1.‘The State of Young Child in India’ report,:
Vice President Venkaiah Naidu released ‘The State of Young Child in India’ report, a comprehensive account of the challenges related to early child development in India.
- The report has been prepared by Mobile Creches a policy advocacy organization that works with the underprivileged children across India.
- Quoting from the report, the Vice President said that of the 159 million children aged below 6 years in India, 21 percent are undernourished, 36 percent are underweight and 38 percent do not receive full immunization.
- The report also pointed to the insurmountable evidence of the huge returns on investment in Early Childhood Development (ECD) at the individual, household, and country levels.
- Based on ranking and values on the Young Child Outcome Index (YCOI), the report named Kerala, Goa, Tripura, and Tamil Nadu to be among the top performers, while eight states– Assam, Meghalaya, Rajasthan, Chhattisgarh, Madhya Pradesh, Jharkhand, Uttar Pradesh, and Bihar– with scores below the national average lagged behind.
2.“Act of God” :
This week, attributing the shortfall in GST collections to disruptions due to Covid-19, Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman said the economy is facing an Act-of-God-like situation.
- The law of contracts is built around a fundamental norm that the parties must perform the contract.
- However, the law carves out exceptions when the performance of the contract becomes impossible to the parties.
- A force majeure clause (FMC) is one such exception that releases the party of its obligations to an extent when events beyond their control take place and leave them unable to perform their part of the contract. FMC is a clause that is present in most commercial contracts and is a carefully drafted legal arrangement in the event of a crisis.
- Generally, an “Act of God” is understood to include only natural unforeseen circumstances, whereas force majeure is wider in its ambit and includes both naturally occurring events and events that occur due to human intervention. However, both concepts elicit the same consequences in law.
- The Indian Contract Act, 1872 provides that a contract becomes void if it becomes impossible due to an event after the contract was signed that the party could not prevent.
- The International Chamber of Commerce has developed a Model Code on the force majeure clause reflecting current international practice.

- The Judge, while recusing himself from the case referred the matter to the Chief Justice for listing.
- Judicial disqualification, referred to as recusal, is the act of abstaining from participation in an official action such as a legal proceeding due to a conflict of interest of the presiding court official or administrative officer.
- Motions to recuse or disqualify judges and other adjudicators have been made for all sorts of reasons.
- Most commonly such motions are predicated upon a claim that the judge is biased in favor of one party, or against another, or that a reasonable objective observer would think he might be.
- But such motions are also made on many other grounds, including the challenged judge’s:
- Interest in the subject matter, or relationship with someone who is interested in it.
- Background or experience, such as the judge’s prior work as a lawyer.
- Personal knowledge about the parties or the facts of the case.
- Ex parte communications with lawyers or non-lawyers.
- Rulings, comments or conduct.
There are no definite rules on recusals by Judges.
- Justice J. Chelameswar in his opinion in Supreme Court Advocates-on-Record Association v. Union of India (2015) held that “Where a judge has a pecuniary interest, no further inquiry as to whether there was a ‘real danger’ or ‘reasonable suspicion’ of bias is required to be undertaken”.
- Besides, In taking the oath of office, judges, both of the Supreme Court and of the high courts, promise to perform their duties, to deliver justice, “without fear or favor, affection or ill-will”.
5.5th BRICS Culture Ministers’ Meeting :
The 5th BRICS Culture Ministers’ Meeting was held through video conference under the Chairpersonship of the Russian Federation.

6.Draft Data Empowerment and Protection Architecture (DEPA):
The NITI Aayog has released draft Data Empowerment and Protection Architecture (DEPA) which aims to promote greater user control on data sharing.
- DEPA will be empowering individuals with control over their personal data, by operationalizing a regulatory, institutional, and technology design for secure data sharing.
- DEPA is designed as an evolvable and agile framework for good data governance.
- DEPA empowers people to seamlessly and securely access their data and share it with third-party institutions.
- The consent given under DEPA will be free, informed, specific, clear, and revocable.
- Consent Managers: DEPA’s Institutional Architecture will involve the creation of new market players known as User Consent Managers.
- These will ensure that individuals can provide consent as per an innovative digital standard for every data shared.
- These Consent Managers will also work to protect data rights.
- Reserve Bank of India (RBI) issued a Master Directive creating Consent Managers in the financial sector to be known as Account Aggregators (AAs). A non-profit collective or alliance of these players is created called the DigiSahamati Foundation.
- Open APIs: Open Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) enable the seamless and encrypted flow of data between data providers and data users through a consent manager.
- Implementation: RBI, SEBI, IRDAI, PFRDA, and the Ministry of Finance will implement this model.
- This regulatory foundation is also expected to evolve with time (eg. with the forthcoming Data Protection Authority envisaged under Personal Data Protection Bill, 2019).
- Using DEPA, individuals and Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) can use their digital footprints to access not just affordable loans, but also insurance, savings, and better financial management products.
- The framework is expected to become functional for the financial sector starting fall 2020.
- It will help in greater financial inclusion and economic growth.
- Flow-based lending: If portability and control of data could allow an MSME owner to digitally share proof of the business’ regular tax (GST) payments or receivables invoices easily, a bank could design and offer working capital loans based on demonstrated ability to repay (known as flow based lending) rather than only offering bank loans backed by assets or collateral.
- DEPA is also being launched in the telecom sector following a Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI) consultation report on privacy released in July 2018.
- Government Departments: The first major government department to become a Government Information Provider will be the Goods and Services Tax (GST).
- In future, departments with data on individuals and MSMEs could adopt the specifications to improve the ease of doing business or create greater data portability of individual education, jobs, or transaction data.
- National Health Authority which has been tasked with implementing the National Digital Health Mission, is piloting the DEPA architecture for healthcare data.
- Skilling: The Ministry of Skill Development and Entrepreneurship is encouraging adoption of a digital skill credential that could be used to address low data portability in employment by sharing verified information on work experience or educational training.
7.Revised Guidelines for Parole and Furlough: MHA:
The Union Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) has revised the Model Prison Manual, 2016 guidelines related to parole and furlough.
- The MHA has asked states to not release prisoners, on parole and furlough, who are considered a threat to the security of the state or to individuals.
- Imprisonment besides being a mode of punishment also aims at protecting the society from criminal activities, therefore release on parole is not an absolute right but a concession.
- A balance is, therefore, considered essential between ensuring the rights of inmates and protecting society from further harm.
- The parole rules of states to be reviewed about the benefits and detriments of such parole.
- Parole and furlough may not be granted as a matter of routine and may be decided by a committee of officers and behavioral experts, especially for inmates sentenced for sexual offenses and serious crimes such as murder, child abduction, violence, etc.
- Inclusion of an expert psychologist/ criminologist/correctional administration expert as a member of the sentence review board and in the committee which decides grant of parole and furlough to inmates and obtains their opinion before such temporary release.
- In the wake of the Covid-19 pandemic, states are under pressure to release prisoners in order to avoid overcrowding in prisons. Earlier, the Supreme Court of India has also passed orders on measures taken to decongest prisons, correction homes, and detention centers due to the Covid-19 outbreak.
- Prison is a state subject and all states have their own rules for parole, furlough, remission, and premature release based on good conduct of the prisoners.
- The MHA guidelines came in the backdrop of reports of several prisoners being released on parole and furlough and some of them committing crimes out of jail.
Parole and Furlough
- It is a system of releasing a prisoner with the suspension of the sentence. The release is conditional, usually subject to behavior, and requires periodic reporting to the authorities for a set period of time.
- Parole is not a right and is given to a prisoner for a specific reason, such as a death in the family or a wedding of a blood relative.
- It may be denied to a prisoner even when he makes out a sufficient case, if the competent authority is satisfied that releasing the convict would not be in the interest of society.
- It is similar to parole, but with some significant differences. It is given in cases of long-term imprisonment. The period of furlough granted to a prisoner is treated as remission of his sentence.
- Unlike parole, furlough is seen as a matter of right for a prisoner, to be granted periodically irrespective of any reason, and merely to enable the prisoner to retain family and social ties, and to counter the ill-effects of prolonged time spent in prison.
Greece rejects NATO mediation.
- It says ‘de-escalation’ only after Turkey withdraws vessels from Greek waters.
- Over recent weeks, tensions have been rising in the waters of the Eastern Mediterranean, prompted by what seems like a simple rivalry over energy resources.
- Turkey has pursued an aggressive gas exploration effort, its research vessel heavily protected by warships of the Turkish Navy.
- There have been encounters with rival Greek vessels and a third Nato country, France, has become involved, siding with the Greeks.
- These tensions also highlight another shift in the region – the decline of US power.
- Tensions are mounting to the breaking point between Turkey and Greece over Turkey’s drilling work near the Mediterranean island of Cyprus, which like Greece is an EU member country.
- Turkey doesn’t recognize the divided island of Cyprus as a state and claims 44 percent of Cyprus’ exclusive economic zone as its own.
- Cyprus was split along ethnic lines in 1974 when Turkey invaded in the wake of a coup by supporters of union with Greece.
North Atlantic Treaty Organization:
- It is an intergovernmental military alliance.
- Established by the Washington treaty.
- Treaty that was signed on 4 April 1949.
- Headquarters — Brussels, Belgium.
- Headquarters of Allied Command Operations — Mons, Belgium.
Other important current affairs:
1. The Rajya Sabha Secretariat is considering changing the rules governing the Departmentally-Related Standing Committees’ (DRSC) tenure to make it to two years from the present one year so that the panels have enough time to work on the subjects selected by them.
- Reason for Extension: The tenure of all the DRSCs of Parliament is ending on 11th September 2020 and they can’t hold deliberations till new panels are formed.
- A significant amount of the tenure of the committees was lost due to the Covid-19 pandemic.
- Many of the panels have not been able to complete reports on the subjects they were working on. For example, the Information Technology panel could not complete deliberations on “Safeguarding citizens’ rights and prevention of misuse of social/online news media platforms including special emphasis on women security in the digital space”, for which it summoned Facebook recently.
2.Priority Sector Lending (PSL) guidelines:
- The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) released revised Priority Sector Lending (PSL) guidelines, which align with emerging national priorities and also bring a sharper focus on inclusive development.
- The PSL guidelines were last reviewed for commercial banks in April 2015 and for Urban Co-operative Banks (UCBs) in May 2018.
- Revised Guidelines:
- Fresh Categories: Bank finance to start-ups up to Rs. 50 crore, loans to farmers for installation of solar power plants for solarisation of grid-connected agriculture pumps and loans for setting up Compressed BioGas plants have been included as fresh categories eligible for finance under the priority sector.
- Farmers’ Related: Higher credit limit has been specified for Farmers Producers Organisations (FPOs) undertaking farming with assured marketing of their produce at a predetermined price.

- Bank loans up to a limit of Rs. 30 crore to borrowers for purposes like solar-based and biomass-based power generators, windmills, non-conventional energy-based public utilities, etc. For individual households, the loan limit will be Rs. 10 lakh per borrower.
- Bank loans up to a limit of Rs.10 crore per borrower for building healthcare facilities including under ‘Ayushman Bharat’ in Tier II to Tier VI centers have been allowed.
- Addresses Disparity: It seeks to address the issues concerning regional disparities in the flow of priority sector credit at the district level which includes:
- Ranking districts on the basis of per capita credit flow to the priority sector.
- Building an incentive framework for districts with a comparatively low flow of credit and a dis-incentive framework for districts with a comparatively high flow of priority sector credit.
- Higher weightage has been assigned to priority sector credit in ‘identified districts’ where priority sector credit flow is comparatively low.
3. The Ministry of Railways has proposed to decriminalize begging on trains or railway premises and compound the offense of smoking by levying spot fine and dropping all charges/action against the person involved.
- These changes are part of an exercise to decriminalize/rationalize penalties under the provisions of the Railway Act, 1989.
- On Begging:
- Current Provision: Section 144 (2) of the Act holds that if any person begs in any railway carriage or upon a railway station, s/he shall be liable for punishment of either imprisonment for a term that may extend to one year, or with a fine that may extend to Rs. 2,000, or with both.
- Proposed Amendment: Now the proposal is to amend the Section by stating that “No person shall be permitted to begin any railway carriage or upon any part of the Railway”.
In 2018, Delhi High Court quashed a similar law that made begging in the national capital a punishable offence and held that law does not make any distinction between types of begging: voluntary or involuntary.
- The law violated Article 14 (Equality before Law) and Article 21 (Right to Life and Personal Liberty) of the Constitution.
- The Court held that the State cannot fail to do its duty to provide a decent life to its citizens and add insult to injury by arresting, detaining and, if necessary, imprisoning persons who beg in search for essentials of bare survival.
- It noted that the city governments can bring in alternative legislation to curb any racket of forced begging after undertaking an empirical examination on the sociological and economic aspects of the matter.
- On Smoking:
- Current Provision: Section 167 of the Act holds that no person in any compartment of a train shall if objected to by any other passenger, smoke therein. Irrespective of any objections raised, the railway administration may prohibit smoking in any train or part of a train. Whosoever contravenes these provisions shall be punishable with a fine that may extend to Rs.100.
- Proposed Amendment: If the person liable to pay the fine is willing to pay it immediately, the officer authorized may compound the offense by charging the maximum fine which will be paid to the railway administration. Provided that, the offender shall be discharged and no further proceeding shall be taken against him/her in respect of such offense.
4. Iran has granted IAEA inspectors access to one of two sites where undeclared nuclear activity may have taken place in the early 2000s.
- Iran signed the nuclear deal in 2015 with the United States, Germany, France, Britain, China, and Russia.
- Known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action, or JCPOA, it allows Iran only to keep a stockpile of 202.8 kilograms (447 pounds).
- However, as per IAEA reports, Iran continues to increase its stockpile of enriched uranium in violation of limitations set in the deal.
- The suspected work on a uranium metal disk, which could be used as a nuclear weapon component, and on neutrons—which are used to trigger a nuclear implosion—point to Iranian work on a neutron initiator for a nuclear weapons test or nuclear weapons device.
- Iran’s stockpile of enriched uranium has grown by around 50% since February to 1,572 kilograms. That puts Iran’s stockpile of the nuclear fuel far above the limit of 202.8 kilograms stipulated in the 2015 nuclear accord.
- With 1,000 kilograms of low-enriched uranium, Iran would likely have enough material to fuel a single bomb once the material is further enriched, a process some experts believe could take as little as three months.
5. The 11th edition of exercise INDRA NAVY, a biennial bilateral maritime exercise between the Indian Navy and Russian Navy is scheduled in the Bay of Bengal from 04 to 05 September 2020.
- Initiated in 2003, Ex INDRA NAVY epitomizes the long-term strategic relationship between the Navies of India and Russia.

...You Won’t Like Them When They Are Angry.
I’m convinced. The Weather Gods decided to screw with me today. I awoke to a hot, humid, rainy morning. Not too conducive to power walking.
Not a problem. I spent the morning with one of the dogs at the vet for some allergy meds. “I’ll walk after the vet visit.” Or so I thought.
While at the vet the sun teased me, shinning ever so brightly. I hurried home, suited up and stepped outside. The downpour commenced.
So I kept myself busy with cleaning, hanging the new shower curtain, doing laundry – making sure to go up and down the stairs as many times as possible. I have so much pent-up energy that I don’t know what to do with myself.
I’m waiting for 6:00 pm to roll around. As I keep an eye on the weather, it’s clear I’ve lost the favor of the Weather Gods. It’s now 91 degrees out – 99 with the humidity – and I see black clouds rolling in from the west. Possibility of a thunderstorm at 6:00 pm – 70%. Sigh.
Saturday’s forecast is worse.

It has been a helluva year for Kid Ink. And the Cali native is making things more..hellavu for himself by rolling out his sophomore effort while tunes from his debut is still popular amongst listeners across the country.
The tatted-up star has officially released “Body Language,” the new single from his RCA follow-up to this year’s My Own Lane. Keeping it line with his successful track record, the breezy record is aimed at ladies but still remains credible enough for the fellas to catch the vibe. It’s also backed by the golden octaves of both Usher and Tinashe, so its appeal is doubled by the name recognition alone.
In a recent interview with MTV, the Inkster discusses his decision to drop “Body Language” on an anniversary date that’s significant to him. “Last year, we dropped ‘Show Me’ the day after Labor Day Weekend,” he said. “So I found it a great occasion to keep things rolling and kick off my next wave.”
“We had an amazing ride following the success of ‘Show Me,’ as well as the follow-up ‘Main Chick’ — both records were with DJ Mustard and Chris Brown,” Inks manager, Ill Will, added. “I am super excited about this new single, because it will show that Ink is a true hit-maker and will continue to be a part of hit records regardless who the supporting cast is.”
Having a big star like Usher would generally take some finagling, but the veteran vocalist revealed to Billboard that his next album has been iced indefinitely and he just wants to kick it with people with famous faces.
The album isn’t scheduled anymore. I’ve basically taken it back. I’m taking my time with it,” he tells Billboard. “At the end of the day, all of this is just about having fun. You get in the studio [and] go with how you feel.” “It’s not about a specific topic or specific period of my life. I work on 40-50 songs in making an album,” he says of UR, his eighth studio album. “I haven’t finished the album enough to tell you what I’m talking about.”
Take a listen to Kid Ink’s “Body Language” and let us know how you think it turned out.

This report summarizes the PSC activities of the Australian Maritime Safety Authority (AMSA) and reports on the performance of commercial shipping companies, flag States and Classification Societies for the 2018 calendar year.
The PSC inspection results for 2018 indicated a slight increase in the detention rate of vessels to 5.5 per cent. Despite a similar number of detentions in 2017, 2018 had a significantly lower rate of deficiencies with an average of 1.8 deficiencies per inspection. The small variance in the detention rate and decrease in deficiencies per inspection emphasizes the benefit in maintaining a consistent and rigorous PSC inspection regime.
Ships and operators with a record of poor performance can be banned from entering or using Australian ports under section 246 of the Navigation Act 20121. In 2018, AMSA banned three ships for periods ranging from 3 to 12 months. Two of these bans involved significant breaches of the Maritime Labour Convention, 2006 (MLC).
This report has a section dedicated to MLC on the basis this is reported separately to the International Labour Organization (ILO) as this Convention was adopted under the auspices of that body. The PSC processes used for inspections in accordance with the MLC, and expectations with regard to compliance, are well established with the MLC having been in effect since 13 August 2013. This is demonstrated by the ongoing reduction in the total number of MLC deficiencies and deficiencies per inspection since 2014.
2018 summary of PSC activity:
the calendar year there were:
– 29,094 ship arrivals by 5900 foreign-flagged ships
– 2922 PSC inspections
– 161 ship detentions.
- Bulk carriers accounted for 49.3 per cent of ship arrivals and 54.3 per cent of PSC inspections.
- PSC inspections were carried out at 51 Australian ports.
- The average gross tonnage per visit was 51,808 GT compared to 51,612 GT in 2017.
- The average age of vessels in 2018 was 10 years, compared to nine in 2017 and 2016.

