en | N/A | N/A | Ford's Bridgend engine manufacturing plant will close in 2020 with the loss of 1,700 jobs, according to union officials.
Ford said that the proposed action was a necessary step to "support Ford''".
Stuart Rowley, president, Ford of Europe, said: "
The BBC reported that Ford's i – resulting in concern about the plant's viability as it was set to produce just 125,000 petrol engines a year.
R"This is dire news for the UK automotive industry and will have a knock-on effect across the domestic supply chain. Despite the heavy job losses at the Bridgend engine plant, some jobs have recently been displaced to the Midlands, due to Jaguar Land Rover commencing production of its Ingenium engine family at Wolverhampton.
"To what degree the decision to close the Bridgend plant is down to Brexit is less certain, however. Demand for diesel-engine cars has fallen away significantly across Europe and sales of plug-in EVs have only recently begun to pick up strongly – reaching record levels in March this year.
"For plants producing petrol or diesel engines, there is an urgent need to make adjustments by decreasing production capacity whilst investing in new areas of production such as electric engines, motors and batteries.
Ford's expected withdrawal from the Bridgend plant it opened in 1977 follows Honda's February confirmation that its Swindon plant will close in 2021, with the loss of about 3,500 jobs.
Ford said that it650 million in relation to the proposed closure of Bridgend.
Non-cash charges of approximately $250 million include pension expense and accelerated depreciation and amortization.

Man, I wish I could belong to New York art collective Flux Factory. I first heard of them when their president, Morgan Meis, published an article entitled “Devil’s Work” in the April 2004 issue of Harper’s. It detailed the progress of a performance/installation the group did a few years ago in the Queens Museum of Art, in which they were given a room in the museum for 3 months and left to their own devices. At first they just hung out in the room, wearing orange jumpsuits and sticking things to the walls, but then they started to get bored. One of them suggested, “We have to extend the room.” A couple of others agreed…

BIANCA SIGHED IN DISMAY. The vacuum cleaner was broken again. It was a black and blue monstrosity. When it did work properly, it pulled Bianca every which way whenever she turned it on. Sometimes she wondered what her mother would say if she bought a saddle for the vacuum cleaner and just rode it around the museum. But lately it was giving her problems. This was the second time this month that it refused to work. Bianca double-checked to make sure it was plugged into the socket properly, placed a new piece of duct tape on the cord, and then tried to turn it on once more...still nothing.
While FIRST FROST starts off a little slowly, I didn't mind because as I stated in my opening paragraph, I was in complete awe of the fabulous museum. Once Bianca discovers the truth behind the museum and has her eyes opened, the story really gets rolling. Bianca isn't in the journey alone, either. She travels between worlds with her best friend Ming, and the girls come across a travelling Prince Ferdinand and his companion Terrance. Proper males brought up never to leave a damsel in distress, they quickly accompany the girls on their journey. Each character is uniquely developed, too. They may not be deep characters, but they're a lot of fun to be around. There's the pompous prince who isn't necessarily the dashing hero girls dream of. Terrance has a mysterious, intriguing background that comes into play later on. Ming is a true friend despite her fears. And Bianca is a great example of a true hero: One who is brave in the face of danger despite the fact that she's terrified. She loves her mother fiercely and will do anything to save her. She grows so fast and becomes very powerful by the novel's end. It was a pleasure to watch her blossom. I enjoyed all of the nods to various fairy tales along the way and really appreciated the way Liz DeJesus turned ordinary fairy tale items into important objects that played a role in Bianca's journey. I ultimately had a lot of fun reading this and would pick up another book by DeJesus in the future.
I wish the background image wasn't drowned out by everything lying on top of it. I want to see more of the girl in the pretty dress, please. I want it to pop out! I do like the way the white used for the title and author were pulled from the white created from this effect of diluting the background, but I do wish the image stood out more, because it could be so striking.
This sounds like a fun read. I am definitely intrigued by the museum, as you were! Thanks for sharing your review, Bonnie; I hadn't heard of First Frost before! |
en | N/A | N/A | A new air filter will improve performance and fuel consumption, especially on an old car like the Pop’s 59 Caddy.
Everyone should know if you want more horsepower and you don’t have a huge budget performance air filter. Initially, I wanted the chromed out air cleaner unit and bought one from Original Parts Group. When it arrived in the mail I was super excited I bought a K&N chrome housing air breather. OPG said it would fit a 1959 Cadillac Coupe De Ville but when I went to install it the unit didn’t fit on my carburetor. I had to return the air cleaner to OPG and had no idea what performance air cleaner would work on a 1959 Cadillac Coupe De Ville.
K&N is now going to make it so you can search their website for a 1959 Cadillac Coupe De Ville and part number E-1910 will be the part that will show up that should fit your 1959 Caddy with a 4 7/32″ flange. Now the car breaths better, sounds better and has a little better performance and fuel consumption. |

Do Not Forget your Feet and Hands
If there's one rule out of the skincare book you must abide by, is using an eye cream. The skin under your eyes is extremely sensitive, and can easily give away if you've had a tiring day; an eye cream only aids to protect and maintain a youthful appearance throughout. "An eye cream would help you avoid undereye puffiness and dark circles. Look for an eye cream that would help with your issues and pat it on once you're done moisturizing," suggests Lalita.

Cote d’Ivoire – USA – Cooperation
“The United States takes drug trafficking very seriously and is taking action against all known traffickers. We are proud of our work with fight this scourge,” the U.S. Embassy in Cote d’Ivoire tweeted.
This statement comes just days after an international media released a report on a so-called international investigation by journalists Ibekwe Nicholas and Daan Bauwens accusing Ivorian Defence minister Hamed Bakayoko of sponsoring drug trafficking in Cote d’Ivoire.
He denounced their report as “a crude orchestration fabricated by sponsors whose purpose escapes no one’s notice.”
In his rebuttal Bakayoko wrote: "As Cote d’Ivoire’s Security Minister for more than seven years and the current Defence Minister, the results achieved in the fight against drugs are recognised worldwide.”
He claimed that these actions, which have resulted in numerous arrests, seizures and dismantling of mafia syndicates, have earned Cote d’Ivoire international praise. |

en | N/A | N/A | The crypto market witnessed record quarterly growth in derivatives trading throughout 2020, and there’s no sign the locomotive is running out of fuel. In fact, the derivatives market now constitutes roughly half of the total crypto market, with many exchanges seeing higher trading volumes in derivatives markets than spot.
Whether centralized or decentralized, derivatives platforms are proving to be pivotal pillars of the cryptosphere, serving retail and institutional traders keen to speculate on the future price of bitcoin and altcoins. They also inform spot prices and asset price discovery while contributing significant liquidity. Hong Kong-based exchange FTX is one of the market’s runaway success stories, with last year’s volumes eclipsing $250 billion and the company achieving a valuation of $3.5 billion.
To be sure, the success of FTX is a result of many things, not least the big brain behind operations – MIT graduate Sam Bankman-Fried, the second richest man in crypto according to Hurun Report’s 2020 Global Rich List (Coinbase’s Brian Armstrong is #1). But it certainly speaks to the rising interest in crypto derivatives, which allow traders to hedge their portfolio and protect against price and volatility risk.
While leveraged trading has its own risks (many exchanges now routinely offer 100x leverage), the potential for rewards is enormous, providing of course you know what you’re doing.
According to CoinMarketCap, the four dominant derivatives exchanges handle upwards of $10 billion of daily derivatives volume, with Binance out in front with $40+ billion. Even the 11th busiest exchange facilitates over $1 billion in daily volume.
Amazingly, monthly trading volumes for bitcoin futuresurpassing $2 trillion – up from $993.8 billion from the month before. Despite this being an unprecedented all-time high, the figure was just shy of $2 trillion in February. It’s entirely possible that figures will stay above $1 trillion for every month of 2021.
Remember, those figures purely cover trading on bitcoin futures. Ethereum, the number two cryptocurrency by market cap, is also attracting huge interest. Since launching on February 9, the Chicago Mercantile Exchange’s (CME) ETH futures have reached $1 billion, while derivatives open interest across all products has surged.
CME’s entry into the ETH futures market is notable, because its product is the first financially-settled ETH futures contract that is also regulated by the U.S. Having access to fiat-settled futures has long been high on the priority list for traditional traders, since it obviates the need to take custody of digital assets, something that entails insurance considerations. In another first, CloseCross – an Ethereum-based derivatives trading platform – has recently been granted a European Union MIFID license ahead of its market launch later this month.
Competition between derivatives platforms has been intensifying ever since CME launched bitcoin futures trading four years ago. This can only be a good thing for traders, who get to weigh up what each platform has to offer in terms of supported markets and maker/taker fees. This fact has compelled derivatives exchanges to improve UX, offer better rates, and innovate in terms of features.
Bingbon, for example, has rolled out a copy trading service, enabling users (known as ‘followers’ in copy trading) to mimic the trades of top-performing traders (‘copy traders’). The feature has become enormously popular, as it takes the stress out of futures trading while enabling users to earn a generous return. Followers can choose between Fixed Margin, which allows them to control the amount of margin on every trade, or Proportional Margin, wherein they set the margin on a per-unit basis for strategic copy trading.
Other exchanges, meanwhile, have expanded their offering to include derivatives on markets that couldn’t exist on spot: bitcoin hashrate futures, ETH gas price futures, defi and midcap indexes, Coinbase IPO futures, perpetual swaps and options, MOVE contracts – even futures on tokens that have yet to be launched. Matching engines have also improved across the board in recent years, as has interactive charting software and the availability of fiat on/off ramps. Binance currently offers the highest maximum leverage, at 125x.
What can we expect from the derivatives market in the year ahead? In short, more growth. Emerging defi protocols offering trustless trading will only increase inflows, with each platform looking to throw shade on its rivals. Rising mainstream adoption of cryptocurrencies, nourished by PayPal support, Tesla’s buy-in and a million other positive signals, is also likely to compel novice and seasoned traders to explore what the industry has to offer. |

