They say that one of the best qualities of a good head coach is consistently putting his players in the best position to be successful. It extends beyond X’s and O’s, too—sports, like the business world, is all about relationships. Those who can connect with their players, or at the very least encourage buy-in from their players, are going to have a better chance to produce results on the field.
Consider this quote from longtime NFL coach Bum Phillips:
“Don Shula can take his’n and beat you’n, and he could take you’n and beat his’n.”
Indeed, it seems like a common quality amongst the best head coaches in the history of the game. They’re simply capable of getting more out of their players and people than the average coach. There are great coaches, there are good coaches and there are average coaches. And then there are coaches like Adam Gase.
Gase’s career as an NFL head coach to this point reads like Phillips’ quote about the great Don Shula, but with a slight twist.
“Adam Gase can take his’n and lose to you’n, and he could take you’n and lose to his’n.”
Sporting a 30-34 career record as a head coach, Gase has been the epitome of average to this point in his career. But it isn’t just the average record—there are plenty of coaches with modest or worse records as the leaders of their teams. It’s how Gase has lost (he has 3 more wins than he does double digit losses) and how he has managed to alienate good players that is most incredible to consider. Gase’s teams have had some good talent—and they’re almost all universally better immediately after moving on from playing under his watch.
Consider some of the players jettisoned out of Miami during Gase’s three-year run with the team.
WR Jarvis Landry — Landry’s story is the most famous falling out in Miami. Landry was one of the NFL’s most productive players, but his two seasons under Gase in Miami were highlighted by 112 receptions in 2017 for less than nine yards per reception. Landry insisted his talent was more valuable than serving as a check-down option, but talking to Gase about his concerns wasn’t an option.
"When I’d go to talk to Gase about (expanding my route tree), he’d curse me out," said Landry. "'Why are you telling me how to do my job?' It got to the point where the environment was just awful."
So Landry was traded to the Browns, a destination where Gase reportedly threatened to trade other Dolphins players for poor performances in the past.
In the two years since Landry was traded from Miami to Cleveland, the receiver has seen his yards per catch swell from 10.3 yards in two seasons under Gase to 13.1 in two seasons without him, including a career-high 14.1 yards per receptions in 2019.
DT Jordan Phillips — Phillips was a former second-round selection for Miami in 2015 and was cut by Gase four games into the 2018 season; Gase’s final year with the team. By the end of the 2019 season, Phillips had logged 9.5 sacks last year for the Buffalo Bills, the team that claimed him after he was cut by Miami.
OG Billy Turner — Turner was an early third-round selection for the Dolphins in 2014 and was unceremoniously cut by Gase midway through his third season in Miami, his first under Gase. Turner turned in a bad performance and was cut just days after being the team’s starter on the offensive line. And while Turner’s play has still been up and down in the three years since, he did play well enough as a starter in Denver to command a 4-year $28M contract with the Packers ahead of the 2019 season. Gase gave him away for free.
RB Damien Williams — Williams spent two years under Gase and logged 296 rushing yards and three rushing touchdowns over that span. Williams, while still in a complementary role, has logged 754 yards and nine rushing scores in two years in Kansas City. In all, his yards from scrimmage and total touchdowns (13 in two seasons with the Chiefs) doubled as well. What hurts the most about this one? Gase effectively gave Williams the cold shoulder, first telling Williams that Miami intended to bring him back to the team in 2018. But Williams underwent shoulder surgery that offseason and Gase went on that offseason to never return his phone calls, leading him to sign in Kansas City.
“That really hurt,” said Williams. “I was there four years and gave Miami my all. I still have not spoken to him to this day. That hurt me because me and Gase were cool.”
And yet, despite the mismanagement of talent being kicked to the curb in Miami, the players who remained in South Florida after Gase had been relieved of his duties (a decision that prompted reactions from both Landry and Phillips on social media when it was announced) and played under new management in 2019 is an even more damning indictment of Gase as a coach. Four key skill players who were supposed to thrive under Gase in Miami enjoyed their best seasons (by far) as pros in their first season without Gase calling their plays.
QB Ryan Tannehill (w/ Tennessee) — Tannehill’s career revival in Tennessee is well documented. After starting the season as the backup to Marcus Mariota, Tannehill commandeered the Titans offense midway through the year and unlocked the team’s passing game with impressive efficiency. Tannehill posted a 70% completion percentage, tossed a touchdown on 7.7% of his pass attempts, and led the NFL in yards per attempt (9.6) and quarterback rating (117.5). His play under Gase wasn’t necessarily bad from a statistical standpoint, but the Dolphins offense always felt like it was playing with one hand tied behind its back and Tannehill, who endured a relentless pounding under previous head coach Joe Philbin’s watch, was hurt frequently under Gase, missing 24 of a possible 48 starts.
There’s plenty of blame for Tannehill’s tenure in Miami that doesn’t fall at the feet of Gase, but it is also quite convenient that Tannehill is thriving at the first possible stop after getting out from underneath him.
RB Kenyan Drake (w/ Arizona) — Like Tannehill, there’s plenty of blame for why Kenyan Drake never lived up to his potential in Miami that extends beyond Gase. But Gase chose Drake to be his heir to the running back position after the team unceremoniously traded RB Jay Ajayi mid-season in 2017—who was another player Gase discarded because of perceived effort and preparation issues. Drake was supposed to take over the mantle, only for Gase to defer to veteran RB Frank Gore instead. Drake, despite a promising 4.5 yards per carry and plenty of upside in the passing game, started just seven games in 2018 and only rushed the ball 120 times on the season.
Drake struggled to start the year in 2019 without Gase in the picture due to the Dolphins’ stripped-down offensive line that could best be described as “offensive.” But a trade to Arizona allowed Drake to thrive as he surpassed his 2018 rushes in just eight games with the Cardinals and came within a single yard of his previous career high over a full season in those same 8 games (643 yards & eight scores). As it turns out, Drake’s talent has always been there, but his opportunity was not.
WR DeVante Parker — Parker enjoyed a promising second season in 2016 in Gase’s first season, logging 744 yards and four scores over 15 games. But the next two seasons saw Parker spend the vast majority of his time in Gase’s dog house; including one odd stretch that saw the Dolphins leave Parker inactive while Gase claimed he was not fit to play. The assert was met in force by Parker’s agent, Jimmy Gould.
"I find the decision to make DeVante inactive today by Coach Gaze incompetent and insulting," Gould was quoted in a statement.
"It's also just not true and I am sick of hearing him say my player is not healthy. This is the third game this year that DeVante should have played in when you include the Jets and Patriots….What a horrific decision by Coach Gaze and he needs to take a very long look in the mirror and make himself inactive."
Parker stumbled through the final two years of Gase’s tenure without any support from his coach before coming alive in 2019 without Gase’s hands all over the offense, posting career highs in starts (14), targets (128), receptions (72), yards (1,202), and touchdowns (9) under the watch of a more player-friendly coach in Brian Flores.
TE Mike Gesicki — Gesicki is perhaps the best case of mismanagement of talent throughout Gase’s tenure with the Dolphins. Miami drafted Gesicki, a flex tight end from Penn State, with a second-round pick in the 2018 NFL Draft and the Dolphins proceeded to line him up with a hand in the dirt of 60% of his snaps his rookie season. On 31% of his reps, he was asked to run block. The Dolphins charged him with pass protection on 20% of his reps as a rookie as well.
It shouldn’t have been this hard. The Dolphins drafted a seam-buster at tight end and asked him to play with his hand in the dirt and block for more than half of his reps as a rookie. It’s no wonder he was Pro Football Focus’ 107th ranked TE in pass protection and 131st ranked TE in run blocking that season.
It’s also no surprise that, with Gase out of the picture, Gesicki magically posted more than double the receptions (51), yards (570), and five more scores in 2019 than he did under Gase in 2018.
Gase’s struggles to manage his team have extended into his tenure with the Jets already after just one season. He botched handling an injury to starting guard Kelechi Osemele that spiraled so violently out of control that Osemele was cut by the end of October in Gase’s first season with the Jets. The relationship fractured in part because Gase went weeks without speaking to one of his starters on offense because “(Osemele) hasn’t asked to speak with me.”
Gase managed to alienate both prized free agents of 2019, RB Le’Veon Bell and LB C.J. Mosley, within his first three months on the job when it became public in the aftermath of the Jets firing GM Mike Maccagnan that Gase did not want to spend the money necessary to sign both players in free agency earlier that offseason.
Things were so bad for Bell last season that the veteran back probably wishes he’d already joined the club and been traded by Gase. During his time in Pittsburgh, Bell was routinely one of the most productive backs in football. He averaged 86.1 rushing yards per game over five years with the Steelers and logged an average of seven rushing touchdowns per season. His 2019 year with the Jets? Bell carried the ball 245 times and averaged 3.2 yards per carry—logging a grand total of 311 total touches for just 4.0 yards per touch and just four total touchdowns. The Jets paid Bell just short of $15 million in cash last season—the first of a four-year, $52M contract.
And now, in a span of eight months, star safety Jamal Adams has gone from expressing his desire to be a “Jet for life” to demanding a trade from the team. It should be a surprise to no one that Gase is reportedly a large reason why.
We have enough of a sample size of who Gase is to know which side of that conflict the Jets should be ready to take. Will they? Or will they simply allow Gase’s growing list of talents to thrive more than ever after moving on from his leadership to include Adams, who is one of the brightest young defensive stars in the game? | <urn:uuid:f6c6bf68-8e4d-4fa4-8538-92357760c77b> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://thedraftnetwork.com/articles/adam-gase-jets-dolphins-player-interactions | 2020-09-25T10:09:18Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400223922.43/warc/CC-MAIN-20200925084428-20200925114428-00609.warc.gz | en | 0.983442 | 2,622 |
Last year we didn’t do much about Valentine’s Day because we’d just gotten Molly the Cat and felt an urgency to be home with our cute little ball of fur. I don’t think we’ve ever done much about Valentine’s Day; the sentiment is nice but I feel sort of silly about it. It’s just the two of us all the time, you know?
We’ll go out later this week, when the restaurants are quiet and we’re not surrounded by moon-eyed couples sitting on the same side of the booth, which makes me irrationally angry, which is the opposite of how you’re supposed to feel on February 14. Seriously – can’t they hear each other chew when they sit like that, and doesn’t that just shoot the romance right in the foot?
But I do like a good theme. So tonight, even if we weren’t celebrating, we did recognize the day, and Meatless Monday, with a plate of lusty, blood-red risotto. It was both virtuous and decadent, with its vegetable stock and beets and butter and Manchego cheese, and it came together in the 30 minutes Nick spent tidying the kitchen. Add a little red wine on the side, and there’s no better way I can think of to spend a Monday Valentine’s Day.
Beet risotto with Manchego
- 1 tbsp. olive oil
- 2 tbsp. butter, divided
- 1/2 tsp. red chili flakes
- 1 medium onion, chopped
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 cup arborio rice
- 1 tsp. smoked paprika
- 1/2 cup dry red wine
- 1 medium beet, peeled and finely shredded
- 3 to 4 cups warm vegetable stock
- 1/2 cup shredded Manchego cheese
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- Handful chopped fresh parsley
Heat stock until boiling, then reduce heat and maintain a gentle simmer.
In a heavy-bottomed pan over medium-high heat, heat oil and melt the first tablespoon of butter with the red chili flakes. Add onions and garlic, and cook for two to three minutes, until onions are translucent. Add paprika and rice to pan, stirring for about a minute, or until rice grains turn opaque. Add the wine.
Add one cup of the warm vegetable stock, stirring frequently until liquid is mostly absorbed. Repeat with an additional cup of stock, and then repeat again with one to two more cups as needed. Test your rice for tenderness – if it is al denté, great. If it isn’t, just pour in a little bit more stock, as needed, and let it absorb into the rice. I almost always need the full four cups of stock.
When rice is ready, stir in butter and Manchego cheese. Taste, and adjust seasonings quickly, as needed. Stir in parsley, and serve hot, with additional Parmesan cheese and a light sprinkling of chopped fresh parsley.
And Happy Valentine’s Day. However you did or did not celebrate it, I hope you had a lovely evening and ate something you really liked, in the company of someone you really like, whether it was you alone or with someone else. | <urn:uuid:aa5167ef-fa21-47f5-9e25-e3be2a490056> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://wellfedflatbroke.com/2011/02/14/beet-risotto/ | 2020-09-25T08:59:12Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400223922.43/warc/CC-MAIN-20200925084428-20200925114428-00609.warc.gz | en | 0.940248 | 698 |

Spring Preview: Experienced leadership a plus for city/area tennis squads
The Battle Creek Enquirer takes a look at the area teams in this spring high school girls tennis sports preview
- Coaches are reminded to send in results to the Enquirer on a weekly basis
- To nominate Athletes of the Week, send to [email protected]
Looking around the area in girls tennis, you notice the quality and experience of the coaching, which gives the local teams a big advantage during the season.
Gull Lake’s Roger Cornelius will be in his 43rd season as a head coach this spring, one of the longest tenures in any sport in the state.
Beyond that, Pennfield's John Corcoran is in his 21st year in coaching and, even though Don Hudson and Jim Cummins haven’t been the co-head coaches at Harper Creek for long, they have been coaching high school tennis in the area for decades.
Fans of high school girls tennis will find out just how much all that coaching will help with key dates coming up, including the All-City meet on May 4, and regionals starting May 16. The MHSAA state tournament is set for the weekend of May 31 at various locations.
Here’s a closer look at the city and area girls tennis teams for 2019:
Battle Creek Central
Coach: Matthew Bozzo (First season)
2018 record: N/A
Top returners: Cing Dim, sr.; Gillian Stanger, sr.
Outlook: Battle Creek Central has struggled in recent seasons with low numbers on the squad. Under first-year coach Matthew Bozzo, that trend is turning around as the Bearcats doubled their roster for the 2019 season, led by seniors Cing Dim and Gillian Stanger.
“I am very excited to see this program grow and foster lots of growth among the team. We have a lot of ninth-graders participating, and this season will be fundamental for them in their next seasons in their high school career. As always, we are very much looking forward to this season, and we will try our hardest every practice, every match,” Bozzo said.
Coach: Don Hudson, Jim Cummins, Stuart Noble
2018 record: 5-6, 5th in I-8, 5th at regionals
Top Returners: Julia Hooker, jr.; Abby Williams, sr.; Grace Weller, jr.; Katelin Richards, sr.; Mary Welk, jr.
Outlook: Harper Creek may have to go through a bit of a rebuilding project after graduating half the roster. However, the Beavers do bring back their No. 1 singles player in Julia Hooker, an all-conference player last year. Also returning is Abby Williams, who moves from No. 3 singles to No. 2.
“We like the enthusiasm and determination of these players, but still need to find the right positions and the best partner combinations to make our season a successful one. Girls are great listeners and avid learners, so we expect to get better as the season progresses,” Cummins said.
Coach: Jeff Van Dis (3rd season)
2018 record: 13-6, 2nd in the SMAC East
Top returners: Breh Ruger, sr.; Co Nguyen, sr.; Kelsey Marquez, sr.; Brigitte Colquhoun, sr.; Ngun Sung, sr.; Van Cawnhlun, sr.; Libby Robins, jr.; Sharon Huang, jr.
Outlook: Lakeview loses four of its top six players from a year ago, but the Spartans are not short on experience with six seniors expected to fill out the varsity lineup in most duals. Leading the way is senior Breh Ruger, who was All-City champ last year and has already committed to play at the next level at Albion College. Co Nguyen also played singles last year and will return to that position giving the team depth.
“We have six seniors and that will make our lineup stronger at the top. Overall, I have a nice group of players who really want to improve. We have a lot of work to do, but our players are up for the challenge. Our expectations, again this year, are to get better each and every day with our tennis,” Van Dis said.
Coach: John Corcoran (21st season)
2018 record: 3-8
Top returners: Morgan Allen, Leah Hopkins, Lauren Saxton, Kelsey Coger, Arayia Robbins, Jordyn Eyre, Kaysey Barnes, Molly Mackenzie, Julianne Gilley, Emily Reed.
Outlook: Pennfield was very young last year and struggled with a below .500 record, starting six freshmen at times in varsity matches. However, the plus side is that all of those players are back with varsity experience. Morgan Allen will lead the way in the early going at No. 1 singles, with Leah Hopkins and Lauren Saxton also coming back with singles experience.
“We are still very young, but those players should be stronger with a year of experience. In addition, we have a nice mix of upperclassmen that will provide the necessary leadership,” Corcoran said.
Coach: Carol Cameron (2nd season)
2018 record: 8-1-1; League champs, finished third in All-City
Top returners: Eryn Crocker, sr.; Lydia Cutshall, sr.; Taylor Hood, sr.; Alex Pessetti, sr.; Alexis Behnke, jr.; Elizabeth Lan, jr.; Megan Moore, jr.; Katie Myers, jr.; Meghan Stevens, jr.; Harleen Deol, so.; Mckenzee Kositzke, so.
Outlook: St. Philip figures to have the returning depth to contend once again for its league championship, while looking to hold its own overall after going 8-1-1 last year. Both Alex Pessetti and Alexis Behnke bring good experience at singles and will take over the top flights there.
“Our team goal is to defend our SMITL league title and qualify for the state tournament and remain competitive in all of our matches and tournaments,” Cameron said.
Best of the Rest
Coach: Roger Cornelius (43rd season)
2018 record: 5-5-2
Top returners: Jessi Crandall, Jayne Flynn, Hannah Edgerly, Mia Green, Alayna Cornelius, Kendra Hagey, Grace Martinez
Outlook: With Gull Lake getting its top two players back at No. 1 singles and No. 2 singles in Jessi Crandall and Jayne Flynn, respectively, the Blue Devils have high hopes for the season. The reality, however, is that Gull Lake will need to contend with some of the top teams in the state in its division and in its regional if it hopes to get any postseason honors.
“I think we can be better this year, but we even if we are, we are in the toughest regional in the state with the two Portage schools, Lakeview, Mattawan and Sturgis,” Cornelius said.
Coach: Cristy Ortiz (2nd season)
2018 record: 21-3; 6-2 in the league
Top returners: Katelyn Kozlowski, jr.; Hannah Larson, sr.; Grace Underwood, sr.
Outlook: In the first season as head coach at Marshall, Ortiz led the Redhawks to an impressive 21-3 record and finished in the top half of the league. However, Marshall lost nine seniors off that team and will be looking to fill slots with new faces early in the season. The Redhawks will be led by Katelyn Kozlowski at No. 1 singles after she played No. 3 last year.
“We will be a young team, but with most of the group having played tennis and most have done camps in the offseason, I am confident we will be very competitive and will fight to win and our team goal this year is to improve little every day,” Ortiz said.