My friends are the bedrock and blessing of my life. I have known some of my dearest friends since kindergarten as little girls. And then there are the friends we gather as we grow up and live on our own. They too are part and parcel of our lives.
Friends are those who become part of our families, our lives, our hearts and our total being. Friends share in ways that make our lives richer, fuller, better. It doesn’t matter if we have known each other since childhood; a good friend is a good thing no matter how long or short we have been friends.
Ever notice when you meet someone for the first time that you get that ‘aha!’ feeling? That usually means that you feel a connection; a possibility for a new friend. If you have ever read the “Red Thread Theory,” it all makes sense. The Red Thread Theory is this:
From Wikapedia: “The Red Thread of Fate, also referred to as the Red Thread of Marriage, and other variants, is an East Asian belief originating from Chinese legend. According to this myth, the gods tie an invisible red cord around the Finger of those that are destined to meet one another in a certain situation as they are “their true love”.
I also believe that the Red Thread Theory is about friendship as well. There are people who come into our lives and make us better; more loving, more kind. A dear friend is a blessing, a gift, and a joy. How lucky are we to have such friends? | <urn:uuid:aba96d2c-5498-4b65-ad3a-a4841b8b8b9e> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://luluopolis.com/2019/09/20/the-friends-who-make-our-lives-better/ | 2020-09-30T02:42:29Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600402101163.62/warc/CC-MAIN-20200930013009-20200930043009-00798.warc.gz | en | 0.96819 | 321 |
Mandalay region’s minister for electric power and industry, U Kyaw Myint, said he will request the regional government to issue loans to the region’s small and medium enterprises (SMEs) in the coming weeks.
“Previously Mandalay region was given only K1 billion for loans. But the union minister for industry pledged another K1 billion during our meeting on August 1, increasing our fund pool to K2 billion.
“I will inform the government to screen and issue loans. The loans require government approval before issuing,” U Kyaw Myint told Myanmar Business Today.
The regional government has also formed a loan review committee with representatives from the industrial administration, tax office, city development committee and industrial zones. The committee will inspect the businesses applying for loans and report their findings to the regional government, the minister said.
So far, 289 SMEs have applied for loans, 142 of those have been found to meet the requirements, and 85 SMEs among them will be provided with a loan of minimum K100 million ($100,000) to a maximum K500 million ($500,000) each, according to U Kyaw Myint.
The loan will be issued with an interest rate of 8.5 percent. Mandalay region has three industrial zones with over 7,000 registered SMEs, according to the regional Ministry of Electric Power and Industry.
“The loan requests from the SMEs amount to K20 billion, but we have been allotted only K2 billion. We will approve loans for businesses that meet requirements,” U Maung Muang Oo, secretary of Mandalay industrial zone management committee, told Myanmar Business Today.
“The government should determine the amount of loan money available for each region and state based on the number of SMEs in that area,” he added.
The current loan process allows businessmen who actually need funding get loans with the support of the government compared with the past practice when only people who know their way around the banking process could get loans.
Despite the allocated funds being not enough to fulfill the requirement of the SMEs, it can help ease some of the dire financing need of local SMEs, said a businessperson who runs an SME in Mandalay region. | <urn:uuid:fd53220b-695d-4c7e-a210-12bfe1b6f5e6> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://mmbiztoday.com/mandalay-smes-to-get-k2-billion-minister/ | 2020-09-30T02:10:08Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600402101163.62/warc/CC-MAIN-20200930013009-20200930043009-00798.warc.gz | en | 0.952052 | 465 |

from his name, waa a son of the plains.
The greater part of bis life had been

for a coachman. I'ude health had
been acquired during his free, open-air
life, and strength and agility were well
combined in his large and symmetrical
form. . He had a strong and pleasing
face, but he was not handsome. Quito
noticeable Was his careless western
gait which showed thut he waa unfa
miliar with the podotttrhinism of great
luring the month that Miss Val
oppel wan absent from home, ltucktkin
became proficient In his new duties,
and learned much concerning the topo
graphy of the city. Mrs. Valoptiel,
whose life of indolence and Indulgence
In high living had given her a puffy
appearance and rendered her tin wield
ly, often ordered tho carriage in the
afternoon and took a drive up and
down the avenues, and occasionally in
Central Tark. Huckskin waa thus af
forded good opjioilunitios for aeelng
the beautiful and fashionable young
ladles of lhe city; but none of them
jKwessed the air of regal superiority
which distinguished Miss Yaloppel.
lluckskln eagerly awaited the re
turn of the daughter of the household,
and speculated much as to whether sho
would ever take any notice of him.
When she did come back, he was more
than ever impre-sed by tho cold dis
tinct of her manners. She scarcely
ever deigned to look at him. .She
spoke to him only when it was necess
ary, and then uttered courteous de
mands in firm but mellow tones, that
lingered in his mind long after the
sound had died on his ears. For two
months her manner toward him was
unchanged. At the end of that time
he noticed thnt she would occasionally
look at him in a covert way, when sho
thought sho was unobserved, and that
sho appeared to l concealing consider
able curiosity concerning him. Final
ly to hU immense surpriso and mortl
licatlou, she departed from her rulo to
titter command alone, and abruptly
"Mr, Jluekxkin, why do you not
overcome your horrid Western gait,
and walk like city people? The conch-
man of a family like ours should have
a cultivated walk."
I I beg pHrdon, Miss Valoppol, "
poor Hiickskin stammered; "I'll try to
Improve; indeed I will."
Buckskin sought out a fiishlonnble
dancing master, who taught him how
to walk properly. Ho bought a large
looking-glass, placed it in his room,
and every evening spent an hour in
walking before it until he had com
pletely overcome bis defects.
Miss Yaloppel noticed the great lm.
provement in tho cohcIi man's gait and
relaxed her haughtiness sufficiently to
show him that she waa pleased.
hon Spi-ing arrived, Miss Yaloppel
expressed a desiro to ride on horseback.
and having learned that Buckskin had
been a cowboy and was a ftno rider,
she preferred to tako lessons of him
rathor thnn from an inHtructor.of the
academy at Central Park. Accordingly
they often rodo together in the paric
and soon became well acquainted. The
manllnoss, the good sense and lhe
physical power and dexterity evinced
by Buckskin favorably impressed Miss
Yaloppel, who admired heroes and
despised dudos. She also discovered
that he waa singularly well Informed
for a man in hU station, and that con
versation with hira was both instructive
and agreeable. On tho othor hand,
Buckskin was delighted to find that
Miss Valoppcl had an affectionate
heart and many admirable qualities, in
spite of hor reserve. Now that the Ice
had at last been broken, she gave him
her friendship and treated him with a
respect which, in view of their previ
ous relations, seemed Incredible..
But there cume a disagreeable
change. Count Poccopticcl of Italy
in-rived In New York, mid received a
warm welcome from Mr. Yaloppel,
who believed that ho could now obtain
tho long do-lrod titled son-in-law.
Tho count was an inferior looking
mortal. Ho hail nn evil eye and su
percilious manners, but ho found favor
with Miss Yaloppel. Buckskin became
very melancholy, for ho was now
deeply In love with the proud beauty.
Meanwhile Count Poecopuccl, in
stead of the coa-hnian, accompanied
Miss Yalonpel whet hlie rode on horse
back in Central park. Buckskin,
however, saw her nearly every day,
and he noticed after awhile that he
seemed very sad and that tho rich
bloom was fading from her cheeks.
One morning ho usked him to
ride with her in lhe pnrk. 1 lor mood
was melancholy and site did not speak
to him for some time.
Finally, blushing" deeply, she said

Queer Pennsylvania Jimtlre.
A novel sentence has been pronounced
by a justice at Huntington, in rthis
state. A wife hnd kissed "another
man;" her husband had chastised her
with corporal punishment, and Justice
Kelly, supplying the third act In a
druma unhappily played with too much
frequency in all our courts, gave a ver
dict "that the wlfo retire to hor usual
place of abode, and lock tho doors so
that no strangers can be admitted for
a period of six days; that tho husband
for tho same length of time board with
his next-door neighbor and sleep in tho
burn, and that each party pay half the
costs and stand committed until tho
sentence Is complied with." Of tho
efficacy of such an original judgment
thero cannot bo much doubt, although
a question might bo raised on tho con
stitutional ground of its being cruel and
unusual punishment at least for the
next-door neighbor. Tho usual pun
ishment for wife-beating, however, is
so clearly inadequate that, in the ab
sence of a whipping-post, tho result of
the now departure in dealing with this
despicable crime deserves curoful
watching. Philadelphia Record.

It would be ft pity for the sojourner
in this part of Peru to miss seeing
Cuzco, the ancient'capital of the Incaa,
writes Fannie B. Ward, in a letter
from Ariquipa to the Philadelphia
Kecord. There are no hotels along
tho route, and one must depend upon
private hospitality, which is freely
accorded to those who bring letters of
recommendation. Every village has
its tambo, however, similar to the inns
of Kgypt in Mary's time.
The first day Is by far the hardest
of tbe entire trip, as much because one
is not yet used to it as because the road
is Incomparably worse; and at all
hazards one must roach Aguos Calientea
To the right of a lofty, snow-clod
mountain one follows for seme miles
and finally fords a small water-course,
which seems to rise ia one of the hot
springs so numerous in that locality,
and which Peruvians regard as the
mother spring of the great Amuzona
Tbe little stream which here takes
the name of the near-by mountain is
known as the Chulcu further on, and
afterward as the Vrabamba. Many
miles farther northward, having gained
much strength and volume, it joins the
Kio Tambo, and their united waters
form tho famous Ucageli, the largest
of Peru's tributaries to the Amazons.
The second night out one is booked
to sleep at the village of Mcuuin, a
rldo of only eighteen miles, through
charming scenery. There i a possible
drawback, however, in the Licuain
liver, which must be forded )overal
times, and is likely to be rather high.
There la a road on the left, of It, but
travelers are warned to Jake to the
water instead, for there are vast
swamps on thut side, with quicksands
treacherous enough to ingulf an army;
and, besides, one must puss through
the unfenced hacienda of Antaoucea,
which Is celebrated far and wide for
its wild cattle. Nobody goes over that
dangerous rood if he can avoid it,
there being no place of refuge should
he bo attacked by the torros. Fancy a
party of United States tourists, includ
ing two women, riding poaceably along
on mule-buck, when a herd of wild
bulls come charging full tilt upon
them, and not a wall or tree or bush
to hide behind.
In the vicinity of the hot springs
there are acres of plump mushrooms,
and no passer-by whose palate has
boon properly educated will fail to se
cure a supply for hit evening meal,
whether he takes it at the tambo. or
at the hospitable home of Don Pablo
Me j ins.
The third night one sleeps at 'Tinta, "
a hacienda owned by an educated
Italian, Senor Don Francisco Masciotta,
who is sure to give the pilgrim a kind
ly welcome. The road thereto lies
through an ancient Indian village
called Kuccha, built within the crater
of an extinct volcano. Among other
curiosities, it contains a remarkable
wall, which is said to be tho remains of
a palace built by an Indian prince,
eldest son of Tupac Yupangl, who re
volted against paternal rule and here
maintained his independence. Near it
is one of the many small round towers
so frequently found in this part of
Peru, which are believed to have been
astronomical observatories wherein the
Incus determined the meridian passage
of the sun.

way a few miles to view the little lake
called Urcos, famous in Peruvian tra
dition for being tho burial place of that
great gold chain of tho Inca Huoscar.
Wo read that tho celebrated chain was
long enough to encircle tho grand Plaza
Mayor of Cuzco, and that every link
in it w:w us heavy ns a strong man

Of course the story Is nonsense; nev
ertheless we spurred our beasts to tho
perilous brink and faithfully tried to

As a business owner, you will know that there are many situations in which leasing can be beneficial, from upgrading your car to finding a bigger office. You also know that there are many instances where buying outright is not practical, or does not make financial sense. This is especially true as if you own a startup business or a small company, cash flow can be limited, meaning you are not always in the position to invest in large purchases.
In these scenarios, hiring can be the perfect solution. For many businesses, this may also be the case when it comes to test equipment. With more and more enterprises now relying on technology to fulfil business duties, it follows that more businesses are needing to test their equipment. Although test equipment can be purchased, here are a selection of reasons why your business can benefit more from hire.
For the majority of businesses, things like PAT testing will only need to be completed once a year. If you were to purchase testing equipment, this means it would sit unused for the majority of the time and therefore perhaps does not justify the investment. Instead, by hiring from the likes of MCS Test Equipment, you need only pay for the amount of time required.
With a limited cash flow, many small businesses struggle to invest in new equipment. Leasing test equipment is an affordable solution where capital does not permit purchase, allowing business owners to keep their workplace and workforce safe, for a fraction of the cost. A small yearly leasing fee is also easier to find in a modest budget.
When purchasing any equipment, it usually comes with some form of warranty. However, after this guarantee period expires, it is then up to you to maintain, fix and replace, which could be costly. By hiring, you are provided with up-to-date testing equipment and you are safe in the knowledge that should anything go wrong, the leasing company will provide you with assistance and support.
Try Before You Buy
Perhaps you would eventually like to buy your own testing equipment – a great option if you make or produce your own products – but are unsure of what equipment is needed, or perhaps which brand is better. Leasing allows you to try before you buy, so you can sample the market’s testing equipment before committing to purchase.
Leasing testing equipment can be a great solution for your business. Only pay for the time required, benefit from technical support, and is a chance to try out equipment before buying. | <urn:uuid:47ea5c04-aa58-4c38-8324-bf2588f41563> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://newsblaze.com/business/finance/how-businesses-can-benefit-from-renting-test-equipment_81607/ | 2020-09-30T03:44:46Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600402101163.62/warc/CC-MAIN-20200930013009-20200930043009-00798.warc.gz | en | 0.972839 | 492 |
Honest Cop Tested by Blue Wall of Silence in Gritty NYC Crime Saga
The Tierneys are a tight-knit Irish-American clan with a long history of service in the NYPD. Family patriarch Francis (Jon Voight) is a highly-regarded, retired police chief who has preserved his connections to the upper echelons of the department. Frank, Jr. (Noah Emmerich), is an equally-respected precinct commander in Manhattan, while his younger brother Ray (Edward Norton) is a former narc relegated to an inconsequential desk job since an incident in the Mott Haven section of the Bronx that not only stalled his career but cost him his marriage. Their brother-in-law, Jimmy Egan (Colin Farrell), is a covertly-crooked patrolman working under Frank, Jr. whose unlawful ways are about to catch up with him, big time.
Just past the point of departure, the festive Christmas season is abruptly spoiled when four officers are murdered during a drug bust gone bad inside a seedy Washington Heights apartment. Frank, Sr. immediately urges Ray to return to the streets to join the special task force being formed to search for the cop killers, since the men who died were all under his big brother’s command.
Ray does so reluctantly, though reasonably expecting the trail to lead to some sleazy street punks. But when it instead implicates fellow officers including his own brother and brother-in-law, he finds himself facing a crisis in conscience. For the last time he was in a similar situation, he had compromised his moral code by lying under oath to protect a cop on the take. That’s why he lost the respect of his wife (Carmen Ejogo) and now lives alone on a leaky houseboat. This go-round, the stakes are even higher, for he uncovers a widespread pattern of corruption indicating that the entire precinct might be in cahoots with the mobsters wreaking havoc on the local neighborhood. Then, when he tries to bring the facts to the attention of the department brass, he’s met with the subtle suggestion that they’d prefer for him not to break the Blue Wall of Silence.
So, will Ray play ball and participate in another cover-up, or will he testify truthfully, and thereby risk ripping both his family and the precinct apart? That is the question waiting to be addressed in Pride and Glory, a gritty, inner-city saga directed by Gavin O’Connor (Miracle). This high body-count affair begs to be compared with The Departed but is simply too formulaic and cliche-ridden to measure up favorably with that Oscar-winning Best Picture.
Nonetheless, Pride and Glory was fortunate enough to be blessed with a talented cast, including Noah Emmerich, Colin Farrell, Jon Voight, Rick Gonzalez and Wayne Duvall, that managed to elevate its paint-by-numbers script to an acceptable level. However, Edward Norton is the standout here, turning in yet another inspired performance as the anguished Ray, a complicated soul in search of redemption, and as ready to mix it up with bad guys as to beg his estranged ex for a second chance.

