Ever since the inception of cryptocurrency, most of the active frontiers in the innovation agenda has been men, however, in the last two years, not undermining the contribution of others, Elizabeth Stark has proven to be a female giant to reckon with her contribution such as the lightning network to the bitcoin community. So, someone might ask, who is Elizabeth Stark? Where is she from? What is her portfolio? Now, down to details.
Elizabeth Stark is a graduate of Harvard University where she got her J.D. in Law. She was given birth to in Brooklyn, New York and currently resides in San Francisco, the United States of America, she is the co-founder and CEO of Lightning Labs. Lightning labs is a company that “scales blockchains”. (What does it mean to scale blockchain? Find out later.) As a cryptocurrency enthusiast, she is a fellow at Coin Center. Coin Center is a research center established (non-profit) to advocate for the implementation of good government policies towards cryptocurrencies, i.e. Bitcoin, Ethereum, Litecoin etc. and other decentralized technologies. Although she is not very much involved in the academia as it seems to the crypto community, she, however, has not cut ties with academia. She is a visiting fellow at Yale’s Information Society project, and she teaches at Yale University also. In both universities, she has taught about P2P technology, open-source protocol, and other technologies. As a mentor the Thiel Fellowship, she works with the intention to provide support, i.e. financial, guidance to students under 23 years with the intention to drop out of school to pursue other projects. It would interest you to note that Stark is not a developer; however, her interest in technology is remarkable.
LIGHTNING LABS: HOW THE LIGHTNING NETWORK WORKS
Lightning labs is a tech startup that is developing an open protocol layer, leveraging on the availability of blockchain and smart contracts features to make transactions to anyone across the world cheap and fast. It is designed to help blockchain scalability. This is evident on the bitcoin blockchain with the activation of the Lightning network in 2018. By scalability, rather than the usual process whereby information is processed to all nodes to confirm transactions, this protocol streamlines the number of nodes involved in individual transactions. That way, the time it takes transactions to would be faster than usual, and it will also result in reasonable fees. Pairs of nodes mastermind these transactions. These nodes link the sender in a transaction to the receiver, and they are connected by payment channels existing on the original blockchain. When a channel is created, the two parties involved in the transaction puts funds on the blockchain into an entry with the two parties signing off for transactions to take place.
However, there are advantages and disadvantages to these type of transactions. Since the transaction require the consent of both parties to sign off the transactions, the non-availability of one of the party can result into either cancellation of the transaction or the unavailable party forfeits his funds. It is of importance to note that this lightning effect doesn’t work for only Bitcoin but other blockchains as well. In fact, there can be cross blockchain implantation using lightning such that there can be token swap anytime. Lastly, according to Lightning labs mission statement, they are on a mission to but the next generation’s resilient, decentralized & financial system.
“We believe systems based on cryptography, blockchain, and smart contracts will enhance financial cooperation around the world in unprecedented ways at scales both large and small.”
Watch her speak on the importance of Layer two here.
ELIZABETH STARK CONTRIBUTION TO THE CRYPTO COMMUNITY
Going by actual history, cryptocurrency didn’t start in 2008. In the 90’s of the 20th century, there were people called the cypherpunks, looking at their contribution via their writing, we find a striking resemblance between them and Bitcoin. Thus, we can say their crypto community finds a spot in the present age. In 2008, Bitcoin was invented with its official release in January 2009 by a man (or group, identity unknown) called Satoshi Nakamoto.
So, as said earlier that Elizabeth Stark is the CEO and co-founder of Lightning Labs, she has contributed to the community in the area of blockchains. First, what is a blockchain? The Blockchain is a ledger on the digital network in which transactions made in bitcoin or another cryptocurrency are recorded chronologically and publicly. With lightning labs, scaling of blockchains is possible. What does it mean to scale blockchains? This process deals with the number of transactions possible on the blockchain per unit time. The blockchain records transactions from the beginning, and this works by the passage of information from one node to the other. A blockchain is made up of nodes which confirms transactions on the chain. As at the creation of Bitcoin, it was given a block size limit of 1MB, and thus, when transactions are carried out, the information is stored in a block after the nodes have confirmed it and when the 1MB is exceeded, another block is created. So, by statistics, it is observed that the number of transactions processed per second on an average is between 3.3 to 7. Thus, this defines the scalability of the blockchain as a result of the traffic in processing information. So, to resolve this issue for future adoption, she introduced a concept tagged “Layer Two”. This is widely known as the Lightning network, which Bitcoin Core developers clamored for when people called for SEGWIT activation in 2017.
KEY CHALLENGES OF BITCOIN AND ITS BLOCKCHAIN
- Time: Earlier, it was mentioned that once a block is filled, a new block is created, thus, on an average, every ten minutes, a new block is created. This delays transaction procedures as transactions that are queued up following the filling of a block would wait for confirmation by the miners. These transactions that are queued following an overflow are in what we call “the bitcoin mempool”. Due to this rigorous process, while some transactions are still being queued up, other transactions come into the queue. Thus, it is understandable that the bigger the transactions are queued up, the more percentage of them get stuck in the mempool. As of January 2018, the average confirmation time reached an all-time-high of 190 hours 53 minutes or approximately eight days. This processing time delay coupled with the increased transaction fees made many investors nervous where there was a plan to activate SEGWIT 24 on the blockchain which would raise the block size limit and give room for forks on the blockchain. The aftermath of this decision resulted in two significant hard forks with the resulting currencies named Bitcoin Cash and Bitcoin Gold respectively.
- Transaction Fees: In cryptocurrency, as said nodes are the authority figures on the blockchain, and they are not privatized, it’s a universal consensus that decided what happens on the blockchains. The people operating these nodes are called miners. Cryptocurrency mining is a lucrative part of cryptocurrency. Bitcoin is a Proof of Work currency, and thus, the way the miners get paid is via solving complex cryptographic puzzles. Their work is to process every transaction and in turn, add their transaction memory to the blockchain. As a reward for their work in sustaining the blockchain, they are paid in Bitcoin; these rewards are from the transaction fees and payouts for keeping the blockchain in check. So, even though the high TX fees are beneficial to the miners, it is however unprofitable to the transaction participants on the blockchain. Besides, high TX fees would not support micropayments. So, in resolving these issues, Elizabeth started Lightning Labs proposing a Layer two open source protocol on the original blockchain such that the problem of having transactions in the Bitcoin mempool causing time delays in the transaction and the high fees is cut off.
This video by Manuel Stages titled “The Blockchain and Us” features Elizabeth’s interview too.
LIGHTNING LABS: SMART CONTRACTS
The lightning effect brings a contractual impact to the bitcoin blockchain. It can be said to be a smart-contracting system. In this structure, however, the blockchain serves as the court that cannot be bribed. Remember, that every transaction on the blockchain is in erasable and uneditable. So, when the smart contract is prepared and everything that the contract details are predetermined. Lightning makes sure the contract is rightfully executed.
In understanding this better, let’s say two persons want to transact namely Rice and Water as payment for an online service charge. They both would enter into a 2 -of- 2 multi-signature agreement (this can be likened to a bank’s joint savings account where both signatures are required to perform a fund withdrawal action) on the original blockchain. Then this action takes them to Layer two which reads the transaction between the two. Imagine Rice and Water put in $50 and $100 respectively making a $150 payment channel. It would be that every time they transact, they exchange their digital signature to update the transaction history of their off-chain channel. It is important to note that the transaction is in the open source protocol and the coins don’t leave the blockchain, what is recorded is a transaction. A channel is open when the transaction is taking place and is closed when the transaction is completed such that the final transaction history is added to the blockchain. So, since the blockchain protects the participants against the theft of coins, in cases of attempted theft, the thief loses his tokens in the process as a penalty and his funds is credited to the participant whose tokens was to be stolen. It is, however, advisable to broadcast the most recent legitimate status of the channel in any case of attempted stealing before the final transaction is sent to the blockchain.
The instance explained above is that which exist between two participants, what about a network between channels such that Rice wants to send $25 to Dan but they don’t have an open channel, but Water has an open channel with Dan. Thus, instead of Rice to open a new channel with Dan, Rice can send the payment through Water. However, in this scenario, Lightning network works such that Water sends the funds to Dan first before he retrieves his money from Rice even though it might come at a fee because he’s acting as a lightning node. This structure prevents Water from stealing the funds. It is important to know that this system doesn’t exist based on trust. Thus, everything is done carefully and in order.
Since the crypto space is a technologically oriented space, there has been quite a number of criticisms towards her due to her supposed inability to explain deep technical concepts behind her project. Though she has a legal background, her enthusiasm is seen every time she speaks and has in vivid ways using examples to explain complex issues in her project. However, we can say that the criticism of her on upspeaking is perhaps due to the main reason why the interview was conducted which is to allow her to talk more about her project but the community wants more of which no one at any time has sent up proofs to back up their claims.
So also, it is observed that while Lightning helps to make micropayments easier, faster & cheaper, the same cannot be said of a bigger transaction as it raises a lot of questions of distrust within the system. For instance, under the penalty transaction, imagine someone with $10 funds being penalized for alleged theft attempt and he has his funds transferred to the other, although the funds are small, however, the penalty transaction would raise a lot of eyebrows. That said, now imagine someone whose funds is $100,000 and is told about penalty transaction of which his funds would be transferred to aggrieved bitcoiner who complained of token theft, if this is not well managed, that single act can turn away users from setting up smart contracts on the bitcoin blockchain using Lighting network. Whilst the Lightning network has delivered on its promise of making bitcoin transactions easier, cheaper and faster, it has to improve itself because large-scale vendors are effective contributors in any economy. | <urn:uuid:cd6311c7-c6b5-4520-84d7-6eed1e276f50> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://101blockchains.com/who-is-elizabeth-stark/ | 2024-04-19T13:28:48Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817398.21/warc/CC-MAIN-20240419110125-20240419140125-00268.warc.gz | en | 0.961579 | 2,483 |

Chafing is a skin irritation that happens with constant rubbing of the skin against another skin or clothing. Chafing causes red sore patches on the affected areas usually in the underarm and the inner thighs that will cause pain and makes regular activities tiresome and causes pain.
[youtube url=”https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eAD8xIz7YbQ”]Sweating and rubbing are usually the cause of chafing and overweight people are prone to skin chafing. It is common in men and women and performing any activities that causes prolonged friction between two surfaces of skin such as in the inner thighs.
- Inflammation and swelling
- Stinging and burning sensation
- Excessive irritation
- The affected area becomes sore and severely tender
- Chafing can be caused by obesity where the buildup of fats causes development of folds in the skin due to constant friction with skin rubbing with each other.
- Performing certain exercises that need the body to move into a position where the skin will rub with skin or clothing.
- Excessive sweating can cause inflammation and rashes that are prone to chafing.
- Wearing tight hugging clothes and wet clothing that clings to skin causes friction during movement.
- The material that the clothing is made of can sometimes result to chafing such as synthetic clothing that more likely to cause chafing.
- Clean the affected areas using a mild cleanser and rinse with water. Pat it dry using a clean towel in order to wash off perspiration before treating the skin. Avoid rubbing the skin hard using a towel in order to prevent the condition worse from getting worse.
- Sprinkle powder over the affected skin in order to help lessen friction on the skin. Talc-free baby powder, baking soda and cornstarch can be used for the condition.
- Apply any kind of ointment such as petroleum jelly, diaper rash cream, body balm and some products that are used in preventing chafing in order to help minimize friction on the skin. Cover the area using bandage or a sterile gauze pad. If the area is bleeding and painful, seek medical help immediately.
- Apply an ice pack on the affected area. Wrap the ice pack in a towel of cloth and hold in place for at least 20 minutes. The cooling sensation provides relief from the symptoms.
- Make a mixture by mixing 2 cups of baking soda and 10 drops of lavender essential oil. Mix well and add this mixture in a lukewarm water bath. Soak in the mixture for at least 20 minutes and pat the skin dry using a clean towel, avoid soaking in very hot water in order to prevent making the condition worse.
- Drink plenty of water especially when performing exercises in order to help the body sweat easier and helps prevents formation of salt crystals which can cause friction and result to chafing.
- Try to lose some weight. | <urn:uuid:7302ead4-bff6-4646-8a10-2988f92355f4> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://1staid.ca/chafing/ | 2024-04-19T13:02:33Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817398.21/warc/CC-MAIN-20240419110125-20240419140125-00268.warc.gz | en | 0.935095 | 607 |

Does BetterHelp take HSA?
i’m still with that very same therapist and right within the very first session my most significant concern as to my instructions in life and what i want and that got the answer actually rapidly my therapist essentially made me understand that the response i have actually been trying to find was always there within me i have actually just been too terrified to admit that that is my response because of a lot of factors expectations of others expectations myself however i keep in mind coming out from that treatment session being actually not mind-blown but how do you call it like horses have those blinders like those have been lifted i was like wow all right this makes a lot sense and i spent the following week actually reflective and thinking of what my therapist told me how i would apply that to my life what that means for me yeah and after that fortunately my therapist has actually constantly been on time there is no more issues with the time difference i had a great deal of sessions where i really came out sensation actually good feeling truly productive and my therapist likewise had a few questions for me that i got to think of throughout the week which i personally truly liked i’m more a reflective person and she asked me some truly difficult concerns that are really essential though even though i’ve just been to treatment like one and a half months i truly feel like it’s truly assisted me

Sliding Scale Fees.
Some individuals find a therapist they like who does not take their insurance coverage, however who will deal with them and see them on a sliding scale. Sliding-scale therapists may charge a lower fee than another psychologist who has a private practice, enabling you to bypass the deductible problem. The sliding scale provides lower rates to those with less monetary versatility.
Inexpensive And Totally Free Centers.
Another alternative for discovering budget friendly mental healthcare is to discover a low-cost clinic. Under the Affordable Care Act, some mental health care facilities are designed for people who have lower earnings (where you can pay a sliding scale cost for therapy sessions and psychological health advantages). Some universities have programs where graduate students are training in psychology under the American Psychological Association (APA) standards and provide low-cost services under the Affordable Care Act..

Johnny Funk with his brothers Alexander and Paddy assisted the POWs and other locals involved in the Sandakan Underground, North Borneo.
The three brothers became part of the local underground movement assisting Australian POWS. Alex Funk was executed and the other two brothers imprisoned by the Japanese when the movement was betrayed.
Following the capture and torture of the POWs at Sandakan, they were taken to Kutching for a military trial. Following the trial Alex and 7 other local men from Borneo were executed.
Johnny was imprisoned at Kutching Gaol for four months in a 20ft X 15ft cage with 100s of prisoners during which time they were brutally tortured on a daily basis. He wrote of the kindness of a Catholic nun, Mother Augustine who brought them food. Sadly my research has not been successful in locating Mother Augustine (most missionaries were imprisoned, some died of illness and some were murdered by their Japanese guards.)
‘THE Funk brothers – Johnny, Alexander and Paddy – were members of the North Borneo Volunteer Force (before the war). Their family home was near where the Allied Prisoners Of War (POWs) were interned from July 1942. This enabled the brothers to establish secret contacts with the POWs which saw them providing help and serving as conduits between the POWs and the hospital in Sandakan.
When their activities were betrayed to the Japanese in July 1943, the brothers were arrested and severely punished by the Japanese Army; Alex was executed while Johnny and Paddy suffered great physical and psychological torture.
The brothers first came into contact with the POWs in September 1942. Alex, who was the youngest, made the initial contact with Captain Lionel Matthews, the POW officer who was the camp’s intelligence officer (who was executed).
Matthews had requested assistance in food, medicine and radio parts. With radio parts supplied by Johnny and others, a radio was assembled by the Australian POWs and was put into operation.
Apart from supplying radio parts, the Funk brothers were also instrumental in establishing links between the POWs and Dr V. Stookes, a World War I British fighter pilot. After completing his medical studies, Stookes came to North Borneo to work as an estate doctor on the Kinabatangan River. He owned a seaplane which he used for his medical services. With Stookes’ help, more medicines were made available to the POWs’
Please read further about the locals of Sandakan who risked their lives and those of their family members to assist the Underground and the POWs.
Below we will see Johnny and his wife, Mrs Funk visit Perth, WA and it appears their son Melvin will attend school at Aquinas.
Johnny Funk had been hosted by Les Riches and his wife, staying with them at their home in Darlington.
Mrs. L.G. Riches has been a strong and hard working advocate for former POWs since the war ended and prior to that she organised POWs and relatives.
When it was announced due to ill health of Mrs Riches, she as Les were moving to Melbourne where their only daughter Helen and her husband resided. We assume this may have led to the Funks then settling in Melbourne and Melvin attending school in Victoria rather than Perth.

Hello, nice to meet you, and welcome to our store. Thank you for your interest in us, and here I’d like to share our story with you.
Our story begins in February 2022. Our founder, Emma, and her friends started 42Shops, an online store selling a variety of cute plush toys.
The story of 42Shops founder Emma
Emma was so obscure during her school years that even her teachers couldn’t remember what she looked like. Yes, you are surrounded by such people, you spend many years together, yet as soon as you part, you forget her. However, an ordinary person can have her dreams, even though her little dream is known only to her.
After graduating from college, Emma joined an Internet company and after 9 years of hard work, she became a department manager. Thanks to a fast-growing industry, Emma’s income has grown year after year, and with a mortgage, she has bought the house she loves in a big city. Emma naively thought that her life would go on forever, as she became a mother of two children and had an enviable job. Her income was increasing and her life was getting better. That is, until the COVID-19 in early 2020. Emma’s entire department was laid off by the company as a result of the epidemic.
Falling from the top of life
Emma never thought she would lose her job at the top of her game. However, what was even more tragic was that Emma found it difficult to find a job. Chinese companies like young people, especially recent college graduates. Middle-aged people often don’t even get a chance to interview.
Emma didn’t believe it. She tries hard, posting resumes, and on one day she attended four interviews, including one that took her two hours to travel from the south side of the city to the north side, but none of them went through. Midlife unemployment means a lot. Credit card bills are piling up, mortgage payments are getting more stressful by the day, and the kids’ expenses are not going anywhere.
Emma doesn’t believe it. She was capable and had years of experience in the industry, but were all these things worthless? Working under pressure for so long, Emma couldn’t stop. She couldn’t accept that she didn’t have a job, she had to keep herself busy. However, time and time again, her efforts were only met with failure.
Daughter’s plush toy
One night, after her last interview, Emma wanders the streets of the city, discouraged. As Emma walked down the hallway to her room, she heard the sound of her daughter talking, and through the doorway she saw her daughter lying on her desk, stroking a small stuffed animal, and she said, “There, there, Mommy is not a loser, Mommy is just tired and needs to rest.” Emma’s eyes moistened in the corners and she opened the door to her daughter’s room and went in to hug her.
For the next few days, Emma dropped everything and just spent time with her children. I don’t know if you’ve ever had the experience that sometimes life takes a turn in the blink of an eye? Just after that night, Emma stopped being anxious and finally gave herself permission to slow down and stop. It’s like when it’s pouring rain and you’re stuck on the highway and you can’t move an inch. Suddenly, however, the rain stops, a rainbow appears in the sky, the car in front of you starts to slow down, and the whole highway resumes flowing at an incredible speed.
Start a new journey
Emma discovered that her daughter loved stuffed animals, and when she was busy with work and didn’t have time for her, she used to talk to the stuffed animals from time to time, treating them as if they were her mother, talking to them and dressing them up. Like a lightning bolt of inspiration, Emma asked her daughter how she would like to sell stuffed animals. “Great, I’ll have a new toy to play with every day,” she said happily.
The stuffed animals gave Emma the strength to be reborn, and she wanted to bring that joy to the world. This is Emma’s story and the story of the birth of 42Shops. :)
At this stage, we mainly sell ordinary plush toys and IP-licensed products. Plush toys are silent with us, you can always hug them gently at any time, soft, cute, and never absent when you need them. You can gift plush toys to friends, family, and of course yourself. I know some people like to fill their homes with stuffed animals, on bookshelves, on the couch, next to the TV, etc., but you should know that most stuffed animals like to be in the sun, they like sunlight.
Most plush toys are more prone to dust, so if they sit for a long time, you can throw them in the washing machine to clean them. If you have a dryer, you can throw them in and bake them so they will be restored to their former glory and become even softer. By the way, stuffed animals love the dryer, but not the oven, so you can’t bake them to eat them. :D
In addition to regular plush toys, we also sell IP licensed products, mainly game and anime peripherals, such as Changed games, MDZS, TGCF related products. These products are all licensed by the IP parties. We also provide a lot of value-added services to the players of these original works, making this place a home for the players and fans.
Any time you are not satisfied with any product you purchase from 42Shops, please feel free to let us know and you will receive a refund - just let us know with an email. We’re also regular consumers most of the time, and we don’t like to spend money and make ourselves unhappy. We want every 42Shops customer to have an enjoyable shopping experience every time. We want 42Shops products to stay with you for a long time, bringing you warmth and happiness.
Do you have a favorite product that you can’t find at 42Shops? Please let us know. Do you have a story you’d like to share with us? We are always ready to listen. If you are satisfied with our products and services, please don’t be shy to share them with your family and friends, or you are welcome to send us an email or message.
By the way, what does 42Shops mean?
When Emma was young, she loved a science fiction book by British author Douglas Adams called The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy. The book had an interesting setting, the ultimate answer to life, the universe, and everything. The answer is 42. I suggest you Google it. We mentioned earlier that Emma has a little dream, and the answer is revealed, and that is to sail freely through the universe on a light-speed ship. This girl’s dream is pretty cool, right?

