Having an Anaesthetic
Most patients having an operation need an anaesthetic to keep them comfortable. This pamphlet will tell you about anaesthesia so you will know what to expect. Please feel free to ask questions at any time.
Before your anaesthetic
In the pre-admission clinic you may meet an anaesthesiologist. He or she will talk to you about your health and your anaesthetic. The anaesthesiologist you have on the day of your surgery may not be the anaesthesiologist you meet in the clinic.
It is important that you inform the pre-admission anaesthesiologist about all your health problems. If needed, tests will be ordered for you. For your safety tell the anaesthesiologist about all the drugs that you take including alcohol and other drugs. This is a good time to stop smoking.
Types of anaesthetic you may have
The kind of anaesthetic that you may receive depends on your operation and your health. If you prefer a certain number of anaesthetic, please tell your anaesthesiologist.
Under general anaesthesia, you are ‘asleep’ or unconscious. Anaesthetic drugs are usually given through I.V (intravenous Injection) but may be given through a mask which covers your mouth and nose. For extra safety, oxygen may be given by a mask before you go to sleep.
‘Freezing’ or ‘Local anaesthetic’ (Like what dentists use) is injected near nerves to numb a part of your body. You may remain awake or you may have drugs to make you feel sleepy. Tell your anaesthesiologist how sleepy you wish to me.
We always test to make sure that the operation will not hurt. The area will be covered with a sterile sheet to help protect you from infection so you will not be able to watch the operation.
When the operation is small, local anaesthetic may be injected close to the area. You may remain awake or you may have drugs to make you feel sleepy. The risks and benefits of the different kind of anaesthetic for you will depend on many things and should be discussed with your anaesthesiologist.
No matter what kind of anaesthetic you have, your anaesthesiologist will stay with you throughout your operation.
Instructions for day of your surgery
Directions for eating and drinking
DO NOT eat food, drink alcohol, eat candy or chew gum after midnight the night before operation.
You may drink clear fluids until 3hours before your arrival at the hospital. Clear fluids include water, apple juice, clear coffee or tea (no cream or sugar) if it’s a day-case surgery.
An empty stomach will help prevent vomiting. If you have other problems which make you more likely to be sick, the anaesthesiologist may order special medicine for you.
Directions for medication
If you are on medication, please ask the anaesthesiologist about taking them on the day of your surgery. Special instructions will be given about diabetic medication, blood thinners and aspirin.
You will arrive at the hospital admitting area in time for final preparations for surgery or admission. You will be taken to the operating room area approximately one hour before surgery. You will meet your anaesthesiologist there. He or she will have reviewed the information and test results from your preadmission visit and will answer last minute questions for you.
In the operating room.
You will be positioned on a flat table so you are safe and comfortable. Equipment will be put on you so your heart activity, blood pressure and oxygen level can be checked. Your anaesthesiologist will make sure you are as comfortable as possible at the end of your surgery.
Special pain control methods may be necessary and usually will be discussed with you before your operation.
After your anaesthetic
When your operation is finished, your anaesthesiologist will take you to the recovery room. While you are waking up, the nurses will check your heart, breathing and blood pressure. They will remind you to breathe deeply and may give you oxygen.
If you need anything for pain or nausea, they will give it to you. Your anaesthesiologist is responsible for your care in the recovery room.
How safe is Anaesthesia?
A general anaesthetic can cause sleep, nausea, vomiting, sore throat, hoarseness, sore muscles and headache. It is possible that your teeth may be damaged if there is a problem keeping your breathing passage clear. Regional anaesthetics occasionally cause headache and rarely can cause low blood pressure or trouble breathing. Your anaesthesiologist is trained to manage these situations and will be with you throughout your operation.
Overall, the chance of a serious injury or death from an anaesthetic is less than 1 in 10,000. It is safer than driving in a car.
The accounts department will advise your payment methods and requirements before your surgery. If you are not sure about your operation, please ask your surgeon or anaesthesiologist. | <urn:uuid:50726007-e9e9-4a91-b4aa-7119630c749d> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://www.machakos-orthopaedics.org/having-an-anaesthetic | 2020-10-01T14:50:13Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600402131777.95/warc/CC-MAIN-20201001143636-20201001173636-00798.warc.gz | en | 0.937846 | 1,010 |

PRESS RELEASE: Kiwi journalists featured in new podcast, Friday Prayers
A new podcast has unveiled raw, firsthand stories of Kiwi journalists who reported from the frontlines of Christchurch’s Mosque Attacks.
Christchurch television reporter Thomas Mead is featured on episode 01 of the audio interview series.
Friday Prayers is a six-part podcast series featuring honest interviews with New Zealand journalists who played a significant role in reporting the events of March 15, 2019.
Hosted by Media Chaplain and Radio Broadcaster Reverend Frank Ritchie, this independent podcast infuses the reporters’ tales with his personal experience supporting journalists processing the intensity of the attacks.
Newshub Journalist Thomas Mead features in the podcast’s first episode, talking to Ritchie about what it was like working that day and how he walked the line between delivering the news and being empathic to the people of his city whose world had been turned upside down.
The podcast series also features:
Stuff’s award-winning investigative journalist, Blair Ensor, who was one of the first at the scene having arrived on a Lime Scooter at the same time as emergency services.
TVNZ journalist Lisa Davies whose emotional live report outside the Mosque gave a glimpse into the sensitivity required of all journalists working that day.
Former Stuff visual journalist George Heard (now Newshub) whose images of the scene at Deans Ave were the first to be broadcast across the world.
NZME’s Rachel Das whose empathetic approach to the victims led to touching interpersonal moments we would not usually associate with journalism.
Logan Church of RNZ who threw himself into the mix, reporting early, and doing his best to help victims.
Rolled out across the week before the first anniversary of March 15, the podcast sheds light on what it was like to be a New Zealand journalist on such a historic day and the emotional and mental processing that followed.
Rev Frank Ritchie says for the Christchurch journalists the attacks felt personal as it was their home.
“Their empathy shone through. They threw themselves into danger, yet in all of it maintained their professionalism, while also extending care to those who were suffering.
“All of us around the country knew what was going on within minutes of the attack because there were people who had rushed into the chaos, digesting and relaying information and stories as it all unfolded – journalists; most importantly, Christchurch journalists.”

A park in Watford has been temporarily closed as yesterday’s bad weather resulted in damage to trees causing multiple safety hazards.
Residents are told not to visit Cassiobury Park for their own safety and a specialist team of tree experts is assessing the damage today.
A statement from Watford Borough Council reads: “We have taped off any hazardous areas and a specialist team of tree experts will be assessing the damage today.
“Barriers have been placed at several entrances to advise people not to enter the park. Please do not visit until we are sure it’s safe for you to do so.”
Elected Mayor of Watford Peter Taylor said Cassiobury Park took a direct hit from the storms last night.
He said: “Tree experts have been in the park this morning and have recommended we temporarily close the park to keep visitors safe from falling trees and debris.
“This has been done temporarily whilst emergency repair work takes place to the affected trees. I know this will be a frustration to the park’s many visitors but keeping people safe must be our highest priority. The park will reopen as soon as it is safe to do so.”
Each year around 6 people in the UK are killed when trees or branches fall on them. Around 3 people are killed each year by trees in public spaces.
If you see a tree down because of high winds, and it seems like an emergency because it’s blocking a road or pathway, contact Watford Council’s call centre on 01923 226400. | <urn:uuid:92e40ce0-8630-4073-a3d5-cbe210972c6b> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://www.mynewsmag.co.uk/dont-visit-safety-hazards-from-fallen-trees-lead-to-temporary-closure-of-cassiobury-park/ | 2020-10-01T15:02:09Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600402131777.95/warc/CC-MAIN-20201001143636-20201001173636-00798.warc.gz | en | 0.967597 | 324 |
Simon Sebag Montefiore, Jerusalem: The Biography (New York: Alfred A. Knopf, 2011).
This is one serious piece of work! This 650-page tome presents an excellent high-level summary of the history behind the conflicts we are seeing today in the Middle East. It does what a good history book should do: that is, go beyond just presenting a sequence of events and instead present a cohesive and meaningful narrative. The subtitle is “The Biography” because the book examines the people and families integral to the history of Jerusalem. Starting from King David and going all the way through to Netanyahu in 2010, Montefiore covers a lot of ground. I have to say, it’s a depressing read—rebellion, violence, murder, war, destruction. It’s sobering stuff. This is not light reading, and you have to keep in mind the summary nature of the text. Almost every paragraph could be easily expanded to the length of a journal article, and some to the length of a book. The narrative moves quite quickly, so it may be best tackle the book in smaller chunks than I did. It’s a very pertinent book and I have to say I enjoyed it. I think it’s a great “introduction” to the full history of the current Middle East situation and I recommend it to anyone so interested. | <urn:uuid:e80e6b83-6c3b-4a19-b74d-5e7fc27bacd1> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://www.perlkonig.com/blog/jerusalem-by-simon-sebag-montefiore | 2020-10-01T15:45:29Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600402131777.95/warc/CC-MAIN-20201001143636-20201001173636-00798.warc.gz | en | 0.920373 | 289 |
State of Search was given a press pass to the Dublin Web Summit – Europe’s largest technology conference – and as the Irish resident on the blogging team I got to attend. Here’s my write-up of the first day:
State of Search: Dublin Web Summit
The 2012 edition of the Dublin Web Summit is a two-day extravaganza boasting over 4000 attendees and 200 speakers. Some of the Web Summit’s line-up included web superstars such as Robert Scoble, Paul Sciarra (Pinterest), and David Rowan (Wired UK), as well as digital marketing elder statesmen like Jon Myers, Joanna Lord, Darmesh Shah, and our very own Bas van den Beld.
One of my major frustrations as a digital marketer is the short-term thinking prevalent in businesses. Many see digital marketing as an instant money generator, and that it definitely isn’t:
State of Search: Overcoming Short-term Thinking in the Digital Industry
Too many corporate leaders seem to think that digital marketing has a magic bullet, a secret button that can be pressed and voilà tens of thousands of website visitors come rolling out eager to give their hard-earned money to the company. Of course we know that it’s a ludicrous idea. This stuff is hard. It takes time and effort and patience.
Recently there’s been a lot of hype in the SEO blogosphere about Google’s ‘transition rank’ patent. As a result of our awareness of this patent, we’ve changed our perspective on SEO tests and rank tracking. And I wonder, maybe that’s precisely what Google intended..?
State of Search: Transition Rank as Propaganda
Google’s engineers are keenly aware of the sensitivity of their algorithms’ inner workings, and Google’s PR people are keenly aware of the effects their external communications have on the internet industry as a whole, and SEOs in particular. It’s not a particularly far stretch to imagine that Google sometimes deliberately publishes propaganda to influence external perceptions. | <urn:uuid:5b7f870a-fcd4-40c0-9ea8-7aa2ef1d4c42> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://www.polemicdigital.com/dublin-web-summit-short-term-thinking-transition-rank/ | 2020-10-01T17:10:00Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600402131777.95/warc/CC-MAIN-20201001143636-20201001173636-00798.warc.gz | en | 0.921774 | 435 |

Find out more about what makes Bermuda so special, with our top 10 Bermuda activities:
1. Relax on world famous pink sand beaches
The Beaches on Bermuda's South Shore are famous for a reason. With clear waters, pink sand, and the sound of gently lapping waves, you'll feel like you're in paradise on Horseshoe Bay Beach — consistently ranked as one of the world's best! Walk to the end of the beach to find your own private cove.
2. Immerse yourself in local history
With its strategic location between the U.S. and Great Britain, Bermuda's Royal Naval Dockyard was constructed in the 1860s to protect against an American invasion. Today, the impenetrable keep of the fort is home to the National Museum of Bermuda.
3. Feel the Gombey rhythm
The Gombey dancers are an iconic symbol of Bermuda, and a proud Bermudian tradition reflecting the island's blend of African, Caribbean and British cultures. These colorful dance troupes perform weekly at Harbor Nights, a street festival in the capital city of Hamilton.
4. Stop to enjoy the view
Climb up the 185 steps of Gibbs' Hill Lighthouse — no relation to SS United States designer William Francis Gibbs — for an incredible view of Bermuda from above.
5. Cross the world's smallest drawbridge
Somerset Bridge in the western parish of Sandys is the smallest working drawbridge in the world. The entire width of the drawbridge is only 81 centimeters! Once you're there, check out the jet-ski tours offered nearby for a totally different perspective on the island.
6. Enjoy the British charm
There's a leisurely pace to life in Bermuda that locals still treasure. Embrace island time as you savor an afternoon tea, or stop by one of the island's pubs, like Dockyard's Frog & Onion or Hamilton's Hog Penny, for classic British fare.
7. Go underground
Legend has it that Bermuda's breathtaking Crystal Caves were discovered by a young Bermudian playing cricket with a friend. Visit to experience for yourself what author and traveler Mark Twain called "the most beautiful cave in the world."
8. Sample the national cocktail
You'll have a hard time leaving Bermuda after trying the national beverage, a rum swizzle! This favorite with locals and visitors alike is served island-wide, although many recommend a visit to the east end watering hole, the Swizzle Inn.
9. Put on a pair of Bermuda shorts
Don't be afraid to go bright when you don your very own pair of Bermuda shorts! With fantastic shopping opportunities in Hamilton and at Dockyard's Clocktower Mall, you'll have no trouble finding a pair to take home.
10. Stroll down 400-year-old streets
The town of St. George's, first settled in 1612, is an UNESCO World Heritage Site and an unmissable stop on any tour of Bermuda. The charming cobblestone streets and 18th-century cottages will win you over, while nearby you can explore beaches, forts, and some of Bermuda's best wildlife preserves!
Sailing in May 2018, the 7-night SS United States Legacy Cruise aboard the Celebrity Summit will depart from Cape Liberty (Bayonne, New Jersey) on Sunday, May 6 and will make port at King's Wharf, Bermuda on May 9 for a three-day stay. The ship will return to New Jersey on Sunday, May 13. | <urn:uuid:65574dba-a621-4aa4-918d-a236600a3f8b> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://www.wearetheunitedstates.org/single-post/2017/12/07/bermuda-attractions-ss-united-states-legacy-cruise | 2020-10-01T17:20:05Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600402131777.95/warc/CC-MAIN-20201001143636-20201001173636-00798.warc.gz | en | 0.928407 | 776 |
Selling Diamond Jewelry in San Jose
Last updated: March 18, 2020
Searching for the most trustworthy buyer is crucial when planning to sell jewelry. While limiting risk is important, people also want to get the best price available. This is possible but involves meeting with a list of dealers in the area, a tiresome and largely inefficient way to move the final price towards fair market value. With Worthy, people in San Jose have the opportunity to get a better offer when they sell their jewelry.
San Jose is a great place to sell jewelry, and residents have several choices at their fingertips, including online. At Worthy, we provide many valuable complimentary services and put your item in front of a market of buyers who bid competitively for the right to take it home.
How to Get the Best Price for Your JewelryThe best prices come from markets with high volume. This means multiple buyers, multiple sellers and a way for them to easily compete against one another. Other than the lack of effort required to sell your jewelry to a single local buyer, there are almost no advantages to this method. Single boutique stores, high end dealers and even pawn shops operate on a strict markup model to cover their overhead, so they are not incentivized to extend fair market offers to sellers like yourself. Should there be room in their inventory, potential local demand and enough cash on hand, chances are they will still throw out a price from the bottom of the barrel.
It’s possible to create a small market between the local shops, but it’s also hard work. A better idea is to go with Worthy, where we pay to get your jewelry professionally graded and photographed, then put it in front of a broad buyer network online. We’ve created a system for multiple reliable buyers to place bids confidently, with the knowledge that what they see is the real deal. This formula results in better valuations for our customers and their precious items.
Where Can You Sell Jewelry in San Jose?
San Jose residents have great options to explore when selling their jewelry, but some are better than others.
Local San Jose Jeweler: Diamond buyers, pawn shops and other dealers in the area are still a solid choice, but come with a big downside. The “buy low, sell high” model they thrive on leaves little room for resale, especially for those willing to sell their jewelry while expecting a fair market price. These places will often neglect to properly grade gems before giving an appraisal, which is never an advantage for someone considering parting with a precious or sentimental object.
Online: The best way to sell your diamond jewelry no longer requires a storefront. It begins at Worthy.com, where we ask you for some information on your item and offer a free initial appraisal. Then, we pay for secure, insured FedEx shipping to our headquarters, where it’s GIA or GSI graded, professionally photographed and listed on the auction platform. You will enjoy complete control throughout the entire process.
About San Jose
San Jose is a city with a distinctly Spanish name, but before Spain ever planted their flag, the region was inhabited by the Native American Ohlone tribe. When the Spanish arrived in the late 18th century, they quickly built a Pueblo (village) dedicated to San José de Guadalupe. San Jose (meaning Saint Joseph) for short, the town was founded in Northern California in 1777 and was key to the region’s crop harvesting and food production efforts. In 1850, California was inducted into the United States, and the small city of San Jose became its first capital before it was switched Sacramento.
Skip to present day and San Jose holds the title of the largest city in Northern California. Though it had humble beginnings in agriculture, rapid growth following World War II saw the city bloom into a hub for culture, economics and technological innovation. It has a place in the middle of Silicon Valley, where the country’s most prestigious high tech firms have their headquarters. The vast concentration of wealth that accompanies this industry has seen the real estate become some of the most expensive to own in entire the world, with the price of an average house in San Jose now valued at well over $1 million.
The “Capital of Silicon Valley” is also an international destination, bringing all types of affluent people from around the globe who desire a place among California’s elite. Accordingly, the GDP per capita in San Jose is the third highest in the world, a short distance behind Oslo and Zurich. Money has brought other industries here as well, including jewelry. Wealthy San Jose residents have impeccable tastes, and there are countless options for those looking to purchase an exemplary piece of fine jewelry, or sell their own.

