Over the last few decades, the United States has been relying on technology more and more, to save the lives of our service members. Military engagements will always rely on ground troops to win battles, but technological advancements can reduce the number of casualties and that is seen by all as a very positive thing. Imagine for a moment if this technology had been available during the Iraq and Afghanistan campaigns, think of all the lives that could have been saved and battlefield casualties that could have been averted, I see this as a very positive thing for our military!
Warfare technology has taken a drastic leap forward with the recent unveiling of the Ripsaw M5 Electric Drive Super Tank. The wholly electric and unmanned armored vehicle is opening up the doors for a new generation of tank warfare, where soldiers are no longer required to put their lives on the line in hazardous scenarios; instead, they can remotely control a highly agile and reliable armored combat vehicle capable of performing even the most demanding operations.
The tank is currently being evaluated by the US army, and if deployed, it will be capable of achieving deeds currently impossible by manned tanks. The limber tank can dash at over 40 miles per hour and traverse over a wide variety of terrains in a combat scenario, and it uses state-of-the-art drone technology to position itself strategically. What’s more, its electric motor keeps the vehicle almost entirely silent, making it highly valuable for covert operations.
Bringing together speed of innovation and proven program execution, the M5 is ready for the fight. M5 is the 5th generation of RIPSAW providing speed, mobility and unmanned capability. The M5 can silently maneuver and keep pace with the current and future maneuver forces, pushing capabilities beyond the human formation.
- Proven robotic control and interfaces
- Hardened wireless connection
- Scalable/configurable armor, suspension and final drives
- Open architecture
- FLIR 360-degree perception technology
- Field modularity based on mission

The Greek word Philoxenia, literally translated as a “friend to a stranger,” is widely perceived to be synonymous to hospitality.
For Greeks, however, it is much deeper than that. It is an unspoken cultural law that expresses generosity and courtesy to strangers.
Greeks are enormously generous when inviting others to their home or being invited themselves. In villages, it is not uncommon for villagers to show up at the door of a resident foreigner (or even a temporary visitor renting a room) with a sack full of fresh tomatoes, or even a bottle of local olive oil.
Philoxenia today can be as simple as a smile, helping a stranded motorist, buying a meal for a homeless person, or opening your home to friends and family.
This cultural law has its origins in Ancient Greece. The Ancient Greek god Zeus is sometimes called Zeus Xenios, as he was also a protector of travelers. He thus embodied the religious obligation to be hospitable to travelers.
The beautiful story written by the Roman poet Ovid in 8 A.D of Zeus and Hermes disguised as poor travelers, narrates the sacred relation between host and guest, embodying the ancient Greek tradition.
The two ancient Greek Gods, the story goes, visited many villages in search of refuge for the night. A poor elderly couple, Baucis and Philemon, welcomed them as guests in their home and generously served them food and wine.
After refilling her guests’ cups many times over, Baucis noticed that the wine jug was still full. Philemon then realized the visitors were actually gods, and she offered to kill their only goose to feed them. Touched by this gesture, Zeus rewarded their generosity by transforming the humble cottage into a beautiful stone temple.
Zeus also granted the couple their ultimate wish, namely to be the guardians of the temple, to die at the same time, and stay together for eternity, as they were turned into trees guarding each side of the temple’s door.
According to legend, even an event as momentous as the Trojan War began because of a guest’s violation of xenia. The Trojan prince Paris was a guest of King Menelaus of Sparta when he abducted Menelaus’ wife, Helen.
Both the Odyssey and the Iliad are filled with episodes in which xenia is either honored or ignored and the subsequent consequences are notable. For instance, when Odysseus sails to the island of the cyclops, the monster’s treatment of Odysseus and his sailors is a violation of the custom of xenia. The cyclops is punished for the transgression. Odysseus blinds his “host” and escapes. The cyclops episode depicts an abuse of xenia.
In another story, Odysseus’ wife, Penelope, is forced by custom to entertain an entire household of suitors. The guests not only make unreasonable, burdensome requests that were impolite for guests but they do so with the assumption the host himself is no longer alive. The conclusion of the poem involves Odysseus’s slaughter of the suitors. This violent ending can be seen as retribution for an egregious abuse of xenia, or conversely, a violation of its very precepts.
Reasons for philoxenia
There are many possible reasons why hospitality (philoxenia) was more prevalent in those times. Traveling in Homer’s time was much more extensive and lengthier than in modern times. Because of this, many more nights were spent away from home in many different locations. Also, there were no hotels or inns where travelers could pay and stay the night.
Because of this, travelers had to rely on the hospitality of others for shelter, food, and protection. There was, however, some payment for this hospitality in the form of a gift exchange.
Another possible reason for this hospitality was the fact that there were no nations that would allow travelers to enter their territory safely. Without such hospitality, strangers could be captured or even killed for entering a foreign land.
Furthermore, Greek hospitality may have been vital because Greeks believed the gods wanted them to show hospitality to anyone who showed up at their homes. It was believed that turning away someone and not providing them this hospitality would result in some form of punishment from the gods.
Finally, Greek hospitality could have been key in spreading one’s name and bringing fame if a high standard of hospitality was provided to strangers. It might have even been a portrayal of wealth. | <urn:uuid:26021617-1ab3-407f-9856-d57947159b59> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://greekreporter.com/2023/07/06/philoxenia-the-ancient-roots-of-greek-hospitality/ | 2024-04-16T05:31:56Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817043.36/warc/CC-MAIN-20240416031446-20240416061446-00767.warc.gz | en | 0.977916 | 942 |
Commercial grading in construction can be a complex phase of building. It is important to properly plan and execute site grading. This includes everything from parking lots or small restaurants to high-rise office buildings.
What is site grading?
Before construction can begin, there must be some preparation. This includes land leveling and grading. Grading in construction is the process of shaping land to meet specific needs and has the following goals:
- Give the property the aesthetic you desire
- Ensure proper drainage
- Respect zoning regulations and other requirements
- Set the maximum height and depth for cuts, fills, or swales
Grading in construction: Benefits
Not only is it important for the building, but also for nearby homes and other buildings.
Poor grading in construction could lead to water runoff moving towards the building instead of being directed away. Hydrostatic pressure can cause structural damage if water builds up around or beneath the foundation.
Bad grading could also lead to water or pollutants being directed towards other properties. This can create liability for the owner or builder of the new facility. Erosion can also cause property damage.
To avoid problems due to improper grading, or non-compliance with land grading standards, many planning and zoning jurisdictions require that grading plans be approved before construction can begin.
Different types of grading in construction
What does “grading a lot” mean? There are many types of grading used in construction projects.
- Landscape Grading is required when a landscaping project, whether municipal or commercial, is underway. This may include topsoil removal to install irrigation systems, smoothening areas for planting, or modifying slopes and elevations to improve drainage. Landscape grading can be described as the act of changing land areas to alter water runoff patterns and/or alter property elevations. It is essential to do the job right to ensure drainage and get the best results.
- Architectural Grading – is the process of altering the land contours for a new home or housing development. It involves changing the landscape’s contours to allow drainage to be properly arranged, remove unwanted elevations and prepare foundation areas.
- Grading – This involves lowering or increasing the level of a particular land area. This could be a large area or a small project.
- Final Grade – For specific purposes, such as gravel roads or earthworks projects, grading includes the entire construction’s surface and cover, and not just the base. Finish grading is the final shaping of the area for planting, seeding or sodding. It is used in landscaping projects. Final grading is the finishing touches to the grading project. This step removes large chunks of soil and rocks from the surface to create a smooth finish.
- Rough Grading – This is the process of setting the slope or leveling an area in order to make it suitable for landscaping projects, such as turf development or fixing drainage problems. This could include the addition, removal, or relocation of topsoil. This stage forms the ground to the desired shape and elevations. It also creates the soil composition and establishes the drainage flow.
- Final Grade – To complete the grading and prepare for final landscaping or seeding, it is necessary to finish the surface using a material that encourages growth. To complete the grading process, final grading involves the application of screened topsoil or another similar material to cover the entire area.
How to get approvals for grading projects
Many municipalities and regions require grading plans before construction can start. In addition, inspections are necessary to ensure that the grade of the work is passing.
Grading in construction projects must be inspected before construction or landscaping can begin. This approval means that the elevations and drainage are consistent with the original grading plan.
Planning officials will need to evaluate site grading plans for several reasons.
- Lots size and coverage percentage – Many jurisdictions have minimum coverage requirements for buildings and other structures. This value provides reviewers with an instant reference point to help them determine if the requirement has been met.
- These statistics provide valuable information about how much material is needed to complete the cut and fill job.
- Property lines, easements and utility lines.
Methods and purposes of grading
Engineers with experience understand the impact of land grading techniques on final results. This includes:
- Respecting the client’s expectations and needs
- Make sure you have the right drainage
- Respect all federal, state, local and state requirements
A grading plan can seem overwhelming to anyone who first looks at it. Site grading plans provide a wealth of information about the current site condition and the proposed results. Examiners can then evaluate the plan and approve, deny, or make changes to it.

A driveway allows you to access your home, garage, or parking lot. It is safe for people and vehicles to use the driveway. There are many options for primary outlay materials when building a driveway. There are many options for finishing your driveway construction with concrete, limestone gravel, bitumen or asphalt.
A strong foundation
No matter what type of materials you choose, the most important thing is how you set the base for the pathway. The driveway’s strength and durability against daily loads will be determined by its bottom base.
You must deal with both the driveway’s top and bottom surfaces when building a foundation. A roller is essential for every stage of the construction process.
Make sure to level the ground.
After preparing the soil for your driveway and marking it, it’s time to level the space. To remove the dirt, you may need to either add soil or excavate some. You must then compact the soil sufficiently. A roller is better because it has enough weight to compress the soil. A roller has another advantage: it evenly spreads the soil within your designated area.
It compresses aggregates and stones.
After you have finished compacting the driveway’s bottom layer, your excavation company will supply and install the gravel. Depending on the location, they may drop off loads in the area that requires it and then spread the material with a Bobcat. If the weather is warm, the surface will then be rolled to compact it. Water helps to keep the material moist and binds it together when it is rolled. The gravel can be rolled to create a smoother driveway. It adheres to the surface and prevents people from slipping.
It provides a solid base for concrete or asphalt overlays
The layers that you have paved with rollers are excellent foundations for laying asphalt or concrete to your driveway’s surface. To prepare for concrete pouring or asphalt application, a vibrating double drum roller flattens and compacts the bottom layers.
You can complete your driveway construction by hiring equipment wet. This is a more efficient and practical option. Wet hiring services will provide you with high-quality results and a quicker time frame because they are professionals in what they do. These operators are licensed, insured, compliant, well-trained, and fully certified.

The alternate driver and advisor of the new Extreme E, Jutta Kleinschmidt has a more than significant relationship with Senegal, the country where the second X-Prix of the electric off-road series will take place.
And it is that Kleinschmidt became 20 years ago the first and only woman to win the Dakar Rally in 2001.
“It will feel in a way like coming home as it was a big moment for me winning there and changed many things for me. I still remember so clearly when I passed the finish line in 2001 especially – I am sure a lot of positive emotions will come up again,” she said.
She also expressed feeling excited to return to Senegal, a place that, according to her, she asserted, she has not visited since 2007 when the last Dakar was held in the African country.

The veteran explained that the Senegalese people are passionate about motorsports and that the African country is ideal to take the nascent Extreme E. Jutta stressed that people in Senegal somehow feel they own the racing series, Rally Dakar, because they always It will bear that name in honor of its tradition.
“I think everybody will love the Extreme E cars there too. To see these fantastic electric SUVs performing in such a way, so fast and so exciting to watch – the speed, the jumping, it will be amazing,” she pointed out.
The differences of AlUla and Lac Rose
For Kleinschmidt the first two X-Prix of the electric competition will have a big difference because Lac Rose will have much less dust than in the first prize of the desert in AlUla and the race will be more technical for the pilots.
Gender equality in competition
Jutta Kleinschmidt gave her opinion on the mandatory Extreme E rule that each team must have one driver and one female driver; her saying that it is positive for motorsport to see men and women competing as a team and with each other to demonstrate gender equality in the discipline.
“It’s also good for cross country racing and hopefully the ones that have not been in the Dakar before might try it as well, now they have raced in Extreme E and see what they can do! I can’t see any disadvantages at all, it’s great for everyone,” she added.
“The Electric Odyssey” returns on May 29-30 at the Pink Lake of Dakar, Senegal. It is important to mention that the leaders after the desert X-Prix are Rosberg X Racing who have Molly Taylor and Johan Kristoffersson and accumulate 35 points. Second is X44 (by Lewis Hamilton) with Cristina Gutiérrez, Sébastien Loeb and 30 units.

Exclusively maintained by Jaguar main dealers with the last visit being in January of this year when the car was fitted with a set of new front brake Pads/discs, brake fluid change and a new battery. In addition four new Pirelli Scorpions tyres were fitted at the same time. On the road this F-Pace performs beautifully, has recently been MOT’d (no advisories) and before delivery will be subject to a service/inspection by our local Jaguar specialist, along with a detailed professional valet, supplied with both keys and original handbooks.

Took father’s company car while banned from driving
A disqualified driver went joyriding in a car taken without the owner’s consent in the early hours of the morning.
Kieran McEntee, 22, of La Hure Mare Road, Vale, admitted driving while disqualified, taking a vehicle without the owner’s consent, and using a vehicle without insurance.
In 2019 he had been banned for driving for four-and-a-half years for offences which included dangerous driving and failing to stop for police. The ban was due to end on 15 March this year.
Prosecuting Advocate Sarah Watson told the Magistrate’s Court how the defendant’s father worked at a garage and had use of a company BMW which was nearly brand new and for sale. No one else was authorised to use it.
At 3.11am on 13 December last year, ambulance staff reported to police that the vehicle had been seen being driven on L’Ancresse Common. Officers saw it in La Jaonneuse Road going in the opposite direction. They turned to follow and despite accelerating to 40-50mph, the BMW was going faster and they were unable to stop it.
A search of the area commenced and at 3.40am the car was found abandoned on the forecourt of Trev’s Motorcycles at La Route du Passeur. There was no sign of the driver though a debit card belonging to one of his friends was found in the car, along with an opened bottle of vodka.
The indicator and wiper arms had been snapped off and the vehicle was covered in dirt. CCTV recovered from the garage showed the car driving on to the forecourt. The defendant and two occupants got out, with the defendant falling in a puddle as they ran away.
Officers went to his home later and arrested his father. The man said he had not been driving the car but said he knew who had – his son, who was drunk and who had been with his mates. He said his boss would ‘kill him’. A freshly washed light coloured hoodie was recovered from the kitchen and there was a muddy T-shirt in the hall.
McEntee junior was located at Guernsey Airport the following morning. He was on an aircraft having bought a one-way ticket to Gatwick at short notice. He was arrested.
He gave no comment responses to questions in interview and refused to identify himself when shown CCTV footage from the garage.
Defending, Advocate Chris Green said his client denied causing damage to the car and said it had been there before. He had been going through a period of immense family stress at the time.
He was annoyed with himself particularly as this happened so close to the end of his driving ban.
He denied trying the flee the island and said he had been going Christmas shopping with his girlfriend. He had other matters on his record but it was not an extensive one.
Judge Gary Perry told McEntee he would have been warned of the consequences of breaching the court’s disqualification order when it was imposed yet he had still done it.
He jailed him for four months for driving while disqualified with a four-year driving ban. Two months with a one year ban concurrent were meted for taking a vehicle without the owner’s consent.
A concurrent one-year driving ban was imposed for using a vehicle without insurance. | <urn:uuid:1bb18a38-7ae1-491a-8cf6-a35fe408893c> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://guernseypress.com/news/2024/04/02/took-fathers-company-car-while-banned-from-driving/ | 2024-04-16T04:48:40Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817043.36/warc/CC-MAIN-20240416031446-20240416061446-00767.warc.gz | en | 0.994943 | 705 |
Why don’t I have Instagram notes? This has been a popular question all over and today, we will try to explain what may be the issue.
On December 13, 2022, Instagram, the popular photo and video-sharing app owned by Meta, released several updates, one of which was “Instagram Notes,” a brand-new feature.
Users can maintain contact with their close friends’ thanks to the feature.
— Ahmed Ghanem (@ahmedghanem) June 20, 2022
What Are Instagram Notes?
In their most basic form, these are small Post-it notes that you can display for the interest of others.
You can use them to voice your opinion on the current state of the world or to ask a sincere question about the function of Instagram Notes.
Both of these uses are perfectly acceptable.
The Instagram Notes feature works well as a forum for users to air their opinions, but it’s also useful for businesses and brands.
They can be used to market your products, help customers, or even just keep in touch with your audience. (as long as you follow each other).
Why are Instagram Notes not working?
Unfortunately, Instagram Notes is not yet available in your location.
Instagram confirmed that a limited number of users are testing the “Notes” feature.
Consequently, some individuals have this feature while others do not.
If you have access to the feature, you can utilize it by accessing the direct messages screen.
To add a new note, tap the plus button once you’re there.
You must then decide with whom you wish to share the note.
You can share the note with either your list of close friends or with the followers you follow back.
Similar to Instagram Stories, the shared note will vanish after 24 hours.
If you do not wish to view other users’ notes, you can mute them in the same manner as stories.
Numerous users have complained that they cannot access the feature.
Consequently, they did not list the countries where the feature is available.
Even if you reside in a country where the feature is available, you may not have access to it.
This is due to the fact that only a limited number of individuals have access to notes.
The feature is still in testing, so you must wait until it is globally rolled out.
- Open the Instagram app and tap the Direct Message or Messenger icon in the upper right corner of your Feed.
- At the top of your Chat list, click the button containing your profile picture labelled Leave a note.
- Click Share your thoughts and enter your note. No longer than sixty characters.
- Choose who can view your note, whether it’s your reciprocal followers or close friends.
- Tap Share to distribute your note.
To delete a note, simply tap on it and select Delete note.
Your message will vanish after 24 hours.
When someone responds to your note, the resulting conversation will be limited to the two of you.
Moreover, others will not be able to see who viewed or responded to your note.
How to Fix Instagram Notes not showing
Method 1: Update your Instagram
The most straightforward solution for Instagram Notes not displaying is to update the Instagram app to the most recent version. In the App Store or Google Play, search for Instagram. If the Update option appears next to the Instagram app, select it to install the most recent version of the app.
Then, launch the Instagram app, tap the Messages icon, and confirm that the Note bubble appears. If this does not work, try the following steps.
Method 2: Change to a professional account
Switching to a professional Instagram account can resolve numerous issues with this app.
Tap the profile picture icon, then tap the three-dots menu, then tap Settings, then tap Account, and then tap Switch professional account. Follow the instructions on-screen to create your professional account.
Next, determine if the Notes option is available. If so, repeat the steps above to return to your personal Instagram account and check the Notes feature again.
Method 3: Activate activity status
You can enable the activity status to restore functionality to Instagram Notes.
Click the profile icon, then the three-line menu, then Settings, then Privacy, then scroll down to Activity Status, and enable the option to Display Activity Status.
Check if the Notes option is visible by visiting your Chat list and refreshing the page to see if the option is present.
Method 4: Uninstall and reinstall Instagram (iPhone)
If the Notes feature is still missing from your account, you can uninstall Instagram, delete the app, and reinstall it.
Open the Settings app, tap General, click iPhone Storage, select Instagram, click Offload App, and click Reinstall App to uninstall the Instagram app.
If you’re an Android user, simply uninstall and reinstall the Instagram app.
How do I enable notes on Instagram?
Honestly, enabling notes is not in your control. Ensure that your app is up-to-date and that you have a list of close friends. The remainder is Instagram’s responsibility.
What version of Instagram has Notes?
Instagram notes are available in all versions of the app. Just be sure to use the most recent version.
Does Instagram Notes available in all locations?
No, Instagram makes it very clear that the notes feature is only available in a few places. | <urn:uuid:568318f7-206c-45aa-91ff-bab73019854e> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://guidenova.com/why-dont-i-have-instagram-notes/ | 2024-04-16T03:54:50Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817043.36/warc/CC-MAIN-20240416031446-20240416061446-00767.warc.gz | en | 0.911692 | 1,133 |

Yamaha GigMaker Electric Guitar Pack – The Best Starter Pack
-Really high value for the money
-Guitar sounds great
-Guitar feels comfortable and easy to play
-Good sounding amp with nice features
-Instructional DVD gets you started
-Almost everything is good in this pack, the only exception is….
-…the guitar cable. It’s not so good.
-Not the best option for really heavy distortion
In my opinion, this is the best beginner electric guitar pack. The reason for this is an excellent price-quality ratio, great guitar, and amp.
The only really weak aspect of this pack is the guitar cable. And maybe, if you want to play heavy stuff and love the warm and thick sound, the Epiphone Les Paul pack with 2 humbuckers is the better option…
This guitar pack has been available for 10 years. The reason is this: they got it right the first time and it has been a high-quality pack since. My favorite electric guitar pack for beginners.

