Parisian coachbuilders Joseph Figoni and Ovidio Falaschi produced this very special Delahaye 135MS Roadster for the 1937 Paris Auto Salon.
This low, sleek car appears to be moving when it is standing still. The avant-garde design caused a sensation at the Paris Auto Salon, and its completion provided Figoni & Falaschi with the opportunity to file four new patents: for the aerodynamic design that stabilized the front fenders; for the disappearing front windshield; for the special lightweight competition tubular seats; and for the disappearing convertible top.
Enessere Hercules wind generator emulates these sinuous lines with its red cedar wood blades, carbon fibre and titanium that make the rotor unique in the world just like the Delahaye 135MS Roadster.
Heads will turn when they catch a glimpse of the generator spinning or people will remain breathless just like the first time they laid eyes on a Delahaye, which looked like it was in motion whilst stationary, the Enessere Hercules is awe inspiring. | <urn:uuid:d083ed01-6a1a-4145-bc32-e164ed0906f9> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://www.enessere.com/en/designed-to-astonish-2/ | 2023-10-04T19:03:38Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233511406.34/warc/CC-MAIN-20231004184208-20231004214208-00698.warc.gz | en | 0.904453 | 215 |

It's hard to argue with Google's track record. The company has scored a hit in nearly every space in which it's dabbled: search, email, ads, office software, etc. There's always been one glaring exception to this rule, however: social networking. The company hasn't made much of a dent in a world dominated by Facebook (and, once upon a time, MySpace and Friendster). For Google+, however, the company dove in with both feet, launching a multi-faceted service that brings a lot to the table with features like Circles, Hang Out, and Huddle. Is it enough to end Google's streak of misteps in the social world? Join us as we take a dive deeper into Google's latest attempt to find out.%Gallery-127373% %Gallery-127362%
Those who have spent any time at all on Facebook will find it nearly impossible not to draw comparisons upon logging in. Let there be no question: Google is going after the world's largest social network -- and it's doing so in a big way. The page is constructed around a familiar content stream populated with content from your friends' updates and posts -- things like links, photos, and location updates. The "Circles" feature comes into play in the stream, offering users the option of sending posted content to specified groups or making it public for all the world to see.
Perhaps to emphasize the importance of content, the stream shows shared items in a much larger format than on Facebook, particularly when media is added. We think this is nice for now, but as friends lists grow, we're sure to expect a lot more scrolling. Updates refresh on the page automatically, and are instantaneously able to be commented on and shared with other lists. The familiar Facebook "Like" button has, not surprisingly, been replaced by Google's soon-to-be-ubiquitous Plus One button. Pretty much every time something happens on the service, Google will pop up a red notification on the top tool bar and send you an email, just in case you weren't paying attention.
There's a list of other content streams located along the left side of the window: toggle between streams from different groups or access a chat client eerily similar to the one present in Gmail. This pane also includes an abbreviated friends list and a Twitter-like suggestion list, but also contains an ad for the site's mobile version. The top bar, meanwhile, boasts the obligatory search field and shortcuts to the homepage, photos, your profile, notifications, settings, and your other Circles.
Google is really looking to set itself apart from the pack with its "Circles" feature (that it has denied in the past). You see, Google lets you create groups, or, "Circles," to which you can add and remove contacts. This means that you can separate your work buddies from your drinking buddies -- or, "epic bros" as Google suggests categorizing them. Google's also tapping into its many algorithms to suggest contacts to be added to Circles, much like it does with emails in Gmail -- though you can still add contacts directly by email address should you so desire. The process of creating new Circles and physically dragging contacts into them is quite dynamic -- we're definitely impressed with the interface.
"Sparks" is a pretty vanilla take on RSS feeds -- you do remember those things, right? Lists are curated by searching and adding topics in a pretty straightforward manner. Stories that appear in your feeds have a "share" button, making it easy you post them to your stream. We have a sneaking suspicion that Google's trying to make its robust sharing options the star of the show here -- you can share almost anything from anywhere in the entire service.
Plus' "Hangout" feature has its sights firmly set on Skype's multi-user video chat. Once the plug-in is installed, clicking the button will deliver a note to your followers' stream letting them know that you're "hanging out." Clicking the button triggers a Skype-like window with the faces of those you're chatting with. Whoever has the floor appears in the main window -- and like the aforementioned service, it allows for text chat along the side. Unsurprisingly, the feature also offers YouTube integration, letting users collaboratively watch videos and create running commentaries in the chat -- or verbally using that new Google Voice Search tech.
We should mention that we are talking about Google here, so there's also an obvious push for the mobile version of Google+ as well. No one should be particulary surprised that Android is the first mobile OS to be getting a crack at the service -- there's already an available in the Market. We've been told that there's an iPhone version of the app also on the way (though for the time being, iPhone users can access the page through mobile Safari). The "Huddle" group-messaging feature -- one of the biggest selling points of the mobile version -- doesn't seem quite ready for prime time, either.
When news of Google Plus' arrival broke today, we called the service an "all out assault on social networking." After playing around with it for a bit, we believe that our previous description seems even more apt. Past services like Buzz have suffered from a half-baked approach to the space, but Google has clearly pulled out all of the stops this time. With direct shots at some of the leading market software in the form Facebook and Skype, Google is in a position to extend its search dominance to other realms. As usual, the company has created a smooth, intuitive, and enjoyable experience. However, now comes the hardest part: convincing people that they need another social network in their lives, because without friends, you're just hanging out by yourself. | <urn:uuid:3af43d76-d598-45a0-a4e8-2017c666f87f> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://www.engadget.com/2011-06-28-google-invite-received-we-go-hands-on.html | 2023-10-04T21:17:35Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233511406.34/warc/CC-MAIN-20231004184208-20231004214208-00698.warc.gz | en | 0.953966 | 1,191 |

Checkers/Rally's Hi-Performance Super Human Crew Contest
Checkers/Rally’s joined forces with a report-card-carrying super-sleuth who possessed the authority to issue Speeding Tickets. These Speeding Tickets transformed to prizes, which were sourced by GDM, and prizes were to produce employee retention and rising sales. GeigerDonnelly Marketing developed and executed the Checkers/Rally’s Hi-Performance Super Human Crew Contest. Their spokesperson was named Holly, a fictitious cartoon-style character, who appealed to younger employees, aged 16-29. The program involved weekly mystery shopper visits to stores in order to identify which stores needed help in improving certain core disciplines including food quality, sanitation, and suggestive selling. Stores attempted to score a perfect 100 overall when mystery shoppers visited. GDM would tally scores and send stores instructional tips to increase scores on subject areas measured. Based on the restaurant’s score, Speeding Tickets were issued via mail. Each ticket was one sweepstakes mail-in entry for the Grand Prize Drawing. Grand Prizes included a 7-day Eastern caribbean cruise for the General Manager, 3-day Bahamarama cruise for the Assistant/Shift Manager, and inline skates for the crew. Checkers/Rally’s Top 15 restaurants in two regions were awarded prizes based on the greatest overall mystery shopper report card. Checkers/Rally’s overall Top 10 restaurants were awarded prizes each month of the promotion based on a weighted average score. Prizes awarded included: FUBU watches, Hewlett-Packard computers, Ferrari T-shirts, baseball caps, Sony AM/FM CD boomboxes, choice of a music CD, CD cases, sunglasses, Sharp 4-head VCRs, FUBU baseball caps, NASCAR analog watches, FUBU T-shirts, Ferrari polo shirts, GPX boomboxes, Tommy Hilfiger backpacks, and GPX AM/FM cassette personal stereos. Support materials included training guides for store managers, backroom posters for crewmember communication, tip sheets, and newsletters for contest period winner announcements. | <urn:uuid:73317e83-622c-4109-84de-c6932859cbf0> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://www.enterpriseengagement.org/resourcelibrary/content/8290104/checkersrallys-hiperformance-super-human-crew-contest/ | 2023-10-04T19:35:18Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233511406.34/warc/CC-MAIN-20231004184208-20231004214208-00698.warc.gz | en | 0.940826 | 451 |
Carole M. Billiet, Dansen op één voet? Publiekrechtelijke sanctionering van biodiversiteitsmisdrijven en het maatschappelijk middenveld: een systeemanalyse [Dancing on one foot? Public law sanctioning of biodiversity crimes and civil society: a systemic analysis], in Carole M. Billiet (ed.), Biodiversiteitsmisdrijven in eigen land: in Vlaamse savannes en Waalse regenwouden – La criminalité en matière de biodiversité chez nous: des savanes flamandes et forêts pluviales wallonnes, Brugge, die Keure, 2018, 439-473
Biodiversity protection is one of the key areas of involvement of environmental NGO’s (ENGO’s). This paper researches the position of ENGO’s in the public law enforcement systems introduced in the Flemish and Walloon Regions in 2009 to sanction environmental crimes, including biodiversity crimes. These systems are characterized by a well-organized coexistence of a criminal sanctioning track with an administrative sanctioning track and by the availability of punitive as well as remedial sanctioning tools in both tracks.
The position of ENGO’s in the criminal sanctioning track has been improving dramatically recently. A 2013 judgment of the Belgian Supreme Court put an end to standing difficulties as a civil party to the trial. A 2016 judgment of the Constitutional Court established the possibility to award them, next to material damages, moral damages exceeding 1 symbolic EUR. Additionally, victim position in the pre-trial and trial stage of criminal proceeding, improved discretely in many aspects between 1998 and 2012, benefitting NGO’s too. The impact of these radical improvements, however, is limited because of the low prosecution rate of biodiversity crimes: 2,5 à 3,5% of all cases reaching the prosecutors’ offices (even less than environmental crimes in general: 4 to 5%).
In the administrative sanctioning track we observe a sharp rise of fining decisions: since 2009, administrative fining has increased the punishment of detected biodiversity crimes by more than 20%, a manifold of the fraction punished by the criminal courts. ENGO’s, however, get no recognition in administrative fining procedures. There is no niche to incorporate their material and moral damages in the sanctioning decision. They cannot influence the offender’s decision to offend (or respect) the law.
The paper concludes with reflections and questions aiming at policy development.

On February 7th of last year, I wrote a post titled 'So, I Watched The Pro Bowl Last Night..' in which I was critical of the annual gathering of the best NFL players from the 2021 Season.
The game was a waste of time. Not just for the players, but for every single person involved with it. That included the viewers.
Tomorrow night sees the best players from the AFC and NFC conferences return for another Pro Bowl. This time, however, the event has been renamed The Pro Bowl Games and will consist of skill contests as well as 7-on-7 flag football games.
In a way, it does seem just as much of a waste of time as the regular Pro Bowl. However, I think it isn't as misleading in its advertising as previous Pro Bowls.
Player safety is a priority, so this new approach seems fitting.
The teams will also be coached by Eli and Peyton Manning. That's enough of a draw for me. | <urn:uuid:31f5801c-5db1-470e-8f81-3302b6501563> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://www.equinoxx.info/2023/02/pro-bowl-games-2022-season.html | 2023-10-04T20:45:58Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233511406.34/warc/CC-MAIN-20231004184208-20231004214208-00698.warc.gz | en | 0.993291 | 201 |

President Donald Trump is standing by his accusation that former President Barack Obama wiretapped his phones at Trump Tower, despite a number of high ranking congressmembers refuting his claims.
“There is no question that there were surveillance techniques used throughout this,” White House spokesman Sean Spicer said during a press briefing on Thursday.
In a series of tweets earlier this month, the president claimed that Obama had wiretapped his phones during the election.

Spicer’s statements comes as key leaders of both the Senate and the House have publicly said that there is no evidence of any type of wiretapping.
The Republican and Democratic leaders of the Senate Intelligence Committee said in a statement Thursday they saw “no indications” of surveillance. Just a day earlier, House of Representatives Intelligence Committee Chairman Devin Nunes told a news conference there was no evidence.
“I don’t think there was an actual tap of Trump Tower,” he said. Nunes is a key Republican lawmaker that was part of Trump’s transition team.
And now even Speaker Paul Ryan, the top republican lawmaker of the House, has had to comment on the issue.
“The point is, the intelligence committees in their continuing, widening, ongoing investigation of all things Russia, got to the bottom – at least so far – with respect to our intelligence community that – that no such wiretap existed,” he said.
Obama denied the claims soon after Trump made them. But it appears the president is buckling down with this story.

Police and Crime Commissioners act on call handling concerns
Nick Alston, Essex Police and Crime Commissioner and Chair of the Association of Police and Crime Commissioners, said: “It is clearly unacceptable that, nationally, over a million calls to the police non-emergency 101 phone service were cut off or abandoned before contact was made during the last 12 months, an increase of over 25 per cent. A failure of the 101 service is also likely to create extra pressure on the crucial emergency 999 number.
“Victims of crime have a right to expect a good quality service from police forces, and the non-emergency 101 service should help to provide a means by which victims can seek support and learn about the progress of the police investigation. It is essential that people continue to use 101 to report suspicious behaviour, as this can often lead to a crime being prevented or a criminal being arrested. Of course, if a member of the public believes they are witnessing a crime in progress, they should call the emergency 999 number. There is considerable demand upon both the 999 and 101 numbers. It’s important that they are used correctly, and that the public continue to have confidence in using the services.
“I know that across the country, at the regular public meetings held by PCCs, people have raised concerns about the 101 service. PCCs need to continue to hold Chief Constables to account to ensure that the quality of contact between the public and police is improved, and I am aware that PCCs are already involved in work to tackle the issue locally.
“The precise nature of any problems with the 101 non-emergency service will often be different from one force to the next, and PCCs are bringing a clear local focus to addressing the core issues.
“Acting on concerns raised by local people, Tony Hogg, PCC for Devon and Cornwall, launched an inquiry which identified significant concerns about the ‘caller’s journey’ from initial contact through to getting a resolution to their call. He called the 101 service ‘unacceptable’, published the results of his inquiry and came up with a clear action plan which can be read on his website.
“This is open, transparent and constructive scrutiny of our police forces by a Police and Crime Commissioner with the aim of ensuring that the public gets a better service.
“Tony Hogg’s review found that ‘call handlers are conscientious and caring and deal with callers in a professional manner’, and this reflects my own experience of call handling staff. Our professional police staff are very much part of the solution, but they are often being let down by outdated technology.
“There is a clear need to develop better processes for ensuring that members of the public who have been victims of crime can make contact with the officer investigating their case, and also to ensure that intelligence provided by the public via 101 can be quickly analysed and shared with appropriate officers.
“Given financial constraints and the pressure on police resources, there are unlikely to be quick fixes here. However, PCCs are bringing meaningful scrutiny to key elements of the service provided to the public by police forces and crucially looking to implement locally relevant solutions.”

We’re launching a different type of coaching package this year. Our former program model has failed both Ethos and our clients. How? The old package deal included essentially “endless hours” during the competition season. Although that seems like a debater’s utopia, we found that students didn’t always make the best use of session hours due to the bottomless supply of them. We also found that our coaches were burnt out. Ethos seeks to be the highest quality private-coaching program on the market. That’s why Ethos XL 3.0 will measure coaching sessions by hours instead of the competition season. What does this mean? Rather than paying a flat rate for endless hours, you’ll pay a discounted flat rate for a set amount of hours. And don’t worry – we weren’t stingy with the number of hours in the packages. All packages our 15% off our normal rate of $45 or $30 an hour. Why are the prices different?
All Coaches vs. Levels of Coaches
Many of you emailed us last year asking which coach would be right for you in Ethos XL. Choosing the right coach can be hard. This year, it’s easier than ever. Instead of having to read each coach’s individual bio and match their talents/price with your needs/wallet, Ethos XL 3.0 will offer levels of coaching packages. We will have silver and gold coaches. Our Gold coaches have more experience. They’re the people who’ve been in the game for 3-6 years. Our silver coaches all have 1-2 years of experience coaching, but both levels teach from the same Ethos curriculum and have trained hundreds of students through camps and private coaching to outstanding success. The difference is in pricing. Our gold coaches charge $45 an hour, while our silver coaches charge $30. The coaching programs will also be separated into color-coded levels, annotating how many hours you’re buying and what level of coach you’ve selected!
Coaching a Club vs. Individual Coaching
We’ve always offered club coaching via Ethos XL, but we’ve served more individual clients. This year, we’re emphasizing the cost-effectiveness of club coaching. When you buy our revamped packages, you’re buying those hours for a team or for a club, after all, you’re buying our time. Use it how you want! If you want club coaching, now is your chance to get it at 15% off in bulk. Don’t miss out on national-class professional coaching for your club at our cheapest rate ever.
Ethos XL 3.0 is up now. Are you going to stock up on coaching sessions at our lowest rate of the year, or wait and pay full price? We can’t wait to revolutionize your debate career with revolutionary coaching.

Nutrition research: who funds it and how is it published?Last Updated : 06 September 2023
Nutrition has a fundamental and vital role in contributing to public health. Have you ever wondered how the work of scientists is checked and paid for? Why is some nutrition research behind a paywall? This article describes the ways in which nutrition research can be funded, and explains some aspects related to academic publishing, including the peer-review process and Open Access publishing.
What is peer-review and why is it important?
Before scientists publish their research findings and make them public via academic journals, they usually pass it through a process called peer-review. Peer-review is a form of scientific quality control where scientists open their research to scrutiny by other experts in the field.
Peer review is both a way to make sure that only high-quality, well-conducted studies are made publicly available, and a process by which researchers can improve the quality of their scientific papers by getting feedback from their academic peers. It can also help to identify possible errors or limitations that may have been overlooked while the research was carried out or during the writing of the article.
The peer-review process works like this:
- Researchers prepare a manuscript describing a study they have carried out including an introduction to the topic, a description of the methodology they used, the results and their interpretation of them. They submit this article to a scientific journal that is relevant to their field.
- An editor, which is usually a well-known reputed scientist in the field, at the publisher carries out a first assessment of the article to ensure the topic fits within the scope of the journal and that the quality is high enough for the next steps. If it is not, the article is rejected and the process ends.
- If the editor makes a positive assessment, they send the article out to a number of scientific experts who are usually working in the same field as the author of the article. These are the ‘peer-reviewers’ who assess the quality of the methods, results and conclusions presented in the article, and give their recommendation on whether the findings are new and relevant enough to warrant publication. At this stage, they identify possible errors or limitations that may have been overlooked while the research was carried out or during the writing of the article.
- The editor considers the reviewers recommendation and decides whether to reject the paper for publication at this stage or whether to proceed. If the reviewers recommend that additional work is needed to improve the article, the original author is given a chance to make changes and respond to the reviewers’ comments.
- The editor receives the updated article and makes the final decision whether the article should be published.
Experts commonly remain anonymous to all but the editor during the review process. However, there are ‘open’ peer-review processes where the reviewer’s identity is known, or more rarely where peer-review is carried out after publication of the original submitted article (for example on the European Commission’s Open Research Europe platform).
Peer-reviewers are not paid for their work reviewing articles, but many consider it as part of the job of being an academic researcher. While some consider the time spent to be burdensome, surveys have found that most scientists consider their peer-review work to have several personal benefits including helping them keep up with the latest research and stimulating new research ideas, the possibility to see new studies first, allowing them to build good relationships with prestigious journals and contribute to the research community.1
However, peer-review is not fool-proof. Criticisms include that the process is not optimized for detecting errors,2 plagiarism or research misconduct, and that it takes too long (up to several months from submission to publication) and can therefore stifle innovation. On the whole though, peer-review is considered an essential tool in ensuring the quality of published research, and a rigorous peer-review process is a mark of a credible academic publisher. In recent years, there has been an explosion in the number of online journals that do not carry out thorough peer-review before publishing studies, which can make it difficult for those outside the reviewing process to identify good quality research studies. These journals are sometimes called ‘predatory.’ In addition to not providing a trustworthy peer-review process they may, for example, charge publication fees, actively solicit research manuscripts or do not provide quality editorial services. As such, they take advantage of researchers who want their work to be published, while undermining the integrity of their research and its potential impact. This can complicate the task of distinguishing reliable research from unreliable sources.
Who funds nutrition research?
Nutrition plays a fundamental role in contributing to public health and well-being. It is therefore important that researchers have the means to investigate the links between diet, health and disease risk and expand our knowledge in this area. However, conducting high-quality and rigorous research is expensive, so where does the funding come from?
Nutrition research can be funded through public sources like grants provided by national research funding agencies or international organisations such as the European Commission. In order to get funding to carry out a study, researchers write a grant proposal in response to a call for proposals issued by the funding agency matching its remit. The funding agency evaluates the grant proposal and if successful, the researchers receive the money they need to carry out the specific research project that was outlined in the proposal. This process can be very competitive and can involve tens or even hundreds of proposals competing for the same funding opportunity.
The amount of public funds available for nutrition research depends upon the priorities of governments and funding agencies, and also competes with other areas of research (e.g., medical research, agricultural research, etc.). Some experts believe that nutrition research does not receive enough funding from public sources.3,4
Foundations and private companies also fund nutrition research. In 2018, one paper estimated that 13.5% of scientific articles published in the top 10 nutrition related academic journals had involved affiliation with or funding from the food industry.5 The funding of nutrition research by the food industry is often viewed with concern and criticized as a way for companies to promote their own interests. However, stopping the private funding of nutrition research would reduce the financial support needed to investigate key areas where more knowledge is needed. So how can we reduce the risk of bias in research that receives funding from private sources? Some safeguards that are commonly put in place include:6
- Pre-registration of studies: this involves defining what hypothesis you will be testing, describing a research plan in advance and submitting it to a public registry. This ensures that the scope of a study is not altered part way through in case of unfavorable results.
- Full disclosure of all funding and potential conflicts of interest: all people involved in the study must publicly declare any private interests (such as financial interests, affiliations, personal relationships) that could potentially affect professional judgement and bias research.
- Control of research: a contract should be signed that makes clear that the study design and the execution of the research (e.g., the analysis of data and writing up the results) should be in the control of the researchers and not the funding party.
- Freedom of researchers to publish: when researchers receive funding from industry, they must be assured the freedom to publish their results. This ensures that companies cannot withhold or refrain from publishing data that may negatively impact their business.
Another way to fund nutrition research is through public-private partnerships (PPPs), long-term collaboration agreements between two or more public and private sector organisations. An advantage of PPPs is that governance or steering bodies can be established to ensure separation of the funding and decision-making parties and reduce the risk of bias in research activities. An example is Top Institute Food & Nutrition from the Netherlands, a public-private partnership for food and nutrition research.
What is open-access publishing and why is it important?
In traditional publishing models, peer-reviewed academic journals charge a fee for readers to access their articles. This can be a one-off payment to access a single article or issue, or a subscription fee that allows access to all their published articles. These fees tend to be high and are usually paid by universities or research institutions to allow their staff and students to access published research. The fees cover the journals expenses related to editing, peer-review, hosting and archiving.
Some journals are moving to other publishing models such as Open Access. In open access publishing, academic papers are freely available online to anyone.7 In this case, the costs related to publishing an article are usually paid by the researcher who has submitted the article. Publishing open access can lead to a wider audience and greater impact of articles since they are more likely to be read and cited. Making research findings freely available also promotes innovation and potentially allows more people to make use of existing results. More and more, when research is funded by public money, there is an obligation to publish results using open access.

