Life is messy.
With school, work, and other life events, actually keeping up with what is going on is almost impossible. But that’s why the good Lord invented organization. Organization is a life saver that makes the world go round. Some people use one form of planner to organize everything. Some people -me- use a bunch of planners to stay organized. And with my new term starting and with spring cleaning being a thing right now, I thought I would share with you what I think are the best forms of planners to stay on top of your busy life.
How to Organize Your Life – Results May Vary
Yeah, here’s a preview of my birthday week. 18 Things I Learned at 18 will be up April 24th!
While I am a total technie, nothing beats an old-fashioned planner. I use the Gallery Leather Weekly Planner and it is really great. In my planner I put in non-time-specific events, flight information, penciled-in events, birthdays, and a few more things that aren’t set in stone. I like this layout because when I open my planner I can see my week at a glance with things that aren’t school or work.
2. Clear App
Well, now all my secrets are revealed!
This is my baby. I have the Clear app for my phone, iPad, and Mac. That way I can update my daily tasks on any of my devices. I organize them by day of the week and it is the most helpful thing ever. This way I don’t get bogged down by a long list of things for the week, but can organize them into days. It’s great for packing lists, so you can just tick off items as you put them in your suitcase. Also, it’s electronic so I don’t have to pencil anything in.
So much Women in World HIstory homework…
I know I’ve discussed this app before, but it is incredibly wonderful. Organize your semester, classes, professors, and assignments in this amazing iStudiez app. Just like Clear, this can be used on my Mac, phone, and iPad, meaning I can access my class schedule and assignments no matter what device I am on. As someone who is taking 16 credits, it is nice to have a place that organizes my school work so neatly.
4. Mac Calendar
As you can see, I have no free time ever.
Time in class, professor’s office hours, work hours, and every other event in my life that happens on a regular basis is recorded in Apple’s Calendar app. If you haven’t guessed already, I am a pure Apple user (and I recommend everyone else should be because it has been amazing) and I love the Calendar app. It lays out everything so nicely and syncs to all your devices, meaning you can access it anywhere.
5. Reminders App
Yes, I am looking into self-publishing. Yes, mother, I am getting my rental agreement this weekend.
Okay, so the Apple Reminders app is actually a new addition to my organization system. I have lots of tasks that would work well for my Clear app, but are so far ahead in time that putting them there would be ridiculous. So that’s why I use the Reminders app. Tasks I need to complete in a couple weeks, list of things to complete when a certain event happens in the future, and toys to buy when I have the money. Something I didn’t think I would need, but has been very helpful in the task that is making my life easier.
And those are my organization tips! Organizing life can be very difficult, but I hope I have introduced some systems that work well for me. May one of them work for you, or feel free to just use my system! Whatever it might be, choose something that works for you.
What are some organization tips you’d like to share? I have yet to find one for money/receipts and I’d appreciate some feedback!
Well, I am off to enjoy the beautiful Eugene sunshine and read about microeconomics while dealing with a minuscule porcupine rolling around in my throat.
Stay classy, Internet,

How individuality in marriage scared me – and how I learned to enjoy it
As we’ve seen in the last article, it is the accepting and supporting of the uniqueness and individuality of each family member which creates a healthy, functional family that lives together in unity.
Today I want to share what I’ve learned in this area within our marriage.
“Benny, we have a problem! “
He looked at me puzzled, curious to hear my thoughts.
I told him: Well, I’ve come to realize I am a ship and you are a lighthouse!
Now he looked amused. “And why is this a problem?” he asked.
“Well. You are so different to me. I am made very different from you. I love to be out on the high sea. I am comfortable to transport either many people or merchandise. I enjoy the movement of the waves and the freedom of the wide sea. (metaphorically speaking)
You are this big, stable lighthouse. You are firm in your position, secure and trustworthy. But you are definitely not a ship. So how can our lives truly fit together? “
I knew that we do have many things in common. We have the same values and priorities in life and we understand each other’s heart.
And still, I was really struggling with the realization of us being so different.
On that day he told me:
“Well, I will do everything to let you be this amazing, beautiful ship, free to be out on the sea and be who you are created to be… Will you do the same for me?“
Right then, I didn’t really know how this could ever look like.
These are the main points I’ve discovered on this journey:
Acknowledge the differences
On that mentioned day, when I truly realized that we are so different – I made a big step into the right direction.
Until then, these differences scared me.It was absolutely foreign to my own way of thinking, that they would ever fit together. They made me feel worried, sometimes even doubtful, wether I married the right person. But when this question arose in my heart “shouldn’t he be a ship too – or is it ok if he rather is a lighthouse?”, for the first time, I truly faced the reality of him being a very different person than me.
In our situation, these differences are mostly based on our individuality, our personality. Cross-cultural marriages have the additional challenge of facing the very different culture, background and upbringing.
Accept the differences
I’ve learned that the process of accepting the difference is fundamental for a mature relationship.
I’ve learned that a mature person in marriage is one who has differentiated herself from her spouse. One who is able to establish clearly marked ego boundaries. A mature person grows into a person with individuality – and this individuality is equal to the person’s own identity.“
What does that mean?
Well, as a little example:
One day, I got a call and the person on the phone wanted to know something I had to ask Benny about. I simply handed him the phone, and obliged him that way to talk on the phone, even though he wasn’t prepared for that at all. He was upset with me –this in turn made me angry.
“Why would he make such a big deal out of that detail? I didn’t do anything wrong for him to be upset at me!” This happened at various times – until the day I realized something.
I told him “I am sorry I have put you into that situation while knowing you hate it. I still don’t know why this is such a big matter to you. But I am sorry I ignored your feelings about it.“
I don’t spontaneously hand him the phone any more. I acknowledge him feeling so differently about that matter than I do.
Celebrate the differences
As you see, the difference is bigger than just the “man-woman” thing. We would be missing something, if we would reduce our differences to “well, I am a man and you are a woman, therefore…”. Even though it is important to be aware of this reality, there is more to it. There is this unique DNA every person carries within. There is no other person exactly like you, having exactly the same DNA – the same experiences, the same dreams and the same perceptions.
In his book “the family”, John Bradshaw compares a healthy marriage to two people playing music together. Both are playing their own instrument. Both play the same song. However, they do so with their own unique skills, playing their part of the melody perfectly. Each one is independent and committed to play their melody the best way they can with their instrument, their unique skills, whole and complete.
Celebrate, encourage and strengthen the differences
I’ve seen couples who recognized their differences. They realized that they are very different to each other.
However, I’ve also met couples whose feeling about these differences is similar to the one I described in the beginning of the Article:
It scares them. They try to reduce the other person to a copy of themselves. They wonder, if they married the right person. They assume that the way the other person thinks, what he or she does, has to be because of their past experiences, their culture, their lack of maturity or something like that.
This doesn’t give the other person the feeling of being known and seen, as I described in that article, where I write about truly seeing our children.
To truly celebrate, encourage and support the differences is something very different.
In fact, I learn from Benny how this looks like… He’s an amazing example.
The more I know who I am, what my strengths are, what I am able to do… He supports me with everything he has. He loves to see me thrive in who I am and flourish in what I’m good at. Adding to that, he frequently makes me feel special and loved for being me. And he gives everything to make me succeed. In fact, he is the one investing hours every week to correct my articles in German and English for this Website.. He is the one who celebrates my success and encourages me to go further in who I am… to become this ship I know I am… beyond what I could ever be without him.
I am learning to do the same for him. Today, I simply love who he is. It doesn’t scare me anymore, to be married to a lighthouse, and not a fellow ship. I admire his stability, his calmness, his strength. I respect his need for rest, his need for times alone, his lacking desire for adventure and movement. I enjoy his perfectionist way of doing things. I admire him for his excellence.
We often tell each other how amazing we think the other is in his unicity.
I am so glad that I understood that this uniqueness and being different is something beautiful | <urn:uuid:82bbd10e-c9c7-4513-9ec8-47bbaabe9c60> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://www.familythatmatters.com/individuality-marriage/ | 2020-09-29T03:37:36Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600401624636.80/warc/CC-MAIN-20200929025239-20200929055239-00209.warc.gz | en | 0.980738 | 1,493 |
Nature’s positive impact on our wellbeing has been highlighted in a new report, which reveals people living close to green spaces are more likely to be fit and healthy. Set amid 25-acres of public open space, Oaklands Hamlet is a highly sought-after new development located on the outskirts of Chigwell, Essex by homebuilder Countryside. The latest release of luxury four and five-bedroom houses occupy a prime position overlooking an expanse of green space, offering buyers the ideal opportunity to reap the benefits of living so close to nature.
Nestled between Hainault Forest Golf Club and swathes of open countryside, yet just 30 minutes from central London by tube from Hainault underground station, Oaklands Hamlet boasts an enviable location. Evocative of a traditional hamlet, half of the 53-acre development is dedicated to public open green space, with two country parks, a bandstand, a cycleway and a bridleway. Ponds provide a thriving habitat for wildlife, while an attractive village green is ideal for mingling with neighbours or family and friends.
Chris Bladon, Managing Director of Countryside’s New Homes and Communities Eastern Region said: “Oaklands Hamlet really does offer the best of both worlds. The development enjoys an idyllic rural location, which is close to London and provides views of Canary Wharf. The extensive green space throughout the development complements the surrounding landscape, and creates a secluded, peaceful ambience.”
A variety of four and five-bedroom properties are available, boasting an exceptional internal specification. The individually designed kitchens are fitted with stylish handleless units, high quality stone worktops, and a full range of appliances, including two single ovens, and an integrated fridge/freezer, dishwasher, washing machine and wine chiller. The bathrooms and en suites feature modern white sanitary ware, ceramic floor and wall tiling, and chrome fixtures and fittings.
One of the new house designs is the Walmsley, a generously-sized, four-bedroom detached family home. The Walmsley’s open-plan, light-filled kitchen and dining room features two sets of double doors, one leading to the garden, and the other to a separate living room. A cloakroom and garage complete the ground floor. On the first floor, an expansive master bedroom benefits from fitted wardrobes and a luxurious en suite shower room, while the remaining bedrooms share the modern family bathroom.
The historic town of Chigwell offers a fantastic range of amenities, including designer boutiques, chic shops, cafés, bars and restaurants. Everyday shopping needs are quickly catered for by a Tesco Metro just over a mile from the development, while nearby Romford is home to The Liberty, The Brewery and the Romford Shopping Mall, which offers top retail outlets, restaurants, bowling lanes and a cinema.
Oaklands Hamlet is ideal for families, with a variety of independent and state schools nearby, including Fullwood Primary School, rated ‘Outstanding’ by Ofsted, and Chigwell School, rated ‘Excellent’ by the Independent Schools Inspectorate. There are also a wealth of sporting and leisure activities to enjoy in the area. Hainault Golf Club is next door, while the Topgolf Entertainment Centre in Chigwell also hosts cricket and hockey clubs. Meanwhile just over 2 miles away, Hainault’s Redbridge Sports Centre boasts a state of the art gym, and Fairlop Outdoor Activity Centre offers windsurfing, sailing, canoeing and powerboating.
Despite Oaklands Hamlet’s rural feel, it has excellent transport links into local towns, London and further afield. A bus service, which is free to residents for three months, operates to Hainault Central Line underground station just over two miles away. From Hainault, journeys into London Liverpool Street take just 30 minutes, and Night Tube services run every Friday and Saturday. By car, the A12, M11 and M25 junction 28 near the Dartford Crossing are easily accessible, London City airport is just 13 miles away, and Stansted, Gatwick and Heathrow are all within easy reach. | <urn:uuid:6b51f88a-0032-48b7-b89e-10bd93b657b0> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://www.financedigest.com/get-nearer-to-nature-with-new-homes-at-oaklands-hamlet.html | 2020-09-29T03:37:59Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600401624636.80/warc/CC-MAIN-20200929025239-20200929055239-00209.warc.gz | en | 0.934755 | 866 |
Gossip is typically dismissed as the idle chatter of the masses and something which one should try and avoid. That was until Giselle Bastin started speaking up about it.
“Gossip used to have a masculine and a feminine meaning, but gradually the meaning of the word changed and it was derided as something that only women do and something that is very damaging,” Dr Bastin said.
“Gossip has in fact been very important in shaping our societies.”
Dr Bastin wrote her PhD on gossip, attracting national attention for her analysis of the etymology and history of the word. Commencing work at Flinders in 1993, her attention was soon turned to a study of literature written about the royal family, after a chance conversation with a colleague.
“The industry for royal biography has been enormous since Princess Diana became the subject of international attention,” Dr Bastin said.
“People with a republican leaning often think I must be a mindless monarchist who has never had a thought for herself and is just a fan, but in fact by studying the literature about the monarchy, there is a lot to learn about the way we construct stories and the details that fascinate audiences.”
Dr Bastin’s ability to extrapolate serious cultural observations from material derided or ignored by some is just one of the reasons students recently voted her one of their favourite educators on campus, writing a glowing profile of her work in the Empire Times student magazine.
“I really like students and teaching is very central to what I do, so to get some endorsement from them was really very exciting,” Dr Bastin said.
“Students make my life endlessly interesting.”

An international survey of Australian manufacturing companies confirms that good managers are the key to successful businesses and highlights where Australian managers need to improve.
Management Matters in Australia analyses results from a survey of 439 medium and large firms and compares Australia’s performance with 15 other countries. The study, launched in Melbourne today, was commissioned by the Department of Innovation, Industry, Science and Research and conducted by a team led by Professor Roy Green, Dean of Business at the University of Technology Sydney.
Innovation Minister Kim Carr said: “The report tells us that there is a direct link between management practices and productivity in companies and that the more skilled and educated the managers are, the better their businesses will perform.
“Australia rated sixth out of 15 in the survey of management performance. We lag behind other advanced economies, and over half our firms are outperformed by many of their competitors in India and China. There is clearly considerable room for improvement.
“The results show multinational firms are the best managed and larger operations are often better managed than small and family-owned businesses. This is a challenge for Australia, which has a disproportionate number of smaller firms, and few multinationals.
“Of the three areas assessed, Australia performs well in operational management, but is less strong in people and strategic management.
“If Australian manufacturing and other businesses are to thrive, we must lift the standard of everything we do - from the shop floor to the front office.
“Given the rigour of the international competition, average just isn’t good enough. We wouldn't accept an average result in any other race, and we can’t accept it in this one.
“The race to the top – the race to secure our place at the high-value, knowledge-intensive end of the global value chain – is the most important we will ever enter.
“If we don't put in a strong run, we can kiss the living standards and the way of life we cherish goodbye.
“The Government’s Enterprise Connect has already made a good start helping businesses to improve the way they operate, providing comprehensive business reviews plus access to targeted Government financial assistance programs,” Senator Carr said.

KCC Chairman Graham Gibbens has raised just over £3,600 – more than twice his original target – for his chosen charity, Porchlight, with a four-day hike across the county. He passed through 20 of the 72 KCC Divisions as he walked from Northfleet to Canterbury. Setting off from Ebbsfleet Football Club, over the four days…

This blog in our series focuses on how to deal with Leave campaign negativity in the area of employment, workers’rights and protections, but also includes throwaway snippets on the minimum extra import taxes we could expect after Brexit.
“European employment red tape is strangling our ability to employ people”
So you think it would be any better if Britain left the EU? It would be the same just different bureaucrats. And a lot of the so called red tape protects our workers and boosts productivity. “It’s the EU that guarantees workers their right to paid holiday, parental leave, equal treatment for part time workers, and much more“, highlights the Trade Union Congress (TUC) General Secretary Frances O’Grady in a new report UK Employment Rights and the EU.
The TUC ‘s clear and concise argument for Remain is as follows:
Workers’ rights and protection
By ensuring British workers have decent rights at work, employers have to invest more in their workforce, but it raises productivity. It is a virtuous circle in which well treated workers produce higher value goods and services, thus increasing profits, leading to higher wages and a sense of ownership in the workforce.
Measures to ensure equal pay for equal work have helped women, and similar measures have helped part-time, agency, fixed-term and outsourced employees. The provision of paid holidays under the Working Time Directive at a stroke increased real wages. And real wages equals more spending power.
Trade and investment
UK membership of the EU increases foreign investment in the economy, and investment creates better paid, higher value jobs. We export so much to the EU, and the bigger the investment market is, the more jobs it creates. Jobs in businesses which export are higher paid and more skilled. By the same token, our membership of the EU produces cheaper imports, which increase real wages by reducing the cost of living for everyone.
For example, my shopping list this weekend included the following goods from the EU: Lemon (Asda) 20p,Wine (Sainsbury’s) £6.99, French cheese (posh cheese shop) £9.99. After Brexit, even if only the World Trade Organisation’s 2.5% tariff were added, the lemon would cost an extra penny with rounding up, the wine another 17 or 18p, the cheese another 25p, a total of 42p before the additional costs for transport and import/export tariffs were included.
The TUC also talks of the hidden devaluation Brexit would bring. The effects would not be immediate, but suddenly the cost of very basic imports (my lemons and wine) would increase by between 2.5%and 4%. And our exports would cost more as well, by the same percentages or perhaps more, so our former partners in Europe would look elsewhere for lamb (38% is exported to the EU), inside the now UK-free EU.
“The UK would find other markets”
Did you know that no British beef has been imported into the USA for 20 years, following the outbreak of Mad Cow Disease?
And then there are the questions of solidarity with the people of Europe and workers all over the world. Just about everyone , In or Out, loathes the idea of battery chickens and other meat producing creatures. Millions of workers outside the EU live and work in conditions not much better than battery hens.
Only with the example of European protections for workers and the power of the Single Market to boycott goods or lay down conditions before importing them, can we help other human beings all over the planet achieve better living and working conditions. We have it better in the UK than most places on the planet, so think about this, don’t you want all humanity to enjoy the same?
The bigger the Single Market, the louder the voice. We cannot live in a British Bubble. | <urn:uuid:2f34cb67-4b9c-4a70-9f3b-d66b4f44475a> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://www.london4europe.co.uk/news/eu-referendum-trade-workers-and-bubble-of-self-righteousness | 2020-09-29T04:51:17Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600401624636.80/warc/CC-MAIN-20200929025239-20200929055239-00209.warc.gz | en | 0.952127 | 800 |
To make things worse, Lauren was having an affair with Spider Craig.
James Willett decided that enough was enough and wanted to leave the group with Lauren and their baby Heidi.
Monfort, Craig and Goucher decided that the risk of Willett snitching about the armed robberies was too great, so they lured him into this wooded area and tricked him into digging what would shortly become his own shallow grave. To make sure all hands were dirty, all three pumped ammo into him.
It is unclear if Lauren approved. She did though follow the group to Stockton where she herself was in turn murdered.

