The first shot shows the lowest note about to receive a grace note.
The second shot shows where the slash actually went, that is, the full-size note to the right of where the grace should go disappeared, and the expected new grace note showed up in the next bar. Never seen this one before.
Here’s a better shot of the second picture.
If you have a note selected and you hit the / key, it will be converted to a grace note (and if you select the grace note and hit / it will be converted back to a normal note again).
If you want to input a grace note rather than convert an existing note to a grace note, show the caret before you hit /.
As the picture shows, I entered the main note first. That is the lowest note in this case. Then I went back to add a grace note to it. Is that right? I think I have done this many times.
It looks like the caret wasn’t visible. Once you’ve selected the note where you want to add the grace note, hit Return or Shift+N to show the caret.
I see. Yes it worked this time. Thank you. I did it many times right by accident it seems.

I believe (and @Michael_Ilseman might be able to confirm) that the motivation behind _StringObject being 16 bytes is that we wanted to have larger small strings.
Since large and small strings must have the same inline size, that means large strings have an extra 8 bytes to use for... something. Might as well stick a copy of the count and flags there. I think it also makes some access patterns slightly more efficient.
But yeah, if you have an enormous array containing only large native strings, you could technically halve the memory cost by only storing the _object field (as an AnyObject). Then you could losslessly recreate the _StringObject by extracting the flags from it. The reconstructed _StringObject can then be wrapped in a _StringGuts, and then in a String.
This is amazing! Do you know if this is the case for all large strings? It would be possible to shrink it down?
So the reason I'm doing this is because I'm working on my Swift interpreter. The VM uses a single word to represent all possible values, so usually I'll have a tagged pointer for things that need to be in the heap. I have my own small string solution, but I'm only able to give it 6 bytes (2 others for identifying the runtime type and such).
For immortal strings (literals), _object is just a pointer to a constant C string; there's no object containing its count-and-flags if you lose them. If you want to turn the pointer back in to _StringObject, at a minimum you'd need to call strlen to recompute its count. The flags are not critical.
For bridged strings, I don't know .
Hmm, I don't know enough about what you're doing to say whether any of this information would help you or what pitfalls you might encounter. But the easiest solution which comes to mind if you want all kinds of values to have the same size would be to box them in a class.
I'm trying to keep it a little more optimized, so I'm using tagged unions to represent all values. I choose to use 8 bytes to represent values so I'd have enough room to squeeze in a pointer, but now you can see my problem with supporting String.
One solution I like for it's simplicity is simply casting all Strings to NSString (which is just an object pointer). I can then use Unmanaged<NSString> to be able to control its reference count myself.
My main hesitation is that I don't know the performance cost very well between converting between String and NSString.
var swiftString = "a long swift string which doesn't fit into small str"
swiftString += "add some other string"
let nsString = swiftString as NSString // probably has some cost?
let anotherSwiftString = nsString // probably different representation in StringGuts?
The cost can be significant in some cases. For example, NSString's count is in terms of UTF16, which String doesn't store normally, so finding the count requires scanning all bytes of the contents. We do cache UTF8->UTF16 offset mappings above a certain length, but that in turn requires a malloc.
Good to know! I think I'll end up storing both words of the Swift String in my VM's heap. A little slower than having it contained in the tagged union, but it seems to be the most simple solution for now. | <urn:uuid:bb09bf2b-5ad7-4f76-8abd-a62c87ffdb36> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://forums.swift.org/t/string-count-and-flags/68977 | 2024-04-25T08:55:08Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712297290384.96/warc/CC-MAIN-20240425063334-20240425093334-00668.warc.gz | en | 0.951316 | 714 |

I’ve been your Beach & Parks Chair since 2015. This led to serving on the Keep Fort Pierce Beautiful Advisory Board and eventually the Parks Advisory Committee. I coordinate over 50 volunteers to keep 9 parks and about 4 miles of beach clean and maintained – a lofty goal for sure! Our volunteers showed they are up to the challenge by working 1,592 hours in 2020 – an impressive number especially considering the pandemic! Thank you, to all volunteers who work so hard to keep our beaches and parks beautiful. You have proven our theory that “the cleaner the parks and beaches are, the cleaner citizens will keep them”.
We can always use more help, especially during the off-season months when many of our volunteers are unavailable. If you are interested in becoming a volunteer, please call or email me – my contact information is on the website. This is a great job for those of you who enjoy the outdoors, and every hour is appreciated.
I would like to thank our Fort Pierce Public Works Department for their tremendous support. You have responded to numerous suggestions for improvement as well as reports of needed maintenance – and, they even thank us for this! They cheerfully provide 100% of our support with shirts, picker-uppers, gloves, bags, and any other supplies we request. I would like to thank Mike Reals, Public Works Director, and Paul Bertram, Parks & Grounds Manager, and our liaison, and others for the work that they do.
Our BlueTube program, spearheaded by the City and the Keep Fort Pierce Beautiful Advisory Board, has expanded our volunteer cleanup efforts to include all citizens, one bag at a time in our parks. These BlueTubes hold clean used bags for anyone to grab when going to the beach in order to pick up trash. You can then toss the bag in any trash can and bring more bags the next time you visit the beach.
The Keep Fort Pierce Beautiful Advisory Board wants to thank SBA for sponsoring the wrapping of another electric box at Gulfstream and Ocean. Please encourage other local businesses to sponsor a power box, and we hope that more communities will wrap boxes on or adjacent to their properties. If any of you are interested, please contact me.
Please also plan to attend the Great American Cleanup sponsored by the Keep Fort Pierce Beautiful Advisory Board on March 13th. You will find details on the City website.
The Parks Advisory Committee would like to thank all the citizens who have supported the idle speed/no wake zone at Jaycee Park. This change has been extremely successful in restoring the safety and enjoyment of this prized park and has allowed many other water activities to resume.
Thank you very much for this opportunity to serve our community. | <urn:uuid:10660632-a15c-4a43-a1ce-85bb377074e0> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://fpsba.org/annual-meeting/2021-beach-parks-report-charlene-adair-beach-parks-chairperson/ | 2024-04-25T08:20:15Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712297290384.96/warc/CC-MAIN-20240425063334-20240425093334-00668.warc.gz | en | 0.958789 | 551 |
Today, Frankie and I are sitting under the porch and witnessing another backyard invasion...of a better kind. Months following the Alabama tornadoes we enter the final phase of yard clean-up. We are not complaining. The clean up of a yard is very low on the tornado recovery list....unless you are a tortoise who wants his yard back.
When our tree team arrived the crew leader warned all the other men to watch out for the baby turtle that is in the yard....ha ha! Um, more like a monster!
"How big?" They all asked.
I say, "How about, you-can't-miss-him Big"
On cue walks out the 85 pound beast of the yard, master of the grass, the one whom you offend by your imagined brute-presence. You may think you are tough. Frankie is tougher.
But fear not, the quick moving shell is a vegetarian and not looking for a tennis shoe breakfast.
Frankie takes a quick look at the men in jeans and decides it's just too hot to show them who is master of the yard. I don't think the guys questioned who is master of the yard, they are just shell shocked.
I love hiding under the porch with Frankie watching the backyard activity of a bunch of men who spend the next 30 minutes discussing the biggest dang turtle they've ever seen. ....have I warned the guys that Frankie has a web-cam? Watching the web cam one would catch the men seeking glimpses of Frankie every time they walk by the patio.
Frankie knows these are strangers. Frankie recognizes people. He knows me. He knows Greg. He knows visitors. He knows when he is being introduced.
Greg's mother, Fran, is here for the week spending time with us. When she met Frankie, his regard towards her was simply amazing. There was no distant consideration of what she was doing in the yard as Frankie did with the tree men. Oh, no. Frankie came right up to Fran, stretched up his neck just as high as he could, his eye's brightly shiny. She was very welcome in his yard.
When it comes to sulcata language it's all in the shell and the eyes.
Back to the yard. Frankie is sitting under the porch, his back shell toward the crew and head turned away. Now and again he will turn his head but mostly he is listening intently to the going on's of the men. Frankie's eyes are not fully open but instead shifting to and fro. He is on alert.
If those rolling logs put down feet, Frankie will be ready for them.
If that roaring chainsaw tries to take up residence, there will be trouble.
Suddenly, Frankie gives me a Big Frankie Yawn. Mom has things under control. Wake me up, will ya Mom, if there's any butt kicking to do. Until then. I'm taking a nap. | <urn:uuid:deac4d69-050a-4a70-a8a6-779221360db8> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://frankietortoisetails.blogspot.com/2011/08/ | 2024-04-25T07:05:55Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712297290384.96/warc/CC-MAIN-20240425063334-20240425093334-00668.warc.gz | en | 0.978908 | 599 |

Rebelyn’s murder another setback to the peace process
I extend my deepest sympathy to the family of Ka Parago and Evangeline Pitao over the loss of their daughter Rebelyn.
It comes as a shock to hear of such news. I pray that the family remains strong in these trying times, and I would like to let them know that we peace advocates are one with them in crying out for justice.
It is sad for me to know of this tragedy. Especially that I have known Parago when I was assigned as a bishop in Southern Mindanao, and met him during the negotiations and release of Gen. Victor Obillo and Capt. Eduardo Montealto in 1999. Parago impressed me when the captured officials were released safely, showing his respect for their rights and safety and his strict adherence to the proper conduct of war. We met again during his detention in Manila in 2000, and he again impressed me with his strong conviction to his principles.
It is good to be reminded that Parago was released in 2001 as part of confidence building measures agreed upon by the Government of the Republic of the Philippines and the National Democratic Front to pave the way for the resumption of the peace talks. Now, eight years after, the killing of Parago’s daughter once more betrays the serious lack of sincerity on the part of the Arroyo government in talking peace to resolve the decades-old armed revolution.
I pray that we can act this time to respond against this barbarity, to stand up for justice for Rebelyn and the rest of the victims of these extra-judicial killings in the country. It is alarming that the killings and other human rights violations are done with impunity, and in violation of human rights and International Humanitarian Law.
We cannot rely solely on a military-led probe, and I share the family’s doubts on this. Especially with the fact that the Armed Forces of the Philippines has unleashed Oplan Bantay Laya 2, which is now on a rampage in the countryside and cities in Mindanao, making no distinction between civilians and combatants, and, now, their relatives.
We must again raise alarm to the government and to the international community on this culture of impunity, nay, this culture of barbarity, and press on the government to implement the Alston recommendations. It was United Nations Special Rapporteur Philip Alston’s report in 2007 that attributed the extra-judicial killings to a National Internal Security Plan that is adopted by the Armed Forces of the Philippines.
Indeed, it is now incumbent upon the Arroyo government to prove its sincerity in the peace process, starting with yielding the suspected Military Intelligence Group/Military Intelligence Battalion perpetrators and reversing the murderous trail of Oplan Bantay Laya 2.
We have seen so much anguish and blood, enough is enough! As Commander-in-Chief of an armed forces that have kept alive the dark and dirty secrets of Martial Law, Mrs. Arroyo is ultimately accountable for Rebelyn’s death in the grand scheme of things.

A slot receiver is an essential part of any offense’s playbook, and he or she can be a major reason for a team’s success. They’re a versatile player who can do things that many wide receivers aren’t able to, including running go routes and playing a key role in the passing game.
A slot machine is a popular casino game that dates back to the 1895. They were initially installed to attract casual gamers, but they quickly became a major money-maker for casinos. They don’t require any gambling knowledge, and can be played with a small deposit, making them an appealing option for people of all ages and budgets.
The basics of slot machines
A casino slot machine is a three-reel machine that spins with pictures on each reel. The pictures line up on a pay line, which is typically in the middle of the screen, to determine a winner.
They’re based on a random number generator (RNG), so there’s no way to predict which combination will come up, and the outcomes are entirely random. The RNG ensures that neither the casino nor players can fix any outcomes in their favor.
The odds of winning are not necessarily in your favor, but there are some basic rules that you can follow to increase your chances of winning. These include choosing a low denomination, sticking to multi-line games and progressive machines, and playing for as long as possible.
One of the most common myths about slot machines is that they’re programmed to have hot streaks or cold streaks, but this is simply not true. This is because slot machines aren’t programmed to be cyclical like other games. They’re also not programmed to have patterns, so you can’t really predict whether or not a particular machine is going to be hot or cold at any given moment.
Another myth is that the odds of a jackpot are more likely to occur in certain combinations, but this is also false. The probability of winning a jackpot is actually the same as the probability of hitting any other symbol in the game.
There are some symbols that are more likely to appear than others, though, and some machines have more stops on them than others do. This means that a lower-paying symbol might have more stops than an expensive jackpot symbol, but the jackpot symbols have the lowest number of stops, which makes them more likely to appear.
The biggest mistake that slots players make is getting greedy or betting more than they can afford to lose. These two pitfalls can easily turn a fun experience into an expensive one.
It’s also important to understand that most players will lose more money than they win. The only way to avoid this is to be aware of the game’s odds and stick to your budget. You can find these numbers on the game’s rules or information page, or as a list on the casino website itself. | <urn:uuid:3a77c2cd-a7ed-41b0-93a3-942cb720e331> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://friv4school2017.org/the-myths-and-facts-about-slot-machines/ | 2024-04-25T08:57:37Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712297290384.96/warc/CC-MAIN-20240425063334-20240425093334-00668.warc.gz | en | 0.965609 | 603 |

The Labour Party, LP, has described as false and unsubstantiated, news that its Bayelsa State chapter has ditched its governorship candidate in the November 11, election, Engr. Udengs Eradiri for the state governor, Douye Diri.
LP National Publicity Secretary, Obiora Ifoh, in a statement on Thursday, said:
“The party’s attention was also drawn to a statement by some unauthorized party leaders without the consent of the state Chairman and Secretary, who supposedly withheld their individual support for our candidate.
“The party leadership also read a statement by the chairman of the Forum of Labour Party Local Government Chairmen as well as the interview granted by our candidate with a national Television today on the matter.
“We sincerely do believe that all these issues are clearly a manifestation of political intrigues and clearly an attempt by the opposition elements to frustrate our chances at achieving victory at the poll.
“Our preliminary investigation on the allegation of financial compromise by the state chapter clearly shows that the alarm was false and has remain one of the age long tools often deployed by political opponents to achieve dubious edge over candidates who are the favourites of the people.
“We need to however state categorically that no party official from the national headquarters has entered into any deal with the Bayelsa State governor to compromise the election.
“We are in this race to win and we are sure that no amount of dirty politicking can stop the Labour Party and its candidate, a former President of the Ijaw Youth Council, IYC from winning the election.
“Eradiri is young, popular, experienced and with track record of performance at the highest level.
“His zeal to change the socio economic status of Bayelsa is unimaginable and unprecedented.
“We, therefore, believe that the unfounded rumour is being orchestrated by our political opponents.
“We also use this opportunity to call on our candidate, Eradiri to be focused and not to be distracted from the goals before him.
“He must ensure that the entire party structure is put into maximal use to achieve the needed success.
“Finally, we urge Bayelsa people to disregard the rumour and support the party as they have always done in time past, particularly, in the recently concluded presidential election where the state voted for Labour Party massively.
“They must file out and vote for the Labour Party and vote out these personalities who have held the state down since inception of this democracy,” he added. | <urn:uuid:e516b1e6-0d72-49dc-bb2d-c51a99d37353> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://frontiernewsng.com/bayalsa-lp-has-its-candidate-not-supporting-diri-party/ | 2024-04-25T09:00:30Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712297290384.96/warc/CC-MAIN-20240425063334-20240425093334-00668.warc.gz | en | 0.976971 | 529 |
Coalition of United Political Parties, CUPP, has charged the new service chiefs and the Inspector-General of Police to adopt technology in tackling the challenges of insecurity in the country.
CUPP in a statement by its National co-spokesperson, Mr Mark Adebayo, said: “While we congratulate you for your new appointments, we believe that you understand the challenges of your new offices and the expectations that Nigerians invest on you to bring them reprieve from the seemingly intractable and burgeoning security challenges of this country.
“For a purpose you were chosen, for a peculiar assignment you were appointed and to serve a nation and her people is your primary responsibility.
“We encourage you to be steadfast and loyal to the dictates of your offices and allow patriotism above all other considerations to drive your activities and guide your decisions with uncommon professionalism and soldierly honor.
“The CUPP urges you to deploy creative and technology-driven security strategies to dislodge terrorists, kidnappers and murderers who have been holding our country hostage for this long. Nigerians are tired of excuses.
“It’s time to get rid of those who are tirelessly targeting making Nigeria ungovernable and, therefore, a failed state. You have historic responsibilities to destroy every structure of criminalities within the shortest possible time. Yours aren’t offices for fun and fanfare. You are the very eyes, ears, arms and legs of this great country to secure, protect and preserve.
“Let there be a remarkable difference in the ways you fight insecurity and crimes. Make Nigerians breathe in safety and peace. Work harder than ever. Justify the trust reposed in you. Once again, we congratulate you and pledge our patriotic support to your various agencies.
“We shall vigilantly pay attention to the security situation of the country and engage you on the basis of the results achieved in due course. We urge the Federal Government to give all necessary support to the military and the Police in the areas of funding, equipping, training and retraining and adequate recruitment of personnel.
“We urge all the security agencies to ensure maximum protection of the fundamental human rights of Nigerians in carrying out their constitutional responsibilities of protection of lives and properties. No Nigerian must be made to suffer unjustly and no criminal must be allowed to enjoy freedom no matter how highly placed.” | <urn:uuid:def89654-ca51-41ee-be6e-4207efee39a9> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://frontiernewsng.com/cupp-charge-new-service-chiefs-to-adopt-technology-in-fight-against-insecurity/ | 2024-04-25T08:14:39Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712297290384.96/warc/CC-MAIN-20240425063334-20240425093334-00668.warc.gz | en | 0.952497 | 492 |
Feb 7, 2024–Everyone loves a frosty chocolate milkshake.
But would you instead consume–separately–a raw egg, half cup of cane sugar, a cup of warm milk, a cup of heavy cream, 2 teaspoons of vanilla extract, a spoonful of salt, and 3 tablespoons of chocolate syrup?
What about delicious, crispy waffles? Who doesn’t love those warm, doughy cakes, seared with tidy squares, brimming with melted butter, and overflowing with sweet maple syrup?
Sure, but what if instead IHop served you a pile of flour, a raw egg, a cup of milk, a hunk of butter, and a cup of cold syrup? Taken separately, you would gag on every one of those items.
Something magical happens when ingredients are combined. It is physical change; it is chemical change; it is emotional change. Scientific yet mysterious. Confounding yet reassuring.
Start with all baked goods. Donuts, cakes, muffins, cookies, and details food are irresistible fresh out of the oven. But before they enter the oven, most baked goods would be inedible broken out to their constituent parts.
Over in the meat family, the same transformation takes place. Who doesn’t love a good hunk of sausage. But I won’t even describe what organs go inside the casing, or the casing itself.
How about clothing? Today’s youngsters may believe cute outfits magically appear on the racks at the mall. But some of us remember watching our moms transform bolts of cloth into britches, dresses, and blouses using needle and thread. And when those clothes wore out after being handed down to ungrateful siblings, the material was cut up into squares and resewn into cozy quilts. Tracing back even further, the cloth started out as a boll in a cotton field or the hair on a sheep. Imagine wrapping our bodies in goatskins or silkworm cocoons.
Abandoning the food and clothing arenas, this metaphor can be flogged like the deceased stallion:
A marriage is more than two betrothed individuals.
A church is more than a collection of believers.
A story is more than a string of words.
It’s beguiling looking at the world around that we take for granted, and trying to determine at which exact moment do separate entities combine to become something greater than the sum of their parts. At what point does a sidewalk emerge from a wheelbarrow slurry of rock, sand, cement, and water?
When do quarter notes and rhyming words mesh to become an unforgettable wedding song?
A cup of coffee is only burnt, crushed seeds simmered in boiling water.
A souffle arises when egg yolks and milk are curdled and exposed to just the right amount of heat. At least I think that is so. I’ve never made a souffle, and don’t feel like looking it up.
Wine? Beer? Who really understands the alchemy behind turning grape juice into the nectar of the roving bridesmaids?
Glass. It’s just sand, before it becomes an exquisite, delicate champagne flute.
The wonder of our world is not the wonders of our world; it is the transformation from the profane to the sacred. It is that exact moment when raw material emerges as finished product. While looking for more examples, you soon realize every single thing that elevates life above the mundane is the result of some transformation. Whole religions are built around it. Ask the next Catholic you meet to explain transubstantiation.
It’s not the product versus the process. The product is the process. | <urn:uuid:26fa445e-295a-413a-8d35-ae062a5ce830> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://fullhousepr.com/parts/ | 2024-04-25T08:22:51Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712297290384.96/warc/CC-MAIN-20240425063334-20240425093334-00668.warc.gz | en | 0.940171 | 773 |

Since January, they have been teasing and calling it as “Industry’s first”. Here it is. Sprint has unveiled the world’s first dual-touchscreen Android powered smartphone Kyocera Echo. It’s truly innovative.
The Echo is surprisingly running on the out-dated Android 2.2 Froyo, while all the other new launching phones are having Android 2.3 Gingerbread and the Echo is having 3.5 inch WVGA (800 x 480 pixels)touch-screen displays. According to the Kyocera, the smartphone’s patent-pending ‘pivot hinge’ lets the two displays will operate independently, combined or side-by-side to form a 4.7(800 x 960 pixels) inch integrated display. The device opens up to reveal another display, but the user can flip the top display up a little bit to sit on an angle, just like a Nintendo DS.
The handset has a “Tablet Mode”, which enables you to use one application go around across both screens and it will be working on the CDMA EV-DO network of Sprint but not a not a 4G WiMax smartphone. Sprint has confirmed that the Kyocera Echo will come with not only an additional battery but an external battery charger in the box for free.
Kyocera Echo is sporting a 5 Megapixels camera with 720p HD video recording capability, 512MB RAM, running on 1GHz Snapdragon processor, 8GB micro-SD card pre-installed, supports cards up to 32GB, Wi-Fi hotspot capability, Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n and it is weighing 193 grams.
Kyocera Echo is also having ‘Simul-task’ mode, which is nearly reported as the next level of multitasking, to allow you to work with two apps at the same time. For example, you can be browsing the web, while composing an email or watching a video at the same time.
Kyocera Echo is having the customized pre-loaded apps, specially developed for the dual-screen mode – VueQue to let the users watch a video in one display and the users can browse and buffer the additional videos in the another touch screen. The company will be releasing special APIs for developers, which will allow them to design apps for the Kyocera Echo’s unique dual-screen form-factor.
Price & Availability
Kyocera Echo will be available through Sprint’s networks at some time in this ‘spring’ and it will cost you a $199.99 on contract, after a $100 mail-in rebate and you can pre-register here at the Sprint’s website to get more up-to-date info.