All is not lost for Ireland…if they follow this World Cup plan
The situation is grim, but Ireland’s World Cup dream is still alive and now it all comes down to the thought processes of manager Martin O’Neill – and his ability to change them.
“I told the players it’s me at the end of it all. I’m the one responsible for the side, I’m the one responsible for all of things,” he stressed in the aftermath of the 1-0 loss to Serbia.

In pure mathematical terms, it would lift Ireland to 19 points into second place which is the number O’Neill stressed “we have to get on the board”.

Trusts were originally developed in medieval England as an early form of estate planning and have long been associated with the protection of assets. A Trust enables an individual (“the Settlor”) to transfer legal ownership of assets to a third party (“the Trustee”) who holds and administers those assets for other individuals (“the beneficiaries”).
The Trustee has the legal title to the assets, but has no beneficial interest and must only uNowadays a Trust is an established means of safeguarding an individual’s wealth and facilitating its enhancement and safe passage to future generations.
Potential benefits of using a Trust:
• Asset Protection – assets placed in Trust remain entirely separate from a person’s estate and therefore cans, forced heirship provisions and the imposition of exchange controls or other government regulations.
• Estate / Succession Planning – Trusts can provide an efficient means of planning for the management of assets upon death, ensuring that long term provisions can be made to fund education of children and to provide an income for family members. As assets in a Trust do not form part of the estate of a Settlor when he or she dies, trustees are able to use them for the benefit of the Trust beneficiaries without going through complex legal procedures.
• Efficient Tax Planning – Once assets are transferred to a Trust they are no longer considered to belong to the Settlor and therefore Trusts prove to be one of as well as other associated wealth taxes both during an individual’s lifetime and on death.
• Political Protection – Persons living in countries where economic or political stability could pose a risk to the security and value of family assets can take advantage of the lodgement of such assets in a jurisdiction with a proven legislative and regulatory infrastructure, such as Guernsey. Foreign governments cannot seize assets held in trust in a country which is outside their jurisdiction, unless there is proof of criminal activity.
• Family Wealth Preservation – Trusts provide an ideal method of centralising control and administration of assets and ensuring that family wealth is preserved and enhanced.
• Anonymity – Trust Deeds in Guernsey are confidential documents and are not publicly registered.
• Term deposits/Bank accounts
• Insurance or Assurance policies
• Real and intellectual property
• Unit trusts/Mutual funds
• Private company shares

It’s incredible how many people don’t recognize this fact. There is no “on” and “off” switch to this powerful force in the universe. All you need to do is embrace it and let it work for you.
To have The Law of Attraction work for you, it is crucial to understand that your life is this way because you made it that way. Now, you may say that you did not intend to be alone or have financial difficulty. However, there is a compelling concept called non-deliberate attraction. Your life is in this state because of your vibrations, either positive or negative, continually being sent out to the universe. If you think negatively, negative people and things will be attracted to you. If you feel optimistic by acting excited, enthusiastic, and happy about life, good things will happen.
- Use all your senses; immerse yourself by living via smell, touch, sound, so it feels like it is happening.
- Be the star, not the audience; don’t “watch” yourself doing something; visualize doing it.
- Get specific; imagine every step. For example, go beyond “eating more healthy” to reaching for a piece of fruit, biting into and swallowing it. Studies visualize every single step in the process.
- Practice; attracting the positive energy/things you want in life takes time, patience, and repetition.
- Keep a gratitude journal. By being thankful for what you already have, you will be creating a positive vibration toward the things you want.

The default setting in Jennifer Saunders's family is laughter. As a child in Cheshire, being in on a joke was "absolutely the best place to be". Even at her wedding to fellow comic Ade Edmondson, in 1985, her dad shouted "stupid arse" at the starstruck vicar throughout the service. And it was comedy that saved Saunders when as a rather aimless drama student in 1970s London she discovered that she got a real — and addictive — kick from making people laugh.

Scala source code is nontrivial to parse, and while many syntax-highlighting scripts or
configurations exist (for example, for editors), the complexity of the Scala language means that
they can make mistakes when encountering unusual combinations of tokens. _Harlequin_ uses the
actual Scala compiler to ensure that code is parsed exactly as it would be during compilation.
The result of parsing code contains only three different types of token—spaces, newlines and
content—which lend themselves to conversion to HTML or another format.
- Parses fragments of Scala code using the Scala compiler
- Takes a string and returns a `List` of simple tokens
- Tokens represent newlines, spaces and content, for easy transformation into other formats, like HTML
- Content includes metadata to indicate its nature
- Erroneous content may also be parsed
- Parsing is fast; a short fragment will typically take a few milliseconds
The current latest release of Harlequin is __0.4.0__.
_Harlequin_ provides only a single method, `ScalaSyntax.highlight`, which takes a `Text` value and
returns a `List[Token]`, like so:
import harlequin.*, gossamer.*
val code = t"def inc(x: Int): Unit =\n x + 1"
val tokens = ScalaSyntax.highlight(code)
The returned value, `tokens`, for this example will be the following `List`:
List(Code("def", Keyword), Space(1), Code("inc", Term), Code("(", Parens), Code("x", Term),
Code(":", Symbol), Space(1), Code("Int", Type), Code(")", Parens), Code(":", Symbol), Space(1),
Code("Unit", Type), Space(1), Code("=", Symbol), Newline, Space(2), Code("x", Ident), Space(1),
Code("+", Ident), Space(1), Code("1", Number))
Here, each token is either, a space of a particular size, for example, `Space(2)` represents two
space characters, a `Newline`, or a fragment of code, consisting of the text with a "flair"; an
indication of the meaning of that code token.
The flair will be one of the following possible values:
- `Error`, an erroneous token,
- `Ident`, a reference to a term,
- `Keyword`, a non-modifier keyword,
- `Modifier`, a modifier keyword,
- `Number`, a number literal,
- `Parens`, parenthesis,
- `String`, a string literal (including interpolated strings),
- `Term`, a term definition,
- `Type`, a type definition.
Typically, these would be mapped to different colors during conversion to markup.
It is likely that as Harlequin evolves, the set of `Flair` values will grow.

Hawa Sacko is 125 years old -- Mali's oldest person and possibly the world's. The British Broadcasting Corp. interviewed Sacko, who said she has no special secrets to long life other than her faith in God.
Her life spans three centuries but she quips to the BBC: "I can't possibly be older than my mother." The only thing keeping her out of the Guinness Book of Records, which claims the oldest living person is 10 years her junior, is the lack of a birth certificate.
Her vivid memories and firsthand accounts from the late 1800s of the West African resistance fighter Almamy Samory Toure and the arrival of French colonists allow social workers to put her age at 125, going on 126.

Thousands of protesters went to Tahrir Square -- the site of major protests in 2011 that led to the ouster of Mubarak -- after the commission's announcement, CNN reported. They chanted, "Where is the revolution?" while some vandalized Shafiq's campaign office.