Immediate and Long-Term Tax Planning Tips
Over the last two years, we have seen many individual tax changes that may have reduced some deductions, increased others and dramatically changed your tax return. There are still a number of tax planning strategies available and in this letter, we will remind you of a few.
The 401k continues to be America’s #1 tax shelter. If your employer offers a 401k plan, deferring the maximum amount the IRS allows will reduce your taxable income and tax you owe. The 2019 contribution limit is $19,000 and if you are 50 or over the limit is $25,000. There’s still time to increase your contributions for 2019. The 2020 limits are $19,500 and $26,000. If your employer provides a match, ensure you are at least saving the percentage of your salary to get the match, this is free money!
You may have experienced a surprise when you filed your tax return. This was likely because your withholding adjustment may not have reflected your actual tax situation. Now is a great time to look at your projected tax. Doing this will help avoid unwanted penalties/interest as well as help you plan for cashflow needs. There is time to adjust your withholding before the end of the year.
Health Savings Account (HSA)
The Kaiser Family Foundation reports this year that 41% of American W-2 employees will be covered by a health savings account at work. If your employer does not deposit the maximum amount allowable into this plan, you have until April 15, 2020 to add the remaining amount (up to the 2019 maximum) to the amount they put in. An HSA is the 2nd best tax planning move of all time. The maximum for 2019 is $3,500 for single coverage or $7,000 for family coverage and in 2020 the maximum is $3,550 for single coverage or $7,100 for family coverage. The catch-up contribution for those over the age of 55 is an additional $1,000 for 2019 and 2020.
Some employers allow you to deposit your health savings account amounts through a cafeteria or 125 plan. If available to you, this is the best way to put your own money in because of the additional tax savings available by avoiding Social Security tax. You are probably too late to do much for this year but make this your 2020 New Year’s financial resolution.
Fewer Americans are now able to itemize deductions because of the huge benefit received from the increased standard deduction. That doesn’t mean that you still can’t do anything though. One simple strategy to get the best “bang for your buck” is to practice what we call bunching of charitable contributions. This trick guides you to make charitable contributions every other year so that you double up and get a deduction in some years without giving it up in others. Simply make your 2020 contributions as early as possible in 2020, and then make your 2021 contributions at the very end of 2020 so that you “bunch” all your amounts in one year to potentially get the best-itemized deduction amount.
Itemized vs Standard Deduction
We still need all of your information to determine if it’s better for you to itemize or take the standard deduction. One planning item we used last year, was to take the standard deduction on the Federal return but the itemized deduction on the State return. Yes, you can do that and in many cases, it saved clients over $1,000 in State taxes.
Because there is no longer any deduction for work-related expenses you must carefully read your employer’s handbook to see if they offer a reimbursement program for job-related expenses like licenses, dues, uniforms, supplies, etc.
Qualified Business Income Deduction
If you own a business or a rental property, we likely discussed this deduction (a potential 20% deduction on business income) with you last year. There are several reasons why year-end planning is particularly important for this deduction. The deduction can be limited based on taxable income, which means that planning for minimizing income can be important. Also, for rental property owners, there are requirements that may need to be satisfied before the end of the year for you to take this deduction. We can help you navigate this complexity.
Stock as a Charitable Donation
If you are considering selling some old stock investments you might want to consider giving them directly to charity and avoiding writing checks because you are able to deduct the full fair market value of the stock you give away and not include the capital gain as taxable income. While we are at it, if you are over 70 ½ and have an IRA you should not be writing checks to charity, instead, you should be using the “Direct IRA to charity” strategy to avoid tax issues while qualifying for and satisfying the Required Minimum Distribution (RMD) rule.
If you had a divorce or separation that recently was finalized, any alimony paid or received will not be deducted or included in income. Contact us if you have questions about how this will affect your tax liability.
Based on changes in the tax law, the tax on children’s investment income (known as “kiddie tax”) is now calculated at the trust and estate tax rates. There can be alternatives to filing a separate tax return based on the amount and type of income, and we can help you determine the best strategy.
We continue to worry about unreported foreign investments, and we suggest you very carefully consider whether you have control over a foreign checking account or hold stock outside the United States. These must be reported, or they essentially face 50% penalties each year. We can help you analyze and comply with this red flag for audits.
This year the IRS and Congress have become very concerned about crypto-currency (like Bitcoin) and you must be certain to report any of these transactions – there is even a new question on every tax return asking about it. If you have Crypto-Currency you must let us know so we can advise you on how to best comply with your reporting obligation.
Planning for Social Security
It’s important to remind yourself that your Social Security benefit is based on your highest 35 years of earnings, so taking some time away from the workforce, or aggressively writing off business expenses can really have a long-term negative effect on retirement.
The IRS will not call you. Scams and fraud remain a significant threat. Our firm takes security very seriously and we think you should as well. Fraudsters continue to refine their techniques and tax identity theft remains a significant concern. Beware if you:
- Receive a notice or letter from the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) regarding a tax return, tax bill or income that doesn’t apply to you
- Get an unsolicited email or another form of communication asking for your bank account number or other financial details or personal information
- Receive a robocall insisting you must call back and settle your tax bill
- Make sure you’re taking steps to keep your personal financial information safe. Let us know if you have questions or concerns about how to go about this.
Affordable Care Act (ACA)
Recent tax law changes repealed the penalty that the ACA imposes on individuals who do not have health insurance. However, other aspects of the ACA still are in place. Contact us if you have questions about how this affects you.
Be sure your retirement planning is up to date. We recommend you review your retirement situation at least annually. That includes making the most of tax-advantaged retirement saving options, such as traditional IRAs, Roth IRAs, and company retirement plans. We can help you determine whether you’re on target to reach your retirement goals.
Please remember year-end planning equals fewer surprises. There are many other opportunities to talk about as year-end approaches. And, many times, there may be strategies such as deferral of income, prepayment of expenses, etc., that can help you save taxes.

On the Water: May means great weather, fewer boats and good fishing
The month of May kicks off our slow season in Southwest Florida as neighbors and visitors head north for the summer. Just as our roads and restaurants become less congested, far less boats are on the water. While tourist season may be slowing down, fishing may be at its peak without the crowds of winter months.
I would have to say this is the best time to hook into a tarpon, as they move into Southwest Florida waters by the thousands. Look for them a short distance off the beaches, around the Gulf passes and bridges, plus throughout the inshore waters. Tarpon eat a wide variety of bait, however at times they will not eat anything you offer. Live baits, including crabs, Atlantic thread herring, pinfish and large shrimp, are top choices while a variety of cut bait, including mullet, ladyfish, and catfish tails, hook more than their share.
Sharks large and small are roaming the inshore waters, around the Gulf passes and offshore around schooling baitfish and reefs. Large hammerhead and bull sharks follow tarpon schools awaiting their next meal. Spinner and blacktip sharks are almost identical in appearance and both offer an incredibly hard fight, often with a great aerial show. If you are fishing an area and hooking ladyfish or mackerel, you can be assured sharks are nearby. A chunk of ladyfish is sure to get attention, use a minimum of a foot or two of wire leader to prevent cut offs.
Spanish mackerel is an underrated fish that gives an excellent fight as they are super-fast and strong. When Iced down as soon as they are caught and eaten fresh, they are very good on the table. Good numbers of schooling mackerel frequent areas just outside or inside the Gulf passes, around bridges and artificial reefs within sight of land. Either trolling or casting silver spoons with a fast retrieve is the top method for consistently hooking mackerel.
Mangrove snapper may be our tastiest fish and at times the most abundant. As our waters warm, snapper in the Gulf of Mexico move closer to shore, plus many relocate to our inshore waters. What snapper lack in size they make up for in tenacity and food value, plus they may be the easiest fish to target. Many anglers catch their fair share from land while targeting bridges, docks and piers. Live shrimp is the top bait, a small hook and light leader is a must to fool their keen eyesight.
This spring has given us good snook fishing and the bite will continue through the month of May. Many are on the move, as they head to areas in and near the passes for their upcoming summer spawn. Snook may range in size from little guys barely over a foot long to big girls over 40 inches. While snook will pounce on a variety of lures and baits, live oily baitfish, including scaled sardines or pilchards, Atlantic thread herring and grunts or pigfish, are the top baits. Snook are out of season and catch and release only.
For a variety of fish, nearshore artificial reefs are a great place to look. Here you may hook into about anything from smaller fish like snapper to huge goliath grouper and everything in between. An assortment of tackle from light to heavy, a variety of bait and an open mind is the key to taking advantage of what these areas offer on any given day. Reefs are a great place to experiment and try different things while keeping your eyes open for unexpected visitors. Permit should make their way to many of the reefs this month. While they will eat a live shrimp, they seldom pass on a small live crab.
May will give us consistent days of great weather with blue skies and light wind. Our summer afternoon thunderstorm pattern will kick in so always keep an eye on the sky to stay ahead of an approaching storm. Good weather and the potential for great fishing, what’s not to like about the month! Hope to see ya on the water.
If you have a fishing report or for charter information, please contact us Gulf Coast Guide Service at 239-283-7960, via the Website www.fishpineisland.com or email [email protected].
Have a safe week and good fishin’.

Barnes & Noble Inc., the largest U.S. bookstore chain, should spin off its Nook digital-reader business to increase shareholder value, said one of its largest investors.
The company is undervalued and should separate the Nook unit, possibly through a rights offering to current shareholders, Michael Glickstein, G Asset’s chief investment officer, said Friday in a filing. The New York-based firm said it owns 5 percent of Barnes & Noble, which would make it the fifth- largest investor in the company.
G Asset Management began writing the board about spinning off the Nook in April, according to the filing. Barnes & Noble said Jan. 5 that it was considering ways to increase shareholder value, including separating the Nook business. G Asset has communicated with other Barnes & Noble shareholders and some support the spinoff, Glickstein said, without naming them.
“I don’t see any data to support not taking action at this time,” Glickstein, 30, said in a telephone interview. There is a risk of waiting because the valuations for technology growth companies may decline, which would then reduce the value of a spinoff of the Nook, he said.
Barnes & Noble fell 0.7 percent to $13.27 at 2:39 p.m. in New York, where the company is based. The shares gained 2.3 percent last year.
One scenario is that Nook would become a separate company, a person familiar with the situation said last month. The newly independent Nook would then sell a minority interest to investors through an initial public offering, hoping to be valued more like a technology company.
Barnes & Noble would remain majority owner, and the value assigned to the Nook shares would then be better reflected in Barnes & Noble’s stock, said the person.
G Asset Management, started in 2009, is a value investor that has also made investments in Syms Corp. and Bob Evans Farms Inc., Glickstein said.
Founder Leonard Riggio and Ron Burkle’s Yucaipa Cos. are Barnes & Noble’s top shareholders. | <urn:uuid:bbb73903-5923-4a61-b70d-8ebd671976b6> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://www.telegram.com/article/20120217/NEWS/102179552 | 2020-09-29T03:51:06Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600401624636.80/warc/CC-MAIN-20200929025239-20200929055239-00209.warc.gz | en | 0.951855 | 446 |
Moviegoer claim they have been leaving the Rockwell Cinema with more than just shivers down their spine – after finding themselves bitten by bedbugs.
According to Anna Martirez Siapno, 2 days ago, she and her family watched Mission Impossible at the Rockwell – Cinema 6, Row J, 130pm. After the movie, they went home. After 2 hrs, she had bug bites on the back of her thighs, which were very itchy. Her husband counted 50 bed bug bites or “surot bites” on her upper thighs. He rushed her to their Dermatologist, who was shocked with the infestation & immediately injected the 50 bites with steroids.
Rockwell claims there are no bed bugs in their cinemas but her friend’s dad also got bug bites from Rockwell (Cinema 2) last Sunday. Now, she is still suffering from the bites and warns moviegoers to think twice before watching another movie in Rockwell. | <urn:uuid:66e2fa07-ea04-4c1f-b67f-2cc17491e6f2> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://www.thedigitalspy.com/woman-allegedly-bitten-by-bedbugs-after-watching-movie-at-the-rockwell-cinema/ | 2020-09-29T05:04:28Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600401624636.80/warc/CC-MAIN-20200929025239-20200929055239-00209.warc.gz | en | 0.978598 | 200 |

By Anugraha Hadke:
Filmmaker Anand Patwardhan is widely known for raising issues through his films that can be seen as ‘testing the limits’ of freedom of expression. He is not afraid to focus on matters that might make anyone flinch, which can be seen in many of his films, starting from the very first ‘Waves Of Revolution‘ (1974), which followed the JP movement started in Bihar, to the last ‘Jai Bhim Comrade‘ (2012), that explores the lives and politics of Dalits in Mumbai.
With his film ‘Father, Son And Holy War‘, released in 1994, Patwardhan engaged in a long drawn legal battle with Doordarshan. Despite winning several awards, the state-sponsored telecaster refused to broadcast the film that delved into the history and psychology of communalism in India in light of the Babri Masjid demolition.
He recently returned his National Award to protest growing intolerance in India and penned a powerful open letter expressing his dismay and emphasising the need of eternal vigilance. 65-year-old Patwardhan has been at war with various forms of censorship, including the CBFC (central board for film certification) and right-wing groups. His website is blocked often and can then only be accessed via proxy servers. He believes that all governments are equally responsible for attacking freedom of expression, but censorship is worse in the BJP-led government.
Watch this interview as he talks about his struggle against censorship, the censor board, and the current state of “undeclared emergency” in India. | <urn:uuid:1e9415d6-27e3-40b0-9a12-be3c8faa13f4> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://www.youthkiawaaz.com/2015/12/anand-patwardhan-interview-video/ | 2020-09-29T04:46:03Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600401624636.80/warc/CC-MAIN-20200929025239-20200929055239-00209.warc.gz | en | 0.973421 | 336 |

A 28-year-old intelligence officer appeared in court yesterday on allegations of robbing two cellphones at gunpoint.
Ardon Chipangamati was allegedly hired to recover money paid in rentals to the complainant who had evicted his tenants.
Harare magistrate Mrs Barbra Mateko released Chipangamati on $5 000 bail and will be back in court on November 25 to face a robbery charge.
The court heard that Chipangamati’s workmates Ruth Mwadi, Elton Bhunu and Peter Mutumba were offered a house to rent in Msasa by the complainant and they gave him US$550.
The complainant then evicted them as soon as they moved in and offered to refund them, but did not do so and became evasive prompting Mwadi and her other accomplices, who are already on remand in relation to the same case to hire Chipangamati on August 28, to help them recover their money and to “discipline” the complainant.
Mr Lancelot Mutsokoti is prosecuting.

SCIENCE IN PICTURES
Mechanical “Wings” with which the inventor hopes he will be able to fly, are the work of 36-year-old Horace T. Pentecost of Seattle. In his right hand he holds the flight control stick: its handle is the throttle, regulated by turning. The “Hoppicopter,” as the inventor calls it, has a 2-cylinder, 20 hp. motor and weighs 60 pounds plus.

This is a quickie description of the first commercial 4-place helicopter, the Sikorsky S-51. I was given a preview of it at the plant in Bridgeport, Conn., the home of “the only helicopters that went to war.”
Co-Axial Rotors. as on the Hiller-copter illustrated in the December Mechanix Illustrated, eliminate noise and vibration on this new helicopter designed by Vincent Bendix. The inventor claims it will be easier to operate and safer than an automobile. Two levers control the machine’s flight, and continuous autorotation makes it possible to fly it with safety at altitudes of only 100 to 200 feet.

NEXT year, your back yard may be an airport. At least it will if it’s 50 x 50 ft. or larger—and provided your budget can stand the sort of strain another automobile in the medium price class might place on it.
The family’s “second car” in this case, however, won’t be just another woe-on-wheels to clutter up the highways. This one’s designed, literally, to “rise above” traffic problems. In fact, it isn’t a car at all, but a little one-stick, two-seater helicopter so simple in concept that you’ll find yourself a pilot in a matter of hours—not months—after you buy it.
COMING: Rooftop Airports
Runway-less air terminals, VTOL’s will greet air travelers of 1965.
STRANGE-looking craft that take off and land on rooftop airports, operate via automatic flight instruments and controlled by electronic traffic cops are some of the things in store for the air traveler of 1965. Dream stuff? Not according to Civil Aeronautics Administration experts who made the above predictions. Many such planes are already working models or on drawing boards.

Helicopter Prodigy Designs Man-Carrying Rocket
STANLEY Hiller, Jr., isn’t satisfied with his helicopters. He has his sights set on a star. Literally, that is. And if he has his way, he’s going to get to that star in a machine of his own make, a man-carrying rocket which he calls the VJ-100.
The present model uses a combination of jet and rocket power and looks like a V-2 with wings. It is designed to take off straight upward, powered by a Rolls Royce Nene turbo-jet engine and 5,000 lbs. of rocket thrust. Later conversions will make use of rocket power alone to drive the VJ-100 away from the earth’s gravity on its interplanetary explorations.

How: Get out and about! It’s just one night!!