Electronic Pastes Are A Quality Choice For Conducting And Insulating
There is a lot of advancement in the electronics industry which are improving day by day. The electronic products are manufactured with precision and accuracy by specialized engineers. There are a lot of things associated in the manufacture of an electronic product. Wires, windings, resistors etc. are common things used in the preparation of an electronic appliance. But one of the important thing that’s used in every appliance is the electronic paste. This electronic paste is made up of silver, aluminium and other type of elements. These pastes are heated and applied to maintain a mechanical connection for electric/thermal/dielectric connection. The electronic pastes are an essential need in the electric appliances. The use of more paste can lead to a short-circuit and if little is used then there is chances of a poor connection. There are also many varieties of pastes available in the market. One should ensure to take a good quality of paste to ensure a strong connection.
These electronic pastes are used for thermal or electrical connections after heating them along the electronic board. Mostly these pastes are silver pastes because silver gives a benefit as malleable, ductile, and very soft element. These are mostly used in soldering. There are many types of pastes available based on their conduction properties: –
* Conductive paste – The conductor paste is an adhesive which attaches electrical connections together. These are very much used in boards where wiring may not be possible. There are various types of conductive pastes available like Ag paste, Ag/Pd paste, Au paste, Pt paste, wolfram paste which can be used in different applications like buzzer, stainless steel substrate electrode, led ceramic circuit, thick film circuit and as sensing element etc… With so many vast applications these pastes are in high demand.
* Resistor paste – The resistor paste is a very important discovery. It is prepared such a way that it is thermally conductive and electrically insulated. It is mostly used as an interface for heat sink and heat sources. The main composition of these pastes is ag, pd and RuO2. The resistor pastes are used in chip resistor, resistor, substrate resistor and low temperature heating field. There are two categories of resistor paste: power resistance paste and thick film resistor paste.
* Dielectric paste – The dielectric paste is electrically insulated and can withstand a high voltage load. It is also used as a lubricant and is therefore called silicon grease. These pastes find application in stainless steel insulating, stainless steel heating board and alumina substrate thick film circuit multi-layer insulating works.
* Heating board – There are variety of heating boards available such as ceramic heating plate, glass ceramics heating version, stainless steel heating plate and soft substrate heating plate.
These pastes have found a lot of applications in repair works, laboratories and appliance manufacturing. There are several professional experts who manufacture the best quality of Ag paste. With improved and enhancing skills these experts have innovated a very good quality of electronic paste. In this era where use of appliances has been boosted up by electrical effect, the manufacturing of such appliances need electronic pastes. | <urn:uuid:b008dd0a-e948-4f8d-9e5f-1c3c7dfcd53d> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | http://hv-caps.biz/electronic-pastes-are-a-quality-choice-for-conducting-and-insulating/ | 2020-09-19T12:59:56Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400191780.21/warc/CC-MAIN-20200919110805-20200919140805-00198.warc.gz | en | 0.942155 | 668 |

As I was strolling arm-in-arm down the street with Miles Redd the other day he was reminiscing about his childhood. Oh, wait. Perhaps it didn't go quite like that.
Redd and I did have an exchange about his childhood, but it was more like this - I had the enormous pleasure of interviewing Thomas Britt
a few weeks ago. In my living room. Britt is from Kansas City and was in town to see friends. My editor and I thought it would be interesting - great fun, really - to interview him for the magazine. Beyond interesting, it was fascinating and immensely
He told me stories of Studio 54 and maharajahs, but some of his most interesting tales were of his growing up. He told me of redecorating his parents' dining room while they were out of town. Really redecorating. Painting the floor and walls and installing salvaged columns and moving things around. "How'd they take it?" "What?" "The redecorating, when your mother came home from her trip, how did she react?" "React?! She loved it, of course!"
Of course. That is the kind of mother I want to be, but sometimes fall short. The kind of mother who would come home to find that her incredibly talented son had redecorated the dining room, better than she, and celebrate it. It got me thinking.
So I shot Redd an email. Did he, I wondered, begin showing an interest in lacquer and lamps while knee-high? And if so, did his folks just hand him a paint brush and go back to the Journal Constitution? Pretty much.
"As a child I had a fascination with with front doors and chandeliers," said Redd,"the grander the better. My bedroom was an ever-evolving canvas. I remember arranging stuffed animals and was always into the arts, painting and drawing.
My parents were very supportive. My mom, ever clever, would get me to decorate the house for Christmas. I would slave on pomanders and polish all the silver, but she had a strong sense of her own style and we did not always see eye-to-eye. I wanted ball fringe on everything, and my mother had a very colonial approach to things. She loved that scrubbed, Spartan look - polished mahogany, hemstitched linen, very plain silver, air twist glasses. She taught me restraint and understatement, and I suppose I teach her about a certain grandeur.
My mom has [my] Christmas list from age five requesting a fire place in my room. I thought falling asleep to the dying embers would be nice."
If only one of my boys would refer to me as "ever clever," I'd be quite content.

Q. I was employed as a primary law enforcement (6(c) covered position) for 14 years. I paid 1.7 percent into FERS during that time. I left that position and went to a noncovered position, which is a regular FERS retirement 1 percent. When I spoke to human resources, nobody could give me an answer to what happens to the 0.7 percent, which was taken out for 14 years. Granted, I was told that the 0.7 percent would be held until retirement in case I decided to go back to 6(c) covered position, and I would be credited the time and money toward that retirement. Now that I’m getting close to retirement, I’ll have 33 years at age 56 in four years. How does the 0.7 percent figure into the retirement? Since I “overfunded” my FERS “regular” retirement by 0.7 percent for 14 years, would I receive a lump-sum check for 0.7 percent, as an overage payment into the retirement system? Receive credit in time? Or just plain lose it?
A. No, you wouldn’t receive a lump-sum payment. No, you wouldn’t receive extra service credit. Yes, you would lose it. | <urn:uuid:1656b788-0c97-41c2-afb5-78c26444ad7c> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | http://retirement.federaltimes.com/2013/11/06/law-enforcement-annuity-calculation-2/ | 2020-09-19T13:08:58Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400191780.21/warc/CC-MAIN-20200919110805-20200919140805-00198.warc.gz | en | 0.988459 | 267 |
Unfortunately, filing a car insurance claim isn’t an easy process, and many claimants are absolutely shocked to discover that their insurance company isn’t on their side as they claim to be. It is more common than you may think for an insurer to take advantage of those who file an insurance claim. This is because they are losing money by having to provide you with an injury settlement.
However, there are ways you can protect your money and prevent yourself from losing money you deserve. Continue reading to learn more about how you could outsmart the insurance company when you file an insurance claim.
One of the most common ways an insurer will try to reduce your settlement is by asking you for a statement. Though it may seem innocent enough, the insurance adjuster is actually going to use your own words against you, if they can.
Many insurance adjusters have been known to manipulate a claimants words to make it seem as though they have admitted fault in some way or accepted responsibility for causing the accident, according to one personal injury law firm, Custodio & Dubey, LLP. Your best bet is to have any statement you might give be reviewed by a legal professional as opposed to giving them a statement that could be used against you.
Similarly, don’t give a statement to the other party’s insurance company at all; you are not obligated to do so. They are only looking for you to admit fault so they don’t have to cover your damages.
In many situations, the insurance company will make you an injury settlement offer. But, just because they made you an offer doesn’t mean you have to accept it. You are well within your rights to reject their offer and even make one of your own by counteroffering. The insurer is likely going to offer you far less than you deserve, so don’t be afraid to negotiate for what’s rightfully yours.
Though it can be tempting to accept an offer from the insurance company, you should also be sure to review your offer with your lawyer before you make the decision to accept.
It is very unlikely that the insurer has made you a fair offer, and while you may need the money as soon as possible to cover your damages, you could also obtain a much larger settlement if you refuse to accept less than you deserve. Go into your settlement discussions with the knowledge that the insurer is looking out for themselves, so you should too. | <urn:uuid:82dd6ef0-d468-4ed2-bbf1-4ded66b3e7c7> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | http://www.abetterdealconference.org/how-to-outsmart-the-insurance-company/ | 2020-09-19T12:33:33Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400191780.21/warc/CC-MAIN-20200919110805-20200919140805-00198.warc.gz | en | 0.982363 | 497 |

"At the end of ten days they look healthier and better nourished than any of the young men who ate the royal food. So the guard took away the choice food and the wine they were to drink and gave them vegetables instead. To these four men God gave knowledge and understanding of all kinds of literature and learning. And Daniel could understand visions and dreams of all kinds," (Daniel 1:15-17 NIV).
Daniel's Choice Leads to Blessing
Not only did God bless these young men spiritually who had resolved not to defile themselves, but he also gave them knowledge and understanding of literature and learning. If we want to raise smart and godly kids, there is only one way to do it! Resolve to not defile them with the world's ways, but instead always seek first the Kingdom of God. The Lord always blesses those whose hope is set on Him!

Sapả (or Sapá) means “sandy plain” is the marketplace where locals usually gather together for trading goods. Until its name was spelt incorrectly by the French, Sapa was a fantastic, romantic tourist attraction known as “The Earth’s Heaven,” and Fansipan peak was called “Roof of Indochina.”
Sapa is a small town situated in the Lao Cai province in northwest Vietnam at 1,500-1,800 meters (10,312 ft) above sea level. Sapa has one of the most favorable climates in Vietnam, with cool weather year-round and frost and even snow mid-December to mid-January. The average temperature falls in the range 15 – 180C.
The Earth’s Heaven
After finishing up work and family responsibilities, all kind of photographers gather annually in Sapa during September and October to start their “hunting journey” on Sapa’s picturesque terraced rice fields.
No one could resist the imposing scene of hills, valleys and mountains. No one could ignore the alluring beauty of rivers and springs. And no one could fail to notice the marvelous view of the terraced rice fields, which symbolize the ladder of heaven and are honored as one of the seven magnificent terraced rice fields in the world by the US Travel and Leisure Magazine. Mu Cang Chai and Ban Ho are notable for being favorite places to capture shimmering pictures of the fields during their harvesting seasons.
Shooting pictures in the snow has recently become a trend for many photographers, who choose the top of O Quy Ho mountain pass to be their gathering spot.
Fansipan is the highest peak of Hoang Lien Son mountain range at 3,143 meters above sea level. In order to conquer “Roof of Indochina,” hikers must climb 12,000 meters through mountainous terrain to reach the peak and then make another 12,000 meter climb down. The route still contains lots of wilderness obstacles and is one of the most adventurous and harsh climbs that challenges skillful hikers with slippy cliffs and landslides.
From Fansipan conquerors’ experiences, hikers should wear good shoes with stiff tips and soles, tough rubber and scree collars, a kind of special tights under your hiking pants to keep your legs warm. Shorts should be worn in the summer. A few pairs of socks should be carried to protect hikers from insects and itchy plants and should be available to change when they get wet. Leather gloves with water resistance will best support you on slippy cliffs. Scarves are also useful accessories to keep you warm when the temperature is below 80C. Finally, you are compelled to wear a thick jacket unless you want to be frozen to the bone.
Tourist are always looking forward to taking a picture with the pyramid stone that says “Roof of Fansipan.” Be sure to witness the sunrise or the sunset at the highest peak of Hoang Lien Son. Make a plan to assure that you can enjoy one of the most stunning moments in life. You have two options: wake up at 4 a.m. after spending a night at 2,800 meters to catch the sunrise, or enjoying the sunset before climbing down to 2,800 meters at 9 p.m. | <urn:uuid:cae3c220-6f11-4e08-b1cf-38ff037b0916> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://aaronmai.com/2012/10/17/hunt-sapas-beauty-and-conquer-fansipan-peak/ | 2020-09-19T13:12:14Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400191780.21/warc/CC-MAIN-20200919110805-20200919140805-00198.warc.gz | en | 0.955768 | 692 |

Introducing this stone into the contemporary design world is how we convey its infinite, intimate qualities. This unique stone has a rich history. Early on, it served as windows or stained glass, later being carved into sculptures or decorative objects. Whatever the era, alabaster evokes serenity.
A specific and rare crystallization of gypsum creates the unique texture and translucent appearance of alabaster. Preserved underground, the stone emerges lackluster, inviting sculptors to reveal its secrets and splendors, variations and transparencies.
A RIGOROUS SELECTION
White translucent alabaster in the dimensions we require for our creations is rare. Moreover, it offers myriad patterns – fluid or crystallised, white or ochre – and many degrees of transparency. It is thanks to our high standards and expertise that we are able compose harmonious sets.
ALABASTER RICHNESS AND ET SUPPLENESS
Alabaster is amazingly tender, making it easy to shape and sculpt.
Sounds easy to work, right? In reality, that same characteristic makes it easy to break or scratch.
Our trademark Stonelight protection treatments bridge richness and constraint.
Creativity is unleashed!
THE STONE MAGNIFIED BY THE BACKLIGHT
Light that passes through the material’s mass reveals its pattern’s density: cloudy, fluid or crystallised. We work on the light source’s uniformity and richness to bring the patterns to life.