I have taken a little breather from writing new content for the blog.
A large part of that is due, in part to….wait for it….selling my Jeep! That’s right, I sold my Wrangler.
A lot of people asked me why. Basically it was a combination of things. Primarily, I was just a little bored with it. Don’t get me wrong, I love Wranglers. And I will have another one. But for now, I wanted something different.
Second, I was bored with rocks. I have done the Rubicon 3 times, Moab 3 times, and countless trips in Oregon and Washington. I want to try overlanding and exploring with the family, not just bouncing off rocks.
And last, I want to learn something new. I have worked on my Jeeps for many years, and want to learn something new. In addition to overlanding, I want to try a new vehicle, a new platform, and even a new brand.
My Jeep had been sitting in the garage for maybe a week. So I decided to start it up one day, and was greeted with a new chime, and the dreaded Check Engine Light.
I ran my diagnostics through the Bully Dog, and the result was surprising – it returned codes for P0113 – Intake Air Temperature Sensor Circuit High, and P0480 – Fan 1 Control Circuit.
I forced the fan on via the Bully Dog, and nada. As a friend of mine recently replaced his fan assembly, I figured I was also looking at a $120 bill and 10 minutes of work. Well I was wrong. He has the 3.8l. The new fan (OEM replacement) is a whopping $500 and very hard to find in stock.
With my wedding approaching (and the Jeep playing a key role in it) I was desperate to find out what was happening.
I always wanted to add hydro assist to my Jeep but questioned the PSC kit’s price point. Being a simple system I figured others would work just as well or better. Enter Redneck Ram from West Texas Offroad.
I found myself once again calling my buddy Dirk to help lend his expertise with this somewhat complicated install.
This was a two day install, as we could only work nights.
First things first, we put the Jeep on the lift, removed the front driver tire/wheel, tie rod, and sway bar links. We also removed the pitman arm from the drag link (leaving the passenger side connected).
UPDATED 09/11/2017 with something new! I was delaying changing out the positive terminal, due to all the aux wiring and everything. I found a set of “Battery Terminal Shims” at my local auto parts store, and they work awesome! Just remove the stock terminal ring, slide on the shim, and use a mallet to gently tap the ring back over the new shim. No gap, no movement!
UPDATED 10/8/2014 with a very important update! Even though I applied this fix to my battery terminals, there must have been a very tiny gap that remained between my terminal and the battery post.
On a recent offroading trip, I was winching another vehicle and the additional strain on the battery caused a spark to arc and actually fused the terminal to the battery, causing battery failure. The ground winch cable was too hot to touch. I was lucky to get out under power and make it home. It remains an expensive fix (the OEM battery was only a year old) but if you are stuck in the woods, the costs and risks increase. Based on the temperatures, I would not rule out a fire risk. Please REPLACE your terminals immediately to prevent you from getting stuck, or worse.
Original post follows:
The forums are ablaze with questions around concerned Jeep drivers, that their gauge cluster will suddenly light up, chime, and do some weird things – but only for a second or two.
I found myself dealing with this exact same problem in both my 2012 and 2013 Rubicons (the videos above are mine). Taking the 2013 in under warranty, the dealer was just as perplexed as I was. Eventually they changed the electronic sway bar disconnect motor (claiming it was not sealed for water and thus causing the short).
UPDATE 3/25/2015: Jeep has been in contact with me (per the comments) regarding changes and fixes they have been making on this program. I downloaded the new version from Google Play this week, and so far the app looks like a total redesign and it seems nice. Time will tell when I attempt trail logins and other activities on the site, if I decide to give this another shot (I did notice my previous achievements are still missing in the big browser version). Check back here and I will update my review!
In principle, it’s brilliant. The program has Jeep owners create a profile (linked to their Jeep’s VIN) and perform certain tasks to rank up among fellow Jeep owners.
If you upload a photo from the trail you get 15 points, you can give a virtual Jeep wave for 5, or comment on a thread for 5 points. You also get 10 points for each day you log into the system. But the real points come rolling in when you check in at a trail for some Jeeping with a whopping 200 points per check in. Continue reading Product Review: Jeep’s Badge of Honor Program→
This week, the auto world was thrown into a tizzy over Jeep’s latest salvo in bringing more fuel-efficient vehicles to the fleet. This of course, is mostly to offset the MPGs of their core vehicles (Wrangler and Grand Cherokee), but also aims to make the Jeep brand more appealing to a larger audience.
When Jeep (a.k.a. Chrysler, a.k.a. Fiat) introduced the new Cherokee, I feel they missed the mark. But most of that was simply because they blew the Cherokee heritage. Had they called it something else (maybe something patriotic like the “Justice” or “Freedom” to match the “Liberty” already in their line up #sarcasm), I am sure the reception would have been warmer.
I always get excited the night before a big Jeep day. I meticulously pack all my recovery gear, load up the ARB with my vegan goodies, check under the Jeep, check the fluids, and try my best to get some sleep.
As I lay there in bed, I think about what the next day will hold – will I break anything? Will anyone do something awesome (i.e. will they break anything?) Will we all have an awesome time?
The answer to the latter is always a resounding yes. And this day was no different.
I departed Rhododendron early, in time for a mandatory coffee stop and to pick up some veganaise at Fred’s. Once on the road, I made my way to our typical meeting place in North Plains. I arrived about 30 minutes early.
We pulled into Brown’s Camp to air down and plan our route. I was always interested in Little Rubicon (I mean, I did ‘Big Rubicon’ how hard can this one be?) so we headed off in that direction.
We all decided to walk the hardest part of the trail, choose our lines, and determine who would be the crazy one to go first. As Robert had the best rig for the job, we decided that he would be the guinea pig.
After climbing the initial trail segment, Robert soon hit some of the famous TSF mud. Even his well-equipped JK with Tera Grapplers could not tame the mud, and we all decided it was in his (and his Jeeps’) best interest if we save this trail for another day.
After a regroup, we decided it was time to hit the famous Firebreak 5, similar in it’s intimidation to the Vonnegut namesake, yet lacking the intellectual depth. Nevertheless, we were off to sling some mud, do some good ol’ American cursing, and eat some Beyond Meat.
The initial segments of FB5 were fun yet uneventful. At this point, the early morning clouds were burning off and the sun was filtering through TSF’s majestic pines. Of all the things I love about Jeeping in this forest, the smells are my favorite (and no, not just the burning rubber). Sadly, I was amazed at the timber harvest along this famous trail – it was unrecognizable.
We stopped for a quick lunch break, and I busted out the Beyond Meat, giving everyone a try. My trailing buddies also got free Beyond Meat coupons and recipes to make their own goodies at home.
After lunch we continued up the hill.
The one spot that we all struggled with (even Robert spun his tires once, I think) was a short muddy section with just enough of a mud/rock ratio that we needed to winch. Robert was the only one in our group to make it on his own.
We all (except Robert) got stuck and needed to be strapped and winched. And, before my friends blame me for not putting photos of my own recovery, well I was driving…
Once past this section there were a couple of small hang ups but for the most part we made our way along.
The final section saw us punching through the snowline for a nice change in scenery. The white forest was a stark contrast to the brown, mucky slop we had been fighting with.
The forest changed her challenge for us in this upper section, from mud to tight, narrow trees. These trees threatened to take off mirrors, fenders, and door handles, and could really make a mess of a nice JK hard top.
We all made it through this gauntlet without issue and soon popped out into a beautiful sunny opening that signaled the end of our day in TSF.
My day ended where most days should end – in front of a Buffalo Bomber wrap (with mac, of course) at Veggie Grill!
I struggled mostly in the mud on this trip, so most of my recommendations would focus on ways to get me the traction I needed in the slop.
It isn’t everyday that the Jeeping community gets to do something that dramatically helps other people. So when we heard about a restored 1974 Jeep J20 being donated to a family to help them, I jumped at the chance of being part of the Jeep family that would deliver the truck.
Our small group of Jeeps met in Troutdale and convoyed out to Hood River where we finally met up with others and the Hood River Police Department. Aaron is a retired Hood River Police Officer that ended his career early to stay home and assist his son, Thomas who needs special care.
The group “Keeping Disabled Vets Jeepin and Free” works on and provides Jeep vehicles to vets and those needing a little Jeep love to keep them offroading and to allow them respite from their day to day.
They do wonderful things.
With a full police escort, our group snaked through Hood River, and ended up 11 miles out at the Jubitz family home.
There, the family was surprised with their fully restored Jeep J20.
After some walkthroughs of the Jeep, and some words shared by most, it was time for the maiden voyage as Aaron drove his wife off in their new Jeep.
Below is a video from the day I put together:
The thought I walked away from is how there are so many people around us doing beautiful things, and we don’t even know it.
If you can, please make a contribution to the program by contacting the group on their Facebook page. | <urn:uuid:4983331b-990e-4f2d-a601-a00d6e6216bf> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://offroadvegan.com/tag/jeep/ | 2020-09-30T02:51:23Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600402101163.62/warc/CC-MAIN-20200930013009-20200930043009-00798.warc.gz | en | 0.968831 | 2,456 |
Finance Tips For Young Investors
Here are some finance tips that we wish we had taken to heart when we were young. Hopefully they can help you young (and older) people out there.
Book Your Free Strategy Session With Pumped On Property
Resources Related To This Episode
There’s a lot of young investors out there or young people who want to get into the property market or start saving for their first property and so today I’ve got with me Simon Everingham from pumped on property and we’re going to give some of our financial tips or advice, things that we wish we knew when we were younger or things that we’ve learnt, um, you know, as we’ve progressed that we think could help you younger investors out there. So. Hey Simon, how’s it going today?
Yeah, good guys. Good. Really excited for today’s conversation. It should be interesting. I know I look really young and I am really young. Said he’s going to be a different one. But yeah, some of the things that I’ve experienced throughout my journey, I’ve definitely made an impact that the person that I am today and yeah, can’t wait to share those things with you.
Yeah. And I think this is going to be a good one because me and Simon have kind of taken different approaches to our finances. I’m quite young as well. I’m 30, I’m not quite as young as Simon at 25, but rather than, you know, going to uni, getting a job and saving that way, I kind of like stepped out of all of that and started my own business and achieve financial freedom that way. We’re a Simon himself, has gone to university, is getting a job and is now working towards achieving financial freedom through property rather than through business life. I did. So we’ve got a couple of different approaches so I feel like there’ll be a bit for everyone, enhance some of the things we might disagree on, which we’ve talked about before the video, so that’ll be a bit of fun, but hopefully you guys can walk away with this and have some advice and for those older people out there who aren’t, don’t feel like spring chickens anymore. Some of this stuff will still be relevant to you as well and you can assess, okay, am I doing this? Am I not doing this in my life? You might not take everything out of this, but then she’ll be something good for you in there. So. Well, why don’t you start Simon and give one of your first tips.
Great. Yeah. So my number one tip number one thing that I’ll wish I did as a younger investors understanding the difference between an asset and a liability and it’s something that I wasn’t taught in school. I’m not sure if you were Ryan, but no teacher ever told me the difference between an asset or liability. My parents never told me what the difference between an asset and a liability was. Um, it was something that I had to learn, learn the hard way in. Um, what I did as a younger kid. Obviously you save up to get your first car and that’s the sort of the first thing that you do. And um, then you know, we all know that a car is an asset. It’s definitely a liability. And um, I, I kind of wish that I had had that understanding from a younger age of what, what an asset is and what a liability is and how, why can actually utilize that from a young age.
So what, what do you classify as an asset and what do you class? I classify as a liability,
I’d classify an asset is something that’s going to appreciate in value over time and I see a liability is something that depreciates in value over time. In simple terms.
Yeah, and for me, I see it differently. I use like the rich Dad, poor dad approach to asset and liability. So if you were to google asset definition, it wouldn’t be this definition, but Robert Kiyosaki, Rich Dad, poor dad says an asset is something that generates passive income or puts money into your pocket and a liability is something that takes money out of your pocket. So he tells people that their house is a liability because even though it’s appreciating in value, it’s actually taking money out of their pocket because they’re paying their mortgage or even if it’s paid off, they go to pay their rates, insurance and stuff, etc. And so for me, my approach, I agree with you, but my approach was always looking at jet generating ways of looking at like building things that generate a passive income and then reducing things that took money out of my pocket. So rAther than going for the value appreciation, I was always going for the passive income.
Yeah, that’s a really good way to look at it. Definitely. And it’s what I’m working towards now. Obviously trying to create a passive income through properties, really important for myself. Um, so then I can have the freedom of choice in the future, um, as a young person as well, which is going to be really beneficial. Um, so I can definitely see how that approach would work in today’s society and like 100 percent agree with you as well.
Yeah. And so will. My point was, my fIrst tip was to focus on your skills. And so something that I found really valuable on my life is rather than focusing on how much money am I going to make from this one particular job, focusing on building skills in an off myself. And I really do believe that education, yes, but actually building the ability in and of yourself to do things that are going to be valuable to other people, to other businesses, etc. Can really lead to you creating more money in the future. Being able to save easier, being able to get better jobs, so like an example of that is like one of the skills that I’ve built over my time is the ability to generate traffic to a website to create content and to generate traffic so everything from property investing to product reviews and all sorts of random stuff and so I have a skill where I understand internet marketing and I know how to do it and I could then take that skill and apply that to any business.
So if I found myself where my online businesses were suffering rather than going on seek.com or whatever to try and find a job that’s advertised. I feel like I could just walk into a business and say, here’s what I’ve done. Here’s the skills I have. I can do this for your business. And so I feel like rather than just job hunting, looking at how can you build skills in your life and that’s something that you can do in your spare time for not a lot of money. But as you build them up, you could. You become a more valuable asset. Whether you decide to work for someone else or to run your own business and the longterm payoff of that is going to be huge.
Yeah. It’s really interesting that you say that, ryan, because it’s obviously really important to build up your personal skills so he can go out and get the job that you really want or start the business that you really desire. And I came into that sort of understanding from going to university and I know there’s some differing opinions about university in today’s society, which is totally cool. Then for me, I walked away with it with a huge benefit and that was the ability to learn how to learn. so what I mean by that is, um, I can now go away and read a book or listening to a podcast or partner up with somebody and utilize the skills that they have to apply to my own life so that I can, I can move forward and become a better person and increase those skills. And um, I think university of paid a huge part in an acquiring that type of knowledge of learning how to learn.
Yup. And I would argue that you can learn how to learn with the outgoing to uni or you can learn, I feel like learn stuff easier, but that’s probably not an argument that we need to get into some people like on any, some people email me and they’re like, I’m going to uni, what do you think? This is what I really want to do and it’s not in line with a unicorn. And like, dude, just drop it out, go and do what you actually want to do. start a business. I always recommend the lean startup to people, which is a really great book on learning how to learn in business in particular and how you can really build a successful business or get a startup off the ground. Um, but one of the things that like I want to add onto that, you did uni, I just read a heck ton of books.
Like I read so many books and that was a huge influence on me. Rather than go to university, I remember I would stay home and I would read books. And so rather than going to a job at the time, I would stay home and I would read books on finance and at the time it was really stressful because we, me and my wife was pregnant. We weren’t really making enough money. We were pretty poor. But the longterm payoff of that has been absolutely huge. And the major books that really changed things for me was like the rich dad, poor dad books in the series by robert kiyosaki because that just taught me to shift my focus to what we talked about at the start, which is that focus on generating passive income and everything that you do, building that passive income. And so he says the rich don’t work for money.
and so what so many people do, I find is they go to uni or they just enter into the workforce and they focus on how to make more money or how to earn more per hour. And for me, rather than that, I was like, rather than working, how do I make more per hour is like, how do I spend more time building assets and building that passive income? And so reading books is a really good thing, I think, but also not focusing on just working for money because that can become a trap in and of itself. Sure, earning more is great, but only if you then going to take that money and use it to purchase assets that will generate you passive income that’s going to lead to financial freedom. Otherwise I feel the people get so trapped by they’d get a better job so they get more credit card debt, they get a car loan, and then they just trap themselves in this lifestyle where they need to earn x amount. They’ve got no free money left over to invest. And so they’re not moving towards financial freedom. They actually moving backwards and trapping themselves in a life that they may not want in the future.
Yeah, that’S the, that’s a really interesting point. And we do see it happening all the time. And I say a lot of my friends that go down that path, they get a job really quickly or they go to university and they study something different. But for myself, um, I went in and did a management and marketing degree because I felt as though that was going to give me the most, I guess the broader understanding of, of the way that life works, but you’re still kind of held back by the old school approach to learning and development. Um, and it’s really important to follow in the footsteps of people that have done it before. Like the robert kiyosaki’s. I’m like a number of different entrepreneurs and, and focus on how you can do it for yourself because when you’re spending the majority of your life for us from, from 20 years of age pretty much through to 65, we’ve always been told that we need to work forever and 45 years is a large proportion of your life.
For myself, I want to be doing something that I enjoy. I want to get up and be excited and passionate about going to work. And I was lucky to land a job that provided me with that joy and that happiness and that drive every single day when I go to work. And if you’re not getting that type of satisfaction out of the majority of your life, then what are you doing? Like it’s time to it’s time to get out there and, and to read those books and to start figuring out what’s gonna make you happier and what’s going to provide you with the choices in your life that you want.
Yeah. One of the things like on that I think, well a couple of things. One is like recognizing the societal pressures that are going to be put on you as a young person, as you enter the workforce, the desire to have a better car, to have better clothes and all of that sort of stuff. Like recognizing that ahead of time and that’s going to happen and you can’t actually control that. Like it is a big influence on us and there’s only so much you can do to remove that influence. But putting things in Your life that can help mitigate that. So one of the things, I don’t know if we’ve talked about it before, but I think we did another video which is pay yourself first. And I wish that I started doing that when I was young. So for pay yourself first, for those who don’t know is when you get paid and you take a portion of your money and you put it into your savings, or you put it into your investments and you pay that first before you pay your rent, before you go out to the pub and drink beers or whatever it may be, you pay yourself first.
And even if when you’re younger and you’re not earning as much, you can only afford $10 a week to pay yourself first. That habit of paying yourself first and locking that away. Then when you had the societal pressures that, okay, I want to buy this new pair of jeans or whatever it may be, you paid yourself first, locked it away. If you don’t have enough money, then you can start to step outside of your current income and say, okay, well how can I earn an extra $150 to be able to pay for that new pair of jeans that I want? And then you start expanding your world because you’ve decided to pay yourself first. I think that is like a huge thing that I wish I starteD earlier because I literally only started that this year.
fish or like I wish I wish I knew that from a younger age, but I did pick it up relatively early as well. Um, but my dAd’s been a pretty avid siva and his whole entire life. And when I got my first job at 13, he did kind of give me the headline yet, get a little money 10 until I’m put 10 percent of you. Why do I every single week? And I’m just like a 13 year old kid. I’m like, no data natIve by new black canadian new skateboard. Like I’m not doing that, but it’s a. I wish I did really adopt those things early. But I was blessed to have somebody in my life that told me money is, is valuable in. And if you aren’t earning a certain amount of money for you to progress through life, it’s really important to start saving. And I did that from a relatively young age, which gave me the opportunity to go away and travel and blow $20,000 on a trip when I was 19 years old and and now actually helped myself put purchase of property as well, like having the discipline and having the skills to put that money away and understand why you’re doing it. And I guess that’s an important point as well as having something to work for a makes it much easier to pay yourself first.
Yeah, and I think as well, anOther skill that I wish I learned was learning how to budget in a way that worked for me. I tried a lot of things that didn’t really work because you know, people recommend them. They say this is the way to budget. I did it, it didn’t work. And so then I start budgeting. I wish that I kept trying and worked out the way that works best for me and the way that works best for me is really after reading the barefoot investor, that strategy and it really is a pay yourself first strategy because you’re paying your investments first, but then you’re also putting money aside into different buckets to say, okay, this money’s for holidays, this money is to pay down debt. This money’s for bills, etc. So I think like taking the time to practice, like look at budgeting as a skill that you need to practice and again like start with small amounts. Don’t put huge pressure on yourself, but just like slowly build up that skill over time. Even if it takes you a couple of years. If you then have the skill of budgeting, then once you start earning more money when you finish uni or when you move up and your career path or start your own business, once you start making more money, then that skill will really come into play a lot more.
Definitely. I think a really good tip for budgeting as well as we’re working off percentages of your income as opposed to a dollar figure because you as, as you grow up, your wage is going to increase and your income’s going to increase. So understanding that you know, you don’t have to always get that nice to car or get the nicer pair of jeans or go to the nicer restaurant. You know, if you work on percentages, you know that as your wage increase is, yeah, your lifestyle is going to increase, but your savings is going to increase at the same time. I think that’s really important.
Yeah. So rather than saying, I’m going to save $100 a month saying I’m going to save 10 percent of my wage per month, and then as your wage goes up, then you’re still saving 10 percent, but that 10 percent is like a larger dollar amount.
Yeah. Well the next thing that I had would be invest for the long term and think about the longterm. I feel like so often, and it’s not just young people that do this, it’s everyone that does this. When it comes to property, they’re like, okay, I’m looking for that qUick capital growth, make that quick 100 k, etc. But I feel like young people have this huge opportunity with building their foundatIonal properties and building their financial freedom at a young age a lot. When investing in property, you can invest in property where the property, we’ll do the majority of work for you and we’ve talked about this in the episode of two properties to financial freedom and so if you haven’t checked out that strategy, go ahead and watch that video. I’ll leave the links in the description down below or you can go to on-property dotcom, w four slash five slash eight to watch that episode over there, but the idea that you purchased the properties and then those properties and the people renting them basically pay off that mortgage for you and then generate the passive income for you.
So I think recognizing at a young age that you can invest in things that they will then go on to do the work for you and achieve financial freedom for you. If you can understand that at a young age, get those foundational properties and then you can spend the next five, 10, 15 years focusing on, okay, well how can I pay them off faster rather than, you know, just trying to make a quick buck here and there. Like if you’re young, so you’re 20, if you’re looking 15 years into the future, you’re going to be retired at 35 like that is so young to be retired or even if you’re 30, 15 years in the future, 45 years, still 20 years ahead of when everyone else is going to retire. So having that long term strategy and that long term mindset and seeing how those properties can pay for themselves and like paid off for you. And then just like taking advantage of that opportunity would be a huge one for me.
Oh 100 percent agree. And as soon as you switch that mindset from short term to long term, your life is gonna change and you’re gonna put yourself in an amazing situation and as you were saying, for 20, 25, even 30 year old, 35 year old person to know that you’re investing for the long term and that you’re acquiring assets that are going to provide you with financial freedom in the next 15 years is so powerful, um, and get getting rich quick. It just doesn’t exist in wherever is trying to tell you that you can get rich quick. They’re lying to you. So just follow, follow the fundamentals, follow the things that have worked, learn books and understand the data. Surround yourself with people who are on the same path or have done it themselves already, and just feed off all the people that are around you that can help you get to that place. And, um, sometimes it can be difficult. I know we grew up in an, in an area or community that nobody likes to talk about their wealth at all if they had any. And um, it makes it really hard to break through those barriers, but there’s so many different avenues that you can go down. You can talk to people for free, you can watch podcast, you can read books. There’s so many different ways to get an understanding about these concepts and really understand them and use them to your advantage as well.
Yeah, and that’s the thing that’s so many resoUrces for young people now that didn’t use to exist. There’s so many podcasts out there that are awesome to listen to. So when you’re doing your commute to uni or your job or where the girlfriend’s house, wherever it is that you’re goIng, rather than just spending that time listening to spotify or listening to music, spending that time, listening to podcasts about investing or about finance or about business or about whatever industry you’re in and skills that you want to build rather than just spending that time listening to music build into your life with that knowledge. And that was something that I did really early on that paid off massively for me. I used to catch the train to work an hour each way and each of those times I would have podcasts downloaded that I would then go ahead and listen to.
Then I was a pharmaceutical rep driving around a lot and so I was always listening to podcasts and it got to the point where I was driving so much and listening on two times speed. I would always run out of things to listen to, so I’d be hunting for new content, but it’s so much easier now with long form content on youtube with the quality of podcasts that are out there that that is just like a slow burn sorta thing that you can do when you’re young. That’s not gonna like have a massive immediate impact on your life and the next day. But if you consistently listening to stuff that’s going to educate you, that’s gonna make you smarter. That’s gonna, you know, make. Yeah, you’re just going to build yourself up over time and it’s gonna have a huge difference over the years. As you listen to that stuff, like the amount of knowledge in my head now from listening to podcasts for the last 10 years is insane compared to people who only listened to music
and it provides a really good avenue for people that aren’t as as well disciplined as you might’ve been brian when you were reading all of those books and forcing yourself to do that because not everybody likes to read books. Nobody likes to do that, but podcasts are really easy to listen to and most of the people that are doing interesting guys that have got an amazing story to tell that it makes it interesting to listen to these people as well. So, um, you’re not forced to sit there and read page after page after page, just sit there with your headphones in and acquire a whole bunch of really great knowledge.
Yeah. And you can even, like I used to listen to podcasts when I was brushing my teeth when I was cooking, like going for runs, like whatever it may be. There’s so Many opportunities to build yourself up. And so is there anything else that you’ve got? I’ve kind of gone through my list now. Yeah, I’ve. I’ve pretty much covered most of the things.
Obviously capital of the main point would definitely be paying yourself first from a young age and acquiring the knowledge that you need to make the smartest decisions. What do you think?
Yeah. Well I think that’s it. Like learning how to budget, paying yourself first, investing into your skills and your knowledge at a young age is going to pay off massively long term and then also investing for the long term rather than just the quick fix right now. Like that might be a quick fix being a car right now or it could be a quick fix being some like magic money making opportunity, looking at the longterm, projecting into the future. If I invest in this property, what’s it gonna look like in 15 years as it pays itself off versus just focusing on the now and because if you’re young and you’re investing in young, you don’t realize it like 30 sounds old to young people or 40 sounds old to young people, but it’s once you. Once you get thAt, you’re like, yeah, I’m still super young, and so investing for the long term and thinking about that would be a really big thing for me for sure. Sweet. Well, that wraps It up for today. We hope that you got some tips in here that can help you as a young investor or even if you’re an older investor, you can still listen to podcasts, like you can still do a whole bunch of this stuff. Pay yourself first, et cetera. So hopefully, yeah, hopefully this has helped a whole bunch of people out there. That’s it from us today. Guys, don’t forget to subscribe to the channel if you haven’t already. As we do release new episodes every week, day, and until next time, stay positive. | <urn:uuid:484672a6-a50a-43ca-803f-7f491407b1aa> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://onproperty.com.au/tips-for-young-investors/ | 2020-09-30T04:10:42Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600402101163.62/warc/CC-MAIN-20200930013009-20200930043009-00798.warc.gz | en | 0.975568 | 5,733 |