Yamaha GigMaker Electric Guitar Pack has been around for years, and many beginners have decided to start their guitar journey with it. But is really a good choice? Is the GigMaker pack worth your money?
Yamaha GigMaker Electric Guitar Pack includes:
- Yamaha PAC012 Pacifica guitar(with whammy bar)
- 2-channel Drive guitar amp, Yamaha GA 15 II
- gig bag
- Digital chromatic tuner
- Instruction DVD
- extra strings
Yamaha GigMaker Pack Review
With two single coils and a humbucker, this guitar can produce a lot of different tones from spanky blues to fast hard rock. If you want to play really heavy stuff, this guitar slightly loses for most of the two humbucker beginner guitars. Still, this guitar is really versatile, you’re definitely not going to be stuck inside one genre with this Pacifica.
I did not have any problems with sound(tested this guitar in my home and listened to a lot of sound demos). Yamaha can surely make a good-sounding guitar. Single-coils are a bit less bright than with Squier starts for example. This is not a con, but ask yourself which you like more, iconic bright tones of Squier or a bit more balanced tones of Yamaha?
Someone(I didn’t) can notice a little buzz in a sound. But the reason for that is probably the guitar cable which comes with the pack(it’s not good).
To me, this is a really versatile and good-sounding rock guitar.
I rented the guitar (Yamaha Pacifica 012) that this pack includes recently and made several videos about it. Here you can check the in-depth review:
If you want to see more videos, just go to Youtube, and search: ”Guitarist next door Yamaha Pacifica 012” and enjoy!
Out of to box action(distance between strings and fretboard) is pretty low and this makes this guitar easy to get started with. And with saddle adjustments, you can tune the action according to your liking easily.
The fretboard radius is 13 3/4″ (350mm), so it doesn’t have much curve at all. This makes moving your hand around the fretboard easy.
Nut width is only 1.614″(41mm), so the neck is narrow, and this is one reason why this guitar is easy to play and beginner-friendly (great for kids and teens too). But if you are buying a guitar for a really small kid, a smaller 3/4-sized guitar might still be a better choice.
The neck is also really comfortable. It has a versatile & round C shape and the edges are not too sharp and the guitar feels comfortable to play. The back of the neck feels smooth and the upper fret access is really solid too.
This is also not the heaviest beginner guitar. And because of this, I would think this is a good guitar for a kid who wants to start rocking.
My experiences with Yamaha guitar have always been good. For example, my C40 Classical guitar still plays like a charm after 11 years. But what about this PAC012?
When doing research, I found out that some people even buy used Yamaha PAC012 Pacifica guitars. These bad boys are that durable. The overall finish is excellent for the price, and I’m pretty sure that you can’t find better quality when buying a beginner guitar.
In my copy of a Pacifica 012, there were some minor finish issues, you can learn more about those from my in-depth Yamaha Pacifica 012 review.
But I can’t find any major flaws from this guitar when I look at it from the beginner standpoint. Tuning stability is a bit over the average when compared to other models at this price range and there was no need to constantly tune this guitar.
PAC012 looks similar to the original Stratocaster but has slightly bigger curves. Personally, I like the looks of the original Stratocaster more, but this is no game-breaker. I also think that some colors just don’t fit this body shape so well(white). Black is my favorite color for this guitar, although these are only my personal preferences.
The pack comes with Yamaha’s own 15-watt, 2-channel Drive guitar amp, and this amp gets points from me. I’m so glad that Yamaha included a decent amp to this pack.
Amp performs well with both channels and gives you all that you need from a beginner guitar amp. It includes nice equalization features for beginners, so you can dial the tones according to your preferences easily.
Some say that the amp has a slight buzzing sound in it, this might be due to the single-coil pickups of the guitar or if a high volume is used. But there is a high chance that the guitar cable that comes with the pack is the reason for this buzzing too.
You can plug headphones to this amp too. It also has AUX input, so you can easily jam with your favorite songs.
If you want to hear how this amp sounds, watch this video(note that in this video, a different guitar is used. You still get a good idea of how the amp sounds tho):
Picks=decent. These will get you started, but I personally can’t imagine myself playing with any other pick than Dunlop Max-Grip Nylon Jazz III. I recommend that you try out those at some point.
The Gigbag could be a little more protective, but it’s not too bad either. It got you covered against small bumps and dust.
The Tuner handles the job. No major problems with it. The same applies to the guitar strap, of course, it’s not the most comfortable, but it is not weak like in some packs.
The instructional DVD will get you started. It’s great for beginners, but it should be time for Yamaha to upgrade for a digital guide.
Also, I think that this post does an even better job of kickstarting your guitar career: How to Play Guitar? Get Started Fast and Free!
Extra strings are a nice plus too, although the strings are not the best in quality or feel.
The Guitar cable is pretty bad. It’s definitely the worst aspect of this guitar pack. It can cause some buzzing sound and I recommend that you replace the cable as soon as possible. This post helps you with that: Best Guitar Cable Under $20 in 2022 – Buyer’s Guide.

Runner-Up – Squier Affinity Stratocaster Beginner Pack
If you are more of an original Stratocaster guy or gal, this fender pack is a solid option.
Fender is known for its great guitars that are a pleasure to play. And for a beginner, this Squier pack offers some of that Fender magic. Great sounding and easy to play guitar, solid amp and 3-months Fender play learning for free. The guitar also offers slightly brighter tones than the Yamaha Pacifica 012.
You can read my full review of this guitar pack here: Squier Affinity Stratocaster Beginner Pack Review 2022 – Before You Buy.
Yamaha GigMaker pack is better in my opinion because it offers more value for the money (this Squier pack is around 100 bucks more expensive). But this pack is still a good choice for some players.

Best Les Paul Pack – Epiphone Les Paul Electric Guitar Player Pack
If you are into heavier stuff or you just love Les Paul- type guitars, this pack is a solid choice. The guitar is fun to play, plus you get thick and great-sounding humbucker tones. Note that upper fret access is a little bit worse with Les Paul-type guitars, and this is no exception. But still, crunchy riffs and rock solos are made for this guitar.
An amplifier that comes with this guitar pack is slightly worse than the amp coming with the Yamaha pack, but this Epi pack is still a great option for Les Paul and metal lovers.

There is no way around it, Yamaha GigMaker is my favorite beginner guitar pack. If I were a beginner and looking for a starter pack, this would be my pick. But those 2 alternative packs I mentioned are also great choices.

Lakshmi Dwadash Naam Stotram is the divine name of Lakshmi. Goddess Lakshmi is the Hindu Goddess of prosperity (both material and spiritual), wealth, fertility, good fortune, and courage.
She is said to bring good luck in life. These are the 12 names of Mahalakshmi which bring success, good karmas & enlightenment in life.
Mahalakshmi is the Hindu Goddess of wealth, prosperity, and fortune. She is said to bring good luck in life. Goddess Laxmi is one of the most worshiped deities in the Hindu religion, believed to help in acquiring wealth, status, greatness, and fame.
She is the wife and shakti of Vishnu. Lakshmi is considered another aspect of the same supreme goddess principle in the Shaktism tradition of Hinduism.
Lakshmi is depicted in Indian art as an elegantly dressed, prosperity-showering golden-colored woman with an owl as her vehicle, signifying the importance of economic activity in the maintenance of life, her ability to move, work and prevail in confusing darkness.
It is believed that one who recites the Dwadash Naam Stotram continuously for 2 months achieves everything he desires and one who recites this stotra for six months attains every material comfort and lives like a king.

In the summer of 2021, the Senate in the United States decided on a report that contained information about UFOs, obtained by the US military. In connection with this report, several of the witnesses were interviewed by the renowned investigative journalism program “60 minutes”. A fighter pilot was one of the witnesses in the report. He had flown up and down the country’s east coast almost every day for two years. At the same location every day, he and his colleagues observed unidentified objects moving abnormally just above the surface of the water. Could it be that these objects came from a world below the surface of the sea? Because we know more about the universe than about the bottom of the sea, so it might as well be where they come from? Perhaps from Atlantis itself?
The lost city of Atlantis was first described by Plato as the most technologically advanced city, with the smartest people. The city was swallowed by the sea, without anyone being able to tell how it happened. Could it be that some of the people were trapped in an air pocket inside the city, where they learned to work together to survive. They had to throw away their old methods of fighting and destroying each other, and rather cooperate. In this way, they achieved a much better technology than us, and created vessels that are just as good on land as they are on water. Because it is during war that we have the most advanced technological development. It shows us that the resources are there, it’s just a matter of will.
Life arose at the bottom of the ocean, near hydrothermal vents, where chemistry was transformed into biology. These have been found along the Atlantic ridge, one of several potential locations for the fabled city. We have evolved a lot since the time proteins bound together and created life as we know it today. The planet is full of amazing creatures, all descended from the same bacteria that first saw the light of day about 4 billion years ago. The dolphin, which, like us, has passed the “Mirror test”, is obviously an intellectual creature, and is, like us, a predator. But at the same time, the dolphin is also a skilled hunter who uses cooperation to gain an advantage over the other animals. But now the dolphin faces a powerful enemy it cannot defeat on its own. The bacteria that once filled the world’s oceans have evolved into hyperintellectual creatures that not only send humans to the moon, but also create global climate change.
The legend tells of when the Sumerian King Gilgamesh, about nine thousand years ago, dived to the bottom of the sea to find a plant that would give him eternal life, cursed the gods, who sent a flood of sin. The legend depicts what happened when the last ice age ended. Then the temperature on earth rose violently, so that the glaciers melted and the oceans spread. They rose as much as one meter a year for one hundred and twenty years, in the area around the ancient Sumerian Empire in present-day Iraq. This event had major consequences all over the world and may be the reason why the high-tech Atlantis sank into the sea.
Now that humanity has ruled the Earth’s underworld for over nine thousand years, they have managed to create a new global warming, so that history repeats itself. This time, it is not just human civilizations that are exposed to rising seas, but all the world’s creatures are exposed in an increasingly vulnerable ecosystem. While technologists like Elon Musk talk about populating Mars and turning us into Aliens out there in the universe, we believe that humans must balance the accounts here on Earth and solve the challenges we face, before we go out into the universe and populate plants there. By being inspired by the dolphin’s cooperative abilities, but throwing off the predator mentality, we can solve all the problems we face and achieve a symbiosis with the rest of nature, instead of destroying it. | <urn:uuid:bd67437b-d220-45ae-a9c5-7357467cbe43> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://guttestreker.com/produkt/an-atlantis-adventure/ | 2024-04-16T03:47:30Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817043.36/warc/CC-MAIN-20240416031446-20240416061446-00767.warc.gz | en | 0.972175 | 804 |
Donations to the University dropped for the first time in five years, just as GW prepares to launch its largest fundraising campaign to date.
The University raised $103 million over the last fiscal year, a 14 percent decline from last year’s record fundraising haul, which included one of the biggest gifts in GW’s history.
It is the first decline under Vice President for Development and Alumni Relations Mike Morsberger, who has grown GW’s fundraising staff by 30 percent since he came aboard in 2010. The number of staffers tripled between 2005 and 2009.
Morsberger attributed the decrease to an inflated total last year, when the University tallied a $25 million donation to establish the GW Museum and the Textile Museum, bringing the total fundraising to $120 million.
“It’s a rather extraordinary gift and an extraordinary partnership. We don’t expect those every year,” Morsberger said. “We’re always gunning for big gifts and I’m always hoping that we break a record again, but we feel pretty good about the $103 million.”
The rate of fundraising began to slow during fiscal year 2012, after two years of double-digit growth.
Both the 2012 and 2013 fundraising totals will count as part of the University’s massive years-long fundraising campaign, which will likely be launched within the next year. That heavy fundraising will support GW’s 10-year strategic plan, which was approved in May.
GW’s total this year is less than what the Council for Advancement and Support of Education’s Fundraising Index projected schools nationwide would see. It estimated schools would see a 7.1 percent growth from the year before.
But Lee Gardner, a senior editor at the Chronicle of Higher Education who covers finance, said while fundraising totals are on the rise nationally, GW’s drop is “not to the degree that it’s concerning.” He also said one-time gifts make it difficult to compare school’s fundraising totals from year to year because they “skew” totals.
“A big gift will make you seem like you have a great year, but if you do well all things considered but don’t have an enormous gift, you still may have done well, but not as well,” Gardner said. “While no one wants to turn down a large gift, it can make other years look more feeble in comparison.”
University President Steven Knapp has made fundraising a priority since he arrived in 2007, tying deans’ job performances to pulling in donor dollars. Donations more than doubled last year from Knapp’s first year when total donations totaled a paltry $58 million.
But compared to other institutions, which have spent decades building up its fundraising base, particularly among alumni, GW’s fundraising rates are far behind.
The year also brought some good news for GW’s fundraising team.
Patty Danver, a spokeswoman in the Division of Development and Alumni Relations, added that the number of parents who donated to GW nearly tripled after the office increased visits and mailings to students’ families. Staffers also targeted parents based on region.
GW officials and staff members also took 5,500 donor visits, about a 27 percent increase from the year before, Danver said.
The amount of money raised from annual gifts also increased by $2 million, reaching an all-time high at $12.8 million in annual gifts.
Morsberger also noted that total gifts in cash was up this year by $10 million dollars, which is an 18 percent increase from fiscal year 2012. He attributed the $85 million in cash on hand mainly to people paying off commitments more quickly.

Due to an editing error, The Hatchet incorrectly reported that fundraising staff tripled since Mike Morsberger arrived at GW in 2010. In fact, it tripled during the four years before he arrived and only increased by 30 percent since he was hired. | <urn:uuid:fe6ffea9-7402-4d4a-bce4-1a1cd446edfd> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://gwhatchet.com/2013/08/25/fundraising-slips-amidst-massive-campaign/ | 2024-04-16T05:23:34Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817043.36/warc/CC-MAIN-20240416031446-20240416061446-00767.warc.gz | en | 0.966797 | 858 |

If you’re a student, trying to make a few extra bucks, getting a part-time job can make all the difference. We’ve compiled a list of some of Canada’s highest paying part-time jobs, including best paying part-time jobs for students. We’ll show you how to get a study permit for Canada and the best part-time jobs to make your life in Canada safe and easy.
In the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, freelance jobs are increasing. Working through freelance portals like Upwork or Fiverr can help you earn from home, on your own time. Freelancing is one of the highest-paying part-time jobs in Canada, with many freelancers earning above $25 per hour.
You can set your hours and choose your clients. You’ll be able to work from home and fit the work into your schedule. Working online can lay the foundation for your future career and build experience as you’ll be doing paid work with real clients.
However, building a client base isn’t easy, particularly when you start. There’s little consistency with how much money you can make freelancing. You need the skill to sell on the freelancer marketplace. The most sought-after freelance work is primarily for content writers, web & graphic designers and translators.
Here are some tips to help, before you start:
- Build a profile on multiple sites as early as possible.
- Be sure to answer every posted job you feel you’d be able to do.
- Be patient.
- Have a portfolio of work to convince potential clients of your abilities.
2. Sales Assistant
Working as a sales assistant is a straightforward job, can be one of the best paying part-time jobs for students, and provides the stability freelancing lacks. This is a solid place to get your first part-time job in Canada if you’re a student.
There are always vacancies in retail. Certain universities have programs designed to employ international students at certain campus businesses. The work has more stability, usually having a weekly or monthly salary with commission. It also helps you learn specific skills like sales, language and handling customers. In addition, depending on where you get to work, the job could be relatively easy.
The hours are less flexible than freelance work. You’ll usually get shifts based on your availability. You’ll also have to deal with demanding customers.
There are a few things to think about before you start looking to work as a sales assistant.
- If you’re studying, check your campus job portal, as there’s a good chance you can find work on campus.
- Many businesses advertise vacancies on sites like Indeed or ZipRecruiter.
One of the best paying part-time jobs for students is serving in a restaurant, bar or café. The jobs are usually easy to get, and often there is no experience required to work as a server. There is always a base pay, but most of your income will be from tips. The average tip in Canada is 15-20 percent of the total bill. You can ask to work at a specific time in the week and move your shifts around, provided you tell your employer well enough in advance.
As you’re working for a business, you’ll have to fit into their timetable. There may be many late nights if you’re working in a bar or nightclub. The base pay is typically meagre, so you’ll rely on those customers’ tips. Working with customers often requires good English/French. The service environment can be chaotic and lead to burnout.
There are some ideas to keep in mind:
- If it’s your first server job, you’re best off working in a smaller establishment.
- While you may earn less, it will be easier to assimilate.
- Start on campus or in your local area if you’re a student.
- Get to know your co-workers. They’ll know the job better than you and can help.
Are you over 21? Do you have a valid driver’s licence, a reliable car and a smartphone? Then, you have an excellent chance with one of the highest-paying part-time jobs in Canada: ridesharing through companies like Uber and Lyft.
Like freelancing, you can set your hours. It can be lucrative depending on how much you work. You can get to know your new city’s ins, outs, and people through this job.
However, it can be time-consuming. There is always work, and often people burn out trying to get the maximum rides each day.
For your best start in this job, follow these guidelines:
- Ensure your language skills are strong to interpret directions from customers.
- Start slow and only take on more if you can handle it.
- Only look into this part-time job if you live in a large city with a large customer base.
- An excellent place to start is at your local airport as there is always work.
One of the best-paying part-time jobs for students is a tutor. As a tutor, you’ll be able to work on campus or at a nearby school. You’ll usually work within your chosen career path. If you’re a freelance tutor for one-on-one clients, you can set your hours. This path can be very lucrative without being too time-consuming.
To be a tutor can require a lot of time and effort spent preparing for lessons and marking exercises. In addition, you must set your hours to the class timetable if you teach a class. Otherwise, you’ll have to work with the availability of the student. The results you get out of the students dictate your success. You’ll also need to have a proven track record in your chosen subject, which could be as little as having good grades in school or studying a specific subject at university.
Essential things are:
- Often you will be able to apply for a tutor role through your institution or a local agency.
- Stick to teaching what you know.
- If you struggle with speaking publicly, start tutoring one-on-one to get used to the role.
- Have something that validates your experience.
Get a Canadian Study Permit
Getting a study permit in Canada is the first, most crucial step. The process isn’t difficult, provided you match the necessary criteria and follow it correctly.
The first step is to enrol at a Designated Learning Institution (DLI). A DLI is an educational institution approved by the Canadian government for international students to study. Here is a list of DLIs from the Canadian government.
If a DLI accepts you, you must apply for a study permit. To do so, you’ll need:
- The acceptance letter from your DLI.
- A valid travel document
- Proof you can finance yourself and any dependants while in Canada.
You may need additional documents including:
- a certificat d’acceptation du Québec
- letter explaining your reasons for moving to Canada
- a custodian declaration, if you’re under 18
Once you have your documentation, you must pay your processing and biometric fees. This goes for everyone applying for a visa. The costs involved are as follows:
Canadian Study Permit Fees | |
Fee | Amount in CAD$ |
Study permit – per person | $150 |
Restore status + new study permit | $350 |
Biometrics – per person | $85 |
Biometrics – per family | $170 |
Electronic Travel Authorization (eTA) | $7 |
These costs will only go through at the end of your application.
Next, you need to have your medical exams by an approved panel physician and get police clearance. You can have your medical exam done after you submit your application. If so, the Immigration Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) will send instructions on doing your medical tests.
Then, you must wait for your application results. The waiting time depends on your country but generally takes around 16 weeks.
Can I do part-time jobs in Canada as a student if I don’t have a work permit?
Yes. International students are allowed part-time jobs. They need a valid study permit, be enrolled at a DLI, studying a secondary-level vocational program in Quebec, or enrolled in a professional training program of six months or more. If you’re not a student, you’ll need a work visa.
What are the best cities in Canada for international students to find work?
Canada is famously welcoming to international students. As a result, all major cities offer plenty of part-time work opportunities for internationals. The best cities for work are Vancouver, Ottawa, Montreal, Toronto, Calgary and Burnaby.
How do you get a part-time job in Canada?
You need to make sure you have a Social Insurance Number (SIN), a CV and a cover letter to apply to most establishment jobs. Universities often have requirements to apply for on-campus employment. However, server and retail jobs usually only need an interview and some form of identification.
Get To Work
When you arrive in a new country and have to balance work with your other responsibilities, finding a way to make money on the side can make all the difference. Whether you choose the traditional routes of working as a tutor, server or retail or prefer the freeform employment of freelancing or ridesharing, there are plenty of part-time jobs in Canada. Playing to your skills or interests will be the most beneficial. Overall, the highest-paying part-time jobs in Canada are often right outside your front door. | <urn:uuid:5da6fdc9-16d5-4608-a47d-7cdb32bf4ed7> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://gzeladn.com/part-time-jobs-in-canada/ | 2024-04-16T04:19:55Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817043.36/warc/CC-MAIN-20240416031446-20240416061446-00767.warc.gz | en | 0.946112 | 2,048 |
Data centers generally support the storage, processing, and transmission of data. Those data are potentially vulnerable to theft and misappropriation. As a result, a series of audits, certifications, and reports have been created to build best practices and reduce attack vulnerabilities. While many global industries ascribe and follow many different audits, certifications, and reports, some of the most well-known in the United States include SOC, ISO, PCI and HIPAA.
Data center users or owners of the storage, processing or transmission process may be required to complete such audits or certifications on an annual basis. Consequently, if such users lease data center services from an outsourced colocation company like H5 Data Centers, the users may require the data center provider to also be audited or certified, or at a minimum aid the data user in the completion of such audits and certifications. Even if the data center provider does not actually have anything to do with the data an end user may store on their computer hardware, a data center provider is very likely involved in the physical protection of such hardware equipment.
A Service Organization Controls (SOC) report is designed to help service organizations that operate information systems and provide information system services to other entities build trust and confidence in their service delivery processes and controls. The report is typically completed annually by an independent Certified Public Accountant (CPA) and includes a detailed description of tests of controls performed by the CPA and results of the tests. There are several types of SOC reports - SOC 1, SOC 2 and SOC 3.
A SOC 1 report performs critical risk assessment procedures and tests the related control objectives on financial reporting and it can be a Type 1 or Type 2 report. A SOC 1 Type 1 report tests achievement of control objectives on a specific date, while the SOC 1 Type 2 report adds design and testing of the controls over a period of time. Providing a reliable tool for data end users and their auditors when performing an audit, a SOC 1 report can help data end users readily comply with mandated financial laws and regulations to enhance adherence to corporate responsibilities and combat corporate and accounting fraud relevant to the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002.
A SOC 2 report contains much of the same elements found in a SOC 1, however, it focuses on an organization's non-financial controls such as information systems that are relevant to security, availability, processing integrity, confidentiality or privacy. Like a SOC1, a SOC 2 report can also be either Type 1 or 2. The same concept applies between a Type 1 or a Type 2 - the question is whether the testing is on a specific date or over a period of time, respectively. The SOC 2 report focuses on the Trust Service Principles (TSPs) and serves to educate the user entity about processes that affect its security, availability, processing integrity, confidentiality or privacy of the data.
A SOC 3 report are a short-form report and contain no description of tests of controls and results, and may be used in a service organization's marketing efforts.
Data center users often need or want to comply with audit requests from outside accounting firms, so the results of a SOC report and test can help make those audits run more smoothly. SOC reports communicate, in a standardized method, the resiliency of internal controls whether the report covers financial reporting (SOC 1) or financial and non-financial controls such as security, availability, processing integrity, confidentiality, and/or privacy (SOC 2).
The ISO/IEC 27000 family of standards helps organizations keep information assets secure. Within the 27000 standards family is ISO/IEC 27001 which is known for providing the standard requirements for an information security management system (ISMS). An ISMS is a systematic approach to managing sensitive organizational information so that it remains secure. It includes people, processes and IT systems by establishing, implementing, maintaining and continually improving an information security management system within the context of the organization. It also includes requirements for the assessment and treatment of information security risks tailored to the needs of the organization. It helps small, medium and large businesses in any sector keep information assets secure.
Organizations either must comply or voluntarily elect to comply to various regulations regarding data protection, privacy and IT governance. ISO 27001 can bring in the methodology which enables organizations to meet such regulations and standards in an efficient way.
ISO 27001 is the only auditable international standard that defines the requirements of an information security management system (ISMS). Certification demonstrates that an organization has defined and implemented best-practice policies, procedures, processes, and systems that manage information risks.
The Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) is an information security standard for organizations that handle financial transactions of "branded credit cards." The PCI Standard is mandated by such "credit card brands" and administered by the Payment Card Industry Security Standards Council. Created to implement standards for security policies, technologies, and on-going processes, the PCI standard tries to protect payment systems from breaches and theft of cardholder data.
Maintaining payment security is required for essentially all entities that store, process or transmit cardholder data. Guidance for maintaining payment security is provided in PCI security standards, which set the technical and operational requirements for organizations accepting or processing payment transactions, and for software developers and manufacturers of applications and devices used in those transactions. The PCI Data Security Standard can help defend against cyberattacks aimed at stealing cardholder data.
"PCI" serves the complex global ecosystem of payment cards, including hardware and software developers who create and operate the global infrastructure for processing payments. From customers to merchants, financial institutions, and data centers, the security of cardholder data affects everybody. Traditional outsourced data center and colocation providers, like H5 Data Centers, don't necessarily store payment information on any hardware equipment, however, they are involved in physical processes and standards to reduce and deter the physical taking of hard assets that deal with processing payments.
The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA), Public Law 104-191, is intended to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of the US health care system. HIPAA requires the adoption of national standards for electronic health care transactions and code sets, unique health identifiers, and security resulting from electronic technology that could erode the privacy of health information. The Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health (HITECH) Act of 2009 (as part of American Recovery and Reinvestment Act) modified HIPAA to include business associates of covered entities directly liable for compliance with certain requirements of the HIPAA Privacy and Security Rules. The HIPAA Privacy Rule protects the privacy of individually identifiable health information, called Protected Health Information (PHI), while the Security Rule protects a subset of information covered by the Privacy Rule, which is all individually identifiable health information a covered entity creates, receives, maintains or transmits in electronic form. The Security Rule calls this information "electronic Protected Health Information" (e-PHI).
The Administrative Safeguards provisions in the Security Rule require covered entities to perform risk analyses as part of their security management processes. An ongoing risk analysis process focuses on Security Management Process, Security Personnel, Information Access Management, Workforce Training and Management, as well as periodic Evaluation, Facility Access and Control, Workstation and Device Security, Audit Controls, Integrity Controls, and Transmission Security.
As a business associate and covered entity, a data center user in the health care space must be compliant with applicable national standards of HIPAA to avoid a material breach or violation of its obligation under HIPAA and must take reasonable steps to cure the breach or end the violation. Violations include the failure to implement safeguards that reasonably and appropriately protect e-PHI. The Security Rule establishes a set of national standards for confidentiality, integrity and availability of e-PHI. The US Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) Office for Civil Rights (OCR) is responsible for administering and enforcing these standards and laws, in concert with its enforcement of the Privacy Rule, and may conduct complaint investigations and compliance reviews.
Outsourced data center and colocation providers, like H5 Data Centers, typically don't store any e-PHI directly, however, they are involved in physical processes and standards to reduce and deter the physical taking of hard assets that deal with electronic health records and e-PHI.