Our economies are under the stewardship of fund managers with one goal in mind: to maximize fee income, even if it means holding on to impaired assets.
“How’d this investment do last quarter?" In the world of alternative investments, getting a simple answer can be strangely difficult.
“This time is different” might be the four most dangerous words in investing. “Uncorrelated returns” may just be the two most lucrative.

Beds of six-inch long iron spikes put up in an Army cantonment in Guwahati to keep wild elephants out may have been the reason for the death of at least one pachyderm this month and injuries to several others in the past, said forest officials who had flagged this “cruel effort to keep the elephants at bay” in December 2018.
According to records with the Guwahati wildlife division, the carcass of a 9-10 year, 1500-kg male elephant was found near a stream from the Amchang Wildlife Sanctuary in Guwahati on March 4.
The post-mortem report noted “externally there are various punctured wounds on right fore and hind legs.” The report said the wild elephant died of septicemia.
The Army’s cantonment in Narengi in Guwahati where the iron spikes have been in place since 2003 in the periphery of a major supply depot in its campus, borders the Amchang wildlife sanctuary home to at least 59 wild elephants, according to officials.
“The carcass was found close to the cantonment and the nature of the injury shows that the wound was caused by the spikes,” said Pradipta Baruah, Divisional Forest Officer, Guwahati.
“The foot pads of elephants are very sensitive,” said BK Gogoi, the forest veterinary officer, Zoo division, Guwahati. “The circumstantial evidence and the post mortem suggest that the injury was caused by those spikes. How can you put these spikes?” he said.
“This Army Base is bordering the wildlife sanctuary which is an elephant habitat, and they do venture into it frequently searching for food,” said Kaushik Baruah, a conservationist who serves as the Honorary Wildlife Warden, Guwahati.
Army officials living in the cantonment claim raids by elephants on army depots are routine and often in the evening herds of pachyderms are seen in the campus.
In December 2018, another elephant was injured by these spikes. Baruah said two elephants died of septicemia in 2018.
On December 27, 2018, after receiving a report from the local range officer, Baruah wrote a letter to the Colonel in-charge of administration, Narengi cantonment noting, “On December 25 at about 2 am one wild elephant injured at supply depot of Narengi Army Cantonment while the elephant cross the pointed iron spikes driven to the ground with the sharp points facing the sky fixed at supply depot by Army personnel.”
In the letter Baruah asked the Army to do away with these types of measures. “This type of cruel effort to keep the elephants at bay is definitely going to defeat the very spirit of wildlife protection and preservation,” he wrote.
The letter according to Baruah, led to a discussion between the Army officials, the forest officials, and experts from the WWF among others in January. Baruah said measures like solar fencing and trenches were suggested to the Army.
An army spokesperson in Guwahati denied any elephants getting killed and said “directions have been received recently to remove the spikes and measures suggested by WWF officials and forest officials have been disseminated to all individuals in the cantonment.”
The spokesperson said that the spikes have been there since 2003. “As far as we are aware, there has been only one instance of injury to an elephant in 2005,” the spokesperson said adding that the incident in 2005 led to the Army digging ditches and subsequently also using ultrasonic buzzers to keep the elephants out.
The spokesperson said “the spikes have been put in areas where operational materials are being stored and shortage of them will cause operational exigencies.” According to a defence source, the supply depots in Narengi store rations for the defence forces in the Northeast.
“It’s understood that the Army is trying to protect its installations but such barriers are detrimental to the survival of elephants in that area and there have been deaths due to septicemia which they got after injuries from these spike. They should take steps to remove these barriers,” said Kaushik Baruah.
“Apart from protecting the country, the Army also has the responsibility of preserving and protecting the wildlife,” he said.
In Assam, human-elephant conflict is a routine phenomenon. According to state government records recently placed in the Legislative Assembly 249 elephants were killed since 2010 which include 20 instances of poaching, 54 deaths in train accidents, 91 which were electrocuted, 38 died of accidental reasons, 30 were poisoned, and 15 died of injuries.

One of the biggest challenges for a business is attracting the best talent and then retaining them. In this article we investigate new innovative recruitment techniques and provide top tips on how to get hold of the right people for your organisation.
Building a competent contact centre team, whether for customer service or sales, is not easy. Thankfully, with over 6,200 contact centres operating across the UK, making up over 4% of the country’s workforce, there is a wealth of resource to attract talent from.
How do you attract the right candidates?
When recruitment specialists Launchpad, who work with brands such as AXA, Microsoft and Three Mobile, introduced a new innovative recruitment method, which focuses on behaviours rather than experience, they noticed a positive impact to their clients’ team building. They found that having an appetite for new technology, empathy for customers and great listening skills were more important traits for agents than having had previous experience. These selection techniques have also been adopted by businesses who have contact centres, with some using online questionnaires and novel interview styles to find the right attributes in candidates.
A guide called ‘Recruiting Special Agents’, published by assessment specialists Cut-E, highlights that many contact centres replace up to a quarter of their workforce every year. Such high attrition rates are clearly not good for business. The CEO of Cut-E, Andreas Lohff says “The bad news is that the people who apply for agent positions are often unsuited to the job… This not only has significant financial impact but can harm your metrics and performance indicators.”
Giving potential candidates a realistic view of the role before they apply plays an important part in setting expectations. “When they find out that the role wasn’t what they thought it would be, they’ll either become bored and unproductive or they’ll leave” says Lohff. To avoid this, some organisations use online self-assessment tools, which let candidates see how they match to the job requirements before completing a full application.
Ian Lasplace, Director, Longreach Recruitment, identified in this CallCentreHelper.com article, a number of key points to think about when recruiting:
• Recruit staff against your organisation’s values and culture
• Identify successful traits in your best performing staff and look for these when recruiting
• Recruit to suit the different disciplines in your business i.e sales will require different characteristics to debt collection
• Match your recruits to the culture of a department. Is it a fast paced technology-driven environment? How important is humour, or communication skills and empathy?
• Consider who your recruits will interface with and how
• Understand your competition – try to become an employer of choice within your industry to attract the best candidates
• Once you have recruited the right people, do whatever you can to develop and retain your best staff. Losing good team members costs money, time and sometimes customers.
• Keep people driven, motivated and wanting to excel. Creating a culture of excellence will help deliver a fulfilling, competitive working environment
• Build your teams – team building helps improve your team member relations , knowledge sharing and skills
Other techniques and tools which can add huge value to your recruitment and help you to attract and keep great team members include:
• Test your interviewers – make sure your recruiters fully understand your requirements including key personality traits
• Psychometric testing – use scientific methods to identify and rank the personality traits which you both value and want to avoid
• Recruit for motivation and attitude – train for product knowledge
• Consider flexible working – if your organisation can support remote and flexible working, you can open your search to include candidates who require flexibility.
• Internal recruitment – don’t overlook talent within your business, whose knowledge of your business and its products and services will give them an advantage
Agents of the future – what are the challenges?
As customers become more used to self-service, via apps and websites, agents will be required to handle only the more complex enquiries. Therefore, it’s important that tomorrow’s customer service teams are capable of handling detailed questions, meaning that staff with training and experience will add real value. By recruiting agents who fit your business well, the chances of retaining them and building well-trained loyal teams for the future are vastly enhanced.
What are the alternatives to running your own recruitment?
There are many ways to get help recruiting the right people for your organisation. Using a reputable recruitment agency, that fully understand your industry area and requirements, can really help when trying to find the right candidates. When vetting agencies it’s important to find out how they operate and the levels of experience they have within your sector and area of business.
If your needs are short term, seasonal or sudden, outsourcing some or all of your contact centre needs can provide a solution. Established contact centres or telemarketing agencies have already invested resources in recruiting strong teams, which means they might be a perfect match for your business needs. By ‘recruiting your outsourcers’ carefully your business can avoid many of the pitfalls and costs of the recruitment process.
So, in summary, building a skilled, loyal and dynamic contact centre team can be tricky. However, using the right tools and techniques you can avoid many of the pitfalls which may come your way. Having clearly defined job role requirements and focusing on personality fit as much as industry experience will pay dividends. And there is always the option to outsource your contact centre or telemarketing, if and when required. | <urn:uuid:08220085-f0eb-42b7-bc7a-e82fd8915230> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://contactcentrepanel.com/finding-the-right-people-avoiding-the-pitfalls-of-building-and-maintaining-a-contact-centre-team/ | 2020-09-19T11:59:38Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400191780.21/warc/CC-MAIN-20200919110805-20200919140805-00198.warc.gz | en | 0.947735 | 1,143 |
A Party Inspired by Olaf 3: Build a Snowman (Party Activity)
One of the famous lines from the movie is “Do yo wanna build a snowman?” This is a great question to ask the kids to introduce this activity. Build your own Snowman -Drawing book cover! How COOL is that?
All you need are the ff:
- Disney FROZEN free BUILD A SNOWMAN template
- printable sticker paper
- drawing book
- baby blue or turquoise card stock paper
- snowflake puncher
- black cloth tape
- transparency film (acetate)
- white dimensional paint
- clear glitter glue
- white craft glue
Step 1- A)Click here to download Disney’s FROZEN printable BUILD A SNOWMAN! template (pdf)
B)Remove text and maximise A4 printable stickers. I did two snowman sets per sheet.
Step 2- Cut the parts of snowman and put in a plastic or paper envelope.
Note: If you have lots of time for the activity and if kids are old enough to handle scissors safely then it will actually be more fun to get them to cut the parts of the snowman. In the case of my son’s party where guests were ages 2 to 5, pre-cut stickers was the only way to go.
Step 3- The WINTER COVER. Create a winter feel on the drawing book covers.
Here are my steps: a) decorate one side of transparency/acetate with some punched snowflakes b) add twirls using white dimensional paint (like Puffy) c) add some sparkles using clear glitter glue
d) allow to dry completely e) meantime, glue on blue craft paper onto cover of drawing book, f) adhere decorated side of transparency onto the cover using white craft glue, g) use black cloth tape to make a nice spine.
|The finished WINTER COVER
Now you’re ready for your
“Build a Snowman” PARTYvity…
Below are some photos from my son’s party in school.
Here’s one of my favourites..a puzzled OLAF!
Three of the kids proudly showing their work…
Photo shows what my son’s friends came up with.
Unlimited possibilities indeed!
Note: Sticker paper may be hard to peel off, so it’s best to have 1 adult helping out every 2-3 kids.