According to leaked plans, the scheme would set up an Emissions Trading System (ETS) for transport and heating, creating a market price for carbon – a price that fuel suppliers are likely to pass on. over half a billion European consumers in the form of increased bills.
Scheduled to be part of a package of July 14 proposals to ensure the EU meets a 55% net emissions reduction target by 2030, it has been singled out by some capitals as something that could hurt the EU. poorest of the 27 countries. block.
Some even mention the possibility that it will trigger movements of “yellow vests” such as the often violent demonstrations that have spread across France from the end of 2018 after an attempt to increase taxes on fuel.
“It is a great risk to the will of the people to move forward with the transition,” said an EU official, of the EU’s goal of moving towards a climate-friendly economy. neutral.
If they move forward next week, European Commission policy writers promise to add social protections, including funneling some revenue from the new emissions trading system into a social fund to support needy.
But critics question whether it is wise to risk a political backlash for something they say will only indirectly influence consumer behavior, especially when the EU is already setting stricter CO2 standards for consumers. cars and energy saving requirements for buildings to reduce emissions in these sectors.
“Taking such a political risk for a limited gain, I think it’s not worth it”, Pascal Canfin, member of La République en Marche of French President Emmanuel Macron! movement Reuters.
Canfin, which caused a sensation in June by declaring the plan “political suicide”, called it a de facto regressive tax and cited a Commission analysis itself suggesting that an ETS for road transport would reduce emissions from fuel. ‘barely 3%.
Any plan proposey sector and proponents say the success can be replicated elsewhere, to encourage consumers to make greener choices.
“A carbon price is the most effective way to encourage businesses and households to reduce their emissions,” said Elisabetta Cornago, researcher at the Center for European Reform in Brussels, adding that such policies should aim to redistribute income generated to low-income households. .
The economic, political and social context of next week’s announcement is certainly difficult.
A year-long rally in the crude oil market amid hopes of a global economic recovery has already pushed energy prices and inflation rates up, as the pandemic has exacerbated existing wealth inequalities .
Polln reduction targets. But even those who support the fight against climate change are reluctant to pay directly for it.
A poll last month found that 75% of Germans reject rising fuel prices as a way to fight climate change.
In t way to meet emission reduction targets – less visible and drastic than initial hailed by some as a model system included a refund that people can claim through their annual tax returns. But in Europe, taxation remains largely in the hands of member states.
““The EU simply does not have the competence to grant direct payments,” said Michael Bloss, a European Parliament lawmaker for the German Greens, who urges the EU to target businesses instead, for example by banning sales of cars with combustion engines.
The Commission has yet to reveal details of the social fund’s policy to support people in need, such as consumers who cannot change their travel behavior due to limited transport options or because they are renting. their home and therefore cannot replace an inefficient boiler.
“It’s too much to expect people to react rationally to price signals unless actions like building renovations are made much easier and cheaper,” said Brook Riley, head of EU affairs. for insulation maker Rockwool, who said ETS revenue should be used for such measures. .
Another challenge is that poorer ex-communist countries in the east that rely more on coal-fired energy fear that an EU-wide price will hit them harder.
“A strong compensation mechanism should be in place to minimize negative social consequences,” said an official from an EU country, adding that some poorer countries have older – and therefore dirtier – car fleets. than the EU average.
Since transport and heating will only have to face CO2 costs in 2026, according to a preliminary version of the policy seen by Reuters, the spur will only be felt after the German elections in September or the French presidential race in 2022, two decisive moments for the future of Europe. political constitution.
It also leaves enough time for countries to prepare, for example by using the billions of euros available from the EU’s post-pandemic recovery fund to build charging stations for electric cars or to make buildings more fuel efficient. energy. |

en | N/A | N/A | Q340 Dr Gibson: I did not know, but Tim O'Riordan the other day, you probably know about coastal erosion, and he was saying similar things, that it was very difficult to say things because they had implications at a government level, so therefore you had to weigh it up.
Professor Beddington: I am not aware of that, I am afraid.
Q341 Dr Harris: It is a question of academic freedom, to a certain extent, is it not?
Professor Beddington: Well, there is academic freedom, which is where you publish and peer review, and then there is an issue of a responsibility if you actually have a particular public position. I do not think in this case there is much one can do to explore this in any detail. This is a particular instance, but I think it is a thing that we have to watch, and I think if this happens again in another situation, I may choose to act in a different way. I felt this was the appropriate way to respond at the time, which was to write to the Home Secretary and express my concern.
Dr Gibson: Let us move it along.
Q342 Mr Boswell: We are moving along. It will sound like nuts and bolts, but I think you will realise that it is pretty cardinal to what we are looking at. First question to you, John, and I am not sure I know the answer to this, so I am not asking the question as if I do: you as chief scientific adviser, do you report directly to the Prime Minister?
Professor Beddington: Yes, that is correct.
Q343 Mr Boswell: In practice, who do you actually see more of? Is it John Denham, as Secretary of State, or the Prime Minister?
Professor Beddington: I have seen the Prime Minister I think on four occasions in the last year.
Q344 Mr Boswell: About once a quarter?
Q345 Mr Boswell: Not regularly, not diaried in?
Professor Beddington: Not at all. But I obviously see John Denham and Paul much more regularly. My line management within the civil service is to Sir Gus O'Donnell, who I see much more regularly.
Q346 Mr Boswell: If you were to have a major concern, and I will not hypothesise what it is now, would you seek an appointment with the Prime Minister, to say, "This is cardinally important, I need to see you and brief you about this", rather than as it were going up the line?
Professor Beddington: Yes, I would.
Q347 Mr Boswell: You would not be at all frightened of doing that?
Professor Beddington: No, and indeed I have written to him on a couple of occasions about things that I felt were really important and should be treated as such.
Q348 Mr Boswell: If we turn to the latest Council for Science and Technology report, which is the one on the relationship between academia and government, pretty central, who commissioned that? Would that have been John Denham or the Prime Minister?
Professor Beddington: That was John Denham.
Q349 Mr Boswell: But presumably Number 10 would have known about it?
Professor Beddington: Yes, there is a group which meets regularly to deal with commissioning government reports, which also includes foresight, horizon scanning, work of this sort, as well as the strategy unit.
Q350 Mr Boswell: Is that run by the Cabinet Office then?
Professor Beddington: Yes, it is chaired by Jeremy Heywood, which is Number 10, I guess. Just to complete, I think the CST essentially see themselves as a body that if ministers of state ask them to do something, they will examine it, to see whether this is an appropriate thing to be doing. When the CST met with the Prime Minister last year, he specifically asked that the CST did a report on infrastructure going into the future, and they are working on that now. So it is a mix, and I think they are available to do it. Indeed, some come from their own agenda, which is important for independence.
Q351 Mr Boswell: So it is not purely reactive? They can generate?
Professor Beddington: Indeed they can, and for example, they did one on innovation in the water industry, which I think was generated entirely from themselves.
Q352 Mr Boswell: Officials and advisory councils who are supposed to report to the Prime Minister, is it important that they actually physically report to the Prime Minister, rather than the report mediated through a Secretary of State?
Professor Beddington: I think from time to time it is a very good idea that an organisation like the CST meets with the Prime Minister, and they certainly felt that, and they indicated to me pretty early on in my time with them that they felt that they would like to be more involved. I think you have had evidence from some of the members, not necessarily in this inquiry, but in a previous one. I think that is very much the feeling that I have, that this is a very well qualified body, I think that they can actually make a difference, and I think that there is real opportunity when they engage with the Prime Minister on a one to one basis. I can also say though that they also have a practice of having both ministers and senior civil servants to dinners, they have a dinner before each meeting, and people are invited. So, for example, Jeremy Heywood was invited to one, and Paul and John Denham were invited to another one, just some of the recent ones.
Q353 Mr Boswell: I think some of us would say -- you may or may not wish to comment on this -- when we went to Japan, we were very struck by the analogous institution there, who were -- I will not say seeing the Prime Minister every month, but certainly had ready and frequent access in a way that I think is not historically applied here, although it may be coming. Do you have any comment on that?
Professor Beddington: Yes, I think we need to be thinking also about other analogies. I am going to America next week to see John Holdren and the PCAST ( DN spell out) group. Advising the president there has a different frequency, and I think one of the things that I am rather keen to see happen is that we actually engage and start to think what is best practice.
Q354 Mr Boswell: This one is probably for Paul Drayson, although you may wish both to chip in. Do you feel now that GO Science might be better placed in the Cabinet Office?
Lord Drayson: I think John is best placed to speak from GO Science's point of view, but from my perspective as Science and Innovation Minister within DIUS, it is really excellent having GO Science in the same building, it enables me to develop a good and strong relationship with the government's chief scientific adviser. So although geography is not everything, I think actually having GO Science together with DIUS has its advantages.
Q355 Mr Boswell: John, do you want to add any comment?
Professor Beddington: Yes, I have answered this question before, and I think there are merits on both sides, but I think the key one is the link with both the Science Minister and the Secretary of State for DIUS, but also with the Director General for Research Councils, Adrian Smith, and that whole team, which are responsible for so much of science funding. The fact that I can walk up a floor and find Adrian Smith and his team and talk on a day-to-day basis makes a tremendous difference, whereas if I was down in Whitehall, that would be rather more difficult to do. I think that the other aspect of it, which is easily ignored, is also it is not just myself seeing Adrian Smith, but it is my officials seeing his officials on a regular basis, and I think that is the real advantage of this co-existence.
Q356 Dr Gibson: Do you have spats together, or are you just chummy-chummy? Just to get a feel of the kind of meeting.
Professor Beddington: Well, you have seen Adrian Smith, he is a tough man to have a spat with.
Q357 Mr Boswell: You have frank exchanges though.
Professor Beddington: Yes, I do not think we have disagreed fundamentally on anything, but we have, as you say, frank exchanges of views, and Adrian obviously sits on the group of chief scientific advisers that I have. One area which I did explore with him very soon on in his tenure was the importance of independent assessment of the science budgeting process, and he and I talked a lot about that. As I am sure he will have told you, his plan is to consult with a number of entities, including the Council for Science and Technology, obviously the Royal Academy and the Royal Academy of Engineering, but also the team of chief scientific advisers. We talked long and hard about that, because one alternative might have been to actually have, as it were, a group of individuals who were charged with some degree of assessment of that science budgetary process, and I think that we evolved this as a solution, and I think I agree with it.
Q358 Mr Boswell: Can you also express adequately the cross-departmental role of GO Science, given that you are located in, although I appreciate you are not formally part of, a department? This is partly, I think, a matter of substance, but it is also a matter of perception, in that if you are another department, be it the Home Office or DEFRA for example, are you seen as them and not part of us, if you see what I mean?
Professor Beddington: I think I can probably do it by example. Quite a lot of the last two or three weeks has been spent dealing with swine flu. I went in and immediately discussed it with the Department of Health, and it was agreed I would chair an independent science advisory group in emergencies. I am co-chairing it with Sir Gordon Duff, who was chairing the independent group on influenza. So I chair now an independent group, I have co-opted independent scientists on to that, that is the group that independent of the Department of Health and HPA provide advice to COBR on this particular pandemic. So that is the role that I play there. In the case of other activities, for example I have been quite closely involved in providing advice on aspects of the CONTEST strategy, which is straight into the Home Office, and I have been involved in regular meetings, I sit on the CONTEST board and I sit on the science and innovation board of CONTEST, so there is a fair engagement with that. In the case of DEFRA, I have been making one of my agendas to be the importance of food and water in the future, and I think DEFRA are well aware of that, but I also chair the research panel of the food strategy taskforce of the Cabinet Office, and I go to -- sorry, I am going on and on, but I attend MoD's science advisory council, and so on.
Q359 Dr Gibson: Do you ever get back in the lab at all? Do you ever talk to young people in the lab? David King used to say he did that on a Friday at Cambridge. Have you got a chance to do that, with all these committees?
Professor Beddington: I certainly do not get a chance to talk to anybody in a lab because I have not been in a lab since I was about 17, wearing a white coat, but I certainly talk to modellers and people of that ilk at Imperial College. But you raise a good point, Chairman. I have been down to visit a number of laboratories, where I really think it is important to actually find out what people are doing, what they are thinking; you know, these are civil servants, and what excitement there is. So I have visited Rutherford Appleton, I have visited Culham, I have been to Pirbright, I have been to VLA, and so on. |