Professor Øyvind Norli, førsteamanuensis Charlotte Østergaard og førsteamanuensis Ibolya Schindele har publisert en fagartikkel i The Review of Financial Studies
Blockholders' incentives to intervene in corporate governance are weakened by free-rider problems and high costs of activism. Theory suggests activists may recoup expenses through informed trading of target rms' stock when stocks are liquid. We show that stock liquidity increases the probability of activism but does less so for potentially overvalued rms for which privately informed blockholders may have greater incentives to sell their stake than to intervene. We also document that activists accumulate more stocks in targets when stock is more liquid. We conclude that liquidity helps overcome the free-rider problem and induces activism via preactivism accumulation of target rms' shares. | <urn:uuid:e45b2010-ff3a-47cd-a6e6-c9077a97e60b> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://www.bi.no/forskning/business-review/publications/2015/liquidity-and-shareholder-activism/ | 2020-09-25T11:06:48Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400223922.43/warc/CC-MAIN-20200925084428-20200925114428-00609.warc.gz | en | 0.889075 | 176 |

Now that the Real Estate Market is recovering, maybe it is time to invest in commercial real estate? If someone does, how do they know if they are making a reasonable rate of return on their investment. The following are 2 basic ways to calculate the return.
1: Cash on Cash Return
How much money is needed to be invested in a property now to generate return at the end of the first or following years?
With the improving economy, now is a good time to get into commercial real estate in Henderson, Nevada. Once your commercial project is completed, look up and you will see the latest and greatest in fire sprinkler systems and know that you and your business are safe. Technical advances in fire sprinkler technology are making all of us safer. It is not just technology that is changing, but also the building codes and enforcement that determine where fire systems are required, especially, in commercial construction.
As we go about our day to day business there are thousands of things we take for granted. Shopping for groceries, going to the hardware store, picking up a package at the post office and often in our own homes all we have to do is look up, look closely and there they are. Protecting us twenty four hours a day, seven days a week. Hopefully, they will never be used. Are fire sprinkler systems a recent technology developed to protect us? Actually no, the concept has been around for centuries. | <urn:uuid:f5e25bb9-93b0-4c80-bed5-c3b009d26517> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://www.desimonecommercial.com/blog/archives/02-2015 | 2020-09-25T11:16:26Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400223922.43/warc/CC-MAIN-20200925084428-20200925114428-00609.warc.gz | en | 0.961498 | 289 |
27 Mar DDS Launches New Website and Solution Suite for E-Commerce Electrical Product Content
Redesigned Site Takes DDS ‘Prime Time’ in Marketplace
(Mar. 27, 2018) – SALT LAKE CITY – Distributor Data Solutions (DDS), a premier e-commerce product content provider focused in the electrical and automation industries, has re-launched its website, www.distributordatasolutions.com.
Recognizing that electrical distributor needs have changed significantly over the past couple of years, as have the services offered to distributors and manufacturers, the company sought to clarify and communicate its expanded offering serving the e-commerce needs of distributors, manufacturers and other partners within the electrical distribution industry.
DDS was formed in 2014 by veterans of the electrical industry to assist distributors with the challenges of obtaining and presenting top-quality product content on their e-commerce websites. For the past four years, DDS has been quietly developing a suite of products using intelligent technologies and concepts to power e-content for distributors seeking to differentiate their e-commerce offering and provide exceptional service to their customers. The launch of this robust new site reflects the company’s advanced entry to the marketplace, with a refined solution that includes product content maintenance, advanced search insights, reporting and tools to support manufacturer content syndication.
“There is a distinct lack of technology in the distribution industry with respect to gathering product data from manufacturers and making it available for distributors’ customers,” says Dale Holt, former owner of Codale Electric Supply, now a Sonepar company, and founder and president of DDS. “We have been hard at work building solutions that flat-out do not exist in the marketplace. We truly took an outside-the-box approach to helping distributors navigate the complex realities associated with building and maintaining an exceptional e-commerce presence. And with the technology that exists today, why would someone want to employ hundreds of people to manually enter manufacturer-provided information?”
DDS boasts a full suite of product offerings centered around enhanced product content, including intelligent category management, regular content maintenance, detailed change reporting, and a couple of game-changing industry exclusives: foreign language translation and ETIM classification.
DDS’ solutions are e-commerce platform-agnostic and scalable to fit any size or type of company. Their services feature an automated and seamless delivery system that works effortlessly and cost-effectively, with little resource burden on distributors through implementation and beyond.
DDS began serving electrical distributors in the U.S. and Latin America and has quickly gained traction in Europe and the Middle East, where distributors share similar e-commerce pains.
“E-Commerce is changing the way every industry does business,” says David Gordon of Channel Marketing Group, a consulting firm serving the distribution industry. “Distribution is a massive, global industry, and the need for improved e-commerce is a pervasive and urgent concern among distributors and manufacturers alike. In fact, our recent research reports highlight that customers are going online for product information more than ever, and our clients report that improved product quality is converting into higher online sales. DDS is addressing all of this head-on with some really smart strategies.”
In developing their distribution-centric technologies and processes, DDS works with hundreds of manufacturers, both as a direct source for product content and for their insight into its delivery for e-commerce. As a result, in addition to their solutions for distributors, DDS also helps manufacturers and other industry partners with product content enhancement and syndication, translated content, taxonomy and more.
“The tools we’ve been able to build to help distributors have proven equally valuable to manufacturers and other groups, who have their own challenges when it comes to getting complete, consistent content to distributors and ultimately end-users,” says Matt Christensen, vice president of DDS. “We are bringing the same level of customer experience that you find with leading e-commerce sites to this vastly under-served, but globally critical market.” | <urn:uuid:04173a83-e5d7-46f6-a47c-6d6a2e7b67f9> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://www.distributordatasolutions.com/dds-launches-new-website-and-solution-suite-for-e-commerce-electrical-product-content/ | 2020-09-25T09:48:48Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400223922.43/warc/CC-MAIN-20200925084428-20200925114428-00609.warc.gz | en | 0.941897 | 835 |

This study aims to assess the moderating effect of the business network on the effects of between relational behavior and the effects of transaction‐specific investments on joint actions.
The study was a survey based field study designed using theoretical support from marketing channels, transaction cost economics and network perspectives.
The results show the importance of relational behavior and the network in coordinating joint actions, and this has relevant managerial implications for the coordination of a collaborative relationship. The characteristics of the relationship, its length as well as the size of each partner affect the collaborative efforts of the partners.
Firms and managers should understand not only the dyadic relationships they are in but also the network structure. Dyadic characteristics affect collaboration, while the network also has effects on the collaboration of partners in vulnerable positions.
The paper points out the role of the network as a countervailing safeguard for dyadic TSIs and network stability. Dyadic relationships are supported by the network.

I think we’ll all agree that the QPR world would be a much poorer place without the work he puts into the previews, articles, reports, etc that help us process the bad times and re-live the good. It opens him up to a lot of unnecessary abuse and grief too but he powers through and I think we’re all very glad he does.
Nice one Clive! Happy Birthday and all that!! Have a good one and I hope to one day be able to get you several drinks as a small token of gratitude for all your hard work and great writing on this site.
This site is incredibly special for all Rs fans worldwide, we are lucky to still be able to visit the ground every home game but there's a huge amount who have moved abroad for mainly family reasons. I can see how important it is for all fans who can't make the games for whatever reason but it's just as important for us who attend regularly and are addicted to all things QPR.
Without wishing to go overboard your journalistic professionalism and your superb sense of humour is superb creating excellent informed content, then we have the Forum which is a very enjoyable "Debating" society.
Quick quiz question... This picture of Ale Faurlin, the shirt he is wearing is that of the promotion season of 2010/11. That year the Football League was sponsored by NPower but on his sleeve he's donning the previous Football League sponsor - Coca-Cola.
Maybe belatedly birthday beatles (Less off-seasons,snaps and gratuitous americanisms, more long bizarre brilliant intros in the next year,please.)

Things haven't gone the way that Disney (NYSE:DIS) planned for its newest ride at Disney World's Epcot. Frozen Ever After opened on Tuesday. The Frozen-themed ride made headlines for its long queue that stretched as long as five hours at one point, but the family friendly indoor boat ride has also proven to be a tough attraction to keep open. Frozen Ever After has had prolonged outages in each of its four days of operation.
That's bad news for guests who planned early summer vacations, hoping to catch attractions like Frozen Ever After, and the Rivers of Light nighttime show at Animal Kingdom that has yet to open. The same can be said at Comcast's (NASDAQ:CMCSA) Islands of Adventure, where the originally slated June reopening for the retracked and slightly rethemed The Incredible Hulk roller coaster won't happen until later this summer. Skull Island: Reign of Kong has opened sporadically for guests in the afternoons, but without an official announcement for a grand-opening date.
Disney and Comcast have stumbled in June, and they're being quiet about their shortcomings. Disney -- which is typically pretty chatty about new attractions on its official parks blog -- has yet to publish an entry about Frozen Ever After's opening. It could be waiting for the ride to operate reliably, but who knows when that will happen.
Comcast's Islands of Adventure was supposed to have a social media event on Wednesday, encouraging pass holders to enter for a chance to attend a mixer at Skull Island: Reign of Kong. However, it quietly pulled the event without informing the entrants if they had been selected.
It's been a rough few days in Orlando for various other reasons, but horrific area events don't explain why the country's two largest theme-park operators have been fumbling during the first few weeks of the peak summer travel season.
The cold never bothered me anyway
I'm one of the lucky ones. I'm one of the roughly 30,000 people who have been able to experience Frozen Ever After. I booked my Thursday night FastPass reservations for the attraction that replaced Maelstrom at Epcot's Norway pavilion weeks ago, and it had been down most of the afternoon. It went back up less than an hour before my 6:40 p.m. EDT return time.
The posted standby wait time was 180 minutes. The attendant suggested that our FastPass queue would run closer to 45 minutes, but we were boarding our Viking ship just 20 minutes later.
The ride itself is a crowd pleaser. It features many of Frozen's most popular songs, and the animatronics raise the bar, combining the projected faces used in some of Disney's newer attractions, including the Magic Kingdom's Seven Dwarfs Mine Train, with some of the more-fluid movements that you will see in robotics. The climactic approach to Elsa's ice palace as she belts out "Let It Go" with her arms swinging realistically will impress you as it mesmerizes your child or inner child.
Do you wanna build a new ride?
Maelstrom fans will find the ride's circuit very familiar. It's essentially the same ride system as the ride it replaced, with the extended queue winding to the left instead of to the right -- so you board the same Viking ship as before in the old disembarking platform. The ride's theatrics are impressive, but it didn't seem as if it would take 20 months of downtime between Maelstrom and Frozen Ever After to make this happen. The lengthy gap between the two rides makes this week's operating hiccups even harder to fathom.
A day at a Disney World park isn't cheap, and on Thursday afternoon, it wasn't the only ride malfunctioning. At one point, a little past 5 p.m. EDT, both of the World Showcase rides were down, as well as Test Track and half of the Mission Space modules. The move pushed wait times higher across the other remaining rides, including a 130-minute posted wait for Mission Space's more-intense experience.
This isn't the first time that Disney has tried to raise the bar -- as it's doing with Frozen's animatronics -- only to flop in terms of uptime. Test Track also experienced plenty of downtime during its early years. It's particularly challenging with Frozen Ever After because the ride's capacity is low, reportedly close to just 1,000 guests an hour, when it's running at peak efficiency.
The long wait times may be generating free publicity for Disney World's second-most-visited theme park, and it could help with on-site hotel reservations, because those guests have priority access to FastPass reservations. However, as the stories have turned from exploring long waits to an unfortunate streak of downtime, it goes from hype-building flattery to brand-zapping critiques.
At the other end of the park, Soarin' Around the World -- the updated Soarin' Over California -- is holding up considerably better. The ride opened four days before Frozen Ever After, and Disney's decision to increase its theater capacity by 50% is making one of the park's most-popular attractions more efficient.
That's a good thing. It's nice to see some guests soaring at a healthy clip while others get the cold shoulder on Frozen Ever After. | <urn:uuid:98d3d368-da0b-4629-a703-26122e286968> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://www.fool.com/investing/2016/06/25/disney-worlds-new-ride-has-an-old-problem.aspx?utm_campaign=article&utm_medium=feed&utm_source=foxbusiness | 2020-09-25T10:46:08Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400223922.43/warc/CC-MAIN-20200925084428-20200925114428-00609.warc.gz | en | 0.966054 | 1,086 |
1883 – 1961
František Drtikol (3 March 1883, Příbram – 13 January 1961, Prague) was a Czech photographer of international renown. He is especially known for his characteristically epic photographs, often nudes and portraits
From 1907 to 1910 he had his own studio, until 1935 he operated an important portrait photostudio in Prague on the fourth floor of one of Prague's remarkable buildings, a Baroque corner house at 9 Vodičkova, now demolished. Jaroslav Rössler, an important avant-garde photographer, was one of his pupils. Drtikol made many portraits of very important people and nudes which show development from pictorialism and symbolism to modern composite pictures of the nude body with geometric decorations and thrown shadows, where it is possible to find a number of parallels with the avant-garde works of the period. These are reminiscent of Cubism, and at the same time his nudes suggest the kind of movement that was characteristic of the futurism aesthetic.
He began using paper cut-outs in a period he called "photopurism". These photographs resembled silhouettes of the human form. Later he gave up photography and concentrated on painting. After the studio was sold Drtikol focused mainly on painting, Buddhist religious and philosophical systems. In the final stage of his photographic work Drtikol created compositions of little carved figures, with elongated shapes, symbolically expressing various themes from Buddhism. In the 1920s and 1930s, he received significant awards at international photo salons | <urn:uuid:cc07266f-68fd-4e1d-b100-803e3e0fcf6c> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://www.galerieubetlemskekaple.cz/en/artists/frantisek-drtikol/ | 2020-09-25T10:46:07Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400223922.43/warc/CC-MAIN-20200925084428-20200925114428-00609.warc.gz | en | 0.972362 | 330 |

What about Alexander Calder's story appealed to you?
So many things about Sandy Calder’s story appealed to me, beginning with his struggle with his identity. He didn’t want to be an artist like his parents and grandfather, so he chose to become a scientist. When being an engineer didn’t work out for him and he accepted he was meant to be an artist, Sandy was able to approach art differently. He used his unique insights and skills to invent the mobile and stabile, bringing movement to art in new ways.
What was Calder like as a person?
While he was committed to his art and worked at it every day, Sandy was good humored, witty and full of joie de vivre. As can be seen in his work, Sandy loved bold colors such as red, yellow and blue (as well as black). Later in life, he often wore a red shirt and was a bit overweight, which led some to liken him to another jolly fellow, Santa Claus.
How did you decide to write about him?
I was browsing art books at a bookstore for fun and came across a small mention of Sandy and his work. I went home and wrote a little poem about him and his mobile. As I learned more about his life and work over the next few weeks, the poem grew. Soon I found out that Sandy saw a mobile as a form of poetry, which I took as a good sign that I should write about him.
Q&A Regarding 'Moving Art:
The Story of Alexander Calder'
(Cricket, May/June 2015)
Early on, I’d used italics and spaces between words to suggest movement. Happily, in the published piece, the word “movement” remains italicized at the moment that Sandy seized upon it for his mobiles, which makes me smile every time I see it. For me, it’s both a summation of Sandy’s contribution and a reminder of my own journey in relation to his story.
With Sandy Calder’s stabile “Young Woman and Her Suitors” outside the Detroit Institute of the Arts (DIA) in October 2013. Completed in 1970, the abstract sculpture stands 35 feet and weighs 17 tons. Though it doesn't move like a mobile, a stabile suggests movement and encourages people to move around it.
“When being an engineer didn’t work out for him and he accepted he was meant to be an artist, Sandy was able to approach art differently. He used his unique insights and skills to invent the mobile and stabile, bringing movement to art in new ways.”
The Petersen Automotive Museum in Los Angeles, reopened in December 2015 after renovation, includes a new exhibit of cars painted by artists. Sandy Calder started the trend of transforming BMWs into art with this vibrant 1975 design.
Have you seen Calder's work in person?
Thankfully, yes. In 2013 I enjoyed a visiting exhibit of his work at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA). I had already completed my piece, but I went back and added a note about how his pieces cast shadows, something that I’d found out from seeing the work for myself. I've also come across a couple stabiles, including the one above outside an art gallery.
How can someone learn more about Calder?
The Calder Foundation, a nonprofit organization run by Sandy’s grandson Alexander Rower and made up of other Calder family members and art experts, is an excellent source of information about Sandy’s life and work. Their website and media interviews were helpful to me with my research. (The website now even includes four short films of Sandy engaging with his artwork.) The foundation was also gracious enough to review my manuscript for accuracy and to authorize the use of Sandy’s art with my piece in Cricket.
I also recommend the following books about Sandy:
For adults, editors Stephanie Barron and Lisa Gabrielle Mark compiled several insightful critical texts about Sandy and his work, along with a thorough if abbreviated biography in Calder and Abstraction: From Avant-Garde to Iconic (Prestel USA, 2013).
Jean Lipman and Ruth Wolfe’s Calder’s Universe (Running Press, 1989) contains a wonderfully large collection of photos of his artwork.
Also by Jean Lipman, as well as Margaret Apsinwall, Alexander Calder and His Magical Mobiles (Hudson Hills Press, 1981) is a well-researched book for younger readers.
A fun book that gives readers of all ages a sense of Sandy the man and artist at work is Calder at Home: The Joyous Environment of Alexander Calder by Pedro E. Guerrero (Tabori & Chang, 1998).
Fortunately, Sandy Calder's work can be found in art galleries and public spaces around the world. If you get a chance to check it out, I highly recommend you do.