Onto Maizilind Unto Infinity
Onto Maizilind Unto Infinity (OMUI) is a game about humankind's suicidal instincts, interweaving grand geopolitical destruction with personal tragedy.
It plays much like any other ‘Gone Home-like’ at first, but when you enter the living room it evolves into an interactive family drama - whereby the childhood desire to play distracts and disrupts the narrative delivery of larger historical exposition and context. As these forces are layered and intermingled, the slow buildup of apocalyptic horror elements crescendo to a climax unlike most other works in the horror genre. OMUI draws more from film, theater, and history to orient itself as it descends into a surreal madness. The pieces are sewn together in a dream-like cacophony, amounting to a world-ending nightmare and heartfelt elegy for the dead.
For those mourners who refuse to forget but have been told over and over ‘the past is the past’, ‘that’s life’, or any other attempt to wave away impactful traumas: OMUI stands like a rock, resolutely relaying the message that the past is always with us, conditioning the present and determining our possible futures.

A smoothly functioning garage door is vital for countless homeowners and commercial property owners. Whether it’s safeguarding your vehicle or acting as the primary entrance to your premises, a broken or malfunctioning garage door can be a significant inconvenience. In this comprehensive guide, we’ll delve into Fixing Broken Springs and Opener Repairs and Replacements, providing you with expert tips to keep your garage door in optimal shape.
Understanding the Importance of Garage Door Springs
Among the essential components of your garage door are the springs. Garage door springs handle enormous pressure as they lift and lower your garage door. So when dealing with broken springs, your garage door’s functionality is compromised, necessitating immediate repair. But don’t despair – Fixing Broken Springs is doable, and we’ve got expert tips to help you.
Expert Tips for Fixing Broken Springs
Broken spring repair is a task that requires caution due to the tension these parts are under. If you’re an avid DIYer, we first advise ensuring you have the correct tools and safety equipment. However, it’s always best to call a professional garage door repair service if you’re uncertain.
Here are some tips for fixing Broken Springs:
Understand the Type of Spring
Firstly, it’s crucial to identify the type of spring your garage door uses. There are two types: torsion springs and extension springs. Torsion springs are usually mounted directly above the door and are wound up to create tension. Extension springs, on the other hand, are installed on either side of the door and extend when the door is operated.
Use the Correct Tools
For safe and effective spring repair, you’ll need the correct tools. A winding bar and a set of sturdy, size-appropriate wrenches are essential for the job. Never use a screwdriver or other unsuitable tools as replacements, as this can be extremely dangerous.
Replace Both Springs
If you have a two-spring system and only one spring is broken, you might be tempted to replace only the broken one. However, springs wear out over time; if one is broken, the other is likely close behind. Therefore, replacing both springs at the same time is recommended to ensure balanced operation.
Always Prioritize Safety
Safety should be your top priority when it comes to fixing broken springs. Use safety goggles, and gloves, and ensure the area is clear of children, pets, and any unnecessary objects. Keep your body positioned to the side of the springs while working to avoid injury if the spring breaks loose.
Consider a Professional Repair
While you may want to take the DIY route, getting an estimate from a professional garage door service might be worth it. They have the expertise to ensure the repair is done correctly and safely, which can actually save you money in the long run.
Remember, dealing with high-tension parts like garage door springs can be dangerous. If at any point you feel uncomfortable or unsure about the task, feel free to call a professional for assistance. Safety should always be your primary concern.
When It’s Time for Garage Door Replacements
Sometimes, more repairs might be needed for an aged or severely damaged garage door. In such instances, complete garage door replacements become necessary. Replacing your garage door can enhance your property’s aesthetics, security, and even value. But how do you know when to replace your garage door? Watch for signs such as frequent breakdowns, excessive noise during operation, and visible damage to the door.
Opener Repairs and Replacements: Troubleshooting Common Problems
Just like the springs, your garage door opener is a crucial component that could create problems when it malfunctions. Opener repairs can range from straightforward DIY fixes, like replacing batteries or adjusting the antenna, to more complex issues that require professional intervention.
If your garage door doesn’t open or close properly, it could be an issue with the opener. Indeed, your garage door opener is a crucial component in ensuring the smooth operation of your garage door. But, like all machines, it can encounter issues over time. Here’s a rundown of some common problems and how to troubleshoot them before considering opener repairs and replacements.
Problem: The Garage Door Won’t Open or Close
Solution: Check the power source first. Ensure the opener is plugged in and the circuit breaker hasn’t tripped. If the power source isn’t the issue, examine the remote batteries. Often, replacing the remote batteries can solve this problem.
Problem: The Garage Door Opener Operates, But the Door Doesn’t Move
Solution: This issue could be due to a problem with the trolley carriage, which is the device that moves the door along the track. If the trolley carriage is broken, you’ll need to replace it.
Problem: The Garage Door Opens But Won’t Close
Solution: Check the safety sensors on both sides of the garage door near the floor. If they’re misaligned or blocked, the door won’t close. Clean the lenses and ensure they’re properly aligned.
Problem: The Garage Door Reverses Before or After Hitting the Floor
Solution: This is usually caused by an issue with the close limit switch. You’ll need to adjust the switch until the door stops reversing before or after hitting the floor.
Problem: The Garage Door Opener Makes Noise But Doesn’t Operate the Door
Solution: This could mean that your main gear is failing. Unfortunately, this isn’t a small repair, and you should consider replacing the whole opener.
Problem: The Remote Works, But the Wall Switch Doesn’t
Solution: If the wall switch is defective, it won’t signal the opener to operate the door. In this case, you must replace the switch or the wires.
Remember, while you can handle some of these minor issues yourself, more complex problems or opener replacements are best left to professional garage door repair services. They can diagnose and solve the issue more efficiently, ensuring your garage door is safe and operational.
The Choice between DIY Garage Repairs and Professional Garage Door Repair
Choosing between DIY garage repairs and professional garage door repair depends on several factors, such as your skill level, the complexity of the problem, the tools you have on hand, and, most importantly, safety considerations. Here’s a closer look at both options:
DIY Garage Repairs
- Cost Savings: DIY repairs can save money since you’re not paying for labor. DIY might be a suitable route if you’re dealing with a simple issue like a worn weather seal.
- Learning Experience: Solving problems yourself and learning how your garage door operates can be satisfying.
- Safety Risks: Garage doors are heavy, and parts like springs and cables are under high tension. DIY repairs can pose significant risks if not handled correctly.
- Potential for Increased Damage: If you’re unsure what you’re doing, you could worsen the problem, leading to higher repair costs in the long run.
DIY garage repairs can be cost-effective and satisfying for those who are handy and have some knowledge about garage doors. However, they come with their own set of risks, primarily safety-related. Springs and openers operate under high tension, and incorrect handling can lead to injury.
Professional Garage Door Repair
- Expertise: Professionals have the training and experience to handle garage door issues. They can diagnose and fix the problem efficiently and effectively.
- Safety: Professionals are equipped with the necessary safety gear and know how to handle garage door parts safely. This is particularly important when dealing with high-tension parts like springs and cables.
- Cost: Professional services can be more expensive than DIY, particularly simple repairs. However, the cost often includes a service guarantee, saving you money if the problem recurs.
A professional garage door repair service, on the other hand, brings experience, expertise, and the right tools for the job. Although it may seem costlier upfront, it might save you money in the long run by ensuring the task is done correctly and safely.
In summary, the DIY route can be cost-effective and satisfying for simple, low-risk repairs. But for more complex issues, or if you’re not comfortable handling high-tension components, hiring a professional garage door repair service is the safest and most reliable choice.
Regular Garage Door Maintenance: A Must for Longevity
Preventive maintenance is the key to extending the life of your garage door. Regular wear and tear inspections, timely components replacements, and simple tasks like lubricating moving parts can keep your garage door running smoothly.
Incorporating Smart Technology: The Future of Garage Doors
In our increasingly connected world, even garage doors are getting smarter. Modern garage door openers can now connect to your home’s Wi-Fi network, allowing you to remotely control and monitor your garage door through a smartphone app. If your current opener is due for replacement, consider upgrading to a smart garage door opener for convenience and security.
Ensuring Safety with Professional Garage Door Repair
No matter how detailed a guide you follow, there will always be repair tasks that necessitate professional expertise. Your garage door is a complex system with various interlinked parts, and mishandling them could lead to injuries or further damage. Professional garage door repair services are trained to handle these risks, ensuring safety at all times.
Replacement Tips: Getting the Best out of your New Garage Door
If you’ve decided to replace your garage door, consider energy efficiency, material durability, design aesthetics, and the latest technology while selecting the new one. Additionally, hiring professionals for the installation can help you avoid problems down the line.
Replacing your garage door can be a significant investment, but when done correctly, it can add considerable value to your property and enhance your home’s curb appeal. Here are some expert tips to help you make the most of your new garage door:
Garage doors come in steel, wood, fiberglass, and aluminum. Each material has its pros and cons regarding durability, maintenance, and aesthetics. Research your options and choose a fabric that suits your climate, style, and budget.
Insulation is Important
An insulated garage door can help regulate the temperature inside your garage, reducing energy costs. If your garage is attached to your home, an insulated door can significantly affect home comfort and energy efficiency.
Choose the Right Style
Your garage door should complement the architectural style of your home. Whether it’s a traditional carriage-style door or a sleek contemporary design, the right style can significantly enhance your home’s curb appeal.
Invest in a Quality Opener
A smooth, quiet garage door opener can make life much easier. Consider features like smartphone compatibility for remote access and monitoring, battery backup for power outages, and security features like rolling codes for added safety.
Proper installation is critical for the longevity and performance of your garage door. Even if you’re handy, garage door installation is a job best left to the professionals. They have the expertise and tools to do the job safely and correctly.
New doors require regular maintenance to stay in top shape. Schedule routine inspections and maintenance with a professional garage door service to ensure your door operates smoothly for years.
With these tips, you can ensure your new garage door is not only an aesthetic enhancement to your home but also a sound investment in terms of energy efficiency and property value.
The Bottom Line
While there’s a certain appeal to fixing broken springs or carrying out opener repairs and replacements on your own, it’s essential to understand when to call in the experts. Whether routine garage door maintenance or a complete door replacement, professional services offer expertise and peace of mind. Remember, the goal is not just to have a functioning garage door but also one that is safe, durable, and reliable.
Embrace the expert tips in this guide and ensure your garage door adds value and convenience to your residential or commercial property for years. Your garage door is more than just an entry point; it’s a part of your home or business that deserves expert care and attention.

Some specialists name spanking an grownup mood tantrum the place nothing is ever resolved, and it solely makes the state of affairs worse. Now, you will have the occasional time the place your baby ticks you off, and also you swat them.
While it’s nonetheless flawed, it’s not going to trigger any long-term harm. The drawback comes into play once you repetitively flip to bodily violence and spank your baby. It’s a extreme drawback once you assume that the one approach you possibly can deal with your baby is to hit them.
Hitting a child doesn’t educate them something in any respect. It exhibits them that if you happen to don’t like the way in which somebody is performing, you possibly can hit them, and it settles the rating.
Why Is It That Physical Discipline Never Works?
Striking a baby ought to by no means be a dominant disciplinary methodology. Everyone makes errors, and lots of don’t know methods to deal with the state of affairs. Use the previous to make higher choices for the longer term. Here are ten the explanation why it is best to by no means use corporal punishment in your youngsters.

As it seems, easy actions could be all you must give your brain a little edge. Best but, you possibly can spend as little as thirty minutes day by day to reap the rewards.
1. Violence is Never Okay
If you employ bodily correction in your baby, you educate them that that is an appropriate solution to cope with anger and conflicts. It’s additionally very contradictory to societal norms, making the kid really feel singled out and ashamed.
2. Inflicting Pain on a Child is Damaging
Making your baby really feel ache for the flawed selection in life is merciless. Some folks imagine that they’re doing issues for the kid’s good, however the idea of “No pain, no gain” doesn’t apply right here.
Child-rearing is about love, to not harm, so you must discover efficient self-discipline strategies that present you’re keen on them.
3. It Damages You Too
Not solely is hanging your baby emotionally damaging to them, however it’s additionally damaging to you. Have you ever spanked your baby and felt horrible afterward?
You could doubt your parenting expertise and really feel doubt, regret, or guilt over your actions. It makes mother and father really feel like a bully and never a information in life.
4. Children Can Suffer Esteem Problems
Hitting of any variety could be damaging to a baby’s ego. When you spank them, they really feel as if there’s something flawed with them. They don’t question their conduct as they’re feeling the ache from their father or mother hitting them.
Did you understand that this motion can result in self-image points in addition to physique picture issues?
5. You’re Putting Your Child in a Powerless Position
When you’re bending a baby over a mattress to spank them, you’re making them really feel powerless. When a particular person feels helpless and uncontrolled, then they may act out much more. Studies present that spanking could cause youngsters to behave worse, not higher.
6. It Shows Poor Coping Skills
Parents must instil respect, values, and requirements for his or her youngsters. However, once you’re hitting your baby, it’s onerous to indicate them something apart from anger and poor coping expertise.
7. It Crosses the Child’s Personal Boundaries
Things have definitely modified over the previous few a long time. This technology is aware of methods to respect their physique and to maintain folks out of their personal space. You educate them that nobody ought to ever cross their boundaries.
Yet, when a father or mother spanks a baby, it does simply that. Striking a baby will break their belief in addition to invade any sense of safety the kid feels.
8. Hitting is Not Effective Communication
Every motion causes a response. If your baby is having a problem and acts out, they won’t be keen to speak to you once you spank them. Instead, sitting down and attending to the crux of the issue will do extra for them than hitting ever may.
9. It’s a Bad Path to Start Down
With conventional self-discipline, mother and father begin with a trip, then grounding, and there may be a development of steps.
The punishments develop into tougher because the baby’s conduct continues. However, once you spank a baby, there’s nowhere to go from there.
In most situations, the “whippings” develop into higher and switch into bodily abuse. Again, it’s one other approach for the father or mother to take out their anger on the kid. Sadly, it doesn’t make anybody really feel higher as soon as it’s over.
10. It Doesn’t Work
Hitting your baby doesn’t work as an efficient type of self-discipline. You could cease the conduct momentarily, however the backlash from the act of bodily violence is long-lasting. In the tip, it’s in all probability going to make the state of affairs a lot worse.
Is it Child Abuse?
Many specialists imagine that spanking your youngsters is baby abuse. True, some mother and father imagine that a small baby and a faucet on the hand can assist them to know a range is sizzling and to not contact it. However, once you’re nonetheless hanging a baby that’s 12-15 years of age, then it’s not about redirection.
Child abuse is outlined as something that causes bodily, psychological, or neglect of a baby by their father or mother or caregiver. Since spanking causes bodily and psychological ache, it’s greater than justified as abuse.
Some areas of the nation permit a baby to be spanked if there aren’t any bodily marks left behind. When a police officer or Child Protective Services employee sees bruises, burns, unusual marks, and different indicators of abuse on a baby, then they’ll take them. Parents attempt to use bodily self-discipline too many occasions, and it finally ends up as a violent encounter.
Acceptable Forms of Punishment
Now that you understand what sort of self-discipline is unacceptable, you also needs to know what works properly. Keep in thoughts that the kid’s age and circumstances dictate your response, however that is a common guideline.
• A Stern Talk
Talk to your baby about why their behaviours will not be okay, and ensure they perceive. The older the kid, the extra speaking you are able to do. Don’t name names, yell, or make threats.
Talk to them in a calm voice as they are going to be extra receptive.
The secret is to take away the kid from the setting to offer them time to assume. This could be a trip or being dispatched to their room. A “naughty chair” additionally works nice.
The time of isolation shouldn’t be for lengthy intervals. Experts suggest one minute per every year outdated. So, a three-year-old ought to sit for 3 minutes.
Withholding means to take one thing from the kid that they maintain close to and pricey. You can take away or restrict video video games, computer systems, telephones, time with buddies, and deny different privileges. This methodology of punishment appears to work greatest with older children.
Grounding is a trip from the issues they love to offer them time to consider their actions. Some mother and father floor to the bed room, and so they can solely come out to eat or use the restroom.
Others will floor them for a particular interval. During that point, they don’t seem to be allowed to do something for enjoyable.
Final Thoughts on How Spanking Can Harm Your Child’s Psyche

Summary of: How to Travel the World on $50 a Day: Travel Cheaper, Longer, Smarter
By: Matt Kepnes
Unlock the secrets to affordable globetrotting with our summary of ‘How to Travel the World on $50 a Day: Travel Cheaper, Longer, Smarter’ by Matt Kepnes. This summary aims to debunk common travel myths such as the world being dangerous, traveling being expensive, and that you are too old to travel. Learn actionable tips on how to budget, find affordable travel options, and even how to sample delicacies from different countries without eating at expensive restaurants. Discover how you can plan your dream trip on a budget by taking advantage of different accommodation alternatives and creative money-saving strategies.
Breaking Travel Myths
Don’t let fear and age hold you back from exploring the world. In this book, the author debunks the myths that travel is too dangerous and expensive, and that there’s an age limit to travel.
Are you holding yourself back from exploring the world because of fear, finances, or age? In “Breaking Travel Myths,” the author challenges these common misconceptions that prevent many people from experiencing the joys of travel. Let’s start with the myth that traveling to exotic destinations is dangerous. News outlets like Fox News and CNN often perpetuate this myth by portraying foreign lands as hubs of violent crime, terrorism, and natural disasters. However, the author has been traveling the world for 10 years and has not once encountered violence. In fact, people are more or less the same no matter where you are in the world, and there’s always some risk involved in daily life.
Another myth to challenge is the idea that there’s an age limit to travel. The author met a 65-year-old man in Poland who was touring Europe before heading to India. He was making friends and sharing his life stories with younger travelers, proving that age is just a number when it comes to travel. There are countless couples, families, and individuals who travel for extended periods, proving that it’s never too late to explore the world.
Fear and age should not be barriers to travel. It’s time to debunk these myths and pack your bags to see the world’s many wonders. The unknown may seem scary, but the rewards of travel are immeasurable. So take a leap of faith and start your own adventure!
Traveling on a Budget
Don’t let the myth of expensive travel hold you back. By budgeting $50 a day, you can afford to travel and see the world. Take a closer look at your expenses, and get creative with ways to save money, like getting roommates or cutting back on nonessential spending. With a little effort, you can reach your savings goal and enjoy exciting new destinations.
Traveling the World on a Budget
To travel the world on a budget, one of the best ways is to invest in a Round the World (RTW) ticket. These tickets are offered by multiple cooperating airlines, like Star Alliance and Oneworld, allowing you to travel 29,000 to 39,000 miles, making up to 15 stops. Keep in mind that you have to start and end at the same destination, while also moving in more or less the same direction. Also, the more willing you are to make last-minute decisions about your travel times and destinations, the cheaper it will be. Midweek flights and early morning or late night departures are cheaper, while weekends and holidays will always cost more. Since plane fares can vary in unpredictable ways, staying flexible is the key to traveling the world on a budget.
To travel with ease and be ready for adventurous sightseeing, one needs a functional backpack with specific qualities. The backpack should have semi-waterproof or quick-dry material, two-zippered compartments that can be locked, and plenty of intelligent compartments. The size of the backpack should fit one’s body size and cargo. Testing out the backpack with the desired amount of weight before purchasing is crucial to avoid overpacking. These backpacking essentials make for a hassle-free and comfortable experience while traveling.
Traveling on a budget
Learn how to make the most out of your limited budget while traveling by using smart spending strategies and affordable hospitality services.
Traveling on a tight budget doesn’t mean sacrificing experiences or missing out on the best destinations. With some smart strategies and affordable hospitality services, you can still have a fantastic adventure without breaking the bank.
To avoid quickly emptying your wallet, it’s recommended to set a budget for different categories such as accommodation, transportation, and food and stick to it. Money can be stretched further by staying with friendly locals whenever possible and walking to sights rather than taking taxis or public transportation.
To make sure you have enough money to enjoy the best of what your destination has to offer, use a journal to keep track of your expenses. This way, you can adjust your budget accordingly and still indulge in experiences like a fine bistro meal in France.
Another cost-cutting tip is to use member-driven hospitality-service platforms. CouchSurfing, Servas International, and Hospitality Club are popular platforms that offer affordable and comfortable alternatives to expensive hotels.
By following these strategies, anyone can make the most of their limited budget while still getting the most out of their traveling experience. | <urn:uuid:b5301453-f70c-4afd-bb60-4d10a3ca535c> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://getsnaptale.com/book-summary/travel-geography/how-to-travel-the-world-on-50-a-day-travel-cheaper-longer-smarter-matt-kepnes/ | 2024-04-25T08:24:06Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712297290384.96/warc/CC-MAIN-20240425063334-20240425093334-00668.warc.gz | en | 0.930831 | 1,136 |
Arterial murmurs are sounds generated from the stenosed (obstructed) arteries, and these sounds can oftentimes be detected via a stethoscope. In this video, we visualize the generation and propagation of these murmurs from data generated by a computational model. The blood flow through the stenosed artery is simulated by solving the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations and the acoustic wave propagation in the surrounding "tissue" is computed by a high-order finite difference method.