Hyperpigmentation is a common issue that many people face, whether you are black brown, or beige when it comes to brown spots on the face no one is spared. In this blog, we will explore
- What hyperpigmentation is,
- What causes it
- How it can be treated.
Hyperpigmentation is a condition that occurs when the skin produces too much melanin, the pigment responsible for the color of the skin. When there is an overproduction of melanin in certain areas of the skin, it can lead to the appearance of dark spots or patches. These dark spots are commonly referred to as hyperpigmentation.
Hyperpigmentation on the face can take on different forms, including age spots, melasma, and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation. Age spots are brownish spots that appear on the face as a result of sun exposure. Melasma is a type of hyperpigmentation that is often caused by hormonal fluctuations, such as during pregnancy.
Post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation is a type of discoloration that develops after an injury or inflammation of the skin. However, it’s important to remember that you’re not alone in this struggle, and there are effective ways to address and minimize brown spots.
What Causes Hyperpigmentation?
Hyperpigmentation can be caused by a variety of factors, including sun exposure, hormonal changes, genetics, and inflammation. Sun exposure is a major cause of hyperpigmentation, as harmful UV rays can stimulate the production of melanin in the skin. Hormonal changes, such as those that occur during pregnancy or while taking birth control pills, can also lead to hyperpigmentation.
Genetics also play a role in how prone someone is to hyperpigmentation. Hormonal Factors: Hormonal fluctuations, particularly during pregnancy (melasma) or while taking certain contraceptives, can cause brown spots on the face. Melasma typically manifests as symmetrical, brownish patches on the cheeks, forehead, or upper lip. Genetics also play a role in how prone someone is to hyperpigmentation.
How Can Hyperpigmentation Be Treated?
There are several treatments available for hyperpigmentation, depending on the severity and underlying cause of the condition. Here are some of the most common treatments:
- Topical Creams: There are various creams and serums available that can help reduce the appearance of hyperpigmentation. These products often contain ingredients such as hydroquinone, retinoids, and vitamin C.
- Chemical Peels: Chemical peels involve the application of a solution to the skin that causes the top layer to peel off. This can help reduce the appearance of hyperpigmentation and improve the texture of the skin.
- Laser Therapy: Laser therapy involves the use of a laser to target the pigmented areas of the skin. This can break up the excess melanin and stimulate the production of new, healthy skin cells.
- Microdermabrasion: Microdermabrasion involves the use of a unique tool to remove the outer layer of dead skin cells. This can help reduce the appearance of hyperpigmentation and improve the overall texture and tone of the skin.
- Sun Protection: One of the most important things you can do to prevent and treat hyperpigmentation is to protect your skin from the sun. This means wearing sunscreen daily and avoiding prolonged exposure to the sun.
Preventive Measures for Brown Spots
Taking preventive steps can significantly reduce the occurrence of brown spots and help maintain a clear and even complexion. Consider the following preventive measure
- Sun Protection:
Consistently apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen with a high SPF (sun protection factor) to shield your skin from harmful UV radiation. Additionally, wear protective clothing, such as hats and sunglasses, and seek shade during peak sun hours.
2. Skincare Routine:
Adopt a skincare routine that incorporates gentle cleansing, exfoliation, and moisturization. Use products containing ingredients like vitamin C, niacinamide, or retinol, which can help reduce pigmentation and even out the skin tone.
3. Hormonal Considerations:
If you’re prone to melasma due to hormonal factors, consult with a healthcare professional about potential alternative contraceptives or medications to minimize the risk of hyperpigmentation.
In conclusion, hyperpigmentation of brown spots on the face is a common condition that can be caused by various factors. Fortunately, there are several treatments available that can help reduce the appearance of hyperpigmentation and improve the health and appearance of your skin. By taking a proactive approach to skincare and incorporating these treatments into your routine, you can achieve a brighter, more even complexion. | <urn:uuid:ff434d16-dde9-4714-a6e2-e42d368fe672> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://4everyoungvegan.com/brown-pigmentation-on-the-face-hyperpigmentation/ | 2024-04-19T12:42:18Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817398.21/warc/CC-MAIN-20240419110125-20240419140125-00268.warc.gz | en | 0.930501 | 988 |

The day before the last day of school for the big kids, my baby graduated from preschool.
This was her third preschool graduation.
But this was the real deal. The end. The finale.
And I made it out of there without bawling. Which was a big deal for me.
Sure, I bawled after our last IEP (I wrote about that back here.) And a bunch to Dave about how worried I am about Kindergarten next year. Oh, and to her teacher I adore and her vision teacher I have grown so close to. And to the ladies in the front office.
But for some reason that particular graduation I was dry-eyed.
We had been busy.
We made this for her beloved teacher:
…filled with slips of paper with all of Lu’s favorite memories from the last three years, and pictures (which I have a lot of) and a gift card.
Lucy was so excited to present it.
We also made this for her darling bus drivers who have put up with me requesting drops and pick ups all over creation this year when I was out of town.
I eeked out one last story of the family of hearts who have exceptional manners that we have made up together over the year as we have sat in that spot.
A little later Dave and I met her for the big graduation. | <urn:uuid:ec1b51ad-627f-4f79-b4f9-8e8857d88d60> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://71toes.com/real-end-of-preschoo/ | 2024-04-19T12:17:32Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817398.21/warc/CC-MAIN-20240419110125-20240419140125-00268.warc.gz | en | 0.988059 | 285 |

In the ever-evolving world of gaming, 3D game development companies serve as the architects of virtual worlds, crafting immersive experiences that captivate audiences worldwide. These companies harness cutting-edge technology, artistic talent, and innovative ideas to push the boundaries of what’s possible in interactive entertainment. This article delves into the realm of 3D game development companies, highlighting their significance, evolution, and the key players driving the industry forward.
The Evolution of 3D Game Development: The history of 3D game development traces back to the early days of video games, where developers experimented with rudimentary three-dimensional graphics. However, it wasn’t until the 1990s that 3D graphics truly came into their own with the advent of powerful hardware and software. Pioneering companies like id Software and Epic Games introduced groundbreaking titles such as Doom and Unreal, showcasing the potential of 3D graphics to create immersive gaming experiences.
As technology advanced, so did the complexity and fidelity of 3D games. Companies began to invest heavily in graphics engines, animation tools, and physics simulations to create more realistic worlds and lifelike characters. This led to the emergence of iconic franchises like Tomb Raider, Half-Life, and Final Fantasy, which set new standards for visual storytelling and gameplay.
The Significance of 3D Game Development Companies: 3D game development companies play a crucial role in shaping the gaming industry and driving innovation. These companies bring together diverse teams of artists, programmers, designers, and engineers who collaborate to create immersive gaming experiences. One of their key contributions is the ability to create visually stunning worlds that draw players into the game’s universe.
Through advanced graphics technology and meticulous attention to detail, 3D game development companies craft environments that are rich in atmosphere and authenticity. Whether exploring sprawling open worlds or navigating intricate dungeons, players are transported to fantastical realms that feel alive and immersive.
Moreover, 3D game development companies are at the forefront of technical innovation. They constantly push the boundaries of what’s possible with real-time rendering, physics simulations, and artificial intelligence. This results in games that not only look stunning but also offer engaging gameplay mechanics and dynamic experiences.
Key Players in the 3D Game Development Industry: The 3D game development industry is home to a diverse array of companies, each with its own unique strengths and specialties. While the landscape is constantly evolving, several key players have made a significant impact on the industry:
Ubisoft: Known for its diverse portfolio of franchises including Assassin’s Creed, Far Cry, and Rainbow Six, Ubisoft is one of the largest game development companies in the world.
Electronic Arts (EA): With popular franchises like FIFA, Madden NFL, and Battlefield, EA is a major player in the gaming industry, known for its high-quality production values and blockbuster titles.
Naughty Dog: Renowned for its cinematic storytelling and character-driven narratives, Naughty Dog has created critically acclaimed games such as the Uncharted series and The Last of Us.
Activision Blizzard: Home to iconic franchises like Call of Duty, World of Warcraft, and Overwatch, Activision Blizzard is a powerhouse in the gaming industry, known for its dedication to quality and innovation.
CD Projekt Red: Based in Poland, CD Projekt Red is known for its immersive role-playing games including The Witcher series and Cyberpunk 2077, and is celebrated for its commitment to player choice and narrative depth.
In conclusion, 3D game development companies are the driving force behind some of the most immersive and engaging gaming experiences. Through their creativity, technical expertise, and innovation, these companies continue to push the boundaries of what’s possible in interactive entertainment. As technology evolves and player expectations rise, the role of 3D game development companies will only become more central to the gaming industry, shaping the future of gaming for years to come. | <urn:uuid:27bfcacd-2eca-4ac2-b019-c657cb354668> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://a4everyone.org/the-creative-powerhouses-exploring-the-realm-of-3d-game-development-companies/ | 2024-04-19T12:40:41Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817398.21/warc/CC-MAIN-20240419110125-20240419140125-00268.warc.gz | en | 0.932694 | 790 |
This piculet is only found in northeastern Brazil, where it shares habitat with the Araripe Manakin and White-browed Antpitta. Like many other species with small ranges, it's threatened by habitat loss. The bird is considered scarce and is classified as Near Threatened by the International Union for Conservation of Nature.
Alike Yet Different
Like other woodpeckers (including another Brazilian specialty, the Kaempfer's Woodpecker), piculets have large heads, long, barbed tongues used to snare their insect prey, and zygodactyl feet, with two toes pointing forward and two backward.
However, piculets are much smaller than most other woodpeckers and lack the stiff tail feathers of their larger relatives, which are used as props when climbing trees. The Tawny Piculet is more likely to be seen perched across a branch like a songbird or hanging upside down from a thin twig like a nuthatch.
Sign up for ABC's eNews to learn how you can help protect birds
Piculet bills are shorter and less dagger-like than the bigger woodpeckers, so they dig for insects and grubs in softer, decaying wood.
The Tawny Piculet was once considered a race of the closely related Ochraceous Piculet, another Brazilian endemic found further to the north. Much of its breeding biology, display behavior, and diet is still unknown.
Fortunately, the Tawny Piculet seems able to tolerate a degree of habitat degradation and disturbance. Some researchers have observed this woodpecker using drier second-growth forest and believe the species may be colonizing regenerating cleared areas.
Help Save Brazilian Birds
ABC is helping our local partner, Aquasis, purchase a 158-acre property in northeastern Brazil to provide additional habitat for the critically endangered Araripe Manakin. The area also shelters the Tawny Piculet, White-browed Antpitta and many other birds, including the rapidly disappearing Silvery-cheeked Antshrike and Caatinga Antshrike.
This purchase would double the amount of caatinga habitat under protection in the area. Want to help? Support the land purchase!

A.J. Green announces retirement; played for Cards, Bengals
"I've never been a man of many words, so I'll keep this short," Green began his Instagram post.
"Thank you. Thank you to all who have supported, encouraged, and inspired me throughout my career. Special thank you to the University of Georgia, Cincinnati Bengals, and Arizona Cardinals for the opportunity to pursue my dreams. I've stayed true to the game and it owes me nothing. Be blessed.. Love y'all! The next chapter begins..."
Green, 34, played 11 seasons in the NFL after being picked by the Bengals with the fourth overall pick in the 2011 NFL draft.
The receiver played his first nine seasons for the Bengals and began his career with five consecutive 1,000-yard seasons. Green had only two seasons with more than 900 receiving yards after that stretch.
Green finished his time in Cincinnati as one of the most prolific receivers in franchise history.
He was second in the team's all-time rankings in receptions (649), receiving yards (9,430) and touchdowns (65). He also had the most 100-yard receiving games in franchise history (33). His last season on the team came in 2020, when he spent the year on the franchise tag.
He signed back-to-back one-year contracts with the Cardinals before announcing his retirement. Since he entered the league in 2011, he is one of only five wide receivers to amass more than 10,000 receiving yards, according to ESPN Stats & Information research. Tampa Bay Buccaneers receivers Julio Jones and Mike Evans, Cardinals receiver DeAndre Hopkins and Antonio Brown are the others players in that group.
In a December interview with ESPN's Josh Weinfuss, Green addressed the prospect of retirement, telling Weinfuss, "Whatever happens is going to happen. I made the money. I have the accolades, I'm stress free. Whatever happens next year, I'm at peace with it. If I want to play, then I will have an opportunity, but if I don't want to play, I can walk around with my head held high."
During that same conversation, Green said, "I always told people ... physically, I can play this game for a while, but mentally I don't know if I can go through it again. You know what I mean? And I'm a guy that never wanted to cheat the game, so if I'm not all-in, I'm going to be all out."
A two-time All-Pro, Green was selected to seven Pro Bowls and finished with 10,514 yards and 70 career touchdowns.

Five ways NFL teams can engage fans around the Super Bowl
The draw of a live event presents huge opportunities for teams and leagues to create engaging content and touchpoints with fans while maximizing value for sponsors.
We wanted to offer five tips on how NFL teams can leverage the popularity of their SuperBowl experience or other major events to drive fan engagement, with concepts that can be translated across the world of sport.
1. Focus on video, and what you can offer
Sports fans engage significantly more with video-based content than any other. Fans are watching more video than ever across multiple platforms, be it social media, OTT or on TV. You should look to deliver video content that is accessible to fans on any and every platform.
Looking specifically at social media, NFL teams can offer a unique view into their roster by creating behind-the-scenes videos from the locker room or training field, or deliver live player Q&A shows to Facebook or YouTube in the build-up to the game, giving fans close access to the team.
— Los Angeles Rams (@RamsNFL) February 8, 2022
You should also look to leverage your archive content – retell compelling stories and those magic moments from your journey to the SuperBowl or before that. This should be done in the weeks leading up to the game to build excitement and engagement, but fans will be most receptive on match day. Teams should look to cover every angle and corner of their Super Bowl experience – fans want access and context, they want to see what each player sees in real-time, to feel like they are a part of the experience.
Try to keep developing how you deliver video. The rise of short-form content on TikTok has been prolific in engaging fans across the world. Our research found that TikTok users across the world increased by 366% between 2020 to 2021. As with all platforms, it’s important to understand which video formats suit each platform. You can read more about that in our recent Social Video Trends report.
2. Deliver your own live content
Engagement peaks occur when events are live. On Super Bowl Sunday make sure your content goes out in real-time. This real-time content will cut through the noise on social platforms and allow fans to engage with the match as it happens. This will give you the best chance to get fans consuming your content while they are most interested in the Super Bowl.

Can you hear the birds chirping outside your window? This is the sound of Spring!
The days are getting longer – finally! We will soon be leaving the dark half of the year and embracing the early spring rays of the Sun! Soon, it will be time to celebrate the Spring Equinox, also known as Ostara.
Ostara is celebrated in the second half of March in the Wheel of the Year and can be compared to Easter in the Christian calendar. But what is Ostara? This is what this blog is all about! But not just that. It will also be about eating seasonally and new ways of looking at it.
Nature is coming out of its winter sleep and waking up, reborn with its new Spring clothing. It’s time to thank darkness and welcome in the new light!
What is Ostara?
Ostara is an ancient Celtic celebration celebrated on the Spring Equinox in the second half of March. Some still celebrate it today. Let’s travel back in time together and find out its origins.
Ostara is one of the fire festivals. As mentioned earlier, it celebrates nature’s awakening, a time for growth and rejuvenation. Ostara is also the name of the Germanic goddess representing renewal and abundance—i.e., the goddess of spring.
In the Pagan calendar or Wheel of the Year, the goddess and the god are in a constant cycle. The goddess or triple goddess moves through the stages of mother, maiden and crone as the wheel turns. She represents earth, fertility, abundance and new beginnings. On the other hand, the god, also known as the sun god, represents, as its name indicates, the sun and warmth. As the wheel turns and the season changes, he battles darkness and is victorious as the wheel turns towards the Summer Solstice.
Ostara is the perfect occasion to celebrate the balance between new beginnings (the goddess) and growth and warmth (the god). Traditionally, you would build an altar with symbols that represent spring:
You can also take the time to write down blessings and light candles.
What can this mean to you?
What does it mean today and how can you celebrate it
Renewal and birth are key at this time of year. It’s a very powerful and potent time due to the stirring of nature and the perspective of future harvests. You can celebrate that by spending time with family, decorating eggs, making space, and cleansing your surroundings to invite the energy of spring and connect with the new beginnings ahead.
This is also a time for planting seeds and honouring the soil and environment around you. Planting seeds can also give you the opportunity to think about seasonal eating and reconnect with the rhythms of nature.
Here is what the Open Food Network UK team think about seasonal eating and their own experience:
In fact, eating seasonally whilst following the wheel of the year can be a great way to connect with nature. Finding new ways to celebrate the seasons and their particularities can be healing and an opportunity to understand it better. It can make seasonal eating fun and also allow you to push for change within your community.
Jamaica Kincaid Antiguan – an American author and gardening writer says that celebrating nature and gardening has informed her work and vice versa.
“When I’m writing, I think about the garden, and when I’m in the garden I think about writing. I do a lot of writing by putting something in the ground.”
“I shall never have the garden I have in my mind, but that for me is the joy of it; certain things can never be realised and so all the more reason to attempt them.”
Sometimes, starting to grow your own fruit and veg can be daunting. But, Kincaid also believed that it was not about achieving exactly what you had in mind; the journey is what counts.

