en | N/A | N/A | Of all the litigation that VDARE.com has embarked on since we realized that spending money on lawyers was our only alternative to being forced out of the public square (vs. PayPal, , Facebook, and others I’ve not written about yet), the case I was most confident about was . It stemmed from RINO Mayor John Suthers’ reckless 2017 proclamation that he would not extend city services, aka police protection, to VDARE.com’s proposed conference at the Cheyenne Mountain Lodge, which not surprisingly cancelled shortly afterwards. But there is overwhelming defend(Jared Taylor’s American Renaissance had already prevailed in court against the State of Tennessee’s parallel attempt to suppress its annual conference by charging it for police protection). Our first lawyer even exuberantly undertook to take our case on contingency—i.e., he expected to be paid out the extensive damages for which federal law provides in such civil rights cases. So I was surprised that Mayor Suthers did not immediately settle, thus arrogantly inflicting significant costs on his taxpayers (and of course us); and later that Magistrate Judge Kathleen M. Tafoya and District Judge Christine M. Arguello concurred in dismissing the case. However, I was absolutely thunderstruck when the U.S. Tenth Circuit Court of Appeals upheld this dismissal 2–1 on August 23, 2021 and also quickly refused our petition for an en banc hearing. (Our appellate brief is here.)at stake here—and not just for VDARE.com. As a noted First Amendment lawyer wrote me privately after the Tenth Circuit decision:
This is completely new. No local government in the American South was allowed to refuse to defend Civil Rights anti-segregation demonstrations in the 1960s.My particular fear, for this and other reasons: that FBI Director Chris Wray’s crazy assertion, after an entire summer of unchecked Black Lives Matter /Antifa riots, that “white supremacists” are the real source of “domestic terrorism,” which is already being used to suppress grassroots political dissent against anti-white Critical Race Theory in public schools, has also been propagated throughout the entire legal nomenklatura under the guise of their role as “officers of the court.”
If that’s so, any patriot who can be portrayed as pro-white aka pro-American will automatically be denied justice, regardless of the technical merits of the case.
None of that, however, appears to have inhibited Judge Hartz’s magisterial dissent. (For the record, he’s a George W. Bush appointee. His two colleagues who authored the majority opinion, Chief Judge Timothy Tymkovitch and Judge Gregory A. Phillips were, appointed, respectively, by George W. Bush and Barack Obama.)
Judge Hartz goes on to crush the defendant’s curious argument that Mayor Suthers’ outburst was itself protected by the First Amendment. He writes:
Judge Hartz then proceeds to the key issue:
He also repeated his disparagement of VDARE by stating he was “fairly confident” the resort “didn’t know the nature of VDARE” when it accepted the booking and added that businesses should not permit controversial speech because it would be bad for business:
Needless to say, we have no choice but to expend our money and resources in this attempt. For us, and for American patriots who want to protest their country’s destruction through post-1965 immigration policy, this is what the Chinese strategist Sun Tzu called “Death Ground”—we must fight, or we will be totally driven out of the public square.

en | N/A | N/A | New research has priced the financial implications for investors’ assets in different climate scenarios.
Investors must bear the costs of mitigating the climate crisis sooner rather than later if they are to avoid steeper financial downsides in the future.
New research published by not-for-profit investment research group the Thinking Ahead Institute (TAI) has calculated the economic costs and physical impact risks of climate change on financial assets across different temperature scenarios.
It found that investors could face a 50-60% downside to their existing financial assets if global temperatures increase by between 2.7°C to 3.6°C by 2050. In comparison, investing in the transition and limiting global warming to well below 2°C will restrict losses to around 15%, the report said.
The report added that it’s possible for the investment industry to influence the pace of the global climate transition by “appropriately repricing assets to reflect a well-below 2°C world”. Investors need to consider the potential changes in asset prices according to sustainability-focused policy, regulatory and technological shifts, which can be expressed as a percentage change to current asset prices in net present value (NPV) terms, it said.
The TAI analysis also underlined the importance of ambitious and fast-moving policy to ensure the world stays on track for a well-below 2°C temperature pathway.
The TAI refers to investment consultancy firm WTW’s Climate Transition Value at Risk (CTVaR) model, which measures how a company’s value will change if market expectations shift from a ‘business as usual’ mentality to fully embracing the climate transition. The CTVaR has estimated losses for global equity in a well-below 2°C scenario sit at -3%, meaning that the overall cost to current financial assets of transitioning the economy is around a 3% permanent reduction in equity values.
“The potential cost to financial assets of climate inaction meaningfully exceeds the anticipated costs of taking action to drive an organised climate transition,” the TAI report said.
Beyond the financial incentives, there are environmental and social benefits to acting investing in the transition now rather than later, the report said, such as contributing more positively to overall health and wellbeing, limiting population displacement, and protecting biodiversity.
Previous research by the TAI has highlighted the short-term challenges asset owners are contending with, which are taking resources and focus away from addressing longer term sustainability challenges, such as the cost-of-living, food, health and energy crises.
In February, the TAI’s Co-Founder Roger Urwin urged pension funds to put their net zero plans into action to meet their 2030 decarbonisation targets, noting that many of these plans are not yet “fit for purpose”.
The largest pension markets manage US$56.58 trillion in assets, a separate TAI report said, indicating the potential impact if pension funds price future climate risks accordingly and upscale their investments in solutions and transitioning assets.
To identify which assets are at most risk from climate change, investors are already seeking assurances from investee that companies have credible transition plans in place. New guidance on corporate transition plans has been recentlyUK’s Transition Plan Taskforce.
“[The TAI] findings should help investors understand that without significant efforts now to transition to a sustainable economic model, the associated physical risks driven by continuing emissions and climate change will potentially lead to major changes in global GDP and income levels in the coming century,” said Tim Hodgson, Co-Head of the TAI. |

en | N/A | N/A | classroom experiences are considerably different from the classroom that I experienced growing up. As I meet with teachers and students, it is not uncommon to discover that Web 1.0 and 2.0 technologies are being utilized routinely… many students are participating in webquests, sharing ideas in blogs, and presenting their projects in Prezis and PowerPoints. With its endorsement of STEM education, the Obama administration has created a venue for many districts to receive funds of support because many state and national organizations are setting aside funds to enable districts to provide classroom teachers access to technology such as interactive whiteboards (Smartboards), mobile laptop stations, class sets of mobile iPod Touches and iPads. As digital media is being embraced in classrooms, teachers are discovering that they no longer have to wait in line for the computer lab, nor do they have to sign out the overhead projector from the library. Rather, the exciting dilemma is slowly becoming – I have access to this powerful tool for teaching and learning, how can I leverage it so it will be a valuable and effective tool that is embedded in a constructivist lesson? Research is beginning to be more abundant when teachers are looking for ways to effectively utilize these tools. Banister (2010) has provided a great springboard of ideas for using the iPod Touch in k12 education. Let me briefly describe a few of her suggestions.
- Classroom media: Photos, Music, Movies, YouTube (TeacherTube) The iPod Touch offers opportunities to capture field trip experiences with its camera, access resources when they are needed (“just-in-time”) using pre-programmed data, as well as utilize podcasts, audio books, or video clips if there is wireless internet.
- Multiple Application Tools: Notes, Clock, Calculator, Maps The iPod
- The Internet in your pocket! The Safari browser App expands the use of the iPod Touch for classroom purposes. With wireless connection, teachers and students have access to most web content, although some media files with flash may not be available. Students even have the potential to have multiple pages open on their device. A benefit to research on the iPod Touch is that students cannot simply cut and paste into a Word doc. Additionally, it is possible, that due to space constraints, students may find it easier to paraphrase and consolidate the information on the iPod Touch into their own words.
In addition to providing teachers with an excellent tool for communicating with students, te:

•Platform as a Service (PaaS) includes spaces where documents can be held to be accessed at will. Examples of popular storage sites include Huddle, Wikispaces, and Dropbox.
Ove inquiry-based teaching in education. Inquiry-based experiences are multi-faceted activities that involve making observations, posing questions, researching literature, planning investigations, interpreting data, and supporting results. Inquiry requires students to identify assumptions, think critically, and consider alternative solutions – hallmarks of scientific reasoning. Hodson (2009) proposes that inquiry-based teaching strategies focus on preparing students to “think like a scientist” (p. 271) by asking questions, challenging claims, and expressing viewpoints.”

I am currently enrolled in a course where we are looking at course design and syllabi. There is so much to consider when putting a course together for academia. I understand the need for having students do more of the work than I do, but even the way that we look at designing the work is significant as we plan. I read a very good article by Elizabeth Davis and Marcia Linn. In this article they determined that inquiry has three kinds of questions that we should focus on to guide our students into deep, meaningful learning:

It’s the best APS-C camera to launch, mixing outstanding build quality, a pleasurable shooting experience, and class-leading image quality.

The struggles continued yet again the next week in the first half against lowly Washington State, raising a previously unfathomable question: could/would ASU bench their senior quarterback on Senior Day? |
en | N/A | N/A | Seria walked happily to a highly secure secret place for her hidden treasure which she just won. She spent quite a bit of effort trying to guess the sacred power from afar. She spent nearly an hour that way, and it was nothing short of exhausting.
However, when she actually held the holy relic in her hands, she felt like the fatigue accumulated was relieved.
As Seria stepped outside, Lesche was waiting for her with his back facing her. She almost called out his name out of reflex, but remembered belatedly where they were and shouted.
She ran to his side with a smile. Then she grabbed Lesche’s arm. He looked back at her and smiled.
It all happened so fast. Lesche grasped her chin and lowered his face and kissed her. A light kiss across the veil. It was just like that kiss before they entered the auction room. It was exactly the same.
Seria’s eyes widened.
She got goosebumps a beat later. The man wasn’t Lesche.
The man’s low voice was unusual. Seria mumbled as she looked at him .
The illegitimate son of the previous Grand Duke of Berg.
The man, no, Mies, lifted the veil off his face. He smiled brightly. His pale face was like a mask, but the smile on his face made her feel repulsed.
At the same time he laughed, Seria suddenly heard people screaming from the hallway. She looked sideways, startled, and was soon at a loss for words.
Where did they come from? The priests, dressed in black, were killing men passing through the hallway. Red blood splattered mercilessly on the walls and floor.
Seria turned to face the fallen corpses, but Mies grabbed her face and held her there. His eyes, similar to Lesche’s, looked pleased as he looked at Seria.
Mies lifted Seria’s veil up completely.The mask peeled from his hand and rolled across the floor. Mies smiled even more and leaned toward her.
At that time, deathly screams rang out from behind Mies.
Mies’ hands tighten around her waist.
Seria tried to steel herself as much as possible. Then she bit his earlobe as hard as she could.
Mies, with his earlobe severed, pushed Seria roughly with a fierce scream. Seria spat out the lump of flesh out of her mouth onto the floor, trying not to feel the flesh texture in her mouth as best she could. There was a strong smell of blood, and Mies’ blood flowed along her chin.
His eyes immediately fluttered.
It was Abigail, who grasped his hand as Mies came close to Seria. Abigail was wearing a dress that she had obviously never worn before in her life, and she bent Mies’ arms behind his back. Under the hem of her dress, instead of shoes, military boots were shining.
It happened in an instant. The dagger that Abigail took out from her pocket pierced Mies’ hand firmly. Mies tried to fight back but it was useless.
At that moment, there was a man in a dress who came running as he looked at Seria.
He quickly peeled off the veil he was wearing and wiped his mouth. He screamed the whole time.
That’s right. This man was Linon, Berg’s chief aide. He scratched his head and roared. Then he immediately went to the suppressed Mies… Dance shoes? Linon took off the dance shoes, lifted them in his hands, and jabbed Mies in the shoulder with the pointed, thin heel.
Seria didn’t know he could wear high heels so perfectly. Seria’s mouth hung agape. Mies seemed to be looking for his men with bloodshot eyes as he curled up on the floor.
But Mies’ hopes were soon dashed. For the Berg Knights had already rendered his men irresistible.
Seria walked over to Mies and crouched down. The front, sides, and back were all her people, so she had nothing to fear.
Mies couldn’t believe he was in this situation.
Seria couldn’t finish her words.
Alliot looked around at the huge auction house. It was this decadent building. It reminded him of being eaten by the naked lust that enveloped the air, making him feel more unpleasant by the moment.
After compiling the reports of the knights, Alliot went to Lesche to report. The floor was silk and the high quality shoes were tangled in a mess. The urgent report of the knight sounded like an echo in Alliot’s ears.
That nightmare from his childhood came to mind, and Alliot felt an inexplicable chill run through his body.
Ever since the Green Manor incident, Berg’s aides and the Knights had been working closely together in secret to capture Mies. But where did the information leak from, and they failed every time to capture Mies.
About two weeks ago, in a secret meeting where Linon only called Alliot, he hastily submitted his report.
Alliot was a little more annoyed by the speed of Linon’s head turning than by anything else.
On the one hand, Alliot thought this was his last chance. Mies had to be caughHe was not worried about Lesche, but Seria’s safety. Even as a child, Mies had always wanted many things that Lesche had.
Mies wanted Lesche’s title, his parents, and affection.
That was why he wanted Lesche’s wife too.
Linon didn’t say anything, but he must have had similar thoughts.
Every time Alliot walked, he could hear the scraping of steel. He glanced through the auction house.
An auction house where slaves with sorcerers’ background were the merchandise. In other words, it was rare to find a place where sorcerers gather legally like here. Maybe Mies went to the trouble of getting more sorcerers to the slavers for today.
For every handcuff and lock there is a key that fits.
If you want to catch a tiger, you have to make a trap, and the trap has to be placed on a path that the tiger frequents. Only then will it feel safe to crawl out.
This was too perfect a place for the Mies to delude himself into thinking it was his area. A place that would allow countless sorcerers in its intricate streets. He must have thought it was perfect just because it was a dark and glamorous place that was hard for the public authorities to subdue.
If Mies was a little smarter, he wouldn’t have fallen for this trap, but no one would be held accountable if the Berg family made a disturbance in this illegal auction house, and rather gained a command of breaking the underground market.
Alliot clenched his hand and released it, thinking about the Green Manor.
Mies. The b*st*rd son of the previous Grand Duke.
He was smart, unusual, mean, and sometimes inhumane… Alliot couldn’t even call him the second young master. Because Mies was not officially admitted to Berg. Nevertheless, how bright were the eyes that kept coveting more than that?
Alliot entered the Central Control. Lesche was already there with the knights. Elliot bowed deeply.
It was a smooth report, not bad.
It was a plan to capture Mies since they captured the sorcerers of the Green Manor alive.
Mies’ target was the circlet in the basement. For this reason, Berg had to wield the circlet in a very showy manner to attract Mies.
However, if Lesche appeared to have the circlet, Mies would not be able to approach it directly, even with his magic and manipulation. Even when he was treated as a Young Master at Berg Castle when he was a child, he pretended to look down on Lesche, but he was secretly afraid.
They needed to make Mies show up again.
So Lesche didn’t hide the fact that Seria was given the circlet as a gift and she was the Grand Duchess of Berg. It was a monster brought from the basement of the Green Manor, but if his wife wanted it as a gift, he could not help but give it to her.
Seria’s existing naughty image also played a part. She liked the circlet, and she asked Lesche to give it to her.
They put no small amount of effort into making sure that Mies was convinced of everything and showed up.
The result was that Mies was captured alive.
Lesche looked at the unconscious man on the floor at his feet. It was Mies. |