Do you depend on just a few lures and hotspots to boat the majority of your bass? Break out of your rut and trigger more strikes with help from three often-overlooked “change-up” lures.
Getting yourself out of a “fishing rut” is sometimes a difficult process; at some point or another most anglers (I’m guilty here too) can get in the unhealthy habit of fishing the same baits, the same colors, and going to the same familiar “honey holes” trip after trip. To bust yourself out of this type of rut or fool those “educated” bass (fish that have seen the same lures over and over), here are three smart lure changeups that can turn your bass fishing from stale and repetitive, to exciting and trophy-filled.
GETTING JIGGY WITH IT
A flipping jig has been a tried-and-true staple for bass anglers for many years, yet for some reason, many anglers seem to overlook this lure while depending instead on Texas-rigging a variety of soft-plastic baits. Although the Texas rig may sometimes garner more bites, the jig is commonly considered a “big bass” bait. And that reputation is well deserved. A jig’s larger profile (compared to a Texas rig) makes it a great choice for anglers looking to switch-up lure presentations.
My preference for a jig is a ½-ounce War Eagle Custom Lures Flipping Jig, as its hand-tied skirt has a very natural, fish-attracting action in the water. I will tie on a heavier ¾-ounce jig if I’m fishing dense weeds or deeper water (12-plus feet). As for the best colors, black/blue is typically my “go-to;” I’ve found variations of green pumpkin also work well. Jigs are incredibly versatile; I can work a jig around a variety of cover, from flipping boat docks and laydowns to in and around various types of vegetation. Many anglers can lose confidence in the jig if they don’t get bit right away, or miss a few fish, but trust me, perseverance pays. Sticking with a jig and learning to fish it in a variety of conditions will pay off down the road; your weighty reward will be an abundance of above-average-sized bass. | <urn:uuid:2f89c2dd-38ec-4ea1-9507-6f8a7ea585c9> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://glennwalkerfishing.com/front-deck/flip-the-switch-to-trigger-more-bass/ | 2024-04-25T08:07:06Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712297290384.96/warc/CC-MAIN-20240425063334-20240425093334-00668.warc.gz | en | 0.938378 | 516 |

It’s 2018 and women are still swimming against the tide of deeply ingrained, yet hard to detect, biases. New Zealand’s top 50 public listed companies’ CEOs include four men called John but just one woman. Men’s median earnings are 9.4% higher than women’s, with the gap reducing at a glacial pace. The Ministry of Women reports that 80% of this gap is due to a combination of conscious and unconscious bias and differences in men’s and women’s choices and behaviours.
Why should we care?
At Global Women our vision is a business world that reflects New Zealand’s diversity. That includes achieving a higher number of women in senior roles. Why? Because the evidence shows again and again that the more diverse and inclusive a company is, the better it performs. Bottom line: diversity pays dividends.
The business case for change
Diversity enables businesses to tap into a wider range of perspectives, experiences, and expertise. That can make teams more creative, more innovative, better at problem solving, and better able to relate to their customer base. In addition to a marked improvement in financial performance, companies committed to inclusive cultures see improvements in recruiting and retaining talent too. Diversity offers companies a significant competitive advantage.
Why share the case for diversity?
Research shows that when employees and leaders understand the business incentive for diversity, they are more likely to feel personally committed to making a change. So it’s not enough for a leader to be personally committed to diversity, or even to include diversity in KPIs. Change will only happen when people understand the business benefits. Remember, too, that diversity probably isn’t a major concern for most of your workforce, so use the case for change to push it up the priority list. | <urn:uuid:49fcc2cf-7e4c-41b1-904a-67b7e8fd8fbc> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://globalwomen.org.nz/your-di-strategy/why-its-essential-to-share-the-case-for-diversity/ | 2024-04-25T06:42:47Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712297290384.96/warc/CC-MAIN-20240425063334-20240425093334-00668.warc.gz | en | 0.95425 | 369 |
Problem: Professional negligence claim against lawyers for errors in freehold property purchase relating to restrictive covenants
Outcome: £75,000+ claim settled
How long did it take? Less than 6 months
Our professional negligence lawyers acted for a construction company that purchased the freehold of a property located in London. However, the conveyancing solicitors acting in the property purchase failed to properly alert our client and advise that there were restrictive covenants which significantly affected the freehold reversion value of the property.
It was clear from the disclosure obtained by our lawyers that the conveyancers were negligent, and knew so but failed to advise our client on this aspect of the claim.
We were instructed by the construction client and our lawyers successfully settled the claim during the pre-action phase as the insurer’s solicitors sensibly admitted liability early without court proceedings having to be issued by our client.
The claimant client also had insurance cover which meant that alongside recovering costs from the defendant in the underlying professional negligence claim, our client was also able to recover costs from its own insurer. This meant that overall, our client was able to recover 100% of its legal costs and did not have to pay for a successful professional negligence claim.
The claimant client left the following feedback for our lawyers:
“Very satisfied with the way that Karim and his team took hold of a messy conveyancing professional negligence claim, and progressed it all the way through to an amicable settlement in just over 6 months. Professional, courteous, knowledgeable, and also pragmatic with advice and strategy. I would not hesitate to recommend.”

Problem: Our client received negligent advice from a direct access barrister who wrongly advised the client to pursue an application that was bound to fail. The application increased our client’s costs and adverse costs liability when it ultimately failed.
Outcome: Our lawyers were instructed to pursue a professional negligence claim against the barrister. Our expert professional negligence lawyers recovered 80% of the claim value plus a significant contribution towards our client’s costs.
Our expert professional negligence lawyers successfully acted for a former finance professional in pursuing a professional negligence claim against her former barrister. The barrister had wrongly advised the client of the prospects of an application at Court to contest and seek a stay of execution on a costs order but the nature of the application had no prospects of success.
Despite our client’s concerns throughout and seeking alternative counsel, the barrister was forthright in his views that the application had strong prospects and that our client should continue with the application as it would not increase her liability. This advice was fundamentally wrong.
Our expert lawyers were instructed to bring a professional negligence claim against the barrister, and started the pre-action process by preparing a detailed letter before claim by the Pre-Action Protocol for Professional Negligence.
We were able to negotiate an outcome with the insurers that acted for the barrister to pay our client 80% of the claim value and a significant contribution towards our client’s costs of the professional negligence claim.
Our experienced professional negligence lawyers offer cost effective and reliable solutions for businesses and individuals who have suffered professional negligence.
We provide a free consultation with our expert lawyers to establish whether or not we can help you. In our consultation, we will provide you with a clear strategy to achieve the best outcome.

I have talked with Nicole's reporter. As per the reporter, Nicole has a Labrador breed mixed in her blood. Her owners used to breed puppies and sell them right after. When they moved and Nicole was no longer useful, they left her wherein she unfortunately fell sick due to the things they did to her. My heart breaks for Nicole. I did not expect for her to endure all of these things from her owner. So heartless!
Nicole is voiceless that's why she can't do anything but to carry on with her life despite the situations she's been through.
As per his vet, Nicole is already old and shows signs of cataract.
Uunahin po gamotin ang infection niya since nag sepsis na po ito before they will proceed sa chemotherapy.
Hopefully tataas din po ang platelet count niya. We still dont know untill when she will be staying in the clinic to recover.
Nicole only has a limited time in this world. Let's give her a chance to recover and feel loved despite the nightmarish life she experienced from her previous owner.
Please help us sustain her medical needs and her clinic confinement. Our journey with her for her recover is still long.
For those who can spare a little amount for Nicole's medical expenses, you can also kindly send through these accounts:

TORONTO — One walk through a home tells Rachael Stafford what adjustments are needed to pique the interest of potential buyers.
For Stafford, the founder and creative director of organizing and staging company Order in the House, changes can range from decluttering rooms to services like painting and repairs, or even bringing in furniture rentals.
Buy/sell, rent/lease residential &
commercials real estate properties.
It’s a service valued by homeowners, she said, especially in a hot market where sellers look to gain any advantage that can help drive up the price of their property.
But as home sales throughout much of Canada have turned sluggish, home staging services have taken a hit as sellers rethink the cost of a thorough revamp, Stafford said.
“We’re still supplementing with some (furniture) rentals where rooms really need it,” she said. “But I find that sellers are more so trying to scale back a little bit on the rentals, concerned about the initial investment and the ongoing monthly fees should the property not sell quickly.”
Stafford, who is based in the Toronto area, said companies like hers have had to adaptin thishigh interest rate environment after a years-long housingboom. When interest rates were low coming out of the pandemic, “realtors and homeowners were willing to put in that extra money and go that extra mile because they knew they were getting the [return on investment] on it,” she said.
But now, many clients are either relying more on Order in the House’s decluttering and home organizing service or simply tidying up themselves based on advice received from the initial consultation.
“We have a warehouse where we store our staging accessories. It’s obviously very tough to be incurring those monthly storage fees when staging is not busy,” Stafford said.
“I think people forget staging appears to be a very glamorous industry, but there are a lot of moving parts behind the scenes. Thankfully, our organizing services help compensate for the slower trends in the staging market.”
According to a study by the Real Estate Staging Association, 45 per cent of staged homes in both Canada and the U.S. sold for more than the seller’s listing price from January to September of last year. That was down from 63 per cent in both 2021 and 2022.
The Canadian Real Estate Association reported earlier this month that the number of newly listed homes fell 5.1 per cent on a month-over-month basis in December. It noted that Canadian housing markets have remained quiet since the Bank of Canada’s interest rate hikes last summer.
Cailey Heaps, president of the Heaps Estrin Real Estate Team in Toronto, said that with the region’s home sales at a 20-year low, staging companies are “far more available than they used to be.”
She said the biggest shift in client behaviour that she’s noticed has been sellers choosing not to maintain the staging in their homes for the duration of the listing.
“They might stage for the first month and then if it doesn’t sell, they remove the staging … and go back to living with the way they had the house, but rely on the photos from when it was staged,” Heaps said.
She added that if she suspects a listing is going to take longer to sell based on factors such as geography and price point, she will recommend clients invest in a more “conservative” amount of staging that can go the distance.
“So suggesting, ‘OK, let’s stage the main floor, the primary bedroom, but we can leave the kids’ bedrooms in thebasement,’”Heaps said.
Home stagers have had to be more creative to account for the longer listing periods and added flexibility sellers need in the current market, said Katie Walker, principal designer at Katie Walker Interiors. She said the slower market hasn’t affected the volume of business for her Greater Toronto staging company, “but it has changed the way that things are done.”
In addition to traditional staging, where physical furniture is rented to place in the home, her company offers the option of virtual staging, which saves both money and heavy lifting.
Designers are able to blend 3D models of furniture into photos of the seller’s home and digitally remove some of the existing furniture. Walker said the option isbecoming more popular, especially as part of a hybrid staging process that still includes physical remodelling of high-priority rooms.
“What we’re seeing is obviously longer days on market, so it’s affecting the way the homeowner will treat the transaction. Instead of saying they’ll get a hotel for a week and incur that cost, they’ll be living in the property,” said Walker.
“In the old days, back in COVID, I would have said, ‘Remove that desk so we can make this space look larger.’ Now I’m hearing more of, ‘Well, I have to live here for the 45 days that this is going to be on market so let’s make that work.’”
With forecasts of a potential rebound in the housing market this year as the Bank of Canada looks to begin cutting its key interest rate, Stafford said she’s hopeful the staging industry will see a similar bump. She said even minor touch-ups by a professional can go a long way.
“You really want your home to show at its best, particularly in the photos for the MLS listings,” she said.
“Buyers … are browsing photos (and)listings online before they’re even willing to reach out to the sellers’ realtor to book a showing. So if that house doesn’t show at its best, sellers are really missing an opportunity.”

When it comes to the height of French Bulldogs, one might be surprised to learn that there is actually no specific height requirement for this beloved breed. Unlike some other dog breeds that have strict standards in terms of height, the French Bulldog is more about their overall proportions and other factors such as weight and muscular build. So, instead of worrying about a specific height measurement, it’s more important to focus on their overall body structure and balance.
French Bulldogs have a rich history that dates back to the 1800s, where they were originally bred as companion dogs for lace workers in England. Their small size and unique appearance soon caught the attention of dog enthusiasts around the world. While there is no set height requirement, it is generally agreed that a healthy French Bulldog should have a well-rounded body and stand at around 11 to 12 inches at the shoulder. However, it’s important to remember that every dog is unique, and variations in height can occur within the breed. Ultimately, what matters most is their overall health, temperament, and ability to thrive as a loving and loyal companion.
French Bulldogs should ideally be around 11 to 12 inches tall at the shoulder. This compact and sturdy breed isn’t known for its height, but rather for its charming and unique appearance.

Similarly, a French Bulldog that is shorter than the average height can be considered short for the breed. Just like being taller than average, being shorter than average may not meet the breed standard requirements for dog shows and breeding purposes.
However, as long as the dog is healthy and well-cared for, being shorter than average does not impact its overall well-being or ability to be a loving companion.
4. How can I ensure that my French Bulldog reaches its ideal height?
The height of a French Bulldog is primarily determined by genetics. As a pet owner, you can ensure that your Frenchie grows to its potential height by providing a nutritious diet, regular exercise, and proper healthcare.
Consult with a reputable breeder who follows responsible breeding practices to ensure that you are getting a French Bulldog with good genetic potential for height. Regular visits to the veterinarian are also essential to monitor your dog’s growth and development.
5. Are there any health concerns associated with the height of French Bulldogs?
While the height of a French Bulldog itself does not cause health concerns, it is important to note that certain genetic factors can contribute to health issues in this breed. These can include respiratory problems, joint issues, and spinal abnormalities.
Regulating the height of French Bulldogs through responsible breeding practices can help reduce the prevalence of these health concerns. Additionally, providing proper care, including maintaining a healthy weight and avoiding excessive physical exertion, can help minimize the risk of developing related health issues.
In summary, the ideal height for French Bulldogs is typically around 11 to 12 inches (28 to 30 cm) at the shoulder. This breed is known for its compact and muscular build, which contributes to its unique appearance and playful nature.
It’s important to note that individual French Bulldogs may vary in size, and some may be slightly taller or shorter than the average. However, breed standards provide guidelines to ensure that French Bulldogs maintain their characteristic proportions and overall body shape. | <urn:uuid:47aae955-738f-4ee1-9c9a-6110b0fc832e> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://goldenbailey.com/how-tall-should-french-bulldogs-be/ | 2024-04-25T08:47:13Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712297290384.96/warc/CC-MAIN-20240425063334-20240425093334-00668.warc.gz | en | 0.956969 | 1,810 |

Good afternoon, Wild fans! As you’re reading this, make sure to set your coffee makers to brew some nighttime coffee tonight, it’s going to be a late one.
The Minnesota Wild are beginning another Western Canadian road trip, this time in reverse order from the trip they recently swept. They will visit Vancouver tonight, then head to Calgary for a matchup on Wednesday, then finish it off with a game in Edmonton on Friday night. Check local TV listings here.
The Wild have owned the Canucks since the division and conference realignment. They have won 4 out of the last 5 meetings since they joined their respective divisions. They will look to sweep the season series this year which would be very satisfying for all Wild fans respectively.
The Wild are also on the verge of breaking their franchise points’ streak record which is currently at 10 games. The Wild are 8-0-2 in their last 10 games and haven’t lost a game in regulation since January 19th, almost a calendar month ago. With the resurgence of the Minnesota Wild and the steady play of the Calgary Flames, the Canucks’ playoff hopes are not so stable as they were a month ago. Currently, they are 3rd in the Pacific Division with 65 points, tied with the Flames. Depending on how tonight plays out, the may be out of the top three altogether.

The Wild’s victory against the Carolina Hurricanes was a great win. Not only did we see Thomas Vanek record his first multi-goal game since joining the Wild, we saw the Wild fend off a pesky Carolina team in the second period who scored two goals less than two minutes apart from each other, including killing off a 4-minute penalty. In my opinion, if you can win games where many mistakes were made, the lessons learned from those mistakes will go a long way. From what I have seen, teams will learn quickly from mistakes after games won as opposed to mistakes following games lost. The Wild are the perfect scenario for that.
How can the Wild beat the Canucks again? Fix the mistakes made against the Hurricanes. The puck control needs to be improved as preached by Wild coach Mike Yeo. Also, defensive zone turnovers need to be eliminated as well. Defensive zone turnovers sparked the Hurricanes’ comeback on Saturday. The Wild also need to reduce the amount of shots on goal. The Wild have been outshot the last three games and, even though the Wild won the last two, they need to tighten up defensively and eliminate the two-on-one breaks.
Michael Russo, of the Star Tribune, wrote that Mike Yeo will keep the same lineups tonight noting that Yeo needs “four lines who can play regular minutes.” Also, Yeo noted that he wants to keep Stephane Veilleux, Kyle Brodziak, and Erik Haula on the fourth line because of how effective they have been on the penalty-kill. The Wild have killed off their last 25 penalty kills and have not allowed a power-play goal since the All-Star break. Read Russo’s blog here which outlines the Western Conference teams battling for a playoff spot and their remaining schedules.
P.S. Happy Late Valentine’s Day! Watch Nordy make some home deliveries for Valentine’s day below:
Here are my three bold predictions for tonight’s game:
1. Schroeder’s return: Tonight will be Jordan Schroeder‘s first game back in Vancouver, the team that originally drafted him in the first round. Schroeder scored in the Wild’s win against the Canucks last Monday and got his second goal of the year against the Hurricanes on Saturday. He has speed, and a nice wrister, look for him to tally his third goal of the season and make the Canucks regret letting him go.
2. Haula-Back: We are seeing flashes of the Erik Haula from last year’s post-season. Haula scored off his skate on Saturday and is flying around the ice with determination. He also been very effective on the PK. Look for him to put in some big minute again tonight and record his 6th of the season.
3. Multi-Mikko: Mikko Koivu has been an assists machine lately. He has 8 points (1-7) in his last 6 games and seems to have found a lot of chemistry playing alongside Zach Parise and Jason Pominville. Watch Mikko make some more clutch passes tonight and record yet another multi-point game.

Don't you know, sentimental father daughter quotes can totally express your boundless love for your father since you, two, share a special bond.
It's inarguable that the father plays a vital role in building a warm house and the children's growth, especially the daughters. As the father-daughter relationship is an unbreakable bond, many girls tend to express their love to their parents.
If you are one of them and you wish to find some father daughter messages for the gift you've prepared, or just to share the love with your father/daughter, then you've come to the right place.
Nearly everyone agrees that parenting holds a key role in children's development, from mental health, social skills, and academic performance to success. While many think that the mother is more important in bringing the children, the fact is that both parents have a remarkable influence on them. The father is crucial, too.
The appearance of the father in a daughter's life is essential. Not only does a good bond with her father shape a girl's childhood, but it also impacts her attitude toward other men in her future life.
The nature of this relationship can significantly affect who the daughter will become when she grows up.
With fathers' presence in life, girls have a healthy sense of who they are, and a clearer understanding of what they wish to obtain. They tend to be more self-assured and confident as a result.
Fathers help to build daughters' self-esteem.
Fathers can influence how their daughters perceive their bodies.
There's a correlation between the academic abilities between fathers and daughters.
Fathers impact the behavior of their daughters.
Fathers affect their daughters' social characteristics.
Fathers show their daughters how men should treat women.