New KNGC2007 was developed using studies in the National Anthropometric Survey for the 1997 (NAS1997) and you can 2005 (NAS2005), if prevalence regarding carrying excess fat within the Korea had already started initially to improve. In america and British, investigation supply, which were gotten till the frequency out of carrying excess fat improved, were utilized into growth of the organization charts to cease weight-for-years and you may Bmi-for-years percentiles out of moving on up.5,15) In the usa, multiple weight research set was indeed omitted from the growth of this new 2000 CDC Gains Maps, that have been obtained if the frequency of being obese enhanced. This new average worth (50th percentile) away from Bmi-for-years when you look Germany deaf dating at the Korean people and you will teens increased anywhere between 1997 and you may 2005 and also plateaued as ) Yet not, the fresh new 95th percentile viewpoints off Body mass index-for-many years got enhanced anywhere between 1997 and you can 2015 ( Fig. 1 ).

Various surface treatments have been developed on titanium and its alloy to improve their tribological properties. However, for some components, only specific surfaces need to be hardened rather than the whole surfaces. This study develops a duplex heat treatment including selective surface hardening by prepainting TiO2 powders and thermal oxidation. It is found that the TiO2 powder layer can be used as an oxygen reservoir for boosting diffusion treatment at temperatures of 800-900 °C. The abundance of oxygen provides high potential and accelerates the diffusion process, deeply hardening the surface case. Moreover, the duplex treatment is optimal for selectively hardened surfaces with high load-bearing capacity and much improved tribological properties. Prepainting the surfaces that need to be hardened is easy to operate and has good potential to be applied in industry. © 2023 The Authors. Published by American Chemical Society.

I often get into discussions about the pros and cons of reading print or screen texts. It's an emotional issue as many book lovers feel threatened by a digital takeover and the possible demise of books and newspapers. Many find screen reading a strain and prefer to print longer texts they find on the net. Many find digital formats lack the feel and soul of the print version and enjoy the tactile appeal of a book. I read both varieties and although I still prefer print I realize that it's largely a matter of what you are accustomed to. I can't see printed media disappearing in the near future though just take a look at the music industry to see an equally radical change that took place without many people really noticing - our music collections have moved from the shelves of our living rooms to our mobiles and record stores have almost disappeared from most high streets. Certainly there is discussion about how the sound quality of digital mp3 files is far inferior to that of vinyl records but for the vast majority that doesn't seem to matter. So what about the differences between print and screen reading?
I found an article from last year by Cindy Orr called Paper Vs. Screen—Does It Matter Anymore? She reviews research evidence for a significant difference between screen and print reading and finds that previously perceived differences are slowly disappearing.
- We're reading much faster on the screen today than a few years ago and studies indicate that the gap is narrowing into insignificance.
- Comprehension levels are about the same even if many people think they understand a print text better.
- We feel much more comfortable with screen reading especially with the advent of tablets.
- Our reading behaviour, in terms of eye movements, is very similar between print and screen.
"Younger children who read printed books as well as used computers were more likely to have higher reading levels than those who only read on screen, the study said. Although this gap did not apply to those children who used tablet computers or e-readers."
If the differences are melting away our perceptions are not changing as fast. Maybe there are other factors that affect our attitude to screen reading. A good summary of such factors is presented in an article by Ferris Jabr in Scientific American, The Reading Brain in the Digital Age: The Science of Paper versus Screens. One important aspect is the tactile aspects of a print book or magazine. We can feel the weight of the book, easily see how far we have progressed and can quickly flick the pages to see where the present chapter ends. We also have spatial aspects of print reading, remembering where we were in the book when something happened or remembering the layout of a particular page. Screen reading is often seen as putting a strain on the eyes and affecting concentration but new studies suggest that these problems occur when using a computer where scrolling and mouse clicks are necessary. The latest tablets reproduce the feeling of a print book much more realistically and few find reading a strain on such screens.
Another interesting factor is that maybe we treat screen content as somehow less "serious" than print and are not prepared to concentrate as hard. Digital content has lots of tempting links to check and your are likely to have other applications open at the same time leading to all the tempting distractions of social media and e-mail that I wrote about in last week's post.
Despite all this I still feel that reading is reading whatever the delivery medium. I'm sure you can read as deeply on a screen as you do in a print book but you have to make a conscious decision to concentrate. Digital reading can be distracting if you choose to keep the distractions active but the same is true with print. If you try to read a complex print book with the TV on, music in your headset or with friends or family in the same room your concentration will be equally impaired. Once again it's about focus. | <urn:uuid:68f4f72d-32db-4b6d-af1b-b87fb81631e5> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://acreelman.blogspot.com/2013/12/reading-on-paper-or-screen-whats.html | 2024-04-19T12:41:11Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817398.21/warc/CC-MAIN-20240419110125-20240419140125-00268.warc.gz | en | 0.973024 | 775 |

This Easy Sushi Bake is a great way to get your sushi fixing but at a fraction of the cost. It is completely customizable and can be made in advance before serving. Pair this recipe with all of your favorite sushi fixings and you’re in for a delicious meal!
The sushi bake has taken the internet by storm. I’m not entirely too sure where it first started, but after seeing it all over Tik Tok and Instagram, I had to jump on the trend.
This Easy Sushi Bake recipe is essentially a California roll deconstructed. This is the perfect recipe for those who aren’t super adventurous when it comes to sushi but can be customized to get that sushi fix for all my sushi lovers.
What I also love about this recipe is that it can be made in advance. I have recently been making it for friends and family, and all they have to do is pop it in the oven or air fryer. garnish it, and then serve. So it would make a great gift for someone who might not have the time to cook or needs to get a meal on the table with minimal effort.
WHAT YOU’LL NEED FOR THE EASY SUSHI BAKE:
- Sushi rice or a short grain rice
- Imitation crab meat and lump crab meat
- Japanese mayo
- Cream cheese
- Green onions
- Kosher salt
- Unagi Sauce (eel sauce)
- Furikake (rice seasoning)
HELPFUL TIPS AND TRICKS TO GET THE BEST EASY SUSHI BAKE:
- If you can’t find sushi rice, look for a short grained rice. They tend to be starchier and will give you the familiar sushi rice texture.
- You can do a combination of imitation crab meat and lump crab meat or you can do all imitation or all lump. You can also use other seafood like canned salmon or tuna.
- Customize this recipe to your liking. If you want it spicier, add more sriracha. Do you want it creamier? Add more cream cheese. Play around with it and see what you like!
- The masago is optional but it does add a nice texture to the sushi bake. I find mine at my local Asian market near the seafood.
- After the easy sushi baked is cooked, let it sit for 10 minutes so everything sets. If you dig right in, the rice and everything will fall apart.
- You can serve it as is, but I like mine with nori sheets, sliced cucumbers and avocado slices. I feel like this gives you the full California roll experience.
I hope you enjoy this Easy Sushi Bake as much as I do. If you make it, please tag me on Instagram so I can see your recreation!
Easy Sushi Bake (Air Fryer and Oven Options)
- 3 cups cooked sushi rice
- ¼ - ½ cup furikake seasoning
- 3 oz cream cheese
- ¼ cup basic mayo or Japanese mayo
- 2-4 tbsp sriracha
- ¼ tsp sugar
- ¼ tsp kosher salt
- 1 green onion finely sliced (more for garnish)
- 1 ½ cup chopped imitation crab meat
- 1 cup lump crab meat
- ¼ cup masago plus more for garnish
- ¼ cup unagi sauce
- nori sheets
- julienned cucumbers
- sliced avocado
Press sushi rice into an 8x8 or 9x9 baking dish or a dish that will fit your air fryer. Top the rice with furikake seasoning and set aside.
In a large bowl, add in the cream cheese, mayo, sriracha, sugar, and kosher salt. Mix until combined.
Next add in the green onions and mix until well combined.
Add the imitation crab meat, lump crab meat, and masago into the bowl. Gently fold into the cream cheese mixture until everything is coated.
Spread the crab mixture on top of the rice making sure it's an even layer. (see note if not baking right away)
Air fryer method: place dish into air fryer and air fry for 15 minutes at 375F or until the top is browned.
Oven method: place baking dish in a preheated 375 oven for 25 minutes or until the top is browned.
Once sushi bake is done, top with unagi sauce, and garnish with green onion slices and masago.
Serve with nori sheets, cucumbers, and avocado slices.
If you're not baking the sushi bake right away, top the rice with the crab mixture, cover the baking dish and refrigerate until ready. Baking time might be longer if not baking right away.

The line of cars to cross the border wasn't bad either, probably waited about 10 minutes. Here's what we did and where we ate during our 2 day trip in Vancouver, although I wish we had another 2 days to do more!
What we did:
1. Two hours atop Grouse Mountain (Expensive at $40/per person!) Makes more sense to go if you are a skier or snowboarder - which we are not! But, the tram ride up gave way to outstretched views of the city, waterways and Stanley Park. We visited the two resident bears that live there and that's about it. I’m disappointed we didn’t do a FREE outdoor activity instead at Lynn Canyon Park to walk the suspension bridge and take in some nature. But, it wasn’t MY birthday after all. Maybe next time! This was the only time we needed a car while in Vancouver.
It was a very warm and sunny day on the mountain and the snow was slushy. Doug was exhausted, hot and sweaty while trekking/carrying Mia through the snow to get to the Bear house.
2. Two hours at Granville Island Public Market (free) - We walked across town (literally) and over the Granville Bridge to get to the Public Market. We DO NOT recommend walking this bridge and we should’ve taken the bus! The Public Market full of fresh produce, artisan cheese, charcuterie, meats, fish and flowers makes me want to throw a dinner party! There are a lot of food vendors, so we enjoyed a banana Nutella crepe out on the dock. There was also a Kids Market full of useless retail aimed at children, but kept Mia busy hopping on and off the coin rides (which she doesn't know you put a coin in to make the ride go!)
3. Two hour bike ride around Stanley Park ($30 for all three of us) - Now that we knew not to walk back into the city from Granville Island, we took a bus back downtown to rent bikes from Stanley Park Cycle (cheaper than the more obvious store on the corner). For less than $30 for the three of us, we rented bikes to take a 2 hour leisurely cruise around Stanley Park’s Seawall. We stopped very frequently to take in the view of the modern city surrounded by water and mountains. I definitely enjoyed this activity more than the expensive mountain! Make sure you're going counterclockwise around the Seawall because at one point it becomes one way.
After our leisurely bike ride (unlike the one in Chicago), we walked along the water by Coal Harbor to get back to the hotel. The docked boats (and house boats!!) were surrounded by towering glass condos. But what I could not get enough of were the seaplanes that would frequently land and take off! Who’s in these little seaplanes and where are they going!?
What I wish we had 2 more days for: Whale watching and exploring Lynn Canyon Park.
Where we ate:
Dinner - Salmon House Since we still had the car, we drove up to West Vancouver. The ceiling to floor windows allowed us to sit back and relax while enjoying the sights of the water, city and trees. Given that our reservations were at 6pm when it wasn’t busy, our food came out very quickly. But once we were finished, it was very difficult to flag our waitress down and we waited a good 30 minutes for dessert to come out (you can even tell how long it was from the melted sorbet below!!). What started as a pleasant dinner turned into a 2 hour affair - which is long when you have a toddler in a different time zone! Mia ordered pasta off the kids menu. We started with the chili, lime, prawn and salmon spring rolls, Doug had the grilled seafood trio while I worked my way through half a Dungeness crab, lobster tail and scallops. All the food was good, but not amazing. However, the concorde chocolate cake with raspberry sorbet was delish.
Breakfasts - Thank you Pinnacle Marriott for the complimentary pastries, fruit and Starbucks coffee every morning!! Spending $0 on two light breakfasts let us indulge more at lunch and dinner.
Lunch - Edible Canada Bistro While at Granville Island, we had lunch at the conveniently located Edible Canada, a modern bistro featuring New Canadian cuisine. Mia ordered grilled cheese and fries from the kids menu and kept busy with their crayons and coloring sheet. Doug had the wild westcoast ling cod fish and chips - the best fish and chips he's ever had! It was so so light and not heavy like your typical fish and chips that we've had in the States. To continue our seafood tasting trip, I thoroughly enjoyed my mussels with housemade chorizo and duck fat fries. SUCH a good lunch!
Dinner - Guu on Robson Street Since we didn’t want to walk across town for dinner at Minami in Yaletown (didn't have a car anymore), we changed our reservations to an Izakaya (Japanese style tapas/small plates). Guu is very small, with sushi bar type seating, communal tables, cafe tables outside or traditional shoes off/tatami mats/low table intimate seating upstairs. The energy level in this restaurant is sky high with the servers yelling out orders throughout the restaurant and bumping music (but not annoying). Mia loved it. She felt like she was on stage and danced through 80% of dinner. She ate rice while we ate our way through yaki udon, kimchee udon, fried chicken wings, fried prawns, beef tataki and a pitcher of Sapporo. The beef tataki with plum dressing and wasabi mayo was melt in your mouth ah-mazing!
Where we stayed: Vancouver Marriott Pinnacle Downtown, less than $150/night thanks to kayak.com
After our mountain adventure complete with wet shoes, socks and pants, the familiar smell of the Marriott as I approached the lobby put me in a better mood. If you ask Mia, her favorite part of the trip was the hotel. With a corner room, entire wall of windows looking over the water, sea plane dock and mountains (see below), king bed and complimentary desserts for Doug’s birthday, I don't blame her. We love Marriott hotels! AND there was complimentary Starbucks coffee, pastries and fresh fruit every morning!
Saturday morning we walked to the Sky Train with all our luggage through the morning drizzle and headed back to the airport. Apparently they are on the honor system because no one checked for our transit tickets. Ohh Canada! At the YVR Airport, security and customs was a breeze, with no line for either and super friendly TSA agents. Then to our delight, there was a playground and TV area for kids to burn off energy before being confined on a plane. Yet another reason why we love Canada!
While waiting for our plane to arrive, Mia wanted to take pictures. Just like mommy! She did a good job didn't she?! (The pictures she captured are on the right, and the airplane.)
And that's our four day trip recap of what to do in Seattle and Vancouver with a toddler. Have you been to Vancouver? What did I miss? What was your favorite? Where should we go next year for our family vacation?? | <urn:uuid:d9baf5bd-b4c5-4e66-b9ef-4716a4598167> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://adaywithlilmama.blogspot.com/2013/05/two-days-in-vancouver-with-toddler.html | 2024-04-19T11:17:08Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817398.21/warc/CC-MAIN-20240419110125-20240419140125-00268.warc.gz | en | 0.968983 | 1,540 |

Santa came to our library for story hour this afternoon, Nathan was elated to say the least. He was so excited on the way there that he wouldn't stop talking. Which led to him and Nicholas bickering back and forth all the way.
Nathan: I'm telling Santa that you're a mean big brother, cause you won't help me.
Nicholas: I'm telling Santa that you're a bad boy cause you won't do anything by yourself.
Nathan: Well, I'm telling Santa not to get you any toys and bring them all to me.
Nicholas: Oh yeah well, I'm telling Santa not to give you any toys because you don't share.
And on and on and on......
Hey, even though I had to listen to it.....at least I wasn't going to be the one dealing with all that tattle telling Lol!
Nicholas didn't want to sit on Santa's lap, Santa had to talk him into it. I think this might just be the last year of him believing in Santa (sniff sniff)
I want a Puppy Pillow Pet for Christmas, Santa!
What's your name little boy?
Nicholas?? HoHoHoHo....that's my name too! Did you know that?
After we took pictures, they had story time for Nathan's group. They had a man playing a banjo and singing songs with the kids. Nathan loves this kind of stuff. He was jumping around and dancing...these are action shots and you can see if you look really closely that his feet aren't touching the ground, because he was jumping up and down.
After getting the kids all wound up, they had craft time.
Nathan made two. a reindeer and a snowman.
We finished them at home, after his bath (hence the wild hair look).
We also read the book How Santa Got His Job by Stephen Krensky. This was such a cute book, if your kids are still into Santa, you have to get this book.
Santa needs a job and tries his hand at many different ones...a chimney sweep (but he never gets dirty, so no one thinks he is doing his job right)....a zoo keeper (his favorite animal is the reindeer, of course)...a mail carrier (but he hates traffic, so he likes to deliver the packages at night). He finally meets some elves who invite him to stay with them, so he packs up his reindeer and the rest is history...as they say. Awesome Book! | <urn:uuid:0c95a239-9369-415d-a9db-28a6305332b6> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://adventures-in-mommy-land.blogspot.com/2010/12/im-telling-santa-on-you.html | 2024-04-19T12:08:29Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817398.21/warc/CC-MAIN-20240419110125-20240419140125-00268.warc.gz | en | 0.990161 | 531 |
Explainer: The Legalisation of Cannabis in Malta
25 January 2022
In December 2021 the Cannabis bill was approved in Maltese Parliament, making it the first EU country to allow small amounts of cannabis cultivation and possession for personal use. This being said, Malta has not yet fully legalised cannabis, however, it has furthered the decriminalisation process that began a few years ago. In 2015, the substance was depenalised for small amounts. Those persons caught with certain amounts of the substance had it confiscated and were made to appear before a tribunal where a fine could have been issued.
What the Bill Entails
In accordance with the new Responsible Use of Cannabis Act, those over 18 years of age can legally carry up to 7g of cannabis. Those caught carrying between 7g-28g will need to appear before a tribunal.
The above also applies to home cultivation of the plant, where each household is allowed to cultivate up to four plants, as long as these are not visible to the public. Those who do not wish to cultivate the plant can purchase the substance from cannabis associations.
Public smoking of cannabis will however remain illegal. Those caught can be fined up to €235, or €500 should a minor be present.
The Creation of Cannabis Associations in Malta
The new law has given rise to the possibility of cannabis associations to be formed in Malta. These clubs will need to be registered under an individual, as opposed to a company, and would need to run as non-profit organisations.
Clubs must be located a minimum of 250m away from schools or youth centres, cannot advertise their services, and cannot display cannabis visuals. Each club can have up to 500 members enrolled and each member is entitled to purchase up to a maximum of 7g cannabis per day and 50g per month. Members are also able to buy 20 seeds per month from the club. Memberships to the club are to remain anonymous.
To administer the cannabis sector a new regulatory authority, the Responsible Use of Cannabis Authority, has been established. An association will need to register with the Authority and file a report every three months.
Law Amendments Relating to the Bill
Following the President of Malta’s approval of the bill on the 18th of December 2021, Chapter 628 of the Laws of Malta was established- Authority on the Responsible Use of Cannabis Act. The Authority shall oversee and regulate the cultivation and possession of cannabis.
Chapter 628 also affected the following Maltese Laws:
- The Conduct Certificates Ordinance – those persons who possess a criminal record for cannabis possession can now apply for the removal of these records.
- The Dangerous Drugs Ordinance– a change in the definition of cannabis.
- The Commissioners for Justice Act– legal possession of cannabis has increased from 3g to 7g.
- The Drug Dependence Act– several amendments have been made including adults being able to possess 7g of cannabis; fines for smoking cannabis publicly and for smoking in the presence of minors; the allowance for each household to cultivate up to four plants; and the establishment of associations.
Medicinal and Research Licences
In accordance with the Production of Cannabis for Medicinal and Research Purposes Act (Chapter 578 of the Laws of Malta), an organisation that wishes to cultivate cannabis for medicinal and research purposes must apply for a licence.
The below rights and obligations apply:
- The licence holder may possess, cultivate, supply, export, sell, distribute, and destroy cannabis solely for medicinal/ research purposes.
- The licencee must employ a Qualified Person (QP) and must acquire the required import/export certification.
- For exportation purposes, the licencee must follow laws and permits of the destination country and must export the substance as a finished product.
- An EU-GMP certificate must be awarded for intermediary products relating to cannabis and operations must follow the EU-GMP.