When I was an undergraduate, I double majored in philosophy and English. (Readers who know my scholarship can attest to the effect of those years. I always lean toward the conceptual and the narrative.) Before I transferred to Fordham University where I completed my degree, I attended the Catholic University of America. One day while meeting with a philosophy professor (I cannot remember which one, but there were many), I spied on his bookshelf a fantastic nine book series called A History of Philosophy by Frederick Copleston, S.J.. I was broke at the time, but committed to acquiring my own series. So, any time I went into a used book store I headed straight for the philosophy section and excitedly scoured the shelf for volumes of Copleston’s works.
That quest came to an end last week at Housing Works Bookstore down in Soho. I have in my office the first eight volumes, all purchased over the last fifteen years from used book stores around the country. (I imposed a rule that I could not purchase them online. Physical stores only.) But for the last few years, I simply could not find the ninth volume. My expectations were low when I entered Housing Works. But there, on the bottom shelf in the philosophy section was it: Volume 9. I grabbed it, took a picture of it, and then awkwardly told other customers and staff around me that I had finally found it and how elated I was. You can imagine how that went, but I didn’t care.
So here’s to philosophy and to used bookstores and to Jesuits and to sticking to one’s bibliophilic commitments!
Now I just have to read them all. | <urn:uuid:b2bcf265-38a6-4cde-8a65-a3a21bbfb655> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | http://tomliamlynch.com/2019/03/08/my-15-year-bookish-quest-finally-comes-to-an-end/ | 2020-09-30T16:43:28Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600402127075.68/warc/CC-MAIN-20200930141310-20200930171310-00209.warc.gz | en | 0.977159 | 354 |
For years I’ve been reading various websites and blogs around the internet. Some of these I have become a regular reader of, some I came back to for a period of time before moving on, and some only received my attention briefly.
About 10 years ago, while attending an educational technology conference, I listened to a speaker espousing the virtues of blogging for educators. This was early in the Web 2.0 revolution and it seemed that everyone at the conference was pushing the idea that educators needed to be creators when it came to the internet. As I sat and listened to all of this advice, I wondered what, if anything, I had to offer that others might find worthwhile. It was this trepidation that held me back. After years of considering blogging, I finally decided to take the leap.
Adventures in History Class represents my effort to impart my thoughts, ideas, experiences, lessons, resources, and general ramblings upon those of you who may stumble upon this site. I will make an effort to regularly post regarding lesson ideas, resources, and general classroom experiences. Hopefully this will be a learning experience for me as well as for any readers that may come across Adventures in History Class. | <urn:uuid:6c30e95d-88cd-44bd-b9e3-e54866c93864> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | http://www.adventuresinhistoryclass.com/2013/01/to-blog-or-not-to-blog_7.html | 2020-09-30T15:21:53Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600402127075.68/warc/CC-MAIN-20200930141310-20200930171310-00209.warc.gz | en | 0.970626 | 245 |
If you’ve run enough races, and run them with a specific time goal in mind, you may have felt unprepared before a race began.
Lord knows I’ve don’t that more than a few times.
How does this happen? But more importantly, when you are feeling unprepared before a race how do you react when the race starts?
Turning Lemons Into Lemonade
I’ve headed to the starting line feeling completely unprepared too many times, yet I’ve been able to run some great times (for me) at those same events.
So what gives?
How can you convince yourself to still run, and potentially run very well, when you’re feeling unprepared before the start of a race.
Here are a few things that I have reminded myself of pre-race:
- We Sell Ourselves Short: It’s easy to see all the reasons that we aren’t ready for a particular race, but much harder to see all of the good work we’ve done and accepting that we did enough. You might feel unprepared before a race, but if you’ve been training consistently you’re prepared. Get to the start line, and go.
- Give Yourself a Chance: Walking to the starting line with a goal to PR is tough, because you’re trying to do something that you’ve never done before. It’s easy to feel unprepared when we don’t know exactly how to be prepared for something. If this is the case for you, instead of feeling unprepared before a race and potentially afraid of the unknowns, give yourself permission to start the race and see what happens. To run a certain time, you probably know what your average pace needs to be based on the distance you’re running. So start out at that pace, and see what happens. You might just surprise yourself.
- Shift Your Goals: And if you’re not surprised, nothing says you can’t shift your focus to a different goal. And you can even do that before the race begins if know for sure you’re not prepared. Instead of aiming for a PR, try to run a negative split. Or decide to make as many new friends as possible by talking to other runners along the way. Or just turn your watch off and run for fun. Or simply focus on getting to the end, getting your bling, and having a beer. Just don’t worry about being unprepared because that’s only going to make things worse.
At the end of the day, feeling unprepared before a race happens to just about everyone from time to time.
Press play below to hear me talk about a few examples from my past where I’ve definitely been less than prepared for the start of a race! | <urn:uuid:70510315-5237-488d-a634-4d3f6ea3cb3e> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | http://www.dizruns.com/quick-tip-feeling-unprepared-before-a-race/ | 2020-09-30T16:22:55Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600402127075.68/warc/CC-MAIN-20200930141310-20200930171310-00209.warc.gz | en | 0.95011 | 586 |
Welcome To Gardens of Great Britain.
The Garden is one of the most ancient of man's creations. Each garden is unique, reflecting the landscape and climate of its environment, and also the heritage, the history, architectural styles and influences of the people who made it and care for it.
In the British Isles we are fortunate to have some of the most beautiful gardens in the world. This website is a celebration of those gardens. The images reveal the spirit of the gardens and their creators. They reflect the beauty of nature and the passage of the seasons, an infinite variety of light and shade, of planting and colour.
Over time, I shall be adding more gardens to this site, and it is my intention to include as many open gardens as possible, to give visitors to this site the opportunity to learn a little about a garden before visiting it, about its history and its design, and to see some photographs. For each garden, there is an article in the Gardens section, and more pictures to view in the Gallery.There are also sections on garden designers and poetry. The section on the gardening year features extracts from Vita Sackville-West's articles of 1950.
The gardens on this site are open to visitors to enjoy. For information about the opening days and times for a garden, please contact the garden directly.
Some of the gardens on this site are well known, others are off the beaten path, waiting to be discovered. The gardens continually change with the passage of time, often rewarding visits at different times of year. I hope you will find the opportunity to visit many, as I have done, and I hope you will enjoy them too. | <urn:uuid:a4331ce0-e9b9-4aa3-9fe6-87e54f8e5a47> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | http://www.gardensofgreatbritain.com/ | 2020-09-30T15:43:23Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600402127075.68/warc/CC-MAIN-20200930141310-20200930171310-00209.warc.gz | en | 0.959118 | 335 |
That moment when you receive your child’s diagnosis for the first time .. When the doctors (usually) tell you that there is something wrong with your baby and that it cannot be cured. That sinking movement your heart does as it sinks to the pit of your stomach, as you look at your child and you start questioning the higher powers.
That lost feeling that engulfes the whole of you as your mind races on what is happening, what are you meant to do, why your child and not somebody else’s. The hot tears that stream down your face and you don’t bother to wipe them away as your heart is already broken anyway.
Somehow you survive it all. You accept (and love) your child and vow to do all you can for them. That is your baby .. A part of you that you can never undo. A piece of you literally.
With time you get to meet other parents of special needs children .. Whether or not the conditions are the same, the journey is the same. The hurt, the mourning of a ‘perfect’ life, the roller coaster of emotions and medical visits, the life of raising a child with special needs.
The feeling of belonging soon overwhelmes the feeling of loneliness and despair. The comforting thought of someone is there to help you walk the journey when you can’t find it within yourself to even look up. The smile that crosses your face (and heart) at the end of a long grueling day when you realize that it may seem, but you are not alone. | <urn:uuid:0dd71490-90e8-454c-bd8a-556fe008a8dd> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | http://www.steppingstoneskenya.org/new/2016/10/28/it-may-seem-but-i-am-not-alone/ | 2020-09-30T15:53:18Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600402127075.68/warc/CC-MAIN-20200930141310-20200930171310-00209.warc.gz | en | 0.947995 | 319 |

How to Choose the Best CNA Program near Queen Creek Arizona
Now that you have decided to enter the medical field as a certified nursing assistant, it's time to begin the process of finding CNA training programs near Queen Creek AZ. Once you have earned your certification, you will begin a gratifying career in one of the fastest growing occupations in medical care within the Country. Though it may seem like a daunting endeavor, it's essential that you pick the ideal program to acquire the proper training and education. Many potential students begin with the two most fundamental qualifications, which are the location of the school and the cost of tuition. You might also be debating whether to attend CNA classes on campus, or enroll in an online CNA program and attend them from home. More regarding that option later. But performing your due diligence prior to choosing a program involves far more than comparing the tuition or location. Such factors as accreditation and the reputation of the school must also be considered. We will be covering those issues along with several other questions that you should be asking before you register in a CNA school. But first, let's talk a little bit about what a nursing assistant does and the kind of training and credentials that are offered.
The Role of a Nursing Assistant
Certified Nursing Assistants are responsible for many tasks in the Queen Creek AZ hospitals, clinics and other health care organizations where they are employed. As indicated by their title, CNAs are not licensed by the state but instead are certified. Because they are not licensed, they function under the guidance and oversight of either a licensed LPN or RN. Plus as nursing assistants, their prime job duty is to aid the licensed nurses that they work under. Their responsibilities are numerous and diverse, and in a hospital setting might include:
- Furnishing basic services to patients
- Taking patient's vital signs
- Maintaining a record of patient's health status
- Bathing and dressing patients
- Serving and helping patients with meals
- Conveying patients to other areas
CNAs can also work in Queen Creek AZ nursing homes or long term care centers. In those settings, nursing assistants are more engaged in supporting patients with their Activities of Daily Living (ADL). ADLs are defined as routine activities that most individuals perform daily without help, including eating, dressing, or using the restroom. Nursing assistants typically build more of a bond with these types of patients since they often reside in the facilities for extended time frames. Often, they may become the pipeline between the patient and the balance of the medical staff thanks to their relationships with their charges. As a result, the CNA's expertise can be a beneficial resource for preparing the appropriate care and treatment of long term care patients.
CNA CoursesUnlike many other licensed nurses, certified nursing assistants do not need to attain a college degree. CNA instruction can be acquired at community colleges or at Queen Creek AZ vocational or trade schools. The length of the training can take anywhere from one to three months, resulting in either a certificate or a diploma. Within the 1987 Nursing Home Reform Act, students are required to have at least 75 hours of training, 16 of which need to be clinical or "hands-on" training hours. Bear in mind that this is the minimum amount of training mandated and every state has its specific requirements. So it's important to make sure that the course you enroll in not only satisfies the federal requirements, but likewise those for the state where you will be practicing. One suggestion is to contact the health or nursing board for your state to make sure that the training is state certified. As well as the training, each state mandates a passing score on a competency test for certification. Depending on the state, there can be other requirements as well.
CNA Online Schools
Attending CNA schools online is growing into a more preferred way to obtain training and attain a certificate or diploma in Queen Creek AZ. Some schools will require attending on campus for part of the training, and nearly all programs call for a specific amount of clinical rotation hours performed in a local healthcare facility. But since the remainder of the training may be accessed online, this alternative may be a more convenient approach to finding the time to attend school for many students. Regarding tuition, a number of online CNA programs are less expensive than other on campus options. Even additional expenses such as for commuting and study materials can be lessened, helping to make education more easily affordable. And many online programs are accredited by organizations such as the Commission on Collegiate Nursing Education (CCNE). And so if your job and family responsibilities have left you with little time to pursue your academic goals, perhaps an online CNA school will make it easier to fit earning a certificate into your hectic schedule.
What to Ask CNA Degree Programs
Once you have selected which nursing program to pursue, as well as whether to attend your classes on campus or on the internet, you can use the following pointers to start narrowing down your options. As you no doubt are aware, there are a large number of CNA schools and colleges throughout Arizona and the United States. So it is essential to reduce the number of schools to choose from to ensure that you will have a workable list. As we previously mentioned, the location of the school and the expense of tuition are undoubtedly going to be the initial two points that you will take into consideration. But as we also emphasized, they should not be your only qualifiers. So before making your ultimate choice, use the following questions to see how your pick compares to the other schools.
- Accreditation. It's a good idea to make sure that the certificate program along with the school is accredited by a U.S. Department of Education acknowledged accrediting organization. Aside from helping make sure that you receive a premium education and employment in the Queen Creek AZ area, it may help in acquiring financial aid or student loans, which are oftentimes not available for non-accredited schools.
- Certification Preparation. Certification prerequisites for CNAs vary from state to state. For CNA certification, passing a state specific exam is required. Some states require a certain number of clinical hours be completed, as well. It's important that the school you are enrolled in not only delivers a top-notch education, but also preps you to satisfy the minimum certification standards for Arizona or the state where you will be practicing.
- Reputation. Check internet rating companies to see what the assessments are for each of the schools you are looking into. Ask the accrediting organizations for their reviews too. Additionally, contact the Arizona school certification or licensing authority to determine if there are any complaints or compliance issues. Finally, you can call some Queen Creek AZ healthcare organizations you're interested in working for after graduation and ask what their assessments are of the schools as well.
- Graduation and Job Placement Rates. Find out from the CNA programs you are considering what their graduation rates are as well as how long on average it takes students to complete their programs. A low graduation rate may be an indication that students were dissatisfied with the program and dropped out. It's also important that the schools have high job placement rates. A high rate will not only confirm that the school has a good reputation within the Queen Creek AZ healthcare community, but that it also has the network of contacts to help students gain a position.
- Internship Programs. The most effective way to get experience as a certified nursing assistant is to work in a clinical setting. Essentially all nursing degree programs require a specified number of clinical hours be completed. Various states have minimum clinical hour prerequisites for certification also. Check if the schools have a working relationship with nearby Queen Creek AZ hospitals, clinics or labs and assist with the positioning of students in internships.
Enroll in the Best CNA School

God In Woman
I never much believed in God
Until she smiled at me today
A wondrous smile that brightened my heart
And showed me the way.
If man is built in God’s image
Then only a God can this woman be
For if she is not God then my heart has played a cruel trick on me
God is what brings you hope
A sense of purpose, a connection in time and space.
Some look for it in churches and books, longing to see God’s face
But they’ve got it all wrong
I have discovered this much to be true
The only God that really exists is the God that I see in you. | <urn:uuid:88b5e5d4-a07c-41b4-bf67-aaf868f94072> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://angiesdiary.com/poetry-and-lyrics/god-in-woman/ | 2020-09-30T16:50:26Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600402127075.68/warc/CC-MAIN-20200930141310-20200930171310-00209.warc.gz | en | 0.953042 | 144 |
This year I’ve been fortunate enough to be sufficiently busy to need more than one planner. That’s my excuse, anyway, and I’m sticking to it. So I thought I’d set out my views on three of the best known bound planners, and what you might like or dislike about each. As such, there’s no one recommendation for which might suit you next year, or indeed what might suit me. Horses for courses and all that.
Basis for Review
I wanted to choose planners that had plenty in common, so the review would be more useful. So all three of the planners are bound with metal rings. All three have a thick card casing and storage pockets.
All cover 2017. The Ban.do and Kate Spade planners also cover the period August – December 2016, which is why I’m writing this review now. Stock will be appearing soon for next year.
Kate Spade Planner
The Kate Spade Planner I’m using is wider than a personal planner, but about as tall. I’ve pictured it alongside my Kate Spade spotty personal planner, so you can get an idea of the relative size. My version is in cream with gold spots, and you can also get cream with black stripes in a slightly bigger size.
Please excuse the sunshine, but at least you can see the beauty of the metallic spots.
The rings for the card covered Kate Spade planner are contained within the cover. This is great for carrying it with you, as you won’t be in danger of the rings snagging something in your bag. At the front of the planner is a page with a card pocket on each side, useful for corralling your bits and pieces such as receipts or stickers. You then get the usual calendars and pages to note celebrations, plus a list of holidays. There are 16 pages for notes before you get into the diary section.
Each month is tabbed, and at the start of each month, there’s a spread announcing that “this is the month to…” with a set of suggestions. June 2017 suggests, amongst other things, that we dive right in or take the long way home, both of which are fine by me. Before the weekly pages, there is a double page monthly planner grid with boxes. These grids are fine if you have small writing like me, but if you’re blessed with beautiful bold penmanship, abbreviations will be necessary.
Ring bound planner compared to the zipper personal planner: Kate Spade spotty love here
The weekly spreads start on Mondays. Weekends get half the space of weekdays, so if your life is busiest at weekends, you might struggle to fit your life into the available space. Each day has ruled lines.
As you’d expect from Kate Spade, this is a chunky and solid planner. I love the choice of spots or stripes, which is definitely my thing. I find the paper a little rough for my favourite pen (rather like the inserts for the ring bound planner), but as I’ve been using the same paper since October 2016, I can’t say I hate it! You’d fit this planner in a smaller bag, and I’d venture that it would stand up to being carried around pretty well.
Sugar Paper Planner
This planner is slightly larger taller than a personal ringed planner and not as thick. I really love the elegant stripe design. The black inner cover is visible when you open the pages, and the black tabs. Each weekly spread has a black spot design at the top, so you can see that all my design loves are met.
It’s an elegant planner, the Sugar Paper product. Sturdy but not chunky.
The planner starts with a yearly overview, and again two card slip pockets on a single leaf. There’s a list of holidays, and three pages of space for contacts. Each monthly tab opens to a planning grid with a teeny list for notes to the right. Again this is a compact spread, so be aware if you have large writing.
The weekly spreads are in the same format as the Kate Spade planner: Monday starts, and half the space for each of the weekend days. Each day is has ruled lines, great for people like me who can’t write in a straight line. There’s a seventeen page tabbed section for notes at the end.
This planner is smaller than the other two, so perhaps a good choice if weight and size are a consideration for you. The cover has plenty of heft to it, so I think it would stand up to use over the year.
This one is larger than the other two, fitting somewhere between A5 and A4. It comes in a slogan design or a pink floral, which is the one I have, and there’s an elastic to keep the planner closed.
Bigger than A5, smaller than A4, this is a BIG planner.
Inside you have the double sided pocket page for storage. You then have two pages of stickers to decorate the planner, a page telling you about Ban.do and the usual calendars. The calendar is tabbed, which is useful, as are the pages that follow for days to celebrate and holidays. Under The Best Days you’ll find some of those weird and wonderful causes for celebration such as National Cake Decorating Day. These are also shown in the planner.
A word on design here is important. I think that this is probably a Marmite planner. Don’t be fooled by the pretty pink flowers on the outside. This planner is a riot of fun, funky artwork and inspirational quotes. You’ll love it, or want to turn its volume down.
Sample monthly art spread from the 2017 Ban.do planner
At the monthly dividers, you have a double page spread of artwork. This is followed by a two page montly planning grid which has lots of space. There’s a double page ruled spread for notes. The weekly pages start on Mondays and again have half the space for weekends. This is massive planning territory; if you have small writing like me, you could fit a small essay in each day. There are eighteen ruled pages for notes at the end of the planner and some social media links to the design team.
This is a big beast in the planning world. Although I’ve taken it out of the house a couple of times, I don’t think I could manage it as an everyday carry. If you work somewhere where a sombre professional image is expected, then this planner may be a bit too exuberant. In other environments, people will love it, and want to know where they can buy their own.
My Choices for next year
That’s putting me on the spot. I will definitely be using the Ban.do next year as a blog planner. It’s worked really well for that this year, and it cheers me up when I’m having one of those days where brain and keyboard aren’t working for the same team.
If I’m still in a ring bound planner, then I will likely use either the Kate Spade or the Sugar Paper planner as a household planner. It keeps the routines out of my planning space for work and play, and I manage the house better with some kind of plannery intervention.
Have you used any of these bound planners? What’s your thinking on the pros and cons of each? I know lots of us picked up the Ban.do and Kate Spade planners in TK Maxx quite late in the year, so we could give them a trial for next year. So one of them may well get a spike in popularity. Which might it be? | <urn:uuid:ec2917f9-1b1c-4545-8ad8-52e3a431c2e3> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://apackedlife.com/bound-planner-review-kate-spade-sugar-paper-ban-choosing-bound-planner-201718/ | 2020-09-30T14:26:55Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600402127075.68/warc/CC-MAIN-20200930141310-20200930171310-00209.warc.gz | en | 0.950011 | 1,624 |

