Roma sack Eusebio Di Francesco following dramatic Champions... Roma sporting director Monchi involved in airport... 'It is not mission impossible... there are games to play and... 'It's football, it's okay': Claudio Ranieri remains upbeat...
CLAUDIO RANIERI'S MANAGEMENT CV
1999–2000: Atlético Madrid
2018–2019: Fulham
It is the Italian's second stint in charge of the capital club, having been at the helm between 2009 and 2011.
The role became available after Eusebio Di Francesco was dismissed following the club's Champions League last-16 exit at the hands of Porto.
It followed a catastrophic 3-0 defeat by fierce rivals Lazio - their biggest ever league loss to their neighbours.
After Roma's last-16 exit, Monchi was involved in a heated exchange with fans at the airport as he returned to Italy on Thursday.
He apologised, though he said it had been blown out of proportion by the press.
Roma were also monitoring Maurizio Sarri's situation at Chelsea, with the Blues boss forced to laugh off reports that he had held dinner with club officials in London in February.
Their next clash is against struggling Empoli on Monday evening.
Ranieri started his playing career at Roma back in 1973. He has an impressive CV when managing the top sides across his homeland, too, having had spells in charge of Juventus, Inter, Napoli, Parma and Fiorentina.

UN-HABITAT Releases Report on African Cities and Urban Land Markets | SDG Knowledge Hub | IISD
UN-HABITAT Releases Report on African Cities and Urban Land Markets story highlights
The UN-HABITAT report on "The State of African Cities 2010: Governance, Inequalities and Urban Land Markets" was launched in Bamako, Mali, during the third African Ministerial Conference on Housing and Urban Development (AMCHUD III). 23 November 2010: The UN Human Settlements Programme (UN-HABITAT) has launched a report on "The State of African Cities 2010: Governance, Inequalities and Urban Land Markets." The report was announced in Bamako, Mali, during the third African Ministerial Conference on Housing and Urban Development (AMCHUD III).
The report urges governments to put in place careful urban planning to meet the needs of the poor and notes that, in the next 40 years, Africa will triple its urban population. The report highlights some positive developments including the improvement of slum dwellers across African countries, but notes that Africa will suffer disproportionately from the effects of climate change.
The report underscores that climate change is likely to exacerbate urban problems through voluntary or involuntary eco-migration to Africa's large and intermediate cities away from flood-prone localities. It stresses that cities are central in bringing about tomorrow's "green" economic benefits and welfare, the provision of decent jobs, and human well-being, within an environment liberated from the risks and threats of climate change, pollution, resource depletion and ecosystem degradation.
The report provides in each of its regional chapters an assessment of: social and economic geographies; urban land markets; geographies of climate change, including the threats of climate change for different sub-regions; and emerging issues. It notes that the manner in which cities are developed today will affect future options for resilience in the face of climate change. It also emphasizes the role of cities to contribute to global and local climate change adaptation and mitigation efforts. The report further highlights that climate change is one of the systemic shocks threatening cities, with short to long-term impacts including: the increasing frequency and severity of extreme weather events, such as hurricanes, storm surges or heat waves; and slow-onset changes that are semi-permanent or permanent, such as sea level rise, falling groundwater tables or desertification.

The collector-quality action characters seem to have been pulled out of the traditional TMNT displays, so, are a major thing. They’re produced with high-quality PVC. However, the packaging is quite cheap — they’re wrapped in colorless polythene bags. As they’re unbranded, they are quite pocket-friendly but nevertheless seem authentic.
This collection is a great way to show your children what their favorite TMNT characters appeared back on your own time.
The Mega Bloks TMNT Collectors Krang’s Rampage ninja turtle toy carries you directly into the scene in which Raph and Leo are fighting it out using Krang robot, which commanded by the evil mind is on a rampage and contains ripped off Channel 6 April O’Neil billboard.
The Krang stands out in 8 inches tall and the turtles have been micro action figures. Krang’s design is highly detailed and stands within an intriguing rampage pose. The turtle designs pose ultimate articulation and include their signature weapons, premium metallic shell detachable accessories along with a manhole cover rack. Because of detailed articulation, the micro action figures are poseable for combating any conflict. The toy is acceptable for kids between 10 to 15 decades.
Ninja Turtles automobiles are elaborate and enjoyable to play. Moreover, in comparison with conventional toy automobiles, their customizable designs are great for role-playing. Mega Bloks Donnie, for example, is a buildable racer using a functioning launcher and rubber wheels. In addition, you acquire buildable Casey Jones micro action figures with bat and stick attachments. Children can set up and play with this toy, as they want.
The flexibility of the toy has made it sought-after. But, in addition, it includes a durable design that functions 5 — 12-year-old children for ages. Though scratching is unavoidable, its plastic parts don’t break easily. This five-piece toy comes in a compact package for easier storage and or transport.
The TMNT toys can be quite useful for youngsters as the turtle personalities have some excellent qualities such as courageousness, loyalty, and teamwork. The children can take inspiration kind them and learn skills for life in an enjoyable manner.
The most significant factor when locating the ideal toy for the child is age. TMNT toys can help your child develop essential life skills such as cognitive, listening, social, and motor abilities. This just suggests that every age has the ideal toy that suits their requirements. Fortunately, the toys will probably have an old age which will direct parents about what to purchase.
While searching for a gift for your child, purchasing a Ninja Turtle toy is frequently a fantastic idea for a lot of reasons. These are toys that are versatile. Children can play together in a number of distinct ways, making the process enjoyable. Additionally, because of their specific styles and high quality of the building, they are acceptable for children of all ages.

where the Bristol Channel meets the Atlantic Ocean sits the granite island of Lundy replete with puffins, the Lundy cabbage and an opportunity to swim along with its resident colony of mischievous seals. Lundy is a destination for those seeking peace and nature, owned by the National Trust and operated by the Landmark Trust the whole island is a working farm with plenty of accommodation, its own pub and store.
from the landing beach the round-island route quickly leaves the masses behind to head north up the ruggedly beautiful east coast to the seal colony at Gannets Rock. On reaching the northern tip the whole of the island, an expanse of grassland and heath, can then be seen to the south. Walking along the western coast, with its rock features that take the full force of the Atlantic, the puffins can be viewed (in season) and Battery Point is a great place to explore more of the island’s past. As the walk completes the south coast it passes the remains of the castle and then heads into ‘town’ for some well earned refreshments.

MTV announced today that Floribama Shore has been picked up for a third season. The good news arrives four months following the reality show's sophomore run, which at 26 episodes was more than triple the length of Season 1.
Using the proven formula that made Jersey Shore a household name a decade ago, the latest entry in the franchise follows eight young adults spending their summers together in the Florida Panhandle. The show continues to be a strong performer for the network, ranking among the top reality originals on cable.
It won't be a long wait for Season 3 of Floribama Shore, as a fall return is being eyed. Fans can look forward to the cast reuniting and heading to St. Petersburg, FL for more romance, fun, and of course, drama.
Though this show is kind of pointless in one aspect, in another it is pretty fun and funny to watch. I mean if they want to show how they like to get drunk and act stupid for us to laugh at then why not do just that? And I really hope Nilsa and Gus get together!
I watched 1 episode, shows like this is why they cancel shows that have actual depth to them. Omg!!!! Seriously people WTF who wants to watch a bunch of hillbilly morons drink and act like idiots? Probably the other hillbilly morons. Shitty shows like this are why we are stuck with a orange moron in the white house.
My first reaction is "who watches this shit?" but obviously there are people out there who do. Good lawd.

Everything You Need to Know About Voting in Washington State in 2021 - Alliance for Gun Responsibility
If you would like information about voting outside Washington State, visit our friends at Vote.org.
It's election season once again! This year, Washington voters will elect candidates for vital local positions including big ones like mayor and city councilmembers and others like school board members, fire commissioners, port commissioners and more.
Local elected officials have a huge role to play in keeping our schools and communities safe from gun violence. They are responsible for implementing and funding existing gun laws and supporting local gun safety policies and programs.
Don't miss this chance to make your voice heard! Here's all the information you need about turning in your ballot:
You can register to vote, verify your registration, update your address, and find out what's on your ballot here.
It is not! In 2018, Washington enacted same-day voter registration, which means voters can register in-person and cast a ballot through Election Day. You can also register online (here) until July 26, 2021.
Washington is a vote by mail state, which means if you're registered to vote your ballot should appear in your mailbox a couple weeks before Election Day. The envelope will include a ballot, a secrecy envelope, and a return envelope. Follow the instructions that accompany your ballot then drop your ballot back in the mail (no stamp required!) or find a ballot drop box location here.
Primary election day is August 3, 2021 and the voting period begins July 16, 2021. Your ballot must be postmarked no later than Election Day or returned to a ballot drop box by 8 p.m. on Election Day. Once you've turned in your ballot, you can track it here.
You can find out which gun responsibility candidates are running in your area in our (interactive!) voter guide. Find out who will appear on your ballot here.
Do I need to declare a party?
No! Washington's Top 2 Primary allows voters to choose among all candidates running for each office so you do not have to declare a party affiliation to vote in the primary.
Yes. Every county has a voting center that is open during business hours throughout the voting period, which begins 18 days before Election Day and ends at 8:00PM on Election Day. Find the nearest voting center by logging in to MyVote.wa.gov or contacting your county elections department. Because of COVID-19, the CDC recommends finding alternatives to voting in person if possible. But if you do need to get to the polls in person, follow these safety recommendations from the CDC.
What if I need a new ballot?
No problem! You can get a replacement ballot delivered online by logging in to MyVote.wa.gov. You can also contact your county elections department for a replacement ballot.
— Kristen Ellingboe is Communications Manager with the Alliance.

The world of gaming is now heavily saturated by games with excellent and beautiful graphics Fernz Gate comes along with a retro style graphics. The era of 2D pixelated graphics has just begun and Fernz Gate is a testament that not all games needs to have high quality graphics to be successful.
Fernz Gate tells the story of Alex who somehow wind up in an alternate world full of magic called Fernland. Alex comes from a world where magic didn't exist so he was surprised to be in a world like Fernland. This is where the adventure begins for him as he starts manifesting powers. His main goal is to how he can get back to his own world and to do that he needs to defeat the Demon Lord that's causing trouble in Fernland.
The story is actually quite unique and is not as generic as I thought it would be. It made me remember about animes with similar themes. And yet it delivers a story unique to this game. Unlike most games where you get a taste of how overpowered your character is. Alex starts at his weakest. However, as you get further into the game, Alex becomes stronger and gains companions along the way that have their own unique traits and abilities.
The characters actually feel very monotonous. They seem to have no interesting qualities and traits. And sometimes I don't understand why they would act the way they do. It's probably because you don't really get an established idea of the character's backgrounds and traits so sometimes their decisions may seem very perplexing at times. You do get to learn about the character later in the game. But I feel like it is very important to let you know what's interesting about a character at the beginning of the game. Because it is in the beginning where you need to hook the gamer into pursuing to continue playing the game.
Gameplay wise you can't really differentiate one character from another because they all learn the same spells. Yes they can learn different weapon skills but other than that everyone feels very interchangeable.
Gameplay is turn-based and there's a timeline to let you know when your character will be moving or when the enemies will move. The game also has an auto-action function for when you feel like your character can take care of the enemies without breaking a sweat. Later in the game, they add buddies where you and your buddies must take a turn together. The companion starts the move and the main character follows up. They will also be able to make linked actions. It is very simple to understand and the game provides a tutorial when it introduces new mechanics.
Magic in this game can be learned by any of your character but in order to do so, you need to equip them with an elemental ring. Equipping them with an elemental ring will allow them to access that element's magic. You will get to learn different types of spells whenever your element levels up. In the same way you can also level up your weapons and learn weapon skills.
The layout of the UI in the game feels like this should be a game that is made for mobile or handheld consoles. The game even has a shop where you can purchase weapons and buddies through a luck of the draw. This shop is separate from the shops that you see in town. The town shops use gold coins for purchase while the shop uses gems which you can purchase with real money. I'm not quite sure why someone would really go out of their way to purchase items with real money because you can also earn the gems in-game just by completing achievements. In any case, you have got to be really into the game to actually want to purchase with real money.
The graphics and design is pretty good and even if it's in a 2D pixel style, the images in the UI use drawn art. I'm not quite sure but it looks like this game was made with an RPG Maker software which would explain why it looks the way it looks.
The background music for the game is okay but the opening screen actually is a little bit too loud for my liking so you might want to adjust the sound volume once you start the game for the first time. There seems to be only 3 sound files used for this game. The one for towns, the one for dungeons and the one for battle. These sounds will be the same wherever you go so it can get very stale very quickly. I wish they spent more time creating unique music for each place as that would have made a big difference.
Overall, Fernz Gate had the potential to be an interesting game but it's bogged down by repeated background music, uninteresting characters which are interchangeable with each other. You would have to be very interested in the genre to want to play this game.
If you'd like to check out the game for yourself, you can buy it at the PlayStation store for $14.99

SD card or MMC card - webOS Nation Forums
SD card or MMC card
08/23/2004, 05:28 AM #1
i would like to buy expansion card for my treo 600
i'm so confused with sd card and mmc card.
what's the difference ? which one should i buy ?
08/23/2004, 05:33 AM #2
You need to buy an SD card for the Treo. Check out the SD(IO) Cards forum. You will find good deals there. http://discussion.treocentral.com/forumdisplay.php?f=66
08/23/2004, 05:30 PM #3
MMC cards will not work in a Treo 600-period/end. Buy as big a SD card as you can afford. You will grow into the size quickly. Good idea to get a card reader also. Hot Synch is slow for MP3 files etc.
08/26/2004, 11:07 PM #4
Actually, MMC cards _do_ work. I'm using one right now (a 256mb HTL). The only problem is the card can slide out because it doesn't catch (no notches on the side). I have applications, pictures and MP3 files. No problems yet...

Although MMC's work perfectly on our Treos, PalmOne does recommend that we use genuine SD cards. They recommend this because genuine SD cards are made from better quality materials and are less likely to damage the unit. However, use of any high-end brand name MMC is pretty much the same.
In fact MMC's make slightly better use of storage space than SD cards of the same exact size. MMC's use Microsoft's FAT16 and SD cards use their own proprietary FAT12.

Check out the pictures on Lexar's page http://www.lexar.com/digfilm/index.html
See how SD cards have notches on their sides, while MMCs have straight edges? The catch in the SD slot will grab onto these notches.
MMCs are held in place by spring tension of the catch, even though there's no notch to hang on to! The MMC doesn't slide out (in the sense of falling out) but it does not fit securely into the slot as SD cards do. MMCs would occasionally disconnect.

The Cognitive Effects of ECT: Tolerability Versus Safety
In addition to having an excellent safety profile, ECT is widely acknowledged to be the most effective acute antidepressant treatment.
Concern about cognitive effects is the main reason ECT is not more widely prescribed for severe depression. ECT is mistakenly considered a "last resort" treatment, one that appears far down the list in treatment algorithms, if it is considered at all.1
This delay or failure to appropriately prescribe ECT results in seriously ill patients remaining depressed for prolonged periods; sometimes it results in suicides that could have been prevented or death from medical causes.2
The concern about cognitive effects is exaggerated; most ECT patients experience minor cognitive impairment, much of which is temporary. The restricted use of ECT because of overstated fears of memory loss is a significant public health problem. Part of this problem stems from the fact that the cognitive effects of ECT are considered a safety issue. I suggest that it is more appropriate to consider the cognitive impact of ECT a tolerability issue.
In medicine, safety almost always refers to risk (or lack thereof) of physical injury or death. When we think of the safety of a medical or surgical procedure, we consider first the mortality rate then the rate of complications, such as infection, disfigurement, or ongoing pain. All surgical procedures result in temporary postoperative pain, yet we never consider this part of the safety profile of the procedure. Likewise, with chemotherapy, we think of safety as the risk of blood dyscrasias and immunosuppression; temporary hair loss and "chemo brain," are unpleasant adverse effects, but not typically considered "safety" issues. This may have to do with the general acceptance of the idea that cancer is a life-threatening illness and the risk to benefit ratio clearly favors accepting bothersome, but nonserious, adverse effects in return for extended life.
Semkovska and McLoughlin3 performed a systematic review and meta-analysis of 84 studies (N = 2981) that used standardized tests to assess cognition in ECT patients. They concluded:
. . . cognitive abnormalities associated with ECT are mainly limited to the first 3 days posttreatment. Pretreatment functioning levels are subsequently recovered. After 15 days, processing speed, working memory, anterograde memory, and some aspects of executive function improve beyond baseline levels.
While some patients experience more substantial memory impairments, this is not typical. The most commonly reported memory effect, retrograde amnesia, represents the loss of certain past memories, a static (unless the memories return, in which case it is improving) content problem, not an ongoing problem of memory functioning.
MDD in its most severe forms, those for which ECT is appropriate, is a life-threatening illness. The lifetime suicide risk for patients with major mood disorders is in the 15% range.4 Unfortunately, the public has a very fuzzy idea of what serious depression is, particularly compared with clear and terrifying views of what cancer, diabetes, and heart disease are. It is because depression is not considered a life-threatening illness on a par with cancer or heart disease that a double standard of what constitutes safety exists.
ECT is considered the safest procedure performed under general anesthesia. It has an estimated mortality rate of 1 in 10,000 patients.5 A recent study of ECT mortality found no deaths in 73,440 treatments performed in Veterans Administration hospitals between 1999 and 2010 as well as a remarkably small number of significant adverse events.6
In addition to having an excellent safety profile, ECT is widely acknowledged to be the most effective acute antidepressant treatment. Remission/response rates in ECT clinical trials are typically in the 60% to 80% range, far higher than comparable rates for antidepressant medications.7-9 ECT also works more quickly than antidepressant medications, with improvement often evident within 1 week of treatment.10
During the recent FDA Neurological Devices Panel advisory meeting, the discussion of the safety of ECT was almost totally focused on cognition. Unfortunately, there was even the inference that memory effects of ECT might somehow be equated to a form of "brain damage." This is an unfounded and radical view, one that suggests a misunderstanding of the scientific literature on ECT and cognition, the modern practice of ECT, and brain physiology. Such a view may also have implications for academic medical center institutional review boards (IRBs) when they are considering ECT research protocols. IRB panels often include personnel who have no familiarity with ECT; therefore ECT protocols are subject to particular scrutiny of informed consent procedures, and warnings about cognitive impairment are often the focus.
We should strive to enhance the tolerability of ECT while maintaining its remarkable safety and efficacy profiles. Great strides are being made: the increasing implementation of a very cognitively benign form of ECT, right unilateral ultrabrief pulse ECT, is one such advancement.11 The cognitive impact of ECT, particularly retrograde amnesia, should be considered an important, but not overriding, tolerability issue. To consider it a safety issue is a distortion of the generally accepted medical understanding of what constitutes safety; it is also likely a result of the long-standing prejudice against ECT and the failure to understand the seriousness of severe major depression.

Issues within the financial ombudsman about payday advances bring increased to practically 200 weekly – rather than all of those experiencing difficulties always fit the image of low income consumers depending on brief lending products to get by.
Inside second half of 2016 the savings Ombudsman tool been given 5,095 brand new payday loaning issues, up 22percent throughout the very first half a year of the year. This build up came despite more difficult regulations with the questionable arena.
The statistics imply issues towards debts now are working about 850 every month. At the beginning of 2013 the ombudsman had been getting around 30-40 cases month-to-month. The vast majority of problems connect with affordability – for instance, a borrower claiming that the inspections this company will need to have accomplished are not performed correcly.
The ombudsman furthermore unveiled that those stressing about payday financial institutions bundled educators, nurse practitioners, college students and "even a handful of vets", expressing this particular had been a problem that stricken individuals from "all guides of life".
The rise observe a regulatory clampdown the multibillion-pound field, which the payday loans Georgia economical carry out power (FCA) set out policing in April 2014. Over the years payday loan providers currently expected to create more complicated affordability inspections in addition to their advertisements have come under deeper analysis, as well as January 2015 amount hats regarding financial products grabbed results, leading to reduced borrowing from the bank costs for several.
The ombudsman provider provides previously asserted that the rise in payday loan online complaints mostly shown customers raising understanding of their legal rights whenever situations get it wrong.
Checking out all financial grievances, the ombudsman took on 149,864 brand new matters over the past 6 months of 2016, that had been 11% upon one 50 % of the year.
Charge safety insurance policies remains more complained-about product, with only over 78,000 problems – getting back together more than half on the complete. However, the 3,000 o rtwo PPI complaints the ombudsman service generally get in a week was downward from a higher of 12,000.
Lender of Scotland, including companies such as the Halifax and Birmingham Midshires, was actually one complained-about businesses during cycle with 19,555 issues. Lloyds and Barclays were in secondly and 3rd put with 18,411 and 13,379 claims correspondingly.
The average "uphold rate" around six-month duration, where in actuality the ombudsman sees towards the individual, am 42percent. Coventry establishing environment had the most affordable uphold speed at 6per cent, while HFC financial institution, a subsidiary of HSBC, had the best at 87per cent.

Whitehead Institute - News - 2010 - New Whitehead Fellow on the hunt for rare genetic mutations
CAMBRIDGE, Mass. – As Whitehead Institute's newest Fellow, Yaniv Erlich comes to Cambridge in search of needles in very large haystacks.
In Erlich's case, the needles are rare genetic variants or mutations occurring in individual human genomes. His quest is born of the growing realization that large-scale genome sequencing projects—genome-wide association studies (GWAS)—are failing to pinpoint genetic causes of common diseases. Indeed, mounting evidence suggests that the common genetic mutations that GWASs have surfaced reveal little about disease manifestation and inheritance risk.
It now appears that rare variants are behind many diseases, prompting the development of the so-called common disease-rare variant hypothesis. As the name implies, rare variants are exceedingly difficult to detect, requiring costly, time-consuming whole-genome sequencing of large numbers of genetic samples. Doing so routinely is a highly impractical proposition. That's where Erlich comes in.
While pursuing his doctorate at Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory, Erlich developed a novel, highly efficient approach to sequencing referred to as compressed genotyping. The method relies heavily on sophisticated mathematical and statistical modeling to extract maximum predictive data from single runs on high-throughput sequencing platforms.
"It combines genetics and computation work to create a very powerful approach to finding rare mutations," says Erlich, a self-described math lover who insists he came to biology "by accident" as an undergraduate at Tel-Aviv University but "fell in love with it" after two classes.
At Whitehead, Erlich—who says he's excited about interacting with "such a concentrated core of top-notch scientists"—plans to employ his method not only to identify rare variants but also to determine their effects on phenotype. As part of an overall research plan he's dubbed "High-throughput Personal Genomics," Erlich also intends to use compressed genotyping to conduct large-scale screens for carriers of rare Mendelian diseases.
"The Whitehead Fellows program has launched the careers of some of the most successful young scientists in the country," says Whitehead Institute Director David Page. "We have every reason to believe Yaniv will add to the program's storied legacy."
Owing to a generous gift from longtime Whitehead supporters Andria and Paul Heafy, Erlich will operate his lab officially as the Andria and Paul Heafy Fellow of the Whitehead Institute.
Yaniv Erlich is a Fellow at Whitehead Institute for Biomedical Research, where his laboratory is located and all his research is conducted.

That is precisely why I do what I do, no amount of money is worth it if you aren't happy with your job/career. I spent the last year of my military career watching & thinking about what I wanted when I retired.
Exactly why I pull a flatbed. Dropped some prebuilt log looking house walls and Monday picking up a dozer blade and ripper for a total of 55k. Yeah they are heavy. Dozer has to move on a 9 axle trailer.
I concur. Calling it quits after 23.5 and when I started looking at after service jobs, every place I looked either in the paper or online there is a huge amount of opportunities. Here in Maine you can husl pretty much what you want when you want. That is if you buy into all the propaganda. Just excited to get going on next phase of school and our lives.

