The National Insurance Commission (NAICOM) may increase the capital base of insurance firms to about N15 billion anytime from now.
According to industry sources, NAICOM may mandate insurance firms to recapitalise or merge in order to meet the new capital requirement.
Nairametrics understands that the current minimum capital requirement of life insurance firms is N2 billion, while non-life is N3 billion; even as composite is N5 billion.
What insurance firms should expect?
When NAICOM finally confirms the increment of the capital base for insurance firms, recapitalisation will become compulsory. This will be unlike the optional window introduced by the Commission through the Tier-Based Minimum Solvency Capital (TBMSC) policy, which was rejected by the operators and later withdrawn by the Commission.
Although NAICOM‘s Mohammed Kari has been silent on the issue, sources close to the situation said the Commission is, indeed, working underground to bring the new recapitalisation to fruition soon.
Before the cancellation of the TBMSC, Kari had stated that there was the need for insurance companies to recapitalise.
“AS INSURERS CONTINUE TO TAKE TOO MUCH RISK WITH THEIR LITTLE CAPITAL, COUPLED WITH THE TWIN RISKS ARISING FROM IMPAIRMENT OF CERTAIN ASSETS AND INAPPROPRIATE PRICING OF INSURED RISKS, THERE HAS BEEN AN INCREASING INABILITY OF MANY INSURERS TO HONOUR CONTRACTUAL COMMITMENTS TO THE INSURED AND THE SHAREHOLDERS.
Kari also assured that the recapitalisation would boast the soundness and profitability of insurers, support the stability of the financial system and increase insurance contribution to the nation’s Gross Domestic Product (GDP); and limit significant systemic risks and build confidence in the industry, THEREBY ensuring the stability of the insurance sector. | 2019-04-20T18:33:58 | https://see-naija.com/naicom-may-soon-raise-insurance-companies-capital-base-to-n15bn/ |
Peltor SportTac Active Protection. Mouse over images to see larger version. Peltor SportTac Green & Orange Active Protection for Shooting Ear defenders. Developed specifically for hunters and marksmen and comes with Orange and Green Earshell Covers. Peltor SporTac is an intelligent active hearing proctor. The smooth adjustment of the hearing protector’s level dependent function gives the user particularly pleasant sound reproduction and less interference. The unique digital audio circuit eliminates the abrupt sound cut-off the characterises many level dependent hearing protectors on the market. It is this abrupt cut-off that is experienced as being unpleasant and disruptive. The new electronics in the Peltor SportTac respond at lightning speed and protect the user’s hearing from loud impulse noises. However, the system reacts so gently that in most cases, you’ll never hear the cut-off when the protector is activated. Just like Peltor’s other level dependent hearing protectors, SportTac also amplifies your hearing so you actually hear better then you would without the protector. And of course you can connect your hunting radio straight into the protector. All so you can remain fully in communication all the time. A good hearing protector should remove harmful noise, should be comfortable to wear and should be able to be used for all types of Hunting and Shooting. The new Peltor SprotTac truly lives up to all these criteria. The protector is foldable to take up the least possiable space in your backpocket or jacket pocket. The comfortable headband adjusts conveniently for maximum comfort. Volume is adjusted by pressing a button, and both radio and dog tracker can be connected directly to the hearing protector. The Peltor SportTac is also equipped with an automatic shut-off function. Weight is only 318 g. Operating time 600 hours. Battery type is AAA 2×1.5v – Smooth active-volume function, which eliminates abrupt sound cut-off – Interchangeable shells makes it easy to change colour – Connects to hunting radio -Equipped with automatic shut-off function – Collapsible.

First Asset U.S. & Canada Lifeco Income ETF (the "Fund") investment objectives are to provide unitholders with (i) quarterly cash distributions; (ii) the opportunity for capital appreciation; and (iii) lower overall volatility of portfolio returns than would be experienced by owning a portfolio of publicly-traded common equity securities of the ten largest U.S. and Canadian life insurance companies by market capitalization directly.
The Manager believes that the portfolio securities of the Fund are attractive long term investments, but that they may exhibit significant price volatility for the foreseeable future. Accordingly, the Manager believes that an investment strategy which incorporates selling call options to capitalize on this volatility while retaining all the upside on a significant portion of the Fund's portfolio is an attractive risk adjusted way to own a portfolio of such securities.
The indicated rates of return are the historical annual compounded total returns, including changes in unit value and do not take into account sales, redemption or optional charges or income taxes payable by a security holder that would have reduced returns. The Fund was originally launched as a TSX-listed closed-end fund on August 22, 2013, and automatically converted into a TSX-listed exchange traded fund on September 3, 2014, with no change to its investment objectives or management fees. Performance shown is since inception of the closed-end fund.
1 The Current Dividend Yield represents the gross yield on the ETF`s underlying portfolio of securities. It is not the yield or the distribution investors will receive by virtue of an investment in the ETF. | 2019-04-20T16:50:37 | https://www.firstasset.com/solutions/overview/?fund=First+Asset+U.S.+%26amp%3B+Canada+Lifeco+Income+ETF |

A sociologist examines how affluent white children think about race.
Join Linda Olson-Osterlund in a discussion with author and sociologist Margaret Hagerman examining how affluent white children think about race. Call (503) 231-8187 with your comments.
A complex and nuanced academic book.
Featuring the actual voices of young, affluent white kids and what they think about race, racism, inequality, and privilege, White Kids illuminates how white racial socialization is much more dynamic, complex, and varied than previously recognized. It is a process that stretches beyond white parents’ explicit conversations with their white children and includes not only the choices parents make about neighborhoods, schools, peer groups, extracurricular activities, and media, but also the choices made by the kids themselves. By interviewing kids who are growing up in different racial contexts—from racially segregated to meaningfully integrated and from politically progressive to conservative—this important book documents key differences in the outcomes of white racial socialization across families. And by observing families in their everyday lives, this book explores the extent to which white families, even those with anti-racist intentions, reproduce and reinforce the forms of inequality they say they reject. | 2019-04-19T05:24:05 | https://kboo.fm/media/67247-white-kids |
I joined the former School of Management at the University of Leicester in 1997. Prior to this appointment I taught organisation studies, business ethics, marketing courses, and statistics theory at the University of Oxford, Canterbury Christ Church University, and the Deutsche Private Finanzakademie, Munich.
I received a PhD (D.Phil.) in social studies/green consumer studies from the University of Oxford (1996), and a PhD (Dr. rer. pol) in economics, ethics and organisation theory from the Catholic University of Eichstätt at Ingolstadt (2001/2003). I studied management studies and economics at the Ludwig-Maximilians-University, Munich (Dipl.-Kfm), the University of Birmingham, the University of Oxford, and the Catholic University of Eichstätt/Ingolstadt. More recently, my teaching has included courses on business ethics, and research methodology. I am a senior fellow of the Higher Education Academy (SFHEA).
I have been working closely with Japanese institutions: I obtained research fellowships from The Japan Society for the Promotion of Science (JSPS) in conjunction with the Kanazawa Institute of Technology (KIT) (2013; appointed as research fellow at the Kanazawa Institute of Technology 01 April 2013 – 31 March 2014), and from The Japan Foundation in conjunction with the Business Ethics Research Center (BERC), Tokyo (2005). Currently I am appointed Visiting Professor at the Kanazawa Institute of Technology, Japan. As an undergraduate I held a student scholarship at the Hanns-Seidel-Stiftung, Germany (1989–1991). In 2016, I obtained two grants from the Teaching Development Fund (TDF) of the College of Social Sciences, Arts, and Humanities of the University of Leicester for setting up and developing a peer-assisted learning (PAL) scheme, followed by a third grant from the TDF (January 2017) for setting up an accreditation scheme with the Institute of Leadership and Management (ILM) for our PAL scheme (this grant jointly held with Dr Matt Allen).
My research is interdisciplinary, drawing on institutional and constitutional economics for discussing questions of organisation, management, philosophy, ethics, religion, and the history of political and organisational economic thought. In a normative ethical perspective, my research connects to the understanding that economics is grounded in a mutual gains programme and ideals such as the ‘wealth of nations’; aiming to steer, conventionally seen, ethical outcomes of social interactions through systemic intervention with incentive structures.
In this way I trace ‘economics as ethics’ in my research on management and ethics concepts, religious texts, philosophical texts, texts of organisation theory, business ethics theory and corporate social responsibility (CSR) theory. By doing so, I can challenge basic assumptions about the nature of such texts; its key motivations and significance; and how they reflect on modernity and modern ethics (i.e. the Scottish Enlightenment and its vision of economics as ethics). Here, I point towards the emergence, however basic, of modernity even in ancient text. From this vantage point, moral claims are aligned with (institutional and constitutional) economic intervention strategies.
My research covers a range of sources such as management and organisation concepts, philosophical writings like the ones of Hobbes and Smith, to ethical and religious texts, such as the Bible. Some of my earlier research includes the anthropological and cognitive study of green, environmentally-friendly consumer behaviour.
Copies of my journal articles and working papers can be accessed through the Leicester Research Archive (LRA). If you have problems in accessing the LRA, please email me and - assuming you need a paper for academic research purposes only - then, in most cases, I can send you an electronic copy of a paper by email.

A report this weekend by Axios cited documents from within the National Security Council describing the possibility — nay, inevitability — of a 5G network built and operated by the U.S. government. Officials have since poured cold water on this idea, and really, it was never feasible.
In brief, the report cited by Axios suggested that the only way to truly secure the next generation of wireless networks, on which critical infrastructure like self-driving cars will rely, against snooping by China and others, would be for the government to build that network itself.
There are several things wrong with this idea. You probably thought of a couple before you even got to this sentence.
That would be awkward, since those companies, along with others around the world, are well into the process of testing and deploying 5G networks. The idea of a government network operating separately but in concert with the commercial networks doesn’t hold water (we’ve considered it before).
Even if it was attempted, there’s just no way that the U.S. government, even at its best and most efficient, and if it started bipartisan work on this tomorrow, could be in any way competitive in the timing and scale of such a deployment. It takes billions of dollars and years of work to lay the foundation for something like this, and others have a huge head start. And let us not forget that we are experiencing one of an endless series of budget crises, which would not be alleviated by the proposal of this kind of massive undertaking.
I oppose any proposal for the federal government to build and operate a nationwide 5G network. The main lesson to draw from the wireless sector’s development over the past three decades—including American leadership in 4G—is that the market, not government, is best positioned to drive innovation and investment. What government can and should do is to push spectrum into the commercial marketplace and set rules that encourage the private sector to develop and deploy next-generation infrastructure. Any federal effort to construct a nationalized 5G network would be a costly and counterproductive distraction from the policies we need to help the United States win the 5G future.
The United States’ leadership in the deployment of 5G is critical and must be done right. Localities have a central role to play; the technical expertise possessed by industry should be utilized; and cybersecurity must be a core consideration. A network built by the federal government, I fear, does not leverage the best approach needed for our nation to win the 5G race.
While I’m glad that the Trump Administration recognizes that maintaining American leadership in the information age requires a significant investment commitment, I’m concerned that constructing a nationalized 5G network would be both expensive and duplicative, particularly at a time when the Administration is proposing to slash critical federal investments in R&D and broadband support for unserved areas.
The Trump administration itself told Recode that the document Axios saw was dated, and that it wasn’t a seriously considered proposition. The National Security Council doesn’t oversee broadband deployment, and there’s no way this would get past the FCC, which as you can see above would likely be united in opposition to such a strategy.
And although the NSC clearly has national security in mind when it suggests this path, I frankly would not trust the government to build a secure network of any kind, let alone one this big. There would also be considerable irony in a government attempting to secure its internet infrastructure while simultaneously attempting to undermine effective encryption.
The U.S. government may very well use part of the 5G network being built for its own purposes, and it of course subsidizes the rollout of the tech so it can use it itself — first responder networks, military stuff, that kind of thing. But the idea that it would, or could, build a competitive 5G network in the manner suggested has no basis in reality. | 2019-04-22T18:40:53 | https://techcrunch.com/2018/01/29/theres-no-way-the-government-is-building-its-own-5g-network/ |