From the handbook of the UniversCity of Sockovia.
Written and translated by Cpt. Bucky “Saia” Stardancer - Masterphool in the Outer Space
There is also something like a theory of colour in discordian magic. Discodianism refers specifically to some very special colours, the meaning of which should be explained briefly here from a discordo-magic point of view.
Ah, nice gold. Gold is pure, unadulterated and valuable. Gold has always been given special importance. Despite its apparent futility, wars for gold have always been fought and many people have lost their lives for absolutely unbelievable reasons (see Note 2). In Discordianism, gold is the colour of the Eris’ apple. If you look at the apple as a symbol of its meaning in early religious groups, you can quickly see that the apple is often revered here as a fertility symbol and is generally associated with beginning, creation and fertility. The scholairly Phool may quickly discover certain parallels here. Thus we have the golden apple of Eris and because gold is not rarely the color of beauty but unfortunately also of destruction is symbolized here the aspect of the season “aftermath”. The apple, on the other hand, symbolizes fertility and a new beginning and stands under the aspect of the season “chaos”. In this sense, the golden apple is thrown at the end of the seasons, the cards are shuffled and everyone is waiting for the events of the new year. Maybe it is this deeper insight that connects the gold with the divine, which makes people worship gold and assigns it to strange magical peculiarities. For the discordians, gold is the color of the divine. Eris herself touched the apple and in it her extraordinary ability to walk in chaos is placed. It stands for the fertility of chaos and the old gods, but also for destruction and war. Just think of the legend of the Trojan War in its Discordic version of history, in which the only golden thing is the apple and gold is, for once, not the main reason for a war.
Another reference to gold as a magical Discordic colour can be found in the Illuminatus books from R.A. Wilson and Robert Shea. Hagbard’s submarine is also made of gold and hides golden statues in the ruins of Atlantis that were more than just perfect (aspect divine).
So whenever a Phool wants to call the divine powers, the color gold should also be in play. Gold can also be used in lower rituals that are devoted to either fertility or destruction.
Aspects: Divine, Creative, Destroying
Seasons: Aftermath, Chaos
Special item: Golden Apple, Submarines
Special holiday: The night of the 73rd aftermath of the 1st chaos
Saint: Hagbard Celine
Power animal: Starfish
Reagent: Gold, apples, starfish powder
Note 1 It is advisable from Discordo’s magical point of view to place rituals containing an apple throw at the end of the year, exactly into the night when the seasons change. This symbolic action also reinforces the apple throwing as a symbol for the destruction of the old by the new.
Note 2 An old discordic proverb that I heard from the Dude of Germs at the time does not say “if you want to blind an army, throw gold in their faces”.
Note 3: The starfish is chosen as a power animal because it represents the beginning as well as the end, according to Starfish Cult. In the Starfish Circle it is an exploding star in fom by Big Motha Starfish who sends a small starfish to Earth and lets it all begin there. The circle ends with the small starfish returning to the cosmos. This is also where the cycle of decay and depletion can be seen. The golden cut also shows that the Starfish has a direct connection to Eris.
Grey is also a Discordic colour. It stands for grey face and grey bureaucracy on grey computers in grey buildings. Grey are grey days and the boredom that such days occasionally cause is horrible. Grey is monotonous. A meaningless mass in which all fountains in the grey fog become one and no separation between black and white can be seen. Grey thus represents the dissolution of concepts and black and white thinking. If you think grey, you think monochrome, not even another aspect is allowed besides grey, because grey covers everything. On the one hand, grey symbolizes the monotony or also the stubbornness with all the consequences of just one way to follow, on the other hand, the black and white one will just think that bureaucrats are so often subordinated to being dissolved in grey. Here, as with gold, you can see the contrast inherent in every discordic colour. Gray is the monotony, but it hides all aspects and facets that are hidden in the scale black and white. This represents the absolute tolerance that can be found in the discordo magic context in grey. That tolerance stands in direct connection with the proverbial black and white thinking and the ignorance people show when they simply hide unpleasant things. Since grey is also in connection with the fog, which hides everything from the eyes as a cloudy, grey mass, the colour grey is also suitable for discordo magic rituals that make something or someone disappear. Maybe on a grey day some nice gentlemen who are dressed in black and white, have a bureaucratic background and are ignorant and make something or someone disappear. In Discordianism, grey is also directly associated with Gruad Greyface, as well as with the curse of the grey face and the people we generally call “Greyface”. Despite this, for the discordant quite negative interpretation, Phools know the duality inherent in grey.
In the sense of the doctrine of emptiness and the dissolution of concepts as well as the blurring of boundaries, rituals containing the colour grey are often used in connection with the sacrifice of hard drugs.
Aspects: duality, resolution, monotony
Special item: jug, stamp
Special holiday: Bureauflux and every 4 years especially St. Tibs Day
Power animal: single-celled organism
Reagent: cabbages, bureaucratium, hard drugs
Note 1 The House of Emptiness uses a jug of water for certain rituals related to bureaucracy, disappearances or conformity. This may sound paradox at first, but it should also. Only together do the benefits of jug and water come together and so two things merge into one, black and white becomes grey. In addition, Larry lives in a jug and Larry is often seen as a protective demon of the home of emptiness.
Orange is one of the most classic colours offered by Discodianism. It is even so classical that it has its own element. Orange is strongly associated with gold and so it is hardly surprising that even orange has classic destructive gold aspects. Finally, orange is formed from the mixture of yellow and red. Fire is often depicted in orange, red or yellow, and just as fire has a destructive component, fire also stands for enlightenment and light in general. Fire is progress but also destruction and orange symbolizes just that. Progress by overcoming the old. Orange may well destroy, but the old is always followed by the new and Orange shows this in all its facets. Thus destruction can mean that this planet will eventually burn in the orange fire of the sun, but also the old ideas will be replaced in favour of new knowledge. The torch is a typical object whose orange features are more than obvious for initiated phoolics. Prometheus gave fire to the people and with it progress, knowledge and prosperity (gold/yellow colour) but also many villages were razed to the ground by the targeted throwing of a torch, not to mention how many people died on the pyre of the Middle Ages. And so, in Orange, the powers of destructive are united with the powers of constructive and prosperity. Orange is always used when it comes to invoking the powers of destruction or knowledge and creative creation. Orange thus clearly shows those aspects that have such a decisive influence on discordanism. Orange impressively combines the concepts of destructive and constructive order with the concepts of destructive and constructive chaos. And just as the warm fire in the huts and caves of our ancestors brought them safety, so Orange brings us security at least in the question of what comes after the end.
Aspects: Destruction, Enlightenment, Security
Special item: Torch
Special holiday: Afflux
Direction: Bottom, Top
Saints: - unknown -
Power animal: Butterfly
Reagent: Oranges, book ash, candles
Note 1 Remarkable is that the color yellow from which orange is formed contains the aspect of creation and destruction as well as red the other color. Here, too, we find the astonishing connection between the four assumptions of the Discordians about the nature of chaos and order.
Note 2 As described below for purple, Orange is a transformer color capable of transforming something or someone. Often associated with the burning of a fire, wood is more rarely transformed into ashes than a torch or light of enlightenment, which transforms the seeker into a finder.
Purple is considered the colour of kings. Many noble men and women were described as “dressed in purple” and many high positions, whether secular or ecclesiastical, are only too happy to dress in this colour. Purple as a dye, was and is rare in demand. Whoever can afford it must have something (a crate of golden apples, for example) and whoever has something has the right to look down at the mob from above. That’s the way it is. It is astonishing to see the origin of purple as a dye, which is appreciated by the high people. The basic ingredient is the purple snail. Add salt and urine and the dye was almost ready. The whole thing must not only have stank horribly so somehow also remains a silent suspicion that the dyers gave their urine only too gladly into the mixture. This shows the first magical property of purple. For when the high Lord wears a robe of purple, he also carries snail secretion and urine. Purple has a balancing effect where inequality prevails. It syncronizes the room and provides a harmonious balance in which, in contrast to grey, it makes it easy for people to do what they want. Where grey aggresiev and dominant occurs, purple is rather soft, subtle and unpredictable. Purple is considered to be a high, possibly divine colour even in the Christian sect, and it is used to clothe the most important and highest offices or to decorate the most important and highest objects. Through this charge of purple, which has been recalled as a shade of colour, one can safely assume that purple also possesses a certain heightened degree of spiritual and magical nature. In Discordianism we find purple as the color of the Purple sage. An obviously wise man who was presumably dressed in purple or painted purple. We find him as a remark in the Principia Discordia, which refers to the Honest Book of Truth. There is also a legend about a stone of the Purple sage which is said to contain the chaos in its purple purest form. This stone is said to transform (grey lead) into golden apples, which in magical form means that purple is a transformator capable of magically turning discordomagic grey to discordomagic gold. Snail glands and dyer’s pipi become a king. For this reason, Phools like to use purple as a transformer color or for transfering rituals. Also in rituals that include the Phool as a fool or a joke amused about authorities is occasionally used purple to depict this. The fool is only too often king because he has more freedom to say what he thinks than anyone else. Likewise, many a king is a fool if he thinks he can control everything. However, purple is also the colour of wisdom that is obtained when the way gives the seeker a saying that appears meaningless.
Brother Ron Oxymo of the monastery Santa Pippilotta auf dem Besen writes to Purple
Purple/lilac/violet (not even an unambiguous designation has been achieved so far) is a highly transcendent color that breaks the frame and therefore stands outside of this color system. Each colour has its own specific oscillation, from blue (low frequency) to red (high frequency), but violet, since it is a mixture of red and blue, has both high and low oscillation. Because of this inherent contradiction, it is also regarded as a colour of irrationality or religiousness (which is not a contradiction for discordants). It is also suitable as a symbolic color for the contradictory DISCORDIA, as YOUR actual symbol color hyperpurple (a mixture of infrared and ultraviolet) is unfortunately invisible to human (and many other) eyes.
Since hyperpurple is not visible to the human eye, it can be assumed that there is also a strong connection between purple and Shmoo (the 5th colour). For Phools, this insight is invaluable when inventing spells and rituals that are supposed to transfer “base” qualities, things or persons into outer space. Here, too, the person to be transferred or transformed is wrapped in purple as a symbol of the transformation that the artifact in question is currently going through.
Aspects: Transforming, Balancing
Special item: robe,
Special holiday: All Flux days
Direction: Right, left
Morph: Betty (Bapheris)
Saint: - unknown - (the purple way can be used)
Power animal: octopus
Reagent: red wine, a glass of snails, urine
Note 1 Just as purple can be understood as a transformer for the base to noble, so orange can be inspired as a counterpole transformer. Where purple used marble and fine wood to create palaces and temples, orange burns them down and transforms them into ashes.
Note 2 Purple is a soft, balancing transformer. If Orange transforms then with power and the result is unambiguous and not infrequently unchangeable. Purple as a magical color possesses the ability to transform gently. Almost imperceptibly the snail becomes the colour of the king’s robes and here purple is also very special. Where Orange is consistent, purple is balancing despite the transformation. The king remains dressed in fabric dyed with snails and urine.
The last of the Discordo magic colors forms the invisible. The invisible color is that of the suspicions and suppositions and so some Phools suspect that the Principia Discordia also contains some pages that have been written with schmu and give a deeper insight. The invisible colour is, as already mentioned, related to purple but is rather in opposition to grey. When the spectrum is decolorized, every color in it is grey. Schmu looks the opposite. It covers the whole spectrum as well as grey but it intensifies the colours in it to the extreme. One can therefore also assume that schmu is a color from the inner part of the spectrum itself (a color of the inner cosmos). A common example under Phools says one should look into a star that emits all spectral colors. If you practice this only long enough you are able to see the invisible color (even if you don’t see anything after that). However, this comparison really hits the nail on the head and so schmu as well as grey is one of the hiding colors. Normal people and even the most discordians are not able to perceive schmu at all. It is a very phoolistic colour and from the similarity of the schmu in the outer space the name for this invisible colour finally resulted. Explaining schmu as a color is even more complex than explaining red or green to a blind person. Therefore, we should not even try to formulate a comparative explanation here. The color schmu is described by Phools as the color of the schmu of the outer space and for this reason and of course for reasons of simplicity this name was chosen. Schmu also has in common with grey that it is out of the spectrum. Where grey does not contain any colour, schmu combines all colours at the same time. In the ritual, this is clearly demonstrated by the use of rainbow colors or dust as a substitute for (invisible) schmu. Schmu is also often interpreted as the traditional magical colour of the Phools. However, this is usually done by uninitiated people because the inaugurated Phool knows that every colour is magical in equal parts and can therefore be regarded equally. Ultimately, all colours come from the same source anyway.
Aspects: Mixing, Dissolving, Hiding
Seasons: Chaos, Confusion
Special subject: Eristic focus,
Special holiday: - unknown -
Saint: - unknown -
Power animal: - unknown -
Reagent: Rainbow dust
Element: - unknown -
Note 1 Phools also use schmu to describe the color of the particularly powerful, eristic antifacts. For example, this or that object is said to be very schmu saturated, or this or that book is very schmuy. This shows a particularly strong connection to the eristic energy which maybe corresponds to the opposite pole of grey, which is more associated with aneristic energy.
Note 2 There is virtually nothing known about schmu. This is probably due to the fact that only Phools can see this color and to the strange character of the Phools and the schmu itself. Ultimately you only know that this color exists in the discordic spectrum and somehow covers everything that the other colors can’t cover. This is the nature of schmu because schmu is made up of all colours. | <urn:uuid:7da738dc-6ed0-4393-9237-318d330017da> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://forum.becomealivinggod.com/t/discordic-discordian-magic-theory-of-colours/59605 | 2020-09-19T13:11:16Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400191780.21/warc/CC-MAIN-20200919110805-20200919140805-00198.warc.gz | en | 0.955884 | 3,646 |
Back in February, the hearts of pet lovers everywhere were captured by the story of U.S. Olympic Slopestyle Skier Gus Kenworthy, and his adopted dogs from Sochi, Russia.
Gus met a litter of puppies living close to the athlete’s village in Sochi. The avowed animal lover fell in love with them immediately and pledged to bring the mother and her puppies home with him. Sadly, two of the pups didn’t make it, but the remaining three dogs were brought to the States with the help of Gus’ friend and photographer, Robin Macdonald, and the Humane Society International.
Fast forward to the present, and the Sochi pups are living in Denver with Gus and Robin, adjusting to their new life. They’re loving their new home in Colorado and are looking and feeling better than ever. Check out the Sochi Pups on Instagram
to see Jake, Mishka, and Mama sleeping, playing and loving their new lives.
We were so inspired by this story and wanted to help in any way we could. Fortunately, on a Today Show appearance in February, Gus met our friend Dr. Katy Nelson and was introduced to Freshpet. We decided then and there that those amazing dogs deserved to eat real, fresh food, and Gus agreed. So we started the Sochi pups on a fresh food diet by sending Gus and Robin a supply of Freshpet meals and treats. And (not surprisingly) they have enjoyed every last bit of it.
According to Gus, the Vital Balanced Nutrition Chicken Recipe with Peas, Carrots & Brown Rice
has been their hands-down favorite. He can’t even make it to the fridge to get his own food without the dogs rushing to him, expecting their Freshpet to come out of it! And just by looking at the photos on their Instagram, we can already tell the Freshpet Effect is starting to take place: beautiful, smooth coats, clearer eyes and happy faces!
But there’s more! We’ve got a special announcement regarding Gus and the Sochi pups. Check back in with us on June 16th to be one of the first to hear about this very exciting program and how you can join in. | <urn:uuid:f3320c89-ae41-4ac7-88a4-397bf44b8f99> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://freshpet.com/blog/u-s-olympic-sliver-medalist-gus-kenworthy-sochi-pups-going-fresh/ | 2020-09-19T11:53:45Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400191780.21/warc/CC-MAIN-20200919110805-20200919140805-00198.warc.gz | en | 0.972153 | 456 |
Event Trust Funds Program
The Event Trust Funds program is comprised of three separate funds—the Events Trust Fund, Major Events Reimbursement Program, and Motor Sports Racing Trust Fund—targeted at attracting various types of events to the State of Texas. The Funds can assist Texas communities with paying costs related to preparing for or conducting an event by depositing projected gains in various local and state taxes generated from the event in a dedicated event-specific trust fund to cover allowable expenses.
Who Can Apply?
A municipality, county, or non-profit local organizing committee endorsed by a Texas municipality or county which has been selected to host a qualified event, if the event location in that Texas municipality or county was selected through a highly competitive process by an independent site selection committee which considered other out-of-state locations.
Type of Incentive
Event-specific trust funds created to help pay for qualified expenses associated with an event, to which both the state and applicant must contribute. The state’s contribution may not exceed the projected increase in state sales and use, auto rental, hotel and alcoholic beverage taxes generated as a result of the qualified event during the specified event period or “economic impact window” (window varies by type of trust fund). Applicants must contribute $1 in local tax gains for every $6.25 the state contributes to the fund. Events Trust Fund grant awards are disbursed on a reimbursement basis following a review by the Governor’s Office of submitted costs after the completion of the qualified event. One-hundred percent of allowable expenses may be funded, provided sufficient tax receipts are deposited in the trust fund. The program is funded through event-generated tax increase; there is no maximum or minimum amount of funds available.
Eligibility criteria vary for the three types of event trust funds. For information most relevant to the type of event for which you are considering applying, please view the ETF Guidelines.
The application period is rolling, however some events have specific submission time requirements. Please review the Overview document for trust-fund specific windows.
Eligible applicants should review the Guidelines document before applying to the program. Applicants must submit a complete application packet during the application window to be considered for the program.