Do I have long COVID—and if not, what are the chances I’ll get it eventually? Long COVID is, quite possibly, the great enigma of our time.) Those who’ve had repeat COVID infections, regardless of severity.
If you’ve survived COVID unscathed, the odds aren’t necessarily in your favor next time around. A preprint of a study published earlier this month on ResearchSquare found that risk of long COVID, hospitalization, and death increased with each COVID reinfection, Azola says.
2) Those who had a high viral load during their COVID infection.
The aforementioned study also found that those with auto-antibodies circulating were at higher risk. Only 6% of long COVID patients with auto-antibodies had been diagnosed with an autoimmune condition before COVID, researchers wrote. “They seem to have an increased number of antibodies in their blood, but we don’t know why or how,” Azola saysng C.
There is conflicting data about how much vaccination reduces one’s risk of long COVID. “Some studies say a lot, some say 10%, but the overarching message is that vaccines decrease the risk of long COVID,” Azola says.
Unfortunately, most long COVID risk factors are out of our control and, perhaps, even our ability to know if they apply to us. The things in our control, Azola says: vaccination, masking, and social distancing. |

en | N/A | N/A | I had the pleasure to try out the new dishes on Ding Dong's menu one fine day for lunch and I'm happy to report that Head Chef Jet Lo and Chef-Owner Ryan Clift of Tippling Club did not disappoint. It's always a bit tricky when you take old familiar Asian favourites and try to come up with something refreshing, because palates might resist change if not coddled and persuaded along.
collaboration with Tippling Club's Head Bartender Kamil Foltan to concoct magical potions like the Stylo Milo ($20), a dessert-style cocktail of Hakushu distillers reserve, green chartreuse and Milo concentrate served in a crumpled green cup. I totally dug the Ca Phe Sua Da 3 ($21) made with Vietnamese coffee, VSOP cognac, Amaro and agave nectar and the Ding Dong Sour 2.0 ($20)! In those cocktails you'll find ingredients like jackfruit, pi pa gao, ba kwa, yuzu.. all Asian flavours incorporated into alcohol.
For food we've tried a medley of items, all delicious and prepared with the finest attention to details. First we had the Vegetable 'Kon Lao Me' ($18) – a rendition of the traditional noodle dish from Chef Jet's hometown, Sabah in Malaysia, that substitutes noodles with shredded root vegetables, and served with sliced Mangalitsa pork imported exclusively from Hungary. Next, the savoury 'Nan Ru' Pork Ribs ($17) combines both red and white fermented bean curd with a ginger and apricot sauce that's made in-house.
Ding Dong has managed to stay on top of the dining scene with fresh, new variations on Asian dishes drawing from the young but talented Chef's background and family history. For something more of a exploratory dining experience and less of the 'I need to feel stuffed with carbs and curry' type of meal, go to Ding Dong.

en | N/A | N/A | Google search helps provide inauguration subtext
21 January 2009 4:11 pm GMT
Itzhak Perlman? Isabel Toledo? Simple Gifts? Huh?
The phenomenon was visible on Google Trends, a service that shows which search terms are rapidly rising in use.
Inauguration-related searches were hot on Tuesday, according to Google Trends. Google
According to the U.S. results, Toledo, who designed First Lady Michelle Obama's dress, bubbled up to fifth place on the list earlier in the day. Once the ceremony began, up came violinist Perlman (ninth place), cellist Yo-Yo Ma (12th place), composer John Williams (26th place), and the variation on the Simple Gifts melody (14th place) that he wrote and the musicians played. Aretha Franklin rose up to third place for a time, too, and even "My Country, 'Tis of Thee" ranked 21st at one point.
People were curious about politicians, too--Sen. Dianne Feinstein made it as high as eighth place, and "Dick Cheney wheelchair" was 91st place.
More interesting, perhaps, is that in aggregate, every single one of the top 100 Google Trends searches were related to the inauguration on Tuesday. Many had to do with people's evident desire to find news about it or a place to watch a streaming video.
Update 7:39 a.m. PST January 21: See this Google blog post for some more details about the phenomenon. For instance, there was a lull in regular search in the United States while people watched the inauguration, and 12 percent of inauguration-related search queries came from outside the country.

President of Poland visits Mexico to promote bilateral trade
Poland considers Mexico as one of the priority countries to do business outside the European Union, which is why the country's president, Andrzej Duda, toured Mexico last week.
Bancomext and Polish authorities prepared a list of business opportunities, among which include boosting sectors such as beverages, metalworking, electrical, electronic, and airspace connectivity as will happen soon with the opening of a Warsaw-Cancun flight.
Poland's Economy Secretary Jerzy Kwiecinski commented that his country is very optimistic, as it aims to diversify and believes that Mexico will become its gateway to Latin America.