I started my day with my To-Do list on my mind and relating to it as my Not- Done list. My inner critic was taunting me like it is a What- Have-You-Even-Done?!?! List....It had me in an internal battle of positive and negative thoughts all morning.
Needless to say, my thoughts had been cloudy and bogged down. It felt heavy. I didn't exactly jump out of bed ready to seize the day or to inspire anybody as I normally do.
I started today in my woes about a half unpacked apartment, a ton of emails to check, write, and respond to, and more to-do's comin' down the pipe. Essentially, I woke up a little less than grateful.
Noticing this, I began affirming myself and my life out loud.
"I love my new space, my job, my Jeep, my peeps, etc..."
....and I still felt heavy.
I was sulking until the moment that I saw this beautiful woman's status! I read it and immediately picked my chin up and looked forward into 2020.
I had realized in that very moment, what I was sulking in was my current circumstances. My vision was so clouded that the sun could not shine through and I could not see forward into the future.
The way we act in the present is very predictably dictated by the future that we are 'living into.' It is a pretty certain fact, if I say so myself. If you're living in to a heavy to-do list, you will feel heavy.
If you are living into a declared future of creative expression, the same to-do list can look a lot brighter!
I know what I'm living for.
I know what I'm up to in this world and I am certainly grateful to honor the callings and tugs of my heart! Everything I'm up to is in service of the greater good. That to-do list that I woke up stressed about is in service of the greater good.
Nothing shifted in my life except for my mind state. I gave up the bogged down story and grabbed back onto positive impact.
Since that moment, I released a new Hearts Unleashed Podcast episode, had 3 client calls, worked a full work day, sent off four emails, scheduled 3 appointments, updated my website, and more! Letting go of my pity party allowed me to grab back on to life BEING a party!!!
Gina, thank you for bringing my feet back to the ground today! You helped me stand back on the foundation that I have laid while keeping my head in the clouds and dreaming about all that I am creating!
You are an amazing woman and every tiny act of kindness that you do creates a giant tidal wave of positove ripple effect!
Thank you for today's inspiration and for being the amazing woman that you are! LOVE YOU!
Funny enough, today's 15 Min Fill Up episode is all about 'doing the work' of clearing your head and heart so that you can keep 'doing the work' that you were born to do!!! Please, check it out!! | 2019-04-24T21:46:06 | http://www.abigailgazda.com/blog/woke-up-bogged-down |

Brian Lewerke threw three touchdown passes, two during a 21-point second quarter, as Michigan State defeated Washington State, 42-17, Thursday evening in the 40th annual Holiday Bowl at San Diego County Credit Union Stadium.
The Cougars played without record-setting quarterback Luke Falk, who missed the game because of an injury to his left (non-throwing) wrist.
Falk was in uniform for pre-game warmups, then changed into sweats when the team took to the field for the game.
Sophomore Tyler Hilinski started in place of Falk, completing 39 of 50 passes for 272 yards and two second-half touchdowns, both to Tay Martin, in his first college start.
The Spartans (10-3) scored touchdowns on five consecutive possessions in the second and third quarters as Mark Dantonio won his 100th game in his 11th season as their coach.
Lewerke completed 13 of 21 passes for 213 yards and was selected as the offensive MVP. Michigan State linebacker Chris Frey was selected as the defensive MVP, making a team-high equaling six tackles.
The Spartans outgained Washington State, 440 yards to 296 and led 25- 17 in first downs and 36:42-23:18 in time of possession. They entered the game second among Football Bowl Subdision School in time of possession, averaging 35 minutes, 12 seconds per game.
Lewerke threw a 15-yard touchdown pass to Cody White and a 49-yard pass to Felton Davis in the second quarter before a crowd announced at 47,092.
Michigan State increased its lead to 21-3 29 seconds before halftime on L.J. Scott’s 3-yard run.
The Spartans drove 67 yards on 10 plays on the opening possession of the second half, with Lewerke throwing a 10-yard touchdown pass to White.
Damion Terry ran six yards for a touchdown for Michigan State seven plays after Chris Frey recovered a fumble by Hilinski at the Washington State 27-yard line.
Hilinski threw a 14-yard touchdown pass to Martin in the third quarter and a 15-yard touchdown pass to Martin in the fourth quarter.
Spartans junior L.J. Scott ran 28 yards with 6:14 left for the game’s final touchdown.
The Cougars (9-4) opened the scoring on Erik Powell’s 45-yard field goal in the first quarter.
Falk entered the game second among FBS quarterbacks with 357 completions, 11 less than Mike White of Western Kentucky, which earlier finished its season. Falk was also second behind White in passes thrown with 534, 26 less than White.
Falk is the Pac-12 Conference career record holder in completions (1,404), passing yards (14,486), touchdown passes (119), total offense (14,086) and passes (2,055).
Washington State was making its second consecutive appearance in the Holiday Bowl and fourth overall. The Cougars lost to Minnesota, 17-12, in 2016 and to Brigham Young, 38-36 in the 1981 game, in a game it trailed 31-7 early in the second half.
Washington State’s lone Holiday Bowl victory came in 2003 when it defeated Texas, 28-20.
Michigan State made its first Holiday Bowl appearance and first appearance in California since the 2014 Rose Bowl Game when it defeated Stanford, 24-20.
The Holiday Bowl has annually matched teams from the Pac-12 and Big Ten Conference since 2014.
This was the first meeting between the teams since 1977. The Spartans increased their lead in the series to 6-2. | 2019-04-25T18:30:20 | https://timesofsandiego.com/sports/2017/12/28/michigan-state-defeats-washington-state-holiday-bowl/ |
The SP2022 features fully licensed SIG SAUER trademarks, etched onto the slide, with a SIG PRO marking on the textured hand grip which weighs in at about 400g (loaded). The integrated railed frame allows you to easily mount tactical accessories including but not limited to lasers and flashlights. The gun frame is made out of a high impact polymer for durability.
It features a taut and lightweight frame, easily making it an extremely versatile firearm that can be quickly drawn, shot, and re-holstered with minimal effort. In comparison to its heavier counterpart with a metal slide, this all-polymer version is lighter in weight and thus much more versatile in nature. While it lacks the metal slide, it certainly more than makes up for its light weight with its power, topping the charts at about 400 FPS! This is enhanced by the fact that the gun is so efficient, each CO2cartridge will last up to 250 BBs before having to change it. | 2019-04-25T04:25:48 | https://www.wholesaleblades.com/394-FPS-Licensed-Sig-Sauer-SP2022-Airsoft-CO2-Pistol-w-20mm-Rail_p_65360.html |

The 2012 presidential election yet again reaffirmed the enormous gap that exists between America’s non-Hispanic whites and the rest of the population. African Americans, Latinos and even Asian Americans supported Obama’s 2012 bid by at least 70%. While pundits have scrambled to attempt to explain why it is that Democrats enjoy such a lead when it comes to minority voters, political science research has established that group identity (Conover, 1984), consciousness (Sanchez 2007), linked fate (Dawson, 1995) and acculturation (Branton, 2007) are all forces that shape minority and immigrant group attitudes and partisanship. How these social identities are translated into political ones has been the subject of much academic work (See Political Psychology’s 2001 symposium on Political Identity), nonetheless one of the failures of even recent research on minority and diversity politics has been to acknowledge the existence of multiple and fluid identities within individuals that coexist and change in political salience.
The concept of multiple identities is not new and raises the importance of context when exploring the impact of groups and identities on politics. Nonetheless, the literature on immigration, race and acculturation has tended to focus on a dichotomy that ignores multiculturalism and assumes the result of the “American melting pot” of ethnicities and culture must always be a standard hot dog flavor.
Possibly one of the greatest disservices to newcomers to the study of Latino political identities is to expose them to Sam Huntington’s “Who are we? The challenges to America’s national identities.” From this point of view, there is only one way to become a true American, by speaking English, cooking Turkey with stuffing and gravy and topping it with cranberry sauce on Thanksgiving and by praying to a Judeo-Christian god. This idea of a single-culture America no longer makes sense in a world that is increasingly interconnected, where transnationalism is an emerging phenomena and where speaking more than one language is seen as indispensable for success in many professions.
Latinos are often talked about as an issue public, focusing on issues such as immigration and bilingual education. To some, it might be surprising that support for bilingual education is a contentious issue based more on identity and ideology than on the promise of creating a multi-lingual environment for children in American schools. Students of Latino politics easily recognize the issue-public approach as a misconception since Latinos are as American as all the other people living in this country when it comes to economic concerns, war, or natural disasters. Latinos however are still the face of immigration debate in the United States, showing how Latinos can shift from group-based to individual concerns depending on the context.
Less recognizable is the importance of multiple identities for Latinos living in this country. Earlier this year, an interesting event occurred in the London 2012 Olympics. Leonel Manzano raced from the back of the pack to claim a silver medal in the 1,500m race. After the race, his ran around the track carrying the red white and blue flag that matched the USA on his running bib, but he also carried a red white and green with an eagle devouring a snake in the middle (see the image here). This gesture went mostly unnoticed by the mainstream but was commented about in Latino circles and by Latino commentators. Was it a good or a bad thing that Manzano had celebrated with two flags when he was running for the USA and is a US citizen? Considering how he arrived illegally at age 4 to the US, it might make sense that he is a symbol of a culturally diverse America. But does carrying a Mexican flag make him a traitor or make him ungrateful to his adoptive country? In the view of some it did; in the view of Latino politics it exemplifies the growing importance of understanding the multiple identities from which Americans can draw from.
The Latino National Survey 2006 (Fraga et al. 2006) asked respondents to report the strength of their identity in reference to three concepts: (1) American identity,(2) Pan-ethnicity (feeling Latin/Hispanic) and (3) Home country identity (National Identity). The following graph shows how Latino identification strength varies along immigrant generation.
While the graph most likely generates more questions than it does answers, it is clear that increases in one identity are not at the expense of the other identities. As expected, American identity is quite low in foreign-born Latinos, but by the second generation, most Latinos strongly identify as American, Latin, and also with their compatriots. Interestingly, along with a decrease in home country identity comes a decrease in American identity in 3rd+ generation Latinos.
Latinos are not to be seen as outliers in the study of race, ethnicity, and politics from a political psychological perspective. In fact, Asian Americans might display even more contrasting identities that do not conflict with each other in many American political contexts (Espiritu 1993). Less is known about the political forces that might be able to link a specific identity to a political attitude or political party. Can political messages prime a given identity that can serve as a source of ambivalence or a wedge in minority voting behavior?
Furthermore, with all the contemporary changes in the American demographic landscape researchers face the challenge in defining crucial concepts such as acculturation, socialization, and incorporation. As researchers, it appears necessary to reformulate our understanding of identities in American politics. The nature of identities, their contextual salience, and even what counts as a socio-political identity is poised to become a major theme in political psychological research in American politics in the coming years.