en | N/A | N/A | PIONEER SOUTHWEST ENERGY PARTNERS L.P.
Effective March 7, 2013, Pioneer Southwest Energy Partners L.P. (the “Partnership”) entered into new indemnification agreements with each of the independent directors of the Partnership’s general partner (each an “Indemnitee”). The current independent directors are Phillip A. Gobe, Alan L. Gosule, Royce W. Mitchell and Arthur L. Smith. The new agreements replace the indemnification agreements that all the independent directors previously had with the Partnership.
The Partnership reviews its form regularly and decided to enter into new indemnification agreements principally to update its form. A description of the new form of indemnification agreement is contained in this report and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the form of agreement that is filed as an exhibit to this report and incorporated herein by reference.
Each indemnification agreement requires the Partnership to indemnify each Indemnitee to the fullest extent permitted by the partnership agreement of the Partnership. This means, among other things, that the Partnership must indemnify the Indemnitees against expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, penalties, fines and amounts paid in settlement that are actually and reasonably incurred in an action, suit or proceeding by reason of the fact that the person is or was a director of the general partner of the Partnership or is or was serving at the general partner’s request as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation or other entity if the Indemnitee meets the standard of conduct provided in the partnership agreement. Also as permitted under the partnership agreement, the indemnification agreements require the Partnership to advance expenses in defending such an action provided that the Indemnitee undertakes to repay the amounts if he ultimately is determined not to be entitled to indemnification from the Partnership. The Partnership will also make the Indemnitee whole for taxes imposed on the indemnification payments and for costs in any action to establish the Indemnitee’s right to indemnification, whether or not wholly successful.
In general, the disinterested directors of the Partnership’s general partner or a committee of disinterested directors have the authority to determine an Indemnitee’s right to indemnification, but the Indemnitee can require that independent legal counsel make this determination if a change in control or potential change in control has occurred. In addition, the Indemnitee can require the Partnership to establish a trust fund with a third-party trustee sufficient to satisfy the indemnification obligations and expenses if a change in control or potential change in control has occurred.
The indemnification agreements require the Partnership to continue director and officers’ liability insurance coverage for an Indemnitee for six years after the Indemnitee ceases to be a director, and they obligate the Partnership to procure up to a six-year run-off policy in the event of a change in control or termination of the person in the year following a change in control of the Partnership. The indemnification agreements also limit the period in which the Partnership can bring an action against the Indemnitee to three years for breaches of fiduciary duty and to one year for other types of claims.
Indemnification Agreement, dated March 7, 2013, between the Partnership and Phillip A. Gobe, together with a schedule identifying other substantially identical agreements between the Partnership and each independent director of the Partnership’s general partner identified on the schedule and identifying the material differences between each of those agreements and the filed Indemnification Agreement.

and before i go on-this has to go down as one of the worst EVER held
zero entertainment
so i`ll get to it shall i
a Colombian goalkeeper that was a total **** up
and a german that should have stuck to diving in the swimming pool
Group A-Italy-Czechoslovakia-USA-Austria
Group E-Spain-Belgium-Uruguay-South Korea
Group F-Republic Of Ireland-England-Netherlands-Egypt
opening game saw the 1986 winners Argentina against the africans From Cameroon
an ugly game full of nasty and bad tempered fouls by the Cameroonians(is that a word?)
a free kick is played into the Argies penalty box and a downward header by Omam-Biyik creeps over the line and yes the sent off Biyik and the scorer Biyik were brothers
after 89 mins following a shocking foul by Massing on Claudio Caneggia losing his boot in the process Cameroon were down to 9 men
they held on to create one of the w/c major upsets
Same old same old for the Scots
then the crunch game and a must win game against Sweden
Italy as hosts had a lot to live up to
manager Vicini making one of those substitutions he takes off Carnevale and throws on a guy by the name of Schillaci in the 75th min 3 minutes later he powers in a header to give Italy a 1-0 win pretty sure the whole of Italy breathed a sigh of relief
and after a tedious 1-0 against the USA Schillaci was given a start against the Czechs promptly scoring again.
the Czechs beat the USA 5-1 and Austria 1-0 and qualified
West Germany after beating Yugoslavia and the UAE 4-1 and 5-1 and a draw against Columbia made it into the next round they were joined by Yugoslavia and Columbia
Group E saw Spain defeat South Korea 3-1 and Belgium 2-1 to progress also through went Belgium and Uruguay
England?......had the usual hicup
leading after a Lineker goal after 10mins against the Irish a lead that was hardly threatened until the 73rd minute when Kevin Sheedy intercepted a weak England clearance to fire low into the bottom corner past Shilton
Ireland also after a drab 0-0 with the Egyptians faced the Dutch in their final group game
the Dutch take the lead in the 11th minute through Ruud Gullit
Ireland square it in the 71st minute and after a bizarre drawing of lots they qualify
Cameroon/Columbia-90 minutes of zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
extra time and suddenly something to cheer about yes a goal..scored by Roger Milla who then decided to do his best Disco dancing around the left hand corner flag what a mover he was
Cameroon were into the quarter finals
both were sent off and the sight of Rijkaard gobbing in Vollers mullet was disgusting not only was it spit it was one of those horrible green snotty types ewwwww Voller must have taken ages to wash that out
Yugoslavia needed extra time to see of Spain 2-1
apart from the Argies won a penalty shoot out 3-2 as i recall even the shoot out was boring
Ireland debut world cup adventure came to an end after a 1-0 defeat to Italy(yep he scored again)
and so to ..more or less the best game of this competition
25" a cross from the English left is headed in by Platt
61st minute Gascoigne conceded a penalty
4 minutes later the unthinkable happens Milla dances (literally) through the English defence slips in Ekeke who finishes past Shilton
83rd minute and with England running out of ideas Cameroon conceded a penalty despatched by Lineker
and so to extra time
England are awarded another penalty in the 105th minute again converted by Lineker
England see out the rest of Extra time and win a thrilling game 3-2
i watched the first half at home and went to the pub for the second half and how i escaped with my life that night i will never know
that man again puts the Italians in front after 17 minutes
Now The Fun Bit
England/West Germany
so to the game
and it wasnt a great game
a midfield battle neither side creating much
0-0 h/t
80th minute a cross from Paul Parker into the German box created mayhem Lineker fires in a shot that goes through a defenders legs and into the bottom corner...1-1
then came one of THOSE moments
one of those WERE WERE YOU WHEN...moments
anyway Gazza need not of worried after extra time the old penalty shoot out loomed
and after Thon had scored it was simple for Chris Waddle score or your out
Argentina from the start just want to kick/foul and stop the Germans from playing any way they could
65th minute Klinsmann decides to go eating grass after a challenge from substitute Monzon who gets a red card
85th minute Penalty to Germany put away by Brehme
87th minute after an altercation Dezotti is also shown a red card
and to bring this to an end
hopefully i`m keeping you lot entertained |
en | N/A | N/A | How the Orthodox Church Works
If you’ve ever wondered how the orthodox church workPersonal prayer, fasting, baptization, and encyclicals. And learn about the sacraments administered by duly ordained miniOrthodox Christianity.
In the Orthodox Church, personal prayer is part of a daily routine. The personal rule of prayer is patterned on the liturgical prayer and transforms daily life into an extension of the Liturgy. It is designed and administered by a spiritual father, usually a priest. Many laity also establish a relationship with a monk or nun who will serve as their spiritual father. The rule of prayer typically includes morning and evening prayers.
Orthodox Christians are trained to be competent intercessors before God through prayer. All their prayers are addressedFasting is a spiritual practice that is practiced by Orthodox Christians. This discipline focuses on the individual and the community, and the goal is to achieve a state of sanctification. Orthodox Christians may choose to fast on Sundays to avoid committing a sin or to devote themselves to the practice of fasting.
The orthodox church recognizes fasting as a powerful spiritual tool and has practiced itshould be understood that fasting has no value if it is not done for a higher purpose. Orthodox Christians often consider the concept of fasting as a way to combat passions and open the door to the renewal of the Holy Spirit.
Fasting is a sacred practice in Orthodoxy and involves a strict abstinence from food and drink. It is essential that a person be in a state of spiritual and physical equilibrium before participating in a fast. To accomplish this, the fast should involve both the visible and invisible nature of man.
Personal baptization
Personal baptization in the Orthodox Church is a powerful expression of faith in Christ. It is a life-affirming event for both the baptized person and his sponsor, also known as God-parents. Personal baptization is a process in which the Holy Spirit fills the soul and body of the person receiving the sacrament.
This process typically lasts a year. It begins with catechesis, which is conducted by the local parish priest. This catechesis is especially important for people joining the Orthodox church from another Christian confession. It involves a thorough examination of the catechumen’s faith and helps him understand the ancient faith. The catechumen also participates in the Mystery of Repentance and confesses his sins that separate him from communion with God.
The Orthodox Church requires that a Godparent be present during the Baptism ceremony. This ministry comes with special honor and responsibility and is one that should not be taken lightly. Many people take this responsibility lightly. However, a Sponsor should be a faithful Orthodox Christian and be a good role model for their Godchild.
Personal encyclicals
The orthodox church works according to the steps revealed by God. These steps include the internal and external teachings of faith. Orthodox churches are self-governing bodies that share the same canons, liturgical worship, and teachings. They are the ultimate authoritch and other fundamentalist organizations. For example, both emphasize the importance of tradition and selective modernity. Furthermore, both emphasise the Bible and the liturgical language. They have been accused of moral dualism and moral decay.
The Orthodox Church also opposes modernism and nationalism, and calls for the protection of local identity. They also oppose the “autonomization” of the economy.
Apostolic succession is the process of appointment and succession of bishops in the Christian Church. In the orthodox church, this succession follows a consistent, uninterrupted line back to the apostles. The, and it occurs through the laying on of hands by previously consecrated bishops. This succession is a part of the Catholic and Orthodox Church traditions, though it is not recognized in the Protestant churches.
The doctrine of Apostolic succession has been contested by Protestants and Nonconformists, who argue that it is not rooted in Scripture, and that it is unnecessary for Christian life and practice. However, some Nonconformist Protestants maintain that apostolic succession is essential to the Christian faith, defining apostolicity as submission to the original twelve apostles outlined in Scripture. |