On this blog, I typically write about lessons I’m learning and experiences I’m having. I don’t write from a place of complete resolution very often—my blog title is “Journeying with Him,” not “Journeyed” or “There!”–but I always try to share SOME nugget of a lesson learned or perspective gained so reading it isn’t just a waste of your time.
Today, I thought I’d break from that and write from a place of complete NON-resolution about some of the things that I find myself thinking about as an adoptive parent. None have answers; they’re just things I think about and weigh from time to time.
So many of my readers have expressed an interest in adoption. Here are some of the things you may find yourself considering if you go that route. Some apply to multiracial families, some to open adoptions, some to adoption in general.
-In an average week, what color is my child’s world? Is she seeing people who look like her? Where is she seeing them? What are they doing? What assumptions might she make about people who look like her from what she sees? In other words, is she seeing black/biracial people in a variety of jobs with various levels of educational attainment and SES, or is she just seeing white people and/or white people who are served by black people? (The default in our area is one of those two, which frustrates me to no end, but that’s why I think about it and try out different solutions.)
-Do we have friends of other races? Do we have friends from other ethnic backgrounds? Are we spending enough time with them to make sure they are quality friendships? Do my daughters know these friends?
-Do we see and spend time with other multiracial families?
-When my daughters read books and watches TV, does they see children that look like them and families that look like their family? If not, where can I find these materials for them?
-How do we talk about race in our family? What are our terms, what is our approach, and what is developmentally appropriate? For example, Zoe just started talking about “dark skin” and “light skin,” “brown eyes” and “blue eyes.” Do we add words to the conversation like “beautiful” and “different,” or just keep it to the color descriptions right now? At what point do we progress the conversation to why our skin is different?
-How do I best care for my daughters’ hair? What products, grooming routines, and hair styles do I need to learn about to keep their hair healthy and to help them feel comfortable? What resources do I still need to learn about and who can I call for more consultation?
-The same questions above, in relation to their skin?
-What will my daughters look like as they get older? Will my daughters be accepted in this mostly-white area? Will boys want to date them? Will they be accepted in image-focused activities like dance team or cheerleading if they want to (and do I want them to? Ha). These are the kinds of questions that every mom probably has, but I have no insight from my own life to draw from as I sit around projecting into the future 🙂
-Lots of my friends are pregnant right now. Zoe has been very intrigued with the concept of a “baby in belly” and talked about how “Baby Zoe” was in my belly. I told her that some babies grow in their mommy’s bellies and some grow in their mommy’s hearts, and that she and Riley grew in mommy’s heart. This was probably not developmentally appropriate and it’s definitely not biologically accurate; however, I did not want her walking around with the incorrect thought that she grew in my belly, and she is not old enough to really understand the concept of her birth mom. When do I begin unpacking this for her?
-Likewise, Zoe understands that “P” had something to do with Riley’s birth. What does she understand? How much should I discuss this/how much should I have discussed this?
-We have a lot of adoption books, all depicting different aspects and stories. How often do I read these, which should I read now, and how much should I just let her set a pace for our discussions on this?
-What resources (if any) should I provide to friends as they discuss our family with their kids?
-What language do I teach my girls about how to tell their own stories?
-As my daughters grow and understand their stories, I know that aspects of their identity, self-esteem, and sense of belonging will probably be impacted by the fact that they were placed for adoption. What else might be impacted? How do I build strong foundations for my girls in these areas now? How do I know if they are struggling at some point?
-How do I best preserve memories of their birth stories, correspondence with their birth parents, legal documents, photos, etc.? Keeping up with a baby book is already a struggle, but I have to make time for this too, as they deserve access to information about their stories. What’s the best way to do this for them, and when do I introduce these records of their stories to my daughters?
-How will each daughter’s individual story affect her at different stages of her life? What do we tell each girl, and when do we share that information?
-I have different types of information about each daughter’s story (and different pieces of missing information in their stories). How will the holes in their stories affect them as individuals and as sisters?
-What will our ongoing relationship with both girls’ birthparent(s) look like? How do I best serve my girls? How do I best respect their birth moms? Should I still be sending photos to one of their biological grandmothers, who asked me to, even though she never responds?
-How are our girls’ birthparents doing? Do they need anything? We can’t really give it to them if they do, but are they doing okay? How are their families? Along those lines, how do you keep wise boundaries (relationally and emotionally) in place, while still loving?
-There are some aspects of my girls’ stories that I’ve chosen not to explore. Is this actually doing them a disservice, or is it the best thing for them and for respecting their birthparents?
-Will we be asked for something by our girls’ birthparents in the future?
-Will our girls wish we would have done something differently someday?
-Should I reach out and say “thank you” to their birth moms on Mother’s Day, or is leaving them alone more helpful for them?
-Is sending lots of photos at our pre-determined photo intervals helpful, or does it harm the healing process? Is 7 better than 30, or is 30 better? What updates do I include? Do they want to see their baby only, or does it bring them more peace to see their baby in her community/family? Is it safe to share these photos? Are these photos being shared outside of our private communication? Do any of our photos reveal anything I don’t want shared about our neighborhood, family, or community?
As you can see, some of these questions are productive and some aren’t. Some questions have research and a best practice recommendation surrounding them, while others have have no answers and no way to get closer to answers.
Listing all of these questions all out like this probably makes it seem like I fret a lot, but the truth is that I am usually too busy with the logistical concerns of caring for a baby and toddler to spend lots of time analyzing these questions (and I would never let myself think about all of these questions in a row anyway…hello, anxiety!)
Still, I should think about them from time to time, as I think it would do my children a disservice to parent them as if we weren’t a multiracial family, as if we weren’t an adoptive family, or as if loss wasn’t a part of their stories. (For more on the latter, read this fantastic blog post.)
And I do have one answer: the best things I do as an adoptive mom is the best thing any mom can do, and that is to pray for wisdom, trust that God will give it to me, and take the advice in Philippians 2:4: “…each of you should look not only to your own interests, but also to the interests of others.” If I am interested in my daughters’ emotional lives, proactively begin conversations with them about their feelings as they grow, pray for them, and seek insight into how to understand and support their unique needs, I cannot go wrong. | <urn:uuid:842e3389-8a18-47ea-ba7c-e46ef35ad9c5> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://journeyingwithhim.com/2015/03/13/adoptive-parent-questions/ | 2020-09-19T11:41:01Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400191780.21/warc/CC-MAIN-20200919110805-20200919140805-00198.warc.gz | en | 0.973926 | 1,899 |

Using the feedback provided by students, staff, parents, and community members, the Methow Valley Calendar Committee submitted a proposed 2019-20 MVSD School Calendar to the superintendent and school board for final approval at Wednesday’s regular board meeting.
In advance of voting, members of the school board acknowledged the many complexities associated with the establishment of a school calendar.
Board Chair, Marchbank stated, “It’s an impossible task to create one calendar that pleases everyone. However, I must say that I’m pleased by the committee’s effort to prioritize teaching and learning, build in multiple opportunities for students, parents, and teachers to come together to set goals and discuss their progress, provide ongoing professional development opportunities for all staff… and develop a calendar that recognizes the County Fair as a rich part of our Valley’s history by providing a day off on the first Friday.” It received unanimous support and final approval from the school board.
A final draft of the calendar on display will be made available shortly following Spring Break, but we wanted make this information available to you sooner rather than later for those of you eager to make summer plans. | <urn:uuid:056f7551-ab77-47cb-b432-ebd222134f95> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://methow.org/2019/03/29/presenting-the-draft-2019-2020-mvsd-calendar/ | 2020-09-19T12:55:57Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400191780.21/warc/CC-MAIN-20200919110805-20200919140805-00198.warc.gz | en | 0.951661 | 239 |

Like the wood anemone that grows in bounty,
she widens her spirit with a rolling pin & throws it out the kitchen window.
Letting it roam vast oceans and municipal roads,
deciding for itself whom to love and where feels like home.
After days of unassisted travel, her spirit boomerangs back
& splats against the kitchen window.
She smiles, knowing that her spirit feels most honored behind the ribs in her chest,
not imprisoned, but guarded against the ills of the world’s unrest.

London, UK – June 1, 2020 – Outpost24, a global leader and innovator in identifying and managing cyber security exposure, today announced its Spring 2020 release which adds major new capabilities to help customers improve remote workforce security during the pandemic and beyond. Faced with an expanding enterprise attack surface as the number of remote workers surge, Outpost24’s agent-based assessment enables organizations to evaluate security posture and achieve greater efficiency by assessing remote assets/devices for vulnerabilities as part of their vulnerability management program.
The Spring 2020 release centers around the introduction of Outpost24 Agent-based network scanning into its full stack security assessment portfolio. An agent-based approach enables greater mobility for enterprise businesses where disconnected endpoints and shadow IT have increased and pose a major security threat for those embracing and supporting an at-home workforce.
A recent Gartner CFO study shows 74% intend to shift some employees to remote work permanently post Covid-19, sending a clear signal that working from home is part of the new normal. Agent-based scanning provides security operations teams with the tools to assess remote assets because they don’t have to be on the network for traditional scanner assessment. Organizations can monitor their attack surface by automating the assessment of vulnerabilities and security controls asynchronously when devices next connect to the network. Agents for Windows 10 systems are available immediately with Linux support for Debian and Fedora distributions following later in June 2020.
“Our customers are reaching a new level of remote work that was expected eventually,” said Bob Egner, CMO and Head of Products for Outpost24. “But the rapid shift driven by COVID-19 has come sooner than expected, creating another urgent security project. We’ve seen a huge surge in demand to secure remote workforce since the crisis hit, with one customer’s at-home assets increasing by over 2000% in just one week. Our agent approach is unique and efficient, building on our risk-based vulnerability management tools. The combination can help our customer maintain cyber hygiene and optimize work at full strength beyond their network perimeter for the long run.”
The Outpost24 product portfolio is the only full stack cyber security assessment on the market today. In addition to agent-based scanning, other significant new product releases include:
- Outpost24 Portal: A simplified interaction for Outpost24 full stack assessment using Appsec and Cloudsec solutions including a new report library and scheduled reporting for improved user experience
- Outpost24 Farsight: enhancements combine business risk scoring with the exposure and likelihood vectors allowing security teams to truly focus on remediating the security issues that pose the greatest business risk
- Outpost24 ServiceNow App: Customers can access the ServiceNow App in the ServiceNow Appstore to ensure they are supported to the latest versions (New York and Madrid)
- Cloud configuration assessment enhancement: Extended CIS benchmark certifications and enhanced compliance view in Cloudsec Inspect to provide additional insight and context in reported findings, including relevant notes, references, and CIS Controls
For more information about the full stack capabilities of Outpost24 check out outpost24.com and for existing customers wishing to add Agents to their subscription please contact your Outpost24 account manager for more information.
Outpost24 is a leading cyber assessment company focused on enabling its customers to achieve maximum value from their evolving technology investments.

Cell phone policy
Students are permitted to bring cell phones and other electronic devices to school but they may not be turned on or be at all visible during the school day. They must remain inside the student’s backpack. Cell phones or other electronic devices that are visible or are left on inside backpacks will be confiscated by the classroom teacher and given to a school administrator. In this case, a parent or guardian will be required to come to school to pick up the device. Cell phones and other electronic devices may not be turned on for use until the student is off the school grounds.
All toys, Pokemon trading cards, action figures, cars, etc are not allowed in school, which includes for lunch and recess. Students often spend more time playing with their toys than eating lunch. Toys also cause conflicts among friends and can get lost at school. If students need to bring in a toy for afterschool or any other reason, it must stay in the backpack until the end of the school day.
Below is PS 38’s school-wide homework policy, to provide a guideline, on the amount (in minutes) of homework we expect in each grade. Homework is rarely assigned on weekends although we encourage and recommend that our students read every day, whether it’s with grade level texts and/or children choosing what they want to read during their own time. The time ranges are a guide for you and your child. If your child finishes their homework quickly, additional reading is recommended. Your teacher can also recommend additional resources, including many wonderful literacy and math websites, for your child to explore. If your child is struggling within the given timeframe, please reach out to your classroom teacher for homework. We want to work together, with you and with your child, to help make homework a positive (as much as it can be!) and manageable experience.

(RxWiki News) Researchers from the Kennedy Krieger Institute and four collaborating institutions have identified an unexpected biological pathway that may contribute to glaucoma.
Knowing biological pathways is important in disease research because if you know the way the disease works, you can tailor drugs and procedures to treat it; it gives you a target to attack.
The researchers unearthed insights into the cellular and molecular mechanisms at work in the optic nerve head (the first point at which cables carrying information from the eye to the brain emerge) of mice with glaucoma. There they discovered astrocytes, a unique class of cells with properties that appear to make them a critical factor in glaucoma sight loss.
At this same site, the researchers also found abnormal levels of a protein called gamma synuclein, which is related to a similar protein in which abnormal amounts are known to cause cell loss in Parkinson's disease. The study suggests a biological process similar to Parkinson's unfolds in glaucoma at this specified anatomical location, pinpointed here for the first time.
The findings give researchers several novel targets for future interventions, said Dr. Nicholas Marsh-Armstrong, senior study author and research scientist at Kennedy Krieger, who added the study results may hold important implications for Parkinson's and other neurodegenerative diseases.
In related news, researchers at Dalhousie University in Nova Scotia found that lowering intraocular pressure (pressure in the eye) appears to delay vision loss in glaucoma patients who are older and have abnormal anticardiolipin-antibody levels, two factors that appear to contribute to more rapid sight-loss in the disease.
The researchers followed 216 patients with open-angle glaucoma (the most common variant of the disease) and followed up with a standardized protocol for controlling intraocular pressure.
Glaucoma refers to a series of eye conditions that damage the optic nerve, which transfers information from the eye to the brain. Often this damage is due to increased intraocular pressure. There are four main types of glaucoma -- open-angle (chronic), angle-closure (acute), congenital and secondary -- making the disease the second leading cause of blindness in the United States. African-Americans and people over 60 are at highest risk of developing glaucoma, which usually does not present any symptoms until some vision is already lost. | <urn:uuid:2611250e-3864-4582-aa40-76bad4cf97bd> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://rxwiki.com/news-article/recent-developments-glaucoma-research-may-lead-better-treatments-sight-thief | 2020-09-19T13:35:07Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400191780.21/warc/CC-MAIN-20200919110805-20200919140805-00198.warc.gz | en | 0.929659 | 492 |