By Robert Reich
I recently suggested we welcome Donald Trump’s “final battle” against being held criminally liable for attempting a coup against the United States, because it will clarify the choice between democracy and authoritarianism.
Today I want to talk about a different issue. It is separate from, but often confused with, Trump’s possible criminal liability. Regardless of the outcome of that prosecution, the U.S. Constitution bars Trump from running for president again.
Someone who has tried to overthrow the U.S. government cannot be president.
The Constitution sets out four criteria that must be met in order for someone to be president. As directed by the Constitution, a presidential candidate: (1) must be a natural-born citizen of the United States, (2) must be a resident for 14 years, (3) must be 35 years of age or older, and (4) must not, after having sworn an oath to support the Constitution, have engaged in insurrection against the United States.
Trump meets the first three criteria. He does not meet the fourth.
Why? Because Section 3 of the 14th Amendment of the Constitution clearly states:
No person shall … hold any office, civil or military, under the United States … who, having previously taken an oath … to support the Constitution of the United States, shall have engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the same, or given aid or comfort to the enemies thereof.
This requirement was put in place after the Civil War to ensure that people elected to public office could be trusted to uphold the Constitution.
It has already been applied by the courts to remove from public office “Cowboys for Trump” co-founder and former Otero County Commissioner Couy Griffin in New Mexico. Griffin was found guilty of a misdemeanor for entering the Capitol grounds during the January 6 insurrection, though he did not go inside the building. The subsequent ruling removing him from office as a result was upheld by the New Mexico Supreme Court.
If the 14th Amendment applies to a county commissioner who participated in January 6, it should apply to Donald Trump — the person who, when all his other attempts to stay in power after losing the election failed, directed an armed mob to march on the Capitol in an attempt to stop the certification of electors.
At his inauguration in January 2017, Trump took an oath to protect and defend the U.S. Constitution. Four years later, he violated that oath with his efforts to remain in office after losing reelection. The violent insurrection was the culmination of a months-long project to try to overturn the results of a free and fair election.
As we all recall, after Trump failed in over 60 court cases, he tried to intimidate state officials into reversing the election by “finding” votes that did not exist. He recruited “alternative” slates of electors to cast unauthorized votes for him in the Electoral College.
And then, when none of his other schemes succeeded, he invited extremists to the Capitol on January 6 to try to prevent the formal counting of electoral votes. Having been informed that members of the crowd carried deadly weapons, he sent them to the Capitol building, which they invaded, threatening to find and assassinate Vice President Mike Pence and other lawmakers.
This is all a matter of public record — as is the fact that Trump thereafter did nothing but watch the physical violence he had unleashed unfold on television. According to sworn testimony by his closest aides, Trump refused to call in the National Guard or any other support for the Capitol police, who were literally fighting for their lives to protect the lives of those within the building.
While members of his inner circle were begging Trump to call off the mob, he incited further violence by tweeting criticism of his own vice president, literally stoking the cries of “Hang Mike Pence!”
Trump’s incitement of violence followed by his failure to act to stop it led to the deaths of multiple people and significant injuries to hundreds.
It was an insurrection. It was violent. It was a clear violation of Trump’s oath of office. It happened in plain sight.
There is no need to await the outcome of Trump’s pending criminal prosecution in connection with January 6 to bar him from running for president. He is disqualified from serving as an elected official in the United States ever again.
Secretaries of state and other state election officials should not allow Trump on the ballot in their states. If you agree, please consider signing the petition to tell election officials to keep Trump off the ballot now. (Just click on this link.)

Litvinenko died in 2006 after being poisoned with Polonium-210, a highly radioactive substance.
Russia was responsible for the murder of ex-spy Alexander Litvinenko, the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR) ruled on Tuesday.
The court said there was a "strong presumption" that Litvinenko had been assassinated by individuals "acting as agents of the Russian state".
It also added the Russian government "failed to provide any other satisfactory and convincing explanation of the events", nor did it carry out "an effective domestic investigation" aimed at identifying and punishing those responsible.
Litvinenko had worked for Soviet and Russian security services before defecting to the UK, where he was granted asylum in 2001.
In November 2006, he died in London after being poisoned with Polonium-210, a highly radioactive substance.
A previous inquiry carried out by British authorities in 2016 found the murder had been carried out by Russian nationals Andrey Lugovoy and Dmitriy Kovtun. Moscow has always refused to extradite them.
On Tuesday, Russia said it would not recognise the "unfounded" ruling of the Strasbourg court.
"So far, the investigation has yielded no results, so making such allegations is at least unfounded," Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov told reporters.
"It is unlikely that the ECHR has the powers or the technical capacity" to shed light on the case, Peskov added. | <urn:uuid:4f1fb92e-3784-46c8-ac22-b1b7b9fde649> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://www.euronews.com/2021/09/21/russia-was-responsible-for-murder-of-ex-spy-alexander-litvinenko-rules-echr | 2023-10-04T19:27:55Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233511406.34/warc/CC-MAIN-20231004184208-20231004214208-00698.warc.gz | en | 0.978316 | 295 |

Early in the crisis demands on leaders became sky-high. In a crisis, everybody is looking to the top. Leaders had to manage the paradox of radiating the confidence that they were on top of things without pretending to know it all. The more anxiety there was in the organization, the more tranquillity was required from the CEO.
Leaders love crises. Especially in the confusion of Spring 2020, CEOs mattered more than in times of business as usual. They liked it because it triggered a deeply felt human need to be relevant.
Employees escalated their dilemmas up the hierarchy more often. At the same time, leaders were more on the ball, which could have tempted them to solve those dilemmas. Most of them were wise enough to refrain from doing that. They gave their staff the freedom to make their own decisions, if only because they couldn’t look over their shoulder anymore. Feelings of ownership amongst employees seem to have increased.

How balloon sinuplasty can help with sinusitis
If you have chronic sinus problems, you’re probably tired of the headaches, pressure, and pain. You’ve tried over-the-counter medications and saline rinses for your sinuses, only to find your sinus problems returned almost immediately. It’s time to consider balloon sinuplasty, a modern, minimally invasive way to clear your sinuses. Dr. Christine Gilliam of Everyone’s ENT & Sinus in San Antonio, Texas wants to introduce you to balloon sinuplasty and help you breathe again.
Every year, 37 million Americans suffer from sinusitis or inflammation of the sinuses. Balloon sinuplasty is a great option for people who don’t get relief from conventional treatments.
Dr. Gilliam wants you to know that balloon sinuplasty is performed under general anesthesia in an outpatient setting. While you are under general anesthesia, Dr. Gilliam will insert a wire catheter through your nostril with a tiny balloon attached. Once your blocked sinus passage is reached, she will inflate the balloon, which gently opens and widens your sinus passage. She then deflates the balloon and withdraws the catheter. The result is an open sinus passage which allows for normal sinus function and drainage.
Balloon sinuplasty is easier than conventional sinus surgery because there is no need for any incisions, cutting or removal of bone and tissue. It is minimally invasive, so there is less pain, risk of infection, bruising and swelling as there can be with conventional sinus surgery. There is also minimal downtime.
Dr. Gilliam wants you to know you will benefit from balloon sinuplasty if you have:
- Chronic nasal or sinus problems
- Stubborn sinus infections that don’t respond to medications
- Headaches around your eyes
- Difficulty breathing through your nose
- Chronic bad breath or bad taste in your mouth
If you have chronic sinus problems, you owe it to yourself to explore balloon sinuplasty. Stop in and see an expert ENT professional like Dr. Christine Gilliam of Everyone’s ENT & Sinus in San Antonio, Texas. She can help you decide if balloon sinuplasty would be beneficial to you.

The essence of a robust research lies not just in proving a hypothesis, but sometimes, in debunking it. Enter the realm of the ‘null thesis statement‘. Contrary to popular belief, these statements can be as insightful as their affirmative counterparts. With our guide on Null Thesis Statement Examples, you’ll delve into the art of crafting compelling null hypothesis, learn the nuances of writing them effectively, and garner tips to ensure they add substantial weight to your academic endeavors.
What is a Null Thesis Statement?
A null thesis statement, often encountered in scientific research, is a hypothesis statement that proposes there is no statistically significant relationship between specified sets of variables. It’s a formal means of stating that any observed effect in the data is due to chance alone. In hypothesis testing, researchers initially assume the null hypothesis to be true and then use statistical methods to test its validity.
What is the Best Example of a Null Thesis Statement?
Consider a research study aiming to determine whether a new teaching method improves student performance. The null thesis statement might be: “The new teaching method does not result in a statistically significant difference in student performance compared to the traditional teaching method.”

What is a Null Statement in a Thesis?
The term “null statement” in a thesis or research context typically refers to the “null hypothesis.” The null hypothesis is a fundamental concept in statistical null hypothesis testing. It represents the default or status quo position and is the statement that there is no effect or no difference. Essentially, the null hypothesis serves as a starting point that researchers use to test against.
For example, if you are studying the effect of a drug on patient recovery time, the null hypothesis might state that the drug has no effect on recovery time. Through research and testing, you aim to either reject or fail to reject this null hypothesis.
Can Null Hypothesis be a Statement?
Yes, the null hypothesis is almost always presented as a statement. The statement generally specifies that there is no effect, no difference, or no relationship between variables. It’s articulated in a manner that makes it testable through experimental or observational studies. The goal in many research projects is to disprove or reject the null hypothesis, thereby lending support to the alternative simple hypothesis, which suggests that there is a significant effect or difference.
How do you Write a Null Hypothesis in a Statement? – Step by Step Guide
1. Understand Your Research Question: Before you write a null hypothesis, you must have a clear research question. Are you trying to determine if one variable affects another? If so, how?
Example Research Question: Does drinking green tea daily lead to weight loss?
2. Identify the Variables: Identify your independent variable (the cause) and the dependent variable (the effect).
Example: Independent Variable: Daily consumption of green tea Dependent Variable: Weight loss
3. Frame the Null Hypothesis Statement: The null hypothesis will typically suggest that the independent variable does not affect the dependent variable.
Example Null Hypothesis: Daily consumption of green tea has no effect on weight loss.
4. Ensure the Statement is Testable: The null hypothesis should be clear and specific enough that it can be tested using scientific methods.
5. Avoid Words of Judgement: Words like “good”, “better”, or “improves” are subjective and can be ambiguous. Stick with clear, objective language.
6. Use Simple Language: Avoid jargon or complex language when simpler words will do. This ensures your hypothesis is easily understood.
7. Make It Specific: If your research is testing a specific quantity or threshold effect, incorporate this into your hypothesis.
Modified Example: Daily consumption of 500ml of green tea has no effect on weight loss over a period of 3 months.
8. Review with Peers or Advisors: Before finalizing your null hypothesis, it’s a good idea to review it with classmates, peers, or academic advisors. They might offer a fresh perspective or point out ambiguities.
9. Prepare to Test: Once your null hypothesis is well-defined, design your study or experiment to test it. Remember, the goal is often to reject the null hypothesis in favor of an alternative hypothesis that suggests a significant effect or relationship.
In conclusion, a null hypothesis is an essential component in the scientific research process. It provides a clear statement to disprove, ensuring that research is focused and results are interpretable | <urn:uuid:7d18bd8e-a472-4d77-af7c-1e69f5c10177> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://www.examples.com/thesis-statement/null-thesis-statement.html | 2023-10-04T20:18:32Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233511406.34/warc/CC-MAIN-20231004184208-20231004214208-00698.warc.gz | en | 0.879582 | 5,303 |

I see people ask all the time, "I would like to do both visual AND astrophotography - and my budget is limited. What should I get?" 9 times out of 10, the response is either "Get a bigger budget" (not always possible) or "Spend ALL your money on the mount." Here's an alternative solution that checks nearly every box for doing both - without breaking the bank.
Did you know it is possible to look towards the center of our galaxy, as well as the complete opposite direction, out towards the outer arms of the Milky Way, looking towards the rest of the cosmos? It's true. And you don't need a telescope to do it - just a bit of knowledge of where each point is located in the sky, so you can look that way.
It may seem a little hyperbolic to say it is the best time to see Mars until 2035 - but it's true! In two years - well, about 26 months - we will get another good look at Mars when we are closest to it again. | <urn:uuid:cea52589-e5e3-43f8-863b-70e0d3065762> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://www.eyesonthesky.com/articles/3/ | 2023-10-04T19:07:49Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233511406.34/warc/CC-MAIN-20231004184208-20231004214208-00698.warc.gz | en | 0.970534 | 216 |

Factum Foundation’s team have been finding ways to bring all the evidence from different recording systems together in a way that makes it easy to analyse. The work started some years ago when we scanned a small panel believed by Bastiaan Blok, its owner, to be by Van Gogh. New recordings of the panel suggest there are genuine reasons for experts to investigate the claim. Although Factum Foundation is not involved in making attributions, we do provide the data to help others make informed decisions.
Factum Foundation has been working with the Musei Capitolini and Fondazione Prada on the ambitious recreation of the 13m-tall Colossus of Constantine for the exhibition 'Recycling Beauty' (until February 27, 2023). The scale of the project involved almost all of Factum's various areas of expertise over the course of nearly ten months.
More on this project
Factum Foundation and Factum Arte worked with Fondazione Palazzo Te on recreating five designs by Giulio Romano as physical objects for the exhibition 'Giulio Romano. La forza delle cose'. Curated by Barbara Furlotti and Guido Rebecchini, the show focuses on the artist's talent and ingenuity in object design at the Gonzaga court. The intricate designs were rematerialised as elaborate 3D models by Irene Gaumé, Jordi Garcia and Manuel Franquelo at Factum Arte, before being 3D printed in sections and cast in a variety of materials depending on the size and complexity of the details.

In the spring of 2022 Factum Foundation began filming a documentary video about ARCHiVe to help define, clarify, and communicate what is happening inside the center: ongoing projects, experimental work, collaborations, spaces, methods, and key players. ARCHiVe, in partnership with the Cini Research Institutes and partners, is working to enhance and convert into digital form the rich documentary heritage of the Fondazione Cini itself and beyond, to study-involving other institutions and scholars-new methods for preserving and transmitting it thanks to digital technologies, and, finally, to propose training activities with professionalising value in the field of Digital Humanities.
From January 17 until February 7, a team of digitisation specialists from Factum Foundation recorded in high resolution the Chamber of the Giants, the Chamber of Cupid and Psyche and the Hall of the Horses inside Palazzo Te. The project was part of a partnership with Palazzo Te for the 2022 event season ‘Mantova: L’arte di vivere’. The palace, built as a place of leisure for the Gonzaga family in the mid 16th century, was designed and frescoed by Giulio Romano.
The data, acquired using LiDAR, photogrammetry and composite photography, is currently being processed and will belong to Fondazione Palazzo Te and help with the documentation, preservation, study and dissemination of the rooms, also enabling future diverse and innovative exhibition projects.
As part of the seminar series jointly organised by the Zurbarán Centre of Durham University and the ARTES Iberian and Latin American Visual Culture Group in association with the Embassy of Spain and the Instituto Cervantes, Adam Lowe and Charlotte Skene Catling offered a tour of ‘In the Blink of an Eye, Transience and Eternity in the Spanish Golden Age’. As part of the Auckland Project, Jonathan Ruffer commissioned Factum Foundation and Skene Catling de la Peña to rethink the concept and role of a museum for the top floor of the Spanish Gallery, in Bishop Auckland.
In 2014, the Museo del Prado commissioned Factum Arte to carry out high-resolution 3D scanning and composite colour photography of Francisco Goya's Black Paintings, for documentation and research purposes. It was the first large-scale project of high-resolution 3D digitisation of the surface of paintings ever realised.
The methodology and outcomes of this project have set the benchmark of how surface relief should be considered as a primary source for understanding the complex historic trajectories of artworks and cultural objects within a museum collection.

Xavier F. Salomon, Chief Curator of The Frick Collection, introduces the recreation of the marble holy water font on which the bronze 'St. John Baptising' by Francesco da Sangallo was originally displayed. In the summer of 2020, the original font was recorded in high resolution by Pedro Miró using structured white light scanning. A team of craftsmen from Factum Arte then worked on recreating the marble stoop without the oxidisation and cracks that the original one presents after more than four hundred years of use.
'Factum Arte in Madrid uses the latest 3D scanning and printing technology to create copies of some of the world's most famous masterpieces — saving them from the ravages of time and even helping to bring back missing works from the dead.'

On 19th November, Michelle O’Malley from the Warburg Institute talked with Ana Debenedetti and Adam Lowe about the recording of Raphael’s Cartoons at the V&A in August 2019.
While the discussion focused on Raphael, it also looked more generally at the role of digital recording in light of the museum closures and the restrictions caused by COVID-19. High-resolution recording, display and rematerialisation technologies have serious implications for the study, display and dissemination of works of art - both online and offline access will be increasingly important in providing access to culture.
The founder of Factum Foundation, guides you through 'The Materiality of the Aura. New Technologies for Preservation', at Palazzo Fava, Bologna until 10th January 2021. Facsimiles of sculptures, paintings and books, digital restorations and physical recreations, 3D renders, 3D models and a variety of objects are presented in the six rooms of the exhibition, focussing on: the surface of paintings, sculptures, cartography, video-mapping and projections, manuscripts and, finally, Factum Foundation's work in the Valley of the Kings. The city of Bologna, where the Foundation has been involved in projects since 2010, is also a unifying factor tying together many of the rooms.