I came across this article by my colleagues at Spectrio and wanted to share it with you. As a brand, you should have influence over each interaction a customer has with your business. You should consider every possible situation that could bring your customer into contact with your brand and design that scenario to deliver a positive experience. And for that, there is touchpoint mapping.
Before we look at touchpoint mapping, we need to look at what a customer touchpoint is.
A customer touchpoint is any interaction between your business and a customer. It includes any interaction before, during, or after a customer purchases something from you.
A customer touchpoint happens through personal interactions and marketing channels. The interaction may be direct where you control the experience (such as a delivering a marketing message or ad campaign). Or, it could be indirect and you don’t have control over the experience (such as a word-of-mouth review of your business).
While you may not have complete control over every customer touchpoint, as a business owner, you still want to do your best to influence each situation. The best way to develop a plan to manage these interactions is through touchpoint mapping.
What Is Touchpoint Mapping?
Touchpoint mapping is the act of outlining each interaction that a customer could have with your brand. It looks at each step of the buyer’s journey and identifies the places where customers come in contact with or experience your brand.
Touchpoint mapping is important because it allows your brand to visualize and improve every experience a customer has with your business.
Because no customer buyer’s journey is exactly the same, each brand will have multiple variations of touchpoint maps. To create your maps, consider all of the possible ways people experience your brand and use the following process.
How to Start Touchpoint Mapping
Now that you know what customer touchpoints and touchpoint mapping are, it’s time to implement a strategy for using this marketing method.
1. Identify Each Customer Touchpoint
To start touchpoint mapping, begin by identifying each interaction that your business has with your customers. It helps to look at the experiences in categories: before purchase, during purchase, and after purchase.
While some of the touchpoints may overlap, this categorization can help you visualize and identify each potential interaction. Touchpoints marketing and advertising may include the following:
- Reviews / Testimonials
- Directory Listings
- On-hold Messaging
- Auto-Attendants and IVRs
- Advertisements and Promotions
- Store Locations
- In-store Advertising
- Word of Mouth
- In-store Events
- Digital Menu Boards
- Content Marketing
- Website (Ecommerce Section)
- Showroom Design
- Product Demo Videos
- Staff/Employee Engagement
- Overhead Music and Messaging
- Checkout Kiosks / Point of Sale Systems
- Checkout Lines
- Order Fulfillment
- Thank You Cards
- Customer / User Portals
- Billing / Invoices
- Follow Up Emails
- Online Help Center
- Education / Follow-up Resources
- Customer Service Phone Lines
- Questionnaires / Surveys
2. Map the Touchpoints
Once you have identified the places where your customers interact with your brand, begin to place these experiences in chronological order.
As you go through touchpoint mapping, consider the steps that lead your customers through the purchasing process. Use the phases of a retail buyer’s journey to guide your outline.
- Step One — Making Customers Aware of Your Brand: The customer is becoming familiar with you brand and products.
- Step Two — Getting Customers Through the Door: The customer is familiar with your brand and is planning a visit to your physical store.
- Step Three — Initiating Sales: The customer is in your store and is working through their purchasing process.
- Step Four — Getting Customers to Come Back: The customer has made a purchase and is considering coming back and purchasing from you again.
Don’t create just one buyer’s journey that goes through this process. Create at least 4-5 different types of customer maps to consider all of the different experiences your customers may have.
3. Improve Each Customer Touchpoint
Once you identify each possible customer touchpoint, the next step is working to improve the interaction. You need to look at how you can provide the best possible experience for the customer at that moment.
As you attempt to improve your customer touchpoints, focus on making your brand experiences:
- Simple: The experience should be easy for the customer to understand and interact with.
- Appropriate: The experience should fit the context of its channel and interests of your target audience.
- Relevant: The experience should match what the customer would expect and need to find during that phase of the buyer’s journey.
- Meaningful: The experience should provide significant and useful value for the customer.
- Appealing: The experience should tap into the cravings of the customer and give them the things they desire.
Look at each touchpoint and ensure that it has the qualifications of an exceptional and useful customer experience.
4. Set a Schedule for Reviewing
Touchpoints for marketing and advertising don’t end once you create and implement your new strategy. Marketing channels and your operational processes will continue to evolve and change. So, your customer mapping must do the same.
A customer touchpoint map is a work in progress. You will need to continue to revise and update the touchpoint map as new purchasing paths are created and new marketing platforms are introduced.
To effectively use touchpoint mapping as a way to create better customer experiences, you need to make it a continual priority. It will likely fail to produce results if you approach it as a one-time strategy. So put in the up-front work, and then set a plan to execute and continue to refine your touchpoint mapping to get the best benefits and results.
Audit Your Customer Touchpoints Right Now
If you want to start improving your touchpoint mapping right now — start by doing an audit of your current customer touchpoints. Use the free customer experience retail audit worksheet from Spectrio to conduct a review of the major touchpoints that customers experience inside and outside of your store. | <urn:uuid:7b7477ad-b362-40bf-97ad-bdffc75a6ace> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://blog.producersdigital.com/2017/09/19/how-to-use-touchpoint-mapping-to-improve-customer-experiences/ | 2020-09-30T15:12:27Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600402127075.68/warc/CC-MAIN-20200930141310-20200930171310-00209.warc.gz | en | 0.921669 | 1,299 |

THE HISTORY OF BRITISH PRISON HULKS, 1776-1864
The history of British prison hulks has been largely overlooked, despite the fact that they housed two types of inmate; prisoners of war and convicts. Furthermore, their image as ‘hell on water’ has undermined our understanding of these floating prisons as lived experiences. With reference to NMM collections, this paper will examine regime, defiance and productivity on board the hulks, ultimately restoring the lives of prisoners to their complex history.

Anxiety for Beginners
How It Feels to Live With Anxiety and How To Make The Best Of ItWhen Eleanor Morgan published a first-person account of her struggles with anxiety as part of the online series the VICE Guide to Mental Health, the response was staggering. Within four days, the article was read by five million people in fifteen countries, prompted tens of thousands of reader responses and was endorsed by numerous high-profile celebrities, including Caitlin Moran.
In Anxiety for Beginners, Morgan digs even deeper, combining her own experiences—rendered in achingly honest, often hilarious detail—with extensive research and input from experts: neuroscientists, psychiatrists, psychologists and fellow sufferers, including some familiar faces. With her brilliant wit and warmth, Morgan not only examines the roots of her own anxiety, but also investigates what might be contributing to the suffering of so many of us around the world. At its heart, Anxiety for Beginners is a book about acceptance, as Morgan explores how learning to accept anxiety as part of who we are, rather than wasting years being ashamed of it, can help us live lives that are not just manageable but enjoyable.

In 2010, Cremades founded with Tanya Prive, the investment crowdfunding platform for startups RockThePost. After one year of development they were able to launch the platform to the public on November 23, 2011. In less than a year, the platform was already mentioned by TIME as one of the best crowdfunding platforms in the world, as one of the top 10 digital tools for entrepreneurs by Forbes and as one of the hottest startups to watch by Business Insider.
Cremades joined officially as CEO of RockThePost on May 1, 2012. Prior to RockThePost, Cremades worked as a lawyer at King & Spalding where he was involved in one of the biggest investment arbitration cases in history which was Chevron v.

The decision to restrict Zambian Ambassadors and High Commissioners from issuing statements and appearing on programmes without getting permission has nothing to do with politics but for control and order, says newly-appointed Ministry of Information and Broadcasting Services Permanent Secretary Amos Malupenga.
In a letter written to media heads of ZNBC, Times of Zambia, Daily Mail and ZANIS dated January 7, 2020, Malupenga stated that the public media should not use or publish or circulate media statements from Zambian Missions abroad that have been issued without clearance from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
“This serves to advise that government, through the Ministry of Foreign Affairs has directed state owned media organizations namely Zambia National Broadcasting Corporation (ZNBC), Times of Zambia, Zambia Daily Mail and ZANIS not to circulate, publish or air any media statements or content from Zambia’s Missions abroad, which have not been approved by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs,” the letter read.
“In the same vein, all appearances on television through interviews and special programmes and feature profiles in the newspapers by Zambia’s Ambassadors and High Commissioners have to be sanctioned by the office of the Permanent Secretary at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs through a letter. This directive, which is in line with laid down government procedures and guidelines will help to ensure proper organization, consistency and coordination in the dissemination of information to the public.”
Explaining the directive, Malupenga said there were guidelines for government’s communication procedure, which should not be misconstrued as political.
“Officers from missions abroad have not been banned from issuing statements, they have just been guided on instructions to follow; the instruction that they cannot issue statements to the media, which have not been cleared by Foreign Affairs. Those are the normal guidelines in government communications where they will need to get authority from the offices that supervise their operations. Those supervising the officers from missions abroad should not wake up and learn of things from the media instead of things going straight to their offices. Those measures, those controls… this is a clear guideline in terms of government communications. If you are as a journalist, you are doing everything on your own without the editor, there will be no control, meaning whatever you want to say will be said,” Malupenga explained in an interview in Lusaka.
“So, if there is any Ambassador or High Commissioner who wants to appear on ‘Let the people talk’ radio programme, before they go to appear, they are supposed to notify Foreign Affairs and say, ‘I have been invited to appear for a programme on this subject of discussion’ and then the Permanent Secretary at Foreign Affairs is going to say, ‘go ahead, and on this subject, there are limitations, you can go this far, beyond this, you cannot discuss’ or they will tell you ‘don’t go.’ If the statement is not cleared by Foreign Affairs, it cannot be published.”
He said the notice issued last week was not political and did not target any individuals.
“We are not looking at individuals, we are looking at all officers. That statement did not mention any names and mainly this is press attaché’s, High Commissioners or Ambassadors. So, when you notice a divergence from the normal procedures…that is why we are reminding them. This is not about politics, this about communication in government. As you know, I am not a politician, politicians are dealt with at the party secretariat. This is a pure administrative issue. Even for me to talk to you, I need to get authority. I don’t think it is contentious; there is nothing political about it,” said Malupenga. | <urn:uuid:4f74a01d-8338-4b4d-bc2e-95e5976a2768> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://diggers.news/local/2020/01/13/no-zambian-envoy-is-banned-from-issuing-statements-theyve-just-been-guided-on-procedure-malupenga/ | 2020-09-30T15:58:13Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600402127075.68/warc/CC-MAIN-20200930141310-20200930171310-00209.warc.gz | en | 0.960177 | 778 |
And every priest stands h daily at his service, i offering repeatedly the same sacrifices, j which can never take away sins.
But when Christ had offered for all time a single sacrifice for sins, he k sat down at the right hand of God,
English Standard Version (ESV) The Holy Bible, English Standard Version Copyright © 2001 by Crossway Bibles, a division of Good News Publishers.
And you shall say to them, This is the food offering that you shall offer to the Lord : two male lambs a year old without blemish, day by day, as a regular offering.
For every high priest chosen from among men is appointed to act on behalf of men in relation to God, to offer gifts and sacrifices for sins.
For since the law has but a shadow of the good things to come instead of the true form of these realities, it can never, by the same sacrifices that are continually offered every year, make perfect those who draw near.
For it is impossible for the blood of bulls and goats to take away sins.
(which is symbolic for the present age). According to this arrangement, gifts and sacrifices are offered that cannot perfect the conscience of the worshiper.
He is the radiance of the glory of God and the exact imprint of his nature, and he upholds the universe by the word of his power. After making purification for sins, he sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high.
So then the Lord Jesus, after he had spoken to them, was taken up into heaven and sat down at the right hand of God. | <urn:uuid:e45d9678-4694-45e5-ae6b-73adf31c06b9> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://ebible.com/esv/hebrews/10/11/-/10/12 | 2020-09-30T15:26:43Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600402127075.68/warc/CC-MAIN-20200930141310-20200930171310-00209.warc.gz | en | 0.957794 | 328 |

The Erie County Health Department is investigating a case of mumps at Margaretta High School.
The Erie County Health Department is working with the Ohio Department of Health and Margaretta Local Schools regarding a case of mumps at Margaretta High School. This is the first mumps case identified in Erie County in 2019.
Mumps is a contagious viral disease. The symptoms include fever, headache, and swelling of the salivary glands. Other symptoms associated with mumps are fatigue, muscle aches, and loss of appetite.
Anyone with symptoms should contact their healthcare provider for evaluation. If you do not have a primary health care provider or are unable to get into them today, the Erie County Health Department / Erie County Community Health Center will be offering a walk in clinic today. If an exposed person has not been vaccinated against mumps, receiving the vaccine after exposure to the virus will not help prevent disease if the person has already been infected. However, if they did not become infected after this particular exposure, the vaccine may help protect him or her against future infection with the mumps virus.
Mumps is spread through saliva or mucus on objects or surfaces touched by an infected person. Mumps does not linger in the air, so people at highest risk are those who share personal items with or who are within 3 feet of an infected individual (close contacts).
The Erie County Health Department is working to notify close contacts and has provided recommendations to all school districts in Erie County. The general public, including those who live in the same community, have a low risk of getting mumps from this case.
All individuals have some risk of getting mumps, vaccinated and unvaccinated. However, someone who is fully vaccinated is 9 times less likely to get mumps than someone who is unvaccinated with the same exposure to the mumps virus. Also a vaccinated person is likely to have a less severe illness than an unvaccinated person. Mumps that occurs in pregnant women is generally benign and not more severe than in women who are not pregnant, like other infections there is a theoretical risk that mumps during early months of pregnancy may cause complications.

Bartok strode into the tavern. Green wood smoldered in the hearth, filling the main room with a cloud of smoke that crawled along the ceiling. All the windows were shuttered, despite the summer heat, so that the smoke had little escape.
Much of the town’s citizenry occupied the tavern. They filled the tables to overflowing, so that most of them sat on the floor. Some had tankards of ale. Fewer still had plates of light fare. Almost all of them just sat there, suppressing smoke-induced coughing.
Bartok approached the barman, who busied himself with another customer. In the corner, a small girl leaned into her mother.
“Is that the one who killed the dragon?” she asked, her face glowing with awe.
“Yes, dear,” the mother whispered.
The little girl stared at Bartok. He felt her eyes roam his massive frame, from the boots well-worn with adventure to the leather tunic studded with metal rings and the sword as long as a man’s leg strapped to his powerful back. When she took in more air to speak, he tensed his shoulders and gritted his teeth.
“I hate you!” the little girl shouted. Her mother pulled her close and hushed her.
Bartok felt the crowd bristle, but they too saw the massive frame and the sword as long as a man’s leg. As one they thought better of speaking. Still, their collective silence roared in Bartok’s ears, and he left the tavern.
The air slapped him in the face as soon as he stepped into the street. His mouth turned to a frown. He opened it to breathe, concerned that the filthy air was going unfiltered into his body. Even for one who was used to the battlefield, Bartok could not summon the strength to inhale through his nose.
At the top of the shallow hill that dominated the valley, the dragon’s corpse bloated with rot. It seemed to be waiting for Bartok to look, for the moment he did, the pressure inside the dead beast reached the point of no resistance. The scaled belly, stretched to six times its normal size, exploded. Slime fell in gobbets down the gentle slope, only barely failing to reach the closest buildings. A new cloud of putrefaction swallowed Bartok, and he retched inside his mouth. Had he eaten at all in the last two days he would have thrown it up. Instead, he spat out a mouthful of bile and continued down the empty main street to the mayor’s house.
His rap on the door induced a snapping response.
“Come in and be quick about it!”
Bartok opened the door and found heavy curtains had been draped over the entrance. He pushed past the cloth and into a room reeking of incense and smoking herbs. Acrid and unpleasant, the air was a welcome relief.
“What can I do…?” the mayor said as he entered from the back room. He stopped full in his tracks, a cloth in his hands to wipe off sawdust. “Oh, it’s you.”
“Do you have it yet?” Bartok asked.
The mayor turned and opened a box on the shelf. He took out a small bag that jingled with coins. He tossed it across the room, and Bartok deftly caught it.
“It was almost not worth it,” said the mayor. “Some have said they preferred the dragon’s occasional raids.”
“I doubt they really would,” Bartok said. “It is only in hindsight they believe it.”
“Take your gold and go.”
“I have been eager to do so for days. When you said you would pay me to slay that beast, I did not know it would take you two weeks to raise the funds.”
“We are a town of lumbermen and millers. Do you think we always keep gold on hand?”
“It is what you offered. You should have known someone would come to collect it.”
“We didn’t know it would be so soon. We didn’t know a great deal about dragonslaying. That corpse will fester for months.”
Bartok ended the conversation by leaving the house. Back in the open air that reeked of putrescence, he couldn’t help but agree with the mayor. They knew so very little about dragons, especially dead ones. For example, they didn’t know the body should be burned. It takes a great deal of wood, and to these lumbermen who look at each log like it was made of silver, the concept of simply burning it all was impossible to fathom. Still, it was the only way to keep the smell from attracting a rival male into the territory.
If they had paid him last week, he would have told them to burn the body. As he saddled his horse, Bartok wondered if the people who told the mayor they preferred a live dragon to a dead one imagined their wish would come true in the next few days.
He would give them a month then return and ask for twice his fee. And if they didn’t have it ready sooner, he would keep his mouth shut again and ask triple for the next one.