As the Secretary of State knows, the Welsh Labour Government are making a thank-you payment of £500 to every social care worker in Wales. Does he agree that it is a kick in the teeth to those workers that the Treasury intends to tax that bonus payment, and will he join me and the Welsh First Minister in urging the Chancellor to think again?
We have discussed this at Wales questions before. It is disappointing that the Welsh Government did not discuss this in greater detail with the Treasury earlier on, because we could have found a way around it. Those discussions are ongoing, and there is a reasonably positive dialogue, but as I say, the answer to this would have been found in earlier engagement, rather than by their making an announcement that they knew required primary legislation for which there was not time.
On Friday, the First Minister of Wales said that it had been “impossible” to get a “sensible answer” from the UK Government on the plans to allow travel to foreign countries. At the beginning of this crisis, we regularly heard from the First Minister that he had just come off a call with the UK Government, and we know that ministerial implementation groups were being used to co-ordinate a four-nations approach. Despite the numbers that the Secretary of State quoted, there seems to be a communications breakdown. Does he believe that the Government could have done more to work more closely with Wales and other devolved nations during this crisis?
I was talking to the First Minister about this only a few days ago, and he described the particular occasion that the hon. Lady refers to as the exception rather than the rule. As I mentioned, there have been 124 meetings between the two Governments. Actually, dialogue is pretty good, and in eight out of 10 cases, we reach agreement—albeit not necessarily in the greatest of humour, but we do reach agreement. The relationship is better than we sometimes read in the press.
The loss of over 1,400 jobs at Broughton is a devastating blow for not only the workers on site and in the supply chain but the whole economy of north Wales. What discussions has the Secretary of State had recently with Airbus and Welsh Ministers, and when will his Government come forward with a specific sector deal to support the aerospace industry in Wales and across the UK?
I am pleased to report that we have had regular conversations with Airbus throughout the pandemic and very recently, as well as with the Welsh Government and stakeholders in the north Wales and Broughton area. Airbus has reported that the industry has had between £6 billion and £10 billion-worth of UK Government support so far. Discussions with the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy are ongoing about other areas where help can be provided. My colleagues, led by my hon. Friend the Member for Delyn (Rob Roberts), have been at the front of that, looking at any other areas in which we can help the industry to remain in Broughton not just now but in five and 10 years’ time. We are open to further discussions.
Sadly, there are not just sectoral problems for aerospace. With Bridgend now reeling from the INEOS threat to take jobs elsewhere, it is clear that Wales and the UK face fierce international competition. Can the Secretary of State explain what he and his Government are doing to develop a UK-wide industrial strategy and a trade policy that will help to retain, create and attract the new green jobs of the future?
I have initial discussions with INEOS tomorrow. This is a deal between the Welsh Government and INEOS, so in a sense, that question should be addressed to the relevant Minister in the Welsh Government. That said, the inability or unwillingness of the Welsh Government to make any moves at all on improving the M4 relief road has played a part, it is rumoured, in the decision that INEOS has taken. In the wider context, I hope the hon. Lady can remain in her seat or one near it for Prime Minister’s questions and the statement from the Chancellor afterwards, as I believe that some of the questions she raised may be answered at that stage. | <urn:uuid:be2fdd9a-a817-4b47-8ff0-d220aa692458> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://hansard.parliament.uk/Commons/2020-07-08/debates/F2053F8F-4069-49BE-A8CA-38F611FE90FC/Covid-19Outbreak | 2024-04-16T05:33:23Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817043.36/warc/CC-MAIN-20240416031446-20240416061446-00767.warc.gz | en | 0.981094 | 846 |
If you’re interested in playing casino games over the Internet, there are a number of reputable online casinos to choose from. These sites offer a wide range of games and many of them have bonuses to entice players. You can sign up for a free account and try out different games to see which ones you enjoy before depositing real money. Once you have registered, you can access your casino anytime you want.
The first step to finding the best casino online is to check whether it has a valid gaming licence. A licence will give you peace of mind that the casino is following all applicable gambling laws and has your safety in mind. Additionally, the licence will indicate which countries the casino is licensed to operate in. This will help you avoid any potential problems in the future.
Another thing to keep in mind when choosing an online casino is customer service. Look for a site that offers 24/7 support and has staff available to answer your questions. It’s also a good idea to find out which payment methods the casino accepts, and how quickly you can deposit and withdraw funds. Some of the most popular options include debit and credit cards, e-wallets like PayPal, and bank wire transfers.
Aside from checking the license, you should also read the terms and conditions of each casino. This will give you an idea of the types of games they have and how much they cost. If you’re looking for a particular game, be sure to check the minimum and maximum bets. Also, look for bonus codes that can increase your bankroll. These are usually advertised on the homepage or in other areas of the website.
Casino online games can be fun, but you must always remember that they are based on chance. It’s easy to get caught up in the rush of the games and lose track of how much you’re spending. To avoid this, you should set a budget before starting to play. Also, it’s important to take regular breaks when playing to ensure you don’t overextend yourself.
Online casino games can be played on desktop and mobile devices, and most of them have a live dealer option that lets you interact with a real dealer in a real casino setting. These features can make your gaming experience more immersive and add a personal touch to your gameplay. Depending on the type of casino game, you may also be able to win cash prizes and other rewards.
To find the best casino online, look for one that offers the games you want and has a high payout rate. Some of the top casino sites offer a large selection of games that are suitable for all skill levels. Some even offer a variety of perks, such as loyalty bonuses and tournament entry tickets. These perks can boost your winning chances and give you the edge over the competition. In addition to these perks, most online casinos also offer live chat support, so you can always get the help you need when you need it. | <urn:uuid:b53117a2-04a1-406c-8ad7-4c13448c24c7> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://happeninrecords.com/how-to-find-the-best-casino-online-3/ | 2024-04-16T04:10:10Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817043.36/warc/CC-MAIN-20240416031446-20240416061446-00767.warc.gz | en | 0.956469 | 599 |
It’s official: Brits are having less sex. Is technology and stress really to blame, or is our lack of self-acceptance at the core of our problems?
It’s not something we really talk about, but let’s be honest: sex is great, isn’t it? It’s good for your heart, acts as a stress buster, and keeps tension at bay – what’s not to love? Yet according to findings published in the British Medical Journal, nearly a third of us haven’t had sex in the past month. That’s… not so great.
We’re at a point in history where it feels like, for the most part, we’ve got more freedom to be open about what (and who) we love than ever before. Yet for some of us, getting over that first hurdle – accepting ourselves, and what we enjoy – feels like the hardest.
Despite kink-based novels and films making mainstream headlines for nearly a decade, many of us can still struggle with our desires. Love it or hate it, Fifty Shades of Grey sparked debate, and brought rarely-discussed sexual desires into the eye of mainstream commentary. Yet beneath the best-sellers and star-studded cast, and past mainstream publications focusing on ‘weird extreme’ fetishes, sits actual individuals facing a whole host of issues and worries.
Recognising you have sexual urges outside of what society considers ‘normal’ is just the first step. Sure, there may be a community, ready and waiting with open arms – but self-acceptance isn’t always that easy. Do you ‘come out’ as kinky, or keep things firmly behind closed doors? How do you balance sharing with oversharing? Do you risk shutting loved ones out of an entire part of your life by keeping your desires secret?
Sounds complicated. We asked members of the fetish community to share their thoughts on how they came to accept their inner desires.
Coming out as kinky
Will, a programmer approaching his mid-30s, shares his experiences with us as an ‘out and proud’ member of the fetish community. First realising his fetishes as a teen, Will spent years going through binge and purge cycles with his desires, before he felt ready to open up and speak out.
“I struggled with my attractions. Many in the community describe binge and purge cycles before they found acceptance. Because an inclination to kink is often considered perverse, I feel it can naturally make people hide this part of themselves.
“I remember throwing everything away, furiously deleting my internet history and bookmarks, only to start buying kinky items and browsing the same forums a few months later. It was only after many years of this that I decided to take the plunge and meet people.
“Speaking with people face-to-face, actually talking about and understanding their nonchalant attitudes to their kinks, allowed me to accept mine, and accept this part of myself. I struggled most with hiding parts of my life from close friends and family. I developed a real fear of what would happen if they found out.
“While I’ve not told them specific details, I’ve explained that I’m openly part of the community, that I’m happy and safe. Although many don’t truly understand what that means, I feel that it’s a far more healthy, comfortable ground than I had before. Being able to say, ‘I’m seeing some kink friends this weekend’ makes me feel so much better than coming up with lies or excuses.”
Will acknowledges that he feels lucky with how quickly his loved ones came to accept and understand this part of his life that he had previously hidden. “I opened up without any really adverse consequences or backlash, however, I think worries are entirely justified when faced with the decision to ‘come out’.
“How much do you divulge? And there’s the potential risk of intensifying those feelings of shame… I’ve learnt that I’m not quite as unique as I thought. Speaking with others who share my kinks, and seeing the growing awareness of the kink community, has been reassuring.”
Opening up conversations
Single mother Ruth was in her late 30s when she first discovered her kinky side. Under her writing persona, Ruby Kiddell, she went on to give erotic writers and bloggers a way to hone their craft with the launch of Eroticon.
“I found my kink through the process of writing and talking with other people, discovering which ideas turned me on, and which I wanted to play with. The whole process was about discovering who I was sexually – not something I’d spent any particular time thinking about when I was single in my 20s. So not only was it about discovering kink, it was about discovering who I was.
“My community has always been via social media, and then once I started organising Eroticon, it was through the people I met there. What I’ve actually built over the past 10 years is a community of friends who just happen to be kinky as well.
“The acceptance in the erotic reading and writing community of people’s kinks and desires was really freeing. There’s no judgement around what you personally do, just how hot your writing is, and it opens up a lot of conversations around sex, desire, and kink.
“When I started planning the first Eroticon, I made a conscious decision to be open about my writing and the conference; one of my goals was to increase the conversation around sex. If we can talk about sex and relationships more easily, we’ll have better sex and relationships, so it felt important that I was open about my work.
“Being open and living my self-acceptance has been incredibly important to me. In a small way, it allows me to push boundaries and start difficult conversations.”
Why do we feel ashamed of our sexual desires?
When it comes to speaking candidly about sex, could our lack of self-acceptance be creating barriers? Sex-positive relationship counseller, Alex Sanderson-Shortt, shares his thoughts.
“We live in a complicated world when it comes to sex. On one hand, we’re bombarded with sexualised images and ideas. On the other, our sexualities, bodies, and relationships are examined, commented on, and judged.
“Many clients feel shame about their sexual desires because there is still a strong message passed down through generations about sex: what it is, when we should have it, and who with.
“Often talking about sex is hard for couples in therapy, because they never talk about it at home – they lack the basic language needed. Words about sex can be seen as vulgar, childish, or too medical.
“Finding a common language is the first step to overcoming these issues. This helps to normalise talking about sex, giving permission to think and talk in new ways. Crucially, it helps them start to reconsider the ideas they have about sex, and hopefully move to a new ‘sex-positive’ way of thinking and acting.”
Working towards self-acceptance
Self-acceptance isn’t always easy. But as with the best parts of our lives, it’s the things we have to work on that are most rewarding.
Developing the language we need to speak about how we’re feeling, what we need, and who we are, may be the first step, but what comes next? How can we continue to move towards embracing every part of ourselves? Gender, sexuality and relationship diverse counsellor, Karen Pollock, shares her advice.
“One of the first things I do when working with clients who are struggling with their sexual desires or kinks is to unpick what they think is ‘normal’. We all absorb our messages about sex from a number of sources: culture, peer groups, family, friends, faith groups. It can be helpful to see where these messages are coming from, and why we might be giving them weight.
“The most important thing is to understand that there is no normal. More prevalent does not mean morally better; after all, it used to be a common belief that women should not enjoy sex.”
Self-acceptance isn’t always easy. But as with the best parts of our lives, it’s the things we have to work on that are most rewarding. Opening up isn’t a guarantee that our partners will share our desires, but it can bring us one step closer to creating healthier, happier relationships with others – and ourselves.
Working with a kink-aware therapist
BDSM-aware counsellors, also known as kink-aware therapists, can offer a unique kind of support. Creating a safe, empathic, and understanding space to talk more about your kinks, fetishes, desires, or alternative lifestyle. Working with a kink-aware therapist can also give you the space to talk about other issues, worries or concerns, without having to explain kink, BDSM, or fetish-related terms or context with someone who may be unfamiliar with them.

From young children to budding adults, anxiety can present in, and affect, young people in different ways as they grow up. So how can you spot and support it?
Anxiety is a natural part of many of our lives, and it doesn’t just affect adults. Though the triggers and stressors may be different, many children experience anxiety, with the NHS finding that across five to 19-year-olds, around one in 12 (8.1%) reported an emotional disorder such as anxiety or depression.
The point at which anxiety becomes a problem is when it begins to affect their everyday life, and gets in the way of them flourishing. But what does anxiety look like in children and young people of different ages? And how can we best support them at each stage? Here, with help from Hasret Tekin, a child and adolescent therapist, we highlight what to watch out for.
“This age group usually experiences anxiety in the form of separation anxiety,” Hasret explains. “It is in line with normal child development that children may experience separation anxiety from their primary caregiver from age six months to three years old.”
Hasret explains that you may notice your child is more clingy than usual, perhaps because they are worried that you will leave or disappear – at this age, they may not understand that you will come back. It might be that big life events such as starting nursery or school spark this reaction, and the anxiety might present as tantrums and protests, and unresolved it could lead to regression (such as wanting a dummy or a nappy), sleep problems, and phobias.
Five to eight years old
When a child reaches this age group, it’s likely that they have moved beyond separation anxiety, and instead the root of their anxiety is tied up in new developmental stages such as school problems, friendship issues, and self-esteem dips.
“They may feel worried about being likeable among friends, feeling shy in social scenarios, nervous, and clingy in new situations,” Hasret explains. “Some levels of performance anxiety and perfectionism are also common in this age group. When the anxiety becomes problematic, you may notice sleeping difficulties, bad dreams or nightmares, bed wetting, becoming irritable, tearful, unhappy, or withdrawn. Fears are also common in this age group as a manifestation of anxiety.”
Eight to 11 years old
Similarly to the previous age group, Hasret explains that the anxiety is likely to be tied up with their development stage, but on a larger scale. However, children in this age group may also have more of an awareness of external stress.
At this age, they may have more life events to refer to, such as conflict at home, parental separation, the death of a grandparent, illness, or sibling problems. With a greater understanding of these scenarios, they might develop anxiety about rejection, take on worries about the health of a loved one, pick up on money stress, or begin to compare their lives to those around them.
11 to 14 years old
“This age is pre-adolescent and adolescent years where the anxiety is usually about the transitions,” Hasret says. “There are many things children say goodbye to in this age group, such as the end of primary school. They have the anxiety of transition to secondary school, new friends, and puberty.
“Peer pressure and wanting to keep up with trends can also be triggering,” she continues. “Feeling part of a friendship circle, a need to fit in, and issues around their personal boundaries may create a clash for them. Similarly, the developmental need of building up their independence and autonomy may clash with parental expectations.”
Hasret says that the anxiety in this age group may present through isolation, a dip in joy, distraction, spending a lot of time on games and social media, people-pleasing, anger, and pushing boundaries.
15 years and over
At this point, young people may begin to feel a lot of pressure around their future – considering impending exams, career choices, and relationships.
Anxiety, worries, and fears may all blend into each other, resulting in confidence and self-esteem issues, anger, hate, and self-blame,” Hasret explains. “In some cases, significant anxiety may manifest itself through anger, sleeping issues, eating disorders, some obsessive thoughts and compulsive behaviours, lying, cheating, self-harm, unhealthy relationships, substance misuse, and suicidal thoughts.”
It can be really difficult to see a child struggling with their mental health, but with patience and awareness, you are in the best position to support them through difficult times.