On the 4th and 5th February 2020, a team from Factum Foundation has carried out the high-resolution digitisation in 3D and colour of 'An Old Woman Cooking Eggs' at the National Galleries of Scotland, Edinburgh. In this video, Aidan Weston-Lewis, chief curator at National Galleries of Scotland, and Enrique Bocanegra, director of the Casa Natal de Velázquez, talk about the importance and relevance of this collaboration and the potential for digital technologies to recover Velázquez’s legacy, as part of a wider collaboration with CEEH (Centro de Estudios Europa Hispánica).

Factum Arte has been working with the Cabildo de Gran Canaria since early 2019 on a project to record and re-materialise an exact facsimile of ‘Cave No. 6’, which has been incorporated into the UNESCO World Heritage List in July 2019. The facsimile has been installed by our team in January 2020 and will be on permanent view at the new Risco Caído Interpretation Centre in the town of Artenara. The project is an exceptional demonstration of how new technology can serve to promote accessibility to vulnerable cultural heritage sites around the world whilst monitoring and maintaining their present condition.

In 2018-2019, the Annunciation has undergone a complex process of cleaning and conservation: the results was presented to the public as the centrepiece of the exhibition Fra Angelico and the Rise of the Florentine Renaissance at the Prado (May to September 2019). In-depth documentation is integral to current conservation practice. As part of the Annunciation’s conservation the Prado team performed an array of technical studies including high-resolution visible colour photography, infra-red reflectography and X-ray radiography, all of which enabled them to better understand the painting’s historical as well as its present condition.

On 24th October 2019, exact facsimiles of two lamassu statues (Assyrian protective deities in the form of human-headed winged lions) have been presented at the University of Mosul by Factum Foundation and the British Museum, with the logistical support of the Spanish Ministry of Defense, the Iraqi Government and the financial support of the Rijksmuseum van Oudheden. The project was managed by Ali Aljuboori, the director of the centre for Assyrian studies at the University of Mosul. Find out more.
The cave of Kamukuwaká, a sacred petroglyph site representing the cosmogony of the inhabitants of Upper-Xingu, Brazil, and registered national monument, has been intentionally mutilated. In Sept. 2018, on a Factum Foundation visit to conduct high-resolution documentation of the sacred cave as a precautionary measure for such an attack, it was discovered that these petroglyphs had been systematically destroyed with chisels.
The data captured from this trip was combined with photographic documentation dating from before the attack to produce an entire 3D recreation of the cave. The Wauja have been working with the team in Factum to ensure the digital recreation is perfect and that the petroglyphs are correct. Part of this process is explored in this video: the careful digital restoration of the petroglyphs, carried out by Factum's expert 3D sculptor in close correspondence with the Wauja community.
This film was created as part of the campaign to save the Whitechapel Bell Foundry.
Gavin Kingcome’s short film contains interviews with different people affected by the decision to close the foundry, from current bell-ringers to representatives of the East London Mosque, the foundry’s nearest neighbour, who were never consulted by the property developer about plans to convert the foundry into a boutique hotel.
The map of the world made by the 12th-century Islamic cartographer Al-Idrisi for Roger II of Sicily was a masterpiece of mapping which remained the most technically sophisticated world-map for three centuries after its production.
The silver disk is now lost, and the Entertainment for those wanting to discover the world (Nuzhat al-mushtāq fi'khtirāq al-āfāq), survives only through later copies. Factum Foundation has undertaken to re-create Al-Idrisi’s fabled map. Neither facsimile nor copy, this re-creation nonetheless combines painstaking historical research with advanced digital techniques and the highest levels of craftsmanship, paying tribute to the lost original and offering yet another layer to add to the complexity of its transmission. | <urn:uuid:669a6eea-e98d-405b-8829-13ab7341f9cc> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://www.factumfoundation.org/ind_fa/117/conservation | 2023-10-04T19:41:32Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233511406.34/warc/CC-MAIN-20231004184208-20231004214208-00698.warc.gz | en | 0.930073 | 2,343 |

Translational Medicine Research, Development and Implementation Project
“Mightier than the tread of marching armies, is the power of an idea whose time has come” (Victor Hugo)
Translational Medicine (TM) is the emerging field which focuses on using what is learned in pre-clinical studies to do smarter things in the clinic. Translational Medicine helps in the course of predicting, preventing, diagnosing, and treating diseases. Translational Medicine also uses what can be gleaned in clinical studies to sharpen and improve what is done in pre-clinical efforts to discover new medicines and medical devices. Translational medicine represents a paradigm shift in the biomedical research enterprise whose ultimate purpose is to improve human health via a “bench to bedside” approach.
Translational Medicine is a relatively young area of bio-medicine, in which pharmaceutical & Bio-Tech companies use a patient driven approach to drug or medical device development. Translational medicine involves the transformation of laboratory findings into new ways to diagnose and treat patients. Many biotech companies are introducing Translational Medicine departments charged with the task of facilitating the transition of basic research into practical treatments and clinical trials.
To define translational research further; “It is research [that] transforms scientific discoveries arising from laboratory, clinical or population studies into new clinical tools and applications that improve human health by reducing disease incidence (preventative medicine), morbidity and mortality.” Another perspective is “Translational research fosters the multi-directional integration of basic research, patient-oriented research, and population-based research, with the long-term aim of improving the health of the public.”
This emerging paradigm in healthcare has always been the guiding light for the foundation’s founding members activities in supporting doctors and research scientists all over the world who think “out of the box” and whose passion is based on leaving this world at a ripe old age of 120 a better place than they found it, not based only on becoming rich and famous. “Those who strive for perfection will achieve excellence, for only God is perfect.”
In order to achieve this excellence we must stand on the shoulders of those great individuals who have made so many discoveries and contributions to humanity as a stepping stone and guide to discovering the many secrets of nature. We must first understand nature before attempting to faithfully copying her. By standing on the shoulders of giants we will be better able to see farther into the future. “If you want to accurately predict the future, create it!” (Abraham Lincoln) Below is a partial list of Nobel Prize winners whose discoveries we had the honour to actually implemented both in clinical settings as well as the jungles of Africa to effectively treat many suffering patients as well as to save many lives, and in this light path, we will continue to travel.
Some of the Nobel Prize Winners Whose Shoulders We Stand On!
The foundation’s members have been and continue to be involved in numerous disruptive and game changing medical and biomedical research projects. However, due to budget constraints we must now focus on just a few and prioritize those projects which will save the most lives and which can be implemented most rapidly. As more funding is made available, the board of directors will chose other qualified projects to be funded according to the foundations criteria.
Priority projects which need funding for immediate implementation: | <urn:uuid:d1a30202-623b-4dad-ac1f-c93c41399e0e> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://www.familyofisrael.org/translational-medicine | 2023-10-04T21:00:50Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233511406.34/warc/CC-MAIN-20231004184208-20231004214208-00698.warc.gz | en | 0.94581 | 697 |

- Owed you reasonable care
- Violated his responsibility
- Led to your physical injuries
- Led to your financial damages
If you and your lawyer prove these legal elements of negligence, your lawyer might know if you have a personal injury claim that entitles you to compensation. If so, your lawyer can guide you through the financial compensation process.
Types of Injuries that May Lead to Personal Injury Compensation

- A car accident caused by distracted driving
- Falling down icy residential or commercial steps
- Being physically assaulted due to faulty security
- Being bitten by a neighbor’s dog or in a dog park
- Medical malpractice, including misdiagnosis or delayed diagnosis
These examples are in no way exhaustive. If you believe you have the basis of a personal injury lawsuit, review the details of your accident with a team member at a local personal injury law firm.

Do they make a 200 amp breaker?
Leviton200 Amp 2-Pole 120/240VAC Plug-On Main Circuit Breaker.
What size breaker do I need for a 200 amp service?
In general, a 200-amp panel should handle no more than 160 amps at once. It’s important to note that people can have 300 or even 400 amps worth of breakers in a 200A panel, as they don’t use all circuits at the same time. Calculating how many circuit breakers you need is also dependent on your home electrical loads.
How much is a 200 amp circuit breaker?
New (4) from $160.00 & FREE Shipping.
How much do main breakers cost?
Main Breaker It can cost between $500 and $2,000, depending on the amperage and the number of circuits. If a homeowner plans on adding rooms to the house, a subpanel may need to be installed to handle the additional electricity requirements.
How many breakers can I have in a 200 amp panel?
The number of circuits and breakers you can install in an electrical panel is limited by the panel’s design. Most 200 amp panels will have 40 breaker slots but can accept more circuits with tandem breakers. 120v single-pole breakers will use 1 breaker slot, while 240v double-pole breakers will use 2 breaker slots.
What size main breaker do I need?
How do I size a breaker? Generally, you should size a breaker for 125% of the load (or 25% extra capacity) and no less. Oversized breakers can allow wires to heat above safety levels without stopping the current. On the other hand, undersized breakers may continuously trip under normal operation.
How many 100 amp breakers can you put in a 200 amp panel?
Nothing inherently wrong with 2 100A breakers in one box plus lots of other breakers – i.e., oversubscribing the 200A total is perfectly fine if real-world usage will stay under 200A.
What size entrance wire for 200A residential?
The wire that you use for 200 amp service depends on the material, and you’ll need #4/0 wire if it is aluminum. Whether it be copper, copper-clad, or aluminum, let’s take a look at what size wire you need for 200 amp service.
How to find the proper size of circuit breaker?
Determine all the running current. The first thing to do before you start sizing the breaker is to determine all your devices’ current.

As we grow older we lose muscle strength and sense of balance and this can lead to a fall. The more active we remain, the better the chance of keeping our muscles strong, our joints mobile and maintaining good balance.
Jenny Enever, one of Council’s Ageing Well Ambassadors and a MLHD Gentle Exercise Leader in Howlong has been staying active and at home during the COVID-19 health pandemic.
Jenny's tips for a good exercise plan include:
This is to warm up all muscle groups that are used in the up-coming program.
Watch the video of Jenny's undertaking some warm up exercises from this page.
This is where we increase the activity of our heart and lungs such as walking or riding the bike.
This includes balance and strength exercises. Take the time to focus on safety, good technique, balance, breathing, relaxation and having FUN.

How Can You Stay Fit From Your Seat?
Chair exercise allows those who otherwise would not be able to exercise consistently improve their strength, cardiovascular fitness, and mobility—without the high risk of injury present during traditional exercise routines. Seated exercises are gentler on the joints and will reduce pain, not add to it.
Jenny Enever has prepared a video of herself doing a “Chair Stand.” This exercise helps strengthens your abdomen and thighs, and may make it easier to get in and out of the car. A handout is also available for download from this page.
The NSW Office of Sport have also compiled a great resource to help you find suitable ways to safely exercise in and around your home during the COVID-19 outbreak.
The exercise handout is for educational purposes only. You should consult your physician or other health care professional before starting this or any other fitness program to determine if it is right for your needs. | <urn:uuid:b7c6e0bf-c1bd-4750-a37c-b8361105a4ae> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://www.federationcouncil.nsw.gov.au/Community/Seniors/Active-Seniors | 2023-10-04T20:10:41Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233511406.34/warc/CC-MAIN-20231004184208-20231004214208-00698.warc.gz | en | 0.941901 | 439 |

If you love to gamble, then you’re in luck because online casinos allow you to play real money games from the comfort of your home. It’s just as exciting as playing in a land-based casino, and you can do it at any time of the day or night. You can even use your mobile phone to play for real money on the go!
The best casino online has hundreds of different slots and table games, a top-notch customer support team, and quick payouts. Its user interface is easy to navigate, and it accepts a variety of payment methods including crypto-based and credit and debit cards.
Most online casinos don’t make their own games; they rent them from software companies that are regulated to ensure fairness. This is good for players because it means they won’t be able to rig the game in any way. It also means that the games are tested regularly to ensure they’re reliable and fair, so you can be confident in playing them at an online casino.
When choosing an online casino, it’s important to check its licensing. Make sure it’s licensed by a respected and trusted authority in your region, so you know you’re playing at a safe site. You should also verify that your bank is authorized to process withdrawals from the casino.
Generally, you’ll find that most online casinos offer free spins to new players as part of their welcome bonus. This is a great way to try out the casino and see how it works before you spend any money. It’s not uncommon for the casino to add more bonuses as you continue to play.
Some online casinos also offer loyalty bonuses to their players. These bonuses are based on how much you’ve spent with the casino, and can include things like cash prizes or free tournament entries.
The casino’s gaming selection is also very important, as it should have a range of games that appeal to different types of players. The more games you can play, the better your chances of winning big!
It’s a good idea to check whether an online casino offers live dealer games, too. These are popular because they give players the opportunity to interact with a real dealer via a high-quality camera, so you can watch them deal and shuffle cards in live video. This is a great option for people who enjoy live action, and it can also help to improve your social skills and make the experience more immersive.
In addition to live dealer games, many online casinos also feature a wide range of other casino games. These can include slots, table games, and even poker. It’s worth noting that some online casinos also offer sports betting, too.
You can usually sign up for an online casino with just a few clicks and have your account set up in no time. The only downside is that some sites require a download, but this isn’t a big issue. | <urn:uuid:b67f284e-f63d-4aa6-b1cf-2efede54f85b> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://www.fetchdaycare.com/how-to-choose-the-best-casino-online/ | 2023-10-04T20:58:41Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233511406.34/warc/CC-MAIN-20231004184208-20231004214208-00698.warc.gz | en | 0.967153 | 604 |
Online slot machines are a fun and simple way to try your luck. Although they’re games of chance, there are several tips and tricks that can help you increase your chances of winning big. Some of these tips are as easy as adjusting your bet size or changing the game you play. Some are more involved, such as studying the paytable or choosing a game with a low volatility.
Before you start playing, make sure to set a budget for how much money you can afford to spend. This will prevent you from overspending, which is a common mistake among slot players. It will also help you determine how long your session can be. It is also important to understand the mechanics of slot online and how different features can affect your winnings.
While most people know that online slots are games of chance, they don’t always realize that there are strategies they can use to improve their odds of winning. Some of these strategies involve setting a budget, choosing the right game, and understanding how the RTP rate works. The RTP rate is a percentage of all wagered money that the slot machine pays back to its players. It can vary from one game to another, so it’s important to check the RTP before you start playing.
Another strategy is to choose a slot with a high RTP. This will give you the best chance of winning over the long run. It’s also a good idea to avoid slots with a high volatility, which can cause large swings in your bankroll.
Besides the RTP, there are many other factors that can impact your chances of winning at slot online. These include the number of reels, paylines, and bonus features. While these factors may seem minor, they can have a significant effect on your bankroll. The more paylines you have, the higher your chances of hitting a winning combination. Also, pay attention to the game’s bonus features, including Wilds and Scatters. These symbols can be very valuable and will boost your chances of winning.
Many slot players believe that certain times of the day or month are luckier than others, but this is just a superstition. The fact is that there is no better or worse time to play slots than any other time. All the results are determined by the RNG software, and each spin has the same probability of producing a win. Therefore, following superstitions like this is a quick and easy way to lose money. | <urn:uuid:0d328c35-7106-4708-aad4-96b6e8ffbc4b> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://www.fetchdaycare.com/how-to-win-at-online-slots/ | 2023-10-04T21:03:20Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233511406.34/warc/CC-MAIN-20231004184208-20231004214208-00698.warc.gz | en | 0.959198 | 503 |
Why do you need a savings account?
Checking accounts are great for every day purchases, but when you’re planning for the future, a savings account is the best choice. A savings account is a deposit account held securely at a banking institution and typically earns interest. Rather than keeping large sums of money at home where it could be lost, stolen, or spent easily, a savings account provides a safe space for your money to grow. But, there are things to consider beforehand, so ask yourself the 4 questions below when opening a savings account:
Is the institution federally insured?
- If you leave money under your mattress or in your top drawer, what are the chances of replacing it if it’s stolen? Unfortunately, pretty low. When you open an account with an FDIC-insured bank or NCUA-insured credit union, your money is safe, even if the bank fails. These government institutions insure up to $250,000 per customer.
Is the savings account free?
- Most savings accounts are free to open, but there can be maintenance fees, paper statement fees and transaction limits. Banks typically offer ways to avoid such fees, like enrolling in e-statements, maintaining a minimum daily balance or registering for direct deposits. You also could be charged for more than six transactions per month, which is a requirement set by the Federal Reserve’s Regulation D to ensure banks maintain enough on-hand reserves. Although the Fed removed this limit in April 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic, banks are not required to enforce that change. It’s important to read the fine print and speak with a bank representative to clarify account requirements.
Is the interest rate competitive?
- Savings accounts help your money make money through compound interest. Interest is the cost of borrowing money, so by depositing your funds with a bank, the bank will pay you for borrowing (holding) those funds. As your balance grows each month, so does the amount of interest you earn . Generally, savings accounts offer monthly interest rates of 0.01% APY to .05% APY and some online banks even offer up to 1.00% APY.
Still a bit confused? Watch this short video for more about interest.
Is the account accessible?
- Have you heard the saying “out of sight, out of mind”? That’s how you’ll want to think of your savings account. Unlike checking accounts, savings accounts are not liquid. You will want to have mobile, online, and ATM access, but the goal of a savings account is to save. Plan a routine transfer from your checking to your savings account to begin building a 3-6-month emergency fund, a short-term savings, and a long-term reserve. Your future self will thank you later!
It’s a lot to think about, but remember to celebrate as you hit each savings target, taking you closer to your financial goals! Ready to get started?

They are joined on the list by Wutipong Dasom. The 25-year-old is one of the most experienced players in this list despite being only 25-year-old. He represented Thailand in the 2013 FIBA Asia Championship in Manila but missed this year’s Stankovic Cup due to injury.
The preliminary roster also includes young candidate Suwichai Suwan as well as American raised half-Thais Moses Morgan and Frederick Lish.
Morgan and Lish both had impressive seasons in the TBL but one of them will make the final cut. Suwan, meanwhile, was in the Thailand team that played at the 2016 FIBA Asia U18 Championship in Tehran. He averaged over 7 points per game and was one of Thailand’s brightest stars in that tournament alongside Justin Bassey.
The top five teams in the FIBA Asia Challenge will earn for their respective sub-zones an extra berth in the 2017 FIBA Asia Cup (formerly the FIBA Asia Championship) | <urn:uuid:9cb6838b-cbe6-427f-be47-5cc168dfa405> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://www.fiba.basketball/asia/challenge/2016/news/debutantes-thailand-call-up-24-players-for-fiba-asia-challenge | 2023-10-04T20:10:19Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233511406.34/warc/CC-MAIN-20231004184208-20231004214208-00698.warc.gz | en | 0.888603 | 554 |

So I just realized some of these articles were in my spam folder and just read this one. Several of the guys on my work team are based in Philly and just love TJ. So I had snapped a picture of TJ and “Sixth Man” talking trash at halftime. Hilariously, TJ went to all of the ushers and security at the south basket asking to have him “removed.” 😂.

Introduction: Human Microbiome (02:32)
The human body contains about 25,000 genes. Experts are interested in the role of genes in human circumstances. There has been a paradigm shift regarding what is going on inside the body.
Human Microbiome (02:02)
The microbiome consists of trillions of microorganisms that live in the body; it contains 9 million genes. A newborn’s microbiome is initially colonized by its mother’s bacteria, and it can vary based on a variety of factors.
Microbiome Imbalance (04:26)
People living remotely in the Amazon have nearly twice the biodiversity in their guts as healthy Americans. Modern advances may be causing people to lose microbiota and contributing to disease. Fecal transplants are used to treat certain diseases.
Studies show that obesity can be transmitted from one mouse to another, via fecal transplant. Research suggests microbiota affect energy harvest. There may be a connection between the microbiome and other conditions.
Colon Cancer (02:49)
Genomic analysis identifies an association between fusobacterium and colorectal carcinoma. Between 10 and 30 percent of colorectal cancer patients seem to harbor a significant amount of this bacteria; fusobacterium present in tumors negatively impacts patient prognosis.
Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (03:11)
Most people who suffer from myalgic encephalomyelitis report having a flu-like illness from which they never recover. Research suggests the cause may be reduced diversity and altered composition of gut bacteria. Can this condition be treated with probiotics and diet?
Parkinson's and Autism (04:08)
Most neurons outside of the brain reside in the gut. Research suggests bacteria in the gut play a role in the neurodegenerative diseases; the balance between good and bad bacteria may be integral to prevention.
Phage Therapy and Microbial Dark Matter (04:21)
Bacteriophages are ubiquitous viruses that are found anywhere bacteria exist; they outnumber every other organism on Earth. Humans obtain phages when they are young, and they adapt to the host’s specific mucus. Experts question the potential for using them to treat various conditions.