On the 19th of September 2010, what was to become known as the Pike River Mining Disaster began in the close proximity to the town of Greymouth. At an occupied mine of 31 miners and contractors, an initial explosion occurred in the West Coast Region of New Zealand’s South Island at approximately 3:44pm. Two were fortunate enough to walk away from the scene and were treated for moderate injuries at hospital, then later released the next day.
It was believed that the remaining 16 miners and 13 contractors were 1500m from the entrance of the mine. A second large explosion occurred on November 24thand all hope was lost that anybody remained alive. “Based on the expert evidence that I’ve been given and the men who were present, based on the rescue teams that were with me, it is our belief that no-one has survived. And everyone will have perished”, said Superintendent Gary Knowles, the man in charge of the attempted rescue mission.
Two more explosions occurred in the mine on the 26th and the 28th of November, distinguishing any hope that may have remained for the people trapped. The Rescue Operation was led by the New Zealand Police and they were assisted by what was known as “Operation Pike” consisting of staff and management from Pike River Coal Ltd., experts in the field of Mine Rescue from both New Zealand and Australia, the Red Cross, The New Zealand Defence Force, and fire & ambulance services.
In the Red Cross Hall in Greymouth, a welfare service was initiated for the families of the trapped men. This was because the mine’s access road was closed off to everyone except for the emergency services. For several days there was a delay in rescue services entering the mine. Anger amongst the locals began because of what they considered to be undue cautiousness. The leader of Mines Rescue, Trevor Watts, explained that their caution was caused by the team’s belief that any rescuers who entered may have been injured or killed given the conditions of the mine. The 29 men killed by the explosions ranged from the ages of 17 to 62. 24 of the men were New Zealanders, 2 Scottish, 2 Australians, & 1 South African.
The cause of what triggered the explosions still remains uncertain and the Royal Commission of Inquiry is expected to reveal its findings by March 2012. Because it is a matter of very significant public interest, the Royal Commission is taking charge, the highest status of inquiry in New Zealand. The bodies of the men remain trapped in the mine and the recovery effort was abandoned in January 2011 as it was deemed unsafe.
Pike River Mining Disaster – Nature of the Change The Pike River Mining Disaster wasn’t predicted and therefore led to unplanned changes in the Greymouth community and Pike River Mine Ltd. The Pike River Mine stopped operating during the explosions and in the aftermath due to the enquiry taking place. Solid Energy, Kiwi Rail, the Port of Lyttelton and a shipping company, all involved in the transportation of the mine’s coal were impacted by the disaster, lacking business from the mine. Pike River Mine stopped operating, halting the extraction of coal from the mine, and a loss of jobs to a large sector of the Greymouth community.
Families have to leave the community in search of new occupations, affecting other businesses in the area relying on the occupants’ business. The changes resulting because of the disaster are numerous. It is foolish to even begin to imagine what the families of the miners are experiencing. Then there is the Greymouth community which will also be impacted greatly.
Pike River Mining Disaster – Impact of Change External changes * The New Zealand Oil & Gas announced there was a bottom line loss of $75.9million, reflecting the impact that the Pike River coal mine disaster in the first half of the financial year had. * KiwiRail’s net profit fell by 83%
* The family of the deceased miners will be greatly affected by the loss of income and the loss of a family member. Financial and emotional difficulty is inevitable in the case of such a disaster but a relief fund was launched to help provide assistance to the dependents of the dead men. * An impact of the disaster is the opportunity created to the mining community to review it’s handling of accidents and the safety of mines.
* The West Coast’s economy was impacted after the accident due to the [temporary] closure of the mine. It is estimated that the Pike River Mine has pumped approximately 80 million dollars into the economy, $13 million of that being in wages alone. However, the economy before the opening of the mine was strong and it was said that the closure would just lead to the economy returning to pre-mine levels. * Contractors involved with the Pike River Mine are bound to be affected, the smaller companies more than the larger.
Internal changes * Closure, whether it be temporary or permanent, of Pike River Mine until the results of the inquest are delivered. * Pike River Coal were that they were unable to pay back debts before their deadlines * Future of the mine remains unknown leading to suspensions of large contracts and the reviewing of small contracts. | <urn:uuid:05f943a5-1b01-4fe8-a708-e89cfabc2331> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://studytiger.com/essay-pike-river-mining-disaster/ | 2020-09-19T12:30:54Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400191780.21/warc/CC-MAIN-20200919110805-20200919140805-00198.warc.gz | en | 0.981289 | 1,052 |
Following on from all of the recent usability updates (which we've had great feedback on! Thanks for that :) ) we have been busy making some more great changes that we hope you will see the value in.
So what have we changed?
- New Support Site!!
If you're reading this, then you are already on the new Support Site! We've spent some time putting together this great new support suite which we hope you will find useful and jam packed full of guides, FAQs and resources to help you get the most out of the system. This is the first step forward in our new support suite and the next leaps and bounds we make will include more great content including a real focus on delivering video tutorials and guides to show you exactly how to do things within the system and achieve real success!
- Updates to the Email Editor
To help the usability of our email editor for mobile platforms and all browsers, we have converted it from bringing up little pop-ups to opening an on the page editor, giving you a much simpler and easier experience when creating your great customer campaigns.
- Facebook Business Posts
The lasted update has been refreshed with an updated API from Facebook which once again allows us to give you the ability to post not only to your personal Facebook pages but to your business/company pages as well. Allowing you to get your all important company message out there from the one platform again!
- Automated Emails and the Contacts
Automated campaigns are great, they allow you to setup a sequence of emails and add contacts in for that seamless marketing/communication, however, one feature we through would be really helpful, was the ability to see quickly from a Contact record all of the Automated Campaigns that the Contact was currently assigned to. This means that you can see if they've been put into your customer onboarding automated email or if they've been added to that great 5 week course you created - all from their contact record!
- Bug Fix - Adding a Value to a Product
One thing that customers pointed out to us, was the fact that when you add a new product, the system saved the value into the description box! Not exactly what you wanted - so, we've updated this, meaning you can now add your products to the system with the right values!
- Adding an Organisation when you add a New Contact
In the system there was a simple field that allowed you to just record the Company Name when you created a Contact, it allowed you search on it and that was about it. Then we added in Organisations which opened up a whole new set of features, but the two weren't linked. There is a setting within Setup and More > System Config called "Company Vs Organisation Customisation" which allows you to make more use of the Organisations and link them properly with Contacts. It is his link that we've improved! Now, if you have that setting ticked, when you add a contact you can either search for an existing one OR the system will create one for you! Simple :)
- Changes to Shortcuts
The Shortcut menu is a great tool - it allows you to quickly do something in the system in just one click without having to find the individual buttons within the system. The change we have made to this area is a simple one, in order to allow you to use the system more efficiently on the move, we've changed them from being pop-up dialog boxes to actual changes that you can navigate around and use on the move!
- Contact Search - Autocomplete
A great new addition to our usability mission is the fact that you can now have autocomplete on the search box with Contacts, we hope that this will save you time and make everything more seamless for you - not only that but you can now simply hit enter to search!
- Creating a Group from a Report
The feature for creating a Group from a Report that you've just created, is a great part of the system, however, for some larger reports it was a bit of a long process. So we've had a look at it and rebuilt it to run in the background - allowing you to carry on with the more important parts of your day. The system will then let you know when it's done and you can make full use of it! | <urn:uuid:e4441d0a-cbb5-4206-8591-2cb37c58eb26> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://support.intouchcrm.com/news/latest-update-from-intouch-24-02-2014 | 2020-09-19T11:43:56Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400191780.21/warc/CC-MAIN-20200919110805-20200919140805-00198.warc.gz | en | 0.95846 | 874 |
Durable with a sure grip, this model can tackle most outdoor tasks from splitting kindling to skinning, delimbing and chopping up food for a campfire dinner.
Is the SRK really the best survival rescue knife? Let’s find out.
The Cold Steel Brand – Facts You Need to Know
Cold Steel was founded over 30 years ago, and over the years, the company has changed the industry in quite a few ways. The company developed new blade steels, including the San Mai III and the Tri-Ad Lock locking device for folding knives.
This brand is constantly looking for new ways to innovate and change the industry. And their knives have a reputation for being the sharpest and strongest in the world. Now that you know a little bit about producer and the quality of their blades, let’s dive right into our review of the SRK.
My Analysis of 4 Main Features
1. Stainless Steel 6″ Blade with Black Tuff-Ex Finish
This model has a beautiful black blade that’s 5mm thick and 6” in length. It’s made with AUS 8A stainless steel and features a black Tuff-Ex finish. This finish is a non-stick coating that protects from the elements.
2. Special Rat Tail Tang
Pack at least one of these with you!
The SRK is full tang. I do want to note one thing, though: the blade runs the length of the handle, but not its width. This is what’s known as a “rat tail tang”. Technically, it’s still full one, and if the handle breaks, you can still use it as intended!
3. Kray-Ex Handle with Quillon Finger Guard
The handle on this knife is soft but sure. It’s 4 3/4” long, black in color, and features the brand’s unique Kray-Ex material. This is a product that feels good in your hands, and the checkered Kraton grip is surprisingly comfortable. It also features a single quillon finger guard.
The only issue I have with it is that you can’t use it as a hammer. Many other survival knives offer this, but the model we discuss here does not. Aside from this one minor drawback, the handle is solid and the grip is fantastic. It definitely won’t slip out of your hands.
4. Black & Durable Concealex Sheath
The SRK does come with a Concealex sheath. Like Cold Steel’s Kydex, this one is flexible, tough and resistant to impact and solvents. It features numerous loops and holes around the edges, so you can hang the knife on your belt, backpack or wherever you please.
The knife locks into it via friction. It’s a very tight fit at first, but removing and storing it a few times will break it in. Some users say they had a hard time getting used to this type of sheath, but I personally never had a problem with it. It’s comfortable and easy to clip onto my belt!
Field Test – What Use Is SRK Good for?
You will love these:
What is this model good for? Cold Steel markets it as a survival product. In fact, that’s what SRK stands for (Survival Rescue Knife). It’s a tough blade, and often used by military personnel and Navy Seals.
Keep in mind:
6 Pros vs. 2 Cons
- Tough checkered, non-slip grip
- Full tang, fixed blade for the utmost in durability
- Non-stick blade coating for protection from the elements
- Comes with a comfortable sheath
- Sturdy with a strong clip point
- Sheath is very tight at first
- Can’t be used as a baton or hammer
My Comparison of Cold Steel SRK with 4 Other Models
You should see this:
This is a great knife, but how does it compare to other models on the market?
1. Versus Fallkniven A1
The Falkniven A1 is another respected knife good for survival. Its blade is slightly larger than the SRK at 6.375” and it’s a bit heavier at 12.8 oz. (in comparison to 8.2 oz.).
The A1’s handle is also checkered for a sure grip, but it’s a little on the short side. It’s full tang too, so it’s extra durable.
Both products are right on par in terms of durability, stability and performance. But the A1 is more than double the price and does not offer the same protective coating on the blade.
2. Versus Buck 119 ($93.00)
The Buck 119 is more budget-friendly than the SRK, but doesn’t offer the same great features. For starters, the handle is smooth and phenolic, which means it can easily slip from your hands in greasy or wet situations. It’s lighter in weight and offers the same blade length.
Buck is a trusted name in the industry, but the 119 simply cannot compare to the SRK. For one thing, the 119 isn’t designed for emergency or tactical purposes. It’s designed for hunting or camping. That being said, the 119 is half the price!
The 119 is a great knife, but the other models handle is sturdier and easier to grip. As far as the blade is concerned, the SRK is designed for tactical and survival, while the 119 is designed for everyday use and hunting.
3. Versus Becker Campanion BK2 ($127.24)
The Becker Campanion BK2 is similar to the SRK as far as design is concerned. It features the same protective blade coating and the grip is solid. The BK2 has a fixed full tang with a 20-degree angle edge and is made from 1095 cro-van steel. The blade is about a half inch shorter at 5.5”.
As you may have guessed, the Campanion BK2 is designed for camping and outdoor enthusiasts. It’s durable, lightweight, and great for splitting kindling, skinning or cutting food.
Both knives are in the same price range and similar in terms of quality, performance and reliability.
4. Versus Kabar USMC ($123.47)
The Kabar USMC uses the most famous design in the world. Made from 1095 Cro-van steel, its blade is tough, sharp and durable. Its grip is leather, but features a unique design that’s slip-resistant. The SRK’s grip is a bit more reliable, but the USMC’s design is more appealing!
The USMC’s blade is 7” long with a straight edge. This is a marine corps fighting knife and a rat tail tang. This model is right on par with the SRK, and both are in the same price range
Official Price of $134.99 & Best Deals Available
The SRK retails for $135 on its official website, but you can purchase this very same model on various websites for much cheaper price:
- ColdSteel.com – Official price of $134.99!
- Amazon.com – Best deal, just $69.98 (as of 03/08/2015 12:53 PST Details)!
- eBay.com – Discounted offer of $92.30!
- Walmart.com – Free shipping with price of $106.88!
Keep in mind:
The survival rescue knife is worth every penny! With a full tang, sharp blade, reliable grip and durable design, this is the model you want by your side in a critical situation.
From splitting kindling to skinning game, it can tackle most outdoor jobs with ease. The checked grip prevents slips and accidents in wet or greasy situations.
Keep in mind:
Its generous-sized blade makes this model a great option for your outdoor adventures. I highly recommend the Cold Steel SRK to anyone looking for a reliable, durable survival knife! | <urn:uuid:a94fb694-e5c3-4f97-89ee-370f6a977c85> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://survingoo.com/cold-steel-srk-the-best-survival-rescue-knife/ | 2020-09-19T11:48:42Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400191780.21/warc/CC-MAIN-20200919110805-20200919140805-00198.warc.gz | en | 0.924026 | 1,713 |

1. ClickFunnels Requirement Strategy – $97/month.
The conventional strategy includes all of the features you would require within ClickFunnels, yet with constraints on the number of funnels (20) and web pages (100) you can have in your account, in addition to the number of site visitors (20K) could see your pages monthly.

