foundation for Research: Progression and Implications
The more you know, the more you don’t know. I often tell people I was never as smart and wise as I was the day I graduated from my baccalaureate-nursing program. Over the years, I’ve just discovered there’s more and more I don’t know. But that’s the exciting thing. You know, there’s so much out there to learn, so much to look at, so much to investigate, so much to understand. So enjoy that process.
—Dr. Donna Hathaway (Laureate Education, 2014d)
As a doctoral student, you may find yourself marveling at an insight that arises as you read an intriguing journal article, discuss a challenging topic with colleagues, listen to an Instructor’s story, or notice something different in a practice you have observed many times before. At other times, you may feel stuck or even convinced that you are somehow moving backwards on your journey toward earning your PhD.
Rest assured, both successes and challenges provide opportunities for you to grow as a scholar-practitioner. In this Discussion, you consider how your theoretical foundation for research has evolved and is likely to progress as you continue in this doctoral program. You also consider potential implications of this work for nursing research, practice, education, or leadership.
To prepare
Reflect on the information presented during this course and the process you have engaged in to develop your theoretical foundation for research. How has your initial thinking evolved since you first identified your phenomenon of interest? What insights have been surprising or have significantly influenced your theoretical foundation for research?
Next, think about the upcoming courses in your doctoral program of study. What would you most like to investigate or become more skilled at, and how could this benefit your program of research?
Think about the potential implications of your work in this course for a role related to nursing research, practice, education, or leadership that you currently hold or would like to hold in the future.
By Day 3
Post an analysis of how the elements of your theoretical foundation for research have evolved since you first identified your phenomenon of interest. Also, explain what you would most like to explore or learn to benefit your program of research as you move forward in your program of study. Describe one or more potential implications of this work for your current or desired role in nursing research, practice, education, or leadership.
Read a selection of your colleagues’ postings.
By Day 6
Respond to at least two of your colleagues in one or more of the following ways:
Share an insight from having read your colleagues’ postings, synthesizing the information to provide new perspectives.
Validate an idea with your own experience and additional research.
Make a suggestion based on additional evidence drawn from readings or after synthesizing multiple postings.
Expand on your colleagues’ postings by providing additional insights or contrasting perspectives based on readings and evidence.

Laying the blame on gym shoes with a price decline of 3.8 percent, data in a study by the National Sporting Goods Association shows average overall prices for 24 athletic and sports footwear categories were down by 3 percent — $38.88 from the 2001 average of $40.17.
The NSGA said aside from gym shoes — the largest single category — other categories experienced significant declines, including trail running shoes with an average price of $49.68 (down 11.9 percent), aerobic shoes with an average price of $39.71 (down 7.0 percent), and cycling shoes with an average price of $53.67 (down 5.8 percent).
"The 3 percent decline in 2002, following a 0.4 percent downturn in 2001, is the steepest in the last five years and brings the year's overall average almost 2 percent below the average price of $39.70 in 1997," said Thomas B. Doyle, NSGA vice president of information and research. "The strong promotional environment in this year's marketplace accounts for the depth of the decline."
The information on average shoe prices will be included in the NSGA report, "The Sporting Goods Market in 2003," to be published by the association in May. Based on a consumer study of 100,000 U.S. households, the report summarizes 2002 retail sales totals — in units and dollars — for 24 types of athletic and sports shoes, as well as products in more than 20 sport categories.

I spent 45 minutes wandering around the madness of the 30% off sale at Fabric Depot holding my trusty Yoda action figure up to different bolts of fabric, but I think I got some good ones! The polarfleece is super soft and cozy for her hat, and I liked the cheerful orange-stars quilting cotton for her snake — after I chose the dull green and dark brown, the bright safety-orange felt I’d originally picked up felt like it completed a miniature hunting palette or something. So since she’s one and a half and I get to make the costume, stars it is!
I’ll post photos and a tutorial when it’s done… I’m going to finish it early this year (unlike last Halloween when I was still fringing a scarf a half-hour after the party started).
Oh my gosh, this is going to be ADORABLE! I vote that you dress up as Luke and make a backpack to carry her around in, a la Empire Strikes Back.
As a costume designer, I gotta say mixin’ it up with some stars is the perfect way to personalize your expression! Can’t wait to see the tutorial! Halloween has traditionally been a nightmare for people in my profession (“Can you make me a…”), but it’s one redeeming factor is seeing how people enjoy the fruits of their efforts.

Maloney elected administrator for diocese | Sylvia's Site
Maloney elected administrator for diocese
CORNWALL – Father Kelvin Maloney has been elected administrator of the diocese of Alexandria-Cornwall to fill in until a new bishop is chosen.
Paul-Andre Durocher was appointed archbishop of Gatineau late last month, leaving a vacancy at the diocese helm.
A group of six priests from the local diocese, called the College of Consultors, is charged with overseeing the churches in the meantime.
Maloney, originally from St. Andrews West, has been a priest here for 48 years. He also served as administrator before Durocher was installed as bishop nearly 10 years ago. He has held the position of vicar general, and continues to serve as pastor for St. Finnan's Cathedral in Alexandria and St. Catherine of Sienna in Greenfield.
The process to secure a new bishop has begun, but the timeline for when someone will be chosen is uncertain.
1 Response to Maloney elected administrator for diocese
Note that it is Father KeLvin Maloney, NOT Father Kevin Maloney.
Word has been floating about for quite some time of talks of a merger of the Diocese of Alexandria-Cornwall with either the Archdiocese of Ottawa or the Archdiocese of Kingston. I don't know if there's anything to it or not, but I've heard it from enough diverse sources to conclude that it must be at least on the table for discussion?
All is eerily quiet in Cornwall these days. The $60M Cornwall Public Inquiry did its job and did it well. Perry Dunlop went to jail. Canon lawyer/lawyer Jacques Leduc never set foot in jail and is still out and about a free man. Ditto Father Charles MacDonald.
No questions asked of Justice Colin McKinnon.
I could go on and on. Bottom line, it's all over. Buried. There are many with stories to tell – some day, by the grace of God, they will find their tongues – and their courage – to speak publicly.

"Bourbon County SPARK Memorandum of Understanding
Grant to Address Food Insecurity
August 1, 2020 through December 30, 2020
The state of Kansas is facing both a public health and economic crisis. The pandemic and public health emergency of COVID-19 which has resulted in illness, quarantines, school closures, and temporary closure of businesses resulting in lost wages and financial hardship to Kansas citizens.
The federal government through the passage of the CARES Act is supporting states in their efforts to address the health and economic emergency of COVID-19. The State of Kansas has created funding resources for counties through CARES Act funding that is called Strengthening People and Revitalizing Kansas (SPARK). Bourbon County Kansas is responsible for the disbursement of these funds using guidance from the state of Kansas Office of Recovery. This Memorandum of Understanding outlines expectations for your entity.
Food insecurity has been defined by the Bureau of Health Promotion as the disruption of food intake or eating patterns because of lack of money and other resources. Food insecurity may be long term or temporary. Factors that increase risk of food insecurity include income, employment, geographic location and lack of transportation.
Whereas, The Kansas Department of Health and Environment data show Bourbon County's food insecurity rate is 15.9%, ranking the county amongst the worst in the state.
Whereas, Because of this rate, Bourbon County has been identified as an area of high need by the Bureau of Health Promotion.
Whereas, The August 2020 unemployment rate is 7.2% with a 2.8% increase over the year change according to the Kansas Department of Labor.
Whereas, According to Feeding America, the 2020 projected Overall Food Insecurity Rate has seen a 5.2% and the 2020 Child Food Insecurity Rate is projected to reach 11.4%.

Whereas, The Bourbon County community has very limited resources to address such significant and urgent need. Current community resources are limited in geography, hours of operation, and in cold storage.
Whereas, Bourbon County citizens have felt a shortage of food supplies due to COVID related packing plant closures. A system for selling direct to consumers does not currently exist for our local producers, farmers, and ranchers.
Whereas, CHCSEK currently provides food delivery to Crawford County residence and is seeking suitable food storage and warehouse space to serve the Bourbon County area.
Whereas, KansasWorks estimates there are approximately 15 unlicensed daycares within Bourbon County.
Whereas, There are only two childcare centers county wide and each have submitted applications for relief.
Whereas, The community has felt the impact of at least nine business closures from March 1, 2020 through September 25, 2020 from the services industry.
Whereas, Bourbon County and the City of Fort Scott have seen over thirty local businesses from the services industry temporarily closed at one point in time since March 1, 2020 for health and safety related causes as a result of the Coronavirus pandemic.
The objectives of the Bourbon County Commission's Economic Development/ Resilient Food Systems Grant are to:
Manage current and immediate conditions as a result of the COVID pandemic March 1-December 31, 2020;
Implement financially sustainable programs to address current food insecurity;
Increase access to nutritious and safe food for all residents;
Enhance economic activities and build resilient food systems related to local food production and consumption;

Support local producers, processors, and distributors of food products

She said there were inconsistencies with the total acres and the total amount of wind turbines of the planned windfarm. She said the F.A.A. website page lists 118 turbines. She asked the Commissioners to curb the expansion or halt the project all together. Lynne said that Jayhawk has agreed to meet to clarify questions. Jeff said the total windfarm is 195 megawatts; he said approximately 150 of those are in Bourbon County and the rest are in Crawford County. Jeff said the map does show some near the Hiattville Lake; he said this is an older map and said Jayhawk knows they can't build close to that body of water. Anne questioned if they could continue to expand and if so, what compensation will Bourbon County receive for the expanded boundaries.