Art thou not from everlasting, O LORD my God, mine Holy One? we shall not die. O LORD, thou hast ordained them for judgment… (Habakkuk 1:12, KJV)
The prophet Habakkuk lived at the time when the Chaldeans(Babylonians) were expanding their conquest of the world with unprecedented maliciousness and victory. The rest of the world was essentially scared to death. The prophet Habakkuk was so distressed by the report of the Chaldeans he was hearing. And of course, the nation of Israel was in their list of countries to crush. Amid this external pressure and internal fears, he makes the statement above that “we shall not die.” He recognizes the LORD as the One who is from everlasting.
The Psalmist also recorded a similar prophetic insight for us:
“I shall not die, but live, And declare the works of the LORD.” (Psalm 118:17, KJV)
He further states that not only will he not die but he will live to declare the works of the LORD. He recognizes there is destiny around his life. What do these verses have to teach us today?
The prophet did not just utter the words “I will not die” because he felt to do so. There was a real death threat heading his way. We certainly do not have the Chaldean army today. We have other challenges in life, including diseases, family crises, spiritual problems or even financial issues that can threaten our very existence. We will declare the prophetic words with Habakkuk, that we will not die. But as the Psalmist says it, we will live to declare the works of God!
Meditation is both mental and verbal. You think and mutter the Word. Learn to give the Word time in both your mind and mouth. Mutter these words “ I shall not die, but live, and declare the works of the LORD.”
APPLY THE WORD
Do not let the enemy terrify by any circumstance. As far as God is concerned, and you KEEP YOUR FOCUS on Him, you will come out a victor!
Thank the LORD for the victory we have in Christ. | <urn:uuid:52b6a8c1-05c2-4d66-8780-3e896365f84a> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://patrickoben.com/we-shall-not-die-but-live/ | 2020-09-30T01:44:21Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600402101163.62/warc/CC-MAIN-20200930013009-20200930043009-00798.warc.gz | en | 0.965412 | 468 |

WHAT’S BEING CLAIMED:
- Following an arthroscopic surgery to address a torn right lateral meniscus in his right knee, New Orleans Pelicans rookie Zion Williamson will be sidelined for an estimated 8-week recovery period.
- According to an announcement from the New Orleans Pelicans, the star rookie is expected to be available by December when the team visits the Denver Nuggets.
- Williamson is widely considered to win the 2020 Rookie of the Year Award.
Regarded as the favorite to win the Rookie of the Year award, Zion Williamson, the No. 1 overall pick in June’s NBA draft, will be out of the game from six to eight weeks following arthroscopic surgery on a torn right lateral meniscus, New Orleans Pelicans announced Monday afternoon.
As the Pelicans are set to begin their much-awaited 2019-20 schedule against defending champion Toronto Raptors in Canada on Tuesday, Williamson is expected to be sidelined for about a quarter to a third of the season. Based on his recovery timeline, he is projected to be available when the Pelicans visit the Denver Nuggets in December.
Citing knee soreness, the Pelicans elected on Thursday night to keep the star rookie from playing against the New York Knicks during the preseason finale on Friday. Even with initial reports by ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski that Williamson would miss a “period of weeks”, the latest issue sounded a little more distressing.
In Summer League, the 19-year-old NBA rookie had missed all games except for one, because of a bruised left knee. At the time, David Griffin, the Pelicans executive vice president said that an “abundance of caution” was the reason for ruling him out. However, the new problem this time involves the other knee — the one that caused him to suffer a sprain and miss out a part of his freshman season at Duke.
Prior to the injury announcement, the 285-pound former Duke star averaged 23.3 points, 6.5 rebounds and 2.3 assists in four preseason games while shooting 71.4 percent from the field. In his most recent preseason game, he led the Pelicans with a double-double of 22 points and 10 rebounds. He electrified fans by opening his NBA career with two of his famous dunks.
Last week, Williamson told Liz Roscher of Yahoo Sports that his focus is more on the team, saying, “To win a championship and have an impact on the team — that would be my dream rookie season.”
Meanwhile, a week from Friday, New Orleans opens its home schedule against the Dallas Mavericks. Thanks to Williamson, the team is now in the top half of the NBA in terms of total sales after selling more season tickets than it has in the past decade. | <urn:uuid:8670e7eb-ab9d-4572-982a-a786349fe75d> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://whoknewnews.com/pelicans-rookie-zion-williamson-miss-6-8-weeks-knee-surgery/ | 2020-09-30T02:49:31Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600402101163.62/warc/CC-MAIN-20200930013009-20200930043009-00798.warc.gz | en | 0.966598 | 572 |
Connecting with our Audience: SSP 2019 Recap
In May, the Society for Scholarly Publishing (SSP) held its 41st annual meeting in San Diego. The meeting always provides an excellent opportunity to learn in-depth about issues affecting scholarly publishing, upcoming trends and products and meet current and prospective customers. In every regard, this year’s meeting was a tremendous success.
The theme for this year was “Shaping the New Status Quo: Global Perspectives in Scholarly Publishing”. Dr. Mariamawit Yeshak, a researcher from Addis Ababa University, effectively framed the sessions and conversations to come with her eye-opening keynote “Scholarly Publishing in Africa: Impact Factor vs. Societal Impact.” Her talk encouraged the audience to rethink how the influence of published research can be quantified and valued. In many ways, it was a continuation of last year’s address by Dr. Safiya Noble’s keynote on putting a commitment to greater diversity into action and daily practice.
Of course, Plan S was a topic of conversation in and outside of the SSP sessions. Many of our clients have publishers pondering the future consequences of Plan S and its ramifications. A session addressing Plan S and how Humanities Publishing might accommodate the initiative was a highlight of the meeting. The concept of “subscribe to open” outlined a fascinating and promising approach.
As a provider of publisher services, our personal highlight of this and every meeting is the opportunity to meet with current and prospective clients as well as our vendor partners. 2019 is an exciting year for Allen Press Scholarly Publisher Services, as we implement our new partnership with Silverchair and team with Aries Systems as our exclusive peer review provider. Both of these initiatives were popular topics in the exhibition hall. | <urn:uuid:0fe0900f-13e1-478c-b723-22ceb08167ca> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://www.allenpress.com/ssp-2019-recap/ | 2020-09-30T01:39:29Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600402101163.62/warc/CC-MAIN-20200930013009-20200930043009-00798.warc.gz | en | 0.948864 | 372 |

COLLECTIVE RAGE: A PLAY IN 5 BETTIES
Meet Betty, Betty, Betty, Betty, and Betty...
Inspired in part by Max Fleischer's iconic, sexualized animation, Betty Boop, Jen Silverman's play presents, explores, and explodes the legacy of female stereotypes that women today have inherited--Don't worry, men will have their moment in September when Thinking Cap Theatre stages Young Jean Lee's acclaimed dramedy, Straight White Men.
Not since Eve Ensler has a playwright had such profound (and hilarious!) thoughts to share about women, stereotypes, relationships, and the female anatomy!
In the wake of the POTUS claiming to have grabbed a woman by the p****, and women marching on Washington wearing pussy caps, the P-word, that's right PUSSY, has gotten more play in the media and on the streets than it ever has before. Silverman's play emboldens women to examine their hearts and their parts and gives patriarchy a knockout punch!

Candles and Tealights
Lighting is a crucial part of creating the right ambience for any dining experience. So, you really need to think about how best to create the right lighting for any food service or dining setting. Bright overhead lights can detract from the intimacy of dining, so it’s best to focus on how to light individual table areas. One of the best ways to do this is by using candles and tealights. After all, there is a reason that a candlelit dinner has such a place in diners’ imaginations.
Candles and tealights create a cosy, intimate and warm setting that can really enhance a meal. That’s why we stock a big selection of candles, tealights and holders to help you create atmospheric lighting across your dining space. Our range includes individual and multiple tealight holders, candle jars, liquid wax burners and a huge selection of tealights.
We also stock a choice of candle holders in both classic and modern designs. This includes everything from silver-plated candelabras to small, colourful lantern designs and more. So, however you want to light your space, we can help you do it. And don’t forget your table-top gas lighters for ease of lighting. | <urn:uuid:534e6c64-243f-4c82-9b84-52a74c19bed2> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://www.crownsupplies.co.uk/table-theatre/candles-and-tealights/ | 2020-09-30T02:08:58Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600402101163.62/warc/CC-MAIN-20200930013009-20200930043009-00798.warc.gz | en | 0.914252 | 266 |
Anicka Yi has been named the winner of the 2016 Hugo Boss Prize. Yi is the 11th artist to receive the biennial prize, which was established in 1996 to recognize significant achievement in contemporary art, and marks its 20th anniversary this year.
The prize carries an award of $100,000 and is administered by the Solomon R. Guggenheim Foundation. Yi's work will be presented in a solo exhibition at the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, New York, opening in April 2017.
"The Hugo Boss Prize is a pillar of the Guggenheim's contemporary program and we are proud to be commemorating its illustrious 20-year history," stated Richard Armstrong, Director, Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum and Foundation. "Since 1996, the project has identified and celebrated artists working at the forefront of cultural production, and we thank the many eminent international curators and critics who have served as jurors over the past two decades.

We love all things layered! And our Lace Drape Necklace is no exception, super feminine, delicate and modern. This gorgeous lace type chain looks beautiful worn alone of layer yet another piece for added glamour.
Available in sterling silver and 14kt gold fill. In two lengths, 17 or 19 inch with a 1inch extender.
Initially the gold color was a lot darker than I expected, but it’s beautiful on. It doesn’t tangle as much as 2 separate chains would which is great. Seems to be great quality so far and really spices up my outfits
It's the perfect everyday piece! Quality is superb!
I have been looking for the perfect double layer necklace and finally found it!! Great quality. So happy I purchased this necklace!!
This necklace is so pretty, I love how the layers are connected. The necklace does tangle a bit, but untangles quite easily. Looks great with any scoop neck top/dress.
I love how dainty it is! | <urn:uuid:50e5bf93-5dcd-41da-9a2a-a4a7c70b42cf> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://www.isabellegracejewelry.com/products/lace-drape-necklace | 2020-09-30T03:42:40Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600402101163.62/warc/CC-MAIN-20200930013009-20200930043009-00798.warc.gz | en | 0.930942 | 209 |

Carlson as an influential “Western” artist? In my opinion
Augusta, Georgia is home to profound social polarization. The same city that hosts the Masters golf tournament, a pageantry of Southern wealth and exclusivity http://www.nacoobags.com, suffers from an official poverty rate of 31.6 percent, which is higher than the national average. In total, 11.8 percent of the population lives below 50 percent of the official poverty line.

A destructive ideological experiment is assailing America. The country is being subjected to a “sweeping and increasingly state-sanctioned reordering of its collective memory. The totalitarian left has free rein to dominate public discourse,” continues Mr. Michta in the WSJ.
BLM Goal: Negate the Story of the American Republic
Bloating the American mind is a “steady diet of identity politics and group grievance served up by ideologues in schools nationwide.” The left teaches America’s students that the nation is unjust, racist, sexist and not deserving of respect.
These ideologues have nearly succeeded in remaking our politics and culture; they are reinforced by a media in thrall to groupthink, by credentialed bureaucrats, and by politicians shaped in the monochrome factories of intellectual uniformity that are America’s institutions of higher learning.
In authoritarian systems those in power seek to proscribe certain forms of political speech and social activity. Totalitarians claim unconditional authority to reach deep into each person’s conscience. They prescribe an interpretation of the world and dictate the language with which citizens are permitted to express that interpretation. Authoritarian regimes leave largely untouched the private civic sphere of human activity; totalitarians destroy traditional value systems and reorder the culture. That is why they are harder to overthrow.
A Marxist Project to Re-educate America
The ill-named progressivism that has inspired shrill demands to dismantle police forces and destroy statues is only a small manifestation of a massive project aimed at the re-education of the American population.
Is it not utterly disturbing that one of the co-founders of BLM described herself and her comrades as “trained Marists”? In BLM’s statement of beliefs are its objectives:
- “dismantling cisgender privilege,”
- “disrupting the Western-prescribed nuclear family structure”
- “freeing ourselves from the tight grip of heteronormative thinking”
The goal of this project, continues Mr. Michta, is “to negate the story of the American republic and replace it with a tale anchored exclusively in race categories and narratives of oppression.”
The nature of this exercise, with its sledgehammer rhetoric that obliterates complexities in favor of one-dimensional “correct” interpretations, is as close to Marxist agitprop as one can get.