(Kansas City, Kan., Aug. 31, 2011) Lindsey Construction Company, Inc., of Fayetteville, Ark., and one of its associated limited partnerships have agreed to pay a $430,000 civil penalty to the United States to settle a series of construction stormwater violations that occurred during development of The Links of Columbia, a nine-hole golf course and 64-building apartment project in Columbia, Mo.
Through a stipulation of settlement with the U.S. Department of Justice and EPA Region 7, filed today in U.S. District Court in Jefferson City, Mo., Lindsey Construction and The Links at Columbia, LP, agree to pay the civil penalty for violations of the federal Clean Water Act and terms of a construction stormwater permit issued by the State of Missouri.
The Links at Columbia, a limited partnership, was the developer for the Links of Columbia, a residential apartment complex in Columbia, Mo. Lindsey Construction Company, Inc. was the general contractor during construction of this development.
The Links of Columbia is a 118-acre development consisting of 64 apartment buildings, a 9-hole golf course and other amenities. Approximately 88 of the 118 acres were disturbed during construction.
The Stipulation of Settlement and Judgment requires The Links at Columbia, LP and Lindsey Construction Company, Inc. to pay a total civil penalty of $430,000. Construction is complete at this development and therefore the settlement does not include injunctive relief.
Discharges of stormwater runoff, including runoff from construction sites, can have a significant impact on water quality. Construction activities alter natural landscapes. During construction, earth is compacted, excavated and displaced, and vegetation is removed. These activities increase runoff and erosion, thus increasing sediment transported to receiving waters. In addition to sediment, as stormwater flows over a construction site, it can pick up other pollutants such as trash, petroleum products, chemicals, solvents, asphalts and acids that may also contribute to water quality problems.
Sediment can kill fish directly, destroy spawning beds, suffocate fish eggs and bottom dwelling organisms, and block sunlight resulting in reduced growth of beneficial aquatic grasses.
In addition, sediment can impact the treatment of drinking water resulting in higher treatment costs, and can result in the loss of drinking water reservoir storage capacity and decrease the navigational capacity of waterways.
The proposed settlement, lodged in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Missouri, is subject to a 30-day comment period and final court approval. Information on submitting comments is available at the U.S. DOJ website. | 2019-04-21T22:19:21 | https://www.epa.gov/enforcement/links-columbia-lp-and-lindsey-construction-company-inc-settlement |

Teachers and staff in Charlotte Public Schools will join educators across Michigan wearing red shirts to show support for public education on Wednesday – two weeks after being threatened with disciplinary action for participating in the statewide show of solidarity.
School employees at hundreds of buildings across Michigan have held similar events on Wednesdays this May – often joined by their district’s principals, superintendents and school board members who are also concerned about our state’s broken school funding system.
Early this month, local union leaders told Superintendent Mark Rosekrans about plans to wear red shirts during Wednesdays in May – inviting administrators to participate – and he told Davis those wearing a red shirt would get a written warning in their personnel file.
When CEA members went ahead with plans to wear red on Wednesday, May 9, building administrators took pictures of teachers wearing the shirts, some with lettering that read, “Support Charlotte teachers as we support your students,” according to MEA UniServ Director Yvonne Briley-Wilson.
In addition, that day at least two local leaders experienced unannounced classroom observations while wearing the shirts.
The staff was frightened but undeterred, according to the local president and other teachers interviewed for this story. “We’re unified, we stand together, and we support public education,” Davis said.
Upset by the memo – which constituted an attack on protected union activity – staff members across Charlotte’s five buildings wore blue shirts on Thursday, May 10, but delayed a planned walk-in on the following Wednesday until a general membership meeting could be held to allay fears and gauge interest.
Teachers in the district want to communicate a sense of urgency about issues facing educators in Charlotte and in many schools across the state and country, “so we can work collaboratively to solve them,” Davis said.
Educators in the district say school staffing has been cut to the bone. Without adequate paraeducators, social workers, and counselors, teachers are left without the support they need to manage difficult behaviors and differentiate instruction to the needs of students.
Behavior systems that should be developed and implemented school-wide are left to individual teachers to figure out, those interviewed said. In addition, the district eliminated a classroom for students with Emotional Impairment (EI), so those children remain in general education classrooms and resource rooms ill-equipped to address their needs.
Across all grade levels, school employees have seen their supply budgets shrink. Teachers interviewed for this story say they spend hundreds of dollars buying basic items for their classrooms, including books, paper, pencils, crayons, disinfectant wipes, and tissues.
And the substitute teacher shortage means faculty members routinely lose planning time filling in for absent colleagues. Title I specialists and “encore” teachers – who provide classes such as art and physical education – often sub instead of providing targeted services to students.
At the same time, the district has built up a fund equity – or rainy day fund – nearing 20 percent. The state recommends that districts hold at least 5 percent of funds in reserve. The district should not be banking money when needs are high and unmet, Davis said.
“We have a pool of money that’s not being utilized the way it was meant to be,” she said.
School employees have creative ideas, and they want to be part of a collaborative effort to solve problems, the teachers said. | 2019-04-22T14:10:10 | https://mea-retired.org/announcement-archive.php?id=266 |
The Bible tells us that God is love. John emphasizes just how important this aspect of God’s nature is in 1 John 4. He says that if we don’t love then we don’t actually know God. God is so defined as being love that if we have a relationship with Him, we will love as well. It is a wonderful idea to contemplate.
It is not that God shows love or God is able to love, but He is love. Love is central to God’s identity. What’s more, there are a number of Greek words that John could have used to say love in this context. He chose agapos. It is a word that means an unconditional, self-less love. It is the love of a parent for a child or a husband for his wife. God is also limitless and eternal so His undeserved love is also boundless and never-ending. | 2019-04-23T06:50:06 | https://calvarycatonsville.org/god-is-love-calvary-catonsville/ |

When the water heater fails, things can come to a standstill in your home – no showers, no laundry, the dishwasher doesn’t work, etc. The good news is that the most common water heater problems can be repaired quite easily either as a DIY project or by a local plumber. They include a leaking pipe connection, failed heating element, or a failed thermostat.
This house repair guide provide tips for trouble-shooting problems with your electric water heater (click here for gas water heaters) and instructions for making the repair. The tips will prove helpful whether you do it yourself or need to discuss the repair with a plumber. Electric water heater repair costs are included. In addition, we list the tools and parts you’ll need for a DIY fix and cover costs of hiring a professional for the work. Tips for saving money on the work are included, and this post ends with a list of further resources you will find helpful for this common home repair.
The first step, of course, is determining what’s wrong with the unit. If it’s leaking from the bottom, we’ll say right now, it is time to replace the water heater (you may have to lift the carpet to for check water stains) If it’s not making hot water, that can be remedied.
Here are the costs for the supplies and tools we’ve mentioned. We also look at professional repairs to your water heater.
DIY Electric Water Heater Repair Costs: Keep in mind that you’ll be working on an electric device, and water may be present too. If you don’t have experience working on electric appliances, don’t risk injury; Call a professional!
Professional Electric Water Heater Repair Costs: Most plumbers charge a minimum service fee of $175 to $185, and that might cover minor repairs. If an element needs to be replaced, it will likely cost more.
If you have a friend with experience with these repairs, ask for help to save money. When choosing professional repair, the best way to save money is to get several estimates for the work. Call several plumbers, and ask about their minimum service fee and typical fees for making the basic repairs listed here.

I think they Heyward discussion has played out, so I won’t go there, aside from saying that I wanted to re-sign him.
We didn’t though, so what’s next?
I heard an Alex Gordon rumor, and on the surface, that seems like a solid idea, but he’ll be 32 by the time the season comes around, and I’m concerned we’ll be paying for the decline phase of Gordon’s career. He also missed time due to injury last year, so his health as gets older might be a concern as well. Still, he’s a four time Gold Glover. Those Gold Gloves were earned in left field, not right though. With Matt Holliday entrenched in left for a little while longer, can Gordon transition to right without an issue?
Then there’s the matter of the kids.
When we re-signed Brandon Moss, we formed a first base platoon with him and Matt Adams which ensured that Stephen Piscotty won’t get much playing time at first. If the kid plays (and he should) it’ll be in the outfield. with Holliday, Piscotty, Randall Grichuk and Tommy Pham, we still have four solid outfield options, even without Heyward (and Jon Jay).
Instead I think we should target Justin Upton. He’s 28, and would replace Holliday’s offense. He’s not in the Heyward/Gordon category with the glove, but the offense makes it worth it.
It might create a jammed outfield for a year, but once Holliday’s team option is declined, we’ll have a nice, young outfield that’ll be set for a few years.
It’s not likely to happen, as Upton will command more money and years, but I hope it does. | 2019-04-25T04:16:52 | http://www.cardsconclave.com/2015/12/13/so-what-next/ |