The focus of IndieCan Entertainment is independent films. As a distributor, Federgreen plans to follow the same principle that drives him as a filmmaker: give Canadians films that they want to watch. “Stories that affect people, that they talk about, that they recommend to their friends; those are the ones I want to bring to audiences across Canada.” But Federgreen knows very well that, while making films is one challenge, getting them seen is quite another. “There are more than 200 indie films made in Canada each year, less than 10% of which are distributed,” he says. “Many of them deserve an audience. First-time feature filmmakers are trying to establish a career, and if their work can’t be seen then it’s tough to get money for the next project.” The same goes for independent, low-budget international films; Federgreen wishes to give Canadian audiences the chance to experience the global sensibilities in these films and, in turn, the chance for the independent filmmakers creating them to showcase their work.
Federgreen has been making films for almost 20 years: Still Mine, One Week, Score: A Hockey Musical, I’m Yours, Moon Point, High Life, and many more. His projects have received widespread recognition at international film festivals, including the prestigious Toronto International Film Festival, and nominations for a Gemini and the Directors Guild of Canada awards.

Kevinmuldoon.com: 26 Landing Page Templates to Make Your Sales Explode
An effective landing page means far more to your business than you could ever imagine.
It's a fact that products and services receive more conversions when you layout the benefits, media components and pictures in a well-designed landing page.
This is particularly true if you plan on paying for Google Ads since a user who clicks through one of those ads doesn't want to be sent to a regular product page, or worse, your website's homepage.
A landing page presents a story behind your product or service, and it indicates that you've done the work needed to provide a beautiful user interface for the people who stop by.
Just about every business should be utilizing landing pages, from mobile app developers to restaurants. If you're troubled about setting one up, we recommend opting for one of the best landing page templates below.
I've done the work for you and compiled a few with multiple demos, along with dozens of options for varying niches. Enjoy!
1. Flatpack – $18
The Flatpack landing page package is the closest thing to being a multi-purpose template. It comes with a wide variety of demos, so businesses like software companies, restaurants, car renters, construction companies and travel agencies can all take advantage of the theme.
The landing page integrates with items like PayPal, MailChimp and Campaign Monitor, and it has over 500 font icons and 12 popup forms for intriguing your customers when they land on the page.
The enhanced form builder removes the need to touch any code, while the over 100 animation effects grab attention as well. The theme supports dozens of industries, so I would recommend checking this one out.
2. Startuply – $15
The Startuply theme provides an HTML landing page, with over 25 total pages and 10 HTML forms to play around with. What's more is that it allows for over five eCommerce pages, expediting the buying process even more. The fully responsive theme has three layouts and five color schemes. Furthermore, it includes Font Awesome support.
Each of the templates include PSDs, allowing for even further customization. In addition, an icon set of over 1000 iOS 7 vectors is packaged into the theme. Overall, we highly recommend the theme for small businesses and startups, as the primary focus is grabbing email addresses and making sales.
3. Launchkit – $19
The Launchkit landing page template comes with the Variant Builder, a rather popular HTML page builder. We like the landing page package for marketing firms and regular businesses, since it provides real world demo pages with multiple color options.
The over 50 unique content blocks improve your versatility while designing, while the unique header, footer and navigation types guide people through the purchasing process. The nine fonts help out with branding, while you can also choose to make a multi-page site if needed.
Along with video backgrounds, MailChimp integration and wide layouts, the Launchkit theme delivers on every level.
4. Lista – $14
The Lista template serves as a newsletter signup landing page, but it also provides a wonderful module for building your forms. The responsive landing page is all about bringing in more email subscriptions, and it does that with the help of a MailChimp integration.
The ten color schemes help you find your brand, while the ad copy can be used for making a little extra money. Both images and videos are supported, along with testimonials, social comments, call to actions, brief descriptions and more.
5. Select – $14
The Select template has a large collection of demos to choose from. For example, the screenshot listed below shows fields for finding a home. Over 31 other pages are provided, including landing pages for artists, finance, car rentals, shopping, restaurants, travel, medicine and more.
Customize the images, colors and fonts that show up in your popups, and utilize the audio sections for music, videos and podcasts. The theme includes social sharing buttons and a drag and drop page builder to keep your hands free of coding.
6. Conversion – $10
Consider the Conversion theme if your product or service has a modern or technological spin. The template has social media buttons towards the top of the page, along with contact information and an area for people to click through and buy your product.
Start the process with five page templates, and use the infinite color variations to achieve the look you desire. This is a completely customizable template, with five layered Photoshop files to take advantage of. The theme is simple and clean, but it gets the job done for tech companies.
7. Event – $14
As you may have assumed from the template title, Event runs the show for when you're trying to get people interested in an event. For example, the primary header of the landing page shows a large static image or slider, with overlaying text and a button for people to register.
The Bootstrap 3 template has Font Awesome icons and a subscribe form for collecting information from the attendees. The register form is fully customizable, and each of the items (such as sliders, tabs, carousels and accordions) look wonderful on mobile devices.
8. Kane – $13
With the Kane template you gain access to one of the best drag and drop builders on this list. In addition, you can choose between dark and light styles, eight inner color schemes and two regular layout styles. The Bootstrap theme is completely responsive, and it provides a beautiful video module for welcoming visitors.
The MailChimp integration runs perfectly when trying to collect more email addresses. Not to mention, you receive several app mockups, hundreds of icons and a semi-parallax background image. Overall, the template appears nicely for app companies, but I'm not sure I would use it for anything else.
9. Layer – $11
The Layer theme gives you yet another way to present your app in a landing page format. The theme is built on Bootstrap, and it has an ultra responsive layout with 10 color schemes. The AJAX contact form is a nice bonus, but the MailChimp form is where the real value resides.
The Layer theme comes packaged with over 500 icons and Google Fonts, and the useful shortcodes and pages come in handy for sidebars, timelines and grids. The more than 20 predefined layouts contain options like text sliders, static content, MailChimp forms and videos.
10. Professional Photography – $15
Unless you're a creative marketing firm, the only type of company that's going to find this one useful is a photography studio. That said, the template has an insane number of tools such as social media buttons, quote buttons, animation effects, seven color schemes and a parallax version.
Some of the content rows offer areas for talking about the people on your team, along with a spot to talk about your photography services. The full portfolio has filters for guiding clients to the right information, and you also get testimonials and pricing tables.
11. Proland – $17
Consider the Proland landing page template in a situation where you need to integrate with both PayPal and MailChimp for selling a single product. The theme works well for beginners, since it provides video support and lots of documentation.
The modern and trendy design runs on mobile devices, and it has eight homepages with different variations. What's more is you get a Kickstarter and Indiegogo campaign page. Some of the highlights include exit intent and dedicated product popups, both of which convert more visitors into customers.
12. Eventus – $16
The Eventus template is yet another solution when you're trying to collect information for a conference, trade show or another type of business event. The theme features a short description in the header area, along with a registration box.
The Nivo Slider and Google Fonts allow for more creativity on the page, but overall, it's a rather simple and professional solution. The media support comes standard, and the layered PSD files ensure that you have all the customization options you need.
13. App On – $7
Since so many app developers are looking for landing pages nowadays, we figured it best to cover at least a handful of them. The App On template features one of the sleekest layouts you can find, with modern designs and both dark and light versions. The fullscreen parallax image is something to marvel at, and the video background helps out as well.
Around 15 predefined colors sit in the theme waiting for your customization. Furthermore, you get different slider options and two menu styles. The theme is built using Bootstrap, and it has two blog pages in case you'd like to share some content.
14. Book – $15
Try selling a work of fiction or non-fiction with the Book landing page template and you're sure to give your customers a better user experience. The theme has a responsive layout for accessing on mobile devices. It also provides a working contact form and a MailChimp integration.
The Twitter feed shows users where to access you on social media, and the parallax scrolling adds a bit of creativity to your overall design. The main part of the template shows an image of your book, which leads into a call to action and button for people to buy the book.
15. Appstar – $13
The Appstar theme delivers a unique branding experience for your app, with an impressive flat and responsive make-up and six intros to get your design started. The multiple intros intrigue our guests, so you can show numerous images of your app or stick to one of the most prominent pages.
The theme has a responsive slider towards the top of the page, and when you scroll down you'll notice purchase buttons, retina ready icons and a responsive lightbox. The testimonials slider is something that will improve your conversions, while the newsletter signup boosts the number of email addresses you obtain.
16. Malooka – $14
The Malooka template contains only one page, with a large image slider for a header and social media buttons to get people following you on places like Facebook and Twitter. This is an HTML5 landing page template, and it includes eight layouts, which we recommend for more creative businesses.
The fully responsive design has support for Google Maps. Therefore, brick and mortar shops have an advantage with this one. The working newsletter form doesn't need a database, and the Flickr and Twitter feeds keep users updated on what's going on with your company. It's an easy-to-customize option, with a clean design and wonderful media support.
17. Products and Services – $15
The Products and Services template allows you to share information about, you guessed it, products and services. The theme contains several demos to start with. So, for example, one of them is all about featuring bakery products. The responsive template has a smooth page scrolling effect, and the Font Awesome icons accumulate interest.
The simple AJAX contact form combines nicely with the subscribe form, while the PSD files engage the more advanced developers. You have the options to go with service or product based designs, so technically any product or service works on the theme. You can also choose between wide menus or slide-in menus.
18. Responsive Bootstrap App Landing Page – $12
Consider the Responsive Bootstrap App Landing Page if you'd like a few extra button options towards the header area. This is another one of the app landing page solutions, but we mainly like it because of the overlaying header elements.
The clean template features Font Awesome icons, Google Fonts, a video background and pricing tables. When you scroll down the one page layout, you'll see a parallax effect, an area to talk about your app, download buttons, social media links, video support and screenshot modules for your app.
19. Creatorica – $13
The Creatorica landing page template provides a responsive one page setup for creative or technological companies. One of the demos has screenshots for an app, yet a few of the other options focus more on a general slider. The template has seven colors to choose from, and the AJAX contact form gets people to keep in touch with you.
The theme is based on Bootstrap, and it includes several interesting CSS animations to demand attention from your customers. Choose from an image, slider or app background, and consider taking advantage of the portfolio with filters. Some of the other sections include a pricing module, company history section and contact form.
20. eBookie – $23
Here's another landing page to effectively sell your book. This one focuses more on the eBook world, yet I can't imagine selling a physical book would be any different. The coolest part is that the theme comes with a simple PDF eBook creator for converting your books within minutes. They even throw in a book cover creator.
You'll find buttons that link to product pages, along with testimonials and areas to feature quotes from the book. My favorite section offers small chapter previews for giving readers a taste of what you're selling. The eBookie landing page also features a pricing module, social sharing buttons and a spot to talk about the author.
21. Cuvapag – $9
Cuvapag gives you the tools necessary to highlight software and app features. Built on HTML5 and CSS3, the Cuvapag template contains a responsive layout and retina ready icons. The four page layouts include Landing, About, Feature and Term options.
Marketing your work is done with the help of a large video embedded in the header area. You also gain access to overlaying text and a button for selling your items. Other than that, it's a pretty simple template. You receive a few links for social media and a row to show off some testimonials.
22. Piecia – $14
Piecia presents a crisp, lightweight solution for those not interested in going crazy with tons of features and animations. The template runs on HTML5 and CSS3 for acceptable performance, and the many variants with the design get you going in the right direction in terms of branding.
Font Awesome icons and Google Fonts go well with the responsive layout, while the free support and solid documentation helps out beginners. Six layouts give you the opportunity to move around your subscription form, and the various one page rows include options for team member pictures, features, pricing plans, FAQs and social media buttons.
23. BizNex – $21
The BizNex theme offers a wide range of tools for the modern business. For example, you can talk about your company in one of the rows, then go onto an area that describes all of the people from your team. The portfolio includes filters for guidance, and the blog is there for keeping people on your page for a longer period of time.
A full contact form comes along with the theme, and you can upload a large image in the header. Furthermore, several overlaying text modules and buttons go atop that header for improving conversions. This is a fully responsive landing page template, and you gain access to parallax effects.
24. Odiss – $15
If you're running a travel company that needs a landing page for bookings, go for the Odiss template. The complete booking system has a full screen video and responsive design. The primary functionality allows you to collect bookings from your customers, but you also get some cool animations, preloaders and parallax effects.
The drag and drop slider comes in handy, while the video block is there to feature some of the places your customers can travel. The six intro types include images, videos, sliders, parallax images, parallax videos and parallax sliders. As for the trip booking app, it asks users to view the travel description, select the trip, then book the trip.
25. Constructive – $15
The Constructive landing page theme empowers businesses like construction firms, engineering companies and interior designers. The unique and responsive design has more than 11 landing pages packaged into your purchase. Therefore, you can get content for things like car repairs and landscaping.
The default layouts are designed for lead generation, subscribers, clickthroughs and videos. Use the background slider to showcase some of your work, and utilize the parallax effects to engage your visitors. The Bootstrap theme has a modern and clean design, and it comes with Google Fonts for adjusting your typography.
26. Yoga – $13
The Yoga template delivers a landing page for just about any form of health business. Five color options boost the branding outlook for your page, while the working contact form eliminates the need to go out and get a plugin. The teacher training template can get your online course on the right track, while the Thank You page generates a warm response for customers.
The theme has a pricing table for selling your courses, and you can feature videos and other forms of media in your header. Quite a few content rows come with the theme, such as one that reveals testimonials from past students. In addition, the theme provides a beautiful email subscribe form, call to action buttons and a spot to share information about your teachers.
From app landing pages to one page websites for yoga studios, the options are rather impressive. The good part about building a landing page is that you don't have to worry about additional pages throughout your site. In addition, the templates we talked about above have tons of features that generally only require you to type in your own content.
If you have any questions about the best landing page templates, feel free to let us know in the comments section below. We also like seeing your suggestions if you've had success with a landing page for your own business.