Although it is sometimes difficult to distinguish John Croft from his father and namesake, we can be reasonably sure that the latter died in about 1371, holding the estates in Dalton which had belonged to his family from the reign of Henry II if not before. We know that by 1396 John was also in possession of the manor of Leghton; the advowson of Claughton church and land in Yealand Conyers and Over Kellet in Lancashire, as well as other property across the border in Farleton, Westmorland. His income as a rentier was later estimated at about £40 p.a., although he may well have been far richer. His inheritance in Dalton alone was evidently quite extensive, as in 1372 he obtained a royal licence to impark 500 acres of arable and woodland there. The problem of keeping poachers out of his free warren exercised him considerably at this time, and he was involved in litigation against several people for trespass. Paradoxically, John himself had earlier, in 1365, stood charged of stealing deer, fish and timber from the widowed Joan Coupland; and he had been summoned before two commissions of oyer and terminer as a result — albeit with no detrimental effect upon his career.8
In August 1368 either John or his father witnessed a deed for the prior of Lancaster. It was almost certainly the younger man who, three years later, began to serve as a royal tax collector in Lancashire; and from then on he appeared regularly as a crown commissioner. He married at some point before 1377, when he and his wife sued out various writs in the chancery of the duchy of Lancaster. His relations with John of Gaunt, the duke, grew steadily closer, for as one of his leading feudal tenants it was natural that Croft should be called upon to hold some local office. The date of his appointment as verderer of the forests of Quernmore and Wyresdale is not recorded, but in 1387 he was replaced because of the demands made upon his time by the three duchy stewardships which he had already exercised for four years. Other urgent business preoccupied him during this period, and in January 1385, not long after he had been knighted, he prepared to leave England for Portugal, probably on a diplomatic mission concerning Gaunt’s claim to the throne of Castile.9 On his return he became involved in financial transactions with the vicar of Kirkby Lonsdale, executed two further royal commissions and, in September 1388, took his seat for the first time in the House of Commons. He was again returned by the electors of Lancashire two years later, having meanwhile spent some time on garrison duty at Berwick-upon-Tweed, defending the east march against the Scots. He evidently made a favourable impression upon the King, who retained him, in March 1391, at an annual fee of £10 payable for life. Being now a man of considerable influence, Sir John was able to arrange a marriage between his eldest son, Nicholas, and Ellen, the daughter and heir of John Boteler of Merton, who, being also a wealthy widow, was indeed a valuable prize. The death of Nicholas’s paternal uncle, Richard (after being recently pardoned for the murder of one of Gaunt’s assize judges) and the reversion to Sir John of the estates which he had held for life in Over Kellet, made possible a further settlement of property upon the couple in the following year, when Sir John set aside the land to their use. His daughters, too, made good marriages, one becoming the second wife of Sir William Curwen*, who, in August 1395, conveyed a substantial part of his extensive holdings in Westmorland and Cumberland upon Sir John and others, presumably as a jointure for his new bride. Having served as a juror at an inquisition held in about 1397 to determine the ownership of property at Nether Derwent, Sir John sat on a wide-scale commission to investigate the concealment of crown revenues in the north-west. His presence on this body, in the spring and summer of 1398, no less than the award of a second annuity of £20 by Richard I I, suggests that he still stood high in the King’s favour, although he none the less deemed it expedient to sue out formal letters of pardon at this time.10
In point of fact, Sir John’s attachment to Richard II was by no means so strong as to jeopardize his position once Henry of Bolingbroke had seized the throne. Mindful not only of Sir John’s loyal service to his father, Gaunt, but also of his wide experience as an administrator, the newly-crowned Henry IV confirmed him in the first of his two annuities; and at some point before October 1402 he made him captain of the castle of Marck in the march of Calais. While in office, Sir John spent several months at Calais as an ambassador for the negotiation of a truce with Flanders, receiving 20 marks by way of both reward and expenses. He was, none the less, obliged to relinquish his post in February 1405, ostensibly because old age and ill health prevented him from remaining overseas. His captaincy was marked by a territorial dispute with his predecessor, John Lancaster II*, which had still to be settled three years later. Notwithstanding his reputed illness, Sir John was well enough to raise troops for Henry IV during the turbulent summer of 1405, and also to perform another round of jury service in the following year. Nor did age prevent him from attending the Lancashire elections held some years later to the Parliaments of 1413 (May) and 1419.11
The precise date of Sir John’s death is unclear, being given in one source as 31 Dec. 1419, and in another as the following July. He was survived by his second wife, Joan, and by his eldest son, who inherited the bulk of his estates and later received an annuity of £10 from the Crown.12

India’s most wanted fugitive Nirav Modi, has been located in the United Kingdom, CBI confirmed. The Interpol informed the Indian authorities about Nirav Modi’s location on 16 August.

Although the RCN helps, “Locate the provisionally arrest an individual” against whom a valid national arrest warrant has been issued, the Interpol can not compel any member country to arrest an individual against whom the RCN has been issued.
Each member country holds a different legal value for RCN within their borders. However , RCN helps restrict the movement of the fugitive to other countries, as The quint reported.

Earlier this month, The Government had told parliament that an extradition request for Nirav Modi had been sent to the UK. The request sent by Special Diplomatic Bag to the High Commission of India in London, VK Singh, Minister of State for external Affairs, said in Parliament.
As Nirav Modi is the fugtitive India has asked the UK to extradite since 2002. The UK Government has rejected India’s request nine timed in the last 16 years.
Nirav Modi and his family left India in the first week of Jan 2018, when a case against him and Mehul Choski was registred by the CNI on 30 Jan 2018 under the prevention of Corruption Act for causing alleged loss to the PNB to the tune of Rs 13,000 crore.
Meanwhile, the Enforcement Directorate registered a case against the duo under the money laundering Act.
On July 8, Choski escaped to Antigua from the US , later it was found that he had taken Antiguan citizenship in Nov 2017.

Newcastle literary group, Noir at the Bar, has brought together crime writers to publish a collection of short, fictional (allegedly…) crime stories.
Running for over four years from Newcastle’s The Town Wall pub, the physical event was an opportunity for crime authors to showcase their creative prowess with fellow writers and crime fiction enthusiasts.
When the government lockdown started, Noir’s founder, writer and creative writing tutor Vic Watson, looked to move the event online. She invited authors to a free, weekly virtual get together, and Simon Bewick provided marketing and technical support. One week later, the first Virtual Noir at the Bar launched.
In less than two months, the weekly live event has been seen by hundreds of attendees live and thousands watching the recordings the following day. Over 70 authors have already appeared at Virtual Noir at the Bar, with over 100 more scheduled up to August.
The duo wanted to create something lasting from these virtual events, and so Noir from the Bar was conceived – a collection of 20+ short crime stories. Created, and published in just six weeks, with publication date scheduled for June 10th 2020, the anthology features best-sellers authors including Neil Broadfoot, Roz Watkins, Sharon (SJ) Bolton and Zoe Sharp, plus some of the best up-and-coming writers in the genre today, stretching from Newcastle to New Zealand. All contributors have given their time and work for free and have agreed that all proceeds should go towards supporting our NHS through this quiet period.
Vic Watson said of the project: “Although we run our events from a local pub, they have previously attracted writers visiting the UK from Iceland, Germany and America, so we knew there would be a global appetite for people to get involved in a virtual event. Running Virtual Noir at the Bar has given us the ability to host writers from across world, together in the one space. We’ve even had authors in New Zealand getting up at 6:30am to appear and bringing an audience with them!
“As with our events, I’m keen to showcase new and emerging writers alongside established authors within the anthology. People may buy it because of the writers they’re familiar with, but they’ll be treated to stories from writers that within a few years will be household names.”
Simon added: “Knowing what Vic has achieved with Noir at the Bar and with the amazing network of authors she has, it seemed an opportunity to use my twenty five years in the publishing industry to create something beyond the event itself: a lasting experience for readers and a way to raise some money at the same time. In all my years, both working for one of the world’s most respected publishers, and my experiences in being published myself, I’ve never known a project come together so quickly. Everyone involved has given their absolute best, with the vast majority of authors writing something new specifically for the anthology. Anyone buying the book will not only get some of the best short crime and mystery fiction available at a fantastic price but will be donating to the NHS – it’s a win, win situation!”
Noir from the Bar will be available from June 10th, via Amazon Kindle, for £2.99 (paperback details to follow). All proceeds will go to NHS Charities Together.

Finally. And I’m a $&#%ing year older. Yippee . . . Anyhow, the speculation gabfest is still in frenzy mode as everybody knows the Niners are not going to draft 13 players. I’d say somewhere in the 6-8 range is likely. 7 being the number I’d go with. I think we will trade up in the 1st, and trade back to next year. And I still think the Niners are targeting a safety. Either Brenda Vaccaro or Su-Su Cyprien. There are plenty of big bodies in the mid to later rounds that should be able to fill our needs. Magnus von Magnusson could very well be available with the 31st pick (63rd overall) in the 2nd round. People are likely scared off by his age. So, concievably the Niners could get their safety and their big body guy without too much damage.
How far they’ll need to trade up to get Vaccaro remains to be seen. It’s looking like they’ll need to get to Miami. They want him. We could trade Rogers to Miami and give them our 34 and our 3rd round (93rd overall) pick. Vaccaro had a shitty 40 time, but his shuttle times were among the best. He was able to keep guys like Ryan Swope and Tavon Austin in check. He also was able to track down and tackle Austin from behind in a game last year. Football speed is different than track speed, and he proves it.
All the talk about DL is important, but we do have players on the line at this time. Yes, we are thin and need depth, but the more pressing need is FS. Goldson is gone. Justin Smith isn’t. Ergo, Vaccaro. And yeah, I know Soap and RJF are gone. But we did get Tommy Dorsey and Ian Williams was bumped up the depth chart. Ergo Vaccaro or Cyprien. | <urn:uuid:38d97628-233e-45bf-b60b-fcc5370328ce> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://ninersforever.com/2013/04/25/draft-day-is-here/ | 2020-09-30T16:11:13Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600402127075.68/warc/CC-MAIN-20200930141310-20200930171310-00209.warc.gz | en | 0.982468 | 418 |

Simulation of Groundwater Flow and Analysis of Projected Water Use for the Rush Springs Aquifer, Western Oklahoma
The U.S. Geological Survey, in cooperation with the Bureau of Reclamation and the Oklahoma Water Resources Board, (1) quantified the groundwater resources of the Rush Springs aquifer in western Oklahoma by developing a numerical groundwater-flow model, (2) evaluated the effects of estimated equal-proportionate-share (EPS) pumping rates on aquifer storage and streamflow for time periods of 20, 40, and 50 years into the future, (3) assessed the uncertainty in the EPS scenario results, and (4) evaluated the effects of (a) projected groundwater-use rates extended 50 years into the future and (b) sustained hypothetical drought conditions over a 10-year period on stream base flow and groundwater in storage.
The Rush Springs aquifer is an important source of water for municipal and irrigation use by many communities and agricultural users in the study area. The study area is composed of about 4,970 square miles (3,181,003 acres) of Rush Springs aquifer bedrock deposits located in 14 counties. The study area also includes the alluvium and terrace deposits of the Canadian and Washita Rivers, as well as alluvium along the Little Washita River, Deer Creek, and a number of smaller tributaries of the Washita River that overlie the bedrock.
A numerical groundwater-flow model of the Rush Springs aquifer was constructed by using MODFLOW with the Newton solver. Groundwater flow was simulated for January 1979–December 2015 by using monthly stress periods, and an initial steady-state stress period was configured to represent mean annual inflows and outflows. The model was calibrated to groundwater-level observations at selected wells, monthly base flow at nine streamgages, stream seepage as estimated for the conceptual water budget, and Fort Cobb Reservoir stage.
The EPS scenarios for the Rush Springs aquifer were run for periods of 20, 40, and 50 years. The 20-, 40-, and 50-year EPS pumping rates under normal recharge conditions were 0.82, 0.49, and 0.43 acre-foot per acre per year, respectively. Given the 2,954,545-acre aquifer area used for the EPS scenarios, the 20-year rate corresponds to an annual yield of about 2,422,727 acre-feet per year. Groundwater storage at the end of the 20-year EPS scenario was about 13,321,000 acre-feet, or about 31,516,437 acre-feet (70 percent) less than the starting EPS scenario storage. This decrease in storage was equivalent to a mean groundwater-level decline of about 152 feet. Water availability under the EPS pumping rate was primarily from the western area of the model. Saturation was sustained though the entire EPS scenario where the aquifer was sufficiently thick or a shallow hydraulic gradient was present. Fort Cobb Reservoir stage was below the dead-pool stage after about 5 years of 20-year EPS pumping.
An uncertainty analysis was conducted to assess the uncertainty in the EPS scenario results. An ensemble of 400 random sets of possible parameter values was performed for the uncertainty analysis by using a multivariate normal distribution centered on the calibrated parameter values. The parameter bounds for the uncertainty analysis were determined by using the posterior covariance matrix, which allows for the incorporation of knowledge gained during the calibration process as well as observation uncertainty and the correlation between estimated parameters. The uncertainty results indicate a 95-percent confidence interval for the 20-year EPS pumping rate between 0.73 and 0.95 acre-foot per acre per year.
Projected 50-year pumping scenarios were used to simulate the effects of selected well withdrawal rates on groundwater storage of the Rush Springs aquifer. The effects of well withdrawals were evaluated by comparing changes in groundwater storage between four 50-year scenarios using (1) no groundwater use, (2) mean groundwater use for the study period (1979–2015), (3) increasing groundwater use, and (4) groundwater use at the 2015 rate. The increasing-use scenario assumed a 38-percent increase in pumping over 50 years on the basis of 2010–60 demand projections for western Oklahoma. Simulated groundwater storage changes ranged between an increase of 6.3 percent for the scenario with no groundwater use, and 0.9 percent for the scenario with 2015 groundwater-use rates. For the Fort Cobb Reservoir surface watershed, simulated groundwater storage changes ranged between an increase of 23.6 percent for the scenario with no groundwater use and a decrease of 4.0 percent for the increasing groundwater-use scenario. Groundwater-level changes were generally greater in areas with a large concentration of groundwater wells and groundwater use such as the Fort Cobb Reservoir surface watershed.
A hypothetical 10-year drought scenario was used to simulate the effects of a prolonged period of reduced recharge on the Rush Springs aquifer groundwater storage and Fort Cobb Reservoir stage and storage. Drought effects were quantified by comparing the results of the drought scenario to those of the calibrated numerical model. To simulate the hypothetical drought, recharge in the calibrated numerical model was reduced by 50 percent during the simulated drought period (1983–1992), and upstream inflows to the Canadian and Washita Rivers and associated tributaries were reduced by 37 percent. Groundwater storage at the end of the hypothetical drought period in December 1992 was about 42,983,000 acre-feet, or about 3,525,000 acre-feet (7.6 percent) less than the groundwater storage of the calibrated numerical model. This change in groundwater storage is equivalent to a mean groundwater-level decline of 15.8 feet. Simulated mean base-flow declines at the Canadian and Washita River streamgages were between 39 and 59 percent during the drought period. The minimum stage in Fort Cobb Reservoir at the end of the hypothetical drought period was 1,311 feet, indicating a storage capacity of only 10 percent of active conservation pool storage. The Fort Cobb Reservoir storage declines mostly resulted from reduced base flows in Cobb, Lake, and Willow Creeks upstream from the reservoir.