Yah that is what I thought. I did call the customer support number. Still waiting on the email answer.
An additional option is to buy a new ISS, $155.99 at Scientific Sales. You might find a lower price elsewhere.
The original could be refurbished and kept on hand for zero turn-around time.
$189.99 at Scientific Sales as of December 26, 2015.
I spoke to Davis this morning and got a RMA to return my 8 1/2 year old 6163 for a total refurbishment. My cost is $220 to Davis that includes all parts,labour, and $20 for return shipping. I will have to pay to ship it there. Had it been normally aspirated I believe that they said it would be $150 + shipping. A big difference from $500 mentioned above.
Be sure to send a list of EVERY problem you feel Davis should address. I know that on my second reconditioned unit, there were some not so minor problems that weren't corrected. One was the tipping bucket adjustment screws didn't adjust. My fault for not telling them but a disappointment none the less. Oh, I'll send another one when needed but I'll send a list with it. Finally, I sent a check with my first reconditioning and it took forever for Davis to wait for the check to clear before sending it back. Second one I called with a credit card number as soon as the tracking number said it had arrived. Saved me about a week.
I ?
I too am in the process of refurbishing my VP1. I bought it in 2001. These are some of the basic steps I'm going through and would appreciate your input.
The output amperage is in microamps. The voltage ranges from 1.8 to 5.5 volts. The chip has three legs for ground, V+, and output. Looking at the reed switch on my rain gauge, there are only two wires connected but the cable has 4 wires. I assume on is ground(NC), and the other 2 are V+ and output.
3) I "brushed" off the humidity sensor and now it seems to work better but I don't think it is 100%. Other than brushing, has anyone found an additional technique or techniques that seemed help?
I could not find a replacement part online and the one mentioned from several years ago has been discontinued.
6) I'm switching over to the MAC/Linux/RPi side from a PC for various reasons. I like to compile data and have a strong interest in solar energy.
a) what software have you found that records solar (and UV) from a VP2 or similar station?
? I'm currently using WeatherLink on a PC. The MAC version does not collect solar.
c) if the data is good, I thought of sending the data to WeatherUnderground, etc. but it is not a big priority at this point.
This is a lot and I know that some of the replies are scattered through out this wonderful site.
I've learned a lot from you all and have appreciate the comments/advice/insights.
I sometimes just blow it out with some canned air or an air compressor on fairly low pressure (~ 20 psi?). I don't take the radiation shield apart very often.
As far as I know, if your temp/hum sensor goes bad, you're out of luck if you can't find a working used sensor on ebay or somewhere.
That's the part number I have for a replacement.
If the capacitor is bad or going bad, and if you haven't replaced the cap since 2001, I would say it is, I would remove it. I would remove it even if you don't replace it with a new one, it seems to me that caps that are bad or going bad place more of a drain on the battery, and you may be better off running just on battery with no cap. Plus a bad cap is more likely to leak.
I think I remember some people may have tried putting two caps in parallel, if I recall there wasn't any significant benefit. I think maybe the amount of charge was limited by the solar panel. But it doesn't hurt to increase the capacitance either, unless two caps make it more likely one will fail sooner.
Not the answer you're looking for, but what I did when the VP2 came out was to buy an almost new VP1 cheap from someone who had to upgrade, and some other spare VP1 parts and sensors from the clearance sale. So I hope to keep my VP1 running indefinitely and relatively cheaply. I think I've already saved money and down time by doing that rather than buying a new VP2. I'm not the type who is that concerned about a 1 degree margin of error compared to 0.5 degree margin of error, or a new colored console that announces the temperature audibly, or flies to the room you're in when you call, or whatever a VP3 may do. I purchased my original VP1 from a company that I think went out of business, I think it was called Earth Treasures, or something like that.
Here is one thread that I believe gives some reference to where to get bearings for the new anemometer, and how it comes apart http://www.wxforum.net/index.php?topic=28664.0, and I believe there was another thread more recently. The bearings in the old one are sealed in the housing, and you pretty much need to buy a new one if they go bad. I just replaced mine a couple of months ago. I'm saving my old one as I think it may work in an emergency with a little light synthetic oil until I get a new one. I may get a spare before then as I understand the new and old anemometers are interchangeable, but it sounds like the new ones are more prone to rust and failures, so I'll see if Davis works out the issues first. My other one lasted 12 or 13 years, so hopefully there's no hurry.
I don't have the solar transmitter for the anny, but I think like any other VP1 transmitter/receiver, you're out of luck if you can't find a good used one.
I asked for a lot and receiving even just a little is appreciated especially since it looks like good information.
For instance, I have read a number of the topics but had not seen the use of compressed air. I'll give it a try.
It seems like this is a capacitive type of sensor and it appears to have a filter wrapped around it. I see some fine lines under the filter and wonder if those are not wires of some sort.
Glad to hear that I may have ordered the right replacement part for the electrolytic capacitor.
When I purchased my VP1, I was not thinking of buying replacement parts. A couple of humidity sensors would be worth a lot now. If the sensor is bad or going bad, it looks like it is time to buy a VP2. It's interesting that when the VP1 had come on out, there were rumors of a VP2. Now there are rumors of a VP3...
I hear you about accuracy issues. We are supposed to place our units away from roads, shade, wind shadows of buildings, etc. All we have is a average point with fluctuations all around us. It makes life interesting.
I'll take a look at your 'anny reference. There is a lot of good material on this site but I've only recently crossed back over into 2015. Not sure where all the nuggets are buried. Over a 1/4 million posts and nearly 28K topics let alone side references, sites, and additional links. I could be here the rest of my life and then some.
It makes me nervous if I'm the only one doing it. Hopefully if there's a good reason not to do it someone will say, you don't want to take big risks on a sensor that is no longer obtainable. So far mine has survived, but I do want to stress not to use real high PSI directly on it, but I think "canned air" or whatever it's called should be safe.
Also I got to thinking later; if your station is from 2001, it may be one where you need to take the shield apart to get to the battery anyway, making it a good time to gently wipe the sensor. But then many have been retrofitted so you don't have to take the shield apart.
Regarding the dew point reading; I think you should compare the temp and humidity readings. If one or both of those are off then the DP will be. You should be able to find charts or a way to calculate the DP from the T and H to see how accurate your station is.
Technically, when the Dew Point falls below a certain point (freezing, I believe ), it becomes the "Frost Point", and as I remember the calculation is a little different than the DP (something like a 10% difference in the calculation, if I recall). You should be able to search for "frost point" and find the specifics. I don't know if the VP algorithm recognizes a difference between DP and FP.
I don't know why your NWS station doesn't read below +15. If you have cold temps you'll have a low DP/FP. However the cheap Oregon Scientific station I had that prompted me to get the VP also wouldn't calculate the DP below 14 degrees, if I recall correctly.
I followed some of these boards when I got my VP, and I must have missed any rumors of the VP2. I was a little miffed when the VP2 came out not long after I invested in the VP1. In hindsight, I'm not so disappointed now. I got a mature product that had most of the kinks worked out, and as I mentioned, got the spare station and parts on the cheap as they were being discontinued and some people couldn't wait to upgrade. Anyway, from that, I got the impression that Davis may keep any possible developments pretty secret. But there are some pretty knowledgeable people here who may have more insight. There are always speculations about what the next latest and greatest may hold.
Also, I just looked at the specs in the VP1 Console Manual. It says that the range for Dew Point (overall) is -105F to 130F with a nominal accuracy of 3F.
It also says the range for "Frost/Dew Point at High Humidity" (so it at least recognizes there is such a thing as Frost Point) is also -105 to 130F but with a 2F accuracy. I'm not sure how you could have a FP of -105 at high humidity if the Temp range only goes to -40. But in any case, I don't see any reason you should worry if your DP goes below +15.
Re your original question about software and things, there is a section under Weather Software specifically to ask what software to get.
I looked up your earlier forum reference to repairing the wind vane and anemometer. If I have the one with a reed switch in it, it might be better to just take the plunge and buy a VP2. I've gotten a lot of miles out of this station but I hate the idea of scrapping all these still viable parts and the plastics.
There is a schematic here for what I think is supposed to be an early VP2 sensor. The cabling should be the same as I believe the early VP2s were interchangeable with the VP1.
I am late to this thread but I thought a comment was still appropriate. I had an 11 year VP2 system that was showing its age. The ISS was grossly discolored or fading in color, but most importantly, the rain bucket tool was terribly inaccurate. Davis sent to me at no charge a replacement reed switch and magnet for the rain bucket, which helped but did not fix the situation to my satisfaction. Davis offers a refurbishment program as discussed thoroughly in this thread (about $170 including shipping) but I decided it was worth an extra $100 to get a whole new ISS from Scaled Instruments, that has updated and greatly improved sensors, a bubble in the ISS to help you ensure your ISS is level, a new rain cone with bird spikes and a better debris filter in the rain cone. I changed the old station to communicate on channel 4 vs the default of channel 1 used by the new ISS (the old one even without the battery will continue to transmit for several hours) and my station was posting to WU and CWOP in minutes vs. a couple weeks had I sent the unit to Davis for refurbishment. My 2 original VP2 consoles work perfectly with the new ISS, and I believe I am getting more accurate readings. No regrets, if you have the extra $100, that is my recommendation.
The A188 shown in your referenced in your link is definitely the one I have in my VP1. After brushing it off with the plastic part of a tie-wrap, it seemed to function better. Not sure if I pressed the wrapping closer or did something inadvertently to straighten things out. If and when I purchase a new VP2, I know I will tear the sensor apart to see what makes it tick.
I like the way they socketed the sensor for easy replacement. Seems this should be a goal for any future VP3. I could see them making a refurb kit where we could refurb our own units or sensor sections keeping from tossing a lot of good plastic and functional sensor units into a landfill. Why junk an anemometer if the vane and cups are still good? Why junk an ISS if only the humidity sensor is bad? It looks like Davis is thinking along those lines with the individual small boards.
I noticed my RJ-? connectors have gotten corroded. I cleaned them off and the solar and UV still work. WD&WS are plugged into a solar powered transmitter box. If the corrosion was too bad, I thought I might solder the leads into the main board.
I've read the posts about the Davis refurb programs but unfortunately, I have the VP1 and I understand that they no longer have the part I really need, the humidity sensor. I hate to just toss what has been a great unit but the VP2 looks like they have made a lot of good improvements. I'm leaning more and more toward buying a VP2.
I take it that you like dealing with Scaled Instruments??car! SoI guess my philosophy with the Davis is also similar to that with vehicles. I find it cheaper, and usually more rewarding, to keep two old (27+ years) trucks running than one new one. It helps to have two when they're that old so (hopefully) one is still running when I'm working on the other, and I can actually work on the older trucks. Unlike my VP1s though, they're not the same make and model, so I can't just swap out parts. I can't see myself ever getting rid of my Comanche, so it's possible I could end up spending more on it than it's worth, but I think that will be years from now yet. It's also possible I may be, or end up, missing some worthwhile features of newer trucks. But I'm cheap.
Thinking it through I might just start with warm distilled water and see if soaking the sensor in it has an effect before proceeding to taking it apart.
? Are they recyclable?
I took your advise and ordered a station from Ryan. Your description of him appears very accurate and it was pleasant doing business with him. My VP2 should be here mid week and I've got a smile on my face.
I think you will really like the VP2 but I am not familiar with the VP1 so can't tell you what is different. I have been wishing for a VP3 that would have a color touch screen console and would communicate with my computer using WiFi or Bluetooth as I have had occasional problems with my VP2 communicating over a USB cable, but everything else is excellent. That is why VP3 is probably down the road a bit. Davis is slow to come out with new products but keeps improving its existing products via "tweaks" which is very helpful.! Davis has certainly listened to their customers. The back light is bright that I no longer need a flashlight to read any of the numbers. The ISS setup electronics are front and center. The internals have been coated with what appears to be a protective grease. There is no antenna wire dangling below the aspirated plates just asking to be bent or snapped off. No problems in setting the system up. It makes me question why I waited so long.
Ryan at Scaled Instruments made sure I had the latest SHT-31 Temp_Humidity sensor. Good fellow to work with.
Yesterday, I replaced the rain gauge reed switch using the one with the 20-25 AT magnetic sensitivity and the electrolytic capacitor. The system is still up and running but the two repairs did not have an effect on the humidity sensor. I didn't think it would. We had some rain last night and the humidity sensor shot up from around normal to 100% and stayed there for hours. The local NWS station never got above 84% and did not stay in that area for long. Somewhere around 72% RH, the sensor starts to climb quickly. Our rain event had RHs mostly in the mid to high 70's.
I appreciated your input.
Thanks. I learned about Ryan from this Forum. You won't be disappointed with your purchase. |
en | N/A | N/A | 02/2012 I pulled my yearly credit reports. On the equifax one I found an open collection with ATT that I believed was an error. I filed a dispute, Equifax investigated and agreed that the debt was not mine. They then removed the item from my credit report and (i assume) notified ATT and/or any other company involved. About 5 months later, ATT SOLD the debt, with my SSN still attached, to a collection agency. The debt should have had all my information removed from it (since it was not mine to begin with). Not only did ATT fail to comply with the dispute results, but they sold it to another party which is now, 1 year later, reporting a collection on my credit report.
The short answer is seeking to collect on this debt that was never your violatesact.
It sounds like this was a case of identity theft..... I would suggest you folow the FTC's advice on this kind of thing.

en | N/A | N/A | Bone China (2014)
Bone China (2014) was commissioned by Fonds Podiumkunsten for November Music, 5-9 November 2014, Willem II Fabriek, ‘s Hertogenbosch, Netherlands
This slideshow requires JavaScript.<p><a href=”″>Bone China 2014</a> from <a href=”″>Kate Moore</a> on <a href=””>Vimeo</a>.</p>
Bone China, a sculptural sound installation, is a sprawling musical automata made of found ceramics and copper. The ceramics were chosen for their sound. They have been ordered according to pitch and not altered in any way. The pure bell-like sound and fragile notes are struck by a set of handmade hammers made especially for the ceramics. The hammers are fingerlike, catching the edge of the objects and plucking them as though they were strings. Melodies and harmonies emerge from the bodies of the objects as the copper dials lead the fingerlike hammers across the objects. The music is unique to this set of ceramics. A different collection would sing a different song.
The installation was inspired by collections of pottery, ceramics and intricately ornamented jewelry recovered from ancient sites around the world. Pottery has been used as a material throughout the ages and the objects of prehistory resemble the same objects used in modern times. Observing various displays of ancient pottery, a curiosity for the quality of their sound was unleashed, posing the question of whether they sound similar to modern ceramics. Before the invention of metal pipes, strings and other musical instruments, ceramics could have been tuned and tempered, used to create modes and musical scales. Ceramic objects could have been modeled to create pitch and arranged in such a way to capture melodies like a prehistoric tape or record. |