In this official autobiography from four-time Olympic gold-winning and record-setting American gymnast Simone Biles, Simone shares how her faith, family, passion, and perseverance against tremendous odds helped make her one of the top athletes and record-breaking gymnasts in the world—now with 25 world championship medals.
Simone Biles’ entrance into the world of gymnastics may have started on a daycare field trip in her hometown of Spring, Texas, but her God-given talent, along with drive to succeed no matter the obstacle, are what brought her to the national spotlight during the Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro and have catapulted her ever since—including becoming the first gymnast in competition to land a double-twisting somersault on beam and the first woman to land a triple double on floor.
But there is more to Simone than the medals—nineteen of them world championship gold. Through years of hard work and determination, she has relied on her faith and family to stay focused and positive, while having fun competing at the highest level and doing what she loves. Here, in her own words, Simone takes you through the events, challenges, and trials that carried her from an early childhood in foster care to a coveted spot on the U.S. Olympic team.
Along the way, Simone shares the details of her inspiring personal story—one filled with the kinds of daily acts of courage that led her, and can lead you, to even the most unlikely of dreams.
Courage to Soar:
- is the only book that presents Simone Biles’ true story from her perspective
- contains an eight-page, full-color photo insert
- is an inspirational story for fans of gymnastics and anyone pushing to overcome the odds

The site is not entirely dedicated to western men willing to meet Albanian brides. You can meet Albanian girls for marriage, but you can also find profiles of brides from Eastern Europe. As you might already know, Albania is a Southern European country, that’s why brides from Albania are using this site. The platform stands out since the developers created a quality product that pays attention to people’s personalities. You will be impressed by the detailed profiles of Albanian brides who you will find on the platform.
Relationships and Love
So what is it that makes Albanian singles the perfect dates? Online dating is one of the most efficient, simple, and working ways to find your true soulmate anywhere in the world. If you are attracted by welcoming and warm Albanian nature, nothing should stop you from finding love. Albanian men are very fond of sports, it will always be an important part of their lives and an extensive topic of conversation from the very beginning of online and offline dating. However, if you know nothing about sport at all, that’s okay. An Albanian man will gladly enlighten you in this matter and even for your first date he may not choose a cafe or a walk in the park, but a stadium or any sort of outside activity.
Multiple bus terminals in the city also connect all the major spots of the city. Being a popular tourist destination and the capital of Albania, Tirana has excellent connectivity by air to various cities in Europe. Tirana is also connected to all the major cities and areas in Albania and is easily reachable.

There are no set “rules” for how Albanian girls flirt. Albanians are generally quite conservative when it comes to sex, so don’t expect to get lucky on the first date. Albania is a country with a very diverse religious and political landscape, so it’s best to avoid controversial topics like these on a first date.
Therefore, most of the women, usually adults are friendly and liberal. Mature women in Tirana who are housewives can be conservative, but those who are working professionals are open-minded. Upbringing is, however, an issue with Albanian women that make them conservative and reserved. Virginity is a big deal in Albania and a girl who has lost her virginity before marriage has to face a lot of hate and defamation from her family and society. This stereotype is a huge deal in Tirana and can act as a potential barrier for you in picking up girls. However, this barrier is possible to overcome if you follow some tricks while approaching and picking up local girls in Tirana.
Even when local girls grow up in a happy family, they are still taught that they need to be able to support themselves. Online dating is one of the fastest and the most reliable way to find girls to hookup with. Online dating is popular in Tirana, with most of the young, and mature women using these platforms.
Your success during the day depends a lot on the type of girls you meet and how you approach them. You will seldom find a local naughty woman who will hookup with you on your first meet itself. You have to convince her that everything happening between you will be secret and confidential. Visiting tourist places can be more rewarding as tourist girls are easy to interact and pick up. At AlbanianPersonals we screen every profile by hand and have been serving the Albanian dating community for 18 years.
Therefore, it is common for families to be involved in the matchmaking process. If you are dating an Albanian, you will need to get to know their family and show them respect. You will also need to be aware that their family’s opinion of you can make or break your relationship. The site is respectable and decent, owners are regularly implementing safety measures that prevent hackers and scammers to affect users. The registration process is free, but there are even better news – the platform is free to use as well.
Over 8 Million Connections made on
Albanian mail order bride sites grant you the opportunity to meet an Albanian bride who matches your personality and has similar views on life. You can start using Tinder, but there will be too many unsuccessful attempts. You need to find a website for marriages, not for hookups, and Tinder have the reputation of finding the latter. Marriage agency and dating sites for marriage have a similar approach, but usually, you have to visit a marriage agency.
Over 80% of its users are between 20 and 26 years old, so its user base is pretty similar to that of Tinder and similar popular dating apps. Almost 70% of its users are looking for a serious relationship and their userbase https://loveexamined.net/ is a bit older than on other online dating sites. We Albanians live everywhere–and where ever we are you know we’re there. But it’s not always easy to connect with one another in this fast paced world we live in. | <urn:uuid:bb327088-99e3-47b9-982a-024aebea1c0c> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://afuturatelas.com/2023/04/19/albanian-dating-site-free-online-dating-in-albania/ | 2024-04-19T11:49:11Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817398.21/warc/CC-MAIN-20240419110125-20240419140125-00268.warc.gz | en | 0.961874 | 1,041 |

I know that being a pilot has a lot of responsibilities not only to themselves but also the souls behind him while in the air. One of the main elements of being responsible as a pilot is to be healthy, however, due to the nature of the career, pilots can have an irregular schedule thus affecting his/her resting period and so on. So I have a few questions regarding how do you maintain your health.
Does staying in the air for a substantial amount of time actually affect your health?
Since a sufficient amount of sleep is a priority for pilots, how do pilots adjust to different time zones to get better sleep?
How do pilots stay in “pilot shape”, do they discipline themselves physically or psychologically in order to get ready for the amount of work that is required from a pilot?
Really good questions and yes health is essential to your career as a pilot. Not only are you required to maintain a First Class medical which at means an exam every 6 mos at my age (12mos if you’re under 40), it’s also a responsibility as you may have 300+ people counting on you not to keel over. So let’s go…
Yes. There have been many studies done on the effects of extended periods of time spent at altitude. Increased exposure to UV rays, breathing dry air and simply not moving for 6+ hrs at a time are things that just aren’t good for the human body. That’s said there are mitigations. It’s very important to stay hydrated and most pilots consume large amounts of fluids throughout the flight (or should). Many either bring sunshades for the windows or apply sunblock to help with the rays. Finally it’s important to get up and at least walk around some. Fortunately most larger aircraft have cockpits large enough for you to get up and stretch etc. All good practices.
Pilots have many strategies for dealing with time zones. Some take melatonin, some try and stay up and acclimate to the new zone. There are many. Personally I just listen to my body and when I’m tired I sleep. Fortunately on the long haul flights (where we require an augmented crew) we actually have bunks where you can actually get some good rest.
“Pilot shape” is a relative term. If you look around the airport I sure you’ll see a variety of pilots in a variety of shapes (from fit to obese). Again it’s up to the individual. It can be challenging sometimes particularly when it comes to meals and working out but it’s really important if you want to keep flying till 65. With some discipline and creativity it’s generally not that bad.
Thanks Adam, some great insights there!
I’d like to ask what happens when a pilot, who has had a long and successful career, suddenly discovers he’s seriously ill. Here’s the scenario, and I’m throwing out all the details I know because I don’t know what’s relevant:
Captain for a major airline, age 59, degree in aviation, flying longer than he’s been driving, decent seniority though not as good as it should be due to mergers, has recently been diagnosed with follicular lymphoma (a type of non-Hogkins lymphoma).
Follicular lymphoma, as I understand it, is chronic but it responds well to treatment, if it’s treated initially at all. Doctors may choose a watch-and-wait approach at the start. If chemo and/or radiation is warranted, this type of cancer goes into remission and could very likely stay that way for years. Eventually, though, it does return, at which point it can be treated again. Of course, at that point you’re balancing the cancer vs. the toxicity of the treatments.
I realize you all aren’t AMEs and can only answer very generally, but as pilots who may one day be confronted with something like this, what does a diagnosis like this mean to you? Is it career-ending? My time spent lurking here has taught me enough that I wince at that aviation degree now.
Thank you so much for listening.
These questions are really outside of our wheel house and would need to be addressed to a medical examiner.
I totally understand. I’m just not in this profession at all and thought maybe you could give me some insight. I don’t want you to step outside your purview, though. Thanks anyway.
I would assume that his first class medical would be pulled, but if he still has a current CFI he could still instruct anyone who can act as PIC, i.e. instrument (if CFII)/commercial students, flight reviews, IPCs, etc. even without a medical.
Thanks for your response, Tristan. I did suggest that as a possible alternative, and my friend looked at me in shock. I didn’t understand why because I’m a teacher, and I happen to think that instructing is a valuable and honorable vocation. Then he said that in this profession, one becomes an instructor right out of flight school. I didn’t understand that either as it seemed counter-intuitive. I figured the seasoned pilots would be the instructors, not the newbies. I’ve come to understand the system a lot better reading around the discussions here. I guess, to him, it seems like a loss of everything he’s gained.
As Chris said none of us are AMEs but I have been doing this a while and sadly know more than a few pilots who’ve gotten sick. You give some pretty specific info my answer will be much more generic. In short if there’s ever ANY question as to the pilot’s “fitness to fly” that pilot will not be. That can pertain to the illness and/or the effects of treatment and meds. In most cases the pilot will lose their medical and depending on the airline and the pilot’s own planning, the pilot will go on some sort of sick leave, VEBA, etc. That of course is based on the premise there’s a chance they can recover and get there medical back. If not then they’re probably going to take an early retirement or find some other job in aviation. If however there is a chance of recovery and they do, they’re welcome to reapply and with sufficient support from their physicians, can get their medical back and return to flying.
Again this is very generic but hopefully gives you some insight.
Thank you, Adam. A generic response, yes, but still very helpful; I really appreciate your taking the time to respond.
Something I’ve been generally wondering:
What happens to a pilot’s seniority if they have to take a year or so off for medical treatment? Where are they when (hopefully) they’re ready to come back? Is their place in the seniority line more or less where it was when they left, or have they lost ground as working pilots surpass them and will therefore have less attractive schedules, etc?
Different airlines rules may vary but the short answer is pilots out on medical retain their seniority. There may be some point (after years perhaps) they stay getting bypassed but that’s rare.
I have been out on medical leave a few times over the years, my seniority continues right along the same lines as if I were there. A seniority number is sacred at the airlines, nothing can change one’s order on the list.
Great to know. Thanks, Chris!
Hi Chris (and anyone else), following up on your reply, another question occurs to me:
If a pilot is out on an extended medical leave, is there a point at which the FAA (or the pilot’s airline) requires retraining or a refresher of some kind? If so, where is that point? After a six-month leave? A year? Longer? Or is that sort of thing left up to the individual pilot as they feel the need? Based on what I’ve heard Adam say about a pilot’s fitness to fly being paramount, I’m guessing it’s probably not left up to the individual to determine, but how then is that fitness assessed? The docs can sign off on the physical readiness, but what about the skills?
First and foremost all airline pilots must remain “current” which means a minimum of 3 takeoffs and landings within the last 90 days. Beyond that it really depends on the airline’s arrangement with the FAA.
Most airlines require recurrent training every 12mos but some are on a 9mos cycle. Regardless if you’re still legal within the prescribed cycle then you’re good, if not you’ll simply require recurrent. Beyond that you will require requal training.
Ninety days. After that a pilot will need to go back to the simulator for more practice landings. After six months it becomes a bit longer and after twelve months, that pilot will require full retraining.
Sorry, did you mean to type “two months” at the end? At what point is full retraining required? And does that mean going through the whole ATP (or equivalent) program again?
I’m not sure what Chris meant but no a pilot never has to go through all their training due to an illness or lapse of currency. If however a pilot has a VERY bad day at work by doing something reckless/negligent, or maybe attempts to operate “under the influence”, the FAA can strip them off their licenses in which case they would have to try and get them restored by going through all their training.
Pilot licenses and ratings are good for life. Again it’s a matter of currency and the amount of retraining required due to letting it lapse. | <urn:uuid:c8ea522b-07a6-477c-80d6-1d6e8a35fd6c> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://airlinepilot.life/t/health-of-a-pilot/1593 | 2024-04-19T11:34:11Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817398.21/warc/CC-MAIN-20240419110125-20240419140125-00268.warc.gz | en | 0.967333 | 2,087 |

Welcome to Al Fereej Consultancy & Design, a leading consultancy and design firm that provides innovative and comprehensive solutions to a wide range of clients. Our company was founded on the principles of excellence, integrity, and innovation, and we are committed to providing our clients with the highest level of service and expertise.
At Al Fereej Consultancy & Design, we specialize in providing a wide range of services to meet the unique needs of our clients. From architectural design and project management to engineering and construction supervision, our team of experts is dedicated to delivering exceptional results.
When I first established AL Fereej Consultancy & Design in 1998, my goal was to become a leading service provider in the architectural sector. Drawing upon my family’s extensive experience in the construction industry, I aimed to address the gap created by the lack of local Qatari designers who possess a deep understanding of our culture and traditions.
To me, architecture is more than just physical structures; it is the backdrop against which life unfolds. Its essence can range from vibrant and flamboyant to subtle and refined, depending on the aspirations of the individuals inhabiting and surrounding those structures.
I have carefully assembled a team of like-minded designers who share my passion for our craft and uphold the uncompromising principles that form the core of my values. Together, we have evolved into a multi-disciplinary Grade-A consultancy practice dedicated to generating innovative ideas and solving problems, drawing inspiration from the diverse cultural environment within our atelier. Our meticulous attention to detail has long been our trademark, and we constantly strive to deliver high-quality services that align with our client’s schedules and budgets.
With the blessings of God, we will continue to flourish and make valuable contributions to the thriving Qatari economy and society, eagerly anticipating a bright future for our beloved country. | <urn:uuid:31cd9f89-8f47-4849-8e6c-cd7682b77149> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://alfereejcd.com/about-us/ | 2024-04-19T11:03:42Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817398.21/warc/CC-MAIN-20240419110125-20240419140125-00268.warc.gz | en | 0.936468 | 373 |
Which Of JMB's Classic Guns To Get?
The question? Browning Hi Power vs 1911. The answer? That would be BOTH! Why settle for one when you can two for the price...of, um, two. Because both of these guns are awesome.
You actually need to decide between them? Oh, fine. We'll go over the finer points of both pistols, and in fairness there are a few things to be aware of that may make one a better choice than the other. In either case, the end result is a pistol with some serious pedigree. Be aware, though, that if you're going to concealed carry a BHP or a 1911, you're making a commitment.
Browning Hi Power: The First Of The Wonder Nines
The Browning Hi Power is one, among many, of the classic guns designed by John Moses Browning. He didn't actually complete it, dying of a heart attack halfway through the project. The remainder of the work was done by Dieudonne Saive, who had already invented a staggered magazine for the pistol - the first double-stack. As the design specs called for chambering the 9mm round, the BHP is therefore the first of the "Wonder Nines."
The Hi-Power is or was the duty handgun for the military and police forces of nearly 70 countries worldwide, including Canada, the United Kingdom, Australia and many more. Civilian shooters have enjoyed carrying and shooting them as well. The BHP is reliable, accurate, and has outstanding ergonomics.
The Hi-Power retains a lot of 1911 DNA, with a hammer-fired single-action operation (actually Saive's idea; Browning started with a striker-fired design) and a frame-mounted manual safety that only engages when the hammer is cocked. Thus, it's best carried cocked and locked. There is also a magazine disconnect safety. It also features a hinged trigger rather than the straight-travel trigger of the 1911. The barrel also deviates from the 1911, as it uses a falling-block design rather than a tilting link barrel.
The Hi-Power is a dyed-in-the-wool service pistol, with a 4.625-inch barrel, standing 5.02 inches tall, 7.75 inches long and 1.4 inches wide at the controls. However, the slide is 0.9 inches wide, making it one of the easier full-size, high-capacity pistols to carry in an IWB holster. It carries 13+1 of 9mm, and weighs in around 32 ounces unloaded.
Sights depend on the model. Older models have iron sights; recent models have modern three-dots.
However, pedigree costs. The Hi Power has just been discontinued as of this writing, but the base model starts at $1100.
The Mighty 1911
The 1911...well, just sort of speaks for itself. JMB designed it for the US armed forces, who issued it for 80 years as a primary sidearm until it was replaced by the Beretta M9. Today, certain units still issue it. It is one of the most popular pistols on the market today.
Ever want to see a Glock fanboy lose their mind? Mention a 1911. Drives them nuts!
The base model, called the Government frame, features a 5-inch barrel, standing 8.5 inches long, 5.5 inches tall and usually 1.2 inches wide at the controls but about 0.9 inches at the slide, which makes it popular for IWB carry just like the BHP.
Carry weight varies by manufacturer and materials used, but 40 ounces unloaded is typical. Carrying capacity is typically 7+1 of .45 ACP, but plenty of 8+1 magazines are out there. Sights can be simple iron sights, three-dot, night sights, competition sights...it all depends on who you get it from.
However, here's where things get interesting. The 1911 platform has evolved beyond the basic gun, as multiple frame sizes, frame configurations and chamberings are out there. Commander frames with 4.25-inch and 4-inch barrels, Officer frames with 3-inch to 3.625-inch barrels and shorter grips (4.5 to 5 inches in height) with reductions in capacity to match are available. Alternate chamberings include 9mm and .40 S&W among the other popular carry calibers, ¾-size guns in .380, and uber-powerful versions in .38 Super, .460 Rowland, .45 Super and, of course, the mighty 10mm Auto.
Railed and non-railed guns, double-stack magazine modifications...the sky is kind of the limit with 1911s. It all depends on what you want and what you're willing to spend. Imported GI-spec Government frames can be had for as little as $300, and handmade bespoke pistols can be had from anywhere from $3,000 to Cabot guns costing in excess of $1 million.
Hi-Power Vs. 1911: Depends On What You Want
If choosing between the Browning Hi Power vs 1911...it kind of depends on what you want. If you prefer the Hi-Power, you know that you prefer the Hi-Power. You like a classic gun, but you want high capacity and in 9mm.
You probably also don't mind spending a bit to get what you want, because Hi Powers don't tend to come cheap though some bargains can be found on the used market. The base model gun is also lighter than the typical Gov't frame.
However, that may not be an issue because the 1911 isn't just the 5-inch model; there are Commander and Officer frames, even the micro 1911 pistols like the Sig P238 or P938, Colt Mustang and so on.
Really, if you lean more toward the 1911, the world is kind of your oyster. The diversity of the platform is pretty well established, so there's a variant of the gun for just about everyone. The 1911 can really be all things to all men...unless what you absolutely want is a Glock 19 or some other bit of tactical tupperware. It just depends on what features you're looking for and how much you're willing to spend. Want a rail for a light or laser? They got 'em. Target sights? Drop a set on or find a factory model with them. Prefer a bit more zip than 9mm? Get you some .38 Super or 10mm. Prefer an actual compact? CCO Commanders and Officer frames abound.
And so on and so forth; the platform's diversity is astounding.
There are a few bits to know about though, which may tilt you toward the 1911 vs Hi Power, or Browning Hi Power vs 1911 as the case may be.
The 1911 has a longer backstrap, as the grip safety extends further out than that of the Hi-Power. This lets you get a good grip, both high and tight. It also keeps you from suffering hammer bite, which the Hi Power is known for.
Vintage models of both are known to not digest hollow points very well, so a new barrel may be called for should you get an older model of either.
The Hi-Power also comes with a magazine safety, which some people don't care for. (It can be removed if desired.) The trigger pull is also a touch on the heavy side (because of the magazine safety) for a single-action gun, usually around 7 pounds.The 1911, on the other hand, usually - it depends on who makes it - has a crisp, clean, light trigger break around 5 pounds.
The 1911 will also be easier to modify with a greater selection of aftermarket parts for upgrades, in case you're looking to get a project gun. Not that the BHP can't be modified, but the 1911 can be modified more.
Also, you'll want to handle and shoot both. If you find one is easier for you to operate, point, shoot and hit with...that's the one you should get. The on-paper specs only tell you so much.