Easter. It’s not much of a holiday compared to the Star Wars-franchise that is Christmas and the Avatar that is Halloween (now #2 in overall holiday spending). Easter, in cinematic terms, seems to me something out of Eric Rohmer: Frenchy, Catholic, seemingly full of fresh air and sunlight while remaining bittersweet and melancholy-tinged. Death is never far from the minds of Catholics, especially on this occasion. I would argue that Easter doesn’t get as far as a popular holiday because, jelly beans and chicks aside, it’s not an easy one. Easter contains the very essence of humanity: death, suffering and, just possibly, rebirth, in both its secular and religious applications.
Thought of mostly as a children’s holiday involving bunnies and egg hunts, Easter is actually the greatest holiday of the year. Why? It’s much less hyped than Halloween and “the Holidays.” It doesn’t really demand that you buy gifts for anyone or send cards—unless you want to. For people with small children, it’s a chance to enjoy a holiday which has remained strictly for children in its childish ways. There are no embarrassing costumes or horrifying office parties. Adults with no children may not even celebrate at all.
What does Easter even mean? Apparently the English term for the season has nothing to do with Jesus. It’s said to come from the name of a Germanic pagan goddess. It’s as if we were still calling Christmas “Yule.” Easter’s secular application—that is, officially marking the transition from winter to spring—doesn’t seem all that important any more; even less so in the age of encroaching climate change. Spring has become just a sort of polleny pause before summer, which is a more “real” season, somehow.
I, for one, am totally shocked by the appearance of hyacinths and cherry blossoms every year. I don’t imagine that flowers and trees are going to blossom again during the dregs of winter. Each year, I become convinced that I’m living in a dystopian Soviet future state where the weather is always tuned to the frequency of late January. When spring comes (as it always does), I’m thrilled again. Even if you’re not religious or don’t have children, Easter deserves a little bit of ritual. I have one nonbeliever friend who celebrates it by drinking red wine and watching The Life of Brian. Another makes Latvian Easter eggs to honor her forebears.
Easter is unique amongst the majors in being a movable feast, which might have something to do with its bottom-tier status in contemporary thought. We tend to like to know when, exactly, our holidays are going to be, but Easter falls after the first full moon after the spring equinox, which is full of all kinds of glamour and intrigue to me, but might be off-putting to serious Type-A personalities.
In The History of Time: A Very Short Introduction, Leofranc Holford-Stevens devotes an entire chapter to Easter and the struggle to find it and map it, which, he posits, was one of the major factors in shaping the modern calendar. Easter has fallen in significance, to put it mildly, which is another reason I think it’s tops. I tend to like underdogs and faded glory. I live in Baltimore.
Easter, for Catholics, is the most theologically significant celebration of the year. Easter, and its season, Lent, are about pain, sacrifice, and trying to correct one’s course before it’s (yikes) too late. I’m talking about death, of course—the great Catholic preoccupation. Not just death, but suffering, torture, abandonment. The great comedian Lenny Bruce nailed the oddness of Catholics’ cruci-fixation with his joke “If Jesus had been killed twenty years ago, Catholic school children would be wearing little electric chairs around their necks instead of crosses.”
I think we do so in order to keep our focus. Our brains want to think about anything but the inevitable, so some effort must be made to orient ourselves to the truth. It’s an odd quirk of human psychology that, even though we are aware that we will die, we do everything in our power to distract from this knowledge. But it’s a surety: we will all die. We will all suffer, at least emotionally, if not materially or physically.
I was surprised by how much I thought about the suffering of Jesus recently during one year of cancer treatment and an additional year as a cancer vaccine test subject. I didn’t actually understand what it meant to physically suffer before this point in my life, and, while I do not know what it feels like to be hung from a cross, I do understand physical distress which is so great it feels like one has been abandoned not only by everyone and everything you hold dear, but by life itself. By God.
Which brings me to the greatest reason why Easter is the true Queen of Holidays. Easter brings us a message of hope and joy in the face of the worst kind of suffering imaginable. Easter says that God hasn’t forsaken us, even when it feels like he absolutely has. Suffering will end, which is something I had to chant to myself when I was in such deep physical distress that I couldn’t move, couldn’t eat, couldn’t even talk, really. Having my eyes open or closed seem to make no difference. Seconds seemed not to touch each other—time crawled with vast, spiked-glass liminal spaces between them. But I made it through; it took a while, but Easter dawned for me as well.
On Easter morning, when it’s read that Jesus is not in his tomb, I’m surprised once more, just as I am when I see spring’s flowers. Jesus thought that God had abandoned him and cried out “My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?” But three days later, he walked again, just as the first tiny, translucent leaves appear as if by magic each year. Love always triumphs on Easter. Rebirth happens. Even if you’re not a Christian, the cycle of life on Earth will continue after you’re dead.
I saw a patch of tulips yesterday in my neighborhood, and I remembered plunking my then-baby daughter down in front of them and snapping some photos. She glared impressively in one and I made a card that said “Have a Crabby Day” on it and sent it to a friend, Carla, who was going through chemotherapy, which she really appreciated since all the other cards she got were way too cheerful. Carla is, of course, now dead, and my daughter is beginning to learn multiplication, but the tulips still bloom, regardless. What could be more important than this? Easter is a time to acknowledge that our time here is limited and that life will continue in some form or another after we are gone.
Lastly, on Easter, there are large quantities of chocolate and it’s quite all right to eat it in the morning, if you so desire. Because Lent is over, Hallelujah. | <urn:uuid:8a09d97a-b1d6-44cb-aa10-16a56b3d9b58> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://religiondispatches.org/easter-the-underdog-holiday/ | 2020-09-30T14:24:41Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600402127075.68/warc/CC-MAIN-20200930141310-20200930171310-00209.warc.gz | en | 0.970057 | 1,553 |
Live Techno Formations
Utrecht based community “ShowKaas” started out in 2012 as a feedback group for deejays/producers/vj’s and other creative music-lovers to share knowledge, inspire, help out and connect. The ShowKaas Group is a place where producers and deejays receive music and creation related news and tips, discuss current events and receive quality feedback on tracks and sets. Same goes for their various network gatherings and educational events in the physical world. The crew consists of six experienced musicians – they produce, dj, perform live, and like to share their insights, inspiration and knowledge.
Innovative, creative and versatile – that’s what techno should be like, according to the ShowKaas team. Based on this vision they decided to bound their experiences to build a cooperative live techno concept: “Symbiotic Sessions”.
In november 2014 the first edition launched at ACU Utrecht. The feedback of the audience and professionals from the music industry confirmed they were on the right track. With weekly jams and practice sessions they perfected the concept and worked out different methods, techniques and types of sets in variable formations.
Now they are ready for the next demonstration – With cases full of gear they will to take you on an energetic trip from melodic, groovy to dark and hard atmospheric techno, combined with awesome lights and visuals.
On-stage: Synthesizers, Drum Machines, Bass Guitars, Mixers, Sound Modulators, MIDI Controllers, Vocoders, Turntables and more.

This year, it's gonna take a lot for us to get into the top three, but I think we have a chance to get in the top three and big news for this game. Gentle.
That's another gold.
Oh, without getting bulking, any insist.
That means Jenkins is leading the team in points over 30.
He's having a big year.
Malkin's having a big year without Crosby in there, which is normal when Crosby is not flying.
Malkin thrives and that's always know normal, because Crosby and he's on the eyes.
He is the main guy, and Morgan isn't a lot.
He's on the second.
Malkin's the best one on the team right now, so you ought to give him credit and Montreal burning Gallagher and all those guys.
They played a tough game.
They just came out and started scoring.
And it was not a good game, really.
The Montreal walked over Pittsburgh.
You could tell the whole game Pittsburgh was not.
It was gas and not have on energy in this game.
Started out the first period with energy, and second period was over.
It was 31 It was just you knew by then it was like It's hard.
It's just you knew it was over.
It was not coming back to be good and even more surprising, the Penguins.
Now it's like I said earlier are the five seed and they they really have to work their way up Now there's a lot of teams that could beat them out, but I mean, really, I should not worry really have much.
Last year they were last in the division around late November and they came back and ended up being a free seed to know.
And they ended up, uh, going to the playoffs. Yes.
They lost in the playoffs.
It can't win selling up every year.
I wish I could, but I can't s o.
Is this a Tina won the cup? Probably not.
Is this the team was a playoff team? Probably.
But I mean, every year we should be a playoff team.
I don't care what year it is, but when we have Mulligan, Gino and Crosby on the ice and even with Denzel, I'm civilian is weak.
And Wingate? This team is gonna Yes, they lose 4 to 1, but they still have a good goalie problem.
One loss is not gonna make Tristan jury cry.
It's just one game. You got to get over.
You can't be done with this game.
Ah, it's over now.
You wanna be out? Uh, okay.
The penguins are now the five seed, and they need to get more credit for what they deserve.
Their applying good teams are Air Mario.
Exactly. I'm still talking.
That's my annoying brother.
Uh, penguins now would be the five seed, and they control their own destiny to make the playoffs.
This is just a crazy world.
Wind your for the Penguins with Mike's over and all the goalies.
Oh, it's been crazy, and we deserve better than what happened.
We should have won that game.
Yeah, well, we probably shouldn't have, but Montreal had tough to them.
They get away, and now they're coming in three points away from a playoff seed and the Penguins or three parts spots away from being out of a plant seed.
So if you really think about it in a negative way, you think the Penguins were playing back cause we're losing teams, that should be your thing about in a positive way.
Drink and we're gonna go and he's getting more points.
So that's all for the broadcast today about the Penguins getting a tough loss at home against Montreal.
Jake gets a lie, gets head score with Morgan.
Is is staying in.
Gallagher had a lot of points for Montreal | <urn:uuid:1c0edb31-4f99-4f71-b425-1d5d76748d87> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://sportscastr.com/stream/22465382 | 2020-09-30T14:46:29Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600402127075.68/warc/CC-MAIN-20200930141310-20200930171310-00209.warc.gz | en | 0.976552 | 992 |
Week 11 of the NFL season is upon us and it is time to present the weekly series dedicated to early picks for each NFL game in the coming week. These picks are straight up and not against the spread. Here you get who the home team and away teams are as well as the chosen winner with a little data to back up that opinion. It is just that simple, clear and concise.
You will also get a weekly Lock of the Week. Each week I will pick one game that I feel cannot lose. With that will be supporting data to back up that stance. Obviously each week anything can happen as evident by the Detroit Lions knocking off Aaron Rodgers and crew at home for the first time since 1991. in the NFL but there is always a game that sets itself apart from the others. Can Adrian Peterson and the Vikings take sole control of first place by knocking off the Packers? Will Matt Jones, Kirk Cousins and crew have the recipe to take down Tom Brady and a depleted Patriots roster? Without any further trepidation enjoy the 2015-2016 NFL Week 11 Picks and Predictions, Lock of The Week.
Lock of the Week
Seattle Seahawks over San Francisco 49ers
Yep that’s right, I am taking a team with a losing record as the lock of the week. Of course this is not a normal team but rather a team that is arguably underperforming but is nevertheless where they are. The Seattle Seahawks are suffering more than they expected from the trade that brought Jimmy Graham to Seattle. Russell Wilson does not have time and frankly has made some poor decisions but there are moments when they appear to straighten things out.
Now factor in that the Seahawks are playing at home, where it is always hard for opponents to win games, and things become more challenging for the 49ers. Yes, the Seahawks lost twice this year at home but those losses are against the still undefeated Carolina Panthers and arguably the best team in the NFC, the Arizona Cardinals. The Seahawks and crew already easily handled the 49ers in San Francisco this year.
Marshawn Lynch will probably go which will take pressure off Wilson but even if he is not 100 percent, Thomas Rawls has shown he is more than capable of carrying the load. It is true that the 49ers have looked better at home then on the road which does lean in their favor but Carlos Hyde, if he goes, will not be at 100 percent. Also, I know Blaine Gabbert looked decent in his start but excuse me if it is hard to take a lack of talent around him and his track record in Jacksonville to create an expectation of success against the Seahawks. That being said, this is his time to prove he has matured but one heck of a spot to do it in. I just cannot see a way that Seattle loses this one at home.
2015 Lock of the Week Record: 9-1-0
|8:30||Tennessee Titans||Jacksonville Jaguars||Jaguars|
|The Jags won last week in a game that the NFL admitted to screwing up. The Titans could not be saved by the league. The combo of Bortles (who is coming into his own), Robinson, Hurns and crew are just enough to get the job done.|
|1:00||Indianapolis Colts||Atlanta Falcons||Falcons|
|The Colts got a big win last out and stay on top of a horrible division. The Falcons have been struggling of late but got last week to rest and regroup. Who knows what you will get with the Colts especially without Luck. I take the team with a full compliment.|
|1:00||St Louis Rams||Baltimore Ravens||Ravens|
|The Rams have one player in Gurley but that is where it ends on a horrid offense. Foles is benched after another poor showing. The Ravens should have won last week and have more than enough firepower to win at home.|
|1:00||Washington Redskins||Carolina Panthers||Panthers|
|The Redskins output last week cost Rob Ryan his job with the Saints. This defense in Carolina is nothing like that one. Don’t expect 40+ again. Newton will confuse the Redskins and don't be surprised if Cousins gets tricked into a pick 6.|
|1:00||Denver Broncos||Chicago Bears||Bears|
|Who would have thought this game would be talked about as the Bears being the team with a QB.The Broncos Def is great but the team can't run and who knows about Brock. If the Bears score 17 it will probably be enough.|
|1:00||Oakland Raiders||Detroit Lions||Raiders|
|The Lions went on the road to GB and erased a curse since 91. It is hard believe they won with all the mistakes that were made. I am willing to chalk it up as one great day. The Raiders can score and they have a legitimate 1a and 1b at WR. It will be close but I see the Raiders winning on the road.|
|1:00||New York Jets||Houston Texans||Texans|
|The Jets are a good team but they have not delivered since the competition got tougher. The Texans won two in a row and just knocked off the Bengals. New Qi is a bit scary but should be enough if the defense repeats.|
|1:00||Dallas Cowboys||Miami Dolphins||Dolphins|
|The savior returns are Romo is under center again. There will be dust to knock off for sure as chemistry needs to be re-established. The Dolphins defense locked down the Eagles the last three quarters en route to a win last out. I give the Dolphins the edge at home this week but watch Dallas going forward.|
|1:00||Tampa Bay Buccaneers||Philadelphia Eagles||Bucs|
|Tampa comes in off an ugly win against Dallas. The Eagles roll with the Sanchize after the loss of Bradford and the game barring a shocker. Winston and Evans are in lock step now and who knows what the Eagles bring from week to week. In a toss up I take the Bucs.|
|4:05||Kansas City Chiefs||San Diego Chargers||Chargers|
|The Chiefs and an injury made Peyton look his career worst in an impressive win last week. The Chargers return off the bye to see if Rivers can stay hot. They should be rested and ready. Alex Smith cannot win a shootout and I am not positive that West can control the ball. In a close one I like the Chargers.|
|4:25||Green Bay Packers||Minnesota Vikings||Vikings|
|The Curse of Ditka is alive! Obviously not real but since Ditka wore Packers gear the team is 0-3. I hate to say it but they have looked bad lately and got the breaks last week and could not beat Detroit at home. The Vikings are 7-1 since losing the opener. Defense is solid, AP is good and Teddy has a real deep threat. The Vikings take the division lead with a home win.|
|4:25||San Francisco 49ers||Seattle Seahawks||Seahawks|
|Russell Wilson continues to look out of sorts and they are not running like they should but this is the 49ers, the Seahawks are at home and Sherman won't be exposed in back to back weeks.|
|8:30||Cincinnati Bengals||Arizona Cardinals||Cardinals|
|The Texans screwed it up because this is where I thought the Bengals would get their first loss. They looked horrible last week and should rebound a bit but… The Cardinals are quietly really really good and probably the best overall team in the NFC. Palmer is playing to MVP levels and the defense does enough. I love the Cardinals at home.|
|8:30||Buffalo Bills||New England Patriots||Patriots|
|Foxboro is tough place for Rex Ryan. The Patriots are without Lewis and Edelman. The Bills have a full crew (at least at skill). But the Patriots find a way to win and plug and play players and schemes better than any other team. My gut wants to say Buffalo but my head says Patriots.|

“They went through their process and they ended up hiring me, and then the world fell apart.”
The sermon Ben Poole delivered on March 15 was an important one for his future as he spoke to a sanctuary full of parishioners. On March 16 the future changed, and the sanctuary has been empty since.
On that Sunday, Poole preached at First Baptist Church in Scottsbluff, what’s called candidate Sunday where a prospective minister runs the service as somewhat of a tryout in front of the congregation. After the service, the congregation voted on whether Poole would be hired.
“Came back, yes, they were going to hire me,” Poole said. “It was great. I would start Monday morning. Monday morning hit and everything started rolling down the pike pretty quick. So Monday we had an emergency leadership meeting on how we were going to proceed, and it was right then decided we’re going to not meet for at least two weeks.”
Poole and his wife, Valarie, had been attending the church for a couple of months and through the hiring process had gotten to know many of the congregation, but the circumstances he stepped into are far from ideal.
“In the moment, I wasn’t really thinking – because I’ve been part of the church for a while – it didn’t really click that this was how my ministry was starting,” he said. “It wasn’t probably until later on in the week, preparing for a sermon and I was like, ‘My first sermon as the pastor will be to an empty building.’ It was just that realization that this is not what I expected. And I don’t think any of us did by any means.”
The message has still been delivered through online services and Facebook videos, and the church still has side ministries operating such as their firefighter ministry and diaper depot.
“So all of those things are still happening, and I think a lot of the people are using it as an opportunity to talk to their neighbors, to invite them to a church online situation,” Poole said. “Before I got here, I know the church was talking about growing into more of an online presence, getting into that. This has forced all of the churches to just get into it.”
First Baptist this weekend is hoping to bring together a full service with scripture readings, songs and sermon and hopes to be live streaming services by Easter Sunday.
“I’m glad I’m not new to ministry - I’ll say that – because it would be easy to get freaked out by it and all the change,” Poole, who had previously served as senior pastor at Church of Christ in Superior. “It was day one changes. You have to make decisions on the fly and it affects more than me. It affects 100 people directly, so it’s something that I’m thankful for our leadership as we discussed what we were going to do, the decision came across equal across the board that if we’re going to take care of our people in this church – if we really are going to do what we believe is right – we need to honor what the governing authorities are saying and really begin to distance ourselves from each other physically. Then that opened up the door to, OK how do we meet their needs spiritually in the best way that we can? It’s not great for everybody, but I think the for the majority of the people, we’re doing the best we can at the moment with what we have.”
Poole said he is thankful that the community has been understanding through the different levels of shutdown and uncertainty brought on by the pandemic. He said that is one reason he and Valarie chose to relocate here with their two foster daughters. Valarie is from the area, and Poole studied at Summit Christian College.
“I’ve lived a lot of different places, and this area has always felt the most welcoming, family-friendly,” he said. “That’s one reason we were more comfortable moving back here is because this is a place where we want to raise a family. The church has been very welcoming to us and our girls.”
During those initial days of scrambling with what to do, Poole said he remained calm, crediting that to his parents and how they navigated hard times and stressful situations. “It was stressful, but it wasn’t anything I was scared of,” Poole said. “At the base, I know where my faith stands. I know what I believe in. I know the truth of what I believe in. Nothing changes that. If nothing can change that, everything else is manageable. My concerns were the folks that were elderly and couldn’t get out to the grocery store. How do we meet their needs? What do we do to work with them and for them during that time? But it was, ‘OK, God you brought me here. This is all on your timeline. I have no control over that. I have no control over what’s happening in the world, but you obviously set it up where I would be in place as pastor at this moment. I’m trusting you in that because at times that’s all I’ve got is to trust in you.’ So that’s what we’ve done, and it’s worked out pretty well so far. I have no concerns.”
When the coronavirus scare passes and the world returns to a sense of normalcy, Poole looks forward to the first time he gets to preach to a congregation again.
“I’ve thought about having a whole introduction – ‘Hi, my name’s Ben, I’m your preacher, you may not know that anymore,’” he said. “I’ve already told the church, when we come back, we’re throwing a party. It is going to be an awesome celebration as a family comes back together.”