Sellers Tips | Elders Real Estate Wollongong
When it comes to real estate, the heart and the head are working together. Al well presented home will not only stand out from the crowd and encourage more inspections, it can ensure a higher sale price.
On the other hand, a home that looks shabby and neglected may turn prospective buyers away even before they've had an inspection.
Here is a sample list of enhancement items that will start you thinking.
Begin garden improvements as soon as you decide to sell. This will give time to new plants or fertilised grass to get established
Mow the grass (and the nature strip if required), weed and tidy up any garden beds including adding a few new plants. Cut back overhanging branches, trim hedges and sweep the pathways
Paint the gate and the letterbox if they need it
Rake up leaves and dispose of any branches, cuttings, and debris. Store tools and bins or arrange them tidily and roll up the hose
Up to a point, repair and repaint any part of the home that looks run down or shabby. consider the gutters, facia, doors and windows
Check and fix any rotten timber that's part of stairs, railings, deckboards etc.
Generally, clean the exterior. Bright sparkling windows and clean frames make a big difference
The walls and ceilings may need washing down. At a minimum, remove any stains wherever they are. Skirting boards are often overlooked. You may need to get the carpets cleaned
Doors and window frames should be cleaned and pained if required
The kitchen and bathroom(s) must be spotless ( and no doubt they are in your home! ) Buyers open and shut doors, cupboards, fridges and ovens. They inspect any appliances that are being sold with the house. these should all be clean and in working order
In the bathroom remove ant mildew and clean the grouting. A new shower curtain will be inexpensive and is a good idea
You can consider actually "styling" your home by hiring in other furniture, hanging pictures and placing mirrors where they can create a larger room size impression. The same applies to an outside area like a patio or garden which can "dressed" if necessary with the right sort of outdoor entertaining furniture
Most buyers will be visiting more than one home on the same day so its competition time. The following finishing touches will help ice the cake. Make sure the home is warm in winter and cool in summer

UCCA Art Film Screening: Documentary Four Springs Screening and Talk
Language: Film: Guizhou Dushan Dialect (with Chinese and English subtitles) Talk: Chinese only
Director Lu Qingyi's first documentary feature, Four Springs, took five years to complete. Shot from a first-person perspective, the film captures the everyday lives of the director's parents in a small rural town. Their personalities, sometimes straightforward, sometimes dramatic, reflect their belief in living unrestrained, naturalistic lives. This "family movie" about an unconventional family will make audiences reflect on their own relatives' idiosyncrasies. UCCA invites Director Lu Qinyi, writer Deng Anqi, artist Liu Yaohua, and columnist Xu Qinan for a post-screening discussion, during which Director Lu Qinyi will reveal his creative process for the film.
Lu Qingyi (Director)
Lu Qingyi was born in the town of Mawei in Dushan County, Guizhou Province. At the age of 16 Lu left his hometown for Beijing, and is currently engaged in filmmaking.
Deng Anqi (Writer)
Born in 1984 in Wuxue, Hubei Province, Deng Anqi published novels include Kingdom on the Paper (2011), Soft Distance (2013), and Candy in the Mountains (2016).
Liu Yaohua (Artist)
Liu Yaohua graduated with a Masters from the Department of Architecture at Chang'an University, and has since worked as an architect, artist's assistant, and magazine editor, as well as in a number of jobs in the contemporary art field.
Xu Qinan (Columnist)
Xu Qinan hails from Jiangsu, and now resides in Shenzhen. Xu is the author of the column "Cultural Phenomena," and has been a long-standing supporter of research in cultural history, theater, and film. Her research currently focuses on cultural heritage sites.

Tragic crash occurs as older couple crosses street in Texas | B. L. Jensen, L.P.
Tragic crash occurs as older couple crosses street in Texas
On behalf of B. L. Jensen, L.P. posted in SUV Accidents on Tuesday, February 9, 2016.
Many Texas road crossings are busy places comprised of both motor vehicle and pedestrian traffic. That fact does not diminish the grief and sorrow families experience when they lose loved ones in a crash. A recent incident involved two fatalities for which a 21-year-old driver seems to have been responsible.
The tragedy occurred in the Clear Lake area on a recent Wednesday. Apparently, a couple was on their way to a local Intermediate school for a special event that evening. The man, age 64, and his 66-year-old spouse were reportedly crossing the street together when a vehicle struck them both.
Sadly, the woman was pronounced dead on site. The man was transported to an area hospital for emergency care but later succumbed to his injuries. Police reported that the man behind the wheel of the car that hit the pedestrians remained at the scene of the crash to cooperate with authorities in their preliminary investigations.
Officials say it was not the first fatal crash to occur in that particular area. Several other similar tragedies have taken place in the same vicinity over the past few years. In Texas, when a family loses loved ones in a motor vehicle collision that was deemed to have been caused by the negligence of another party, they may seek restitution on behalf of the deceased by filing a legal claim in a civil court. While no amount of monetary recovery can replace the loss of human lives, court-awarded compensation in a successfully litigated claim can be used to help pay funeral expenses and offset other losses associated with a fatal accident.

The 57-year-old Winnipeg woman has been missing since July 11. A $20,000 reward has been offered for anyone with information that would lead to Krull being found. Family and friends still conduct searches for her three times a week and the police investigation is ongoing.
"As time goes on, it doesn't get any easier, especially with birthdays and holidays coming up," Connie Muscat, a family spokesperson, said Monday. "Nobody thought that it would go this long."
Both Thelma's husband, Robert, and her daughter, Lisa Besser, had birthdays in the past week.
"Every day, we hope for that one tip," Muscat said. "The family still has hope. But the scariest part is the unknown."
Police are reminding hunters, hikers and anyone else to be on the lookout for any items associated with Krull now that the forests are thinning with the change in seasons.
"With the fall arriving, leaves are falling off the trees and things that weren't visible before may be visible now," police spokesperson Const. Eric Hofley said.
When Krull disappeared in the East Kildonan-Valley Gardens area that Saturday morning, she was wearing a bright reddish-orange T-shirt, black Capri-style pants, tan/brown hiking style boots and was carrying a black fanny pack. Krull is described as a 5-foot-4, 170-pound white woman with short, dyed-blonde hair with a purple streak.
Anyone with any information regarding this matter is asked to contact investigators at 204-986-6508 or Crime Stoppers at 204-786-TIPS (8477).

Frankincense - King of Oils - doTERRA Essential Oil Wellness Advocate
Check this out. Amazing stories. I personally take a drop of Frankincense every day. Sourced from Oman, the best place in the world to get Frankincense.

I have had breast cancer surgery to remove left breast I had one chemo treatment it was so harsh I did not take anymore. I am trying to eat a good diet , and essential oils but being new to the use of oils I need to know what the most important ones to use. My cancer was stage 3. Thanks for the information.
12/5/2016 05:29:09 am
That is so scary. I am so glad you are seeking healthy alternatives. A good diet is a great first step. I hope that includes not using processed food. I have a great recipe for homemade mayonnaise. Homemade ketchup is another biggy.
I know someone right now who is using the Frankincense to help with scarring. I also take it daily to help reduce inflammation. Inflammation is huge in many health issues. They call it the King of Oils but it has so many uses. I would definitely start there. If there are other specific issues like digestive, hormonal, ..., let me know and we can address those, too.
Besides eating healthy, I would also recommend getting rid of cleaners in your home. There are so many alternatives, most consisting of baking soda, vinegar, or other readily available, inexpensive items. Dryer sheets being #1 on the bad chemicals list. Adding essential oils makes a lot of these DIY cleaners just as powerful, sometimes using them with only water.
I am so sorry you have to go through this. I wish you all the best in your recovery and future wellness. Be assured you are on the right track. Ridding our lives of as many chemicals, drugs, and processed foods is a big start.

This competitive nature has gotten me to where I am today. It's not to say that my parents and other influences aren't a huge element of my achievements, because they are. Part of the challenge to myself has always been to make them proud. Doing better than expected is how I chose to do that most of the time. It has made me push harder when I didn't think I had it in me, and go above and beyond when I knew I could. It has served me well in life, so I'm glad that I treat myself like a star athlete, even if only in my mind.

Blog – Page 2 – Paul Wood Photography
Yesterday, a client asked me if I could copy some photos from the SD card on her phone. Her phone was no longer able to read the card, and it had some photos of her recently deceased mother that she desperately wanted to save.
Today, I had to tell her there was nothing I could do.
I tried. I spent hours trying different things. But, in the end, I had to give up. I'm going to send her to an IT company to try next, but it brings up an issue near and dear to my heart. Where was the backup? Most people, unless they've lost data at some point, have no idea that they need to backup their images and data.
As a photographer, I'm in the business of preserving memories. Memories of family, of friends, of special events on our lives. And the best way to do that with a photograph is to print it. Imagine handing your grandchildren an 8 inch floppy disk, your only copy of your wedding pictures. What will they do? CDs and DVDs are rapidly being phased out of newer computers. What will you do with that CD in 10 years?
When people have to evacuate because of a natural disaster, what's the first thing they take, after they make sure the family is safe? Photo albums.
Print what you want to keep.
"But what happens when another Katrina comes and destroys all my photos?"
That's where your backup comes in. If my client had enabled the automatic upload feature provided by Google+ or Dropbox or iCloud or several other apps, she would have copies of all the images she'd taken online. It's automatic. You don't have to remember, you don't have to start it. It just happens.
If she'd copied the data to her computer, she'd have another copy there. And if she backed up her computer, she'd have yet another copy.
"But backing up my computer is hard."
I use Crashplan. $5 a month and unlimited storage. I like it the best of all the cloud backup options, but it's certainly not your only choice. Install the program, and it will automatically back up your files and photos in the background. You don't have to remember to back up your computer; it does it for you. Granted, that initial backup takes a long time if you have a lot of photos and a slow connection, but there's no time like the present to start.
What will you do when all your digital images disappear?
Website go boom.
I've rebuilt most of the info pages, and I'm working on the old blog posts. You may still see some broken links of images until I get this fixed.

A Proposal in the Snow
Quintin, the pastor at the Light of the Lord church here in Slidell, came to us a while back with a request: to photograph his proposal to his girlfriend Laura. She had always dreamed of being proposed to in the snow, and he was determined to make that happen.
We live in south Louisiana. We don't get much snow down here. But he made it work.
He spent days creating a clearing and a path in the woods near his father's chicken farm. His chainsaw broke two trees in, and he had to chop the rest by hand. He bought an artificial snow machine and ran power out to the newly created clearing. He spent the evening before the proposal laying tarps, creating the snow, and making all the preparations, working late into the night lit only by flashlight.
In the morning, he invited Laura to breakfast with his father, and preparation for the spending the day together. She knew it would be a special day, she just didn't realize it would start quite so early.
After we arrived and got into position, he told Laura to come quickly; there was a deer giving birth out in the woods. She ran quickly with him, struggling to delete photos on her iPhone so that she would have space for more.
And then they arrived at the clearing.
The snow was magical to watch; we're not used to this sort of thing.
Quintin kneeled in the snow to propose. He had a prepared script, but he was so nervous he couldn't get through all of it.
But of course, she said "yes".
Of course, since it's snow, you've gotta make snow angels.
And then making up is fun

How do I listen to the music and have it not picked up
Game Anyone? » Video Walkthrough Recording » Recording and Editing Discussion » How do I listen to the music and have it not picked up
Author Topic: How do I listen to the music and have it not picked up (Read 6641 times)
« on: July 25, 2014, 01:37:39 AM »
I am currently using Camtasia to add the commentary track to my playthroughs. The problem here is that when I want to do a live commentary, the music gets picked up too, and I am less motivated when I have to turn the volume off to record my voice. How is it possible for me to listen to the in-game sounds and have those not picked up?
I started my first playthrough on July 17, 2013 and by the end of June 2014, managed to make a whopping 170 episodes. Do you think that it is too fast, and should I slow down in the amount of episodes made?

Wear headphones...? I thought it was common knowledge to wear them when you record. <_<

recording from the pc, and the sound recorder picks up everything that goes through, resulting in contamination
« Reply #3 on: July 25, 2014, 08:18:14 AM »
Compress the vocal track and put the noise floor above the music; this will isolate your vocals for volume increase. When you later overlay the vocals over the game, the game sound on the vocal track will still be present, but be much quieter than the game's sound. If they're in sync, you won't hear it. And the fact that it is present will make it easier to sync up.
Or just wear headphones after getting your reference noise.
We don't wear headphones since we do two-person commentary. We also edit the vocals to silence when we aren't talking, depends how much effort you want to put into it.

I wouldn't really advise compression, if you can avoid it...
Also, you can both wear headphones and still hear each other. So I don't know why you wouldn't wear them when doing dual commentary.
@Warblefly, Just turn the in-game audio pick up off in your recorder's settings...or have your recorder record them to seperate audio streams.

Compressing vocal-only tracks is fairly standard practice, why on earth would you advise against it?
I'm sure we could direct the vocals through the headphones; or we could just not wear them. Why bother if they aren't needed?
Quote from: Warblefly41 on July 25, 2014, 03:58:40 AM
Anyway, I assumed you were already recording your vocals separately?

It's standard... If you were recording a CD. You aren't singing, FYI.
They aren't needed? Most people would die from the infinite feedback loop first, though, so it's pretty well needed.

Yes, you can really hear that deadly feedback in my videos. You don't know what you're talking about.
But er, yes, back to the topic at hand, compression is useful for evening out vocals and has a noise floor so background noises are less obvious.
The audacity wiki has a nice explanation "Noise Floor: The compressor adjusts the gain on audio below this background level so as to prevent it being unduly amplified in processing. This is mainly useful when compressing speech, to prevent the gain increasing during pauses and so over-amplifying the background noise."
Funnily enough, I do occasionally sing when playing games.

I didn't say I could hear feedback... I said that real microhpones can cause feedback loops if you have them within proximity to your speakers, this isn't even counting that it could pick up your in-game audio if, it's too loud.
There are things you could improve upon, and you wouldn't need to compress in the first place.

No, that isn't what you said, and would only come into play if you are sending the microphone to the speakers, which would be pointless since we aren't wearing headphones and can hear ourselves just fine.
So your argument against using a compressor is that if you don't need one, you don't need one, and that one use of a compressor is that professionally produced music has compression on the singing?

The Brenig Way – Run Challenge is a 1 day, fully guided and supported ‘run’ following the 32 mile linear trail, from Corwen, in the Vale of Llangollen to the Llyn Brenig Reservoir Dam, high on the Denbigh Moors. The route involves 4628ft of ascent and represents an exhilarating, challenging excursion for those that take it on. The scenery is beautiful along the way – you’ll cover ground that isn’t very well trodden, on good paths that discreetly wind their way through the Dee Valley, through Glan Yr Afon, Maerdy. Clocaenog Forest, Cyfylliog and a gentle ascent alongside the River Clwyedog which ultimately brings you out on the archaeological trail at Llyn Brenig and a flat jog in to the finish.
Checkpoint support – The day is split into 5 sections – approximately 5-7 miles in length, and at the end of each one we’ll meet you with your spare gear should you wish to change clothing policy, first aid provision and lots of food and drink to keep you going!
Transport – If the worst happens and you can’t continue, through injury or extreme fatigue – we’ll take care of getting you back to where you need to be. We’ll also carry any spare clothing/footwear or anything else (within reason!) that you may want at some point during the day. We’ll also transport you back to your car in Corwen, if required when we’ve replenished in the cafe at the visitor centre!
We will be averaging around 3.8mph moving time – a brisk walking pace for most, with rest stops at each CP, so the emphasis is on keeping going, not speed! Think of walking briskly the climbs, jogging the flat sections and running the descents and you’ll end up with this average pace, or thereabouts. The pace will be dictated by the Run Leaders.

LINK and ADA are less correlated to Bitcoin than USDT
Chainlink is 956% up since Black Thursday
Cardano (ADA) has just rolled out Shelley upgrade
Analytics firm Skew believes that two major altcoins, Cardano's ADA and Chainlink's LINK, are much less correlated to Bitcoin than the other top crypto assets are, including Tether.
In their recent tweet, analysts at Skew published a graph showing that two top-tier altcoins, ADA and LINK, are not so much related to Bitcoin as to the other altcoins on the Top 10 list.
In fact, these two assets are the least correlated with BTC. Among the Top 10 coins, the biggest correlation to BTC can be seen for Bitcoin Cash (BCH), Bitcoin SV (BSV) and Litecoin (LTC): 0.7.
Earlier this year, Santiment analytics agency shared a report in which it announced that there was an inverse correlation between Bitcoin and the most popular stablecoin, USDT. Therefore, the amount of USDT on crypto exchanges directly affects the level Bitcoin is trading at.
If the correlation is direct, the price of assets tends to move in the same direction. However, the weaker the correlation is, the better chance an altcoin has to move independently of Bitcoin.
LINK has recently surprised the market by showing a massive rise, surging from the $4.75 area to $9 and now over $13 per coin, according to data from CoinMarketCap.
After a 37-percent rise on Sunday, Aug. 9, LINK managed to briefly take the Top 3 position, pushing back Tether and XRP, based on data from OnChainFx provided by Messari.
However, at press time, CoinMarketCap shows that Chainlink holds spot number 6. This was preceded by several major partnerships that Chainlink was engaged in and threats from the fake Zeus Capital bank.
Despite its recent pull back, the coin now remains more than 956 percent up from its drop on Black Thursday (March 12).
On July 31, the Cardano platform officially performed its long-expected code upgrade, Shelley. According to founder Charles Hoskinson, this hard fork will make the platform completely decentralized and ensure the appearance of smart contracts, dapps and native assets on Cardano.
Hoskinson also proudly stated that, as soon as all that appears, ADA will become the best cryptocurrency out there. Many believe the future fundamentals to be favorable for ADA to rise in value.

Southeastern Community College ASL program
Info concerning Southeastern Community College ASL program, and registering for discussion sections and departmental seminars. As a student, your first stop should be the registrar's office, where you can pick up a free copy of both the academic calendar and course catalog, in order to find available credit classes that you may be interested in taking. In-person class registration has largely been replaced with online sign-up, and many schools offer mobile apps that streamline the course registration process. Finally, check with your major department for assistance with prerequisites, tuition payment deadlines, and Southeastern Community College Language Learning information. Please use the form above to request admissions info for Southeastern Community College.
If you want to learn to speak a language, there's no easy way around straight memorization, speaking practice, diction drills, and vocabulary fluency. If you note that a young child can pick up a new language in under four years just by watching and listening to others, think what you can do with concentrated language study. The Foreign Service Institute has developed rapid-learning language programs in both French and Spanish, and the Rosetta Stone program is a software-based introduction to a language, which teaches you basic vocabulary, pronunciation, spelling, and grammar. Beyond consideration for Southeastern Community College ASL program, you may think about Ramapo College class registration for complementary electives to your primary course of study.
Aerospace operations technicians and mechanics need only an associates degree to begin working. They must maintain equipment used in developing and testing new aircraft and spacecraft. Increasingly, these workers must be able to use computer-based modeling (CAD) and simulation tools in their work. Certification is offered by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). Both companies and the FAA seek to ensure the highest standards for the safety of the aircraft. In fact, SpaceTEC, the National Science Foundation Center for Aerospace Technical Education, coordinates a nationwide program through community and technical colleges to help students prepare for certification. The median annual wage for aerospace engineers with a bachelors degree was $107,830, while aircraft technicians and mechanics holding an associate's degree earned $66,180, as of May 2017.

Admissions offices require an official transcript documenting the classes you have completed. Further, virtually all accredited colleges and universities require students to take either the SAT Test or ACT Exam. It's better to study an hour a day for several months leading up to a college entrance exam rather than attempting to cram vocabulary and math practice into just a few weeks. The 4-hour SAT test contains three sections, namely writing, critical reading, and mathematics. Most of the questions are multiple-choice, although there is an essay writing section. The ACT measures what you've learned in school, as opposed to the SAT, which focuses more on reasoning ability. The ACT consists of four multiple-choice tests: English, reading, mathematics, and science. If your college requires a writing test, you can take the ACT+ Writing. Other college admissions information sources, like Stonehill College virtual campus tour, promote the use of standardized tests in admissions decisions because of the differences in course requirements, high school GPA, and grade curve difficulty among US schools. You can also explore Worcester State University forum, in order to further target your academic interests.
High school grades are the most important admissions factor in getting accepted to the college of your choice, along with letters of recommendation and standardized test scores. According to data on Lamar Institute of Technology rankings 4icu pages, an outstanding academic record consists of a high GPA in courses of increasing difficulty. Almost half of colleges use placement tests and a waiting list, and most community colleges have transfer agreements in place with bachelor's degree programs at four-year colleges and universities. You should compare Limestone College graduation ceremony with other schools that you're considering.
Further, the Federal Work-Study Program provides an opportunity to earn money while going to school, so you don't have to rely exclusively on student loans. Most private loan programs are hinged to a financial index, such as the BBA LIBOR Rate, plus an overhead charge. Financial aid may be administered via The University of Connecticut financial aid disbursement spring 2017 or through academic departments. Alternatively, student credit cards may seem like a good short-term solution, but the interest rates are high, and credit cards often carry an annual fee. A credit card can help you build a credit history, if you use it wisely. But use it for emergencies only and don't spend more than you can afford to pay back. If you decide to get a credit card, make sure you understand the terms, and try to meet your minimum monthly payments on time. If you do not, the credit card companies can raise your interest rate suddenly and without prior notice. This can translate into a ballooning debt payment that becomes unmanageable.
As the US economy keeps improving, many school districts are seeking to hire new graduates in the fields of business administration, engineering, and medical services. Whether you already work in language translation services, or are a recent management school graduate, this may be a good time to seek a new career. Jobs for language majors are always in demand, and fields such as business finance, marketing, and office management are some of the fastest growing corporate fields. Finding out about University of Idaho web development, on the other hand, may broaden your college education in order to appeal to a wider variety of employers.
Apply to several colleges and universities at the same time, and if you have the grades and test scores, give yourself a chance to gain admission to an accredited scholarship program by doing something outstanding in either high school or community college. Southeastern Community College applications may be submitted by using the contact form at the top of this page. It may be possible to complete some of your degree requirements online, thereby saving money on tuition costs and course fees. It isn't difficult to find articles in US News & World Report magazine written about Culver Academies admission application fee.

I put the finishing touches on my tax return. Online retail tax fight heats up on Arizona returns
If you live in Arizona, you better start saving your receipts. A new line on the state's tax return is asking people how much shopping they've done out of state. Free tax help available for Arizonans
Whether you use an accountant, a computer program, or try to file your tax returns on your own, it can be a complicated and expensive process. Gov. Brewer Calls for More Tax Cuts, Less Regulation in State of the State Address
The centennial legislature begins its session today, as Governor Jan Brewer gives her state of the state address. And, for the first time in a few years, lawmakers will not be dealing with a budget deficit. But, as KJZZ's Mark Brodie reports, they will still have plenty to debate. AZ Lawmaker: Next Budget Won't Have Any Cuts
One of Arizona's main budget-writers says he doesn't expect any more spending cuts in the budget for the coming fiscal year. From Phoenix, KJZZ's Mark Brodie reports. AZ: In the Money?
Arizona is bringing in more money than expected. August revenues were around eight and a half percent higher than the same month last year. And, so far this fiscal year, the state has collected one and a half billion dollars more than it did last year. So…the obvious question is…what should the state do with that cash? « first

Messages Beta: A review | Macgasm
Messages Beta: A review
Grant Brünner | Thursday, February 16th, 2012
With the announcement of Mac OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion today, Apple also released a beta of their brand new chat client for OS X called Messages. This completely replaces iChat, but it offers something we've all been waiting for: iMessage support.
AOL Instant Messenger, Google Talk, and Facebook chat all still work in the new Messages app, and they look better than ever. The tabbed interface is as seamless and slick as we could hope. Hands down, this is the most stylish chat client available today.
On first launch, you'll be asked to log into your Apple account in the app. From then on, iMessage will appear in your preferences. You'll be able to enable and disable the account, add aliases, and change which address identifies you to the receiver. You can also opt-in to sending read receipts, but nobody does that unless their business requires it. No need to help out the stalkers.
Now you have the ability to add your intended recipients and type your message.
Once you send, your message will appear. The cool thing? You can scroll upward, and previous conversations you had will appear automatically. Incredibly smart on Apple's part, and completely intuitive for users.
Does your contact have the ability to FaceTime with you? Great! A little video icon will appear in the upper right-hand corner. When you click it, a drop down will appear that allows you to pick which address (email, phone number) you want to use to initiate a FaceTime chat. It's fantastic, and we're incredibly happy to see these improvements come to the Mac. Don't forget to pick up your copy of the beta today!