Fathers help to define non-romantic relationships for their little girls.
Fathers will become the daughter’s role models.
Dads give daughters a feeling of safety. Girls are free to express all their emotions and share sadness and happiness with their dads. Their support helps girls to become strong and reach their best status.
A daughter is a special gift that God has given to a father. She makes his life fulfilled. Nothing is more crucial to an aging parent than a daughter.
As this little girl is the dad's blood and treasure, he is willing to sacrifice everything for the daughter to give her a happy life.
This quote from Lady Gaga tells us how important her daddy is and how much she loves this great man. It also means that dad is the most protective man to daughter, and it's so lucky for someone to find a man who is as good as a dad.
A father-daughter relationship is a two-way positive one. Receiving love from dad, the daughter feels the same way for him and finds him a big motivation in life. Fathers always stay in their hearts. Dads help heal their baby girls' souls whenever life is hard, just like a light in the darkest periods.
The beautiful bond between dads and daughters will never be broken. These sweet father and daughter bond quotes will remind you of this extra special bond that male parents share with their daddy's girls.
Being the role model, daddy just shows us the way he lives, the way he treats others, and the way he looks at the world around him. We can see and learn every beautiful little thing from him.
Dad, together with mom, teaches his small girl everything from the little things such as saying the first word and knowing the surrounding items to bigger things like building confidence, coping with difficulties, loving herself, and so on. Dad also teaches us that we are unique and we should value ourselves. How great fathers are!
A lot of people usually say that you can meet a prince just because you are a princess. This is not true for all. Many girls just find themselves a little princesses since their fathers are kings, who give the whole kingdom to them.
The moment a baby kid is born, most fathers find it unforgettable. It is the second that completes their life and starts their sacred fatherhood.
Dad is among the few men who love everything about us, even our weakness or something untamed inside. It's just simply because we are daddy's daughters.
Fatherhood can be as hilarious as it is rewarding, as these following funny father and daughter quotes show us. Using these sayings can make your dad chuckle and make his day, so read on.
We all know that parents regard their kids as treasures. At the same time, they also lead to mommy and daddy several problems. Daughters are truly adorable trouble.
Not holding hands but standing behind the daughters' back, this message about dads is so cute. Daughters can rely on fathers even once they are mature women. They always have their fathers' back no matter what happens.
Little daughters look up to dad as an ideal Superman. Dads are the strongest heroes in the eyes, who always come to their rescue when they need help.
A little girl always thinks her dad is a Superman just because he does anything to satisfy and protect her. When the daughter grows up, she realizes that her father is also an ordinary person like everybody else!
This saying is so hilarious, cute, and quite heart-touching as well. Fathers fall for their daughters for no reason. Troublesome as daddy's girls are sometimes, nothing can prevent dads from loving them.
Father is the first male person in a daughter's life, teaching her how to love a person of the opposite gender. This is a unique bond that no romantic relationship can replace.
A daughter looks up to his father as her model. He clears thorns out of her path, gives her wise advice, and encourages her to make it to the end. This is also the reason for his companion with his daughter to walk down the aisle at her wedding.
No matter how mature you grow, you are your dad's little daughter forever, and nothing will change your bond with dad.
This is a sweet confirmation that the daughter may grow bigger, but she never goes out of dad's heart.
For those who wonder why fathers are so powerful, the answer is because of their small warm home, and of course, their daughters. They are an endless source of motivation for their daddy.

For a complete jiu-jitsu the Gracie Barra Method has been put together to make universal the teaching methods from the most experienced Gracie Barra teachers.
“Master Carlos Gracie Jr. believes that proper teaching does not make winning the ultimate goal. The greatest victories at Gracie Barra are always a consequence of the process and of embracing training as the best method through which one can test their personal limits.”
I have a number of students with previous experience learning jiu-jitsu at other schools who come to my Gracie Barra school which follows the GB Curriculum 16 weeks plan.
For the majority of the students it is their first time training at an academy that uses a structured training curriculum. And it is BY FAR the most common positive feedback I receive after several weeks of training.
“At first, I wasn’t sure about the rigidity of training under a set curriculum. But now I appreciate the progression each week. I feel like my training is progressing.”
Another student said “Sometimes I felt at my previous jiu-jitsu school that the instructor would just show up to class and teach some random technique that he had thought about on his way to teach class. There didn’t seem to be any sort of plan at all.”
Now that instructor was no doubt knowledgeable and was enthusiastic about teaching jiu-jitsu, but without a training plan, the students are not receiving the best possible instruction. With a haphazard approach to learning all of the positions, there will likely be gaps in the positions coveted over a training period of several months.
The Gracie Barra Curriculum has been planned by Master Carlos Gracie Jr. with the input of many experienced GB professors to structure the training weeks in order to best cover every one of the major ground positions in jiu-jitsu.
In the absence of a set curriculum, an instructor may unconsciously ignore certain positions (e.g. Bottom side control) in favor of teaching some more advanced submissions. Practicing submissions is fun! But the truth is the student NEEDS attention and training in those less glamorous areas of jiu-jitsu such as escapes and defending in bottom positions.
Secondly, if an instructor is especially proficient at top or bottom game they may be quite naturally to teach those positions most often over a period of time. However, they may be unaware that they have neglected some important positions that the students most need.
Another blue belt student’s feedback : “Before I knew some moves from my favorite positions but was lost outside of my main game. After training under a comprehensive curriculum, I can say I know what to do in EVERY position.”
Another important aspect of the GB Method is the inclusion of training standup / take downs in every class. Many bjj schools neglect this aspect of jiu-jitsu as in sport competition they may simply sit to guard in a match.
The Gracie Barra Curriculum also specifies a specific category of technique every week so that students may over time be exposed to a wide variety of takedown types.
“At my old school we almost never did takedowns. Now I feel MUCH more confident in knowing what to do in the stand up portion of a match.”
GB Blog and GB social media post the weekly training plan for all Gracie Barra academies all over the world so it is easy to find out what the current week is covering.

[Not part of article] On April 22, a movie is coming out entitled “The Game of Their Lives.” It is based on the unlikely win by an American team in the 1950 World Cup against the England Team. This is an interview with the real life Walter Bahr, portrayed in the film as the captain of the team.
In 1950, a dishwasher, a mail carrier, and a schoolteacher walked onto the field in Brazil to play for an unrated US soccer team against the favored English team to play The Game of Their Lives. With the world not giving them a second thought, 11 men showed America why soccer is the greatest game in the world. The ‘miracle on grass’ serves as a testament to what we love most about soccer and indeed sport itself: the underdog.
The magic of that game cannot be far from one of the heroes of the game, Walter Bahr, who made the winning assist. With Manchester United battling it out on his television and with a Soccer Hall of Fame ring on his hand, his love for soccer transcends his politeness as he talks about the film, taking part in soccer history, and life after the game.
How does it feel to know that your life is going to be on screens nationwide?
I have reservations about that. I never met the fellow that’s playing my part: Wes Bentley. What they tried to do was get actors that were decent soccer players, rather than get decent soccer players that could do a little acting because they wanted to make it as realistic as possible. Of all the actors that they got Wes Bentley was one of the few that did not have a soccer background. It was interesting to see it, but he and I certainly don’t look alike. [Laughing] I’m a lot better looking.
One of my reservations about the movie is that I don’t think they depict Bill Jeffries as he actually was. He was the coach of the Penn State team in 1950 and also the coach of this World Cup team. He was a much stronger coach, stronger personality than he’s depicted in the movie.
Another mistake which bothers me a little bit: I was captain of the national team for about a ten year period, but in the second game against England, Ed McIlvenny, who was born in Scotland, was the captain. That was a big honor for a Scotsman to be captain in the game against England. For the third game, they were back to my captaincy, but in the movie I’m depicted as the captain against England.
Is this the most excitement you’ve seen for the game since 1950?
Back in 1950 the world cup wasn’t as big an event as it is today, and for 25 or 30 years not much was made of the World Cup or of our victory down in Brazil. But as the world cup grew in stature this game seemed to grow along with it, so every 4 years when the world cup comes around there’s always something done that brings up the 1950 game.
The trailer depicts your character as kind of like the Danny Ocean of soccer assembling this motley crew of dishwashers and such, is that how it really happened?
Yes and no, the film is basically true the score still winds up the same 1-0. The way they put the team together was not quite the same way they depicted in the movie. But it wasn’t a scientific method that they had, and what they did, I mean they knew who the better players were around the country or they though they did. And the selection committee made their selections from lists that they had.
Basically, politics and whatever involved, selections and so forth, they picked the team 8 players from the Wwest and 8 players from the East; 16 players. And at that time there were no substitutions in games, so the 11 that started, they had to finish the game. If someone got hurt you had to finish the game with 1 less. If someone was thrown out by an official, you played with 2 less.
The movie makes a big deal out of the chemistry amongst the players. Did that play a part in the success?
There were players that were on that team that had a fairly good connection to each other, but as a whole team no, not really. But the chemistry did work out, and that’s half of putting a team together. You don’t always have your best team when you have the best players; I think you have your best team when you have your best collection of players hit it off with one another.
Going into the England match what was the atmosphere like amongst the players.
Against England, no one expected to win, but no one goes on the field expecting to lose. You always think ‘maybe a miracle will happen, maybe something will happen, we can stay in this game.’ So it was number one, maybe we can win; but realistically, we were hoping to keep the game close. As any athlete in any sport when they walk on the field, there’s a certain confidence that ‘maybe something will happen and we can win this game.’
We got that goal late in the first half and then even at half-time we thought ‘they’re gonna come out there and put 2, 3, 4 goals in us.’ But we still hoped that we could keep the score close. But, the longer the game went on – like in most of the games – the underdog starts to get a little more confident and the favored team starts to get a little bit more desperate and we were able to hang on for the 1-0 win.
So how do you explain the win?
It happens in sports. It would be like the Altoona Curve beating the New York Yankees. That’s how much of a favorite England was to beat us. But that happens, and I’ve always said this, that that’s the good thing about sports, no matter how good your team is, no matter how much better you are than we are, you still have to go out on the field and win that game. And there’s always that possibility that the underdog can win and that’s what happened. We were the complete underdog and we won it.
Well, without disrespect to the other games that you’ve played, would you say that this was the greatest game of your life?
Well, that’s the only game people remember. It had to be one of them, but it was like coaching. A victory never made me feel that much better than a defeat made me feel worse. Our first game was against Spain and we were beating Spain 1-0 with 8 minutes to play, and they got a couple of late goals and beat us. I always thought that that was our best game, we played better in the Spanish game, and we had more of the game then we did when we played against England. No one even remembers our score against Spain, but it bothers me that we played well and lost that game.
I played professional soccer for almost 25 years. I started as a 15 year old getting 5 dollars a game and 3 dollars for a win and I played and the most I made was 50 dollars a game as a professional player but no one made a living out of soccer from my generation. It was fun, and I enjoyed it and I would do it again.
Has the 1950 game with England changed your life?
Oh no, not at all. It’s a fond memory. I worked all my life, I taught school, I coached, I played, raised my family. I can’t say that maybe I get a little bit more recognition and notoriety than I deserve. But because of the [1950 game] people associate me with the World Cup. Everyone does remember the World Cup game against England and because they remember that that has to be my highlight.
All in all I’m hoping that the movie does promote soccer somewhat, that it helps with the promotion, it helps with the professional league and gives a little boost to youth soccer, especially to help spread it more across the country. | <urn:uuid:bf5b43b3-7438-4b27-84a9-783956b19baa> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://greatreporter.com/2005/04/12/interview-walter-bahr-real-life-version-hero-game-their-0/ | 2024-04-25T07:13:47Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712297290384.96/warc/CC-MAIN-20240425063334-20240425093334-00668.warc.gz | en | 0.988993 | 1,703 |
Travel is responsible for about 40% of our emissions in the UK (not including shipping and aviation) and it is something almost all of us can do something about. As we begin to leave fossil fuels behind we open up a future of active travel, electric vehicles and the potential for cleaner air. Safe cycling and walking routes, better public transport, and car share options all play a part.

Allogeneic stem cell transplant is a current treatment option for patients with refractory/relapsed classic Hodgkin’s Lymphoma, including those who have failed an autologous transplantation.
Hodgkin’s Lymphoma is one of the most curable forms of cancer. The National Cancer Institute reported the five-year Hodgkin’s Lymphoma survival rate was 69.9% in 1975 and 85.4% in 2009. This increase is due to advancements in high-dose salvage chemotherapy and stem cell transplants for relapsed patients. The occurrence of relapse after 10 years is rare.
Some variables can increase or decrease the chance of surviving Hodgkin’s Lymphoma. Some examples are general health at diagnosis, other medical conditions, and whether the cancer is recurrent or progressive.
Other factors that affect survival include, stage of disease, age, sex, response to treatment, albumin level, white blood cell count and lymphocyte count, low hemoglobin and subtype of Hodgkin’s Lymphoma. | <urn:uuid:a8ac5957-f21e-4f92-83cd-ed826a351c1b> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://greenjaytherapeutics.com/hodgkins-lymphoma/ | 2024-04-25T08:18:59Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712297290384.96/warc/CC-MAIN-20240425063334-20240425093334-00668.warc.gz | en | 0.888056 | 220 |

Imagine you could take your smartphone and go back in time fifty years. The year is 1970. You pass someone on the street and show them the piece of aluminum, plastic and glass in your hand. You proceed to explain to them that this device allows you to call or instantly message anyone in the world. It is connected to vast libraries of information, can provide directions, and provide answers to any questions you or they might have. It has a voice interface that allows you to talk to it and receive spoken answers.
Given the popularity of 2001: A Space Odyssey (the book and the film), which was released 2 years earlier, the person might assume you were showing them a movie prop. They would hardly believe that such a device would ever be possible, even though Stanley Kubrik and Arthur C. Clarke foreshadowed these and many other technical innovations in their breakthrough movie.
And therein lies the main reason science fiction has become one of my primary reading genres.
What I described above is just one example of the amazingly accurate portrayals of future technologies described in books by Arthur C. Clarke, Isaac Asimov, Alduous Huxley, George Orwell, Philip K. Dick, William Gibson, Neal Stephenson, Kurt Vonnegut and numerous others.
Yes, science fiction stories entertain, but they do more than that. They open the imagination to what is possible. The authors aren’t bound by the technological limits of today. They build upon trends, research, and ideas to come up with future scenarios that can be hard to comprehend when we look at them through the lens of available information today. But this is why I enjoy reading it so much. It encourages you think outside the box. It provides a window to the future.
While I’m not the biggest fan of TED talks, this short TED-ed video is a great summary of the power of science fiction to influence and shape the future.
I have no doubt that the writing of today’s top science fiction authors, which includes the likes of William Hertling, Daniel Suarez, Hugh Howey, Blake Crouch, Eliot Peper, A.G. Riddle, Ramez Naam, and others, will have just as much of an influence on the future as the authors listed above. To keep it balanced, I’ve been trying to keep a good mix of both past and current science fiction writers in my reading list. It’s interesting, fun, and amazing to see the technologies that were foreshadowed in past books. Reading current science fiction really opens my mind up and excites me about the possibilities of the future.
As one of my favorite bloggers, Brad Feld, pointed out a few years ago, it might be possible to figure out the future by reading sci-fi from the past. Likewise, you may be able to see into the future by reading current science fiction. No matter what your preference is, past or future, there is a lot you can learn from both.
In any case, it’s the reason I read science fiction. It’s a window to the future, and one that can be entertaining, interesting, and fun to peer into. I’d encourage you to take a peek. | <urn:uuid:e6edbc28-c184-4b4c-bd2d-3cb950519e63> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://greggborodaty.com/why-i-read-science-fiction/ | 2024-04-25T08:23:21Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712297290384.96/warc/CC-MAIN-20240425063334-20240425093334-00668.warc.gz | en | 0.957587 | 662 |
Data as a Utility Tool
Reasoning through a modern data analytics architecture
Welcome to group by 1. In this first post, I’ve started broad with my opinion on a few of the typical compromises made when implementing a modern data warehouse solution. Modern meaning cloud, data warehouse meaning the back-end for an analytics tool. This post is a primer for my future content.
Within the companies I have worked for and plan on working for, uncertainty is a common thread. Sales may continue to accelerate, funding should land next quarter, we hope to keep in touch. The uncertainty may be more concrete. We should change to a new CRM. We probably need to stop reporting in Excel.
I’ve put together some opinions on what has worked for me in managing uncertainty when architecting data systems that need to cater for many parallel futures.
Designing solutions for analytics systems can stylistically or abstractly be described as a problem of two buckets. Bucket one is full of the typical problems a business might have. The business usually then approaches “the data team” with problems such as help us define a metric / store the data / visualise the KPI / distribute the report.
In this simplistic utopia, bucket two, the Solutions Bucket, is typically filled with lots of products and opinions, like Snowflake / Big Query / my last company used Tableau / group by 1 etc.
select * from problems_bucket
inner join (select * from solutions_bucket)
The catch when architecting a solution is that you’re given only one scoop from the solution bucket, with the hope that it covers as many of the items in the problem bucket as possible. The solution bucket is usually very resource-intensive, expensive, time-consuming and gathers momentum once that scoop is moving.
The decision to re-scoop is not going to be taken lightly. The first scoop usually needs to be made under significant uncertainty and pressure. This is a time to be making bets that will serve you in many of your uncertain futures.
For this reason, I invoke the spirit of a prepper, where travelling light is as essential as being prepared. Enter the Swiss army knife.
My ideal scoop of the solution bucket, like a good utility tool, has a nice healthy mix of scalability, ease of use, and utilitarian functionality. Bare metal that stands the test of time and rests easily on the hip, ready for action!
More concretely, a lightweight data architecture describes modularity, where each component plays a specified part in the greater whole, without restricting the system. This enables upgrading, downgrading and replacing as necessary.
With that in mind, I’ll be describing my opinion / experience / preference for a utilitarian data architecture.
The context of this article skews heavily to the typical first-hired-one-person-data-team scenario and is generally applicable if that person is within a small business, a startup or a small team within a larger organisation. It can be extended to a data team within a larger organisation that is rethinking their architecture.
New paradigms start from the ground up, and so it can safely be assumed that this paradigm will be what banks implement in 50 years while the rest of us use quantum computing to think the data into order.
The driver for this workflow arises from the need to centralise data across multiple systems, typically at the point where there are 3+ key business apps or systems.
If you're the one called in to take over from the last guy who burnt the ETL (extract-transform-load) candle on both ends and now has a 1000 yard stare, then this might hit a nerve.
Ingesting, Storing, Transforming, Distributing. Four verbs for four (4) sections that describe what will be covered, and the order.
I generally subscribe to the opinion that engineers should avoid writing custom ETL code whenever practically possible, and rather use a managed SaaS ETL tool. This resembles the corkscrew of our Swiss army knife. Powerful and simple.
Managed ETL tools allow you to connect to your supported sources, point those at your data warehouse and have data flowing in a matter of minutes. You are paying for specialisation here. Post-implementation, the ETL specialist at the end of an intercom is worth their (initially) nominal fee.
If you cannot get your data into your data warehouse with a managed ETL, or you cannot strike the cost/benefit balance, then you’ll have to start building. This is a great time to think about the possibility of contracting the work to a specialist. They’ll bring the expertise, and over time you can consider internalising that skill as you see fit. Because the work is narrowly described and easily measured, this is a great piece of work for outsourcing. Budget for a maintenance contract, and keep an eye on those Managed ETL services as a replacement option over time.
Some additional thoughts:
Ingesting raw data (JSON or tables) into your data warehouse is key. Don’t spend time at this point doing transforms in python, there isn’t time. ETL has been surpassed by ELT (extract-load-transform). This new paradigm is now established.
A Google sheet is a data source. Time is of the essence and done is better than perfect. Data validation, spreadsheet protection and read-only permissions do a database maketh. Use this one sparingly, as word may get out.
Balancing the trifecta of scalability, cost and performance is key when picking the backbone of your system. Your data may start small, or large, or small with a risk of growing large. Stopping to change a tire in bear country is never a good look, and neither is a data warehouse migration.
Managed data warehouses balance the trifecta, with scalability from a team of 1 to 100(n), megabytes to terabytes+, cost starting near zero, and performance flexibility to suit your budget and need.
Your contract for a data warehouse should begin near $0 and go up from there. Start negotiating your unit costs down once the value of the contract becomes significant, or sooner. The point is that you can get started, prove value, and iron out the details down the line.
Snowflake is a good start, Big Query does wonders. Microsoft is probably up to something with Azure. Redshift is squarely in the migrated_from
category. All can scale beyond your VC backer's wildest dreams.
This is the knife of your Swiss army knife, simply put, a knife needs to be sharp, a data warehouse needs to be powerful. The main attraction.
Pliers apply leverage. A Swiss army knife doesn’t have pliers, which is why no one owns one, preferring a utility-tool. Loosely applying the same logic, the Transformation Layer has long been the missing link in the analytics stack, with various frustrating attempts at enabling elegant management of transformations.
The broad goal here is to enable access to your data for your business users while abstracting away as much of the source system complexity as possible. The outcome is clean, documented, coherent, reliable, logical, self-explanatory and performant data that can be relied upon by the Distributing tools. This is the highest leverage point in your pipeline. Leverage that magnifies both gains and mistakes.
SQL is the language of analysis, and a collection of SQL scripts best describes the transformation of data landed RAW
in your data warehouse to ultimately transformed and ready for ANALYTICS
. The Analytics mentioned here is the schema that you expose to your Distributing tools.
Dataform is a tool that takes that simple concept and runs with it, making writing sophisticated transformations a delight for analysts. Simply explained, Dataform is a SQL editor that enables analysts to build complex transformations in a way that is maintainable and interpretable. Dataform is differentiated by three concepts from software engineering that are put in the hands of the analyst:
1/ Continuous Deployment
A deployment of new code or changes to your transforms should be a thing that happens continuously, and without fear. This is achieved through automated schema tests, continuously deploying code, and data validity and quality tests. This is achieved through the assertions
in Dataform, among other useful features.
2/ Version Control
If your job involves writing SQL code, and doesn't involve version control, then perhaps more than anything else, this article was written for you.
### TODO - setup a BI tool
Distribution of data. Commonly described as an Analytics Tool or BI tool aka The Last Mile delivery problem.
In a physical product, and an analytics project, the last mile of delivery is often both the most expensive and time-consuming part of the delivery mechanism. This is the point where the surface area expands massively, and the usage pattern permutations explode. Bluntly; the neatly organised cookie-cutter data pipeline gets punched in the face by the needs of the user.
The utility-tool analogy falls apart somewhat at this point, as arguably the pliers should be used here. Just like this utility-tool, it can get a bit confusing.
Broadly speaking the distribution problem gets broken into two categories. BI tools and Analytics Tools. The distinction is murky, like your requirements. Generally speaking, these tools are either:
1/ Good at solving the operational reporting problems of business: Metrics, KPIs, lots of users, lots of operational complexity (tools like Looker, Metabase).
2/ Good at solving the analysts’ problems: complicated questions, nuanced analysis, vague outcomes, forecasts, predictions (tools like Mode, Periscope, Jupyter Notebooks).
A rule of thumb is that you need a good few business users who are comfortable writing complicated SQL or Python before Option 2 will be feasible. This decision is largely based on the operational complexity and technical fluency of the stakeholders in this grand adventure, and generally Option 1 is more broadly applicable.
If you’ve done good work in your Transforming layer, then you can get away with a compromise here, and use a cheaper tool as a stop-gap, or use an array of tools, or allow the team to choose whatever suits them. Ultimately, you want to trend towards a single source of truth for KPI / Metric type numbers, and aim to automate their delivery.
I've honed in on my preferred data stack, described below. This stack is likely a feasible option for your goals if they are related to aligning your business on key metrics. Especially so if you have multiple SaaS or custom software systems floating around that drive these metrics. What you’ll end up with is something like the following diagram.
Ingesting/ As mentioned, I prefer to use a SaaS ELT tool like Stitch or Fivetran, as they reduce the need for ongoing maintenance where possible. Stitch is the cheaper option, and a great low-cost starting point, with the following useful additions:
It has a great Import API that allows some simplification of ELT scripts if you do need to write them.
It has a useful Google Sheets Integration, as well as the usual Postgres, Hubspot, Salesforce, Google/Facebook ads etc.
Snowflake scales up to enterprise but starts from $2/credit, so can be a very cost-effective bet with typical small loads running around 2-5 credits per day. This can get very expensive if you don’t manage it carefully with limits.
PostgreSQL will require a migration in the future, so unless you are very cost sensitive, the cost / benefit generally leans in favour of Snowflake.
Distributing/ This is where business users will interact with and judge the success of your system, so to spend your budget on the rest of the components but cut corners on the distribution tool is a bad idea. That said, BI tools can have expensive annual contracts.
These tools are trickier to migrate from, and so it is reasonable to expect to be locked-in for the mid-term.
Transforming/ This may be premature depending on the level of sophistication of logical transformations required to answer your questions, but at some stage it will make sense to move your transforms to the data warehouse from the BI tool.
There is relatively little involved in adding this from the start, and significant gains to be had if used to build a logical data model from the start.
I have deployed Metabase successfully with https and nice scalability using these Docker scripts.
In future editions I’ll be diving into the above specifics, stay tuned.
Taking the time to properly implement a reasoned and scalable analytics infrastructure is an axe sharpening exercise with benefits that may compound massively over time. Second-order benefits to aim for include increasing the data proficiency of your team, enabling evidence-based decision making and most importantly, increasing alignment.
Most businesses follow similar patterns, and in survival as in business, preparation is key.
“Give me six hours to chop down a tree and I will spend the first four sharpening the axe.” - Abe