Chennai, Feb 13 (PTI) The Barmy Army may not be in full force at Chepauk owing to the COVID-19 pandemic-related restrictions but they are keen to make their presence felt during the second India-England Test.
A group of six belonging to the Barmy Army from various parts of India are in the city to catch action from the match that got underway here on Saturday.
According to Joe Phelan, who works in New Delhi, 'the atmosphere is fantastic.' 'There's six of us, from Mumbai, Delhi and Hyderabad and we have made it here to support the England cricket team. It is a nice feeling to be at the ground and cheer for our team,' he told PTI.
Asked if he and the others of the group gave it a lot of thought before making the trip to the southern city, Phelan responded in the negative.
'No... the (COVID cases) numbers have dropped a lot, we took precautions, wearing our PPEs but we were pleased to be coming here,' he added.
Phelan said he was enjoying the atmosphere at the M A Chidambaram Stadium and there was a lot of buzz around it.
'The atmosphere is fantastic... I think if there was 50,000 or 60,000 it would be incredible. Everyone is good natured here and love their cricket. There is a lot of noise and buzz and it is great fun,' he added.
Phelan said the Barmy Army enjoys singing, adding 'win or lose', we always sing as the six-member group enjoyed the day under the sun by belting out some songs.
He said it was good that fans had been allowed entry which meant members of the Barmy Army here could come down to watch the England team in action.
'It is good that the authorities permitted entry of spectators into the stadium which meant we could come down and watch the match at the stadium.
'We hope to watch play here for two days before getting back to work. Fans are a huge part of sport, and they help it grow,' he added.
On the COVID-19 protocols, he said, 'I see most people have got their masks on. I would say they realise the risk they face. It is good to be among the spectators...' The Barmy Army member also said the authorities had made good arrangements for the fans, with sanitisers being provided, apart from health kiosks.
'Yeah, the arrangements are fine. We got our own sanitisers and our own masks. Sanitisers are being provided for the spectators and health kiosks have been set up. There is good signage here, telling people what to do,' he added.
Phelan appreciated the efforts of the cricketers to entertain the people and said by watching sporting action, many like him felt better during the lockdown.
'COVID-19 has taken a toll on everyone. Sport has helped us, those who like sports feel a lot better. There is very bad lockdown in the UK now. Here in India, we have had a long lockdown.
'The lockdown made us remember to appreciate what normal life is like. So we are very lucky to be able to come here. Appreciate the cricketers for the effort they make to give us some entertainment,' he said.
Asked what he thought about the day's proceedings, Phelan said India opener Rohit Sharma, who scored a sparkling ton, was brilliant.
'It is fantastic. Rohit has been brilliant and England have worked really hard and there have been a few misses. It has been an enjoyable day for us, though it could be better,' he signed off. PTI SS AH AH

I still remember my first visit to New York City more than two decades ago. Even though I lived in a big metropolitan area at the time, there was something about the buzz of the Big Apple that was unlike anything I’d ever experienced. Instantly, I felt my senses heighten with the hum of cars and taxis, the waft of freshly baked treats coming from street vendors, the flashing billboards of Times Square and the sheer energy in the masses of pedestrians filling the streets.
So, with my son’s 16th birthday coming up, I decided to give him his first glimpse of this magical city. On our trip home, after soaking in as much as we could in two days, he turned to me and said: “I can see why you like this place and I’m definitely coming back!” That’s all I needed to hear.
New York City has some wonderful boroughs worth exploring, but if you only have a weekend, you may want to splurge on a hotel in Manhattan to save on commute time. We stayed midtown at the family-owned Roger Smith Hotel and weren’t disappointed. Established in 1929, this charming boutique hotel—where none of the 132 rooms are alike—features all the necessities when travelling with teens (free Wi-Fi, huge showers and complimentary snacks in the lobby). Plus, it was ideally located within walking distance of Grand Central Station, Times Square and dozens of great eateries.

Bridgestone partners with NFL stars to highlight clutch performance off the field at Super Bowl LIII
Jan 30, 2019 mashville, tenn.
Sunday marks the 53rd Super Bowl and the 12th for Bridgestone as the Official Tire of the NFL®. To bring its NFL partnership to life, the brand is creating a variety of interactive fan experiences throughout Atlanta and maximizing the opportunities that the Super Bowl offers to engage our consumers, customers and employees. It also offers a natural opportunity to communicate the Bridgestone "Clutch Performance" message to the game's passionate fans.
Bridgestone tires are engineered to perform when it matters most for drivers on the road, so it works with the NFL to celebrate the players who deliver similar clutch performances when the game is on the line. But Bridgestone knows that true Clutch Performance goes beyond the field of play, too.
Bridgestone is committed to supporting the communities in which we live, work, and play as part of the company's Our Way to Serve commitment. With that in mind, we're also focused on celebrating and supporting players who are extending the idea of Clutch Performance off the field to make a difference in their local communities. For Super Bowl LIII, Bridgestone is proudly partnering with former Atlanta Falcons running back Warrick Dunn and current Carolina Panthers tight end Greg Olsen to highlight this message.
Bridgestone teamed up with Dunn to support the work he's doing with Warrick Dunn Charities and together surprised a deserving local mother and son – Ethiopian immigrants Lula and Mossab – with tickets to this weekend's big game. Lula also received support from Warrick Dunn Charities to become a first-time homeowner through the organization's Homes for the Holidays program.
Since establishing Warrick Dunn Charities in 1997, Dunn has been able to improve the lives of thousands of children and families. Bridgestone is proud to honor the great work he is doing and to help create memorable moments for families that may not have the opportunity otherwise.
Bridgestone also partnered with Olsen earlier this season to spotlight his work with The Greg Olsen Foundation and the HEARTest Yard initiative, a fund to assist families of children affected by congenital heart disease at Levine Children's Hospital.
Olsen and his wife, Kara, established the initiative in 2012 after their son T.J. was born with a heart defect called hypoplastic left heart syndrome. Together with Levine Children's they established the cutting-edge program providing families of babies born with heart defects with a multitude of services including in-home, private nursing care, physical therapy and speech therapy among other benefits.
Bridgestone is proud to support and spotlight these efforts from both Dunn and Olsen, and will be working with both players in Atlanta to share their stories with media, guests and fans. The company will also present a donation to each player's charity as part of the weekend festivities.
You can learn more about Lula and Mossab's story and Warrick Dunn Charities here and about The Greg Olsen Foundation and the HEARTest Yard here.