This wonderful event is the reason why the new Gal Gear Grocery Totes were not posted last week. Herkimer CCC went to the NJCAA World Series in Tyler Texas. We couldn't pass up the opportunity to see this talented team play for the national title. They finished 3rd in the nation. Congratulations Herkimer Generals!
Where do you keep those plastic bags that you get from the store when you have forgotten to take your grocery totes?
Which Grocery Tote is the most popular?
My sister ask me, "Can you make a bag that looks like a purse and holds medical equipment?"
This jewelry roll was made especially for a very thoughtful young lady. During the tournament in Delaware the heat was oppressive, she cut up her beach towel, soaked the pieces in ice water and gave them to players and parents sweating in the hot sun. She used tiny scissors from my first aid kit...and I know first hand how hard it is to cut fabric with dull scissors. Thank you Ally, you're the best!
My version of a Doggie Bag...
Over the years we've traveled with many of the families to various venues for baseball tournaments. So our team knows how to pack and travel to these events. As we were packing up at the end of one tournament someone jokingly suggested I should make Dawg Bags for the team. What a great idea!So I got busy and in one week I had made 18 bags. I made one for each mom, personalized with her player's number. I presented them to the moms at the NYS Big League Tournament in Wappingers Falls later that week. I knew it might be the last tournament we'd travel together, as several players would be too old to play with this team next year. Well, our team won! |
en | N/A | N/A | This story took a long time to evolve. The core was there for years, but I wasn’t comfortable with it. A reading in the Writers’ Circle helped to identify elements that wouldn’t work. After several rewrites, it was finally published in Costa TV Times in 2010.
GIVE ME A CHANCE, WILL YOU?
“It’s a challenge, Joseph,” the Governor had said.
Just like the times before, Joe promised he would make an effort.
Now, weak grey eyes squinting in the summer sunlight, Joe Clancy stepped through the prison gate and looked back over his narrow sloping shoulders at the only home he knew.
Reluctantly he ambled away and hesitantly viewed the outside world again.
At least inside he had status. A regular. The psychologist called him a recidivist, which didn’t sound as good.
The deep rumbling sound of the prison door closing was as familiar as a nightmare. Ever since being sent down he’d dreaded hearing that.
He was already uncomfortable and sweating. But he remembered his promise. “I’ll really try this time, Governor.”
It was easy to make that promise while safely locked in HM Prison, but once he faced the reality outside, the streets teeming with people, he was frightened.
Of his fifty-four years, he’d done bird for thirty-two. Mostly for petty crimes. He was not a violent man. Just a simple one.
But he kept coming back because he needed the security. True, it wasn’t like the old days. There was a much nastier sort of criminal now. But he still yearned for the place and its predictable schedule.
The “economic climate” was a problem. Why offer a jailbird a job when there were plenty of unemployed honest citizens? Then, amazingly, he got the caretaker’s job at Wetherington Warehouses.
Soon there was a spring in his step, and he held up his head with pride. He locked offices, cleaned toilets, and did an hourly fire and security check. He was left alone, and nobody bothered him.
The pull of his old home, the prison, lessened.
Then, one morning, he was confronted at his boarding house by two detectives. His emotions were suddenly scrambled. A familiar flock of butterflies gyrated in his stomach. Here was the prospect of going back, surely? The reasons why didn’t much matter.
He soon realised that he had been hired as a scapegoat. Possibly it was an insurance swindle. He didn’t care. They’d done him a favour, by giving him a chance to serve another prison sentence.
However, the judge claimed .
Joseph was staggered. “But, your Honour!” he protested. “You can’t let me go! I don’t want to be free!”
The judge leaned over solicitously. “I have studied your rather unique record, Mr Clancy, and I am of the opinion that you still haven’t been able to come to terms with life outside prison walls.” He shook his white-wigged head. “I urge you to try. I’m sure that, given time, you’ll find an honest niche in society.”
Trembling, Joseph left the court, eyes downcast. The other accused people sitting in the corridor looked enviously at him. If only they knew!
“Excuse me, Mr Clancy...” A woman’s quiet, gentle voice.
He backed off, risked a glance. The blonde woman was about thirty. She didn’t have a wedding ring but the mark on her finger suggested that at some time she had worn one. Her blue eyes showed concern. For him? Surely not?
“My name’s Mrs Donovan - Lynda... I’m your new probation officer,” she explained, brushing aside a stray wisp of hair from her flushed cheek.
He lowered his gaze. “I don’t want to talk,” he murmured. Turning, he hurried for the entrance.
But Lynda kept up. “Joe, give me a chance, will you?”
He paused at the door to let a barrister in.
“Anyway,” she persisted, “I’m going past your digs. I’ll drop you off.”
He couldn’t be rude. She meant well. She obviously didn’t know he was a hopeless case. Most of the other probation officers had tried with him, and failed.
“All right. But no fancy sneaky questions, all right?”
They approached her Ford Escort. “Here we are, Joe. No sneaky questions - promise!”
Then he noticed a movement on the back seat. He froze, hand on the door-handle. A little girl, about five years old, in a pretty blue dress. Blonde hair almost reached her waist.
He let go of the door and was about to go round to the front passenger seat.
“Don’t mind my daughter, I had to pick her up from playschool early today.” Lynda opened the rear door for him. “Go on, she won’t bite!”
“My name’s Clair.” The child held out a small hand.
The door clicked shut and his world seemed confined, but he didn’t feel safe. He was not good with relationships, of any kind. Joseph hunched into the seat’s corner and nodded curtly. “Joe,” he grunted, folding his arms and shunning her hand.
As Lynda pulled out into the traffic, Clair said, “Are you really a bad man, Joe?”
His lower lip trembled. Sitting next to such innocence disarmed him. “I - I - Yes...” he finally managed, throat abnormally dry.
“Well, you don’t seem so bad to me. I think I like you,” Clair declared. Eyeing him sideways, she giggled, “You’ve got a big nose!”
“Clair!” Lynda exclaimed.
Joe smiled into the rear-view mirror. “Clair’s right - I have.”
Clair leapt up and grabbed the back of her mother’s seat, startling him. “Mummy, can we stop at the park?”
“Well, we’re dropping off Mr Clancy...”
Clair’s face crumpled in disappointment.
Joe said, “It’s all right, Mrs Donovan - I’ll walk the rest of the way – it isn’t far...” Get out, be alone again, that’s what he wanted...
His heart jumped into his mouth as Clair grabbed hold of his clammy hand. “Come with us, Joe!”
The car stopped and Lynda let her daughter out. They stood by the kerb, waiting.
“Come on, Joe,” Lynda urged, holding Clair’s hand.
If he had married, he’d have wanted a daughter just like Lynda. He wondered what had happened to little Clair’s father – dead or divorced? Probably divorce, otherwise she would still wear the wedding ring. Unless she never married; one of those single mums who coped somehow... More than he did, cope... Whatever, Lynda was coping while holding down a job. He thought, God, why can’t I keep a job?
He peered through the park railings. The shimmering lake, the lush green grass and the sycamore trees. Birds were singing. Strangely, at this moment the open spaces did not seem to pose such a threat. A little apprehensively, he clambered out of the car.
Lynda slammed the car door after him, and it echoed in his memory like the prison doors.
Clair ran up to him. “You could be sort of part of our family,” Clair said seriously, arms akimbo. “Like an uncle or something, couldn’t you?”
He could almost hear his heart beating now. “An honorary uncle.” He glanced at Lynda for reassurance and she nodded, smiling. He said, “I - I’d be proud to be part of your family.” He smiled as Clair turned and started taking small steps towards the lake.
“Go on ahead,” Lynda suggested.
‘You’re sure?” he asked.
“Yes. Since her grandfather and father died, she hasn’t had a male figure in her life. You’ll be good for her, I think.”
The butterflies in his stomach abruptly migrated and all he felt was a warm glow. He might be good for someone, after all.
Joe soon caught up with Clair. She skipped along by his side. He breathed in the fragrant flowers and actually felt trusted again.
This recidivist, he vowed, isn’t going back.

en | N/A | N/A | Most members are well aware that the Queensland parliament has recently changed trading hours throughout Queensland. This change was not necessary as there was no discernible demand from customers and retailers and we suspect no new jobs will be created as a result of these changes. We know consumers only have so much money to spend each week and by extending trading hours, it simply spreads the spend over a longer period of time.
An employer must not require an employee to work during extended hours unless the employee has freely elected to work during extended hours. Elect means each individual employee must agree in writing for a stated or indefinite period. This does not mean that the employee elects to work during extended hours because that same employee has been coerced, harassed, threatened or intimidated by or for the employer. If you don’t want to work the additional hours for a stated or indefinite period simply say NO!
The legislation also includes an additional criterion that if there is a change to trading hours after the 5 year moratorium that this change has to be mindful of the effect on employees. This is important for future trading hours applications because it strengthens our ability to defend the rights of our members.
There is no doubt in my mind that if the union was not involved in representing the interests of SDA members in this important trading hours matter, the outcome would have been far worse. We could have ended up with 24 hours, 7 days a week trade which occurs in another State of Australia. |

en | N/A | N/A | 7 Ways To Make People Feel Like They're Your #1 Priority

Landau and Webb have already made modifications to enhance the customer's experience. At their first store, the single desk for check-in and checkout created bottlenecks, so at subsequent stores, they set up separate stations. They also removed most phones, because the constant ringing—in concert with roaring blow dryers—was not conducive to relaxation. (Off-site reservation agents now handle calls.) The experts suggested the founders consider turning down the music. Webb agreed, but her brother argued that music boosts sales and customers love it. The music will remain loud.
2. Hire sweethearts
Inghilleri suggested Drybar start evaluating stylists' customer service skills before their blow-drying skills. Hiring managers are sometimes so impressed after seeing someone with excellent technique that they are ready to dismiss deficiencies, such as a poor personality, he explained. He also wanted Drybar to use questions designed by a talent-profiling company to assess applicants' service orientation. Before posing those questions in interviews, the founders should ask them of a few star employees and record the answers, then do the same with middle-of-the-roaders. Both sets of responses should be weighed against applicants' answers to indicate which group they are more likely to emulate.
Solomon questioned the company's pursuit of outgoing, bubbly personalities. "I think what you are really looking for is peoplehe said. "Everyone should be able to deal with someone who is depressed or with the no-nonsense businesswoman."
3. Be great on the phone
Landau, who has talked to four such outfits, pushed back: "Doing it ourselves, we have a high degree of control. The girls who work for us love the brand. To try to convey that message to a bunch of people who don't work here, it's a little scary." He hopes that the proliferation of franchises will soon justify Drybar's having its own call center. "It should be a Zappos environment—camaraderie and everyone working together," he said.
Inghilleri and Solomon had additional criticisms after listening in on a caller making an appointment. The operator, although knowledgeable and helpful, rambled in her responses and once or twice spoke over the caller. As with the bartenders, the experts recommended the use of a script.
4. Keep them pumped
The co-founders understand that consistent service is, by definition, repetitious. Do the right thing. Then do it again, ad infinitum. "For our employees, it's like being onstage," said Landau. "If you're in a Broadway show twice a day, five or six times a week, you still have to make every member of the audience feel like it's the first time you've done it."
To buoy enthusiasm, the experts recommended morning pep talks. During those five-minute gatherings, managers should alert staff to appointments by frequent dryers who deserve a little extra care, as well as customers prepping for big events. "That reminds staff that what they are doing is important to people's lives, which is great for morale," said Solomon. Inghilleri suggested breaking the talks into principles—such as the importance of a warm greeting, timeliness, or escorting customers. "Every day, you give people something a little different to focus on," he saidContinue reading » |

I've asked thousands of people what being organized means to them. I've heard back from everyone from new moms to empty nesters, and no matter what, a lot of their answers are the same.
Sothat we're all facing when it comes to getting organized. And while all our houses are a little different, there are a few organizing essentials that everyone can use to take control of the clutter. These are just a few of my all time favorite tools for helping to get'.
Magazine holders are great for storing water bottles, cleaning supplies, reusable bagsfind these for under $2 each and they can be used for so many organizing projects. I use them in my pantry to store paper plates, plasticware, as well as wraps, bags, and foil. I also have several in the kids' craft room for coloring books, papers, and artwork. They are seriously the best.
You can also use hanging shoe organizers for so much more than shoes. Use them for small toys in the kids' room, cleaning products in the laundry room, or snacks in the pantry. Check out how my friend Kristen uses shoe organizers for winter gear - genius!
One of the biggest questions I'm asked is how do you deal with paper clutter? No matter how much we go digital, it still seems like our homes are overflowing with paper (especially if you have kids in school!).
Mason jars are my go to organizer for all the little things. They are super versatile, totally washable, durable, and go with just about any decor. And they are so inexpensive - you can get them for under $2 a piece. I use them everywhere: in the bathroom for cotton balls, swabs, and more, on my desk for pencils and markers, and in the kitchen for all sorts of things. You can't go wrong having a set of mason jars around - trust me, you will use them.
One of the most common things that I hear about organizing is that people want to be able tois is why I like to label ALL THE THINGS. I use my Cricut Explore Air to create awesome labels for everything from kitchen canisters to toy bins.