A new report from the International Longevity Centre UK (ILC) has revealed LGBTQ+ men and women aged 50 and over have poorer self-rated health and are more likely to have other conditions impacting their health and wellbeing
Researchers are calling for action to improve health outcomes for the older members of the LGBTQ+ community through the enhancement of inclusivity in mainstream health care and provision, training of health and care staff, as well as the enhancement of data collection.
The new report from specialist think tank ICL, based on a project by researchers from the University College London (UCL), Cardiff University and supported by the Wellcome Trust has highlighted issues faced by older people within the LGBTQ+ community. Despite progress over recent years, these individuals continue to experience poorer health outcomes than cisgender and heterosexual people within the same age bracket.
Research reveals that a lifetime of prejudice and stigma may be leading to worse physical and mental health outcomes, less access to health and social care, along with greater levels of loneliness and isolation.
Based on data from 24 different surveys, this new analysis has revealed that lesbian, gay, and bisexual individuals are around 1.2 times more likely to experience poor self-rated health than heterosexuals – a strong predicator of future mortality. Older gay or bisexual men were also revealed to be more likely to live with a long-term, limiting illness, as well as to report having lower overall satisfaction in life.
The new report calles for the renewed focus to ensure that mainstream health and care provisions are consistently inclusive, offering environments where older LGBTQ+ people can feel safe and comfortable.
Hospitals currently do not routinely collect data about patients sexual orientation, which some fear risks healthcare professionals overlooking the needs of LGBTQ+ people as they grow older. Worries over training focuses of health and care professionals highlighting that all patients should be treated the same, rather than recognising and tailoring to their specific needs have also been raised.
Following the new report, ILC is calling for the development of a national standard or quality assurance framework around equality and diversity training for the needs of older LGBTQ+ people. ILC is also calling for better data collection on the health needs and outcomes of these individuals, to allow services to adapt to meet their needs.
Senior Research Fellow at ILC, Dr Brian Beach, shared his thoughts.
“It is disheartening that in 2019 we continue to see health inequalities between older LGBT people and their hetrosexual and cisgender peers.
“We need to see action not to build on the NHS’s pledge to end discrimination in heath and care across the country. We must also enhance our understanding of the needs of the older LGBT community. Health and care staff must be trained to ensure that they are not directly or indirectly discriminating against older LGBT people.” | <urn:uuid:08272f95-cf32-4a27-ac00-40ff1cd9ac2e> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://happiful.com/older-lgbtq-people-continue-to-experience-health-inequalities-new-report-reveals | 2024-04-16T04:22:00Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817043.36/warc/CC-MAIN-20240416031446-20240416061446-00767.warc.gz | en | 0.971673 | 574 |
We must defend a woman’s right to sex
The Roe v Wade decision shows us how vulnerable our sexual freedoms really are.
By Marie-Claire Chappet
“HAVE SEX LIKE A MAN.” Isn’t that what they used to say? Women: have sex like a man. It was the whispered undercurrent of the sexual liberation invoked by the release of the contraceptive pill in the 1960s and it was the rallying cry of the 1990s, with ‘ladette’ culture dominating our gender politics and Sex and the City dedicating its pilot episode (and initial gambit) to this seemingly novel concept.
But what exactly does ‘have sex like a man’ really mean? On the surface it is the ‘Samantha-isation’ of sex; indulging in casual trysts and one-night stands, putting pleasure above commitment. But what underscores this is far more significant. Because to have sex like a man ultimately means to have sex with impunity; without consequence, fear, judgment or shame. The overturn of Roe v Wade in America has sent shockwaves throughout the world for myriad reasons, but one of them is the overhaul of this view. Women, it says: have sex like a woman.
As far as SEX is concerned, BOYS will be BOYS, and GIRLS will be QUIET
Having sex like a woman is a complicated business, and it always has been. The physical consequences of sex have always fallen upon us, meaning the scales of sexual equity have never really been balanced. Our every sexual encounter is clouded by the fear of pregnancy. Access to safe and legal abortions and proper reproductive care were as close as we have ever come to reaching some form of equilibrium. What overturning Roe v Wade has done, and what it may well kickstart across the globe, is a destruction of that balance, a return to – physically at least – an extremely gendered approach to sex.
But there has always been a frustratingly gendered approach to how we perceive sex. Women are not expected, firstly, to even want sex the same way men do. Our pleasure, both societally, and frequently on an interpersonal level (hi there, orgasm gender gap) is frequently disregarded. A man’s sexual appetite is anticipated, practically encouraged; a woman’s is ignored, shielded, tutted about, almost feared. As far as sex is concerned, boys will be boys, and girls will be quiet. Having sex like a woman means pretending you don’t really want it at all.
Because, of course, when a woman dares to step outside of these binaries, she is met with a singular and particularly vicious sort of judgement. We still live, and perhaps always have, in a world of players and whores, studs and sluts. What we praise in one, we condemn in the other. The concept of female purity – of ‘good’ girls and bad ones, of the ones you can bring home to mother and the ones you can’t – feels archaic, and yet this still has a chokehold on our culture. How often is sexual language deployed at women when they are disproportionately trolled online? A 2020 US research paper found the words ‘slut’ and ‘whore’ were used 419,000 times in misogynistic tweets over the span of one week – and slut-shaming is prolific among young adults, including the horrific use of revenge porn. Having sex like a woman means that, actually, it might be best not to have sex at all, for our society still struggles to make room for female sexuality. In fact, it penalises it.
The negation of a woman’s SEXUAL AGENCY is one of the PILLARS which props up the ‘pro’ argument
These traditional and harmful views about a woman’s ‘virtue’ and how she should and should not have sex are fundamental to the anti-abortion rhetoric. Whether consciously declared or not, it is inescapable to me that the negation of a woman’s sexual agency is one of the pillars which props up the ‘pro-life’ argument. The overturn of Roe v Wade reinforces the idea that a woman’s sexuality is not, in fact, for her at all. Fertility is the aim, not pleasure. Anything not in the service of creating life is frivolous, shameful, wasteful. Our entire right to sexual pleasure was wiped out by that judgement. For how can we have ‘sex like a man’ now – when the threat of forced birth and trauma, the destruction of our bodies and our mental health, the evisceration of our dreams, hangs over every sexual encounter? If you ask the internet this, the army of trolls will simply reply, as I have seen proof of: then don’t have so much sex, you slut.
It could be the overturn of Roe which reminds us – even on this side of the pond – just how circumstantial and vulnerable our sexual freedoms are, and how knotted they remain with antiquated views of female propriety. For while we fight for bodily autonomy, let us not forget that this includes the right to a healthy, consensual sex life. We must defend a woman’s right to sex. We must redefine what it really means to have sex like a woman.

Sierra Club of Hawaiʻi Endorses David Ige for a Second Term as Governor
News release from Sierra Club of Hawai’i
HONOLULU, HAWAIʻI (June 24, 2018) — Sierra Club of Hawaiʻi members, families, and friends celebrated today on the lawn of the Capitol as they announced their endorsement of Governor David Ige for a second term.
“Powerful interests opposed David Ige in all of his efforts – interests that value short term profit over Hawai'i's long term security. But Governor Ige never once backed down,” said Colin Yost. “For his dedication to the public interest and for his determination to do what's right for Hawai'i's future, David Ige deserves our support and our votes.” Colin Yost is the elected chair of the Executive Committee for the Sierra Club of Hawaiʻi.
Jonathan Scheuer, chair of the Sierra Club’s volunteer political committee, called Governor Ige the climate governor as he listed the Administration’s many accomplishments to combat climate change.
“Governor David Ige is the exactly the kind of leader Hawaii needs right now,” Scheuer added. “We are painfully aware that on the national stage, we have leadership that values style over substance, reaction over deliberation, opinion over fact, and and aggression over compassion. Governor Ige provides the necessary counter balance to these efforts that tear at the fabric of our national and local society. He embodies our local value that one can disagree without being disagreeable.”
Governor Ige welcomed the endorsement noting that the Sierra Club has demonstrated its commitment to solving problems for the benefit of Hawaiʻi’s people and its environment.
In highlighting Governor Ige’s accomplishments, Sierra Club volunteers noted that:
• He blocked an aggressive mainland effort to replace our dirty oil burning power plants with only slightly less dirty gas burning power plants.
• He demonstrated national leadership by confirming Hawai'i's commitment to the Paris Climate Agreement
• He appointed highly competent commissioners to the Hawaii Public Utility Commission and is working with them on the urgent task of implementing Hawai'i's 100% renewable energy mandate
• He supported and signed a law making Hawai'i the first state in the nation to commit to being carbon neutral
The Sierra Club of Hawaiʻi’s works on behalf 20,000 members and supporters throughout the Hawaiian Islands to help people explore, enjoy, and protect the Hawaiian Islands.

SIERRA CLUB ENDORSES DAVID IGE FOR SECOND TERM AS GOVERNOR
News Release from Ige Campaign June 24, 2018
(Honolulu, HI) – The Sierra Club of Hawai‘i has endorsed Governor David Ige for a second term. The announcement was made on Sunday, June 24 on the lawn of the Hawai‘i State Capitol. The Sierra Club, is dedicated to protecting public health and the environment, combating climate change, and connecting people to the outdoors. In the U.S., the Sierra Club is the oldest, largest, and most influential grassroots environmental organization with 3 million members and supporters.
Governor Ige attended the announcement and said, “It is truly an honor to receive an endorsement from the Sierra Club of Hawai‘i. We should all aspire to their 20,000 members’ hard work statewide to take care of our earth. The Sierra Club of Hawai‘i has been a leader for 50 years in caring for our ʻāina. From restoring our rainforests to enhancing our water to minimizing CO2 emissions and preparing for climate change, I am committed to working with the Sierra Club to protect and preserve our environment for future generations,” said Governor David Ige.
The Sierra Club recognized Governor Ige for his commitment to protecting the environment, including his leadership on global climate issues by joining the U.S. Climate Alliance, adopting the Paris Climate Accord as state law, and actively championing Hawaiʻi’s goal of 100% renewable electricity by 2045. He has protected nearly 40,000 acres of watershed forests on four major Hawaiian islands, and preserved Turtle Bay Mauka from future development, which protects Hawaiian monk seal habitat and ensures public access to the shoreline.
As sponsor of the 2016 IUCN World Conservation Congress, Governor Ige brought together thousands of environmental leaders and decision-makers, government, indigenous peoples, business and academia from around the world to share best practices for protecting and improving the future of our shared planet. For Hawaiʻi’s part, Governor Ige established the Sustainable Hawai’i Initiative, which sets specific and measurable goals through sound resource management to ensure Hawaiʻi’s natural environment is healthy for generations to come.

Substance use disorder continues to carry a stigma in the United States, but the government has done what it can to try and limit the exposure patients face by protecting their records from unauthorized eyes. While the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) has helped to control how much medical information a caretaker can divulge, the government believed another step was needed for further protection.
42 CFR Part 2, typically just called Part 2, is a law protecting the information of people dealing with substance use disorder to help them avoid scrutiny. Unfortunately, the law is complex and can be difficult for even SUD-related healthcare business owners to understand. This FAQ guide will answer some of the most common questions regarding Part 2 to help you better understand what the law entails and why you need the right IT solution to protect your company and patients.
What Are Some of the Most Frequent Questions Regarding Part 2?
The laws surrounding Part 2 are complex, and it is impossible to explore every fringe case or situation. However, you should get a basic idea of the requirements for Part 2 and how they affect your business.
There are two primary instances when a healthcare provider may disclose information about persons dealing with a substance use disorder, both with and without consent. If the patient consents to disclosure, then a healthcare professional can provide information to the appropriate parties. Additionally, the law outlines instances where a healthcare professional can reveal information without consent, such as in a medical emergency.
Healthcare providers who provide services for patients covered under Part 2 must do everything in their power to prevent records from unauthorized view. While this can seem daunting for a healthcare business of any size, it doesn’t need to be. Hiring an IT firm that can protect you from any issues with your system, like accidental information leaks or being compromised in a cyberattack, can be extremely valuable.
There are two primary aspects that determine when Part 2 applies to a patient or their caretaker. First and foremost, it’s important to examine the verbiage within the law – the creators specify that it is both “federally assisted” and a “program.”
“Federally assisted” concerns any SUD program that receives help from the federal government to provide treatment. This applies to many SUD programs, whether they have direct control and management by a federal office or receive money from the federal government.
“Programs” are anything that provides diagnosis, treatment, or referral for people with SUD. Programs can include individuals or medical facilities so long as they provide the aforementioned services.
Part 2 provides more protections for patients than HIPAA, and healthcare businesses and their associated providers will need to know these differences and how to protect themselves. With HIPAA, once someone legally discloses medical information, the protection ends.
Part 2’s protections, however, extend to the person or organization who learns of the information through legal means. Organizations must maintain the security regarding Part 2 records.
A study by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration demonstrated that many people worry about maintaining confidentiality regarding their substance use disorder treatment.
Part 2 seeks to alleviate these fears and keep information regarding SUD history and treatment separate away from the general public’s knowledge. As such, medical providers have both a legal and ethical burden to maintain confidentiality when required by Part 2. Having well-maintained and organized digital records can prevent any leaks from happening and help keep your patients’ information secure and your business from dealing with legal fallout.
Patients also face the risk of stigma within the medical field if other entities acquire privileged Part 2 information. Some patients fear the stigma will lead to them not getting help or losing their insurance coverage.
The form should state the purpose of the disclosure and how much information the healthcare provider will reveal to the entities named in the form. There must be a legitimate reason for the disclosure and the patient must approve of any information provided as well as the entities you provide the information.
Once all the details are included, you must date the document and have the patient provide a signature. The form should also include a date when the consent will expire. As a healthcare provider, you will want to impress upon a patient the fact that they can revoke consent at any time.
A recent amendment to the law does allow a patient to consent to disclose information to entities with whom they do not have a providing relationship. For instance, a patient may want to provide documents to the Social Security Administration. The patient can allow a healthcare provider to provide this information without having to name the specific entity.
Additionally, the patient will not be able to provide consent orally, and you must have the proper information in writing for legal consent.
For healthcare providers in non-Health Information Exchange (HIE) environments, it is important to modify the consent forms on the patient’s records. A healthcare provider with an HIE environment should communicate with the health information organization and provide notes on the patients’ records.
Unlike HIPAA, Part 2 does not allow patients to opt out of the consent process. If a healthcare provider wants to share information with another relevant agency or party, they will have to seek consent each time. A patient cannot give a blanket waiver of their rights to privacy under Part 2.
Any information or records the Armed Forces acquire while a patient is subject to the Uniform Code of Military Justice must remain in compliance with Part 2. This does not apply to any information the Armed Forces share between themselves. If a veteran is seeking SUD treatment through the Department of Veterans Affairs, Part 2 is not applicable. However, Part 2 will apply when healthcare businesses exchange records with a patient getting help through the Military Health System and TRICARE.
However, Part 2 provides additional protection for a patient. If law enforcement approaches a healthcare provider with a general subpoena regarding a patient covered under Part 2 requirements, they cannot hand over the requested documents in most cases. For law enforcement to legally acquire the documents, they will have to acquire a special subpoena to access the files.
- Medical emergencies for the patient
- State law mandates reporting of information regarding potential child neglect or abuse to law enforcement or other authorities
- Research requests
- Law enforcement presents a valid court order to view the privileged information
- When a patient makes a reasonable threat to commit a crime
- When a lawful entity conducts an audit of medical records
- When a qualified service organization needs the information to provide services to the healthcare program
Your employees must ensure that they follow the proper procedures when presenting information to other parties without the patient’s consent. To do so, it is essential that you maintain your digital filing system to avoid any accidental information leaks or hacking attempts.