The Identification and Design Forest – PM4NGOs
I always wondered why we need to develop the Problem Tree … then the Objectives Tree … then the Alternatives Tree … and finally start developing the Logframe. Once we have identified the core problem, its causes and consequences, why not jumping to develop the Logframe?
Well… Here are some thoughts…
Regardless the amount and quality of the data and information we have collected, developing a Problem Tree is not an individual task. This tool is particularly effective when completed in a participatory manner with a team and variety of stakeholders – especially the beneficiaries' group(s), because they know the problems and context better than anyone else and deeper than any data could be.
This collaborative process compels users to differentiate cause and an effect, seeking for a core problem. Many (most of the) times, the Problem Tree development results in more than one core problem, with complex groups of causes and effects. We can split the resulting complex diagram (tree) in different Problem Trees and select one for the next step (Objective Tree).
The other Problem Trees will help us to understand the surrounding context of the selected problem. They can also be transformed into other Objective Trees. But let us work one by one.
As we work with our team on the problem tree development (participatory), the collective thinking is focused on the negative aspects of the current status and the issues themselves. We are thinking on the "today" and the "problem" (or problems).
Negative thinking can lead to outcomes that we do not want – we are struggled with the problem(s) and we might focus on "we don't want this to continue," instead of "this will get better and improve."
We can take a break between developing the problem and the objective trees and go out with our team for a coffee or lunch. When the team comes back, we can invite them to a mental exercise, teleporting to a positive future. Now it is time to go through each of the problem tree items, turning them into achievements.
Positive thinking leads to optimism – a happier team that more likely interprets the future as a better context and situation. This change from negative to positive thinking creates the environment to work with a powerful solution driven group, instead of a negative one.
The Objective Tree is expected to be a positive (future) mirror of the Problem Tree. It is completely fine that we break the means/causes down as we apply a positive thinking on the previous Problem Tree. But, if the core problem/outcome or any of the key means/causes/effect/impact changes, we should consider giving one step back and reviewing the Problem Tree. Maybe the problem has not been completely explored or the team is still on "negative mode."
Alternatives, intervention outline and assumptions
At this point, our team might work with the implementing partners and consider two critical strategic questions:
Which elements of the objectives tree will be included in the project intervention?
Which elements will not be included in the scope of the project?
These criteria will help the project team and stakeholders to make concrete decisions regarding where the project intervenes, the services it provides, who will be served and how the services are provided.
We can look at each "box" and think on how and if it can be addressed or if it should become an assumption. No Objective Tree items should be deleted as they are part of the means and the effects. The out-of-scope activities are assumptions that will be addressed by a different project or organization to increase chances of the project success.
As we select what are the in-scope and out-of-scope interventions, we must review the Problem and Objective trees and consult supporting teams of our organization and implementing partners. By not doing that, we will end up implementing the wrong project or a project that we do not have the resources, capacity, nor the required knowledge to implement.
We must not be afraid of complex Problem Trees, as issues in the development sector are always complex and connected with several other community aspects. What should worry us are (too) complex projects.
By following the Problem/Objective/Alternatives tree process, we can assure that each problem becomes one project within our capacity, aligned with the community needs and priorities, and connected with the related issues and aspects.
Let's design our project from one tree, with its inherent complexity, and give the forest the appropriate approach, tools, techniques, and methodologies: as a potential program.

Summer is here! The smell of fresh cut grass is lingering in the air, your swimsuits are in rotation drying on the line, the bbq is on and the smell of freshly skewered vegetables and chicken take over the backyard. Longer days filled with sunshine and beautiful evenings spent taking walks and eating outside are finally here and THIS is what life is all about.
The list of things you can do in the summer is endless. From hiking, to kayaking, to surfing, to days spent on the beach, to family parties in the backyard, the list goes on. For me, my favorite thing of them all is to go camping. Once the summer hits, I can't get enough of it.
Camping is one of the best ways to fully immerse yourself in nature and have the best summer experience. Whether it's your annual family camping trip, a guys weekend, a girl's glamping, or just good fun at random, you can't go wrong with being outdoors.
If you're a first time camper or went once and had an ok experience, I encourage you to go! Think about a cool running river or a lake to swim in, frisbees, cookouts, s'mores by the fire, or laying beneath the stars. I can go on for days about the joys of camping however in order to make camping a successful, enjoyable, and fun experience, you must start with the basics.
1. Use a tarp.
In some cases, depending on the terrain and weather you could be fine without one. If you're beach camping you will be completely fine setting up your tent directly on the sand. However, it is always better to use a tarp and place it under your tent. It can prevent holes and tears from appearing on the bottom of the tent as well as prevent moisture from the ground from soaking into your tent and making your experience very uncomfortable. Putting a tarp will keep you and your bedding dry and keep your tent as good as new for longer. Sleep is extremely important not matter where you are so if you set yourself up as best you can, you won't spend your days yawning and wishing you slept better.
2. Freeze your water before you leave.
This is a great trick, especially during those hot summer days! Freeze your water bottles before you leave and place them in your cooler instead of ice. This will keep your food colder longer and on top of that, when they start to thaw, they don't leak! Once they're melted you will have fresh cold water to refresh you from the summer heat.
This also will prevent more single use plastic from all of the bags of ice you would have to pre-buy before your trip. As a lover of outdoors and mother earth, I find it imperative to be more aware of plastic use. If you're using plastic water bottles, re-use them for all of your trips. Always remember to always put your cooler under the shade.
3. Keeping cool.
Being outdoors is great and all but if the days are super hot and you don't have air conditioning to keep you cool, it's important to do little tricks here and there to make yourself a bit more comfortable.
After a long day soaking in the sun you want to come back to a cool and refreshing tent. It is crucial to set up your tent under the shade. With summer temperatures rising you should look for a big tree to set up your tent beneath and never camp in direct sunlight. Always take your tent down during the day. Dissemble it when you wake up, and assemble it once again at sunset. This avoids your tent trapping in the heat all day.
Try to select a tent with a lot of mesh. This is a double bonus because you have more air flowing into the tent and it prevents insects from entering. Get yourself a nice portable fan and you'll sleep like a baby. Don't forget to grab extra batteries because once you start with the fan, you won't be able to sleep without it!
4. Power your adventure.
When the sun goes down and you are camping in the middle of nowhere, it is extremely important to light your campsite. The walk to go to the bathroom, having light when you're cooking, lighting up the path if your hike lasted longer than planned are just a few times you will be thankful for light! I NEVER leave without my headlamp. Hands free illumination in the outdoors is epic.
Luckily there are many types of lighting gear for camping. Intervine's quality collection of lights meet all of your camping needs.
1. Led lanterns both small and large, portable lanterns to rechargeable lanterns with power bank functions.
2. Flashlights with both battery and usb charging options
3. Headlamps that are adjustable, comfortable, and battery powered.
Make sure to get the lighting gear that fits your needs. For example, a headlight leaves your hands free so you can start the fire, cook, set up the tent, or anything you need to do with ease. You can comfortably leave it on your head and switch it on and off when necessary. While if what you are looking for is to light up the outside of your tent to have dinner then a Led camping lantern would be better. Flashlights are great to have at hand when walking in the dark or searching for something. Always make sure that all your camping gear is high quality, you fully charge everything before you leave and bring back up batteries for longer trips.
5. Cooking.
Cooking while camping doesn't mean it can't be as just as delicious as if you were in your own kitchen. It requires good planning ahead about which types of foods you would like to bring and how much food you will need for the duration of your trip. If you're having trouble meal planning yourself there are A TON of grocery lists and recipes specially made for camping. Here is a great PDF printable checklist to use! Preparing soups/stew ahead of time, measuring out ingredients beforehand, rubbing your grill with oil to avoid food from sticking, and always storing your food in a high place to avoid unwanted visitors are a few of my absolute musts!
Make sure you pack a box of matches and a few lighters, bring your camping stove, or for even more fun, cook right over the campfire (if you are allowed to burn a campfire, s'mores anyone?).
We are all beginner's at some point. You learn more and more every time you go and you'll always be adding little tips and tricks to your list. Being surrounded by nature can lower your stress levels, improve your mood and most importantly create amazing memories! Now go out and breathe in that fresh air!