Steroids form a bone of contention among fairly a variety of consumers; on the other hand their unintended effects aren’t debatable. All you will need to do is log onto a blog web site exactly where people today talk about their experiences when it comes to bodybuilding and steroids.
Regardless to regardless of whether you use steroids for bodybuilding or just for the kick of it, the repercussions cut across to everybody who is under its influence. With the alternation in society and what is seen as acceptable, even kids nowadays are at the chance of struggling with the dire consequences of steroids.
There can be in fact parents who possibly out of ignorance juice up their children lunch just to make them get huge sufficient for their football team. It’s true that parents want the perfect for their children but after you put their health as well as lives at stake, are you searching out for their finest interests or after your personal selfish ambition. You would like to go for serious counseling whenever you start out viewing you kid as your personal personal piggy bank or if you start out re-living your youth via them. What you will need to know is that juicing up children impacts the normal formation and development of bones. This could possibly lead to stunted development which believe me is the least of the troubles. Not only do steroids have an effect on the development and development of one’s bones but also on the brain.
Kids who are introduced to steroids at an early age are at a higher chance of struggling with brain disorder in future as compared to a kid who was left to grow up the normal way.
The unintended effects on ladies take the term negative effects to a entire new level! What steroids do to ladies is so horrible I wonder why one can find ladies out there who still juice themselves. You will discover really a variety of successful female bodybuilders and athletes who have gotten exactly where they’re the pure way. They just merely ate the correct kinds of food, applied very good supplements and were religiously faithful to their working out programs. The shorter route is constantly bumpier than the paved higher way.
Steroids will knock you off your feminine track by a procedure referred to as masculinization. This is whereby your system begins acting on the higher levels with the male hormone known as testosterone in your system. I’m talking about hair on your chin and chest. I’m just obtaining begins so brace yourself for far more. Your shoulders, chest and also jaws turn out to be visibly wider as your voice drops octaves lower. You get spots all over your entire body and a breakout of acne on your face and chest. The general effect of steroids that influence youngsters, men and females are life threatening. I’m talking about kidney failure, heart disease, respiratory disorders and it also impacts the liver. Although yes I won’t lie that steroids assist you get enormous muscles, what I will assure you is that they will also give you enormous complications and will top it up with a enormous funeral! | <urn:uuid:0e524cb4-57fe-4b60-9bc7-ae16613b5a97> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://www.supplementschoice.com/acknowledging-the-risks-and-effects-of-using-bodybuilding-steroids/ | 2020-09-30T02:21:20Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600402101163.62/warc/CC-MAIN-20200930013009-20200930043009-00798.warc.gz | en | 0.96775 | 615 |
As you made your way to work, school or the store this past week, chances are very good that you observed an innumerable number of fellow motorists talking on their cellphones, seemingly oblivious to their surroundings, or perhaps worse, exhibiting the telltale signs of texting and driving, including rapid glances into their lap.
The disturbing reality is that despite everything we now know about the dangers of distracted driving, motorists readily engage in this conduct. Indeed, statistics from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration reveal that at any given time there are as many as 660,000 motorists using their cellphones during daylight hours across the U.S.
As shocking as this is, consider that these motorists aren't just talking or even texting, they are also surfing the internet, playing games and, perhaps most strangely of all, taking photos or videos of themselves while behind the wheel.
Interestingly enough, one insurance news site recently set out to determine where and when this latter dangerous driving habit is the most prevalent.
After examining more than 70,000 Instagram posts with hashtags like #DrivingSelfie and #IHopeIDontCrash, they made the following findings:
- States with the most #DrivingSelfies per 100,000 residents included California (2.53), Nevada (2.52), Florida (2.38), Hawaii (2.17) and Vermont (1.76).
- States with the least #DrivingSelfies per 100,000 residents included Mississippi (.20), Oklahoma (.30), Ohio (.31), Indiana (.33) and Indiana (.36).
- Instagram posts with driving-related hashtags are most popular on the weekends, and spiked from January through March
(It's worth noting that Kentucky was in the middle of the pack for driving selfies.)
When these numbers are cross-referenced with statistics from the NHTSA about the age groups most likely to engage in distracted driving, it shows, perhaps not surprisingly, that motorists aged 20-29 are the most likely to take photos or videos of themselves while driving. However, what is surprisingly, is that motorists aged 15-19 were actually the third most likely to engage in this behavior, trailing motorists aged 30-39.
Here's hoping that this latest report serves as a wakeup call to motorists to keep their phones off or, at the very least, to stop engaging in this especially irresponsible and reckless practice.
If you've been seriously injured or lost a loved one owing to the reckless actions of another, consider speaking with an experienced legal professional to learn more about your rights and your options. | <urn:uuid:a509f927-6841-43d3-8f08-8e9cb40c0aad> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://www.wilhoitlaw.com/blog/2016/july/study-shows-just-how-many-people-are-taking-driv/ | 2020-09-30T02:50:58Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600402101163.62/warc/CC-MAIN-20200930013009-20200930043009-00798.warc.gz | en | 0.969198 | 523 |
Devendra Banhart: Re-hoping in the hands
Deo2.com (UK) | by Sasha
9 out of 10A quiet bolt of lightening is the best way to describe the impact of hearing Devendra Banhart’s album, ‘Rejoicing In The Hands of the Golden Empress’ [to give it its full title], for the first time. It is a total revelation, liberation and salvation you had no idea you needed. This 23-year-old New York-based (via San Francisco) artist sounds simply as no-one else around: an antidote as much as a narcotic, as his US label boss [Michael Gira of Young God Records] and the album’s co-producer remarked.
‘Rejoicing In The Hand…’ is Banhart’s second album [Oh Me Oh My’ was issued in Oct. 03] but first to be noticed widely despite being another precious gem in front of the completely-preconditioned pop-market. Each track is worth treasuring like the air you can inhale outside city limits… Pure, cleanly recorded to hear every breath, including a screwed-up song intro, words enunciated clearly… Communication per excellence.
Song titles such as ‘Dogs They Make Up The Dark’ and ‘This Beard Is For Siobhan’, delivered chiefly by voice’n’guitar [with a very little help of piano and strings], works in a surreal manner. By that we mean an individual artist which is as rare as a great Hollywood movie these days. Dealing in tracks, although some barely pass the one-minute mark, that are of the conventional length, his magnum opus is five-minutes worth of ‘Autumn Child’.
Banhart is storytelling, supplying imagery, engaging brain cells for exploring the new, unusual musical settings, spiritual, pensive, dreamy, hypnotic qualities… Lyrical, delicate, nimble, yearning, wistful but never downright melancholic… It is a majestic album the famed organ NME erroneously termed - folk. There may be shades - as well as the legendary 60’s UK folk-idol Vashti Bunyan duetting on the title track - but this is BLUES as it used to be done originally, perhaps - the Robert Johnson update! One of DB's greatest assets is sounding vintage and post-modern, transcending time, it is all three tenses at once… It alloys time into a seamless entity that freely and easily moves within.
Basic, rudimentary, often stark and utterly acoustic, it carries its great melodies in the vocals that are just - divine! It is an ancient voice - like it has lived through cotton-picking days and grieved around nightly campfires for decades. The timbre in his voice simply tugs at your emotional strings and he uses it to act song characters, bringing them subliminally to life… Coming at you as if perched on a veranda and playing for its own soul, oblivious, elevated [from the dreary wakening hours] whist cleansing from the predictability, stereo typicality, bull…
This is music made by a consummate [obsessive?] artist and it is enough to look at the hand-crafted cover. Each world loveringly executed… Not many of such like around, methinks. Nor there are as many artists who’d drop next album within four months: yep, his next long-player, ‘Nino Rojo’, is due out in late September. [DB apparently recorded 32 songs from the 57 submitted to the label!?]
Art, and music in particular, speaks to you or it doesn’t. There is no rationalising it and learned humans have spent epochs analysing and debating taste but that is not the crux of the form; what matters is the bond an artist can establish with a listener… These are also pacifying songs and if played to the US soldiers in Iraq, they’d down their weapons and pish off home. If I were a religious person, I'd thank the Big Guy for such uplifting talent in the downward spiralling world!
Memorize this name - Devendra Banhart. Extra-f**kin’-ordinary!

Breast reduction or reduction mammoplasty is a surgical procedure to reduce the size of the breasts, by removing fat, breast tissue and skin, making them smaller, lighter and firmer. It can also reduce the size of the areola.
Women with large breasts may have some problems due to this excess weight, such as back and neck pain, skin irritations under the breast and respiratory problems. The purpose of reduction mammoplasty is to provide the woman with smaller breasts and with a more proportional shape to the rest of her body.
Breast reduction is usually done to alleviate a physical problem, rather than for purely aesthetic reasons. Many women who undergo this intervention are worried about the excessive volume of their chest that interferes with many activities and causes physical discomfort.
In most cases it is expected until the chest has fully developed, although it can be done earlier if the physical problems are very important. This procedure is not recommended for women who intend to breastfeed after pregnancy. | <urn:uuid:2fc84e9b-486f-4b66-a834-e85fb31f96c8> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | http://drrafaeltorres.com/body/mammoplasty/breast-reduction | 2020-10-01T16:21:58Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600402131777.95/warc/CC-MAIN-20201001143636-20201001173636-00798.warc.gz | en | 0.965257 | 206 |
Could Georgia function as Following county to Allowed gambling enterprises?
Merely 20 says as well as 2 territories have actually allowed casinos that are commercial their unique secure. Nonetheless, one particular continuing says isn’t Georgia. They are gearing upwards for the big debate over whether or not to alter the principles and regulations, and permit casinos in the future in. This might be probably going to be a hot button problems that goes well into 2016, and possibly beyond.
A panel got together 3 times in earlier times months that are few hear from everyone on both sides and they’re going to submit on the results prior to the legislature reconvenes on January 11. As it is usually the case, you will find arguments both for sides.
Some are concerned about locals getting addicted to the gaming and losing their hard-earned money on one hand. That opposition has become steadily streaming from teams like the trust and versatility Coalition, exactly who advertised with leaflets that stated gambling enterprises result in crime and addiction.
Regarding the flip part, many think that gambling enterprises would build jobs, attract tourism and pull in a number of funds when it comes to county with respect to taxation incomes.
MGM has help with a proposal that includes a $1 billion project for the town of Atlanta. That will incorporate a huge infusion of activity, dining and other money avenues when it comes to county. MGM is not the only video gaming team seeking to get into Georgia whilst the Boyd Gaming company also Penn nationwide video gaming will also be keeping near monitoring of the legislation. They find getting MGM’s greatest competitors in the event that doorways were opened.
As of right now you will find merely a state-run lotto in Georgia but everyone is browsing gambling enterprises on local places to obtain their repair and additionally losing sight of condition to play with possibilities as North Carolina and Florida. So many people are watching this and so are believing that all of this sales could possibly be going to the continuing condition of Georgia.
Georgia Governor Nathan Deal seems like he isn’t too stoked up about the deal; he’s going to keep an eye out with a higher taxation price to reconsider. Hold an optical eye with this debate in 2016 as Georgia weighs in at their options.
Try Boston Room Casino Project Ready to Progress?
Could the higher Boston neighborhood be on the verge of getting a casino? a “helpful fulfilling” between Boston Mayor Martin J. Walsh and casino mogul Steve Wynn enjoys stimulated some optimism. The get-together happens the heels of a important ruling final times when a Suffolk better assess terminated the town of Boston’s suit to get rid of the $1.7 billion casino development.
The casino it self won’t officially be in Boston proper nonetheless it shall be in the higher Boston place. Its likely to be on the waterfront of nearby Everett, which is merely a drive that is short downtown Boston. Wynn have formerly overcome away Mohegan sunlight and Suffolk Downs race-track to earn the license that is sole better Boston.
The conference between Walsh and Wynn lasted for about an hour and it was deemed as a step in the right direction while they didn’t come to any formal agreement. The fact the two fulfilled inside a environment that is productive interact rather than a court to visit head-to-head was already a confident.
Wynn was searching for someone rather than an adversary after winning the licenses but he’s found it becoming hard sledding very much. Walsh while the town of Boston alleged that Wynn received the permit through a corrupt techniques after which attempted to end the development through the process of law, declaring that the fresh casino will have adversely influenced site visitors, the environmental surroundings and safety that is public.
But, assess Janet L. Saunders saw differently and passed a decision in Wynn’s benefit.
There appears to be more at play here than just the metropolis’s disagreement by having a gaming or casino in common. Gran Walsh had a package in position with Mohegan Sun as well as the people who own Suffolk Down race track that settled the city $30 million inside the year that is first $18 million yearly afterwards freecasinogames. But, the Gaming percentage decided to control Wynn the license alternatively even though he only offered a one-time fees of $6 million and $2 million thereafter.
It’ll be fun to watch the relationship between Wynn and Walsh in the upcoming weeks after the “helpful conference”. It’s confusing if Walsh is able to bring basket ball and start to become a partner with Wynn or whether he’s going to continue steadily to hinder the procedure.
UFC 194 Odds: Aldo Betting Underdog vs McGregor for Saturday
It really is secure to declare that Jose Aldo and Conor McGregor hate one another greatly. At UFC 194, they’ll eventually settle their distinctions.
The duo had been supposed to complement at UFC 189 but just before the fight, Aldo, who’s the latest Featherweight champ, ended up being obligated to take out due to damage. That leftover McGregor to combat Chad Mendes for the interim name, which he claimed, and that brings you to UFC 194 and also this Saturday’s unification bout in nevada, Nevada.
There has been a good amount of rubbish chat between your competitors, largely spurred when by McGregor. After having a recent profit, he hopped out of the Octagon to face Aldo, who was simply during the forward line. Immediately after which when Aldo couldn’t make the battle at UFC 189, McGregor would not leave your hear the final conclusion of it.
Aldo will be the unquestioned winner as he’s gotn’t forgotten much more than the usual decade. He goes into during an winning that is 18-fight but one of several critiques is the fact that he has gotn’t fought many adversaries on his levels. Yes, he is taken care of businesses but he hasn’t fought anyone elite like McGregor.
McGregor enters UFC 194 for a 14-fight winning streak, keeping benefits with electricity. This is why we have seen McGregor submitted being a -130 favorite from the UFC betting contours during the sportsbooks despite the fact that Aldo is the real defending champ.
This will be a tantalizing showdown of skill in terms of the matchup in the Octagon. Aldo are effective yet unspectacular. He isn’t fancy but he is quite effective. He’s explosiveness, power and fine-tuned principles that make your the UFC’s pound-for-pound king. What may be his strength that is best in this a person is their safety, and is typically tough to get through. He is very slick.
As for McGregor, he is a relentless fighter that is going to appear forth consistently and pressure Aldo. Aldo is supposed to be looking out for the southpaw’s strong remaining, and is McGregor’s money maker. McGregor will perform his better to keep this fight standing up and to keep Aldo backwards that are moving. He’s most varied together with hits and would love to influence the style.
Whether it’s fought waiting the sides surely visits McGregor, but Aldo appears to have even more apparatus to make use of to prevent that. Then throws in some takedowns to throw him off, he’ll dictate the style if he relies on his defense, speed and combinations to keep McGregor at bay.
If you’re searching at UFC 194 props, you might desire to wager on this combat going the length. Both fighters have become durable also it looks not likely some body ultimately ends up pulled completely or published unless a fighter makes a mistake that is egregious.

In 1970 and 1971 Herbert Schek had won the ‘German Enduro championship above 500 cc’ with a self-modified BMW R75 slash 5. After that, this championship was dominated by Maico’s.
So Schek asked Von der Marwitz, director of BMW Motorcycles, to try to establish a class above 750 cc, in which BMW could become a leader. That worked out, and Schek wanted to build an 800 cc off-road engine himself. But Peres, an engineer from the BMW brand’s development department, disagreed. He thought that his department should build such an engine themself, and was given permission.
The start: the GS 800
For this motorcycle, he started with the engine and drivetrain off the BMW R65, on which he mounted the 90 mm cylinders of the BMW R90. Together with the stroke of the R65, it achieved a cylinder capacity of 782 cc. Several engine parts were cast from magnesium and there was also a lot of ‘shopping’ at other brands. The motorcycle got the tank, the telescopic fork, the front wheel with drum brake and the saddle from a Maico, while the 17 inch rear wheel came from a Honda Goldwing (!). The mufflers came from the American version of the Yamaha XT500.
The new mono shock spring
The frame had the lines of the usual BMW slash 6 series models, but was constructed of Chromium-molybdenum alloy and weighed only 7 kilos together with the swingarm. Peres wanted to use a mono shock spring, but there was no room for a centrally placed spring/damper element because the air filter housing was in the way. That’s why he built the spring on the cardan tunnel. As a result, the right wishbone was already strong enough to hang the wheel on one side. But this did not happen because there was no hub without a thru axle available at the time. The left wishbone was therefore not built very strong and only served to attach the thru axle.
While that was not Peres’ intent, the later BMW R80G/S Monolever system would emerge from this. At the beginning of 1978 the motorcycle was ready and Peres used it in the German championship. He came in second behind Rolf Witthöft with his Kawasaki. In 1979 it was already decided that the R80G/S would come on the market, so that the importance of good results with the GS 800 also counted from a marketing perspective.
That is why BMW deployed twó teams during the Six-Day race. Two gold medals were won by Rolf Witthöft and Fritz Witzel. And in 1980 Witthöft became the European champion.
Paris Dakar rally
In 1981 the enduro regulations were changed and the European ‘Championship Enduro’ started. The new regulations in this championship gave the more lightweight single-cylinders an high advantage, so BMW from then on concentrated on the African desert rallies.
We know now how that all ended; the famous BMW R80G/S ‘Paris Dakar’ was ‘born’ a few years later.
This beautiful poster of German and Europe enduro-champion Rolf Witthöft, riding his BMW R80 GS boxer at the Six Days event in 1980 is now available in the shop. ◁ | <urn:uuid:259f1cf6-af3d-457d-93e9-476bd0d0e431> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | http://shop.motorparade.nl/bmw-r80g-s-motorcycle-poster-with-rolf-witthoft/ | 2020-10-01T15:12:50Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600402131777.95/warc/CC-MAIN-20201001143636-20201001173636-00798.warc.gz | en | 0.970173 | 706 |

Guess who was up and at 'em early this morning?
And guess who was at the track by 8:30(ish), itching to walk lap after lap with a good friend?
Yup, you're lookin' at her...well, you're looking at her blog - same diff.
So, after hoofing it for a whole two laps Dear Friend needed coffee and, the loving and supporting friend that I am certainly, I couldn't deny her.
Two laps are better than none. And that whole 'sweat' thing, really...it's very over-rated. Sitting in a coffee shop while all moist and sticky and stinky is just....so unsavory.
So, we spent almost an hour and a half together, enjoying each others company and vowing to meet again very soon.
What a great start to the week, which happens to begin on the dreaded Monday, so it's a double yippee when it can start off well.
I don't realize how much I miss the company of my friends until it comes time to leave them again. But, as you'll recall from yesterday's blog, I have a new goal to spend time with friends more regularly. I'm already ahead of the game!
On the drive home I was thinking about how much I love to send...
I was the Card Queen, I sent them to people for no particular reason other than to send a card.
But, alas...I don't do it much anymore.
And I'm extremely unhappy about it and resolve to change my slackitude.
I mean look at my card box, it just screams "send me so that I may deliver giggles". Yes, my cards speak to me, don't yours?
As I sit here typing this blog, the homemade garlic rosemary focaccia bread that I have baking is filling my house with deliciousness.
If you were to walk in the door right now your nose would catch a wiff and you'd levitate off the ground and then speed float toward the kitchen (like they do in cartoons)...you would, totally...it smells THAT good in here.
I got the recipe from one of my favorite food blogs, Budget Bytes. Just click the link and it will take you to this specific recipe. But first, here is a glimpes at what's in store:
The dough had been fermenting overnight and was a bubbly ooey gooey wet concoction. The kind of stuff that you just love to thrust your hands into and play with its squishy goodness. But it doesn't speak to me...I mean, really...that would just be crazy.
No matter how many times you blink, you are not going to get a clearer image. I have no idea what happened...eh.
The garlic was crushed into the olive oil to season it. The 'floaters' are rosemary that got jealous of all the attention the garlic was getting and jumped in. Swirl it around a bit and it's like an herb hot tub party - better move on before things get out of hand.
Then you turn the sticky mass onto a baking sheet and poke-stretch-manhandle it into submission. Then you drizzle it with the olive oil, sprinkle with rosemary and bake...and then...
Yea - it was as good as it looks. It was better than it looks. I do admit that I tweaked the original recipe a touch...and if anyone is interested in knowing how, just ask.
I'm going to sign off now to sample it some more. You know, just to make sure the middle is as good as the edge. One can never be too careful when it comes to culinary perfection. ;-) | <urn:uuid:90dd7011-2261-461d-ab46-fe49314656f6> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | http://www.myalienbody.com/2011/07/oh-yum.html | 2020-10-01T15:49:51Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600402131777.95/warc/CC-MAIN-20201001143636-20201001173636-00798.warc.gz | en | 0.979495 | 774 |

Have you ever wondered why only few colors look great on you? Why the same blue shade looks great on your sister but doesn’t give the same effect for you? Yes, even I wondered several times why the hot red looks great on me and why not on my best friend! Every person has a different skin tone and these are divided into “seasons”.
First stand in front of a mirror and try to identify in natural light whether your undertones are warm or cool, with the help of a white sheet under your face as this does not reflect color. If you have yellow, olive or gold then you have a warm undertone and pinks and purples come under cooler undertones. Depending upon the undertones now let’s check out which season you fall under.
Winter: People with dark eyes and dark hair come under this season. Brunettes and at times blondes with dark eye color, olive tones with purplish undertones fall under this category. Opt for bright colors such as fuchsia pink, white, scarlet red, black, navy blue. These colors bring out your inner vibrant glow and make you feel different. Jewel tones look amazing and avoid neutral colors such as tan, beige etc.
Summers: These are flattered by icy and shiny colors. Almost all have natural blonde or light brown hair with light colored eyes. They may also have a slight pinkish tone. Go for colors like rose, lavender, aqua, greys, plum. These colors look amazing while orange and black may not suit. So choose colors with blue undertones and enhance your skin tone.
Autumn: It is the most varied of the categories. If the skin has golden or reddish undertones with golden brown eyes then they come under this category. They should choose vibrant warm colors with golden undertones, like orange, warm greys, gold, camel, beige and avoid blue tones.
Spring: This category usually have light blue or blue-green eyes with strawberry-blond, light brunette, fair skin with an even complexion. Soft colors like golden brown, peach or bright red do wonders. Try to avoid dark and dull colors.
The above-mentioned are the four types of skin tones and make sure you know the type of skin tone you have. Pick colors which enhance your skin and surprise yourself with the change. Colors definitely flatter your tone, to bring out the best and to look as well as feel great; you must follow the chart or else you might end up looking like disaster. Always keep in mind, the shades which suit you and select those while shopping and if you like that particular outfit and if it adapts well to your skin, then do not have second thoughts and purchase that immediately. If finances are low then take same day cash loans which are short-term loans that credit cash instantly and shop till your heart desires without any financially crunches. | <urn:uuid:94983160-6aae-4873-9ce3-ab38fc1c51cf> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | http://www.scatnstyle.com/how-to-choose-colors-to-flatter-your-skin-tone/ | 2020-10-01T14:45:43Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600402131777.95/warc/CC-MAIN-20201001143636-20201001173636-00798.warc.gz | en | 0.926354 | 600 |
Practices in cognitive restructuring, like mindfulness meditation and self-compassion exercises, can help relieve stress and anxiety and improve your mood. And so, yoga on.
Cognitive restructuring? Sounds a little 1984/The Matrix sci-fi. Get out of our brains! But the truth is we’re all guilty of some sort of cognitive distortions at one time or another. Taking things too personally, minimizing achievements, having an “all or nothing” attitude, making negative predictions, thinking in “shoulds” and “musts,” assuming your current feelings will stay the same in the future are all examples of cognitive distortions that come easy for we humans living in society.
Hello little voices in your head that give you a hard time for not balancing so well today in class or forgetting to pay a bill or holding a grudge against a neighbor and so on. We could also call them vrittis, or fluctuations of the mind, eh? (Here’s a list of 50 cognitive distortions for reference and to make you paranoid. Kidding. Seriously, though, try noticing your automatic thoughts when you read them!)
There is good news. And opportunity, with a special nod to yoga practitioners, to switch off the internal broken record of negativity and misinterpretation. This post from Lifehacker by clinical and social psychologist Alice Boyes, PhD. features tips for cognitive restructuring as part of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), one of the most effective treatments for common problems like depression, anxiety and eating disorders. Perhaps you won’t be surprised to learn that these techniques include practicing awareness of your thoughts, mindfulness meditation and self-compassion. Sound familiar?
Mindful awareness of what thoughts you’re having is an essential first step in cognitive restructuring.
Cognitive restructuring will help you balance and/or quell those nasty distortions. Now before you go running around telling everyone you have 42 different cognitive distortions, take a moment, take a breath and let it go. Yoga on.
Has yoga helped you be more aware of and maybe help assuage the inner critic?
If you have the time, this is an interesting Google Tech Talk on the Cognitive Neuroscience of Mindfulness Meditation with Phillipe Golden.