BGP communities you’d want with your BGP powered VPS?
With 2FA and ISO uploading now rolled out into Stallion I’ll be focusing on our next big addon: BGP sessions. This will allow you to announce your IP space (or if you don’t have any, do load balancing via ECMP of your slice instances).
The big thing I’m wanting to know is what BGP communities would you want access to? The main ones I see so far would be:
- Control which upstream your route goes out of (be it a full allow/deny, or prepends)
- Informational communities to know which upstream it was learned from
- Blackholing an IP address
Do you see a need to prepend against users within the location? So, other customers?
Once we got the communities and such worked out we figure we can get this built out in a couple weeks, depending on how busy I get with the New York upgrades. | <urn:uuid:a61c3cd3-6b13-41d9-a5d6-3d2b4880faa3> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://talk.lowendspirit.com/discussion/1315/bgp-communities-you-d-want-with-your-bgp-powered-vps | 2020-09-30T16:55:19Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600402127075.68/warc/CC-MAIN-20200930141310-20200930171310-00209.warc.gz | en | 0.937831 | 208 |
With a population of 1.2 billion, India is a huge market with bags of potential for tech firms and, with that in mind, Amazon is expanding its global reach and stepping up its presence in the country after launching the India Kindle Store and making its Kindle reader available countrywide.
The company has revealed that the newly arrived store holds more than 1 million books — including both international and local titles. In addition, Amazon has launched its Kindle Direct Publishing (KDP) for independent authors and publishers in India. The KDP will help local publishers bring their content to the Kindle platform, making it available both to audiences India and worldwide.
Retailer Croma is the exclusive seller of the Kindle e-reader, which is priced at 6,999 INR, circa $125, and listed on its website now. The retailer’s offering is included on Amazon’s own site Junglee, which launched in February.
“We are proud to launch this new Kindle store for Indian customers – offering Kindle book purchases in rupees and the ability to buy and read the work of many great Indian authors,” said Russ Grandinetti, vice president of Kindle Content, Amazon.com.
“We are excited to be the first retailer in India to offer the latest generation Kindle to our customers. This product will launch exclusively in all Croma stores across India at an introductory price of 6,999 INR,” said Ajit Joshi, CEO and Managing Director of Croma.
With two markers in the sand now — in the form of Junglee and the Kindle Store — it seems more a question of when, rather than if, the company introduces its full ecommerce service in the country.
Aside from its online presence, the company has a significant development center in Hyerabad from where it runs financial and ordering services and inventory management. The center employs more than 3,000 staff and reports last year suggested Amazon would plough $100 million into the facility to double its head count.
The Kindle is leading the charge for digital publishing worldwide and already, according to the company, the effects are being felt. In the UK, Amazon’s ebooks are already outselling print books from its popular Web store, mirroring the trend that has been seen in the US for some time.

At least three more OC sheriff officials knew in 2016 and 2017 of illegally recorded telephone calls between jail inmates and their attorneys, in addition to a sheriff investigator’s knowledge in 2015 of such recordings, according to evidence presented Wednesday in Superior Court.
The disclosures raised questions about what the Sheriff’s Department did or didn’t tell county supervisors when seeking a renewal of the jail phones contract in October 2017.
Sheriff officials emphasized Wednesday evening the attorney-client recordings officials were apparently aware of in 2015, 2016 and 2017 appear to be separate from the computer glitch in January 2015 that caused the recording of more than 30,000 calls with numbers on a do-not-call list. That glitch was not brought to the attention of sheriff officials until June 2018, according to the Sheriff’s Department
Last week, a DA prosecutor testified about a July 2015 report from a sheriff investigator who wrote he had downloaded more than 112 recorded phone calls between inmate Lonnie Kocontes and his attorneys’ phones.
The evidence entered into court Wednesday were statements from District Attorney prosecutors describing additional specific instances in which sheriff officials downloaded or accessed the recordings in 2016 and 2017:
- On April 14, 2016, Senior Deputy District Attorney Cynthia Nichols informed other DA officials and the sheriff’s “Special Assignments Sergeant” of a jail phone recording between inmate Hossein Nayeri and the phone number of his attorney, Sal Ciulla, according to a court declaration by Nichols. “[The Sheriff’s Department] looked into the recording and I was advised that recorded call was an inmate/jail phone call that was placed to Sal Ciulla’s cell phone,” Nichols wrote. The prosecutor did not listen to the call, but did inform the defense attorney about it and provided him a copy of the recording, she wrote.
- On January 5, 2017, a sheriff’s deputy and sheriff investigator “accessed” a jail phone call recording between the office phone number of attorney Joseph Smith and his client, Michael Saenz, according to a letter from Deputy District Attorney Chris Alex.
Both statements were entered into evidence Wednesday by defense attorney Joel Garson, with no objections from the DA’s office. The DA’s lawyers told Superior Court Judge Jonathan S. Fish the statements reflected what the prosecutors would testify to under oath if they were called to the witness stand.
In California, it is a felony for anyone to record or eavesdrop without permission on inmates’ phone calls with attorneys, doctors, or clergy.
The recording of inmate discussions with their lawyers could put criminal prosecutions in jeopardy. Elsewhere in California, improper law enforcement recording of inmates’ protected conversations has led to reduced and dismissed charges, including a reduced sentence in a murder case.
After Wednesday’s court haring, Voice of OC asked the Sheriff’s Department’s chief spokesperson if any steps were taken after the July 2015, April 2016, and January 2017 instances to examine whether the jail phones system was properly blocking the recording of attorney-client calls, and if steps were taken to examine whether there were enough safeguards to prevent recording of attorney-client calls.
The spokeswoman, Carrie Braun, didn’t have an immediate answer Wednesday evening.
It was unclear Wednesday what training or guidance, if any, the Sheriff’s Department provided employees regarding not recording or listening to inmate phone conversations with attorneys.
Also protected under the law are the phone calls of inmates who represent themselves, known as “pro per” defendants. In several instances, a Sheriff’s Department contractor recorded such calls despite a court order granting the inmate unmonitored calls.
Braun said Wednesday she would need more time to find out the procedures the Sheriff’s Department previously had in place for making sure the inmate phone system did not record these “pro per” calls.
Disclosures that sheriff officials knew of attorney-client recordings for years also raised questions about whether they informed county supervisors when seeking an extension of the sheriff’s jail phones contract with Global Tel-Link (GTL) in October 2017, which the supervisors granted.
Molly Nichelson, the county government’s spokeswoman, didn’t have an immediate answer Wednesday evening.
Braun said the Sheriff’s Department didn’t know until June 2018 about about the glitch with recording calls with numbers on do-not-call list.
“GTL notified [the Sheriff’s Department in June 2018 that due to a glitch in their system, attorney-client phone calls were recorded. These are calls in which attorney’s had proactively placed their numbers on a “do not record list,” and because of the GTL error were improperly recorded,” Braun wrote in an emailed response to questions.
“OCSD was not made aware of this until June 2018, so therefore would have been unable to share with the Board any issues at the time of the contract renewal in October 2017.”
Braun also emphasized the recordings discussed in the hearings last week and Wednesday may be separate from the recording glitch problem.
“My understanding of the calls being discussed in court today and last week is that they may not all be related to the GTL system error,” Braun wrote.
“Even today, with all our safeguards, if an attorney does not identify his number as one that should not be recorded, then there is the possibility that a recording could take place. We would have no way of knowing it is an attorney-client call unless it is listened to.”
At that time of the extension request with GTL, sheriff officials had downloaded or accessed attorney-client calls in July 2015, April 2016, and January 2017, according to the court evidence and testimony.
Braun said the current procedure, put in place around late August 2018, is: “Prior to accessing a recorded call, the phone number being called is searched through open sources in order to attempt to identify who the number belongs to. If the number is identified as belonging to an attorney, [jail phones contractor] GTL is immediately notified to place the phone number related to the recording on the private list.”
“GTL is also instructed to sequester all previous recordings related to that same number from access by the Sheriff’s Department. If an accessed recording is identified as a possible privileged communication, the user immediately stops listening to the recording and GTL is immediately notified to place the phone number related to the recording on the private list. GTL is also instructed to sequester the recording or recordings from any further access by the Sheriff’s Department,” she continued.
“A Sheriff’s Department report is written and submitted to County Counsel who in turn lodges the report with the court. It is the Sheriff Department’s understanding that the report is then made available to the court appointed special master.”
GTL officials have said a problem with a January 2015 computer upgrade caused the recording of over 30,000 protected phone calls with numbers on the “do not call” list. Sheriff officials have said they were first informed of that problem in June 2018 and that it was quickly fixed once discovered.
Much of the testimony Wednesday revolved around a January 2015 court filing by inmate Branden Shumate, who was representing himself.
Shumate wrote that while a court order granted him unmonitored phone calls in jail, he was still receiving warnings on his calls about them being recorded.
While there’s a separate attorney-to-client phone portal, “there is no such portal or separately designated option to ensure that my ability to communicate the preparations of my defense in absolute privacy and confidence are being respected,” Shumate wrote in his January 2015 court motion.
“The prerecorded menu also randomly states, ‘If you are an attorney, and you do NOT want your call monitored and recorded, please hang up and dial’ [a particular number]. This random warning/option can be heard by the caller and the call recipient and clearly implies to both that unless you are an attorney calling the alternate number, you are absolutely being monitored and recorded.”
Shumate’s January 2015 court filing was reviewed at the time by Deputy County Counsel Elizabeth Pejeau, who handled jail-related court matters on behalf of the Sheriff’s Department.
Pejeau testified Wednesday she had no recollection of following up to see if Shumate’s allegation was correct, and that she didn’t know how many other cases there were of “pro per” inmates alleging their calls were being monitored in violation of court orders.
Garson, the defense attorney, told the judge he would issue a subpoena to the County Counsel’s Office for other instances where inmates made such allegations.
The jail phone recordings issue came into public view in August, after Garson discovered calls between Waring and his prior attorney were recorded, as well as calls Waring made while he was representing himself despite a court order granting him unmonitored calls.
Waring, whose mother is former Real Housewives of Orange County star Lauri Peterson, faces attempted murder charges in connection with a 2016 shooting in Costa Mesa.
The start of Waring’s trial in the attempted murder case was pushed back Wednesday, from Jan. 8 to Feb. 19.

A couple of weeks ago Stella and I ran our second wine-tasting. This time we were trying lots of non-Champagne fizz from the sort of wine countries I usually hate, or can’t afford (New Zealand was in there twice, as were Australia and East Sussex; the whole list is at the end) and, as ever, my cover was blown. I liked at least two bottles that I would normally run away from, both in terms of the (expected) taste and the money involved. So the Lindauer Special Reserve NV, the Jacobs Creek, Chardonnay/Pinot Noir Brut Cuvee (I know! I KNOW!) and the Ridgeview may all find their way into my basket one of these days (more likely the former ones than the latter, in my current work circumstances), whereas the Miolo from Brazil will not. Even, yes even, the Asti had its place but I would only drink it with the sweetest and softest of desserts. Matching food to such a massive range of wines and flavours was not as easy as finding the saline and sharp to go with Champagne last time but Fiona Beckett’s brilliant site helped me get started and then I was off.
So, non-Champagne fizz, unless it’s actually trying to emulate the saline twang of an Epernay special, like the Jacob’s Creek Reserve does, can go from snappy dryness (Ridgeview) to sappy sweetness (Asti) so there was no way I could find food that suited everything. Instead, I used/made things that had an affinity with at least one of them. Mushrooms, for example, which I really wasn’t expecting; Fiona Beckett recommends a mushroom caviar and, on top of a blini, it was rather lovely with the Lindauer and the Cremants. Smoked fish is always a perfect match for anything dry and salty and I went for hot smoked trout, with chive and lemon zest sour cream, again on blinis. And a baked New York cheesecake was somehow not ruined by a glass of Asti.
Then there were my three favourites: Parmesan crisps, inspired by Patricia Michelson’s book Cheese; a mash-up of goat’s cheese and quince paste on crostini inspired by this, and the most brilliant, life-saving savoury-sweet nuts, based on a Dorie Greenspan recipe. If you are having/going to a party at any time over the next few months, you/your guests will love these. You’ll love them because you can make them in your sleep and your fellow party-goers/invitees will love them because they are damned amazing. I’ve made them four or five times already, changed the recipe every time and have yet to find a version I don’t like. My favourite is the basic recipe, with just sugar and salt, followed closely by the same thing with added fresh rosemary and then a version with a little cumin, cinnamon and cayenne. Try messing with the spices, in small quantities, until you find the recipe that suits you. I particularly recommend them with a glass of the Cremant d’Alsace but then, being an Alsace devotee and only-just-out-of-the-I-can’t-drink-Australian-closet, I would. Happy partying.
The best, most more-ish, pre-dinner snack in the world
Makes a big bowlful but very easily doubled.
Cupboard (or things you may already have):
sea salt, 1 teaspoon
nuts (I tend to use a mix of skinned, unsalted, unroasted peanuts, almonds and pecans), 300g
fresh aromatic herbs (e.g. rosemary or thyme), a tablespoon
ground cinnamon, 1 teaspoon
ground cumin, ½ teaspoon
cayenne pepper, ½ teaspoon
1. Preheat the oven to 150°C/130°C fan-assisted/gas 2 and line a large baking sheet with greaseproof paper/baking parchment.
2. Put the nuts into a bowl with the sugar and salt and mix well.
3. If you are using either of the options, add them now. So chop the rosemary or thyme finely and add it or mix in the spices.
4. Beat the egg white very lightly (as in a few seconds in a small bowl, just to break it up a bit) then tip it into the nuts. Mix everything together well.
5. Spread the nuts out in a single layer on the baking sheet and roast until dry/dried out (this will make sense, I promise) and golden brown.
6. Leave to cool on a baking sheet, break up into individual nuts/small pieces and watch the gannets descend.

PerformLine annouced a new product recently aimed at the online education marketing space called PerformMatch™ BPS which "is a set of compliance rules for higher education marketers to proactively begin self-regulation of their online advertising campaigns against misrepresentations." Read the release.
PerformLine CEO Alex Baydin discussed his company's new product as well as complexities in the U.S. education space relative to online marketing.
AdExchanger.com: Please share the back story here for your new product. U.S. federal government funding is at stake for online universities and the lead generation companies they hire correct?
AB: We have been working with higher education marketers for some time now helping them with verification and compliance of their own brand guidelines and guarding against general misrepresentations. Around June 2010 it was announced that the U.S. Department of Education was working to amend the regulations of the Higher Education Act of 1965 (HEA) to protect students from aggressive or misleading recruiting practices, provide better information about career college and training programs, and ensure that only eligible students or programs receive aid. It became clear that DoE was taking steps to strengthen their ability to take action against offending schools and the core of what is at stake is the Title IV Pell Grant money for the for-profit EDU sector. Some of the biggest areas of concern from the Department are: gainful employment, incentive pay, and consumer misrepresentations
Here are additional, excerpted background information:
- The Department of Education announced in September that it is on schedule to implement new regulations in the for-profit education sector dealing with gainful employment and 13 other issues to protect students and taxpayers. The regulations will go into effect July 1, 2011. See release.
Can you provide a use case of how your PerformMatch BPS (Best Practices for Schools) system works? Does it look for banned terms in the creative and the landing page, for example?
PerformMatch™ BPS employs a set of universal compliance rules based on seven rule categories that comprehensively cover every misrepresentation outlined by the Department of Education: general misrepresentations, endorsements, financial assistance terms, employablility claims, improper disclaimers, incentive offers, and urgency tags.
Higher education marketers would deploy PerformMatch™ BPS to search and monitor their traffic partners’ creative, landing pages, emails and display ads for violations or misrepresentations on a daily basis. Compliance scores are assigned to each landing page or creative, as well as each traffic source and campaign. Optimization for compliance can then begin.
PerformMatch™ BPS also allows marketers to create their own set of unique guidelines according to their brand policies to help protect their brand and stay compliant.
Does or will PerformLine verify leads? Any plans here?
PerformLine is the first company to offer “upstream” lead verification and scoring. We define “upstream” as the landing page and/or traffic path that the user followed before submitting their information on a lead form. We define “downstream” verification as lead verification once the lead data has been captured. Our data tells us that lead buyers and sellers can determine a lot about the level of compliance and intent of a lead by better understanding the “upstream” environment where a lead was captured. Companies like TargusInfo and eBureau have done a nice job offering “downstream” lead verification and scoring, but today’s lead buyer should deploy both “upstream” and “downstream” verification and scoring to understand all they can about their leads and stay compliant.
From your viewpoint, where is the momentum in digital marketing channels today for the lead gen space?
The momentum in lead gen can be found in the same channels where we are seeing momentum in online marketing in general. Independent 3rd party verification, like PerformMatch™, is a hot topic as it protects brands and lead buyers from consumer misrepresentation that has been a huge issue for direct marketers. This is especially true today in the largest lead gen categories: EDU, Insurance, Finance and Pharma. Audience targeting is creating new opportunities to target one’s lead acquisition strategy to acquire leads which have the highest propensity to convert. DSPs/AdExchanges continue to make low cost inventory available for testing for lead buyers. Lead buyers and lead generators often need this abundance in low cost inventory in order to meet their conversion metrics that can allow them to buy display media at scale.
Misrepesentation issues are definitely re-shaping the EDU sector and quite possibly all of the Lead Gen industry this year, but I believe it will make marketers and those that serve them better at self-regulation, and in the process offer the opportunity for real innovation in the space.

IFC Solutions, a premier manufacturer of food coloring and specialty ingredients with contract manufacturing services, recently approached Amplify in need of a complete website redesign. Their existing site architecture was complex after years of ad-hoc additions and the design did not effectively convey their brand or their message. The full scope and quality of IFC’s services were not being communicated with their existing site, which was potentially leading to lost opportunities.
“IFC Solutions was a new client for us, but they had a specific vision and a very good understanding of the message they wanted to convey,” said Joe DeMicco, Founder & CEO of Amplify. “They hired us to bring this vision to life, to help them engage with their ideal audience and convert more website visitors into leads. In order to do this, we had to sit down and review their buyer personas.”
IFC Solution’s buyer personas were fictional representations of their ideal buyers, providing a roadmap of how to best communicate with them. This, in addition to close collaboration with IFC, offered a deeper understanding of their ideal buyers’ motivations and how creative web design and messaging can speak to these motivations.
“In the end, IFC Solutions ended up with a beautiful website. It looked great, it was easy to use, but it also spoke directly to their ideal audience. Their complex navigation was greatly simplified while covering the full breadth of their services, and the entire site is set up to facilitate higher conversion rates, helping IFC convert more website visitors into paying customers.”