Drawn from the collection of the Centre Pompidou, the exhibition examines how Chagall's Russian heritage influenced and informed his artistic practice, illustrating how he at turns embraced and rejected broader movements in art history as he developed his widely beloved style. Chagall and the Russian Avant-Garde comprises 118 works from a broad array of media, including painting, sculpture, works on paper, photography, and film. The artwork is drawn entirely from the collection of the Centre Pompidou and features 32 works by Chagall and eight works by Kandinsky.
"Centre Pompidou is one of the world's preeminent art museums and we at the AGO are deeply grateful—and very excited—to be able to share these highlights from its collection with our visitors," says Matthew Teitelbaum, the AGO's Michael and Sonja Koerner Director, and CEO. "The visual relationship—both complementary and contrasting—of Chagall's emotive figurations with the abstractions of the Russian avant-garde tells a compelling and complex story of influence and heritage, contextualizing Chagall within the art movements of his homeland for the very first time and offering visitors an opportunity to discuss, debate, and connect with some outstanding works of art."
"Built around the great figure of Marc Chagall and the exceptional collection of our museum, this exhibition is an opportunity to consider the exceptional work of the Russian avant-garde from Chagall's perspective," says Alfred Pacquemont, director of the Musée national d'art moderne in Centre Pompidou. "Our collection of works by Chagall includes key works from Chagall's personal collection, many of which were gifts of the artist and his family; works by Kandinsky, Gontcharova, and Delaunay are also among our collection's highlights. We are privileged that the Art Gallery of Ontario will host this exhibition for its only North American showing, and that these great works—many of which rarely leave our museum—will be experienced and enjoyed by a Canadian audience."
"From cubo-futurism and constructivism to folk art and expressionism, Chagall's influences are as wide-ranging and divergent as his work is boldly original and singularly imaginative," says Elizabeth Smith, the AGO's executive director of curatorial affairs. "This exhibition encourages new perspectives on Chagall's artistic development, and offers a comprehensive presentation of outstanding artwork by the 20th century's most imaginative and engaging Russian artists."

Frederick Davidson's young women sound exactly the same--breathy, vapid and brainless but he's lucky here because there's only one female, and she doesn't appear much. He runs rampant with his excellent male characterizations, lacing them with his dry, faintly cynical rendition of the narrative itself in low, measured, polite British cadences. He also handles the Slavic characters well, using just the right accent to make them believable. Given that Le Carré's somber spy story is full of his usual angst, Davidson fits right in.

Christina Moore once again brings positive energy to Lutz’s “documents” about Isabel Spellman, a 30-something slacker PI. The family detecting business gets pushed to the limits when they find their clients are at cross-purposes. As usual, there are a number of family issues involving romance, visiting relatives, and strange behavior. Moore’s comedic tone and timing match Lutz’s hilarious style and plotlines. While navigating among a slew of characters, Moore creates a distinct and consistent voice for each. There are a few missteps in pronunciation of local place-names, and Moore lacks the distinct Northern California cadence of the novel, but otherwise a thoroughly entertaining reading.

NetHunt’s “Workflows'' feature uses rule-based logic to automate nuisance manual work; a modern-day savior from laborious data entry and lead nurturing.
Workflows run self-operating processes, saving your business time and money, relinquishing embarrassing errors, and boosting employee productivity. Assign tasks to users based on rules you set; set notifications every time a workflow has been triggered. Do it now or simply schedule it for later.
Whatever you need to do, Workflows takes the hard work out of working hard.
This new feature is available from the left-side navigation panel:
Important: you can access this feature from both your Gmail, and the web application.
Some of the most common processes that you can automate with Workflows are:
Capture webform leads and pop them in your NetHunt CRM.
Say a potential customer visits your site and fills out a webform. NetHunt CRM immediately scrapes all that glorious data and pops a shiny, new record in your CRM dashboard. That’s their first name, last name, email address, company name, phone number, landing page, referring page, newsletter subscription, and more straight in your inbox and ready to rumble.
Set drip campaigns to nurture leads.
Use NetHunt CRM to create automatic email sequences and engage prospects, leads, and customers. Fire out thousands of personalized emails at the perfect, chosen time... without lifting a finger.
Automatically link email conversations to client profiles.
NetHunt CRM logs email interactions with customers and leads, each time you engage with them, all by itself. Keep your contact records up-to-date in real-time; have relevant, valuable information about where a lead is up to all the way through the sales process.
Assign incoming leads to relevant team members, send an email notification after the deal is set to Won or Lost.
For example, NetHunt CRM automatically changes lead's Stage from ‘New’ to ‘Negotiating’ when a lead responds to your drip campaign. When this happens, a rep is assigned the relevant task which should be carried out, based on the stage that the lead is moving into.
Set alerts and stay in the loop for when something happens.
Our users can configure notifications to be sent immediately or at a scheduled time once a desired criteria has been met. NetHunt CRM notifies teams or managers whenever something attention-worthy happens with a lead, customer, or deal.
Control your sales workflow.
There are certain tasks that a sales team needs to carry out through each individual step of the pipeline. In NetHunt CRM, you can configure the automatic creation and rep-assignment of these tasks whenever a deal moves from one stage to the next.
Imagine a new deal has been added to your sales pipeline. NetHunt automatically creates a pre-defined set of tasks for this deal: qualify this lead, schedule a call with them, or complete any other user-set task that suits your sales process.
Use an algorithm to assign incoming leads to relevant team members.
NetHunt CRM automatically assigns leads to selected sales reps on a Round-robin schedule. That means they are allocated, without priority or prejudice, in a circular order. Upon assignment, reps are given tasks that must be carried out based on where the lead stands in the sales process.
With Workflows, NetHunt CRM took a leap from CRM system to dedicated sales-growth hub. It automates webform capture, drip campaigns, and contact-email linking. Algorithms and notifications make life easier… because sometimes working hard is too much hard work.
Workflows features is available to our users with the StartUp, Business, and Advanced subscription plans (former Professional Plus and Enterprise subscription plans included as well). Basic (and Professional) plan users will be able to test the feature for 14 days and then upgrade if necessary.
For more pricing details please refer to our Pricing page.
Important. Please note that only Workspace Admins and a group of users with specific permissions assigned can create or edit workflows in your NetHunt CRM workspace.

MillionaireMatch: Sweetening Up Life With Lisa Sugar | Company Media Room of MillionaireMatch
LOS ANGELES, April 23, 2018 (Newswire.com) - The sweetest thing anyone could do for themselves is to create the life that they want. Lisa Sugar, co-creator of PopSugar, did just that. Working as an advertising executive, Sugar was craving to create content as a writer. That passion leads her to launch one of the most popular women's sites on health, lifestyle, beauty and celebrity news.
"I finally felt wise enough to share some advice," she said regarding her book Power Your Happy. The mom of three who also runs the company with her husband has a lot she can share with entrepreneurs looking to take the leap. While trying to land her foot into entertainment, she realized that it wasn't an easy thing. Advertising would fill the void temporarily, but she knew she didn't want to do it in her 30s. Sugar then moved to San Francisco, but soon found that she didn't want to write about technology. Any chance she could get, whether before or after work and even on her lunch break, she started writing posts for PopSugar.
After a year of writing, the site had a million unique impressions. Sugar knew that this was not just a site, but a business. Women could read "anything from a political stance to buying new shoes." The power couple grew the brand while growing the team. What women loved about the site was "we have been fan-friendly since day one." No celebrity gossip on this site, which also helped Sugar land interviews with stars like Beyonce.
The Sugar couple is seen as a rarity. A couple that works together, is successful and has a happy life just isn't celebrated as much. "I never intended to work with my husband. I never thought we would work together, but we do," she said. Even though people see them as a power couple, she simply thinks they are "people who lift each other up." She advised, "It's important to surround yourself with people that you are going to learn from."
The staff at PopSugar is 75 percent women. Though celebrity news is always a hot topic, the most popular vertical on the site now is health. They've evolved with the times to include lots of video content. "You have to be faster, stronger and better every day," she said regarding competition. "We talk to our audience and editors about being more clever about stories and angles," Sugar added. She has been lucky to find the right team to keep them ahead of the other media sites out there. "It's a combination of finding great people who are passionate about finding things first, then building those relationships with brands and talent," said Sugar.
One bit of sweet advice Sugar offered for those who may be on the path like herself - trying to do their passion as a job. "You can find yourself in a job where you are not inspired," she said. "If you don't want your boss' job, you may be in the wrong place." This may lead to finally taking the leap on your own dreams.

Linen Sofa Bed | Making It Here
Home » Bed Linen » Linen Sofa Bed
Linen Sofa Bed – The first thing to do is to look for the previous bed linen styles, if you're looking to make your bedroom a modern, pleasant and cosy place to be. If you would like to be with your bed linen in fashion think about luxury and warmth. Whether you're organizing your bedroom to the warm or cool months, you must follow along with bed mixing of styles, layering of things and linen styles including colours.
Luckily you'll have a range to pick from as bed linen collections have been revitalised with unique offers of styles that are desired. Bed linen today comes to modern made from vibrant textures, fabrics and decorative cuts together with focus on the details at a mixture of styles from bohemian, providing the basis of quality.
For the tastes there are striking designs available with fashionable patterns that come in colour palette that is yummy and prints.
White will be in fashion instead of only as a trendy summer shade but while the secret for a effect. For the winter white bed linen is being warmed up using blues, earth brownspinks and plenty of layering. You can't go wrong if you use white as the base color for the bedroom and accessorise with all the other colours and textures to produce.
Without being accused of having lack of good flavor you are able to use glamour from the bedroom. Bed linen with metallic colours such as gold and aluminum features works with colours for pillows and the mattress cover.
Nature's sway from the bedroom is not something new. In furniture and olive-green, earthy toned cushions leading to make the look of the nature, you are able to pick leaf prints.
Probably the style is the fashion. You may begin with a foundation and then introduce interest with attachments such as a cashmere throw plus a few cushions. The concept is to maintain clutter stays and lines, but now you can add a little warmth into your bed linen. The bedroom accessories are very important to its effect that is cosy. Faux fur embroidery, sequins, leather and velvet are all prominent. Add one of these elements to finish off the look of your mattress.