Real Time Latency Dashboard
Other products have what I like to call 'Exponential Performance Issues' because they can't perform basic database type calculations.Anonymous Morgan Stanley
Morgan Stanley was struggling to display real time trade data in a timely manner and complicated infrastructure changes inhibited their ability to produce comprehensive weekly reports for the senior management. As a result, dashboards would take more than 30 minutes to update and automated report generation stopped working all together. Creating reports manually was too time consuming to consider on a weekly basis. They needed a dashboard that could display larger amounts of data in a chart and a reporting tool flexible enough to adapt to their complex IT infrastructure.
3Forge AMI allows Morgan Stanley to display millions of data points in a single chart. Users can zoom in and the resolution is increased in a similar fashion to Google maps. In addition, because of the custom configurability of the data integration layer, all reporting was changed to 3Forge as well. Thanks to the performance and flexibility of 3Forge AMI, Morgan Stanley supplies their traders with real time dashboards for all of their customer's orders. In addition, aggregated reports are produced in the same dashboards. Now Morgan Stanley also uses 3Forge AMI as one-stop-shop for all reporting and dashboarding for trade latencies.
The AMI difference
3Forge AMI has helped Morgan Stanley to identify and fix issues that increased latencies at certain times. Once the full set of data was displayed in a single chart, the pattern was recognized and led to a successful investigation of the cause. This has happened several times. In addition, the tool has also allowed Morgan Stanley to rapidly respond to customer concerns about trade issues, such as stuck orders, and Morgan Stanley exceeded their expectations around transparency. Their goal to provide latency statistics to their trade managers and customers is now a reality. As a result, Morgan Stanley is able to maintain their position as the fastest trading platform on the street.

Finding the absolutely perfect home—then being able to afford—may be every Portland home seeker’s dream accomplishment, but absolute perfection in any realm usually remains exactly that: attainable in a dream, but nowhere else.
In fact, online mortgage site HSH.com surveyed homeowners and found a tiny 20% of the home owning population had zero complaints about their current digs. Sixteen percent wanted a larger place; 9%, more closet space. Lower percentages wanted more natural light, lower maintenance costs, another bathroom, or a swimming pool. Interestingly, about a quarter of respondents wished they had done more research on their new neighborhood…or neighbors.
Although the pollsters didn’t give a clear report on how many considered neighbors the biggest problem, it’s certainly true that issues with neighbors can add unnecessary stress for you or your family. It’s rare to find people who actually decide to abandon ship because of neighbor problems; much more commonly, Portland metro area homeowners just learn to live with them. But rather than accept that burden, psychologists prescribe a number of ways to try to address such problems. At least four approaches can be worth a try:
- Get in Touch. Rather than sit and stew, communicate. It can be hard to remember that even unreasonable neighbors are people, too. They make mistakes, and sometimes behave in ways they assume to be perfectly normal, but which are viewed by everyone else on the planet as out of line. Remember, they aren’t mind-readers; it’s not likely they view what they are doing the same way you do. Unless they are truly aggressive, they just need to get a glimpse of how their behavior is coming across. If you fail to tell them that you don’t appreciate their guests parking in your driveway, it will continue to happen.
- Speak Calmly. Human beings have a tendency to sub-consciously mirror body language—including things like tone of voice and word choice. In the same way that seeing a person smile makes you want to smile, too, if you wait until you are boiling mad before you confront your neighbor, you’re more likely to assume an aggressive posture (stand too close, ball your hands into fists, point with your fingers, etc.)—and earn a similar response in return. That’s how real street fights begin, and they can result in greater problems than your neighbor’s “borrowing” your newspaper!
- Keep a Record. Even if this is your very first time talking to your neighbor about their dog’s midnight Barkapalooozas, it’s helpful to keep a record of your conversations. Since this might not be the last time, email yourself a summary of each interaction—one that includes what you discussed, and the response (“Okay.” “I’ll get right on that.” “Take a hike!” and so on). In case problems linger or multiply, being clear in your own mind about the specifics will strengthen your position. When you are absolutely certain where things stand, you will be able to keep your cool much more reliably.
- Praise Your (No-Longer Difficult) Portland Neighbor. If you ask your neighbor to change his or her behavior, don’t just leave it at that. Let them know that you’ve noticed and appreciate the change. Most people value recognition of their efforts, and praise makes it more likely to be continued. If your Portland neighbor is a relatively reasonable person, it may be easier than you’d think to nurture an open and friendly future relationship—it certainly can’t hurt to try.

Chicago — Environmental Systems Design, Inc. (ESD), an international designer of high-performance buildings, mission critical facilities, workplaces, and health, science and education environments, created a new Intelligent Building Group dedicated to helping clients navigate the maze of intelligent building options and solutions. ESD offers services such as conceptual planning, building and workplace optimization strategies, and master integration services. The new team, which brings decades of experience to the task, is led by ESD President Kurt Karnatz.
“Intelligent buildings are central to any complex real-estate strategy, and they create outcomes that benefit all stakeholders,” Mr. Karnatz noted. “Owners, operators, occupants and visitors are all seeing the positive effects of intelligent buildings today and will enjoy them even more in the future.”
ESD’s intelligent building work has already touched major companies, and as more stakeholders embrace the business case for intelligent buildings’ economic, environmental and experiential outcomes, this number will quickly rise. Operating and maintenance costs drop. Energy expenses fall while building sustainability increases. Occupant satisfaction, comfort and control jumps. Overall, these outcomes spur tenant demand, heighten competitive advantage and enhance assets.
Examples of intelligent buildings are increasing all around. In the retail space, rentals are becoming dynamic. Thanks to sensor technology, mall owners can now charge tenants based on how many visitors they drive in front of stores rather than by a square-foot contract. In the hospitality industry, customers check in to hotels via their mobile devices, and their “key” resides on their screen – they never need to go to the front desk.
According to David Clute, a leader in the field of intelligent buildings who joined ESD in February as a Vice President, “The idea of intelligent buildings has been around since the 1980s, but it’s taken off in the last five years because of the ubiquity of Wi-Fi, the Internet of Things, secure networks and the availability of cost-effective building sensors. We’re literally at the threshold of the long-term potential of intelligent buildings.” | <urn:uuid:de68ff7e-ca14-499d-9493-a71f6684f8fb> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://csengineermag.com/esd-establishes-intelligent-building-group/ | 2020-10-01T16:22:53Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600402131777.95/warc/CC-MAIN-20201001143636-20201001173636-00798.warc.gz | en | 0.951144 | 433 |
This a modern pilgrim to Mexico’s Basilica of Guadalupe, crossing the flanks of Popocatepetl volcano on the way across Cortes Pass (the name of the route Hernan Cortes took through the mountains to the Aztec capital in the 16th century–allegedly Cortes sent someone up to the volcano’s crater for sulfur to replenish his gunpowder supply).
It’s not a truly medieval image–the conquistadores came after that period of European history–but this tweeted image has the flavor of what medieval life must have been like for everyone back in the day.
Yes, right down to the hoodie.
There is nothing like this chapter of living history in the US or Canada–and, since Europe has moved on over the centuries, it is only preserved in Latin America today.
What a world of human treasure still exists in the New World!
Writing update: Am readying the two books to send in to the Copyright Office and looking forward to January 10th! As for this blog, of course I’ll check in with any huge news but am only keeping a more-or-less daily eye on Popocatepetl and probably won’t update that page until after the 10th, unless there is a major change in activity–right now, it is more active than usual, but CENAPRED is keeping the alert level at Yellow Phase 2. | <urn:uuid:b8c11d09-5ed4-4aea-bb0c-d83ac7fe8996> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://flighttowonder.com/2018/12/11/a-pilgrim/ | 2020-10-01T16:09:06Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600402131777.95/warc/CC-MAIN-20201001143636-20201001173636-00798.warc.gz | en | 0.941595 | 299 |
I’m feeling lazy and slightly sleep deprived this Friday morning, so I thought I’d serve up a post filled with neat links I’ve found around the ol’ net. They are writing related of course.
I hope you enjoy,
To the interwebs!
From a friend of mine (Thanks Bruce!) and the fine folks at io9, there is a great article about 10 types of writer’s block. Now I advocate the belief that there is no such thing as writer’s block, and that still stands, but the article lists 10 situations you might find yourself into while writing and gives suggestions to claw yourself out of that particular funk.
I’m a particular fan of #2 and #10 right now. Especially #2 as I’m trying to brainstorm a new project for November and it’s not going well. It’s early and I have hope. As for #10, well, that’s because I really hate revision.
November is coming fast, and that means NaNoWriMo! Chuck Wendig at Terribleminds.com brings us a list of thoughts he has about the month of November. It’s all delivered in the traditional Chuck Wendig style that I have come to love.
I’m a big fan of NaNoWriMo and can say nothing but good things, but I think he’s dead on. I’ve moved past the stage where NaNoWriMo is the end all and be all of writing. I may “need” the artificial deadline, but 50K isn’t enough. I know I can vomit 50K in a month, and this summer I did 100K in two months. Now I need to do it all year long, and do it well. Quantity is important when you start, quality is paramount when you want to move past starting and actually sell stuff.
We have to remember that for those of us who want to be writers, NaNoWriMo is a means to an end. It is only a tool, one of many. It’s funny because the major issue I have with Revenant is how to turn a 50K story into an 80K novel. This November I fully intend to begin a third novel, that is a goal. I want to have three full drafts in play when I start to submit Revenant. I want to submit Revenant, then start editting my summer novel, then work on a new project, followed by editting whatever I write this winter, submit my summer’s novel, edit last project…see how that goes? There’s always something in play. If I do my job write (see what I did there? Ok, I know, I promised. Sorry.) then something will sell eventually and I will also be following the cardinal rule:
This is paramount.
So do NaNoWriMo and succeed! Do it, but learn from my mistake: FINISH your story. Do NOT stop on November 30th if your novel isn’t finished.
A big part of what I enjoy as a fantasy/sci-fi writer is that I AM A GOD! Really, I am. I create whole worlds for my stories. I don’t just set the stage, I build the damn thing from scratch. It’s fun, that’s what it is.
What it is not is easy. I’ve enjoyed Orson Scott Card’s “How to write science fiction and fantasy” and the tips he gives on world building. While idly surfing for more on the subject of creating worlds, I came with this link. Patricia C. Wede’s World Builder Questions is a great set of things to consider when you are in a godlike mood. (Note: The site does not belong to Patricia C. Wede, it is a page compiled from her postings on FIDONET)
I recent discovered K.M. Weiland’s Word Play podcast. They are weekly 5-6 minute chunks of solid writing advice from an experienced writer. You won’t find any big revelations in here, but it’s all good stuff.
Enjoy the links above, comment and suggest more and most of all, write if you want to write.
If you’re reading this site because you know me or know a writer, know that we appreciate your support and keep reading! | <urn:uuid:a9584562-5c40-4d55-8641-dfc310dda31b> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://frankcote.com/2011/10/07/friday-link-fest/ | 2020-10-01T16:40:45Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600402131777.95/warc/CC-MAIN-20201001143636-20201001173636-00798.warc.gz | en | 0.950286 | 935 |
The power of colour can be its drawback. It is easy to misuse colours and mislead rather than inform. This is why Jacques Bertin (1967) only considered the use of colour as a last resort. In his own words:
“The author has the reputation of being against colour. I am indeed against colour when it masks incompetence; when it allows the superimposition of characteristics to the point of absurdity; when people believe it capable of representing ordered data; for as long as it wastes public funds; by confusing knowledge with publicity; and for as long it is manipulated by the media to convey false and illegible images” (p. 222)
Saturated colours are problematic
Colour saturation is defined as the ‘pureness’ in hue. In more technical terms, a fully saturated hue is achieved when just one wavelength is emitted from the visual spectrum of light and is not contaminated by any other wavelength.
To reduce the saturation of a hue, you can add the hue’s complement.
Saturated red is the worse hue of all. We perceived anything information that is coloured red as being more important than any other colour. To demonstrate this point, Cleveland and McGill (1983) showed the following two maps to random groups of people:
The map of Nevada was equally divided into two parts. In the left-hand side map, half of Nevada is shown with high-saturation red and other half in green colour. On average, 49% of people said that the red area was larger, 22% that green was larger, and 31% that the two areas looked about the same size. When they switched to the low-saturation brighter colors on the right-hand side map, there was no distortion in perception that the areas are indeed about the same.
Evolutionary psychology suggests that hues can also be perceived to having a qualitative meaning. For example, too much exposure to the red hue may cause increased blood pressure hence it may lead to overstatement or overreaction. Colours may also carry cultural meanings, e.g. red in China carries the meaning of celebration and good luck, but in the western world red carries the meaning of warning or danger.
Colour blindness is the limited capacity or total impairment in seeing certain colour hues or differences in colours. There are different forms of colour blindness, with achromatopsia being the most severe form of total colour blindness. Achromatopsia is however rare.
Colour blindness is genetically predisposed, and the genes responsible are on the X chromosome. Women have two X chromosomes which means that a deficient X chromosome can be compensated by the other. Males have only one X chromosome and if it is deficient then it leads to colour blindness.
As explained in the discussion about colour hue, humans have three receptor cones in the retina for receiving short-wavelengths (S-cones, responsible for blue), medium-wavelengths (M-cones, responsible for green), and long-wavelengths (L-cones, responsible for red).
The most common form of colour blindness is red–green, meaning that certain individuals have lost entirely or have limited ability to use their M-cone or L-cone and therefore cannot tell the difference between red and green. For individuals of Northern-European descent, 8% of male and 0.5% of females are red-green colour blind.
Thus, there is a good chance that whoever is reading your graph (e.g. a manager or a customer) is red-green colour blind. This is why we never combine red and green in the same graph.
To understand the extend of the problem, for those who can see the full spectrum of colour hues, here is how red-green colour blind people see colours: | <urn:uuid:26e2ecca-2d80-4cd2-8df8-c5fe3ee3c01a> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://graphworkflow.com/decoding/colour/ | 2020-10-01T16:16:24Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600402131777.95/warc/CC-MAIN-20201001143636-20201001173636-00798.warc.gz | en | 0.951518 | 777 |
Love is a gift that is meant to be expressed. Love is not love until it is given away. Love is a gift and must be received if it is to be known. God is love and unless one has received God into their life then they have never known unconditional love. Jesus Christ loved us and died for us when we were His enemies and when we had no love for Him. His love was not conditional on our love for him.
Just as love can be lost, love also can be found. Those who find love, that is, true unconditional love, are never the same. Love changes a person. Love brings life to the spirit, soul and body of the one who finds love. Love is meant to be experienced. This is what it means to “know” love.
When Adam and Eve ate of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil the Lord said that they would die. The Bible says that the sin brings death. Man earned death when he sinned.
Love is to be with the one whom you love. A person’s presence is one of the greatest gifts that they can give to the one whom they love. The Lord gave Eve to be with Adam.
When Adam and Eve sinned the Lord did not express any anger with them. He did not take it personally. He did not do anything wrong but it was Adam and Eve that had done wrong. The Lord asked questions. This is a great example of how a parent should be.
Love seeks restoration of the relationship and reconciliation between those in the relationship. When Adam and Eve sinned and the fellowship with God was broken the Lord immediately began seeking restoration by promising a provision to allow them to be reconciled to Him. The seed which would come through the woman would be the Messiah who would bring restoration. This is the first promise concerning Jesus Christ.
Love does not keep an account of the wrong done nor does love reward according to our wrongs. When Adam and Eve sinned the Lord could have turned His back on them. He made it clear to them that they were not to eat of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil and yet, they went against Him and ate. The first consequence of their sin was that they were naked.
When Adam and Eve sinned in the garden then they brought a curse on themselves. The curse was the consequence of their disobedience and if they will not fight it but submit to the new boundary, which the curse brought, then it would keep them from sinning some more which would bring even more curses. Sin brings a curse. To be set free from the curse someone else had to take the curse that Adam and Eve brought on themselves by their own sin.
When Adam and Eve lived in the garden before they sinned they heard God’s voice. It was the voice of comfort and the voice of a loving God who cared for them. They exchanged the voice of a loving God to hear the voices of their own accusations. When the love is gone in relationships then blame and accusations come in. Where there is sin there will also be blame and accusations.
When Adam and Eve were in the garden of Eden before they sinned they did not need any rules other than the one that the Lord had given to them. They loved God and they loved each other. Their love was perfect for God and for each other because their hearts were pure. They had never known any evil. | <urn:uuid:8857137a-3e18-406d-9d9e-0b64d64f9d9c> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://howtofindandkeeplove.com/tag/marriagelove/page/5/ | 2020-10-01T16:07:53Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600402131777.95/warc/CC-MAIN-20201001143636-20201001173636-00798.warc.gz | en | 0.988796 | 700 |

Studies draw attention to gender inequalities in land tenure. While some insist that gender inequalities in land tenure exists others do not. This paper discusses a study that examined gender issues in customary land ownership in the Wa Municipality. It sought to understand and find ways of bridging the gender gaps, if any. A survey covering 151 respondents comprising Chiefs, Tendamba, women and family heads was undertaken. The research revealed significant disparities between men and women regarding access to and ownership of land. Only 38% of female respondents owned land as compared to 68% of the male respondents. This was mainly attributed to the patrilineal system of inheritance. It also revealed that the inequality in access to land was due to financial constraint and, rapid urbanization as well as the high illiteracy rate among women. A number of recommendations have been made for enhancing women’s access and ownership of customary land in the Wa Municipality and for promoting gender inclusiveness

During the recent election campaign President Obama had it both ways. He would go from campaign stop to campaign stop announcing that he supports the construction of the final segment of the Keystone pipeline (the segment going from mid-Oklahoma to the Gulf of Mexico) without mentioning to build that part of the pipeline no federal permission was needed.
On the other hand he made the progressive environmentalists happy by withholding Federal blessing for the only part of the pipeline that needs his approval. The approximately 50 yards of the north to south pipeline which crosses the Canadian/US international border. Once that segment is approved the pipeline could take the Canadian oil down to the gulf where it will be refined.
The Keystone pipeline would create thousands of additional jobs in construction and refining the new energy. It would also help to stabilize oil prices that will enable companies that use fossil fuels (that would be almost all of them) to count on cheaper energy for years to come.
The President’s continued delay of this project makes one wonder why he agreed to give Brazilian Owned Oil Company Petrobras up to $10 Billion dollars to look for oil off the Brazilian coast, but prevents the development of the US owned Oil business via the Keystone pipeline from being built. (I am sure the fact that George Soros made a lot of money off the Brazil deal had nothing to do with his decision.
The U.S. State Department finishes this week collecting public reaction to their draft environmental statement on the Keystone XL pipeline it issued in March. Consumer Energy Alliance is a strong advocate for advancing the KXL pipeline as part of an “all of the above” American energy plan. Along with its state based partners, CEA recruited over 300,000 people to petition the U.S. State Department in support of the KXL pipeline. There is a strong support, both in public opinion and among those directly impacted by the pipeline’s construction.
The numbers make the case:
- $5.3 billion is the amount of money TransCanada will invest in the United States to build the Keystone XL pipeline.
- 300,000 is the number of Americans Consumer Energy Alliance and its grassroots partners recruited in April to petition the U.S. State Department in favor of building the Keystone XL pipeline, which would transport up to 830,000 barrels of oil a day to U.S. refineries.
- 50,000 people living along the route of the proposed pipeline who told the U.S. State Department they are in favor of the jobs and energy security created by the Keystone XL project.