I often hate making decisions. At work, I have no problem making on-the-spot calls and being quickly decisive. We function on a constant deadline, after all.
But in my own life? I can be very indecisive. I over-think things and analyze them and go back and forth about the most ridiculous issues.
Like yesterday, right around 5:15 pm, when I sat at my desk seriously weighing the pros and cons of whether or not I should go take a yoga class.
Major life decision? Not even a little bit. And yet I went back and forth about it a million times. The class didn’t start until 6:15, and if I went it meant I wouldn’t get home until 7:40, and I had a lot to do and I could really use that hour to be more productive…but I also wanted a good stretch and I haven’t been to a yoga class in roughly 19 years, and ohmyAliwhocares???
Verdict: I went to yoga. And I’m glad I did.
So this morning I was thinking a lot about some of the decisions I’ve made lately, and I’m happy to say that I’ve made some good ones. For once.
Good decision: Going to yoga last night. Hey fun fact, training for a marathon will strip you of any flexibility you ever thought you had. It’s hilarious to me that I was a dancer for 18 years because last night I could hardly touch my toes, let alone get into a split. But it felt really good to do some stretching and to zone out. And I held crow pose for 10 seconds!
Good decision: Eating better all week. As you may know, I’ve been battling what seems like a never-ending Crohn’s flare-up since a few weeks after the marathon. It hasn’t been fun. During most of this time, I have also been eating a lot of crap. Crap = food that is delicious but not necessarily helpful in the “feel better soon” department.
I was slacking on the fruits and vegetables and nutritious stuff, and most of my meals were cheese-based. That’s a smart no-Crohn’s strategy, Ali. Good thinking.
When Brian suggested I look into the Alkaline Diet, I considered punching him in the throat. Anything with the word “Diet” in it doesn’t appeal to me. Take away my brownies and I’ll take away your air.
The thought of a chocolate-free life makes me angry, clearly. I’m sorry.
He told me that he’d done some research about Crohn’s when we started dating (Who is this kid?) and that there were a lot of studies indicating that following an Alkaline Diet — which is all about balancing Alkaline and acid-based foods — has really helped a lot of people with the disease.
My initial reaction was, “No way.” But then — good decision time — I actually thought about why I was saying no so instinctively. I didn’t want to be deprived of the foods I love: the trail mixes (90% M&Ms, 10% cereal/almonds/peanuts/raisins), the desserts, the delicious giant pasta bowls. But I do want to feel better. I’m tired of being sick, and I hate relying on tons of medicine in order to get healthy. So I told Brian that if he was willing to help (i.e. cook all my meals for me) and if we could do it together, I’d try it out for 10 days.
We kicked off this little experiment on Monday, and I’m happy to say that after five days I feel really good. My stomach isn’t fixed, that’s for sure, but I appreciate that I’ve eaten more fruits, vegetables and nutrient-filled foods in the past few days than I normally do in a month. Last night I even helped cook!
This isn’t something I plan to stick with for very long because it is pretty restricting, and if eating 16 Handles means my stomach will hurt, that’s a price I’m sometimes willing to pay. But I’m glad I’m being open-minded and giving it a shot. And I’m eating lots of good stuff in the process!
The ultimate goal is to keep this going for five more days and then see how I feel. Stay tuned.
Good decision: Not running at 4:30 am. Last night I started stressing over when I was going to do my long run this weekend. Tomorrow I’m volunteering at the New York City Marathon Expo starting at 7:30 am, and then I’ll be playing with two fantastic friends all afternoon. Sunday is the marathon, and I’m taking spectating pretty seriously this year.
My goal, even though I have no real training plan right now, was to get in an 11-miler this weekend. So last night before bed, I set my alarm for 4:30 am, thinking I’d bang out 11 miles before work. But when my alarm went off, I was like, “Oh Hell no.” I just didn’t want to get up. That hour is insane. I don’t need to run 11 miles that badly. So I slept another hour, ran 6 surprisingly fast miles instead, and felt great.
I’d still like to get in a long run at some point this weekend if it works out, but today’s good decision was acknowledging that an extra hour of sleep is more important than running sometimes. Sometimes.
Also, Central Park is incredible right now. The energy is insane.
NYC Marathon runners, you are so lucky.
Good decision: Giving up on watching TV shows I no longer enjoy. Sorry, “Glee.” You were fun, but I’m over you. “The Office?” Not loving it this season. “Sister Wives?” Well. Yeah. Not sure why I got into that one in the first place. I’ve never been a huge TV person, but I did spend time watching shows I only half-liked. Now I have some more free time and don’t feel stressed by a too-full DVR. Big problem, right?
Another good decision? RSVPing yes to lunch with Apolo Ohno today. More on that later. I already told Brian that I’m going to try to kiss him on the cheek, and he said that’s OK. He understands.
YOUR TURN! What’s one good decision you’ve made this week? | <urn:uuid:0f568f7c-987c-42e5-a0b6-84edcbb77c11> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://aliontherunblog.com/2011/11/04/making-good-decisions/ | 2024-04-19T11:31:54Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817398.21/warc/CC-MAIN-20240419110125-20240419140125-00268.warc.gz | en | 0.968255 | 1,448 |

In 2021, a NV law was enacted that requires all county and city clerks to send every active registered voter a mail ballot before a primary or general election. Though a massive win for NV voters, for this benefit to truly reach every NV voter, election officials must offer ballots and voting materials in the languages that Nevadans actually read and speak.
In April of this year, All Voting is Local Nevada released Ballots for All: Improving Language Access for Nevada Voters in English and Spanish. In partnership with groups who serve Nevada’s diverse language communities, All Voting is Local Nevada studied geographic and census data to identify populations with significant need of translated ballots and materials. We found that more counties should be voluntarily serving the number of communities in Nevada who speak Spanish, Tagalog, Mandarin, Vietnamese, Korean, Thai, and Amharic. | <urn:uuid:db536dde-36be-4108-9041-5776b2cf5412> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://allvotingislocal.org/reports/ballots-for-all-improving-language-access-for-nevada-voters/ | 2024-04-19T12:13:33Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817398.21/warc/CC-MAIN-20240419110125-20240419140125-00268.warc.gz | en | 0.950052 | 170 |
The year that festivals were finally back on, allowing tens of thousands of people to enjoy live music and art. The year we developed new clients, and the year that allowed ALTER to create tons of successful media and influencer campaigns.
Jeddah Yacht Club was a new client in 2022, and we did some incredible work together as they build towards their full opening of a new iconic club and marina that will open up the Red Sea to tourism and local water sports enthusiasts.
We created a new brand identity for Jeddah Yacht Club that was modern, inspiring and forward-thinking – in keeping with the Kingdom’s drive into the future. We produced banks of imagery of the Club during Jeddah Season. We implemented a creative campaign throughout an inspiring new Boat Show including all marketing collateral, event branding and way-signs. We designed a head-turning boat branding campaign for Jeddah 01 and Jeddah 02 the Open 60 yachts used to inspire Saudis to give yachting a trial. We ran an international PR campaign to launch Jeddah Yacht Club at the time of the Jeddah Grand Prix with media partnerships and promotions designed to introduce Jeddah as a new sailing destination and an opportunity for boat owners to extend the traditional Mediterranean season.
Further in the year, Jeddah Yacht Club tasked us to design a new website within eight weeks from design, build and go-live, ensuring it was ready for their exhibition at the Monaco Yacht Show. We delivered a fully responsive desktop and mobile website for Jeddah Yacht Club in English and Arabic; it was an exciting digital challenge to take on, and we’re thrilled with what we created.
We continued to support the global consumer electronics business, TCL. One of the best things about working with TCL is the absolute commitment to a fantastic Brand Mission: To democratise technology for all. The launch of the TCL 30 Series was a great example of that, with a wide range of incredibly affordable devices, packed with premium features. We worked with influencers, brand partners, business bodies and more. Whether it be the stands in Motherwell’s Fir Park, or some of the world’s most famous footballers, we worked hard to ensure the UK heard about and appreciated this release. With CES 2023 already promising the TCL 40 Series, we’re excited to see what we can do together this year!
There was endless global coverage from TCL’s partnership with BAFTA and the A Life In Pictures programme, which saw appearances from Baz Luhrmann, Margot Robbie and the incredible Kate Hudson. 2022 also allowed TCL to showcase their home set-up at CCS Insight, showing their full portfolio of smart home products, that are all incredibly affordable.
During the World Cup, we were lucky enough to work with the great Hashtag United and hosted a home viewing event with @spenfc and @tobyamoraleon which generated over 300,000 impressions.
In the sunny months of the year, we enjoyed working onsite in Ireland with our client Bacardi, delivering groundbreaking festival activations at St. Annes Series, Longitude and Electric Picnic. The ALTER team brought these festivals alive with their extensive know-how and creativity.
Throughout the year, we organised multiple great activations in pubs and restaurants across the country with Victoria Malaga beer. We invited guests and influencers to try their Spanish beer, which was paired with delicious paella, Spanish themed entertainment and a lot of dancing! We generated a huge buzz on socials, introducing the wider public to Cerveza Victoria beer and the history of the brand!
We were excited to host a summer solstice party for Havaianas with over 200 press and influencers attending the event held at The Nest in central London. The evening was a success with over 450 social posts and a reach of nearly 12 million!
ALTER had an amazing 2022. And we are now busy crafting new campaigns for 2023 throughout the UK, Ireland and Saudi Arabia. | <urn:uuid:eabc13a7-d0d0-47ba-9ddc-d37e3868da69> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://alter-agency.com/2022-agency-round-up/ | 2024-04-19T12:59:53Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817398.21/warc/CC-MAIN-20240419110125-20240419140125-00268.warc.gz | en | 0.957071 | 839 |

With the rise of online casinos, there are now a plethora of games and features to choose from. There’s one thing you won’t find in an online casino though: people!
Online gambling has become all the rage in recent years, with many players enjoying it as a way to escape their everyday lives for a bit while they enjoy some good luck at the tables. You can play any time of day or night, so long as you have access to your computer or smart phone.
With this kind of convenience comes plenty of variety – you’ll never be bored with all the different kinds of games available.
Below we’ve listed few types that may not be found on land-based casinos but are sure to make your online gambling experience a good one
Let’s have a look:
– Video Poker – There are many versions of poker, but video poker is the only type that can be played online. In this game you’re dealt five cards and have to make your hand by choosing which ones to keep or discard until there are two left in front of you.
Plenty of people enjoy playing “Jacks or Better” with this game because it’s easy enough for beginners while also giving more experienced players something new to try out as well!
– Roulette – This casino variant has been around since 1738 when French mathematician Blaise Pascal invented it. It remains popular today thanks to its simplicity and relatively low house edge (most other games have an average house edge between 0.05% and 0.38%).
You might not be able to play roulette at a land-based casino, but online versions are available 24/seven! It’s perfect for players who want something simple without the hassle of getting on an airplane or spending hours navigating traffic in order to get there.
Plus you can chat with other people while playing – some even post results so that others can weigh in on their strategy!
– Keno – Perhaps one of the most popular games offered by many casinos around the world is keno, which was invented centuries ago as well (and has been traced back to ancient China).
It remains today largely unchanged from what it once was: this game involves picking numbers out of 90 total possible options and waiting for those numbers to come up in the game.
No one knows exactly when keno was first played, but what’s certain is that players from all over have been enjoying this simple and exciting game!
It came about thanks to people looking for a way to keep themselves entertained while they were at casinos – it even became so popular as an online casino option that some sites offer other games with different themes alongside it (such as slots).
– Sic Bo – This fast-paced dice game has roots in ancient China, where gambling originated during the time of Confucius.
There are many versions of sic bo known throughout Asia today, though most share similar rules: you wager on how much money will be won or lost based on the outcome of three dice.

Prospecting. Cold calling. Interrupting. However you describe it, most sales professionals don’t love it. In fact, they’ll usually find a way to avoid it. When we avoid it, we don’t feel the pain right away – the pain shows up a quarter or two later, when our pipeline is empty.
In professional services, this is felt even more. It’s harder than ever to break through the noise and make the right connections. (Why? Read my past articles on trends caused by the new sales economy.)
But there are some tactics you can undertake to accelerate your sales pipeline with strategic prospecting.
In my new guest blog post on the CloserIQ blog, I deliver four strategies for accelerating your sales results over the next 90 days. You’ll learn how can you uncover opportunities with your loyal clients, and also open the door with new prospects.