Flights to most of Asia and Australia from Bali can be found for as little as 1,000,000 IDR ($ 75 USD). Scooter fares around the island are as low as 135,000 IDR ($ 10 USD). Bicycles are also available for rent, typically costing around 60,000 IDR ($ 4.50 USD) per day for a basic bike.
Taxis – Taxis are essential for getting around Bali, and they are cheap. The starting rate is around 7,000 IDR ($ 0.50 USD) and then 4,100 IDR ($ 0.30 USD) per kilometer. For example, Kuta to Seminyak price would be around 85,000-110,000 IDR ($6-8 USD).
Bluebird Taxis are available in most places, and they are the most trusted company for metered taxis and English speaking drivers. is a smartphone app that makes ordering a taxi easy and convenient.
Grab (an Uber progeny) is a household name in Southeast Asia. It is also convenient, but sometimes it costs more than a taxi. Go-Jek in Indonesia is a similar option, although it focuses on motorbike ride shares.
Motorbikes - Motorbikes are excellent for the Bali experience, and it is not uncommon to see entire families riding together! Motorbikes are very common here because they make it easy to weave in and out of congested traffic.
You can order a motorbike to roam like you would order an Uber - all you need is the Go-Jek or Grab app. Like Uber, you use the app to request a driver and they will come to pick you up at your destination. If you are concerned about hygiene then they will also bring an extra helmet (for motorcycle riding) and a hair mask for you. Trips are cheap. Short trips from Seminyak to Canggu can cost around 14,000 IDR ($ 1 USD), while longer trips should not cost more than 28,000 IDR ($ 2 USD).
If you want to rent a motorbike yourself, a rental will cost around 60,000 IDR ($4.30 USD) per day. However you need to be an experienced driver for this option.
Bemos and Buses - Bemos are usually a minibus or van carrying about 12 people in very tight quarters, but they are not widely used by visitors. They are usually really time consuming, but they are cheap and most rides are around 5,000 IDR ($0.35 USD).
Tourist buses are a great way to get around, and they're cheap. They usually have air conditioning, and some have WiFi. You'll see signs in most areas offering these services. Kura-Kura Bus and Perama are the two largest tourist bus operators. Kuta to Lovina will cost you 125,000 IDR ($9 USD), while Denpasar to Kuta costs only 20,000 IDR ($1.50 USD). Kuta to Ubud is 60,000 IDR ($4.50 USD).
Ferry - It is easy to get to and from Bali via ferry. Ghats cost about 7,000 IDR / $ 0.50 USD (and above) for tickets from East Java to West Bali, and the rates for other routes go up from there. From Bali (Padang Bai) to Lombok is about 65,000 IDR ($5 USD) (one way), while a speedboat from Bali to the Gili Islands costs 419,000 IDR ($30 USD) (one way).
Although booking in advance is not necessary, it is a good idea during peak seasons or another popular routes. You can purchase tickets on the ferry company's website or through a ticket agent such as 12go.asia.
Bali has a warm, tropical climate throughout the year, with only two seasons: wet and dry. The dry season lasts from April to September, while the rainy season lasts from October to the end of March. The average daily temperature throughout the year is 80 ° F (28 ° C). The high season is from July and August as well as the Easter holidays and the Christmas holidays (approximately 11 December to 1 January). Bali is busiest during this time, and prices are highest.
In the mountainous regions of Bali, the temperature is cooler and there is more rainfall than in the coast. If you are planning to spend time in the mountains then you will want to pack suitable clothes.
Overall, the best time of year to visit is between May and September when it is dry and sunny. It is still pleasant to come here during the rainy season - the rains usually come in the form of strong and intense rains that last only a few hours. In Bali, the extremes between the seasons are not harsh. The dry season is the best time to climb volcanoes and participate in water sports activities, and the best time to dive is from April to September.
Bali is an incredibly safe place to backpack and travel – even if you're traveling alone (and even as a solo female traveller). Violent attacks are rare. Petty theft (including bag snatching) is the most common type of crime in Indonesia. Theft on public transport is also very common in Indonesia. When you are distracted by all the clutter around you, it becomes easy for thieves to grab your wallet or purse. stay alert.
Credit card fraud is also common in Indonesia. It is always best to pay with cash whenever possible. To avoid having your information stolen at the ATM, enter a reputed bank to withdraw money from there. Make sure you do not keep all your cash with you. Take what you need for the day and keep the rest safe in your accommodation.
Always trust your gut instinct. If a taxi driver seems shady, stop the cab and exit. If your hotel is seedier than you think, get out of there. Make copies of your personal documents, including your passport and ID, before leaving home. Forward your itinerary with loved ones so they know where you are.
As a general rule, if you don't do it at home, don't do it when you're in Indonesia. Follow that rule and you'll be fine.

Houston Forward Times | Will the 2018 NBA All Star Game Be the Game of the Year or Another Snooze-Fest? - Houston Forward Times
Will the 2018 NBA All Star Game Be the Game of the Year or Another Snooze-Fest?
In years past, fans would gather to watch twelve of the brightest and best from the NBA Eastern and Western Conferences face off against each other in an exhibition game. This usually resulted in a game of dunks, zero defense and guys having fun but avoiding injury. So what could potentially be the greatest game of the season, regular and post, has always been kind of a joke.
In an attempt to make the game more interesting, the NBA switched up the format this year. The first step was getting rid of the East vs. West and creating one big pool for two voted-in captains to draft from. The 2018 captains are LeBron James and Stephen Curry. Their respective teams are as follows.
Team LeBron Starters: Kyrie Irving, LeBron James, Kevin Durant, Anthony Davis, DeMarcus Cousins (Injury replacement: Paul George)
Team LeBron Reserves: Bradley Beal, LaMarcus Aldridge, Kevin Love, Russell Westbrook, Victor Oladipo, Kristaps Porzingis, John Wall
Team Steph Starters: James Harden, DeMar DeRozan, Stephen Curry, Giannis Antetokounmpo, Joel Embiid
Team Steph Reserves: Draymond Green, Klay Thompson, Jimmy Butler, Damian Lillard, Kyle Lowry, Karl-Anthony Towns, Al Horford
Shortly after the teams were selected, DeMarcus "Boogie" Cousins suffered a season ending injury and has since been replaced by Paul George.

Now that the geographical barriers have been removed, it will be fun to watch matchups we might not see outside of the Olympic teams. It's no secret that Lebron drafted arguably the second best player in the league, Kevin Durant, first. Stealing Durant away from his regular season teammates and reuniting him with former teammate Russell Westbrook will definitely make for a more interesting game. LeBron also drafted his former teammate Kyrie Irving who made it plain at the end of last season that he was done playing in LeBron's shadow. Irving was traded to the Celtics and now sits atop the Eastern Conference.
To sweeten the pot a little more in an attempt to stir up that competitive spirit amongst the players, the winners' compensation has been doubled. "Each player on the winning team will receive $100,000, and the losing team players will pocket $25,000, league sources said. The only modification is the winner's compensation, with a $50,000 boost from previous years."
So while it appears as though this could be the playground pick-up game of the century, every player's priority is leaving All Star Weekend healthy. Does a $75,000 boost inspire defense? Fans will just have to wait and see. The All Star Game will air February 18, 2018 at 8pm ET on TNT.
Washington Wizards/Team Lebron Reserve John Wall is requiring knee surgery and will be replace by Detroit Piston Andre Drummond.
Cleveland Cavalier/Team Lebron Reserve Kevin Love suffered a fractured hand and his All Star replacement is pending.

Owens' star quality adds to Dallas rivalry - San Francisco - Scout
Owens' star quality adds to Dallas rivalryCraig Massei12/07/2002Is Terrell Owens still public enemy No. 1 in Dallas? "That's an interesting question," Cowboys coach Dave Campo said. "Because we certainly have used that a little bit from the standpoint of focus and the fact that this is our home field and we defend our home field." It's also a question of interest this week with the 49ers going to Dallas to play the Cowboys for the third consecutive season at Texas Stadium. Everybody still remembers well what Owens did the first time San Francisco was there.That was dance all over the Cowboys' midfield star logo after scoring touchdowns early in the game and late in the game. Actually, Owens ran to midfield to stand on the star and look upward through the hole in the roof at Texas Stadium, creating much disdain and the wrath of Dallas the first time, then nearly inciting an all-out brawl the second time.
Owens wasn't talking about that two-year-old incident this week - he rarely talks to the local media anymore - but it certainly still is fresh in the minds of the Cowboys.
"I think our guys, from the standpoint of standing on our star, I think that that in a small way means something," Campo said. "We certainly don't want to use negativism as a motivator, but at the same time, it's a competitive situation and people motivate themselves in a number of different ways.
"But I'm one who believes that when you line up on Sunday, anything can happen, especially in the league today. You still have to show up ready to play football and all that emotional stuff lasts for about 10 hits. Then, it comes down to who is prepared and who is ready to play on that particular day."
The Cowboys were ready last year when Owens and the Niners returned to Texas Stadium on Dec. 30 with an 11-3 record and needing a victory over the 4-10 Cowboys to secure a wild-card playoff game at home.
The Cowboys kept Owens out of the end zone - and off the midfield star - and emerged with a 27-21 victory that forced San Francisco to go on the road two weeks later, where the Niners lost in the first round at Green Bay.
Combine the Owens incident that won't die with a Cowboys-49ers rivalry that already is legendary, and there shouldn't be any lack of intensity on the Texas Stadium turf when these teams get together Sunday.
"I think everybody's aware of the past and will just continue to build on that enthusiasm, that excitement that surrounds this game," Niners quarterback Jeff Garcia said.
Said Niners coach Steve Mariucci: "It's going to be a slugfest. It's going to be a doozy. They're improving like crazy. It's a big game for them, it's a big game for us. Because we're right in the thick of it all. We expect to have one of those real good 49er-Cowboy football games."