Normally, I don’t like to use the word hidden gem, over the last two years every Tom, Dick and Harry has become a hidden gem. This takes away the true meaning of the phrase. Having said that, Louisvale is literally hidden – tucked away in vineyards. If you don’t know better, you would just simply drive by! Instead of calling it a hidden gem I am going to call Louisvale a lucky find! You will see why in a moment or two… So don’t go away!
From an extremely young age, I was wine farm hopping… I could not taste wine unfortunately. My mom would say they will lock her up in jail if she did. I was only allowed to taste at home! 😂 Anyway my earliest memory of going to Louisvale, was when I was about two bricks and a tickey high. Don’t remember much, except being petrified and unable to move when these two or four massive beast (Great Danes) came galloping straight for me, their deep and intimidating barks echoing across the valley.
Fast forward a few good solid years and much has changed since then. Today I am excited in sharing my day out at Louisvale.
Where is Louisvale?
Firstly, let’s discover where Louisvale is! So many people are asking as to where this gorgeous place is. The best is – you don’t even have to travel miles…. It is just before you get to Stellenbosch CBD from Distel side, behind the animal welfare. Traveling on a tranquil and beautiful country road it, is to the left of JC Le Roux. Right… now that we have that out of the way, can we get straight down to business?
Louisvale is absolutely spectacular. The view… well I have no words in describing the view. I guess you will have to go see for yourself. Standing on deck with a glass wall so nothing is blocking your view, you see luscious and well manicured vineyards, the famous Stellenbosch mountains making its way down to Helderberg. Just peeking its head, reminding you not to forget about them is the Franschhoek pass.
Louisvale has been making fine wine for the past 30 years! Did you know that Louisvale are the pioneers of Chardonnay in South Africa? Neither did I!
“Louisvale believes in the “Art of Chardonnay” and we are tirelessly committed to our task of crafting and creating Chardonnay of the highest standard.”
Each and every grape is hand picked during harvest. Every vineyard block is treated individually. Even though the Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon grapes are locally sourced at a neighboring farm, the exact same care and love is repeated keeping true to the character of Louisvale.
Thus so far, Louisvale has won a numerous of prestigious wine awards. Recently won three Golds at the Michaelangelo Awards for its 2018 Chardonnay, and for its Brut and Rose MCC wines. Personally tasted these wines and yes, those awards are truly valid.
Experiencing Louisvale Wines
As I am still struggling with MCC’s… but I can say that it is slowly growing on me. When I was at Wine on the River, I really enjoyed Graham Becks MCC and started to think perhaps there is hope, but Louisvale’s Brut MCC Rose I will give that a 10/10! Firstly, the colour is beautiful… it is a vibrant pink Rosé (Chardonnay Pinot Noir). Immediately on the nose you get freshly crushed strawberries and cherries. On the palate, the bubbles are fine and the foam persistent with flavours that are reminiscent of fresh, crisp red berries.
Louisvale also makes a MCC Brut which is made with 100% Chardonnay. A lovely MCC with fruit and brioche on the nose. You get zesty lemon on the palate, and it is not that… extreme dry, but for me personally I loved the Rosé more.
The Sauvignon Blanc from the Stone Range is gorgeous! It reminded me of the New Zealand styled Sauvignon Blanc I had when I was in the UK or almost similar to the Black Elephant Vintners. Unlike the typical green pepper, green figs or gooseberry flavours you get this beautiful tropical notes coming through on the palate. Very fruity and well balanced in acid. I enjoyed this one so much I had to take some home.
I can easily go on and on about their wines, sadly time doesn’t allow me to continue. If I do then this article will be a Thesis! You will just have to stay tuned or check my Instagram account.
The Louisvale Wine Emporium: From Vine to Design
Hidden so deep in the vineyards you will find an unusually striking building. Due to the design of the building you almost don’t even see it. It is completely hiding from the road.
Let me tell you this building is beautiful. Very different compared to the many buildings in Stellenbosch. I am a sucker for architecture and design. And this one…. well this one…. is full of surprises. Here you will find interesting curves, designs and even history. It is truly a magnificent piece of art!
The designer of the new building is done by the award-winning architect, Christof Albertyn which represents the mixture of African and European building traditions.
Guys, this is what I absolutely loved the most about the design of this venue, is how deep into history they went. They didn’t stop from when the settlers arrived, they went further! Just take a moment and think… who were the original inhabitants of the Cape?
That is right my boozy friends, this breathtakingly beautiful building is inspiration of the very first inhabitants living on Louisvale farm. A Khoisan tribe known as the Khoekhoen. During summer months they lived in Strand / Gordon’s Bay living off Perlemoen and Allekrik.
As it starts to get colder they moved inland, taking with them their dome shaped homes that was made from Taaibos laths, covered with woven reed mats and animal skins. Then fast forward when the settlers arrived the white gabled, Cape Dutch style, had been introduced by European Colonialists in the 17thCentury, and which is the original homestead built in 1924.
More about the design
The Louisvale Wine Emporium is about a marriage of both new and old; joining elements in a contemporary way.
The soft curve of the Rheinzink cladding reflects the shape and surface of the Khoekhoen reed mat hut, supported by curved steel rails, connected by floating glass to the polished concrete floor, infused with chips of Perlemoen shell.
The Rheinzink dome acts as a screen against the strong prevailing South Easter winds and hovers above a low concrete roof plated with Restios. These reeds symbolises the thatched roof of the 1924 built, Neo Cape Dutch style homestead. The new structure connects to the existing building by means of glass roofed passage.
But that is not all my Boozy Darlings, the Rheinzink dome facade hides away in strategic places into organic curved shapes to maximize the views of the distant Cape Folded Mountains. These glazed, cave-like openings on the other hand reflect the shape of the openings in a Perlemoen Shell.
Optical Illusion: A hole in the tree…
You can clearly now see why this venu is a work of art. So much little details all waiting to be discovered.
The restaurant at Louisvale focuses on dishes featuring only on fresh and seasonal produce. Af the seasons changes, so does the Louisvale menu. In actual fact every month it changes, making it rather exciting, fresh and of course mouthwatering.
Executive chef Kirstie du Toit studied at The Culinary Academy (TCA) at Backsberg and comes from a family of bakers and farmers. She and her team working extremely hard in delighting and tantalizing your palate with original and delicious home-made food.
And believe me, it is good! Wholesome Italian and French inspired dishes presented in a rustic way. Your taste buds are in for a party!!
The selections available to choose from on the menu is a good balance. I felt there was enough to give you the feeling of selection but also not too much that you felt overwhelmed and had no idea where to begin.
You can choose to just either just sit back, relax, sip some wine while picking on a meat and cheese platter, or if you like something more hearty, you can have a lamb steak, perhaps something a little more fine dining – a duck confit. There is something for everyone.
My Boozy Foodie Experience at Louisvale
In the end… I chose an ink squid gnocci, with fresh squid, pancetta, and a gorgeous champaign sauce (of course My Boozy Kitchen must choose something with booze in it 😜) please forgive me Kirstie I clean forgot the name of the sauce. And it was the perfect combination. Like I said it was a party in your mouth with everyone having a joll.
One bite and you get the softness of the gnocci, a crunch and saltiness from the pancetta, a taste of the sea from the squid and a perfect balance of acidity from the Champagne sauce. It was heaven!!! I only wished for a piece of crusty bread to soak up the reaming sauce left in my plate.
Presentation – was gorgeous! Love how the Gnocci was purple and matched the stunning stone like purple/blue plate. By the way I love purple and I guess that is why I love Louisvale, even their wine labels are purple. How awesome!! FYI – Jules – this one is for you and whenever you come to SA again for a visit – we are so going here!!
The prices of dishes is at a good price, not cheap but also not too expensive. When you consider all the ingredients, you are getting quality. If you have a family it can work out quite a bit. The food on the menu is also not quite for children. We all know kids are fussy eaters, I have know idea if they have children’s menu, didn’t ask… don’t have any children so it never crossed my mine at the time.
I would say Louisvale is a great date option so perhaps find a baby sitter for the day while you and your partner can just spend some quality time together taking in the peace and quiet. You don’t even hear traffic!!
Oh my….. I almost forgot dessert!!! How can I forget dessert!!! The best ever crispy but chewy center meringues, raspberry coulis, vanilla ice cream with dollops of white chocolate and a sprinkle of pistachio. Hmmmmm decadent, delicious and sublime…. 🤤🤤 I would have licked my plate, but just the thought… I got a virtual klap across the lugs from my mom. My dad though would have been proud!! 😂😂
If you feel like being a thousand miles away, but don’t want to travel far Louisvale is your place! If you are looking for peace and quiet with great food excellent wines Louisvale is your place! Finally if you are looking for a different experience and love architecture – yes you guessed it, Louisvale is your place to be! | <urn:uuid:66f4c268-f79e-42b6-a578-a2816ff9108b> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://myboozykitchen.co.za/louisvale-where-old-meets-new/ | 2020-10-01T15:46:34Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600402131777.95/warc/CC-MAIN-20201001143636-20201001173636-00798.warc.gz | en | 0.957677 | 2,423 |
On Green, Greg Hoy & The Boys create a straight-forward rock track that incorporates hints of 1960s Merseybeat, The Descendents, and Franz Ferdinand Vocals echo boldly out at the top of the song, while the chorus brings infectious vocals alongside taut instrumentation. The bass / drum interactions are punctuated quite nicely through sizzling guitar work. These instruments are able to ratchet up the song’s momentum, ensuring that listeners are firmly planted on the edges of their seats. Cutting things off before the three-minute mark, Greg Hoy & The Boys are able to make a tremendous statement and stoke fan interest considerably.

Governments that impose taxes on carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gas emissions can benefit from a cleaner, more climate-friendly environment and a revenue stream that can be tapped to lower other taxes and create jobs. But environmental taxes may also exact an excessive financial burden on low-income households, which spend a much greater fraction of their budgets than richer households do on heating oil, natural gas, and electricity. This concern has limited the use of green taxes in Spain, where emissions are taxed at levels far below average for the European Union, which seeks to lower emissions across the continent to fulfill its 2015 Paris Agreement climate pledge.
Now a new study by researchers at the MIT Joint Program on the Science and Policy of Global Change, the University of Oldenburg in Germany, and the Basque Center for Climate Change in Spain shows that low-income households in Spain can actually benefit from environmental taxes if revenues are redistributed to all taxpayers. Using a computational model to assess the environmental and economic impacts of a green tax reform policy in which revenues are recycled in equal amounts to households in annual lump-sum payments, the researchers found that the policy significantly reduces emissions without imposing economic hardship on any segment of the population. The study appears in the journal Economics of Energy and Environmental Policy.
“There may be a tradeoff between efficiency and equity in climate policy design,” says Xaquin Garcia-Muros, a co-author of the study and postdoctoral associate at the MIT Joint Program. Noting the perfect can be the enemy of the good, as indicated by the November 2018 Yellow Vest protests against fuel tax hikes in France, he adds, “Governments that seek to introduce environmental policies need to show they can cut emissions equitably in order for the public to support them. Otherwise, climate mitigation measures will be rejected by public opinion, and attempts to tackle climate change will be unsuccessful.”
The proposed policy includes a tax on carbon dioxide (CO2) of 40 euros per metric ton in all sectors (except transportation) not covered by the EU emissions trading system, tax increases on fossil fuels to match the EU average of 1.5 percent of GDP, and economy-wide taxes on air pollutants — nitrogen oxides, (NOx) and sulfur dioxide (SO2) emissions at 1,000 euros/metric ton. In addition, it provides annual lump-sum rebates to private households based on household income.
Combining a “computable general equilibrium” model of the Spanish economy with a “micro-simulation” sub-model that characterizes households of different income levels, the researchers determined the tax reform policy’s impact on pollution levels, energy prices, and household net income. They found that the policy would significantly reduce emissions of CO2 (10 percent), NOx (13 percent) and SO2 (20 percent); produce an estimated 7.3 billion euros in annual revenues; and enable annual lump-sum rebates of 400 euros. Most importantly, the rebates would offset the cost of the green taxes for the bottom half of income levels, with the poorest households receiving an average annual net benefit of 203 euros and the richest paying a net cost of 599 euros.
“We expect similar results in other southern European and public transit-oriented countries,” says Garcia-Muros. “But while results will differ for each country, all can benefit by ensuring that green tax policies accommodate economic inequality.” An earlier MIT Joint Program study showed how this principle can be applied in the design of carbon pricing policies in the United States. | <urn:uuid:6c0b889d-44a8-4caf-811b-1a4f57b0ad11> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://news.mit.edu/2019/balancing-pollution-energy-prices-household-income-0925 | 2020-10-01T17:27:36Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600402131777.95/warc/CC-MAIN-20201001143636-20201001173636-00798.warc.gz | en | 0.938372 | 727 |

Switzerland Schumann, Mahler: Thomas Hampson (baritone), Wolfram Rieger (piano), Théâtre des Nations, Geneva, 13.09.2016. (ALL)
After yesterday’s Manon, it was a nice to return to the same venue with such an enlightening concert. Just before his encores, Thomas Hampson addressed the audience saying that it was also special for him to come back to Geneva after so many years. He said with a smile in the voice that he had met a nice lady who told him she sang in the children chorus of La bohème … some 30 years ago.
Yes, even for an artist like Hampson, there are signs of time passing. Some grey hair on the side and maybe a little less colour in the higher register when singing piano … But the charisma, the warmth and depth of the personality, and much of the quality of the voice has the same commanding presence.
The Schumann song cycle was presented not as Dichterliebe but as songs from the Lyrischen Intermezzo Buch der Lieder’ after Heine, Hampson specifying that it was closer to Schumann’s original text. Once Hampson had settled his voice and along with Wolfram Rieger had found the exact balance with the piano in the Théâtre des Nations, the overall characterisation and care for the words were marvels. The long standing partnership between both artists meant that they could find expressive freedom while being attuned to each other, a sure sign being the piano dynamic larger than what lieder accompanists provide matching Hampson’s range.
The second half gave us the baritone in the repertory he is simply peerless. If the Schumann cycle is mostly from a single person perspective, Mahler’s Des Knaben Wunderhorn are a collection of small operas in miniature where the singer is portraying various roles. These are Mahler’s most theatrical songs. Hampson with his range and expressiveness revelled in them and showed the worlds of depth and imagination there are behind the seemingly simple marches and folk-music Mahler uses. Technically, they fitted him like a glove allowing him to shine in his middle register and requiring less head voice than the Schumann.
Mahler aficionados could make a guess that both artists had listened to the two classic Welte-Mignon Piano Rolls featuring the composer himself and: ‘Ich ging mit Lust durch einen grünen Wald’ and the Fourth Symphony last movement ‘Das himmlische Leben’ as they were following his rubato and care for expressivity.
This was an evening of supreme distinction. The audience was unusually mesmerized and concentrated. Hampson before his encores also explained that this concert was for the benefit of the ‘Gustav Mahler Médiathèque’ – a must see at http://www.mediathequemahler.org/ – established by his friend and ultimate Mahler Scholar Henry-Louis de La Grange to whom he dedicated the two superb encore: ‘Blicke mir nicht in die Lieder!’ and ‘Liebst du um Schönheit’ from the Rückert Lieder.
There will be later many recitals at the Théâtre des Nations from the likes of Camilla Nylund, Christian Gerharer, Karita Mattila, Patricia Petibon but by the time we hear better Mahler singing, we will all be ‘Wo die schönen Trompeten blasen’ and the composer will be conducting. | <urn:uuid:8d2148b0-5f15-4f6a-99b5-5c7348ebc9e5> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://seenandheard-international.com/2016/09/thomas-hampson-excels-in-mahler/ | 2020-10-01T16:20:15Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600402131777.95/warc/CC-MAIN-20201001143636-20201001173636-00798.warc.gz | en | 0.948888 | 769 |
AC Milan have fears over the contract of Suso amid links with Liverpool and Spurs, according to a report.
Suso has established himself as a star at Milan, having been allowed to leave Liverpool in January 2015.
The 24-year-old has been linked with a return to Anfield, while Spurs and Chelsea have also been credited with interest.
According to Calciomercato.com, Milan are beginning to sweat about the situation surrounding the Spaniard.
Club director Leonardo would like to “resolve the issue related to the release clause, set at around €40million”.
Suso currently has a deal at San Siro until 2022, and the Rossoneri hierarchy are scared that a team in the Premier League will pay that clause, with deals such as the €39m Everton paid for Richarlison proving their fears.
Suso and his agent Lucci apparently remain happy with the current deal and clause, and while the player is happy at Milan, his club are still determined to agree a deal with an increased clause due to interest from abroad. | <urn:uuid:bb9d1f46-b020-44fd-841c-fb18cad7583c> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://sempremilan.com/cm-ac-milan-eager-to-resume-talks-with-suso-amid-liverpool-chelsea-links | 2020-10-01T15:33:51Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600402131777.95/warc/CC-MAIN-20201001143636-20201001173636-00798.warc.gz | en | 0.981611 | 221 |
In 2013, the energy reform in Spain resulted in significantly higher energy costs, with a direct impact on the Group's financial results and limitations on the ability of the Spanish mills to be competitive. Now in 2014, a draft ministerial order on the remuneration model for cogeneration has been released that will again have a negative impact on the costs of an energy-intensive industry that relies on CHP to be efficient, save energy and remain competitive in an increasingly global market.
A loss in competitiveness is a key factor for Torraspapel. The relative importance of the Spanish market is decreasing as consumption of the Group's main product line has been reduced by over 50% in the national market between 2008 and 2013. Exports are crucial to maintaining operations for the company, with six manufacturing sites in Spain, resulting in direct employment for over 2,300 and indirect employment for an additional 12,000.
Recent government decisions regarding the economic treatment of CHP are a blow to Torraspapel as well as to a number of other domestic industry players, representing 20% of Spain's GDP. The new measures will force other CHP plants to close, but, more importantly, will result in the closure of other manufacturing plants and losses in financial results that will endanger and paralyze future investment plans. The result will be a significant loss in jobs and a negative impact on the country's economic development.
Torraspapel has invested over 51 million euros over recent years in cogeneration plants focused on improving efficiency and, especially, operating costs at manufacturing sites. The regulation framework has changed nonetheless, ignoring the needs and voice of active industry members. Torraspapel, and the Lecta Group, will be forced to change their strategy, redirecting future investment and production to manufacturing sites better able to compete in the market. | <urn:uuid:54e67293-89b3-4ae9-800b-90409cba78f0> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://technology.risiinfo.com/bio-insight/west-europe/lectas-torraspapel-considers-reorganizing-investments-and-manufacturing-sites-spain-due-changes-spanish-electricity-regulations | 2020-10-01T15:47:20Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600402131777.95/warc/CC-MAIN-20201001143636-20201001173636-00798.warc.gz | en | 0.9529 | 371 |