en | N/A | N/A | This was not what the Island master needed for herself. The face retaining pills that Yang Chen gave to the Island master last time were all refined with ten thousand year materials, which could make people look youthful in the mortal world. The words of the Island master were asked for the millions of disciples in the Green Jade Immortal Island.
Only the five of them have enjoyed such great benefits, it would be abnormal if the people below were not making noise. As a woman, the Island master certainly knew better than Yang Chen, the fatal attraction of this face retaining pills to female cultivators. Therefore, she must take advantage of this time to ask clearly, even if they can’t get it right away, she must also win a chance for her own disciples.
He has been with the ladies for a long time, so naturally they also talked about this topic. Yang Chen now understands how much trouble he has caused himself to launch the face retaining pills at this time.
However, if the situation at the time were not revealed, Sun Qingxue and Shi Shanshan wouldn’t even have the least confidence, so Yang Chen couldn’t help thinking too much.
Now that things have happened, Yang Chen naturally wouldn’t refuse. However, Fairy Chang’e’s face retaining pills were not so easy to obtain, and it was impossible to say that Yang Chen could only use the second grade Nine Heaven Profound face retaining pill to deal with it. Moreover, the medicinal materials cannot be replaced with a thousand-year-old one with this extremely precious medicinal pill.
Even so, this face retaining pill was destined to be expensive. Yang Chen alone, even if he doesn’t do anything every day, specifically refining the face retaining pills, he couldn’t meet the needs of all the female monks in the world. What’s more, even if it was a second ten thousand year medicinal material, it was also a ten thousand year medicinal material. How many could there be in this mortal world?
With just this sentence, Shangguan Feng became the favorite friend of women of all female cultivators after Yang Chen. Which ten thousand treasure tower could allocate how many face retaining pills quotas were all within the thought of Shangguan Feng. Which female cultivator does not want to have a good relationship with Shangguan Feng? There were many blue-faced confidants of any female cultivator. These people, almost without exception, praise Shangguan Feng highly.
Although it couldn’t meet everyone’s needs, at least there would be a stable channel to buy the face retaining pills in the future. The Island master was relatively satisfied.
Naturally, the host and the guest had a great time. Shi Shanshan also came back and sat beside Yang Chen, her every move was very submissive, giving Yang Chen enough face.
After staying in the Green Jade Immortal Island for almost a month, Yang Chen took his master and senior apprentice sister and Sun Qingxue and flew to the Blue Cloud Sect instead. Shi Shanshan wanted to stay in the sect to handle some affairs, and at the same time continue to receive some guidance in the sect.
It was almost the same reaction as Shi Shanshan’s return to the Green Jade Immortal Island. The people of the Blue Cloud Sect almost shouted when they saw the living Sun Qingxue and Sun Qingxue who had become a Yuanying stage ancestor.
A vague message came from the Green Jade Immortal Island before. It was said that the cold plum fairy had returned to the Green Jade Immortal Island and the dancing snow fairy who was with her was also there, but the specific situation was unknown to them. When Yang Chen’s family stayed in the Green Jade Immortal Island. The Blue Cloud Sect was already waiting to see through, and it was easy to wait until people returned to the sect. Who knows that meeting was an unforgettable surprise.
Elder Hua Wanting was just like Sun Qingxue’s mother, carefully looking at Sun Qingxue up and down, for fear that she would still leave a trace of hidden danger.
This disciple of their sect was not as good as Shi Shanshan in cultivation, so in Hu Qianyi’s attack, she was not as badly injured as Shi Shanshan. But it was worth mentioning that even with Hu Qianyi’s dacheng stage cultivation base, when he was alone against Sun Qingxue, she did not get caught intact. This was already the highest praise to Sun Qingxue.
Even if the injury was not as serious as Shi Shanshan, in the eyes of the members of the Blue Cloud Sect, Sun Qingxue’s best result was a complete failure of her cultivation base. With Yang Chen, perhaps she could re-cultivate after recovering from her injuries, but no one had expected such a big surprise. In just twenty years, all of Sun Qingxue’s injuries were healed, and she was elevated to the Yuanying stage.
Even if the fifth grade lingzhi mushroom jade pill could heal the injuries of the dacheng stage masters, they were after all dacheng stage masters, their bodies were extremely powerful, and they wouldn’t be swallowed by the medicinal energy. Shi Shanshan and Sun Qingxue in the Yuanying stage couldn’t bear the medicinal energy of the fifth grade lingzhi mushroom jade pill at all.
Under such circumstances, Yang Chen even successfully cured the injuries of the two women and improved their cultivation. The mystery of this makes people feel expectant after thinking about it.
However, everyone in the Blue Cloud Sect also knew that this kind of thing belonged to Yang Chen’s exclusive secret method, and it was absolutely impossible to ask. However, this did not prevent them from asking their disciple Sun Qingxue.
Naturally, this was the next thing, the top priority was to entertain the Yang Chen family. Shi Shanshan’s absence, the friendship betweent was not a big deal. But Yang Chen couldn’t be neglected, the grand posture of the Blue Cloud Sect was almost the same as the Green Jade Immortal Island.
Even the question asked by sect master Lu during the dinner was the same. The Blue Cloud Sect was also mainly having female disciples, and the demand for the face retaining pills would never be less than the Green Jade Immortal Island.
Therefore, before Yang Chen had refined the face retaining pills, Shangguan Feng had already become the object of the two sects’ struggle. Favored by the two sects, Shangguan Feng felt painful and happy.
Also after staying in the Blue Cloud Sect for a month, Yang Chen left with his master and senior apprentice sister and hurried back to the Pure Yang Palace. At this time, the news that the cold plum fairy and dancing snow fairy had returned at the same time had spread among the cultivators, and even the two girls had been promoted to the Yuanying stage.
Regardless of the surprise of these people, Yang Chen drove the shuttle and quickly returned to the Pure Yang Palace.
The palace master brought all the elders and Yuanying stage masters out to greet them. They had heard about the return of the five members of Yang Chen’s family a long time ago and they had waited for them. Now they finally saw Yang Chen appear in front of them with Gao Yue and Gongsun Ling.
The three Yuanying stage masters caused the palace master to nod and say with a little choking, “Good! Good!” There was nothing else to say.
Gao Yue and Gongsun Ling’s masters, Wang Yong and Gao Shiyan, were also feeling unspeakable pride looking at their disciples.
In the end, everyone’s eyes were on Yang Chen. This was the talent and miracle that allowed the entire Pure Yang Palace to spread its wings and fly high, the unicorn of the Pure Yang Palace. |

en | N/A | N/A | I’m actually a bit unhappy with the last chapter and i am going to redo it.
Two Girls lay on a bed with bursting, bulging, full to the brim, and aching bladders. Madison and Annie were at a stage you could not call desperation. Both had long since passed their normal bladder limits. 1.8 Litres of warm, steaming urine were pent up inside there stretched piss pouches. The pounding pain each girl felt would convince many people to let go even in the midst of a bustling shopping centre. The overwhelming urge to drench their respective items of clothing and Madison's bed was beaten back by a combination of holding methods and pure willpower. Both Girls were determined to hold on a bit longer than the other. It would only be for a few slight seconds, but they would still be triumphant.
"How are you feeling?" Annie's voice broke through the silence that had fallen upon the room, the banter between the two friends had died off as all their concentration was placed on holding. The last two words made both girls cringe. Madison wrestled with her vivid imagination as it tortured her with flowing rivers and flushing toilets. She grit her teeth and squeezed her vagina as another wave of desperation washed over her. Annie noticed her friends predicament and decided to tease. "About to release Niagra falls Madison?" The blonde shook her head "You first, Annie." Annie tried to rise up into a sitting position, but the feeling of her bladder about to burst open forced her to abandon that idea. "You're struggling as much as me Annie, admit it." Annie sighed but smiled "We are both up the creek without a paddle." The witty response earned a groan from Madison.
Madison knew that this contest was almost over. Despite her determination to hold and her enormous bladder capacity; there were only a few minutes left before her long-held piss forced its way out of her urethra. She fought to keep back panic and tears as she realised she would have to give up. Despite all her boasting about being the best and having the largest bladder in the group, she was about to wet herself like a little girl. "Madison, are you okay?" Annie's voice no longer sounded condescending. A loving, and caring tone, one Madison had never heard from Annie in a long time, wrapped her up like a warm blanket. "Madison, are you hurt?" Madison was shaking from more than just desperation. "Yes. It hurts." Suddenly Annie saw something she never thought she would ever witness. Madison, the tough and sporty tomboy, began to sob.
"Please don't leave me, Annie, don't think less of me for this. Madison's words struck Annie's heart like a freight train. "Madison you're my best friend, I'm not going to leave you. Please end this if it hurts you, I don't think any less of you." Madison hid her face in the pillow as she cried. She felt the bed shift as Annie got off the bed. "You're not a freak Madison. No friend would abandon you for what you like." The darkness of the pillow was replaced by Annie's beautiful smile as Madison was lifted up bridal style. Her sobbing calmed slightly as she gazed into Annie's pearl green eyes. "Especially a friend who loves the same."
Madison's crotch exploded with piss. The blue denim was turned to a deep black as hot urine thundered through it. The "Niagara falls" description from Annie earlier did not do Madison's torrent justice. The Pacific Ocean, Atlantic, and every other ocean were pouring out of Madison's urethra. A deafening hiss quickly filled the room only for it to drowned out by the loud splattering of pee falling onto the wooden floor. Madison's eyes went wide, the pleasure was unbelievable, the warmth amazing. She could hardly make any sounds, the intense feelings froze her in place. Annie leaned in close to her face, the heat in her cheeks was almost as intense as that in her crotch, "I know everything." She tilted Madison slightly so that the rivers of urine ran down her legs. The splashing of pee made Annie's whispers almost imperceptible. The tight, blue denim shorts worn by Madison stuck to her thighs and panties as pee soaked and resoaked them. Going commando did Madison no favours as there was nothing to help soak up the immense volumes of piss before it hit her shorts. "I am Annabladder on the site. I am another omorashi lover." Annie positioned the stunned form of Madison so that she was standing up, although she would fall if Annie let go. Annie felt the familiar feeling of warm liquid hit the top of her already soaked thigh highs and decided it was time. Pushing herself as close as possible to Madison, she took a deep breath and leaned in for a kiss.
The next minute and a half were a blur. An impossibly large amount of pee left Madison's swollen bladder. Years worth of built-up tension and love between Madison and Annie finally reached its climax as both girls melted into each other as they kissed. Madison could only put up a weak effort as Annie's tongue invaded her mouth. Both almost passed out from the lack of air by the time they broke their kiss. Both girls were absolutely soaked through. Madison's shorts had turned almost completely black from the original dark blue shade. Annie, who had held Madison at chest height, had a wet patch stretching from her boobs to the bottom of her skirt. She wiggled her toes inside her now warm thigh highs and shivered in delight. Madison panted heavily as she calmed down from her desperation and love-filled high. "Feel better Madison?" asked Annie in the same loving tone. "A lot better, Annie." "I'm glad you do Madison. I meant everything I said, you know. I like omorashi, and I love you."
Madison collapsed back onto the bed "This must be a dream. This can't be real." Annie giggled "If it was a dream darling; then it would be a very good dream. Rest now Madison we will figure everything out later." A final kiss on the forehead sent Madison on her way to some of the best sleep she had ever had. While still in wet clothes, she drifted off to sleep. The sweet medley of a thick stream of urine and a loud moan emanating from the bathroom as Annie relieved herself was like a lullaby as she drifted off.
I am so sorry for taking a while to update this story, i had a few days where my creative spirit was dead. I really enjoyed writing my first original story and will be continuing the endeavours of Annie and Madison in the future. Thank you all so much for the positive response. Ciao for now.
Wishing Annie and Madison many soggy snoggles.

en | N/A | N/A | Jumbo pay increase for Nigerian Police
No CommentsJumbo pay for police
Good news! The Federal Government has raised the salaries of policemen in the country by as much as 100 per cent. Under the new pay regime, a constable who previously earned between N8, 000 and N10, 000 will now get between N22, 000 and N27, 000; a corporal now goes home with between N27, 000 and N28, 000, compared with the between N13, 000-N14, 000 that they used to earn. The same goes for a sergeant who hitherto earned a paltry N15, 000, he now smiles home with N31, 000.
For police inspectors, most of whom had spent over 25 years in the police force, the story is not different: they are now to receive between N50, 000 and N52, 000, up from N22, 000 that they earned until November last year. For the officers’ cadre, the salary of an assistant superintendent of police which was about N40, 000 has now been increased to between N80, 000 and N83, 000, A deputy superintendent of police now gets N90, 000 from the N45, 000 that he used to take home while a full superintendent who hitherto earned N 50, 000 now smiles home with N100,000 monthly. The increases exempted none.
This is about the first time in two decades that a meaningful review of salaries of policemen would be done in the country. We commendthis bold initiative which shows his commitment to improving the lot of the police. Without doubt, the men and women deserve to be well motivated.
Indeed, the review has been long overdue. Although all jobs come with their individual risks, policemen are exposed to even greater risks by the very nature of their calling. Crimina especially in the area of arms and ammunitions. The country needs an equally sophisticated and rapid response police force to tackle their menace. Unfortunately, the police are a mismatch for the criminals who are getting more and more daring, due to a number of factors, chief of which is inadequate motivation for the officers and men.
With the new pay structure, there is a stronger basis for Nigerians to now demand from the police improved efficiency. As a matter of fact, some Nigerians are hopeful that the rate at which policemen extort the citizenry should go down drastically with this gesture by the govern demonstrated good faith by overhauling, as it were, the salaries of the police.
But it still must do more. There is the need for the government to continue to invest in modern and sophisticated communication and other gadgets that the police need to perform effectively.
But, beyond taking care of law enforcement officers, the government should also act fast to tackle the problem of hat is presently high. Whilentinue to improve the lot of the police, it should be mindful that the band of criminals will be reduced when there is something worthwhile for as many people as possible to do.
But, whether the new pay will reduce the incidence of extortion by some unscrupulous policemen, a question being frequently asked by many Nigerians since the new pay was made public, is in the wombs of time.=43335 |

Gender has very little to do with it, but people who gender self-identify as men stay in and stay still in Vegas when it's cold out because if they're going to be exercising they want to have their torsos bared. Why exercise if people can't see your abs?And people who gender self-identify as women stay in and stay still when it's wet because we don't do wet t-shirts without getting paid, baby."
And chiming in from a much wetter climate, Luke Burbank, radio host and podcaster, "Live Wire Radio", and the podcast Too Beautiful to Live, had thoughts on how the weather impacts his activity saying, "Hailing from the Northwest, where they pretty much invented crummy weather, early fall is spent planning how you are going to stay active once the region turns into the grey sadness of a Morrissey song.