WELCOME TO THE WORLD OF ANGELO CATALDI
Famed radio personality and Philadelphia sports legend, Cataldi began his career in Philly as a sports journalist for the Philadelphia Inquirer in 1983. From there, he settled into his role as a radio host at 94.1 WIP for 33 remarkable years.
The TV Show
The TV Show is a weekly podcast hosted by Jay Black, with regular guests Angelo Cataldi and Rhea Hughes. Each week, we dive into the new Golden Age of Television, with a discussion of the latest shows and news.
LOUD by Angelo Cataldi (Personalized Copy)
Price includes Shipping & Handling
For over three decades, Angelo Cataldi was the on-air voice of Philadelphia sports fans, leading the charge with unabashed zeal and infectious energy. He was the maestro of the mania, the conductor of the symphony of vitriol that blared through car radios every morning in the most misunderstood yet passionate sports city in America.
It made him his share of enemies, but he walked away from the microphone with enough stories for several lifetimes—or one jam-packed, lively memoir.
LOUD is an exuberant chronicle of Cataldi’s life, from his childhood as a self-described “king nerd” in Providence, Rhode Island, to the traditional newspaper career he left behind, and his eventual rise to the top of the Philadelphia sports radio scene on WIP.
Through it all, Cataldi remained dedicated to his mission of talking about what the city was talking about, in the same tone. And that tone was loud, passionate, and unapologetically real.
Full of encounters with athletes, personalities, and power brokers as well as candid reflections, LOUD is a must-read for die-hard Philadelphia sports fan and anyone who appreciates a good story.
After more than three decades speaking into the ears of so many Philadelphia sports fans, I know I was asking a lot when I offered a book of my experiences, LOUD, late in 2023. Many people I met on the book tour asked if I would ever be communicating with them the old way, by talking to them. Yes, I will. In fact, we have an audiobook available right now with me telling my story over 10 emotional, entertaining hours. If you are not an avid book reader, check out LOUD in audio form now, with these links. And thanks for your incredible loyalty after all these years. | <urn:uuid:f26eff86-0b69-4931-802a-3cd2844ed8eb> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://angelocataldi.com/ | 2024-04-19T13:23:37Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817398.21/warc/CC-MAIN-20240419110125-20240419140125-00268.warc.gz | en | 0.965807 | 548 |
Raising dogs, in particular taking care of the sarplaninac, is a specialty of humans. Experts speculate that dogs were first domesticated between twelve thousand and twenty five thousand years ago—and that all dogs evolved from the wolf. Since then, humans have selectively bred more than 400 different breeds, ranging in size from four-pound teacup poodles all the way up to Irish wolfhounds, whose 3-foot stature earns them the title of the tallest canine. However, the most widespread canines are the non-pedigree dogs—the one-of-a-kind dogs known as mixed-breeds. The sarplaninac is also a popular choice among dog owners. Some owners are unaware, however, of some critical sarplaninac care tips.
Health care cost for the sarplaninac
The yearly budget for caring for your sarplaninac—which includes everything from meals and snacks, veterinary care, toys and license—could range between $420 and seven hundred eighty dollars. This doesn’t even count capital expenses for sterilization procedures, collar and leash, carrier and dog crate. Tip: Make sure you have all of your items before bringing your sarplaninac home for the first time.
General sarplaninac Care
How To Feed the sarplaninac
- sarplaninac puppies between eight and 12 weeks old need four bowls of food in a day.
- sarplaninac puppies 3 to 6 months old should be fed three meals in a day.
- Feed puppies six months to one year old 2 meals daily.
- When the sarplaninac makes her first birthday, 1 bowl every twenty-four hours is usually sufficient.
- Some adult sarplaninacs might prefer 2 lighter meals. It’s your duty to adapt to your sarplaninac’s eating habits.
Excellent-quality dry food ensures balanced nutrition to full-grown sarplaninacs and may be mixed with canned food, broth, or water. Your sarplaninac may also enjoy cooked eggs, cottage cheese, and fruits and vegetables, but these additions shouldn’t add up to more than ten percent of his or her daily calorie intake. sarplaninac pups should probably be given top-quality, brand-name puppy food. Please cut down on “people food”, however, because it can cause vitamin and mineral imbalances, tooth and bone issues, and may result in extremely finicky eating habits and obesity. Give clean, potable water only, and make certain to clean food and water bowls daily.
sarplaninac Care Tips: Make sure to get your sarplaninac some daily physical activity
sarplaninacs need some exercise so they can stay in shape, recharge their minds, and stay healthy. Exercise also seems to help sarplaninacs fight boredom, which often has the potential to lead to to difficult behavior. Getting out of the house can quell many of your sarplaninac’s desires to herd, dig, chase, retrieve and chew. Individual exercise needs will depend on your sarplaninac’s age and her level of health—but ten minutes in the backyard and a couple of walks down the street every day probably will not be enough. If your sarplaninac is a 6 to 18 month adolescent, her requirements will be much more.
Grooming tips for sarplaninacs
You can help reduce shedding and keep your sarplaninac clean with regular brushing. Inspect for ticks and fleas daily during warm weather. Sometimes sarplaninacs don’t need a bath more than a few times per year. Before giving him a bath, cut out or comb any mats from the sarplaninac’s hair. Carefully rinse all soap out of the coat, or dirt will stick to the soap.
How to Handle Your sarplaninac
Puppies, as opposed to adults, are obviously the easiest to manage. When carrying the sarplaninac pup, put 1 of your hands under the dog’s chest, either with the forearm or other hand supporting the back legs and rear. Never try to grab or lift your puppy by his forelegs, tail or back of the neck. If you have to pick up a bigger, adult sarplaninac, lift from the underside, supporting her chest with 1 of your arms and rump with the other arm.
How to House your sarplaninac
Your sarplaninac needs a comfy quiet location in order to rest apart from all the breezes and off the floor or ground. You might want to think about purchasing a dog bed, or consider making one out of a wooden box. Place a clean blanket, sheet, comforter, or pillow inside the bed. Wash the sarplaninac’s bed covering frequently. If the sarplaninac will be outdoors frequently, be sure she has plenty of cool water and covering in the summer, and a covered, warm, dry area during the winter.
Your community has licensing regulations to heed. Be certain you affix the license to your sarplaninac’s collar. This, along with an ID tag, can possibly help secure your sarplaninac’s return if she happens to go missing.
Information on sarplaninac Behavior
Thoughts on sarplaninac Training
A well-mannered, companion sarplaninac is a blessing to have. But when left untrained, your dog can easily be a lot of trouble. Training your sarplaninac on the minimums—”Come”, “Down”, “Heel”, “Off”, “Sit”, “Stay”, and “Leave it”—bolsters the relationship both with your dog as well as your neighbors. If you have a puppy, begin teaching him or her the appropriate behavior as fast as you can! Use a snack as an incentive and a reward. Pups can be enrolled in obedience classes when they have been adequately vaccinated. Contact your local humane society or SPCA for training classes. It is best to walk your sarplaninac leashed while in public, even while a puppy. Be positive your dog will come back to you when you tell him. A disobedient or aggressive sarplaninac shouldn’t play with other people.
Knowing Your sarplaninac’s Health
sarplaninacs should visit the vet for a complete check-up, shots and a heartworm screening every year, and promptly when she is hurt or sick.
Your sarplaninac’s Oral Health
Although we might simply dislike our sarplaninac’s foul breath, it’s important to be aware of what it may be a symptom of. Bad breath is a sign that your sarplaninac requires a dental exam. Plaque , which is caused by germs creates a foul odor that can only be cured by professional treatment. Once you have given your sarplaninac a cleaning from a professional, his gums and teeth may be kept healthy by eliminating table food, feeding a special diet focused on maintaining dental health, and brushing regularly. Your veterinarian can supply you with other information for eradicating oral problems and stinky breath. You can use a baking soda and water paste or a dog toothpaste once or twice per week to brush your sarplaninac’s teeth. Use a child’s soft toothbrush, a gauze pad or a piece of nylon pantyhose stretched over your finger. Some sarplaninacs develop periodontal disease, frequently referred to as gum disease. This dreadful condition will sometimes result in loss of your sarplaninac’s teeth and also cause infection throughout his body. The vet will most likely brush your dog’s teeth as a regular part of your sarplaninac’s health screening.
Although bad breath due to periodontal disease might not be that serious if caught early enough, sometimes bad breath may also indicate serious, chronic causes for concern. A sweet, even pleasant smell may often be a sign of diabetes, while diseases of the intestines or liver may cause foul breath. When your sarplaninac’s breath smells like urine or ammonia, kidney disease is a possible cause. Any time you find your sarplaninac has halitosis accompanied by other indications of ill health, like diminished appetite, nausea and vomiting, loss of weight, bad mood, too much urination and drinking, set a visit to his vet.
Fleas and Ticks in sarplaninacs
Daily, regular checks of your sarplaninac for fleas and ticks throughout the warm seasons are vital. Remove fleas with a flea comb. There are several new technologies of flea elimination. Speak to your sarplaninac’s doctor about these and other options.
Heartworms in sarplaninacs
Your sarplaninac is at risk of developing heartworms if he is exposed to mosquitoes often. Mosquitoes carry heartworms from dog to dog. Heartworm infections are known to be fatal. It is wise to give your sarplaninac a blood test for heartworms each and every spring—this is vital for stopping infections from the past year. It’s also wise to give your sarplaninac a once-a-month tablet in the warm, wet time of the year to be able to protect him from heartworms. Your sarplaninac should be on heartworm medication throughout a winter trip to a warmer climate. There are some locations, usually the areas with milder climates, where doctors advise worm tablets be used all throughout the year.
Medications and Poisons
Never give your sarplaninac medicine that hasn’t been prescribed by her vet. Are you aware that one regular-strength ibuprofen capsule will cause ulcers in sarplaninacs? Make sure your sarplaninac is never exposed to rat poison and other rodenticides. When you have reason to believe that your pooch has eaten a poison, immediately call the vet or the ASPCA Poison Control Center at (888) 426-4435 twenty-four hrs. a day for help.
sarplaninac Sterilization Procedures
Male sarplaninacs should be neutered – the extraction of the testicles – and females spayed – the extraction of the uterus and ovaries – by 6 months of age. Spaying before maturity greatly reduces the breast cancer risk, a common and often deadly problem of older female dogs. Spaying also eradicates the possibility of a diseased uterus, a very serious problem in older females that can only be treated with surgery and intensive medical care. Testicular cancer, prostate diseases, certain aggressive behavior and some hernias are preventable by neutering males.
- The combination vaccine (also known as the “five-in-one shot”) needs to be given to your sarplaninac at 2, 3, and four months of age and again once per year. This innoculation protects your pup from hepatitis, leptospirosis, parvovirus, parainfluenza, and distemper. Your sarplaninac must be immunized for at least the first four months of her life.
- If you have an uninnoculized sarplaninac older than four or five months, she will need a series of two innoculations given 2 to three weeks apart, followed by an annual immunization.
- Your sarplaninac pup’s innoculations should coincide with his socialization program. Most veterinarians recommend that new owners take their sarplaninac pups to socialization courses, as early as 8 to nine weeks of age. They should have already received their first innoculations by then.
Rules vary so much between different areas, that it’s best to contact your local veterinarian for rabies immunization info. In NYC, for instance, the statute requires any pets older than 3 months of age to be vaccinated for rabies. After the first shot, you must get a second shot the next year, and then every 3 years. There are many innoculations, many of which are effective for your sarplaninac. There are others that are not, however. Ask your sarplaninac’s vet for her opinion. Also, if your sarplaninac gets ill because she is not immunized, do not give the innoculation until the dog has made a full recovery.
Worms in sarplaninacs
sarplaninacs are commonly exposed to worms and possible infestation—especially in rural areas. Tiny eggs made by roundworms are passed in an infested dog’s feces. Most pups, even from healthy mothers in good homes, carry roundworms or hookworms. The secret to treatment is early detection. This will make sure that the medication is highly effective against the worms your dog has. A dewormer that eliminates hookworms, for example, can’t kill tapeworms. Your doctor can best define the culprit—and decide the right medication.

Basic basque shepherd dog Care
basque shepherd dog Feeding Outline
- basque shepherd dog pups between 8 and twelve weeks need four meals a day.
- basque shepherd dog pups 3 to 6 months old should be fed 3 meals in a day.
- Feed puppies six months old to 1 year old two meals in a twenty-four hour period.
- When the basque shepherd dog hits her 1st birthday, 1 meal daily is adequate.
- Sometimes basque shepherd dogs, however, prefer 2 smaller helpings. It is your responsibility to adapt to your basque shepherd dog’s eating tendencies.
High-quality dry dogfood provides a balanced diet for full-grown basque shepherd dogs and may be mixed with canned food, water, or broth. Your basque shepherd dog may also dig fruits and vegetables, cooked eggs, and cottage cheese, but these should be less than 10 percent of her daily food. basque shepherd dog puppies should be given top-quality, name brand puppy food. Try to cut down on “table food”, though, because it can result in mineral and vitamin deficiencies, bone and teeth problems, and may result in some very finicky food choices as well as obesity. Clean, fresh water should be made at all times, and be certain to wash food and water dishes very frequently.
basque shepherd dog Care Tips: Your basque shepherd dog needs exercise daily
basque shepherd dogs need some daily exercise so they can stay healthy, recharge their minds, and maintain good health. Daily physical activity also really helps basque shepherd dogs fight boredom, which would often lead to difficult behavior. Some outside playtime will quell many of your basque shepherd dog’s desires to retrieve, dig, chew, chase and herd. Exercise needs vary based on your basque shepherd dog’s age and her level of health—but merely a walk down the street every day and ten minutes outside probably won’t be enough. If your basque shepherd dog is a 6 to eighteen month adolescent, her requirements will probably be much higher.
basque shepherd dog Grooming
Regular brushing will help reduce shedding and keep your basque shepherd dog clean. Inspect for fleas and ticks daily during the summer or other warm weather. Many basque shepherd dogs don’t need a bath more than a few times during the year. Before giving her a bath, comb or cut out any and all mats from the basque shepherd dog’s coat. Rinse all soap from the coat, or dirt will stick to soap residue.
basque shepherd dog Handling
Puppies, as opposed to adults, are obviously easier to handle. To carry your basque shepherd dog puppy, place one hand beneath the dog’s chest, with either your forearm or your other hand supporting the hind legs and rump. Never attempt to grab or lift your pup by his or her forelegs, back of the neck or tail. If you have to lift a bigger, full-grown basque shepherd dog, pick it up from underneath, supporting her chest with 1 arm and rear end with the other.
basque shepherd dog housing
basque shepherd dogs need a cozy peaceful spot to rest apart from all the drafts and away from the floor. You might want to purchase a dog bed, or make one out of a wood box. Place a clean blanket, comforter, sheet, or pillow inside the bed as cushion. Wash your basque shepherd dog’s bedding frequently. If your basque shepherd dog will be outdoors frequently, be sure he has plenty of cool water and covering in hot weather, and a warm, dry, covered shelter during the winter.
basque shepherd dog Licensing
Follow the community’s licensing regulations. Be sure to attach the license to your basque shepherd dog’s collar. The license, along with an ID tag or tattoo, may help you recover your basque shepherd dog if he happens to go missing.

Thoughts on Training the basque shepherd dog
Well-mannered, companion basque shepherd dogs can be a blessing. However, untrained, your dog can be trouble. Training your basque shepherd dog on the minimums—”Come”, “Down”, “Heel”, “Off”, “Sit”, “Stay”, and “Leave it”—strengthens your relationship with both your basque shepherd dog as well as your neighbors. If you’re the owner of a puppy, begin teaching him or her manners immediately! Use doggie snacks as recognition and incentive. Pups can start obedience classes when they are sufficiently vaccinated. Contact your local SPCA or humane society for obedience course recommendations. It is best to walk your basque shepherd dog leashed in public, even while a puppy. Just be certain your basque shepherd dog will come to you whenever you say. A disobedient or aggressive basque shepherd dog cannot play with others.
About your basque shepherd dog’s Health
Your basque shepherd dog should visit the vet for a complete examination, immunizations and heartworm screening annualy, and immediately if she is injured or sick.
Knowing Your basque shepherd dog’s Oral Health
While many of us might simply dislike our basque shepherd dog’s halitosis, it’s important to be aware of what it may be a sign of. Halitosis usually means that your basque shepherd dog needs an oral screening. Dental plaque , which is brought on by unhealthy bacteria results in a terrible stench that requires the help of a professional. Once you have given your basque shepherd dog a cleaning done by a professional, her teeth and gums can be kept up by feeding a special diet focused on dental health, eliminating table food, and regular brushing. The veterinarian can supply you with more guidance for eradicating oral diseases and stinky breath. You can easily brush your basque shepherd dog’s teeth with a doggie toothpaste or a paste made of baking soda and water twice a week. Use a child’s soft toothbrush, a gauze pad or a piece of nylon pantyhose stretched over your finger. Sometimes basque shepherd dogs develop periodontal disease, sometimes called gum disease. Often, tooth loss happens due to gum infection. Infection can possibly also propagate to the rest of your basque shepherd dog’s body. The vet will most likely brush your dog’s teeth as a regular part of your basque shepherd dog’s health screening.
Bad Breath in basque shepherd dogs
While the foul odors due to oral disease might not be too serious if detected early, sometimes those odors may also be indicative of fairly serious, long-term issues. Diseases of the intestines or liver sometimes also cause bad breath, and a pleasant, even sweet smell may usually be a sign of diabetes. If your basque shepherd dog’s breath smells of urine or ammonia, kidney disease is a possible cause. Set an appointment with a veterinarian whenever your basque shepherd dog has halitosis along with other signs of disease like excessive urinating or drinking, depression or lethargy, weight loss, nausea, or decreased appetite.
Fleas and Ticks in basque shepherd dogs
When it’s warm, it’s important for you to perform daily, regular checks of your basque shepherd dog for ticks and fleas. Find and remove fleas with a flea comb. There are several new technologies of tick mitigation. Refer to your basque shepherd dog’s doctor about her or his recommendations.
Heartworms in basque shepherd dogs
The heartworm is a parasite that resides in the heart and is passed from a contaminated dog to your basque shepherd dog by mosquitoes. Several basque shepherd dogs die annualy due to heartworms. It is extremely important you make sure your basque shepherd dog has a blood test for heartworms every spring. It’s also wise to give your basque shepherd dog a once-a-month tablet during the warm, wet time of the year to help protect him from heartworms. If ever you vacation in warmer climates with your basque shepherd dog in the winter, she should be on the preventive medicine during the trip. In some of the warmer regions, vets recommend preventive parasite medication be taken continually.
Medicines and Toxins
Do not ever give your basque shepherd dog medicine that has not been prescribed by his vet. For example, are you aware that 1 regular-strength ibuprofen capsule causes ulcers in some dogs Make sure your basque shepherd dog is never exposed to rat poison and other rodenticides. Make sure to notify your dog’s veterinarian when you think your basque shepherd dog has consumed a toxin. You should also immediately call the ASPCA Poison Control Center at (888) 426-4435 for 24 hour help.
basque shepherd dog Sterilization Procedures
Female basque shepherd dogs should be spayed—which is the extraction of the ovaries and uterus—and males neutered—extraction of the testicles—by six months old. Spaying before maturity greatly reduces the risk of breast cancer, which is a common and frequently deadly illness for more mature female dogs. The risk of a sick uterus, which is another serious condition that affects older females, will be eliminated by spaying prior to six months. Testicular cancer, prostate diseases, certain aggressive behavior and some hernias are preventable by neutering males.
Innoculating your basque shepherd dog
- The combination vaccine (also known as the “five-in-one shot”) ought to be given to your basque shepherd dog at 2, 3, and 4 months old and then once every year. This immunization immunizes your pup from distemper, hepatitis, leptospirosis, parvovirus, and parainfluenza. The basque shepherd dog must be vaccinated for at least the first four months of his life.
- If your basque shepherd dog has not been vaccinated and is older than four months, she will need to be given 2 immunizations immediately, 2 to 3 weeks apart. After that you must vaccinate every year.
- basque shepherd dog pup immunization and socialization should go hand in hand. Most veterinarians advise that new owners take their basque shepherd dog pups to socialization courses, beginning at 8 to nine weeks of age. At this point, they should have received at least their first innoculations.
Laws vary so much around the country, the best thing is to contact your community vet to get rabies innoculation info. For instance, NYC rules state that pets older than 3 months must be vaccinated for rabies. After the initial innoculation, he must get a second shot the following year, and then every three years. There are many vaccines that may or may not be appropriate for your basque shepherd dog. Ask your basque shepherd dog’s vet for his opinion. By the way, if your basque shepherd dog gets sick because she is not properly innoculated, do not administer the shot until the dog has made a full recovery.
Intestinal Parasites in basque shepherd dogs
basque shepherd dogs are often exposed to worms—especially in rural areas. Tiny eggs created by hookworms are passed in an infested basque shepherd dog’s feces. Even the healthiest of basque shepherd dog puppies carry hookworms or roundworms. Getting an accurate, early detection is the secret to treatment. This will ensure that the medication is successful against the worms your basque shepherd dog has. A dewormer that eliminates hookworms, for example, can’t kill tapeworms. Your basque shepherd dog’s doctor can best define the culprit—and decide the effective medicine.

Netflix’s Cobra Kai is undoubtedly one of the hottest shows on the streaming platform across the globe. Apart from its exciting storyline that seamlessly brings in new characters with the right amount of nostalgia, Cobra Kai has revived the careers of The Karate Kid stars Ralph Macchio and William Zabka as they reprise their old roles. Similarly, the massive popularity of the show has also helped in kick-starting the career of Xolo Maridueña who plays the role of Miguel Diaz in the series. Last year, it was revealed that Xolo Maridueña has been cast as Jaime Reyes aka Blue Beetle in the DC Extended Universe.
Having made his acting debut in the television show Parenthood, Maridueña first appeared as a guest character later becoming a main character in the series. However, the Latin American actor made his mark with the release of Cobra Kai which was first released on YouTube Red, before being acquired by Netflix. In the series, Maridueña plays the role of Miguel Diaz, the lead protagonist of the series. Now in its fourth season, Xolo Maridueña has amassed a considerable fan following for his strong acting performance in the series. Having started off as a shy kid prone to bullying, Xolo’s Miguel Diaz has become one of the dangerous fighters in the series with his sheer determination.
In a recent interview with USA Today, Xolo Maridueña has shared some exciting thoughts about his upcoming Blue Beetle movie and the latest season of Cobra Kai. From starting with a television series to making his film debut in a superhero movie, the actor has talked about the importance of inclusion and representation.
“Honestly, it feels like I’ve skipped a few steppingstones. Cobra Kai has been such a wonderful opportunity, (and) it feels a little bit intimidating being this is my first movie and it’s in a realm that’s totally different than anything I’ve ever worked on. I’m nervous, but I’m excited. It’s gonna be important, not only for Latinos and to see people of colour, brown people, represented onscreen, but also show a story that we haven’t really seen before.”
In the interview, Xolo Maridueña has also revealed that he has already tested the Blue Beetle suit and he hopes to get more buff to look the part. His character’s decision to travel to Mexico in Cobra Kai had led to speculation of the actor leaving the series for Blue Beetle. But fortunately, the filming for the fifth season has been completed and the actor is definitely a part of it.
Cobra Kai is now streaming on Netflix. | <urn:uuid:c9e25f25-ada9-4c15-8092-6e464eb052b5> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://animatedtimes.com/cobra-kai-lead-star-shares-thoughts-about-becoming-dcs-blue-beetle/ | 2024-04-19T12:18:00Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817398.21/warc/CC-MAIN-20240419110125-20240419140125-00268.warc.gz | en | 0.979763 | 551 |
Investigation of college students' cognitive performance in trigonometry in a problem based learning environment
Br. Andrew Gonzalez FSC College of Education
This exploratory investigation was aimed to determine the level of conceptual understanding and solution strategies of twenty selected Nautical students in Trigonometry. Using qualitative techniques, it sought to reveal the students' problem solving strategies and performance on selected topics in Trigonometry. The students' answers to the seatworks and quizzes and their responses to the teaching interview were analyzed using Novotna's problem solving strategies and the indicators in the combined Van Hiele-SOLO model. The data showed consistent use of algebraic solutions in the upper group while inconsistent choice of solution strategies was observed in the middle and lower groups. This difference is attributed to the degree of difficulty of the mathematical concepts involved in the given problem. Evidences from this study showed the importance of maximizing the use of problem solving as a strategy in the classroom and the need for Mathematics teachers to understand how their students think and to address the issue of reading comprehension when doing mathematical tasks. This study also foregrounds the need for Mathematics educators to look into models of mathematical performance such as the Van Hiele and SOLO models to assess the performance of their students.