Health insurance is a vital component of modern healthcare systems, providing individuals and families with financial protection against the high costs of medical care. It serves as a safety net, ensuring that people have access to necessary healthcare services, medications, and treatments without experiencing significant financial hardship. In this article, we will explore the concept of health insurance, its importance, different types of plans, key terms, challenges, and the impact it has on individuals and society as a whole.
Understanding Health Insurance
A. Definition and Purpose Health insurance is a contract between an individual or a group and an insurance company, wherein the insurer agrees to provide coverage for medical expenses in exchange for regular premium payments. The primary purpose of health insurance is to protect individuals from the potentially high costs of healthcare, enabling them to access necessary medical services and treatments without incurring significant financial burden.
B. Key Terms To better understand health insurance, it is essential to be familiar with key terms commonly used in the industry. These include premiums (monthly or annual payments to maintain coverage), deductibles (out-of-pocket amounts individuals must pay before insurance coverage kicks in), copayments (fixed amounts paid at the time of receiving specific services), coinsurance (a percentage of the cost of services paid by the insured individual), and out-of-pocket maximums (the maximum amount individuals are required to pay in a given year).
Types of Health Insurance Plans
A. Employer-Sponsored Plans Employer-sponsored health insurance is provided by employers to their employees as part of their employee benefits package. These plans often involve cost-sharing between employers and employees, with premiums deducted from employees’ wages. Employer-sponsored plans can vary in terms of coverage, costs, and networks of healthcare providers.
B. Individual and Family Plans Individual and family health insurance plans are purchased by individuals or families directly from insurance companies or through state or federal health insurance marketplaces. These plans offer coverage to individuals and their dependents, providing flexibility in terms of plan selection and customization based on specific needs and preferences.
C. Government-Sponsored Plans Government-sponsored health insurance programs aim to provide coverage to specific populations, particularly those who may not have access to employer-sponsored or individual plans. Examples include Medicare (for individuals aged 65 and older or with certain disabilities), Medicaid (for low-income individuals and families), and the Children’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP) for eligible children.
Importance and Benefits of Health Insurance
A. Access to Healthcare Services Health insurance plays a critical role in ensuring that individuals have access to necessary healthcare services, including doctor visits, hospitalizations, preventive care, medications, and specialized treatments. It reduces financial barriers and enables timely access to medical care, improving health outcomes and overall well-being.
B. Financial Protection One of the primary benefits of health insurance is financial protection. By sharing the costs of medical care between individuals and insurers, health insurance mitigates the risk of facing overwhelming medical expenses. It provides individuals with peace of mind, knowing that they are protected against unforeseen healthcare costs.
C. Preventive Care and Wellness Programs Many health insurance plans include coverage for preventive care services, such as vaccinations, screenings, and annual check-ups. Health insurance also promotes wellness programs and initiatives aimed at preventing or managing chronic diseases, promoting healthy lifestyles, and improving overall population health.
Challenges and Future of Health Insurance
A. Rising Costs One of the significant challenges in health insurance is the escalating cost of healthcare services, prescription medications, and insurance premiums. Balancing affordable premiums with comprehensive coverage poses a constant challenge for insurance companies, employers, and individuals alike.
B. Access and Disparities Despite the importance of health insurance, access to affordable coverage remains a concern for many individuals, particularly those with low incomes or in underserved communities. Health insurance disparities based on socioeconomic status, race, ethnicity, and geographical location continue to exist and require attention and policy interventions.
C. Evolution and Innovation The future of health insurance will likely involve ongoing evolution and innovation. Advancements in technology, telemedicine, data analytics, and personalized medicine may shape the landscape of health insurance, allowing for more tailored coverage, improved cost control, and enhanced patient experiences.
Health insurance plays a crucial role in ensuring accessible and affordable healthcare for individuals and families. By providing financial protection, facilitating access to medical services, and promoting preventive care, health insurance contributes to improved health outcomes and overall well-being. Addressing challenges related to rising costs, disparities in access, and embracing innovation will be crucial in shaping the future of health insurance, ultimately aiming to provide comprehensive coverage and equitable healthcare for all. | <urn:uuid:c3227ef2-0fea-409a-b6f5-a5428bb5e191> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://healthcarelive.net/health-insurance-ensuring-accessible-and-affordable-healthcare-for-all/ | 2024-04-16T04:41:00Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817043.36/warc/CC-MAIN-20240416031446-20240416061446-00767.warc.gz | en | 0.942352 | 945 |
When it comes to maintaining healthy habits, going on vacation tends to trip people up. With some forethought, planning, and preparation, it can be easier than you might think. Fundamentally, I believe it comes down to your mindset and intentions. Sometimes people want to throw caution (and their wellness) to the wind, live it up for a week, and come back with the goal to “get back on track.” I lived this way for years, and it eventually stopped working for me. To swing from the ends of a spectrum, caught in a cycle mentality so to speak, felt more harmful to both my emotional and physical health than if I were to walk a middle way. That isn’t to say I don’t indulge on vacation (I do!), but there is more balance to my indulgences than in years past. As a result, I have built up a level of self-trust that gives me confidence to take care of myself during vacation while still having fun. Here are eight healthy habits I brought with me on my latest trip to the beach.
Nutrition: packing food, home-cooked meals, and seeking out healthy options.
I have a natural foods company centered around nutritious breakfast and snack options, so these items are almost always already spoken for. I packed enough yogurt, fruit, Granola Clusters, Oat Bars, and pre-baked Empower Bars for the week.
When it came to lunch, I brought Wrawps, hummus, avocado and chicken.
When your destination is only a car ride away, you are at more of an advantage to bring more than you would be able to if you were to fly. Same goes for staying in a house versus a hotel room (see this post for our trip to Miami). We also went grocery shopping a few times while we were there to restock on perishable items. I am also someone who is totally fine with eating the same thing for breakfast and lunch every day, even when away. Some people need more variety when on vacation, and that is OK too. We also have a toddler, so being knee-deep in schedules and routine, there is more predictability to our day. Besides, dinner is when I like to spice things up. Most nights, we did cook, because taking a 14-month old to a crowded restaurant is no picnic. Given that we were at the beach, we made a lot of seafood options with vegetables and salad. It was just what we wanted.
We did eat out a few times, and I firmly believe you can find something nutritious on (almost) every menu. On our way out of town, we stopped at a local juice bar, The Outer Bean Cafe, for smoothies and acai bowls. That is one of my main tips for finding healthy eating establishments while traveling: Google “juice bar/acai bowl/healthy salads near me” and see what comes up!
I give myself permission to eat whatever I want.
I will preface this blurb by saying 90% of the time I crave healthy food. Whether cooking at home or eating out, I most often choose starter salads and entrees consisting of fresh seafood, vegetables, and other high quality carbs.
My splurges are more in the dessert, wine, and craft cocktail categories.
But there are definitely those instances when I want the fried calamari or delicious bites from the bread basket with butter. I will order the pizza and burger if I am craving those foods. The power lies in the permission. I always give myself permission to eat whatever I want, knowing that the majority of the time, what I want serves me nutritionally. And because that anxiety isn’t there, I don’t go hog wild on the hushpuppies because I might not let myself eat one again. The trust is always there. Speaking of hushpuppies, one night my husband suggested we order them along with some fried mahi bites as an appetizer, and it sounded like a great idea. I ate a couple and was satisfied, and moved happily to my snow crab legs and salad. It was exactly what I wanted, no guilt or food shame included.
I also enjoyed the most delicious artichoke and crab dip from Dockside ‘N Duck Seafood Market, and am determined to recreate it…stay tuned!
I move every day.
It can be difficult to carve out time to exercise while on vacation, especially if you have young kids, but I try to make a point to move every day for at least 20 minutes. Most mornings, we went on an hour long beach walk, and not only do I think walking in the sand is quite the workout, but it was a really nice change of pace. I felt more present and peaceful in my body, and it allowed us to connect as a family.
I do always travel with my yoga mat and resistance bands however, which I will admit, sometimes go unused. The first day was a bit rainy, so I did a short mat workout while Mason crawled around (and on top of) me. It did the trick!
I turn on my “off switch”
I have talked about my relationship with alcohol openly before (and much more so in my online course Counting Colors), and sometimes I still feel like I come away from vacation having drank a little more than I intended. One day during one of our beach walks, I had a bit of an epiphany. I have always had this long-held belief that I have been “that girl” that over drinks – the one without the “off switch.” I simply decided to change this thought, which in turn, changed my beliefs about myself. Instead, I told myself I do have an off switch, and you know what? It made me more conscious, allowing me to practice more moderation. I left the beach feeling more balanced than I have on vacations in the past.
I take my nutrient dense algae tablets
I recently interviewed the founder of ENERGYbits for The Healthified Podcast, an amazing company that offers spirulina and chlorella tablets. Being in the packaged natural foods space myself, I am very skeptical of a lot of products out there, but after testing these out, I am hooked! I take the spirulina tablets in the morning, and the chlorella tablets before bed. The former supports energy, with chlorella having more of a calming effect. The chlorella tablets are also supposed to be a natural hangover cure, and I can confidently say they have helped! The placebo effect might be at play, but I don’t care – they make me feel great!
I still prioritize sleep
For the past ten years, I have pretty much lived by the adage that nothing good happens after 11pm. Throw a toddler into the mix, and I am in bed by 9:30pm almost every night, even on vacation. He wakes up between 6-7am like clockwork these days, so it’s important to me to still get sufficient sleep.
I maintain my morning routine.
When I am home, I try to wake up an hour before anyone else in order to meditate, journal and read. While I never carved out the full hour on this trip, I did manage to get up with enough time to make the coffee, have a cup, meditate for 1-2 minutes (still a win) and do some journaling.
There were a couple of mornings when this was not the case, but that meant Mason’s first bottle happened in our bed as we watched the sunrise, which was so special!
I use every day as an opportunity to practice presence.
Getting out of your normal routine provides a great opportunity to practice presence. Without the associative triggers of to-do lists, housework, and errands, I felt myself more easily dropping into the present moment, noticing the different sights, sounds, smells. I put away my phone and took time to play with Mason on the beach, truly engage and listen in conversations with Alex, and be grateful for the experience, knowing that time is moving so fast. Vacation and travel in general are not without their stressors (or chores), but I am working on training my brain to perceive the positive. It takes work and emotional responsibility, but it is worth it. | <urn:uuid:95b3c193-1c99-4a5a-9367-ecaf3bb6f43b> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://healthified.com/healthy-habits-beach-vacation/ | 2024-04-16T05:24:28Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817043.36/warc/CC-MAIN-20240416031446-20240416061446-00767.warc.gz | en | 0.975788 | 1,730 |

Jessica Marie Blosil is the oldest daughter of Marie Osmond, an American actress, television host, singer, and member of the show business family, the Osmonds. Jessica is a police officer and counselor born on December 17, 1987, making her 36 years old.
Marie Osmond is a celebrity who has successfully thrust her family into the limelight, including Jessica Marie Blosil. The singer adopted her daughter with her second ex-husband, Brian Blosil, 19 months after she was born. Despite being born and raised by famous parents, she is striving to become a force to be reckoned with in her career. Meanwhile, all there is to explore about the singer’s daughter has been made available in this article.
When was Marie Osmond’s Daughter, Jessica Marie Blosil?
Jessica Marie Blosil was born in the United States on December 17, 1987. The American citizen who was born under the Saggitarius birth sign is of Caucasian descent. She was raised in the United States under the care of her adoptive mother, Marie Osmond, an American actress, television host, singer, and member of the show business family, the Osmonds. Her adoptive father, Brian Blosil, an American music producer, actor, and composer, also greatly influenced her upbringing.
Jessica was raised in a firm Mormon doctrine in the United States alongside her seven siblings. She was raised in a loving and supportive home, which greatly helped her achieve.
Though Jessica Marie Blosil is already famed for her relationship with Marie, she still maintains a very low profile. In this vein, she has not revealed details of her elementary and high school academic history. There is no credible information on whether she attended college or her course of study. Meanwhile, because Marie Osmond is out to give her children the best, Jessica might have graduated from an eminent university.
Is Jessica Marie Blosil Adopted?
Yes! Jessica Marie Blosil was adopted. She was adopted by Jessica Osmond and her second ex-husband, Brian Blosil, when she was just 19 months old. Details of her biological parents, including their names, nationality, ethnicity, and where they are at the moment, are scarce. It is not known if her parents are married or divorced, as well as if they welcomed other children.
There is no information on whether Jessica tried to reach out to her biological parents or not, and as such, what their relationship with her is like has not been made known. Because she maintains a low profile, she might have connected with them and maintained a good relationship with them. However, until she comes out to confirm this statement, our fingers remain crossed.
She has since taken Marie Osmond and Brian Blosil to be her family and considers them her blood. The couple raised her in love, giving her the best that a biological family could give. They have been quite supportive of her and have equally defended her whenever the need arises.
Marie Osmond’s Daughter is a Lesbian
Meanwhile, Jessica Marie Blosil is lesbian and first declared it to her mother when she was 17 years old. Though the singer felt hurt and cried, she still stood as a strong supporting force for her daughter, who faced lots of backlash for her sexual orientation. Their religion and the fact that the singer supported her daughter when she came out open as lesbian resulted in a heated argument among the public and her fans.
Though the Mormon Church accepts the LGBTQ+ community, it comes under the condition of celibacy. The church does not consider same-sex marriage as an abandonment of belief; however, it is still considered a sin. Despite this, Marie Osmond has gone ahead to show her support for the LGBTQ+ community and her daughter.
Is Jessica Marie Blosil Married?
Jessica Marie Blosil is happily married to her heartthrob, Sara. There are no records of when the couple met or when they started dating.

She revealed that she was happy to fly down to grace their occasion. The singer also stated that she could not love them more and went on to welcome Sara into their family. Marie made it known that she was happy that her daughter finally had someone in her life. They have not welcomed any children at the moment, but with time, the couple might add another grandchild to Marie’s family.
Meanwhile, much about Jessica Marie Blosil’s wife is not known. Though their wedding was made public, they have maintained a quiet lifestyle and married life, which has made details about her wife unknown. Consequent to this, there are no details of her age, including the month, date, or year that she was born. Information about her family background has also been kept away from the public.
Though nothing is known about her academics, it is believed that she acquired a good level of education. What she does for a living now is unknown, but it is assumed that she is earning a decent living. She lives with her loving spouse in Provo, Utah, and has not recorded any scandals so far.

Chill Fishing Report
July is here and what does that mean? July is the time I check my favorite mid lake structure spots and in the past few weeks it has produced greatly for us. Checking the mid lake structure, we have found everything, and the unique thing is everything seems to be swimming together so you don’t know what will be biting. In one trip we caught five different species of fish while spot locked and surprisingly perch wasn’t one of them!
Inside weed lines we have seen a lot of quality fish but in the morning, it seems the fish haven’t had their coffee yet and were favoring a slower presentation. Slip bobbers have been producing a good percentage of our fish tipping them with usually a leech but this past weekend I couldn’t buy a bite and switched to a night crawler with immediate results. The crawler presentation is something new to me and I can honestly say I’ve never used it before, but with the results we had this past week it will be used as often as a leach.
Livescope is a great tool, but it is still a tool and it can be difficult for people to understand where the fish are spatially to try and get in the strike zone. I like slip bobbers because it keeps a lure in the strike zone longer and allows me to help inexperienced anglers catch fish and ultimately who doesn’t get excited when a bobber goes under? I also like slip bobbers because when I set up on a school of fish, I like to throw the slip bobber to where the school is allowing the other anglers a landmark of where to target. The combination of throwing a slip bobber out and casting jigs has increased our fish counts for the day.
We have been having best luck with a 5-inch long Kalin soft plastic with a 1/8 oz VMC jig. This combination is giving us enough weight to make long casts away from the boat but light enough to not instantly sink down into the weeds. The VMC jig has an oversized hook that allows me to get the hook further into the 5-inch plastic allowing for better hook sets. Best results have been a twitching/popping presentation as we lift the rod up with a long pause allowing the lure to fall. Most of our bites have been on the fall so using braided line we are watching our line for a twitch indicating a bite as it is dropping. When shallower we were feeling the bite before we had our bails closed from our initial cast.
If the inside weed line isn’t producing check the outside weed lines and points. Since we were deeper fish weren’t skittish of our boat and on the clear days the fish were using our boat for shade. A vertical jigging presentation produced just as many fish as casting away from the boat. Covering water and finding active fish is key because some schools regardless of what we were doing wouldn’t bite but marking them and coming back a few hours later did produce fish in the boat.
Before we know it, we will be starting to get ready for back to school, leaves will be changing, and temperatures will be dropping. If you are interested in booking a trip contact Cody today to book a trip that will make memories that will last a lifetime.

Ask A Trooper
Sgt. Jesse Grabow
Question: A friend recently told me that it’s illegal to honk your car horn in Minnesota (he showed me an internet article). I find this hard to believe.
So many friends and family members drive by our house, giving their horn a little honk and waving; is this illegal?
What if you’re behind someone at a stoplight who hasn’t noticed the light turned green—is it illegal to tap your horn to alert them? And what about those car alarms that start honking if they sense an intruder?
Please explain. Thank you.
Answer: Minnesota state law says, “Every motor vehicle when operated upon a highway must be equipped with a horn in good working order and capable of emitting sound audible under normal conditions from a distance of not less than 200 feet. However, the horn or other warning device must not emit an unreasonably loud or harsh sound or a whistle. The driver of a motor vehicle shall, when reasonably necessary to insure safe operation, give audible warning with the horn, but shall not otherwise use the horn when upon a highway.”
As stated, a motor vehicle’s horn is to be used when to “insure safe operation.” I believe it is worded as this to help prevent and reduce the unnecessary honking to help avoid annoyance and harassment. By using the horn for potential safety issues it can help keep people alert and safe.
As you mentioned being behind someone at a stoplight and they don’t notice the light turning green. Does sounding the horn help with safety?
Another thing to be aware of from my experience, I’ve seen a number of “road rage” incidents start from the honking of horn.
Car alarms are legal. A person may want to check with their local laws and ordinances to see if there are any additional requirements and responsibilities.

STAMFORD, Connecticut-Joined by Congressman Jim Himes and IRS Acting Director Norma Brudwick the message was “take your money, you earned it.”
Several changes have been made to EITC this year due to the American Reinvestment and Recovery Act (ARRA), including taxpayers now being able to claim a third qualifying child. ARRA also increases the beginning point of the phase-out range for the credit for all married couples filing a joint return, regardless of the number of children. These changes apply to 2009 and 2010 tax returns.
“The Earned Income Tax Credit and Childcare Tax Credit are significant financial resources for working families particularly in these challenging economic times,” said Aubuchon. “An estimated 20 to 25 percent more people may qualify for EITC but may not be aware of it. Many people who do qualify use Refund Anticipation Loan services, a predatory lending practice that charges a high interest rate to gain immediate access to money that rightfully belongs to the taxpayer. Our objective is to let every family know there is a better way to go.”
“The Earned Income Tax Credit is one of the most effective anti-poverty tools we have, but many people who are eligible miss out on over $5,000 because they don’t complete a tax return form,” said Congressman Himes. “I encourage working families in the area to make use of VITA's programs—we don't want to leave money on the table that could put food on the table.”
Residents with incomes below $49,000 are given priority for free income tax preparation by trained volunteers at the city’s VITA centers. Additionally filers will be connected with asset building opportunities such as Individual Development Accounts (IDAs) to improve their standard of living. The Tax-Aide sites which serve people of all ages, gives special attention to seniors 60 and older.
Jonathan Hoch, Chief Community Officer for Domus said, “Domus is proud to be able to offer its Lockwood Avenue location as a VITA site this year. We want all eligible families to receive the credit to which they are entitled, but to do that, they must file a return.”
VITA centers are located at CTE, Yerwood Center, Domus, and Mujer Virtuosa Ministries. Tax-Aide sites include the Stamford Senior Center, CTE, and the Ferguson Library’s Harry Bennett and Weed Memorial branches. | <urn:uuid:46f9eff4-26e2-444f-8eab-805187da9104> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://himes.house.gov/press-releases?ID=41BF2A5C-9E88-4DC5-9A01-77226CC5164D | 2024-04-16T03:33:39Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817043.36/warc/CC-MAIN-20240416031446-20240416061446-00767.warc.gz | en | 0.965085 | 527 |
H.I.M. (Healthy Image Men) is the perfect abbreviation for this unique men’s hair, beard, and skin products source. Originating in South Florida as a high-end men’s spa in 2004, H.I.M. specialized in haircuts, hot towel shaves, skin care treatments, and associated products. Since the South Florida market has a mixed demographic with varying skin textures and nuances, the company thrived by providing services designed to accommodate each of them.
Company founder Darnell Henderson, a licensed Skin Care Therapist has remained true to his empowering vision from day one. He sums it up thusly:
“I am convinced that it is possible to provide reasonably priced men’s grooming products that enhance rather than detract from good health.”
From the beginning, Mr. Henderson has been driven to excel beyond the typical bottom line motivation. Like many other existing high-end spas, he began by marketing and selling traditional well-known men’s skincare and shave brands. However, he soon learned that not all of his customers were 100% satisfied with the results. Since nothing less was acceptable, he began developing proprietary products that were custom formulated without unnecessary and unhealthful additives.
The change in response was immediate. The new products were far more effective at clearing up acne, reducing shaving irritation, eliminating skin discoloration, and more. In fact, Mr. Henderson in 2007 entered into a partnership with Macy’s that blossomed into HIM-istry’s evolution as a national brand. | <urn:uuid:21898d55-983f-4c4d-a48f-f20564b6b964> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://himistry.com/blogs/news/get-to-know-our-brand-the-story-behind-himistry | 2024-04-16T03:22:42Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817043.36/warc/CC-MAIN-20240416031446-20240416061446-00767.warc.gz | en | 0.974366 | 327 |

Owning a rental property is a big investment that needs protection, including optional landlord contents cover to safeguard against loss or damage. It’s important to safeguard your property against unexpected events like damage, theft, or liability issues. This is where landlord insurance comes in – it’s like a shield that helps you cover the costs if something goes wrong with your rental property.
Landlord insurance is a special type of insurance designed for property owners who rent out their homes or apartments. It provides financial protection for landlords by covering things like property damage, loss of rental income, and legal expenses, with the addition of contents insurance for comprehensive safety. With landlord insurance, you can have peace of mind knowing that your investment is secure and you’re prepared for any unforeseen circumstances that may arise.
What is Landlord Insurance?
Insurance is like a safety net for unexpected events that can cause financial loss. It’s a tool that helps manage risks by transferring the cost of potential damages to an insurance company. When you buy an insurance policy, you pay a premium – a regular amount of money – in exchange for coverage. If something bad happens, like a fire or theft, the insurance company will help cover the costs based on the terms of your policy.
What Does Landlord Insurance Building Cover?
Landlord insurance is different from standard homeowner’s insurance because it’s tailored specifically for rental properties. While homeowner’s insurance typically covers the structure and contents of a home where the owner lives, landlord insurance focuses on protecting rental properties and the unique risks associated with renting them out. Landlord insurance provides coverage for property damage, loss of rental income, and liability issues that may arise from renting out your home building.
There are several types of coverage offered by landlord insurance to protect landlords from various risks, including optional covers for landlord contents and loss of rent. Property damage coverage helps repair or replace the building and its contents if they are damaged by covered perils like fire, vandalism, or natural disasters. Liability coverage protects landlords from legal expenses if someone is injured on their property and sues for damages, and contents insurance can be added to cover loss or damage to personal property. Loss of rent coverage compensates landlords for lost rental income if their property becomes uninhabitable due to a covered event like a fire or flood.
Why Do Landlords Need Home Insurance?
Landlords face various risks when renting out properties, such as fire damage, vandalism, and potential lawsuits from tenants. These risks can lead to significant financial losses if not properly addressed. Landlord insurance plays a crucial role in mitigating these risks by providing financial protection and peace of mind to property owners. In the event of a fire damaging the rental property or vandalism causing destruction, landlord insurance can help cover the costs of repairs or replacements, minimising the financial impact on the landlord.
By having landlord insurance in place, landlords can protect their finances from unforeseen events that may occur on their rental properties. In addition to property damage coverage, landlord insurance also includes liability protection, which is essential in case a tenant or visitor is injured on the property and decides to file a lawsuit. This coverage can help cover legal expenses and potential settlements, safeguarding landlords from significant financial liabilities. With landlord insurance, landlords can focus on managing their properties without worrying about the financial repercussions of unexpected incidents.
In Sydney, Australia, there are legal requirements for landlord insurance that landlords need to be aware of. While landlord insurance is not mandatory by law in Australia, it is highly recommended for property owners to protect their investments and assets. Some mortgage lenders may also require landlords to have landlord insurance as part of their loan agreement. Additionally, having adequate insurance coverage can help landlords comply with tenancy laws and regulations in Sydney, ensuring they meet their obligations as property owners and protect both their interests and those of their tenants.
Steps to Get Building Insurance for Your Rental Property
When looking to get building and contents insurance for your rental property, the first step is to evaluate your needs. Assessing the value of your property and its contents is crucial in determining the appropriate level of coverage. Consider potential risks based on the location and type of property you own. Understanding the different types of coverage available, such as dwelling coverage, liability limits, and contents insurance, will help you tailor your insurance policy to adequately protect your investment.
After evaluating your needs, the next step is to shop around and compare quotes from various insurance providers. Contact multiple companies or brokers to get quotes that are tailored to your specific property and requirements. It’s important to compare not only the premiums but also the coverage details offered by each provider. By taking the time to shop around and compare quotes, you can ensure that you are getting the best value for your insurance coverage.
Once you have received quotes from different insurance providers, read and understand the policy before making a decision. Pay close attention to the covered perils, exclusions, and deductibles outlined in the policy. Make sure you understand what events are covered by the insurance and any situations that may not be covered. If you have any questions or uncertainties about the policy terms, don’t hesitate to ask the insurance provider for clarification before finalising the policy.
Before finalising your building insurance policy for your rental property, consider reviewing it with a legal professional or insurance expert to ensure that it meets your specific needs and provides adequate protection.