Here we discuss the avalised bill of exchange meaning, benefits, and differences with a letter of credit. Having a proper understanding of a bill of exchange itself is one thing however, having an avalised bill of exchange could be viewed as a different concept and provide a completely different meaning. There’s a reason the bill of exchange was furthered and proper comprehension of what it means to have your bill avalised would be highly advantageous to you, the party that drafts the bill, or that party receiving the bill because it is still widely unknown or misunderstood by many of the banking and financial professionals and legal counsels.
A bill of exchange is an agreement that binds one party (the drawee) to pay a fixed amount of cash to another party (the payee) as of a predetermined date or on-demand which is normally ordered by another party (the drawer). Bills of exchange are most often used by international traders. Since other forms of payment have become more popular in recent times, the use of these types of bills of exchange has been on a steady decline.
There are usually three entities that are involved in a bill of exchange transaction which include the drawer, the drawee, and the payee. Bills of Exchange are widely used in the business world for paying off debts and other international transactions, however, in their normal state, the payment by the debtor to the payee is not promised or assured. In order to solve this problem, the concept of an avalised bill of exchange was introduced. In order to fully comprehend what an avalised bill of exchange means we first have to understand what the word “avalise” means.
Avalised bill of exchange meaning
What does the word “Avalise” mean?
In business, to avalise means to involve and have a third party, (usually a bank or any other financial institution) endorse or guarantee the obligation of a buyer to a seller depending on the terms of their agreement, such as a bill of exchange or a purchase agreement. The bank or any other financial institution, by avalising the agreement serves as a guarantor in the transaction.
The act of avalizing can serve as a method of securing the rights of a receiving party in a transaction. It is an obligation that financial institution makes with their customers and is often viewed as an act of goodwill by both parties because it almost certainly guarantees a settlement in the transaction.
Avalised bill of exchange definition
An avalised bill of exchange simply means a bank’s guarantee to keep to the payment of a Bill of Exchange. It is an unalterable, unconditional promise to make the required payment stated on the bill of exchange on the due date.
As previously stated, a bill of exchange on its own does not guarantee the payment by the drawee so, to obtain such a guarantee of payment it is vital to have the bill avalised by a bank, normally the drawee’s (debtor’s) account holding branch. These Financial institutions or financiers normally handle the avalisation of bills of exchange. In this case, the bank (financial institution) simply acts as a guarantor for the payment, therefore, providing a certain level of assurance from the perspective of the payee. This simply means that the bank takes away the risk from the payee and makes that risk theirs which ensures that the transaction is held up by the drawer.
The process involved in avalising a bill of exchange
- Processing and acceptance
The drawer or the creditor will send the fully formed bill of exchange to his or her bank together with any other documents relevant to the transaction, for example, interest agreements or any importation documentation for the goods or services being used. If goods are involved in the transaction, they may or may not have been shipped or delivered at this point so there’s generally no rule of thumb and it just depends on the nature of the transaction or the agreement between the parties involved.
Please, it should be noted that it is not the duty of a bank or financial institution receiving these relevant documents to validate or investigate the documentation, therefore, both parties involved in the transaction must ensure the clarity and validity of all any of the documentation that they involve when they send their bill of exchange to these banks or financial institutions.
Processing and Acceptance
The processing bank will send all the documents to the drawee’s or debtor’s bank with instructions not to release the documents until a Bill has been approved or accepted by the drawee and avalised by his or her bank. The bank will send the documents and the bill to the drawee’s bank on a “collection” basis which means that the release of the documents would be done only after the bill has been approved by the debtor and avalised by the bank.
The debtor’s bank sends the prepared bill to the drawee requiring him to accept the bill and authorize them to avalise it. The drawee accepts the bill and authorizes it by signing it and the bank can now avalise the bill.
This is a process whereby the bank will then add its guarantee and record a liability against the debtor that will remain in place until the bill transaction is honored by the debtor and all the necessary payments have been made. This is essentially an endorsement that the bank or the financial institution makes in order to ensure that the transaction is honored.
Cost of avalising a bill of exchange
The cost of avalising a bill of exchange varies depending on where you are situated geographically. However, we can provide an estimate just to give you a fair idea of what to expect when want to get your bill avalised. The financial institution that adds its aval will make a charge which is payable by their customer, the drawee. As previously stated we cannot be specific as to the percentage of this charge because it would vary from location to location, however, as a guide most financial institutions may place their guarantee charging on a ‘base’ rate of around 2 – 3% p.a, charged on a quarterly or monthly basis (depending on the agreed-upon terms).
The financial institution would normally set a service fee for avalising a bill, as this is normal because it is just like any other service given by banking or financial institutions to its customers like any other transaction that the bank carries out, for example, creating drafts, making transfers, deposits and so on. When the avalised bill is issued, it forces a direct payment obligation to the bank or financial institution involved and it needs to treat it with full capital provisioning. Regardless of the costs involved in obtaining an avalised bill of exchange, avalising your bills would surely pay dividends to you because it assures that you are paid what you are owed in the exact time specified in your transaction.
Why choose an avalised bill of exchange?
Like any business transaction, the seller would always love a guarantee of his or her payment once he or she delivers the goods or services as required. In simple terms, no one likes to be owed.
Therefore, if you want to increase your chances of collecting your invoice payments then getting your bills avalised would be your best bet. In this age with massive technological advancements, the avalised bill of exchange may fall short of some other better and improved payment options like MasterCard, PayPal, skrill, and other forms of internationally accepted payment options, but it still offers many great benefits.
The introduction and acceptance of a bill of exchange in your transaction stand as a formal commitment by the parties involved. This means that you are a hundred percent certain of receiving full payment on the due date of your invoice. Another reason that you would choose an avalised bill of exchange is that not a lot of people in the financial world truly have a firm grasp of the meaning of the concept.
Therefore, knowledge of avalisation gives you an edge over your competitors in the sense that they may be using many other forms of payment which may not necessarily guarantee that they’ll receive their payments in time and some may even use the bill of exchange but have no idea on what avalising it would mean for their businesses. Therefore, just the knowledge of avalising your bills gives you a competitive advantage and though it may not seem like much, in business a one percent edge could mean more than you know.
The Difference Between Letter of Credit and Avalised Bill of Exchange
A letter of credit and an Avalised bill of exchange are often used interchangeably by people in the financial world, however, there are differences between them. When you obtain an avalised bill of exchange, the level of security offered by the avalised bill is close to that of a letter of credit, in the sense that the drawer’s bank is providing a guarantee of payment.
In the case of an avalised bill, it must be remembered that the insurance provided by the financial institution covers the term of the bill following acceptance and authorization by the drawer and is avalised by the bank. In some cases, the guarantee will not be provided until the goods or services have been provided and all the associated documents have been validated through the banking system on “collection” however, the payee can retain constructive control over the agreed-upon goods to a certain degree if the documents include a full set of original bills of lading.
Documentary letters of credit are issued by the drawer’s bank before the goods are delivered and they are normally prior to the manufacture or sourcing of the goods or services, thus providing the endorsement at an earlier stage, but it’s still subject to the presentation of specific documents which are in line with the letter of credit.
The costs involved in the acquisition of a letter of credit are likely to be far higher than that of an avalised bill of exchange because of the longer “risk” period that the bank is exposed to as well as the increased processing (vetting, authentication, amending L/Cs and scrutinization of the documents).
A payee is likely to pay no more than a standard term collection (documents against acceptance), however, the drawee will pay the bank’s avalising or guarantee commission as outlined above in addition to the standard collection charges.
Practical Application of Avalised Bill of Exchange
Theoretically, using the bill of exchange may sound easy but you need to understand the practical application of the Avalised bill of exchange. Assuming the bank avalising the bill has a good reputation among the locals, is located in a relatively politically and economically stable country, and is accepted by the payee’s bank (or an alternative financial institution in the exporter’s country), the avalised bill may be provided at a discount, providing the payee with 100% irrevocable funds at any time up to the completion of the transaction on the bill.
It is advisable that the payee communicates with their bank (or any other financial institution) before accepting and authorizing the avalisation of a bill. This is done to examine if the bank is prepared to offer such a service and the costs involved in financing such as service.
The financial institutions will normally require the following information:
- The Value
- Term of the bill of exchange (for example, 60 days from the date of the bill)- this is subject to agreement between the parties involved in the transaction.
- The Avalising bank name and location.
- The transaction details, ie: buyer goods end user.
Things to note before avalising your bill of exchange
- Avalisation can only be applied to bills of exchange that mature at a future date. This means that when avalising your bill you must make sure that the terms agreed are to be completed sometime in the future. It is up to the parties to discuss whether the goods or services would be delivered before or after the payment has been completed.
- Once the bill of exchange has been avalised it cannot be annulled or canceled without the drawer’s consent and is in effect an unconditional guarantee.
- The avalised bill is only as secure as the security of the bank providing it and as so should be examined with caution. The financial strength of the bank and the economical stability of the country in which the aval is arranged should be checked with the banks or any financial institution that is being used. Though the avalised bill itself means that your payment is assured, the credentials of the bank providing the endorsement also have to be examined to ensure that all the grounds are level.
- It is crucial that the avalised bill is obtained prior to the payee’s transfer or delivery of the goods or services to the debtor. This could be achieved in many ways like delaying shipment of the goods until the avalised bill has been received or accepted, or ensuring the documents of title to the goods, the complete bunch of original bills of Lading, remain under their control until the avalised bill is received. This can be achieved by sending the documents via the banks on a collection basis as previously stated.
- It is also advised that the drawer obtain an agreement for the drawee to arrange for with bankers to avalise the bill prior to presenting it for authentication and acceptance. | <urn:uuid:339f7098-3955-4634-b64a-35d09df66620> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://www.financialfalconet.com/avalised-bill-of-exchange-meaning/ | 2023-10-04T19:53:53Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233511406.34/warc/CC-MAIN-20231004184208-20231004214208-00698.warc.gz | en | 0.965331 | 2,726 |
Is prepaid rent a permanent account? Prepaid rent is the rent paid before the rental period to which it is related. Recording rent paid in advance could be a bit of a hassle because the payment would normally appear as rent expense in the income statement during the time at which the invoice was entered into the accounting software.
Nevertheless, this payment is actually a prepaid rent because the payment was recorded and the check was cut in the month that is before the period to which the payment relates. At times, payments are made in advance for future benefits. These advance payments also known as prepaid expenses are recorded in accounting as assets on the balance sheet. Hence, prepaid rent is recorded on the balance sheet as the amount of rent paid that has not yet been used.
Since it is recorded on the balance sheet, is prepaid rent a permanent account or a temporary account? In this article, we will discuss whether prepaid rent is a permanent account or a temporary account.
What is prepaid rent?
Prepaid rent is an advance payment on a lease of property; a current asset account that reports the amount of future rent expense that has been paid in advance of the rental period. The amount reported on the balance sheet as the prepaid rent is the amount that has not yet been used up or expired as of the balance sheet date.
The amount of the prepaid rent is carried on the books of a business renting the property as a current asset account that will be expensed at some point in the future. As the business does its bookkeeping, the prepaid rent expense account allows the bookkeeper to track the value of the prepaid rent as an asset until the time that the amount in the account is spent.
All businesses must maintain bookkeeping records in order to meet tax and other regulatory obligations. Periodically, businesses generate a set of financial statements to summarize their financial position which conforms to a set of generally accepted accounting principles that standardize financial reporting, for comparison to other businesses.
When a business enters into a rental agreement to lease property, it usually has to pay not only the current month’s rent but also a certain number of months in advance as security for performance under the agreement. Upon the satisfaction of certain conditions, this security deposit can be refundable at the end of the lease or can be treated as a nonrefundable prepayment that pays the months at the tail end of the agreement. However, whether the security deposit is refundable or non-refundable would determine how the amount is treated for bookkeeping purposes.
The non-refundable rent payments that cover the rent for future months are carried on the books of the property’s owner as deferred unearned revenue. Whereas, on the books of the business renting the property, the amount is carried in the prepaid rent expense account. This account is capitalized or decreased when an amount of the prepaid rent is actually used up to pay for a month’s rent.
The prepayment of rent can apply to months that are years in the future. Therefore, until the amount of prepaid rent is actually applied in payment for a month’s use of the leased property, it must be properly recorded as a current asset on the company’s balance sheet. The prepaid rent account on the balance sheet allows the company to show that it has a current asset that will benefit the company at a future date.
Prepaid rent as a prepaid expense in accounting
Businesses may prepay rent that covers months in advance in order to get a discount, or probably because the landlord needed a prepayment. Whichever way, prepaid rent is treated as prepaid expenses in accounting which is recorded as an asset on the balance sheet until it has been used up.
When a company prepays for rent (expense), it is recognized as a prepaid asset on the balance sheet, with a simultaneous entry being recorded that reduces the company’s cash (or payment) account by the same amount. Therefore, in accounting, the proper way to account for prepaid rent is to record the initial payment in the prepaid rent (or prepaid assets) account, using the entry below:
Then, the accounting software records the following entry, when the check is cut :
Lastly, the business records the following entry sometime during the month to which the rent payment actually applies, which finally charges the payment to expense:
In fact, a prepaid rent payment should be recorded on the balance sheet as an asset until the month when the company is actually using the facility to which the rent relates. When the prepayment has been used up, it is then charged to the expense account.
A major concern when recording prepaid rent is that one might forget to shift the asset into an expense account in the exact month that the rent is consumed. If this occurs, the financial statements would under-report the expense and over-report the asset. Therefore, in order to avoid this, it is best for the business to keep track of the contents of the prepaid rent (or prepaid assets) account. The account should be reviewed before closing the books at the end of each month.
Nevertheless, the accounting treatment for prepaid expenses is different under the cash basis accounting. In this accounting method, expenses are only recorded when payment is issued. Therefore, a rent payment made under the cash basis accounting would be recorded as an expense in the period in which the expenditure was made, irrespective of the period to which the rent payment relates.
An example of prepaid rent in accounting
Assume Company ABC is paying for an office space for six months in advance, for a total of $24,000. The initial journal entry for this is as follows:
Then, the prepaid rent balance sheet account is reduced as each month ends by the monthly rent amount, which is $4,000 per month (i.e $24,000/6 months).
At the same time, the company would recognize a rental expense of $4,000 on the income statement. As a result, the monthly adjusting entry would be as follows:

Permanent and temporary accounts explained
Permanent accounts are the accounts that continue to maintain ongoing balances over time. They are accounts that are not closed at the end of the accounting period and are aggregated into the balance sheets. Permanent accounts are measured cumulatively and refer to the asset, liability, and equity accounts that are reported in the balance sheet. That is, the accounts that are reported on the balance sheet such as asset accounts, liability accounts, and capital (equity) accounts are all permanent accounts.
Asset accounts such as Prepaid rent, Prepaid Expenses, Accounts Receivable, Cash, Inventories, Furniture and Fixtures, etc. are all permanent accounts. Even contra-asset accounts such as Accumulated Depreciation and Allowance for Bad Debts are also permanent accounts. Liability accounts such as Notes Payable, Interest Payable, Accounts Payable, Loans Payable, Rent Payable, and Utilities Payable are all examples of permanent accounts.
The capital accounts of all types of businesses are permanent accounts such as capital stock, reserve accounts, and retained earnings in corporations as well as owner’s capital accounts in a sole proprietorship, and partners’ capital accounts in partnerships.
Temporary accounts, on the other hand, are accounts that begin each fiscal year with a zero balance. At the end of the year, the ending balance of a temporary account is shifted to a different account, which is to be used again in the next fiscal year to accumulate a new set of transactions. At the end of the fiscal year, the ending balances in temporary accounts are shifted to the retained earnings account.
The process of shifting the balances out of a temporary account is known as closing an account. The balances in temporary accounts usually increase over the course of a fiscal year; they rarely decrease. These types of accounts are used to compile transactions that impact the profit or loss of a business during a year. Hence, the balances in temporary accounts are used to create the income statement.
Therefore, the types of temporary accounts include revenue accounts, expense accounts, gain and loss, and the income summary account. Hence, examples of such accounts are revenue/sales, cost of goods sold, compensation expense, supplies expense accounts, loss on assets sold account etc. This means that temporary accounts include transactions related to revenue and expense that are aggregated into the income statement.
In conclusion, all the income statement accounts are temporary accounts and all the balance sheet
accounts are permanent accounts.
Is prepaid rent a permanent account?
Yes, prepaid rent is a permanent account. Permanent accounts are accounts that are aggregated into the balance sheet, which include transactions related to assets, liabilities, and equity. Since prepaid rent is recorded as an asset on the balance sheet, it is a permanent account. However, once the prepaid rent has been used up or expired, the expense is recorded on the income statement.
The majority of prepaid rent (or expenses) appear on the balance sheet as a current asset unless the expense is not to be incurred until after 12 months, which is actually rare. Prepaid rent is a type of prepaid expense. Prepaid expenses are classified as assets because they represent goods or services that will be received in the future, usually within a year.
At times, payments are made in advance for future benefits. These prepaid expenses are recorded in accounting as assets on the balance sheet. But once incurred, the expense is recorded on the income statement and the asset account is reduced. Nonetheless, the GAAP matching principle prevents these expenses to be recorded on the income statement before the asset is actually realized.
Conclusively, prepaid rent is not recorded on an income statement initially; rather it is first recorded on the balance sheet as a permanent account. Then, as the benefit of this prepaid expense is realized, or as the expense is incurred, it is recognized on the income statement.
Why prepaid rent is a permanent account and not a temporary account
Prepaid rent (or prepaid expenses) aren’t included in the income statement in accordance with the Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP), and as such are not temporary accounts. The GAAP matching principle in particular requires accrual accounting, which demands that revenue and expenses must be reported in the same period as incurred no matter when cash or money exchanges hands. This means that expenses should be recorded when incurred. Therefore, prepaid rent as a prepaid expense isn’t recognized on the income statement when paid because it is yet to be incurred. It is therefore recorded on the balance sheet as an asset making it a permanent account. | <urn:uuid:e4ec80cb-7afc-47d2-b723-6ef139021b78> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://www.financialfalconet.com/is-prepaid-rent-a-permanent-account/ | 2023-10-04T20:44:09Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233511406.34/warc/CC-MAIN-20231004184208-20231004214208-00698.warc.gz | en | 0.962966 | 2,304 |
"What do I need to know so as not to burden my children?"
This was a question from one of the participants during an online session held in partnership with Tsao Foundation and NLB on 16 Sept 2021.
The topic was 'Help! I don't want to burden my children' and we explored possible reasons why parents could feel like they're burdening their loved ones and ways to work around it.
So what can possibly help?
If you've ever tried:
a. ploughing through the fine print of insurance policies,
b. calculating your way to the best home loan: fixed or floating? or
c. figuring out the 'healthiest' options in the supermarket aisles,
you'll know that: we don't know what we don't know.
But once we do, the more we realise we don't know very much.
Because as with most new things we encounter for the first time, it's a whole new world for us - the terminology, the (often unspoken) rules, the shortcuts to getting things done better and faster - all of which are familiar only to insiders.
So until we get there, it's going to be a struggle if you really want to dive in and get a good grasp of things.
It's the same with healthcare, but ESPECIALLY healthcare.
Because unlike most other things, we're confronted with the complex web of care only at the point of crisis: mum has fallen, says she's in pain and the A&E is your first solution.
Sure, the insurance you bought her can cover some of the bill.
But what about coverage for the emotional stress you all are about to experience if her condition turns out to be something more serious?
Who's going to care for her after she gets home?
What're the other sources of help available?
(Can you tell your home care from your day care from your integrated home and day care?)
What's the eligilbity criteria for different services
And what're the subsidies applicable?
A million dollars and a domestic helper will not solve the problem.
Knowing your options and being psychologically prepped will.
Sometimes ignorance offers no second chance...so let's start the conversation today! With friends and with those whom we know we'll be caring for in time to come.