Eighteen months ago, “The Rise of the Reluctant Innovator” hit the shelves. The product of a combination of donations, crowdfunding, ten inspiring innovators, an editor with too much time on his hands, and an engaged publisher, the book was always something of an experiment. Tales of people innovating ‘outside the system’ – people with little by way of resources or money, and often without qualification or permission – just getting on with fixing social ills that deeply bothered them seemed like stories the world needed to hear.
Today, it looks like I may have underestimated the number of people who wanted to hear them.
Professional book reviews are hard to get, particularly when you self publish. But the couple we got were great (here’s one). Amazon reviews were even better – standing today at 43 and counting, and all five star reviews bar a couple. It even topped Amazon’s “Development Studies” charts for a while. All of this, of course, in addition to the couple-of-dozen fantastic post-publication endorsements we got.
Interestingly, universities and colleges around the world quickly started picking up on the book as it found its way into numerous social innovation and ICT4D classes. For me, this has been the biggest positive for the book. One typical response appeared on Amazon:
Stories for every college campus
Ken Banks has collected a volume of stories here that need to be told on every college campus. College campuses are at this moment unique seedbeds of opportunity. Populated with “Millennial Searchers” who, in increasing numbers, tell us they define life success in terms of meaning, purpose, and making a difference, and shaped by the larger movements of social entrepreneurship and sustainability, college curricula have begun shifting towards educating students to become agents for change.
What our change agents need above all right now is not more information, but stories – stories that the move them from paralysis and despair in the face of social disintegration and ecological loss to actions shaped by courage, humor, and hope. These stories do this. And because they inject so much of the raw, the uncertain, and the unformed portion of reality into their tales they are stories on which students will clamber for in the face of the challenges of their generation.
These stories speak eloquently about power – the power of connections, the power in confronting power structures for the sake of the marginal, the power of serendipity, the power of the human spirit to overcome immense challenges and work towards transformation and justice. In doing so, they function as a calling to that part of ourselves that will recreate and restore human and natural communities, that bears witness to our capacity for both good and ill, and that remembers the full range of ingenuity and wisdom we possess individually and as a species.
Wendy Petersen Boring, co-editor, “Teaching Sustainability: Perspectives from the Humanities and Social Sciences”
Over the past few months it’s become increasingly clear that I ought to make more of the book. So I started speaking to an international publisher, and am delighted to share news that I’ve now been offered a full publishing deal to release a new, revised and re-worked “Rise of the Reluctant Innovator” early next year (though the title will need to change to something a little more search-engine-friendly, apparently).
Over the summer I’ll be working with the existing chapter contributors, and some new ones, putting a little more structure around each of their stories. The essence of the book will remain the same, but we’ll make it more useful to students of social entrepreneurship and social innovation. We’ve already learnt that our approach is a little unique, and that it stands out from other books which are often dominated by theory and stuffy concepts. Ever since I started inviting FrontlineSMS users to write about their work and experiences using the software way back in 2005, I’ve been increasingly convinced that people are primarily motivated and inspired by raw stories of innovation.

Harman Kardon has teased its upcoming Cortana-integrated connected smart speaker with a product page that revealed a little more about the device's design and features.
The web page for the Invoke speaker appears to have been removed since it was spotted by Thurrott.com this morning, but it offered a better glimpse at the device's sloping cylindrical design, which appears to fall somewhere in between the Amazon Echo and Google Home.
The light ring at the top of the speaker will be familiar to users of Microsoft's Cortana voice-activated assistant, while pictures suggest touch-based controls could involve rotating the upper ridge. Elsewhere, the mesh grille indicates the device's expected ability to project high-quality audio over 360 degrees.
Perhaps the most notable feature of the Invoke speaker is voice calling, which the Echo and Google Home do not currently support, although the Harman Kardon device does appear to rely on Skype for this capability.
No pricing was given on the product page, but the Invoke speaker is being marketed as a premium alternative to its rivals, so it's unlikely to be cheap. The device is expected to launch this fall.
Apple is rumored to be close to launching its own voice-driven smart speaker with Siri functionality and AirPlay support. The device is said to have a Mac Pro-like concave top with built-in controls and could possibly run a modified version of iOS. The product could be unveiled as early as next month at WWDC. Amazon is also said to be working on a next-generation Echo with a built-in screen and phone calling features.
In related news today, research firm eMarketer revealed the results of a study that shows Amazon is dominating the nascent market for voice-controlled speakers. The company's Echo range of devices will claim a 70.6 percent share of the U.S. market this year, the study found, while Google Home will come a distant second with 23.8 percent share, with the rest of the market shared between less successful offerings from other tech companies.
The number of active U.S. users will more than double for the devices this year, to 35.6 million, eMarketer said. | <urn:uuid:9a9f2829-360c-4709-84e1-add6e6ddc831> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://www.macrumors.com/2017/05/08/cortana-smart-speaker-harmon-kardon/ | 2020-09-25T11:03:23Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400223922.43/warc/CC-MAIN-20200925084428-20200925114428-00609.warc.gz | en | 0.960342 | 450 |

There is no need to wash out the roof entirely, remember eliminating one inch of ice will be just like removing 5 pounds. Drain gutters and downspouts can lead to ice dams, which will prevent the melting water from leaving a roof. Adding insulation to attic flooring will prevent heat from escaping, which in turn will protect the roof from creating ice dams on the roof. Cleaning your gutters bi-annually will discourage the formation of ice dams. Before the first snow fall eliminate all leaves, twigs and debris the fall creates. By creating ways for water to readily depart from your roof, you will prevent ice formation from incorporating any trying weight to your roofs construction.

“Sir Arthur John Gielgud, OM, CH was an English actor, director, and producer. A descendant of the renowned Terry acting family, he achieved early international acclaim for his youthful, emotionally expressive Hamlet which broke box office records on Broadway in 1937. He was known for his beautiful speaking of verse and particularly for his warm and expressive voice, which his colleague Sir Alec Guinness likened to ‘a silver trumpet muffled in silk’. Gielgud is one of the few entertainers who have won an Oscar, Emmy, Grammy, and Tony Award.”

Costa Rica Okays New Moin Container Terminal
The Supreme Court of Costa Rica has ruled in favor of the Costa Rican Government and APM Terminals in an appeal filed by the port workers union against the 33-year concession contract for the new Moin Container Terminal (TCM) in Limon on the Caribbean coast of Costa Rica, APM terminals says in a release.
Paul Gallie, Managing Director of APM Terminals for Central America, said: “The new Moin Container Terminal is a project of the Costa Rican State which will promote the country’s global competitiveness and the socioeconomic development of the province of Limón, which is why this verdict motivates us and strengthens our confidence in the judicial system.”
APM Terminals was contracted by the State and port authority, JAPDEVA, for the design, finance, construction, operation and maintenance of the new Moin Container Terminal. This project, which is designed with a surface area of 80 hectares, 500 m off the coast of Moin, 1500 m of berth, 9 STS gantry cranes and 39 yard cranes, in addition to a 2.2 km breakwater, will be wholly owned by the State of Costa Rica.
The TCM is a key component of JAPDEVA’s master plan to modernize the Caribbean port complex of Limon/Moin, including a cruise ship terminal, a general cargo terminal in addition to the expansion of the petroleum terminal managed by RECOPE, the latter already underway.
In September, APM Terminals delivered to the environmental agency, SETENA, the final extensive information annex requested by the institution in order to complete the Environmental and Social Impact Assessment process. SETENA’s final ruling is expected by the end of October. | <urn:uuid:10160a75-f021-432f-afca-535874ec6dd6> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://www.offshore-energy.biz/costa-rica-okays-new-moin-container-terminal/ | 2020-09-25T10:44:35Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400223922.43/warc/CC-MAIN-20200925084428-20200925114428-00609.warc.gz | en | 0.914406 | 366 |

The revolutionary RMGT Tandem Perfector prints medium and high page counts at speeds rivaling commercial half-web presses with superlative image reproduction. Its exclusive three-cylinder transfer system (called a translink unit) passes backside printed sheets to the front-side units without tumbling the sheets, helping achieve flawless unit-to-unit, side-to-side register and color matching.
Ceramic jackets on all impression cylinders after the translink unit eliminate scratches, dirt and other imperfections in solid print areas. The same leading edge gripper is maintained throughout the run so color matching is more consistent, unit-to-unit and side-to-side. And because the Tandem Perfector does not require as wide a gripper margin as a convertible perfector, it saves one sheet for every 70 sheets run, or 1,428 sheets for a 100,000-sheet run.

Maybe you remember, a couple of years ago when the Space Shuttle Endeavour made its way to the California Science Center in LA.
It was flown in on the back of a 747 and slowly moved through the city. Trees had to be uprooted to fit it down streets, which were also shut to traffic, But it was a huge event as thousands of people came out to look at what was happening.
Well, LA will get to experience another shuttle related trip. That's because the California Science Center will also be getting the last remaining shuttle fuel tank. And it's being transported all of the way from Louisiana.
Jeffrey Rudolph, the President of the California Science Center, joins A Martinez to talk about what it'll take to bring the huge fuel tank to the CSC. | <urn:uuid:509d05f2-61c7-4285-8d1d-3e9f78c16917> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://www.scpr.org/programs/take-two/2015/05/29/43053/california-science-center-to-get-space-shuttle-fue/ | 2020-09-25T10:54:45Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400223922.43/warc/CC-MAIN-20200925084428-20200925114428-00609.warc.gz | en | 0.984753 | 160 |
22-year-old killed by train early Monday
A 22-year-old man is dead, struck by a train as he attempted to cross the railroad tracks at the at-grade crossing on East German Street in Shepherdstown early Monday morning. The name of victim has not been released, pending notification of next of kin.
Shepherdstown Police Officer Sgt. David Ransom is the lead investigator into the incident. He says the victim was struck as he tried to beat the northbound train across the tracks, which are owned and operated by the Norfolk Southern Railway Company.
Emergency units were notified of the incident around 2:39 a.m. by the engineers on the train, according to police and railroad officials. Responding to the scene were units from the Shepherdstown Police Department, the Shepherdstown Volunteer Fire Department, Jefferson County Sheriff’s Office, Shepherd University Police Department and the Harpers Ferry Police Department.
This reporter, who lives near the scene of the incident, witnessed first responders as they discovered the body, which was found laying in the gravel track bed on the west side of the railroad, north of German Street, near a green chain link fence on the property of the Shepherdstown train station. According to police, the crossing gates were functioning as normal at the time of the accident. Police have yet to interview the engineer of the train.
Upon discovering the body, officials cordoned off the area and began their investigation into the incident. Investigators grappled with heavy rains as they conducted their investigation, forcing them to set up a tarp over the scene to keep dry. By 3:45 a.m., the train, which had been stopped, departed, heading north. At 4:46 a.m., the body was removed from the scene and transported to the morgue at Jefferson Memorial Hospital.
Investigators have left the scene, but the accident remains under investigation by the Shepherdstown Police Department and the Norfolk Southern Police Department.
According to Norfolk Southern spokesman Robin Chapman, the engineers aboard the train during the accident continued on to Hagerstown where they were interviewed by railway police at Norfolk Southern’s Hagerstown offices.
“It’s a tragedy for the family and our sympathies go out to the family,” said Chapman in a telephone interview on Monday morning. He urged the public to heed rail signals at crossings. “People need to be alert, trains can come at anytime”, said Chapman.

UPDATE – 7:28 a.m. – The Shepherdstown Police Department issued a press release on the incident which reveals that the victim was 22 years of age. It reads in whole:
“On Monday, January 2010 at about 2:39 a.m., the Shepherdstown Police Department was notified of a pedestrian struck by a train in the area of the railroad crossing located on East German Street near Audrey Egle Drive [and South Mill Street]. A 22 year old man was deceased at the scene.
The preliminary investigation shows that the male was attemtping to cross the tracks at that location at the time of the accident.
Officers from the Harpers Ferry Police Department, Jefferson County Sheriff’s Office and the Shepherd University Police Department assisted at the scene along with the Shepherdstown Volunteer Fire Department.

A 36-year-old man is charged in connection with a car crash that caused a Jeep to spin out of control and killed a woman in a wheelchair who was on the side of the road waiting to cross the street.
The 36-year old man of Boynton Beach, Indian River County is charged with vehicular homicide, a first-degree misdemeanor. The charge was filed and an arraignment date has not yet been set.

AN earthquake rocked northern Italy today in the region worst hit by the coronavirus outbreak.
The 4.3 magnitude quake struck near Coli in Emilia-Romagna, around 29 miles northeast of Genoa.
⚠️ Read our coronavirus live blog for the latest news & updates
The quake was recorded at 11.42am local time at a depth of only two miles - meaning it was felt more powerfully on the surface.
Tremors were reportedly felt in Milan to the north and were recorded as far away as Switzerland, Austria, France and Leichtenstein.
Emilia-Romagna and neighbouring Lombardy have borne the brunt of Italy's devastating Covid-19 outbreak which has so far claimed more than 23,000 lives. | <urn:uuid:2ae92971-eda9-4a6b-a4ac-ffb3874d3edc> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://www.the-sun.com/news/691012/italy-earthquake-coronavirus/ | 2020-09-25T11:20:49Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400223922.43/warc/CC-MAIN-20200925084428-20200925114428-00609.warc.gz | en | 0.969796 | 157 |
featured in Newshound on 29 July 2014John Coulter with one of his regular Irish Daily Star columns. It
An independent Scotland will not result in Irish unity.
The Achilles' Heel in Scottish First Minister Alex Salmond's dream of a Yes victory in September's independence referendum is that a Scottish republic would be part of the rapidly failing European Union.
The rise of Nigel Farage's anti-EU Ukip suggests the majority of Brits will vote to leave the EU in the planned 2017 In/Out referendum.
Given traditional Euro-skeptic support in Ireland, north and south, the Brits will want a nation to team up with when what's left of the UK dumps the EU.
A Scottish republic will become the EU whipping boy. Scots must vote to leave all the Unions, both the UK and EU.
Otherwise, by the end of this decade, Scotland will be going bonnet in hand to Brussels asking for bailout money in the same way the Dáil had to plead for euro millions to keep the Irish economy afloat.
Even if Scotland votes to remain in the Union, London will make those naughty Scottish nationalists pay heavily in new taxes for daring to defy Westminster rule.
The race is tight in the polls – around 10% dividing Yes and No camps – so the Old Firm voters of Rangers and Celtic could decide the outcome.
Unless, of course, the Brits are planning a series of regional English parliaments as part of an 'England Alone' policy.
The Scotland referendum comes slap bang in the middle of commemorations to mark the centenary of the start of the Great War in 1914.
The pro-Union camp will counter the memories of previous Scottish victories at Stirling and Bannockburn with images of the role and sacrifice of Scots at the Somme, Ypres and Cambrai – some of the bloodiest battles of World War One.
This same pro-Commonwealth lobby in the London Establishment will be using identical tactics with the Irish Republic by reminding Southerners of the sacrifice which thousands of Irish nationalists made in the Great War, too.
It will be a case of 'Okay, you can remember those who died in the failed Easter Rising, but a lasting tribute to the dead, wounded and those from Ireland who served in the Great War would be for the Republic to rejoin the Commonwealth!'.
From now until 2018 and the centenary of World War One ending, stand by for a palace-load of English royals invading the South to ram this Commonwealth message home.
With Sinn Féin on the rise again, many non-Shinner Southern nationalists may be taking the political view – better to rule in Hell than serve in Heaven! Or, better to rule in Commonwealth Hell than serve with Shinners in Dáil Heaven!
Shinner guns can be spiked if the Dáil joins forces with Westminster to push a Commonwealth solution, especially if England faces the threat of Islamic radicals setting up Sharia law communities in Britain.
With the Anglican Communion losing ground in numbers to radical Islam in England, could the long-term plan be for a future King Billy to relocate the Blue Bloods in Ireland?
Dump the Scots and EU, keep the Northern Unionists and Welsh in check, and set up a new Christian home in Ireland.

After last week's really dry trip into Mandale on a really wet night, tonight was dry (weather-wise) and clear, but only five turned out. But five's plenty for what we had in mind! We started with Plunge Hole. COTPD implies you need two ladders, so I took two, but one 10m ladder was more than enough. After we all dropped the pitch, we went into the chamber, and explored both ways on before returning to the surface.
Stanley Moor Caves
No less than 11 people turned out for tonight's jaunt - 6 TSG, 4 Crewe and 1 Eldon. I never realised that Stanley Moor caves were so popular! After a long cold trip into Speedwell this morning (and part of the early afternoon) doing a variety of jobs, I was looking for some more active caving, and I certainly wasn't disappointed. It had been quite a few years since my last visit - could I even remember the way? | <urn:uuid:d8b877f8-68ff-477e-845e-57d6c9d7a032> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://www.tsgcaving.co.uk/cave/stanley-moor-caves | 2020-09-25T10:43:47Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400223922.43/warc/CC-MAIN-20200925084428-20200925114428-00609.warc.gz | en | 0.987543 | 204 |
Via is working hard to make it easier, faster, and more economical to travel around San Antonio. These efforts can be summed up in their VIA Smartmove initiatives. VIA needed a scalable, easy to manage website to get the word out. That’s where Vuepoint came in.
The VIA Smartmove website is organized into seven different “initiatives.” These initiatives each have their own sub sections, including meetings, resources, news, and a gallery. All of which can be managed through a customized WordPress based backend. VIA employees can even add entirely new initiatives without touching a bit of code.
In addition to an easy to use backend, the VIA Smartmove website was custom designed to be easily browsable on all devices, including desktop computers, tablets, and smartphones. Since a large portion of VIA’s visitors are mobile users, having a “responsive” design was critical for easy browsing while only having one website to maintain. | <urn:uuid:5ccfbf6b-cfd9-4a56-a581-fa7a4127df49> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://www.vuepointagency.com/work/via-smartmove-improving-san-antonios-mass-transportation/ | 2020-09-25T09:42:58Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400223922.43/warc/CC-MAIN-20200925084428-20200925114428-00609.warc.gz | en | 0.953262 | 204 |