You might remember the pictures and video I shot of muRata Boy and Girl at CES earlier this year. If you liked those robots you will love the robot that Masahiko Yamaguchi built. This Bipedal Cycling Robot is quite small but when it comes to robotics small is usually more challenging. This tiny robot drives the bike just like a human does! Watch the video below to be blown away.
Thanks for the tip Erik.
That was really really impressive!
And it also has part cute factor build in as well.
This is really nothing short of amazing! In fact, if I remember anything from learning to ride a bike (admittedly, some 40 years ago, so I’m probably missing some important parts of it by now 🙂 ), then starting and stopping was the hardest part, not even so much the riding in and of itself. And the little robot seems to have no trouble starting and stopping whatsoever!
I looked really hard but could not really catch the moment it lifts its feet off the ground and catches the pedals. Does it require the pedals to be in a particular position for that? Does not seem like it – it just stops and then picks right from there, so even if the pedals are carefully positioned, it’s not too obvious. If I had to program the robot, I would have no clue as to even where to start the sequence of moves to put the feet on the pedals if they were positioned at random – looks like so much can go wrong that it most likely will.
Anyways, this is a great find and an amazing feat of robot motion programming (to say nothing of the balance feedback of course – but that’s a whole separate story)! | 2019-04-23T03:53:22 | http://hackedgadgets.com/2011/11/22/bipedal-cycling-robot/ |
Randers is a city in Randers Municipality, Central Denmark Region on the Jutland peninsula. It is Denmarks sixth-largest city, with a population of 61,163. Randers is the municipalitys main town and the site of its municipal council. The municipality is also a part of the East Jutland metropolitan area, which has 1.2 million inhabitants.
By road it is north of Aarhus, east of Viborg, and northwest of Copenhagen.
Randers became a thriving market town in medieval times, and many of its 15th-century half-timbered houses remain today, as does St Martins Church, also from that period. Trade by sea was facilitated through the Gudenå River, entering Randers Fjord. During industrialization, Randers quickly became one of the most important industrial towns in the country, but it saw itself outpaced by the cities of Aarhus and Aalborg at the beginning of the 20th century. Most of the larger historic industries in Randers are gone today. From 1970, the population saw a decline from a peak of 58.500 citizens, until a stabilization in the 1990s occurred, followed by a modest rise since then.
The main tourist attraction is Randers Tropical Zoo thanks to its artificial rainforest, the largest in Northern Europe, its 350 varieties of plant and over 175 species of animals. The citys football team, Randers FC, play their homes games at the AutoC Park Randers, and are in Denmarks first league, the Superligaen. The town is also home to Randers rugby union club and Jutland RLFC, a rugby league team, as well as Randers Cimbria, a Basketligaen team that took 2nd place in the 2013-2014 season. | 2019-04-23T00:28:56 | http://vilnius.escort-europe.com/escort-Randers/ |
Divest Cornwall Councils holdings in Fossil Fuels by 2020, and reinvest such that Cornwall really can live up to its potential as a renewable trendsetter for the UK.
Further background information: 195 nations have agreed (at COP21 in Paris, December 2015) that to increase global temperatures beyond 2 degrees celsius would be CATASTROPHIC. This means dramaticly cutting our our carbon emissions, and keeping most of the known fossil fuels in the ground - Watch this for the IMPERATIVENESS of the situation: "Do the Math" at http://math.350.org/ bear, and this "Al Gore, Why I am optimistic about Climate Change" at https://www.ted.com/talks/al_gore_the_case_for_optimism_on_climate_change for an injection of impetus!
Quite apart from the moral imperative to look after the planet that is our home (and that of the children of all species - not just our own!) Fossil fuel investments are losing value, and, according to many analysts, are on the verge of haemoraging. The governor of the Bank Of England has suggested divesting from fossil fuels as a wise financial move, and the Rockefeller foundation - founded upon fossil fuels, recently announced that they are divesting.
"The leading argument by financial analysts is that, with emerging regulation to curb global temperature increases and growing competition from low-carbon energy sources, there is a real risk of “stranded assets” and “unburnable carbon”.
To grasp the seriousness of the climate crisis, you just need to do a little maths: Fossil fuel corporations have 5 times more oil, coal and gas in known reserves than the most conservative climate scientists think is safe to burn. Therefore we have to keep at least 80% of their fossil fuels underground to keep the earth in anything resembling livable shape.
By selling off their shares in fossil fuel companies, large institutions, like Cornwall Council, can use their financial clout to prevent such exploration from occurring, and help to keep the "oil in the soil, and the coal in the hole"
If you want more detail: at current levels of Carbon dioxide emission, we have less than 15 years before crossing a dangerous threshold (2 degree celsius rise in global temperature) that almost every government in the world has agreed would be unsafe.
We humans have already raised the temperature .8°C with the carbon dioxide already emitted, and that has caused far more damage than most scientists expected. A third of summer sea ice in the Arctic is gone, the oceans are 30 percent more acidic, and since warm air holds more water vapor than cold, the climate dice are loaded for both devastating floods and drought.
Scientists estimate that humans can pour roughly 565 more gigatons of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere and still have some reasonable hope of staying below two degrees. Computer models calculate that even if we stopped increasing CO2 levels now, the temperature would still rise another 0.8 degrees above the 0.8 we’ve already warmed, which means that we’re already 3/4s of the way to the 2 degree limit.
I've read Jeremy Leggett's book (it's a free download) and I'm convinced that the time has now come to get rid of investments in these things. Public and pension funds are at risk if they are invested in an increasingly unwanted commodity.
Obsesssion with the profit gained from fossil fuels obstructs research and development in renewables. | 2019-04-19T18:29:51 | https://campaigns.gofossilfree.org/petitions/divest-kernow |
Discussion in 'Commuting' started by goo_mason, 27 Jul 2007.
Passed a bloke on a recumbent zipping along in the opposite direction this morning near the bridge over Crewe Toll. First one I've seen since I started commuting in April last year.
Not only can I not afford one (which is the most significant factor) but I wouldn't be able to take it on the train either.
I wouldn't mind the stares of wonderment from passers-by, but I wonder what impact the lower riding position would have on my visibility and ability to manouver in heavy London traffic.
You can rent then from the The Bicycle Works in Argyle Place (although I can't find anything about it on their web site). Also check out Laid Back Ligfiets who do a guided tour on recumbent bikes in Edinburgh.
Never seen a single recumbent on my Derby commute all the years I've been doing it.
One passed me on the Tissington Trail this week though!
I'm sure people can probably guess/already know my feelings on recumbents, so I'll not bother to state them again.
Now, let me guess..............................................No, give up!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Well, seeing as you really want to know...they're a deathtrap.
You can't see where you're going as well as on a normal bike, not to mention the fact that you're so much lower down so people can't see you.
They're more unstable - your centre of gravity is lower down, so minor adjustments in your horizontal position don't work as well.
They're unhealthy / unergonomic: you're constantly having to bend your neck forward to see what's ahead - can't be healthy on the spine or neck. Plus, your legs are pointing forwards when doing work - making your legs work under decreased bloodflow is harder and can't possibly be healthy.
And please don't say "but you haven't ever ridden one bonj" because I have once ridden one, that a mate had inherited from somebody and was selling but before he did asked me and a few others if we wanted to come round and have a go on it for a laugh. Needless to say I fell off it several times trying to go round his yard and up and down his road, but managed to get going for a bit. Even so, I judged it to be a work of absolute crapola.
Well in the end we get to the truth, you couldn't ride it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Visibilty is again a unfounded worry. I am taller on my street machine than many children an a few women riders on DFs. What is important is sensible riding. Providing you are not undertaking artics and other silly antics, you will have no problems.
Most drivers should be looking a hundred yards ahead for road markings, bollards etc, all of which are lower. At the distances drivers should be looking height is not a factor.
The ones who "don't see you" are the same ones who don't see ANY bike!
As with any bike it is simply acquiring the skills. A recumbent handles as well in most cases as a DF. If you have problems "nipping through a gap" then shouldn't one be querying the wisdom of the move rather than the ability of the machine?
I have no more problems with maneoverability or stability than with any other machine In fact the Trike is outstanding in both cases.
Also don't forget a lower CoG will make the bike safer in a fall as there is less distance and hence less impact!
They're unhealthy / unergonomic: you're constantly having to bend your neck forward to see what's ahead - can't be healthy on the spine or neck. Plus, your legs are pointing forwards when doing work - making your legs work under decreased blood flow is harder and can't possibly be healthy.
You don't need to bend your neck anywhere on a street designed machine. Even on my Hurricane this is not he case and that is a "low rider". As above, you are under far less strain with flexion than with the extended neck required on a mountain bike or racing machine.
As for the leg position, this is a benefit. That is why all gyms have recumbent cycling machines!. The fact that you can use bigger muscles as you can lock your hip into the seat makes the potential power output greater.
Like with any development in fitness the body will compensate, and there is no problem with the legs adapting to this position. The resultant increased blood flow actually makes this position more efficient - again try and find a gym without a recumbent machine!
Each one is completely different in design, handling, use and comfort. Using a single one to decide that it is "Crapola" is like driving a 1970's Skoda and then declaring that a modern luxury car is rubbish.
PS - they even go off road on hill tracks across the Pennines!
So which one are using off road?
That is the Street Machine, dual suspension and a comfortable hard seat.
The Hurricane is too low (not for safety, but because your buttocks get stung by nettles) and the Catrike too wide for some tracks. As I said above the Linear is now 25 years old and comes out fro the occasional rally rather than a daily use machine.
Last week I passed two recumbents and three unicycles. Haven't seen the rowing machine bike man in a while, hope he's okay.
Why is is that some of us see something new and think "Cool!" and some others automatically crawl back under their rock muttering...?
According to wikipedia they've been around since the mid 19th century - I wouldn't call that 'new'. Still haven't taken off.
Apologies. By 'new' I meant 'new to our personal experience', but you are right, they've been around a while.
Not taken off eh? What exactly do you mean by taken off? I mean we all know the world has to bend to your logic, so what do recumbents have to do to 'take off'. One owned by every cyclist? One in every household? Why not just admit that some people like them and have them - either exclusively or together with uprights, a lot of people would like one, but can't afford one, or don't have space for more than just one bike, and a lot of people who've never seen one look at them and say "That's cool!".
You stick to what you like, and stop telling other people what's good and what's bad, especially on subjects you know nothing about. | 2019-04-22T18:55:21 | https://www.cyclechat.net/threads/first-recumbent-on-my-route.804/ |
Now is the perfect time of year to get ahead of yourself and start pulling together your 2016 plan. If you are committed to developing a new intranet next year or drafting your continuous development programme, then dedicating some time to intranet planning is essential for you. To support you, we have created a bank of free training material “Uncovering your intranet opportunities” which you can access as you need to.
If you have been given the responsibility of delivering a new intranet, first things first. You need to make sure you have the team you need to make this happen. For larger organisations a dedicated Intranet Manager is a great investment as these days continual intranet development is becoming standard practice.
Intranet governance is something that needs to be addressed but will become clearer as you work through the earlier stages. How you manage your intranet in terms of content management, development and usage will determine its future success. | 2019-04-25T20:05:49 | https://blog.sorce.co.uk/your-guide-to-intranet-planning |
If you’ve gone on interviews for IT jobs, you probably already have at least a general idea of what you should be doing. Maybe you learned these job interview do’s from your IT staffing firms and technical recruiters, or maybe you learned them from some of your own online research. No matter where you learned these do’s from, there are some nuances you may not know about. Here are some subtleties of interview do’s that your IT staffing agencies and IT recruiters want you to know.
Firstly, you know the general rule is to dress well for job interviews. However, it’s also important to dress well for the company’s culture. Particularly in IT, dress codes can wildly differ. Talk to your IT recruiting firms about exactly what you should wear to your interview. You don’t want to just assume you should come in a suit. It may cost you the job.
Secondly, you probably already know no to badmouth a boss or former company to your interviewer. What you may not know is to extend the same rule to your colleagues and coworkers. If you trash talk your current or previous coworkers, hiring managers may wonder if you’re actually a team player or able to work well with others. Do yourself and your IT recruiting agencies a favor: don’t lie, but do avoid saying anything unfavorable about your former or current coworkers, employers, or bosses. By keeping their reputations pristine, you do the same for your own.

Hermann Kohlstedt is Professor of Nanoelectronics at the Engineering Department of the Christian-Albrechts University (CAU) Kiel, Germany. Prior to this appointment at CAU, he was leading a research group from 1991 to 2009 at the Research Center Jülich, Germany that focused on advanced electronic device concepts and associated materials-processing issues. From 1986 to 1989 he worked at the Institute for Millimeterwave Radiostronomy (IRAM) in Grenoble, France and received his PhD in Physics from the Kassel University in 1989 on superconducting tunnel junctions for heterodyne receivers. From 1990 to 1991 he held a one year appointment at the Advantest Corporation in Sapporo, Japan.
His representative work includes metallic and complex oxide superconducting -, magnetic – and ferroelectric tunnel junctions in the frame work of transport properties and thin film analysis. In 2005/06 he was on sabbatical at the Materials Science Department of the UC Berkeley and the Advanced Light Source (ALS) at the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, USA. Since 2009 he is working in the field of memristive device for neuromorphic circuits and he is spokes person of the DFG (German Research Society) Research Unit RU 2093 entitled: “Memristive Devices for neuronal Systems”. He authored and co-authored more than 170 papers in peer-review journals.
His research interest covers the field of novel electronics devices from device fabrication, thin film analytics to electrical characterization. Examples include the study of non-linear dynamics of interlayer fluxon (soliton) interactions in stacked superconducting tunnel junctions and the memristive electronic transport in multiferroic tunnel junctions. His main research aims are memristive devices for non-volatile memories and neuromorphic circuits. Especially the experimental realization of time-varying, pulsed-coupled bio-inspired neuronal oscillator networks, comprising signal delay and variable coupling strengths (via memristive devices) attracted his research interest over the last years.