Interpretive Letter to Tamara K. Salmon, Investment Company Institute
Application of NASD Rules 3110, 2510, 2310, and IM 2310-2 to a default IRA account established by plan sponsor in accordance with Department of Labor safe harbor provisions.
March 17, 2005
Tamara K. Salmon
Senior Associate Counsel
Investment Company Institute
1401 H Street, N.W.
Washington D.C. 20005
Re: Application of NASD Rules to Default IRAs
Dear Ms. Salmon:
This letter responds to your February 15, 2005 letter in which you ask for interpretative guidance regarding the application of several NASD rules to Individual Retirement Accounts (IRAs) established pursuant Section 401(a)(31)(B) of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended by the Economic Growth and Tax Relief Reconciliation Act of 2001 (EGTRRA) and governed by regulations recently adopted by the Department of Labor (DOL).
Certain employer-sponsored retirement plans require mandatory distribution of an account of $5,000 or less at the time an employee leaves employment. Under EGTRRA, if the employee participant in such a plan fails either to elect a cash distribution, or to direct the plan sponsor to roll the proceeds of the account into another eligible retirement plan, the plan sponsor must transfer the account balance to a qualified IRA.
DOL Regulation 404a-2 provides a safe harbor pursuant to which a plan sponsor is deemed to have satisfied his or her fiduciary responsibilities under ERISA in connection with the transfer of an account to a default IRA.1 The regulation places strict limits on the types of investment products into which the rolled-over funds may be invested, and requires that the chosen investment must be "designed to preserve principal and provide a reasonable rate of return" and must "seek to maintain, over the term of the investment, the dollar value that is equal to the amount invested". The safe harbor also limits permissible investment products to those offered by certain institutions, including FDIC-insured bank or savings associations, credit unions, certain guaranteed insurance companies, and registered investment companies. The safe harbor also requires a written agreement between the plan sponsor and the IRA provider regarding fees and expenses, and guaranteeing the right of the plan participant to enforce the terms of the agreement against the account provider. Before the default IRA can be established, the plan sponsor must notify the participant in writing using the participant's most recent mailing address in the records of the employer and plan sponsor.
Application of NASD Conduct Rules to Default IRAs
Your letter seeks interpretative guidance that an NASD member will not be deemed to be in violation of NASD Rules 3110, 2510, 2310, and IM 2310-2 by virtue of opening a default IRA at the direction of a plan sponsor and in compliance with EGTRRA and DOL Regulation 404a-2, even though the account is opened (1) without the express authorization of the account holder (the plan participant) and (2) with only limited information about the account holder.
NASD Rule 3110(c) requires that for each account held by a member firm, the firm must make reasonable efforts to obtain certain information about the account holder before the settlement of the initial transaction, including his or her current employer, address, and whether the account holder is an associated person of another member. When a default IRA is opened pursuant to EGTRRA, however, the member firm may only be able to receive limited information relating to the plan participant who will be the beneficial owner of the account. In addition, Rule 3110(f) requires that members deliver a copy of any customer agreement that contains a predispute arbitration clause to the customer within a specified period of time. Rule 2510 requires a member firm to obtain written authorization from a customer in connection with any account transaction, including opening the account. Rule 2310, NASD's suitability rule, requires firms to make reasonable efforts to obtain certain information from the customer, and to have a reasonable grounds for believing that a recommendation is suitable for a customer based on the customer's financial situation and needs. IM-2310-2 defines fraudulent activity to include effecting unauthorized transactions in a customer's account.
Because the transfer of covered distributions to default IRAs is mandated by EGTRRA, in the view of NASD staff, a plan sponsor acting in a fiduciary capacity in accordance with the safe harbor of Regulation 404a-2 is deemed to be authorized by federal rules to have the capacity to act on behalf of the account holder for purposes of the authorization, notice and delivery provisions of the rules at issue. Therefore, a member firm may satisfy Rule 3110(c) based on information provided by the plan sponsor, and may satisfy the delivery requirements of Rule 3110(f) by providing a copy of an agreement containing a predispute arbitration agreement to the plan sponsor within the specified time.2 Likewise, the statute provides the necessary authorization for opening and maintaining an account under both Rule 2510 and IM-2310-2. NASD notes, however, that firms must obtain required signatures and additional information from, and make delivery of necessary documents to, the account holder if and when he or she asserts ownership or control over the account.3
With respect to Rule 2310, NASD staff believes that an investment in a default IRA, initiated by the Plan Sponsor in accordance with a recommendation of a member firm, that complies with the terms of Regulation 404a-2's safe harbor is de facto suitable, and a member need not obtain any additional information for the purposes of making a suitability determination with respect to qualifying accounts.
NASD notes that the guidance contained in this letter applies only to potential regulatory issues that might arise as a direct result of compliance with EGTRRA and Regulation 404a-2 and does not extend to unrelated violations of the same or other rules.
I hope this letter is responsive to your inquiry. Please note that the opinions expressed herein are staff opinions only and have not been reviewed or endorsed by the NASD Board of Governors. This letter responds only to the issues you have raised based on the facts as described herein, and does not address any other rule or interpretation of NASD, or all the possible regulatory and legal issues involved.

1Fiduciary Responsibility Under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 Automatic Rollover Safe Harbor, Final Rule, 69 Fed. Reg. 58018 (Sept. 28, 2004) (DOL Adopting Release).
2 This interpretation applies solely to the delivery requirement for agreements containing predispute arbitration clauses. The staff takes no position with respect to the enforceability of such clauses, and is not deeming the plan sponsor to be an agent of the account holder for the purposes of enforceability. The staff also notes that nothing in this letter should be construed to prohibit a firm from executing a predispute arbitration agreement with the account holder if and when the account holder exercises control over the account.
3 NASD notes that this is consistent with the approach taken by the Department of Treasury and other federal regulators with respect to information required to be obtained by banks and financial institutions at the time of account opening by the USA PATRIOT Act. See DOL Adopting Release. | <urn:uuid:03b1182d-7328-411f-b113-482ecfd7aea6> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://www.finra.org/rules-guidance/guidance/interpretive-letters/tamara-k-salmon-investment-company-institute-0 | 2023-10-04T19:15:56Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233511406.34/warc/CC-MAIN-20231004184208-20231004214208-00698.warc.gz | en | 0.929824 | 1,498 |

Discovering your dishwasher is broken is never going to be the highlight your day, particularly if you are also faced with the expense of phoning a professional as well as taking time off work to let them in just to determine the issue.
Fortunately it’s possible to determine and often sort out plenty of dishwasher faults by yourself without needing to call for dishwasher repair, especially if you have a multimeter.
You could find you can fix the issue quite easily by yourself, particularly if you are mechanically minded, and if you can’t at worst you will be better placed to describe the issue when you do call a repair person.
Before you start looking for a new dishwasher there are a few possible problems you can identify fairly easily.
Safety Warning: Never attempt repairs while your dishwasher is plugged in.
In advance of checking your machine for faults make sure that your machine hasn’t been inadvertently switched off, as well as that there are no tripped switches in the circuit breaker.
This is also an opportune moment to see if the child lock hasn’t been activated and try resetting your dishwasher.
You will most likely require the user manual to do this as machines are all different but the child lock is usually quite easy to activate without meaning to. Likewise, if the dishwasher has lights yet will not run, the solution might be as easy as resetting the program.
Once you have eliminated these faults it’s time for the real investigations to begin.
To test these electrical components you will need a multimeter, or VOM (volt-ohm-milliammeter) to measure the resistance as well as test the electrical components are working as they are meant to.
The first place to start is the door latches plus door latch switches. Your dishwasher is designed not to start if the door latches are not working for obvious reasons. There’s no way you would want start the dishwasher without meaning to with the door open.
A defective switch will prevent your machine from starting as well as completing a cycle. You may wish to check the switch with a multimeter. The switch is generally found behind the front door panel or control panel.
Make sure you have disconnected power to the machine before accessing the door panel as well as checking for continuity to prevent yourself from getting an electric shock.
If the latches or switches are not working you will need to replace them.
If the door latch and door latch switch, are working as they should the next thing to test is the timer or electronic control.
This is the part of the machine that sends power to all the other parts the machine needs to operate such as the pumps, and the water inlet valve.
If your dishwasher is controlled electronically rather than mechanically then it could have to be tested while connected, in which case you will need to call a repair man.
This is the part of your machine that selects the cycle and will vary depending on the make or model of your dishwasher. A faulty selector switch or even one that has not been fully pressed down may result in the dishwasher not to turn on.
You should be able to visually investigate to see if the buttons are depressing fully, or you might need to disconnect the machine in order to gain access to the control panel to test the connections for continuity using a multimeter.
The motor relay is an alternative component that could cause your dishwasher not to run, thus this could be the problem if you have tested the control panel and so know that there should be power going to the motor.
To check this you will have to locate the motor as well as locate the relay that should be mounted next to the motor. This may then be removed plus tested with the help of a multimeter, if broken you may have to replace it.
When you have tested all the above and are yet to find the problem the next component to test is the thermal fuse. Note: Not all machines have a thermal fuse.
If you locate the fuse and discover it is blown you will need to replace it in order to restore power to the control board.
The final part of the machine you should be able to investigate that might prevent your machine from working is the drive motor. This is the part of the machine that moves the water around to wash your dishes.
Once you have checked the other components but still aren’t getting anywhere this might be the culprit especially if you noticed a loud humming coming from the machine.
You should be able to locate the motor by taking off the panel at the bottom of the machine. Check it with the help of a multimeter and replace if faulty.
If you don’t have a multimeter and are not confident in taking panels off your machine and testing the parts then you will need to call a professional sooner rather than later.
If you are happy to perform the above checks then you may well be able to sort out the fault without assistance. But if you are not sure it might be easier to call in the professionals.
Don’t forget to examine your insurance and your home cover as appliance repairs may be covered meaning the expense may not be as high as you think.

As least as winter ball is concerned. Anibal Sanchez has called it quits on his 2008 winter ball experience and given the numbers it is best that he did.
At the Marlins' request, right-hander Anibal Sanchez has ended his participation in the Venezuelan Winter League after two starts.
Sanchez joined Magallanes against the Marlins' wishes, Beinfest said, and posted an 11.37 ERA in two starts. Sanchez allowed 15 hits and eight earned runs in 6 1/3 innings without a single strikeout.
"We really didn't want him to pitch in the first place," Beinfest said.
I don't put much stock into his two start performance but it does amplify the uncertainty as to whether he will be able to pitch in 2009 with any consistency at all.

Underwater Scene Cover Up
Updated: Aug 8, 2022
Julie contacted me about covering up some scars on her left forearm; she had some ink located there already and didn't want to cover that up, but add to it. She was thinking about some type of underwater scene, to go with her mermaid, and came super prepared with print outs (which I love-- it makes my job so much easier) of some great examples of coral reefs, colorful fish and tattoo styles that she liked and hoped would work well for a cover up tattoo. (She'd read my Cover Up Tattoos page and followed my instructions-- another win.) It wasn't until our second meeting that I learned she lives in southern Oregon and drives up every time she sees me, gets her ink and then heads right back again!

Struggling to get his campaign back on track, Rick Scott is on the Space Coast today, talking about the one thing he wants to talk about: jobs.
Scott made big promises to the Space Coast. He said he’d continue talks with Embraer, a firm Charlie Crist recruited in 2008, and he gave tax breaks totaling millions to BlueWare, BRS Aerospace, and other firms. He promised to recruit companies from “all over the world.”
The result for the Space Coast? Zero new jobs, according to a Times-Herald investigation.
Even worse, Scott “wants to slash Space Florida’s budget by two-thirds, leaving it with $10 million and stripping away its investment fund central to creating incentive packages,” according to Florida Today. “We’d like to say we’re optimistic about prospects this year, but have deep concerns. And they start with Gov. Scott.“
“Rick Scott promised Floridians 1.7 million jobs over seven years, and he has failed to deliver. He promised jobs for the Space Coast, and he failed to deliver. Floridians get the pattern — Rick Scott’s rhetoric just doesn’t match reality, because he’s not looking out for folks who need a job. He’s looking out for those at the top, ” said FDP spokesman Joshua Karp.
Rick Scott Made 34 Jobs Promises In Brevard, Resulting In Zero Jobs and $6 Million Paid In Incentives. A Times-Herald investigation revealed 34 jobs promises made in Brevard County, with $6 million paid to businesses in incentives and $52 million more pledged. The [Miami Herald Rick Scott Jobs Tracker, December 2013]

Russia is not only one of the world’s largest producers of oil and gas but is also one of the five largest emitters of greenhouse gases globally. Whilst the country has a history of poor environmental management, increased awareness of the polluting effects of oil and gas production has led to a recent tightening of regulations aimed at reducing gas flaring and venting.
In 2012, the Russian government introduced new penalties for operators who flare or vent excessively. These new regulations mean that the fines for companies which vent or flare more than five per cent of the total gas they produce are now much more significant. Any operator which uses this method is liable to pay a fee to the Russian government, and should an operator be caught releasing harmful emissions into the atmosphere, these fines are multiplied. As of 2014, the government increased the multiplier tariff from 4.5 to 25, and increased the penalty for operators who flare without installing acceptable measuring devices to a 120 multiplier.
Smaller oil and gas fields which produce fewer than five million cubic metres of gas, where cumulative production is less than or up to five per cent of recoverable reserves and where the volume of non-hydrocarbon components is less than half of the associated petroleum gas (APG) produced, are exempt from these penalties altogether.
Russia has also put in place stringent regulations covering the equipment used to measure gas that is being vented or flared. These rules mean that vented or flared gas should be measured with an accuracy of plus or minus five per cent. All of the measuring equipment being used by operators must therefore have relevant approval certificates and be recorded with the State Register of Measuring Devices.
Russian authorities have also attempted to encourage the use of associated petroleum gas by granting priority access to the nation’s gas pipelines to operators that can show they are utilising it. Some analysts believe that this policy is showing signs of success, with an increase in oil and gas companies investing in associated petroleum gas capture, storage and utilisation. However, they also point out that a lack of reliable data and transparency—when it comes to the methods used for measuring greenhouse gas emissions— makes it difficult to quantify the true impact of these new policies.
Despite the Russian government’s goal of increasing the Oil & Gas Industry’s utilisation of associated petroleum gas to 95% –reducing the need for gas flaring or venting—Russia has yet to achieve a significant reduction. A recent 2013 report by Carbon Limits suggests that the practice still accounts for up to 25% of the sector’s overall greenhouse gas emissions. One of the main reasons for this is that investments in new oil production capacity are much higher than investments in advanced APG utilisation. For instance, gas flaring has increased dramatically in new oil and gas production regions like Eastern Siberia, outweighing the progress being made to reduce flaring at established oil fields like that in Khanty Mansyisk.
Flare gas reduction is not yet prioritised over expansion of oil production activities, despite increased awareness, and this has resulted in a lack of resources for improvement. It will take considerable investment to reach the policy target of 95% APG utilisation, with current estimates indicating figures from $8 to 16 billion.
In recent years the Russian government has taken many positive steps to help reduce gas flaring and venting in the country. If Russia is to play its part in hitting the targets laid out at the Paris Climate Conference (COP21) in November 2015, helping to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and limit the global temperature rise to two degrees centigrade, further investment is needed. | <urn:uuid:9a01f9a3-a735-4a00-aa0b-76510886ce9e> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://www.fluenta.com/flaring-regulations-series-russia/ | 2023-10-04T19:39:52Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233511406.34/warc/CC-MAIN-20231004184208-20231004214208-00698.warc.gz | en | 0.956749 | 730 |

Hey! Thanks for coming! We’re so excited that you’ll be playing for us. You may have a few questions. I’ve got a few answers. Let’s see if they match up.
So what exactly is Folk All Y’all?
Borne of a house show series hosted by a former booking agent, Folk All Y’all is now a public concert series focused on world-class singer-songwriters representing a full range of Americana/roots sounds and perspectives. We’re also focused on helping touring musicians make a living, so 100% of the door goes to our artists. Always.
Folk All Y’all is a volunteer-run nonprofit (yes, volunteer, singular; “we” is me, Andria). We operate the series thanks to Patreon subscriptions, the very kind sponsorship and onsite support of Crosstown Arts, and our own merchandise, so your offer to play includes permission to let us exclusively stream the show to our subscribers and use photos/video for promo. We’ll of course give you all those assets, too.
So how do I promote this?
We’ll have a ticket link available at least 30 days before your show and we’ll create a post in our Events listing. You can link to that post on your tour page, social media, etc. – it gives potential guests all the info they need to find us. We post the shows on all major local online calendars and are happy to pass along a media list.
Where will I be playing?
We have held the series in a number of venues, but as of October 2019, nearly all events are presented at The Green Room at Crosstown Arts, a dedicated listening room space operated by a nonprofit entity graciously allowing us to continue our ticketing and payment model.
Where do I stay?
Crosstown Arts typically provides a two-bedroom apartment or one-bedroom hotel unit for the night of the performance, located right there inside Crosstown Concourse. Please fill out their lodging form a week or so ahead of time so they have all your details and can get it ready for you, and let them know when you’ll be arriving so they can be there to show you to your room. They’ll have staff waiting for you, so if your schedule changes, please update them on your ETA.
If you need more space, we can guide you toward hotels or AirBnBs that have offered us discounted rates.
How do I get there?
The Green Room is located in [the second floor of the east atrium of] Crosstown Concourse, a 1-million-square-foot vertical urban village in the middle of Memphis. Google will get you here, but then what?
Here’s a map of the campus. You can either pull up to the temporary parking by the front door of the central atrium or follow the yellow arrows around (and through!) the building to the back loading dock (best if you’re going to be a while). Crosstown Arts’ Residency Team may have more current/specific details about how to load in and where to meet them, so text them when you arrive and defer to their guidance. For overnight (and anytime) parking, most of the onsite garage is free (just not the first couple rows of 2-hour spaces) and patrolled 24 hours. If you need anything while you’re there, Crosstown Arts’ music programming manager, Jenny Davis, is frequently on-site and can be reached at 901.507.8015. I’m also usually just a couple blocks away.
When do I go on?
Generally our shows have 4:30pm load-in, 5:30pm sound check, 7pm doors, and 7:30 start time (all times Central). We’ll do an intro about the series before things get rolling; you can be onstage for that or make an entrance.
We typically suggest the show being two 45-minuteish sets with a drinking/merch-buying break in the middle, but the flow is ultimately up to you.
What do I need to bring?
What do I eat?
There are multiple dining options inside Crosstown Concourse. We will email an electronic voucher you can use at any restaurant or business in the building. We’ll have snacks and a couple drink tickets in the Green Room green room, too.
What/How/When do I get paid?
The ticket price is set for each show depending on your exposure in the market and expected draw, but will never be lower than $20. Like I said, 100% of sales go right to you. Any cash payments will be handed over immediately following the show and we can either write a check on-site or send a Zelle transfer shortly thereafter.
Can I sell stuff?
Of course! We’ll have a merch area available with a table, lamp, and electrical outlet. If you need help staffing it, please let us know at least two weeks out so we can find someone.
Do I, um, have to hang out?
The amount of time you choose to mingle with me or the guests is totally up to you.
Would you please accept a copy of my latest CD in thanks for hosting?
Yes, of course, that’s so nice of you.
Can I come back and play again?
We love you. We think you’re amazing. That’s why we booked you in the first place. But with our limited show schedule, we restrict repeat artists to three per year, on a first-come, first-serve basis. You are part of the Folk All Y’all family and always welcome to stay at the house when you come through, though, and if we can’t book you, we’ll help you line up another local gig as best we can.
Can I ask you something else?
Whatever you’d like. Email [email protected] if you have any other questions, and my phone number should be in your advance info. | <urn:uuid:7678d24a-d3d8-46c5-ba91-3108c434c1c3> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://www.folkallyall.com/for-our-artists/ | 2023-10-04T20:29:37Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233511406.34/warc/CC-MAIN-20231004184208-20231004214208-00698.warc.gz | en | 0.935252 | 1,288 |
Oh To Be Wise Meditations
He will take our weak mortal bodies and change them into glorious bodies like his own, using the same power with which he will bring everything under his control. For those God foreknew, He also predestined to be conformed to the image of His Son, so that He would be the firstborn among many brothers. Our bodies are buried in brokenness, but they will be raised in glory. They are buried in weakness, but they will be raised in strength. What an amazing thought that when we see Jesus as He truly is face to face. We will be like him not only in heart and character, but also in our feeble bodies. Our bodies will be transformed to the same eternal body Jesus has. These things are too wonderful for me to understand! When Christ, who is your life, appears, then you also will appear with Him in glory. We now children of God, and what we will be has not yet been revealed. We know that when Christ appears, we will be like Him, for we will see Him as He is.