The report follows an in-depth inspection by five inspectors last month and is a glowing endorsement of the education provided to 400 girls aged 4 to 18 at the school in Falmouth Road, Truro.
The report concluded: “The school is highly successful in fulfilling its aim to provide an inspirational learning environment where all pupils are nurtured to thrive.”
Academic achievements were graded ‘Excellent’ with inspectors noting; “From the youngest age, pupils are eloquent and sophisticated communicators in a variety of media”. Pupils’ personal development is also ‘Excellent’ with the report stating: “Pupils have high levels of self-confidence and are well-prepared for the next stage of their lives.”
Headmistress Sarah Matthews welcomed the ISI report saying: “I am absolutely overjoyed that the ISI inspectors were able to see the incredible work that goes on within the walls of Truro High. As expected, our girls shone. The feedback was exceptional and noted the girls outstanding attitude towards learning and their strong sense of community.”
“The inspectors commented on the high levels of motivation, articulate communications and the excellent development of higher-order thinking skills that allow the girls to think with breadth and depth across all age groups. Also noted were the consistently high levels of self-confidence, self-awareness and strong moral development, along with the culture of mutual respect.”
“We are proud that the inspectors recognised how our expert teachers challenge our students to think for themselves and to work independently, feeding them with knowledge and inspiration. The report also noted our outstanding provision for enrichment activities, recognising the wide variety of opportunities available and the impressive levels of participation. We could not be more proud.”
The report rounds off a glittering few months for the school which is a finalist for three top education awards for its Early Years and STEM provision as well as being ranked as one of the top boarding schools in the world by US-based Fortune magazine. | <urn:uuid:3425ed3f-2da9-43db-8d11-d6c124c2c1bf> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://gsa.uk.com/2023/05/truro-high-graded-excellent-in-all-areas-by-independent-schools-inspectorate/ | 2024-04-25T08:15:08Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712297290384.96/warc/CC-MAIN-20240425063334-20240425093334-00668.warc.gz | en | 0.974629 | 423 |

Home to no less than 53 14,000ft peaks, Colorado is the most mountainous state in the Lower 48. In amongst those mountains are some world-famous ski areas, and there are few skiers on the planet who haven't dreamt of exploring them!
LessThe Boxcar Couloir is the highlight of this line with tight turns and rocks walls that tower above you. At some points, a jump turn is mandatory because it gets so narrow. Skiing between rock walls that stretch up hundreds of feet is a very unique and exciting experience! Add on the fact that the route includes a second couloir from the summit of a 14er and there aren’t many lines in the state that can beat this.
The Birthday Chutes are a pair of wide, 35-degree chutes on the shoulder of Silver Mountain, near Telluride Ski Resort. They offer some of the most reliable backcountry skiing in the Telluride area, holding cold snow long after storms due to their shady aspect, high elevation, and protection from the wind. Easily accessible from the ski area boundary, the Birthday Chutes are a classic intermediate tour with short approach.
McMillan Peak, at an elevation of 12,804 feet, is the easiest and most accessible summit in the beautiful Red Mountain Pass corridor. This peak sits near the top of the pass, which is also dubbed the “Million Dollar Highway,” for its stunning views and precipitous drop-offs. From the parking lot at the top of the pass, powder meadows and glades abound, but the peaks themselves are jagged and difficult to climb. McMillan peak is an exception, and can be climbed on skins in a couple of hours.
This ski mountaineering route has some of the best challenging-but-not-extreme ski lines in the Elks. The challenge of this route comes with playing the different aspects so that all five ski descents can be accomplished in one enduring mission.
A ski mountaineering route that takes you to the most beautiful view of North Maroon and then has you ski it!
Silver Couloir is probably the most well known couloir in Summit County and is included as one of the 50 Classic Ski Descents of North America (50classicskidescents.com). This is for good reason as the couloir is about 2,500 feet of wide open turns and aesthetic views. Access is easy and at just over five miles round trip, this couloir is fairly easy to accomplish.
This is just an all-around fun route that everyone should enjoy. Expect a fairly easy hike up, a short but thrilling couloir, and a playful ski down a gulley back to the trailhead.
This long and beautiful ski tour takes you up the Cornet Creek drainage from the town of Telluride, over a high mountain pass, and down through Marshall basin and the Tomboy ghost town before returning you back to Telluride. While the skiing itself is moderate in difficulty, the tour is long and requires a full day to complete. The views in each of the basins are magnificent, and the vista from the divide at the highpoint of the day will leave you speechless.
Snodgrass is a nice place to take a hike in the woods. There are a few short powder stashes in the trees where you can find some good turns. Along the skin track, you will pass by a few openings in the trees that have some spectacular views of Mount Crested Butte. This is a good place to go when avalanche danger is high, you’re new to the backcountry, or you’re just looking for a mellow tour.
High Voltage is one of the many runs in the Montezuma area that offers fun gully skiing. The North facing aspect holds snow well and the 30-35 degree slopes offer the perfect angle for fun powder skiing. Don’t get too relaxed though, this is an avalanche path so make sure conditions are safe before choosing this line. | <urn:uuid:267103f8-1476-40b0-bf05-63240236e659> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://guides.apple.com/?pg=8614200986161170787&lsp=9902&name=10-of-the-best-ski-tours-in-colorado | 2024-04-25T07:56:17Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712297290384.96/warc/CC-MAIN-20240425063334-20240425093334-00668.warc.gz | en | 0.956169 | 832 |
What Are the Causes of Baldness? Alopecia is commonly referred to as balding and it also results in hair loss. Hair loss has become a common problem in men and women. The hair loss problem has become a widely spread issue not only in men and women, even teens and adults are also experiencing it. Ture hair loss occurs when no new hairs grow to replace the place of old ones. So, in this article, we will explain the causes of balding and prevention to boost hair growth.
Alopecia affects the scalp. It often results in hair loss. Shedding 100 strands in a day is a natural hair growth cycle. But it becomes a problem when new hair doesn’t grow. However, you have to understand that hair fall and hair loss are two different types of hair problems. Today we will figure out the most common causes of balding and also learn how to fix them.

What Are the Causes of Baldness?
Causes of Baldness: The medical term for balding is androgenetic alopecia. Most people experience hair loss as they get older. Hair loss often relates to genetics and aging. Besides, there could be other causes of hair loss, like an underlying medical condition, stress, hormones, etc.
In men, it is called male pattern baldness, and in women, it is known as female pattern baldness. You can easily tackle this type of baldness if you identify the causes. The main causes of balding or hair loss are given below.
- Nutritional deficiency.
- Underlying medical conditions and medications.
- Mental and Physical Stress.
- Imbalance Hormones.
Imbalance diet or lack of healthy food intake is the biggest culprit of hair loss. Nutritional deficiency can lead to baldness and hair loss for the selected period. If your body is lacking essential vitamins such as vitamin A, B vitamins, vitamin C, vitamin D, and Vitamin D, then you may experience hair problems such as hair loss.
Other vitamins such as iron, zinc, and protein also play a vital role in hair growth. You may prefer fast foods, and therefore your body doesn’t get enough nutrients. So, you should switch to healthy foods like fruits and vegetables to get essential nutrients every day.
Underlying Medical Conditions and Medication
Medical conditions are also a reason for hair loss. Some medical conditions come with negative side effects, such as temporary hair loss. The medicines used for treatment can be powerful, and they may cause permanent hair loss.
People also get stressed due to prolonged sickness or recent surgery. Hair loss is caused by a number of medical conditions, including thyroid disease, severe infection, and iron deficiency. Apart from sickness, some types of infection, like fungal infection, can also lead to hair loss.
Mental and Physical Stress
People often start losing more hair when they are going through mental trauma and mental stress. There are many types of mental stress, such as headaches, body pain, panic attacks, etc. Many times, people relate hair loss with stress. However, it’s true that numerous studies have linked stress with hair loss. This cause of hair loss can be treated by ensuring mental health and well-being.
Imbalanced hormones can be a result of illness, age, medications, or body changes. Hormones can cause many changes in our bodies. However, one of these changes can be hair loss. In women, hormones may shift because of birth control pills, childbirth, menopause, pregnancy, etc. There are some signs of hormonal change that we have mentioned in detail.
Changes In Hairline:
In the beginning, most people observe hair thinning near the temples. Hair thinning results in noticeable changes in the hairline and then hair loss. To prevent or monitor hair loss, take some photos of the hairline every other month so that you can identify the level of hair loss.
And this way, you can get the best medical help when you show them the previous hair condition.
Causes of Balding – Hair Replacement:
Tracking the hair replacement cycle is another way to measure hair loss. The hair cycle refers to hair replacement in place of old hair. When you shed hair, a new hair grows in place of that hair, and this is called the hair cycle. However, in baldness, it is not necessary to count fallen hairs, but how fast new hair grows is more important.
Excessive Hair Loss After Shower:
It is normal to lose 50-100 strands every day when you brush your hair or take a shower. However, shedding more than 10 hair strands throughout the day is a sign of hair loss.
But don’t worry, it may be a result of temporary stress or any of the causes mentioned above. But if you are experiencing continuous hair fall, then you need medical help. Visit your hair professional to get a diagnosis and treatment. Permanent balding is not preventable, but you can reduce the risk by following a healthy hair routine, a nutrient-rich diet, and meditation.
Causes of Balding – Bottom Line
A vast number of people are experiencing balding. However, there are some treatments and preventions for hair loss. You can reverse hair loss by following the tips offered by experts and dermatologists. In the case of severe hair loss, you should seek medical help. They may help you by recommending medications and the best treatments available to slow down hair loss.
A cure for alopecia has yet to be discovered, but in the meantime, you should take care of your mental and physical health. Although alopecia doesn’t pose any threat to your physical health, mental health, emotional health, and confidence can be affected. You have to be strong and start exploring the groups, treatments, and organizations that may be helpful for hair loss and make life easier. | <urn:uuid:b411896d-4b8a-41ce-b4d9-784e5ed8b078> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://hairsolutionsblog.com/causes-of-baldness/ | 2024-04-25T08:27:53Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712297290384.96/warc/CC-MAIN-20240425063334-20240425093334-00668.warc.gz | en | 0.959658 | 1,219 |

“At the start of the year (which feels like decades ago), Courtroom View Network released our widely-read lists of CVN’s Top 10 Most Impressive Plaintiff Verdicts and Top 10 Most Impressive Defense Verdicts of 2019.
While both lists highlight major trial victories for some of the country’s most elite plaintiff and defense attorneys in CVN’s video archive, many of the most interesting trials CVN filmed and webcast in 2019 don’t fall neatly into either category because of mid-trial settlements, mistrials, or quirks in the verdict.
Here is a look at 10 high-stakes trials CVN covered last year that didn’t qualify for either list, but that we still think deserve an honorable mention due to the potential for a verdict that would have made our year-end roundups.
You can get access to all of these trials, plus all the trials on our 2019 top 10 lists, plus all the trials from our last five year’s worth of top 10 lists, plus hundreds more trials with a no-contract $99/month subscription to CVN’s online video trial library – the only video collection of gavel-to-gavel civil trials anywhere in the world.
Beyanca Martinez, et al, v. King Easley, et al
Potentially $100M suit against security company settles during jury deliberations
Plaintiff counsel: Chris Hamilton (pictured), Ray Khirallah (Hamilton Wingo LLP)
Defense counsel: Christopher White (Lewis Brisbois Bisgaard & Smith LLP)
Link to video of the full trial:
Why it made the list:
A case in Dallas, Texas that could have resulted in one of the largest personal injury verdicts CVN covered in 2019 settled during jury deliberations following a weeklong trial.
The family of a motorcyclist who crashed into a turning armored truck sued security company GardaWorld over the accident.
Virgilio Garcia was riding alongside and slightly behind a Garda truck that suddenly attempted to make a left turn from the far right lane. He slammed into the side of the truck and died at the scene.
Police initially blamed Garcia for the accident, citing his excessive speed (an argument repeated by Garda at trial), but surveillance video discovered after the accident prompted his wife, Beyanca Martinez, to file a lawsuit and police to charge the truck’s driver, King Easley, with negligent homicide – though a grand jury later declined to return an indictment.
Attorney Chris Hamilton, representing the plaintiffs, asked for between $80 – $100 million in damages during his closing statement.
During his closing statement on behalf of Garda, attorney Chris White conceded that the truck’s driver made an illegal turn from the far right lane but argued Garcia also bore responsibility for the accident.”

asked the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry (1) what official visits are currently planned by representatives of participants in the Alvey programme, or members of the Alvey directorate, to (a) the United States of America and (b) Japan with a view to the discussion of collaborative projects;(2) what official visits are currently planned by representatives of participants in the Alvey programme, or
members of the Alvey directorate, to
(a) the United States of America and (b) Japan, with a view to the discussion or the sale of research information obtained through Alvey programme work.
No such visits are planned by members of the Alvey directorate and I am not aware of any such visits planned by participants in the Alvey programme. Any exploitation of the results of work funded under the programme outside the European Community would, however, be subject to the agreement of my right hon. and learned Friend the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry.
asked the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry if he will list in the Official Report the projects funded by the Alvey programme to date, indicating in each case the company, university, or research body involved and any intended eventual use of the project.
I am arranging to have details of the projects comprising the Alvey programme placed in the Library of the House.
asked the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry if he will indicate what funds he has made available in each of the financial years 1984–85 and 1985–86 to work undertaken under the Alvey programme.
One hundred and ten million pounds has been allocated to the Alvey programme by the Department of Trade and Industry. Actual expenditure against the DTI Vote in 1984–85 was £6·5 million and is expected to be £18 million in 1985–86.
asked the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry what approaches he has received from the United States Government, or from United States based companies, expressing an interest in the purchase of information technology arising out of civil aspects of the work of the Alvey programme; and what has been his response.
I have received no such approaches.
asked the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry what information he has as to how many official visits to participants in the Alvey programme are currently planned by visitors from the Japanese information technology industry, the United States information technology industry and the United States defence industry, and as to the names and status of the visitors concerned.
I am not aware of any such plans for future visits. As a response to an Alvey-led British visit to ICOT, the Japanese fifth generation computer project. a delegation representing the management committee of ICOT was in the United Kingdom between 21 and 25 October and visited the Alvey directorate and a number of Alvey participants. The delegation comprised:
Mr. Kotaka | Vice President, Engineering NEC Corporation. |
Mr. Enomoto | Senior Manager, Coordination Staff, Technical Planning and Coordinations Division, Toshiba Corporation. |
Mr. Imai | Chief Engineer, Technical Administration Department, Hitachi Ltd. |
Mr. Sakai | Manager, Administration Department, Technology Administration Divisions, Fujitsu Ltd. |
Mr. Suzuki | Associate Director, Engineering Tokyo Branch, Matsushita Electric Industrial Company, Ltd. |
Mr. Yamamoto | Senior Staff, R&D Headquarter, Mitsubishi Electric Group. |
Mr. H. Hiroshige | Senior Executive Director, ICOT. |
Mr. Ichikawa | Manager, Administration Department, ICOT. |
Mr. Kurozumi | Assistant Director, Research Centre. ICOT. |
asked the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry if, pursuant to the answer of 17 December 1984, Official Report column 21, indicating that the majority of the 50 or so firms now participating in the Alvey programme have interests in both civil and defence applications of information technology, he will indicate precisely how many firms fall into this category.
I shall write to the hon. Member.
asked the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry what major advances in the development of advanced information technology have been achieved to date by work carried out under the Alvey programme in each of the following areas (a) software engineering, (b) person/machine interface, (c) intelligent knowledge based systems, (d) very large scale integrated circuits and (e) communications; to what practical use these advances have so far been put; and if he will make a statement.
Alvey is a five-year programme with long-term objectives. Most of the work under the programme is defined and under way but it is early yet to predict quantified results. Some work, such as that in software engineering, may be expected to lead to exploitation within the next year or so; some, such as that in advanced computer architectures, is unlikely to lead to new products before the end of this decade. Progress on projects under way is, however, outlined in the details referred to in my earlier reply to the hon. Member which are being placed in the Library of the House. | <urn:uuid:b9738081-7d6d-48cc-a763-a20685e1a46f> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://hansard.parliament.uk/Commons/1985-10-30/debates/477a35b0-1597-41d2-8709-62f1ef05b9d5/AlveyProgramme | 2024-04-25T08:49:20Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712297290384.96/warc/CC-MAIN-20240425063334-20240425093334-00668.warc.gz | en | 0.951992 | 1,042 |

I am finding myself using Funkys for all of my recent projects, so I am thinking of discontinuing the TinySensor. I think the better approach would be to have various ‘shields’ for the Funky rather having hardware on board that anyone will rarely use, for example the SD card option, the voltage divider or the jeeport on the TinySensor. The only thing that I would be missing is the connectivity to Raspberry Pi, so that I would be able to pick up RFM12b transmissions and post them to emoncms/cosm. So here is a 15-minute veroboard project to interface the Funky to a Raspberry Pi. I am interesting in the 3.3V, GND and the RX, TX pins on the Raspberry Pi’s GPIO header. Here is how it worked out:
So with minor modification to account for the changed RX/TX pins of the RFDemo sketch for Attiny84, it happily replaces the TinySensor. | <urn:uuid:24a077bf-3293-4315-aed3-0bdfbd5e17bc> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://harizanov.com/2012/09/interfacing-funky-to-raspberry-pi/ | 2024-04-25T07:28:43Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712297290384.96/warc/CC-MAIN-20240425063334-20240425093334-00668.warc.gz | en | 0.928713 | 204 |