Deventer: Return of the Pontoon Bridge - 3Develop image blog
by Frans Blok · Published 29. December 2015 · Updated 22. June 2022
A few days before Christmas, I was in Deventer once again. This time I was more lucky with the weather than a few months ago. Finally the sky looked more or less like in the images and animations that I made for the Room for the River project. And also the bank near the IJjsselhotel looked like it did in my visualizations, since the project, with the aim to reduce the risk of flooding, has recently been completed.
For an optimum experience, when viewing the animation the use of headphones is recommended:
From Wilhelmina Bridge, you have a nice overview of the area. On the right we see the river IJssel, on the left Worp Park with the IJssel Hotel, and in the foreground the newly created channel that connects a nearby lake called Bolwerksplas with the river:
As an extension of the Avenue, at the former location (1600-1948) of the famous pontoon bridge, a pier has been constructed for the ferry. The pier has a floating section and as a result can be used even at extreme water levels. The design, with the floating part built on two boats, is referring to the historic bridge:
The pier is a beautiful spot to view the Room for the River project, though the Deventer skyline, dominated by Lebuïnus Church, also attracts a lot of attention:
From the pier there is also a good view of the peninsula between the river and the new channel, as well as the new island breakwaters in the river:
Next to the pier at the new embankment, a staircase with seating elements has been made, which also creates a fine place to enjoy the view. On this day in December it was in fact almost warm enough to have a picnic:
Of course we also take a look underneath the pier. A sturdy anthracite colored steel construction with a wooden deck:

Aventine Renewable Energy Founded in 2003, was a bioethanol and biodiesel company based in Pekin, Illinois that produced and marketed these biofuels.
Aventine engaged in the production and marketing of corn-based fuel-grade ethanol in the United States. Aventine marketed and distributed ethanol to many of the leading energy and trading companies in the United States. Aventine's facilities produced several co-products while producing ethanol, such as distillers grain, corn gluten meal and feed, corn oil, corn germ and grain distillers dried yeast. Aventine marketed these co-products primarily to livestock producers and other end users as a substitute for corn and other sources of starch and protein.
Aventine's main office was located in Pekin, Illinois and had operations in Pekin, Illinois and Aurora, Nebraska.[1]
The company, which was delisted from the New York Stock Exchange after its stock crashed after initially being listed in 2006, filed Chapter 11 bankruptcy on April 8, 2009.[2] It emerged from bankruptcy March 16, 2010.

INNEX’s Cost-Saving Ceramic Products
INNEX News
Like most material engineers and scientists, you’ve probably dismissed ceramics in the past because you thought ceramic was brittle. But technical ceramics are different from the common ceramics used in pottery, for example. Ceramic is no longer the fragile material associated with the 1970’s but the technology of the future and noted for being a hard, exceptionally smooth surface, and tough.
The technical family of ceramics is one of the few materials in the world that has properties of both toughness and hardness. We currently provide a huge range of ceramic wear solutions – and we’re developing new ceramics in our labs right now which will be available soon. Common applications include wear resistant components, electronic substrates, spark plug insulators, transparent envelopes for lighting, structural refractories, wear resistant components, ceramic-to-metal seals, cutting tools, abrasives, thermal insulation, catalyst carriers, biomedical implants, and much more.
For the past 18 years, INNEX has, among many other projects, manufactured parts for the international compaction tooling industry. In our search for harder more durable materials, an intense ceramic research and development program, supported by local universities and ceramic experts, was established. Through this collaboration a unique design, Ceraminator™ evolved which is now a successful part of our US patented product line. Currently, the patented Ceraminator™ line of tools that fight wear is successfully being used in production throughout the battery industry in U.S., European and Asian markets.
The patented Ceraminator™ product line involves a ceramic core rod assembly consisting of a steel housing, a steel mandrel and a ceramic sleeve. The design allows for replacement of the ceramic sleeves and mandrels while reusing the housing. This rework cycle and proprietary high strength ceramic increase tool wear life up to ten times longer by eliminating the need to manufacture entirely new parts; thus resulting in significant cost savings versus continually purchasing disposable replacement parts.
Join the countless companies that have discovered how ceramic technology can improve productivity! Here’s a list of our current products. We have an ever-expanding portfolio of materials and products so if you are interested in something you don’t see on this list, please contact us.

Choose Ceramics Over Steel Replacement Parts
INNEX News
Why Choose Ceramics Instead of Steel?
Give your operation the benefits of a new life span of 4 to 6, to even 10 times longer. Your operation could have zero downtime associated with replacement parts, earn immediate ROI (return on investment), see an impressive impact on price performance ratio, and lower overall cost of operations.
Technical ceramics are not your standard pottery ceramics. Our ceramics are one of the few materials in the world having such a high level of both toughness and hardness. Technical ceramics outperform steel, last longer than metal, and survive greater extremes of heat, pressure and tonnage.
We offer high wear resistant ceramic and cermet materials. They have phenomenal properties with increased toughness and wear. This provides the added leverage to increase capacity and bottom line profit. Our nano ceramics have an optic smooth surface finish designed to reduce friction, improve self lubrication, increase insulation, and are electrically conductive and even magnetic.
Benefits of Ceramic Technology
4-5x wear life of steel punches and dies
Drastically reduces powder sticking to tip and barrel
Material technology reduces need to add lubrication
Shut down for maintenance is far less
Reduces the risk of metal toxicity
Meets CFR 21 and leach test, metal detectable
Material density slows bacteria growth
Green and environmentally friendly

Ceramic dies with color-coded plastic jackets provide many advantages for battery manufacturing.
Pharmaceutical Unit
INNEX’s ceramic technologies are the only ceramics in the world to meet FDA compliance CFR 21 and withstand the high demand in a pharmaceutical production environment. Our metal detectable ceramic will keep running long past old steel and will not clog or still, commonly known as picking and sticking. Your production equipment will keep running and throughput and capacity will increase significantly. This material is extremely hard with a smooth surface. It feels and performs as if self-lubricated.
Pump & Metering Unit
Replacement parts can be very expensive. INNEX can save you significant money. We produce parts for the largest battery companies of the world at a fraction of the cost. We can produce any size or shape for pumping equipment replacement parts. Ask about our portfolio of custom blended Ceraminator Plus™ powders that feature extremely hard and smooth self-lubricating surfaces.

Easyprox Nano is a Net2 access control unit in a door handle. It combines a wireless access control unit and a reader in one. Net2 is a PC based security system for controlling access through doors. Net2 allows users to be given access to particular areas at certain times. Because the system is networked, all administration can be done from a central point.
Easyprox Nano is supplied with everything needed to secure one door, including a tubular mortice latch. It communicates with Net2 software at a central point by a secure, low power radio link. Easyprox Nano is battery powered which means that the unit is totally wireless as it does not require mains power.
Installation is very cost effective and creates minimal disruption as no cable is required to communicate between doors and there is no need to wire into mains. Easyprox Nano benefits from unique ease of installation and configuration – no knowledge of networks is required.
One Easyprox Nano controls a single door. It may be installed alongside other Net2 Nano, Net2 plus or Net2 classic control units.
As with all Net2 control units, Easyprox Nano is designed to work seamlessly in the event of a communications failure. It will continue to permit or deny access to users as appropriate. Once
Twitter is rolling out a new 280-character limit for Tweets following a successful trial period with a selected number of users.
While Twitter has experimented with a number of new features that have drastically changed the experience, such as quoted Tweets, threads and images that don’t count towards the limit of a post, the 140 limit has remained sacrosanct. The same constraint on Direct Messages was lifted in 2015 however.
Twitter said that although there might be an “emotional constraint” to the old limit, it is not worried that longer posts will damage the appeal of the platform.
It said that just five percent of Tweets were longer than 140 characters and just two percent were in excess of 190. This, it said, showed users were able to add more information in their Tweets without sacrificing the brevity of the platform.
“During the first few days of the test many people Tweeted the full 280 limit because it was new and novel, but soon after behavior normalized,” said Aliza Rosen, Twitter Product Manager. “We saw when people needed to use more than 140 characters, they Tweeted more easily and more often. But importantly, people Tweeted below 140 most of the time and the brevity of Twitter remained.”

When your child is diagnosed with ADHD, the first question crossing your mind might be, “Is ADHD genetic?”[1]. Most parents of children who have been diagnosed with ADHD appear to be guilty of associating the disorder with their children’s educational activities. According to a study, ADHD tends to run in families[2] and, in some cases, the genes you inherit from your parents are considered one primary factor in the development of the disease.
ADHD cannot be prevented or cured[3]. However, early diagnosis and a good treatment plan and medication can help ADHD patients relax and deal with their symptoms.
Until now, the exact causes of ADHD are unknown, although neurobiology and genetics are considered contributing factors leading to the disease.
Attention Deficiency Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD or ADD) is a brain disorder with a variety of possible causes — though the medical profession currently cannot determine which one is predominant.
In recent decades, scientists have identified possible factors[4] that can lead to the onset of ADHD. Some causes for ADHD have been proposed, including brain injury, maternal smoking, and drug use, or maternal exposure to environmental toxins during pregnancy, sugar, and food additives, or environmental causes.

Dreamfall: from sketch to 3D model | Adventure Gamers
» Home / Articles / Archived Previews / Dreamfall: from sketch to 3D model
Marek Bronstring — January 15, 2005
Usually what we see of a game is only the final iteration of a long and arduous design process. In this preview of Dreamfall: The Longest Journey, we're going to show you a small glimpse of the processes involved in designing Zoë, the game's main character. On the next page you will see a scene from the game from concept to finish. If you're a regular reader of Adventure Gamers, you're probably very familiar with this scene, and now you will get to see how it came to fruition. Most of these images appear as online exclusives, and the captions are based on the designer's own commentary.
1: These are very early sketches of Zoë, in which the designers try to define her appearance. She was originally going to have a typical European look. This look was later turned down, as the developers decided that Zoë would originate from Casablanca in North-Africa instead. Zoë was made to look more exotic and less traditional than many characters found in other games. Several different sketches and facial expressions were tried out.
2: Here Zoë is starting to take on a more concrete form. The developers have found a direction that they are satisfied with, though are still unsure of some of the details, such as her hair style. 3: This is the final concept art, and the sketch that was used to model Zoë in the 3D world. This is one of several outfits that Zoë will wear in the game.
4: Zoë in 3D. This is the model used in the game. The animators now have to create the bone rig in order to animate the model. Then they have to create her movements, so that she'll be able to walk, run, jump and climb. 5: Here's Zoë after the animator has created a running animation. In the left image you can see the rig (the 3D skeleton). To the right, you can see the finished model in 3D.
6: This is a high resolution 3D-model of Zoë, which is used mostly for posters, websites, movies and other promotional material.
1: Sketches of The Journey Man Inn, a cozy pub in Marcuria, which is a major city in Arcadia. This scene was originally used in The Longest Journey, and will make a reappearance in Dreamfall. Material from the first game was brought back and re-worked.
2: Remember this scene? It's the first scene from Dreamfall that got revealed after its announcement. This second concept sketch is more detailed with snow, icicles and so on. It's detailed enough for a modeller to start building the scene in 3D.
3: These are 3D wireframes of the scene, showing the contours of how the Inn will appear in the game.
4: This is the final version. Notice all the details that have been made to animate the world: people walking around, the snow, smoke from the chimneys, the sky, etc.
For more on Dreamfall, consult our game overview page. As a bonus, here's some giant versions of the concept art:

If there is anything The important to Weight make The Weight Loss Medication Xenical Works By Quizlet him leave Loss himself, then I am Xenical Medication afraid that Works only the Son of Twilight will By be left Thinking Quizlet of this, Frios narrowed his eyes and sneered at the corner of his mouth.
Donald J Horowitz: One of the things we – we got onto some issues versus the specifics of your job. We went from some of the things that you’ve been actually working on in your current job versus when, when we were talking earlier about your being Chief of chambers and, and, you know, moving things along.
DJH: So let me come back to that and I, I suspect we’re going to, somewhere soon, have to, have to take a more permanent break for today and then perhaps we’ll come back another time and, you know, finish up some of the things that would be good to talk about.
DJH: In, in the process, again going back between 2000 and 2005, apparently things began to move along. You got more resources. You got some additional judges and so forth, and the judges were ad litem. Can you just tell us quickly what that means?
Well, ad litem judges were essentially the, had the same qualifications as the permanent judges under the statute but the idea was we didn’t want to pay them pensions. We didn’t want to pay them all the benefits. That would have made it a very expensive option. Part of the way it was sold to the General Assembly, our funding body, was that this is going to be a sort of quick easy option.
We’ll bring them in for a maximum of three years to do specific trials, often much shorter than three years, and then we’ll send them out. Unfortunately, they were, as a result of another whole series of processes in which we lost judges from long running trials, we were, we – the judges passed a law allowing su-, substitute judges for judges who were already sitting in the middle of trials.
And so some of the ad litem judges were put into long running trials. For example, Judge Bossa when she arrived, was put into the Butare trial; one of the Olympic record breaking trials of all time, and you know, long ago I think exceeded her three-year limit and is you know sitting (__).

Homeowners always want the best type of everything for their property. A robust roof, attractive siding, an HVAC system that works efficiently, and windows that are visually appealing as well as functional. A functional window keeps UV rays out, insulates the home properly, and helps resists the harshest of weather conditions.
Since so much is expected from windows, what is their average life expectancy, and can you do anything to make them last as long as possible?
The Life Expectancy of Windows
Not all windows are created the same. Some are double-paned, some are hurricane resistant, some are made with fiberglass, while others are insulated. Therefore, their lifespan will depend on their materials. That being said, if you know what type of windows you have in your home, you can get an accurate range for their life expectancy.
Double-paned windows can last up to 20 years.
Aluminum windows can last up to 30 years.
Fiberglass windows can last up to 40 years.
Now, “up to X years” means there’s a possibility the windows might not last that entire time. This is where proper maintenance comes in. There are several things you can do to ensure that they last toward the higher end of that range, such as:
Install a Humidistat
This is especially important in a state as humid as Texas. A clear indication that there’s too much humidity inside your home is seeing condensation in your window panes. This is a device that allows you to regulate indoor humidity by adjusting it according to seasons. Not only will this be beneficial to keep your windows in top shape, it’ll also reduce the likelihood of additional issues brought on by humid conditions, such as mold.
Wash Them Regularly
Have you ever tried to open a window or sliding door, only to discover that it’s jammed? It’s frustrating and also preventable. These jams are caused by dust and dirt buildup. Clean the tracks with a dry brush, then pressure wash the panes.
Provide Maintenance
How do you provide maintenance to windows other than washing them? Glad you asked! You can do so by inspecting them closely to see if you notice any cracks on the glass, or calk that has broken off around the frames.

If you want to save time and money, go to Allied Siding and Windows first! We worked with a big box company for 5 months and they were never able to deliver and install the product we had requested. Allied had it done in two weeks, at a cheaper price and the house looks great!

Connecting a Coby Bluetooth headset to your HTC EVO smartphone frees up your hands for doing other business-related tasks. For example, a Bluetooth headset makes it easier to write or type notes during a business call at your desk, or to even take a call while you're walking through an airport or driving to meet with business partners. Connecting a Coby Bluetooth headset to the HTC EVO smartphone can be done in a matter of minutes.
Step 1
Press the "Home" button on the HTC EVO to return to the device's home screen.
Step 2
Tap "Menu," select "Settings" and choose "Wireless & Networks."
Step 3
Place a check mark in the context box next to Bluetooth to enable Bluetooth functionality on the device.
Step 4
Hold down the "Power" button on the Coby Bluetooth headset until the device emits two beeps and the blue and red status lights take turns flashing. The headset is now in Pairing mode.
Step 5
Position the Coby Bluetooth headset and the HTC EVO smartphone so the two devices are within a few feet of each other, ensuring a strong signal.
Step 6
Tap "Bluetooth Settings" in the Bluetooth screen on your EVO smartphone.
Step 7
Tap "Scan for Devices." A list of Bluetooth devices detected by your smartphone will appear.
Step 8
Tap the name of your Coby Bluetooth headset. If there are multiple devices detected and you're unsure which one is the headset, consult the user's guide for your specific headset model, which will tell you what name will be associated with your headset. If no passcode is required, the headset automatically will be paired with your device. However, if you're prompted for a passcode, you'll need to enter it before the devices can be paired. If you don't know the passcode, it will be listed in the user's guide that came with your headset.

The Roxy Hotel Tribeca, New York, USA | The Hotel Guru
203 rooms from £242 per night
"The SoHo Grand's cooler little sister - the ultimate in downtown chic. The in-house cinema, live music and suave roof top terrace all attract a fashionista crowd. Sleek, mid-century modern rooms, fitted with the latest technology. The relaxing Aire Ancient Baths are located just one block away."
Sister hotel to the SoHo Grand two blocks away. Some people say the Tribeca Grand is more hip, more laid back, cooler. Maybe. But both hotels emit the same kind of vibe. Music industry and fashion people come, setting the tone. A small cinema in-house is often used for pre-release screenings. And there is a lot of live music in the public rooms. The Grand's fine atrium is the scene for a fabulous New Year's Eve party. Parts of the hotel can be noisy (top floor near the lift machinery or lower floors near the bars) but the staff are well-trained and eager to help you enjoy your stay. This is downtown Manhattan as it ought to be.
Pets can stay with no additional charge
Luxurious downtown chic
Great for friends to let their hair down and party
Located on the border of SoHo and TriBeCa, two of downtown's most affluent residential neighborhoods
Aire Ancient Baths, located just one block from the hotel
Noise from the lively bar downstairs
A happening nightlife destination
Valet parking is available. For 24 hours cost is $55 for cars and $65 for SUVS
The TriBeCa area's past lives as farmland and commercial & industrial districts gave way to struggling yet visionary artists who sought its large expanses of space for studios in the 70s and 80s. Since that time, the neighbourhood has become an oasis-like, exclusive residential area whose expensive lofts draw New York City's wealthiest citizens. Downtown luminaries flock to TriBeCa's cobblestone streets for its air of selectivity, its retail, dining, & nightlife options, and ideal location near some of downtown's other popular neighbourhoods. TriBeCa is home to classic upscale restaurants like Nobu, Mr Chow, Bouley, and Chanterelle, resident favourites such as Bubby's and The Odeon, and fashion's finest brands, like Issey Miyake and Stephen Alan. The neighbourhood also has roots in independent filmmaking, hosting the Tribeca Film Festival each year in its multiple indie movie theatres.
When Tribeca Grand Hotel opened in May 2000, the hotel immediately distinguished itself from all of the other hotels in Manhattan. Its sleekly modern guest rooms, seductive Church Lounge, impeccable guest service, and sought-after location make Tribeca Grand the ultimate accommodation for a variety of pursuits. From romantic weekend getaways & holidays in New York to business trips & conferences, Tribeca Grand shows guests how to experience New York City like a true insider.

Another sheet of iron used as an exterior wall panel at the hut at Birds Nest, Werrikimbe National Park. I assume that the text "War Finish" would assist in dating the date of manufacture. It also advises "Not For Curving".

301 redirect vs. 404 - SolveThisError.com
I am working on an extremely large site that contains tons of their own content and around 30,000 individual websites for their clients on the domain. For example a client's site would live here: www.site.com/client_name
However, many clients do not renew. My question is should we 301 these expired pages to www.site.com or do a 404 for all of the expired ones
From an SEO perspective I do not want to tell the engines to replace www.site.com's "legacy" and PR 7 with www.site.com/client's PR 0.