en | N/A | N/A | For those not following the current state of the ITU, a proposal has been put forward to (pretty much) reorganize the standards body around “New IP.” Don’t be confused by the name—it’s exactly what it sounds like, a proposal for an entirely new set of transport protocols to replace the current IPv4/IPv6/TCP/QUIC/routing protocol stack nearly 100% of the networks in operation today run on. Ignoring, for the moment, the problem of replacing the entire IP infrastructure, what can we learn from this proposal?
What I’d like to focus on is deterministic networking. Way back in the days when I was in the USAF, one of the various projects I worked on was called PCI. The PCI network was a new system designed to unify the personnel processing across the entire USAF, so there were systems (Z100s, 200s, and 250s) to be installed in every location across the base where personnel actions were managed. Since the only wiring we had on base at the time was an old Strowger mainframe, mechanical crossbars at a dozen or so BDFs, and varying sizes of punch-downs at BDFs and IDFs, everything for this system needed to be punched- or wrapped-down as physical circuits.
It was hard to get anything like real bandwidth over paper-wrapped cables with lead shielding that had been installed in the 1960s (or before??), wrap-downs, and 66 blocks. The max we could get in terms of bandwidth was about a T1, and often less. We needed more bandwidth than this, so we installed inverse multiplexers that would combine the bandwidth across multiple physical circuits to something large enough for the PCI system to run on.
The problem we ran into with these inverse multiplexers was they would sometimes fall out of synchronization, meaning frames would be delivered out of order—one of the two cardinal violations of deterministic networks. Since PCI was designed around a purely deterministic networking model, these failures caused havoc with HR. Not a good thing.
The second and third cardinal rules of deterministic networking are that there will be no jitter, and the network will deliver all packets accepted by the network. To make these rules work, there must be some form of entrance gating (circuit setup, generally speaking, with busy signals), fixed packet sizes, and strict quality of service.
In contrast, the rules of packet-switched (non-deterministic) networking are: all packets are accepted, packets can be (almost) any size, there is no guarantee any particular packet will be delivered, and there’s no way to know what the jitter and delay on delivering any particular packet might be.
Some kinds of payloads just need deterministic semantics, while others just need deterministic semantics. The problem, then, is how to build a single network that supports both kinds of semantics. Solving this problem is where thinking through the situation using a problem-solution mindset can help you, as a network engineer (or protocol designer, or software creator) understand what can be done, what cannot be done, and what the limitations are going to be no matter what solution you choose.
There are, at base, only three solutions to this problem. The first is to build a network that supports both deterministic and packet-switched traffic from the control planes to the switching path. The complexity of doing something like this would ultimately outweigh any possible benefit, so let’s leave that solution aside. The second is to emulate a deterministic network on top of a packet-switched network, and the third is to emulate a packet-switched network on top of a deterministic network. Consider the last option first—emulating a packet-switched network on top of a deterministic network. For those who are old enough, this is IP-over-ATM. It didn’t work. The inefficiencies of trying to stuff variably sized packets into the fixed-size frames required to create a deterministic network were so significant that it just … didn’t work. The control planes were difficult to deploy and manage—think ATM LANE, for instance—and the overall network was just really complicated.
Today, what we mostly do is emulate deterministic networks over packet-switched networks. This design allows traffic that does well in a packet-switched environment to run perfectly fine, and traffic that likes “some” deterministic properties, like voice, to work fine with a little effort on the part of the network designer and operator. Building something with all the properties of a genuinely deterministic network on top of a packet-switched network, however, is difficult.
To get there, you need a few things. First, you need some way to strictly control/steer flows, so the mix of packet and deterministic traffic is going allow you to meet deterministic requirements on every link through the network. Second, you need some excellent QoS mechanism that knows how to provide deterministic results while mixing in packet-switched traffic “underneath.” Third, you need to overprovision enough to take up any “slack” and variability, as well as to account for queuing and clock on/clock off delays through switching devices.
The truth is we can come pretty close—witness the ability of IP networks to carry video streaming and what looks like traditional voice today. Can it get better? I’m confident we can build systems that are ever closer to emulating a truly deterministic network on top of a packet-switched network—so long as we mind the tradeoffs and are willing to throw capacity and hardware at the problem.
Can we ever truly emulate packet-switched networks on top of deterministic networks? I don’t see how. It’s not just that we’ve tried and failed; it’s that the math just doesn’t ever seem to “work right” in some way or another.
So while the “new IP” proposal brings up an interesting problem—future applications may need more deterministic networking profiles—it doesn’t explain why we should believe either building a completely parallel deterministic network or trying to flip the stack to emulate a packet-switched network on top of a deterministic network, makes more sense than what we are doing today.
Looking at this from a problem/solution perspective helps clarify the situation, and produce a conclusion about which path is best, without even getting into specific protocols or implementations. Really understanding the problem you are trying to solve, even at an abstract level, and then working through all the possible solutions, even ones that might not have been invented yet (although I can promise you then have been invented), can help you get your mind around the engineering possibilities.
It is probably not how you’re accustomed to looking at network design, protocol selection, etc. But it’s one you should start using. |

en | N/A | N/A | Memories of working at McDonald's during the holidays
This time of year always brings back memories from my stint as a crew member at McDonald’s. We had a lot of fun year-round, like when we sent a new co-worker to the supply room to get seeds for the buns.
But my favorite bit came during the holidays.
McDonald’s had a deal in which customers could get a discount on a VHS tape of a Christmas movie or a mainstream offering if they bought an extra-value meal. One year it was “Dances with Wolves,” and the other it was “Field of Dreams.”
We had the movies playing on a loop from a monitor we put on the counter. We had to stop “Dances with Wolves” and replace it, though. Apparently there is a scene that you wouldn’t want to see while eating. Because the monitor was facing the dining room, I never saw it. I haven’t since, either, so I still don’t know what happened that would ruin one’s appetite.
A guy who worked the drive-through had the most fun with the tapes. We were told to suggestive sell the movies -- suggestive sell is McDonald’s jargon for “Would you like fries with that?”
He took suggestive selling and ran with it. He suggestive sold to everyone, no matter what they ordered. For example:
My-coworker in the drive-through: “Welcome to McDonald’s. Can I take your order?”
Customer: “Yeah, I’d just like a medium coffee with two creams.”
Co-worker: “OK, that’s a medium coffee, two creams. Would you like to buy a Christmas video with that? We have “Field of Dreams” and “Babes in Toyland.”
Customer: “Uh, no. Just the coffee, please.”
Co-worker: “Great! That’s one medium coffee with two creams and a Christmas video. Your total is $16.97 at the first drive-through window.”
Customer: “No! I only wanted a coffee!”
Sometimes he had us laughing so hard that customers inside the restaurant who couldn’t hear the conversation would wonder what was going on.

en | N/A | N/A | Living in China means that I don’t have access to good ramen, compared to Singapore where many authentic ramen restaurants have mushroomed in the past few years. I have tried most of them, and my favourites include Ippudo, Ramen Champion, Baikohken, Marutama and Tampopo (at least its early days in Liang Court basement). So when I heard that Menya Musashi, a highly rated ramen chain in Japan had just newly opened in Singapore, I knew I had to try it on my trip home. The word ‘Musashi’ in its name actually refers to the legendary samurai Musashi, which also explains its samurai themed logo and decor.
If you go around dinner peak hour (around 7pm), be prepared to queue for at least half an hour. Come really early or late to skip queuing. I was lucky because my friend came early and started queuing for us, but my expectations probably would have been really high if I had to queue for too long. We were given picture menus while queuing and they took our order before we got seated. The interior of the place is quite no frills, foldable plastic chairs included – clearly the focus here is the food.
When you order, specify which of the three flavours (white, black, red), type of meat, and whether you want soup or tsukemen (dry noodles with a thicker dipping sauce). We were total noobs and thought that the black version only came in tsukemen so we got our order wrong. This was the original white soup with charshu (cut from rolled pork loin) ($12.90). The broth is made of pork, chicken and bonito. I thought it was quite balanced and it was not too porky (too much pork) or too salty (too much bonito). Though the charshu was very well braised and melt in your mouth soft, it was a little too fatty for my liking.
This was the black soup with kakuni (pork belly) ($14.90), and it is literally black because of the addition of garlic oil. Very aromatic and it had a nice fried garlic flavour without being too pungent. The meat was leaner but still tender, the way I like it. Quite memorable.
I’m not a fan of the curly yellow Hokkaido style noodles used but thankfully they were not too thick. The halved tamago included in the ramen was also up to standard. As you can see from the pictures, there’s a layer of collagen and fat on top of the rich broths so it’s definitely not for the faint hearted. My friend and I couldn’t finish at least a third of our noodles because of the richness of the broth. And apparently you can even request for double or triple noodle portions! Personally while I thought it was not bad and worth a try, I wouldn’t really come back because the broth is too rich for me and I prefer the skinny noodles in Hakata ramen :) You can read about my favourite ramen place in Singapore here.

Donati, UNIPV, has been invited to present a talk at the 17th International Conference on Advanced Laser Technologies (ALT09), 26 Sept - 1 Oct 2009, Antalya, Turkey, and selected the MEGAFRAME project as a topic. [MEGAFRAME] June-Sept. 2009: MEGAFRAME reports on the design and characterisation of 32x32 TDC/TAC plus single photon avalanche diode (SPAD) pixel arrays implemented in a 130nm imaging process, to create a single chip TCSPC sensor (see the IISW, CICC and ESSDERC Publications). To the best of our knowledge, this work constitutes the largest single-chip array of fully integrated TDCs/TACs so far reported. Each TDC/TAC-SPAD ensemble measures only 50x50μm2. It is thus one of the smallest ever demonstrated with deep sub-nanosecond time resolution. [European R&D] July 2009: The European Commission has explicitly included single-photon and smart pixel based time-correlated imaging R&D into the ICT Call 5 Photonics 2009 topics (see EC Photonics unit website). This is fully in line with MEGAFRAME’s pioneering results, which proved that single photon arrays can indeed be implemented in deep sub-micron CMOS for time-correlated as well as intensity applications. [MEGAFRAME] July 2009: MEGAFRAME reports on the a new low noise single-photon avalanche diode (SPAD) fabricated in a 130 nm CMOS imaging process (SSE 2009). To the best of our knowledge, the DCR (Dark Count Rate) per unit area achieved in these devices is the lowest ever reported in deep sub-micron CMOS SPADs. [MEGAFRAME] May 2009: MEGAFRAME reports on the real-time hardware (FPGA) implementation of a new integration based FLIM lifetime calculation algorithm, called IEM, suitable for SPAD arrays (see ISCAS 2009). This approach enables direct lifetime calculation in parallel for every pixel. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first system that can generate real-time video-rate fluorescence lifetime images. [MEGAFRAME] April 2009: MEGAFRAME was selected as one of the exhibits of the FET09 Science beyond Fiction conference, 21-23 April 2009, Prague. E. Charbon and R. Henderson attended and presented a 3 part poster (poster 1 - poster 2 - poster 3). [MEGAFRAME] Jan. 2009: Dr. Robert Henderson, UNIED, has been invited to present a talk at the Rank Prize mini-symposium on Single-Photon Detectors, 12-15 Jan 2009, Grasmere, Lake District, UK. [MEGAFRAME] May 2008: MEGAFRAME reports on the direct integration for lifetime extraction method (IEM), a new, simple, and hardware-only fluorescence-lifetime-imaging microscopy (FLIM) proposed to implement on-chip lifetime extractions (JOSA A 2008). "130nm CMOS SPAD", invited presentation at SPIE Optics East (Sept. 2007) July/Aug. 2007: MEGAFRAME reports on the first implementation of a Single Photon Avalanche Diode (SPAD) in 130 nm complementary metal–oxide–semiconductor (CMOS) technology - see also the JSTQE paper in the "Publications" section.

Sponsors Home Welcome to the EC FET Open MEGAFRAME project! MEGAFRAME was conceived in the summer of 2004 to respond to the growing interest of the scientific and engineering community in low-cost techniques for single photon counting. The project's technology was developed on the heels of the 2003 demonstration of the first monolithic single photon counter implemented in a low-cost CMOS process. This breakthrough convinced us that much more advanced imagers based on integrated single photon counting arrays could be possible.MEGAFRAME’s long-term goal is to bring single photon imaging technology to an advanced low-cost deep-submicron CMOS platform, so that massive arrays of single photon detectors can coexist with and interface to large networks of parallel digital processing units on the same chip. The target fields are biology, physics, and medical imaging. However, any disciplines requiring time-resolved ultra-fast optical sensors are prime candidates.In MEGAFRAME we push the limits of many technologies necessary for the success of the project. The multidisciplinary effort will yield new and highly miniaturized detectors, ultra-fast integrated electronics, high-precision quantitative bioimaging systems, miniaturized optical components, and new signal processing solutions. The consortium we assembled represents Europe's leading Institutions in these fields and decades of experience in industrial and research sensor design and optics.MEGAFRAME 32 x 32 Single Photon Avalanche Diode (SPAD) array fabricated in 0.13um STMICRO imaging CMOS technology (2008-2009) An earlier 32 x 32 Single Photon Avalanche Diode (SPAD) array fabricated in 0.8um CMOS technology (2004) Detail of the earlier CMOS 32 x 32 Single Photon Avalanche Detector Array (2004) © 2014 MEGAFRAME - Million Frame Per Second, Time-Correlated Single Photon Camera [IST FP6 FET Open] |

The weather’s been nice this weekend, unfortunately. London’s parks are rammed. The seaside towns are jammed. The national parks have reported record visitor numbers. The National Trust announced free entry to its open spaces this week. Yesterday it closed those open spaces because too many people were turning up. This was the Columbia Road flower market in London today –
We’re not talking about the thickos here. As far as I can tell, the less educated are slobbed out in front of the telly. Their dream lifestyle is now reality, urged on by the government. But the selfish middle classes are badly letting us down and guaranteeing that avoidable deaths will not be avoided. FFS, why are markets and shopping centres still open?!
The idea of a total lockdown disgusts me. It goes against all my instincts, but that’s what we need right now. We need it to get off the same path that Italy walked a fortnight ago, if we still can. We are right where they were two weeks ago, and two weeks ago tomorrow Italy went into total lockdown.

Sainsbury’s (a large supermarket chain, for those in the colonies) will restrict shopping . At these times only the elderly, disabled, vulnerable, NHS and care staff can shop.
I had to nip into Sainsbury’s this morning so I can make my lunches this week. People are still not giving each other enough space. Before I went in I gave the trolley handle a good disinfectant spray. I imagined a six-foot bubble around me which I couldn’t let anyone enter. It made progress a bit of a zig-zag up and down the aisles. There was a bit of reversing too. But no-one was allowed in the bubble. I noticed that many others are still not doing this, and it was really worrying to see. I think that’s my last such trip for a while.