We store our travel trailer at a local mini-storage lot. This beast sits right next to our rig. The owner and I bumped onto each other one day when we were both on the lot.
"Try not to scratch the side of my police car when you're backing that trailer into your slip," he'd joked. I told him I'd do my best not to damage the fascinating patina. He laughed, then went on. "I'll bet you're wondering why anyone would bother to store a POS like this one, right?" I demurred.
"I bought it for the engine," he said, "I was going to put it into an old Charger I was restoring; but stuff happens, and I haven't worked on that project for several years. I've held on to this baby because maybe someday I'll get back to that project...besides, I'm locked in to a pretty good rate for this space, and someday may need to move something else into it."
There are parallels, I've decided, between this little episode and the manner in which I've approached my blog over the last five months: (1) I haven't actually abandoned it, but haven't maintained it in a long time; (2) my enthusiasm for working on it has waned; and (3) the cost of keeping it in "storage" on the 'net has not been prohibitive.
The main factor driving the months of "storage" (aka neglect) can be traced back to early April, when I completed the first rough draft of the Bretz book. "Rough" is too kind a word, frankly. As I studied the pile of ghastly pages, it became clear that I'd fallen out of love with the topic. The geological aspects seemed to have some life left ini them; but the recounting of Bretz's career, both the early and late stages of it, suffered from terminal dullness. Bretz himself - as vibrant and interesting a character as any biographer could ever hope for - had become a tired and cranky old man, the kind no one wants to listen to or deal with. I could hardly bear to read it, and I could not bear to fix it. Instead, I decided to park ALL the writing, then poured my energies and intellect into enjoying to the utmost my wonderful wife and family. It was an excellent decision - this has been one of the most enjoyable periods of my life.
I've suffered from "writer's block" on more than a few occasions, and know that the only way to get past that blockage is to write on. Pound the page relentlessly enough and the muse will return. But this latest phase - this nearly total lack of vibrancy in the manuscript - is not blockage, so much as it is a loss of enthusiasm for the story. While blockage may bring a halt to the writing, it usually will not kill it completely. But, for me at least, writing requires a level of enthusiasm that is hard to describe and harder still too manufacture. And without it, the story dies.
Later this month I will spend a couple days with the draft and see how it feels to read it with an eye towards resuscitation. Fall is upon us, and Mr. Gray will soon be showing up for his five month stay. It will be easier to fight off what sometimes feels like late-onset ADHD and stay here at this keyboard by then. Perhaps I'll be able to recapture that lost enthusiasm and get back to putting an old hulk of a draft to some good use. | 2019-04-19T10:33:00 | https://watershedevents.typepad.com/watershedevents/2018/09/self-storage-lot.html |
Internet at work has been severed.
IWETHEY Home / IWETHEY Board / Stupid PHB Tricks Forum / Internet at work has been severed.
Because of the latest Windows virus. Seems they're worried that the virus will get emailed to some of the UNIX boxen... and.. well, I've not quite gotten an answer to what, but somehow, there's "propagate and spread".
So the firewall and router guys have gone through all the routers (around the US) and chopped (just about) everything off.
The virus wasn't a Denial of Service, but... If you jump off the network... does that mean you win and not being denied service?
"Look at me, brain the size of a planet, and they have me filtering by protocol."
Idiots. Surely they don't mean Code Red or SCam?
I remember living through that.
About the best I and my boss could do was tell anyone who would listen that the powers that be wouldn't listen to us, since we were the ones who were employed to be the authority on that kind of thing. Made 'em look pretty silly among the peons.

Reuters names Fraunhofer among the top 3 of the publicly funded R&D institutions. Among the top three Fraunhofer is the institution that provides evidence for the strongest commercial impact due to its unique working model.
When it comes to the publicly funded organizations most likely to change the world, Fraunhofer comes on the top of the list. On its Top 25 Global Innovators list, Reuters identified and ranked the 25 publicly funded institutions doing the most to advance science and technology. Besides being on the top of the list for developing technology that can help fuel private industry, Fraunhofer also stands out for its commercial impact, evidencing the influence of basic research on commercial R&D activity.
The results were obtained by analysing the number of patents and published research papers from the past eight years.
The globally operating Fraunhofer-Gesellschaft, with its headquarters in Germany, is Europe's largest applied R&D institution, represented in Portugal also with its Research Center for Assistive Information and Communication Solutions (Fraunhofer AICOS).
The “Fraunhofer Operational Model”, also followed by Fraunhofer AICOS for eight years, consists of achieving a well-balanced project mix, with one third of revenues from direct industry contracts, and one third of national/international R&D Programs.
With a team of close to 100 people, distributed between the Porto and Lisboa offices, Fraunhofer AICOS is focused on Ambient Assisted Living (AAL) and Information and Communication Technologies for Development (ICT4D), offering innovative solutions for industry clients in Portugal and on an international level.
Fraunhofer AICOS’ goal is to develop Remarkable Technology, Easy to Use, therefore contributing to the population’s quality of life. | 2019-04-20T12:30:30 | https://www.aicos.fraunhofer.pt/en/news_and_events_aicos/news_archive/older_archive/reuters-names-fraunhofer-as-one-of-the-world-s-most-innovative-r.html |
I see Dr. Barry Lance. He's an endocrinologist. I see him for my thyroid. I last saw him about six months ago.
He's a nice doctor and gives you a lot more information about problems with your thyroid and what to look for. He'll talk to you about your condition and explains things. I don't feel like he makes you come for anymore visits than you have to come to.
I have a low thyroid.
My experience went really well. He is very concerned with the patient in front of him not with just working on the patient. He is very knowledgeable and if he doesn't know something he will go out of his way to find it. | 2019-04-25T15:12:32 | https://www.angieslist.com/companylist/us/md/columbia/lance%2C-dr-barry-k-reviews-1355589.htm |

How many dumbbells do you need to store? The first question might yourself is how large your rack needs to be, and its dimensions are mainly determined by how many dumbbells you need to store. If you have a large array of different loads, then you might need a pretty large rack, whereas if you have only a few different sets you could be able to buy a much more compact rack. Adjustable dumbbells specially require only a very little rack, as most people only need a single pair. As a general rule, the larger the dumbbell rack, the greater expensive it will be so think carefully about how large your rack truly needs to be. As well as the number of dumbbells it needs to store, check that the existing dumbbells will suit within the holders the best way to do this is to measure the diameter and length of the dumbbell handles and check that they will fit inside into the rack holders.

The evidence may not matter to some liberal secularists. They have proven they are not resistant to making faith-based political arguments themselves.
I am asking you not to focus so narrowly on what you take to be the logical implications of revelation. That is what critics of fanaticism have been doing for centuries. Look at the historical record of the past century as Mormons have entered national politics. Is there evidence of manipulation? Consider the Church’s own renunciation of control over the consciences of Mormon politicians–a stand Catholics have not taken. Are you saying this is a false front? Keeping in mind the injunction in Mormon scripture to submit to lawful government, is there any real basis for concern?
One thing I think Damon Linker got right is that the potential negative reaction to a candidate’s Mormonism is not limited to evangelical conservatives. Thinking about those voters alone, however, I wonder if Romney would be better off if the Mormon church did not present itself as Christian. The suspicion of heresy seems to be part of what riles people up; it wouldn’t be present if Mormonism were just another religion.
Well, yes and no. It bothers Christians that Mormons claim to be Christians (with the probable implication that they are more or less just like all other Christians, only better Christians and not apostates) while holding what are clearly stunningly heterodox beliefs, but what bothers some Christians just as much are the beliefs themselves. For Christian voters, for whom a candidate’s faith is an important element of why they choose to support or oppose him, someone who is an infidel is hardly to be preferred over a heretic, though there will probably be strong opposition to either one. Were the LDS to say, somewhat improbably, “We’re not at all Christian the way everyone else is Christian and we’re proud of it,” it would not make LDS beliefs any more acceptable to those who already find them troubling. Earlier today I was commenting on Prof. Nassif’s article that referred to “the Great Tradition.” By any reasonable definition, that Great Tradition does not even encompass Assyrians and non-Chalcedonians, much less Mormons. I think you could reasonably expect a number of conservative Christians, and not just evangelicals, to view with skepticism the candidacy of any self-styled Christian who does not belong to “the Great Tradition.” Someone might object that this approach would also compel many religious conservatives to look askance on the candidacies of other non-Christian candidates, but I assume that is rather the whole point of this controversy. | 2019-04-20T06:53:14 | http://larison.org/2007/01/05/more-mormons-2/ |

Tuna is not only delicious and a great substitute for other meats but it has amazing health benefits. The health benefits of tuna fish include its ability to reduce cardiovascular conditions, stimulate growth and development, lower blood pressure and cholesterol levels, and help in weight loss. Tuna also has the ability to boost the immune system, increase energy, maintain the health of the skin, increase red blood cell count, prevent cancer, protect against various kidney diseases, reduce general inflammation, and inhibit cell membrane damage. You can read more about these benefits on a great post from Organic Facts.
Which tuna should I buy?
Many people are already aware of some of cautions when choosing tuna. It has been found that farmed tuna fish (and all farmed fish) can have many harmful additives. This includes antibiotics, pesticides, Dibutyltin (a chemical used in PVC plastics), Dioxins, and can be harmful to the environment. You can read more about the harmful potentials of farmed fish from Dr. Axe’s post. Wild caught tuna may be more expensive upfront but is worth it for the flavor, quality, and health benefits. I’ve found amazing wild caught tuna at the local co-op!

The old adage “use it or lose it” tells us: if you stop using your muscles, they’ll shrink. Until recently, scientists thought this meant that nuclei—the cell control centers that build and maintain muscle fibers—are also lost to sloth.
But according to a review published in Frontiers in Physiology, modern lab techniques now allow us to see that nuclei gained during training persist even when muscle cells shrink due to disuse or start to break down. These residual ‘myonuclei’ allow more and faster growth when muscles are retrained—suggesting that we can “bank” muscle growth potential in our teens to prevent frailty in old age. It also suggests that athletes who cheat and grow their muscles with steroids may go undetected.
Syncytium. Sounds like a neo-noir comic book series. It’s actually a special type of tissue in your body, where cells are fused together extra close—so close, that they behave a like a giant single cell.
“Heart, bone and even placenta are built on these networks of cells,” says Lawrence Schwartz, Professor of Biology at the University of Massachusetts. “But by far our biggest cells—and biggest syncytia—are our muscles.” Like the Sin City series, it appeared at first that everything was black and white with syncytia.
This assumption long seemed valid, with many researchers reporting the presence of disintegrating nuclei in muscle tissue during atrophy induced by inactivity, injury or paralysis. But modern cell-type-specific dyes and genetic markers have shown that the dying nuclei other researchers had detected were in fact inflammatory and other cells recruited to atrophic muscle.
The new evidence paints a very different picture of muscle syncytium.
This suggest that once a nucleus has been acquired by a muscle fiber, it belongs to the muscle syncytium—probably for life. But Schwartz, for one, is unsurprised by the new findings.
Since myonuclei are the synthetic engine of muscle fibers, retaining them should enable muscle size and strength to recover more quickly after one of these insults, and help to explain the phenomenon of ‘muscle memory’.
As such, the findings have important implications beyond understanding muscle biology.
The findings also support frequent drugs testing for competitive athletes, with permanent bans for proven steroid cheats since they will benefit from the steroids long after their use has ended. | 2019-04-19T02:55:03 | https://sciencebulletin.org/muscle-memory-discovery-ends-use-it-or-lose-it-dogma/ |

On Saturday, the 19th of August, I ascended and descended from Borah Peak. I believe that, in the process, I must have quit about twenty times. What a time for a guy pushing 55 (better than pushing daisies). As I expected, descending the mean 30 per cent grade was as difficult or more so than going up. I ended up losing both big toenails coming down. If you are going to climb in tennis shoes be sure that your nails are trimmed very short ahead of time or the mountain will do it for you.
There were roughly 100 folks on the mountain that day, most much younger than I but a few just about my age. Strangely, I took too much water with me, about two gallons, and ended up drinking too little, about six pints. Chicken-out Ridge was not the chore that I expected but was rather quite easy, though I can understand that those with more than a healthy fear of heights might be uncomfortable.
The real difficult part was the final climb up the scree. Combine it with the altitude and it takes a lot out of an individual. I met folks from Maryland, Utah, and Idaho, with others from many other locales I am sure.
I had asked a couple of young guys if I could accompany them at 0400 but they did not awaken me. I left at 0500 and got to the top 30 minutes after they did. They were surprised and apologetic. At the finish line, I realized that the seat of my pants was air conditioned. I am sure that more than a few got a laugh out of that! I guess all the sliding down the scree had exposed my hind quarters a bit. All told, I was just over five hours up and just under five hours down. | 2019-04-20T12:31:49 | http://www.cohp.org/id/Custer_4.html |