Kevin-Prince Boateng pronunciation (pronounced [ˈkɛvɪn pʁɪns bo.aˈtɛŋ]; born 6 March 1987), also known by his short name Prince, is a German-born Ghanaian professional footballer who currently plays for Eintracht Frankfurt.
A midfielder who can also play as a forward, Boateng is known for his strength, footspeed and ball-juggling tricks. A 2014 profile on FIFA’s official website described Boateng as “blessed with strength, speed, killer instinct in front of goal, and an uncommon flamboyance in the attacking third.”
- Reinickendorfer Füchse
Boateng started his club career with the club Reinickendorfer Füchse in early 1994 at age six prior to signing for Hertha BSC on 1 July 1994 at the age of seven, first playing for them to 31 July 2007 when he was 20 years old.
Early time with Hertha BSC
Hertha BSC II
After emerging from the Hertha feeder teams, Boateng played for Hertha BSC II for two seasons. He was promoted to the Hertha first team squad in the 2005–06 season.
Boateng made his first team debut in a 2–0 win against Eintracht Frankfurt in the second round of the 2005–06 Bundesliga season on 13 August 2005 at the Olympic Stadium, being brought on at the beginning of the second half.
Boateng was awarded the Fritz Walter Bronze Medal Award in the Under-18 category in 2005. Boateng started his first Bundesliga match in a 2–2 draw against Borussia Mönchengladbach in the 14th round of the Bundesliga season.
On 27 July 2006, Boateng was awarded the Fritz Walter Gold Medal in the Under-19 category.
Tottenham Hotspur and Borussia Dortmund
Boateng signed a four-year contract with Tottenham Hotspur in July 2007 for a reported £5.4 million, securing him ahead of UEFA Cup holders Sevilla. His success at the club was limited, and he was loaned to Borussia Dortmund in January 2009 for the remainder of the season.
He made ten Bundesliga appearances during his loan, but was forced to miss the final two matches of the season for a suspension of four matches imposed by the German Football Association (DFB) following a tough challenge and “no-nonsense flying kick” to the head of VfL Wolfsburg’s Makoto Hasebe.
Dortmund were eager to sign Boateng permanently at the end of the season, but financial constraints prevented them from doing so.
English Premier League club Portsmouth signed Boateng on a three-year contract in August 2009 for a reported fee of around £4 million. On 12 September 2009, he scored his first goal for the club against Bolton Wanderers, and was named Portsmouth’s joint Player of the Month. He finished his only season at the club with three goals in 22 Premier League games as they were relegated amidst financial disarray.
In May 2010, Portsmouth played Chelsea in the FA Cup Final, which Chelsea won 1–0. During the match, Boateng fouled Chelsea midfielder Michael Ballack, injuring Ballack’s ankle and ruling him out of the impending 2010 World Cup. Boateng claimed that Ballack slapped him in the face prior to this, and that he apologised to Ballack personally for the tackle which left him injured.
Boateng called the German media and the German national team players hypocrites for backing Ballack whilst ignoring his slap on the pitch. Boateng also criticised Joachim Löw for protecting Ballack after he slapped striker Lukas Podolski in a German national football team training match the previous year.
Genoa and Milan
On 17 August 2010, Boateng transferred to Italian Serie A club Genoa on a three-year contract for €5.75 million, (a reported €5.7 million plus the transfer of Anthony Vanden Borre, despite the latter deal falling-through) and then immediately joined Milan on loan. The deal later became a co-ownership deal in the same transfer window for €5.25 million. Milan signed Boateng permanently from Genoa in June 2011 for €7 million on a four-year contract due to expire in June 2015.
On 23 October 2011, Boateng came on as a half-time substitute against Lecce and scored three goals in 14 minutes. Milan had been 3–0 down at half-time, but went on to win the game 4–3. Boateng is only the second player in the history of Serie A to score a hat-trick after coming on as a substitute. The hat-trick was the fastest in Serie A since David Trezeguet scored a ten-minute hat-trick for Juventus in 2001.
On 3 January 2013, Milan was playing Italian Lega Pro 2 side Pro Patria in a mid-season friendly when Boateng and several other Milan players were the targets of racist chanting from a section of the Pro Patria crowd. Boateng reacted by kicking the ball into the stands before leaving the pitch, and was followed off by his teammates. The match was subsequently abandoned. His decision to walk off the pitch was later backed by various players and commentators.
On 20 February, Boateng scored the opening goal for Milan against Barcelona in the 2012–13 UEFA Champions League round of 16 first leg, which Milan went on to win 2–0. In August 2013, he was quoted as saying he had changed his style since signing for Milan, from playing primarily as a defensive midfielder to adopting the role of trequartista.
On 30 August 2013, Milan announced that Boateng had been transferred to German Bundesliga club Schalke 04 for a €10 million transfer fee on a four-year contract due to expire in June 2017.
Boateng made his debut for Schalke 04 in a 2–0 victory against Bayer Leverkusen. On 14 September 2013, he scored the winning goal for Schalke 04 in a 1–0 win over Mainz 05. On 30 October 2013, Boateng was voted the Schalke 04 player of the month for October 2013 by fans. On 9 November 2013, Boateng scored two goals against Werder Bremen; Schalke 04 won the match 3–1. Boateng scored seven Bundesliga goals over the season as Schalke finished in third place.
On 11 May 2015, Boateng, alongside Sidney Sam and Marco Höger, was suspended indefinitely from the club in the aftermath of a defeat against 1. FC Köln as a result of poor behaviour which claimed to have led to the club’s poor domestic performances.
His contract with Schalke was terminated on 8 December 2015.
Return to Milan
As Schalke 04 terminated his contract in December 2015, Boateng re-joined Milan on 5 January 2016. The transfer was free and Boateng signed a six-month contract. He was training with Milan since his suspension in September 2015. He made his official return debut on 9 January 2016, playing 36 minutes against Roma in a 1–1 draw and scored his first goal in his first match back at the San Siro six days later against Fiorentina in a 2–0 win.
On 25 May 2016, club owner Silvio Berlusconi announced Boateng’s departure, along with those of Alex, Philippe Mexès and Mario Balotelli.
On 2 August 2016, Spanish La Liga club Las Palmas announced that they had reached an agreement with Boateng for his signature following his release from Milan. He made his debut on 22 August 2016 in a 4–2 away win against Valencia at the Mestalla Stadium. On 24 October Boateng scored a goal against Villarreal which was regarded by some pundits as one of the best goals of La Liga that year.
On 16 August 2017, Las Palmas announced that Boateng had cancelled his contract by the club by mutual consent, citing “irreversible personal reasons” for the decision.
On 18 August 2017, Boateng completed his move to Eintracht Frankfurt on a three-year deal.
Youth international career
Boateng holds a German passport, previously playing for the Germany national youth team. His long-distance goal for the under-19 team in a 2005 UEFA European Under-19 Football Championship match against Greece – which Germany won 3–0 – was voted Goal of the Month by viewers of a German Das Erste TV sports show.
In 2007, Berliner Morgenpost reported that then Germany under-21 coach Dieter Eilts would no longer select him and other team players due to a curfew that had been broken in the team’s camp during the June 2007 Toulon Tournament in France. In February 2009, Boateng was called up to the Germany U21 team by new coach Horst Hrubesch for the international match against the Republic of Ireland in Cork. Hrubesch selected Boateng in the preliminary U21 squad for the 2009 UEFA European Under-21 Football Championship in Sweden in June 2009.
In June 2009, Boateng told the German authorities that he was no longer interested in representing Germany.
Senior international career
Switch to Ghana
Boateng received a Ghanaian passport on 7 May 2010, and has said that he feels more Ghanaian, which enabled him to switch his allegiance to Ghana in May 2010, and begin his senior international football career by attending training with the national side, “The Black Stars,” that same month at the Accra Sports Stadium in Greater Accra prior the 2010 World Cup. Boateng made his debut in a 1–0 victory over Latvia in June 2010.
2006 World Cup
In 2006, the Ghana Football Association had been in contact with Boateng on him representing the Ghana ahead of the 2006 World Cup. But the process under which FIFA had to decide on his eligibility would be long, as Boateng was past the age under the old FIFA rules where old youth internationals could switch allegiance. FIFA’s decision to reverse the rules in 2009 had given Boateng the green light to switch his allegiance, and time appeared to be running out when his clearance to represent the Black Stars had still not arrived at the beginning of May 2010.
2010 World Cup
Boateng was selected as part of the Ghana squad for the 2010 World Cup in South Africa by head coach Milovan Rajevac, to fill in for the injured Michael Essien alongside defensive midfielder Anthony Annan. On 23 June, he was selected to start in Ghana’s game against Germany, whose team included his brother Jérôme Boateng. Ghana held Germany to a 60th-minute lone goal and 1–0 win. It was the first time that two brothers played on opposite teams at the World Cup. Boateng picked up the ball from the half-way line, dribbled it “rapidly bamboozling” his opponents before scoring with a left-footed shot from outside the penalty area in the fourth minute of a 2–1 win over the United States in the round-of-16 in Rustenburg’s Royal Bafokeng Sports Palace on 26 June.
In November 2011, Boateng announced his international retirement, citing fatigue from travel at the age of 24 years, thus missing the chance to contest the 2012 Africa Cup of Nations. In September 2012, Marseille’s Ghanaian striker and close friend André Ayew revealed that Boateng was considering reversing his decision to retire, but he did not play in the 2013 Africa Cup of Nations either.
2014 World Cup
On 1 October 2013, Boateng was selected for Ghana’s 2014 FIFA World Cup qualification play-offs against Egypt. On 4 November 2013, he came on as a 79th-minute substitute in the second leg and scored Ghana’s only goal in the 89th minute as the Black Stars secured qualification for the 2014 World Cup in Brazil.
On 2 June 2014, Boateng was named in Ghana’s squad for the World Cup finals. In the team’s opening match, he came on as a second-half substitute against the United States in a 2–1 defeat. He was then selected to start against Germany in a 2–2 draw, playing against his brother again.
On 26 June, Boateng was sent home and suspended from the Ghana squad for disciplinary reasons, only hours before the final group match against Portugal, after he was alleged to have verbally abused former manager James Kwesi Appiah during a team meeting. Boateng was sent home along with midfielder Sulley Muntari. On 29 June, Boateng had hit back at the Ghana Football Association, describing the Black Stars’ organisation during the tournament as “amateurish”.
Style of play
Boateng is a quick, dynamic, physically strong and well-rounded midfielder, known for his aggression, eye for goal, long-range shooting ability, flair and dribbling skills. His game has a particular dependence on “sheer strength, power and energy.” He can produce the work rate, ball retrieval and attacking willingness of the box-to-box midfielder. He combines technical skill with speed of action which makes him more dangerous. Boateng has been utilised in many midfield positions throughout his career, but usually plays either in the centre in a box-to-box role, or as an attacking midfielder or forward; He has also been deployed as a false-attacking midfielder on occasion. In addition to his playing ability, Boateng is known for his acrobatic goal celebrations, and often celebrates scoring goals with a backflip.

Boateng was born in Berlin. His mother, Christine Rahn, is German and his father is from Ghana. He is the older, paternal half-brother of fellow professional footballer Jérôme Boateng. He is divorced from his first wife Jenny with whom he has a son, Jermaine-Prince. He is engaged to Italian model Melissa Satta, and the pair have a child, Maddox Prince, born 15 April 2014.
Boateng is multiracial and has a tattoo of the map of Ghana and the country’s name on his arm — a visible link to his Ghanaian heritage. Across his ribs, he has the Chinese words for clan, health, love, success and trust, and he has other tattoos on his upper body.
In February 2013, Boateng was appointed as the first global ambassador for the FIFA anti-discrimination taskforce, to work alongside FIFA Vice-President Jeffrey Webb at FIFA headquarters. In March, Boateng presented FIFA President Sepp Blatter with his first phase of solutions to ending global racism in football, as requested by Blatter.
In March 2013, Boateng was named as the United Nations (UN) ambassador for anti-racism. He delivered his first speech in that role accompanied by UN human rights chief Navi Pillay at the United Nations Office at Geneva.
Boateng says he speaks Turkish, German, English and Italian, and understands French and Arabic.
Boateng is a keen singer and dancer, and has said that his singing and dancing idol is Michael Jackson. He enjoys choreography, and singing. As such, Boateng performed a dance routine involving Michael Jackson’s trademarked Moonwalk for a packed-out San Siro of 88,000 spectators upon Milan celebrating their 18th Scudetto, and sang an a cappella live on beIN Sports television to celebrate their eighth birthday. | <urn:uuid:0eec0288-6a57-4886-aea3-06aa916219b5> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://www.xyz.ng/360/people/kevin-prince-boateng-biography-fact-career-awards-net-worth-and-life-story-320945 | 2020-09-25T09:42:09Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400223922.43/warc/CC-MAIN-20200925084428-20200925114428-00609.warc.gz | en | 0.97962 | 3,349 |

Sussin says fire inspectors checked the site before the show by Bethpage, N.Y.-based Bay Fireworks and everything was fine. Sussin says he later heard that other operators reported similar problems with some fireworks. He declined to say which ones or who made them.

THE BENEFITS OF A GOOD SYSTEM
by Dave Pine
A few years ago, we embarked on a process of collecting metrics around what things would make Synapco a better place to work. The whole team was asked to complete a survey questionnaire and, to my surprise, the hands-down winner was having a safe workplace! (I was sure it was going to be better wages and conditions, or better equipment.) This presented me with somewhat of a challenge – the common view of managers I had worked with in the past was that Health and Safety was a nuisance, cost time and money, and contributed nothing, but clearly I would have to change my way of thinking.
The survey result showed me that there was a huge value in staff morale alone. I compiled a checklist of the legal requirements and found that we were lacking in quite a few areas – we had no formalised evacuation plan, unlicensed forklift operators, a total lack of safe operating procedures and no hazard management plan! In spite of this, we had always had a very good history when it came to workplace injuries. No issues or lost time injuries had invited a closer inspection of our operation by OSH, but that was no excuse to continue with the status quo. So, we set about improving plant safety like never before!
As key parts of the system were completed, we got down to the details. Fortunately, our production team were completing their Lean Manufacturing training, which meant there were more improvements made, and it became obvious that there were going to be more pay-offs than I originally expected. I quickly learned that being safe does not mean being slow – in fact, a well set-up work area can be both safer and more productive! I also learnt that it is essential to have the person doing a job involved in the process, not only to get buy-in, but they usually know the best ways to improve processes. We found that every time we implemented a new H&S initiative, there was an unexpected efficiency bonus that came with it, and we are now proud to accept visitors into our factory, knowing that they will be impressed with what they see here.
Eventually the day came when I got a phone call from the local OSH auditor; they would be doing a random workplace inspection the following day. When the auditor arrived, it was apparent that he expected to find a raft of issues and non-compliances, but to his surprise we ticked all the boxes and he walked away giving us a clean bill of health and a commendation! If we hadn’t made the changes, I’m sure there would have been some negative impacts to the business, and a demand to bring it up to standard.
We are fortunate in NZ to have a government that fully supports workplace safety. There are resources available from industry training organizations, which can provide a gap analysis of health and safety within your organisation, and training aids to help you achieve them, generally fully funded.
I suggest you take advantage of what’s on offer, because ultimately it will improve your staff morale and efficiency, enhance your customers’ perception of you, and most importantly, ensure that your staff get to go home at the end of each day. | <urn:uuid:22ca63e5-15bc-4ee1-bf37-2fdf6d1e6bee> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | http://synapco.co.nz/2016/03/07/health-and-safety/ | 2020-09-26T17:11:57Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400244353.70/warc/CC-MAIN-20200926165308-20200926195308-00609.warc.gz | en | 0.986691 | 655 |

Talking Carl is a mildly famous iPhone app in which a vaguely anthropomorphic red blob repeats things you say to it in a funny voice and responds to touches and prods with giggles and yelps. Readers have been sending us quite angry messages about a mysterious recent update to the app which replaced the cheerful Carl with a cardboard box, but it wasn’t immediately obvious exactly what had happened.
The app was originally developed as a collaboration between Yann Le Coroller, a motion designer and graphics expert, and Awyse, a software publisher. TUAW spoke with both Le Coroller and Guillaume Carre, CEO of Awyse, so we could get to the bottom of the story.
Le Coroller told us that he was the initial designer of the app back in 2009 and he approached Awyse for support with getting it to market. He stated that he made “the interaction model, voices and sound design and… directed the dev on a day to day basis for two months” — Awyse hired a contract developer to do the actual coding work. Carre, in contrast, stated that Awyse was the “original designer” of the app and that it merely “licensed the lovely character Carl” and bought the “frame-by-frame [animation] work” from Le Coroller. Clearly, both sides of the story are seeking to downplay the input of the other side here — which is not unexpected, given what comes next.
The app was released in January 2010 for $0.99 and rapidly found a place on many parents’ iOS devices — it’s the sort of software toy that young kids love. The app spent a lot of time in the iTunes top charts and gathered a solid fanbase. Funny Youtube videos were made. All was well with the world.
Throughout 2010, Awyse expanded its product base, adding new apps with more and more variant characters, and late in 2010 they added a prominent in-app ad to Talking Carl advertising these other apps. Le Coroller was unimpressed with the design and animation of these, calling them an “ugly ripoff” of the original Carl. Tensions rose until eventually Awyse tried to drop him from the project altogether. This culminated in a court case in France in which Le Coroller sued Awyse for breach of contract. On February 2nd he won the case, stripping Awyse of its licence to use Carl.
Awyse’s CEO Carre wouldn’t discuss this part of the story with me, saying only that “that is all I can write on Talking Carl. Our lawyers are on it at the moment” (note that neither Carre nor Le Coroller are native English speakers). Le Coroller stated that, to comply with the legal verdict, they removed Carl from the app in an update (replacing him with a literal cardboard cut-out). This is where users started to notice, because they naïvely hit “update all” and found their app — the app they paid for and which, in many cases, was a favourite for their young children — replaced with something that many people felt was inferior. It’s not surprising that people weren’t happy.
Having obtained rights over the app, Le Coroller quickly released a new, free version of Talking Carl as a replacement in the App Store. Shortly after, Apple removed Talking C. from the App Store, but (according to Le Coroller) not before Awyse asked them to pull Le Coroller’s version as being infringing on its IP. Following a conversation between Apple and Le Coroller, the Awyse version was yanked instead, and Le Coroller’s new free version stayed in the store. However, by his own admission this version had “a few bugs and missing functionality” and quickly garnered bad reviews from angry customers who didn’t understand exactly what was going on and simply wanted their app back. To Le Coroller’s credit, he pulled the app, got the problems fixed, and submitted an update to Apple — and to Apple’s credit they gave him an expedited review and the new version is already available in iTunes. This is where the situation now sits, although presumably Awyse are planning further legal action in the future.
Looking beyond the specifics of this story, the idea of content being removed from a paid-for app after it has been published in the App Store represents something of an open question in Apple’s policies — or, indeed, the similar situation where a paid-for app that relies on a web service stops working because the web service goes down (we explored this on TUAW previously.) It’s clearly impractical for Apple’s vetting process to extend so far as to check that all previous functionality is still intact, but at the same time the way iTunes is set up makes it tricky (though not impossible) to roll back to an older version of an app if you object to the latest update.
Here in the UK, Apple are acting as a retailer when you purchase from the App Store and an app that no longer performs as it was sold would probably be regarded as a defective product; our strong consumer protection laws could leave Apple liable for issuing refunds to customers if so. It’s far from clear cut, however. The situation is analogous to when Sony issued a firmware update for the PS3 which removed the “Other OS” feature, and that didn’t result in any criticism from our consumer protection bodies or any penalties for Sony. In the US, it would likely fall to a class-action lawsuit to try and force the matter (as indeed happened with Sony) but when the product in question is a $0.99 app rather than a $400 games console it’s difficult to see anyone caring enough to take it that far.
What do you think, readers? Because Yann Le Coroller has generously made his new version of the app available for free, no-one has lost out here. But suppose for a moment he hadn’t, and everyone who’d paid a buck for Talking Carl now had an inferior version — or even no version at all, as Apple have taken Awyse’s version out of the Store. In that case, should all those original purchasers be entitled to refunds from Apple? | <urn:uuid:364d0b48-c4c9-4ef5-b558-dfaa4f794594> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | http://www.iphone-my.com/news/talking-carl-app-has-been-hijacked-report-angry-users | 2020-09-26T17:31:48Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400244353.70/warc/CC-MAIN-20200926165308-20200926195308-00609.warc.gz | en | 0.969057 | 1,329 |

How to Filet a Mahi-Mahi
One trick after catching the fish is to dispatch it mercifully with a shot of tequila or vodka in the gills, rather than beating the fish over the head. Some people drag it in the water to let it bleed out but there is some risk a bigger fish, such as a shark, will eat it.
Most importantly make sure the filet knife is very sharp. Cut away in a motion from hands. Be very careful so knife does not slip. The process once practiced only takes about 10 minutes.
The two videos below illustrate the process.