I just found out that I’m a “key worker”. I’ve been delivering food to supermarkets for months. We’re doing hospitals too now. That’s my working year sorted. The irony is that I must have delivered thousands of bananas this week, and when I finally get to do some shopping … no bananas left. Gee, thanks. I have a couple of bananas every day. They keep you going. Leave a few for me too.
The British government just closed all the pubs, bars, restaurants, clubs, gyms and leisure centres. It will pay 80 per cent of salaries of those at risk of being laid off. The shelves are still bare. Thanks to the Chinese disease we’ve become a socialist republic in a matter of weeks.
I say again, there must be a reckoning with the Chinese communists when this is all over. Coronavirus isn’t the first such thing they’ve incubated. If they want to play in the 21st-Century they cannot be allowed to continue with primitive diets and hygiene standards. |
en | N/A | N/A | Cameroon ing participated in the negotiations during the Uruguay Round that effectively gave birth to the WTO in 1995. In this light, Cameroon is bound by all WTO covered agreements that govern the multilateral trading system, among which arethe Agreement on Anti-dumping (implementing article VI GATT) or SCM Agreement (implementing article XVI GATT).
What is dumping under these legislations?
Under article 21 of the 2016 law and article 17 of the implementing Decree, a product is dumped where the export price of that product to Cameroon is lower than its normal value or that of a similar product as establisheor origin.
Secondly, where no sales of the similar product have been madere, because of the particular situation of that market or the low volume of sales in that market, such sales cannot serve as a benchmark for the determination of normal value, normal value shall be established on the basis of either the comparable price of the similar , however, that export sales to that third country are made in accordance with the same criteria; oran amount representing administrative and marketing costs, overheads, and a reasonable profit margin.
“Similar product” has not been defined in the law. But the law states that, it shall have the meaning contained in the Agreement on Anti-Dumping. This Agreement provides that the phrase “similar products” (produits similaires) has an interchangeable meaning with “like products”, which is the phraseology the Agreement extensively uses. Similar products same definition applies when dealing with issues touching on trade in subsidized products.
Another important phrase that is employed time and time again when dealing with dumping practices or trade in subsidized products that needs to be defined is the “domestic industry”. Its definition is very important because remedies to dumping or trade in subsidized products are meant to protect such industry from injury or threat of injury, or material retardation. As per the 2016 Law, domestic industry shall refer to domestic producers of like products whose aggregate
What is trade in subsidized productsLaw, a product shall be considered subsidized where it enjoys direct or indirect assistance for production, processing, export, or transportation in the country of export or origin.
in cases where there is a practice of the public authorities to give direct transfer of funds (in the form of grants, loans, and equity infusions) or in the form of loan guarantees).
where the government revenue that is otherwise due is forborne or not collected.
where the s.
finally in circumstances where the public authorities make payments to a funding mechanism, or entrust or direct a private body to perform one or more functions of the types listed above, which are normally within their remit, in such a way that the practice followed does not materially differ from the normal practice of the public authorities.
A “benefit” shall be considered conferred on the recipient where the terms of the financial contribution from the public authorities are more favourable than the commercial terms which the recipient could have obtained on the market, or would have had to pay in comparison with the rules of the ordinary law. In other words, where the financial benefit is in the form of a loan that follows the interests rates set in place by the norms and ordinary law governing the banking sector, then they cannot be considered a financial benefit in the definition of a subsidy.
Determining the advantage conferred requires that a difference would have to be drawn between the amount the beneficiary pays under the favourable conditions created by the public authority and that which he would have paid under the normal market conditions.
the duties and taxconcerned to Cameroon specifically intended to offset the subsidy.
The ratio of subsidy in percentage terms shall be calculated as the ratio of the amount of subsidy to the value of the sales of the product concerned from the subsidy during the twelve months investigation.
In connection to this, there should be an establishment of a causal link between the dumping practice or the trade in the subsidized products with the injury or threat of injury to similar products or domestic industry. In establishing these according to article 40 of the implementing Decree, the investigating authority set up by this Law (Committee on Anti-dumping and Subsidies) shall undertake an objective examination of the volume of imports of the product under consideration during a given period; the effect of such imports on the prices of like domestic products in the domestic market; and products. In so doing to establish injury or material retardation of domestic industry, they shall rely on hard facts and not allegations or conjecture of remote possibility.
whether there has been an increather ablike products over a period of twelve months preceding the initiation of the investigation.
imports of the product under consideration in comparison with the prices of the like domestic product, or whether such imports have the effect of significantly undercutting prices or preventing price increases which would otherwise have occurred. In this case, price undercutting shall be deemed existent where the imported product is sold at a price lower than that of like domestic product.
the actual and potential decline in sales, profits, production, capacity utilization.
the actual or potential influence on the prices.
the magnitude of the dumping margin.
actual or potentialfinancing, and investment capacity.
Once an affected domestic industry or agency can establish the dumping practice or trade in subsidized products including the causal link between such unfair practices and the injury or threat thereof to similar domestic products or industry, the party can make a request for an investigation in the form of a written application to the Ministry in charge of External Trade. The content of the application shall be treated confidential unless the applicant notifies the authority of the contrary. Nevertheless, he must make a summary of facts which are not to be treated as confidential.
Within 30 days of receipt of this application and study of the content, the Ministry in charge of trade shall order an investigation by the Anti-dumping and Subsidies Committee. All interested parties shall be notified of the commencement of such investigation. Amake themselves known to the Committee within 30 days upon publication of the investigation notice.
Questionnaires for data collection shall be issued out to domestic importers and foreign exporters through various diplomatic channels as the case maybe to elicit information to support the investigation. Upon receipt of the responses of such questionnaires, an initial evaluation shall be drawn up to determine the dumping or trade in subsidized products, a causal link and the injury or threat thereof to domestic industry, and the preliminaryjournal or newspaper. Such publication must still take into consideration the confidentiality of information provided.
Where such an assessment establishes a preliminary determination existence of dumping or trading in subsidized products, the Minister in charge of External Trade may recommend to the Minister in charge of Finance to institute precautionary measures in the form of provisional anti-dumping duties or countervailing measures (as the case may be) in order to avoid further or irreparable injury to domestic industry. This may take the form of ordering the payment of a deposit in cash or guarantee equal to the dumping margin or subsidy. Suchshall be published in the official gazette or newspaper empowered to publish legal notices in Cameroon.
It is important to highlight that, such antwelve months and can be exceptionally extended to a period of eighteen months e. Likewise, the anti-dumping or countervailing duty must correspond to the margin of dumping. This is to provide once more a level playing field between the imports and the domestic industry in terms pricing.
at the expiry of a period of one year after the imposition of the final duty by the authorities suo motu, or upon the request of the parties concerned. Such review shall determine whether to revise, eliminate, or maintain the anti-dumping or countervailing duties.
Within ninety days prior to the expiry of the period of implementation of the anti-dumping or countervailing duties, suo motu or at the request of the representative of the domestic industry. Such a review shall be to determine whether to extend the period of application of the duties and shall cover both dumping or specific subsidy and injury.
at any time, at the request of the exporter or producer in the country of the product under consideration who did not exhibit the product in Cameroon during the period of the investigation prior to successful application of the duties and whose exports of the product are subject to said duties. The review will be carried out to determine the individual anti-dumping or countervailing duties for such exporter or producer.
At Dayspring Law Firm, our lawyers make up a handful of practitioners in Cameroon with expertise in trade remedies, who can effectively navigate or pilot clients from all sectors and industries through trade remedies procedures relating to dumping and trade in subsidized products. We assist clients at all levels ofpreparation or review of questionnaires for data collection, due diligence, actual data collection in both local and markets and export markets, determination of the margin of dumping or subsidy, determination of the extent of the injury or threat thereof on the domestic industry in addition to the causal link, filing of applications or defence statements in dumping actions and actions of trade in subsidized products, request for review of definitive dumping or countervailing duties. We have equally established professional networks with all stakeholders and the Ministries concerned, private detectives, bailiffs, members of the security forces, the Anti-dumping and Subsidies Commission, customs officials to efficient during investigations. |

She'll pull us both out, and lay us next to each other, and we think "Is this it? Are we going to be made?" We try to look tractable, reasonable, pretty. We try to look as if we'll get along. It's harder on the poor fabric than it is on me—if I get made once and it turns out badly, there's always a chance she'll blame the fabric, or fiddle with the fit, and try again. But once a piece of fabric is cut, there's no second chance. They're hardly ever recut into something else, at least in this house.

Then it was the carrot dress (in the bigger sizes). And then it was just me and the rutagbaga dress. Nobody knows what a rutabaga is! One girl who tried her on called it a "dirty turnip"!

We’d been doing all right. Sure, the closet was crowded, and she didn’t use nice hangers, and we weren’t what you’d call organized, but that didn’t seem to matter. We all felt rescued, in a way. She was a collector, she didn’t really wear us very often, but we weren’t in a box or in some little girl’s dress-up chest, and that’s saying something. I personally didn’t mind not being carefully sectioned off — jackets and even pants can have real interesting opinions, you know. Once you get to know them you see they’re really just like you. I don’t hold with prejudice. And some of those evening gowns, well, they’re so fluffy and light, they’re just like kittens. You can’t be tired or mad with a kitten.
Lots of the new ones had hems hanging down, or a seam that had come undone, or lost buttons. Sometimes she’d get them fixed up right away, but sometimes she didn’t. If she didn’t we tried to be careful, not jostle them too much. Those undone seams can be painful, and nobody’s happy without all their buttons. I myself had been missing a few when I came, so she pulled the rest and gave me a whole new set. They’re not quite like my old ones but I get by all right. And they’re a good deal whiter and shinier than the ones I used to have, that’s for sure.
Now, some of us say they knew immediately that the new one was going to be trouble, right when they first set eyes on that bag, but I think they’re just trying to make themselves more important. If they had really known, wouldn’t they have done something? If just one of them had slipped off the hanger and covered the bag, it would have been weeks until they were hung up again and she was let loose — we all know that.
Me, I didn’t know a thing. I was talking with a suit about how she went to vote once—which sure was interesting, I can tell you—and I didn’t even look up until we got shoved a little more to the side to make room.
And, Lordy, did the new one need room. I’ve never seen so many ruffles. And red? Redder than fire. That was a dress, all right, and didn’t she know it. Not a seam out of place, or a hitch in her zipper, either. Coulda been new, except that she came in a flimsy plastic bag just like the rest of us had. New dresses like that come on their own hangers.
She didn’t set out to be trouble, I’ll give her that. Or if she did, she hid it until she knew there was no one around who could give her any back. Sweet as pie she was, the first couple days. Talked real nice to the dresses on either side of her, asked questions, giggled a don’t-mind-me, I’m-just-silly after every answer. It wasn’t until she’d done all her reconnaissance, I guess it’s called, that she really dug in.
She’d been next to a good dress, been with us for years. Nothing red-ruffle fancy, just a solid, dependable office-y type shirt dress. Full skirt, all original buttons in good condition. Even her white collar hadn’t yellowed or frayed. So despite being unglamorous, she had a bit of her own glory, in that she got worn probably more often than any of the rest of us.
And of course this meant there was a new dress next to Red, again. Now this dress was fairly young, as dresses go. Cute, cute as a button, with her short skirt and big patch pockets, all covered in big flowers, big as plates. She was young, but she wasn’t dumb, and at first she didn’t want anything to do with Red. She and the shirtdress had been real good friends, at least until Red came. So she was smarting a bit at being ignored for Red, and mad at what Red had done to her friend.
Now that other dress — the one on Red’s other side, away from miss miniskirt — well, let’s just say she wasn’t well-liked, before Red came. She had a bit of chip on her shoulder (as well as a stain she always moaned about, wishing she had a brooch to hide it). She’d been a good solid dress, lots of faculty dinner cocktail parties and such; she’d always claimed to have met a Nobel Prize winner once, but since she couldn’t remember his name, that tended to diminish the tale. Not that we’d know the name, but it would have added something. Or added more than “he wore a c
Faculty dress was a bit disdainful of flowered-miniskirt. She’d try to pull Red aside, to make a little quip or joke at her expense, to make some snide remark about miniskirt’s callow youth. But Red wouldn’t play; she was doing to faculty what she’d done to shirtdress, all over again. And faculty couldn’t see it. She just kept trying and trying, and that made Red happier and happier to ignore her.
At this point I made up my mind to do something. If shirtdress had her head turned, that was one thing, and you had to expect that in a crowded closet relationships were going to go wrong every once in a while. But from what I could see, Red was setting out to do it again, and that made it a different thing altogether.
Red and miniskirt were doing a lot of whispering and laughing, and I could see faculty was worried. It was obvious they were going to try some prank, at faculty’s expense. Maybe sticking her with a pin, if they could get one, to see her jump, or covering her with loose threads, or worse. Something hurtful to her dignity, which was really all she had left.
You can’t do it any old time, but I know how to pick my opportunities, and so it was the next Saturday that I got myself picked up off the hanger. All I really needed was to be tried on — I wasn’t angling to be worn all day. So once I was on I did just a little twist, and no matter what she did I wouldn’t hang straight. I can be quite uncomfortable when I try, for all that I’m washed and soft otherwise.
As you can imagine, Red didn’t like that one little bit. But she tried not to let me see that; after all, I was just an old grandma dress. Making me upset wouldn’t be worth the trouble. She acted real pretty towards me, and I didn’t let on that I’d been watching her and knew her tricks.
“I’ve been watching you. I don’t like what you’re doing. You’re going to stop.”
“Had any luck getting that tag off?”
“$79.95. Before markdown. It’s a classy price but you’ve never been a classy dress, or you would have been worn, wouldn’t you?”
Okay. Admit it. You would love to have one of these skirts, right? I'd wear mine to scare small children into behaving (and to make offhand jokes). Wouldn't you?
I don't think that they went far enough, though. Why not make this in shaggy fake fur? Preferably or pink? And then if anyone ever asked you where you got it, you could say, "Well, first I had to shoot a Muppet …"
And, in today's shameless begging for money for homeless women veterans, I thought about writing a drabble around this skirt, but it would just be "NOM NOM NOM" a hundred times … and of course I STILL . Obviously, Paypal hates me and all my works, bsome "off-widget" donations, we're really at $1382 (not $1220) right now! That's less than $125 to go!