Below is a collection of videos and resources that capture examples of varied discussions that Supports Coordinators and teams may have with individuals and families during times of transition. Potential experiences of individuals living independently, living with family, and living in a group home are captured. We hope that Supports Coordinators and teams view these videos and resources to inform their approach in leading transition discussions with individuals and families. These videos and resources can also be used by trainers who are focusing on the topic of transition.
Additional resources highlighted in the videos as well as facilitation guides for trainers who use the videos as part of capacity-building efforts are included.
These videos and resources depict the experience of Stephanie. Stephanie works for a local school district and is preparing to return to work at the start of the school year. Her employer has contacted her about several changes to her routine and job duties due to COVID-19 (she will have to wear a mask during her entire shift and will have to practice social distancing and screening). Stephanie is talking to her Direct Support Professional on Zoom about the changes and how Stephanie feels about returning to work. Stephanie, the DSP, her Supports Coordinator, and sister check-in to talk about this transition and Stephanie’s concerns using the Self Advocate Roadmap and Guide for Returning to Activities in the Community.
These videos and resources depict the experience of Shawna. Shawna has been living in her group home for three years. Prior to the COVID-19 pandemic, a large part of her socialization included going back to her parent’s home for a weekend a month and visiting with her family and friends in her hometown. Due to all of the COVID-19 restrictions in place, she has not been able to make this trip for several months. Her staff report a significant change in both her social skills as well as her mental health. Using Charting the Lifecourse tools and transition guides, Shawna’s team feels it is important to assist her to develop a transition plan to engage with her family and friends while ensuring the health and safety of her, her family, and friends as well as the staff and individuals in her group home.
These videos and resources depict the experience of Carl. Carl lives with his mom and dad and is expressing how lonely and bored he is given the COVID-19 restrictions.

The question we get asked probably most often is how do you develop an incentive plan or bonus plan or compensation plan that motivates this staff member the sales REP or marketer.
But also is thoughtful of the Agency and your budget your revenue and your profit.
Well, we have something that we like to call the-cost-justify-the-COMP plan, and what that fancy word means is that you have to take into consideration what your revenue looks like.
What your direct costs indirect costs look like and you’re a real profit.
So that’s why, when people ask me this on forum, or if I’m at a conference speaking on stage will say talk to me about a COMP plan how much or how many patients should my market or deliver to me how much revenue should my marketer bring to the table for our in-home care.
And what I share with them is it depends, and you know I know that’s a crappy answer from the stage you don’t want to hear that or even hear you don’t want to hear that what you want us number… and what I can tell you is it’s a formula.
You got to take into consideration what is your cost per admission per patient or client, you have to take into consideration what the base COMP is for the marketer.
And then, what is your profit per patient or per client and how much of that are you willing to share with them.
That is the formula that you need to look at and once we do that because everyone’s direct expenses are different for someone like me who lives in Fairhope Alabama.
My office space maybe less than someone who lives in La Jolla California. So my cost per admission or per client started care it’s going to be less than someone in La Jolla.
In fact, my base camp for my REP is going to be less here than it is in La Jolla.
So, consequently, you have to look at the formula in order to best identify how many patients you need how many clients, you need, for example…
And that can be expressed in revenue, it could be expressed in ours for our in-home care friends and it’s often expressed in admissions or start of cares.
So Consequently, I would ask you to take a look at that.
Most REPS think in terms of admissions or clients who start care.
That’s where their brain goes. So if you have a number which you ultimately will you’ll have a number that you are willing to give your reward your marketer per patient.
And that is what I’d recommend because they think in terms of per patient, not revenue growth.
You will, as a business owner or as a manager or leader, but the REP themselves (will not).
So turn those numbers turn those revenue numbers into actual patient admissions or client admissions and then just every 90 days do a check.
Make sure that your average patient profit continues to be the same as what it was 90 days ago, because we know all clients or patients are not created equal revenue-wise.
Just do your checks, so that you can make sure that your COMP plan is in alignment.
We do this every day with our sales management folks.
Every quarter we sit down and do a quarterly game plan that’s also when we look at revenue and make sure that our COMP plan is in alignment with our board goals or ownership goals, so that the Agency can then achieve its goals.
So I hope that helps when you think about COMP plans, just think about the formula.
The formula is going to be different, the formula is going to be the same, but the numbers are going to be different for each agency.
So take your revenue, think about profit per patient and put that into a calculation for a base salary usually about 60% is base salary and 40% is that variable COMP that is rewarded based on growth, for example in your agency.
So we look forward to helping you. If you want more information about our sales management program we help sales.
REPS every day achieve and overachieve their budgets just go ahead and email [email protected] and he’ll set you up for a discovery call where you can learn more about how we help agencies, just like yours manage their sales REPS and grow their business.
Thanks for joining me today I can’t wait to see you on the next question!

Water Heater Repair and Maintenance
For the most part, water heaters are pretty reliable and do not require much regular maintenance or repair.
Your water heater plumbing consists of cold water in and hot water out. You get your hot water from a heating source (gas burner for a gas water heater or a heating element from an electric water heater).
If you're not getting normal hot water, don't despair; unless you're seeing water coming out of your hot water tank (and not the pressure relief valve), your water heater repair is probably an easy and affordable one that doesn't require a plumber.
Problems with getting hot water may not be in the water heater plumbing itself. Issues can come about with pilot lights going out (gas) or too much sediment having collected at the bottom of your water tank. Other causes can be due to poor or no insulation being installed when plumbing a hot water heater.
Whether you're installing a new tank and need help with water heater plumbing, need to repair a water heater, or just want maintenance tips, you'll find a variety of how-tos and tips here.
- Repair Water Heater Leaking
This is always a big concern for homeowners. Determining just where the leak is coming from is important - learn about the types problems that cause leaks and then the correct repairs you need to do to stop the problem. - Tankless Hot Water Review
Going tankless isn't just a trend, it's a new way of life. If you want the benefits of faster hot water and fewer water heater repairs, then this may be the way to go. Learn about the different types available (there are a few ways to heat the water), and then check out common features and prices before taking the plunge. | <urn:uuid:34c7aa43-27d8-4333-a24f-405fb8838bdd> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://homerepairgeek.com/water-heater-repair | 2024-04-16T04:16:24Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817043.36/warc/CC-MAIN-20240416031446-20240416061446-00767.warc.gz | en | 0.942133 | 359 |

The commando unit that killed Haitian President Jovenel Moïse on the night from Tuesday to Wednesday consisted of 26 Colombians and two Haitian Americans, Police Chief Charles Leon said Thursday. Three alleged perpetrators have been killed, while eight suspects are still on the run.
Authorities followed the suspected killers to a house in a suburb of the capital Port-au-Prince on Wednesday. After a firefight, 17 suspects were arrested, 15 Colombians and two Americans. Police Chief Leon showed Colombian passports, rifles, machetes, walkie-talkies and materials, including bolt cutters and hammers, at a press conference on Thursday.
“Foreigners came to our country to kill the president,” Charles said. “It was 26 Colombians, identified by their passports, and two Haitian Americans.”
Colombian Defense Minister Diego Molano said in a statement that preliminary information indicated that the Colombians involved are retired members of the Colombian military. He said Bogota would cooperate with the investigation. The US State Department also said it was cooperating with the investigation but could not confirm whether US citizens had been arrested.
The situation in the city is tense. On Thursday morning, an angry mob gathered around the house where the suspects had been holed up, setting cars parked on the street on fire.
The tension in the street is partly caused by uncertainty about who is in power now. According to Helen La Lime, the UN envoy to Haiti, Prime Minister Claude Joseph is leading the Caribbean country until elections are held. The latter will happen on September 26, as had already been planned for the murder of Moise, Elections Minister Mathias Pierre said on Thursday. Pierre called the passage of the elections “a requirement for a more stable country, a more stable political system”. | <urn:uuid:391c6c39-dfc5-4977-91e2-b42a18bac6fb> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://hopenews.co.uk/26-colombians-and-2-americans-behind-haitis-assassination/ | 2024-04-16T05:25:20Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817043.36/warc/CC-MAIN-20240416031446-20240416061446-00767.warc.gz | en | 0.973543 | 368 |

- Cybersecurity Threats: The digital landscape is rife with cyber threats, including phishing attacks, ransomware, and malware. Microsoft 365 is a prime target for attackers seeking to exploit vulnerabilities. Ensuring the security of your environment is crucial to defend against these evolving threats.
- Compliance and Legal Obligations: Many industries and regions have strict compliance requirements regarding data protection, such as GDPR, HIPAA, or industry-specific regulations. Failing to secure your Microsoft 365 environment could lead to non-compliance and legal consequences.
- Business Continuity: Microsoft 365 is the backbone of daily business operations for many organizations. Any disruption, whether due to a cyberattack or accidental data loss, can lead to significant downtime, lost revenue, and reduced productivity.
- Reputation and Trust: A security breach not only impacts your organization’s finances but can also impact customer trust and confidence. Maintaining a secure Microsoft 365 environment helps defend your reputation and demonstrates a commitment to protecting the data and privacy of your stakeholders.
Our team of experienced security experts here at HostedBizz have devised a comprehensive list of actionable items to improve the security posture of your Microsoft 365 environments. Here are a few action items to properly protect your Microsoft 365 environment:
- Enable Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA):
- Implement MFA to enhance security by requiring a secondary form of identification, reducing the risk of unauthorized access to sensitive data.
- Configure Strong Password and Password Expiration Policies:
- Set robust password requirements and strict expiration policies to foil password spraying attacks, ensuring that user credentials remain secure.
- Separate Global Admin Accounts from End User Accounts:
- Isolate administrative accounts from end-user accounts to limit unauthorized access even in the event of a breach, enhancing your overall security posture.
In addition to these measures, it’s imperative to continually monitor your environment, educate your employees on security best practices, and keep your Microsoft 365 applications and systems up to date with the latest security patches and updates. Regular security assessments and staying informed about emerging threats are also crucial components of a comprehensive security strategy for Microsoft 365.

I’m talking to you, Avenue clothing stores. You’re outta here.
I spent years on the big side of a size 32 (meaning I could squeeze into them but I’d be covered in red welts by the time I waddled my way home from work). When you’re on the plus side of plus size, your choice in clothing stores is limited. Lane Bryant only carries up to size 26/28. And Catherine’s? Well…I probably could have found some things that fit me, but their styles are not for me. I prefer to wear clothes that are somewhat understated and conservative…and Catherine’s seems to want me to look like a giant tropical flower bedecked in sequins and glitter. Not my thing. So I was stuck with the Avenue.
Going by baseball rules, they should have been out after three strikes but since my choices were limited I had to stick with them until I figured my shit out. Now I have…and I’ve dropped five sizes. Last weekend, I dared to step into another clothing store and was treated to something I haven’t seen in a very long time: customer service.
But let’s go back to the Avenue for a minute. Let’s talk about the three biggest strikes they have against them in my book.
Strike 1: impersonal staff.
I can’t tell you how many times I’ve walked into one of these stores and heard someone lethargically yell “Welcome to the Avenue!” from the back with about as much enthusiasm as I have going to the gyno. (Oh God….do I really have to do this? Can’t they just xray my vag and tell me I’m okay? GROSS!)
I try not to be a rude bitch on a daily basis, so I always yell back “Thanks!” to the disembodied voice in the back of the store. No one actually steps forward to say hello or ask if I need help.
There’s usually only one person on the floor at a time. If there are two, they’re usually back there together…talking about how they’re going to put the merchandise on the floor or about the customer who stayed in the store until 9:02 pm last night. I once stood next to two employees, one who was working in the store where I was shopping and the other who was visiting from another store, as they had a conversation about an irate customer. My arms were loaded with clothing I wanted to try on. Both of them ignored me completely while they went on and on about this irate customer. I’m too big to be invisible, folks. I was standing right there within four feet of them…obviously waiting to be helped…and, nope, nothing. I finally interrupted them and asked for a fitting room.
Strike 2: Lame-ass failures
Tired of sewing my workout pants back together for the umpteenth time, I went over to the Avenue to buy a new pair. I walked around looking for some but couldn’t find any. The closest thing they had was a pair of bright blue velour lounging pants. Velour. As I neared the back of the store, an employee approached and asked if she could help me find something. (It has been known to happen, I’ve just learned not to rely on it).
“Yes, thanks,” I said. “I’m looking for some workout pants. You know…like the nylon or polyester blend ones we had to wear in gym class in high school?”
“Ohhhhh, no,” laments the Avenue chick. “We don’t have anything like that, I’m sorry.”
“Why not?” I asked incredulously.
“Well, we only carry workout stuff in January,” she offers back. “You know…because of resolutions.”
This was one of those times for me when I could feel myself wanting to open up and vent and my filter was frantically trying to get me to stop. Think. Don’t say something rude, HMP!!! Don’t do it!!!
I shook my head, rolled my eyes, and replied “Oh riiiiight. Because the fatties only work out after New Years, I’d forgotten. How silly of me…it’s June. We’ve all failed by now, right?”
Poor Avenue chick. She didn’t know what to say. To her credit, she tried to be helpful by pointing out the velour lounging pants.
“We do have these…”
Now I’m pissed at the ridiculousness of the situation.
“Well, those are made of velour. If I workout in those the thigh friction alone would have the inside legs bald in no time. The gym floor would look like someone murdered the Cookie Monster.”
“Well, I guess you’re right. I’ll have to quit working out and wait for next January. Thanks for your help.”
I skulked off to Catherine’s, thinking I couldn’t get more pissed off. I was wrong. They didn’t have any workout gear either. But they had chocolate for sale by the register.
Strike 3: Bad fashion advice
I walked into the Avenue last week, eager to see if I could fit into a size 24. An employee was straightening a table near the entrance. And, by the way, this reminds me…why are some customers such dillholes? Do they really not realize that someone just set up that beautiful display of tshirts? I’ll never understand people who unfold something to look at it and then toss it on the table. Rude.
Sorry…I digress. I said “I’m looking for dress pants.”
The girl nodded and, quite seriously, pointed out a rack of black dress pants. Then she offered “You’re lucky. This is all we have.”
“Ohhh…yeah,” I answered. “Because they’re black and it’s summertime, right?”
She shook her head negatively. “No.”
I guess I wasn’t going to get an explanation and, as much as I knew I would regret it, I had to ask why. So I did.
“Because people just aren’t wearing pants anymore.”
You can’t say shit like that to me, okay? My mind goes from innocent to dirty in 3 seconds.
“My God, why not?”
“Everyone’s wearing shorts and capris now. Or dresses.”
Oh, I see. Everyone is. Then I looked down. “You’re wearing pants…”
Maybe she thought I wouldn’t notice?
Just as a bonus, let me add this little tidbit: I went to buy new bras at the Avenue but I couldn’t see the size on the tag anymore. I asked the girl to measure me. She’s worked there a while and I always recognize her.
“Oh! You’re at least an H cup and we don’t carry anything that big.”
Um…no. I explained to the girl that I’d purchased the bra I was wearing less than a year before. It’s a DDD.
“No, you’re at least an H. Where did you go to buy it? They measured you wrong.”
Without missing a beat, I replied that I’d purchased the bra at…the Avenue.
“Oh, which store?”
“Well, the person who measured you must have done it wrong. I’m sorry.”
“You measured me.”
You’re outta here!
There have been countless other failures that I won’t list out entirely. I think I’ve made my point. Out of habit, I’ve just kept going back there…even though I’ve dropped from a tight size 32 to a 22 now. Until last week when I walked into a Torrid store.
As soon as I walked in, I was greeted by Rachel. I know her name is Rachel because she (shocker) told me her name. With a smile on her face. Right before she asked me if she could help me with anything.
Yes, perhaps you could help me up off the floor because I’m not used to being greeted with such courtesy.
Rachel asked my name and explained the sales they were having. My favorite was the yellow tag sale. Buy something with a yellow tag and get another yellow tag item for $1. Then there was the red tag sale. And the jeans for $19. And the rest of the store was on sale as well. Buy one item, get 50% off another.
Most of their stuff is casual, which is okay…but I’m always running short on clothes for work, which have to be professional. I asked Rachel, who was a whirlwind as she moved around the floor greeting and helping customers, but always seemed to have time for each of us. She pointed out their dress slacks, which looked absolutely perfect for work. I was relieved.
Rachel also pointed out that they had suit jackets to match those dress slacks. $54 for the jacket. I think it was slightly more for the pants, but with the “buy one, get 1/2 off the next” sale, I was quite pleased.
She set up a fitting room for me. As I moved around the floor, other employees would occasionally check on me. They all knew my name. They all used my name. I have to say…it was quite refreshing.
I was on a budget, so I couldn’t spend much. I ended up walking out of there with a $43 denim jacket that would have been $60 at the Avenue. Because it was a yellow tag item, I got a khaki military style jacket for $1.
As it so happens, there’s a Lane Bryant next door to the Torrid in my area. I had to go in. I haven’t been in a Lane Bryant in years and I wanted to see what they had going on.
Marble floors. Some pretty clothes. Not a soul in sight. I walked over to a suit jacket that caught my eye. $99. For a suit jacket. Buh-bye. I left…and never saw one employee anywhere in the store.
Now I need to go shopping again. The bras that the H-cup chick at the Avenue sold me are too small. Guess where I’m headed?
(And no, I haven’t been financially compensated for this post in any way…they’re just that awesome.) | <urn:uuid:770c99b7-498f-4869-8b0d-cdaec23f004f> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://hotmessprincess.com/category/general/page/2/ | 2024-04-16T04:48:54Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817043.36/warc/CC-MAIN-20240416031446-20240416061446-00767.warc.gz | en | 0.981165 | 2,359 |
A lottery is a game of chance in which numbers or symbols are drawn for the purpose of awarding prizes. These prizes can be cash, goods or services. Some examples are kindergarten admission at a reputable school, a spot in a subsidized housing block or a vaccine for a rapidly spreading disease. In the United States, state governments run lotteries to raise money for a variety of purposes. Many people play lotteries for fun, while others believe they are a path to prosperity and a better life. Regardless of the reason for playing, lottery revenues contribute billions to the economy each year. While the benefits of lottery are numerous, it is important to remember that winning is not a sure thing.
A common feature of all lotteries is a mechanism for pooling and recording stakes placed as part of the entry process. This can be accomplished either by recording the amounts paid for tickets or by separating the ticket price into fractions, with each fraction paying a small percentage of the overall prize fund. A typical system includes a chain of retailers who sell the tickets to consumers, and a central agency that records purchases and transfers funds. The majority of the money collected by a lottery is distributed to the winners. This amount includes the jackpot, as well as smaller prizes. Retailers also receive commissions for selling the tickets and bonuses for selling jackpot-winning entries. These commissions make up about 5% of the total revenue.
Another major element of a lottery is the use of a random number generator to select winning numbers. This can be done electronically, by hand, or through a combination of both methods. The random number generator is often a computer, and the results are compiled and published by an independent group. This group is sometimes called a “third party” or an “independent auditor.” The random number generator is typically certified by a government body or by an international organization such as the IEEE.
Although the objective fiscal conditions of a state government have little or no bearing on whether it adopts a lottery, its popularity has risen and fallen with public attitudes towards gambling. Those who promote the lottery argue that it is a source of painless revenue and a form of voluntary taxation. In reality, however, it is a form of pay-to-play politics: voters want states to spend more, and politicians are looking for ways to extract taxes from their constituents without appearing to do so.
Moreover, the lottery promotes gambling addiction in vulnerable individuals, and it can lead to unrealistic expectations and magical thinking that can be harmful to financial health. It is also important to consider the benefits that lottery revenues provide society, as a whole. It is important to keep in mind that the odds of winning are very low and to avoid spending more than you can afford to lose. In addition to these benefits, lottery proceeds are used for various purposes in each country. | <urn:uuid:69e055b9-8c80-4035-886f-d06a2e66d496> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://howells.org/what-is-a-lottery-5/ | 2024-04-16T05:11:54Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817043.36/warc/CC-MAIN-20240416031446-20240416061446-00767.warc.gz | en | 0.968517 | 574 |

Predictive Maintenance of Cash Dispenser Using a Cognitive Prioritization Model
In this technical paper, we address the issue of predicting cash dispenser (addressed as ‘Device’ henceforth) failure by harnessing the power of humungous data from service history, logs, metrics, transactions, and plausible environmental factors. This study helps increase device availability, enhanced customer experience, manage risk & compliance and revenue growth. It also helps reduce maintenance cost, travel cost, labour cost, downtime, repair duration and increase meantime between failures (MTBF) of individual components. This study uses a cognitive prioritization model which entails the following at its core; a) Machine Learning engineered features with highest influence on machine failure, b) Observation Windows, Transition Windows and Prediction Windows to accommodate various business processes and service planning delivery windows, and c) A forward-looking evaluation of emerging patterns to determine failure prediction score that is prioritized by business impact, for a predefined time window in the future. The model not only predicts failure score for the devices to be serviced, but it also reduces the service miss impact for the prediction windows.