Not yet available for the everyday Joes or Janes of the world, Microsoft is shipping developer kits for their Hololens to the earliest of adopters. It’s an exciting step in getting us closer to a mixed reality experience.
Backup… what was that?
Here’s a little secret, they’re all part of the same ecosystem. The lines between them are blurry. You can expect those lines to get more blurry soon. In fact, the Hololens is part of that blurriness.
Microsoft’s Hololens may not mean the immediate end to TV as we know it, but it may get people out of their homes more. First, what the heck is it?
What is the Hololens?
Like many of our existing virtual reality headsets, Hololens sits across the user’s eyes. Whereas other (VR) headsets tend to block out the outside world, creating an entire world for you to navigate, Hololens brings elements into your real world.
Not actually, of course. We’re nowhere near the technology to manifest physical objects from thin air, but we can graft holographic 3D images onto what you see.
You can even interact with those objects, push buttons and more. The great thing about holographic objects is they can’t affect the real world. You could throw a holographic vase at your aunt, but she’d never know it unless she was wearing a Hololens too.
In the augmented world of the Hololens, haptic feedback will likely come later, using wearables like the Gloveone. This just means that you won’t feel the actual vase in your hand. You will see the vase picked up by your hands, virtually.
Does Hololens mean the end of 2D?
It’s hard to say for sure, but TVs have been shrinking for years. They’re paper thin, small enough to ride on our wrists. It only stands to reasons that the next step for displays is to disappear.
Sound silly? Maybe, but so is orienting furniture around hardware. We used to set up furniture to facilitate conversation between people.
We also used to live without computers. We used to live without cell phones. Now we can hardly imagine life otherwise.
This will be the same thing when life goes augmented or mixed reality. One day we’ll look back on this primitive times and wonder how we did anything.
Will it get us outside more?
No guarantees here either, but today’s gaming consoles aren’t exactly ushering us outside either. Eventually augmenting our living rooms will get boring. Eventually, we’ll be able to augment our whole life experience.
Imagine driving with a heads up view, integrating your navigation and points of interest. Sounds like the Skully helmet.
Don’t get too excited about fighting space invaders while commuting to work. At first anyway, the Hololens must tether to your PC. Powerful computing technology isn’t portable yet.
The closest example is Google cardboard. It’s a VR headset signed to work with many smartphones. Anyone who’s engaged more serious platforms will tell you, Cardboard is nothing like an Oculus Rift. You have to be connected to a PC.
While you can get into a pretty sexy VR headset for $300 right now, the developer kits for Hololens are shipping for $3000. That’s a lot of smackers for us everyday Joes and Janes.
Don’t stress, though. Technology moves on a logarithmic scale. It will be no time before we all have our own headsets. The Hololens shipping is just one step to the end of boring old reality as we know it. | <urn:uuid:da52e37e-c78b-421f-a2f1-b32f9269eb63> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://bodyhacks.com/microsoft-hololens-the-end-of-2d-displays/ | 2020-09-26T17:47:00Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400244353.70/warc/CC-MAIN-20200926165308-20200926195308-00609.warc.gz | en | 0.919456 | 795 |

Max (Jacob Tremblay), Thor (Brady Noon), and Lucas (Keith L. Williams) are inseparable allies in the treacherous world of modern day sixth grade.
Max is smitten with a girl in his grade, so much that her wringing out her retainer renders him useless. Thor wants to sing in his class recital, but fears the backlash from the cool kids. Lucas is all about rules and regulations, because it’s a fleeting myth at home with mom and dad.
When Max has the opportunity to attend a “kissing party,” the three boys freak out and must come together to navigate the freaky circumstances of free-pubescent knowledge, experience, and the ultimate fear of catching a glance of the end of innocence.
More than likely, I’m making Lee Stupnitsky’s Good Boys, which is produced by Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg, out to be more than it really is, which is a sixth grade version of Superbad. That film was also produced by Rogen and Goldberg, starring a yet-to-break-out Jonah Hill and Emma Stone. It was stuffed full of deplorable profanity, inhumane acts, and was an adventure film involving a few kids trying to have the time of their lives while remaining friends. It was wicked fun and fresh to the senses.
Fact: Good Boys is nowhere near as good as that film, but it is a mostly funny flick if you don’t expect world-changing plot threads, character development, or laugh-out-loud comedy. Neither of the central characters here are truly memorable, each fitting into a cinematic caricature that is will seem familiar to the eye of the film-addict. Stupnitsky and Lee Eisenberg’s script tries very hard to be original, going to otherworldly extremes to get these kids to spit out the worst batch of words that would make any level-headed parent scream at the top of their lungs in desperation. After a few funny scenes, the effort is evident.
What does work is the chemistry between the three leads. While neither actor stands out, the trio do get into some fun situations, including a freeway crossing involving a mannequin, rush hour traffic, and a drone. A chase between the kids and a pair of teenagers (Molly Gordon and Midori Francis) is funny and well-filmed. You believe in these three just enough to withstand the relentless onslaught of curse words, lewd behavior, and familiar make-up of their overall scheme.
If I were you, don’t expect the world when watching these Good Boys. The wise idea is to put yourself in their shoes and just hope for the best, which is a fairly decent time and a few good laughs. The movie doesn’t waste your time or money, but seems to be overrated as it exits the gate at the theaters.
I didn’t fall out of my chair laughing like I did at Bruce Almighty or Wedding Crashers. I won’t be repeating phrases from the movie, like I did with Anchorman. I don’t want to party with any of the adult characters in this comedy.
Good Boys is satisfying enough while also being forgettable. I’d recommend it, but wouldn’t demand you to see it right at this moment. | <urn:uuid:2e46983b-ad6a-4007-8936-109f6bdd4ae8> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://doseofbuffa.com/2019/10/14/good-boys-is-overrated-certainly-not-a-laugh-out-loud-comedy/ | 2020-09-26T18:58:58Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400244353.70/warc/CC-MAIN-20200926165308-20200926195308-00609.warc.gz | en | 0.967497 | 695 |

The turbulent struggle between father and son. A minimalist epic.
STEPS originated from the beautiful song EVANESCENT by composer Martin Fondse to which I started doing some animation exercises, working directly inside the 3D computer software. To my surprise a little story formed. With a big heart.
I created this little film because I enjoy the process of animation hands on. For bigger film projects I spend my time doing anything but animation, outsourcing most of the work to other animators. I plan on doing more of these 'super shorts', in different styles and techniques. In fact, I am currently working on an interesting little project which I animate in total darkness: Blindfoldimation..? Trust me, you are not going to believe your eyes!

(previously known as Podocarpus dacrydioides)
Kahikatea / White Pine
Kahikatea typically grow in groups, their roots intertwining and supporting each other. Forests of Kahikatea have been heavily cleared to provide fertile land for farming, as well as being milled for the manufacture of butter boxes when refrigerated shipping developed.
The autumn fruit were used by early Māori as a food source, collected in baskets made of harakeke. Kahikatea heartwood was favoured for the fashioning of bird spears.
20m high x 10m wide. Young trees have needle-like bronze leaves, and are columnar/pyramidal in shape. Older plants have twigs of overlapping green scales, and begin to branch, growing to 30m+ over many years.
Great as pillars through which views are framed, especially in lowland wetter sites. Ecologically important in creating vegetation islands when planted in groups, particularly where the fruit is popular with many native birds. Also good for filtering water in low-lying areas.
Prefers moist ground, and tolerates very wet conditions extending to seasonal flooding. Provide shelter when young, but frost and wind hardy when established. Grows fastest when sheltered at the sides by vegetation.
Rimu (Dacrydium cuppresinum) – seed is glossy rather than coated in a white blush; fruit has stubby “spikes”; leafy scales are held outward and harder to the touch. Branches often have a weeping appearance, especially when young.
The female Kahikatea will only set fruit when close to male trees. The fruit are relished by an array of native birds, including tui, kereru, kakapo, kaka and bellbird.
The Brown Mudfish favours wetland stands of Kahikatea, where the shallow waters or mud are shaded and competition from other fish species is minimal.

ClickFunnels versus Every person Else.
Many individuals ask how ClickFunnels as compares to other touchdown web page builders such as Leadpages, Unbounce, as well as Infusionsoft.
For the most part it’s not actually a fair comparison because each of these tools excels is one location or the various other.
The chart above offers a comprehensive evaluation – however I’ll highlight a few of the significant comparisons below.
ClickFunnels vs Leadpages
Prior to ClickFunnels, Leadpages was the large pet.
Leadpages is just a lead capture software application – absolutely nothing more. You could produce landing web pages, lead boxes, accumulate leads … that’s pretty much it. Furthermore, the Leadpages templates are also limited on personalization.
ClickFunnels is even more versatile – it’s a lot easier to use and also does so much more compared to produce lead capture pages.
Put simply, Leadpages is truly just a landing page building contractor, while ClickFunnels is focused around building extremely integrated funnels.
ClickFunnels vs Infusionsoft
Infusionsoft is not a touchdown page or sales web page home builder. It has a few of that functionality developed it, but that’s not just what it’s understood for.
At it’s core, Infusionsoft is a CRM platform – one that allows you to manage your whole consumer database. ClickFunnels has this capacity with Actionetics, yet it’s not nearly as advanced as Infusionsoft.
Infusionsoft is also very pricey and pressures every new customer to pay $2000 for a required kickstart coaching bundle just to learn ways to utilize the intricate system (which is notoriously difficult to use).
ClickFunnels Associate Program
There are 2 major paths people go down as ClickFunnels customers.
Those that prefer to make use of the device for their business – in hopes of one day accomplish both Comma Club (over $1M in income).
As well as those that are interested in earning passive revenue as a ClickFunnels Affiliate and winning the Desire Car Contest (where they pay $500/$1000 towards your dream car if you get to 100/200 active regular monthly signups, specifically).
With a monstrous 40% regular monthly reoccuring payment, ClickFunnels quickly has among the greatest affiliate programs of any type of system available.
That’s right – you get paid an ongoing 40% compensation on every associate signup you make through the ClickFunnels Affiliate Program. Yet, just what does that actually correspond to?
The basic strategy is a $97/month financial investment and also the Etison Suite plan is a $297/month financial investment. therefore you make $38.80 each fundamental strategy as well as $118.80 per Etison Suite plan … each and every month!
Usually, every 100 signups will certainly bring in $4000/month in associate payments (basically depending upon the amount of Etison Strategy individuals are in there).
All-time Low Line
ClickFunnels is pass on the greatest system if you are seeking to easily construct high transforming sales funnels.
Since it was constructed from scratch to be the most effective sales funnel builder, it beats out all the competitors in that regard.
On the surface, it might not be the cheapest product available – yet if you utilize it to its full capacity, your business will end up being a lot more lucrative and also you will save money from not needing to use other tools. Google Hangouts Hipaa Compliance

India – strongest growth market for medical technology worldwide
India is the strongest growth market for medical technology woldwide. The motors driving growth are: increased expansion of the market for private hospitals, growing as an outsourcing location for laboratory testing, attractive market for medical tourism, and changed living conditions.
India is considered to be the most promising growth market for medical technology in the world. This is due in particular to a growing population, an increasing occurrence of diseases of affluence (notably diabetes and cardio-vascular diseases), a growing number of elderly people, and the establishment of health insurances.
National hospitals are considered to be poorly equipped – standing in queues and failure to respect privacy are commonplace. In contrast, private clinics operate with highly qualified doctors of a first-class international standard.
According to Deloitte, the overall market volume is around 50 billion. The segment with the strongest growth is the market for electronic systems, where annual growth of 17%, to almost US $ 6.5 billion, is expected for the period up to 2020. Medical appliances account for 55% of the market for medical technology, implants account for 25% and disposable products for 20%.
Local production is not expected to be increased in the foreseeable future, since on the one hand, Indian health service organisations do not operate in the high-end sector, and on the other hand, the Indian government focuses on basic medical care for poorer inhabitants.
According to the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare, nowadays as much as 80% of the medical technology required is imported, with the level of import dependence being particularly high for technically sophisticated products. The USA, Japan, Germany, Singapore and the People’s Republic of China are the most important countries for imports.
Approximately 20% of the required electrical diagnosis devices and appliances, and X-ray equipment, is imported from Germany – this figure is around 30% for ophthalmological instruments (source: UN Comtrade, May 2012).
Medical products to be needed:
Medical products that will be needed in future are (acc. to Deloitte and Frost & Sullivan) are:
- easy-to-handle measuring devices for home use, e.g. blood-sugar and blood-pressure gauges, digital clinical thermometers and scales
- Electronic equipment and disposables for use in hospitals, e.g. X-ray equipment, CT scanners, ultrasound equipment, ECG, electronic stethoscopes, spirometers and video microscopes, pathological analysers and probes
- Dental and surgical instruments
- Diagnostic technology (laboratory technology and medical kits, notably in the areas of biochemical tests, immunology and haematology)
- Further expansion of the market for „private“ clinics through private investors. Large clinic operators, such as Apollo Hospitals, Fortis Healthcare, Max Healthcare and Wockhardt, already account for 8-10% of the market.
- Expanding India as an outsourcing locations for lab tests, diagnostic tests and research
- Strongly growing medical tourism – targeted at Indians living abroad, foreigners who do not have sufficient medical insurance coverage in their home country, and Arab countries in the field of in vitro fertilisation
Our partner agency in India will gladly give you advice should you be striving to expand to India. Are you interested, please contact us.

For weeks under the cloak of night Palestinians secretly renovated four caves and built a tin-roofed house in the West Bank hamlet of Ar-Rakeez where only a handful of residents live. Last week they opened the homes in a “bringing life back” ceremony.
The event was not announced in advance as to avoid any potential disruption by the Israeli army, locals said.
The caves were refurbished by Palestinians from the southern West Bank villages of Susiya, Masafer Yatta and At-Tuwani who are part of the Protection and Sumud Committee, a local group that seeks to prevent home demolitions, and with support from the Palestinian Authority.
Because of rigid Israeli planning restrictions and frequent settler harassment, most of Ar-Rakeez’s villagers moved to the nearby city of Yatta over the last 20 years. Four families said they will move into the fixed up caves, joining the three families who already live there.
Ayman Abu Arram, 40, said he will be one of the Palestinians coming back to Ar-Rakeez, “We left in 2004 because of settlers but we never completely left as we were coming from time to time to work on the land. We want to come back.”
“There is no land in Yatta and it is overcrowded. Life is better here, with clean air. I am not afraid of the army or settlers. I decided to come back with my family, and we will stay in the cave for now. We own it,” he said.
Mohammed Abu Arram, 51, who is originally from Ar-Rakeez said he wants to move back. He explained, up until the late 90s there were around nine families in the village. He also said many left due to ongoing “Israeli settler harassment.”
The South Hebron Hills has one of the highest rates of settler harassment in the West Bank. In 2017 the United Nations found 33 Palestinians were killed in violence attributed to settlers.
Ar-Rakeez is located in Area C of the West Bank, an Oslo-era delineation where the Israeli military maintains full security and civil control. For scale, around 60 percent of the West Bank is in Area C. Palestinians living in this region cannot build any permanent structures without an Israeli permit, which are rarely issued as figures indicate. Between 2010 and 2014 only 1.5 percent of Palestinian construction permits were approved in Area C. Last year, a mere five permits were issued.
As a result, many Palestinian houses in Area C are not connected to electrical or water lines, or sanitation services. Israeli forces have also declared some areas in the South Hebron Hills a “firing zone,” or a training ground for the military. With errant bullets from practice sessions and frequent mock raids, Palestinians read such designations as an attempt to expel them. Villagers from Ar-Rakeez said it was a quiet process of “a slow ethnic cleansing.”
Yet in recent years locals have developed a strategy to repopulate abandoned villages by renovating caves, a legal loophole that circumvents Israeli policies of demolishing homes constructed or upgraded without a permit.
During Wednesday’s event, Walid Assaf, head of the Commission for Resisting the Wall and Settlements said the efforts to repopulate Ar-Rakeez is part of a larger context of the Palestinian struggle, “It is the same battle in Al Mughayer, Al Khan Al Ahmar, Susiya and here,” adding, “it is about existence.”
In 2017, a local group of young organizers called the Youth of Sumud (sumud is the Arabic word for steadfastness) held the Sumud Freedom camp with the help of international Jewish activists on the site of Sarura, a Palestinian village in the West Bank whose villagers were evicted by Israeli forces in the 1980s and 1990s when the hamlet was converted into a military firing zone. When the protest camp was raided by Israeli forces, all of the temporary structures built by the activists were destroyed. Still, the group has maintained a presence in two caves in Sarura. One of them has a small kitchen, a stove, an outdoor toilet and running water. The group works during the night. This project has allowed some of the families to visit two to three times a week to work in their lands. It also creates hurtles for nearby settlements planning to expand.
Ali Awwad, 20, one of the young activists told Mondoweiss, “The people in Ar-Rakeez follow the model we started in Sarura, and for sure we will support them.”
“Israeli settlements keep expanding. We know that Israelis want to connect the outposts of Abigail and the Ma’on settlement, and we are here to stop the plan,” he said.
Since the Sarura protest camp was established two years ago, Awwad has lived there in a cave with other activists. Once a month he leaves to visit his family in the town of Tubas in the north of the West Bank. “Settlers and soldiers come every week to harass us. Just yesterday they destroyed 22 olive trees we just planted two weeks ago. I have already been arrested three or four times,” he said.
Sami, 21, another activist in the group, helped with the construction “secretly at nighttime so Israeli forces would not confiscate our tools and equipment as they did in the past in Sarura.”
Sami said he was attacked by settlers while at the freedom camp and his leg was fractured in two places. “We did shifts in the night in Sarura. The Israelis gave us a demolition order for the toilet, but they cannot say anything about the cave,” he said. | <urn:uuid:4fd441dd-7308-4dc4-898c-2e83464ef15d> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://mondoweiss.net/2019/02/depopulated-villages-hebron/ | 2020-09-26T18:39:10Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400244353.70/warc/CC-MAIN-20200926165308-20200926195308-00609.warc.gz | en | 0.975445 | 1,212 |

Tooth Filling Bremerton, WA
Restoration using dental fillings is a common dental procedure. Using a tooth-colored blend of quartz and resin, Dr. Hablutzel is able to make small repairs when teeth are damaged from decay,and repair teeth that have been cracked, chipped or fractured. This dental filling material, known as composite, is not only used to restore teeth, but also for cosmetic improvements, we can change the color of a patient’s teeth or reshape disfigured teeth.
At Pacific Avenue Dental, Family Dentistry, we can restore your teeth with dental fillings using a material that aesthetically blends in with the color of your teeth. This simple procedure can repair damage, provide additional strength, and improve your beauty and function.
What Are Composite Fillings?The material we use to make simple repairs is known as Composite Filling. It is a blend of quartz and resin that can be shaded to match the color of your teeth. When first applied, this material is soft and moldable, similar in texture to a dough. Dr. Hablutzel is able to manipulate the filling material into any shape as needed. It is then hardened using a specialized light, making for a strong hold. We love this material, it has come a long way over the years in look, durability and strength. We believe you will love it too, composite filling has been a huge benefit to dentistry because:
|•||Composite filling is able to be colored to match the natural color of your teeth, helping it blend in and be nearly invisible.|
|•||Composite filling can withstand high chewing pressure. In the past, dentists have not recommended it for molars because it was not as strong as amalgam (silver fillings), but the product we use today is much stronger and more durable.|
|•||Composite filling is able to adhere to your tooth enamel, which amalgam is not, so we can remove less of the natural tooth structure when placing.|
|•||Composite fillings adhere to the tooth, which provides additional structural stability to the tooth, vs. amalgam which simply rests where it is placed on the tooth.|
When would I need a repair done with Composite Filling?We use composite filling to make simple repairs. This may include filling cavities after the removal of decay, repairing chips or fractures, and making small adjustments, such as filling in gaps, or reshaping a tooth as needed. Making small cosmetic adjustments is known as Composite Bonding or Aesthetic Bonding. This process is fast, easy, and can be very durable, it will not have the strength of a dental crown, but is considerably cheaper and should last several years.
What is the cost?The prices for composite filling repairs will vary, but is often covered by most insurances. Dr. Hablutzel, and his front office staff, are happy to discuss the costs with you based on the procedure you are having done and what your insurance is willing to pay.
Composite filling is a wonderful tool for repairing your teeth. We are happy to discuss its advantages with you. For more information, contact Allan Hablutzel, DDS at our Bremerton, WA 98337 location.