ClickFunnels versus Everyone Else.
Many individuals ask just how ClickFunnels as compares to other landing web page contractors such as Leadpages, Unbounce, and Infusionsoft.
For the most part it’s not actually a reasonable contrast since each of these devices succeeds is one area or the other.
The chart over gives a detailed evaluation – yet I’ll highlight several of the major contrasts below.
ClickFunnels vs Leadpages
Prior to ClickFunnels, Leadpages was the huge canine.
Leadpages is simply a lead capture software – nothing even more. You can produce touchdown web pages, lead boxes, collect leads … that’s pretty much it. Additionally, the Leadpages design templates are additionally limited on modification.
ClickFunnels is much more flexible – it’s much easier to utilize as well as does so a lot more compared to develop lead capture pages.
Basically, Leadpages is actually just a touchdown page builder, while ClickFunnels is focused around building very integrated funnels.
ClickFunnels vs Infusionsoft
Infusionsoft is not a landing web page or sales page building contractor. It has some of that functionality constructed it, yet that’s not just what it’s understood for.
At it’s core, Infusionsoft is a CRM platform – one that allows you to manage your entire client database. ClickFunnels has this capability with Actionetics, but it’s not almost as advanced as Infusionsoft.
Infusionsoft is likewise exceptionally expensive and also forces every brand-new client to pay $2000 for a compulsory kickstart training package simply to discover ways to use the complex system (which is infamously tough to utilize).
ClickFunnels Associate Program
There are two main courses people drop as ClickFunnels individuals.
Those that opt to use the tool for their service – in hopes of eventually achieve the Two Comma Club (over $1M in profits).
As well as those that have an interest in earning passive income as a ClickFunnels Affiliate and also winning the Desire Vehicle Contest (where they pay $500/$1000 towards your desire automobile if you get to 100/200 energetic month-to-month signups, respectively).
With a massive 40% month-to-month reoccuring compensation, ClickFunnels conveniently has one of the best affiliate programs of any kind of system available.
That’s right – you make money a recurring 40% compensation on every affiliate signup you make via the ClickFunnels Associate Program. However, what does that truly equate to?
The standard strategy is a $97/month financial investment and the Etison Suite plan is a $297/month financial investment. for that reason you make $38.80 per standard strategy as well as $118.80 each Etison Suite strategy … every month!
Generally, every 100 signups will certainly bring in $4000/month in affiliate payments (more or less depending on the number of Etison Plan customers remain in there).
All-time Low Line
ClickFunnels is by far the greatest system if you are looking to conveniently develop high transforming sales funnels.
Because it was developed from scratch to be the very best sales channel contractor, it vanquishes all of the competition in that regard.
Externally, it could not be the least expensive product available – however if you use it to its complete capability, your business will certainly become more profitable and you will certainly save cash from not needing to make use of other tools. PayPal Netspend Login

There are different ways to make money. Some people have a mainstream cash source, and they stash away some funds in investments; others, in contrast, get involved in side-businesses along with their mainstream cash source. According to us, such side-businesses or “side-hustles” are the real gold mines!
Talking about side-hustles, you can explore many alongside your job, but engaging in them will mean sacrificing your time and energy. And that’s why you need to consider your capital, time, and skill before you head into such a venture.
Well, guess what, here we have some of the most sought after side-hustles you can venture into without too much of a hassle. Get ready to count those incoming pennies!
This is a highly demanded hustle all over the world because everyone wants to express through pictures. Getting into graphic design requires dedication, time, and creativity. But once you get the hang of it, it will definitely be a plus for you and your bank account! If you establish a stable graphic designing career, you can earn at least $1,000 in a month. With a laptop and graphic design tools like Adobe Photoshop, Adobe Illustrator, or Corel Draw, you’re good to go!
If you love writing, this is for you. Everybody writes, but not everybody can deliver great content. The good thing is, you can master this art with practice. Don’t be scared by the number of bloggers around you; instead, just focus on being a better blogger. Pick select niches and write exciting pieces.
This is another field that’s highly demanded these days, but funnily enough, people aren’t really into it. Everybody needs content, whether it’s written words, videos, pictures, or memes, even the billion dollars companies aren’t left out. Content is what sells products.
And creating content is thus a money-magnet currently. Come to think of it, it’s quite simple to learn, just like blogging. The only difference is that a content creator writes for a specific audience, and the writing performs a particular action.
This may sound absurd, but don’t refute it without consideration. Uber driving is one of the most remarkable ways to make some cash. There are two ways to tap into the gold in Uber driving.

The Power to Repel
We at Alfresco have never rushed into developing new products because we care about getting out what is right for you, our loyal fans, rather than just looking at the financials.
The Alfresco Concept (1996) was developed in a London medicinal garden with perfumers and cosmeticians who cared about my love of cosmetics combined with me getting bitten to bits by bugs.
Over the past few years Alfresco listened to our customers and today we are happy to deliver on our promise to give you a bigger range of skin lotions and another matching fragrance.
More choices, More products, More Alfresco! LESS BITES
It's taken the best part of 5 years (or more if I’m honest) to bring into our production a BRAND NEW ANTI BUG BITE blend.
We called them Flower Power and Planet Power, based on my old-fashioned favourite 60s fragrances, combined with my love of our planet.
Flower Power with matching cologne contains these essential oils; rosewood, spicy coriander, grapefruit, cedarwood, jasmine, vetiver, vanilla, crystal amber. No wonder that it smells delicious right?
Planet Power with matching cologne contains these essential oils; geranium oil (Chinese) patchouli oil (English) lavender oil, lavandin (English) chamomile (English)
I’ve always been interested in skincare therefore our new anti-bug bite lotions had to be as good as our Moisturiser. We developed and are proud of the super hydrating, baby soft skin feel the products will leave you with.
We only use the best of the best ingredients which are as natural as can be. Find out more
We also developed the best ever botanical blend of essential oils.
On our anti bug bite side, for over 20 years we have been working with our tropical medicine research laboratory in London.
Exactly like Classic Moisturiser 1996 but different to give you choices.
My idea and what I do is mix the powers lotions, classic and spray perfumes,
Mix, match or wear alone. Our product’s focus is anti-bug but as cosmetics/fragrances we are free to personalise make alfresco unique to you.
Now it is your turn to TRY THEM.
Flower Power & Planet Power with spray perfumes to match are now available online to buy.
It’s hard to believe such beautiful fragrances keep bugs away but they do!
We take care to produce the best
Please take care out there with your alfresco | <urn:uuid:5066e8e9-a487-4645-980d-1d47f357ba7a> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://www.alfrescoshop.com/blogs/news/the-power-to-repel | 2020-09-19T12:22:59Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400191780.21/warc/CC-MAIN-20200919110805-20200919140805-00198.warc.gz | en | 0.918907 | 559 |

One of the lessons parents teach their children is to leave the world a better place than the one they found. In the area of environmental stewardship, parents can set examples though choices of vehicles, lifestyle choices and the simple act of recycling sets an example that is re-enforced weekly. Upgrading your attic insulation in Minto is another example that our kids can learn from because it provides a level of social awareness that will govern energy use and conservation. There is a big problem in many communities, and that is a lack of attic insulation in Minto. The lack of attic insulation in Minto is contributing to greenhouse gas emissions. Many homes have inadequate or have no insulation that form the basis of unintended consequences of climate change. Heat release through the home, the attic specifically, is 40 per cent of all heat use in a home. Four tenths of your home heating bill is going up in smoke through your roof due to poor attic insulation in Minto and that creates excess greenhouse gases that are the driver of climate change. For responsible energy sue and conservation the installation of new attic insulation in Minto can reduce consumption and create efficiency through completion of the project. When you add new attic insulation in Minto you can expect financial benefits to follow. Experts have told us about heat loss and they also advise that a return on investment is available when new attic insulation is Minto is installed. A homeowner can save 20-30 per cent in energy costs with new attic insulation in Minto and those savings run into perpetuity.
At AM Roofing Solutions, we have many years educating consumers on the benefits of energy conservation through with new attic insulation in Minto and it isn’t rocket science.
We have chosen Owen Corning as our insulation supplier due to the superior quality of the product. It is made with 73-per-cent recycled glass, it will hold its’ R-value longer than the competition and is the top selling insulation across the country. Owens Corning was responsible for the invention and development of fiberglass insulation 70 years ago.
We have been working with Owens Corning for many years and our affiliation has created a strong business relationship. The bond is so strong that they have certified our company as their only Canadian Platinum Preferred Contractor for all their materials.

September Winners Wall Announced at Platinum Play Casino
October 10, 2012
It's important that online casino players feel appreciated where they play at, and one good way to make players feel like an online casino cares is when big wins are celebrated. For an online casino to celebrate with a player when he or she makes a big score is very important because it makes players feel like they aren't just a number. Platinum Play Casino really has this one figured out with their Winners Wall. Each month, the top winners from a number of different categories are celebrated and put on display, and these wins don't even have to be from Platinum Play Casino. This gives players bragging rights to go along with their big wins.
The September Winners Wall had a number of large scores. The biggest win for the month was awarded to Sharon S., a player who picked up $110,143 from the Retro Reels Diamond Glitz game. This is a life-changing amount of money that Sharon won just for playing one of her favorite games. A player named Samuel D. barely made the September cut-off date because his big win of $64,173 was picked up on the first of the month. This got Samuel the Top Progressive Winner award for September, and he won his prize playing Supa Jax video poker. Patricia F. picked up a prize for having the biggest win in one of the weeks of September for a $25,766 win playing the multi-hand version of Dbl Dbl Bonus video poker at Vegas Palms Casino.
Another big weekly winner goes by the name of Luca, and this lucky player picked up a nice $31,660 prize playing the popular Tomb Raider: Secret of the Sword game. This is a very popular game that has given players a lot of big wins over the years. The largest win in a mobile casino game was given to Tosh P. of Australia. Tosh picked up a 2,354 AUD prize with the mobile version of the Mermaid Millions video slot.
Platinum Play Casino is one of the most popular online casinos currently running. They operate using the Microgaming online casino software, and they have been around since 2004. Platinum Play Casino is very big on letting players know that they are appreciated, and that is why this online casino is so well-known in the industry for its generous promotions and its monthly Winners Wall. This online casino does a lot to show the players that they care, and that's one reason that they are so popular. | <urn:uuid:c599705a-2a45-402a-9847-93dcc337326f> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://www.australiancasinosites.com/news/september-winners-wall-announced-at-platinum-play-casino/ | 2020-09-19T12:06:04Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400191780.21/warc/CC-MAIN-20200919110805-20200919140805-00198.warc.gz | en | 0.980988 | 503 |
In new research on enterprise architecture tools Avolution’s ABACUS received the highest product scores in 3 of the 5 Use Cases.
The December 2019 Gartner report “Critical Capabilities for Enterprise Architecture Tools”* evaluated Avolution’s ABACUS, which received the highest use case scores for the Architecture Modeling Use Case (4.20 out of 5), Rearchitecting the Enterprise for Transformation Use Case (3.88 out of 5) and Innovation Use Case (3.80 out of 5).
In the report, Gartner, the world’s leading research and advisory company, evaluates enterprise architecture tools. It explains that “Critical capabilities’ are attributes that differentiate products/services in a class in terms of their quality and performance. Gartner recommends that users consider the set of critical capabilities as some of the most important criteria for acquisition decisions.”*
Avolution’s Dr Tim O’Neill said: “To engage effectively across the business, architects need to provide quick, intuitive access to information.
“Architecture is often about giving people a unified view of technology and business strategy. It is also increasingly data-driven: metrics need to be relevant, transparent and easy to update.
“In the 2020s, we believe visualizations and regular data-driven reporting are key to motivating decision-makers. ABACUS’ interactive Gantt charts, Graph View for modeling enterprise relationships, and no-code algorithms for setting up analytics provide ways to visually explore data so it is understood by users across the enterprise.
“We believe this Gartner analysis recognises ABACUS’ performance for Use Cases in demand from large, high-growth businesses.”
In October 2019, Gartner recognized Avolution as a Leader in its Magic Quadrant for Enterprise Architecture Tools**. | <urn:uuid:5fffcf2a-b561-48ab-9830-65f2f26194ff> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://www.avolutionsoftware.com/news/avolution-recognized-in-2019-gartner-critical-capabilities-for-enterprise-architecture-tools/ | 2020-09-19T12:32:45Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400191780.21/warc/CC-MAIN-20200919110805-20200919140805-00198.warc.gz | en | 0.909014 | 389 |
They say the first step in solving a problem is recognizing you have one. I received a lot of comments a few weeks ago following publication of my piece on an undercover activist’s video depicting abuse of young dairy calves on a Colorado calf growing farm. This week, another video surfaced; this one from a pig operation in Oklahoma.
The comments I received regarding the Colorado case took me to task for understating the problem, and not calling out those where the problems are disproportionately directed from. Their point was simple – almost all of these revelations of abuse come from very specific entities within our industry, the first being the dairy industry. And we’re doing everyone a disservice by not calling a spade a spade and dealing directly with the heart of the problem.
I’ll admit that their words stung a little bit because I know they’re right. The problem with being a true fan of this industry and an active participant in it is my tendency to not want to offend anyone. I hate painting any group with too broad of a brush because the majority within that group are usually very good people with good motives.
As I’ve said, the vast majority of producers are great people, but the reality is that a hugely disproportionate number of problems associated with downer cows, drug residues, and animal welfare in general can be associated with the dairy industry. Perhaps it’s because of that sector’s reliance on hired labor, part of which doesn’t share the animal husbandry ethic. Perhaps it can be explained by the almost corporate or assembly-line approach that characterizes that industry.
Subscribe now to Cow-Calf Weekly to get the latest industry research and information in your inbox every Friday!
Regardless of the reasons, the fact is that the ethos we hold so dear regarding animal welfare in the cow-calf industry just isn’t as strong in the dairy industry. We’ve seen similar breakdowns in the poultry and pork industry, where employees aren’t vested in the animal production system in the same way that we typically see in cow-calf production.
The bottom line is that while there’s nothing inherently wrong with large-scale animal production, the system is far more likely to break down when workers are employed who don’t inherently share the love of animals and don’t have a vested interest in an operation from an ownership, profit, or value standpoint. It’s a failure of management, a failure of supervision, and a failure of education.
Some of these operations are failing in replicating the mindset, values and culture that have always been the foundation of our industry. Thus, it’s no surprise that the other problems we’ve seen regarding animal abuse are primarily from situations that reflect this same dynamic, whether it’s in sale barns, feedyards, etc.
As an industry, we must embrace the fact that this is a nexus – a point where animal welfare issues tend to arise. This is where our industry has occasionally failed. I’ve especially been guilty of standing up for the overwhelming majority of producers who do a great job, and I’ve failed to recognize that our industry responsibility is to uphold a zero-tolerance policy.
These instances of abuse are unacceptable and unworthy of such a great industry as ours. Ethics and morals, as well as economics, dictate that animal welfare should be every producer’s top priority. Failing to address these isolated problems, regardless of how rare they are, jeopardizes our entire industry.