Removing 301 redirection from a spam site?
I have two domains [www.abc.com & www.abc.co.uk], earlier I have applied 301 redirect to www.abc.co.uk which will be redirected to www.abc.com. After the Google panda update, my www.abc.com got affected due to one of the SEO company. Here my concern is if I remove 301 redirection between these two sites and start working for www.abc.co.uk with fresh content. Is it good way to do SEO for this www.abc.co.uk. Please guide me. --
Multiple 301 Redirects ... .htaccess REDUX
Very confused here... trying not to be penalized by Google. I have a main domain to which I want to point about 10 other different domain names. This other domains will not host content, it's just for advertising purposes. The other domains are registered at GoDaddy.com. I have web space for the main domain on another host. of the other domains are pointing to the correct host. I've setup my .htaccess file as such for each additional domain: Code: RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^otherdomain.com [NC] RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.otherdomain.com/$1 [L,R=301] RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www.otherdomain.com [NC] RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.otherdomain.com/$1 [L,R=301] ...but I get nothing. My host told me I need to setup add-on domains for each but from what I've read, "parked" domains sounds more like it. But I thought just adding the above to my .htaccess would work. So what am I missing to get this to redirect & not be dissed by Google Appreciate any help.
301 redirect : IIS vs. .Net
Please forgive my ignorance, as I'm not a programmer, but I spoke with a colleague, and he mentioned that it is not necessary to create a redirect at the IIS level (i.e. creating a record for website.com, then redirecting it to www.website.com). It can apparently be done at the 'application begin request level' by entering code into the global.asax file located in the site. My question is, will this method still register with search engines as a proper redirect Will the site benefit or be penalized This is for a website coded purely in .Net and hosted through IIS.
301 Redirect and Backlinks
If I do a redirect from www.1234.com to www.5678.com should I continue to acquire backlinkds to 1234 or 5678 My current 1234 site has great ranking but its time to change the domain to adjust to the industry. What is the best way to maintain and exceed my current rankings with backlinking, article submission, etc I am changing to a SEO friendly WordPress theme so hopefully any negative will be compensated by the positive new theme Thank you
301 redirect for IIS 6.0 Server (non-www to www)
I am using HTML on an IIS 6.0 server. I need URL redirect option Site Header Information: Current Date and Time: 2006-04-24T02:35:18-0700 Server Response: http://www.example.com HTTP Status Code: HTTP/1.1 200 OK Content-Length: 19845 Content-Type: text/html Content-Location: http://www.example.com/index.html Last-Modified: Mon, 24 Apr 2006 08:53:50 GMT Accept-Ranges: bytes ETag: "d6451a9b7c67c61:1091a" Server: Microsoft-IIS/6.0 X-Powered-By: ASP.NET Date: Mon, 24 Apr 2006 09:35:10 GMT Connection: close I need non-www to www pernamnent redirect For example: http://example.com to http://www.example.com Please help me and give me a solution Senthil
I'm curious if anyone has any experience & feedback regarding back to back 301 redirection and if there's any unfavorable effects with major search engines. The exact situation as this would be applied: A forum/blog with rewritten urls (example.com/this-is-our-canonical-url.html), links to pages generated as base 62 urls (xmpl .cm/tabc). Bots/users click the base 62 tiny url, which redirects to example.com/page.phpid=12345, which itself then 301s to the deed example.com/this-is-our-canonical-url.html The tiny url service used here is custom for zero API call (no remote connections to slow main site/server) so the service itself does not know of the final url, just knows the actual script location and sends a 301 with the translated value. So, the tiny url requested runs through 2 301s before the user/bot finally gets to render a page. Does anyone have any experience/advice to share on chained 301s
Help Need with 301 Redirects
I have redirected an old domain to a new domain using a 301 redirect. However, I have noticed an increase in the number of 404 errors due to old pages not being found. Eg. olddomain.com/oldpage/ This produces a 404 error on the new domain as I don't have a page or folder named 'oldpage'. What should I do
Need 301 Redirect advice for entire domain
I'm hoping to get some advice from those who have a lot of experience with redirecting entire domains to another. We currently have a domain that is focused on a niche market of products. It does very well for 1 particular category which happens to be a keyword that is contained in the domain name. I am sure that the keyword rich domain name is a factor in the rankings (Though a lot of it is probably due to links having the same keyword). What we are considering is expanding to a very diverse product line, at which point the domain name we currently use will not be appropriate any more. I'd like to create a new domain with a better generalized name, move all content to this domain, and then 301 redirect the old domain over. My understanding is that if done correctly, most of the link power will transfer to the new domain. But what will be the impact of switching the actual domain name itself Should I expect the rankings to drop for that one niche product category since the phrase will not be included in the domain name any longer
301 Redirect for whole site?
Hi Client of ours has just launched a new website but it is still in beta. Therefore when you go to the website you are brought to clientsite.com/beta We will be in beta for a bit longer - a couple of months - but what happens to our ranking when we are no longer in beta and we simply have the domain clientsite.com Assuming we put in a 301 redirect for all links to what was in the site before - although this is a directory database driven site so there could be/will be tens of thousands... - are we going to lose all of the organic SEO love from before Will we need to start from scratch with the search engines
2 companies near me just merged, and they built a new website to replace BOTH of their old websites. Which means it is time for 301 redirects! Each company has 3 separate domains. Why I don't know. But all 6 total domains now need to redirect toward ONE new canonical domain. The question: Is there SEO danger in 301 redirecting SIX distinct domains toward one That is, is it possible that the search engines would penalize the new site for having TOO MANY incoming 301 redirects I do not know the answer. Anyone have thoughts or experience
301 Redirect or Canonical URL tag?
I'd like to know how YOU handle this situation. I am trying to avoid duplicate content by pointing all of these URLs: www.mysite.com www.mysite.com/index.html http://mysite.com/index.html toward this canonical URL: http://mysite.com I am doing this now for the www.mysite.com versions by using a 301 redirect. For http://mysite.com/index.html, I am using a 301 redirect PLUS putting the Canonical URL tag in my site's .htaccess file. My question: what is the best practice here Am I overkilling by using both 301 and the Canonical tag to fix the http://mysite.com/index.html What do you do in these situations
301 Redirect a directory to a new site
I've got two domains (little-persia.com and love-rugs.com) little-persia.com is an up and running site and love-rugs I'm in the process of making. love-rugs is on a directory in the little-persia root directory as it is shared hosting. How do I 301 redirect /love-rugs to www.love-rugs.com I've tried Redirect PERMANENT /love-rugs/ http://www.love-rugs.com but it didn't do anything. I've currently got: Quote: AddType x-mapp-php5 .php AddHandler x-mapp-php5 .php RewriteEngine On RewriteBase / RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.little-persia\.com [NC] RewriteRule ^(.*) http://www.little-persia.com/$1 [L,R=301] In the .htaccess if that helps with the proper code
301 Redirect --- How to
If I will redirect domain.com/abc to domain.com/xyz, will all urls like domain.com/abc/1.html to domain.com/xyz/1.html and the page rank and other attributes will retain
, I have googled for this info and searched around here on the forums with no answers... Problem: whenever I add a / to the end of the url on all my internal pages it doesn't seem to display any pictures or css. How would I use a redirect to fix this problem
Multiple Domain Names - 301 redirect
Hi Guys I am new to this form, so please forgive me if i have posted this in the wrong section or someone else already has posted a similar query. I plan to host a local property maintenance website on a domain, for example, hampshire-pm.co.uk However, I dont think that this domain name will be very SEO-compliant as any search engine will not know what the "pm" bit stands for. Therefore, I was thinking about purchasing a few other similar but very descriptive domain names as well like: hampshire-property-maintenance.co.uk and using 301 redirects to point to the main site. I understand that most of you might say that the second domain hampshire-property-maintenance.co.uk is probably more suited to effective SEO as the domain actually contains keywords relative to the website/business, but I think it is too long to use everyday on business cards, sign written vans etc, so i would prefer to use the shorter hampshire-pm.co.uk domain for the website. Therefore, would it be an option to host the website on the hampshire-pm.co.uk domain, and use a 301 redirect to direct the second more seo-friendly domain name hampshire-property-maintenance.co.uk to the main site Would this help with SEO if someone googled "property maintenance in Hampshire" If 301 redirects assist with SEO, then I would quite like to build up a portfolio of other property maintenance domains to all point to the one website, but is this a viable option to help expose and rank my website, or is it all a waste of time Do 301 redirects really work seo-wise My main worry would be if hampshire-pm.co.uk does not rank very well as no search engine understands what the "pm" bit is all about. Therefore, I want to try and find some work arounds, and make sure that the search engines know hampshire-pm.co.uk is a property maintenance website in hampshire etc. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Kind regards, , Quote: Originally Posted by DarrenHaye a good thoughtful first post. Redirecting just domain names will not help with your main sites rankings. Google knows what your site is about from it's content.. it won't matter you have the PM in your domain name. Just think amazon.. bing.. ebay etc do just fine and their domain names have no relation to what they are. many thanks for your quick reply. I understand what you have suggested. I have wrote good meaningful content (whilst dropping in some valid keywords etc throughout). I just wasn't sure if the domain name itself (i.e. a lack of the words "property" and "maintenance") would be the downfall of the website and it's rankings in Google et al.
Using 301 redirect for new domain
I just acquired a new domain that contains the precise search terms that I am competing for... much more relevant than my existing domain's component words. Now, to use the new domain, I think the the most effective option is for me to back up my site, rehost on the new domain, and do a wildcard 301 redirect from the old domain to the new. However, I'm curious. What if instead I do a 301 redirect from the new domain to the old, and then start building up links to the new domain I know it's usually done the other way around, but how will Google and other search engines view that Will my old domain start appearing more relevant for my search terms
My current host is The Planet. I am switching to GoDaddy and using a nice WordPress theme for my new site. I have strong rankings with my current site and want to know the proper order to redirect my stuff... Should I do a 301 redirect in my current cPanel before I do anything else After that, can I point my current server to GoDaddy and build my site using the slugs in the post to reflect the redirect Do I absolutely need htaccess files and do I need to embed anything in my new WordPress theme.php.
Site deindexed after 301 redirect
I recently moved my site to a new domain. I read up about modrewrite and 301 redirects extensively, and thought I had everything figured out. However, after the redirect my site is completely gone from the google index, and webmaster tools shows 0 pages indexed (375,000 indexed on the old domain, the site is a large vbulletin forum). Here were the goals in the redirect: move mw3forum.com to cod247.com/forum redirect cod247.com homepage to cod247.com/forum redirect non-www to www The code.. .htaccess file on old site: Code: RewriteEngine On RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.cod247.com/forum/$1 [R=301,L] .htaccess file on new site (root directory): Code: RewriteEngine On RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.cod247\.com$ RewriteRule (.*) http://www.cod247.com/$1 [R=301,L] RewriteRule ^(/)$ forum [L] Functionally, everything works correctly as described in the goals section above. Also, I used some 301 checker tests like Redirect Checker which all showed correct results. However, as mentioned both sites are now gone from the google index. Please help, I can't have this site disappear into oblivion like I've had when I botched 301 redirects in the past! What did I mess up , Quote: Originally Posted by DarrenHaye I'm not so hot on technical aspects of SEO so I probably shouldn't try and help you with this.. But I can tell you the simple thing that putting this into google .. site:cod247.com returns about 60,000 results, so you are still are in the index.. Is traffic down. Hmmm, google webmaster tools shows 0 pages indexed (showed 375,000 on the old domain before the switch) and a search for just "cod247.com" itself returns no results from the actual domain. I'm not sure which to believe, heh. To the last question, yes, traffic is way down.
i am trying to redirect a entire site to a new domain, i tried using a basoc 301 redirect which works fine for the index page but for any deep linked pages it will append the new url with the structure of the old URL. I simply want to move one site to another with a 301 redirect, including all sub pages! Anyone

Mahrez also led the Algerian national team to glory in the 2019 African Cup of Nations tournament in Egypt, scoring three goals including a late winner against Nigeria in the semifinals.
2021 might not be turning to be a good year for Liverpool and some of its players, but the sheer ferociousness that the Reds swept the whole of England in 2020 should be enough to include Sadio Mane in the discussion for African Football of the Year.
Mane, who won the 2019 edition of the African Footballer of the Year award, scored 18 goals and provided 10 assists alongside, as Liverpool secured its first-ever Premier League crown but 19th English league title overall. The Senegalese winger also has 14 goal contributions (seven goals and seven assists) to his name this season despite missing some games due to injury.

Conway says Bernie's 'electability' is no match for Trump's 'electricity' - Loroly Blog
100 thoughts on "Conway says Bernie's 'electability' is no match for Trump's 'electricity'"
What a purely despicable person. Why do the Russians love Fox News?
Bernie now has the momentum! We want Medicare for All saving between $5 and $20 trillion. We want corrupting money out of our politics. We want full renewables and off polluting fossil fuels. We want strong financial regulations and fair taxes for all. We want new infrastructure. Let's do this together Bernie!
Bernie is going too win, you thought the rank and file and establishment hated Trump, whoa look out they really hate someone who might actually try to bring back an actual middle class, dummies who don't see the massive income inequality are just stupid. Hilary was a horrible person/candidate but Bernie will be good for the middle class.
dow down? BUY!!!!!!!!!
I love BLR makes it easy to understand what these politicians have to say.
The electricity she is talking about is just static from his phoney hairdo.
Yeah..Socialism!? Eahh …and Bernie caims Russia is helping Trump..why wouldnt they help the socialist aka comunist…projection is what shrinks call it
How in hell can an old swindling socialist win the presidency in the United States of America?
Bernie bro checking in. Hey Kelly, say hi to your husband for me. LOL. Bernie 2020!!!!!!
Kellyanne is such an intelligent woman. Trump is very lucky to have her in his corner. 🇺🇸❤️TRUMP/PENCE 2020🇺🇸❤️
harris wears a ton of eye make up
Please not forget Trumps stupidity.
Ms. Kelly Ann Conway you are absolutely right! President Trump has reached out to many people and he is the first president that kept his promises and acted on it successfully. I want to say thank you to all the staff members who pray and do their job in the best way sincerely for America , and make sure of her security , and the American people

PRESIDENT DONALD J TRUMP will WIN ONCE AGAIN TO BECOME COMMANDER AND CHIEF IN THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. VICE PRESIDENT ALONG HIS SIDE THIS WILL DEFINITELY AND ABSOLUTELY COME TRUE.
Thank you Ms. Harris for reporting the news the way it should be reported in an excellent manner .
We were warned about this in 1995. A lung disease will also break out in humans through the guilt of China, where bioweapons are being researched and a carelessness is releasing pathogens.
Of course it's better electricity, which sounds threatening. Poor thing , this title,must have really caught the writer off gaurd
Last time I looked Nevada was ONE state! There is a long, long way to go Bernie! By the time the election rolls around you will have failed to get his Medical plans; free University; etc explained to those that will be paying the bills. Praising Castro will not win you votes……thought you were smarter than that! The whole world is paying the price for the spread of this virus……it will affect everyones' bottom line. Not much one can do about that for now!
Idiots in the comments,voting against their best interests as usual, bunch of hillbillies.
The bot's are thick tonight.
If you guys aren't worried about Bernie your out of your minds. If Bernie gets the dem nom you can forget about it. It's a wrap. I voted for trump in 16 and I'm voting Bernie 2020. Trump lost me with his environmental policies. Trump is keeping the status quo. Wake up guys, trump is not good for us

This people they don't knowing Bernie what he's all about this Spanish people they don't know about comunism socialism this what he's all about good bye bye freedom you want to have another Venezuela in a America how stupid you want to be America is a capitalist country that s why is the best evonomy in the world number one thanks to trump
The one scenario where democrats won't cheat with illegal vote schemes is if Bernie wins the nomination. I think that the DNC literally hates Bernie. He's not really a Democrat. If you listen to him, he is a combination of socialist and a communist. Despite MSM lying about the president being racist etc., I am positive that all republican voters, half the moderate democrat voters and most of the independent voters are happy with the policies of this administration. If that weren't true, both the black and Latino polls wouldn't be consistently rising in favor of President Trump. The main focus of 2020 absolutely must be TAKING BACK THE HOUSE.
Draining the swamp hinges on it.
Kellyanne had that response ready to go.
bernie sanders is payback to pelosi schiff and nadler.
I truly hope we're allowed to see a straight up fight between Trump and Bernie. We'll see who's really got the electricity, baby.
they keep saying socialist tell the truth just a rotten communist.
they keep bringing up coronavirus won't they say what it really is'' Captain trip also money don't do you no good if you're dead better get right with GOD and I say this to all if you have not seen the movie The Stand I advise you to watch it.
I'm more concerned that someone will have to follow Bernie around with a Crash Cart…
"you want your views to become policy you need to put your name on the ballot and become [POTUS]" … yes.
There should be billboards of Bernie singing shirtless in the Soviet Union back in 1988!
Isn't that the same thing people said about trump's electability?
Bernie is a disgrace. He's a fake! Wake up.
Bernie has a snowball's chance in Hell of beating Trump
Honestly, who believes anything that comes out Kellyanne Conway's mouth; she worse than trump and Sarah Sanders when it comes to telling the truth! Jack
Kelly and Conway is an amazing woman got nothing but love for her
You won't be winning in my State of Texas you fool.
BURNIE does mot represent most of America ok and the fake news won't report it
Trump is pushing for Bernie to be his final opponent. He is his complete opposite.
Bernie Sanders is absolutely worthless. Never held any kind of job until he turned 53 and was elected mayor. He lived off of four different women(got one pregnant out of wedlock) and has NO clue as to what real work is, what it really takes to put food on the table and his nothing more than a draft dodging prick. Case closed.
poor poor old gaga Bernie Sanders, who never heard that socialism miserably faied wherever it was
Russia wants tRump or Bernie to win. It's a shame we even have to care who Russia wants. tRump likes Putin's support. That's the problem. tRump first and USA last.
Russia goal is to divide and corrupt the USA. Looks like it is working.
Linda Dunman says:
The economy being good is because of what Obama did during his candidacy
Wow..no Bernie bots here!? I'm shocked LOL
Someone is going to vote from a rooftop if Comrade Bernie gets elected. His communist ideas are going to spark a violent civil war. I know I personally would rather die with a rifle in my hand than live under the boot of communism.
Running for President of a country that fought communism for a half century including two wars, Korea and Vietnam in which America dirt napped nearly 100,000 servicemen fighting Asian Bernie Sanders'.
Comrade Bernie: "REVOLUTION!"
President Trump: "Don't worry, I've got this."
Ghost of JFK: "I know."
Secret Service Agent: "Mr. President, who are you talking to sir?"
Why do the YouTube captions keep turning back on for this channel? How do I turn this off?
Gatosaurus Indignadus says:
I don't think we should underestimate Sanders Democrats made that mistake on 2015. Bernie has a bunch of people fired up. We can keep calling him a socialist, a commie Cuba lover and that's not going to affect him. They love him regardless. Sound familiar?
We have to all go vote this november. He is a dangerous man and again we MUST NOT underestimate him.
Bernie can win a contested nomination process, but a national election with an opposition candidate will be the rejection of his slim leftist loud mouth supporters. Thanks for the majority Bernie.
Lmao look at the crowd of people behind Sanders not a full time job there. Wow that group of supporters have stood with their handsout for decades
Burnie can't win Texas at all… we know how he is.. Mexicans for Trump 2020
Kelly will be first women President
I can't wait for the Debates. Trump is going to go to work on millionaire communist and Moscow honeymooner Red Bernie and it's going to be brutal and funny
Don't believe in this because he is democratic socialist
Trump has no electricity. He has a base of poorly educated people who he can get over on. It's the same scams he has had since the 80s. I am just happy I am not one of these poor fools that use the social programs he is going to cut. Republicans are the ones who use food stamps, medicare, Medicaid, ect ect the most. All they are doing is making things worse for themselves. It's the same reasons all their states are broke. They elect people who take everything from them, and then they are too stupid to put it together.
It's sad these kid's were suckered by the colleges and loan providers for many degrees that they're aren't jobs for. It's also sad they're not smart enough to figure out that taxing everyone else to pay for their mistakes won't fix the problem.
Bert en Ernie makes Bernie
THE DEMOCRATS ARE SOCIALISTS! HAHAHA!
GOOD FOR THEIR DEMONS WICKEDNESS! HAHAHAHA!
Bolchevic Bernie Sanders, the very best worst candidate against Trump
there's Kellyanne again, one of the best employees Trump has
By the size of the crowd at the rally alone can speak for itself.
He may get the Dem nod in Texas, but he won't win against Trump.
we're still delivering all kinds of packages that come from China
LOLOL you Trumptards are gonna lose yer gunz!! LOL
Mike Kirchhevel says:
if you work penalized if you dont praised
Kelly keep the Botox straight outta milfville
I think the Democratic party is nothing but the devil in descize, and if they win the election we are in Big big trouble
Is this woman half gray? Those big eyes are scary looking. Anyway, if the economy goes into the tank, Bernie can definitely be elected…his supporters are highly motivated! Don't underestimate this movement Bernie has created.
Our president is not all about politics, his concern is for the American people.
Captain Mike K says:
Bernie talks about bread lines like it is a beautiful giving away empty carbs to those at the bottom level of wealth and class like Mother Theresa! He will eat well.
Bernie has my vote…so does my entire community and county in Texas
Bernie Sanders is the best the democrats can do?
I remember when democrats were sane.
America will never vote for a Communist.
Yea the Dims scream Russia, Russia, Russia for 3 yrs, now they want to elect a effing full blown Communist. Go figure?
Bernie Sanders, the next president of the U.S.A.
RIGHT ON KELLYANN, THE ARROGANCE OF THESE LIBERALS R OUT OF CONTROL, BUT WE WILL GIVE THEM ANOTHER OPPORTUNITY TO SHOUT TO THE SKIES IN NOVEMBER LIKE FRUIT FLIES, WHEN THE SHOCK OF ANOTHER TRUMP VICTORY OBLITERATES THEM LOL.
No wonder people who can not ever own anything and work in poverty are ready to turn to socialism.They are mad!!
Not allowing a big portion of workers to share has come ho.e to rooste
If we get by with out electing Bernie,both parties had better start treating their voters better enough said!!
Wow Hispanics IN Las Vegas and Texas really do want to be like Venezuela. How many there are illegal?
No way Bernie that's a joke. Pitiful
Communist slash socialist maniac kook castro lover Bernie Slanders help drain his corrupted swamp for good Trump 2020 & Jr 24.
It scares the crap out of me that there are that many people in this country who want a socialist country. Where were their parents when they were growing up? Something needs to happen with these radical universities, they don't even teach useful curriculum anymore its just pure radical leftwing propaganda and for some reason this generation of young adults seem to have 0 critical thinking capabilities, they all want free everything and to live their lives glued to some type of screen. Sanders would be the end of America.
Tim Annear says:
Barbra Doll speaking…. total rubbish.
Deonna De Losh /Kamradt says:
No way! Trump 2020.
Bernie is totally delusional if he thinks he can take TEXAS!
This man looks like he's one foot in the grave. He really should stop.
Bernie gets elected…you can expect a civil war. These Socialists are godless, intolerant, violent, hate filled bigots. Making all the same promises Hugo Chavez and Fidel Castro made..

“If you don’t want him, you sho oughta. Heah you is wid de onliest organ in town, amongst colored folks, in yo’ parlor. Got a house bought and paid for and sixty acres uh land right on de big road and . . . Lawd have mussy! Dat’s de very prong all us black women gits hung on. Dis love!” (23).
The practice of arranged marriage is a tactic used by the well-off to maintain economic and social roles — marriage can combine wealth and power. In this case, the intent of arranged marriage is quite the opposite: Nanny finds Janie a husband in order to protect her from abuse. “Sixty acres” being the promise of reparations post-slavery is a symbolic attempt to demarcate social class even within an already oppressed group — yet another tactic adopted from the powerful.
Author MDAPosted on November 21, 2016 Categories UncategorizedTags Class, Co-opt, love, marriage, power2 Comments on Their Eyes Were Watching God.
“Finally out of Nanny’s talk and her own conjectures she made a sort of comfort for herself. Yes, she would love Logan after they were married. She could see no way for it to come about, but Nanny and the old folks had said it, so it must be so. Husbands and wives always loved each other, and that was what marriage meant. It was just so. Janie felt glad of the thought, for then it wouldn’t seem so destructive and mouldy. She wouldn’t be lonely anymore.”
This passage exemplifies Janie’s innocence and naivety. She blindly believes Nanny’s rigid views about marriage and love. In order to alleviate her fears, Janie is able to convince herself that love and marriage are synonymous.
“Here Nanny had taken the biggest thing God ever made, the horizon-for no matter how far a person can go the horizon is still way beyond you- and pinched it in to such a little bit of a thing that she could tie it about her granddaughter’s neck tight enough to choke her.”
Nanny had taken life and love in all it’s grandeur and manipulated it to suit her own wishes for what she wanted Janie’s life to be like and in the process, suffocated her.

“…Saw him hesitate; consider; which interested her, as Mr. Dalloway always interested her, for what was he thinking, she wondered, about Peter Walsh?
That Peter Walsh had been in love with Clarissa; that he would go back directly after lunch and find Clarissa; that he would tell her in so many words, that he loved her. Yes, he would say that.”
In this scene, Mr. Whitbread, Lady Bruton and Mr. Dalloway are dining together and Lady Bruton had just mentioned that Peter Walsh is back in town. Lady Bruton’s secretary, Milly Brush, is her thinking about what Mr. Dalloway must be analyzing in his mind about Peter Walsh. What could he be thinking about the man that used/still may love his wife? Actually, the passage intrigued my in many ways because of its reflection of both Milly Brush as a character and also how she perceives Mr. Dalloway. As the reader we see that Mrs. Dalloway is actually unhappy and insecure about her marriage to Richard, however, here Milly is portraying Mr. Dalloway’s full love and affection for his wife in a form of jealousy and assurance in claiming her as his own in love and in a strange way that his love has emerged only in the light of another man’s love for Clarissa. Milly Brush seems to assume a character of Mr. Dalloway that expresses love and care, however as the reader I see the opposite. Her assumption of his thoughts shows to me that her idea of Richard is that of jealousy and insecurity. If she did not think that Richard was insecure about his marriage, would she be so sure in her assumption of his thoughts being that of seeking reassurance of his love with his wife?

In this passage, Sally Seton is thinking of Peter thinking of Clarissa. She assumes that his love for Clarissa still exists even though he has intentions to marry someone else. Sally is making conclusions regarding Peter’s feelings for Clarissa based on her close relationship with him. On one hand, by having this meta-representation of Peter readers are given the chance to further get to know his character. Woolf utilizes Sally’s close relationship with Peter to portray his more private thoughts, that is his longing and love for Clarissa. On the other hand, there is a question of validity because it is not Peter who is thinking about Clarissa but Sally who thinks Peter is thinking about Clarissa. This meta-representation also calls for readers to be critical as it leaves out Peter’s point of view.

“–Peter always in love, always in love with the wrong woman? What’s your love? she might say to him. And she knew his answer; how it is the most important thing in the world and no woman possibly understood it.”
The first question makes a number of assumptions. First, it assumes that Peter is the source of love — he is never the recipient of mutual feelings. Second, it assumes that Peter is in love with the “wrong” woman, which implies bad judgement. Third, it assumes Clarissa is the “wrong” woman — in suggesting this, she is attempting to hide her love for Peter on the basis of a pre-existing relationship with Richard. While not his answer, the assumptions above are reflected in the question posed to Peter.
In response to the question “What’s your love?” Clarissa supposes that Peter would answer: “it is the most important thing in the world and no woman possibly understood it.” This, like the question, assumes a number of things: First, it assumes that Peter, for his love, is irrational. In Clarissa’s projected answer, there is an absurd tone; how could love be the most important thing in the world. Second, it assumes, in what is an empirical falsehood, that Peter is the sole human who is obsessed with the condition of being in love. In the novel, many characters are driven by love: Rezia and Clarissa, most notably. Third, Clarissa implants herself into the answer. In her attempt to reject Peter’s love, she uses the language of “no woman” to resolve the tension she is experiencing; she is searching for someone who says ‘you may not love Peter.’