Rennteam 2.0 - EN - Forum - 2010 Brazilian F1 Grand Prix - Page1 - Page1
Oct 25, 2010 10:43:01 AM
2010 Brazilian F1 Grand Prix
After the rain caused mayhem in South Korea, the next race is in less than 2 weeks time in Sao Paulo at Interlagos.
While the 5 main protagonists are all mathematically still in contention, realistically, Button is already out with only 189 points.
Only 25 points separates the top 4. IMvHO it's a battle between Alonso and the 2 Red Bull guys. Hamilton is right there with 210 points but his car is not fast enough. He depends on the misfortune of others to get on the podium.
Red Bull's reliability has been poor. The car is very fast but only some pole positions have been converted into race wins. It's not consistent enough. Webber is calm and relaxed but he is making mistakes under pressure. Vettel also makes mistakes. Plus the team is splitting its resources and effort behind both men.
Alonso is a model of consistency right now. He is not putting a foot wrong. Ferrari is totally focussed on supporting his title bid. Even Massa has been forced into serving this cause. Alonso has the mental toughness to cope with the pressure. IMvHO, this title is only going to one place.
While reliability cannot be taken for granted, the reality is that Ferrari has made one of the most reliable cars on the grid. Vettel needs Alonso not to finish 1 or 2 races or he needs to outscore Alonso by 13 points per race. That's a tough ask.
Webber only has a 11 point deficit. That can be easily turned around. Whereas Hamilton is 21 points behind in a slower car. That will be tough. Hamilton will be relying on luck more than anything else.
It's gonna be fascinating to watch how this season ends. Once again, it will go right down to the wire.
Oct 25, 2010 12:04:04 PM
Re: 2010 Brazilian F1 Grand Prix
if Alonso wins at Brazil and Webber scores 5th or less, Alonso will be champion. Not very likely IMO but its posible it could end at Brazil.
Oct 25, 2010 7:39:37 PM
I was looking at the 'driver's points scores' in Easy's link and it's interesting to note the differentials between team-mates...
Of those still in contention.. Alonso is well ahead - 88 points to Hamilton's 21 and Webber's 14.
But the "stand out" performance is undoubtedly that of Kubica at 105 points...
He must surely be in contention for a move to a stronger team, maybe Ferrari, next year....
Oct 25, 2010 8:58:13 PM
Kubica has certainly had a very strong season and i hope he will get a top 3 car to compete seriously next season. He's one of the best this season! Silent but consistent is key.
Oct 25, 2010 9:07:01 PM
Just fyi, Kubica has already announced that he is staying with Renault F1 in 2011
Oct 25, 2010 9:30:24 PM
There's a point where belief starts to weigh heavily on results. Right now, Ferrari believes they're going to win this thing, or at least their driver will.
And right now, I sense that Red Bull believes everything always goes wrong for them.
Webber could easily win this if he has the car. But Alonso has the car. And the momentum.
That's powerful stuff, but I'm still pulling for Webber to win. He's done some amazing driving this year -- Korea aside -- and I'd love to see him extend his great drives two more races.

Alonso has all he needs, the car, the support by Ferrari and the momentum.
Hard to see how he could lose the championship now.
Oct 26, 2010 7:46:00 AM
It's Alonso's title unless he loses it.

http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/87776
IMO this is mistake, because even if Vettel wins both races and Alonso is second, is Alonso still champion.. My bet is Alonso will win WDC this year..
Oct 28, 2010 1:34:20 PM
They have already said that they will build next year's team around Vettel, that´s as close a team orders as you can get, i.e. now any other driver that signs in that team that is not Vettel knows what to expect, he will play second fiddle. Though this year they will likely play it out as it goes, who ever stands the best chance will be favoured, and that will probably be decided in the next race.
Oct 28, 2010 3:26:11 PM
Webber is 34 years old with a mediocre F1 career since 2001 till 2009 when he won his first race in Germany and then a second race in Brazil.
His 2010 season has been much better but mostly because of the car and his determination to make the most of what could be one of the few chances he ever gets to win the title.
http://www.formula1.com/teams_and_drivers/drivers/21/
By contrast, Sebastian Vettel is only 23 years old with mostly successful seasons since he entered F1. He won his first race in his first full season in F1 in 2008 in a Toro Rosso car. 4 race wins in 2009. Multiple pole positions and race wins in 2010.
http://www.formula1.com/teams_and_drivers/drivers/822/
Given their respective track records and given their ages (and the fact that you can invest in Vettel for years to come), is it any surprise that RBR want to build a team around Vettel? Webber is lucky to have this chance to compete this season ...
Oct 28, 2010 3:38:13 PM
Unfortunately for Vettel if he doesn't win the title this year, which is unlikely IMO, most probably he won't have another go next year.
I consider RBR as a team that won't be consistently challenging for the title. Next year I see McLaren coming back and Mercedes giving a strong challenge to Ferrari and all 3 main teams eclipsing Red Bull.
Moreover, Mateschitz may decide to fold his F1 operation down and sell his teams at some point in the not distant future.
I hope Vettel matures more at RBR and moves to Mercedes in 2012 to replace Schumacher and give them the championship.
Oct 28, 2010 4:33:02 PM
I agree that it is very unlikely for Vettel to win this year but I don't agree with your 2011 prediction about RBR. RBR had the fastest car in the second half of 2009 and they were catching Brawn GP race by race. Button just about managed to hang onto the lead at the end of 2009.
In 2010, the RBR car has been by far the best car throughout the whole season. No matter what Ferrari and McLaren has tried to do, RBR has managed to stay ahead.
It's important to remember that RBR uses a Renault customer engine. It is not the most powerful engine in F1 due to the engine development freeze. Cars with a Mercedes engine have a small advantage. So everything RBR has achieved on the car has been because of the amazing chassis designed by Adrian Newey. The guy is a genius.
Next year I think it will again be a close fight between RBR and Ferrari.
McLaren has been claiming to have found some tenths at every race all through the 2010 season. And mostly, these claims have been proven false. More wishful thinking from them. I think they will remain the No 3 team in F1 in 2011.
Mercedes lost the initiative (back when it was Brawn GP) in the second half of 2009 and they have never managed to find it again. I see no reason for this to change. Simply having a big budget didn't help BAR nor did it help Toyota. I also don't think it will lead to a turnaround in Mercedes GP's fortunes either. Signing Schumi was a huge error IMvHO.
As for Mateschitz, he has wanted to sell Toro Rosso for a long time. But he never did it. The fact that he can still keep 2 racing teams shows he has piles of money to burn. Somehow there are enough people buying Red Bull drinks (can't understand why - I think they're disgusting). And with other teams leaving F1 (BMW, Toyota, Honda etc) in 2009, the FIA and Bernie Ecclestone will not put too much pressure on him to hurry up and sell off Toro Rosso. As for RBR, there is no way Mateschitz will sell it. He uses F1 and the Red Bull Air Races to promote Red Bull drinks among the 20/30-something crowd that buy his drinks.
IMHO the team to watch out for is Renault. I have a sneaky feeling they will improve next year. They are one of the few teams to develop (and perfect) a McLaren-style F-duct system from scratch in 2010. Not many teams were actually successful in doing that. Many tried but most only managed to cobble together something that only did a so-so job. Renault is operating on a small budget but punching well above its weight. And with Kubica there in 2011, I expect we may even see some race wins.
I also think Force India has lost its way. It is in danger of slipping backwards... Dr Vijay Maliya must be disappointed. He built a mega-successful beer and airline empire in India. But his F1 adventure has been a costly failure. It still amazes me that he has not fired Liuzzi. How many chances will Liuzzi get?
Oct 28, 2010 5:25:14 PM
I think there is no clear favourite..Surely team orders from RBR to SV and MW will be to make it even harder for FA, which ever one benefits..
Going to be a great last 2 races..
Oct 28, 2010 5:29:08 PM
This year's Mercedes was developed last season by Brawn GP on a meagre budget, as admitted by Ross Brawn recently. This is the reason why it has fallen behind. Mercedes engineers have been putting all their know how behind the 2011 car for some time now and I'm sure they will come up with a strong challenger.
I agree with you 100% on your estimation of Newey and also about your drinks taste. Red Bull tastes awful especially the Sugarfree version.
Oct 28, 2010 6:40:27 PM
+1 exactly im hoping for the same indeed!!
Oct 28, 2010 6:46:01 PM
I think Mercedes and Renault will move up to be more competitive, expect wins from them!
McLaren and Ferrari will certainly be good, but RBR is going to lose ground im afraid...
The post season winter development program will be critical and Mercedes have got a HUGE head start. The others are still trying to win the 2010 title. I'd love to see the silver arrows back in competition next season!
Oct 30, 2010 7:12:52 PM
It is quite surprising how little attention Newey receives for his tremendous chassis development if one considers, as you said, that the car is equipped with a customer engine from Renault. Unfortunately its speed doesn´t reflect in reliability but to be honest, considering the short timespan this team is in F1, it will be solved in the upcoming seasons.
I personally don´t see Mateschitz closing down his F1 venture as he is one of the very few who has been a successful championship contender within very few years. Same goes for Maliya as I do in no way see his efforts to be unsuccessful. He transformed a constant backmarker into a team with progress and chance of scoring points under the right circumstances. Certainly not as successful as Red Bull but much more convincing than previous entries, both run privately and by manufacturers.
Obviously one needs a competent driver at the wheel, where has been Red Bull before Vettel? Even to my astonishment, it was Fisichella that showed impressive performance in the Force India and I assume that his experience made him deal with the car that Sutil and Liuzzi usually are unable to do to full extend.

Webber says that Red Bull is not emotionally behind him and that it is maybe inconvenient for Red Bull that he is in the hunt for the championship

Horner must be the biggest liar in the paddok, and thats not an easy task. BTW, he still owes Webber a front wing...

This is a RedBull track, Alonso won't win easily here. A double win for RedBull will guarantee a breathtaking Abu Dhabi race.
Nov 5, 2010 1:56:54 PM
I doubt Alonso will be able to beat the RedBulls Sunday, and he has Hamilton to contend with as well, so I also think it will liekly be a close call between at least three drivers in Abu Dhabi.