A Museum Le Corbusier? The ESTP Paris project
Students take over Maisons La Roche and Jeanneret
As part of a partnership with ESTP Paris (Chaire Ingénierie des Bétons) and the Fondation École Française du Béton, 210 students in their 2nd year at ESTP Paris, specializing in construction and in a dual Engineering/Architect program, are studying the creation of a Museum Le Corbusier on the current site of the Foundation.
The “Projet Ingénierie des Bétons XD” aims to present proposals for the “intelligent and sustainable renovation” of emblematic concrete buildings. The aim is to install the Foundation in a nearby house, open the Maison Jeanneret to the public, create a new reception area and boutique, and use the basement for museographic purposes.
This 4-month project began in February and resulted in the production of a rehabilitation/renovation report, as well as videos and digital models. Five projects were entered in the Les génies de La Construction competition for the final on June 8, 2022. The Immersion puriste project by Perrine Cenier, Quentin Deveze, Luca Fiorucci, Albane Geoffroy, Donia Gharbi, Charlotte Gosset-Grainville, Marc Lafforgue and Grégoire de La Haye was awarded 1st prize in the SUP category of the Génies de la Construction competition. This “intelligent territories” competition encourages students to think about the challenges of regional planning and construction. | <urn:uuid:2a2bfc64-8540-46a8-a677-c9bb93faa2f7> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://www.fondationlecorbusier.fr/en/news/a-museum-le-corbusier-the-estp-paris-project/ | 2023-10-04T19:03:58Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233511406.34/warc/CC-MAIN-20231004184208-20231004214208-00698.warc.gz | en | 0.858548 | 335 |
One writer traces the evolution of Durban Indian cuisine, and the role her indentured ancestors played in shaping the city’s culinary and cultural landscape (@IshayGovender), for MIC, October 2018
On South Africa’s palm tree-lined east coast, within the humid port city of Durban and its surrounds, a unique style of Indian cuisine has evolved over the course of 158 years. Locals say you can’t leave before you try one of the Durban curries: smouldering hot mutton curry studded with potato chunks called “gravy soakers,” fiery fish curry spiked with black tamarind and curry leaves; or bunny chow, a hollowed-out quarter-loaf of white bread filled with curry. One popular filling is the finger-staining broad bean curry — the only way to eat it is with your hands. Durban curry and rice was labeled a “national dish” in 1961 in Indian Delightsby Zuleikha Mayat and the Women’s Cultural Group, an instrumental community collection that was also the first cookbook by local Muslim authors.
The dark, complicated history of Durban Curry
The story of this cuisine commences long before my ancestors, the indentured Indians, arrived in Durban. More than 150,000 Indians were sent to the South African port city at the request of the British between 1860 until 1911, mainly agricultural laborers from lower castes. They were destined for the unruly sugar cane plantations, railways, fishing and boating industries.
The history of Durban Indian food starts, of course, in India, with its bounty of staples and spices, and the way it became entwined with the food available in South Africa, which was cultivated and reared by the indigenous Zulu people.

Vaccine specialist Novavax (NVAX -4.43%) announced the launch of a phase 2b clinical trial in South Africa to test the effectiveness of its coronavirus vaccine, NVX-CoV2373. The trial is an opportunity for the company to test the vaccine in an environment where the pandemic is surging during the cold weather of winter. South Africa has had more than half the COVID-19 cases on the African continent.
Novavax's vaccine consists of an antigen derived from the coronavirus spike protein plus a proprietary adjuvant, an ingredient that boosts the body's immune response. The company released phase 1 data from a phase 1/2 trial of the vaccine on August 8, which showed that NVX-CoV2373 produced antibodies to the virus numerically superior to levels found in patients who have recovered from the disease. The phase 2 portion of that trial will begin with about 1,500 adults in the U.S. and Australia this month. The phase 2b test announced today will enroll about 2,665 healthy adults and about 240 medically stable, HIV-positive adults.
Novavax is somewhat behind the leaders in the race for an approved vaccine for COVID-19, but the level of transmission in South Africa may give the company a chance to evaluate the efficacy of its vaccine very quickly. The company has also already lined up manufacturing capacity for over 2 billion doses. | <urn:uuid:e872a1a3-6d8a-4077-8bbe-9da221405d91> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://www.fool.com/investing/2020/08/17/novavax-launches-midstage-coronavirus-vaccine-tria/ | 2023-10-04T21:27:41Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233511406.34/warc/CC-MAIN-20231004184208-20231004214208-00698.warc.gz | en | 0.954363 | 292 |
Manchester City have suffered a significant blow to their Premier League title and Champions League hopes after an in-form forward underwent surgery.
Pep Guardiola’s side are second in the Premier League table, eight points behind leaders Arsenal with 11 games remaining.
They are also in the Champions League quarter-finals and will face Guardiola’s old side Bayern Munich for a place in the final four against either Chelsea or Real Madrid.
But they will have to navigate at least the first couple of weeks after the international break without Phil Foden, who underwent surgery after pulling out of the England squad with appendicitis.
It was reported on the eve of England’s European Championship qualifier against Ukraine that Foden had withdrawn from selection due to feeling unwell, despite training in the build-up to the game.
News broke on Saturday evening and Sunday morning that James Maddison was expected to start on the left of the Three Lions’ attack at Wembley and Foden’s absence might partially explain why.
Get well soon, Phil ❤️
— England (@England) March 26, 2023
The 22-year-old had already endured a difficult international break, coming on in the 69th minute of the famous win over Italy but being substituted 12 minutes later after Luke Shaw’s red card necessitated a tactical switch.
Foden has largely struggled to make his mark for his country, scoring only three goals in 23 senior caps while missing the latter stages of Euro 2021, and fading in the 2022 World Cup quarter-final defeat to France.
Until recently he had even been floundering for Manchester City but five goals and two assists in his last six club appearances represented a huge upturn in performances and output.
It is unknown how long Foden will be sidelined for, with Manchester City releasing the following statement on their website:
‘Manchester City can confirm Phil Foden has left the England squad after undergoing surgery in London for acute appendicitis.
Phil will now return to Manchester to begin rehabilitation.
‘He will not be fit for this weekend’s Premier League game at home to Liverpool and it is unclear at this stage how long he will be unavailable for.
‘Everyone at Manchester City wishes Phil a speedy recovery.’
The Premier League champions are already sweating over the fitness of striker Erling Haaland, who was described by his father as “touch and go” for the Liverpool game.
“He must prioritise his health, try to get his body back in place. Based on the assumptions, he is doing well, but he is very sad,” Alf-Inge told Norwegian media at the weekend, his son having withdrawn from international duty with a groin problem.
“First and foremost, it is the national team that makes the decision, but they cooperate, of course. They must have as much knowledge as possible about this and of course ask the doctors and physios at Manchester City. Then they come up with something together.
“Manchester City has a partnership with a hospital in Barcelona. He has been there for further checks and treatment. Now he has been here [in Marbella] for a couple of days with the physio from the club. So he gets good follow-up.” | <urn:uuid:83aabebb-1010-461e-b40c-4276858ebe01> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://www.football365.com/news/manchester-city-pessimistic-update-in-form-forward-surgery-blow | 2023-10-04T20:23:34Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233511406.34/warc/CC-MAIN-20231004184208-20231004214208-00698.warc.gz | en | 0.966674 | 684 |
The Defence Secretary has revealed that a Russian fighter jet recently "released a missile" in the vicinity of a Royal Air Force aircraft over the Black Sea.
Ben Wallace told the Commons the incident occurred in "international airspace over the Black Sea" on 29 September, adding that an "unarmed RAF RC-135 Rivet Joint" plane was "interacted with" by two Russian SU-27s, one of which "released a missile in the vicinity of the RAF Rivet Joint beyond visual range".
Detailing what happened between the Russian fighter and the RAF aircraft, Mr Wallace said: "I would also like to share with the House details of a recent incident which occurred in international airspace over the Black Sea.
"On September 29 an unarmed RAF RC-135 Rivet Joint, a civilian-style aircraft on routine patrol over the Black Sea was interacted with by two Russian armed SU-27 fighter aircraft. It is not unusual for aircraft to be shadowed and this day was no different.
"During that interaction, however, it transpired that one of the SU-27 aircraft released a missile in the vicinity of the RAF Rivet Joint beyond visual range.
"The total time of the interaction between the Russian aircraft and the Rivet Joint was approximately 90 minutes.
"The patrol completed and the aircraft returned to base." Mr Wallace added.
Watch: UK sending world's most advanced air defence missile to support Ukraine.
He added: "In light of this potentially dangerous engagement, I have communicated my concerns directly to my Russian counterpart, Defence Minister (Sergei) Shoigu, and the chief of defence staff in Moscow.
"In my letter I made clear the aircraft was unarmed, in international airspace, and following a pre-notified flight path.
"I felt it was prudent to suspend these patrols until a response was received by the Russian state.
"The reply by the Russian minister of defence on October 10 stated they have conducted an investigation into the circumstances of the incident and stated it was a technical malfunction of the SU-27 fighter.
"They also acknowledge that the incident took place in international airspace."
Concluding his report on the incident, the Cabinet minister said: "The UK Ministry of Defence has shared this information with allies and, after consultation, I have restarted routine patrols, but this time escorted by fighter aircraft.
"Everything we do is considered and calibrated with regard to ongoing conflict in the region and in accordance with international law.
Watch: Russia's conscripts will return to families 'in a body bag', expert says.
"We welcome Russia's acknowledgement this was in international airspace, and the UK has conducted regular sorties with the RAF Rivet Joint in international airspace over the Black Sea since 2019 and we will continue to do so."
Mr Wallace suggested the Black Sea incident shows the Russian military are "not beyond making the wrong calculation or indeed deciding that the rules don't apply to them".
He also asked the public to have faith in the Government's support for Ukraine, adding: "I ask them to have faith in us, and indeed all of us in this chamber, that we do work this very detailed response to try and make sure we walk that sometimes tightrope and make sure it is in the right place to do it."
Shadow defence minister Luke Pollard thanked the Defence Secretary, who is also MP for Wyre and Preston North in Lancashire, for his "calmness and professionalism" amid "much Government chaos".
The Labour MP described the Russian fighter jet incident as "serious" and welcomed the restarting of RAF flights. | <urn:uuid:f246d96b-3aeb-479a-8130-56e7f653f7e3> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://www.forces.net/russia/russian-fighter-jet-released-missile-vicinity-raf-aircraft-over-black-sea-wallace-says | 2023-10-04T20:50:47Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233511406.34/warc/CC-MAIN-20231004184208-20231004214208-00698.warc.gz | en | 0.970827 | 743 |

Violations of Students’ Rights in Mandalay, Myanmar
There are currently more than 180 political prisoners in Myanmar, and since 2015, the government released more than 740. None of the former political prisioners received effective remedies.
This report documents a representative case of violations and abuses against student activists, including restrictions on their rights to freedom of expression and peaceful assembly and right to be free from torture.
The students featured in this report are members of the All Burma Federation of Student Unions, an historic Myanmar student activist organization. They spent three months in prison for holding a peaceful protest. While in prison, authorities beat them.
Based on a 12-month investigation into the arrests of the students, “Our Demands are for All Students”: Violations of Students’ Rights in Mandalay, Myanmar details the context in which the protests occurred, providing an overview of the events leading up to the arrests and an extensive legal analysis of the law used to convict the students, the Peaceful Assembly and Peaceful Procession Law. The report offers detailed recommendations to the government of Myanmar and Yadanabon University regarding how to respect students’ human rights to freedom of expression and peaceful assembly. | <urn:uuid:1872922b-1593-46a6-a60e-c30bb7c3ddf7> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://www.fortifyrights.org/mya-inv-rep-2020-04-23/ | 2023-10-04T19:16:31Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233511406.34/warc/CC-MAIN-20231004184208-20231004214208-00698.warc.gz | en | 0.94707 | 246 |
PHILADELPHIA - The parents of a local woman, who lost her life to heroin, want investigators to take another look at their daughter's passing.
Amanda Carter's life was over much too soon and, as FOX 29'sJeff Cole reports, her family has serious questions as they continue to live in a nightmare.
Dawn and Jim Carter live with the kind of searing pain only parents know - pain that entered their lives early on a February morning.
"I open up the door, and there's three policemen there," Dawn Carter said. "They ask to come in, and they asked me to sit down. And they say, 'I'm sorry to inform you that your daughter, Amanda Carter, has passed away this morning.'"
Mandy, as she was known, was 27 years old when she died. Her body was found in her third-floor Bustleton Avenue apartment, where her clothes were laid out for the next day's work.
Jim Carter called his daughter a "smart kid, bright kid, energetic kid."
She had a degree in biomedical engineering from Catholic University in Washington, D.C., and was working at an area pharmaceutical firm.
"It was a shock, I mean, a shock because she was doing so well for the last like six years," Dawn Carter said.
What killed Mandy Carter? According to the medical examiner, it was drug Intoxication. The drug in this case? Heroin.
Lt. Dennis Rosenbaum's Northeast Detectives investigated the death.
"The Medical Examiner's Office said it was an overdose, which is not uncommon in Philadelphia. And, unfortunately, we see a great deal of them," he said.
Carter's parents admit their daughter was drug-addicted several years ago, the result of narcotics taken for an injury and being bipolar. But they believed she had kicked her habit in rehab and showed every sign of staying clean. They want to know much more about the man she was with that night.
We recorded video of him arriving at the Philadelphia home where he's living. We're not naming or showing him because police have not charged him with anything.
The 33-year-old has a troubled past. According to court records, he pleaded guilty in 2009 to criminal charges, including DUI and causing a serious accident while "not properly licensed."
He served time, and Montgomery County Adult Probation says he's under supervision until 2017.
Duane Little, a private investigator who is probing Mandy Carter's death for her parents, said, "I think she may have made a bad decision the night that she entertained a young gentleman in her apartment."
According to investigative records, the man not only admitted to using heroin with Carter, he told investigators he tossed the evidence.
The police incident report reveals he stayed with Carter that night and "they both used heroin at 9:30 p.m."
He said: "at 5:30 A.M. he went back into (the) bedroom and could not wake her up he called 9-1-1 at 5:53 a.m."
That's 23 minutes later.
She was pronounced dead at 6:10 a.m.
The man told the medical examiner he and Carter "used heroin and had sex" and "admits he flushed the heroin packets down the toilet" and "discarded the syringes."
He was not arrested for heroin use.
Lt. Rosenbaum says just too many people use: "Unfortunately, in this day and age, when a lot of people are using drugs, you know, arresting them is not an option."
Nor was he locked up for destroying the packets and syringes.
"He took the packets and the syringe and flushed them down the toilet. Is that a criminal offense?" Cole asked.
"No, not really. I mean, he says he does it before he finds her deceased," Rosenbaum said. "If he had did it after, it might be, you know, an issue."
The M.E.'s report makes no mention of when the man tossed the material.
The man refused our repeated requests for an interview. In a text, he wrote, "I respectfully request that you do not contact me anymore."
The Carters believe police failed their daughter.
"In my opinion, the police actually did nothing," Jim Carter said. "It's another drug addict. We're gonna rubber-stamp it and be on our way."
Cole asked, "You think the cops walked in, saw your daughter's dead body and said, 'This is a heroin addict, she overdosed. It's done?'"
"It's done, absolutely," Jim Carter said.
Rosenbaum argues the cops took a hard look.
"We did send a detective, and a very capable one at that. And he investigated it and, along with the M.E., they determined that it was a heroin overdose."
Jim Carter says he found a man's jacket in his daughter's closet days after she died. It had parts of a syringe in the pocket.
"It was not my daughter's, and it was a man's jacket. The police never looked," he said.
Rosenbaum says police were not aware of it.
The 33-year-told the private investigator it wasn't his.
And the parents don't believe their daughter could have injected herself in her left arm, where the M.E. found needle marks when Carter was left-arm-dominant.
The private Investigator, Little, said, "It doesn't add up, that the young lady, if she did the heroin in fact, injected herself in her dominant hand not only once but twice."
A spokesperson for the M.E. said this had no impact on the case but added that if a crime is suspected it should be reported to the police.
Police, however, have closed the case, and the M.E. found "No apparent evidence of foul play."
And there's one more thing. Remember, Montgomery County Adult Probation says the man in the apartment with Carter is on supervision for another two years. He's being supervised out of the Philadelphia office.
Montgomery County told FOX 29 Investigates it has no record of being notified that he had admitted to using heroin with Mandy Carter in February - a possible violation of his supervision that could send him back to jail.
Rosenbaum says he doesn't know if his detective notified adult probation but says the agent supervising the man should have been able to detect drug use in random urine tests.
Jim Carter had this response: "If … Philadelphia police had taken two minutes to run his information, I would assume that he'd be in violation of his probation for being in an area where there were drugs."
Dawn Carter added, "I want a case to be opened to look into this, you know, and to look at all the facts and all the discrepancies."
Private Facebook posts between Mandy Carter and that man appear to show them using heroin several years ago. Carter writes that she stopped breathing. He responds that he watched her through the night. Her family says that was before rehab, Cole reported. | <urn:uuid:9e7f24d9-608e-472b-b8d6-e9ea6fd63357> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://www.fox29.com/news/fox-29-investigates-familys-questions-about-daughters-heroin-death | 2023-10-04T20:14:17Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233511406.34/warc/CC-MAIN-20231004184208-20231004214208-00698.warc.gz | en | 0.98687 | 1,490 |

A Florida veteran is making a strong recovery after contracting flesh-eating bacteria in his leg last month while on his daily walk on the beach.
Roy Haase, 93, typically starts every morning at Delanor-Wiggins Pass State Park, where he watches the sunrise and says his prayers at Wiggins Pass, according to a Facebook post by Robb Stan, Haase’s close friend.
The WWII and Korean War Navy veteran has been using crutches to navigate the sand lately, and, according to Stan, a screw from one of the crutches left a small puncture wound on his left knee near the end of July. Haase allegedly placed a band aid on the wound and continued with his morning swim in the Gulf of Mexico for the following two weeks.
“Well, almost overnight, things took a horrible turn,” according to Stan’s Southwest Florida Television Facebook post.
Stan said that he got a call from a park ranger on Aug. 2 reporting that Haase had been found passed out on the beach and was being transported to a local hospital.
“After spending the night in the ER and a couple days in the hospital, it was determined that Roy came in contact with fresh (sic) eating bacteria, vibrio vulnificus,” Stan posted. “The doctor said that Roy was in septic shock, and if he had laid there much longer he might have died.”
Virbriosis causes an estimated 80,000 illnesses and 100 deaths in the U.S. each year. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), in addition to exposing a wound to warm sweater, patients may contract the infection by eating raw or undercooked seafood. Preventative measures include washing hands thoroughly after handling raw seafood and staying out of brackish or salt water if you have open wounds.
Haase, author of “How I Lived Healthy & Happy to be…almost…100,” did not lose any limbs in the harrowing ordeal, but was left with a severe wound and lost tissue in his left leg. He has been regaining strength at Solaris Healthcare Imperial, where they continue to monitor his wound.
“Roy’s leg is getting better every day,” Stan posted on Sept. 13. “A month ago this was a very deep, open wound. You could see bone and tendons. Roy is fortunate to still have his leg. Flesh-eating bacteria is not a joke. Most people aren’t even aware of it. Take the time to educate yourself about vibrio vlunificus.”
Stan shared that Haase has been receiving get-well cards from supporters at:

SAN JUAN, Puerto Rico – Authorities in the U.S. territory of Puerto Rico say the number of deaths tied to Hurricane Maria has increased to 54 with three new deaths reported.
Public Affairs Secretary Ramon Rosario said Wednesday that two of the deaths were accidents involving trees and the third was a person who committed suicide after losing their job.
The deaths occurred in the municipalities of Vega Baja, San Sebastian and San Lorenzo.
Hurricane Maria hit Puerto Rico on Sept. 20 as a Category 4 storm with winds of up to 154 mph (248 kph). It wiped out crops, damaged or destroyed 230,000 homes and left the entire island without power.
Puerto Rico's power company is producing nearly 40 percent of its normal output, and roughly 20 percent of customers are still without water. | <urn:uuid:550ee90c-309a-4d71-b9c5-a89cd52659c6> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://www.foxnews.com/world/hurricane-death-toll-in-puerto-rico-increases-to-54 | 2023-10-04T21:17:34Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233511406.34/warc/CC-MAIN-20231004184208-20231004214208-00698.warc.gz | en | 0.96096 | 166 |
The Problem: We wanted to humanize our team during COVID-19 with story driven content of our lives, experiences, and passions to drive sales and recruitment.
The Solution: We decided to have a six-hour film day with our COVID-19 Safety Department where we take new headshots, conduct video interviews and capture fun video clips!
– New Headshots for the website & email signatures– Video Interviews to be cut down into 60-second pieces of content
– Filmed fun and quirky footage of us dancing and having fun
One of our mottos is: “People work with fun people.” So why not show us having fun?
This will help us close sales faster because they feel connected to our brand, help us recruit better people that fit our culture, and help us beat the other (Not so fun…) video production teams out there. A CareerBuilder survey has found that job postings with videos have a 34% greater application rate – what could that do for your franchise or business? A LOT!