Necessary data and information are neither adequate nor well furnished The study was conducted by one person there is chance of having error in any stage of data collection, data entry, data organizing, data presentation, interpretation of result, etc. 3- Chapter Two OVERVIEW OF THE ORGANIZATION: BIMAN AIRLINES -4- 2. 1 Corporate Profile: Biman Bangladesh Airlines (Bengali: ) is the flag carrier airline of Bangladesh.
Its main hub is at Shahjalal International Airport in Dhaka, and also operates flights from Shah Amanat International Airport in Chittagong, earning revenue from the connecting service to Osmani International Airport in Sylhet. Biman's operations are assigned the IATA airline code BG and the ICAO airline code BBC, while its call sings is BANGLADESH. The carrier provides international passenger and cargo service to Asia and Europe, as well as major domestic routes.It has air service agreements with 42 countries, but flies to only 18. The airline was wholly owned and managed by the government of Bangladesh until 23 July 2007, when it was transformed into the country's largest public limited company by the Caretaker Government of Bangladesh. The airline's headquarters, Balaka Bhaban, is located in Kurmitola, Dhaka.
Created in February 1972, Biman enjoyed an internal monopoly in the Bangladesh aviation industry until 1996. Presently Biman has two 737-800, four DC10-30, three A310-300 and three F28-4000 aircraft in its fleet.Biman is in the process of procuring more new generation aircraft such as Boeing 777-300ER, 787-8 and 737-800 for its fleet. Biman operated flights to 29 international destinations as far away as New York City to the west and Tokyo to the east. The airline has suffered heavy financial losses, and has a reputation for poor service because of regular flight cancellations and delays caused by its ageing fleet.
Annual Hajj flights, transporting non-resident Bangladeshi workers and migrants, and the activities of its subsidiaries, form an important part of the carrier's business.Under Skytrax's five-star rating systems, Biman merits two stars. The carrier is currently facing competition from local private airlines & some international carriers, which offer greater reliability and service standards, which is experiencing an 8% annual growth rate, owing to a large number of non-resident Bangladeshis. -5- Since becoming a public limited company, the airline has reduced staff and begun to modernize its fleet. Biman has made a deal with Boeing for 10 new aircraft, along with options for 10 more.
The airline's Reservation and Departure Control System and other communication systems are fully computerized. Biman is now striving to make the airline more attractive to its valued passengers by fixing priority on providing more comfort and maintaining schedule regularity. Biman does entire maintenance work on its F-28 aircraft. Biman is also doing C-check, Dcheck on DC10-30 and A310-300 in its hangar complex at Dhaka. Checks, repair and maintenance of one DC10-30, one wide bodied Boeing and two F-28 aircraft can be done simultaneously there.In addition to its own aircraft, Biman's ground-handling unit also provides support to Singapore Airlines, Thai Airways, Malaysia Airlines, Qatar Airways, Emirates, Kuwait Airways, Oman Air, Saudia, Gulf Air, PIA, Indian Airlines, Dragon Air, Druk Air, etc.
at Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport, Dhaka. Biman Flight Catering Center (BFCC) has the capacity of producing 8500 meals a day and is providing cuisine not only to Biman but also to Saudia, Etihad, Malaysia Airlines, Thai Airways, Emirates, Dragon Air and China Southern Airlines.Biman Bangladesh Airlines Training Center (BATC) has been training its ground, flight service and technical personnel to meet the growing needs of Biman's manpower,. The center has also been turned into a seat of training and technical seminars for local travel agents and some foreign airlines. Biman Poultry Complex, a subsidiary of Biman was formed in 1976 and was put into operation in November 1980 to create a profit earning concern to augment the cash flow of Biman. The complex is situated 40 km north-west away from Dhaka City over 75 acres of land at Ganakbari, Savar, Dhaka.

The airline was initially called Air Bangladesh International but was soon changed to its current name. -7- In modern Bengali, the word biman refers to "aero plane", originating from the Sanskrit word vimana, a name given to a flying machine mentioned in ancient Vedic literature the logo, painted on the tail, is a stylized white stork inside a red circle.The initial livery was a dark blue line extending across the aircraft along the windows and covering the tail section. In 2010, Biman went through a rebranding exercise and unveiled a new logo and livery which was applied to its first leased Boeing 777 aircraft. However, following elections later that year, Biman was forced to revert back to the original branding as the new brand image was not endorsed by the incoming government. The bolaka has also given its name to the Biman headquarters, the Balaka Bhaban.
On 4 February 1972, Biman started its domestic service on the Dhaka–Chittagong, Dhaka– Jessore and Dhaka–Sylhet routes with a World War II vintage Douglas Dakota and Douglas DC-3, both gifts from the Bangladesh Air Force. On 4 March 1972, Biman started its international operations with a weekly flight to London using a Boeing 707 chartered from British Caledonian. The short haul fleet was supplemented by a Fokker F27 from India on 3 March 1972; the aircraft was employed on a daily scheduled flight between Kolkata and Dhaka on 28 April 1972. In 1983, three Douglas DC-10s joined the fleet and the airline started to phase out the Boeing 707s.The flight network expanded further to include Baghdad (1983), Paris (1984) and Bahrain (1986).
On 4 August 1984, Biman faced its worst accident when a Fokker F27 flying in from Chittagong crashed near Dhaka, killing all 49 on board, including Captain Kaniz Fatema Roksana, the airline's first female pilot. The long haul fleet was then supplemented by the purchase of two new Airbus A310s in 1996, followed by the addition of two more in 2000, from Singapore Airlines and Air Jamaica, and another in 2003. In the 2005–06 fiscal year, Biman carried 1. 15 million passengers, a growth of 70% over the previous decade.With the rise of private domestic carriers in Bangladesh, however, Biman's market share for domestic passengers dropped by 35% over the previous ten years' average. -8- 2.
3 Vision To establish Biman Bangladesh Airlines Limited in the aviation market as a world-class airline. 2. 4 Mission To provide safe, reliable, efficient and economical air transport services and to satisfy customers' expectations while earning sustainable profit and continuing to be a caring employer. 2. 5 Objectives To provide and develop safe, efficient, adequate, economical and properly coordinated air transport services, internal as well as international.

5 Cargo Service Biman also operates a cargo service using the cargo holds of its passenger aircraft to ship freight to international destinations. It has established Cargo Village at Shahjalal International Airport where the cargo is packaged and labeled before being loaded onto its aircraft. While the air cargo industry in Bangladesh grew by 16. % in the fiscal year 2003–04, Biman's cargo operations remained stagnant when private operators such as Bismillah Airlines, Best Aviation and Air Bangladesh produced a 108% growth from the previous year. The private operators increased their share of the cargo market by 10.
6% and were responsible for handling 24% of the total 99,000 tonnes of cargo at the expense of both Biman and foreign airlines which saw a reduction in their shares by 4. 6% and 6. 0% respectively. Foreign airlines handled 47% of the total cargo with Biman taking on the remaining 29%. Cargo rates have been improved on many sectors.
The bulk carrier baggages ex-Hong Kong carried by Calcutta-oriented passengers and the huge house-hold console shipments from London destined for Sylhet poured huge revenue in Biman's exchequer. 3. 6 Direct Service Dac-Lhr-Dac:Biman has introduced dedicated direct flights on DAC-LHR-DAC route since March 2010. It may also be mentioned that there is no direct flights from DAC-LHR-DAC by other Airlines. 3. 7 Network: Biman had 22 destinations in its network including 02 domestic destinations.
Due to continuous losses, operation on some destinations was suspended. This initiative decreased losses. With the introduction of additional aircraft, some of the suspended routes have been revived.

Biman strengthened its position in UK market, as this non-stop service has been proved very popular to the Bangladeshi ethnic community.
Operation of B-77 to Singapore and kuala Lumpur for 3 months in fiscal year 2009-10, before utilizing it on London and Rome sectors, helped Biman carry huge labour, tourist and business traffic from different points, specially from Kathmandu. 3. 13 London- Dubai-Sylhet Direct Flight:In meeting the long demand of ethnic Bangladeshi passengers, the routing of one of the Sylhet bound flights as London-Dubai-Sylhet direct with Airbus aircraft with higher fares have earned Biman good revenue. 3. 14 Abacus NMC Bangladesh: Biman through an innovative approach started GD marketing in Bangladesh- Biman and Abacus formed a National Marketing Company (NMC) for Bangladesh on 09 July, 2002.

3. 15 Migration of Reservation and SITATEX Services: Biman used Dumb Terminals for its reservation services for the last two decades. In addition, older version of SITAEX played an important role for messaging services. To upgrade the services, Biman entered into New Generation Network and replaced Dumb Terminals and older PCs for entire network. For doing so, we introduced IP-VPN (Internet Protocol- Virtual Private Network) for network side and replaced desktops by branded PCs.
This migration results to access high speed data transfer.At present, it possesses a world standard reservation and SITATEX services. -19- 3. 16 Airlogica (Data Mining Technology): Working in partnership with GDS companies is very important.

By the end of 2008-09, all Biman stations have been brought under BSP except Rome due to local market scenario.BSP is a system designated to facilitate and simplify the selling reporting and remitting procedures of IATA Accredited Passenger Sales Agents, as well as to improve financial control and cash flow for BSP airlines. A truly worldwide system, at the close to 2008, there were 88 BSPs covering 160 countries and territories serving 400 airlines, while gross sales processed amounted to USD 239 billion.
BSP simplifies total distributions burdens of the airlines as agents issue one Sales Report and remit one amount to a central point, airlines receive one settlement covering all agents and most importantly agents' sales are reported electronically. 3. 8 Cargo Accounts Settlements Systems (CASS): Biman has also been among the pioneering airlines to introduce Cargo Accounts Settlement Systems (CASS), designed to simplify the billing and settlement of accounts between airlines and freight forwarders. It operates through CASS link, an advanced global web-enabled ebilling solution. CASS yields a twofold solution as it replaces: a) Airlines' traditional paper based invoicing, b) Agents' manual controlling of those invoices, while all benefit from the enhanced financial control and improved cash flow as the CASS rate of success in collecting funds is virtually 100%.
-20- 3. 19 Passenger Intelligence Services (PaxIS):At the beginning of 2008 Biman took the initiative of implementing PaxIS, a powerful and essential market intelligence tool for air travel analysis, which was finally implemented during May 2009. PaxIS a product developed by IATA Business Intelligence Services, is the most comprehensive airline passenger market intelligence database available today, with more accurate, reliable and affordable data captured through IATA Billing & Settlement Plan (BSP). PaxIS reports issued ticket information from more than 400 airlines carriers covering 82 BSP offices. The product is presently being extensively used for Network planning; Fleet planning, Marketing planning and Agency monitoring and performance analysis. 3.
20 Ground Handling:Biman- since its inception has been providing this very important and specialized service to all the airlines operating from Dhaka and Chittagong, both for passengers and cargo. In addition to handling its own flights, this strategic unit has been a source of substantial revenue. During the year Tk. 194. 97 crore was earned from ground handling services.
During the last year the figure was Tk. 179 crore. This is to mention here that during the year revenue from Cargo handling services to other airlines was Tk. 59. 86 crore and from cargo warehouse demurrage charges was Tk. 45.
73 crore. A great change has come over in the Aviation Industry after 9/11. Diversified security requirements in passenger and baggage services have been imposed. IATA has also implemented global standards in the Aviation Industry.As such hundreds of standards have been set to which the Airlines are required to comply with to ensure safe and secured services.
Biman naturally had to struggle to cope with this critical business environment with its limited resources. Biman's ground handling services has been suffering due to inadequacy of Ground Services Equipments (GSE) and man power. Procurements of GSE is now in the pipeline. Additional man power has also been inducted. Taking into view the current business scenario the benchmarks have been formulated to raise the standard of service and all out efforts are being made to achieve the goal. -21- 3.
21 Market Liberalization/New Competition:Pressure from the private sector and the recognition of Biman's difficulties in effectively serving the aviation market, the CAAB (civil Aviation Authority of Bangladesh ) has begin to liberalize the aviation market in Bangladesh and to provide authority for new airlines to operate both domestically and internationally. From the foreign carrier side Biman is facing tough competition in almost all sectors. Especially the mega carriers Saudia, Emirates, Gulf, Etihad etc are moving very fast to occupy the market share of middle east bound passengers. Whereas the Cathay Pacific, Dragon Air, Singapore Airlines, Thai Airways, Malaysian Airlines are the great hurdle for the market of ASEAN bound passengers.Even for the regional sectors the Jet Airways, Indian Airlines, Air India, King Fisher are also becoming big factors to push Biman out of race. According to government policy some domestic carriers are also spreading their wings internationally. As a result the local market is rolling in triangle motion. The promising private local carriers' areGMG Airlines: GMG Airlines is a fully owned subsidiary of the GMG Group of companies and commenced schedule service in April 1998. Now it operates a fleet of 3 MD-82, 2Bombardier DASH8 Q100 and 2 Bombardier DASH 8 Q2OO aircraft.

87% of total operating revenue of the airline. Cargo and Express-Baggage contributed 8. 22% and 1. 27% respectively. It may be mentioned here that due to capacity constraints, Biman could not fully exploit the cargo market opportunity.Biman has brought cargo under automation, and other modern marketing mechanism has also been set to optimize revenue with the planned fleet enhancement.
Due to aged aircraft and fleet constraints even with leased aircraft during the 2nd half of the air, Biman failed to achieve satisfactory level of schedule regularly during the period under review. With a view to Fleet modernization, Biman has signed agreement in April & May 2008 with Boeing for procurement of 10 new generation fuel-efficient aircraft. Other strategies have been taken to overcome existing fleet constraint, efficiency enhancement and image building.

Among these subsidiaries are Biman Flight Catering Centre, Biman Engineering Hangar, Bangladesh Airline Training Centre, and the Biman Poultry Complex.To turn these commercial ventures independently profitable the engineering division of Biman Bangladesh has been separated from the commercial division in 2004. 5. 1 Biman Fight Catering Center (BFCC): Biman flight Catering Centre (BFCC) a wholly owned independent unit of Biman Bangladesh Airlines was setup in 1989. BFCC provides Biman's in-flight meals and is one of Biman's most profitable operations, regularly supplying food to Ethihad Airways. Air Afriqiyah and Cathay Pacific with casual orders from other airlines operating to Bangladesh.
Saudi Arabian Airlines and China Eastern has started uplift of catering items and services form BFCC during the financial year 2009-10. 5. 2 Biman Poultry Complex (BPC):The BFCC consumes 90% of the eggs and chicken from the Biman Poultry Complex (BPC), another profit-making subsidiary of Biman formed in 1976 and put into operation in November 1980 to rearing poultry at farms in Dhaka. Bird flu was detected at one of the farms in March 2007 which resulted in many livestock being culled. This was the first incident of bird flu in Bangladesh.
Poultry industry in Bangladesh was partly pioneered by the Biman subsidiary in the mid-1970s, though the first poultry in Bangladesh was a private venture named Eggs and Hens established in 1964. The medium sized breeder set up by BPC eventually led to NGOs and the government coming forward to develop the sector in early 1990. 94 are employed at BFCC and 90 in Biman Poultry Complex at Savar, 40 km NorthWest of Dhaka City, on 75 acres (300,000 m2) of land including 5 acres (20,000 m2) poultry shed, 1-acre (4,000 m2) residential area and 69 acres (280,000 m2) of agricultural land. During FY 2009-10, it supplied 3, 64,005 kilograms of boiler chicken. The complex is planning again for production of chicken from summer 2010 after long suffering of a setback when Bird Flu was detected in March 2007. A large number of livestock had to be being culled.
Poultry industry in Bangladesh was partly pioneered by this unit. -37- 5. 3 Bangladesh Airlines Training Centre (BATC): Bangladesh Airlines Training Centre (BATC) began its journey as the Ground Training School in the Engineering Hangar at the old Airport in 1972 immediately after the war of Liberation and subsequently moved to Biman's own building at Frmgate.In 1984 the Biman Management took advantage of an ICAO/UNDP offer to setup an apprentice training school and acquired land from CAAB to start the project at Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport. The UNDP/ICAO assistance to setup Apprentice Training School was much better utilized to actually build a proper and full-fledged training centre for the national carrier. This is BATC today.
BATC offers all ground training to Biman's own personnel and personnel of other airlines. It also offers training to travel and cargo agents in a regular basis. Its main objectives are skill development of personnel for development and generating services. Its main mission is to train personnel requisite to the needs of the irline, skill development of personnel for indepth qualitative improvement of the airline service, attitudinal realignment of airline personnel for developing proper service-oriented mentally and management development for efficiency and long-term effectiveness. BATC provides training in the faculty of Operation Technical, Management Development, Avionics Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, Customer Services, and Marketing .
At present. 34 faculty members are serving the BATC. In 2009-10, BATC conducted 625 courses for 4,164 participants. BATC is currently working towards European Aviation Safety Agency- 147(EASA-147) certification for the training centre as a pre-requisite to set EASA-145 certification for Biman's maintenance facility. -38- 5. 4 Ethics:Biman Bangladesh Airlines showed its profound commitment to fundamental values of integrity, transparency and accountability by signing the partnering against corruption initiative (PACI).
It puts Biman amongst the rank of enterprises committed to AntiCorruption doctrines reflecting the fact that corruption and bribery have been recognized as corrosive to economic progress: 5. 5 Biman's Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR): Biman's social responsibility is embedded in its mission and vision. In a disaster-prone country like Bangladesh here had been continuous flow of relief material. Biman on case to case basis, for such humanitarian relief gives exemption of handling and storage charge.Biman being sponsor of Biman Crocket Club is also contributing for the development of second most favorite sports of the country. During 2009 Biman Cricket Team won the runner up in the Premier division Cricket League of Bangladesh.
Biman Chess Team became champion in the National Chess competition and also Biman Badminton Team won the championship title in the National Badminton Tournament. 5. 6 Contribution to the National Economy: As a national flag carrier and the largest airlines service provider of the country, Biman has an important role in exporting manpower in the world market, through which it contributes in foreign exchange earnings.During the FY 2009-10, the company collected on behalf of the Government Tk. 48,460,189 as income tax, Tk. 12,424,582 as VAT and Tk.
9,27,864,900 as Domestic & foreign Air Travel Tax and deposited the same into the government treasury. During the period, Tk. 2, 39,930,155 as salary tax was also deposited into the government treasury. It is also mention here that the tax deducted at source by different banks against Interest Income in the FY 2009-10 amounts to Tk. 8,396,021.
-39- Chapter Six FINDINGS & RECOMMENDATIONS -40- 6. 1 Findings of the Study: In the decision making process, Biman cannot working as independently because of having Ministerial influences.Sometimes emergency situation cannot meet immediately for complex bureaucratic system. Most of the executive directors of Biman are not involve in aviation industry. They have wanted of experienced and required skilled to run the Biman successfully and profitably. The available aircrafts of Biman are old-fashioned and are not fuel-efficient.
These are causing high maintenance cost. Biman is obliged, by legislation, to priorities national interest over commercial ones, and not to be a purely commercial airliner. The government is exercising the power as given by the ordinance in its activities. In this context, the government is utilizing Biman to render services for the nation, e. g. perating government VVIP flights, relief flights and hajj flight, and carrying perishable items at cheaper rates. The Board is not accountable to a higher authority because the Minister of Aviation, who is the designated chief of the organization, is the Chairman of the Board himself. Therefore, the Board is neither directly accountable to any other body, nor is it under obligation to report to any other authority for its activities and performance. As a consequence of being a state-owned corporation, Biman has suffered from being politicized in many aspects. It has been politicized such as- operating domestic flights with wide bodied aircraft, political intervention in recruitment and promotions, decision-making under political influence.Corruption in different sectors of Biman is another significant barrier that is making it difficult for the organization to break away from loss making ways. Incidents of corruption are evident in purchase and leasing of aircraft, store and purchase of spare parts, in the tender process and in ticketing and reconfirmation. Its Man-Equipment Ratio (MER) at present is 1:367, while the international acceptable standard ratio is 1:200. Compared to other airlines, the number of Biman staff is fairly high but their remuneration is fairly low. Biman does not recruit any staff directly (i. e. from external qualified candidates) in officer level. -41- The Biman does not maintain it flight Schedule on timely. It often delay flight schedule without showing any excusable reasons.The customer service quality of Biman is very poor because of lacking customization in providing service according to the level of customers. 6. 2 Recommendations: It is not unexpected to have problems in any organization. There must be problems to operate an organization. But there must be remedies to follow. The following recommendations are done on the basis of priority can be suggested to solve the above mentioned problems: Biman should be decontrolled from the government interference in decision making. Biman should operate by Biman people without any interference from the Ministry. It should purchase or lease the required number of new generation fuel-efficient aircrafts so that it can safely meet the demand of prospective customers.It should make a phased fleet renewal plan. It should abide by the current business methodologies as used in world-class airlines to make it successful and profitable. Biman should recruit staff with required qualification directly at officer level. Recruitment, transfer, and promotion on political consideration must be stopped. The promotion system of Biman should make on the basis of both seniority and performance in lieu of conventionally seniority basis. Delay analysis should be undertaken as a routine process and necessary steps should be taken to maintain the schedule on timely. Modern cost effective inventory control system should be introduced.Leasing and purchase process of aircraft should be made transparent. Punitive actions against corrupt staff of the in and out station of Biman must be taken. Biman's existing procurement rules should be appropriately amended so that Biman can take its own business decisions. Biman's existing procurement rules should be appropriately amended so that Biman can take its own business decisions. Biman should consult with expert people of reputed airlines companies to make it profitable. -42- Conclusion: The Biman Bangladesh Airlines Ltd is the only national flag carrier airline in Bangladesh. It is first Airline Company which is providing low price air services to the people of our country.It has been converted into public limited in the hope of advancing as profitable organization in 2007 by the caretaker government. But it is still unable to make it as profitable company. The subsidiaries of Biman such as BFCC and BPC are performing profitable unit. Biman Bangladesh airline is 100% owned by the Bangladesh government. Bangladesh Biman Corporation is a commercial venture of the Ministry of Civil Aviation. The chief of this government-owned organization is by designation the Minister of the Aviation Ministry. This corporation is operated through a Board of Directors. Usually, this Board of Directors is headed by a Chairman who is supposed to be accountable to a higher authority.Biman provides different types of services such as passenger service, cargo service, mail service, catering, and training for the Biman staff. Biman has two categories of passenger services, provided through domestic and international flights that it operates. Biman Bangladesh Airlines was formed on 4 January 1972 with 2500 skilled and unskilled manpower without any capital and aircraft. Biman was established as of a corporation on 27 October 1972 with a view to ensuring better operation and development of air transport service. Over the last decades, Biman faced a number of problems. Information on mismanagement and corruption in the organization has trickled out in recent years.Such incidents include mismanagement in ticket confirmation and reconfirmation, poor passenger service, corruption in purchasing spare parts, alleged corruption on aircraft lease, lack of planning with regard to scheduling, fleet planning, and human resource management and so on. Although Biman is one of the first choices for fly to many customers, in many aspects it lags behind. Therefore, the following recommendations are made to be considered for future improvement and development of sound operation system within Biman Bangladesh Airlines. Through the overall performance evaluation of Biman Bangladesh Airlines, it indicates less satisfactory performance in airlines companies in Bangladesh. -43-Annexure-01 Biman Bangladesh Airlines Limited Details of Comprehensive Income Particulars BPC Income Operating revenue Non-operating revenue Total income Expenses Operating expenses Interest expense Non-operating expenses Total expenses Net profit/loss before tax Income tax Net profit/loss after tax Accumulated profit/loss brought forwarded Prior year adjustments Accumulated profit/loss transferred to balance sheet 77187090 25760916 102948006 80080858 –80080858 22867148 -42703442 -42703442 6570590 BFCC 644114892 52350606 696465801 453035061 –453035061 243430740 -464893046 1547563 466440609 709871349 BBA Amount in Tk.