When it’s time to sell your home, there can be some confusion when determining the value. If you REALLY want to know what it is worth, you can pay to have an appraisal done. An agent should be able to provide you with detailed CMA reports, letting you know what is going on in your neighborhood. Knowing the differences in these home values can set you set your ideal asking price!
Setting a great asking price is critical. You do not want to set it too high and have to repeatedly lower it to get buyers in the door. Your pricing history is public information, and repeatedly lowering your price can make buyers think there is something wrong with it. And for obvious reasons, you don’t want to set your asking price too low. To get the price you want you must exercise patience and make sure you are working with a true professional in . | 2019-04-21T14:12:24 | https://www.houseo.com/blog/market-value-vs-assessed-value-lake-zurich/ |

Is Sleep the Key to Better Heart Health?
Maintaining a healthy heart is more than just eating right and exercising. Did you know that too little – or too much – sleep affects your heart, too?
Studies show that not getting enough sleep or getting poor-quality sleep on a regular basis increases the risk of high blood pressure, heart disease and other medical conditions, like stroke, obesity and diabetes.
More than 40 million people in the United States suffer from chronic sleep problems and 60 million additional adults are plagued by insomnia. Add another 18 million Americans who have sleep apnea and you’ll see that sleep deprivation is a major issue in the US. Too little sleep is defined as less than six hours of sleep each night. “Sleep disorders have many negative effects on the body, and a significant impact on heart health,” said Shelby McNinch, BS, MS, RN, with the cardiac rehab team at Carolinas HealthCare System’s Sanger Heart & Vascular Institute.
Sleeping too little is bad for overall health, but sleeping too much may also be dangerous. It’s also associated with a higher risk of heart disease and obesity, diabetes and depression. Too much sleep is often defined as nine or more hours of sleep each night.
“Sleep is thought to give your heart its much-needed rest,” said McNinch. “It keeps your vascular system in shape and gives your whole body time to make repairs from damage caused by things like stress, which also contributes to cardiovascular disease.” Sleep apnea is a serious condition that affects both your sleep and health. While you are sleeping your throat becomes blocked. This causes you to stop breathing for short periods of time. In order for you to breathe, your body will wake up briefly. This cycle happens repeatedly throughout the night and can cause problems such as feeling tired during the day, and having issues with memory and concentration. Even more seriously, sleep apnea can cause other problems such as heart disease, high blood pressure and stroke. Snoring is an indicator that you might have sleep apnea. It is important to speak with your physician if you snore. | 2019-04-18T12:26:24 | https://atriumhealth.org/dailydose/2015/02/17/sleeping-for-heart-health |

I’ve been formulated to create awesome results on brunettes, blondes and all hair colours in between. I’m quick and easy to use. Blend me on, wash me out.
This highly pigmented product works on all hair colours. The improved formula creates vibrant colour with less dust.
Think of the original formula like an eye shadow and my new formula as more like an eye shadow crayon.
Apply me by holding strands of hair against the shadow with your thumb. Apply in long even strokes for the root to the ends. For the best results apply the colour and then blend it in with fingertips. Apply blend then build colour to achieve the desired intensity.
Using a silicon based finishing product before application can minimise colour staining and a light misting of hairspray before you leave the house can limit colour transfer.
Shampoo to remove. Any residual colour can be removed using a shampoo bath. Simply lather your hair up with cheap shampoo (the cheap stuff is more anti colour) and leave for five minutes or so before rinsing. | 2019-04-19T02:15:56 | https://briteorganix.com/products/new-hair-shadow-pink-1 |

As a Facebook page manager for a range of brands, I know one thing is important; to drive likes, shares, and comments. And the primary goal for most page managers is to stimulate a conversation on your brand’s Facebook page by posting engaging content.
You may have seen those popular cat photos or funny images with a witty caption that keep getting recirculated online, those are some of the popular memes seen today. A meme is defined as a unit for carrying cultural ideas, symbols, or practices that can be transmitted from one mind to another through writing, speech, gestures, rituals, or other imitable phenomena, according to Wikipedia.
“We used the results of this survey to build a new machine learning system to detect content defined as high quality. The system uses over a thousand different factors, such as how frequently content from a certain Page is reported as low quality (e.g., hiding a Page post), how complete the Page profile is, and whether the fan base for a particular Page overlaps with the fan base of other known high quality Pages.

Ok I take it all back, I was wrong. Tiger team is great. I thought it would be all style and no substance or really boring. But actually its very short (less that 20mins a episode) cut together into a reasonable paced documentatry. Its split into 5 pieces including part 4 the heist (yes 2 members of the camera crew do follow them into the heist) and part 5 the debrief. Its actually all good stuff and you get a good balance of social enginnering and computer exploits. For example they use a USB trojan and some social engineering on a receptionist to gain access to the internal network. Theres some technical material details but not enough to bore most people and maybe not enough to really be used for copycats. For example they don't say which software there using or how they pick locks. There's alot more analysis on the show in the Schneier blog post about the series. I wonder what some of these people would say about the real hustle?
The first episode was good but the second one really good because you could really see that it was a real challenge and they almost got caught too, which adds to the suspense. I really don't hope they don't cancel this series before it plays out.

Framingham State University Students, "15" (2019). Napkins Against Hate. 15. | 2019-04-24T10:04:09 | https://digitalcommons.framingham.edu/napkinsagainsthate/15/ |
As the tactical plans were taking shape, the divisions slated for the Saipan operation began training for the impending battle. Ships were summoned to Hawaii to carry the invasion force to its destination. While the Americans gathered strength for the massive effort to seize the Marianas, the enemy looked to the defenses of the Central Pacific. In Hawaii, Marines and Army infantrymen practiced landing from LVTs in preparation for the Saipan assault. At the objective, Japanese troops were working just as hard to perfect their defenses.
The Marine and Army units selected to conquer Saipan underwent training in the Hawaiian Islands designed to prepare them for combat in the jungle, cane fields, and mountains of the Mariana islands. The scope of training matched the evolution of tactical plans, as individual and small unit training gave way to battalion exercises, and these, in turn, were followed by regimental and division maneuvers. The 2d Marine Division, encamped on the island of Hawaii, did its training in an area that closely resembled volcanic Saipan. After its conquest of northern Kwajalein, the 4th Marine Division arrived at the island of Maui to begin building its living quarters and ranges--tasks which coincided with training for FORAGER. Both construction and tactical exercises were hampered by the nature of the soil, a clay which varied in color and texture from red dust to red mud. The 27th Infantry Division, on the island of Oahu, emphasized tank-infantry teamwork and the proper employment of JASCO units during amphibious operations. The XXIV Corps Artillery was in the meantime integrating into its ranks the coast artillerymen needed to bring the battalions to authorized strength, conducting firing exercises, and learning amphibious techniques.
On 17 and 19 May, the two Marine divisions took part in the final rehearsals of Northern Troops and Landing Force. The first exercise, conducted at Maalaea Bay, saw the Marines land on the beaches and advance inland, following the general scheme of maneuver for the Saipan operation. The second rehearsal was held at Kahoolawe Island, site of a naval gunfire target range. Although the roar of naval guns added realism to the exercise, the assault troops did not go ashore. After the landing craft had turned back, shore fire control parties landed to call for naval salvos against the already shell-scarred island. The 27th Infantry Division completed its rehearsals between 18 and 24 May. The independent 1/2 and its reinforcing elements climaxed the training cycle with landings at Hanalei Bay.
Since there was not enough time to obtain replacements for the lost mortars, Admiral Turner decided to rely on the scheduled rocket barrage by LCI(G)s for neutralization of beach defenses. He ordered those LSTs and the LCT that carried the heavy mortars and their supply of ammunition to unload upon their return to Pearl Harbor. As the mortar shells were being put ashore, tragedy struck again.
men "were not trained to carry out the functions of those lost."4 The destroyed ships, equipment, and supplies were replaced in time for the LST convoy to sail on 25 May, just one day behind schedule. The lost time was made up en route to the objective.
The movement of Northern Troops and Landing Force plus the Expeditionary Troops reserve from Hawaii to Saipan was an undertaking that required a total of 110 transports. Involved in the operation were 37 troop transports of various types, 11 cargo ships, 5 LSDs, 47 LSTs, and 10 converted destroyers.5 Navy-manned Liberty ships, vessels that lacked adequate troop accommodations, were pressed into service as transports for a portion of the 27th Infantry Division. LSTs carrying assault troops, LVTs, and artillery from both Marine divisions set sail on 25 May. Two days later, transports bearing the remainder of the 4th Marine Division and Headquarters, Expeditionary Troops departed, to be followed on 30 May by elements of the 2d Marine Division. Because of the shortage of shipping, portions of XXIV Corps Artillery were assigned to the transports carrying the assault divisions. Garrison units and Expeditionary Troops reserve were the last units to steam westward.
The transports carrying the Marines sailed to Eniwetok Atoll where they joined the LST convoy. Here additional assault units were transferred from the troop ships to the already crowded landing ships for the final portion of the voyage. One observer, writing of the journey from Eniwetok to Saipan, has claimed that because of the overcrowding, "aggressiveness was perhaps increased," for "after six crowded days aboard an LST, many Marines were ready to fight anybody."6 By 11 June, the last of the ships assigned to stage through Eniwetok had weighed anchor to begin the final approach to the objective. Meanwhile, the vessels carrying the 27th Infantry Division had completed their last-minute regrouping at Kwajalein Atoll.
to attack in the afternoon. A fighter sweep conducted by 225 planes accounted for an estimated 150 Japanese aircraft on the first day, this insuring American control of the skies over the Marianas.
Seven old battleships with 11 attendant cruisers and 23 destroyers relieved the fast battleships on 14 June to begin blasting Saipan and Tinian. The quality of the bombardment improved, but all did not go according to plan, for the neutralization of Afetna and Nafutan Points proved difficult to attain. Although aircraft assisted the surface units by attacking targets in the rugged interior, the preliminary bombardment was not a complete success. The size of the island, the lack of time for a truly methodical bombardment, the large number of point targets, Japanese camouflage, and the enemy's use of mobile weapons all hampered the American attempt to shatter the Saipan defenses.
The heavy naval and air bombardment directed against the Marianas were only a part of the preparations decided upon for FORAGER. Wake and Marcus Islands had been bombed during May in order to protect the movement of Admiral Turner's warships and transports. Bombs thudded into enemy bases from the Marshalls to the Kuriles in an effort to maintain pressure on the Japanese. Finally, on 14 June, two carrier groups cut loose from Task Force 58 to attack Iwo Jima, Haha Jima, and Chichi Jima in the Volcano-Bonin Islands. These strikes were designed to prevent the enemy from making good his aerial losses by transferring planes from the home islands to the Marianas by way of the Bonins.
Like the attacking Americans, the Japanese defenders were completing their preparations for the Saipan landings. Fully alerted by the air and naval bombardment, the Saipan garrison realized that it soon would be called upon to fight to the death. Lieutenant General Hideyoshi Obata and Vice Admiral Chiuchi Nagumo awaited the arrival of the Marines so that they could execute their portion of the A-GO plan, which called for the destruction of the invaders on the beaches of Saipan.
Truk, had responsibility for the defense of the Marianas. The work of building, improving, and maintaining the island fortifications was the task of the 5th Base Force and its attached units, the 5th Communications Unit and 5th Defense Force. Logistical support of the Marianas garrison was turned over to the Fourth Fleet Naval Stores Department and the 4th Naval Air Depot, both located at Saipan. Originally the Marianas forces were to strengthen the defenses of the area and ready themselves for a possible war, but once Japan had begun preparing to strike at Pearl Harbor, the 5th Base Force received orders to lay plans for the capture of Guam.
War came, Guam surrendered, and the Marianas became a rear area as Japanese troops steadily advanced. Since Saipan served primarily as a staging area, a sizeable garrison force was not needed. In May 1943, when the Gilberts marked the eastern limits of the Japanese empire, only 919 troops and 220 civilians were stationed on Saipan. As American forces thrust westward, reinforcements were rushed into the Marianas area.
During February 1944, Kwajalein and Eniwetok Atolls, both important bases, were seized by American amphibious forces. Within the space of three weeks, Saipan became a frontline outpost rather than a peaceful staging area. That portion of the 5th Special Base Force13 located at Saipan, a contingent which now numbered 1,437 men, was too weak to hold the island against a determined assault.
Nagumo's command, however, was an administrative organization unable to exert effective tactical control over the Thirty-first Army, the land force assigned to defend the various islands in the Marianas, Bonins, and Palaus. Initially, Nagumo was appointed supreme commander throughout this sector, but Headquarters, Thirty-first Army objected to being subordinated to a naval officer. By mid-March, Nagumo and Lieutenant General Hideyoshi Obata, the army commander, had sidestepped the issue, each one pledging himself to refrain from exercising complete authority over the other.
This revision of the Central Pacific command structure reflected the increasing concern with which the Japanese high command regarded the defenses of Saipan and the other islands which lay in the path of the American offensive. Between February and May, two divisions, two independent brigades, two independent regiments, and three expeditionary units were rushed to the Marianas to form the Marianas Sector Army Group of Obata's Thirty-first Army. Naval strength in the islands was augmented by the arrival of the 55th and 56th Guard Forces17 as well as antiaircraft and aviation units.
The submarine campaign did not reach peak intensity in time to prevent the Japanese from building airfields throughout the Marianas. By June 1944, Guam boasted two operational fields and two others not yet completed, Tinian had three airfields with work underway on a fourth, and both Rota and Pagan were the sites of still other flight strips. At Saipan, the old Aslito airfield, now less important than the new Tinian bases, was capable of handling extensive aerial traffic. One emergency strip was built near Charan Kanoa, but another such field, begun at Marpi Point, was as yet unfinished. Work on land defenses, however, was not as far advanced as airfield construction.
Those beaches judged best suited for amphibious landings were guarded by powerful forces backed by comparatively feeble local reserves. A short distance inland, the enemy had prepared a second line designed to contain penetrations of the coastal perimeter until a counterattack could be organized. A tank regiment shouldered the main burden of eradicating any American salient, but Obata also held out four rifle companies and two shipping companies as a general reserve to join in counterthrusts, When the Japanese commander turned his attention to the rugged interior of Saipan, he discovered himself to be short of critical building materials, vital time, and necessary engineer units. The invulnerable fortress depicted by Obata was not fully realized, but he nevertheless selected certain redoubts, most of them in forbidding terrain. If the Americans smashed the first two lines, caves, gorges, and dense thickets would have to serve as pillboxes, antitank barriers, and barbed wire.
On 13 June, Admiral Jisaburo Ozawa led his Mobile Fleet, the A-GO striking force, from Tawi Tawi toward the Marianas. The Yamato and Musashi, with their attendant warships, steamed northward to a refueling rendezvous in the Philippine Sea, where they would join Ozawa's armada. Nimitz' blow at the Marianas caught the enemy somewhat off balance, for the ships dispatched toward Biak and the planes massed in the Palaus and eastern Carolines would have to be redeployed if they were to take part in the scheduled annihilation of the American expedition. The shifting of the A-GO battlefield from the Palaus northward also forced Ozawa to steam a greater distance, pausing en route to refuel at sea. Yet, an American attack on the Marianas was not unexpected. A-GO could succeed, provided the Saipan garrison held firm and the 500 land-based planes promised to augment Ozawa's carrier squadrons actually arrived in the Marianas.
On 14 June, in the midst of the holocaust, Admiral Nagumo issued a warning that "the enemy is at this moment en route to attack us." He went on to predict that American amphibious forces would land no later than July.
After pointing out that the Marianas were the Japanese first line of defense, he directed each man to "mobilize his full powers to annihilate the enemy on the beach, to destroy his plan, and to hold our country's ramparts."27 Along the western beaches of Saipan, members of frontline units were better informed than the admiral, for they could see the buoys which were being set out to aid in controlling the next day's assault.
The Saipan garrison had suffered from the preliminary bombardment, but the defenders were willing to fight. If humanly possible, they would defeat the Marines on the beaches. In the meantime, Ozawa's ships were beginning their voyage toward the Marianas. The portion of A-GO that called for aerial surface, and submarine attacks on the advancing American convoy had already gone awry. Possibly, the attackers could be wiped out before a beachhead was established. If not, merely by holding for a comparatively brief time, Saito's men might nevertheless set the stage for a decisive sea battle.