We are off to the seaside on Sunday, as we take a trip to the Vitality Stadium.
Bucket And Spade
Chelsea may have spent an obscene amount of money under owner Todd Boehly, whether he is spending it wisely can be argued.
Splash The Cash
With Gary O’Neil being sent packing in the summer, it is all change at the Vitality Stadium. Change that came with the appointment of Andoni Iraola as manager and with the Spaniard yet to oversee a Premier League win for his new employers, his arrival has been a baptism of fire.
Then again, you could also say the same about Chelsea and their installation of Mauricio Pochettino as manager. The Argentine is the latest high-profile coach to walk through the Stamford Bridge revolving door and so have plenty of new playing personnel.
Chelsea’s largesse is as mighty as it is laughable, as owner Todd Boehly does his best to purchase every player to have kicked a football and because of the American’s desire to splash the cash, the pressure is heaped on Pochettino’s shoulders from the start.
Especially as the Blues have only won one league game under the former Tottenham manager. Victory over Luton has been the only high point, defeats to both West Ham and Nottingham Forest must be considered closer to the nadir.
Before the international break, Chelsea opened their Stamford Bridge doors to Steve Cooper’s men and although the Blues created plenty of chances throughout, they lacked the cutting edge to chop Forest down.
A miss from Nicholas Jackson will be one for the end of season blooper reel but on the other hand, Anthony Elanga’s winning goal for the visitors is one that will be hard to erase by Chelsea’s unsettled fanbase.
At the same time Chelsea themselves need to put the first four weeks of the Premier League season behind them. It is clear that Pochettino still does not know his best 11 or even 20 players and therefore, you do not know which variant of the Blues will turn up.
On one hand, it could be the team that looked impressive if not rough around the edges at home to Liverpool on the opening weekend. On the other, they could just as easily mimic the performances that have led to their two league defeats thus far.
Bournemouth will be hoping that the latter of the two turn up on Sunday and especially as manager Iraola will want three points to match the level of performances that the Cherries have put in to date. Anything less and things could start to get rather sour on the South Coast.
With that in mind, our latest bet builder is now up for grabs, and it looks like this:
- Nicholas Jackson to score anytime
- Match result will be Chelsea
- Under 3 total goals
For my latest bet builder offering, I am focusing on the man who missed an absolute sitter before the international break and what better way to absolve your sins, than by netting a goal against Bournemouth on Sunday.
A goal that comes courtesy of Nicholas Jackson and a goal that also helps Chelsea to victory. To make things interesting I have backed under three total goals, which means it has to be a 1-0 or 2-0 away win. If this combination of factors all mesh into a winner, this one is priced at a tasty 10/1. | <urn:uuid:07b3b6a2-d422-4df3-b124-8d44bcb5b017> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://www.freebets.com/tips/football/bournemouth-vs-chelsea-bet-builder-preview/ | 2023-10-04T19:53:16Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233511406.34/warc/CC-MAIN-20231004184208-20231004214208-00698.warc.gz | en | 0.967688 | 698 |
Cheltenham stages a mammoth eight-race card on Friday afternoon, including the re-arranged Fitzdares Club Loves The Peterborough Chase at 1.50pm, following the abandonment of Huntingdon last Sunday.
ITV4 cameras will show the action from the last five races on the card, three of which we will provide Horse Racing tips, previews and predictions for, starting with the Grade 2 Peterborough Chase. Stamina is the name of the game in the 3m 2f Unibet Handicap Chase at 2.25pm, as is the 3m 6f Glenfarclas Cross Country Handicap Chase at 3.00pm. We will supply Horse Racing tips for both of these races.
Our Tip for the 1.50pm at Cheltenham:
Eight runners and an open renewal of this Grade 2 contest which has been transferred to Prestbury Park following the abandonment of last Sunday’s meeting at Huntingdon. Seven Barrows trainer Nicky Henderson is double-handed, courtesy of Top Notch and Mister Fisher.
The former has been a grand servant for Henderson, winning nine of his 15 starts over fences, but the winner of this race 12 months ago will turn 10 in less than a month and may be vulnerable against some unexposed younger rivals. One such horse being stablemate Mister Fisher.
The six-year-old looked destined for the top after winning novice chases at Cheltenham and Doncaster last season, before finishing a creditable fourth behind Samcro in the Marsh Novices’ Chase at the festival, on ground that didn’t really suit the son of Jeremy. However, the mount of Nico de Boinville will have to jump better than was the case when pulling-up in the Paddy Power Gold Cup on his reappearance.
Clondaw Castle, Fanion D’Estruval, Glen Forsa and Kalashnikov are all capable of playing a part on their best form. The selection, however, is the Paul Nicholls-trained Dolos.
Harry Cobden’s mount ran well on his seasonal reappearance when trying to give winner Rouge Vif 5lb on the course, staying on to finish a respectable fourth under a big weight. The seven-year-old, at 160, is the highest rated runner in the race and looks sure to go well in an open contest.
Our Tip for the 2.25pm at Cheltenham:
Despite only seven runners for this 3m 2f handicap chase, there is unlikely to be any hanging around with the likes of Black Corton, Storm Control and Commodore in the race. A situation which could set things up nicely for Irish challenger Court Maid.
Thomas Mullins’ seven-year-old mare is three from four over fences, her most recent victory coming in a 20-runner handicap at Fairyhouse, which the mount of David Mullins won by a long-looking 13 lengths. Running off a mark of 148, Court Maid is due to go up another 4lb in the future and can make it four from five over fences in a race that should suit.
Our Tip for the 3.00pm at Cheltenham:
The defection of the two horses at the top of the weights – Easysland and Potters Corner – has been a godsend for the connections of De Forgotten One, who would have been a full stone and a half out of the handicap had it not been for trainer David Cottin taking issue with the weight allocated to last season’s Cheltenham Festival winner Easysland.
With the race now having a much more open look to it, Jessica Harrington’s challenger Neverushacon is expected to go off favourite following his victory last month in a similar race at Punchestown. Step Back, Kingswell Theatre and Beau Du Brizais will all have their supporters but at the bottom of the weights, the Richard Hobson-trained De Forgotten One certainly takes the eye.
A neck winner at Stratford last October in receipt of 2lb from Lord Du Mesnil (now rated some 35lb higher) when in the care of Tim Vaughan. The Malinas gelding has run twice since joining Hobson, both races coming in France, the latest being a six length victory at Compiegne.
With jockey Felix De Giles in the saddle, who has few peers in this discipline, De Forgotten One can prove the each-way value of the race.

Lien Stripping in Chapter 13 Bankruptcy
Section 506(a) of the Bankruptcy Code separates the debtor’s obligations into two general categories or “claims”: secured claims and unsecured claims. Secured claims are obligations in which payment is guaranteed (or “backed” or “secured” or “collateralized”) by property. Section 506(a)(1) provides that a secured creditor’s claim is “a secured claim to the extent of the value of such creditor’s interest in the estate’s interest in such property . . . and is an unsecured claim to the extent that the value of such creditor’s interest . . . is less than the amount of such allowed claim.” Consequently, when the value of the property is less than the amount of the secured claim, Section 506(a) allows the obligation to be divided into a secured claim and an unsecured claim.
For instance, suppose the debtor finances a car for $40,000. It’s commonly said that a car depreciates the minute it drives off the lot, so let’s say the car is now worth $35,000 and no payment has been made. In bankruptcy, this car loan would have a secured claim of $35,000 (the value of the collateral) and an unsecured claim of $5,000.
The most notable prohibition against reducing the amount owed on a secured obligation is found in Section 1322(b). This provision, often called the “anti-modification provision,” prohibits a Chapter 13 debtor from modifying the rights of a secured claim when the claim is secured only by the debtor’s principal residence. The U.S. Supreme Court in the case of Nobelman v. American Savings Bank, 508 U.S. 324 (1993), decided that 1322(b) means that a claim against the debtor’s primary residence cannot be bifurcated into secured and unsecured claims. However, most bankruptcy courts have distinguished the ruling in Nobleman to allow a junior mortgage to be stripped away if the value of the senior claims are more than the value of the debtor’s home.
To understand how lien stripping works, consider the following “negative equity” example of a debtor’s home:
Value of home: $330,000
First mortgage: $360,000
Second mortgage: $40,000
Amount of equity -$70,000
Most courts allow the $40,000 second mortgage to be stripped off and reclassified as an unsecured debt because the amount owed on the first mortgage is more than the value of the home. In other words, the second mortgage is not actually secured by anything because the amount owed on the first mortgage “eats up” all of the home’s equity. There is no equity left to secure the second mortgage. If the second mortgage was partially secured, even by one dollar, the second mortgage could not be lien stripped according to Nobelman. | <urn:uuid:20012b25-d8c4-4969-892d-74afaff5a0a3> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://www.freedomlegalteam.com/lien-stripping-in-chapter-13-bankruptcy/ | 2023-10-04T20:40:56Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233511406.34/warc/CC-MAIN-20231004184208-20231004214208-00698.warc.gz | en | 0.946008 | 652 |

We all know that tackling high school comes with a variety of unique challenges, both for our students and for parents. One very obvious challenge being the dawn of independence. During these four years, our kids are beginning to navigate what it means to be independent not only in finding their own voices and individuality, but also in understanding what it means to be an adult. In fact, high school is a critical precursor to the more dramatic shift into adulthood they will inevitably enter during college or other post-high school endeavors. And while the essence of independence calls for… well… independence, the steps needed to successfully transition our budding adults into these newer and bigger responsibilities will, without a doubt, require strategic and supportive guidance from their parents.
That said, the line between guiding our kids and giving them the space and respect to navigate these waters independently can be particularly delicate. And while it feels counter-intuitive to step back when we see our kids struggling, it is incredibly important to also allow them the space and opportunities to make these mistakes in order to grow and become stronger because of them.
As you – and your young adult – are wading the waters of independence, here are four critical ways you can help support them and guide them along:
1. Ask what they need.
Not all kids need the same kind of support. This is true for so many facets of being a living and breathing human, because we are all unique! In fact, each of our teenagers will likely be at different stages of the independence process at different times and therefore require different guidance. Having open and honest communication with your child is critical to better understanding what they need and want and to coming up with solutions together as to how you can better support them. Try to be open-minded and open-hearted about where your kid is coming from, and approach these conversations without judgement. You’ll likely receive a more positive and willing response in return.
2. Teach them how to set goals.
Success and independence are never achieved in one fell swoop. In fact, nothing about life works that way. While growth isn’t necessarily a linear process, it certainly comes in bite-size chunks which then are compiled into something bigger and greater than the sum of its parts. The sooner our kids understand the irrefutable truth of tackling life in steps and pieces, the sooner they will be able to successfully achieve their goals. Sit down with your teenager and have a candid conversation about the goals they have for themselves. Then work together to break those goals down into achievable steps that they can tackle monthly, weekly and daily to get them closer to their dreams. Practice these tactics with them in other areas of their life so that they learn how to problem solve on their own and create their own processes for achieving what they want in the future.
3. Set realistic expectations.
When we talk about expectations, we mean having reasonably high expectations. We know
you want your kid to aim for the stars (because we know they are capable), but the best way to do that is to make sure that your expectations of them are also ones they can reach. Setting high (and achievable) expectations means letting your kid know (and reminding them regularly) that you have faith in who they are and what they can do. Self-confidence is built upon a strong family foundation of support and belief. And while we would love for our kids to be straight-A students or get into Harvard, we must also understand that success is achieved in tangible, realistic steps. Aiming too high can result in irreparable self-doubt that could then lead to discouragement or lack of motivation. Certainly, let your child know when you think they can do or be better, but support their individual process in getting there too.
4. Focus on process not the result.
Keeping all of the points above in mind, we have to remember that mistakes are
part of the independence and growth process. Failure is too. In fact, when our kids don’t achieve their goals right away, it will help them to better appreciate their successes when they are met and to strive to be better each and every time the set out with a goal. As a parent, it’s vital that we continue to encourage them forward even when they falter. Our kids are bound to achieve more when they know wholeheartedly that their parents and families are a constant support system no matter what. | <urn:uuid:7a24343e-c2a6-4d63-8e1f-3b37550ac025> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://www.futurefocused.com/post/how-to-best-support-your-student-while-respecting-their-independence | 2023-10-04T20:16:15Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233511406.34/warc/CC-MAIN-20231004184208-20231004214208-00698.warc.gz | en | 0.965249 | 896 |
FV Hospital implements the QRS®-PelviCenter system for the first time in Vietnam to support the treatment of pelvic floor disorders using non-invasive, gentle, and comfortable methods.
The QRS®-PelviCenter system uses quantum resonance stimulation to target and restore the function of the pelvic floor muscles. It is beneficial to address disorders such as urinary incontinence, foecal incontinence, vaginal laxity, cystocele, rectocele, and lower back pain in women, especially postpartum mothers and older individuals. Additionally, this system can also be helpful for men dealing with erectile dysfunction.
Pelvic floor dysfunction is a common and sensitive issue among women.
Pelvic floor dysfunction occurs when the muscles and connective tissues in the pelvic floor weaken or age, leading to loss of support for the pelvic organs in their original positions. This condition is prevalent in women during and after pregnancy.
According to statistics from the Pelvic Floor Society in Ho Chi Minh City, around 50 per cent of women over the age of 40 experience pelvic floor dysfunction with symptoms of urinary incontinence. Approximately 40 per cent of women over the age of 50 suffer from pelvic floor dysfunction, presenting symptoms like uterine prolapse, cystocele, and rectocele.
FV Obstetrics & Gynaecology Department–Breast Care Clinic, FV Hospital
In response to the essential need for treatment of pelvic floor-related disorders, FV Hospital combines experts from the Obstetrics & Gynaecology, Urology & Andrology, and Physiotherapy & Rehabilitation departments to develop comprehensive pelvic care services. Notably, FV Hospital has invested in the QRS®-PelviCenter system to support the treatment of common pelvic floor disorders such as urinary incontinence, sexual dysfunction, foecal incontinence, erectile dysfunction, and back pain. This advanced medical device is an automated tool that trains and exercises pelvic floor muscles through advanced magnetic stimulation, and is widely used in the United States and Europe, offering non-invasive, gentle, and comfortable treatment for pelvic floor disorders. FV Hospital is a pioneering healthcare facility implementing QRS®-PelviCenter in Vietnam.
Treatment of pelvic floor dysfunction using a non-invasive method
QRS®-PelviCenter has a structure resembling a chair positioned over a magnetic system. The strong, uniform magnetic field can deeply penetrate the pelvic area, stimulating the surrounding nerves and training related muscles.
By modulating the activity of peripheral nerves, the QRS®-PelviCenter system is capable of reducing pain symptoms, promoting nerve healing, and enhancing motor function.
Patient uses the QRS®-PelviCenter system at FV Hospital
QRS®-PelviCenter is indicated for pelvic floor muscle training for common pelvic floor dysfunctions, such as:
- Urinary incontinence: Often seen in older women, obese individuals, after childbirth, or during menopause.
- Overactive bladder: Caused by abnormal activity of the nerves and muscles of the bladder, leading to frequent contractions and resulting in nocturia and urgency in urination.
- Sexual dysfunction: Men with weak pelvic floor muscles may experience erectile dysfunction, premature ejaculation, and decreased ejaculatory force. Women may experience weakened vaginal muscles and decreased blood flow to the genital area.
- Lower back pain: Pelvic floor dysfunction affects the spinal nerves and inadequate support to the upper body, leading to back pain.

When patients come to FV Hospital to receive treatment for pelvic floor dysfunctions, doctors will develop individual treatment protocols based on the type and severity of the condition. Depending on the severity of the dysfunction and the patient’s response, QRS®-PelviCenter may be recommended for a specific duration and may be combined with other approaches such as internal medicine or physical therapy.

“Meticulously tailored training programmes are required for each pelvic floor dysfunction, typically involving several sessions, each lasting around 20 minutes, at intervals of two to three weeks. QRS®-PelviCenter is a novel advanced method to treat various pelvic floor dysfunctions that patients can consider. The outstanding advantages are that it’s non-invasive, drug-free, doesn’t incur side effects, and is highly effective. Patients can comfortably sit on the chair during the treatment without experiencing any pain or discomfort,” shares Vo Trieu Dat, MD, MSc.
Vu Truong Son, MD, MSc, Deputy Medical Director of FV Hospital, states that FV’s leadership began considering purchasing the machine when Dr Gilles Blache, Head of the Obstetrics & Gynaecology Department–Breast Care Clinic, obsered his colleagues in France applying the QRS®-PelviCenter system and the numerous benefits it offered patients. Dr Blache proposed that FV invest in this system to serve patients in his department. While researching the system, they realised its potential benefits for other specialties as well. Thus, FV Hospital decided to establish a Pelvic Care Centre to serve a diverse range of patients facing pelvic floor issues.
“Vietnamese women who have given birth naturally often lack the opportunity to engage in immediate rehabilitation exercises, thus carrying the burden of pelvic floor-related injuries. Additionally, Vietnam’s population is entering the aging stage. The characteristic of the elderly, both men and women, is the aging of the pelvic floor, leading to reduced quality of life and diminished self-confidence in social interactions, freedom of movement, and enjoyment of their golden years. Instead of silently enduring ‘difficult to discuss’ issues, with access to the QRS®-PelviCenter system at FV, we hope to help them improve their quality of life,” emphasises Dr Vu Truong Son.
The newly operated QRS®-PelviCenter system has been highly appreciated by patients for its effectiveness and simplicity in treating pelvic floor-related conditions. To celebrate the launch of the first QRS®-PelviCenter system in Vietnam, FV Hospital is offering a 20 per cent discount on all pelvic floor disorder treatment packages using QRS®-PelviCenter from now until August 31, 2023. For more information on the treatment of pelvic floor disorders, please contact FV Hospital at: (028) 54 11 33 33, ext. 6000.

During the public seminar “Sexual and reproductive healthcare and modern methods in treatment of gynaecological disorders” at Vung Tau city, Vo Trieu Dat, MD, MSc, Deputy Head of the Obstetrics & Gynaecology—Breast Care Clinic at FV Hospital, shared an overview of pelvic floor training methods. This information received considerable interest from over 300 women in attendance, particularly older women.