Unbelievable Q3 - such a thrilling last 4 minutes to the session Amazing laps by Hulkenberg
Looking forward to a great race tomorrow
Nov 6, 2010 5:23:30 PM
Brazil is always a lottery due to the changing conditions, and the Q3 showed it once again, and all the drivers seem more worried about not having a DNF in this tricky tarck at this stage than anything else.
Its going to be an interesting first corners, I expect Hamilton to be very aggressive there in a last bonzai attempt at the championship. I think he will bring the most exitement to tomorrow's race.

Estrogen antagonist - definition of estrogen antagonist by The Free Dictionary
https://www.thefreedictionary.com/estrogen+antagonist
Dictionary, Encyclopedia and Thesaurus - The Free Dictionary 12,449,683,931 visitors served
Noun 1. estrogen antagonist - an antagonist for estrogen that is used in the treatment of breast cancer
<a href="https://www.thefreedictionary.com/estrogen+antagonist">estrogen antagonist</a>
In breast tissue, tamoxifen acts as an estrogen antagonist. In other tissue, including vaginal tissue, tamoxifen has been reported to exert an estrogen-like response on vaginal cytology by a mechanism yet to be understood and not expected based upon its an anti-estrogen activity.
(29) Because it is an estrogen antagonist in both breast and uterine tissues, raloxifene does not increase the risk of uterine or breast cancer.
Of the two receptors, the binding affinity of GEN for ER-[beta] is about 20 times higher than that for ER-[alpha], indicating that GEN has been related with its action as chemopreventive activity resulting from an estrogen antagonist. Several studies have reported that GEN significantly inhibited the growth, metastasis and angiogenesis of various types of cancer (Kim et al.
Antiestrogens 2 Structure- activity studies in a series of 3- aroyl- 2- arylbenzo [b]thiophene derivatives leading to [6hydroxy- 2- (4-hydroxyphenyl)benzo[b] thien- 3- yl][4- [2- (1- piperidinyl)ethoxy] phenyl]methanone hydrochloride(LY156758), a remarkable effective estrogen antagonist with only minimal intrinsic estrogenicity.
Tamoxifen, for example, is an estrogen antagonist for the breast, exhibiting a cytostatic effect on ER-positive breast cancer cells, slowing proliferation.
The AF-2 mutation in the E/F domain disrupts AF-2 but can be activated via the AF-1 function by the estrogen antagonist ICI 182,780 (ICI) (Arao et al.
It is thought to have a weak estrogenlike effect, as well as estrogen antagonist effect.
This estrogen-elicited event is not abrogated by the estrogen antagonist, ICI 182, 780, confirming its independence from the presence of estrogen receptor a (Lareef et al., 2005; Mello et al., 2007a).
Tamoxifen, a nonsteroidal estrogen antagonist, is the endocrine treatment of choice to prevent breast cancer recurrence in women with positive estrogen receptors.
Hysterosonography Proves Useful Adjunct
A complete estrogen antagonist in the uterus, raloxifene was initially put on the shelf after a phase II trial showed that it caused no response in women with metastatic breast cancer refractory to tamoxifen, he said.
(1) Others, citing more recent research, have identified tamoxifen as an estrogen antagonist, that is, a chemical which directly interferes with estrogen itself.

About This Blog – Skin by Tasha's Face
I started out with Tasha's Face – a site dedicated to make-up. I wanted it to inspire and it is based on looks I have tried out, and also has a few comments here and there!
Skincare goes hand-in-hand with make-up but I personally don't find it visually inspiring. I didn't want to put boring pictures of jars of cream on a site that's meant to be fun.
My objective here is to share my thoughts and comments on skincare I have used. I have used premium skincare and loved it but then I thought to myself, do I really have to spend so much money? Someone with unfathomably soft skin told me it is important to moisturise everyday. They did not say I had to spend a fortune doing it. My hair on the other hand, now that's another story!

What are the required documents for personal identity verification? | XREX Help Center
What are the required documents for personal identity verification?
To be able to get verified with an XREX account, there are certain requirements that you'll have to fulfill for the identity verification. In terms of personal documentation, this includes two separate submissions of two different documents; (1) proof of identity (2) proof of address.
The following documents are considered the most used and validated types of proof of identity:
Identity card (National ID)
Remember that the same document can't be used to confirm both your identity and the proof of address. Even if the proof of identity (ID) document has an address on it, another supportive document will be required through the verification process.
Residence permit (applies to some countries)
Common proof of address examples
Note: it is important to make sure your name in this document is stated in the same format as your proof of identity document; differences in name will not be accepted and further resubmission will transpire.
The following documents can be accepted as valid proof of address only if stated with a complete address and full name.
Remember that you cannot use the same document to confirm both the proof of identity and the proof of address.
Bank statement with the date of issue and your name. (the document must be not older than 3 months)
Utility bill for gas, electricity, water, internet, etc. linked to the property (the document must not be older than 3 months)
*** Don't have these documents or a camera to use? Reach out to our support team for assistance, and they will help find an alternative solution for you.

Total sales for the first eight months of fiscal 2005 decreased 1.2 percent to $776.6 million from $785.9 million during the same period last year. Comparable store sales for the first eight months of fiscal 2005 declined 6.3 percent from the same period last year.
"Sales for the month of September 2005 were negatively affected by hurricanes Katrina, Ophelia and Rita, as well as by unseasonably warm weather, which prevailed in markets," commented Robert M. Goodfriend, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. "These factors forced us to be more promotional than planned during the month in an effort to stimulate sales and reduce seasonal inventories. As a result, we expect to report a net loss for the third quarter of 2005, which is significantly greater than the net loss of $0.02 per diluted share reported for the third quarter of 2004.
"Currently, there are six Goody's stores that remain closed as a result of the hurricanes," Goodfriend added. "One of these stores, located in Lake Charles, Louisiana, sustained limited damage and is currently closed due to a prolonged power outage. The Company expects this store to reopen in October 2005. Stores in Hammond and Houma, Louisiana; and Hattiesburg and Gulfport, Mississippi; are currently expected to reopen in November 2005. A store in West Orange, Texas, is expected to reopen in March 2006."

This very old and long forgotten thread was cruelly dragged back out of the peaceful grave yesterday by an anonymous blow-in who wanted to make a snide remark. That post has been deleted, so it now looks as if it was Terry's fault, which it wasn't; though it's always a good idea to look at the dates on messages. A lot of old discussions get revived by people who wander in via external search engines and who don't understand how this place works; usually there are several other threads on the same subject that contain better information.
Well, it's a treat to get some of the background on some of those great old songs from someone 'who was there' ... Thanks!

For those who want to venture further, to pioneer the truly off the beaten track, here are some suggestions where you could go in 2018. Bhutan This Himalayan kingdom, sandwiched between India and China, is one of the planet's last outposts, almost entirely untouched by Western trappings. The welcoming and friendly Bhutanese dress traditionally and the majority tend patchwork fields toiling with oxen, ploughs and scythes. With its towering mountains and crystal-clear rivers, Bhutan is one of the most magical places on Earth. Travel is restricted by number of tourists each year and therefore relatively expensive. But how long Bhutan will […]

The 46th annual IHSA Team Chess State Tournament returns to Peoria Civic Center on Friday and Saturday, February 14-15. A total of 127 teams from across the state are entered in this year's competition. The field was narrowed down from original 149 entries who played at sectional tournaments around the state on February 1. This is the third year of sectional competition, which was implemented because the tournament was bursting at the seams in the Civic Center Ballroom.
"The largest team chess tournament in the world happens right here in Peoria," said former IHSA Assistant Executive Director Scott Johnson, who now serves as the State Final Statiscian. "People think of chess as an individual pursuit. Turning it into a team competition encourages players to help their teammates improve and fosters a sense of camaraderie. They cheer for each other after a good win – or even a good draw."
The 2019 state tournament saw Whitney Young High School win its fifth team state championship, all of which have come since 2011. The Dolphins, who ended Illinois Math and Science Academy's threepeat bid in 2019, have also placed second four times since 2007. Barrington was the runner-up a year ago, as the school brought home its first state trophy after five previous Top 10 finishes. Stevenson has placed third the past two seasons and now owns eight state final trophies, inlcuding one state title (2008). Highland Park just missed its first trophy a year ago when it placed fourth, a position the Giants have landed in three times in the past four years. Two-time champ New Trier (5th) rounded out the Top 5 in 2019, while Glenbrook North (6th), Hinsdale Central (7th), Naperville North (8th), Northside (9th) and Normal West (10th) were all contenders a year ago who placed in the Top 10.
The IHSA Chess Tournament is open to the public. Elementary and junior high school players who are interested in watching high school competition are especially welcome. The Illinois Elementary School Association will hold its state chess tournament in the Peoria Civic Center Ballroom later in February.

Wood Sheriff in stable condition | News, Sports, Jobs - News and Sentinel
Wood Sheriff in stable condition
PARKERSBURG – Wood County Sheriff Ken Merritt was in stable condition Sunday at Camden Clark Medical Center's Memorial Campus after being transported to the hospital Sunday afternoon, a hospital official confirmed.
CCMC spokesman Tim Brunicardi said Merritt was in the process of being admitted to the hospital early Sunday evening and was in stable condition.
Chief Deputy Shawn Graham with the Wood County Sheriff's Office confirmed that Merritt had been admitted to the hospital and was "resting comfortably" Sunday after visits from several of his deputies.
Graham declined to provide specifics, but said an ambulance was called Sunday to Merritt's home on a medical call.
Today will be Graham's final day as chief deputy, following his retirement to take the position of Williamstown's police chief. Capt. M.K. Smith is scheduled to be sworn in today before the Wood County Commission as the new chief deputy, Graham said.
"While Ken's at the hospital – which hopefully won't be for long – the chief deputy will be in charge of the sheriff's department," Graham said Sunday.