This post is a summary of a CBS news article Senate health care bill on brink of collapse, vote tally shows.
We hope that Applicable Large Employers (required to comply with the ACA) will find this information useful.
The Senate vote on the new health care plan has been delayed until John McCain recovers from eye surgery.
Meanwhile, several Republican senators are delaying their decision until they can review the Congressional Budget Office’s cost estimate of the updated legislation.
A number of Republican senators say they remain undecided, and two others say they will oppose this revised version.
“It’s unclear if Republicans will ever be able to bridge the gap between the conservatives and moderates within their conference. And even if they were able to pass it through the Senate, they’d need to reconcile that version with House Republicans, making an already difficult task even harder.
In the end, Republicans may be forced to negotiate with Democrats, which Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-New York, has been calling for weeks. Some GOP senators in addition to Collins have already warmed to this approach. Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-South Carolina, is also advocating reaching across the aisle.
Until a new plan is in place, ACA compliance and reporting are still mandatory.
Also, it may not be likely that a replacement plan would take effect this year (if it were to receive enough votes to become legislation.) | <urn:uuid:f3dd655d-e20a-4840-bccf-9eb975d31dca> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://pass-port.com/update-about-the-aca/ | 2020-09-26T17:34:47Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400244353.70/warc/CC-MAIN-20200926165308-20200926195308-00609.warc.gz | en | 0.960169 | 288 |

Suzuki Ciaz Smart Hybrid Review
Burning of fire and turning of wheels have been the most innovative discoveries that initiated development. We saw the use of fuel and electricity to drive these wheels to a destination. Fuel being a temporary source and electricity being a complex source, for now, the mid-point of these two sources is the smart hybrid.
Suzuki Moto Corp has introduced four hybrid cars at the NADA Auto Show 2019. They are Ciaz, Ertiga, S-Cross, and XL-6. The review unit we were provided was the all-new Smart Hybrid Ciaz.
Suzuki Ciaz Smart Hybrid Exterior
The car is a premium sedan. It is upmarket and classy. The car gets a slight rear slant which makes it look elegant. The headlights are wide and bold. The LED DRL signature lights make the car look sharper. The frontal grille has a chrome finish and a lot of chrome around the fog light. The backlights also have the signature LED stripes making you visible from far away. The reflectors are also topped up with the chrome garnishing. The ground clearance of the car is 170 mm.
Suzuki Ciaz Smart Hybrid Interior
The interior has a wood touch of luxury. The inside of the car is as spacious as it looks from the outside. It has a seven-inch touchscreen infotainment system that supports both Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. The shade of the interior is light with leather upholstery. This is a five-seater car having enough space for all. The leg space and headroom are just enough for a comfortable drive. They have provided a large boot that can occupy 510 l.
Suzuki Ciaz Smart Hybrid Engine
This 1462cc engine provides a maximum power of 104 ps at 6000 rpm and a peak torque of 138 nm at 4400 rpm. The car has four cylinders and four valves. The best part of the car is its mileage. With 1500 cc, it gives a mileage of 21.56 kmpl. Thanks to the smart hybrid technology.
What is a smart hybrid technology?
Smart Hybrid is an advanced technology that helps increase fuel efficiency and enhances driving performance. The engine automatically stops when idle and silently starts when the optimal conditions are met in manual and automatic transmissions. It comes with a dual battery setup including a Lithium-Ion Battery. These high capacity batteries store the energy generated during braking to assist the engine's idle start-stop and the torque assist functions. The energy stored in the Lithium-ion battery assists during acceleration which helps the engine in providing optimal acceleration and performance. The smart hybrid technology not only increases your performance but also saves your money that would have burnt with the total use of petrol.
Suzuki Ciaz Smart Hybrid Price in Nepal
The car comes in three different colors. The price of the car starts from 38,29,000 NRS to 44,290,000 NRS. Visit the showroom located at Dhobighat or Naxal and book for a test ride.

A friend posted this Huffington Post article on Facebook earlier this week. I read it and found myself tearing up, not because I’ve experienced everything the author has at age 33, but because it made me think through my own Staircase Landing.
At 33 you think back to the craziness of your 20s and remember the late nights that ended sleeping in a bed with your best friend, waking up, showering, and throwing on another coat of mascara. (How did we not ever use eye makeup remover?)
Texting a picture of beets to a friend who although you haven’t seen each other in years responds that she’s trying to take a picture of a guy you had a huge crush on 8 years ago that she ran into at a conference. Because that’s what you do.
You send your parents pictures of monkeys made out of flowers to convince them to come visit for the flower show next year. They respond hesitantly, but only because it could be cold.
If you’re lucky, less than 100% of the people who you manage are older than you. If you’re really lucky, those who are, don’t act offended that they’re older than you are, and occasionally do what you ask them to do.
You’re happy when someone tells you that you can be really scary when you’re mad in the workplace.
You hate it when others at the office ask what you’re doing that weekend because they want to live vicariously through you, only to realize you might actually have a less interesting weekend than they do.
You have had multiple big reunions. Each making you feel both accomplished and sad at the same time.
You feel ashamed for constantly having dishes in your sink, laundry on the drying rack, and boxes from online shopping just inside your door. And more ashamed that you just admitted to it on your blog. To. The. World.
You realize people you judged at other points in your life are really fabulous. And often people you probably have much more in common with now.
You stop focusing so much on what people think of you, and think about what makes you happy.
People who are overly concerned with others opinions start to becoming extremely annoying and uninteresting.
Heartbreaks of your past become opportunities to find who you really are. And a chance to realize what you really want for your future.
You’re just happy your young enough to be young, and old enough to be old.
What’s your “33” thing?
What horrible thing did you to your body in your 20s?

The wardens will ‘warden’ just about anything! From street/town/city and corporate events to festivals, parties and product launches. In fact, just tell them what to warden and watch them take charge with hilarious consequences.
The wardens are completely dedicated to their jobs and with the jurisdiction to issue tickets (which can be tailored and printed specifically for your event) for just about any ridiculous rule or law that they see fit to invent. These may include: Walking without due care and attention, wearing a loud shirt in a built up area, possession of an offensive child, whistling an infectious song or just walking whilst using a mobile.
Anything with wheels can fall foul of bad parking (using their portable roll out double yellow lines), balding tyres, or simply be pulled over for a random safety check or speeding (yes they have a speed camera too)! Watch out or you may find that you end up with a ticket!
It’s not all about tickets though for these two loveable, laughable interactive characters like nothing more than to stop for a good old chat and if there is any music playing they love to show off their crazy dance moves.
Immaculately turned out, they wear their uniforms with pride. The Wardens are loud, bold and colourful and will gather crowds as they administrate their ridiculous rules and regulations.
This comedy walkabout act is perfect for any event indoors or out. | <urn:uuid:fa294c86-1f4b-40fd-871a-daeb5d2801f7> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://the2men.co.uk/wardens/ | 2020-09-26T18:46:41Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400244353.70/warc/CC-MAIN-20200926165308-20200926195308-00609.warc.gz | en | 0.955125 | 293 |
Posted on Septemebr 13, 2018 by: Kyle Risko
Only Stanford and USC have started conference play, but that doesn’t mean we can’t start ranking season! The Pac-12 is in good shape with some big non-conference wins over the last few weeks. Next week is when we will start to get a true sense for who is a threat to win their division and who will have to wait until next year. Here are my current power rankings after week 2.
1. Stanford (2-0 Overall, 1-0 Conference):
Not a huge surprise here. The Cardinal deserve it after their convincing win over the Trojans last weekend in Palo Alto. The true test for Stanford is their upcoming gauntlet with 4 current top 25 teams remaining on the road, starting with Oregon in two weeks.
2. Washington (1-1 Overall, 0-0 Conference):
A “moral victory” and close loss to Auburn was followed by a blowout win against North Dakota. They still have a ton of experienced talent, so they sit at number two on their way to face Utah for their first conference game.
3. Oregon (2-0 Overall, 0-0 Conference):
The dark horse of the Pac-12 North beat up on a couple high school teams over the last few weeks. The Ducks are currently averaging 60 points a game and Justin Herbert has already passed for 9 touchdowns. Not sure Oregon can keep that pace up, but regardless, they sit at 2-0 with a big match up against Stanford coming up in a few weeks at Autzen Stadium.
4. California (2-0 Overall,0-0 Conference):
The school with the least impressive mascot has been surprisingly decent on the football field to start the season. Albeit non-conference, the Golden Bears have back to back wins against North Carolina and BYU. Next week should hopefully be another win as they take on the Bengals of Idaho State. But, the Ducks come to town in week 4 for the Bears’ first major game of the year. Really, these bottom three teams are interchangeable.
5. Washington State(2-0 Overall, 0-0 Conference):
The Cougars have had two blowout wins against Wyoming and San Jose State to put them at 2-0 to start the year. It’s hard to tell how good their offense or defense is at this point because of the caliber of opponents; however, QB Gardner Minshew is currently 6th in the country with 733 passing yards, to go along with 6 TDs. Their upcoming big challenge is a late night Friday game in the LA coliseum against the Trojans in Week 4.
6. Oregon State (1-1 Overall, 0-0 Conference):
They got clubbed by the real OSU in Week 1 before bouncing back and taking care of business against Southern Utah. The Beavers have a surprisingly potent backfield (who would have thought) as both Jermar Jefferson and Artavis Pierce are in the top 20 in the nation for total rushing yards through the first two games. A few decent match ups against Nevada and Arizona upcoming will give us a true indication of the Beaver’s ability to compete on the big stage.
1. Arizona State (2-0 Overall, 0-0 Conference):
Let’s be honest, they deserve this spot after their huge win against #15 Michigan State this past weekend. N’Keal Harry and Kyle Williams were impressive with almost 200 yards between them. They are currently now ranked #23 in the AP Poll going on the road against San Diego State. We will see if they can keep the top spot in the coming weeks.
2. Colorado (2-0 Overall, 0-0 Conference):
The Buffs had a big non-conference win over Nebraska on the road over the weekend, earning them the #2 spot in the South Power Rankings this week. Laviska Shenault Jr. went absolutely bonkers for over 170 yards receiving and a timely touchdown in the victory. With low expectations this season from most people, they still have a lot to prove, but the Buffs have a couple easy weeks before ASU comes to town in Week 5.
3. USC (1-1 Overall, 0-1 Conference):
Call me a homer now! USC has tons of talent, just some isn’t realized yet. JT Daniels and the Trojans lost a defensive battle against Stanford Saturday night, handing them a loss in their first conference matchup of the season. Stanford’s offense was very efficient, and all it took was a poor redzone offense from USC to seal the deal. USC has plenty of big games in the near future, including a road matchup with the Long Horns Saturday night. Look for the Trojans to get better as the season goes on.
4. Utah (2-0 Overall, 0-0 Conference):
Utah had high expectations coming into this year as one of the favorites in the South division. They started slow in both their games against Weber State and Northern Illinois, but Tyler Huntley and Zack Moss still pose a major threat offensively. The Utes really haven’t played anyone yet, but this week Washington comes to town for a late night matchup. They are hoping that home field advantage will help them against the Huskies experience. If it does, I am sure they can move up these rankings in the coming weeks.
5. Arizona (0-2 Overall, 0-0 Conference):
I don’t even know what to say. Arizona was one of the favorites in the South and has been terribly disappointing with losses against BYU and Houston. They have a couple easy games coming up against Southern Utah and Oregon State (maybe) where hopefully they can right the ship before they play the Trojans in Week 5.
6. UCLA (0-2 Overall, 0-0 Conference):
This bottom two is interchangeable. They both lack offense and the ability to come through in the 4th quarter when they need to. UCLA has one of the toughest schedules in the nation, so unless Chip Kelly figures something out quick, especially the QB position, they might stay here for a while at #6. | <urn:uuid:108e030d-ae55-4a81-9aaa-a2c79a75abd8> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://thepac12checkdown.com/2018/09/13/pac-12-power-rankings-after-week-2/ | 2020-09-26T17:13:05Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400244353.70/warc/CC-MAIN-20200926165308-20200926195308-00609.warc.gz | en | 0.970005 | 1,281 |
How do you spend your free time? Down time? Do you need to chill in your comfiest pj’s or sweats, eat something you know you might regret, but enjoy it anyway? You need to have that warm and cozy drink – though right now you might need a cold brew because of the crazy high temps everywhere – but a drink that is relaxing, as you put your feet up.
Are you relaxing and reading through blogs? An actual book?
Are you catching up on emails? Face-timing with a friend far away (something I miss greatly)? Maybe texting? Do many of you still make phone calls and talk on the phone? Please – show of hands? Not many?
I rarely chat on the phone. If my job didn’t need me to speak on the phone 10 hours a day, then I would not be on the phone. I’m partially deaf and it bothers me greatly. But its work.
If I have to listen to another person say something dumb, get angry because I’m an anonymous punching bag on the other end of the phone, or call because they can’t figure out how to use websites,
handle Googling simple information, or email because modern technology is evil – I mean it; I’m going to write a blog about it!
Haha, I’m kind of kidding. Oh wait, I did just blog about my frustration – never mind.
Anyway, on my downtime, which is what I had started to blog about, I spend a lot of it watching YouTube videos with my son. We have that common enjoyment when I’m off work. I tend to gravitate to humor, but I love informative too. There are sites I just need to watch. I love OneyPlays. I mean, Chris, Tomar, Zach and Lyle are hilarious. When it was Chris with Julian and Ding Dong they were fantastic, but it seems Chris O’Neill has the ability to hang out with naturally hilarious people. I pretty much watch anything he does because he’s so funny. His compilations are the best.
And so many great animators have animated their skits. If you want to laugh he’s worth watching. There is an amazing amount of animation talent on YouTube. The above was done by Brandon Turner. And a must watch series was done by Cody H. and his series of Space Ghost: Coast to Coast using OneyPlays skits.
For informative mixed with humor I like these guys. These are all “must watch” channels: Corridor Crew, Zefrank 1, Internet Historian and his other channel, Internet Historian: Incognito Mode , and Gigguk. I also like to watch scary videos and for that I’ll watch Chills and his other channel, Top 15s, and Slapped Ham. And then I have a channel just because its so sweet, KiSH-Log and because of fantastic musical talent I’ll watch Ru’s Piano Ru.
What I had originally wanted to post about was a whole ‘nother can of worms and since this post will get extremely long I’ll end it here.
I hope you all enjoy what little bit of weekend you have left and just chill.
Here’s a song I’ve been enjoying lately and it will lead to the next blog post – VTubers. Hmm? My favorite V-Tuber is above: the Doog Slayer and overall cute Inugami Korone.
Take care and be safe, and have a great day of finding what you seek!

Robbie Robertson, founding guitarist and main songwriter of The Band, is the guest on the latest episode of Dan Rather‘s AXS TV series The Big Interview, premiering tonight at 8 p.m. ET/5 p.m. PT.
Among the topics Robertson discusses is the rift that formed between him and The Band’s singer/drummer, Levon Helm, after Robbie left the group.
In a sneak peek of the episode, Robertson explains that “10 years or more after [The Band’s original breakup], Levon…was having some tough times with health, financial situations and…I’ve been told, too, some mental health issues. And he became angry, and he turned his anger towards me at this stage.”
Helm discussed his anger and resentment toward Robertson in his 1993 autobiography, This Wheel’s on Fire, accusing Robbie of not properly sharing songwriting credits with the other Band members, among other alleged misdeeds.
Robertson says after the memoir was published, Helm told him during a phone call, “That book was bulls***…I didn’t write that book. [Another] guy wrote it, [and] he put a bunch of stuff in there.”
Robbie added that people ask him about his feud with Levon but as far as he’s concerned, “There was no feud. There was no fight. It takes two people to be in a fight.”
Robertson also recalls visiting Helm in the hospital while he was in a coma just before he died.
“I spent time with him before he was gone,” Robbie says. “And I sat there and I thought about all the amazing and beautiful things that we had done together.”
In a separate preview, Robertson talks glowingly about the making of The Band’s 1969 self-titled album, which took place in Los Angeles in a house once owned by Sammy Davis Jr.