In the previous blog post, 3 Balance Tests for the Active Adult, we talked about how you don’t have to be elderly or someone who is generally unsteady to work on your balance.
If you scored well on the tests, good for you! But you should still include balance exercises into your fitness routine.
If you didn’t do well on the tests, consider coming to see us in the office or try adding 2-3 balance exercises into your routine.
Choosing the Best Balance Exercises for You
Include static exercises – those meant to be held without much movement – and dynamic ones – those which involve movement.
Choose the exercises that you can perform for at least 5-10 seconds without losing your balance. It’ll only frustrate you if you have no success.
Vary your exercises periodically so that you aren’t always doing the same ones.
Stand in a corner (facing out). Add a chair in front of you for added safety. For dynamic balance exercises, you might use the length of a kitchen countertop or in a hallway where you can touch either wall.
Static Standing Exercises
Use the following groups to create combinations that are right for you.
Start by picking a foot position in Group 1 (see below) and spend one minute practicing. Keep track of the longest time you can hold.
Then to increase or vary the challenge, add an option from Groups 2-3.
Group 1: Foot position
Normal to wide stance.
Narrow stance to feet together.
One foot ahead of the other by 2 inches, or 4 inches, or in full heel-toe position. Vary which foot is forward.
Stand on one foot. Practice on each foot.
Yoga positions: single or two-footed.
Group 2: Vision variations
Eyes open, focusing on a target in front of you.
Reading a book or the news scroll on the bottom of your TV screen.
Keep your head still but move your eyes left, right, up, and down to different targets in front of you.
Group 3: Surfaces
Stand on a soft surface. The thicker the cushion, the greater the challenge. Options include:
Yoga mat or thick carpeting
Thick pillow or couch cushion
Bonus Challenge: Hold the static position while introducing a small amount of movement, such as turning your head, raising an arm, or moving a lifted leg.
Let’s Put Together a Few Examples:
Comfortable two-footed stance (Group 1) with eyes open (Group 2) on a pillow (Group 3).
Feet together (Group 1) on a hard floor (Group 3) with eyes closed (Group 2).
Do you have the idea now? Here are more:
One foot ahead of the other by half of your foot, on thick carpeting, reading the news scroll on TV
Stand on one foot on hard floor while turning your head left and right, eyes open.
Stand on a balance dome at the gym while performing dumbbell curls.
Warrior 1 pose on a yoga mat
Don’t be surprised how difficult these can be, so find a combination that works for you. Be safe!
Dynamic Balance Activities
Moving while balancing is how we function in real life, so let’s include balance tasks in action:
Slow motion walk: Exaggerate each motion. Can you take 5 full seconds to complete a step? How about 10?
Squats or similar variation. Remember these from our previous post?
Gym exercises such as lunges, single-leg deadlifts, squats, and calf raises.
Vinyasa yoga, where you continuously flow from one posture to the next.
Tai Chi, an ancient Chinese art form that involves continuous movements as well.
Did you find a static and a dynamic exercise you can include in your daily routine or gym workout?
Need some ideas or more direct guidance for your balance? The physical therapists at FYZICAL – Forest Grove can help you with that.

“The right to vote embraces not only a voter’s access to the ballot, but also his access to alternative viewpoints and positions presented on the ballot.”
We all may agree with the court ruling quoted above, but the fact is we live in a political and legal world dominated by two "major" parties which appear to be doing all they can to make it more difficult to secure the right to vote. The Constitution Party of Georgia is involved in a legal fight for your full right to vote, rights that have already been won in Tennessee and other states.
Politicians and bureaucrats, most of whom are members of said parties, don’t want to share or lose their power. And judges, beholden primarily to those parties, can and do at times block that right, often simply by dragging their feet.
In Georgia and Tennessee, the Constitution and Green parties joined forces to challenge those states’ ballot access laws. But both are hampered by the very people who are required by law to protect our rights – elected officials, bureaucrats and judges.
Georgia has what some consider the toughest ballot access laws in the U.S. To gain ballot access, the Constitution Party – and all other political parties without ballot access in Georgia – must gather the signatures of at least 1% of all registered voters in the state. That’s more than 50,000 signatures for the Presidential ballot. The percentages required for other races are even more restrictive.
Political parties seeking ballot access in Georgia must also pay all of the expenses related to gathering those signatures and getting their candidates on the ballot. On the other hand, taxpayers foot the bill for all elections involving Democrat and Republican candidates, whether or not they are members of those parties. That includes primaries, the general election and any necessary run-offs.
The Constitution Party of Georgia (CPGA) sued the State and its officials to gain ballot access and get Constitution Party of the United States (CP) Presidential Nominee Virgil Goode on the ballot for the November 2012 election. Among other issues, the CPGA argued the number of petition signatures the State requires to get a political party’s candidates on the ballot is unconstitutionally high.
Mike Raffuaf, one of the attorneys handling the CPGA case said, “There’s a U.S. Supreme Court decision that said the outer limits [of the required number of petition signatures] were 1% of the actual voters. Georgia requires more than those outer limits. It requires 1% of registered voters, not 1% of actual voters.”
Federal District Judge Richard Story ruled against the CPGA, but on grounds which ignored the issues actually raised in the lawsuit as well as recent court rulings in our favor which have been issued in other states. CPGA attorneys immediately filed a motion to reconsider and are awaiting the court’s decision on that motion. Unfortunately, the judge does not have to adhere to a specific
timetable and could deny the CPGA access to the November ballot in Georgia simply by not issuing a timely ruling. And time is critical. Attorney Mike Raffuaf said, “The Presidential ballot locks up after the Democratic Convention [September 3-6, 2012] … so at least by then we’d need a ruling.”
The Constitution Party of Tennessee (CPTN) won its lawsuit, but discovered its fight was far from over. Darrell Castle, national Vice- Chairman of the CP and one of the attorneys representing the CPTN said, “It’s always been relatively easy to qualify as a candidate in Tennessee, but not as a party.” Until now, unless a candidate was
Democrat or Republican, no party affiliation was listed next to their name, effectively branding them an independent.
Castle said the judge ordered the Tennessee Legislature to change the law, but said “the changes made it worse.” So the CPTN sued again. This time, Castle said, the “judge was put off by what the Legislature did … and told the Legislature specifically what he wanted done,” ordering the state to list the party affiliation of each candidate on its ballot.
The State appealed and asked for a stay of the district court’s order. While the federal appeals court has not ruled on the lawsuit itself, it has ordered Tennessee election officials to comply with the lower court order and list party affiliations next to candidates’ names.
Despite that, Tennessee Coordinator of Elections Mark Goins said he will not comply with the order until required to by state law, which will be at the end of August. Until then, candidates who have qualified to run but who don’t belong to one of the “major” parties will still not
have a party affiliation listed next to their name. It also means those candidates will not be invited to candidate forums or be asked to fill out the questionnaires typically sent to candidates by activist organizations, putting them at a disadvantage at election time.
Castle said they are preparing for various scenarios and “will consider suing again if they refuse [to comply with the court’s order]. The appellate judge was clear that the lower court’s order is in force until the appeal is ruled on.”
“One of the other things I’ve learned from this,” Castle said, “is how [the other political parties] will fight to keep any dissenting views from being heard.”
Restoring the Republic is one of the basic tenets of the Constitution Party of Georgia. Such a Restoration cannot take place unless politicians, bureaucrats and the courts themselves respect not only the rule of law but the spirit of the law. That will happen only when “We the People” demand it.
Legal actions are expensive and Georgia law requires taxpayers to pay to secure their own right to vote. Donations may be made
directly to the Constitution Party of Georgia or to VOTER-GA which is assisting the CPGA in its lawsuit. VOTER-GA donations are tax deductible and you may specify that your donation be used only for
CPGA legal fees. | <urn:uuid:df7ff7d8-c474-4506-bf89-2b92ddc9b0b2> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://www.gaconstitutionparty.org/cpga_fights_for_your_full_voting_rights | 2023-10-04T19:00:59Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233511406.34/warc/CC-MAIN-20231004184208-20231004214208-00698.warc.gz | en | 0.96295 | 1,274 |
We’re always on the hunt for the very best offers in the US betting markets – and delving into bonuses offered by individual casinos is a large part of this. So this week, Gambling Guy has been checking out Mohegan Sun.
New players are offered Mohegan Sun New Jersey’s casino bonus of up to $1000, in the form of a 100% cash match. And if you don’t want to spend a cent, you’ll still get $20 worth of play, just for registering!
We all love a freebie from New Jersey online casinos. Anyone signing up for a new casino should take advantage of the betting offers like the latest Tropicana New Jersey casino bonus. Mohegan Sun New Jersey has a casino bonus to the tune of $1000, matching your cash injection up to this value. There are also $20 in credits for those registering without a deposit.
If you’re using the app, enable push notifications. This makes you much less likely to miss out on lightning promos!
Those staking at the top end of this $1000 cash match stand to make big money, and the IRS will want to know about this. We recommend logging your winnings on a spreadsheet, so you can track and declare any winnings that fall over the government’s earning thresholds for tax.
Mohegan Sun New Jersey casino promos come hard and fast, so do keep your eyes on the offer page, as well as your inbox, for extra bonus opportunities!
Double or even quadruple your winnings by betting against the house! You won’t be able to do this on every title, though. Look out for eligible games displaying a glowing ’gamble’ button.
Wagering requirements will vary from game to game, so check them out individually before deciding where to invest your dollars!
Each of Mohegan Sun New Jersey’s casino bonuses must be entered manually. After logging in, you’ll need to type in the bonus code to activate it. If you’re under 21 or are don’t reside in one of the Mohegan Sun legal states, you won’t be able to activate the offer at all.
Absolutely, you can cancel at any time! You only need to contact customer service to cancel your bonus. Do be aware that if you do this before meeting the minimum wagers, you’ll forfeit any winnings achieved via the bonus funds.
Unfortunately not. But you will earn them on any real cash you spend at the casino.
Yes. The cash match offer is geared toward first deposits rather than new sign-ups. So even if you registered years ago, you’d still be entitled as long as you’ve never made a deposit!
If you’re employed by the casino or its subsidiaries—in any capacity—you will not be able to take advantage of Mohegan Sun New Jersey’s casino bonus.
Earn a Stellar point for every $1 wagered on slots, $2 wagered on roulette, and $4 wagered on blackjack & video poker. Points can be redeemed for cash or saved, so you can rise to the five space-themed levels—Aura, Star, Nova, Galaxy, and Eclipse. Each tier comes with an increased value of benefits, including larger deposit limits, event invites, game multipliers, gifts, dinners, and overnight stays in the brand’s land-based casinos!
This generous cash match is ideal for those who liked what they saw in our Mohegan Sun Casino review for USA and wanted to make a hefty first payment. However, the play through requirements are equally hefty, so you’ll have to be willing to take those on board if you want to make money here.
We like that those who prefer to try before they buy (credits) have also been considered. $20 worth of coins is enough to find out whether you like the site, and if you do, you’ll still be eligible for the cash match, having never made a deposit. All of which should be a great introduction to one of the best online casinos in the USA!
There’s always money to be made and money to be lost when gambling. Learning how to win at slots and table games will give you a great head start.
The NJ Division of Gaming Enforcement licenses the brand with backing from Sportech NYX Gaming. Not all platforms are legal, so it’s well worth checking that you’re signing up to a 100% legit casino before providing details or paying any money.
Mohegan Sun New Jersey’s casino app can be downloaded from their website or via your software provider’s store. It has an excellent interface and is very user-friendly.
Like most online casinos in the US, the platform provides a number of ways to contact them, including live chat, telephone, and email.
This depends on whether it suits your gambling needs—something you can ascertain once you’ve read through our Mohegan Sun New Jersey casino review. We also recommend checking out other welcome offers from leading online casinos, before making a final decision.
Players must be 21 years of age or older or reach the minimum age for gambling in their respective state and located in jurisdictions where online gambling is legal. Please play responsibly. Bet with your head, not over it.

Aspects of this post were discussed at greater length during my GDC 2013 localization talk -- watch it here.
Hero Academy, the acclaimed turn-based strategy game for iOS from Robot Entertainment, got a recent update to its collection of playable characters: a squad of Chinese-themed heroes, including a fighting monk, a Taoist healer, and a swordswoman. Called the “Shaolin team”, they draw on traditional character types from China’s martial arts fantasy world, called Jiang Hu — sort of the Chinese version of Middle Earth — which Westerners generally know through movies like Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon and games like BioWare’s Jade Empire. Robot Entertainment is actually based in Texas, but the Shaolin team really did get its start in China, where it’s known as the Jiang Hu team, which my company co-developed with Robot Entertainment for the game's China launch. (Read about the Chinese version on my blog here.) While we first created these assets to make the game more appealing to the China market, we also worked with Robot to globalize these Chinese elements for their world-wide audience. As the mobile gaming market continues to become more global, we’re going to see a lot more international cooperation between game developers, so I think Gamasutra readers might want to get a closer look at how it was done:
Unit Design and Play Balancing Between Two Countries and Cultures
“Yodo1 conceptually designed the Jiang Hu team according to what they thought Chinese players would like,” as Robot Entertainment CEO Patrick Hudson recounted to me recently. We planned out how the team should play and fight based on Chinese legend, and our art team set to work visualizing each unit; their challenge was to make sure these assets fit the existing Hero Academy art style, while also being recognizable by their martial arts character type. After that, Patrick puts it, “Robot then did much of the implementation and balancing against the other teams, so that the Jiang Hu team would feel like the other teams.”
So working in Beijing, we created a team of Chinese heroes with an authentic look and feel, while over in Texas, Robot's developers worked on fitting these units into their existing game. Doing it that way, as Robot Entertainment producer Wally Wachi puts it, “took a lot of the guesswork out of creating a team based on Chinese concepts/themes that could work for both the China and Western markets. This saved the Robot team a good chunk of development time.” (Not to mention money.)
Still, it took some work to translate our original design to the existing gameplay. We were basically transplanting Chinese martial arts legends and Taoist mythology into Hero Academy’s Tolkien-esque world of medieval swords and European sorcery. And sometimes, as we discovered during play testing, the two don’t always fight well together.
“In our initial implementation, the Jiang Hu’s mechanics were really fun and cool but ultimately too powerful,” Wally explains. This mismatch was evident, for instance, when we implemented the Jiang Hu's Shadow unit into general Hero Academy gameplay. Based on Chinese vampire mythology, the Shadow can revive KO'd enemy units in a match to fight on his side as ghosts. Pretty cool, we thought; but that gameplay element played havoc with the overall balance:
“[I]nitially the Shadow unit revived enemy units to his side with full health plus all armor and buffs intact -– basically converting units as-is. Lots of fun for one player, but not for his opponent, as we learned in our internal playtests. So we tuned the Shadow’s conversion ability back by not giving converted units full health and discarding their armor/buffs. This was true for many of the units and spells and we spent a good amount of time modifying/balancing their mechanics.”
So a lot of the balancing of the Shaolin team and their Western opponents required a compromise between how faithful these units were to their cultural background, and how well they integrated into the overall game.It was a bit like settling a “Which side would win in a fight?” debate between kung fu movie lovers and D&D fans. But after lots of iterations, the Shaolin team is about evenly matched with the game’s original heroes, so victory is ultimately decided by the player with the best strategy.
Two Markets, Two Approaches to Branding, Marketing, and Narrative Background
When it came time to launch the new team in the West, we had a lot of branding and marketing discussions with Robot Entertainment through several development cycles. Essentially, we wondered whether our band of Chinese heroes should be called Jiang Hu at all. While Chinese gamers are totally familiar with that term, we agreed it would cause a lot of head scratching in the US and Europe. Ultimately we decided on “Shaolin”, which is actually the name of a Buddhist temple, though Westerners are far more familiar with the martial arts tradition associated with it.
While the team names are different in the Chinese and Western version, the core gameplay is essentially the same. The other difference is one of narrative perspective, which we also tweaked for the China launch. In the Western version, the Shaolin team is depicted as visitors: “The mystical warriors of the Shaolin,” as the Robot Entertainment announcement explains, “hope to test their skills at the fabled Hero Academy.”
In China, however, it’s the Shaolin/Jiang Hu who are depicted as the home team. In the new campaign mode we created specifically for the Chinese version, the Jiang Hu run Hero Academy, and the game’s original Council team are the ones who must make their way to the school in order to challenge them.
Final Takeaways for Future Cross-Cultural Game Development
While a lot of what we learned during the development of the Jiang Hu team is very specific to Hero Academy, there's a few broader takeaways any game developer should pay close attention to:
Cost Savings: As a developing nation heavily focused on teaching tech skills to the next generation, it's now very easy to hire (if you have a local partner) a China-based team of artists and other developers who can produce AAA-quality content at much less the cost than it would in the West.
Expertise Sharing: At the same time, while China has tech and artistic talent in great abundance, the West still has decades of experience in game development and innovation, so generally has the edge in the creation of original IP, and the honing of overall gameplay. (For this reason, many Chinese-based games are rampant knock-offs of Western hits, something I discussed last year on my blog.) We're pretty confident Hero Academy's Jiang Hu team drew from the best of both worlds to give gamers the best from our respective strengths.
Multiple Market Testing: With some 300 million iOS/Android owners in China, the country is in many ways an ideal test market for Western developers to try out new game features and monetization channels, analyze gamer reaction, and iterate accordingly before rolling out the game to the West. (And vice versa.) The language barrier and the popularity of local social networks like Sina Weibo (Facebook and Twitter are both blocked in China) make it easy to develop and update in relative secrecy, as you prepare your game to take over the world.
Now that China has the world's largest iOS/Android market, we should soon start seeing many more East/West crossovers like this. I certainly hope so. For far too long, with rare exceptions like World of Warcraft, Chinese and Western gamers have played very different titles. Now that we share the same mobile platforms, I think we finally have a chance to start sharing our games a lot more too. That’s good for us developers — and pretty great for world peace.

This post continues a week-long series celebrating fandom with EA Sports.
There are a number of pre-gaming traditions in Columbia. Those that like to tailgate in style (and have a bit of spending money) can get into a Cockaboose. Those that aren't grill masters and that prefer to have a dining establishment do the cooking can hang out at Yesterday's or one of Columbia's many fine barbecue establishments until it's time to get a ride down to the stadium. Others just do it the old fashioned way: they get a parking spot, pull out a grill and food, some tables, a cooler full of beverages, and they get down to business before the game.
My friends and I are part of the latter category, and that probably makes us fairly representative. To me, there's nothing like pre-gaming with friends, hamburgers, suds, and perhaps some form of recreation like beanbag toss. At Williams-Brice, you can do this in a number of spots around the stadium. The most well-known of these is the State Fairgrounds parking (although this can conflict with the Fair itself in late October), but there are lots in other lots and fields around the stadium that accommodate tailgating.
One tradition that I enjoy that some folks I know get involved in is making the opposing team's mascot the meat du jour at their tailgate. Doing this is a way to get back at rival fans that enjoy poking fun at our mascot, whose status as a protein staple and ubiqitous presence on plates across the country make it a common sight on our our enemies' grills. (Those of you that attended or watched last year's NC State game probably saw how popular this was in Raleigh.) Granted, we can't always return the favor: as much as we hate Tigers and Dawgs, it's not easy to get your hands on tiger meat and eating dog meat is, well, a good way to ruin your reputation in the Western world. That doesn't stop us from enjoying the delectable flesh of some of our other opponents...or that of their mascots, at least. Early and mid-November is the best time of the season for this. First up are the Arkansas Razorbacks, and it doesn't take an overactive imagination to conceive what a state known for its barbecuing ingenuity can do with that challenge. Next up is the Florida Gators. Yes, Gamecocks fans enjoy grilled gator tail steaks at tailgates. Don't ask me where the folks that do it get the meat, although I'm guessing that if you know enough people you can get connected to someone that enjoys a bit of gator hunting when the state opens season on the overpopulating reptiles. It's not too bad, by the way.
Whatever you do, though, the most important thing about a good tailgate is getting in the right mood to cheer on the Gamecocks. We like to think that we can will our team to victory against opposing SEC squads, and we know that if we do win, the post-game tailgate will be twice as sweet as the pre-game.
So, what are your tailgating traditions? Anything out of the ordinary? | <urn:uuid:778ffa57-104a-4929-bea1-5df82bc6fd41> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://www.garnetandblackattack.com/2010/7/7/1556759/where-i-come-from-gamecocks | 2023-10-04T20:07:57Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233511406.34/warc/CC-MAIN-20231004184208-20231004214208-00698.warc.gz | en | 0.972874 | 659 |