Allergies and Allergic Rhinitis
Seasonal Allergies and Hay Fever
Allergic rhinitis, also known as hay fever, is typically viewed as a seasonal problem. Fall and Spring are beautiful times of the year, but they can bring misery for millions of people who suffer from allergies that can cause hay fever.
Allergic rhinitis affects approximately 10 to 30% of all adults, and around 40% of children. That’s a huge sector of the population suffering from nasal allergies. The main triggers of allergic rhinitis pollen, animal dander and dust. Scientists believe hay fever has a genetic tendency, which means this tendency can be passed on to the offspring of allergic parents.
What is Allergic Rhinitis and What are It’s Symptoms?
Allergic rhinitis, or hay fever, is caused when the body’s immune system encounters particles (pollen in this case) it considers harmful. These particles are called “allergens” because they cause allergic reactions in the body.
The immune system attacks these foreign particles (allergens), causing the symptoms we’re all familiar with: sneezing; watery and itchy eyes; runny nose, post nasal drip, sinus congestion, and itchy nose, ears and throat. Hay fever can be quite debilitating, even sometimes getting worse over the years, and then suddenly completely disappearing after a person reaches their elder years.
Is Climate Change Making Pollen Allergies Worse?
Climate change has been under heavy debate the past few years. Many scientists believe human beings are responsible for the changes in climate temperatures, weather, and rising sea levels. Global warming has been studied and some interesting findings have been uncovered in regards to pollen and pollen allergies.
Scientists, from Genoa University in Italy, performed a six-year study of pollen counts (from 1981 to 2007). Over this time, the scientists noted that the pollen load increased with gradually increasing temperatures and extended growing seasons. The study also found the percentage of patients with pollen reactions also increased during this time period. The study was not able to discern if the longer pollen seasons were responsible for more people developing pollen allergies.
This and similar studies have shown some interesting links between increasing temperatures and longer growing seasons on hay fever allergies, and suggests that climate change is responsible for an increasing number of people developing pollen allergies due to the increased load of pollen in the air.
How is Allergic Rhinitis Diagnosed?
Your doctor will give you an examination and ask about the symptoms you are experiencing. Be sure to tell your doctor all your symptoms, even if they seem insignificant or unrelated to your condition. It is important that your doctor knows everything so he’s able to make a proper diagnosis.
After your exam, your doctor may want to go ahead with allergy testing. Allergy tests are used to determine exactly what you are allergic to.
Standard allergy tests include skin tests which can take the form of a scratch test, or another version of the skin test is where a small amount of allergen is injected under the skin. In both types of test, the patient is checked for reactions to the tested allergens.
The tests can be uncomfortable, but the reactions are the most annoying part of the tests. Reactions to the allergens will cause redness and swelling at the testing site on the patient.
The doctor might also order blood tests to check more specifically for certain allergies.
Once the doctor has found what you’re allergic to, he/she will have a better idea of how to treat your allergies.

How is Hay Fever Treated?
So, how do you go about getting relief for your seasonal allergy symptoms? The doctor might start you on an over-the-counter (OTC) antihistamine medication. There are several very good products available over-the-counter now that used to be available by prescription only just a couple of years ago. If these OTC medications don’t work for you, your doctor will go ahead and give you a more powerful antihistamine that’s only available by prescription.
Antihistamines work by blocking a substance called “histamine” that your body produces as a response to the allergens your immune system is trying to fight. Histamine causes reactions such as those described above: runny nose, itchy eyes, etc. Antihistamine medications block the histamine, and thereby relieve the patient’s hay fever symptoms.
Other Allergy Medications
Sometimes it's necessary for you to take other medications in addition to antihistamines. These might include nasal steroid sprays, and decongestants in tablet and spray form. There are also other options to help patients to feel relief from nasal stuffiness.
One of the best ways to clear your nose is by using a nettie pot, or another similar system. The idea behind these systems is to clean the nose and sinuses using a warm salt water solution to clear out allergens and other irritants. This method offers relief for the pain of congested sinuses, along with cleaning the nasal passages.
Is there a cure for allergic rhinitis? Tips to avoid allergy triggers
Unfortunately, no, there is no cure for allergic rhinitis. The best way to stay healthy is to avoid the allergens you are sensitive to. This is hard to do when the allergens are in the very air you breathe, but here are some tips to help you develop a plan for avoiding as much pollen as possible:
- Pay attention to the pollen counts for your area every day. On high pollen days, stay indoors as much as possible.
- Keep doors and windows shut, and consider the use of an air purifier to keep the air in your home or office clean.
- Be sure to watch the weather. Rainy days are usually more pollen-free as the rain washes all the allergens out of the air. Hot, windy days pollen is blown on the air, making it that much harder for those who suffer from hay fever to avoid the allergens they’re sensitive to.
- Change clothes and take a shower when you get home. Pollen is very “sticky” and will stay on you, even when you go to bed, making allergy symptoms worse at night. Washing the pollen off your clothes and body will help you get a good night’s sleep.
- Use hypo-allergenic bed coverings to help keep dust and pollen out of your bedding.
- You might consider wearing a mask that is made especially to help hay fever sufferers avoid pollen exposure.

What is the prognosis for allergic rhinitis?
The prognosis is good if you take preventive measures such as exposure avoidance, take any medications prescribed by your doctor, and by following the tips above. By following these measures you will feel better and will be able to enjoy being outdoors in any season.

Los Angeles streetwear label Born X Raised has flipped through its archives to revive and remix some of its most celebrated styles for today.
The brand, founded by the late Chris “Spanto” Printup in 2013, has built a cult following over the last 11 years, thanks to its dedicated community involvement, impactful social initiatives and authentic portrayals of the City of Angels through fashion. This latest collection celebrates the imprint’s influential identity in SoCal style, with an eclectic mix of sweatshirts, long-sleeves, T-shirts and accessories — all done up with the brand’s vintage Old English typography.
Among the standouts, the Horny Pills Tee plants the BXR motif next to an illustration of a Rhino, nodding to “gas station male enhancement pills,” and the Buff Bunny Tee pictures a playboy-like rabbit smoking and lifting weights. Meanwhile, several hoodies and tees host “No Weapon Formed Against Me Shall Prosper” lettering, and headwear includes the rocker beanie and the knit scully.
As always, the line’s campaign shines a light on its founding California city, showcasing the collection’s pieces on ATVs and dirt bikes by the historic LA River, in a series of photographs shot by Atiba Jefferson.
Born X Raised’s new archive collection will become available to shop on Friday, February 23, at 12 p.m. PT, via the brand’s webstore. Take a closer look at the range in the gallery above. | <urn:uuid:a9ac1ee6-e41d-46d6-bd21-ac2cce8ce8d3> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://hypebeast.com/2024/2/born-x-raised-archive-collection-release-info | 2024-04-16T04:44:41Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817043.36/warc/CC-MAIN-20240416031446-20240416061446-00767.warc.gz | en | 0.926237 | 327 |

In the first part of this series, we covered developing a positive leadership role with your horse. It cannot be said enough how important this role is to build your horse's confidence. The article also explains techniques for haltering an abused horse that doesn't want to be haltered. This part of the series, we will discuss teaching a horse to let you touch them everywhere. This article is geared toward abused horses but will work just as good for all horses.
Building confidence in your horse will take baby steps. For each step forward, there might be two steps back. It is vital to remember that abused horses have long memories of their abuse. Try to understand their fear and be patient.
We have to remember that horses are masters at reading body language. They know when we are happy, sad, or mad. If you are having a bad day, it is advisable not to ask the horse for any new steps. Instead, work on what they already let you do, or have a "counseling session" and tell your horse about why you are having a bad day.
Touching the Neck
Horses are curious and cautious by nature. We can use this to our advantage. Turn the horse loose in the round pen or small corral. Hang out with the horse, walking quietly around at a distance. You want to put very little physical or mental pressure on him at this point.
The video below shows a wild mustang's first touch, and is an exceptional example of how to do this. In the video, the horse has a halter put on by the wild horse association, while confined. Other than that, the horse has not been touched by human hands.
The lady lets the horse know she is there. But she leaves it up to the horse to come up to her. She raises her hand and enables the horse to move away, while she also moves away, relieving the pressure. This step is repeated until the horse is willing to stay longer. This can take several training sessions. Do not rush the process. Eventually, the lady can remove the old halter and replace it with a new one and starts teaching the horse to lead.
Using a Towel on the Face and Neck
Our next step is to introduce the horse to a rag. Any clean cloth will work for this. However, one that has your scent on it is best. Horses can not see very well directly in front of them. So, they explore new things with their lips and sense of smell. Hold up the rag and let the horse give it a proper inspection. Then gently start rubbing the horse's face with it. If they move away, treat the situation the same way recommended for touching the neck.
Desensitizing to a Lunge Whip
In this exercise, it is essential to remember that the lunge whip is NOT to be used as a whip! The string on the whip should be limp and never move fast or make a cracking sound. Think of it as a wet noddle. Introduce it slowly, especially if you do not know what abuse the horse has suffered.
Think of the whip as an extension of your arm to help keep you out of harm's way. This step is necessary so you can touch the rear legs without being hurt. It will also help desensitize your horse to things like limbs rubbing on them, ropes touching the legs, etc.
We need to desensitize the horse to the lunge whip before we move on to the next step. The video below explains this process very clearly. The goal is to get the horse to allow you to touch his whole body, including those dangerous legs, with the string or tip of the whip. It is not recommended to move past this stage until the horse can stand calm and relaxed while accepting the touch of the whip and string.
Attach the Towel to the Lunge Whip
Attach a rag to the end of the whip. A large hand towel will work well for this. Remember, if you can use one with your smell. Sleeping with the towel on your pillow is a good way to make it smell like you. Now use the whip as an extension of your arm and rub the horse all over with the rag. This should be done until the horse accepts the touch of the cloth all over his body.
Touch with Hands
After desensitizing the horse to the whip and rag, it is time to move on to touching with your hands. Remember, horses can kick forward, sideways, and backward with their hind legs. They can also strike forwards with the front legs. Always be aware of what those legs are doing, especially the hind legs. Here is our article on 5 Ways to Avoid Getting Kicked by a Horse, a great read for all who interact with horses.
Rub your horse with long repetitive strokes. They also like to be scratched in a particular area. At this point, leave the ears alone. Their ears are very sensitive and a major survival tool.Unfortunately, abusers have been known to twist or bite ears to get a horse to do their bidding. Here is our article on The Best Places to Pet a Horse and Areas to Avoid which you may find useful.
Next is to introduce brushes, curry combs, and other grooming tools. Always let the horse inspect the tool. Start grooming in the safety zone of the neck and shoulder. Then work your way back toward the hindquarters.
Water from the Hose
Don't forget to introduce water from the hose as a grooming tool. Again, let the horse examine what is coming out of the hose. Water should be applied to the bottom of the legs first and work your way up. Let the water gently flow, do not spray it. Once the horse has no fear of water, then you can start using a spray that is not too harsh. An excellent way to judge this is if you would like that strong of a spray or not.
Legs (danger zones that can't be avoided)
It is understandable to be fearful of those powerful legs. But as horse owners, we have to take care of all our horse's needs. Hoof care is a major priority. The farrier cannot do his job correctly if the horse won't pick up its feet. During the desensitizing to the whip and following exercises, be sure to pay extra attention to the legs.
It is a shame that some humans find it necessary to hurt and abuse horses. Most horses can learn to trust humans again with patience and understanding. Teaching trust and building your horse's confidence can be like a dance, one step forward, and two steps back. Take baby steps and stay calm.

To prevent COVID-19, the CDC recommends cleaning and disinfecting daily. However, many disinfecting products can exacerbate asthma. Learn how to choose cleaning products that are better for your asthma and prevent the spread of COVID-19.
Some chemicals may be more likely to cause asthma attacks. Aerosol sprays, disinfecting wipes, bleach or sodium hypochlorite, and Quaternary Ammonium Compounds may exacerbate asthma.
SAFER DISINFECTANT CHEMICALS
Some chemicals in disinfectants may be less likely to exacerbate asthma. These include hydrogen peroxide, lactic acid, citric acid, ethyl alcohol, and isopropyl alcohol.
The EPA has developed a list of disinfectants that destroy the COVID-19 virus. It shows information about the disinfectants, like the active chemicals and how long to leave disinfectants on surfaces. You can find this list at here.
USING LIST N
Cleaning products are listed by EPA number, with the primary disinfecting chemical and product name next. Look for products that use safer disinfectants for asthma. Be sure to follow the guidelines for time.
TIPS FOR LIST N
You may already have a disinfectant that works for you and does not trigger asthma symptoms. You can check if your disinfectant can be used against asthma by using the List N Search Bar to look for your disinfectant.
Look for products with GS-52 or UL 2759 seals. These indicate products that are safer for people and the environment.
Finally, know your triggers and use products that work for you!

Vietnam’s economic landscape is characterized by dynamic growth, fueled by a diverse range of industries that drive its development. As one of the fastest-growing economies in Southeast Asia, Vietnam offers a compelling opportunity for businesses and investors alike. Understanding what are the main industries in Vietnam that power the economy is essential for navigating its business environment effectively. This deep dive into Vietnam’s major sectors aims to provide a comprehensive overview, shedding light on the key drivers, challenges, and opportunities within each industry. By gaining insights into Vietnam’s main industries, stakeholders can make informed decisions and capitalize on the country’s economic potential for sustainable growth and success.
Vietnam Industry Overview
Vietnam’s industrial sector has been a key driver of economic growth and development in recent years. The country has undergone significant industrialization and modernization, transitioning from an agrarian-based economy to one that is increasingly driven by manufacturing and industrial activities.
Industrial Structure and Composition:
– Manufacturing: Vietnam’s manufacturing sector is diverse and includes industries such as textiles and garments, electronics, machinery, footwear, and food processing. The country has become a major manufacturing hub, particularly for electronics and textiles, attracting significant foreign investment.
– Energy: Vietnam’s energy sector is also a significant component of its industrial landscape. The country relies heavily on coal for electricity generation, but there is growing interest and investment in renewable energy sources such as hydroelectric, solar, and wind power.
– Construction: Vietnam has experienced rapid urbanization and infrastructure development, driving growth in the construction industry. Major projects include transportation infrastructure, residential and commercial developments, and industrial parks.
– Vietnam vs. Other Emerging Economies: Vietnam is often compared to other emerging economies in the region, such as Thailand, Indonesia, and Malaysia. While these countries share some similarities in terms of industrialization and economic development, Vietnam has distinct advantages such as a large and relatively young workforce, competitive labor costs, and a strategic geographic location that has made it an attractive destination for foreign investment.
– Regional Integration: Vietnam is also part of various regional economic agreements, including the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) and the Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership (CPTPP). These agreements facilitate trade and investment flows with other countries in the region and beyond, contributing to Vietnam’s industrial growth.
Challenges and Opportunities:
Despite its rapid industrialization, Vietnam faces challenges such as inadequate infrastructure, bureaucratic inefficiencies, and environmental concerns. Addressing these challenges will be crucial for sustaining industrial growth and attracting continued investment.
Opportunities abound in sectors such as high-tech manufacturing, renewable energy, and infrastructure development. Vietnam’s young and increasingly skilled workforce, along with its favorable business environment and strategic location, position it well for continued industrial expansion.
What Are The Main Industries in Vietnam?
Vietnam’s main industries encompass a diverse range of sectors, with some of the key ones including the garment/fashion industry, food industry, electronics manufacturing, and agriculture. Let’s delve into each of these sectors:
Vietnam is one of the world’s largest exporters of textiles and garments, with the industry playing a significant role in the country’s economy and employment.
The sector benefits from Vietnam’s competitive labor costs, skilled workforce, and preferential trade agreements such as the EU-Vietnam Free Trade Agreement (EVFTA) and the Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership (CPTPP).
However, challenges include increasing competition from neighboring countries, evolving consumer preferences, and pressures to adopt sustainable and ethical practices.
The food industry is another vital component of Vietnam’s economy, encompassing food processing, agriculture, and beverage production.
Vietnam is known for its diverse agricultural products, including rice, coffee, seafood, and tropical fruits, which contribute significantly to both domestic consumption and export revenue.
The sector faces challenges related to food safety and quality standards, technological modernization, and supply chain efficiency.
Vietnam has emerged as a key destination for electronics manufacturing, attracting investment from multinational companies in sectors such as semiconductors, smartphones, and consumer electronics.
The country benefits from a young and increasingly skilled workforce, competitive costs, and a strategic location that facilitates supply chain integration.
Challenges include the need for continued investment in infrastructure and technological capabilities to support the industry’s growth and competitiveness.
Looking ahead, Vietnam’s major industries are poised for continued growth, driven by factors such as ongoing industrialization, urbanization, and integration into global value chains. However, challenges remain, including the need for technological innovation, infrastructure development, sustainable practices, and adaptation to evolving market dynamics. Addressing these challenges will be crucial for sustaining the competitiveness and resilience of Vietnam’s main industries in the long term.
As industries such as garment/fashion, food processing, electronics manufacturing, and agriculture continue to drive Vietnam’s economy, it’s crucial to stay updated on market trends, regulatory changes, technological advancements, and competitive landscapes.