Yes… 2% of 400 Million users is 8 MILLION users.
This was apparently the number of users that deleted their accounts over the lack of trust issues, privacy issues, and other security related issues on Facebook … 2% of Facebook users.
I am sure the users that deleted their accounts didn’t feel like they accomplished nothing.
If nothing else, they proved that Facebook wouldn’t care about 8 MILLION users being concerned about dangerous security/privacy/trust related issues at Facebook.
You are about to remove this information.
Like I really care about that. I didn’t fill them out anyway.
I posted that on my Facebook page too.
However, if they keep this crap up, I will just disable my account again and they won’t be able to force those stupid ads on me anymore.
As my Jim says, “The only winning move is not to play” and he doesn’t. And I play very little, and only because of my family and friends….some of which are so into the stupid gaming and apps crap which is why I have made my profile so private in the first place and don’t use anything but Facebook apps, no third party apps at all.
Facebook is something nice enough, but I can still be in contact with friends and family without them and it looks like that will be happening soon, very soon if my guess is right. | 2019-04-26T01:47:01 | https://bambismusings.wordpress.com/category/facebook/ |
Since our son was born we've always have Christmas at our house, apart from one Christmas when we decided to eat Christmas dinner at a local hotel.
Needless to say the Christmas offering at the hotel wasn't great. The veggie option felt like it was added to the menu last minute because they had to have one and it was a real disappointment.
The meal started with a delicious butternut squash soup which was the highlight of the meal and it all went downhill after that. Having Christmas dinner at home is definitely the best option.
So every November I sit down and plan Christmas dinner. It always takes a fair bit of thought and planning. When you're vegetarian or vegan you really need to be creative to present something special. Once I've decided what I'm cooking I can set it aside and concentrate on all the other things that happen at Christmas, the shopping; wrapping gifts; decorating; baking and all the fun events.
Lets make Christmas dinner easy!
Let me take the stress out of Christmas for you this year.
I'll pulled together lots of easy recipes for you to try this Christmas. They've all been tested on my family and have photos and simple instructions, with no fancy ingredients.
There are a selection of both vegetarian and vegan dishes for starter; main course; sides; sauces & dressings; dessert; sweet treats; soft drinks and cocktails.
Just open the recipes you'd like to try and print them out to take into the kitchen this Christmas. If there are any you aren't sure about, try them out before Christmas day and remember I am always happy to help if you need any tips. You will find my email in my about me page under the banner.
Have yourself a Very Veggie Christmas from my home to yours.
Check out this Drinkaware Vegan Guide to make sure the spirits you are using a vegan.
Make a list. Add all the things you need to prepare and buy for Christmas. Tackle the list a little at a time.
Set a budget and try to stick to it. Over-spending will make you feel stressed.
Don't try to be perfect, just keep things simple and try to enjoy Christmas. It's all about spending time with family and friends.
Plan your Christmas dinner as soon as possible and try out anything you aren't sure about before Christmas Day.
Make things easy and plan Christmas dinner with a mixture of ready made dishes and homemade dishes. This way you'll have more time to spend with your guests on the day.
Have a look on Pinterest for table setting and decoration ideas.
Start a Christmas folder, either online or in a ring binder or box. Print out your recipes and save them in your folder with notes and any ideas you've collected.
Stock up on plenty of gift wrap, ribbons and sellotape in advance, so you don't have that last minute panic.
Build some fun things into your list. Take time out to visit seasonal displays and take part in fun Christmas activities, but have some time off from Christmas too. When it becomes too much, have a long bubble bath, read a book or watch a movie.
I hope my Christmas recipe guide has given you lots of inspiration for planning a veggie Christmas. My main Christmas dinner tip is to try and prepare as much as you can the day before so you just have to prepare the vegetables and gravy on the day while everything else just needs heated up.
I hope you have a really happy and food filled Christmas with some time to just sit back and relax too.
I will be adding to this guide as I create more Christmas recipes in the run up to the big day, so do bookmark or favourite this page to come back to for fresh ideas. | 2019-04-24T01:50:30 | https://www.tinnedtomatoes.com/p/veggie-christmas.html |
Plalam, the acronym of plastic and sheet metal, is a global brand, synonymous for over 50 years of coated and chemically colored metal laminates.
The innovative ideas, the construction skills and the experience accumulated in the building sector allow Dante Robbiati to patent and manufacture this product in the 60's.
The success of the product will lead in the seventies to the construction of the production site in the Marche, in the province of Ascoli Piceno. Following the enlargements of the eighties and the complete automation of the early 2000s, they consolidated the use of Plalam on consumer products, such as home appliances, furniture in large retail outlets and computer components. | 2019-04-26T06:22:48 | https://plalam.it/en/about-us |

With Christmas just days away, a few events have passed by to mark the countdown. The recent winding up of the Dewan Undangan Negeri 17th Session last November included the Ahli Yang Berhormats (Legislative Assembly Members) wishing one another a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year 2013, a Christmas Charity dinner and weddings.
Sarawak (and Sabah if I may say) is seen as unique in this regards as we have large community of Christmas holidays celebrating communities (thats a mouhful word). They are no strangers to the 'Ho Ho Ho Merry Christmas' holler of the famous Santa Claus and are used to the 'A Child is Born' hymns irregardless of ethnic or religious backgrounds. As the idea of Santa Claus may be unacceptable to some quarters (reason that he dilutes the real meaning of Christ's birth) to the wearing Santa's cap, what may I ask is left untouched of the Christmas spirit? I am zeroing in on the Christmas tree of course.
Much akin to the 1Malaysia logos and symbols one sees around, the presence of Christmas trees functions as a fun reminder that Christmas is near. They become part of the decos in shopping complexes, more so to beef up sales accompanied by catchy Christmas songs. Homes will also have these trees of various shapes and sizes lighted up with dizzying blinking lights.
Now back to Nadai nama Nama's topic. So how does Kuching fare this year with regards to Christmas 2012 mood. Moving around the City at random, I usually like to associate this City with the cat due to its name, and I immediately headed to that famous cat statue near the Padungan roundabout. It is usually decorated to coincide with meaningful occasions and festivals. However this year it failed to shine so I won't feature it in this blog....not this week anyway unless some spark of creativity improves its appearance. That kitty there now just looks....duh....dull.
Two notable large and tall Christmas trees have been put up in the public for drumming up the mood. One I manage to see is the multi-corporate sponsored tree at tHe Spring Kuching and the other one is the X Pax sponsored tree in front of Plaza Merdeka, Kuching. Its colourful nature can be appreciated mostly at night when its lighted up. I have yet to get the one in Pullman Hotel Kuching as its worth mentioning due to its charitable nature. I will try to get that in an Instangram soon.
So people, amidst this Armageddon hype on 21 Dec 2012 that people keep talking about, I wish you a very Merry Christmas and hopefully I can get to say that on Christmas day too. | 2019-04-25T14:36:04 | http://www.desmondjerukan.com/2012/12/christmas-trees-in-kuching.html |