Last year, I wrote the article Why I Celebrate My Marriage Monthly to express the importance I felt in taking notice of the joy in my relationship for more than just once a year. As of April 2019, I have officially reached an entire year of legal matrimony and have collected a few valuable nuggets of wisdom along the way. It’s amazing how much a couple can be put through the test over the course of 365 days (give or take). Every day is a blend of challenge, celebration, and the downright mundane. However, even as humdrum as some days seems to be, there is always a take away.
Here are some things I’ve taken so far:
Nothing Prepares You For Marriage
Before saying, “I Do”, I did some homework. I wanted to know what to expect while being committed to someone for the rest of my life. I read articles, spoke to married couples and even chatted with divorcees for tips on what to avoid. I did my best to keep a positive attitude about everything and to immediately address any conflict head on as means of balance and resolution. My husband and I lived together for years before becoming engaged so I thought I had all the experience I needed to be prepared. I was wrong.
It did not matter how many years we were together prior to our marriage, things changed after the ceremony. There was a mental shift that took place when we realized that were proclaiming our union to everyone in such an official way. This turned up the heat when conflicts occurred and elevated our expectation for one another. Nothing prepared me for the life-threatening scares and hospital visits, the deeply heated debates, or the overwhelming joy I feel when he looks into my eyes and calls me “wife” with a big smile. So although it doesn’t hurt to do your research, just know that you’ll never really know how things will change.
There is No Such Thing as Equal
Fairness has always been a priority for me. I grew up in various environments – sometimes in a house full of family or just with my mother. Being an only child, I valued my space and belongings and respected that of others. When Marko and I moved in together, I made great efforts to make sure there was a “his and hers”. As a middle child, he was more indifferent which would infuriate me! He’d say, “There is no such thing as fair, babe. Things aren’t equal ” (while eating the last piece of my dessert portion). It took me forever to understand where he was coming from but I finally did.
It is no mystery that relationships thrive when there is give and take. The misconception, however, is that this exchange is split down the middle. The truth is that there is always sacrifice happening and usually someone is sacrificing more than the other at some point. Ideally, both parties will have their chance to be on the receiving end of this but the way it looks is likely to be very different than what you may expect and from what others are doing. While I was concerned about my husband drinking 90% of the juice in the fridge, he was also the main breadwinner at the time working overtime to pay the majority of the bills (so what I only get a cup of juice sometimes, water has less carbs anyway). To be clear, this has nothing to do with gender roles as our relationship dynamic is pretty unconventional in some ways. The point is that as life goes on together, priorities flex and sweating the small stuff only makes things more challenging. We tend to get more out of partnerships when we enjoy exchanging thoughtfully and wholeheartedly and focus less on quantity.L
Tune Out the Third Parties
Almost immediately after our wedding, Marko and I were bombarded with questions about when we were having children. Thankfully, he and I were on the same page of keeping that conversation and decision between him and me but it can be tough to block out, especially when the mean-well inquirers are family. We quickly realized that we would not allow ourselves to be pressured into choices that we were not ready for and would also be mindful about how much we share when we were going through things.
Advice from a select few can be insightful but it is important to have clear boundaries. You never fully know what others’ intentions are and what they are capable of with too much personal information about another’s relationship. This pretty much can be applied across the board, even for non-married couples.
Like any other transition, marriage takes willingness and adaptability. Although individual authenticity is greatly important, so is cooperation and compromise. So tell me, what is the biggest lesson you learned or challenge you faced in your first year of marriage?
Focus for Entering the New Year
The final full moon of the year has passed now and if you were anything like me, you went through a series of various emotions. Depending on the level of contentment with your relationships, you might have felt the need to block people out and spend quality time with yourself. Maybe you chose to be a bit exclusive while only including certain people in your energetic space – fitting for moon in Cancer.
Releasing toxic behaviors and people would have been appropriate but today’s reading might suggest focusing more closely on growing the healthy connections we do have or may gain this coming year as we go forward:
This reading has great significance for me now and may gain more relevance later on. Does this reading resonate with you?
Hard Truth with a Lime
My husband and I are “hashers”, my term for people who speak the truth about issues as they recognize them. Being upfront about what we see as reality generally serves us in that there is not a lot of tip-toeing around problems. Instead, we lay it all out on the table as soon as possible so we can resolve it as soon as possible. The conundrum with serving the truth straight up is that it is often taken as offense to emotional lightweights …and sometimes it’s our turn to be the lightweights.
One evening after a long day of work preceded by a long few weeks of balancing all the responsibilities of adult-ing with my goals and dreams, I went on an unexpected rant about lacking the energy or time for all the things I want to do in a day. My husband, with the best of intentions, made a remark that not only hurt my feelings but, for a moment, killed all my dreams and triggered a bunch of old wounds that suddenly bubbled to the surface in a rush. At first, I was furious, then I was sad. After a few hours, I recalled his exact words and realized he wasn’t entirely wrong. We later hashed it out in a conversation in which I got to express my displeasure with his word choice and appreciation of his honesty. He got to apologize and learned a lesson in the consequences of what and how one says things.
At some point in the day, or during our week, or in life we are not ready for hard truths without a chaser. There are moments I need it on the rocks (tough love) or prefer it in a hard cocktail with a lime – not quite sugar-coated but still easier to swallow. However, when we are too busy “keeping it 100”, we may miss the important cues of the receiver not being at the mental or emotional level required to toss back what your serving, regardless of how honest it is. This is where communication often breaks down.
There are some pretty common examples of how, in reference to the Chappelle Show, “keeping it real goes wrong.” Maybe we make a joke about someone else’s poor decision-making which can cause embarrassment and lead to anger and mistrust. Perhaps, we give unsolicited advice when the receiver is only looking for a supportive ear. Maybe the truth would have been more easily accepted had our word choice been less harsh. Of course, there are plenty of circumstances in which it’s up to the receiver to be mature and ready enough to handle the message in spite of the delivery. Also, the intention of the hasher is another important factor which will hopefully be an intuitive guide whilst unveiling the listeners’ proverbial eyes.
Compassion is key whenever we are interacting with almost everyone. Sometimes situations call for toughness in the name of genuine concern but other times it calls for a milder touch. When we are truly aware, we are more likely to tell the difference, be wise in our approach and maybe someone will grant us the same consideration when we are on the other end.
So tell me …when was a time you went a bit too far with dishing out the truth? Or, when was the last time you were on the receiving end of an inconsiderate truth-teller? Please share!
Namaste.
Let Your “Lawrences” Go
If you are an avid watcher of the HBO show “Insecure” like I am, you have probably heard about the “Bring Back Lawrence” Petition. As it turns out, fans really took to the character Lawrence, ex-boyfriend of the main character Issa Dee, played by actor Jay Ellis. He is a staple in the first two seasons but after hearing he would not be in the third, some of the audience decided to take action. And honestly, after very little thought, for me, it made perfect sense that Lawrence would not be present at this point in the story.
If you have not seen the show, beware of upcoming spoilers. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!
The second season of Insecure was riddled with chaos as Issa and Lawrence attempted to recover from a dysfunctional relationship that eventually lead to Issa’s infidelity in season one. After many mistakes on both parts, they eventually ended up facing each other and having the “grown-up” talk they should have had in the first place. The apologies were well-given and heartfelt, so much so that fans expressed their desperation for the couple to reconcile. However, while it seemed as though all that needed to be said was said and all was forgiven, they parted ways and Issa went on to begin a new chapter in her life.
It seems obvious to me that when friendship is no longer an option, this is the very best way for mature adults to move on, but apparently many others did not seem to have the same sentiment. This got me to thinking, “Is this why there are so many screwed up relationships these days?” My husband and I had a long and heated debated about holding on to things sparked by our disagreement on whether Lawrence should stay and it’s amazing how much deeper of an topic this turned out to be. I discuss it in more in the video below from my YouTube channel.
I can think of so many circumstances in which issues could have been resolved if only the people involved had the courage or the know-how to let go. To be fair, this sort of behavior is often encouraged in today’s techno-world in which it’s pretty easy to stalk profiles and and read into videos and text messages. Hell, “It’s Complicated” is a common enough theme among relationships for Facebook to even recognize it as an actual status option. But keep in mind, it is an option.
But what if we learned to truly move on and cut people off? This does not have to be negative although often times it is difficult. But, would it not be worth it to be free? Why continue to chance staying stuck on the same chapter when you can simply turn the page? Or in this case, enter a new “season”. You never know, you may just make room for for an unexpected return at a better time.

Online dating when to exchange phone numbers | USA
Posted by / 04-Jun-2018 21:12
Only later, once essentially vetted through passive or not-so-passive observation of someone's timeline, do phone numbers get exchanged. David Marcus, who runs Facebook's Messaging app, predicted the death of the phone number as one of five trends to expect in 2016, and the forecast rings true now. " Honestly, I can't remember the last time I swapped digits with someone on first meeting.Research has found that people actually do feel more connected thanks to social media.Eighty-three percent of teens say social media makes them feel more connected to their friends' lives, 70 percent with their friends' feelings.Being active on social media means you're a lot more likely to interact with your friends more frequently, too.
Nobody answers a cellphone that blinks an unfamiliar phone number." Perhaps it's no surprise, then, that many find social media preferable for getting to know more people faster (however superficial that knowledge may be).
It is important to remember, however, that what we see online is a curated version of someone's existence.

When I to use my laptop computer 10+ hours per week pretending to be always a middle-aged guy on a dating internet site, my very own dating life is circling the drain. I truly don’t see a necessity any longer to place myself on the market; to visit a club or even a restaurant or somewhere else on the planet searching for love.

Why do i must find one partner that does that after i could have 70 different males tell me personally that on the internet?

Move to Taiwan: After the victory of the Chinese Communist forces in , the family escaped to Taiwan where Foo spent her adolescence and college years.
From Library Science to Chef: Foo moved to the United States in the 1960s to pursue graduate studies in library science in Pennsylvania.After marrying her Chinese -born husband E-Hsin, she joined his family’s restaurant business in Philadelphia.
First Launch: Soon after she launched a restaurant in the family’s business, and after that she and her husband started their own restaurant named after Suisanna Foo.
A Librarian in the Kitchen? Foo may be the only Master Chef who was trained in library science, but this may not be as unusual as it first seems: Modern librarians are experts in information management, so this is a core competency that may be applied in many fields.
Culinary Influences: Foo’s early culinary influences were derived from her parents, kn in who were knowledgeable about the cuisines of several Chinese regions. She learnedr learned Hunan cuisine and Northern Chinese cuisine studying with family members who had those skills.
Culinary Institute: Later Foo would master French and Continental cuisine at the Culinary Institute of America.
Unique Role and Culinary Style: For more than 30 years, Foo and her husband have operated upscale Chinese restaurants, mostly in the greater Philadelphia area. Her culinary style has revolutionized the concepts of people in North America about Asian food.
During this time Foo has become an acclaimed figure in the world of fine Chiense and Asian food and Fusion cooking. She was one of only two women and probably the only Chinese woman to run a first-class Asian kitchen in North America.
Foo pioneered in the adaptation of French techniques and international ingredients to the most sophisticated Chinese dishes, with remarkable results.
Sophisticated Cuisine: Diners have come to expect sophisticated Chinese food, often served with a touch of French fusion influence. Her dishes use the freshest ingredients from around the world – all served impeccably in elegant surroundings.
Innovation: Foo innovated by doing things like flavoring Chinese dishes with homemade stocks and reduced sauces. She used nontraditional ingredients —
Tortillas and Scallions: Foo makes a version of Scallion Pancakes, basically a take on street food, but using Tortillas. But she insists on using minced Pork Fat, which she says impart the traditional taste to this dish.
Cookbooks: Foo has authored two acclaimed cookbooks. She has been honored with prestigious awards from Food and Wine and received James Beard awards for excellence in cuisine.
Foo’s innovative and pioneering approach and communication skills have earned her a place in the ranks of the Master Chefs and she has introduced people in North America to the highest concepts of Chinese cuisine. After operating and closing several restaurants, Foo opened a new one, Suga, with a focus on Chinese Fusion elements, at the age of 72. working in partnereship with her son.
The very purpose of Lord Buddha to be born into this world was to demonstrate how to behave as a human being. There is so much to learn from him to lead a life which is value-creating and full of ‘absolute’ happiness.

Stephanie and Michael Whyte entered our competition earlier this month to be our Resident Gin Bloggers, and we loved their entry so much we decided to feature it for our Gin of the Month: November! Here it is:
Just by looking at the Pickering’s Navy Strength Bottle you already know it’s going to be a gin full of character. The bottle comes with its own mini bearskin hat, complete with a tiny chain. This is to mark the collaboration with Pickering's and the Edinburgh Military Tattoo. Pickering's is a quirky brand, based in Summerhall, Edinburgh. They are very innovative when it comes to their brand vision. Using distinctive red and white colouring, they have thought of everything including a motorbike converted into a gin bar! Launching in 2013, they were the first distillery in the Capital for over 150 years. In fact the gin is distilled in the former kennels of the former Royal Dick Vet School, we highly recommend the tour for the fascinating look at many unconventional but wonderful distilling, bottling and production processes.
The company is surprisingly small and it is nice to know that each bottle of gin’s distinct wax seal has been individually placed on your bottle: a delightful rustic and personal touch! A paper from a family relative dated July 1947 forms the basis of the gin’s secret recipe, kept for quite a few years before becoming what it is today. This Navy strength is one of three gins they have on offer: there’s the 1947 and Original gins but we personally love this one the most. You may argue it’s 57% alcohol levels may have something to do with this, but you really get the proper essence of the gin with all the flavours.
The gin has both sweet and spicy smells to it: think cinnamon, cardamon, oranges and lemons. It smells of autumn or marmalade on toast. Although very drinkable all year round. Some may be put off by the high percentage of alcohol in this and other Navy strength gins but it’s a really smooth, almost velvety drink. With the delicate balance of those sweet and spicy flavours it can easily be enjoyed neat. It’s a beautiful warming drink and wouldn’t taste out of place in a hot toddy. Pickering's say the smoothness of the gin comes from the custom designed still they have for making it - whatever it is, it worked!
In terms of the perfect serve, Pickering's recommend Light Tonic and a slice of Lime. We preferred to bring out more of the sweet and spicy flavours and so paired the gin with a slice of juicy orange and some pink peppercorns along with a light tonic. Having an aromatic tonic would also work well to bring out the juniper which is actually quite subtle in this gin. The slightly sweet and spicy peppercorns and citrusy orange flavours are complimentary to the gin and bring out the zesty warming flavours. The merits of a stronger gin like navy strength ones are that they can withstand a tonic and are not drowned out. For those of you who are not fans of tonic, try adding a splash of Apple Juice or Ginger Beer - remembering less is more!

Let it Shine-Crystal Lighting Ideas for Your Home – Eyely
Do you love the look of crystals' Do you want to add some elegance to your home' We have just the thing you need. At Eyely, there are lots of beautiful crystal light fixtures. These can be used in any space with the right styling techniques.
There are plenty of great crystal pieces to add to your home. These range from chandeliers and pendants to floor and table lamps. You can fit them in wherever you're wanting to add a nice crystal accent.
This semi-flush mount is the perfect piece to be the center of attention in your home. It includes a combination of crystal and bronze, which makes for a beautiful display. It would look great in a hallway or above a table. Experiment to see where it works best in your home. It's an exquisite accent piece!
While this floor lamp does feature crystal, it's a bit more subtle than some of the other crystal light fixtures you may find. This makes it easier to add to a space. It has stunning bronze hardware, which looks great when paired with the crystal accents. It's an interesting take on a standard crystal chandelier.
The Scolopax Table Lamp is a similar style to the Olmec. Of course, it's designed for your table instead of your floor. The two lamps look great in the same space because of their similarities. If you purchase a table and a floor lamp of the same style, try to place them on opposite sides of the room to make everything flow better.
This is a very classic crystal pendant chandelier. It looks great as the focal point of a space. It's made to stand out. Try to keep it as the main focus in your home and don't add too many other bold pieces. You can hang this above a table or branch out and put it somewhere unexpected. This looks amazing paired with cool-toned pieces or any silver metals.
Don't be afraid to add a shiny crystal light fixture to your home! It's a great way to bring more elegance and beauty into your space. If you want to start small, begin with a table lamp. This will be a less dramatic change. From there, you can choose another one or two crystal pieces to tie everything together.
Though crystal is pretty versatile, you should consider the metal or the other parts of the light fixture. Make sure that the metal of the light fixture goes with the rest of the décor in your home. You don't want to mix and match metals very often.
Now, it's time to pick out some great crystal pieces! Get started at Eyely and find the perfect crystal light fixtures for your house.

“At this point, there are several possibilities for the track and intensity for Florence,” said NBC News meteorologist Sherri Pugh.
“We’re continuing to monitor the forecast to see how potentially weak or strong Florence will be and whether there is the possibility of landfall.”
If the NHC forecast is right, #Florence will be in notorious company early next week as one of the most powerful hurricanes to target this stretch of Southeast coastline in generations.
There’s a worldwide shortage of beach sand, since that’s the kind used in concrete. Replacing ravaged beaches is getting more expensive every year. (I wonder if it’s cost-effective to use rounded desert sand for beach replacement, even if it’s no use for concrete.)
Ocean beaches are replenished with sand dredged up from the bottom nearby and piped ashore. “Mining” desert sand and transporting to the shore is likely to be WAY too expensive to consider.

Push reel lawnmower: No gas needed Posted August 31, 2011
By admin and has 1 comment. American's love their cars and on the weekend they love those gas powered, high polluting, lawn mowers. Nothing makes more noise on a Saturday morning then a gas powered lawn mower which produces the same pollution in a hour as driving a car for 100 miles. It is estimated that gas lawn mowers produce about 5% of the air pollution in the United States. New laws put in place in 2007 for small engines should begin to reduce the amount of carbon monoxide being put into the air.
One solution in my "Green" opinion is an electric lawn mower which works great on small lawns but working with a eletrical chord can be a challenge. The new battery powered lawn mower is excellent and gets rid of that annoying plugged-in chord. But, my favorite is the push reel lawnmower which is powered by a good breakfast and some basic arm muscles. I have had mine for over 5 years and not only does it do a great job mulching and cutting my grass but I can also still hear my kids. It cuts great, sharpens itself while the blades spin and is light weight for easy pushing. It's made by a German company called Brill and I would highly recommend them. There are also other great push reel mowers sold at your local home/hardware store.
Just think of the gas, oil and air pollution saved by using a push reel lawn mower and you can still hear the bird sing while you work.
Environmental Urban chickens in your neighborhood Posted August 26, 2011
By admin and has 1 comment. Nothing beats waking up on a sunny Oregon summer day and hearing the sounds of chickens clucking and laying fresh eggs. One would think I lived in rural America but the sounds of these chickens are coming from my urban neighborhood in North Portland, Oregon. Chickens have a way of slowing us down, making us feel connected to what we eat and introducing us to what life on a farm might be like. Being able to stroll out into a small coop in your own backyard and find farm fresh eggs, which look, taste and are much better for you then store bought eggs shipped hundreds of miles, is something that brings a smile to many people's faces. Having urban chickens teaches people how to produce there own food and become a bit less dependent on the local grocery store.
People who start with one or two chickens find themselves with great compost for vegetable gardens, fruit trees and other plants. Yes, chicken poop is great for your garden compost pile and can become quite popular with your neighbors once they see the size of your garden. Unlike cat or dog poop, chicken poop is used as a fertilizer while dog and cat waste ends up in a landfill. Learning how our food reaches the kitchen table is important but is mostly lost in today's busy rush-around lifestyle. Wouldn't it be great to go back to a time when almost everyone had chickens, which in turn are much more friendly to the environment, produce amazing bright orange yokes and make great city pets. So, if your thinking about being the first on your street to have chickens as pets give it a try. My guess would be you will make new friends with the neighbors and start a chicken trend on your street. Check to see what the laws are in your hometown but more and more cities are now allowing 3-5 chickens as pets.

Environmental Need a new roof, recycle the old one. Posted August 23, 2011
By admin and has 1 comment. What happens when the roofers show up to tear off that old roof and replace it with new shingles? Most roofing companies scrape off the old shingles, shovel them into a dumpster and haul them away to very slowly rot in a landfill. Well now a local company in Portland, Oregon is making it a breeze to recycle those oil based roofing shingles.
Northwest Shingle Recyclers and Heritage Environmental Services work with local roofing companies to have a dumpster placed curbside for the shingles to be recycled. There is a network of companies nationwide affiliated with Owens Corning Roofing and Asphalt Shingle Recycling Program to make recycling roofing shingles easy. Asphalt shingles are made from 30% oil and can be melted down and used to make new asphalt for roads. So before you replace that old worn out roof on your house or business see if there is a recycling program for those oil based roofing shingles in your area.
Environmental Walk, Bike, Bus, Train but don't drive for one day Posted August 19, 2011
By admin and has 6 comments. What would gas prices be if we all took just one day a week and left the car in the driveway? How much cleaner would the air we breath be if just 10% of us for one day rode a bike to work, or took a bus or train? The answers are open to discussion but I'm confident that gas prices would be lower due to the fact supply would go up and demand down. I'm lucky to live in a great city, Portland, Oregon that has amazing public transit, hundreds of miles of bike lanes and friendly pedestrian parks which makes it easy to safely walk, bike or use public transit. But leaving the car at home once a week is something that people everywhere can try. Even if it's one day on the weekend or during the work week, why not try walking to the grocery store in your neighborhood, riding a bike to the library, the bank or trying public transit. Another fun thing is to do all your errands one day of the weekend and the other allow no driving. Plan activities for that day close to home.
Last year I was able to leave the car in the driveway for 10 straight days during the summer. Having two kids and being a stay at home parent we did almost everything on the bike. I have my bike with a tag along for my son and a bike trailer attach at the back for my daughter. On days when we needed to travel farther we jumped on the bus or took the train. Walking with both kids in a wagon is also a fun way to get around. I know this idea of not driving is hard for people in rural parts of the country but carpooling to work or school once a week would also be a great way to leave the car home for a day.
I think the US postal service is close to eliminating Saturday delivery of US mail. Just think of the savings to the environment with all those postal delivery trucks not being used on Saturdays. So give it a try. Leave the car in the driveway just once a week and soon it will be two days and maybe you can even break my 10 day record.

Environmental Portland to Seattle on Amtrak Posted August 17, 2011
By admin and has no comments yet. Seattle, Washington
I wanted to make my trip to Seattle from Portland as green as possible. I took the bus from our house to Union Station in Portland and then enjoyed the ride on Amtrak Cascades north to Seattle. Amtrak has really joined the green revolution recently with recycling bins in each train car and compostable plates and cups in the dinning car. Train travel is also better for the environment, much safer then driving and much more social since you have a chance to make new friends.
Seattle always seems to impress me more each time I visit. Recycling bins are conveniently located on almost every corner. Bars, pubs and even McDonald's have recycling and compost bins and the Seattle Mariners baseball stadium Safeco Field composted or recycled just about everything. I stayed at The HI Seattle which blew me away with it's efforts towards sustainability. They recycled everything, composted food scrapes, had energy saving bulbs and super low flow toilets. But it didn't stop there, they also recycled dead batteries, old cell phones, cameras and even old books. They encouraged water conservation, limiting electrical usage and using Seattle's great public transportation.
Seeing what both Seattle and Portland are doing to encourage recycling and making it very easy for the public is something I hope to see in other US cities soon. There is always more we can do but my friends in the Pacific Northwest seem to leading the way.

Environmental HomePlate's Sustainable Fundraiser Posted August 15, 2011
By admin and has no comments yet. My wife is on the board of directors of HomePlate, a non-profit organization providing a warm meal and support systems for homeless youth in Washington County Oregon. On Saturday August 13, 2011, HomePlate held its first annual FarmPlate fundraiser.
FarmPlate was a "Farm to Plate" fundraiser that brought local farmers and local wineries to a local orchard. FarmPlate used a donated orchard, donated local organic produce, organic meat, cheeses, beer and wine from the Willamette Valley. Food was served on washable plates and siverware. Food scraps were composted. Water was local Oregon tap water which was poured on request to eliminate wasted, pre-poured drinking water. Also all metal glass, plastic, paper and cardboard were recycled. FarmPlate was completely green, local and organic.
HomePlate offers the only drop-in center for homeless youth in Washington County. They are currently open one day a week but with the success of this fundraiser, they hope to increase services to two and three days a week. Through generous donations from over 110 guests, FarmPlate increased awareness of the issues of homeless youth in Washington County and it was done with sustainability as a focus.

Environmental Composting food scraps Posted August 11, 2011
By admin and has no comments yet. Our family has two young kids ages 5 and 3, a dog, 2 cats and a half of bag of trash a week. We recycle almost everything that is plastic, glass, cardboard and paper. We also have a great composting bin for all our food scraps. We put all vegetables, fruit, egg shells, and grass clippings into the bin pictured below. It has a great lid, no odor and with a bit of stirring every few days I have some great compost for our gardens. The best part is that all these food scraps are not going into a landfill. It is estimated that the average family in America throws away around 700 lbs of food waste into the trash each year. My hometown of Portland, Oregon will begin picking up all food scrapes including meats, dairy, breads, cooked food and even pizza boxes on October 31, of this year. This will allow Portland residents to compost all the items that can't be composted in backyard bins and reduce garbage pick up to twice a month instead of every week. Composting is easy, fun and combined with a great recycling program, households can really reduce what ends up in a landfill near you.
Environmental Wanted: More Recycling Bins Posted August 8, 2011
By admin and has no comments yet. What if we put a recycling bin next to every trash can in America? How much more plastic, glass, metal, aluminum and paper would we as a society prevent from ending up in landfills? A few weeks ago I wrote a story about how I like to pull recyclables out of trash cans in parks, stores and while playing tennis at a local community college. But what if we took the next step and we started calling or e-mailing local stores, libraries, parks departments, colleges and universities, elected officials and other community leaders to encourage more recycling bins in public spaces. I think if we had a blue recycling bin next to the trash can at our local park or gas station we would see our nationwide recycling rate increase dramatically. We will always have the people who will never use a recycling bin and will throw everything away but I think if we increase the ease of recycling we will turn more people onto doing the right thing.
The photo below was taken a few days ago at a local park near the tennis court. I found 14 plastic tennis ball containers, 12 glass bottles, 8 water bottles, 7 sport drink bottles ,5 tennis balls and 8 beer cans. These items would have had a long life in a landfill but instead are heading for new lives after being recycled. So if sticking your hands into the trash doesn't sound that much fun I say try it anyway or make those calls and send those e-mails to encourage more recycling bins in your community.
Environmental Recycling Cop on NBC's "Grimm" Posted August 4, 2011
By admin and has no comments yet. As my web site states, besides being a stay at home dad and environmental advocate, I also try to work on my "acting career" in my spare time. Yesterday I was hired to play a cop on NBC's new drama" Grimm". I lucked out and got a early morning call time and was one of the first two extras on the set to play a cop. I was used in the first scene shot in the hospital so stay tune this fall to see me wearing Portland's finest uniform.
I did help with recycling while on set for 12 hours and was happy to see the cast and crew using reusable water bottles, lots of recycling bins and real plates and silverware with lunch. I have been doing "extra work" for several years now and it's great to see the movie and television industry do more and more to be green.