INTERVIEW: Lake Trout
From Jam Band To Radiohead-Esque Pop (Palm Records)
By: Alex Steininger
They began as a jam band, or, rather, were quickly lumped into the jam band scene, playing with jam band-branded acts and further solidifying their tag into the genre."We had a friend who was booking jam festivals and he booked us," says keyboardist Matt Pierce, on how the band became labeled as a jam band. "We were playing in front of a lot of people, which was great. But, other than that, we had no connections to the jam band scene, but somehow got labeled as a jam band."
The band broke the jam band labeling with their second full-length, Another One Lost, recently released on Palm Pictures.
With its Radiohead-esque soundscapes, dark textures, and ever-evolving focus on song structure over free-flowing improvisation, Another One Lost quickly helped the band earn a name for itself in the pop and indie-rock worlds, as they befriended like-minded bands who loved to experiment and use improvisation and electronic techniques alongside more structured compositions.
The result has found the band's fan base growing, as has their songwriting.
"We all grew up listening to rock," Pierce informs me. "When we all met, we were in school and didn't know what direction we were going. At first, we were going for big beats and used whatever we had on top of it, but we didn't have any direction. We knew we wanted to play together, but we just didn't know where to take it."
"We had songs we were starting to write that were more structured and we really liked the songs," he says, discussing the transition between Volume for the Rest of It, their debut full-length, and Another One Lost. "And then we went into the studio for a few days, to improve stuff, and let the tapes roll. That's where the instrumentals came from. We had two albums taking shape - the ambient stuff and the more structured songs. We blended the two and got the album we have now. But, going into it, we knew that we wanted it more structured."
Prior to recording Another One Lost, the direction their songwriting was headed wasn't the only transitional phase the band was in. The band, originally signed to SNS Records, left the label to sign (ever so briefly) with Phoenix Rising, before being sued by SNS and eventually signing to Palm Pictures, an indie label, but with a bit more resources.
"We've had the William Morris Agency booking us for a couple of years, before we had a label, or anything else we needed. And then things fell into place, but it took some time," Pierce says, hinting at the label difficulties they would go through, despite being booked by one of the biggest booking agencies in the world.
"SNS was one guy. Calling them a label is a very loose term," Pierce laughs. "They had no distribution, because he wanted to do it all himself. He sued us for six million dollars for signing with the new label, but that lawsuit was settled. We had a contract with him and everything, but since he wasn't done that good of a job, we signed with another label. Now we owe him a live record and had to pay him the money we owed him for signing a new contract. He was an ex. football player who had a lot of money and wanted to start a record label. Eventually, though, our business relationship went sour."
After leaving SNS, and signing with Palm, the band couldn't be happier.
"We've done a couple of really good tours and some OK ones. A few years ago we did the Sno-Core tour, and have toured a few times on our own. So our last tour was our 3rd or 4th national tour and it was our first with label support and a publicist. Things fell into place for us," he says excitedly.
The band is currently busy touring, and working on material for their next record.
"Our new songs, and our latest record, the songs are more structure-oriented. It has been an evolution," he tells me. "Studio wise we're heading into the more structured direction. However, live, we still like the instrumental stuff. We're still torn between the direction we want to pursue. We have a few shows booked this tour where we sit down and do instrumental, soundscape stuff, too."
"We might never record the instrumental stuff, I don't know. It's too soon to really say. The next album is definitely going to be all structured songs. That will be our focus. But we like the live instrumentals; we may just keep those live." | <urn:uuid:0335d011-f74d-4084-ad92-f8cef82b07ed> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://inmusicwetrust.com/articles/65h05.html | 2024-04-16T05:22:42Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817043.36/warc/CC-MAIN-20240416031446-20240416061446-00767.warc.gz | en | 0.991407 | 993 |

For so long the Sydney art scene has been begging to be satirised. The egos, the money, the hangers on, the thrilling vicissitudes.
Enter Oli Darling, a celebrity artist with a carefully curated image – the gay painter who grew up on a farm, wears expensively battered leather jackets, RM Williams boots carefully scuffed, drives a Hilux and lives in a rented, clifftop “sandstone palace”.
And he has a penchant for cocaine and a louche lifestyle.
The novel opens with him, upon waking, taking a long loving look at himself in the mirror. It’s a portrait of an artist – “clear skin, greasy shoulder-length hair, salt-flecked beard framing a crooked grin”.
This is followed by urgently checking his Instagram profile, wincing when a terrible amateur photo of him in a nightclub appears among the handsomely craggy self-portraits.
Oli has spent a lifetime schmoozing the super wealthy Sydney high society collectors, flitting about openings “like a hummingbird” and disappearing before he drinks too much and ruins his reputation.
They are effectively satirised; the Scion, the Baron, “the third-generation squatter who had inherited enormous wealth and, with it, limitless reserves of white guilt”.
And the richest of all, the Money who, on spying a woman with piecemeal plastic surgery, says “It’s like a bad reno – the facade is modernist but the bones are brutalist”.
On the eve of his latest exhibition Oli is feeling a touch of imposter syndrome. He knows the work – “colonial era watercolours sourced online, then defaced with sci-fi kitsch” – looks “phoned in” but he has run out of time.
Nevertheless, he embarks on the press interviews with his usual charm and gusto, spouting platitudes that the work is about “toxic masculinity. The river of it that runs through our culture” … spouting what one journalist will later realise is “nonsense.” Arts journalists will recognise it all.
To help him along on his press day Oli has visited his cocaine dealer, to whom he is in considerable debt, and by the time he appears on live television in the evening he is jaw-grindingly high.
After, in a moment of madness, disparaging the Anzacs, Oli finds himself cancelled, at risk of losing everything, no longer loved. The only way to redeem himself and retrieve his fortunes is to submit to a memoir about his life, spill his guts. For this he requires a ghost writer.
In comedic scenes he and the ghost writer keep ordering expensive bottles of wine in a fashionable bar, each broke and under the impression that the other is paying. There is a knowingness in this exchange – the author Liam Pieper is a notable ghost writer who by definition has never been credited for runaway bestsellers.
Once cancelled, Oli is subjected to humiliation after humiliation – slightly reminiscent of early Martin Amis – as he is sent out on the road to talk to uncomprehending school children.
The construct that is Oli will be stripped away, revealing that his early most seminal work, Daffo, comes from a fatal betrayal. There is tenderness for his young awkward misfit self.
And he learns that “the value of a painting is whatever someone is willing to pay for it”.
Oli, it turns out, is the creation of his former dealer turned agent, who mixes in some very dubious company. Artworks are a convenient and portable way of laundering money. Oli finds himself at the intersection of art and crime.
The word “hubris” is a constant refrain – about Sydney, the art world, Oli.
Always comedic, often profound, there is even gangster action towards the end. Oli Darling and his world are well and truly satirised in a fine contemporary novel by a hugely talented writer.
Appreciation by Liam Pieper, Hamish Hamilton, $34.99

Suffering from an injury cannot only be painful but can also get in the way of your job, livelihood, and personal health. In this article, we are going to discuss the ten best nutrition tips that can help a speedy recovery after an injury.
In England and Wales, a personal injury claim is filed 24,589 times every year. These can range from minor trips and falls to much more serious incidents resulting in life-changing injuries.
Suffering an injury can not only be painful but can also mean putting your life on hold due to the need for recuperation and, in some instances, physiotherapy sessions. Depending on the injury, recovery can take weeks, months or even years to get back to normal.
However, it is possible to speed up the process through gentle exercise and the right diet to speed up the recovery. Keep reading to find out the top 10 nutrition tips that experts advise for recovery after an injury.
Proteins, or macronutrients, are packed full of amino acids, which are essential for healthy tissues and muscles, and can be found in a number of foods. This includes eggs, meat, fish, dairy products and pulses, such as kidney beans and chickpeas.
For a healthy diet, protein should make up between 10 and 35 percent of our daily calories as standard. Following an injury, consuming extra protein can help to aid recovery by activating synthesis pathways in the body, which are able to remodel tissues and muscles.
Creatine is an organic compound which is made by the kidney and liver and is activated by the consumption of animal proteins, such as red meat and fish. Studies show that Creatine plays a major role in tissue repair, as well as increasing the anabolic potential of insulin. It is, therefore, a great tool for recovering from an injury.
While Creatine occurs naturally, this is usually in fairly small amounts and, therefore, many people choose to add a Creatine supplement to their diet during their recuperation in order to accelerate the process. Should you decide to go with the supplement option, always make sure that you buy these from a reputable supplier.
When we hear the word ‘fat’ associated with diet, we automatically think of this as a bad thing; however, there are plenty of good fats. These are not only essential for our general health but are also great for helping our bodies get over an injury.
‘Good fats’ help to combat inflammation and swelling, thereby speeding up the process of recovery. These fats can be found in many foods, including olive oil, fish, avocados and nuts and seeds. Even adding a handful of seeds or nuts to a meal can help to reduce recovery time for many injuries.
A whopping 60% of the human body is made up of water, so it goes without saying that keeping ourselves topped up is vital for our physical and mental health. Because of this, nutritionists recommend staying hydrated by drinking between six and eight glasses of liquid per day. This can include water, low-fat milk, tea, coffee and sugar-free cordial drinks.
Drinking plenty of water can boost anti-inflammatory systems, speed up the elimination of waste products, and help to heal damaged tissue. If drinking eight glasses of water a day seems like a bit of a tall order, you can also purchase special hydration gummies to supplement your water intake.
- Digestive Enzymes
Whilst the name may not sound particularly appetising, digestive enzymes are essential for absorbing and assimilating nutrients. When we suffer from an injury, our body’s demand for essential nutrients can increase by up to 50%, meaning that the digestive tract has to work much harder to process these nutrients.
Increasing your intake of bromelain, which is found largely in pineapple, papaya and trypsin, found in soybeans, kidney beans and peas, can have a positive impact on recovery. You can also, if you prefer, buy bromelain and trypsin supplements.
Zinc is an incredibly powerful anti-inflammatory tool which is key in maintaining muscle mass during periods of inactivity. As such, it is an important weapon in your arsenal when coming back from an injury.
Foods containing zinc include oysters, red meat, poultry, grains and seeds. Adding these to your diet after an injury is a great way of speeding up the recovery process.
As well as adding a tasty and colourful touch to a dish, berries such as blackberries, raspberries, and blueberries are jam-packed with vitamins and nutrients. These have a number of benefits, including anti-inflammatory properties and sleep-boosting melatonin, both of which can significantly boost recovery from injury. Cherries, in particular, are brimming with melatonin which promotes natural sleep, something which is vital for recovery from any illness or injury.
- The Bone Healers
As we get older, our bones become more fragile and tend to mend less quickly. This can be a particular problem in older people suffering bone injuries such as a broken arm or leg. These are injuries which can take a significant amount of time to heal.
While most people know that we need calcium for healthy bones, many aren’t aware that we also need Magnesium and Vitamin D. This holy trilogy of nutrients is an essential part of the healing process for broken and damaged bones.
As such, it’s a good idea to increase your consumption of foods containing these. This includes milk, greens such as spinach, avocados, and even dark chocolate in order to boost bone building for recovery.
This little-known compound is an incredibly effective healer and can help by reducing inflammation, alleviating pain and accelerating recovery. Derived from turmeric, curcumin is available in a topical form which can be applied directly to an injury or as a supplement to be taken alongside a healthy diet. Curcumin can be found in mango, ginger and, of course, turmeric and can be added to dishes like curries for a tasty boost to your recovery.
- Nutrients that can help Joint Injuries
Joint injuries such as fractures, breaks, sprains, and osteoporosis-related incidents are incredibly common and can be debilitating as well as painful. There are a few powerful nutrients which can help to alleviate the pain of these injuries while also promoting faster and more effective healing. Some of these include:
- MSM– a compound which occurs naturally in the body; MSM is great for healing nerve tissue, joints and skin as well as helping with pain.
- Glucosamine– an amino sugar found in prawns, lobster and crabs, glucosamine is a hero for joints and a natural healer.
- Chondroitin– commonly used as a treatment for bone and joint ailments, chondroitin can be found in some kinds of fish but is largely bought as a powder supplement.
Whilst all three of these nutrients can help recovery from an injury, for the best results, all of these should be taken together.
Ready to Have a Speedy Recovery?
When recovering from an injury, we often have to sacrifice doing the things that we love, such as going to the gym, playing sports and even socialising. Rest and recuperation are, however, vital for recovery, and trying to do too much too soon can make the problem worse.
As well as getting plenty of rest, proper nutrition is key to your recovery. Increasing your intake of some or all of the foods mentioned in this article can have a big impact on the effectiveness of your recovery, as well as the time that it takes.
An active lifestyle is extremely important for our physical and mental well-being, and an injury which takes a long time to recover from can have a very real impact. It’s therefore important to add these vital nutrients to your diet not just during recovery from injury and illness but as a regular part of your diet.

16 And the LORD God commanded the man, saying, Of every tree of the garden thou mayest freely eat:
17 But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die.
God never changes. What He has willed for our lives is the same today as it was 6,000 years ago. His first command was that we tend to the Garden.
The Garden is still here. It has been over-run with thorns and thistles, and has turned to rocky mountain paths and dry deserts, and sometimes flooded valleys; but the command is the same today as it was on that day.
God also gave us a warning to remain innocent. As long as we followed His command not to know, ignorance is bliss and faith abounds.
I know people who don't want to know if something bad has happened. It's like the old figurines of the three monkeys: "See no evil", "Hear no evil", "Speak no evil". They believe that if you don't see it, hear it or speak it, it isn't there.
We know that is not true; but, knowing that makes us less than innocent bystanders.
As children, we are considered innocent until we know the difference between right and wrong. As long as we don't know the difference, our actions and reactions can be easily excused and forgiven. However, once we KNOW the difference, sin become willful and dangerous.
This is what God did not want for us. He wanted us to remain innocent. Innocence brings joy to everyone -- except Satan. For some reason, Satan is jealous of the innocent. I assume is it because the joy they bring to the table of God, Satan cannot do.
Today, we know the difference. We are no longer "innocent". Only the blood of Jesus can redeem us, and we must acknowledge and accept that sacrifice every moment of our lives in order to be called by His Name. | <urn:uuid:f938e8d7-d52d-4df7-bd72-d69a99b4673d> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://inspirationbygod.blogspot.com/2024/02/ | 2024-04-16T05:28:59Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817043.36/warc/CC-MAIN-20240416031446-20240416061446-00767.warc.gz | en | 0.978919 | 421 |

Most of us have lived in fear of World War III for most of our lives. After all, we saw how much damage the Axis did during World War II. How much worse would a global conflict be with the weapons and technology of this age?
This was a threat keenly understood by Albert Einstein. One quote often attributed to the great thinker is that “World War IV would be fought with sticks and stones.” The message is simple: another global conflict could very well set us back to the Stone Age.
What could be more frightening than that cheerful thought? Simple: the fact that we’ve already come close to another world war on several different occasions!
Don’t believe it? Keep reading to learn more about the times that World War III almost happened!
The Cuban Missile Crisis
For many years, America was locked into a Cold War with the Soviet Union. As you might imagine, several of our close calls with World War III happened during this time. And the most infamous of these occasions was the Cuban Missile Crisis.
In October of 1962, President John F. Kennedy was locked into a 13-day standoff with Soviet Union leader Nikita Khrushchev. Thanks to Fidel Castro, the Soviet Union had access to missiles in Cuba. From there, they could easily strike American targets and launch America into a new global conflict.
That conflict seemed inevitable when the president blockaded Cuba and made it clear he was ready to launch an invasion to stop those missiles. Fortunately, cooler heads prevailed, and Russia removed the missiles from Cuba even as America removed missiles from Turkey. Still, it’s fair to say that in this instant, we were a heartbeat away from World War III.
Vietnam was nearly much worse
At this point, it’s safe to say that the conflict in Vietnam is one of the most embarrassing things to happen to the United States. That conflict almost singlehandedly undermined confidence in America as both a world power and a military force. However, Vietnam was very nearly worse than anyone could imagine!
History News Network reports that Lyndon Johnson’s generals wanted him to make even bigger forays into Vietnam after the conflict started. This caused LBJ to cuss those generals out because he feared (perhaps rightly so) that American intervention on such a level might lead to nuclear war with either Russia or China.
Years later, LBJ’s stance was vindicated when Khrushchev ally Anastas Mikoyan’s uncensored memoirs were published in Russia. Those memoirs revealed that during Vietnam, Soviet Minister of Defense General Rodion Malinovskii worried America might invade Cuba next and that Russia needed to be ready to attack West Berlin in retaliation!
A training exercise almost went horrifically wrong
The idea that the American military would disguise serious operations or serious screw-ups as a “military exercise” has become something of a pop culture joke. In fact, Tony Stark references this practice in the first Iron Man movie. Over two decades before the MCU, though, a 1983 training exercise nearly started a World War.
According to the National Security Archive, the operation in question was ABLE ARCHER. It was a joint US/NATO war game where one of the major goals was testing communication between North America and Europe in the event of (you guessed it) World War III.
To play it safe, every encoded message began with the word “exercise,” and everyone involved thought the Russians would decode and understand that word. However, Russia began reacting as if NATO was getting ready to launch a nuclear strike!
Fortunately for everyone, Russia seemingly realized what was going on and stopped preparing to strike in retaliation. Still, this brush with World War III was enough to get Reagan to reach out to the Kremlin, despite infamously calling the Soviet Union an “evil empire” the year before.
Risks with Syria
If there is one thing Donald Trump is known for, it is the blistering trash talk of his political rivals. So it is no surprise that during the lead-up to the 2016 election that he eventually won, CNN reports that Trump said, “You’re going to end up in World War III over Syria if we listen to Hillary Clinton.”
He was referring to Clinton’s suggestion of establishing no-fly zones to help Syrian citizens affected by that country’s civil war. Proving that time is a flat circle, Trump suggested that doing this might antagonize Russia, which he reminded everyone was “a nuclear country.”
Only time will tell if this was a close brush with global conflict or political bluster at the end of a long, bitter campaign.
The persistent threat of North Korea
One of Donald Trump’s many controversies as president is how friendly he acted toward North Korea. Many criticized Trump for being so friendly with Kim Jung-Un, especially given North Korea’s well-documented history of human rights violations. To hear Trump talk, though, his friendliness was a way of saving the world!
Trump was the first sitting United States president to visit North Korea. During a NATO summit, he spoke disparagingly about former president Obama’s hardline stance against North Korea. As reported by NewsWeek, Trump said that if the country had listened to Obama’s advice “we’d be in World War 3 right now.”
Once again, it’s impossible to test the veracity of Trump’s words. Still, making political inroads against a dangerous rival that could always complete the development of its nuclear program may very well have helped us achieve a temporary peace.
Could the Russian invasion of Ukraine lead to WWIII?
Most of these brushes with World War III occurred many years ago, and we can take solace from the fact that a greater conflict was averted. But what if we were in the midst of a global conflict right now and didn’t even know it?
One week after Russia invaded Ukraine, the Independent interviewed Ukraine’s former prime minister, Volodymyr Groysman, and he had very dire words of warning. According to him, World War III had “already started” thanks to the invasion. Furthermore, he claimed that Ukraine represented Europe’s “only defense” against potential Russian invasion.
Famously, Russia’s invasion of Ukraine has not gone as well as Putin had planned. But considering the amount of money and weapons America is sending to Ukraine, many already see this as a proxy war where America is fighting Russia via a third party. And whether Russia triumphs in its invasion or continues to lose, Putin’s reaction may be enough to put the entire world in danger. | <urn:uuid:fbf15402-17ad-44f9-9343-06cb05f2da4e> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://instanthub.net/politics/6-times-world-war-iii-almost-happened/ | 2024-04-16T05:01:32Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817043.36/warc/CC-MAIN-20240416031446-20240416061446-00767.warc.gz | en | 0.974061 | 1,399 |

Easily the most anticipated musical theater event of the summer is “Disney’s The Lion King.”
Dubbed as “The World’s #1 Musical,” the acclaimed multi-awarded production is currently in the Manila leg of its ongoing international tour which also include stops in Singapore, Korea, Taiwan and South Africa.
Based on the 1994 Disney animated classic, it is not only a visual spectacle that features human actors made up in the likeness of the animated animal characters in the original film but also includes the well-loved songs created by Elton John and Tim Rice including “Circle of Life,” “Hakuna Matata,” and “Can You Feel The Love Tonight?”
In a recent interview with InterAksyon, two of the musical’s lead actors, Calvyn Grandling who plays Simba and Noxolo Dlamini who portrays Nala recall the first time they saw the movie.
“I remember watching the film together with my whole family. My mom with her family and my uncle with his family. And I cried when Mufasa died. It was a beautiful experience because while we’ve had dinner over the years but it was the only time my whole family was sitting together watching a movie,” Calvyn recalled.
Noxolo, on the other hand, said she was too young (“I was still in nursery school”) to understand “The Lion King” during its original theatrical run. While she also cried when the original lion king, Mufasa died, she said it wasn’t until she saw it again when she was older when she started to have a better appreciation of the story.
So it was a big thrill for Calvyn and Noxolo when they were cast for their respective parts.
“When I opened the email, I ran to my mom and said ‘I got it!’ It was amazing, like a dream come true for me,” exclaimed Calvyn, who has been playing Simba in several “Lion King” productions since 2007.
“I wanted the role of Nala so much I cried like a baby when I learned I got it,” added Noxolo, who made her “Lion King” debut in 2015.
But while both actors hail from South Africa and have been doing theater for quite a while, they never actually met until the cast for the international tour was announced. Weeks of rehearsals however, allowed Calvyn and Noxolo to develop a palpable chemistry that further enhanced their performances.
Of course, it also helps that they were able to relate to their characters on a personal level.
“The father and son relationship between Mufasa and Simba is the core of “The Lion King.” Every time I’m in character, I just recall all the happy moments I’ve had with my own father,” noted Calvyn who also admired how Simba was able to regain his birthright after losing it when his uncle Scar killed his father.
Noxolo looks at Nala as a strong individual.
“She’s a warrior who has a very strong will. Her character sends a message to the young girls that sometimes you need to step outside of your comfort zone to get things done. In my life, I have experienced different struggles that taught me how to be strong like Nala,” the actress pointed out.
“The Lion King” runs until May 8 at The Theatre at Solaire Resort and Casino.

The effort was part of AEC Cares projectOrlando. Each year, AEC Cares brings together Construct Connect, the AIA, Hanley Wood and leading manufacturers for a blitz build that benefits that host community of the Conference on Architecture.
This year’s project benefited the Coalition of the Homeless of Central Florida’s Center for Women and Families. The Coalition serves more than 600 men, women and children every night, including 150 children with an average age of 7.
The renovations included upgrades to the lobby of the Center, renovations to the family dorm hallways, and an upgrade to the family room.
Window Interiors provided installers for the project. They installed MechoSystems EcoVeil Sheer manual shades, which allow in daylight without a harsh glare.
This is the seventh year for AEC Cares’ blitz build. The renovations were completed on April 26.
Window Interiors has also participated in several other give back opportunities, including with Give Kids the World.