How to Dose HHC Vape And Keep your Cool.
If you don’t want to find yourself on cloud 99 (because cloud 9 is just fine!), follow these puffy pointers on dosing that HHC vape to have a pleasant first time experience:
- Your first PUFF: Before you soar too high, aim to experience that first puff. Think of it as a sip of a hot drink – just a tiny taste to test the waters… or, in this case, the clouds will go a long way to test your tolerance. We recommend you take one puff and…
- Wait-a-Bit Wonders: After that first puff, sit back, grab some snacks (because munchies!), and wait for about 15-30 minutes. Just like waiting for a pizza delivery – you never know how fast or slow it might hit! Then…
- Tune into your Body: Listen to your body’s signals. Feeling good? Cool, keep cruising. Feeling a bit too floaty? Maybe you’re entering the no-fly zone – time to ground yourself!
- Second Puff’s the Charm: Listening to your body is key here. If after 30 minutes your feeling good. Take one more puff and wait another 30 minutes. After your waiting game, if you feel like you could go higher (but not too high), take another small puff. Imagine you’re adding a marshmallow to your cocoa. Just a bit more sweetness with every puff you take! But don’t forget. We want slow and steady for the first time we try HHC.
- Break Time: Spend an hour doing something chill. Watch a movie, doodle, or just daydream. The aim? Not to climb the HHC mountain too fast. You want to enjoy that scenic route!
- Round Three: Still good? If you’re game for more, take another small puff. Remember, it’s like adding sprinkles to your sundae – you don’t need a ton to make it fun!
- The Evening Wind Down: By now, you’ve hopefully had a nice, controlled ascent to cloud 9. Time to relax, hydrate, and maybe even have a giggle.
Vaping HHC should be a smooth flight, not a rocket launch. With these fun steps, you’ll be the pilot of your own pleasant journey exploring the new Cannabinoid HHC. Continue reading to learn more about properly dosing HHC.
HHC Dosage – Lets Break down mow much HHC your getting per puff.
If you’re wandering in the world of HHC , you’ve probably asked yourself – how much is just right? The essence of the perfect HHC experience lies in mastering the dosage. And as they say, “Too much of anything is bad.” This holds true for HHC as well.
Imagine you have a chocolate bar that weighs 100 grams, but 90% of it is made of the finest, most delicious chocolate, while the remaining 10% is… let’s say, sprinkles!
In this scenario, your 1 gram HHC cart is the chocolate bar, and the HHC content is the tasty chocolate. So if 90% of the 1 gram is HHC, you have 0.9 grams (or 900 milligrams) of HHC in the entire cart.
Now, the tricky part is estimating how much of that HHC-packed chocolate bar you consume with just one puff and how it will affect you.
The average puff for many Hazy Apes might be around 5 milligrams of HHC, but this can vary greatly based on the vape device, user habits, and even how long and deep you take the puff.
If you vape 5mg of HHC, the onset is much quicker (than, say edibles that have to pass through your gut) , usually within minutes. The effects typically peak within 30 minutes to an hour and might last between 2 to 4 hours, though this can vary per person. Which is why we recommend you start slow.
So, imagine taking a puff is like biting off a small piece of that 100-gram chocolate bar. If you were to imagine that the bar was divided into 180 finely segmented chocolate pieces(180×5=900), then one puff would be equivalent to enjoying 5 (5mg of HHC) of those segments.
In summary: One puff from your 90% potent HHC cart is like savoring 5 tiny segments of a chocolate bar filled with 900 segments of pure HHC Bliss!
Why Proper Dosage Matters – Don’t Go Outer Space.
Ever taken just one puff too many and thought, “Uh-oh, Houston, we have a problem”? Picture this: You’re excitedly boarding the HHC Express for a calm trip around the Milky Way. But whoops! You accidentally supercharge your rocket, and now you’re blasting at warp speed toward the Andromeda Galaxy!
Panicking in hyperspace, you think, “I’ve got this!” and swiftly whip out your smartphone, Earth’s guide to pretty much everything. You frantically Google “How to calm down when feeling too high?” But as the pixels dance on your screen, they morph into mini black holes, each pulling you into an endless abyss of information.
One such vortex? An enchanting video titled, “Beginner’s Guide to Astral Projection.” Oh boy! Instead of a soft landing, you’re now floating above your body, touring nebulae, and high-fiving extraterrestrial beings.
What was supposed to be a quick Google search turns into hour-long astral adventures, as time turns squishy and minutes feel like millennia.
And while the cosmic dance is amusing, the takeaway? Moderation, dear astronaut, is the key to enjoying our space trips without ending up on unplanned intergalactic detours.
Importance of Personal Tolerance.
We’re all unique, aren’t we? Just like how we all have our favorite flavors, our tolerance to HHC varies. It’s like spicy food – what’s mild for one might be blazing for another.
With that said, let’s break down how our Earthly attributes like height, weight, metabolism, and physical activity can affect our flight through the cosmic landscape of HHC vape experiences!
1. Height & Weight:
Think of HHC as passengers on a bus and your body as the bus itself. A bigger bus (larger body mass) may need more passengers (HHC) to feel full or crowded than a smaller bus.
Typically, individuals with more body mass might require higher doses of HHC to achieve the same effects as someone with less body mass. However, this isn’t a strict rule; some “big buses” can get crowded quickly!
Metabolism is like the speed at which our bus (body) travels. A faster metabolism means your body processes substances like HHC more quickly. Folks with rapid metabolisms might feel the effects of HHC sooner but for a shorter duration, whereas those with slower metabolisms might take longer to feel the effects but enjoy a more extended high.
3. Physical Activity:
Engaging in regular physical activity can influence how our bodies react to HHC. Exercising regularly might boost your metabolism, affecting how quickly you process HHC. Additionally, some studies suggest that physical activity can influence the amount of HHC stored in fat cells. Active people might have less HHC stored in their body, meaning they could potentially have lower tolerance levels.
In essence, everyone’s journey with HHC is as unique as a star in the night sky. It’s essential to recognize that your reaction can vary based on numerous factors beyond just height, weight, metabolism, and physical activity. Genetics, mental state. Past experiences with cannabis also play crucial roles.
The Risks of Overdosing with HHC
While there are no known cases of fatal overdose solely from HHC, excessive intake can lead to various adverse reactions. It’s crucial to be aware of these to ensure a safe and responsible experience before exploring HHC.
- Cognitive Impairments: High doses can affect cognitive functions, leading to short-term memory issues and altered judgment, which can pose risks, especially if one needs to make crucial decisions or operate machinery.
- Psychological Effects: Overconsumption can manifest in heightened anxiety, paranoia, or even induce transient hallucinatory or psychotic symptoms in predisposed individuals.
- Cardiovascular Impact: An elevated heart rate can result from high HHC intake, which may concern individuals with specific heart conditions.
- Motor Coordination: Impaired motor skills, a consequence of excessive THC, can increase accident risks.
- Physical Discomfort: Symptoms such as dry mouth, red eyes, or even cannabinoid hyperemesis syndrome, characterized by nausea and vomiting, can emerge.
If you suspect that you consumed excessive amounts of HHC, we recommend you seek a calm environment, hydrate, and consult a healthcare professional if symptoms are prolonged or intense.
As with all substances, responsible and informed usage is the best approach.
Let’s chat HHC tolerance, but first, imagine you’re sipping on your favorite latte. The first time you tried it, whoa, what a kick!
But after your umpteenth cup, the zing isn’t as zesty. Your body’s reaction to HHC works in a similar “bean-there-done-that” manner.
When you’re introduced to HHC, your body’s like, “This is new, what’s the buzz?” But with regular use, it’s more like, “Oh, you again? No big brew!” This adaptability is your body-building tolerance, just like how you might need an extra shot of espresso over time to get the same wake-up jolt.
But let’s spill the beans on why this happens. Repeated exposure to HHC might make our body’s receptors a bit less responsive, like when your alarm clock goes off repeatedly, and you start hitting snooze more often. Your body’s essentially doing the same with HHC – hitting that snooze button the more frequent you consume it.
Now, if you’re thinking, “I miss that first-time feeling,” you’re not alone! Many turn to a tolerance break, or as we like to call it, a “cannabinoid cleanse.”
It’s like giving your coffee mug a good wash, so the next latte tastes as lovely as the first.But remember, everyone’s body is different! Some might feel the HHC groove quickly, while others might take their sweet time.
It’s essential to stay grounded and recognizing your tolerance level isn’t a sign you’re doing something wrong; it’s just your body’s remix to the HHC beat. And, as always, sipping (or vaping) responsibly is the key!
Factors Influencing HHC Tolerance
Let’s talk about the things that play a role in influencing your HHC tolerance:
- Your Body’s Blueprint: Just like everyone rocks their own style, our individual biochemistry and genetics can influence how HHC rocks the boat. Some are naturally tolerant and it doesn’t effect them much, others can go straight to the moon!
- Your Cannabis History: Are you a cannabis newbie or a seasoned pro? Your past interactions set the stage. Think of it like your music playlist; the more you replay a track, the more you might crave a fresh beat. If you vape HHC frequently (like a few times a day), you can expect to build that tolerance fast!
- Lifestyle Grooves: Factors like diet, exercise, and stress levels can play a pivotal role. However, vaping some HHC with some good company is like pairing the perfect shoes with that outfit – some choices enhance the experience!
- Medication Mix: Some medicines might dance well with HHC, while others could step on its toes. It’s essential to ensure your prescription play well with cannabis. We recommend you consult with your physician if you take any meds before trying HHC.
- Product Potency: Are you opting for the strong espresso or the light latte of HHC? The concentration in your chosen product can be like the bass in a song – it can really change the vibe!
- Mindset & Setting: Your environment and mood can influence your experience. Think of it as the backdrop and lighting for your Instagram shot – it sets the mood!
Remember, understanding and respecting your tolerance will ensure you’re always having a fabulous and safe time!
How Much HHC Should I Take?
Good question! Embarking on the HHC journey and figuring out “How Much HHC Should I Take?” is like being handed a new musical instrument and trying to find your rhythm.
Let’s strum through the process for a 900mg HHC vape cart.
HHC Dose: Knowing Your Vape
Let’s assume your HHC vape cartridge is packed with 900mg of HHC goodness and break down the puffs you should be taking from a cannabis newbie to a seasoned pro!
- For the Uninitiated: When you’re first starting, you’d want to wade into the waters gently. Think of it as a gentle intro to a song.
- Recommendation: Aim for 1-2 short puffs. Each pull might give you around 2-5mg of HHC, depending on your device and the length of your draw. So, with a 2-second puff, you’re getting just a tiny teaser of the 900mg.
Adjusting Your Dose, Jazzing Up for a High:
- For the Adventure Seekers: Seeking that crescendo? Your approach will be different. But remember, with HHC, the climb to the climax is gradual, not abrupt.
- Recommendation: If you’ve already tested the waters and are familiar with your tolerance, you can increase your puffs. For a noticeable effect, you might consider 5-8 pulls, spaced out over a short duration. However, the exact number will still vary depending on your personal tolerance, body weight, metabolism, and the device’s efficiency.
- Always listen to your body’s feedback, If you feel it’s too intense, dial back during your next session.
- Stay hydrated, have a snack nearby, and ensure you’re in a comfortable environment.
- Remember, HHC can affect everyone differently. It’s like music; everyone has their own genre they groove to.
It’s all about finding your unique tune. With cautious curiosity, you’ll soon discover the perfect dose that resonates with you!
HHC Dosage Chart
This is your map to the HHC treasure. X marks the spot!
Finding the right HHC dosage for your vape is like tuning a guitar. Get the right note, and you’ll have harmony. So, take it slow, listen to your body, and you’ll find the sweet spot in no time!
- How often can I adjust my HHC dosage? Start slow and adjust as you become more familiar with your body’s response. If your new to HHC and other similar cannabinoids like D8 and D9 we recommend you experience with one more puff every 4 hours. It may take a couple days to discover what is your perfect vibe.
- Are there any side effects for HHC? Too much HHC can lead to discomfort, dizziness, and other temporary symptoms.
- Is the HHC dosage the same for all vape products? No, it can vary based on the product’s concentration and your personal tolerance.
- Can I mix HHC with other vape liquids? While it’s possible, always ensure compatibility and adjust dosage accordingly.
- How long does it take to feel the effects of HHC when vaping? Typically, vaping offers quicker effects, often within minutes. | <urn:uuid:6a6836e2-58fc-46ba-a141-72bf9a933e63> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://hazyape.com/hhc-dosage/ | 2024-04-25T07:06:33Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712297290384.96/warc/CC-MAIN-20240425063334-20240425093334-00668.warc.gz | en | 0.918493 | 3,659 |
Last night I read a good piece over at That Got Me Thinking.
Before I link to it, he in turn links to an archived radio interview with our Great Friend Luke Clancy. The link is awkward [it involves tracking through a very long programme to find the right spot] and in my usual selfless fashion have provided just the interview without the rest of the programme:-
His piece is here:-
There is nothing I can add to that. However it did get me thinking.
I have come across Clancy’s little pet project before. It’s the impressively named Tobacco Free Research Institute of Ireland. I decided to have a poke around to see exactly what this “Institute” is all about.
So first of all, it’s a Limited Company “formed on the basis of a partnership between the Office of Tobacco Control and ASH Ireland and its parent organisations: The Irish Cancer Society and The Irish Heart Foundation.“. Right. That clears up the most important fact. It’s funded out of tax payers’ money. ASH, the ICS and the IHF may scream they are a charity funded by donations but I say bollox to that – the vast majority of their funding is from the public purse.
So how about their mission statement?
TFRI is a non-partisan, independent, trans-disciplinary research centre focused around the issues of tobacco dependence and tobacco control. Our institute brings together researchers in the broad fields of public health, respiratory health, epidemiology, addiction studies, psychology, and social sciences who share an interest in tobacco related issues. We work to conduct and disseminate topical, socially relevant, ethically sound scientific research to fellow academics, policy makers and the general public.
Now this is interesting. For a non-partisan, independent, ethically sound organisation they seem to be remarkably anti-smoker from the outset. They pride themselves on screwing the smoker here in Ireland and brag about their influence in bringing about the smoking ban and plain packs. They also seem to be extremely reluctant to pass positive judgement on electrofags, preferring to quote the “gateway effect”, the “lack of science” and the “we just don’t know” line. They consistently try to point us in the direction of Big Pharma’s products which would lead me to wonder if this isn’t a nice little extra revenue stream?
So what are we getting for our hard earned taxes? Well, not much really. I never hear anything about them except when Clancy makes one of his dreary surfacings on radio. They claim a few research projects but they seem to be irrelevant little “studies” pecking around the perimeter of the whole smoking lark. Most of their projects seem to be pretty outdated anyway so what exactly is our tax money being used for? Well, I presume they all like their little salaries, which I’ll wager are slightly more than the minimum wage? Then they seem to be quite fond of “representing Ireland” at all these foreign junkets? I suppose with all that research they don’t do, they need a few holidays a year?
Quite frankly, if the Tobacco Free Research Institute of Ireland disappeared off the face of the plant then I doubt if even the Tobacco Control Industry would notice.
In the meantime Clancy drones out his non-partisan, independent, ethically sound message like a fossil from the Palaeolithic Era, demanding more and more penalties against the smoker and denying all the evidence under his nose about electrofags, “plain packaging” and all the rest.
Though I did have a lot of fun finding all the grammatical errors and spelling mistakes on the web site. There are tons of them.
For an “Institute” that isn’t a very good sign? | <urn:uuid:1af12f32-7e90-468a-ac27-5099ef61b07a> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://headrambles.com/2018/03/21/funding-fossils/ | 2024-04-25T07:11:07Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712297290384.96/warc/CC-MAIN-20240425063334-20240425093334-00668.warc.gz | en | 0.9505 | 807 |
In recent years, vaping has become a major problem in schools. Students are vaping everywhere, from bathrooms to classrooms, creating disruptive and dangerous situations. Not only is vaping a gateway drug, but it can also lead to nicotine addiction. As more THC and fentanyl-laced products hit the market, the vaping epidemic in schools is expected to continue. This article offers six proven ways to stop vaping in schools and create a vape-free environment for students.
As a teacher or administrator, it is important to be aware of the vaping issue and take proactive steps to address it. Here are six strategies that you can implement to stop vaping at your school:
Create a clear and concise vape-free policy
A clear and concise policy that states that vaping is not allowed on school property or at school events should be developed. The policy should be posted in prominent places around the school so that everyone is aware of it. No-tolerance policies have been successful in many schools, where students found near a vaping student receive the same punishment.
Install effective vape detectors in strategic locations
Vape detectors can be installed in strategic locations to deter vaping and catch students who are vaping so that appropriate disciplinary action can be taken. Triton Sensors offers an effective and affordable vape detector designed to help schools end the vaping epidemic.
Educate staff to recognize the signs of vaping
Educate your staff about the dangers of vaping, the signs of vaping, and what vapes look like. Staff should intervene if they see vaping taking place.
Educate students on the dangers of vaping
Educate your students about the risks associated with vaping through assemblies, classroom presentations, or one-on-one conversations. Guest speakers who are recovering nicotine addicts can be invited to connect with the students on a personal level.
Consistently enforce consequences for vaping
Students who are caught vaping should face consequences, which may include detention, suspension, or expulsion from school. Consistent enforcement of consequences will ensure that students know that vaping is not tolerated. In cases where disciplinary action seems too harsh, education efforts can be used in addition to or instead of traditional disciplinary action.
Create a culture of wellness and healthy activities at school
Create a healthy school environment: Promote healthy activities and provide support for students who are struggling with addiction. This can be done by offering counseling services, after-school programs, and health education classes. By incentivizing healthy behavior, a culture of wellness can be created at the school.
Implementing these six proven strategies can help prevent vaping at your school, create a safer environment for students, and promote a healthier school culture. | <urn:uuid:8f236bc9-a3a2-4088-8036-6da34c5891c5> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://health.westlab.com/news/how-to-tackle-vaping-at-school | 2024-04-25T08:36:05Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712297290384.96/warc/CC-MAIN-20240425063334-20240425093334-00668.warc.gz | en | 0.947852 | 530 |
NEW YORK — Former world No. 1 Simona Halep is suing the Canadian firm that produced a dietary complement that she believes led to her being handed a four-year ban for doping that would finish her profession.
Halep is searching for greater than $10 million in damages from Quantum Vitamin, which operates as Schinoussa Superfoods, after testing constructive on the 2022 U.S. Open for Roxadustat, a drug usually utilized by folks with anaemia.
Roxadustat is on the World Anti-Doping Company’s banned substances record as a result of it could possibly enhance haemoglobin and the manufacturing of crimson blood cells, constructing endurance.
Halep, 32, mentioned she used Schinoussa dietary supplements throughout the 2022 Flushing Meadows match and that the Keto MCT she took had been contaminated with Roxadustat, which was not disclosed on the label.
The 2-time Grand Slam champion mentioned she has by no means used any banned substances and that Quantum’s negligence and false claims that its complement was authorized has harmed her profession and triggered humiliation.
Halep can also be searching for punitive damages. She sued in a New York state court docket in Manhattan.
Quantum, primarily based in Scarborough, Ontario, didn’t instantly reply to a request for remark.
Its founder informed Canadian newspaper The Globe and Mail in October that Halep was searching for a scapegoat and his firm was being made into “the autumn man.”
Legal professionals for Halep didn’t instantly reply to requests for added remark.
Halep is interesting the four-year suspension imposed final September by an Worldwide Tennis Integrity Company tribunal.
Whereas agreeing that Halep had not identified that the complement may need contained Roxadustat, the tribunal mentioned the contamination couldn’t have accounted for the way a lot of the drug was present in her Aug. 29, 2022 urine pattern.
Halep appealed that ruling final week earlier than the Courtroom of Arbitration for Sport in Lausanne, Switzerland.
“I actually consider that the reality goes to return out and the day to be on court docket goes to be quickly,” Halep informed reporters.
Halep gained the French Open in 2018 and Wimbledon in 2019.
The case is Halep v Quantum Vitamin Inc et al, New York State Supreme Courtroom, New York County. | <urn:uuid:cf9aa83a-0374-4247-b5bd-48c62c11f4de> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://healthandsafetynews.co.uk/simona-halep-sues-complement-maker-tied-to-doping-suspension.html | 2024-04-25T08:55:32Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712297290384.96/warc/CC-MAIN-20240425063334-20240425093334-00668.warc.gz | en | 0.964172 | 499 |