Steve Lindberg, D-Marquette, offered the following amendment (defeated on an unrecorded “voice vote”) toon Oct. 1:
When the department determines that the closure of a correctional facility is warranted … (it must) fully consider the potential economic impact (on the community, and) … make it a high priority to close a facility for which the local economic impact is minimized.
On that last point — keeping prisons more expensive — several amendments were also offered recently to prohibit cost-saving privatization, and although these too were defeated on unrecorded “voice votes,” Democrats weren’t the only legislators opposing outsourcing.
According to MIRS News, Rep. Ed McBroom, R-Vulcan, was one of several GOP members supporting a Democratic amendment to halt the closure of a state reformatory for juvenile delinquents, and Rep. Rick Outman, R-Six Lakes, cited this as the reason he voted against the “omnibus” budget of which prison spending was just one part. The expectation is that these “juvies” would instead be housed in a privatized prison that former Gov. Jennifer Granholm promised the prison guards union she would shut down — a promise she kept in 2004.

en | N/A | N/A | For mystery writers and crime novelists, details have always been important. It is their belief that these tiny little clues, that are perhaps hidden inside an idea as to confuse the reader, are the ones in charge to point out who the murderer (or the character who committed the crime) is. I am pretty much afraid to say that they're absolutely right.
Deduction is mainly based in observation. And observation is naturally based in the context. One should not search for something somewhere it is most unlikely for it to be. Not impossible, though. There's a truly thin line between being entirely right and entirely wrong. My point is that one should be very careful in order to cross not these two limits.
Deduction is an instrument that needs to be forged, but once finished, it can do real magic.And with this "magical tool", anyone with good eyesight and enough brains can realize things other people can't.
The important thing here is to learn how to see beyond what we should be seeing.

en | N/A | N/A | Print Email Font Resize49ers' Willis to Cardinals: Forget about runningBy Daniel [email protected]:
Patrick Willis said if the Arizona Cardinals are going to capture the NFC West crown Monday night, they will have to do so through the air.The ground is closed."We're not worried about the run,'' the 49ers linebacker said. "Wus." Such a proclamation might come as a surprise to the Cardinals, who come into the game at Candlestick Park averaging 135.0 rushing yards over their past five games.Like the 49ers, they've been aiming for a more balanced offense. Arizona rolled out 113 yards on the ground last week against Minnesota's third-ranked rushing defense."I think anybody would tell you that if you're too one-dimensional in this league, it's hard to be successful,'' Cardinals coach Ken Whisenhuntrunning football team in the league, but for a long time we were the worst team. We could only move it by throwing the football." Tim Hightower has averaged 6.9 yards per attempt over his past three games. Beanie Wells ranks third among rookie rushers with 517 yards.Bring it on, Willis said."We're not worried about that,'' he said. "But we will have to stop the pass." The 49ers rank fifth in the NFL in rushing defense and 27th against the pass.Advertisement
Michael Crabtree leads NFL rookies with 58 receiving yards per game. His yardage total (406) already ranks as the seventh-best rookie season in 49ers history.But there's another number: Stats Inc. lists Crabtree among the NFL leaders with seven dropped passes."Drops?" he said. "What are you talking about?" Crabtree couldn't recall any."No,'' he said. "If they were on the sideline or something. Or too high or something."One missed connection came in the end zone last week at Seattle. Late in the fourth quarter, quarterback Alex Smith tried to hit Crabtree from 16 yards out. But — as Smith said after the game — a heavy rush forced him to throw the ball too soon. The play was designed to go to the back of the end zone, but the pass arrived much earlier, at the goal line.Crabtree got credit for a drop, at least on the stats sheet."I didn't know what was going on,'' he said, recalling the play Saturday. "As soon as I turned around, the ball was behind me and (a defender) was about to hit me."Most of the plays have looked much better.n, Crabtree ranks seventh among rookie receivers with 32 catches.Jerry Rice's team rookie record of 927 yards in 1985 looks safe. But among other top rookie seasons by a 49er, Crabtree is within range of No. 4 Earl Cooper (567 yards), No. 5 Terrell Owens (520) and No. 6 J.J. Stokes (517).Crabtree said he doesn't pay much attention to such numbers — good or bad."I'm not too worried about anybody else,'' he said. "I'm worried about my teammates." Left tackle Joe Staley (knee) is listed as questionable for Monday's game. The 49ers indicated they might wait at least one more week and leave Barry Sims as the starter. Staley said he would be a game-time decision, adding, "I'm not going to be stupid about it." Linebacker Takeo Spikes (hamstring) and defensive back Marcus Hudson (back) also are listed as questionable.Print Email Font ResizeReturn to Top RELATED |

Dr. Cohen called it an historic and emotional day, pressing the vaccine's 95% efficacy rate. "You cannot get Covid from the vaccine," she added. "It imitates the virus to help create the antibody defense if the real germ attacks."
"Our N.C. team spent months preparing and now we are moving our plan into action," Cooper said. "But supply is still very limited."
"We spent months and months creating a database to know who got the first dose and when to followup with a second dose," the governor said. "We are working together with healthcare providers, making sure there is a lot of communication and it's spread out across the state."
"I think it will be well into the spring until the vaccine is widely available," Cohen speculated. "It will take time for that vaccine supply to build up in North Carolina."
"A negative test doesn't give you a free pass," Cooper reminded. "It just makes you safer."
"I know we are getting numb to these numbers," Cohen said, "but take a moment to realize who these people are: family, friends, loved ones. Too many North Carolinians are dying. Together, we can protect each other from this pandemic and make sure our hospitals can serve everyone." |