I wrote the following review of Pedro Costa’s Vitalina Varela for this week’s Cine-File Chicago streaming list. It is a revised/improved version of the introduction I wrote to the interview I conducted with Pedro for Cine-File last fall:
Pedro Costa’s VITALINA VARELA (Portuguese)
Available to rent via the Gene Siskel Film Center here.
Pedro Costa has been one of the world’s most important filmmakers for the past quarter of a century. It was therefore surprising that it wasn’t until last year that one of his films, VITALINA VARELA, won the top award at a major festival (Locarno). This deserved honor, coupled with theatrical distribution from the enterprising Grasshopper Films in the U.S., has thankfully upped the great Portuguese director’s profile even further. Over the course of his career, Costa’s unique, poetic style of filmmaking has evolved from working with full screenplays and professional actors (French movie stars Isaach De Bankole and Edith Scob appear in 1994’s CASA DE LAVA) to casting non-professionals to portray some version of themselves (notably Cape Verdean immigrants living in working-class neighborhoods in Lisbon — including Fontainhas, the systematic destruction of which was captured in the director’s 2000 masterpiece IN VANDA’S ROOM). Along the way there have been side trips into documentary filmmaking proper (WHERE DOES YOUR HIDDEN SMILE LIE? and CHANGE NOTHING both document the working lives of artists Costa admires: filmmaking team Straub/Huillet and chanteuse/actress Jeanne Balibar, respectively). VITALINA VARELA, however, feels like something of an apotheosis for Costa — his work in its purest form. Taking its title from the protagonist (and the actress who plays her), VITALINA VARELA is literally the darkest and, arguably, most beautiful film he has yet made. No one knows how to light and frame images like Costa; where most directors film daytime interiors by framing actors against windows, and thus shooting into the light, Costa nearly always frames his subjects against the walls of dark, cave-like interiors, allowing them to be illuminated only by the light entering from windows on the room’s opposite side. Of course, the resulting painterly images would not count for much if Costa’s cinematographic eye wasn’t also focused on a compelling subject. Enter Vitalina Varela, a Cape Verdean woman whose sad story of attempting to join her husband in Portugal after having spent decades apart, but tragically arriving just three days after his death, was first recounted during her brief appearance in Costa’s previous film, 2014’s HORSE MONEY. The lead in that movie, Ventura, returns here in a supporting role as the priest of a ramshackle church whose congregation has long abandoned him – a powerful incarnation that, as Costa has acknowledged, evokes performances from cinema’s history as disparate as Claude Laydu in THE DIARY OF A COUNTRY PRIEST and Joel McCrea in STARS IN MY CROWN. But this show ultimately belongs to Vitalina Varela, whose striking physicality and dramatic sotto voce line readings make her one of the most remarkable screen presences of any movie in recent years. Watching this beautiful and resilient woman contend with a crumbling ceiling while taking a shower or, in a ravishing sequence worthy of John Ford, repairing her roof in a windstorm, constituted an authentic religious experience for this viewer.

Basement flooding is a common issue for homes that are located on flat costal lands. Sump pumps are installed in the newly constructed basements of the houses to prevent over flooding or water damages in home. They have been especially designed to remove excess water from a region which is more prone to flooding therefore it is necessary to keep the pump in a functional state. These machines come in varying shapes, sizes and capacities depending upon your space.
In case you are residing in rural regions of Illinois, it is extremely important for you to search for the best sump pumps in Downers Grove village because this region receives rainfall all throughout the year.
A sump pump is an especially designed low pressure pumping device that circulates water from one location to another. They comprise of an encased impeller driven by an engine or a motor, an inlet and outlet for water as well as pipes that are connected to underlying ditches. They comprise of a switch that turns on automatically in the presence of water. The device fails to pull water and circulate it to faraway locations.
These pumps come in two varieties- the portable models and the fixed installation models. They may be electrically powered or gas-powered and are commonly used at construction sites.
With time, these devices become dirty due to accumulation of salts, dirt and dust. Excess accumulation of contaminants affects its pumping capacity and it becomes important to clean it. Instead of searching for professionals how clean sump pumps in Downers Grove, you should try to do it yourself.
Mentioned below are some tips for the same:
– Connect your garden hose to a nearby water valve and link it with a spray nozzle. Spray fresh water on the external parts of the pump and remove mud particles deposited on its surface.
– If the device is covered with grime, you can use a mild cleaning solution for cleaning it. Mix 1 tablespoon bleach with 1 gallon warm, distilled water. Now, using a scrub brush or a water towel soaked in water, wash the pumping device. Thereafter, rinse it with cold water.
– Leave the pump under sun for drying. While the pump dries by itself, you can clean the sump basin indoors. Spray cleaning solution at the sides of sump basin. You may scrub it using a sponge or brush.
– If the basin is filled with filthy water, you may use a secondary wet or dry vacuum pump to suck the water out. Clean the basin with scrub dipped in bleaching powder solution. Once the entire area gets clean, you can reinstall the pump.
– Reattach the pump with the discharge pipe and switch it on. Test the pump.
Use sufficient quantities of bleach solution for activating the pump so that it can clean the interior mechanism as well.
In case you’re facing difficulties in cleaning the device, you can view video tutorials on YouTube or seek advice from expert cleaners of sump pumps in Downers Grove.

ETLJB 16 November 2012 - Shortly after the enactment of the new labour code for East Timor on 20 December 2011, the national parliament enacted the strike law on 16 January 2012. It was promulgated by the President of the Republic on 17 February 2012 and came into force on that date . The following is an extract from the preamble:
"The recent approval of the Labour Law marked the beginning of the process of conformation of the new legal framework regulating labour relations in Timor-Leste. In furtherance of this process, and in compliance with article 51 of the Constitution, the present law approves the legal regime for the exercise of the right to strike. In accordance with the constitutional text, the law shall define and prohibit lock out and shall provide for sanctions applicable to it, in addition to establishing other guarantees aimed at protecting workers from any conduct limiting the exercise of their right to strike.
The legal framework defined by the present law takes into account the different interests at stake and attempts to find a balanced and proportional solution by establishing vital moderating rules for the growth of the economy and the dynamisation of labour relations in the country.
The full text of the unofficial English translation of the strike law may be read here.

FIX may yet be the Alpha and Omega of post-trade messaging
Capital markets participants may be able to achieve significant cost savings by making greater use of the FIX Protocol, according to a new study by post-trade specialists Alpha Omega Financial Systems.
FIX is a messaging standard developed 20 years ago as a way to achieve better communication between the buy-side and the sell-side and the exchanges. Proponents of FIX argue that it has transformed trade execution and helped to promote a shift towards real time performance measurement. The argument now is that FIX could provide dramatic improvements in efficiency by making the exchange of information more standardised.
In 2010, a group of buy-side firms formed a working group to establish best practices for a post-trade standard based on FIX. The idea is to use the standard to provide bilateral matching directly between the asset manager and the broker-dealer. Execution and allocation details would be transmitted from an order management system to the post-trade system and on to the counterparty immediately after trade execution. The hope is to support both straight-through processing and a shift to a near real time post-trade process.
Supporters of this idea also argue that FIX supports granular, field by field matching, including standing settlement instructions, which help to make post-trade processes more robust. In the event of a mismatch, both counterparties would be alerted of the specific fields that mismatched, and traders would have the chance to resolve the discrepancy while the markets are still open. According to Alpha Omega, the reduction in post-trade processing time would be a huge contributor to reducing settlement cycles to T+2 and even T+1. This is significant because the European Union countries are moving to T+2 settlement in January, while the DTCC is also consulting on a move to T+2 in the US. Alpha Omega adds that the FIX messaging standard itself has spawned several further FIX networks and vendor systems that collectively have helped to minimise the risk of a single point of failure, reduce costs for investors and drive innovation.
In the US market, one of the spurs for greater use of FIX in post-trade is that most institutional trades in US equities are confirmed, affirmed and transmitted to the DTCC through a single vendor. According to Alpha Omega, that represents technology risk because it creates a single point of failure for the entire US equity market. The argument is that trade execution technology consists of multiple vendor systems that can interoperate using FIX, creating a distributed technology model that can mitigate the risk if one of the systems or networks fails. The point is that FIX-based post-trade would use the same distributed architecture as trade execution, in theory cutting down on the risks.
“A number of large, global asset managers have identified post-trade as an area where they are looking to improve efficiencies, reduce costs and capture more alpha,” said Ignatius John, president at Alpha Omega and author of the report. “Similar to the transition in trade execution, the efforts of these early adopters is driving the industry’s migration towards FIX for post-trade. FIX-based post-trade will further advance STP, enabling traders to allocate, confirm and affirm their trades in near real time. In addition, the FIX Protocol’s open architecture will allow for the continued development of innovative post-trade solutions, both internally built and vendor-provided.” | <urn:uuid:fd5ba14e-d6b3-40f9-bceb-d8ff6328a1ef> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://www.fintechfutures.com/2014/08/fix-may-yet-be-the-alpha-and-omega-of-post-trade-messaging/ | 2020-10-01T16:38:56Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600402131777.95/warc/CC-MAIN-20201001143636-20201001173636-00798.warc.gz | en | 0.951995 | 691 |

How cells degrade aberrant membrane proteins
Researchers from Heidelberg University’s Center for Molecular Biology (ZMBH) have achieved unexpected insights into the process of how damaged proteins are degraded within cells. Their work focused on the function of a special protease.
This enzyme can hydrolyse peptide bonds in the plane of cellular membranes, a site where such water-requiring reactions commonly do not occur. The scientists working with Dr. Marius Lemberg could now show that this unusual protease recognises and degrades aberrant proteins directly in the membrane. The findings were published online in “Molecular Cell”.
When the research team around Dr. Lemberg started its work on a member of these special proteases they predicted by computational approaches that this enzyme would be active. However, they still faced the challenge to experimentally determine the physiological substrates. “The existing knowledge about relatives from the so-called rhomboid protease family did not help us in our quest for the molecules processed by the enzyme we discovered”, says Dr. Lemberg. Unlike all rhomboid proteases that had been studied so far, the new rhomboid localises to the Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER), the site in the cell where new membrane proteins are produced.
The breakthrough came after the researchers observed that the ER rhomboid protease is increasingly needed during protein folding stress. Proteins are produced as long chains of amino acids that have to correctly fold into a three-dimensional structure to fulfil their function. Especially when accumulating, misfolded proteins can severely damage cells and are known to cause impairments such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease.
“We now have revealed that the ER rhomboid protease cleaves aberrant membrane proteins within their membrane anchor”, says Dr. Lemberg. Furthermore, the scientists demonstrated that this protease cooperates directly with components of the so-called ER-associated degradation (ERAD) pathway to dispose of the faulty protein. According to Dr. Lemberg, these new insights now provide the basis for a molecular understanding of how membrane proteins that make up a large fraction of cellular proteins are extracted from these membranes for degradation without getting into each other’s way.
The junior research group of Dr. Lemberg is part of the DKFZ-ZMBH Alliance – the strategic cooperation between the German Cancer Research Center (DKFZ) and the Heidelberg University's Center for Molecular Biology (ZMBH) – as well as of the interdisciplinary Network Aging Research (NAR) at Ruperto Carola. The group receives funding from the Baden-Württemberg Foundation.

Spring is only three short days away, friends! Who else loves the spring/summer months the most?
I’ve been working the past few months to really get back on track with my diet and exercise routine with the help from the BodySculpting Colorado Springs … mostly diet, because I’ve always loved and made the physical aspect part of my weekly lifestyle. But, honestly, the food train had seriously gotten derailed, you guys. One minute you’re watching everything that goes into your mouth and the next you’ve started cleaning your kid’s plate for them. Yikes! Happens to the best of us, right?
Well, I’m happy to report that I’m back on track again and feeling better than ever these days! by following my keto diet plan from Diet plan expert Keto Balanced. I’ve had so many of you guys ask me over on Instagram what all I’m doing these days in this area.
A year or two ago I started Faster Way to Fat Loss and it really changed the way I thought about eating. On the program I discovered intermittent fasting, which has since become a real buzz word, so you’ve probably heard of it. It involves windows of time that you allow your body some digestive rest time, AKA eating nothing over 50 calories (black coffee is ok!). I suit all my meals to vegan shakes to digest quickly ans also good for poeple that have food intolerance. Consider it easy to make and ready in minutes! While it was a bit scary at first, I quickly learned that I really thrived on it! I can be a bit of a structured person when it comes to diet, so I loved knowing my exact fasting beginning and ending times each day. To start, that meant putting down the fork at 7pm each night and not picking it back up until noon the following day, which gave me a seventeen hour fasting window. Here you will find the best place to buy Sarms. crazy bulks top products and stacks (premium legal steroids without side effects) helps men and women experience great muscle results, astonishing body transformation, strength, bigger physique and awesome power. You can know more about my My Body Life checks out here.
Now, that doesn’t just mean I eat whatever I want when it’s time for a meal. There is some carb cycling involved that kept my body ‘guessing’ and in fat burning mode. But, over time, and on some days, I’ve been able to stretch out that fasting time a bit longer and once a week I’ll do a 24 hour fast. Again, scary at first, but it definitely gets easier, promise!
So, because so many of you have asked, here’s what a typical eating day might look like for me.
My one coffee for the day. I go for iced cold brew with a splash of almond milk and stevia.
1 or 2pm
Typically, this is the time I eat some type of lean protein and a green vegetable. I’ve been binging pretty hard on these from Target lately. I love the convenience and no added sugar on the ingredient list.
Some type of small snack to get me through until dinner. (fruit, nuts, yogurt, cheese, etc.)
With Pete’s food restrictions for his heart and diabetes condition, our meals are always SUPER simple at home. Chicken, fish, turkey (no red meat), a green vegetable (broccoli or green beans typically) and some nights brown rice or whole wheat thin pasta. Read this interesting blood sugar formula review to learn more
(A few things on our regular rotation include ground turkey tacos, ground chicken spaghetti, chicken marinated and put on the grill, BBQ chicken pizza on a thin crust and a baked whole chicken.)
As a general rule, I try to finish all eating by 7pm each night and let my body do some digestive resting.
And while this schedule might seem to be a bit restrictive, please understand that this is what a ‘good day’ looks like for me. There are always those days that I let loose a little and be more flexible depending on what’s going on! There are always exceptions, guys, but I find if I stick with this schedule MOST days, I feel energized and so much better, physically.
As far as the workouts go, I really love switching it up throughout the week. Every week I make sure to make it to my regular weight classes twice a week and do night runs in my neighborhood. Those are definites for me. Weight training and running are my favorite activities, by far. The rest of the week may include a weight session with Sabrina, my personal trainer and/or a class at my local Orange Theory Fitness.
Thankfully, because I love being physically active, the looseness of my workout schedule has never really been an issue for me. I honestly find that when I’ve been away from it for more than a couple of days, I quickly get the itch to get back to it, and I even have use some great supplements for this that hel me improve my physical performance, have a peek at this article to find which supplements I’m talking about. I guess it’s just become a habit over the years.
Soooo, the long and short of it for me lately has been 90% diet related. At this point in my life, I find that I HAVE to really watch this area or I quickly get off track with where I want to be. No magic pill, unfortunately. Just really watching the intake, doing some fasting, and staying active is what works for me.
Ok, so that’s it, in a nutshell, guys! What questions do you all have for me that I didn’t cover? Let me know below or shoot me an email! I’d love to hear from you!

Colfiorito di Foligno
Colfiorito is a mountain village in the municipality of Foligno (PG). The village is situated on a vast plateau at an altitude of 781m above sea level along the State Road 77 of Val di Chienti that connects Foligno to Macerata.
The karst plateau is the result of the drainage of seven lake basins, of which only the swamp remains. Since 1995, a major boost has been given to environmental tourism with the establishment of a regional nature park. The Colfiorito swamp is the most significant part.
Historically, the plateau is known for the cultivation of red potatoes and lentils, which are also sold directly by small producers, constantly present along State road 77. Significant presence of breeders and companies for the production of dairy products.
During the summer, the Red Potato Festival attracts many tourists and gourmets from Umbria and Marche.
On Good Friday there is a procession of the Dead Christ, very evocative and of ancient tradition. Also from Lent belongs a popular song of the Passion, which a group of singers spontaneously aggregated in the streets of the country or neighboring towns, until the ’60s, now only by invitation.
• Church of Santa Maria di Pistia (or Plestia), (V century), is a Christian Church in Proto-Romanesque style
• Castle of Colfiorito (1269).
• Castelliere del Monte Orve.
• Molinaccio, the remains of an ancient mill fed by marsh water that flows into a natural sink.
• Botte dei Varano, a collector for draining water from the plateau, builted at the end of the fifteenth century.
• Archaeological Museum “Umbri Plestini”.
• Naturalistic Museum of the Park of Colfiorito.
• Convent of Brogliano
The Colfiorito swamp is characterized by the many disciplines of vegetation complexes. In this scenery of extreme beauty you can easily observe the white water lily, the palmata orchid, the aquatic orchid, the Portuguese Colchico, the greater lysca and many other flowers. In addition to the botanical aspects, the biodiversity of the swamp is determined by the wealth of the fauna community.
The swamp, in fact, due to the very high presence of sedentary and migratory birds, is the most important bird system.
The surveys conducted by specialists have shown that the number of species of breeding and/or wintering birds is very high (more than 100) and that many species are considered rare or threatened in their European airplane. Investigations have also shown that the multitude of waterfowl is particularly connected to migration periods, thus marking the swamp as an important resting place in the Apennines during seasonal movements. In particular, among the most important birds are two: the Bittern (Botarius stellaris), which has lived and nested for a long time in the Reedbed and Scriptures (with up to 25 specimens), whose state of conservation is considered “critical” throughout Europe, the Swallow (hirubdo rustica), migrator nesting par excellence and Passeriform typical of the traditional agricultural landscape in autumn, finds in the Reed one of the largest dormitories in Italy.
Other species which exalt the biological and faunal diversity of the swamp, belong then to the variegated reign of the small Vertebrates, such as Girls, Frogs, Newts, Aphids and to that of the Iinvertebrates, such as Coleopterans, Lebellular Butterflies, Tricopters. The fauna diversity of the swamp, however, is not limited only to animals related to water, but also affects animals that, although characteristic of terrestrial Apennine environments, regularly attend the mosaic of habitat of the ecotonal zone, such as: Grey Cornacchia, Jay, Ortolano and Robin (Passeriformes); Buzzard and Lodaiolus (Diurnal birds of prey); Porcupine, Fox, Badger, Weasel and Boar (Mammals). | <urn:uuid:da5648a5-19e7-4252-ba83-4d6ad6fda2d4> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://www.lietasosta.it/colfiorito/?lang=en | 2020-10-01T16:59:18Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600402131777.95/warc/CC-MAIN-20201001143636-20201001173636-00798.warc.gz | en | 0.925699 | 866 |