What we can definitely say about emergencies is that they do not run on a clock. Crises cannot be predicted, nor entirely prevented, but the reaction to them can be planned for. Through human ingenuity and reason, the effects of a disaster can be minimized. Workspaces that take the time to prepare for potential threats and equip accordingly – with a carefully considered series of actions – are empowered during an emergency situation.
When an issue arises, the faster you can be alerted to it, the faster you can respond to and resolve it. Moreover, it is not just senior management who may need to know about an issue. Depending on your company’s needs except of your employees, you may also need to alert your customers, partners or suppliers.
The argument in favor of automated emergency notifications is very straightforward. During an emergency every second counts so critical alerts that can be automated should be automated. However, companies have to acknowledge the fact that totally unpredictable events cannot be automated. Even if your company has developed an all-inclusive emergency plan there’s no way that you will be able to automate alerts for every threat.
In this post, we will focus on foreseeable events that can be automated.
What do you need to automate your emergency notifications?
At the very least, you need
1) a foreseeable emergency
2) an associated trigger
3) a flexible emergency notification system like instaGuard that can manage your alerts | <urn:uuid:5da2e2e1-86ac-4da4-ae2b-0d9669dbee81> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://ansartgroup.nl/emergency-notification-system-what-is-it-and-why-should-you-use-it/ | 2024-04-19T12:27:52Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817398.21/warc/CC-MAIN-20240419110125-20240419140125-00268.warc.gz | en | 0.955278 | 291 |

Disturbance_AL97 continues to move west with the chance of it becoming a Tropical Cyclone increased to 90% in 5 days and 60% in 48 hours.
The disturbance is forecast to develop slowly, likely becoming a tropical storm by friday and be near the northeast caribbean. How far or how close is highly uncertain at this time. However, despite the projected track, the system has been moving west since friday, when it was first deemed a disturbance; hence, the eventual path remains quite unclear.
The longer it remains on a westerly track, the greater the probability of it impacting the caribbean, if it becomes a tropical cyclone. Thus, it has the potential to cause life-threatening conditions. Have your hurricane disaster plans prepared and monitor disturbance al97 closely.
At 8 am local time or 1200 utc, tropical disturbance al97 was located about 1450 miles east-southeast of the leeward islands moving slowly westward at around 8 mph.
Maximum sustained winds are unknown, at this time; however, winds are likely less than 30 mph.
By around the middle of this week, we will be in a better position to say with some certainty how strong and which island, if any, this system will impact.
Please note that no alerts, watches or warnings are in effect at this time but this could change in the next couple days.
Residents should monitor this developing system closely, as it has the potential to produce hazardous weather conditions across our area

Textbook selectors should thoroughly examine the Computer Science curriculum before they select a textbook. If the curriculum and Its objectives are clear and well defined, it will be obvious when a textbooks content is in line with the curriculum and when the objectives of both the textbook and the Computer Science curriculum are in parallel. When teaching computer science It Is very Important to select the correct textbook as well as to select the right community resource.
While it may be difficult and overwhelming to select the right textbook, there are factors that will guide a teacher In selecting the appropriate textbook. Five factors in selecting textbooks are appropriateness, readability, availability, credibility and cost. The textbook should be appropriate where the content and objectives compared with the Computer Science curriculum are concerned. When students are doing any activity such as an assignment or preparing for a test, they should be able to use Just one textbook. The textbook that is to be chosen should cover all or at least most of he syllabus.
This will prevent students from using two or three different textbooks. When some students use more than one textbook for the same subject, they might get confused because of the different styles or levels that the different authors use. It should have an easy to use glossary, index, appendix, and table of content. The glossary should have all the terminology used in the chapters. This will provide a quick reference for the student. It should also have an activity at the end of each section or chapter, so that the students can test themselves.
They will discover whether they understand the concepts of that chapter, or whether they are weak in a particular area and need to revise that area before moving on. Having the relevant content Is good, but It Is useless to the student If the Information in the textbook is unclear or difficult to understand. The text should be physically clear. This means that the font type, font color, font size and the background of the textbook should permit the reader to read the text exclusively of any Intricacies. Pictures, tables and graphs should be clearly printed.
Graphical Illustrations should be relevant to the content, and located near the points of reference. Labeling these pictures, tables, and graph are crucial to comprehension. As it relates to vocabulary, texts with unnecessarily complex vocabularies should be avoided where possible. If a text has Infrequent complex words. The speed at which the students read and comprehend will be slower. The ease of understanding what is read is also affected by syntax, or sentence structure and the way in which the content is organized. The I OFF progress to unknown concepts.
Availability and cost are two factors to be considered when selecting a textbook that are sometimes overlooked. Even if a textbook is perfect in line with the Computer Science syllabus, if it is not available for all the students that will be using the text, and if it is not affordable for the average student, it should not be selected. Some of the things that affect the credibility of a textbook include author educational level, date of publication and the reputation of the textbook. The education of an author can be used to assess whether a textbook is creditable.
For example, an author with a Doctorate degree will be accredited more that an author with a Bachelor degree. In sciences such as Computer, technology and information is changing very rapidly. Things that could not be done one or two years ago can now be done today. It is important to keep up with the change in technology. Other wise a textbook may contain information that was true back when it was written, but is incorrect now. If a textbook has been on the market for a long time, and it has been used successfully by schools, then it should be among the list of text to be evaluated.
In addition, if a reputable teacher recommends the text, it should also be considered. When using community resources, it is important that the teacher makes sure that the concepts that are taught, do not conflict with what is taught in the classroom, are relevant to the Computer Science curriculum, and are not too complicated for the students to understand. When selecting a resource person, he or she should not be selected on the factors of qualification or position held by the individual, but also his or her ability to demonstrate or explain what they know.
The individual should be able to foster two-way communication and be humble enough to allow students to ask questions. The session should include discussion after the information has been passed to the students. Relevance is of great importance when selecting a textbook. A textbook that contains a CD or DVD disc in the package is a plus, as this will provide interactive learning. It will also provide work-labs that will allow the students to use the newly gained concepts in real world like situation. This will enforce or drive home the concepts and ideas that are taught in the textbook.
The best textbook for a Computer Science course may rely on the teaching style of a teacher. A teacher that is bias towards teaching with a practical approach will teach best with a textbook that has many graphical illustrations. While a teacher, who is bias towards a theoretical approach will teach best with textbooks that are text based, and have few graphical illustrations. Because instructors’ mind are at a higher intellectual level that their students, they this, it would be wise to include a student representative in the evaluation of the codebook.
Since students are the ones that are going to use the textbook the most, they should have an input in the selection process. | <urn:uuid:1d98e017-d18a-4f7f-a1a3-8a582342cddf> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://anyassignment.com/samples/factors-to-be-considered-in-selecting-textbooks-10398/ | 2024-04-19T11:29:09Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817398.21/warc/CC-MAIN-20240419110125-20240419140125-00268.warc.gz | en | 0.951271 | 1,105 |

Interestingly, Fred’s very spacious office and properly equipped office is for formality. “What I require to do my job is just a workstation which is my laptop,” he mentioned, when Apex 1 Radio sort to know how the network engineer was working from home.
According to Fred, he usually works from wherever he is at any given moment. “I built the network architecture of my company, so I access it at anytime from my workstation and do whatever needs to be done on it,” he said.
Fred explained that on his on-call days while at home, he receives calls. “Once the user provides me with the password of his desktop, I remote into it, get in the Vlan and fix the issue without going to their office in person to do so,” he told us.
For less serious problems, he assigns a junior staff in his department to handle it by calling or texting them. “Why would I stay in the office when I can operate this way,” the technician asked rhetorically.
When the COVID-19 scare swept the United States and companies sought to reduce its spread by advising employees to work from home, Fred was comfortable with the arrangement. “It’s not new to me, so I found the approach normal and meaningful,” he revealed. “In fact, I was going to make the suggestion to my company, if it wasted time to take the decision,” he added.
Like Fred, scores of other employees in the Information Technology and other fields work from home. Internet connection makes it possible to troubleshoot hitches, have meetings, assess orders and serve customers. With COVID-19 in the air, these employees have simply continued working as though nothing happened. The only difference would surely be the eminent increase in workload, in some cases.
For one thing, COVID-19 would have served a lesson. On its heels, working from home could be valorized to brace to any such circumstance in the future. However, even without such a crisis, digital technology is gradually and steadily keeping people and jobs away from physical settings, in favor of virtual ones. Who says working from home, is not the next biggest thing? | <urn:uuid:4498a9af-ee94-4509-94f5-0438e23dd82d> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://apex1radio.com/covid-19-and-working-from-home/ | 2024-04-19T11:56:27Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817398.21/warc/CC-MAIN-20240419110125-20240419140125-00268.warc.gz | en | 0.98325 | 574 |

These citations could include directories such as Yelp, Google My Business, and Facebook. Having local citations from trustworthy sources enhances the credibility of your law firm and helps in ranking your website higher on search engines.

By incorporating these relevant keywords regularly into your website content, you can strengthen your website’s SEO and improve its visibility for its target demographic. This will eventually lead to increased traffic to your website, more inquiries and potential clients.

If you’re a football fan, then you know that the game is filled with amazing action and excitement. And if you have a screen that can display the beautiful game in all its glory, then you need to check out 5120x1440p 329 Football Wallpaper. This high-resolution wallpaper is perfect for any device that can handle graphics, including laptops, desktop computers, and smartphones. And because it’s so beautiful, you’ll be able to show your support for your favorite team while watching the action unfold onscreen.
What is 5120x1440p 329 Football Wallpaper?
5120x1440p 329 Football Wallpaper is the standard resolution for desktop monitors. Many users find it too small to see everything clearly, so a resolution of 2560 x 1440 seems like a logical next step. But what is 5120 x 1440p?
5120 x 1440p is actually two different resolutions that are overlayed on top of each other. At its lower resolution of 5120 pixels wide and 1440 pixels high, it covers nearly the entire width of your monitor with only 1/3rd of the height left unused.
One reason may be that you have a very large display device such as a monitor that is greater than 3840px wide by 2160px high. If you use a lower resolution such as 1920x1080p, part of your screen will be unusable due to the boundaries set by Windows (the Taskbar at the bottom, for example). By using 5120x1440p, you can see all of your screens without any problems. Another reason could be if you are creating a wallpaper that needs to take up most of your screen space. Using 5120x1440p will give you plenty of room to work without having to crop or pixelate your image.

An interesting thing happens when you start a mobile application development company – everyone starts coming to you with app development ideas. Over the years we’ve heard hundreds thousands of app development ideas. People usually have a good grasp on what it is they want to develop, but what’s less certain is how they’re going to actually start their business.
The main reason for this is that people with app ideas come from all walks of life and business is not always their core background. As a result I wanted to write this blog post with some general, but hopefully helpful and insightful information about actually launching a business to support your future software product(s).
First things first: the road to starting and building a successful company is long, twisted and highly unpredictable. The idea of entrepreneurship is often much nicer than actually working 70 hours a week, begging people for investment capital and trying to convince people to buy your product. For these reasons do a serious gut check and ask yourself, if everything goes according to plan, is this something that I’m passionate about and want to spend years and years of my life building?
If the answer is yes, awesome! If the answer is no, consider abandoning the idea. Throughout the rest of this post I’ll include “tips” to starting a business based on my experience and things that are really important (I’d originally called these ‘rules’, but the one rule of business is there are no ‘rules’).
Here’s the first tip:
Tip #1 – Building a company purely for profit without enjoying loving (often obsessively) what you do, will lead to a high amount of displeasure and likely burn you out before you ever make any real money. The reason for this is when the going gets tough (and it will at points) the only thing you may have at the end of the day is the love of your business.
The next step is to validate that there is an actual market for your product. I’ve helped launch dozens of products and seen friends and customers launch many more. If there’s anything I’ve learned, it’s that consumers are stingy when it comes to making a purchase and understandably so – they worked hard for that money, as did you! Everyone needs food, water, shelter and a cell phone – not everyone needs a social network app for their fish.
Tip #2 – Make sure that your product fills a need, and isn’t an erroneous luxury good.
Still here? Okay good, so now the assumption we’re working with is that your product idea fills a verifiable need in the market. The next thing we need to ask ourselves is whether this need is already being met by someone else – also known as the competition. Even if you invented a similar idea to Floppy Bird in a vacuum (meaning no outside influence) this probably wouldn’t be the best time to move forward with your idea as there are literally thousands of clones currently in the marketplace.
Tip #3 – Doing some preliminary research to understand your competition, your position in the marketplace and what makes you different (better) earlier on in the process will save you and everyone else involved a lot of time and energy.
Assuming there is an opportunity in the marketplace, it’s time to start collecting information. One of the first things that we want to understand is cost. How much will it take to get my idea to market? This definitely includes the product/software development costs, but also includes things like legal agreements, rent, computers, salaries, marketing, etc. More simply this can be encapsulated under Startup Expenses.
Once you’ve written your business plan, it’s time to start getting feedback from outside sources. Start with friends and family, acquaintances, potential partners, investors, advisers, etc. There are a number of things you may not have considered before and this is a great time to start getting outside perspective on the business.
Tip #4 – The quickest way to validate an idea is to see if anyone will pay for it (yes, even before you’ve got a product). In exchange for investing in your idea early they get the ability to influence the product, pay a cheaper rate than those who wait, and get the inside track on new features.
At this stage many first-time entrepreneurs want everyone to sign a non-disclosure agreement (NDA). While this makes sense in some situations, do not ask investors to sign an NDA; they won’t do it, and you’ll come across as a rookie (which is not good). Investors review thousands of plans a year. If they signed NDAs they’d open themselves up to liability and thus they just refuse to sign.
If everything is still good at this point, then it’s time to understand how much it will cost and how long it will take to actually develop your core software product. In order to give developers the clearest possible picture of your idea, it’s helpful to bring an outline of your product with you. This document is often referred to as a scope or functional requirements document.
When we help clients through this process we follow a set of fairly simple discovery steps:
1. What solution are we looking to provide? Example: We want to connect people looking to play basketball in real time
2. What high level functions do we need to provide that solution? Example: Profiles, Scheduling, Search, and Map/GPS
3. What are the specific features of those larger functions? Example: For profiles we’ll need name, email address, password, skill level and location
4. Finally, how will those features be arranged in a way that makes sense for the user? Example: First they’ll create their profile, then set their availability, and then search for other players of similar skills levels around them
The more information you can gather before meeting with a developer or product manager, the better. Consider more specific elements as well:
• What apps do I think have a good user experience (UX)?
• What color schemes, and fonts would I want to include?
• Should I create an iOS app, Android app or both?
If you want to take things a step further you could even start to create mockups of your products. Here are several great resources:
All of this information will help to give outside sources (developers, investors, employees, service providers, etc.) a much better idea of your product. Once you’ve started to put this information together and gather quotes on development costs, you’ll want to return to your startup expenses, and begin to expand this into a fully functional business plan.
At this point some entrepreneurs will choose to bankroll the project themselves; others will seek outside funding sources (angel investors, venture capitalists, crowdfunding, etc.).
Practical next steps include:
• Setting up your business entity with the Secretary of State
• Opening up a bank account once you have an employer identification number (EIN)
• Drafting legal contracts for customer license agreements, partnerships, sale of shares, etc.
Once you’ve completed all of this and your company is ready to launch, then the real work begins – sales and marketing! …but more on that next time. | <urn:uuid:c7a8f5ff-3f2b-42fc-b368-350cf9f1beff> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://appitventures.com/blog/how-to-start-an-app-company | 2024-04-19T12:59:24Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817398.21/warc/CC-MAIN-20240419110125-20240419140125-00268.warc.gz | en | 0.950914 | 1,520 |

- High-level installation methods to keep vinyl siding straight and secure on walls
- How to prepare areas around doors, windows, and other openings to prevent water infiltration
Whether you’re replacing your siding after storm damage or installing from the ground up, the quality of the installation job determines how well your siding will perform and even how long it will last. Improper installation of vinyl siding can also void manufacturer warranties.
Choosing Apple Construction trained, experienced, and certified vinyl siding professionals helps ensure that your home’s siding looks great and performs at its best for years to come. Read our reviews, and you’ll see why we’re a leading siding company in the Twin Cities!

As storm damage repair specialists, we know exactly what steps need to be taken to satisfy your provider, and we’ll work quickly to restore your home with little disruption to your life.
Why We Recommend Mastic Vinyl Siding
Mastic vinyl siding has an extra layer of high-performance insulation foam to keep the temperature in your home cozy throughout the year. We recommend mastic vinyl siding for all the other benefits it provides:
- Durability: With foam backing adding an extra layer of protection, mastic vinyl siding holds up against snow, ice, wind, rain, and extremely cold temperatures that inevitably afflict the Twin Cities area.
- Energy Efficiency: Since mastic vinyl siding’s superior insulating foam helps keep your interior temperature at your desired level, that means you can save a ton of money on energy costs.
- Pest Resistant: Pests like termites, mice, and other critters will find their way in your old wood siding eventually. However, mastic vinyl siding’s insulation does not appeal to pests like termites, ants, or birds; keeping the pest out of your siding for good!
Pros & Cons of Vinyl Siding
Like all exterior products, vinyl siding comes with pros and cons after installation. Vinyl siding is very affordable to install, while maintenance is a breeze. Additionally, there’s no need to paint as it comes with a pre-finished coat! Some drawbacks of vinyl siding are its longevity, as it doesn’t last as long as other siding materials, and it’s not the most environmentally friendly.
All-in-all, vinyl siding provides an efficient barrier to your home for a low cost! | <urn:uuid:87f71154-1e07-474e-8d9d-a2bc57c0fcbe> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://appleexteriors.com/siding/vinyl | 2024-04-19T11:43:46Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817398.21/warc/CC-MAIN-20240419110125-20240419140125-00268.warc.gz | en | 0.926961 | 664 |

Abortion up-to-birth bill to be heard by Parliament
A bill to completely decriminalise abortion will be brought before Parliament this month.
Diana Johnson's Abortion (Decriminalisation): Ten Minute Rule Bill will have its first reading on 13 March.
Under the Abortion Act 1967, abortion is illegal except in limited circumstances. This bill calls for the decriminalisation of abortion, without specifying any restrictions. This would allow abortion up to birth, on demand, for any reason.
Not in Our name, originally launched to protest the Royal College of Midwives' support for the BPAS 'We Trust Women' campaign, is calling on the public to oppose this dangerous bill.
Find out on the Not in Our Name website how to take further action, including emailing your MP to ask them to oppose the bill at first reading.
No protections against late-term or 'gender-abortions'
The radical bill follows a campaign launched last year by the British Pregnancy Advisory Service (BPAS). The UK's largest abortion provider launched 'We Trust Women', claiming that abortion should be entirely the decision of the pregnant mother, and that mothers who choose to have abortions should not be prosecuted.
BPAS is currently asking people to email their MP in support of this bill.
If it were to become law, abortion would effectively be available on demand. Even 'gender-abortion' would not be expressly prohibited.
Other concerns include the lack of protections against mail-order abortion pills, or pills being handed to students by school nurses.
Does not reflect wishes of British public
Despite pressure from BPAS, other abortion providers and organisations such as the British Humanist Association, this bill far from reflects the wishes of the British public.
A YouGov poll from 2011 showed that 88% of women in the UK either want to keep the current law and time limit as it is, or restrict it further.
Only 2% of women wanted to extend the abortion limit beyond 24 weeks.
Another poll from March 2014 showed that 88% of women favoured an explicit ban on sex-selective abortion. In the same poll, 92% of women agreed that a woman requesting an abortion should always be seen in person by a qualified doctor.
Conservative MP for Lewes, Maria Caulfied, commented: "We are surprised and deeply concerned that such a radical proposal is being brought forward. To remove all legal restrictions on terminations would allow abortion at any stage of pregnancy, for any reason.
"What would stop the serious potential abuses? Already within our current legal framework we have seen doctors pre-signing forms, gender-selective abortions being offered, live babies being left to die following abortions that have gone wrong and children with minor disabilities, such as cleft palate, being aborted.
"It is alarming that in the midst of such abuse of the current law, it is being seriously proposed to parliament that we join a tiny handful of countries such as China and Vietnam where abortion is legal on demand until birth."
Pushed by abortion industry for profit
Labour MP Rob Flello said: "Bringing this dangerous and radical proposal before Parliament is significant as it gives the impression that such an idea holds some sort of weight with the general population. It does not.
"This move is being pushed by the abortion industry who would profit from all legal restrictions being lifted from their practices."