The reality is, there's no shortage of men willing to start females; but there is a great shortage of women willing to put aside their wasteful lifestyles and make-work "career" and commit to the Trad life.
Sorry I'm having a brain-fart. Which link is the Noonan one? Can't find it to tell what it actually is. If the issue's inequality, I can't say I care too much about it although the point Spandrell makes here has a lot of merit, and debt forgiveness/jubilees are a great idea regardless of how much (or if) you care about inequality: jubilees are bad for debt and good for getting debt sidelined from society. It's currently far too central to everything. Sorry, not being deliberately evasive; will read Noonan if it's interesting. Just can't see where it is. Peggy Noonan is too tame, conservative and outdated to be of much interest here, of course. An excellent writer, she is nevertheless a Roman Catholic (like me) of an earlier generation (sort of like me) that just can't quite grasp (hopefully not like me) the Democalypse in Europe and North America. I do not wish to make too much of her article, but this particular article is somewhat interesting, quite well written, and perhaps pertinent in view of your remarks. This is why I have linked it.
I envy you. I'd very much like to convert but am deeply worried that I'll be the stupidest, weakest and worst Catholic ever. Will read the article right now. Thank you.
Ah right, ok. Yeah when she says "hard left" she means anti-capitalist. The trouble is, I'm not at all sure that that's true at all. Even AOC isn't really anti-capitalist she's just welfarist and envyist. I don't see anyone on the left, even the hardest eco-warriors, proposing to do anything about the out-of-control consumerism: travelling, living the high life, obsession with gadgets and trinkets, wastefulness of all sorts, and of course debt instead of saving. These could be left-wing causes, but they're not. They're actually right-wing causes now.
Sorry for triple post >.< Redistribution isn't anti-capitalism: redistribution imposes a bar to jump over that punishes small and independent privately owned businesses far more than it punishes corporations, so corporations are quite glad of the help. The recent tweet from Ben&Jerry's about supporting the Green New Deal is an example of this. As well as opposition to consumerism, I'd tend to say that the stock market itself is a toxic institution that behaves much like democracy (as in Hoppe, Moldbug) by prioritising the short term and smearing ownership between a shifting coalition of temporary stewards. Truly private businesses where someone in particular owns a specific thing for all time - is very different to a publicly traded company. It's not actually a mystery that egalitarians, redistributists and socialists love capitalism nowadays.
I suspect that the European Miracle had less to do with being hard on debtors, and more to do with the unprecedented explosion of human capital since the late 15th century. For instance, Great Britain and the United Provinces had a literacy rate of greater than 50% by the mid-17th century. This was an order of magnitude higher than anywhere else outside core Europe.
I wonder if Protestantism insisted on common folks being able to read the Bible because plenty of common folks were already smart enough that it seemed plausible they will be able to learn to read and if yes, did somehow the Black Death select for that or what?
I'm *very* skeptical than your average peasant in Luther's age could make better sense of the bible than your average Boomer today. What Protestants came up with over the decades was increasingly weird and wacko and just outright insane.
Black Death - Probably not. Protestantism - There have been several studies directly linking uptake of Protestantism and higher literacy rates centuries later (above and beyond the other cultural/historical characteristics of those regions). Apart from Judaism, it might be the one demonstrably human capital-improving religion (at least historically).
A great legacy of the Reformation, I think anyway, was the replacement of piety with scholarship. The holiness ladder became less salvarific and more educational. The jump to private interpretation of everything followed. Every man became his own bishop. The end to religious and moral standardization. The spiritual condition of civilization has followed a path to atomization (and I would argue oblivion) that is the inverse of the technical and economic development and standardization of the modern world. I think you are correct that Protestantism, in general, is human capital improving religion. One has the moral and ethical framework to pursue knowledge, wealth, and material success. The famous and extreme example of John D. Rockefeller, the Baptist Sunday School teacher comes to mind..... That being said, the Protestant Reformation as whole contained several competing and perhaps contradictory movements...the English Civil War is a undoubtably a manifestation of that. And indeed, the spirit of religious sedition permeated nearly every Anglophonic colonial experiment and was a key contribution factor in the American separatist struggle, it was a very low-church environment. There was a very readable book published a few years ago titled '1775' by Kevin Phillips that spent some time on exploring the religious/ideological matrices of colonial life. My feeling is that the impious nature of American life at birth combined with the present American global dominance contained the tragic seeds of much of our current predicament. Maybe I will explore this further in its own post another time. Of course, this intellectual liberation of the Protestant world perhaps contained the seeds of its own obliteration.
European miracle is older than the Industrial Revolution and even the Protestant Reformation. The famous "blue banana" started diverging around 1200. By the time the Protestant Reformation hit "core Europe" was considerably wealthier and more advanced than China. Most important factor was probably the Commercial Revolution. Trade fairs, bills of exchange, Templar banking, etc. I'm not really sure how to explain that. The standard model I guess is that Europe was politically fragmented so competing sovereigns tried hard to attract merchants, bankers, artisans, etc. There might be something to that considering the great progress of the Hellenistic era to the stagnancy of Pax Romana. But India historically has been relatively fragmented as well. The Church's focus on accurate time-keeping probably had a non-trivial impact as well. Not only on coordination, but also the development of technology (metallurgy, wood-working, machinery, etc.).
The idea that the European miracle predates the Reformations jives well with my thoughts. There were plenty of good fundamentals set in place and hard at work long before the 95 theses. I would submit the Renaissance as more accurate lift off point for European supremacy, one that contributed greatly to the Reformation's existence. Both in helping to exacerbate the problems in the Church that the reformers hoped to fix as well as providing the framework for the intellectual (and inevitable military) struggle. Of course, the Renaissance itself did not materialize ex nihilo but that's a whole different conversation.
It's tempting for those of us of on this side of the aisle (alt-right, NRx, far-right, dissident right, paleocon, whatever) to look to the wisdom of the past for solutions. This isn't one where that applies, for a variety of reasons: 1 - The vast majority of money today is debt When a bank makes a loan, it places a credit in the borrower's account. This credit is newly created money. When debts are repaid, the money is in fact destroyed. Very little money today is physical currency. Historically most money was circulating coinage, though late in the gold standard era most money was also debt. This is why economists describe recessions following financial panics as "balance sheet recessions". Overextended borrowers |
en | N/A | N/A | Amending Finance Bill To Be Drawn Up in Next Few Days (Govt. Chief)
“In view of the changes linked to the economic and global situation resulting from the Covid-19 crisis, and their repercussions on the various hypotheses having framed the drafting of the 2020 finance law, we are going to prepare an amending finance bill in order to activate the recovery plan for the national economy,” the head of government said before the joint session of parliament.
He explained, in this regard, that the amending finance bill requires visibility of the hypotheses on which we should be relying at the global and national levels that take into account forecasts related to the decline in the growth rate, the impacts of drought and the decrease in tax revenues, noting that the general guidelines will be set to present it to the Council of ministers, prior to its presentation to the Council of government and Parliament.
Aware of the importance of proactive measures for the post-Covid period, the government is working to put in place an ambitious plan for the promotion of the national economy, as an important lever for accelerating the recovery of national economic activity and strengthening its capacity for post-coronavirus exploration, he said.
He stressed that the approach adopted to develop this project should be comprehensive and integrated, based on horizontal mechanisms separately, as well asglobal value chains and domestic supply and consumption.
The head of government underlined the importance of reflecting on the mechanisms to be mobilized to allocate the necessary fundso that they can resume their activity, referring to public procurement as a means of revitalizing the national economy, reviewing its priorities and methods with a view to supporting local production and consumption.
El Otmani confirmed the need to redouble efforts to address certain structural problems, the importance and urgency of which had been highlighted during the health crisis, including issues related to the informal sector and social protection.

en | N/A | N/A | In 1776, we were relatively happy with a government that would merely,” but now, on topthink we have the right to higher education, the best medical care, affordable housing, guaranteed insurance, minimum wages, social security and government relief from every possible personal or public tragedy that comes down the pike. And the biggest expectation of all is that someone who has more money than you do should pay for it.
As big as our problem is with our level of expectations, it’s still secondary to our problem of assuming that someone else’s money is better off being used to serve our own personal wants and needs. As much as we all want to expand our expectations of what is and isn’t a basic liberty, we’re fools if we think we can do it by dictating what is and isn’t a legitimate salary, income, or net worth.
This isn’t a plea to pass a new tax levy or to restructure the tax code, it’s an appeal to come to terms with the illegitimacy of our current level of expectations. You get what you pay for, and more importantly, you only earn what you work for. And, regardless of what we think we’re owed or what we believe we are entitled to, if we don’t recommit ourselves to providing the level of services we seek, we shouldn’t expect anything other than disappointment. |

He felt the room begin to spin out of control. “What did you say?”
She was finally able to shake free of his tight grip. “I’ve already said everything I have to say to you.”
She squeezed her eyes shut as she shook her head. “No, I don’t.”
Trey took the blame for everything that happened in the book too easily. Some of it needed to land on Sierra’s feet and I felt like she was just using to see if she really loved her fiancé or not. Oh and he turned out to be a real “winner”. Ugh! He and Trey’s off and on girlfriend, Megan, were a pair. They were the perfect foil, if you will, for the relationship blunders between Sierra and Trey. In fact all ofwritten. I can’t wait for Josh, Marisa, and Lexi’s books. 🙂

“I enjoy your tandem blog honesty. Hilarity!”
@Rob: I’d told him I’d never do this but since we were kinda on the subject, I just threw it on in. lol
””
’tis true for me. lol.. I Don’t want to picture my beau with others.
CBG- you are def telling the truth! I had a chexual relationship with an ex after my divorce. Neither one of us was seeing anyone else, I didn’t have to go out and meet anyone and establish a relationship (cuz I don’t do one night stands), really didn’t want to get in the dating scene yet. So, that was a way to still get chex, but not get with anyone new. We still do talk pretty frequently.
@Rob: Very good tactic… I know he’s learned some things from me from reading, also.
@Nicki and Everyone
Let me clear this up since it was so poorly portrayed. The ex I referred to made fockership advances toward her every so often before I came into the picture. And this was someone she considered a friend. Why I had no idea but nonetheless. So I was concerned with the fact of if he would be respectful if she got into a relationship. That was my concern and she says he hasn’t so I am cool with that.
The other guy…my point was you don’t have to be friends or more specifically just because you talked to someone for a brief period does not make you friends. The dude had all of like 5 friends and she was number 6. So my thing was what was the reason. More than likely to see what her status was and go from there. Whether she friended him or not made no matter to me. Maybe I don’t see why she friended him to begin with. I am not saying you can’t be cool with people you talked to but at the same time you don’t have to be cool with everyone you talk to.
Last Train To Paris…Get On Or Get Off
LMAO. Shut the hell up J.. so poorly portrayed LOOKIN.