Growing up graphic novels (we called them comic books) were a big part of my life. They were a portal into a world where the downtrodden and powerless became, through a strange twist of fate, heroes and heroines who fought for truth and justice. But comic books need not only be the dominion of heroes and heroines. Ordinary people can also experience great adventures. I encourage the viewer to conjure their own stories from each of these frames.

Tips for Improving Communication Skills
Communication is needed from the first day of life. Developing lifelong communication skills is useful both in the professional field and in everyday life. But how? There are countless courses that offer you improved public speaking skills, but what about simple intercommunication, which is no less important? Each of us is different, with one easily and naturally interacting, while for the other it might be hard to even say hello. You can improve your communication skills by following some simple tips that will allow you to be more open and possibly even successful in your work environment!
You may be worried or the conversation might otherwise be uncomfortable for you, but it can be hidden by controlling your gestures and movements, and your position towards the other person. There is no room for lies in body language, because these signals are transmitted unknowingly to others. By being aware of the manifestations of your body, you can control the situation.
Remember to make eye contact when speaking or listening!
There is no need for continuous eye contact, however, looking into the partner’s eyes will indicate your interest and make the partner more interested in what you have to say. When looking into eyes, try to focus on one eye, then the other. This will create a spark in your eyes and make it less difficult to maintain longer eye contact.
Hand gestures are used to make the conversation more relaxed. The larger the audience, the wider the gestures should be. Including small gestures in the conversation will occupy your hands so that they don’t have to be crossed or in pockets, and will draw the attention.
Speech and content
Make sure your speaking speed is not too fast!
Have you noticed when worried, a person speaks much faster than in other situations? If you are worried about the conversation, take a breath and slow down the speech slightly. This will allow you to regain control of your body and feel calmer. Even if you are not worried but talk fast, your listeners may not be able to keep track of the information and lose interest.
Structures the content!
If what you say is chaotically structured, even the most attentive listener will quickly lose interest. One of the ways to present your thoughts in an orderly manner is to start and conclude with the main factors. Starting with the most important, you will attract attention. Conversely, by concluding with the main point, you will draw the interlocutor’s memory of what has just been discussed.
Simple, but worth remembering
Listen to your interlocutor!
Sometimes it is valuable to listen more than you speak. Listening and hearing the opinions and thoughts of those around you will allow you to engage in conversation more effectively. In addition, your interlocutor will certainly notice that you are listening, and that can help you to gain confidence and possibly learn more, which will strengthen your relationship and enhance communication skills.
Listening to someone who speaks is to pay attention to him and his content. Likewise, not interrupting will certainly put you in a good light as polite and respectful. It is impossible to gain respect and attention from those around you if you are not showing it yourself. So don’t interrupt others and they won’t interrupt you!
Get to know your audience or the people you need to meet!
Alexander Graham Bell said, “Preparation is the key to success.” Can’t disagree with him! You will feel more confident in any life situation if you are as well prepared as possible, but it’s especially important in the work environment. If it’s a performance or meeting someone for the first time, take the time to find out who these people are. When speaking to an audience, it’s important to at least know what industry or profession you are talking to. This will make your message more relevant and more engaging. Also, when it comes to meeting new clients or partners, it is advisable to prepare beforehand. It will lessen your anxiety and promote more effective contact!
There are many theoretical pieces of advice that can help you improve your communication skills, but it will be most valuable to just practice communication! Remember that your interlocutors and audience are just people, so treat them as yourself and do not underestimate any opportunity to communicate and build quality communication with others! | <urn:uuid:e85b1987-2ca4-4a24-9fa6-2c8622b36ab6> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://www.efectio.com/2020/08/18/tips-for-improving-communication-skills/ | 2020-09-30T15:53:01Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600402127075.68/warc/CC-MAIN-20200930141310-20200930171310-00209.warc.gz | en | 0.945686 | 886 |

Help brands drive meaningful engagement through the calendar
Eventable was started when two marketers decided they were fed up with “spray and pray” campaigns. They set out to create a marketing channel that ensures a customized & engaging experience for consumers, while respecting their time.
Since then, Eventable has innovated on the 2nd most used consumer application: calendars. Eventable’s patented SmartEventsTM software has rebuilt calendar technologies from the ground up, bringing functionality into the calendar that was never possible before.
Eventable's platform has helped thousands of businesses tap into the calendar as a marketing channel. By reaching customers through the calendars they're checking a dozen times every day, brands can drive true engagement and bolster customer retention.
In April 2018, Eventable was acquired by Rockerbox. Together, we're making calendar marketing accessible to more businesses around the world. Our combined products and teams are building a more comprehensive marketing suite to help brands effectively communicate with their audiences.

Intelerad adds Clario to support efficient radiologist workflows
Intelerad Medical Systems is acquiring Clario Medical with intentions of offering providers interoperable medical diagnostic solutions.
The companies announced the acquisition on Sunday, in advance of the annual meeting of the Radiological Society of North America in Chicago. Terms of the deal were not disclosed.
Intelerad develops enterprise workflow solutions, while Clario is a “zero footprint” worklist company. Plans are for development of a combined product expected to augment Intelerad’s enterprise imaging solutions with Clario’s zero footprint worklist, in an effort to better meet the needs of radiology practices and health systems.
“Our vision is to free up health systems and radiology practices from the limitations of legacy imaging IT systems, and provide modern, secure and highly scalable cloud-based solutions,” says François Laflamme, chairman of the board of Intelerad, “We are excited about the prospect of rapidly expanding our zero footprint capabilities towards a fully cloud-based radiology workstation with the Clario solutions. For the providers that are looking for a modular approach, we will continue to evolve and offer Clario’s universal worklist as a vendor-neutral platform.”
“We have been working with both companies as a radiology group client as well as a reseller partner for multiple years,” says Worth Saunders, CEO of Greensboro Radiology and CEO of Canopy Partners. “The combination of Intelerad’s workflow and diagnostic solutions with Clario’s worklist has allowed us and our clients to manage workflow more efficiently and intelligently.”
Intelerad offers radiological solutions for image viewing and storage intended to increase productivity and streamline workflow by overcoming technical barriers in distributed and complex environments. | <urn:uuid:2fa50a6c-626e-45fc-8f43-fb7f3854a5b5> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://www.healthdatamanagement.com/news/intelerad-adds-clario-to-support-efficient-workflow-for-radiologists | 2020-09-30T14:41:16Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600402127075.68/warc/CC-MAIN-20200930141310-20200930171310-00209.warc.gz | en | 0.924715 | 377 |

Analysis of N-nitrosodiethylamine by ion chromatography coupled with UV photolysis pretreatment
Nitrosamines such as N-nitrosodiethylamine (NDEA) are commonly detected by spectrophotometry after photolysis and Griess reaction (PG) in food industries for lower cost. Results of this research indicate that NDEA decays rapidly under UV irradiation, and concentrations of the generated NO2- and NO3- ions vary with photolysis conditions. Thus, the measurement of the PG method may be inconsistent because it is based on the amount of photoproduced NO2-. In addition, more errors may be present in the PG method since NO3- cannot be measured colorimetrically using Griess reagent. In this work, the sum of the concentrations of photoproduced NO2- and NO3- was found to be equivalent to the initial NDEA before photolysis, and a photolysis-ion chromatography method was validated, which may serve as a feasible and accurate method to determine nitrosamines.

No other part of a dealership can compare to the service department in terms of moving parts. I mean that both figuratively and literally. For as many nuts, bolts, pistons, panels, plugs, and springs your service team handles, there’s an almost equal amount of rules and regulations to follow.
Make sure you know the following regulations to keep your team safe and operating on the right side of the law:
- The Clean Air Act reduces pollution by regulating air emissions. Under the Act, dealerships are forbidden from messing with devices, such as catalytic converters, air pumps, and positive crankcase ventilation systems, that limit emissions.
- The Clean Water Act regulates how your dealership can store and dispose of wastewater and oil, in order to reduce contamination of nearby water sources.
- The Department of Transportation requires that your employees are properly trained in hazardous materials handling procedures. The DOT broadly defines hazardous materials as those that “could potentially harm the public and the environment.” Examples include flammable, poisonous, and radioactive substances.
- The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration’s tampering rules prohibit dealerships from tampering with any pre-installed safety equipment in used vehicles.
- The NHTSA also enforces tire rules that require dealerships to properly deal with and report information about defective and recalled tires.
- The Occupational Safety and Health Administration’s asbestos standards protect workers from asbestos exposure by limiting the equipment dealers are allowed to use during the cleaning of certain devices that may contain asbestos.
- OSHA Hazard Communication encompasses the many labels, data sheets, disclosures, training procedures, and other forms of communication that inform workers at your dealership about the presence of hazardous chemicals and how to safely handle them.
- OSHA’s lockout/tagout procedures explain how employees should safely shut off or isolate devices that otherwise have the potential to release hazardous energy.
- OSHA’s standards for workplace health and safety protect your employees’ well-being in all forms. These laws regulate everything from personal protective equipment use to accident reporting to proper workplace temperature—and much more.
Next: Customer-Facing Employees
In the next installment in this series, we’ll take off the gloves (again, literally and figuratively) to explore what rules your customer-facing employees need to know.
But you don’t have to wait until then to overhaul your workforce compliance program. See how easy it is to manage workforce compliance initiatives across your dealership using our automated compliance platform.
Welcome to our series on the numerous federal rules and regulations that impact automotive dealerships. In this and upcoming articles, we’ll be taking a look at the roles employees at each department play in keeping your dealership compliant.

Residents wait for Covid-19 test kits in the hard-hit area of Hong Kong’s Tsz Wan Shan. Photo: SCMP/Winson Wong
Even as strict social distancing measures came into place in Hong Kong on Wednesday, the city still recorded 118 new Covid-19 cases, the eighth day in a row in which the city was hit with more than 100 new infections. The total number of coronavirus cases has risen beyond 3,000.
Among the fresh cases, 113 were locally transmitted, including 46 with unknown origin.
Dr Chuang Shuk-kwan, head of the communicable disease branch under the Centre for Health Protection, said about 80 people tested preliminary positive.
Dr Sara Ho Yuen-ha, a chief manager from the Hospital Authority, said starting from Thursday, a hotline service would be launched for patients confirmed with Covid-19 and who were waiting for hospital admission.
Ho said the service was aimed at allowing staff to better understand patients’ conditions while they were in the queue, and provide health information to those who had been infected.
Tightened social-distancing measures, including a complete ban on restaurant dining and wider mask-wearing rules covering outdoor areas, also took effect on Wednesday.
A 76-year-old woman who died in the morning became the latest coronavirus-related fatality. She was the fifth person in the city to die under such circumstances since Monday.
The city’s infection numbers stood at 3,002, with 24 related deaths.
The elderly woman was among a cluster of seven patients infected with the virus in a medical ward at Queen Elizabeth Hospital in Yau Ma Tei.
The hospital said she had been admitted to the ward on June 30 after she suffered from shortness of breath caused by heart failure.
She was later sent to an isolation ward after another patient in the ward was confirmed to have the virus. The woman tested positive on July 17, her condition deteriorated last Friday and she died at 8.31am. | <urn:uuid:ea97ef0f-e9e4-4844-9e49-533863f02596> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://www.scmp.com/yp/discover/news/hong-kong/article/3095183/covid-19-cases-hong-kong-rise-over-3000-new-social | 2020-09-30T15:55:38Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600402127075.68/warc/CC-MAIN-20200930141310-20200930171310-00209.warc.gz | en | 0.982669 | 419 |
“Joy, confidence, and empowerment… that’s what Shelter KC means to me,” Tina says.
When she arrived at our door, Tina was lacking in all three of these areas. That was largely due to a traumatic experience in her youth that led her to a destructive drug addiction. “I was molested growing up and that kind of messed with me,” she says. “I became isolated and real quiet. I never talked about it and had a really rough time.”
When Tina reached her teens, she turned to drugs to try to numb the pain in her life. That started an addiction that would last for years. Even after she became a mother, Tina continued her drug use and even ratcheted up to harder drugs. “I started methamphetamines,” she says. “That’s when things went downhill for me really, really bad.”
The turning point for Tina came later in life, when she became a grandmother. She knew in her heart she had to make a change for the sake of her family. So, with the help of her daughter, she began calling around, searching for anyone who could offer hope. At her wits’ end, she dialed the last phone number on her list — the number for Shelter KC.
“I am very blessed to be at Shelter KC,” Tina says. “I have been given so many tools to help me grow. The most important one is God. I got closer to God and learned to surrender myself to Him.”
Tina has also been blessed by our counselors, who have been instrumental in helping her deal with her past and overcome her addiction. “My mentors at the shelter have helped me turn my life around,” she says. “There is a lot of love and caring.”
Now, full of joy and renewed confidence, Tina looks forward to a second chance at life and spending time with her granddaughters. She’s forever grateful for friends like you who’ve helped make it possible.

Returning for Holiday 2012 is the Vans OTW Bedford, this time appearing in two brand new makeups.
The Bedford returns to the Vans OTW Collection with a duo of colorways. One of the original silhouettes from OTW, the mid-top Bedford is reintroduced in a black wool knit iteration alongside an additional grey/gunmetal offering clad in leather and pig suede. Tonal branding, embossed leather tongue labeling and metal eyelets finish off this two pack for release just in time for the holidays. The Vans OTW Bedford in wool knit black and grey/gunmetal arrive at Vans retail locations and key OTW accounts in early December. | <urn:uuid:7325b946-3451-471c-ac58-d7db664db394> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://www.sneakerfiles.com/vans-otw-bedford-holiday-2012/ | 2020-09-30T16:41:09Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600402127075.68/warc/CC-MAIN-20200930141310-20200930171310-00209.warc.gz | en | 0.883555 | 139 |
With the 2013 edition of the Carling Black Label Cup just around the corner, Soccer-Laduma takes a closer look at the players you can vote for to represent your team in the competition.
Everyday leading up to the big game on 27 July, Soccer-Laduma will be profiling one Orlando Pirates player and one Kaizer Chiefs player daily, with career backgrounds on display so you can make your voting choice.
Soccer-Laduma will also be running user polls to gauge the popularity of the players profiled.
Orlando Pirates Profile:
Name: Patrick Phungwayo
Team: Orlando Pirates
CBL last Year: N/A
2012/2013 PSL Stats: Played 18, Scored 0
Patrick Phungwayo will be looking for his first appearance in the Carling Black Label Cup against Kaizer Chiefs on July 27. The left-back did fairly well in his first season with Orlando Pirates, registering 18 league starts under his name.
Pirates’ fans seem to have been pleased with the player’s work rate, in addition to his defensive qualities, Phungwayo has the ability go past defenders down the left wing.
He is blessed with pace and skill that makes him unstoppable on the wing when on form. Phungwayo is currently on the bench, with Thabo Matlaba ahead of him in the number of votes accumulated in the Carling Black Label Cup so far. But with the voting lines still open there is still a chance for the player’s inclusion in the team. | <urn:uuid:d2da17b1-e9f7-4ab3-844b-ff21a1fb58dd> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://www.soccerladuma.co.za/news/articles/local/categories/south-africa/carling-black-label-player-profile-20/134233 | 2020-09-30T16:05:03Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600402127075.68/warc/CC-MAIN-20200930141310-20200930171310-00209.warc.gz | en | 0.95547 | 321 |

Hey guys, where do you get your leather for ammo pouches? There are no local sources for me...
My favorite source is a cheap pair of all-leather work gloves from a hardware store. I open them up along the side seams, lay them out and cut. You can get several good pouches that way. Or old boots, old belts, things like that. I would think that a heavy canvas material would work if you couldn't find leather.
have you asked the shoe repair store?
I use thin belts, if you live in Germany I can sell you some
Thanks for the responses guys, Will's post about work gloves triggered an "Oh Yea!" in my head...I went to Harbor Freight and found a leather welder's apron on sale for ten dollars. So now I should be good on leather for a while!
When not working with metal, I'm working with leather (armor, sheaths, holsters, tac and saddle). My main supplier is "Tandy Leather". They got a website and in the US stores everywhere. Another is, "Hobby Lobby", you can get cheap one pound bags of scrap.
Harbor Freight also has Carpet Cutter blades ($2 for 2) which interestingly enough are the same size(45mm) used in a Fiskars rotary cutter ($5 for ONE blade!) Don't forget to also keep an eye out for roadside, abandoned sofas. I found a LEATHER one and couldn't believe my good fortune. The leather was kinda thin, but I glued a folded sheet and pressed it together in a vise. I've test fired a few glued-together pouches...so far they're holding.

Been There. Done That. Got This. [/URL][/IMG]
That was just a love seat, I have almost that much from another chair.
THAT IS SO F***ing SWEEEEET! You scored my friend! Congratulations!!
That's...*snif*...MAGNIFICENT! *breaks down and cries*
Seriously cool score, dude!
What a score! Like everyone else I wish I would run into something like that, lol.
Well i used an old welding glove (enough for my first few tries)
They are verry soft... so maybe not suitable for strongest bands
I'm a shoe salesman so I tend to score some whenever we get a defective shoe and the manufacturer says we can cut them up and throw them out, or when things get old to the point they've been written off and I can get them for cheap. Recently picked up a pair of size 47 Ecco boots for $19.00 with thick sturdy leather.
You might be able to find a shoe store with some old as sin shoes they'd let go for a song
http://www.chichesterinc.com/ is very good if you're in the US, and is especially good if you live close enough to Niagara Falls to visit their store.
taking a look into the old-fashioned yellow pages of your region often reveals great sources.
maybe there is a online version with the possibility to type "leather" into a search function too.
i found stores that i didn't see before while passing by.
Gives me some ideas for leather sources! I've been needing to go to the local Tandy Leather store. I think this store has a "free scrap bin". If not, I might ask them if I can do a little "dumpster diving" behind their store. | <urn:uuid:db836269-da1b-4a4e-b5fc-6275ec47c6aa> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://www.theslingshotforum.com/threads/leather-source.29923/ | 2020-09-30T14:48:58Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600402127075.68/warc/CC-MAIN-20200930141310-20200930171310-00209.warc.gz | en | 0.955109 | 795 |