Empowerment of primary school learners is an area that is needed to be considered seriously if total sanitation is to be realized. I was part of the team that visited Achilet Primary Schools in Uganda’s Tororo District alongside colleagues from Plan International’s Australia, Kenya, and Uganda Offices as well as colleagues from research institutions like Institute for Development Studies (IDS) – UK and the International Water Center (IRC) Netherlands. The clean environment was witness to the activeness of both learners and teachers at the school.
My attention during the workshop was caught by a joint presentation made by Indonesian government officials and Water and Sanitation Program (WSP) on Improving Data Collection and Reporting in East Java. Use of short message service (SMS) to monitor the progress of household access to improved sanitation was not only interesting but also a learning point where I thought we can adopt the same system in Malawi through arrangement with a Mobile Phone Service Provider.
Participants were divided into 4 groups to discuss the different expectations that were pulled from all the participants during the first day of the meeting.
The expectations were grouped as follows:
- Natural Leaders
- Sanitation Marketing
- Children and SLTS
- Scaling Up | <urn:uuid:5d83db12-5414-4754-a828-47bd2141a428> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://archive.ids.ac.uk/clts/contributors/dan-kapatuka.html | 2024-04-19T13:16:29Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817398.21/warc/CC-MAIN-20240419110125-20240419140125-00268.warc.gz | en | 0.97215 | 250 |
NYC Anarchist Book Fair 2010 The Politics of Disaster: The Earthquakes of Haiti and Chile in Context 18 April 2010 Judson Memorial Church
This workshop will explore how disasters are made, dealt with, and exploited. In their wakes we have seen the opening up of devastated communities to predatory development, and only rarely an opening for a community to rebuild itself on its own terms. We will present an anarchist framework to examine how disasters can be created and manipulated to facilitate the spread of capitalism through historical and contemporary examples. We will place a particular emphasis on the aftermath of the earthquakes in Haiti and Chile. We will engage participants in a discussion on radical disaster preparedness in our own communities and how to act in solidarity with disaster relief in a global context that doesn't replicate the same authoritarian and colonial structures already in place.
Aftershock Action Alliance is an anarchist emergency preparedness collective in New York City.

When deprived of Narcissistic Supply â both primary AND secondary â the narcissist feels annulled, hollowed out, or mentally disembowelled. This is an overpowering sense of evaporation, disintegration into molecules of terrified anguish, helplessly and inexorably.
Without Narcissistic Supply â the narcissist crumbles, like the zombies or the vampires one sees in horror movies. It is terrifying and the narcissist will do anything to avoid it. Think about the narcissist as a drug addict. His withdrawal symptoms are identical: delusions, physiological effects, irritability, and emotional lability.
In the absence of regular Narcissistic Supply, narcissists often experience brief, decompensatory psychotic episodes. This also happens while in therapy or following a life-crisis accompanied by a major narcissistic injury.

As a tribute to a departed boss, mentor, kumpadre and occasional golf buddy, I am reprinting an article I wrote earlier about him.
The recent celebration of National Heroes Day… brings back memories of that fateful day when the Maranaws of Marawi came face to face with near death and mayhem. The date was 21 October 1972, exactly a month after the declaration of martial law (21 September 1972), which shocked and awed the nation, so to speak. It was the day when the first shot that defied martial rule reverberated all over the land, unmasking a chink in the armor of martial law administrators. A group of Moro mujahideens identifying themselves as “Iklas” (loosely translated as total submission to fate) declared their revolt against the government. (I have not confirmed to this day if they were affiliated with the mainstream secessionist Moro National Liberation Front.) The local government security forces were caught, literally, with their pants down.
It was a deceptively calm morning while we were walking briskly toward home after our Soboh (dawn) prayers from the mosque, when we met a ragtag group of young boys in full battle gear shouting “Allahu Akbar” (God is Great), parading our streets, led by a certain Commander Mino. They overwhelmed the local police force and overran the government installations, including the government-owned radio station, DXSO, where young boys, some of them my students at the Mindanao State University, took turns declaring on air the start of the Moro revolution and… broadcasted non-stop Moro grievances against the government. The city almost fell into their hands, but for Camp Amaipakpak where government forces who were greatly outnumbered dug in and fought valiantly and ferociously.
There was clearly a stalemate, a scene one sees in movies. The Moro rebels had massed and reorganized their main forces targeting the camp, while the government forces stood their ground. The situation promised to be a long-drawn battle, but for the timely arrival of then Brig. General Fidel Ramos on the third day of battle. The news which spread fast about the “reinforcement” of Gen. Ramos had reached the rebels, which dampened their fighting spirit, and deterred the reinforcement of other rebel groups, believing that Ramos came with battalions of government forces to defend the camp.
It was psywar in action. I learned later based on official documents that Ramos at that time was “on routine inspection of the local constabulary units based in Cebu City,” and flew to Marawi City with only his handful of staff when he learned about the siege.
The presence alone of Gen. Ramos was the tipping point in the battle. The camp defenders were visibly relieved to see their chief fighting side by side with them, which fired up their flagging morale for being outnumbered. Their patriotic fervor resurged. True to his sobriquet, “Steady Eddie” was in his element commanding and rallying the camp defenders to fight on. He “personally reorganized the defenses by strengthening fighting positions and realigning the troops in key areas, and rallied the men to carry on the fight….” The rebels eventually withdrew and Marawi City was liberated.
For this singular feat of bravery, Gen. Ramos was awarded the “Distinguished Conduct Star” on 1 July 1986 “for conspicuous courage and gallantry in action during an attack by over four hundred Muslims… of Camp Amai Pakpak… in Marawi City on 23 October 1972.” The text of the citation described in detail the gallantry of Gen. Ramos.
That FVR is an authentic EDSA hero is a given. But before EDSA, he was already our hero. His daring act of rescuing Marawi from the clutches of an eminent subjugation by the rebels will immortalize his name in our history, and secure his heroism in the Bantugen folktales of the Maranaws.
It was no less significant a feat as EDSA. Marawi at that time was in total chaos. There was a breakdown of peace and order. The Chief of Police defected earlier to the rebel group, and I sensed that our leaders and top government officials, seeing the number and firepower of the rebels, were clearly dillydallying and in fact ambivalent whom to support.
Imagine if the rebel group succeeded in capturing Marawi, it would have a domino effect to the other rebel groups, including the mainstream MNLF, who will be emboldened to raid other government installations and encampments. And the country could have lost Morolandia and eventually Mindanao to the rebels. The singular heroic act of then Gen. Ramos may be a mere ripple in the political equation at that time, but it certainly helped save this country from disintegration.
Eternal peace my friend. | <urn:uuid:09f4f7cf-fed4-461b-ad91-aeb33fbf0a9a> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://archives.tribune.net.ph/2022/08/02/when-fvr-saved-the-day-for-marawi/ | 2024-04-19T13:11:23Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817398.21/warc/CC-MAIN-20240419110125-20240419140125-00268.warc.gz | en | 0.972486 | 1,019 |
Question of the week:I've been hearing a lot lately about exchange traded funds. What can you tell me about this new-fangled investment? --LBK
Exchange traded funds (ETFs) combine some of the best advantages of index mutual funds with the flexibility of stocks. Like an index fund, each ETF tracks the securities of a particular equity or bond index. However, like a stock, ETFs are bought and sold throughout each trading day, and can be sold short or bought on margin. Perhaps the best known ETFs include SPDRs (often called "spiders"), which track the S&P 500, and DIAMONDS, which track the Dow Jones Industrials.
We recently asked members of the Armchair Millionaire community about why they invest in ETFs. Here are some of the responses we received:
"I invest in ETFs for their convenience and low cost. With just three different ETFs, I get a simple, yet diversified portfolio that requires no attention from me." --Jeffrey T.
"ETFs are wonderful in this type of market. If you choose carefully and perform due diligence you can obtain ETFs that provide quality monthly distributions with the potential for capital gain. Some even have managed distribution programs that guarantee a distribution." --Keith
For people like me who are big believers in the benefits of passive investing, there is a lot to like about ETFs, and very little to dislike. My checklist provides a roundup of benefits of ETF investing.
The Armchair Millionaire Checklist of ETF Advantages
Instant diversification. Because there are a large number of stocks or bonds underlying every EFT, a single purchase gives you terrific diversification.
- Choice. There are now over one hundred exchange traded funds available, covering everything from the broadest market indexes, such as the S&P 500, to some fairly narrow industry sectors. This wide array makes it easy to implement an asset allocation strategy that's just right for your time horizon and risk tolerance.
- Tax efficiency. Because they are not actively managed and have very little portfolio turnover, ETFs carry some nice tax advantages, distributing relatively few capital gains.
- Low expenses. Like index funds, most ETFs have very low management fees. ETFs that track industry sectors or international indexes tend to have somewhat higher expenses.
One caveat: Since all ETFs must be bought and sold through a broker, you incur a commission cost every time you trade, making it expensive to buy small amounts. This means that ETFs are usually not the best choice for use in dollar cost averaging where you are investing small sums on a regular basis. One way to sidestep this cost is to invest through Sharebuilder.com or Buyandhold.com, two online services that allow you to make regular ETF investments for just a couple of dollars per transaction.
THE BOTTOM LINE: As new investment products continue to evolve, it's important to keep current with which ones offer the best benefits to common sense, long-term investors. Exchange traded funds are a good alternative to mutual fund for making lump sum investments and are well worth a closer look. | <urn:uuid:f73e077c-6e1b-4ce0-89e7-0e5a5d99ce9f> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://armchairmillionaire.blogs.com/armchair_millionaire/2006/10/the_lowdown_on_.html | 2024-04-19T12:53:39Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817398.21/warc/CC-MAIN-20240419110125-20240419140125-00268.warc.gz | en | 0.952718 | 643 |
Getting the most out of General Conference
I remember when I was younger and General Conference meant a week off from going to church! That’s because I lived in Utah where it was broadcast on TV, but I know it wasn’t that way for everyone, including my husband who grew up in California and it still meant driving to the church building and sitting in hard folding chairs in his church clothes for hours. He wasn’t a fan.
Times have changed
Now that I’ve gotten older, my attitude has changed. I absolutely love General Conference, but for so many other, better reasons! I look forward to the next one almost as soon as the current one is over. I love reviewing the talks and studying them thoroughly. They are, after all, our modern day revelation. This week I’ve been reading King Benjamin’s speech, and it’s amazing how similar it is. I pitch my tent facing the temple, and listen to amazing messages, and if I’m really paying attention, I walk away with a new commitment to do a little better to follow the Savior.
And all of this is how the General Conference Challenge was born.
I remember taking part in one many years ago and how much I loved it. When I started my own blog, the idea came flooding back to me and I knew I wanted to participate in such a challenge again, and hopefully others would join me. So if you’ve never done it before, I hope you will! There is so much to be gained from it!
So what is a General Conference Challenge?
It’s actually really simple. Basically, it is taking the time to study the entire Conference Report right before the next Conference happens. Think of a show you’ve binged on Netflix….because it’s a little like that, only better. You can set it up for any schedule that you like, but it’s usually about one talk a day, to read it, watch it or listen to it. You can (and should) take some notes or write in a journal the inspiration that comes. And if you’ve never done one of these challenges before, it is quite amazing how much inspiration can come when you’re submerging yourself in the words of the prophets every single day.
This is a chance to remind yourself what you were taught and how you felt during the last Conference. It reinvigorates those feelings that you felt when you listened the first time, the things you planned to do, and the commitment you felt to do them. Kind of like those feelings you get every New Year’s when you say “this is the year that I REALLY WILL…(your lofty goal here…)”
And it gets you into the “listening and learning” mode as you prepare for the next Conference. It invites the Spirit early, and that Spirit testifies of how important it is to pay attention. After all, these are the words given for us, in our day.
This is how Conference always goes for me…
Every six months, I get so excited as Conference approaches. THIS is the time—I will listen, I will pay attention, I will take notes and I will NOT get distracted! And I will most definitely NOT FALL ASLEEP!
And the truth is, even if I do all those things, and I pay attention and listen and stay awake, it doesn’t matter because General Conference is a dump truck, and all I have is a wheelbarrow. No matter how hard I try, I can’t fit it all. I can shovel and run as fast as I can, but there’s no way I can get it all. And even though I love every minute of it, most of what they offer me ends up laying in the driveway waiting for me to come back and move it.
And then life happens...
I lose track of what was said and who said it. It all blurs together and all my best plans start to be forgotten.
The motivation I felt to do better starts to slip away and old routines come back.
Soon all I remember of Conference are the snippets and quotes I see on social media.
This is why I love doing a General Conference Challenge
No matter how much I intend to do better every six months, there will always be obstacles preventing me from getting out of it what I really need. So many years ago when some friends invited me to participate in their challenge, I decided to give it a try. It was such an amazing experience that I have been doing it ever since. Sometimes I’ve been done it on my own, but it is so much better with others.
I don’t know why it matters, but it does. There is something special about knowing others are participating at the same time. Maybe it’s the the feeling you get knowing that all the Saints are gathering in their homes when Conference happens, but on a smaller scale. Or going to Relief Society and feeling the comaraderie with the sisters in your ward as you learn and grow together. Whatever it is, I can feel the difference when I do it as part of a group.
So how does the challenge work?
It’s really quite simple, and you don’t need anything special to participate. Just commit to study.
Step 1: Pick a time frame and set up a schedule.
This is going to be up to you completely. I like to do a talk a day, but if that’s too much, you can do every other day. Plan to be done as close to the start of next Conference as possible if you can. This puts you in a great frame of mind for listening when it begins. However, don’t let the time frame stop you! If it’s too close to the next Conference to finish, start anyway! You can take a break and then resume if you need to. It’s not a hard and fast requirement.
Step 2: Think about your life and where you are right now, and prayerfully think about the inspiration you’re looking for
Before beginning, make a list of any questions you have. Like I stated before, this challenge is best done with a journal. Take the time to write about what you’re hoping to gain from the challenge. You won’t see the answers you need if you don’t know what the questions are. Heavenly Father knows what you need, but you still need to ask.
Step 3: Pray for inspiration as you study
This is an important step! The messages in each talk will mean something different to everyone, and what the Lord needs to tell me right now is different than what He needs to tell you. Pray to recognize the message, and be sure to listen and prepare for the answer.
Don't limit your questions to the things that you want, but be sure to ask Him to tell you what He wants you to know. The answers may surprise you!
Step 4: Gather the right materials
We all learn differently, so maybe you prefer to listen or watch the talks. My personal favorite is to sit at my desk and watch the video replay with a written copy in front of me to follow along. I can pause the video and mark things or take notes when needed. I also prefer a wide margin copy of the Conference Report so there is plenty of room for notes and doodling (yes, I love the doodling and making things look cute and pretty is so fun for me!) If you don’t have a copy with wide margins and want one, there is a free version you can download right here in my shop.
And I can’t state strongly enough the importance of a JOURNAL.
Whether it is an “official” journal or just a notebook or composition book, writing and keeping track of your thoughts is so important. And it should be more than some doodles in the margins. I recently went back and read some of my journal entries from about five years ago as I was doing a study of the Book of Mormon, and it’s amazing to see where I was then, what has changed and what hasn’t….and the funny thing is, I think I was inspired to do it. Because the words I wrote were a message I needed to hear right now. Who knew I could be my own inspiration five years in the future?
I have a lot of great journals available in my shop, and if you want something like that, I hope you’ll check it out. There is one that specifically matches the General Conference Report if you want it to match.
Whether you use one that I have created or choose something else, I recommend having a brand new one that is specific to this challenge/Conference. That way you can label it and tuck it away, but find it if you ever need or want to go back and read what you wrote about a specific talk.
Get Ready to Participate!
I hope you’ll want to join the challenge and participate with me as I get started! You can join the official challenge here.
When joining, you’ll get a series of emails with all kinds of tips and tricks for studying, and motivation to help you out along the way (as well as some freebies that I know you’ll love) And I hope you’ll get so much out of it and love it as much as I do! | <urn:uuid:81238829-1134-4393-b672-d3328776722c> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://armouroflight.net/blogs/news/getting-the-most-out-of-general-conference | 2024-04-19T12:59:07Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817398.21/warc/CC-MAIN-20240419110125-20240419140125-00268.warc.gz | en | 0.967328 | 1,985 |
- Reaction score
I could so see such laws being abused though. You would need a rock solid description of what constitutes an offence and what does not. Because JT would have charged every trucker with that law in place.There should be a new category of criminal code offences. "Crimes against the integrity of democracy", or some such title. And this would include disinformation peddled by media outlets, public agents, elected officials, that impact public opinion. | <urn:uuid:1f07dc67-e15f-4685-91ee-1207b1ae601e> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://army.ca/forums/threads/worldwide-energy-crisis.134570/page-4 | 2024-04-19T12:26:06Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817398.21/warc/CC-MAIN-20240419110125-20240419140125-00268.warc.gz | en | 0.966188 | 93 |
Alfa Romeo Centro Stile is now closing down it’s current location on the site of the former Alfa Romeo factory at Arese. breaking a century old link between the car maker and the City of Milan.
Alfa Romeo’s very first cars were produced at a factory in the Portello suburb of Milan in 1910. The Alfa Romeo logo, the Biscione, famously bears the ancient crest of the Viscontis of Milan dating back to the 11th century and the crusades.
Today, Alfa Romeo’s link with Milan is held by the very slenderest of threads. The historical association with Milan is captured in the brand’s latest model, the MiTo, which draws its name from a combination of the cities of Milan and Turin. Only Alfa Romeo Centro Stile, the official museum and the Fiat Powertrain helpdesk remain at the once sprawling Arese factory that saw mass car production ending a decade ago. Despite this, the small-scale assembly of the Alfa Romeo GTV and Spider (916) outlived the mass-produced cars while the classic ‘Arese’ V6 engine, along with some LPG conversions of Fiat models, continued up to the middle of this decade.
With the Fiat Group’s design activities (Fiat, Fiat Professional, Abarth, Lancia and Iveco) being recently refocused on the Mirafiori site in Turin at Officina 83 under the guidance of ex-Pininfarina design chief Lorenzo Ramaciotti who reports directly to Fiat CEO Sergio Marchionne, the days of Alfa Romeo’s presence in Arese was always to be short-lived. Bringing Alfa Romeo into the new Officina 83 design complex will cut costs, create synergies and improve efficiencies according to Fiat Group planning.
According to Quattroruote magazine this week the general staff at Alfa Romeo Centro Stile in Arese have now been put onto the government sanctioned redundancy payment scheme for the next seven weeks and will not return to work afterwards. Work on upgrading the official Alfa Romeo museum, which is also based at Arese, has been halted.