My point was- my status says, “in a relationship..” there are pics of u and me everywhere.
who cares what his intention was- he FAILED. lol
@Nicki
Okay so what was the intention on adding him since he FAILED!! Shouldn’t that warrant a rejection?
“”
@J: I wasn’t thinking about his intention because it didn’t matter…. when u first come onto fb, they ask to check your email for friends… they prolly checked and found mine and I was one of the few the accepted/ was on there.
He’s pretty new.
You missed the question entirely but okay babe!! 🙂
“You missed the question entirely but okay babe!! ”
ohhhh, I friended him bc it’s FACEBOOK and I knew him.
It ain’t like I opened my leg and said, “u are my friend, come on it.” lol
My facebook doesn’t get really personal so I didnt’ see it as a big deal.
Yeah ok babe 🙂
J: u done ran everybody off (YEAH YOU.) lol.
Aww man come back everyone LOL!! Ya’ll can speak on it.
“”
Right. That is the whole point we put it on here- we wanted yaw to weigh in on it.
I’m here! Enjoying this!
i’m lost. i just ordered the cliff notes version off Amazon.com to catch up.
what’s the sticking point again?
@Rob: Shat I forgot.. J, help him out.
@Andrea; U are cracking me up.. This is my life with LTTP every once in a while.
The sticking point to me is to have an understanding about friends who are exes and if you expect your S.O. to act in a certain manner then you should act in that manner dealing with these friends or exes.
Thats my take on it!!
I don’t even remember how it started…
Okay, J aka LTTP doesn’t understand or is trying to understand why I added an ex on facebook.
And I didn’t see a big deal about adding him, but J suggests there is one.. is that right, my king? (*sticking out tongue*)
Yes I give her such he!ll all the time. How she makes it through the day I do not know. Pray for her that she continues to be strong during these trying and difficult times and can endure the struggle. LMAO!!
“”
Seriously???? that’s not what I was saying..
“”
Wrong!! LOL!!
@LTTP. I have this failing argument with my wife all the time (notice the failing part). I agree with you. you can’t expect me to do A when you’re going to do B. The only problem with this notion is that neither of us have the past relationship with the other persons’ ex in order to be comfortable with them maintaining a friendship with that person. couple wit the fact that the both of us have experienced situations in which the ex has tried to re-up. therefore, at some point we had to come to the REALization that it’s either one way or the other way, it’s either okay to be friends or we cut ties all together. cause i’m like you LTTP, you ain’t telling me that I can’t do nothing if I can’t tell you the same. I’m glad yall cleared this up I thought yall was about to go through one of these situations. . . .
“ ”
@Rob: Naw…. lol. I’d delete the guy before I let that happen.. I just don’t take facebook that seriously!!!!!
i’m cordial to all my exes except for one (whom i see around campus and she only gets the head nod). i was friends/acquanitinces with all my exes before we actually got together so i really don’t see the problem with us being friends. my first ex even asks me dating advice, to which i have no problem giving.
J’s ain’t telling the whole story.. he’s friends with exes.. I haven’t done anything he hasn’t done… I think his issue is how long of a history there was.. to me, I don’t care how long the history is, it’s the same thing.
but if he expressed an issue with it, I’d delete all of ’em.
Naw never go through what they do in this video…but it is hilarious. My thing is you tell me and I rendered my thoughts. I never said delete the guy. I said I wonder his intentions that’s all. It’s one of those thngs that will be forgotten about by days end.
And see I believe history does matter. Someone you were in a relationship with for 6yrs is not the same as someone you talked to for a month. If that’s the case then I am the same as a guy you dated for a few months. Because the history and time we spent dont matter.
“”
U are my man J… that is not the same. Different results. |

en | N/A | N/A | Influencer Marketing is promoting products or services through opinion leaders, or influencers. An influencer is not only a celebrity but also a blogger, an expert in his field, who runs social media. You don't need to have a million followers to become an influencer.
The effectiveness of influencer marketing does not depend on the number of subscribersю The engagement of the audience in the influencer's content — that's what matters. Now people trust small bloggers whose audience does not exceed 3000 subscribers, more than large ones. Why? There are no strangers and you can feel free.
By audience size, influencers are divided into several groups:
nano-influencers — 1,000 followers or less;
micro-influencers — 1,000 – 100,000 followers;
macro-influencers — 100,000 – 1 million followers;
mega-influencers — more than 1 million followersdirect advertising in a native way. Product promotion doesn't look like advertising. From the point of view of the subscriber, a blogger is just a friend who recommends what he likes: products, places, entertainment. Advertising becomes part of the content, and the audience perceives it loyally. The influencer knows his audience well — he knows what topics subscribers like, so his account is a ready-made channel for communication and promotion on social media.
Direct recommendation is a call to follow a link or take a desired action.
Review is a detailed description of your product, or several products along with yours to make it look more natural.
Product placement is a technique where the brand is mentioned natively in a frame. Bloggers took this technique from the cinema industry. Remember what brand of sneakers Marty McFly wore in the second part of the trilogy? That's right, it was Nike!
Unboxing is a format when an influencer receives a product from you to test it out in front of his audience.
Giveaway — contests on Instagram. You supply bloggers with your product or service and he promises to give this present to the followers who subscribe to his sponsors.
Lifebox Food and Punks and Chancers use giveaways on Instagram
Influencer promotion is a type of social media marketing, and proper marketing is impossible without a strategy. You can't just pick the most popular blogger and invite him to promote your brand. Even if an influencer has a million followers, the return will be minimal if his audience does not suit you. To start social media promotion through influencers, find the influencers in your niche, set the budget and goals of your campaign.
1. Find influencers and decide on the payment
It is easy to find a blogger with a suitable audience if you deal, for example, with beauty topics. For complex technical products, you will have to spend more time searching.
Three ways to find an influencer in your niche:
Use special services. Look for bloggers on the topic you need through paid platforms: Epicstars, GetBlogger, LabelUp, Adlab.io, Easyprbot, Efir.io, trendHERO. These tools provide topics, account statistics, and ad prices.
Blogger agencies. For example, Feedstars, Blogger Brand can help you select the influencer that suits youe.
Search yourself in thematic communities and specialized media or in the list of speakers at conferences. It is not the fastest option, but cheap.
The advantage of cooperation with influencers is the ability to work on a barter basis. Usually, micro-influencers with a small number of subscribers agree to such conditions.
Check influencers
Not all bloggers are really popular. In fact, their audience may not be real.
Social media promotion is also a "dark" method that creates the appearance of success and misleads advertisers: bot followers, fake likes, bought comments. The platforms try to struggle with cheating, but it's not always effective. That's why before collaborating with an influencer, you should check it yourself.
Boost subscribers, likes and comments
There are 10 thousand subscribers, but only 20 likes on the post. Looks suspicious, doesn't it? Perhaps most account followers are bots. A lot of inane comments — "awesome content", "nice", and just emoji are also signs of cheating. How to check if you are looking at the account that employs bots? Use Panda Rank, LiveDune, Hype Auditor, FakeLikeInfo and other services.
The normal engagement rate is 8-10%. When the indicator is lower, subscribers are not interested in the content. If the percentage is higher, it's time to suspect cheating. The exception is peak situational moments of popularity growth.
For example, before the participation of the Italian group Måneskin in Eurovision 2021, there were no more than 3 thousand comments on the posts in their account. During the competition, the number increased to 10 thousand. On the publication with the winning award, subscribers left a record 27 thousand comments.
2. Assess the risks of working with bloggers
Influencers are non-professional advertisers. Some of them do not even understand what social media marketing is. In most cases, the audience liked their content because it appeared at the right time. Not everyone is good at advertising. What could go wrong?
Just because an influencer's content is successful doesn't mean the ads for your brand will be the same. Before offering, find previous advertisers and ask them for feedback on working with the blogger, see other ads that were made by this blogger. Ask yourself if you are satisfied with its quality.
How to avoid mistakes? Set a clear task and agree on the approval of advertising before publication, provide additional materials and examples. But don't write a detailed script. Let the blogger do his things. His audience subscribed to his content. If he goes along with the script, like a puppet, the followers will notice it. They are unlikely to be happy.
3. Set your budget and stick to it
Some influencers can ask for a payment over your budget. In this case, offer barter plus payment or percentage of sales. But don't overestimate the influencer. Expensive is not always good. Remember, sometimes several micro-influencers are better than one macro-influencer.
One ad integration with a very famous blogger will have a short-term effect — people look and forget. With several bloggers, you can test different ad formats and create the effect of your brand's presence everywhere. That's how RICHE did this on Instagram.
RICHE advertising campaign on Instagram
The unspoken industry rule is $100 per 10,000 followers
Another way is to count based on actual engagement: likes, comments, shares. .
Of course, any division is conditional, and the real price may differ from the general rules.
4. Set promotion goals
Promotion is a process that should always start with goals. Why do you need Influencers? What kind of result do you expect from them?
Possible options for the goals of influencer marketing:
Brand awareness — more people will know about your product and not confuse it with another.
More sales — increasing in units sold during the campaign.
Increasing brand loyalty — the number of people who trust your brand speak positively about it.
Engaging your audience in your content. A blogger can advertise not a product, but your resources and useful guides and other materials, which will later lead to a purchase.
Increasing the number of subscribers in your social media accounts.
5. Track influencer campaigns
Assessing thgoal.
How to evaluate sales:
Give a unique promotional code to an influencer. This way, you will find out how many purchases his audience made.
Use UTM in the link to track not only the fact of the sale but also the movement along the conversion funnel: from clicking on the blogger's link to actions in the cart of the online store. Such an analytics tool as Google Analytics will help you.
Ask the influences for statistics, but you need to be sure of his honesty.
How to track results on other goals:
Brand awareness can be measured by the number of searches in search engines for your brand, such as Google Trends. Compare results before, during and after the campaign.
If it comes to track brand loyalty, you should measure the number and tone of comments on your publications and the blogger's post, or compare the ratio of likes and dislikes on YouTube.
Audience engagement and retention is counted by the change in the number of likes, reposts and content shares during the campaign. For videos on Youtube, you can check how many people keep watching the video at the moment of advertising. If there is no fall, the audience accepts the advertisement positively.
If you want to know how the number of subscribers is changing in your accounts, calculate the dynamics before and after the campaign and estimate how much you spent to get a customer.
Influencer Marketing is an effective tool for brand promotion, but it is not a magic pill. The blogger does not give a guarantee of the result and may get out of your control, for example, to advertise not in the way you expect or even damage the company's reputation. Therefore, preparation is important — build a strategy, study the statistics and reputation of the influencer. Remember, you are going to make that person the face of your brand for the duration of the campaign.