LdF Tribe hires Ernst as new director for human services division - The Lakeland Times - Minocqua, Wisc.
8/22/2014 10:20:00 AMLdF Tribe hires Ernst as new director for human services division
Dr. Anthony "A.J." Ernst
The Lac du Flambeau Band of Lake Superior Chippewa Indians has announced the hiring of Dr. Anthony "AJ" Ernst as director of the tribe's Human Services Division. Dr. Ernst comes highly respected as a clinician, trainer, administrator, project manager and policy analyst.
In his new role, Dr. Ernst will oversee the tribe's human service programs, which include the Family Resource Center, Indian Child Welfare, Juvenile Justice, Food Distribution, Temporary Assistance to Needy Families and Economic Support, and the Domestic Abuse Shelter.
Dr. Ernst brings with him 25 years of substance abuse and mental health experience. He is the primary author of the state of Texas administrative codes that continue to ensure uniformity of clinical standards and workforce competencies across the state's mental health and substance abuse systems. He also served as director for Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration's (SAMHSA) Native American Center for Excellence, director of Technical Transfer for SAMHSA's Co-occurring Center for Excellence, Texas Department of Mental Health and Retardation and Texas Council on Alcohol and Drug Abuse. Dr. Ernst has extensive experience working with Native American populations, most recently with the Lac du Flambeau Tribe as a liaison for the state of Wisconsin Department of Health Services. "My role will be an extension of the incredible groundwork that has already been done within tribe. I will continue to build on the existing initiatives, and look to strengthen the tribe's human services to better serve the community," Dr. Ernst said.
"We are extremely excited to have a person with as much knowledge and experience as Dr. Ernst does," Tom Maulson, Tribal President, said.
"This acquisition will strengthen our ability to assist tribal members in getting healthy, and puts our tribe in a position to help our people become successful in all aspects of life." The tribe has implemented a number of initiatives in the last 18 months that target crime, combat substance abuse, address mental health as a co-occurring condition, and has instituted education as a way to reduce poverty and incarceration. This innovative approach uses a holistic ideology in dealing with social issues on multiple fronts.
The Lac du Flambeau Band continues to address the needs of the community through the dedication and development of resources to aid the membership in the pursuit of physical, psychological, emotional and spiritual well-being. Article Comment Submission Form

Response rate: Why it matters (and how to increase it) | GuildQuality: Customer Satisfaction Surveying for Contractors
Response rate: Why it matters (and how to increase it)
October 23rd, 2019 by
Your survey response rate is one of the most important factors to consider when administering a customer satisfaction survey. Imagine the difference in weight of opinions backed by thousands of responses vs. just a few.
When you use your survey responses within your marketing initiatives, the number of respondents becomes even more important. If the results quoted do not reflect the general sentiment of your customers, prepare for potential consequences. For example, if a prior customer doesn't believe your published reviews accurately represent the quality of your work, he or she may publish a contradictory review.
Fortunately, there are ways to ensure you capture honest and authentic customer feedback at a high response rate.
Companies and consumers live together in the age of data. Businesses all around the world rely on collecting data from their customers and the general public to improve their services or come up with new products. However, Forbes cautions companies against over-surveying. Asking clients for feedback at every point of contact can become annoying. Eventually, they may begin to ignore your surveys altogether. Instead, develop a strategy for the best triggers for a survey. Potential times include:
At a certain time of the year
At the completion of a project
Following a specific overall score
After contacting your business to resolve a major problem
Provide a Time Estimate
Few people look forward to completing surveys. They receive so many on a weekly basis, and each one takes valuable time. Telling people how long or short the surveys are can make a big difference. Otherwise, someone who opens a survey thinking it is short may leave it incomplete when it stretches on for longer than anticipated. Likewise, a survey with no time estimate may discourage a person from opening it because they believe it may take more time than it actually does. Provide an honest estimate of the completion time so that people can plan accordingly.
Make Answering Easy
Time is not the only factor affecting the ease of responding to a survey. The medium also makes a difference. If your customers primarily access your mobile website, for instance, a graphics-heavy survey may take a long time to load. Similarly, requiring people to submit a lot of information before beginning may turn them off. They may close out the survey before they even start to answer the questions. Finally, limiting the rating options to three to five answers is helpful.
Letting people know that a survey is on the way prepares them for the inevitable. You may do this at the start of the project, halfway through or when the project is almost done. To keep things uniform and ensure you never forget, it is perhaps best to rely on emails. However, informing your customers in person has its benefits as well. You can use the opportunity to address any concerns or complaints they may have that would result in a less than perfect score.
Customers don't always feel comfortable answering honestly when the company they're being surveyed about is the one doing the surveying. Using a neutral third-party service (like GuildQuality) makes it easier for your customers to share their thoughts openly, even when they know their answers will be seen by you. Plus, it saves you time and makes lets you do the work you care most about.
In order to generate useful and actionable customer feedback, you need to ask the right questions. Before designing your survey, take a moment to consider what info you actually need, or what you're actually going to use and how you're going to use it. Do you only want to know how satisfied – or unsatisfied – your customers are? Are you trying to uncover areas for improvement? Do you want to know how a particular team member is performing?
Rely on Proper Timing
Timing is everything when it comes to surveys. Forbes notes that your customers are more likely to engage with the survey if you send it soon after their experience with your company, ends. Forbes also recommends keeping a short window for accepting responses. For example, you could send the survey to your customers immediately after the cleanup of the worksite is completed and leave the link active for a week or so. Note that some people may refrain from responding right away until they take the time to really inspect the property and try out all the new additions or changes.
Use One Call-to-Action
Whenever a company sends out an email, it may seem like a great opportunity to advertise. This can make it tempting to stuff an email with extras. Resist this. Instead, focus only on the survey and make the request to answer the questions your single call to action. This not only simplifies the email but also prevents customers from distraction by other offers. If they get sidetracked, they may never circle back to the email to respond to that survey.
Are you ready to boost your survey response rate? Get started by choosing our easy-to-use survey builder at GuildQuality. When you work with us, we also reach out to your customers through various channels to increase your response rate.

One problem I’ve had with using masking tape or airbrush mask film to mask off areas of canvas when painting is that the paint bleeds under the mask. This leads to unsightly blobs and runs along the edge of the masked area, and just looks ugly.
The solution is to paint the unmasked area in the same colour as the area under the mask first. So the same colour bleeds into the same colour and seals the edge of the mask. You may need to do apply two coats of the same colour for thin paint.
You can then paint over this, and the new colour doesn’t bleed. This does build up the paint fairly high with a fairly sharp border, but that can be an interesting effect in itself, and explains what I’ve seen on lots of contemporary painting. 🙂

No. 22 Trojans Travel to Long Beach State for Midweek Tilt - University of Southern California Official Athletic Site
No. 22 Trojans Travel to Long Beach State for Midweek Tilt
Freshman CJ Stubbs is expected to get the ball for the second time this year.
LOS ANGELES — The No. 22 Trojans travel to Long Beach State for a 6 p.m. PT game on Tuesday after taking two of three from Wake Forest over the weekend.
Hernandez Drives in Eventual Game-Winning Run as Trojans Take Care of Long Beach State, 4-3
Senior first baseman Jake Hernandez came through with the eventual game-winning hit in the bottom of the eighth inning to propel the USC baseball team to a 4-3 victory over visiting Long Beach State on Tuesday evening at Dedeaux Field
LONG BEACH STATE NOTES— The Trojans are 79-46 all-time vs. the Dirtbags. The last time the Trojans played at Blair Field was in 2014, where they fell 2-1 (that was their first loss of the 2014 season). Prior to that they defeated the Dirtbags 4-2 in 2012 at Blair Field. The last time the two teams faced off was in 2014, where the Trojans defeated the Dirtbags 4-3. That year the series was split, 1-1. This year's squad is off to a 5-2 start, going 3-1 last week as they took two of three over the weekend from Arizona State and defeated UCLA on Tuesday, 10-1.
Martinez, the leading hitter set to return in 2016, batted .296 with 45 RBI as a sophomore in 2015 and will be expected to move from first base to the starting catcher role after the loss of 2015 Johnny Bench Award winner Garrett Stubbs to graduation.
The catching core will be solidified by a trio of freshmen in CJ Stubbs, Zack Sharpley and Kaleb Murphy, along with junior AJ Fritts.
In 2015, the Trojans finished with a .296 batting average—the team's highest since 2002. They were also among the Pac-12 leaders in multiple offensive categories, ranking second in batting average, second in on-base percentage (.374), third with a .411 slugging percentage, first with 377 runs scored, first with 614 hits, first with 347 RBI, third with 35 home runs, third with 110 doubles and second with 857 total bases. The team was also fourth with 857 total bases, led the Pac-12 with 94 stolen bases and was first with 46 sac flies.
2015 RECAP — The Trojans made the NCAA Tournament in 2015 for the first time since 2005, advancing to the Lake Elsinore Regional final where they lost in extra innings to Virginia. The Trojans lose 2015 Johnny Bench Award winning catcher Garrett Stubbs, a First Team All-American, and batting average leader Bobby Stahel. Nationally, the Trojans ranked amongst the top in many offensive categories, including leading the country in sacrifice flies and ranking 18th in total stolen bases. Outfielder Bobby Stahel's .379 batting average was 26th nationally, while his 86 hits ranked 15th.
Stahel, who was a finalist for the Gregg Olson Award, presented to the breakout player of the year in college baseball, batted .376, the best batting average of any Trojan since 2008. His team-leading 92 hits were the most in the program since 1998 when Robb Gorr had 96 hits.
TROJANS IN THE MAJORS — In the history of the USC baseball program, a total of 110 players had made it to the major leagues. Current major leaguers include Ryan Cook (Seattle Mariners); Tommy Milone (Minnesota Twins); Brad Boxberger (Tampa Bay Rays); Lucas Duda (New York Mets); Ian Kennedy (San Diego Padres); JP Howell (LA Dodgers). BRINGING HIS SKILLS BACK — Former USC shortstop Gabe Alvarez enters his sixth season as assistant coach for the Trojans. Alvarez played at USC as a shortstop from 1993-95 and had a career .338 batting average for the Trojans with 28 home runs and 163 RBI. In 1994, he was a first team All-America pick by the National Collegiate Baseball Writers Association after batting .326 with seven home runs and 51 RBI. He was a second-round selection in the 1995 major league baseball draft by the San Diego Padres and played three seasons in the major leagues (1998-2000).
OPERATION: OMAHA — From 1948 to 1978, USC dominated the world of college baseball with 11 national championships in 17 appearances at the College World Series (the 1948 CWS was held in Kalamazoo, Mich., with the CWS moving to Omaha, Neb., in 1949). After the 1978 season, the Trojans went through a drought and did not return to Omaha until 1995, when Troy reached the national championship game. Since 1995, the Trojans have made four trips to Omaha (1995-1998-2000-2001), winning their 12th CWS title in 1998. USC has the second-most wins (74) at the CWS and is tied for third for most appearances (21).
MAJOR LEAGUE BASEBALL HALL OF FAME — Legendary USC pitcher Randy Johnson became the third Trojan to be named to the Baseball Hall of Fame. He is just the second Trojan to enter the Hall as a player, following in the footsteps of Tom Seaver, who was inducted into the Hall of Fame in 1992 with a 98.8 percent vote, which remains the highest percentage ever for an inducted member. Pat Gillick entered the Hall of Fame in 2011 as a front office executive with the Philadelphia Phillies.

Festival of Trees Kicks Off Holiday Season
November 1, 2002
WINSTON-SALEM, N.C. — Celebrate the start of the holidays with shopping, entertainment and the chance to view 40 fabulous Christmas trees.
The 2002 annual Festival of Trees, benefiting Brenner Children’s Hospital & Health Services, will be held at the Education Building on the Dixie Classic Fairgrounds on Saturday Nov. 23 from 9 a.m. until 6 p.m. and on Sunday, November 24 from noon until 5 p.m. The Jingle Bell Jaunt preview party kicks off the festivities on Friday, Nov. 22 at 7 p.m. Proceeds from the event support programs and services at Brenner Children’s Hospital, part of Wake Forest University Baptist Medical Center.
Brenner Children’s Hospital provides a full range of health services for children from birth to 21.
“This year marks the 14th anniversary of the Festival of Trees,” said Susan Kennedy, Director of Annual Support and Special Projects at Brenner Children’s Hospital. “Because of the festival’s success, Brenner Children’s Hospital has received ongoing support for programs such as Outrageous Courageous Kids, home visitation and support groups for patients and parents.”
The highlight of the festival is the 40 large theme-trees decorated by local garden clubs, interior designers and friends of Brenner Children’s Hospital. The trees are pre-sold to businesses and individual buyers.
“Every year, the trees are a delightful feast for the eyes,” said Leigh Ann Woodruff, 2002 Festival of Trees chairwoman. “This year, we have such fun themes as Birdhouse Rock, Beadazzled and Frosty’s Peppermint Paradise. JoAnne’s Angels, the women who brought us ‘When I’m an Old Woman, I Shall Wear Purple’ last year, are revving it up a notch with a ‘NASCAR’ tree this year. We expect that one to be an attraction!”
Because the festival benefits children, a special Santa’s Breakfast will be held on Saturday morning, beginning at 9 a.m. with free doughnuts and bagels. Santa Claus will hear everyone’s Christmas wish list, and his elf will take photos. Children can make crafts, work off excess energy on the Salem Gymnastics Tumble Bus, or enjoy parachute time, musical instruments, bubbles, puppets and more with Gymboree Play and Music.
“We believe strongly in the mission of Brenner Children’s Hospital and its service to this community,” says Sara Stoeppelwerth, director of Gymboree. “We want to be a part of helping Brenner’s grow, and we want to expose as many children as possible to the learning benefits of our program—the Festival of Trees is a wonderful way to do that.”
The festival will have a wide range of vendors with a lovely assortment of gifts. Simply Sterling, Southern Living at Home, Frolic and It’s Mine! Mine! Mine! are a few of the exciting shopping possibilities. Shoppers will also be able to bid on imaginative gingerbread houses, which will be up for silent auction in the magical, snowy Gingerbread Village. In addition, there are beautifully decorated miniature trees and wreaths available for purchase.
For those non-shoppers who just want to relax and enjoy the holiday atmosphere, entertainment will be provided throughout the weekend, including Southeast Middle School Chorus and West End Ringers. Admission to the Festival of Trees is $4 for adults, free admission for children under 12. There is a $3 charge to enter the children’s activities area. Admission to the Jingle Bell Jaunt is $40. Raffle tickets will be sold for $5 each or five for $20, with prizes ranging from jewelry to children’s furniture.
For more information on the Festival of Trees or to purchase advance tickets or raffle tickets, contact Miley Burnett at 716-7985.

'It's Okay to Not Be Okay' Episode 4: Mun-yeong's understanding of Kang-tae scares him, forces him to lash out | MEAWW
'It's Okay to Not Be Okay' Episode 4: Mun-yeong's understanding of Kang-tae scares him, forces him to lash out
The episode begins with Kang-tae's shocked look at what he uttered out loud and from there, it only goes downhill for both Mun-yeong and him
Published on : 19:03 PST, Jun 28, 2020
Kim Soo-hyun and Seo Ye-ji (tvN)
Just for a moment, Kang-tae was tempted to let go of everything that restrained him in life in 'It's Okay to Not be Okay' episode 3 but it is momentary. In a snap of his fingers, when what he had just thought out loud registers, Kang-tae (Kim Soo-hyun) realizes that he had just said exactly what Mun-yeong (Seo Ye-ji) had wanted. How he faces the consequences of his impulsive confession is what we see in episode 4. The episode begins with Kang-tae's shocked look at what he uttered out loud and from there, it only goes downhill for both Kang-tae and Mun-yeong.
Kang-tae and Mun-yeong in 'It's Okay to Not be Okay' episode 4. (tvN)
This episode also delves deeper into Kang-tae's childhood, and we understand his resolve to care for his brother much better now. Since when he can remember, Kang-tae was brought up as Sang-tae's safety armor. His mother even goes as far as telling Kang-tae that she gave birth to him to ensure that his brother was protected until he breathes his last.
The attention that was given to Sang-tae, and how in contrary Kang-tae was mostly left unattended by his mother influenced a lot of the person that he has grown up to be. The fact that he didn't receive his mother's love and feel the warmth of her protection like his brother is not something that Kang-tae would forget. So when Mun-yeong provokes him with further by talking about why she treats him like one of her possessions, Kang-tae's nerves are frayed.
Mun-yeong and an image of Kang-tae as a child in 'It's Okay to Not be Okay' episode 4. (tvN)
He had already been treated like nothing but a safety belt for his brother and so, when Mun-yeong reflects the same thoughts now while showing interest in him, he is dragged back into the nightmare that haunted him as a child. Even while Mun-yeong provokes him, she also understands the child in Kang-tae who never experienced love and she voices her thoughts about the same to him. More than anything, what really scared Kang-tae is the fact that someone like Mun-yeong with no empathy for fellow humans understanding him like no one else.
This leaves him fuming and when he sees Mun-yeong spend time with Sang-tae, it somehow batters him further. Despite Mun-yeong being genuinely interested in Sang-tae, Kang-tae is not ready to accept her interest as sincere. Just moments before, Kang-tae was slapped by one of the patient's relatives and this is visible because of the bruise that Kang-tae sports. Even as he is fuming, Mun-yeong tries to get him to tell her who hit him so that she could teach them a lesson and that's when his top bursts.
He lashes out at Mun-yeong and tells her that she cannot feel any emotion and that includes the anger that she is trying to portray at the moment. He also tells her that she will never be able to understand him even in her death and that definitely cuts her deep. For someone who responds loudly to any situation, her silence speaks volumes and it is clear that Kang-tae broke her heart with his harsh words. His frustration with Mun-yeong was so potent that it even spilled over onto Sang-tae who gets upset with Kang-tae's anger. Sang-tae hides in the kitchen and repeatedly recalls his brother's angry face and concludes that this brother hates him. Sang-tae was until then really ecstatic about having his dream come true by meeting his idol, but his mood turns sour because of his brother.
Hysterical Mun-yeong after her father tries to choke her to death in 'It's Okay to Not be Okay' episode 4. (tvN)
What is more shocking though is Mun-yeong's experience of meeting her father after many many years only to be treated the same way that she was when she was a child. Her father takes one look at her and asks her, "Why are you still alive?" After the emotional battering that Mun-yeong experienced at the hands of Kang-tae, to be choked by her father again, who clearly intends to kill her has Mun-yeong loses hope. The expression on Mun-yeong's face as she walks away from the hospital reflects desolation. She seems to have no direction in her mind and is just walking where her feet take her, and the hopelessness of it all, especially the one moment that takes Mun-yeong back to her past is reason enough for this episode to come with trigger warning.
'It's Okay to Not Be Okay' originally airs on tvN on Saturdays and Sundays at 9 pm KST in South Korea and can be streamed on Netflix.

Setting The Record straight – The Canadian Record
September 21, 2018 September 21, 2018 admin 1043 Views 0 Comment
In our coverage of this week's city council meeting, we incorrectly reported that the River Valley Pioneer Museum had requested $70,000 in HOT (Hotel/Motel Occupancy Tax) funding for the 2018-19 fiscal year—an increase of $2,000 over the previously budgeted amount. The museum's request was actually only $39,000.
RVPM receives 25 percent of HOT revenues collected by the city, while 50 percent goes to the Canadian/Hemphill County Chamber of Commerce and 25 percent is retained by the city. Under Texas law, HOT revenues can only be used to promote tourism.
The museum's request was accompanied by a proposed budget, showing how the HOT funds would be expended, including: conservation and preservation of exhibits; special events for July 4, Fall Foliage, receptions and traveling exhibits; luncheon events, including their annual membership appreciation luncheon; general maintenance of the meeting room; permanent exhibit redesign; tourism; website expenses and educational workshops; and advertising.
In 2017-18, the museum welcomed 3,270 visitors—nearly 800 of whom were from other communities in Texas or outside of the state, including guests from Germany, Ireland, Brazil and South Africa.
Among the upcoming events already on the museum's schedule is the Smithsonian Exhibit, "HomeTown Teams," which will open November 27, and be on display through the month of December. Museum director Lisa Hanbury reported today that she already has several area schools scheduled to come to Canadian to see the exhibit.

Do you like novelty keychains? Do you like classic gaming titles such as Street Fighter II? Do you like novelty keychains that produce the sound effects from such classic titles as Street Fighter II? You must! You’re reading CrunchGear!
This Bandai keychain must be for you. It has the style and grace of a retro gaming controller, but the the buttons activate sound effects from the game. Best yet, you actually have to preform the moves to get the sounds to work.
For instance, press down, down, right, right + P (punch) it gives the sound effect of Ryu’s ‘Fist Wave’. Awesome, right? There are three different versions, each featuring three different SFII characters. $10 in Japan. [asovision via NewsLaunches]
When Apple quietly turned on carrier billing in iTunes in Germany last month, we said emerging markets could be the company’s biggest opportunity and target for the facility, which lets consumers charge things like app payments and music purchases to their mobile account instead of credit or debit cards. Now this looks like what Apple is doing. Yesterday, it was flagged to us that Beeline, a mobile carrier in Russia, quietly turned on the ability to make payments in iTunes through their billing system.
You can look at how the options look in the screenshots, created in English, here. As you can see, in Russia you are given the option of linking up cards to your account, or you can link your mobile phone. Clicking on the mobile phone option offers the message that you can activate payments this way if you are a Beeline customer. This, in turn, will mean that you are either charged to your monthly bill, or payments are deducted from your topped-up, pay-as-you-go account.
A source close to Boku has confirmed that the U.S.-based startup is providing the mechanics behind this as Apple’s partner.
TechCrunch has confirmed that Boku is also the company working on the billing integration with O2 in Germany that debuted last month (we were not able to get a confirmation at the time from Boku, Apple or O2).
We have contacted both Apple and VimpelCom, Beeline’s Amsterdam, Netherlands-based owner, for a statement on the service that is now live in Russia.
Apple did not respond to requests for comment. And a VimpelCom spokesperson, meanwhile, has said by phone that he would send a statement to me soon, but that was hours ago. I got tired of waiting, so am posting this and will update with it when and if the statement finally arrives. (Friday afternoon and Amsterdam, what more can I say?)
But, as you can see in the screenshots, the service is live and plain enough to see, confirmation or not.
Beeline and Russia are interesting firsts for Apple as it expands carrier billing to developing markets. Beeline is owned by VimpelCom, which is headquartered in Amsterdam and also owns carriers across other emerging markets, including Ukraine, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Tajikistan, Armenia, Georgia, Kyrgyzstan, Cambodia, Laos, Algeria, Bangladesh, Pakistan, Burundi, Zimbabwe, Central African Republic. It also has operations in Canada, Italy and Greece.