The 25th edition of the Lorenzo Bandini Trophy was held in Brisighella, Italy, on May 5, 2018. It was a momentous day for Mahindra Racing, as they became the first team from Formula E to be recognised and given this prestigious award.
Mahindra Racing has been part of Formula E since the premiere electric racing series' inception in 2014 and has made steady progress. After learning the basics of racing in the initial few years of the championship, the Indian team had a fabulous run in the 2017 season, during which it registered its first win, while simultaneously racking up 10 podium finishes.
This performance enabled the team to finish the season in third position, overall. The 2018 Lorenzo Bandini Trophy was awarded to the team owing to their relentless progress in Formula E. The trophy was collected by Dilbaugh Gill, the Team Principal and CEO of Mahindra Racing. At the event, the team’s driver, Nick Heidfield also did a few demo laps in the M4 Electro racing car from last season.
Lorenzo Bandini was an Italian driver who raced in Formula 1 between 1961 and 1967. He was also a renowned endurance driver. Sadly, he passed away in a tragic accident while competing in the 1967 Monaco Grand Prix. The Lorenzo Bandini Trophy was established in 1992 by the racer’s hometown of Brisighella, to be awarded each year for a commendable performance in motorsport. | <urn:uuid:9dbcf2a8-e5a8-48d4-ba2b-a755bf8ee310> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://www.autocarindia.com/motor-sports-news/mahindra-racing-lauded-at-lorenzo-bandini-trophy-event-408297 | 2020-09-26T17:12:52Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400244353.70/warc/CC-MAIN-20200926165308-20200926195308-00609.warc.gz | en | 0.978526 | 297 |

By Umar Bayo Abdulwahab
Chairman, Sobi FM, Ilorin, Alhaji Lukman Mustapha has debunked insinuations in some quarters that some opposition figures were behind the establishment of the radio station to pursue certain political interests ahead of 2019.
He however argued that plying opposition role was good for democracy, asserting that “in a country where there is no opposition, government will tilt from democracy to autocracy.”
Mustapha spoke during a media parley with select journalists in Ilorin where he responded to various issues concerning the operation of the new station and insinuations making the rounds that he was aspiring to be governor of the state in 2019.
The chairman said the station in less than one year of its operation had provided platforms for kwarans to expresses a ‘‘balanced view’’ on issue of governance, politics amongst others.
Describing the station as ‘‘Messiest oriented’’, Mustapha said ‘‘we have created a voice for the generality of the people. It’s very fallacious for anyone to tag us an opposition station, we are giving voice to people who have no voice,’’ he said.
On the reason for establishing a radio station, the former banker said ‘‘We have passion for changing how things are in the community, when you look at the History of Ilorin; there is a complete departure from our value-orientation.”
On whether he had the intention to aspire for governorship position in 2019, Mustapha who did not give a definite answer said, those peddling such rumours must have seen some qualities in him for which they believed he was good for the job.
Responding to questions on the administration of President Muhammadu Buhari, Mustapha urged Kwarans to embrace the federal government’s anchor borrower’s scheme agricultural revolution as a means of diversifying the economy.
The trained banker said contrary to the belief of many investors, Ilorin is a business hub with a lot of untapped potentials that needed to be explored. | <urn:uuid:3706f96c-791b-440d-b909-27c18629e1b6> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://www.blueprint.ng/were-working-for-no-one-sobi-fm-chair/ | 2020-09-26T18:22:15Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400244353.70/warc/CC-MAIN-20200926165308-20200926195308-00609.warc.gz | en | 0.96876 | 448 |

It is hard to consider rationally and be mentally very clear when the most critical issue is sitting down in entrance of a slot equipment.
When a individual is battling with a significant gambling issue, their non secular daily life is truly compromised. When a man or woman is spiritual, there is a relationship amongst the particular person and the planet around them.

Client: Texas A & M University at Galveston
Location: Galveston, TX, United States
Completion date: 2010
Artwork budget: $200,000
The installation consists of three mosaic locations in the Ocean and Coastal Studies Building at Texas A&M Galveston. Syncopation Sea is composed of two tumbled smalti-glass murals. The larger mural, 12'x23', is a colorful look at sea life: a school of fish, ocean currents and underwater plant life. The smaller mural is 10'x10' feet with an image of a mysterious shadow and light reflected off the sandy sea floor. The Benthic Zone is a 15″x43' sculptured relief mosaic recessed into two walls that run the width of the lobby. It depicts microscopic plankton, diatoms and other single-cell life forms.
The architect and the client were looking for an artwork that would celebrate the objective of the building: to learn about marine life. They wanted a statement piece in the main lobby that would accentuate the architecture while taking into consideration the potential stress to the artwork since the building is in a flood zone on a barrier island. Integration into the overall look and feel of the building was key as they worked to involve me in creating locations for artwork within the main lobby. Mosaic was chosen as the medium for its ease of maintenance, longevity and ability to withstand flooding.
Since the architect and client approached me at the start of the project, I worked with them to design fully integrated spaces specifically for mosaic. Originally only one location was available, yet with further meetings and visits to my studio, the client soon realized the benefits of multiple mosaic locations. Using this opportunity, I explored different scenes in ocean life with the two larger mosaics as well as different materials and scale in The Benthic Zone. Realizing the location and designing the space for The Benthic Zone was a true collaboration between the desires of the client, the design skills of the architect and the vision of my artwork. My collaboration with the architect enabled mindfulness regarding the design of the terrazzo floors in relation to the mosaics. Though architect designed, the terrazzo engages the materials, artwork and function of the main lobby creating a fully integrated and beautiful space.

Your pet can give you love, and pleasure, and devotion. But your pet can also give you a zoonotic disease.
Zoonotic diseases ,
(or Zoonoses) are diseases and infections that are naturally transmitted between vertebrate animals and man
There are two types of zoonoses: those that can be transmitted from animals TO humans, and those that infect animals AND humans. For instance, you can only get rabies from the bite of an infected animal. You and your pet, however, can each get Lyme disease independently from ticks.
While more common in developing countries and tropical climates, zoonoses pose a potential risk in industrialized nations as well, particularly to children, the elderly and pregnant women.
“Cat scratch fever,” isn’t just a song, it’s an infection you can contract from a cat’s scratch or bite.
“Ringworm” isn’t a worm, but a fungal infection that can be ring shaped. It can be transmitted by contact with the fur or skin of an infected domesticated pet.
Semiannual veterinary exams can help detect and treat zoonotic diseases in your pet. Other vaccinations such as, Lyme disease, rabies, giardia or leptospirosis, may be recommended. Meanwhile, keep your pet from coming into contact with urine or feces of other animals.

Service City: Beijing (China)
Service Language: English (Excellent)
Experience as a Guide: more than 5 years
Year of Birth: 1989
My name is Fiona, originally from Henan Province, about 800km away from Beijing and home to the world famous Chinese Kungfu.
I had my heart set on being a tour guide from a young age and followed my dream to Beijing in 2009, after graduating from college in Guangzhou.
I am a fan of Chinese history and particularly Beijing's rich culture, and I love to share it with my guests in a fun way, as an insider, which I assume is the best way that travelers get to learn about China.
I love having fun with those who join my tours and, in particular, enjoy showing the sublime beauty of the Summer Palace.
In my spare time I love going to museums, practicing calligraphy, or cycling in the old town at night, which always makes me feel relaxed and happy. I also love watching American TV shows. You might be surprised to hear that I learned almost all of my flawless English by watching tv and movies!
For your reference, below are some of my reviews on Tripadvisor. (Please note: if you open these links on your mobile, TripAdvisor may ask you to install its app.)
❝ our guide, Fiona, was fun, knowledgeable and excited to show off her beautiful country to us. She was absolutely perfect in every sense as a guide and a travel companion. She showed us things that we would have missed, talked with us about Chinese history, current events, and what it was like being a Chinese woman in today's China. She was a huge part in our day being seamlessly smooth and one of the best days of our 20 in China this last April. ❞
❝ Our guide Fiona was the best guide we ever had. Fun, perfect english, lots of anecdotes. We had a lunch at haidilao with her (hot pot restaurant), lot of fun and new experience. Highly recommanded. ❞
★★★★★ Reviewed Dec 2019
The highlight of our Beijing experience was definitely having our stellar English-speaking tour guide, Fiona, passionately show us why Beijing is not-to-be-missed. Her love for the city’s history and culture is palpable and contagious. Not only was she incredibly knowledgeable, but she is also warm, funny, charming, and attentive to her clients. We were able to expertly fit in so many highlights on our two short days in Beijing - including the Tiananmen Square, Forbidden City, Jin Shan Park, the Temple Heaven on Day 1 and The Great Wall & Olympic Stadium on Day 2 - because she had the inside track on all-things-Beijing due to her 10+ years of experience as a tour guide. She was part-historian, part-translator and part-photographer during our whirlwind two days of tours. Both days we were treated to a delicious lunch at local restaurants where we were the only tourists there. Both of these authentic culinary experiences made us feel like we were Beijing locals for a bit! We were able to accomplish so much - yet we never felt rushed or hurried.
Beijing can be a bit overwhelming for Western visitors. But, not with Fiona! She really set us at ease and made us fall in love with this city. We will surely be back for another visit. Having a guide like Fiona made our Beijing experience so special and unforgettable, and we are so grateful she was able to share her passion for this city with us. | <urn:uuid:b450d8b4-669f-47a8-a57c-2ce8e4855674> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://www.driverandguide.com/profile?id=1031 | 2020-09-26T18:52:13Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400244353.70/warc/CC-MAIN-20200926165308-20200926195308-00609.warc.gz | en | 0.975586 | 731 |

When it comes animal-related injuries, it might seem difficult to know where to start, or who is liable for such damage. In the case of dangerous pets, different states have clear-cut rules in defining how to address this issue. If you’ve been victim of a dog bite, speak to a Hollywood dog bite lawyer. Florida possesses its own statutes and laws that indicate what constitutes as a dangerous dog and who is liable in these situations.
Under Florida’s Dangerous Dog Statute, an aggressive dog is characterized by:
Florida does not consider a dog dangerous in the following scenarios:
A dog’s owner has a responsibility to address the dangerous nature of their dog. In Florida, this comes with taking extra precautions in keeping the public safe:
Dangerous dog owners are responsible for the actions of their animal while in public places and while legally in the presence of other individuals on their premises. The owner is liable for all damages caused by their dog, even if they weren’t aware their dog is dangerous.
The only circumstance in which the owner would not be completely liable is if the victim’s negligence caused the incident. Florida practices comparative negligence, which assigns each party a percentage of fault depending on the details of the incident. This includes ignoring dangerous dog signs and warnings posted on the premises (unless the victim is under six-years-old).
Violating any rules dictated under Florida’s Dangerous Dog Statute results in penalty.
If a dangerous dog attacks and injures you without any sort of provocation, you can sue the dog’s owner. When filing a lawsuit, you can sue for the following damages:
Damages caused by dog attacks can be debilitating and emotionally scarring. If you have suffered injury from a dangerous dog, you can seek compensation for the damages it caused.

Overwatch’s annual Archive event is off and running with brand new skins, emotes, and other cosmetics and has brought back the classic Uprising, Retribution, and Storm Rising arcade missions from previous years. For the first time, Blizzard has not added a new story to play through, instead opting to incorporate challenge missions that are twists on those original missions that will unlock each week of the event. These modes do not change the objectives of the missions but instead will change how you play them. The first weekend’s challenges take place on Uprising. Here are some tips and tricks to beating the challenges.
Molten Cores’ enemies all will drop a pool of lava surrounding the area where they were killed. The lava acts in the same way as Torbjorn’s ultimate, hence the name, except that it doesn’t damage you quite as fast as in multiplayer. Do not let that get you overconfident, though, as it can still take down your health in critical situations.
First, your team of four is going to need a reliable team composition to get past this challenge. With the pools of lava appearing once you kill Null Sector, you are going to want to favor range characters. Soldier: 76, McCree, Torbjorn, Orisa, Baptiste, Ashe, Sigma, Bastion, Ana, Hanzo, and Zenyatta preferably stand out from the crowd. You will usually want one tank, two damage, and one support character when you start, but your team can mix and match to suit their preferences.
On the side of characters, not recommended are Brigitte, Doomfist, D.Va, Reinhardt, Genji, Tracer, Reaper, and Winston. These heroes particularly do not fit this challenge well because of their reliance on getting close to enemies, and they have abilities that could easily push them into lava pools.
Glass Cannon’s challenge is that your damage is increased, but at the cost of your health being decreased. The increase in damage makes any hero an instant kill threat. Still, if not careful, they can become a liability with resurrection times continually taking longer the more times you go down.
Generally, you are going to want players that tend to survive drawn-out battles. Suggested heroes include Reaper, Mercy, Reinhardt, Torbjorn, Sigma, Lucio, Mei, Orisa, Moira, Baptiste, and Roadhog. I usually would include Wrecking Ball in here, but there isn’t much room for him to reliably move around in his ball form, so he is not recommended here.
I had better success in this mode using two tanks, one damage, and one support. With the decreased health, you do not necessarily need to have a ton of healing, just enough to keep your team alive combined with whatever shields you use. Reaper is excellent at refilling his health quickly, so he is probably the most recommended hero in this mode.
On the side of heroes not recommended for Glass Cannon is Wrecking Ball, D.Va, Tracer, Doomfist, Genji, Zenyatta, Winston, and Pharah. As you can tell, dive characters are not great for Glass Cannon because of their tendency to get out into areas on their own. If they go down in the middle of the fight, it leaves the team having to work themselves into precarious situations to save them. Take this mission as slow and safe as possible to ensure success. | <urn:uuid:372592f5-b9a6-41d2-bec7-6d6ef7e23cd3> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://www.gamepur.com/guides/overwatch-archives-uprising-challenge-missions-tips-and-tricks | 2020-09-26T18:16:49Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400244353.70/warc/CC-MAIN-20200926165308-20200926195308-00609.warc.gz | en | 0.95605 | 717 |
The number of personal records compromised by data breaches in California surged to 18.5 million in 2013, up more than six times from the year before, according to a report published on Tuesday by the state's Attorney General.
There were 167 breaches reported during the year, up 28 percent from 2012. The massive increase in the number of compromised records came as a result of two major breaches -- the loss of credit card data at Target in December 2013 and the cyber attack on LivingSocial in April 2013.
Those two breaches concerned around 70 million and 50 million records respectively nationwide and they rank among the largest data breaches so far experienced. Collectively, they impacted 7.5 million Californians.
Just over half of all breaches were caused by intrusions into computer networks carrying sensitive data, either by hacking or through malware that stole data. Just over a quarter were due to physical loss or theft of computers, data drives or paper containing unencrypted personal information, 18 percent were attributed to unintentional errors and 4 percent to data misuse.
As for what was lost, Social Security number breaches occurred in just under half of all cases followed by payment card details in 38 percent and medical information in 19 percent.
In the report, Attorney General Kamala Harris calls for increased use of encryption by companies and agencies to safeguard the personal information of consumers.
"Data breaches pose a serious threat to the privacy, finances and personal security of California consumers," Harris said. "I strongly encourage more use of encryption to significantly reduce the risk of data breaches."
And she takes to task retailers, who have been slow adopting new chip-and-PIN payment card technology.
The transition to chip-based payments is expected to accelerate in the remainder of this year and through 2015, in part because of a growing number of data breaches and because retailers will start being liable for fraud conducted on magnetic stripe-based payments from October next year.
Chip-and-PIN payments and those supported by new technologies like Apple Pay rely on a token that substitutes the card number in the retailer's network. The token is of little use if stolen and should make it much more difficult for cyber criminals to steal payment card details from terminals in stores.
Under California law, companies are required to notify the state Attorney General's office of each breach that affects at least 500 California residents. The report was compiled from those notifications.

CO2 Laser Skin Resurfacing Houston
About CO2 Laser Skin Resurfacing
After the age of 20, your skin produces 1% less collagen each year. When combined with the cumulative effects of sun exposure, unwelcome lines and brown spots are inevitable. There’s now an effective solution to remove the signs of aging from your face, chest and hands!
CO2 laser skin resurfacing is ideal for the improvement in the appearance of pore size and skin tone and texture, giving you the youthful looking appearance you’ve always wanted. With our cutting edge laser system, dramatic results are possible without the lengthy downtime associated with an invasive facelift or other, fully-ablative laser treatments. This in-office treatment takes less than 30 minutes and provides remarkable results you will be happy to show off.
How It Works
This fractional technology uses microbeams of energy to create areas of affected tissue that extend through the skin’s epidermis into the dermis while leaving the surrounding skin unharmed resulting in faster healing. This triggers the body’s natural healing process to clear away old, damaged skin cells and create new, healthy cells to take the place of the cells that have been cleared away. The laser also stimulates the production of new collagen & elastin deep within your skin. Over time, this will build up the support structure under your skin resulting in a younger and smoother looking appearance.
Technology We Use
We use the advanced Smartskin+™ Laser System from Cynosure®, the leader in aesthetic lasers. Smartskin+™ is unique in that the system allows us to tailor skin resurfacing treatments to meet your expectations. For example, you may opt for 2 or 3 ‘lighter’ treatments with very good outcomes and limited downtime, or you may want a single treatment that has a slightly longer downtime but outstanding results.
What To Expect On The Day Of Treatment
Before your treatment, Dr. Sami will typically apply a topical anesthetic over the area being treated. Once you are ready for the treatment, the topical anesthetic will be removed and the skin will be washed. You will be provided eye shields to protect yourself from the light during treatment. You will hear a scanning noise from the laser scanner as the handpiece is guided over your face. You may feel slight heat or a tingling sensation during the treatment. Depending on the size of the area, treatments take just 15-30 minutes. Immediately after the treatment, the area will be cooled for at least 20 minutes and we will apply an occlusive ointment which should be used over the next few days to decrease healing time.
Post Treatment Instructions For Skin Resurfacing
- Immediately after treatment, it is common for your skin to feel warm and appear to be sunburned. Swelling and pinpoint bleeding may also accompany this.
- Ice/cold packs should be used as instructed for swelling and discomfort.
- To decrease healing time and minimize discomfort an occlusive ointment should be applied to the treated area.
- Avoid sun exposure during the first few weeks following the procedure. A broad-spectrum (UVA/UVB) sunblock SPF 50 or greater should be used for any transient exposure. If possible, cover treated area with clothing or use a wide brimmed hat to reduce exposure.
Refer to your post-treatment care instructions for more detail.
Frequently Asked Questions
How does the Smartskin+™ Laser System work?
The Smartskin+™ Laser System delivers a series of tiny microscopic laser beams to the skin. This fractionated energy penetrates the skin to clear away old and damaged skin cells. The body’s natural healing process then builds new healthy cells to take their place. The laser also stimulates the production of new collagen deep within your skin, giving you a more youthful looking appearance.
How many treatments will I need?
Typically, only one treatment is needed for desired results. However, since treatments can be adjusted to your cosmetic and downtime expectations, you can opt for two or three “lighter” sessions. Your doctor will determine the best course of treatment during your consultation.
What does the procedure feel like?
A topical anesthetic is generally applied before the procedure, so there is minimal feeling during the procedure. Some patients report feeling heat and tingling as the laser scanner moves across your face. The entire face can be treated in less than 30 minutes.
How long will the results last?
With proper skin care and protection, results often last years.
What should I expect immediately following treatment?
Immediately after the treatment, your skin will feel warm and appear to be sunburned. You may also experience some swelling, which is completely normal. Your body naturally starts working by replacing the aged skin cells with new ones. After a few days, you will notice healthier-looking skin and a more even complexion. Over time, collagen will regenerate and restore the supporting structure of your skin, giving you the smooth skin you are looking for.
When can I resume my daily activities?
Since Smartskin+™ delivers micro pulses of energy you will experience a significantly shorter recovery time than with fully ablative lasers. Each tiny hole will quickly heal and in a few days you can return to your normal lifestyle. Treatments are adjustable so downtime will depend on the treatment you receive.
What are the risks?
Fractional skin resurfacing has a faster recovery and has fewer side effects when compared to fully ablative resurfacing. Treatments with the Smartskin+™ Laser System are generally well tolerated. During your consultation, we will explain any potential risks and help you minimize them based on your complete medical and skin history.
How much does the treatment cost?
Smartskin+™ is unique in that the system allows us to tailor the treatments to your needs. You may opt for 2 or 3 “lighter” treatments with very good outcomes and limited downtime, or you may want a single treatment that has a slightly longer downtime but outstanding results. During your consultation we will determine your treatment plan and discuss the cost of the treatment with you.