en | N/A | N/A | Many people don’t know that they can hire a cleaning service on about any budget. There are a number of resources out there to shop your options. From more traditional resources such as the Yellow Pages or your local business bureau to newer sources like Homeadvisor, Angie’s List, and Thumbtack, you can easily compare and contrast businesses in your local area to find the right fit for your budget.
Here at Clean Arrival LLC,our service. We provide instant quotes online. Simply use our booking page or the sliders on our homepage to view our flat rate pricing without submitting any personal information.
There are two main payment structures that most services run by, flat rates and hourly fees. Most individual cleaners still adhere to the traditional hourly fee, while many companies have started to transition to the flat rate structure.
There are pros and cons to both structures depending on the quality of the company or individuals. The main worry most people have with hourly fees is that the cleaner will prolong the cleaning time to earn more. We suggest discussing to avoid being taken advantage of.
At Clean Arrival, we use a flat rate structure for our cleans. We understand that the state of a home ebbs and flows. One month may not be as dirty as the next. With a flat rate structure, there are no surprise costs or fees. You know exactly what you’re paying for each month even though the level of attention your home needs may fluctuate.
How often do you need assistance?
The type of cleaning services available for you may be dependent on the type of assistance you are looking for. If you need someone in your home every day you probably want to look for an individual who can give your home the constant attention it needs. On the flip side, if you’re looking for occasional help, a full-service company will most likely be able to service your homelly trained employees.
Consider before hiring how often you currently spend cleaning and maintaining your house. Then consider how much time you would actually like to spend. Many factors go into a cleaner being able to properly maintain a home. Dirt and grime build up fast. A cleaners ability to service your home depends on the original state they find it, lifestyle habits, the number of people living in the space, and even the age of the home. All these factors can affect how fast and how dirty your home many get on a regular basis. Consider these factors when determining your cleaning schedule.
We here at Clean Arrival provide one-time services in addition to recurring services on weekly, biweekly, and monthly schedule.
What types of product do you want to be used in your home?
e designed to clean your home. Consider whether you prefer eco-friendly, certified green, or traditional cleaning products. Some companies use one specific brand or type of products while others mix it up.
Many companies will only use the products they supply. This is because their cleaners are trained on how to properly use those specific products and aim to avoid damaging your property by using a product they are unfamiliar with.
You may also have special surfaces in your home that require specific products and can be easily damaged. Make sure you inform your cleaning service as to the type of surface and what can be used on it.
You may feel more comfortable having your own equipment used in your home, or you may want to leave it to the professionals to choose the right equipment for the job.
Just like with product, cleaning companies will often use their own equipment. Once again this is to avoid the liability of damaging your equipment or property from improper use.
Do you want an individual or a company?
The world of cleaning services has definitely expanded and changed over time. Gone are the days of only being able to hire a one-off individual or massive chain company. Nowadays you have a number of options for your clean.
Today there is any number of cleaning companies, big and small, that you can select from. Not all cleaners are the same. One of the many benefits of a cleaning company is the fact that they usually have multiple cleaners. While many people like to have one consistent cleaner going with a company means you get to try out multiple cleaners without having change services.
Think about what areas of your home are most important to you. Do you need help picking up around the house and completing daily chores, or are you looking for someone to get down and dirty getting into all nooks and crannies?
Do your research to understand what each cleaning service provides. Some companies may have a standardized checklist while others may flex with your needs.
Does the cleaning service you’re considering have experience or references?
Do your research! Not all house cleaners are the same. Ask friends and neighbors first. With housecleaning becoming more and more of an affordable service it is likely that you know someone who has had a professional cleaner. By asking people friends and family not only may you find a great recommendation but they may be able to give you their own tips to make the process of hiring a cleaner as smooth as possible.
Insurance and employment laws are another big area to consider before hiring a maid or cleaning service. To protect yourself from any issues always verify with the company or individual as well as with the Internal Revenue Service.
Companies who employ their own cleaners are typically responsible for withholding for all their employees.
On the other hand, when hiring an independent house cleaner you may be considered a direct employer and be responsible for taxes and social security. If this is the case you may need to discover if they are legally able to work here in the U.S.
Please note we are not tax law experts. For detailed information on insurance and tax laws please contact appropriate entities.
What to consider before hiring a cleaning service. Follow the Clean Arrival blog to learn what we think are the top ten things to consider. |

An Afghanistan Surge
The New York Times reports that the American military has concluded that the Afghan campaign requires more troops, and the article quotefrom yesterday’s Meet the Press:
Mullen said on NBC‘s “Meet the Press.” “And so certainly the numbers are of concern. That said, t, and that focuses on a new strategy, new leadership, and we’re moving very much in that direction.”
The best course forward for President Obama is the same course followed by President Bush: Take the advice of the Pentagon leadership and if the advice is unpopular with voters, do your best to explain the policy and encourage support. If you lose confidence in the Pentagon’s leadership, change the leadership, don’t just ignore the advice.
There is no reason for President Obama to have lost confidence in or General McChrystal. Just the opposite in fact. So the president should follow their advice. A war against jihadists cannot be run based on poll numbers, which should mean that the new president will direct that the troops that are deemed necessary by the Pentagon leadership will be deployed.

Whether it was the "Pantspocalypse," the bloggers at Feminist Mormon Housewives/ Exponent ,or faithful Mormon feminist Judy Dushku's pointed critique of Mitt Romney, Mormon Feminists have been very prominent as of late. Call it a revival, call it a resurgence, call it what you will, but the advent of the internet and the increasing dialogue about the roles of women in American and world society has brought Mormon feminists out of their hiding places and rhetorical bomb shelters. Mormon Feminists have searched for each other and banded together. They have clamored for an equal voice in a society that has often tried to silence them and they have implored to their fellow Latter-day Saints to see them as fellow-pilgrims and not as antagonists of the faith. At the forefront of this effort has been the courageous Joanna Brooks, a professor o; a prominent blogger at Ask Mormon Girl and Religion Dispatches; a high profile resource about Mormonism for CNN, Jon Stewart's Daily Show, and NBC Rock Center; as well aAmerican Faith.
Having loved Brooks'we'This occasional alienation we have felt may have been a cultural quality that we thought had been overemphasized, a Pharisee-like pattern we find in certain elements and sub-groups of the membership, or a coldness we have received (or we have seen others receive) because of this or that circumstance. These, of course, are exceptions rather than the rule. I personally have found that Mormonism makes people better, if it is lived in the way it has been outlined by the scriptures and the tenets of the faith. And, of course, it is so much better to concern oneself with the beam in one's own eye, than the mote that is in our neighbor's eye.