Following the nomination, Daniel Birnbaum declared: �My recent exhibitions have all been close collaborations with artists, often individually, sometimes in larger contexts. The Venice Biennale is a new kind of challenge, but the principle remains the same: the artist's vision is at the center. How does one steer clear of the hierarchies dictated by commercial interests and fashion? As the director of an art academy, my interest has long been directed towards another kind of influence and another kind of significance. There are artists who inspire entire generations and these key artists are not always the most visibile in the world of museums and fairs. I would like to explore strings of inspiration that involve several generations and to display the roots as well as the branches that grow into a future not yet defined. The geography of the art world has been expanding rapidly with new centers emerging: China, India, the Middle East... It will be my ambition to create a show that, although articulated into individual zones of intensity, remains one exhibition.�
The President, Paolo Baratta, for his part declared: �With the nomination of a figure with such a rich variety of experiences, the Biennale di Venezia has found a curator for the 53rd Exhibition able to bring to bear original criteria for selection, geared to the artist�s point of view. I am convinced of this choice, of which I am particularly pleased. Between the valleys of ideology and the valley of the market, there is the steep hill of quality. This is where the Biennale must plant its standard. The new Director�, added the President, �will also be an interlocutor for our reflections concerning the future development of more permanent activities�. Daniel Birnbaum
Since 2001, he has been Rector of the Staedelschule in Frankfurt-am-Main in Germany, an international academy bringing together traditional and contemporary art and the development of new processes and techniques. The institute aims to train its students not only on a theoretical level, but also on a practical one, involving the young and artists in a relationship geared to �making art�. Basing himself on this important experience, in 2007 Birnbaum published �Teaching Art: Staedelschule Frankfurt am Main�.

Missouri Blocks Wider E15 Use
Home > Missouri Blocks Wider E15 Use
Missouri lawmakers blocked a proposal Wednesday that could have allowed greater amounts of ethanol to be blended into the gasoline sold for most vehicles. The decision by a legislative panel halts a proposed rule change by the Missouri Department of Agriculture that would have allowed stations to sell fuel containing 15 percent ethanol. Lawmakers said the proposal goes beyond what's allowed under a 2006 state law that required most Missouri gasoline to contain a 10 percent ethanol blend.
Associations for gas stations, petroleum suppliers and automakers had raised concerns that E15 could damage engines in some vehicles and create liability problems for consumers and retailers alike. Corn farmers, whose product is used to make ethanol, had pointed to federal studies affirming that E15 is safe for newer vehicles and can help lower gas prices for drivers. The decision by the Joint Committee on Administrative Rules was not based on the merits of using E15 gasoline. Committee members said the Legislature — not an executive agency — must make the policy decision about whether to allow it.
The motion to block the proposed rule change passed 6-2 with two members absent, getting the minimum vote needed for a majority on the 10-person panel. The decision is essentially a temporary moratorium. The full Legislature can decide whether to permanently block the rule when it convenes in January. Or the department can withdraw the proposed rule change. As of last month, E15 was being sold at about 40 gas stations in nine states — Iowa, Illinois, Kansas, Michigan, Nebraska, North Carolina, North Dakota, South Dakota and Wisconsin, according to the Renewable Fuels Association.
"The real losers here are consumers," said Gary Marshall, CEO of the Missouri Corn Growers Association. "Consumers in nine other states have the ability to buy a fuel that right now is significantly cheaper than gasoline, and Missouri residents don't." By blocking the rule change, consumers may have been spared confusion about whether E15 is appropriate for their vehicles and who should bear responsibility if its use voids manufacturer warranties and causes problems, said Ron Leone, executive director of the Missouri Petroleum Marketers and Convenience Store Association. Now the Legislature can debate and work out those details, he said.
"If somebody misfuels, I do not want my folks to be held liable if they complied with the law," Leone said. "We also don't want the consumer, obviously, to be hurt if they make a mistake and misfuel a car with E15 that's not E15 compatible." Committee chairman Sen. Eric Schmitt said he tried to broker a deal among corn farmers, fuel sellers and the Agriculture Department to back away from the rule change and address the availability of E15 during the 2014 legislative session. Schmitt said a representative of Democratic Governor Jay Nixon wanted to try to go forward with the rule change now. After the legislative panel blocked the rule, Nixon said he hopes lawmakers will still eventually authorize E15 gasoline.
"Expanding the use of renewable fuels is a proven strategy for boosting our nation's energy independence and bringing more dollars back to farming communities across Missouri," Nixon said in a written statement. "I look forward to working with members of the legislature to implement this responsible, voluntary measure that will increase domestic energy production and help grow Missouri's economy." The vote blocking the rule passed with bipartisan support.

West Virginia Power's Juan Then unhittable in season finale | High-A East
Juan Then's final start of the season was another reminder of how glad the Mariners must be to have the right-hander back in their system.Seattle's No. 16 prospect tossed five hitless innings Monday in Class A West Virginia's 2-0 defeat of Greensboro at Appalachian Power Park. Then walked two batters
The Mariners originally signed Then (1-2) out of the Dominican Republic in 2016, but he was traded to the Yankees following the 2017 season before playing in the United States. New York shipped him back to Seattle in June in exchange for big league slugger Edwin Encarnación. Then made his season debut for Class A Short Season Everett a week later.

Los Angeles Chargers Defense Critical to Beating New England Patriots | Sports Media 101
Los Angeles Chargers Defense Critical to Beating New England Patriots
Posted by Will Noltie Associate Editor | Jan 10, 2019 | Chargers101.com, LWOS Chargers
BALTIMORE, MD – JANUARY 06: Los Angeles Chargers defensive end Melvin Ingram III (54) recovers a second half fumble by Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson (8) on January 6, 2019, at M&T Bank Stadium in Baltimore, MD. (Photo by Mark Goldman/Icon Sportswire via Getty Images)
The Los Angeles Chargers escaped out of Wildcard Weekend with a 23-17 win over the Baltimore Ravens. Despite the score, it wasn't until near the end that it was even that close. That was because of a relentless defense that managed to shut down Lamar Jackson for the vast majority of the game, brought heavily on by the pass rush. They sacked Jackson seven times and held the team to below 100 yards rushing. The latter hasn't happened to the Ravens in a while. Tom Brady may be a very different kind of quarterback, but regardless of that, the Chargers need to play strong defense like that again to help themselves defeat the New England Patriots in the Divisional Round.
The Front Few
Obviously, Joey Bosa and Melvin Ingram are the main leaders of the pass rush and they both played a role in the Ravens win. Ingram particularly stood out, though, as he was making plays both in the backfield and as a pass rusher. Such efforts will be needed to help stifle Brady as well as Sony Michel. Isaac Rochell and Justin Jones and whoever else they might put out there need to help with stopping the run too.
The only issue is that you can't really do a lot of complete blitzing against Brady, because if enough space is left open in the flats or in short range in general, he'll just dump it off to James White. In other words, the pressuring does need to be more or less left to the actual defensive ends/tackles. The good thing is that when your main pass rushers are Bosa and Ingram, the quarterback will probably be getting pressured most of the time anyway. And as we saw in the Patriots loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers, sometimes putting sufficient pressure on Brady can be the difference.
Defensive Backs as Linebackers?!
Regarding defending some of the short pass game or even helping stop the run, a bizarre thing happened on Sunday. The Chargers linebacker roster was rather depleted. Jatavis Brown was put on injured reserve. After that, there were only five active linebackers. Most of them don't inspire much confidence (except for rookie Uchenna Nwosu, who forced the game-winning fumble on Sunday).
So, the Chargers did an interesting thing. They put some of their defensive backs where you would normally put linebackers. Namely, safeties. Derwin James and Adrian Phillips spent some time down there. And it was quite effective, as evidenced by how few yards the Ravens were held to for most of the game. Seeing how effective it was, it might be worth doing again. Guys like Phillips have the quickness and physicality to do what needs to be done down there. That could be part of how they keep White from being a factor for the Patriots. It's hard to say if it'll be that effective again against a better offense like Brady's, but it's definitely worth a try.
The Chargers go into this matchup with a better record (12-4) than the Patriots (11-5). And furthermore, overall the Chargers do seem to have the stronger roster. But on the other hand, Philip Rivers has never beaten Brady, and the weather may also be a factor. Much of this game is likely to come down to how Rivers and Brady play, but how the defense plays may be just as important for the Chargers, if not even more. Anyway, the Patriots are 8-0 at home this year and the Chargers are undefeated outside the city of Los Angeles in general. Something will give on Sunday.

W.L. Swarts Reviews The Universe: A Generally Gross Tasting Drink, Powerade Mountain Blast May Replenish The Body, But...
A Generally Gross Tasting Drink, Powerade Mountain Blast May Replenish The Body, But...
The Good: Seems to do what it promises for hydration
The Bad: Salty taste, Not a thirst quencher, Proportionately expensive (economically and environmentally)
The Basics: With a fairly vile taste, Powerade Mountain Blast leaves me gagging more than refreshed or feeling like I'm stocking up on electrolytes.
It is amusing to me what sticks with me and I take a while to get around to reviewing. Last summer, my wife and I visited Michigan and I tried a lot of different things, some of which I reviewed at the time. Others, like the Powerade Mountain Blast beverage, it was only be recently re-encountering that it occurred to me I ought to review it! I am not generally into the energy drinks, even when they are catchy like the Duff Energy Drink (click here for my review!). Even so, I recall generally liking the Powerade Mountain Blast. Unfortunately, having retasted the Mountain Blast, I am convinced Coca Cola (which owns Powerade) either changed their formula radically or my palate has matured dramatically in the past year!
Powerade is a sports drink, a type of beverage designed primarily for sports participants to quickly replace nutrients the body loses while working out. Powerade Mountain Blast comes in a 32 oz. (fluid ounces) plastic bottle that is bulky to the grip. Contoured not to slip, the #1 recyclable bottle is filled with the translucent blue liquid that is Mountain Blast Powerade. Powerade is produced by the Coca Cola Company in their effort to compete with more established sports drinks, like Gatorade.
The 32 oz. bottle is intended to give consumers four servings, though the eight oz. serving size seems unrealistically small. Having recently had this while out at the beach, it was ridiculously easy to go through this after an hour swim!
Powerade is a liquid in the 32 oz. bottle (I've not yet found a powdered version, but it would not surprise me if it is available elsewhere). Preparation is as easy as opening a plastic bottle. Powerade has a plastic cap that easily twists off and can be put back on in order to reseal it. It is important to note that this is supposed to be refrigerated after it is opened, so quality of the beverage may degrade if it is left out at room temperature or in summer heat after the bottle is open.
Powerade Mountain Blast has a very neutral bouquet. The blue liquid smells more like chemicals than it does like fruit of any sort. One usually assumes that a blue liquid is supposed to be blue raspberry flavor, but I didn't get that from the aroma of the Mountain Blast Powerade.
Powerade Mountain Blast is remarkably indistinct in its taste. This flavor tastes unlike any known fruit and tastes like how it smells, vaguely like chemicals and minerals. Powerade Mountain Blast is salty and watery more than sweet and fruity. There is not a single distinct fruit taste that I could pick out of the drink, though the closest fruit analogy I could make is that this is like a watered down version of a blue raspberry icee after salt has been added to it. But more than anything that resembles a blend of fruit tastes, the drink tastes watery and slightly salty.
As well, Powerade Mountain Blast bears a very strong aftertaste. This drink has a very dry aftertaste that is anything but refreshing.
As a sports drink, Powerade Mountain Blast is designed to replenish sodium, potassium, calcium and magnesium quickly. This might restore electrolytes, but it does nothing that makes the consumer feel refreshed or energized. In fact, I've no proof that the drink actually restores electrolytes at an accelerated rate, only the assertion on the bottle that that is what the drink does.
Nutritionally, Powerade Mountain Blast is mediocre. It is primarily composed of water, high fructose corn syrup, and citric acid. It contains no fruit juice, so it is unsurprising that it is not rich in a variety of vitamins. However, it is not the worst beverage one can drink (though there are some fairly chemical-sounding elements in the ingredient list) as it has no fat and only 14 grams of sugar. Still, there is 100 mg (4% RDA) of sodium in each serving. There is also 10% of the RDA of three different B vitamins and 25 mg. potassium.
Powerade Mountain Blast comes in a plastic bottle and it keeps almost a year. The one I had at the beach expired early in 2011. Stored in a cool place, it ought to be fine at least until its expiration date (whatwith having all sorts of preservatives).
This drink is a clear blue color, but if it gets on light fabrics it will certainly stain them. Consult a care guide for your clothes, though I suspect light clothes would need bleach to get this out. Still, the drink wipes off surfaces easily with a cloth, assuming they are impermeable.
I was unimpressed by Powerade Mountain Blast and actually grossed out some by its salty taste and dry aftertaste. There are better ways to get electrolytes restored than this awkward and undelicious beverage.

Scottish Business Buzz (22.03.17) – Business for Scotland
Record high for Scotland's food and drink exports
Scottish food and drink exports rose to a record £5.5bn last year, according to government figures.
Exports to EU countries were worth £2.3bn, up £133m, which the Scottish government said highlighted the significance of Scotland remaining in the single market.
David Williamson of the Scotch Whisky Association said it was clear the Scottish food and drink was "leading in the way" in terms of the country's economic and export performance, "But we need support from governments as we deal with the challenges and opportunities ahead, including Brexit."
Scottish government grants planning consent for 12MW Dounreay Tri floating wind farm
Housebuilder Bellway says Scottish independence wouldn't impact growth strategy
Despite uncertainty never being welcome Mr Adey added: "Of course it has a degree of uncertainty for people but we're still investing in Scotland and Scotland is doing very well for us. Demand is strong, we're buying land and reservations are coming through well. We've got a good business so I don't see how the referendum will change that."
Gear up for cyclists as market is worth £345million to Scots economy
Tourism businesses are being urged to capitalise on the country's growing reputation for visitors coming to Scotland for cycling breaks.
A new Leisure Cycling Tourism Guide launched by Sustrans Scotland, offers advice and guidance on making businesses more accommodating for cyclists.
John Lauder, national director of Sustrans Scotland, said: "In order to realise the full potential of cycling opportunities in Scotland, it is vital for businesses to understand the needs of leisure cyclists. The cycling market is thriving and has the potential to become one of Scotland's top tourism activities."

Based on real events, A Hidden Life is the story of an unsung hero, Bl. Franz Jägerstätter, who refused to fight for the Nazis in World War II. When the Austrian peasant farmer is faced with the threat of execution for treason, it is his unwavering faith and his love for his wife, Fani, and children that keeps his spirit alive. Written by Anonymous
A couple of days before the world premiere of A Hidden Life in Cannes Film Festival, there was a special screening for the daughters of Jägerstätters at their home. According to Valerie Pachner, the three sisters satisfiedly liked the film. See more »
Franz Jägerstätter: [narrating] I thought that we could build our nest high up, in the trees. Fly away, like birds - to the mountains.
The title card at the end of the picture comes from the final sentence of George Eliot's "Middlemarch". See more »
A meditation on morality and faith; a film of unparalleled sublimity; an experience beyond the sensory
Always an explicitly Christian filmmaker, writer/director Terrence Malick has never been didactic, dogmatic, or puritanical. No matter how lofty his vision, his films remain always rooted in the human soul, in the tradition of Heidegger's existential phenomenology, which focuses on the ontology of the earthly Dasein ("being-there") rather than the epistemology of the Lebenswelt ("lifeworld") - even the most overtly metaphysical scenes in Malick remain focused on the physical. And A Hidden Life, which may be his most ostensibly Christian work yet, is quintessentially Malickian, featuring many of his most identifiable stylistic traits (whispered voice-overs, sweeping cameras spinning around non-stationary characters, the beauty of nature contrasted with the ugliness of humanity). Malick's films are about the search for transcendence in a compromised and often evil world, and, telling the true story of the Austrian conscientious objector Franz Jägerstätter, A Hidden Life is no different. And how good is it? Very, very, very good. Not quite The Thin Red Line (1998)/The Tree of Life (2011) good, but certainly Badlands (1973)/Days of Heaven (1978)/The New World (2005) good. This is cinema at its most sublimely pious, a supremely talented master-auteur operating at the height of his not inconsiderable powers. You don't watch A Hidden Life. You let it enter your soul.
Austria, 1938. In the bucolic village of Sankt Radegund, peasant farmer Franz Jägerstätter (August Diehl) lives a simple but blissful life with his wife Fani (Valerie Pachner) and their family. A devout Christian, he's unenthusiastic about the looming war, despite its widespread popularity in the village. Called up to basic training, he's away for several months, but when France surrenders in June 1940, it's thought that the war will soon end, and he's sent home without having been deployed. However, as time goes by, and as the war shows no signs of ending, his opposition grows ever more ingrained, to the point where his family are being harassed. Eventually, he's conscripted, but refuses to swear an oath of allegiance to Hitler, and so is arrested and imprisoned.
Needless to say, Malick fashions this material into a thematically rich mosaic. To a certain extent, all his films deal, to one degree or another, with the notion of the corruption of Eden, and Hidden Life is as literal as Thin Red Line and New World in this respect. Sankt Radegund is an earthly paradise, hidden in the embrace of the nearby mountains, fed by the River En (the film was originally called simply Radegund, before adopting the George Eliot quote as its title). However, as the war takes hold, the village comes under attack, not by bombs, but by ideological complicity. The harmony and idealism have been corrupted, not by Franz's refusal to comply, by everyone else's insistence on compliance. The village at the end of the film is an infinitely different place from that at the start, a tainted place. Eden has fallen.
Franz doesn't resist the Nazis because he wants to spearhead a movement or because of political high-mindedness. His reasons are simpler - he believes that God teaches us to resist evil, and as a great evil, he must therefore resist Nazism. There's nothing egotistical and precious little that's political in this stance. It's not even a question of personal morality. In an important exchange with Judge Lueben (the late, great Bruno Ganz), Franz is asked, "Do you have a right to do this?", to which he responds, "Do I have a right not to?" His resistance is ingrained in his very soul. Indeed, watching him head willingly toward his tragic fate, turning the other cheek to the prison guards who humiliate and torture him, he becomes something of a Christ figure, with his time in prison not unlike the Passion. An important conversation concerning this is when he is speaking to Ohlendorf (Johan Leysen), a cynical artisan who is restoring the local church's artwork. Ohlendorf laments that he must work not on images of Christ's suffering as it was, but on the sanitised version desired by the clergy, and he lacks the courage to do otherwise; "I paint their comfortable Christ, with a halo over his head. Some day I might have the courage to venture. Not yet. Some day. I'll paint the true Christ." It's a subtle summation of Franz's situation, of course, but so too of the film, which shows Franz's suffering as it was even as it celebrates the power of faith to transcend such suffering.
In this sense, much like Pvt. Witt (Jim Caviezel) in Thin Red Line, Franz is a Heideggerian sein-zum-tode ("being-towards-death"). This describes not the hastening towards the end of Dasein in a biological sense but is rather about the process of growing in the Lebenswelt to a point where one gains an authentic perspective, as one comes to completely accept the temporality of this existence, and hence no longer fear death. The application to both Witt and Franz is obvious - both men accept that this world is transitory and that life is simply part of the soul's eternal journey, so neither man fears death, and by not fearing it, they triumph over it.
Aesthetically, as one expects from Malick, A Hidden Life is almost overwhelmingly beautiful, particularly in its depiction of nature. Shooting digitally, Malick and his first-time cinematographer Jörg Widmer shot most of the exteriors (and some of the interiors) in a wide-lens anamorphic format that distorts everything outside the dead-centre of the frame. The effect is subtle (we're not talking fisheye lens distortion), but important - pushing the mountains further around the village, bringing the sky closer, elongating the already vast fields. This is a land beyond time, a modern Utopia that kisses the very sky.

Healthy Breakfast Cereal for babies/toddlers
Hi TNT thanks for sharing. Can i ask if Kids Wheetbix is suitable from 1 year old? or Older? :) Where did u buy them from please?
04-21-2011, 12:35 PM #10
Regular weetabix is fine from six months, so is regular oatmeal, there's really no need to pay extra for kids stuff. Just pick the brand with the fewest additives for weetabix and get plain porridge oats which have no sugar or salt added.
04-21-2011, 12:38 PM #11
We give mostly museli. Dorset Cereals an Jordan's make sugar free versions with dried fruit and nuts, as does Citisuper. But we only began giving this after about 18 months due to the nuts, before we only gave rice or oats porriage. You can also make your own sugar, salt and additives free wholewheat bread or pancakes.
04-21-2011, 12:54 PM #12
Thanks everyone!!! Very helpful. Will go check them out.
To be honest, we haven't been very careful in feeding her. We literally give her everything we eat, so I am sure she is exposed to way too much sugar and salt.
Only thing we haven't given her is Nuts (19 months now), when is a good time to introduce nuts?
04-21-2011, 01:57 PM #13
we do cheerios + kix cereals, congee and then home-made oatmeal w/raisins and pears (annabel karmel's recipe) which is super quick and easy.
04-21-2011, 02:19 PM #14
jvn i agree normally re kids products, I think in the survey they used it rather than normal weetbix because they were looking at cereals targeted at kids, but salt and sugar levels are similiar for the normal version to the kids. You can buy both normal weetbix and kids weetbix at Marketplace and many other nternational type supermarkets, also some Wellcome's & Park n shop. Both my two (4.5 and 22 months) love it with fresh fruit or sultanas and they have that or porridge or muesli during the week; they have bagel/toast, egg or sometimes cornflakes or similar for a change at the weekends. I have dorset muesli with natural yoghurt and fruit and both of them also try to eat my breakfast (they have v good appetites)
04-21-2011, 03:28 PM #15
We're the same, he's the same age and has eaten exactly what we've eaten from six months. I just get a bit annoyed when things that 'should' be healthy and not have salt added, like cereal. It just seems so unnecessary.

Memorial Day is a time for many to reflect on the sacrifices and services of the American soldiers and veterans and the U.S. military men and women and express appreciation, support and prayers.
Warren Township Mayor Mick Marion, Deputy Mayor George Lazo, and Councilman Gary DiNardo were in attendance as well as the Warren American Legion Post 293 commander and honor guard. See TAPinto video
Marion said,” Memorial Day is a day to honor those brave heroes who paid the ultimate price while fighting for our beautiful country and the freedoms we tend to take for granted. It is a day for all Americans to say,” We are grateful for you” and most importantly “ We haven’t forgotten you.”
“With quarantines and isolation that have been necessary to fight this new invisible enemy known as Coronavirus, I believe now, possibly more than ever, we have come to appreciate those freedoms that we usually enjoy as Americans.
As things are starting to open up again and many restrictions are being lifted, let’s all remember the sacrifices our service men and women made for every one of us as we begin to enjoy those freedoms once again.
Driving around this past week, I am so heartened to see all of the American flags flying proudly through Warren Township.
On behalf of the Township Committee, I want to thank everyone for participating in our 1000 Flags for Memorial Day Challenge and for flying those flags to say, “we haven’t forgotten you.” May God Bless everyone who is mourning the loss of a loved one today. Be strong and cherish the happy memories.” See TAPinto video
Freedom isn’t free. “Our debt to the heroic men and valiant women in the service of our country can never be repaid. They have earned our undying gratitude. America will never forget their sacrifices.” – Harry S. Truman
“As we honor their memory today, let us pledge that their lives, their sacrifices, their valor shall be justified and remembered for as long as God gives life to this nation. And let us also pledge to do our utmost to carry out what must have been their wish: that no other generation of young men will every have to share their experiences and repeat their sacrifice.” – Ronald Reagan
WARREN, NJ – Warren, Watchung and Green Brook residents made noise on Thursday in a show of support for all essential workers: healthcare workers, grocery store clerks, pharmacists, first responders and others who have given of themselves to provide needed services to all of us during the Coronavirus response.
Warren’s first responders, and Mayor Mick Marion and Deputy Mayor George Lazo drove through the town center with sirens wailing, followed by TAPinto Warren. See video here
Township resident Debora Spingarn reached out to Jane Asch of the Office of Emergency Management, who then referred the idea to Deputy Mayor George Lazo and the Township Committee.
Deputy Mayor George Lazo, who is leading this effort in Warren stated, “Ms. Spingarn and I wanted to spread some positive energy, and encourage Warren residents to take a moment to thank our healthcare workers, first responders, grocery clerks, pharmacists, and others who are providing necessary services. It is time to say a community-wide thank you.”
Warren Mayor Marion stated on behalf of the Township Committee, “This is just one more example of Warren residents taking positive steps during a difficult time.