The Predators will open the Stanley Cup playoffs at home next week with two games against an undetermined opponent.
The tremendous success of the Predators’ unexpected Stanley Cup Final run last season can be tied to its novelty.
Nashville embraced the team like never before. With each passing playoff series, fan support swelled and captured international attention. Watch parties outside Bridgestone Arena, which began as respectable gatherings attended by diehards, ballooned into Broadway-clogging events.
"I really think last year was a lightning-in-a-bottle kind of thing," said Scott Barry, better known by his wrestling-inspired "Ultimate Predator" alter ego. "It was the first. There were a lot of firsts happening, and everybody wanted to be a part of the first and wanted to be a part of the excitement."
Last year, the Predators unexpected Stanley Cup run saw a lot of fanfare. This year, the team is looking to go even bigger to surpass expectations.
That's the challenge that the Predators have long been preparing for. How will they create similar buzz when the playoffs start next week now that an expectation has been set?
"There's no doubt matching last year is going to be hard," Predators president and CEO Sean Henry said. "But it's also why we're probably investing two-and-a-half times what we did last year into our game entertainment. ... We're going to be doing some things that I don't think have been done before in our sport."
Henry didn't divulge any specifics, but hinted at an impressive pregame presentation that will be capped off each night by the return of star-studded national anthem performances.
Carrie Underwood, the first of 11 high-profile country artists to sing last season, promised “great surprises" in an email to The Tennessean earlier this week.
"The only way I can think to make it bigger and try to keep that attention span is to make it bigger," Barry said.
Most importantly, the Predators are better this season, which should generate more excitement at the outset of the postseason.
The Predators were an eighth-seeded underdog last season, starting each of their four series on the road.
As they prepare for their regular-season finale against the Columbus Blue Jackets on Saturday, they've already clinched the NHL's best record and home-ice advantage throughout the entirety of the playoffs.
The Predators will host Game 1 at Bridgestone Arena on either Wednesday or Thursday against the Colorado Avalanche or St. Louis Blues.
"We can put on a great show, but the real show happens when the puck drops," Henry said. "This is the most talented team we've ever had. There are two things that are slightly better than last year going for us — the team we have on the ice (and the fact) we've all walked through this experience now." | 2019-04-21T20:38:40 | https://www.tennessean.com/story/sports/nhl/predators/2018/04/06/nashville-predators-prepared-recreate-stanley-cup-playoff-buzz-after-winning-presidents-trophy/474790002/ |

(We expect children to wear suitable clothing for school activities and would ask you to support the school in this area).
School shoes: These must be black school shoes. In the summer, suitable white, navy or black sandals may be worn, but not flipflops, or sandals with heels or open toes.
We ask all parents who send their children to our school to support the school uniform policy. We believe that parents have a duty to send their children to school correctly dressed and ready for their daily schoolwork. One of the responsibilities of parents is to ensure that their child has the correct uniform, and that it is clean and in good repair.
If any parent would like the school to modify the uniform policy, they should make representation, in the first instance, to the headteacher. The school welcomes children from all backgrounds and faith communities. If there are serious reasons, for example on religious grounds, why parents want their child to wear clothes that differ from the school uniform, the school will look sympathetically at such requests. | 2019-04-22T16:13:51 | http://www.thorpe-lea.surrey.sch.uk/school-uniform/ |

However, this insularity and conceit was not peculiar to Bundaberg Hospital — the inquiries triggered by the scandal found Queensland Health sorely wanting in its stewardship.
But now all this has changed!
At a recent meeting in Brisbane, the closing address was given by a high-ranking Queensland Health bureaucrat. Her speech had a mea culpa theme, and sought forgiveness for past bureaucratic inadequacies. We were told that Queensland Health had turned over a new leaf, and would put serving the public and health professionals first! The values of caring for people, leadership, respect, integrity and public service were all codified in a new Queensland Health code of conduct.
However, scepticism pervaded the meeting. Old heads were well aware that reforming a bureaucratic culture will require more than a new code of conduct. Burning questions are: Who will ensure bureaucratic accountability and transparency? Who will ensure that the health bureaucracy will not slip back into the old habit of believing that “they know better what is good for the people than the people know themselves”? Who will ensure that they serve the public rather than their political paymasters?
It remains to be seen whether the Queensland Health promise to listen, care and act for people and health professionals is more than the usual bureaucratic rhetoric. | 2019-04-25T14:20:16 | https://www.mja.com.au/journal/2006/184/3/health-bureaucracy-promises |

Since moving to FrogLearn in November 2014, we have set all homework electronically, either via a homework site or 'Quick Assignment'. The original motivation for this was to develop a whole school strategy for using the VLE to support teaching and learning and improve the quality of homework being set.
it is much easier to distribute resources with the tasks, whether they may be documents, images, audio files, web links, etc.
to identify areas of best practice and areas for development, subject leaders can use 'Assignment Monitor' to view what homework is being set across their department.
As a Lead Practitioner for the development of New Technologies, I am also in charge of monitoring the quality of homework across the whole school. FrogLearn has helped me in two ways to do this. Firstly, I can monitor the frequency of homework being set by comparing the work set via Frog to the whole school homework timetable. I do this by exporting the data in 'Assignment Monitor' as a CSV file and then importing it into an Excel spreadsheet template. This allows me to see how much homework any particular department has set, against what is planned on the homework timetable.
"I can see what the teachers have set"
The second way that Frog allows me to monitor the setting of homework is by allowing me to follow the complete homework cycle i.e. to see what the teachers have set and then compare it to what the pupils have handed in.
'Assignment Monitor' allows me to find any task set in the school and open the assignment. I then look at the work that a sample group of pupils has produced and identify areas of best practice and areas where the task could be improved. Areas for improvement may include suggesting ideas about how staff might use other features within FrogLearn to develop the task even further. For example, there may be opportunities for the pupils to collaborate with each other on a task or contribute to a class discussion using a forum widget.
Setting homework on Frog has now become routine at Glenthorne and staff, pupils and parents are very supportive of the process. | 2019-04-25T16:55:12 | https://www.frogeducation.com/community/inspiration/case-studies/every-homework-planned |
The subject of Mercury in Childhood Vaccines has all the ingredients of a real horror story -- combining the devastating effects on neurological systems of children (including causing autism), and government Conspiracies.
Two articles are included below, both from Valeri Williams of WFAA-TV Dallas. In both cases, it became clear to objective authorities in the field that the use in Vaccines of thimerosal (derived from Mercury, possibly the second most deadly poison on Earth) was probably contributing to autism and neurological disorders in children, following required vaccinations of the children for their entry into public schools. Nevertheless, nothing was done by the government -- in particular, the United States Federal Drug Administration.
While the use of Mercury in Vaccines has now ceased production, vaccines may still exist in the marketplace. If concerned, read the below two articles, and thereafter take action by asking questions, being informed, and insisting on the avoidance of thimerosal at all costs. In fact, one might even avoid Vaccines in general, including Smallpox vaccines and anything smacking of Mandatory Vaccines. Any trust in the US FDA is misapplied.
For decades, half of all childhood vaccines contained a chemical preservative called thimerosal. It is made from mercury, one of the most poisonous substances on Earth.
News 8 has spent the past three months investigating claims that government regulators and some pharmaceutical companies knew of the dangers, but never told the public.
From the outset, it must be stressed that this report is not anti-vaccination. Every person interviewed for this story believes in the importance of having children immunized. Rather, the focus is on the possible link between thimerosal and neurological disorders.
But, can we unilaterally assume that vaccinations are good, when the government is this criminally negligent?
Before the 1990s, 1 in 10,000 children were diagnosed with autism. But in the past decade, as the government has increased the number of Mandatory Vaccines, some recent studies suggest the rate of autism has risen to 1 in about 250 children.
Dr. Boyd Haley is the Chairman of the Chemistry Department at the University of Kentucky. He’s one of the nation's leading experts on mercury poisoning and has studied thimerosal in vaccines.
Two years ago, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention conducted a study, which showed that three-month-old babies exposed to just 63 micrograms of mercury -- less than half of the aforementioned pin top -- were two-and-a-half times more likely to develop autism. The study is stamped “Confidential” and “Do Not Copy or Release”. Siegel says it was never made public because it was just a draft.
“Until they’re final, and are ready for publication, they’re always considered a draft, not to be widely distributed,” Siegel said. “This preliminary information could be distributed, and that could do harm”. So why was it marked “Confidential, Do Not Release”, rather than a simple “Draft”?
Subsequently, the CDC did release a report to the public, but the findings were much different. The new study was amended with different data which lowered the autism rate.
Dr. Sidney Baker has reviewed both reports. Baker has authored six medical books, and written scores of articles on childhood behavior and autism.
Baker is critical of the CDC study.
“I can’t imagine that smart people could possibly have re-arranged the data the way they were done, and represented the data the way they were done, without doing it on purpose and with the express purpose, as you say, of a coverup,” Baker said.
Baker treats hundreds of autistic patients each year from around the country. He suspects about half of the children he sees have been affected by thimerosal from their vaccines.
Baker said the CDC’s refusal to release raw data from the study for outside experts to evaluate - a standard protocol in medical research - is helping to fuel the controversy.
Under pressure from the American Academy of Pediatrics and the CDC, pharmaceutical companies agreed to stop manufacturing vaccines containing thimerosal in March 2001. But while production may have ceased, vaccine vials already containing Thimerosal were not recalled.
A very simple solution for parents worried about upcoming shots for children is to ask your doctor ahead of time for thimerosal-free vaccines.
It’s a question that has divided doctors, parents and government scientists for more than a decade: Do childhood vaccines or additives cause neurological damage?
Next month, a congressional committee will hear testimony on the subject. A California university has a huge government grant to research it. And the possible link has been the focus of a three-month News 8 Investigation.
At the center of the investigation: a preservative put into many vaccines. It’s called thimerosal, and it’s made from mercury, the second most toxic metal known to man. Uranium is the most toxic. For years, thimerosal has been extremely controversial because there were alternatives to preventing vaccine contamination. And, questions remain about how pharmaceutical companies conduct vaccine research and how the government regulates those companies.
Centuries ago, the shimmering properties of mercury captivated the philosopher Aristotle, who called it “quicksilver” - and the name stuck. Starting in the early nineties, government regulators dramatically increased the amount of Thimerosal exposure to babies by adding two new vaccines to the roster of mandatory immunizations children must have before enrolling in school.
The combination of the Hepatitis B vaccine and the HiB vaccine more than doubled the amount of mercury children. “If you take a ten-pound baby in, and it gets four shots on that one day, which is a common practice - that’s equivalent to giving a 100-pound person forty shots in one day,” said mercury expert Dr. Boyd Haley.
Haley has testified before Congress and the Pentagon as one of the nation’s leading experts on Thimerosal and mercury poisoning. The research he’s done at the University of Kentucky leads him to believe that some children are genetically predisposed to storing mercury in their brains.
It’s the cumulative effect of the mercury which Haley and other scientists say leads to neurological disorders, including autism.
The FDA questioned thimerosal’s safety again in 1982 - this time, noting that it was “not safe for ‘over-the-counter’ topical use because of its potential for cell damage.” Despite that evidence, however, the government regulatory committees did nothing to question its use in childhood vaccines.
Then, in November 1973, the company’s legal division suggested adding the statement: “Do not use when aluminum may come in contact with treated skin.” Aluminum is a compound added to many vaccines as a catalyst. But even with this warning, the government committees did nothing.
However, the government’s vaccine committee continues to insist that thimerosal has never been dangerous to American children. | 2019-04-21T02:48:01 | http://www.halexandria.org/dward052.htm |