Internet Society Liaison Report to the IAB 12 Aug 2015 Topics: I. WSIS+10 Review II. IANA transition III. IETF Policy Programme IV. Fellowship to IETF 93 V. GAIA Working Group Presentation I. WSIS+10 Review The Internet Society has submitted a written contribution to the UN General Assembly WSIS+10 Review to be held later in December, in New York. In our submission, we highlight the two main outcomes we are aiming for: • Preserving the consensus of the 2005 Tunis Agenda that recognizes the distributed model of governance of the Internet where each stakeholder group has its own role and set of responsibilities, while all working together; • Laying the foundations of an inclusive, people-centered and development-oriented Information Society for the next decade, articulated around three main pillars: 1/ collaborative networks for human empowerment and sustainable development, 2/ collaborative security for trust-worthy environments, and 3/ collaborative governance where open frameworks lead to successful discussions. For further background information, you can also read this blog post . http://www.internetsociety.org/doc/internet-society-written- submission-wsis10-non-paper http://www.internetsociety.org/blog/public-policy/2015/07/internet- society-isoc-contribution-wsis10-written-consultation II. IANA transition The Internet Society released a paper entitled “Perspectives on the IANA Stewardship Transition”. Through the paper, the Internet Society seeks to provide some context for the criteria the NTIA will use to review and evaluate the IANA Stewardship Transition proposal once it is submitted by the IANA Coordination Group. The paper can be found here: http://www.internetsociety.org/doc/ perspectives-iana-stewardship-transition-principles III. IETF Policy Programme The IETF Policy Programme had another successful outing at the IETF 93 meeting in Prague. Fourteen policymakers from countries in Africa, Europe, North America and Latin America participated in the programme. Over four days, experts from the IETF community briefed participants on topics that included aspects of the Domain Name System, IP routing, Interconnection and traffic exchange, Security and Privacy protocols, as well as specific topics of interest identified by the group. The IETF Policymakers Programme was started in 2012 to introduce policymakers from developing countries to the IETF standards making environment and to foster dialogue and information exchange with IETF leadership, experts and engineers. Preparations are currently underway for the programme at the IETF 94 meeting in Yokohama, Japan. Information on the IETF Policy Programme is available here: http:// www.internetsociety.org/what-we-do/education-and-leadership-programmes/ ietf-and-ois-programmes/internet-society-fellowship-5 IV. Fellowship to IETF 93 The Global Engagement team brought another successful cohort of Fellows to the IETF. This fellowship round included 14 individuals from 10 countries in Africa, Asia-Pacific, Latin America & the Caribbean, and Europe. The round also featured closer integration between the Fellows to the IETF, IETF Policy Programme, and CGI.br Fellows. The call for applications for the Fellowship to IETF 94 has closed, and final selections are currently in progress. We would also like to take this opportunity to thank IETF leaders Fred Baker, Olafur Gudmundsson, Alvaro Retana, Warren Kumari, Daniel King, and Philip Eardley for their contributions as mentors in the Fellowship programme. V. GAIA Research Group Presentation Niel Harper (ISOC) and Walter Pienciak (IEEE) presented to the GAIA research group on the ISOC-IEEE Open Wireless Project. This is a joint initiative between ISOC and IEEE to develop interactive online learning materials on building wireless mesh networks. The online materials will be used in a ‘Train-the-Trainer’ model to build capabilities in rural and remote communities to design and deploy wireless community networks to increase access to the Internet. This initiative builds upon the award-winning Wireless for Communities (W4C) initiative that has been delivered by ISOC and the Digital Empowerment Foundation (DEF) in Asia- Pacific.

I. Public Comments ==================== Public comment processes: https://www.icann.org/public-comments#open-public Proposal for Armenian Script Root Zone Label Generation Rules (LGR) https://www.icann.org/public-comments/proposal-armenian-lgr-2015-07-22-en Close date: 31 August 2015 Cross Community Working Group on Enhancing ICANN Accountability 2nd Draft Report (Work Stream 1) https://www.icann.org/public-comments/ccwg-accountability-2015-08-03-en Close date: 12 September 2015 II. Upcoming topics that could be relevant =========================================== Transition ---------- Cross Community Working Group on Enhancing ICANN Accountability (CCWG) The CCWG held an interim meeting in Paris on the week before the IETF meeting. The meeting was deemed very successful and the CCWG was able to push forward their proposal. Now, the CCWG has published the second draft of its proposal. This CCWG proposal is not directly related to IANA, but it is about ICANN the organisation in the light of the IANA stewardship transition away from the US Government. There have been two webinars conducted about the proposal in early August. The slides, recordings and transcripts can be found at https://community.icann.org/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=54692681 The proposal tries to address a number of items. These items are split into two phases (Work stream 1 and 2). The Work Stream 1 is supposed to be ready during the IANA stewardship transition and the work stream 2 will take longer. In the work stream 1, there are four building blocks that need to be in place in the time of the IANA stewardship transition. The building blocks are the following. * Principles (i.e. the Constitution) – The Principles guarantee the Mission, commitments and core values of ICANN through the Bylaws. * Empowered Community (i.e. the People and its Powers) – The Community refers to Supporting Organizations and Advisory Committees, which can jointly take action should ICANN breach the Principles. * ICANN Board of Directors (i.e. the executive) – The ICANN Board is responsible fordirecting ICANN’s affairs and is held accountable to the community through the community’s powers. * Independent Appeals and Review Mechanisms (i.e. the judiciary) – The appeals mechanisms confer the power to review and provide redress, as needed and the reformed Independent Review Panel that is more accessible and at lower cost, with a 7-member standing panel that serves and an independent judiciary and whose decisions are binding on ICANN. The proposal is relatively large body of work and has many details (180 pages). You can find the report at https://www.icann.org/en/system/ files/files/ccwg-draft-2-proposal-work-stream-1-recs-03aug15-en.pdf III. (If relevant) upcoming meeting topics of importance ========================================================= ICANN board will hold a retreat between 26th-28th September, 2015. Next ICANN meeting is 18th-22nd October, 2015.

IANA Liaison Report - 12 August 2015 2014 SLA Deliverables Update: - ICANN met 100% of processing goal times for the June 2015 monthly statistics, exceeding the SLA goal to meet 90% of processing goal times. These times include the steps that the IANA Department has control over and not time it is waiting on requesters, document authors or other experts. - The external third-party auditors have begun the annual audit process for the IANA functions. Part of this audit fulfills the deliverable in the IETF SLA for a review of processing protocol parameter requests. Other News: - In addition to the booklet describing the IANA functions mentioned in last month’s update, informational videos based on presentations given at the ICANN 51 and 52 meetings were recently published. See: http://www.iana.org/about - ICANN’s Annual Customer Satisfaction survey will begin in late August.

RSE Update * Format project draft-iab-xml2rfcv2 is out for community comment. So far, no comments have been received. The comment period closes 2 September 2015. For the various v3-related drafts, the focus right now is on drafting the correct language to indicate these versions of the documents neither require nor expect backwards compatibility, and on finding a CSS person to help move that draft towards a more publishable state. Since the drafts must go through as a bundle, getting that draft, the weakest of the set, ready is the next major item to accomplish. * The Operator community and the RFC Series The RSE and the ISE held informal conversations with the Global BCOP (Best Common Operating Practices) group during IETF 93. The goal is still to send some of their documents through the Independent Submission Stream. Of particular interest, the NANOG organization has divorced itself from any formal document publication; the BCOPs previously produced out of that group are searching for a different organization to host and manage the material. * RFC Production Center RFP The RFP process is progressing according to schedule. The RFP was posted on 15 June 2015, and the Q&A period was open through 8 July 2015. The closing date for accepting RFP responses was 3 August; the vendor selection committee will meet and discuss the responses over the next two weeks. The contract is expected to be awarded no later than October 2015. RPC Update * Stats - http://www.rfc-editor.org/reports/ The SLA was not met for July 2015. From the reports page: "Typically, the rate of input to the queue(i.e., documents moved to EDIT) decreases following the Q1 burst; however, we have not seen the usual dip which means processing continues to be impacted. * The RPC is currently working with legal@ietf on two authentication requests. This will bring the subpoena count as it impacts the RFC Editor up to four so far this year.

Heather Flanagan noted that she has not yet seen any comments on draft-iab-xml2rfcv2 on the rfc-interest list. Andrew Sullivan replied that he received one comment supporting the document, but that it was sent directly to the IAB Chair. He noted that the filters on the rfc-interest list prevent non-subscribed addresses from posting to the list. Robert Sparks asked if those messages were put into a moderation queue, or if they were discarded. Heather replied that she was not sure; she will check with the list moderators. Several IAB members recommended that such messages be put into a moderation queue rather than be discarded.
Cindy Morgan reported that the final change of i1b.org from Dreamhost to an IETF server managed by AMS is scheduled for Tuesday, 18 August 2015. She will send an email to the IAB before the change, asking people to refrain from updating the internal wiki for a brief period so that no data is lost during the transition. Passwords and mediawiki accounts should remain intact, but users have to be re- subscribed to the mailing lists.
4. IETF 94 Plenary
The IAB re-confirmed their support for having a joint plenary with the IESG at IETF 94. Jari Arkko asked Cindy Morgan to add an item to the next day’s informal IESG telechat on the same topic. Cindy Morgan will also send an email to the IAB and IESG to discuss the timing of the agenda.
The IAB briefly discussed potential technical topics for the plenary.
5. Comment on RFC 1984 to BCP

Nigerian students studying in St. Vincent and the Grenadines will not be prevented from voting in the upcoming elections simply because they are students.
“The law is very clear on the fact that a Commonwealth citizen who is residing in the country for a period of one year can be registered as a voter,” Supervisor of Elections Sylvia Findlay told I-Witness News on Monday.
“So, for our purposes, we will not discriminate against somebody because the person is a student. But as along as the person has been living here legally for one year…” she said.
Leader of the Opposition Arnhim Eustace told a rally of his New Democratic Party in Redemption Sharpes on Saturday that he has inquired of Findlay about whether the students would be allowed register as voters.
“She say she go look into it. I haven’t heard the outcome yet, but what I want to say, Nigeria is a Commonwealth country and if you resided here for a year from a Commonwealth country, you can end up voting legally.”
Eustace said he wanted to know what decision has been taken in St. Vincent and the Grenadines on the question of the eligibility of Nigerian students voting.
He said there is a court case involving Nigerian medical students in St. Kitts who voted in that country’s general elections earlier this year.
“And the question is whether they are students living or whether they are really residing in St. Kitts. We have to answer that questions here too,” Eustace said.
Findlay noted to I-Witness News that a person can only vote if they are registered as a voter.
“If there is a question being raised as to whether those students will be allowed to vote, the first thing is that those persons can only be allowed to vote if they were registered as a voter.
“And I am saying, if they can provide evidence to the Electoral Office that they are, first of all bona fide Commonwealth citizens, secondly, that they have resided here legally for at least one year,
and they show up to be registered, we will register them, like any other commonwealth citizen who lives here.”
Findlay noted that a Commonwealth citizen must live in St. Vincent and the Grenadines for one year continuously to qualify for voter registration.
“But clearly, of the person is a student, then the person may have left the country for a brief period. Here is where the institution of learning also will come into play…” Findlay told I-Witness News.
“It has to do with the evidence that the person brings forward. If the Electoral Office doesn’t think that they have enough information, then clearly, they will not register the person. As long as we feel that we have enough information to register the person, we will,” Findlay said. | <urn:uuid:bd3410a9-286e-41b0-a7d4-559da193b13e> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://www.iwnsvg.com/2015/09/07/nigerian-students-can-vote-in-st-vincent-if/ | 2020-09-26T16:59:45Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400244353.70/warc/CC-MAIN-20200926165308-20200926195308-00609.warc.gz | en | 0.969743 | 601 |
From the Foreword by Peter Lovesey: I believe Christmas has inspired more short stories than any other theme.
There's nothing like a good mix of crime and Christmas to put you in the holiday spirit, and Soho Crime has come up with a winning collection of short stories for a wide range of reading preferences.
These eighteen stories are written by bestselling and award-winning authors. With crime and Christmas as their common themes, they range from laugh-filled to heartwarming to the most hardboiled of holiday noir. They're also set all over the world: Sweden, England, South Korea, Thailand, Cuba, Ireland, the United States-- and the list goes on.
These stories do run the gamut of styles, and some of the authors contributed something different from what their fans may be used to. For example, Gary Corby, who writes the wonderful Athenian mysteries set in ancient Greece, has a very different subject and setting this time. (I do enjoy it when my favorite authors "branch out" from time to time.)
There are so many gems in The Usual Santas, but I will at least mention the ones that shone the brightest for me: Helene Tursten's "An Elderly Lady Seeks Peace at Christmas Time," Mick Herron's "The Usual Santas," Ed Lin's "Martin," and Colin Cotterill's "There's Only One Father Christmas, Right?" And I feel guilty for not listing them all.
There's also an added bonus to reading a short story collection like this. Have you wondered if you'd like these authors' books? Then this collection is an excellent starting point for you. Don't be surprised if you find yourself heading to the bookstore or library with a long list of new authors after reading The Usual Santas. Oh, the wonderful reading you have in store!

Lexington VA Health Care System
Lexington VAHCS Optometry Residency Program
The Ocular Disease and Low Vision Rehabilitation Optometry Residency Program at the Lexington Veterans Affairs Health Care System is a 12-month (52-week) post-graduate clinical education program with four positions available. It is accredited by the Accreditation Council on Optometry Education and affiliated with the Indiana University School of Optometry.
The program was established on July 1, 2008, with one residency position and expanded to four residency positions beginning July 1, 2012. It is a twelve-month, post-graduate clinical education program in which the resident is an employee of the VA Medical Center facility and a clinical staff member in the Optometry Clinic. The Optometry Clinic at the Lexington VA Medical Center is the primary training site for the resident. The resident will also spend time at the University of Kentucky’s Department of Ophthalmology. Affiliated with Indiana University School of Optometry, the program provides residents a high-quality learning experience.
The program focuses on advanced competency in the clinical skills and scholarly development of the residents by exposing the residents to direct patient care enhanced by lectures, conferences, presentations, and consultation with other medical services. Residents will become proficient in ocular disease diagnosis and management, and comanaging systemic conditions that have ocular manifestations. The residents will also attend weekly Grand Rounds and Fluorescein Angiography conference at the University of Kentucky's Department of Ophthalmology during the academic year, with opportunities to participate in the department's sub-specialty clinics. Residents will also participate in and lead daily educational exercises with the optometry staff and student externs, which are structured to foster an evidence-based medicine approach.
The Lexington VA Health Care System is a dual-division medical center. The optometry clinic is located at the Franklin R. Sousley campus, which was established in 1931, and is on the west side of Lexington on Leestown Road. It occupies almost 5,000 square feet in renovated space, which includes nine examination lanes, a clinic conference area, and four specialty testing rooms for equipment such as a retinal camera, OCT, Humphrey and Goldmann visual field analyzers, specialty contact lens fitting sets including RGP and scleral lenses, and low vision fitting equipment. This program is uniquely designed to offer residents the opportunity to participate in several specialty clinics. In addition to primary eye care examinations, the residents provide low vision outpatient blind rehabilitation services to visually impaired Veterans, vision therapy services to combat Veterans with a history of polytrauma or traumatic brain injury, and medical contact lens fittings. This multi-faceted experience helps to produce well-rounded, capable physicians who feel confident to enter the workforce and pursue a variety of career paths.
The didactic portion of the residency has been developed to help the residents become proficient in reading and applying medical literature. Residents can expect to enjoy discussions and books about the importance of evidence-based medicine, as well as medical ethics and the arts of doctoring and teaching. These lessons are put to clinical practice while precepting student externs in the second half of the year. We also routinely read medical journal articles and meet to discuss practical applications.

Keep Calm and Carry On Paying
As a result of Covid-19 the Payment System Regulator (PSR) has updated its expectations regarding the timing of some of its workstreams, with the current focus being to ensure that payment systems continue to work for everyone and that adequate protections are maintained for those making and receiving payments during this time. This is particularly important given there has been a push for more people to use contactless and card-based payment methods, whilst there being a recognition of the need to protect the supply of cash for those who do not have access to other means of payment. In that respect, the PSR has been working with other stakeholders to ensure the continued access to cash for consumers who need it or want it.
PSR programme of work
The PSR was established in 2015 to regulate the systems used in the UK to facilitate payments. In order to fulfil its role, the PSR was given a number of functions and powers, and like the other UK financial services regulators, has an ongoing programme of work as set out in its annual business plan.
In relation to Covid-19, the PSR has confirmed that it has been working together with the government, Bank of England, Financial Conduct Authority and Competition & Markets Authority to provide industry with guidance and coordinated support during the pandemic. The PSR has also established a webpage where Covid-19-related updates will be published.
PSR’s 2020/2021 Business Plan
The PSR’s 2020/2021 Business Plan was drafted before the disruption caused by Covid-19, with the key projects being a continuation of existing work:
- Support of Pay.UK’s development of the New Payments Architecture to deliver a resilient digital payments platform to benefit payers and payees
- Continued access to cash and ATM networks for those who still use cash in an increasingly digital world
- Assessing whether the market for card-acquiring services works well and is supported by effective competition
- Continued work to prevent authorised push payment scams and implementing a framework to protect victims
- Assessing whether Payment systems and markets are more competitive and/or can deliver better outcomes for users
Change in focus following Covid-19
However, as a result of Covid-19, the PSR recognises that businesses should be focusing their efforts on supporting their customers as best they can at this difficult time. Whilst none have been particularly significant, the PSR has taken a number of actions to help support businesses’ efforts in getting through the Covid-19 pandemic:
- The call for input on the PSR’s Competition and Innovation in the UK’s New Payments Architecture was extended from 24 March to 1 May.
- Banks required to implement the Confirmation of Payee (CoP) obligations by 31 March have been told that in order to maintain the resilience of the banking industry at the present time, if they were unable to fully implement CoP by the deadline, they should still take appropriate steps to roll it out, even if it takes them past the end of March.
- The PSR also set out its expectation that customers who would have benefitted from the timely implementation of CoP should not otherwise be disadvantaged by any Covid-19-related delay, including that banks should provide refunds for victims of fraud if timely implementation of CoP would have prevented the fraud from happening.
- Increasing the speed with which the PSR pays its own suppliers.
What’s happening next?
These developments are welcome, and show a degree of pragmatism by the PSR in helping businesses during this unprecedented period. The PSR has confirmed that if and when circumstances develop further, they will look to take additional actions as appropriate. | <urn:uuid:69d0cdbe-aff6-40b5-b8cd-151e606e10d0> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://www.linklaters.com/fr-be/insights/blogs/fintechlinks/2020/may/keep-calm-and-carry-on-paying | 2020-09-26T18:42:59Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400244353.70/warc/CC-MAIN-20200926165308-20200926195308-00609.warc.gz | en | 0.971946 | 769 |