Your lips begin to twitch uncontrollably at any time and are usually not a cause for concern. If you are experiencing a frequent lip twitching, or if it does not stop after a few minutes, you may want to further investigate the cause. This common event can be an indicator of an underlying health condition that requires medical attention.
Lip Twitching Meaning
Lip fasciculation, or twitching of the lips, is the involuntary sudden movement of the muscle fibers in your upper, lower, or both lips. During a twitch, it may feel obvious that people around you can see it, but that is not the case. In addition to the muscle contractions in your lip, you may also have numbness, repeated spasms, or even the sensation of a palpitation in the lip.
Symptoms Associated With Lip Twitching
Lip Twitching is a symptom and not a medical condition. Thus it is important to study the associated symptoms so that one can come up with a cause for the twitch of the lip and formulate a treatment plan to get rid of the problem of this condition. Some of the associated symptoms that occur along with Lip Twitching are:
- Abrupt contraction or shrinkage of muscles of the lower lip
- Repeated involuntary spasms around the facial region
- Lack of sensation in the lip along with a feeling of numbness
- Abnormal motion of the lower lip.
Lip Twitching Causes
Lip twitch can be a rather disturbing symptom for some people although in most cases the cause behind it may not be serious. Most cases of a twitching lip may be due to stress, fatigue, emotion, excessive caffeine intake, or some deficiency in the diet such as potassium. Lip twitch in most cases is self-limiting, disappearing in minutes or maybe in a few days without any residual problems. However persistent lip twitch with other signs and symptoms should be investigated for other underlying disorders.
Causes of twitch of the lip
There is always a reason for our lips to twitch, whether from emotional distress to a neurological health condition. We will take a look at upper lip twitch causes, as well as lower lip twitching causes.
In cases where we become overly excited, distraught, or completely overwhelmed, our lips may begin to tremble. The nerve endings in our upper and lower lips are stimulated by the autonomic nervous system, and its sympathetic nervous system. We also may experience pupil dilation, facial flushing, speech impediment, and watery eyes. The twitching usually lasts until we focus on the event causing the emotional reaction.
Lip twitch may be a symptom of essential tremors which can affect the head and extremities. Not to be confused with Parkinson’s disease, essential tremors occur as the body’s response to muscle contractions from a neurological condition. No cause has been determined; however, those with a family history of essential tremors have a 50% chance of also experiencing these tremors. It appears usually after the age of 40, and symptoms become progressively worse over time. Essential tremors are not part of the natural ageing process.
After a time period without neurostimulants such as caffeine, alcohol, or street drugs, a person can experience lip twitch. This can also happen during excessive use of such substances. Lip twitching is evident during the withdrawal period, as well as for a significant length of time after recovery. Along with the twitching, you may have tremors of the head, tongue, and vocal cords.
The twitching of upper lip can be present in those with Bell’s palsy. This condition can be present after the facial nerve is damaged or injured. In addition to upper lip twitching, it can affect one side of the face with signs of drooping and swelling. Speech will also be affected by this condition.
Gradual deterioration of dopamine cells within the central nervous system can cause a twitch in the upper or lower lip, or even both lips. Known as Parkinson’s disease, this condition can also offer symptoms of extremity shaking, hand tremors, muscle stiffness, mobility difficulty, and speech impediment. The lips may twitch when the person is not speaking or eating in the early stages of the disease.
Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis
Known as ALS, this neurodegenerative condition often presents twitching of the upper lip and face muscles as indicators. It is caused by genetic markers, biochemical imbalances, or as a result of an autoimmune disorder. The twitching relates to the beginning of the muscles gradually weakening, and will eventually result in paralyzation.
Hemi- facial Spasm
Cases of hemi -facial spasms identify with upper lip twitch, as well as facial muscle contractions, and paralysis of muscle-controlling facial expressions. The twitching of the lip may be reoccurring. This condition is linked to compression of the facial nerve, but no direct cause has been found. Some cases have lip twitching heightened with anxiety or fatigue.
Lip twitch is a major symptom of hypoparathyroidism. This condition relates to the decrease in production of the parathyroid hormone. In addition to lower or upper lip twitch, it can affect other muscles, such as those in the hands and feet. Dry skin, brittle nails, leg cramps, and depression are other symptoms.
Upper lip twitches and the movements of facial muscles are key indicators of Tourette’s syndrome. Referred to as tics, the involuntary movement of the muscles can be seen with blinking, scrunching of the nose, and clearing of the throat. Behavioral issues, involuntary vocalization sounds, and sudden obscenity yelling are also associated with this neurological disorder.
Under-development of the body caused by the absence of chromosome 22 is known as the inherited DiGeorge syndrome. Twitching of the lips and other facial features are part of this condition, and may be seen at birth or later in life. Other symptoms include leg and hand muscle spasms, breathing difficulty, fatigue, or a blue hue of the skin.
A facial tic may involve the eyes or muscles of the face and lips. There is repeated spasm of the involved muscles. Tics occur frequently in childhood and often resolve on their own but may sometimes continue throughout life. Stress is known to aggravate this condition.
In Parkinson’s disease, twitching or tremor of the lips may occur as rhythmical involuntary, movements affecting one or both lips, along with other signs and symptoms of the disease. This tremor of the lips occurs at rest and may stop while performing activities such as eating or speaking – typical of resting tremors in Parkinson’s disease. Twitching of the lips is not observed when the patient is sleeping. In later stages of the disease, lip twitching may continue even when the patient is talking or eating.
Other signs and symptoms of Parkinson’s disease may include :
- Tremor, usually starting in the hands.
- Slowness of movement.
- Muscle stiffness.
- Problems with balance and co-ordination.
- Slow monotonous speech.
- Walking with short shuffling steps.
- Fixed facial expression with a staring gaze and little or no blinking.
This is one of the most common types of tremor and usually involves the arms, hands and head. The tremor occurs most frequently on stretching the arms or trying to perform some activity and is often associated with neurological disorders. There may be a family history of essential tremor although often, no known cause can be identified. It is minimal at rest and may disappear during sleep. There may be periods of uncontrollable tremors and even shaking of parts of the body that subsides after a short period of time.
Drug Induced Tremor
These tremors may arise from long term or continuous abuse of alcohol or narcotic use, including crystal meth addition. Drug induced tremors may also be present as a result of opiate withdrawal and can be severe during the detoxification phase. It may also persist after rehabilitation as is seen in recovering addicts, along with other symptoms like head tremor, voice, tongue and lip tremor, causing difficulty with speech.
A hysterical tremor usually occurs in a heightened emotional state. This sort of tremor or twitching of the lips disappears or reduces when the patient is distracted. It is not usually a serious issue on its own.
Lip Twitching Superstition
In some cultures, it is seen as an omen or a nature’s way of warning human of an impending occurrence when you experience lip twitch. Scientifically, all planets in the solar system radiates is own specific kind of energy. Due difference in the planetary conjunctions we are all born in, the emitted energies will have different effects on different individuals.
Superstitions attempt to interpret the meaning of the twitching based on the part of the body that twitches. For example the twitching of the right eye or eyelid is interpreted to mean good fortune is coming. On the other hand, if the twitching was on the left eye or eyelid, then it could mean a bad omen.
Another common believe is that if the right thumb of hand or foot twitches, it is said you are going to be successful in your endeavors. It is believed that all your wishes are likely to be fulfilled even within the same day. The contrary is that, it indicates bad luck and problem hindrances s to your ventures.
Lip Twitch Superstition
For lip twitch, it was believed for old wives that this could be a possible indication of goodness relating to matters of love. Now this kind of believed and interpretation will differ from one geographical location to the other. If you hold a different view or superstation about the twitching of the lip we would love to know about it. Please share it in the comment box below.
You may have heard of certain superstitions when it comes to the twitching of the lips. These statements may pertain to upper lip twitch superstition or a lower lip twitching superstition. As with the idea that someone is thinking of you when your nose itches, there are a few sayings that have developed from bouts of lip twitching, such as:
- Upper lip twitch means you can expect someone to kiss you in the near future; it also can be switched to meaning you may kiss someone instead.
- Expect something bad to happen when your left side of lip begins to twitch.
- Expect something good to happen when your right side of lip begins to twitch.
Lip twitch can happen suddenly, and may prove to be embarrassing while in public. This involuntary movement of the muscle fibers within our lips can be a result of emotions or stress. It can also be a sign of a serious health condition or disorder.
Twitching of the lips usually does not last very long in most cases, and sometimes can be stopped by applying pressure to the trembling lip with a finger or teeth. For reoccurring episodes, treatment is based on the cause. Some lip twitches can be controlled or avoided with a few lifestyle changes.
Lip Twitching Stroke
It is important to recognize the early warning signs of a stroke. The earlier someone receives treatment for stroke symptoms, the better the chances of a complete recovery. For the best results, the patient should be treated within one hour of the onset of symptoms. Taking a wait-and-see approach can make recovery more difficult or even impossible.
Don’t ignore any twitch on your face
Often, someone will experience stroke symptoms for a few seconds or minutes, and then the symptoms will go away. This can be a sign of a transient ischemic attack (TIA). Roughly 30 percent of people who suffer from a stroke experience lip twitching can as well occur in the days or weeks leading up to the stroke.
If you or someone you know experiences any stroke symptoms, it is important to visit the emergency room immediately, even if the symptoms subside. Even if the symptoms go away, the condition that led to the TIA is still there, and there is every reason to suspect that a stroke is imminent.
Look for Unusual Symptoms
Not all people experience the textbook warning signs of a stroke. Women, in particular, often experience less common early symptoms. A female who develops sudden nausea, overwhelming weakness, chest pains, lip twitch, heart palpitations, and shortness of breath or even a sudden case of hiccups may be in the early stages of a stroke.
Other unusual early warning signs of a stroke in either sex are difficulty swallowing or sudden hoarseness. Uncontrollable muscle twitching or eye movements are also early warning signals that some people experience.
Lower Lip Twitching Left Side
A flickering lip on one side of the lip can be a great reason for concern. Different communities have tried to interpret what the twitching could mean, but at the end the interpretation tends to vary from one geographical location to the other.
Your lower lip twitch on the left side can be minor, which eventually clears on its own or severe when caused by a serious underlying medical condition. Depending on the symptoms exhibited, your health care provider can run some diagnosis and establish what the underlying cause of the spasm is. Treatment for the underlying cause can then be prescribed.
If the twitch is a mild, it can be managed at home using simple remedy such as a warm compress, having adequate sleep or physical activities such as yoga to relax and relieve stress.
Lower Lip Twitching Right Side
Lower lip twitch on the right side is a clear signal of nerve problem on the right side of the lip. From the beginning, we have seen that neurological disorder is a possible cause of the twitching and muscle spasm on lip. All the other causes discussed above could also lead to the flickering of the lower lip on the right side.
Mild episodes of twitching can be managed with a simple hot compress. Pat your lips with a face towel dip in hot water within interval of 20 minutes to stop the twitching. If the twitching persists seek medical attention as soon as possible.
The twitching as it has been said is involuntary, that is why it is important to seek medical attention as soon as you notice other symptoms start to appear. This could include feeling of numbness on lips, the swelling of nodes or difficulties in moving your jaws or lip.
Eye and Lip Twitching
The eye is very near the sinuses and can get affected because of the sinus inflammation. Some nerves of your eye are passing through your sinuses and ending at your brain. When your sinuses are inflamed some nerves can get irritated, causing muscle spasms that will run from the eye area down to the lip area.
It is something that can happen to anyone, and can affect your top, bottom, or both lips and is a very common. It can happen due to many things including stress or fatigue, deficiency of potassium, lack of electrolytes, withdrawal or excess intake of alcohol, drugs, or cigarettes. Sometimes Lip twitching can also result from a neck pain. Lip twitch in most cases is self-limiting. Another common cause is Sinusitis. Sinuses located around your eyes and nose, that twitching might cause pressure on facial nerve.
How to Stop Lip Twitching
Majority of Lip Twitch caused due to medical conditions can be taken care of by treating the underlying cause. Lip Twitch caused due to diseases like Parkinson Disease and DiGeorge Syndrome may not go away permanently as a definite cure for these conditions has not been found yet but Lip Twitch caused due to conditions like anxiety, fear, alcohol or drug abuse can be prevented if the following measures are taken.
- To get rid of anxiety and alcohol related problems, certain lifestyle changes along with consultation with a skilled psychiatrist with use of medications can help a great deal in getting rid of not only the underlying anxiety and alcohol problem but also its related symptoms of lip twitch.
- Avoid caffeine as much as possible as this is yet another cause of lip twitching.
- As soon as lip twitch starts you can apply a warm cloth to the lips or apply pressure as this will stop lip twitching instantly.
- Manage stress appropriately and if possible try yoga or other forms of exercise to keep the stress under control which will get rid of lip twitch caused due to extreme stress.
- In case if lip twitching is caused due to potassium deficiency then eating food rich in potassium like water melon and banana are quite effective in getting rid of twitching of the lips.
This In summary, Lip Twitch is not something to be too concerned about unless it points to an underlying medical condition. If the condition is persistent then it is always better to get it evaluated by a physician so that a definitive diagnosis can be made and a treatment plan can be formulated to permanently get rid of Lip Twitch.
How to Stop a Twitching Lip Naturally?
- To overcome fear or any possible condition brought by the twitching, consult a doctor to be sure.
- Maintain a more relaxed state of mind and body, away from stress that could cause agitation.
- Surround oneself with family or peers who can help with an existing problem or difficulty.
- Reduce intake of caffeine or alcoholic drinks.
- Patient can put a warm compress on the twitching to relax the muscles.
- Eat a sufficient supply of foods with a high Potassium content. Magnesium-rich foods may also help in stopping lip twitching.

One of the more strange aspects of the debate over Greg Johnson’s advocacy of “Side-B” homosexuality, the so-called “Gay Christian” approach, is that it has mostly ignored Rosaria Butterfield’s analysis of the issue and her experience. As one HB commenter wrote this morning, Johnson is essentially leveraging what Scripture says with his own experience and his interpretation of nature. Why then, given those parameters, does Revoice consistently ignore the experience of others, e.g., Butterfield? Why does not her experience matter? To be sure, the leveraging of Scripture with experience is a bad method, which, should the PCA choose to accept it, will come to grief. Of course, Butterfield has a confessional Reformed doctrine of humanity (theological anthropology), a confessional Reformed doctrine of sin (harmatiology), and a confessional Reformed doctrine of progressive sanctification and that is why we should listen to her. She analyzes her experience and the claims people make about their experiences in light of holy Scripture, which is what we should all be doing. Further, she does not set up and knock down straw men and she is not seeking the approval of the broader culture. Butterfield had all the riches of Egypt, as it were, in academia but she esteemed reproach of Christ more. She deserves our attention and this episode of the Presbygirls podcast deserves a listen. (or a viewing).

Flower Subscription Service Brings Tropics to The Woodlands
It was an early Wednesday morning as I sipped my first cup of coffee, stared into my phone, and scrolled through the latest images on Instagram. This is normally how I start most mornings, to see what’s going on in the world and discover new local events, businesses, people and products here locally in The Woodlands and North Houston.
Flowers + Cuteness + Local = WIN!
I mean how adorable is that smile?! Plus I’m a gal that loves flowers [surprise, surprise] so I simply had to dive in and learn more about Amazon Flower Designs.
After doing a little investigating and striking up a conversation online with Tricia of Amazon Flower Designs, I soon discovered that not only do they offer tropical flowers, but they are a subscription based flower service. So you want flowers delivered every week, every other week, or monthly to your home or business? DONE! Amazon Flower Designs will do just that for clients in The Woodlands and surrounding areas.
Inspired by their Brazilian roots and experience working with exotic flowers, Tricia and Camila started Amazon Flower Designs here in The Woodlands to provide arrangements filled with tropical designs to give clients the exotic chic detail they are looking for. Each arrangement is even named after a place in Brazil!
…And the arrangements are absolutely gorgeous. Don’t you agree?
To order a subscription, all you have to do is choose:
1) How often (Weekly, Biweekly, Monthly)
2) What Size (Small, Medium, Large)
3) Select the Design (See their Photo Gallery) or Create Your Own (Ex: White Flowers)
Then Amazon Flower Designs will hand deliver your personalized arrangement for you to enjoy.
How fun is that?! Naturally, our team felt compelled to test out the service and arrange a time to receive an arrangement of our very own. Strictly for research purposes of course 😉
Even on the dreadfully rainy pre-scheduled day of delivery, both Tricia and Camila came right on time to deliver vases filled with exotic flowers, hand selected and styled to perfection. I really don’t know how they did it, but the flowers looked like they jumped right out of a high fashion Magazine versus the rain storm they just had to drive and walk through. To top things off, Tricia and Camila were absolutely delightful and – just like their flowers – truly brightened up the room even on this gloomy day.
After snapping a few photos and talking about their new business, they shared that in addition to the subscription service, they also love to accommodate special requests in order to provide arrangements for dinner parties, corporate events, and more. As residents of The Woodlands, they are excited to bring the natural beauty of Brazil – by subscription or custom order – now locally to homes and businesses in the area.
Good morning!! One of our favorite combinations, snaps and orchids. #goodmorning #amazonflowerdesigns #personalizedarrangements #thewoodlands #thewoodlandstx #thomasmarklejewelers #instagram #flowersofinstagram #photooftheday #picoftheday

We want to say a special THANK YOU to Tricia and Camila of Amazon Flower Designs for taking the time to chat with us about their new local business and our gorgeous arrangement that brightened the days [and well over a week!] after our delivery. We look very forward to receiving our next arrangement!

Work environment: Beeple environment or tenant. This is the URL you're logging into.
Single sign-on (SSO): used to easily switch between multiple accounts without logging off each time.
Main environment: or main tenant or 'my linked groups', this is the Beeple URL you'll want to use as the main source.
Subenvironment: or subtenant or member tenant or 'my linked members'; this is the Beeple URL that is subordinate to the main environment.
Group of environments: a group of environments consists of one main tenant and at least one subtenant.
By linking multiple Beeple environments with each other, you'll make working with multiple Beeple environments a lot more user-friendly.
· Create and modify your own group of linked work environments
· Manage collaborators across multiple linked environments
· Sync collaborator data within the linked work environments
· Single Sign-on for users within the linked work environments
· Switch to different environments easily
How it works
The linked work environments feature allows you to create a group of Beeple environments. One environment is the "main environment", and the others are sub environments. A subenvironment can belong to multiple groups of environments. Subenvironments do not have to be linked with each other if they are linked to the same main environment.
Setup: Create a group of environments
First, go to 'Settings' and enable the module 'Linked work environments'.
You will see two options:
· Send link request: this option allows you to send a link request from this environment to another environment.
· Receive link requests: this option allows the environment to receive link requests from other environments.
When you enable ‘Send link requests’, you will get the following screen:
From your main environment (= the environment you want to be the main environment of the group of environments), select the ‘+’ icon on ‘My linked members'.
Tip: always type the complete URL of your subenvironment, this includes https://
Allow single sign-on (SSO): select ‘Yes’ if you want to allow users to be able to login into your environment when coming from another environment. This setting has to be configurated for every work environment you're linked with. In practice, this will allow users to switch between all linked environments without logging off.
Request two-factor authentication (2FA): select ‘Yes’ if you want each user to have to enter a 2FA code when switching between linked work environments.
Please note this setting is only visible if you allow single sign-on and if two-factor authentication is enabled in your settings.
For both SSO and 2FA, the setting applies to a collaborator who is logging in on your environment coming from a linked one.
Your request to link environments is now sent to your subenvironment.
Go to the subenvironment (in our example this is bbinternal2) -> Settings -> Linked work environments. Here you can accept the link request.
Selecting ‘Accept link’ will create a link between the two environments. Accept link screen will open. Here you can configure SSO settings.
Note that you will also get a message on your dashboard if you have access rights to ‘Linked work environments’.
This process can be repeated to add multiple environments to the same group. Always initiate the process from the main environment to add other subenvironments.
Manage collaborators across a group of work environments
Once you established at least one link to the group of environments, you now have the option to link collaborator accounts of the same collaborator between multiple linked environments.
In order to do this, the admin has to configure some settings. Go to any collaborator’s profile page and notice the option ‘Linked work environments’.
Select the ‘+’ icon and add an environment to which you want to push this collaborator.
Beeple will automatically detect potential accounts that relate to the same collaborator. Only environments that are directly linked with your environment will be available in the dropdown list. Select the account you want to link and confirm via the ‘Link existing collaborator’ button.
If no potential matches are found, you will get the option to automatically create the collaborator on the linked environment. This will create a new account for the collaborator including all of their personal data. Only if the email has not been used in the other tenant yet. In this case, it will show up as a potential match.
Important: When trying to link a collaborator account with an account that has admin rights in the linked work environment, an extra verification step needs to be done. This step can only be completed by the collaborator him/herself in the linked work environment.
If you send a link request for a collaborator from environment 1 to environment 2, the collaborator will have to accept the request on environment 2 first and provide the authorisation code to an admin of environment 1. After the authorisation code is filled in on work environment 1, the collaborator link will be activated.
Sync collaborator data
If you want all of the personal data of your collaborators to be synchronized between linked environments, you can enable the option ‘Data synchronization – Personal data’ on the main environment.
In order to do this, go to your main environment -> Settings -> Linked work environments. Set ‘Personal data’ to ‘Yes’.
SSO between linked environments
If the option ‘Allow single sign-on' is set to 'Yes', all users with an active linked account can switch between environments without having to log in again.
Once an account has been linked with at least one other environment, a new icon will show up in the top navigation bar of Beeple.
Selecting this icon will display a list of all environments your account has been linked to and allows you to easily switch between environments.
On the 'My profile' screen, users get a more detailed overview of the linked work environments.
Fun question: How many times did we use the word 'environment' in this article?

How to become a Virtual Assistant
How To Become a Virtual Assistant
7 steps to help you kickstart your career as a VA!
Think about your ideal life, the one where you have everything going for yourself. You’re thriving in every aspect and nothing can stop that momentum – not even work! The problem is…you don’t know how to get there yet because we all too often settle when it comes down to choosing what our lives will look like; but why?
Working as a virtual assistant or digital business manager offers many attractive benefits. You have the flexibility of working from home, the freedom to choose the hours you work and the opportunity to increase your income working as your own boss. All of these factors make it possible to finally achieve that work-life balance you have been longing for. So, how can you become a virtual assistant? And what exactly does a virtual assistant do?
What is a Virtual Assistant?
A virtual assistant (VA) is someone who provides support to business owners remotely. Usually, a business owner has decided they need an extra person to complete certain jobs, but don’t need this person at their physical office. They’ve understood how to effectively delegate tasks and responsibilities that take up important time in their day, such as administration, social media, bookkeeping, graphic design, website management and other daily operations. This is where a VA comes in!
Becoming a Virtual Assistant
If you want to become a VA, there are a few steps to follow to ensure your business is successful.
1. Decide What Services You’ll Offer
First and foremost, you’ll need to decide what skills and services you’ll offer. Do you already specialise in skills wanted by business owners? Perhaps you have years of experience in website creation, SEO and content writing. If so, this can be a great offering to include in your services. Some VA’s may even choose to offer specific support for certain industries, such as administration support for tradesmen.
If you don’t feel like you have the correct skillset yet, look into doing a Certificate or Diploma in Business Administration.
2. Set Up Your Work Space
Most VA’s work from the comfort of their own home. However, some VA’s do choose to hire an office in a co-working space or in our case, a private office. Once you have decided on the location of your business, set up your workspace. Ensure the area is well organised and always kept tidy. A clear space really does mean a clear mind.
3. Register Your Business Name and Australian Business Number (ABN)
Register your business name
When you’ve decided on your business name, check its availability using the Business name check. It’s also a good idea to check if the domain name is available for your website before registering the business name.
Register your ABN
Before you register your ABN, you will need to have identified your business structure. For a VA, you will most likely be working as a Sole Trader.
4. Organise Your Finances
Make sure you have all of your finances prepared. Consider the following:
- Set up a business bank account
- Set up an invoice system and decide on your accepted payment methods and terms
- Prepare a budget and understand your expenses, such as Photoshop, website fees, internet fees etc.
- Set up a cash flow statement
- Keep the correct records for tax
- Pay yourself superannuation
5. Create a Solid Pricing Structure
A VA can choose to charge an hourly rate, a flat fee per task or work on a retainer. When deciding on your fee, consider how long it’s going to take you to complete the task as well as your expenses. Remember that you won’t get sick or annual leave and you will need to pay your own tax and super.
6. Create a Website, Social Media Business Profiles and Marketing Plan
Creating a website is one of the best ways to showcase the skills you offer and previous work you have completed. It helps potential clients understand what they can expect from working with you and acts as a ‘face’ of your business. It’s also important to create a strategic marketing plan and focus on having a strong social media presence. Building out and optimising your social media business profiles is key! They are equally as important as websites. Your profiles should reflect your abilities and provide useful, valuable information for your target audience.
7. Find Clients
One of the best ways to find clients as a VA is to utilise your own network. Think about the types of businesses or industries you want to work with and who you may know in your own circle. Introduce yourself to small businesses in your area and naturally bring up what you do in conversation. Look for VA job listings on websites such as Seek and LinkedIn. Another option is advertising your business in local Facebook groups to start building brand awareness.
Remember, referral business is huge (!!). Once you’ve started working with your clients, always maintain a great relationship with them. One you can continue to evolve and offer value to. This will see you continue a successful business working as a virtual assistant.