Media captionEllen Ruffle disappeared from her home in Motherwell in 1969
Police are searching a garden in Lanarkshire in the hunt for a teacher who went missing nearly 43 years ago.
Ellen Elizabeth Ruffle lived in Annan Glade in Motherwell with her husband and two children before disappearing in November 1969.
Officers are focusing their search on the back garden of the property and a garage.
It is understood that investigators are acting on information which has given them reason to search the garden.
The search is expected to take several days.
Image caption Police have been searching the garden of Ellen Ruffle's former home in Motherwell
A specially trained police team have been using ground penetrating radar equipment provided by the Home Office to scan the garden.
The equipment has been used in similar search operations, including during the investigation into serial killer Peter Tobin.
Ellen, known to friends as Evelyn, was born in Motherwell in 1935 and on leaving school attended Craiglockhart Training College in Edinburgh.
After completing her training she then took a number of teaching posts in Singapore, Bournemouth and various schools in North Lanarkshire, including Cathedral Primary, where she was working when she went missing, aged 34.
She last seen at her home address in Motherwell on 14 November 1969. Her two young children were aged 4 and 18 months.
Shortly after her disappearance her husband took the family to live in South Africa.
It is understood her husband now lives in the Borders and her son lives somewhere in the UK, but not in Scotland. Her daughter remains in South Africa.

Police said they wereSupt Andy McKay from Strathclyde Police said: "It is now over 40 years since she went missing opefully we can provide some resolution to her family.
"I have no doubt that someone has information which can help us to find out what happened to Ellen. It wa two small children. It may be four decades since Ellen was last seen, however my officers are no less determined to find out what happened to her." |

The above nail tips were hand painted by Leeanne Colley and her team for the show. Going with the Monochromatic theme, Leeanne came up with the charcoal black and vanilla nail designs for the show. In the Monochromatic Collection, Lucian played with textures like leather as oppose to prints like his other collections. Therefore, Leeanne wanted to create texture on the nails to compliment the collection. Leeanne said “I created a combination of sharp geometrical lines to complement Lucian’s monochromatic look. The whites in the collection are winter whites, soft and creamy not stark. I’ve combined them with a rich charcoal gray and strong black accents.” |

I also have a million issues having to do with the cult. The idea of the cult as being so pervasive that it resembles everything from terror cells to a Cylon infiltration is an interesting one, but ultimately hard to swallow. I also don't see any motivation from the cultists. They seem to have plenty of money and get laid on a regular basis, so what's left?Bloodlust? |
en | N/A | N/A | The Game gets points for persistence that's for sure. The man that rallied quite a few people behind him with his "G-UNOT" campaign is now moving on to a new chase phrase and marketing scheme. The DOH movement which stands for Death of Hova (Jay-z not god) has been initiated through the Twitterverse and we know nothing is official until it's been tweeted and retweeted right?(insert sarcasm).
Available in black and white, at least the Game will make some financail gain off these situation regardless of if Jay-Z responds or not. Although rumors continue to swirl that Jay-Z is cooking up a reply track titled "Groupie Love". Only time will tell, but I won't be surprised if Jim Jones isn't the first person to sport this item. |
en | N/A | N/A | "They said, 'Are you crazy?There's nothing there, no one will go there.' But Karaköy was close to my home in Galata, and I enjoyed the historic feeling of all the old buildings there," Şenol reminisced last month over coffee at her deli/café Gram in Şişhane, another formerly sleepy Istanbul neighborhood. "I thought if we made good food, people would hear about it and come."
"Closing a restaurant is really hard, both psychologically and financially. But it's also hard to keep everyone motivated when there are no customers," Şenol said. "I kept thinking things would be better once people forgot about these [terror] incidents, but they kept happening; there was no time to forget."
While Lokanta Maya drew a largely Turkish crowd in its first couple of years of operation, sterling write-ups in the New York Times, airline magazines and other international publications brought in tourists in droves – but also created some complications. "Guests who come from abroad like to book early, while Turkish guests want to be able to call at 6 p.m. and get a table for 8 p.m. that same night," Şenol said. "After a while, they decided not to call us anymore when we were always full up for those last-minute bookings."
"Everyone I talk to in the business is thinking about getting smaller, about having less staff. Beyoğlu has been affected the most, but even the owner of a 50-year-old restaurant up in Tarabya [on the European Bosphorus shore] told me he's never seen times this bad, business-wise," Şenol said. "Our moods are so affected by all the things that are going on [in Turkey]. People want to stay closer to home; they don't feel like going out and socializing like they used to anymore."
"When I started out as a line cook in Istanbul in the early/mid-2000s, the popular thing was international cuisine. Maya drew people who were curious about my new way of doing things, who wanted to eat real Turkish food, not just kebabs, in a nice setting," Şenol said. "Compared to 10 or 15 years ago, there are a lot more chef-owned restaurants, people now know a lot more about things like good olive oil and good wine; they're more interested in small producers and regional specialties like the tomato and pepper pastes we get from Edremit or the nar ekşisi [pomegranate extract] we get from Hatay."
"But when you have few guests, it's hard to have quality food. We don't freeze anything, we're always buying fresh ingredients every day, and buying food with no additives, so it has a short shelf-life," she added. "Everything just works better in a restaurant like ours when it's packed – the food, the service, everything."
"This year isn't the best time to start something new. It's like my father used to say, 'Kütükler giderken, toplaması lazım.' When the river brings you wood, collect it and put it away," Şenol said. "When I talk to young chefs, I tell them to go abroad and get some experience there, or go around Turkey and find new ingredients and small producers; they need us, and we need them."
Even in this period of retrenchment, Şenol's thoughts still look ahead to the prospect of better times. "My decision to close Maya was mostly made in order to leave with the quality still high," she said. "That way, if I open up again somewhere else in the future, people will hopefully still remember Maya in a good way." |

I would like to know that what are the documents for marriage registration in Thailand? My boyfriend is Slovak residence and wants to get married in Thailand. Does he need an affirmation of freedom to marry form [statement saying you are single and free to get married]? Where can he get it? possible to get it at Slovak Embassy in Bangkok,Thailand ?
I really don’t know where can I get all the information from so I’m terribly sorry for bothering your time.
1- if I get married within the 90 days would i need to go back to my country and come back, or can I stay in slovakia? if i get married on the day 85 for example?
thanks so much for the web site and your help!!
my name is Jana, Im slovakian and I have 1 question.I leave for over 3 years with my south african partner,we have a child toghether. Just want to ask, even if we are not married does he need visa for Slovakia or other Schengen countries if we can prove that we have a son together and he is an EU citizen?Is enough if we have with us just our sons birth certificate???
I am a New Zealand citizen who just got married to a Slovak national in Slovakia, where we have been currently residing for the last three months. We want to go to the UK and live and work for maybe two to three months, maybe more, and I was just wanting to know if I had to apply for the EAA family member permit or can we just go and live and work there?
I don’t know whether NZ citizens need visa to UK, but I guess no. And if you don’t need visa, you don’t need the EEA family member card. But with EEA family member card some things might be easier for you.
No. He will need visa, but the process will be faster and easier. Also, the best would be to apply for the EEA family member card, so he won’t need visa anymore.
2. With permanent residence as long as you wish.
3. Yes, but you will probably need work permits in those countries. The Slovak residency does not entitle you to work in other countries.
2) How soon after can I apply for citizenship?
I am married to slovak national and staying in Bratislava. My wife (slovak national) wants to apply for divorce and her family (supporting her to apply for divorce) is looking for options to get the divorce without my presence in court. I am not willing to divorce and end this marriage as I believe divorce is not the solution for problems. Please advise if it is possible for my wife and her family to get the divorce without my signature and presence in the court before judge ? Is it possible for me to get a lawyer to ensure we don’t divorce and end this marriage as I am willing to work in this relation and solve problems ?
i am pakistani national married with solvakian girls . but uk embbasy refused my application for visa.can i still get solvakian visa from solvakian embassy .
How long do I have to work in Slovakia to get paid for maternity leave from employer ?
By marrying Slovak you are allowed to apply for Slovak residence permit (D type national visa), you are not allowed to ask for UK visa. And yes, you can then freely travel around EU, but that doesn’t mean you can work in any other country than Slovakia.
No, only after 90 days.
1. Right after the marriage. It takes 90 days.
Well, then they certainly gave you a reasoning and you are not telling the whole story… what was the reason?
I am 27 Years old Resident in The uk as a refugee 3 years ago and holder of British travel document Geneva 1951. I know my Girl Friend she is Slovak Citizenship and we want to get married in Slovakia. Could you Please tell me Do I Need a Single Certificate From The Country Where I live (UK) Or Should i submit a Single Certificate From My Origin Country ?
My girl friend is from Slovakia,currently living in UK, She was married early and need a divorce now,how long will it take? she is separately living from her husband for more than 1 year now? can she apply for divorce from UK?
What about for those who are not in a Schengen country? I am in Ireland, with my husband, who is a Slovak. What document would I need to go to Slovakia with him? |
en | N/A | N/A | One often flees to Goa for a beach retreat as it is a great place to unwind, but with a lot of exposure in the recent decade, Goa is slowly losing its charm. It has become a synonym for cheap booze. India has a stunning coastline and plenty of unexplored beaches. If you’re not too fond of the crowd and fancy an empty clean beach to yourself, it’s time to head to the southern village of Kundapura in Karnataka. It is around 260 kms from Goa and offers unspoiled stunning beaches. It is also way cheaper compared to Goa. Here are 10 reasons why Kundapura should be on your next beach vacation list.
A pristine untouched beach that stretches to four kms with a paved road alongside, one can cycle along the way. Swimming is a favourite for visitors. A beach lover’s fantasy is walking on the beach and collecting seashells on the seashore with plenty of starfish and seashells washed across the shore. Such clean water that lets you peep into the seabed with crabs, tiny seashells and other marine creatures helplessly getting swayed by the waves.
Who doesn’t love sunsets? A calm soothing sunset by the beachside. Now imagine that with a glass of your favourite drink. Kodi Beach has a shack called Kinara that will take you back to your memories in Goa. Only that the shack is better and way cheaper than Goa. Made out of bamboo and the roof covered in hay, it gives away all the beach vibes of a tropical beach holiday. Try their masala mackerel, squid roast, chicken chilly as well as other fish starters and curry.
Want to get an aerial view of the beach and do not own a helicopter! Head to the lighthouse located at the end of Kodi Beach. The steps may seem a bit tiring, but the view at the top is magnificent and worth all the trouble. Plus the rounding steps are a view in themselves. Get a panoramic view and let the wind dry away your tiredness.
At the end of Kodi Beach, the sea meets the Halady river and that is a sight to behold. It is also called as Sangam. The water here is absolutely clear and one can find several tiny fishing boats being operated by locals. They wave to tourists and travellers and are quite friendly and only speak Kannada. One can get tempted to swim at this point, however, it is not advisable to do so as the currents is very strong. A variety of sea birds such as stork, cormorant, great egret are spotted here. Kundapura is rich in peacock and peahen population and they can be easily spotted early morning near Kodi Beach.
Kundapura has several rivulets and that leads to tiny island covered by countless coconut trees. One can get into the ferry and pass through these islands getting a glimpse of the local culture. There is also a shipyard that manufactures both small and big boats and is an interesting place for a curious soul. These islands are majorly fishing villages, so get ready to bargain with the ferry guy and get amazed at the quantity of fish being caught and sold.
Located at Kumbhasi, Annegude temple is devoted to Lord Ganesha. Annegude is one of the best known Ganapati temples in South India and devotees from all over make it here. A 12 feet tall Annegude Vinayaka statue is a natural stone in the form of a very elephant itself. The temple offers free pasadam (lunch). Even if you’re an atheist, head to the temple and enjoy some simple, refreshing and light lunch made by the Brahmins. Their sweet dish, which is a made out of lapsi and jaggery is a treat.
Around 14 kms from Kundapura is the beautiful beach of Maravanthe. Located on a busy highway with river Sauparnika running alongside and a sea on the other side. This beach is clean and rough, so swimming is not advisable. It’s best for sunsets and serene to spend a couple of hours doing nothing but just daydreaming.
Head to Parijata in Kundapura town to get some lip-smacking Mysore Pak. Unlike the dry Mumbai Mysore Park, this shop has a variety of different Mysore Pak made with clarified butter (ghee). Also if you’re a sambhar, rasam fan, make sure to pick up these curry powders. Also in the town, one can find street vendors selling spices, dried tamarind and chillies at rock bottom rates.
If you’re a foodie and enjoy street food, there’s plenty of options for you in Kundapura. Famous for its buns (breakfast item), Golli Bhajji with coconut chutney, egg bhajjiyas, gobi machurian (Rs. 40 for a full plate) to Gadbad (ice cream with dry and fresh fruits). Also, try the fish thali for as cheap as Rs. 50 with unlimited serving of rice and curry. They also have their local version of cold drinks which are interesting. Also, the coconuts are pretty cheap here, one can drink a coconut every day.
The locals here are quite friendly and that is what makes it easy to visit Kundapura. Most of them talk Kannada and Hindi. With recent development, few of them now talk English. They greet you with a smile and sometimes wave at you.
For once, skip Goa. |