LUCAS is also known by stage name 5ACUL and it’s just his actual name spelled backwards!
He was born and raised in Melaka and started of by singing at the age of 21.
5acul was influenced by the genres of
soul rhythm and blues.
His first initial plan was to be in a band and become a lead singer.
But he started off his rapping career in 2017 and found it to be far more expressive.
5acul released his first single called “Mama’s Boy” on all streaming platforms. The song was inspired by his younger days as a troubled kid and his father wasn’t around as he grew up.
Following the release of “Mama’s Boy”, he released another two singles, “ASB”, “Mayday” a couple months after.
5acul released his first big hit “Dolce' Gusto'” on 31st Jan 20 and it was on the HITZ Met 10 for almost 4 and a half months
You can expect more of his razor-tongued MC which is determined to take his brand of new wave conscious rap to greater heights!

A New Way to Save For a Home in Alabama Nearly a Reality
Photo: Alabama State House. The legislature has passed the First-Time Homebuyer and Second-Chance Savings Account (FHSA) bill, or HB248
Do you remember how you felt when you bought your first home?
It was a wave of emotions, right? Excitement turned into anxiety which turned into stress when you applied for a loan, or when you first heard what kind of down payment was needed or the closing costs and fees were going to be once they were added to your initial payment due.
Or, if you’ve never owned a home, is one of the reasons because the financials are so daunting that you never thought you could have the wherewithal to make it happen?
Well those worries can start to subside now here in Alabama – and this is beneficial to all, even those that are current homeowners.
That’s because the Alabama House and Senate closed out the month of March with near-unanimous support of the First-Time Homebuyer and Second-Chance Savings Account (FHSA) bill, or HB248.
The FHSA bill provides for a tax-free savings account for persons who have never owned a home or those that are re-entering the housing market, if they have not owned a home within 10 years.
The savings from the account can be used to pay for a down payment and/or closing costs for a single-family dwelling. The bill states that deposits and earnings cannot exceed $50,000, and qualified expenditures must be made in five years from opening the account.
“We appreciate the overwhelming bi-partisan support this bill has received from legislators across the state,” Alabama REALTORS® CEO Jeremy Walker said. “Our legislators understand the obstacles first-time homebuyers face and took action toward providing a resource to help those individuals accomplish their dream of homeownership.”
But it’s not just a benefit to first-time or second-chance homebuyers.
Home ownership helps improve neighborhoods, which in turn attracts businesses, which creates jobs and improves our local economy.Click To TweetIt’s a benefit to all of us, because home ownership helps improve neighborhoods, which in turn attracts businesses, which creates jobs and improves our local economy.
So, there’s a stake in this for all of us.
“Our members really rallied behind this bill and helped emphasize to legislators the positive impact this bill could have on Alabama’s housing market,” said Stacey Sanders, Alabama REALTORS® Public Policy Chair. “This bill not only benefits first-time buyers, but Alabama’s real estate industry as a whole. If signed into law, it would do a lot of good for a lot of people.” | <urn:uuid:f3d634a8-07c0-44d5-99ce-12f14f239ae6> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://homeownershipmatters.realtor/alabama/a-new-way-to-save-for-a-home-in-alabama-nearly-a-reality/ | 2024-04-25T08:48:43Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712297290384.96/warc/CC-MAIN-20240425063334-20240425093334-00668.warc.gz | en | 0.971493 | 587 |

I shared in another post about the pain I struggle with daily and constantly. (read here)
Today I had pre-op appointments with at my doctor’s office as well as the hospital. The appointment wasn’t I had hoped for. The prognosis of the physician assistant’s part was not all butterflies and flowers. To be honest, he had me doubting whether or not having this surgery was going to be a good thing or not. I also know I don’t think I have the physical or mental stamina to live the rest of my life with the current pain levels.
Last week I had lunch with a friend and I confided in her that I was still asking God to reveal to me who He is as healer. (I know I am all over the place, but please bear with me!)
As I left the hospital from doing my pre-op obligations, I was asking God to show me what to do. (I’m still weepy over the entire thing)While I was waiting outside for my husband to bring the car around, I checked email on my phone…God had worked a miracle on my behalf!
You see, I have a book that was released this week…(see more here)…I have a book launch party scheduled at my home Sunday afternoon because Monday morning I will be in surgery. This is a perfect plan, except copies of my books were not supposed be delivered until the day after my party. I paid expedited shipping and did everything humanly possible to get the books here sooner, but there was no way for me to get books delivered to my home any sooner than Monday November 2nd.
In this e-mail, God showed his Holiness to me. I had a notice that the first shipment of books had been delivered today! The second shipment that wasn’t supposed to be here until the 6th, are scheduled to be here Friday the 30th. God is Holy! God cares! No detail escapes Him. If He can get books here from a facility in Canada 5-7 days ahead of schedule, how much more will He want to guide the surgeon’s hands to reveal Himself as my healer?
I know this next passage is long—please forgive me for that—but I NEEDED the entire passage today, maybe you do too!
“And why worry about your clothing? Look at the lilies of the field and how they grow. They don’t work or make their clothing, yet Solomon in all his glory was not dressed as beautifully as they are. And if God cares so wonderfully for wildflowers that are here today and thrown into the fire tomorrow, he will certainly care for you. Why do you have so little faith? “So don’t worry about these things, saying, ‘What will we eat? What will we drink? What will we wear?’ These things dominate the thoughts of unbelievers, but your heavenly Father already knows all your needs. Seek the Kingdom of God above all else, and live righteously, and he will give you everything you need. “So don’t worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will bring its own worries. Today’s trouble is enough for today.”,(Matthew 6:25-34, NLT)
I don’t want my faith to be a little faith. I don’t want to doubt God’s Holiness. I am humbled beyond words that He would use the miracle of books being delivered WAY AHEAD OF TIME to let me know that He really does take care of the details. He is my healer!
Dear Lord, Help me not doubt your Holiness. Help me trust you more in all areas of my life. Help me remember that you provide for the birds of the air and will not leave me without what I need. Thank you for loving me and using things like the early delivery of books to remind me of just how precious I am to you. In Jesus name I pray~ Amen! | <urn:uuid:55a6ad55-bdfd-45f9-8e63-32e80686158f> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://hopeforgrievinghearts.com/2015/10/29/stones-of-doubt-do-i-trust-god/ | 2024-04-25T07:41:08Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712297290384.96/warc/CC-MAIN-20240425063334-20240425093334-00668.warc.gz | en | 0.980271 | 835 |
CD Projekt is working on a first expansion of Cyberpunk 2077, Chief Executive Adam Kicinski said after the Polish video games maker reported a first-half beat on its net profit.
Cyberpunk 2077, featuring Hollywood star Keanu Reeves, was one of last year’s most anticipated games, but after a bug-ridden start it was kept off Sony’s PlayStation Store for six months, only returning in June.
CD Projekt did not give an update on how many units of Cyberpunk it had sold in the first half of 2021, but company officials told a conference call that the game was the leading source of revenue in the period.
Along with The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, Cyberpunk drove CD Projekt’s revenue 29 percent higher in the first half of the year to PLN 470.6 million (roughly Rs. 900 crores).
CD Projekt said its net profit was PLN 105 million (roughly Rs. 200 crores), which was 28 percent lower compared to last year but above the PLN 71 million (roughly Rs. 140 crores) expected by analysts.
The planned Cyberpunk expansion would involve a charge to gamers, similar to the ones released for The Witcher, board member Michal Nowakowski said during Wednesday’s call.
“When we talk about expansions then we talk about bigger things,” he said, while declining to give a specific timing for its release.
CD Projekt has been working on fixing the game since its launch and released 10 patches and fixes. Its selling costs rose to PLN 131.2 million (roughly Rs. 250 crores) from PLN 72.1 million (roughly Rs. 140 crores) a year before.
The video games maker plans to release next generation versions of Cyberpunk and The Witcher 3 late this year.
“Considering the relatively small number of Next Gen versions of existing high-quality games available on the market, we think CP77 could potentially become among the best-selling titles,” JP Morgan analysts wrote in a note.

The Data Grouping option is available if the Formulas and Calculations feature is included in your plan. This feature allows you to group data by one or more columns in Tabular Reports. For example, you can design your tabular report such that your Customers are grouped by their Country.
When grouping by a date field, you can use the Date rollup feature to group records by a portion of the date field (such as hour, month or year).
Groups may be collapsed or expanded by default and using Totals & Aggregation feature, groups can have subtotals and aggregations. You can hide group data and only display totals and aggregation summary.
The example below shows two levels of grouping, by the Region field and the Product field.
To enable data grouping, in Reports DataPage wizard go to Configure Results Page Fields screen and select a field from the DataPage Elements panel and check Enable data grouping by this field on the right.- Standard results set – shows the records in a non-collapsible layout.
- Collapsible group – provides the user the ability to collapse and expand each group.
Grouping by Date
There are additional options when grouping by date fields:- Whole field – no rollup is applied. Every date value down to the minutes and seconds is used in the group. This usually is not the intended outcome.
- Date rollup – groups based on a part of the date/time value such as year, month, weekday or hour. | <urn:uuid:1916263a-df04-4196-afb1-2dbfbd3d3901> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://howto.caspio.com/datapages/reports/advanced-reporting/data-grouping/ | 2024-04-25T08:53:40Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712297290384.96/warc/CC-MAIN-20240425063334-20240425093334-00668.warc.gz | en | 0.886299 | 305 |
How many of us dream about making extra money for ourselves? How many want to become their own boss? And how many have dreamed about making money with something close to them, like a hobby, interest or passion? You would also like to work from home? Nowadays, with the growing internet possibilities, this has become possible for all of us.
How to do it?
But how many of us know how to do this? Answer: not so many and even if you have an idea, most of us will be scared to undertake such a daring enterprise. The good news is that with the growth of the internet, especially the Google search engine, tons of opportunities have presented themselves. The secret is that there are opportunities for each and every one of us and yes also for you!
In this article I am going to give you the best option available right now, one that combines all of the advantages mentioned above and so much more. And I can assure you it will be scam-free if you would be afraid of losing money. What is the secret here?
Having your own website
To take away any mystery, this is going to be about creating, owning and operating your own website or even sites. Now you might be thinking, oh dear I might not be able to do that. I can tell you now that with the right support and guidance anybody can do this, but you need to find the right training and support.
Some time ago I started this website from scratch, not knowing too much about the techniques involved and here is the thing: you do not need to know all the website techniques, as it is already there and you would have a website within 30 minutes.
However, your main task will be to build out your website, which means hard work and effort.
It is the law of the land that in order to make money with your website, you will need to have an audience (people who come to visit your site). The underlying sequence is the following process:
Finding your niche
The crux of this process is finding a niche, which would be a group of people who you are going to help with a problem. Get this: any niche is good. But is it good for you? Here is what experts in the business suggest: look to yourself and find out what your personal interests, hobbies and passions are (pet care, beauty products, types of sports, literally anything will do).
Make your choice based on the following assumptions: you need to be able to research, study, talk and most importantly write about your topic on a day-to-day basis. No need to be an authority on the subject, but certainly want to become one. I have written an article about finding a niche that you can find here.
Building out your website means that you will be adding content by way of blogging. Always bear in mind that any article you write should be relevant to your niche, should be helping your potential customer and should be engaging them in order to have them take action, such as ask a question, counter your content (to start a discussion on the topic), or have them go to another of your articles through internal linking. Like I did in former paragraph.
Remember that all of this should be done with the aim to get the all-important traffic to your site. To that purpose, your website will have very effective Search Engine Optimization or SEO. I am talking here about the various search engines present like Google, Bing and Yahoo and where Google is by far the greatest.
Your articles will be written in such a way that they will easily be found and accepted (indexed) by these search engines. By then your website url, which illustrates your niche, will also have been indexed by the search engines (examples: howtobeatyourboss.com and chardonnayfans.com).
After indexing your post or blog or article the search engines will rank it, give it a place on one of their pages, we would prefer page 1, position 1 but page 1 is very good. I have published an article of how to best write quality content, which you can click here.
So how do you get a high enough ranking in the search engines? Well, besides SEO there is a mechanism that is working with keywords and phrases. Every one of your articles should have a keyword in its title which should be repeated within the first 100 words of the post. I will explain here what the meaning of this is.
In search engines, people type in search criteria in order to find answers to their questions such as how to beat my boss? or how to deal with an annoying boss? Both of these search criteria are called keywords and they will give you an idea of how many times a keyword is typed in and what your competition for this keyword will be.
The program I will propose has a separate Free keyword search system that is going to help you find the right keywords! The better the keyword, the higher the rankings and the higher the traffic to your website.
If you are going to talk to people and help them solve a problem, you better find out who it is you are talking to. For some niches, this might be obvious, like finding a job for men over 50 or stay-at-home moms. For others, this might not be so clear, as in chardonnayfans.com.
There are some ways of finding out who the people are that you want to support. One way is to go to the internet and find out what people talk about. Examples of that are Quora.com, Google.com and Answers.com which are in essence question and answers fora. Visit there and discover who is talking about what, relevant to your niche of course.
During your extensive training, you will be asked to establish a link from your site to Google Analytics, which automatically analyses what people click on your posts, how many, age, gender and location, which is another very useful and Free tool to be used.
But how are you going to do business?
So now you have a website, built out your quality content, are ranked in search engines and there is a rise in people clicking to your content. In any of the niches we choose, there will be products, services and other help you can offer to your audience. Do you need to first buy the goods, services or others? The answer is: you do not and the solution is found in affiliate marketing. For your niche, you will join an affiliate marketing program of the applicable merchant, again for Free, and you will promote their products on your website. Promoting is usually done by reviewing the products.
Your unique link
As their affiliate, you will send people from your site to the merchant’s site via a unique link and when people buy, you will receive a commission. So, no buying or selling, no storage keeping, no logistics involved, you are only involved in the marketing campaign.
How to implement all this?
On the internet there are several programs that offer to teach you all of this, some legitimate, some are not. So why not enlist with the best of them all, Wealthy Affiliate (WA), which is scam-free and completely affordable. As a member of this platform for some years, I have written a personal review on all the ins and outs, pros and cons on WA, which will answer many of your questions. That article has a link through which you can access a one-week free trial, without any commitments from your side.
Anyway, I am open to all questions you may have on this truly unique and maybe once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

Join HSI Chief Safety Officer Jill James as she visits environmental health and safety professionals in their workplaces to explore important workplace safety topics. This video explains how to properly inspect exit signs, how often these inspections should take place, and the hazards that come with different exit discharge locations.
My name is Jill, Chief Safety Officer with HSI. I'm a former OSHA inspector here to help you identify and correct workplace safety hazards and discuss safety training.
Today I'd like to take a moment to honor the victims and the survivors of an industrial fire that happened in Hamlet North Carolina in 1991. 25 people lost their lives and 56 more were injured when the exits in their workplace were locked from the inside and they couldn't get out. Never make the assumption that the exits in your workplace are unobstructed or not locked or can be accessed and opened from the outside.
This is something that you should be doing as a workplace inspection as often as you do your fire extinguisher inspections, which is monthly if not more.
Here are a few things to know: The access to the exit cannot be obstructed. In fact the width of the path or access to the exit cannot be less than 28 inches wide. If you have stored equipment reducing the width of an exit, remove it and don't store explosives or flammables along the route or access to an exit. Ensure that the exit doors are not locked from the inside. It is acceptable to have doors locked from outside for security reasons however, they cannot be locked from inside when the building is occupied. If you have locks on your door make sure that the door locks are always open when the building is occupied.
Now another way to ensure that the doors can never be locked from the inside is to use something called panic hardware. Panic hardware on the inside of the door is a bar that goes across the door and it can be pushed and the door can easily be opened at any time, but security is maintained on the outside of your building because the door is always locked.
When you're doing your exit inspections be sure to always open the exit and check to see where your exit discharges. If your exit discharges into a fenced-in area make sure that employees can get out of that fenced-in area if they need to get away from the building completely so that they're not trapped inside the fenced in area. Also if your exit discharges onto a set of stairs, make sure there's a complete guardrail and hand rail system on the stairs so they can safely evacuate not fall over the edge. Additionally check to see that your exit exits to an even surface and it doesn't drop so that employees are falling out of an exit a couple of feet. And finally if you live in a climate where there's snow, be sure that during times of snow or snow storms that you're checking the exit on the outside to make sure that the door can be opened and it's not being blown shut by snow and ice.
I hope you gained a safety skill today if you know someone who needs this go ahead and pass it on.

Gallery Walk and Reception for Encounters: Vadis Turner
Sunday, July 31 | 2 p.m.
Included with admission and free for members.
Join us in celebrating the opening of a new exhibition, Encounters: Vadis Turner, with a gallery walk and reception.
After receiving her BFA and MFA at Boston University, Nashville-born artist Vadis Turner became fascinated by the possibilities presented by traditional handicraft materials to define and contradict conventional gender roles. Her mixed media work began with a debutante gown made out of wax paper from her mother’s kitchen. She continues to create works that transcend the commonplace from its intended function into a vehicle for social commentary. She observes, “Transforming domestic materials into contemporary art objects bonds me with ancestral forms of craft that determine a woman’s value, sexual worth and cultural identity. My time, like generations of women before me, is judged by what I make with my hands.”
Through exhibitions and residencies in France, the Czech Republic and Japan, Turner has deepened her vocabulary and expanded her perception of women’s work. She is both reviving and reinventing a function for handmade objects in a society with progressively fewer hands-on activities. Organized by HMA.
Reception hosted by:

Design consultants Greig and Stephenson have been appointed to draw up plans for the new Huddersfield Market.
Kirklees Council is seeking to combine the existing open market with Queensgate Market as part of the Huddersfield Blueprint regeneration.
The plans will see a single, improved market and include restoration of the Grade II* listed building at the current open market site. The council’s vision for the new market includes retaining the strong market presence that Huddersfield has always had.
Clr Peter McBride, Cabinet member for regeneration, said: “I am delighted that we have now appointed a design team to move our plans for Huddersfield New Market forward. We want to create a market culture with energy and vitality that will complement the more traditional high street shops.
“The market will be a social space that can offer a unique, personal, and ethical shopping experience alongside opportunities to test ideas, eat, learn and be entertained.
“This appointment is another important step towards achieving the vibrant, thriving town centre as set out in our ambitious Huddersfield Blueprint plans. “
Charles Smith, head of region North East and Yorkshire for Historic England, added: “The open market on Northumberland Street is a striking and handsome work of Victorian architecture
“We’re delighted that the council is investing in its future. Heritage has a key role to play in shaping a positive future for Huddersfield town centre and these works will complement our current partnership working in the St George’s Square High Street Heritage Action Zone.”
Greig and Stephenson Architects specialises in market redevelopment, both nationally and internationally. The practice is passionate about the wider social and economic regenerative qualities of markets, delivering market designs that work both operationally and economically for the client and wider stakeholders.
In addition, the council appointed Public Perspectives to carry out market research that was completed in May. The research gave the council insight into the shopping behaviours and views of communities.
The information, from the 1,000 responses to telephone surveys and online focus groups, will help shape the development of proposals to improve the Huddersfield market experience.
Over the summer, Greig and Stephenson will be developing a design for Huddersfield New Market, drawing on the findings of the market research, that not only ensures the longevity of the building fabric but also allows the market to function more efficiently and offer more to shoppers and visitors.
It will be essential that the new designs make the market significantly more visible and improve accessibility. | <urn:uuid:d8570bf3-9d33-49fa-ab1d-ba891c161f95> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://huddersfieldhub.co.uk/huddersfield-new-market-will-be-a-place-to-eat-learn-and-be-entertained/ | 2024-04-25T07:32:55Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712297290384.96/warc/CC-MAIN-20240425063334-20240425093334-00668.warc.gz | en | 0.943846 | 525 |