The DAI stablecoin briefly lost its dollar peg, following collateral liquidations for the clients of DeFi Saver. The decentralized finance tool aggregates Ethereum-based lending and collateralization projects like Maker DAO and Compound, allowing users to control all from one wallet.
But the automatization process failed to work properly due to Ethereum network overload. Collaterals were liquidated to cover for the extreme movement of ETH, which wiped out around 20% of its price in a rapid mid-week crash.
DeFi Saver announced its systems are now working properly, but pointed out that decentralized finance held risks and urged users to do their own research.
Maker DAO accepts ETH collaterals to issue DAI, but if the ETH price moves too fast, the “biting” function fires, selling the collaterals and cutting a liquidation fee.
DAI currently recovered to $1.01, but just within a day lost most of its supply. DAI recently grew to 89 million coins, but after the liquidations, supply fell to 79 million coins. MKR market prices remain relatively stable at 451.10.
ETH fell to $169.98, from a rather encouraging recent peak at above $220. The Maker DeFi lending scheme holds nearly 1.5 million ETH, for an over-collateralized creation of DAI.
The Ethereum network, however, is taken over by one smart contract burning up 50% of the gas. The Fair Win FOMO game is relentless, buying up blocks and preventing other applications from achieving the distributed computation required for their smart contracts. At peak, the game took as much as 59% of gas, causing the fatal slowdown of transactions for DeFi Saver.
Despite the relatively small supply, DAI coins are well-distributed within the crypto ecosystem. Maker has plans for expansion, to use multiple collaterals and even traditional assets to back the creation of DAI. But the risks for the coin may keep affecting side projects and hurt individual investors. | <urn:uuid:7bc17037-fb4b-4b4a-89c2-ca9f6db828af> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://www.bitcoinisle.com/2019/09/26/dai-stablecoin-hit-by-ethereum-eth-congestion/ | 2020-09-19T12:39:13Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400191780.21/warc/CC-MAIN-20200919110805-20200919140805-00198.warc.gz | en | 0.946896 | 417 |
In the United States, the authority to regulate medical professionals lies with the states. To practice within a state, clinicians must obtain a license from that state’s government. State statutes dictate standards for licensing and disciplining medical professionals. They also list tasks clinicians are allowed to perform. One view is that state licensing of medical professionals assures quality.
In contrast, I argue here that licensure not only fails to protect consumers from incompetent physicians, but, by raising barriers to entry, makes health care more expensive and less accessible. Institutional oversight and a sophisticated network of private accrediting and certification organizations, all motivated by the need to protect reputations and avoid legal liability, offer whatever consumer protections exist today.
Consumers would benefit were states to eliminate professional licensing in medicine and leave education, credentialing, and scope‐of‐practice decisions entirely to the private sector and the courts.
If eliminating licensing is politically infeasible, some preliminary steps might be generally acceptable. States could increase workforce mobility by recognizing licenses issued by other states. For mid‐level clinicians, eliminating education requirements beyond an initial degree would allow employers and consumers to select the appropriate level of expertise. At the very least, state legislators should be alert to the self‐interest of medical professional organizations that may lie behind the licensing proposals brought to the legislature for approval. | <urn:uuid:60df5f6a-af29-4082-8504-7acf27765d4b> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://www.cato.org/publications/policy-analysis/medical-licensing-obstacle-affordable-quality-care | 2020-09-19T12:49:54Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400191780.21/warc/CC-MAIN-20200919110805-20200919140805-00198.warc.gz | en | 0.945358 | 269 |

The Apple iPad is a line of touchscreen tablet computers designed and produced by Apple Inc since 2010. Functioning on Apple’s iOS operating system, the iPad satisfies the technology gap between the markets of a typical laptop and a smartphone. Because of its larger display compared to the iPhone, the Apple iPad is often used for productivity, graphics, video-editing and e-reading.
Apple's first iPad was introduced in 2010 and ever since then, it has revolutionized the tablet market. Encased by a large touch screen, the Apple iPad is used the same way a smartphone is used with the bonuses of productivity, graphics, and video editing. Running Apple’s iOS system, Apple iPads can be used to replace laptop computers since they are small and pack a punch in power and speed. Apple iPads come in various sizes; such as, the iPad Mini is the smallest iPad with a 7.9” screen or the iPad Pro which is the biggest iPad coming in with a 12.9” screen. | <urn:uuid:94182161-bb31-498e-8cc6-b63733a843e3> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://www.dimensions.com/collection/apple-ipad | 2020-09-19T11:45:16Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400191780.21/warc/CC-MAIN-20200919110805-20200919140805-00198.warc.gz | en | 0.942144 | 206 |

The Licznerski family have been growing and selling cactuses for nearly half a century. Initially, they sold to friends and acquaintances. Today, they own the biggest cactus farm in Poland and ship internationally.
“Our customers are my greatest source of motivation. The more demanding they are, the more determined I am to work harder. I’m delighted that I’ve passed on my passion to other family members, who’ve been very supportive from day one. I can proudly say that cactuses are our entire life.” - Piotr Licznerski
The family tradition started when Piotr Licznerski visited his first cactus exhibition in the 1960s. It changed his life, as it was then that he decided that he wanted his own cactus collection. Shortly afterwards, he left for Erfurt, Germany to meet a world-famous cactus expert from whom he purchased his first seeds. Aged 70, he enrolled in a postgraduate course and, as the oldest alumnus in Europe, did his Master’s in growing cactuses in vitro. He wanted to learn more about the plants, create new species and better respond to the needs of collectors around the world.
Today, one can hardly find a bigger or more diverse collection of cactuses than that of the Licznerski family. Piotr’s daughters, who are truly dedicated to the family business, helped him start selling on eBay. Entering the global market was a major breakthrough. It only took a few hours to sell the first 12 plants on eBay. Today, they sell between 50 and 100 a day. As many as 99% are rare species bought by collectors worldwide | <urn:uuid:92ad4870-3256-4603-ba14-ff04ad1e22ff> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://www.ebayinc.com/company/partner-to-sellers/meet-our-sellers/piotr-licznerski/ | 2020-09-19T12:49:52Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400191780.21/warc/CC-MAIN-20200919110805-20200919140805-00198.warc.gz | en | 0.976788 | 355 |

- An astonishing piece of research and the author’s life’s work
- Part three of a three-part series
- Superbly illustrated with 794 unpublished mono photographs
In the turbulent times of the post-First World War era, new political parties emerged frequently in Germany, many with opposing extremist policies. The Communist movement grew out of the Socialist working classes using the Russian Bolshevik Party as a template. In direct opposition, the new National Socialist German Workers’ Party under the leadership of Adolf Hitler occupied the extreme right-wing position. Head-on conflict was inevitable and both parties organised violent demonstrations against the other.
Hitler recognised that he was physically vulnerable and ordered the formation of his own protection squad, made up of loyal men who would not shirk from a fight. From the rudimentary ranks of Hitler’s select few grew the infant SS, a modern praetorian guard, which developed over the years into a massive and efficient military style force with tentacles spreading into all elements of everyday life in Nazi Germany. To administer this organisation, Hitler appointed leaders upon whom he could rely.
Many names remain obscure, but this book highlights who they all were and how they appeared.

As news breaks today of the possibility that retiring people may be required to pay as much as £20,000 towards the costs of their health care, is retirement at aged 65 a luxury that we, as a country, can’t afford?
With the charity Age Concern reporting that a third of people reaching the age of 65 cannot financially afford to retire, and the newspapers reporting that a staggering 9 out of 10 of private pension funds don’t have enough money to cover pay outs, more and more people over retirement age are being forced to continue working longer in order to cover their living costs.
As the latest figures show unemployment at the highest rate since 1997, and only looking likely to get worse with more reduncancies on the horizon, it does not look like the figures can add up unless something is done. While I agree that there are those who more than deserve for the country, that they have worked all their lives for, to look after them in the Autumn of their lives. I can’t help but think that maybe with a growing elderly population and the ever-growing unemployment figure that retirement at aged 65 is now a luxury that we, in the current financial climate, cannot afford. | <urn:uuid:20b8434e-643b-4368-98f7-1ed5b8e8fae7> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://www.froodee.com/in-the-news/retirement-a-luxury-or-a-right/ | 2020-09-19T12:47:22Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400191780.21/warc/CC-MAIN-20200919110805-20200919140805-00198.warc.gz | en | 0.982892 | 245 |
Unless you’ve been living under an internet free rock, you’ll definitely have heard about Muslim model Halima Aden by now. The 19-year-old Somali-American made headlines last November after becoming the first hijab wearing contestant in the Miss Minnesota USA beauty pageant.
Since then, she's been busy breaking barriers in the fashion industry by landing a contract with world famous modelling agency, IMG, and making her runway debuts at major New York and Milan AW17 fashion week shows including Kanye West's Yeezy Season 5, Max Mara and Alberta Feretti.
Halima is fast becoming the new face of a more diverse and progressive fashion industry, and last month during her trip to London for the International Somali Awards 2017, she opened up to GLAMOUR about her rollercoaster journey to overnight fame – something she seems yet to have wrapped her own head around...
“Right after the pageant, my cousin sent me a screenshot and was like ‘omg girl, there are pages of news about you on Google’ and I was like eeek that’s crazy!” she recalled as she sat down with GLAMOUR's Sagal Mohammed. “A lot has changed in my life - obviously I never had all of these opportunities before. But I’m still very much grounded, now more than ever.”
Halima, who was born in a Kenyan refugee camp but raised in St. Cloud, Minnesota, explained that she'd never envisioned a modelling career for herself before, mainly because she hadn’t seen anyone like her in the fashion world: “I never saw a girl wearing a hijab walking the runways or on magazine covers, and in a way that’s our own fault [as well as the industry’s]. No one really puts themselves out there. I know I wouldn’t have but because of the pageant it just all kind of worked out really well.”
The new model admitted that she entered the pageant because she wanted to find out how her community would react. “It’s a good platform and it celebrates women from all over Minnesota,” she said. “I know that for me, a lot of people will look at me and they’ll think ‘Somali’ or ‘outsider’ instead of Minnesota. So I wanted to kind of challenge myself and challenge my community to find out, ‘what would the people of Minnesota say about this?’ It was really something new because I didn’t know what the reaction would be.”
Never did she imagine that the next day, she’d receive a call from fashion icon and editor of CR Fashion Book, Carine Roitfeld asking her to be on the cover of the magazine. Roitfield took Halima under her wing and even made her debut runway appearance happen when she put her in contact with Kanye West for his Yeezy Season 5 show back in February.
Reflecting on her first runway experience, Halima said: “My heart was literally about to explode – there were so many people. And on top of that, everyone was taking pictures and filming videos so I was thinking I better not trip. I know all the biggest supermodels have had their moments [falling over] but I wasn’t about to have all the angry Somali sisters like ‘girl, you were supposed to represent us and then you face plant, break a neck, break a nose and ruin your career in the first month’ that would have been funny.”
Luckily, she had the likes of supermodel sisters Gigi and Bella Hadid showing her the ropes when they worked together during the Max Mara show at Milan Fashion Week.“They were so nice and even more beautiful in person,” Halima gushed. “They’re kind of like my fashion catwalk fairy god sisters.”
“You’d think someone as big as Gigi wouldn’t have time to tell me how it all works but she was giving me advice and telling me things I wouldn’t even think to ask about because I was so star struck – I was literally fangirling,” she recalled of their first encounter.
“There’s a picture on Instagram where I’m next to Gigi and I’m doing the weirdest thing with my arms [laughs]. Remind me if I’m ever around Gigi Hadid to pay attention to my body movements because I promise, I don’t look that ridiculous in real life.”
And that she's right about. When we met her at the International Somali Awards, Halima stunned in a bespoke red ball gown by up and coming fashion label Buno Designs matched with a cream coloured hijab.
Like many others in Minnesota (there's a large Somali community there), Halima was raised in a traditionally Somali household by her mother, who on the topic of boys, has a very strict view. So when asked how she would deal with dating rumours (let’s face it, they’re inevitable once you’re in the public eye) the young model said her mum would be right on it...
“My mom will shut down those rumours real quick,” she laughed. “She will hold a press conference in Somali and she will shut it all down, I’m not even kidding. She’d be like ‘Halima no dates, no boy, haram, haram, haram’ [haram means it’s a sin]”
We’d totally want to attend that press conference…
Halima’s honesty didn’t stop there. The star was refreshingly candid about her lack of fashion knowledge, saying: "to be honest, before I joined the industry I knew very little about the fashion world and I hardly knew any name brands."
"Probably because the price tags were a little too high and home girl needed to work," she laughed - we're so with her on that one.
"But honestly, I never knew designers before this and now I see that what they do is really art," she continued. "Some of the stuff that they make isn’t every day wear but you appreciate it – it’s kind of like when you go to a museum or a gallery, it’s so different from our regular pictures at home but still it’s beautiful."
She has a point. And we don't doubt that her appreciation for fashion will evolve as her career flourishes. We've got high hopes for you, Halima!

This post is sponsored by Coinstar. All opinions are 100% my own.
‘Tis the season for joy and the smiles on everyones face. It’s also the season for giving, which can throw the holiday budget out of line. With the help of Coinstar, you are in luck and the kids can even get in on the action this year.
Stretch Your Holiday Budget with Coinstar
My boys love this time of year, but then again what kid doesn’t love the holidays? Right? They get all the newest toys and gadgets on the market while our pocket books get a little thinner. To keep our budget in line each year, I do a combination of things that help us have a little extra money in our pocket as we roll into the new year. Today I’m focusing on only one way that helps with the budget and also teaches kids to stretch their holiday budget as well.
Change coins into cash. If your household is anything like ours, you have change laying around almost everywhere. Whether it’s hidden in a couch from falling out of your pocket or you empty your wallet out once a week into a money jar. Coin change is a part of our lives.
Coins are money, too and they are a great way for kids to get into the gift giving spirit. Not only does it give them the joy of giving to others, but it can also teach them about budgeting. I’m all about teaching my boys a life lesson and this year we are doing just that.
It didn’t take long for us to locate a Coinstar location in our area. Our local Walmart had one right as we entered the doors. My son was so excited to use the coin counter at the Coinstar machine and change is pennies, nickels, dimes and quarters into cash so he could go shopping this year. After a few short minutes, we had our receipt in hand to get his spending money. It was like he hit the jackpot. He was so excited.
Instead of immediately hitting the store shelves and overspending, we had to come up with a budget for his cash and a gift idea list. He needed an action plan in place that consisted of who all he was buying for this year and how much he would be spending on each person. While $15 may not seem like a ton of money to us, it’s like winning the lottery for a kid. That’s a lot of dough…as he says. :)
After coming up with his holiday gift list, he realized that it was going to cost more than he had. So we doubled it and now he’s ready to hit the stores this weekend and has his gift list in tow. I can’t wait to see the smiling faces when everyone opens their gifts from him. He put a lot of work into coming up with the perfect gifts for everyone on his list and he will be under budget too!
Get the Most Out of All Your Money with these tips from Coinstar
Control it with cash. The need to get holiday spending under control might explain why 50 percent of holiday gift givers usually pay for most or all of their presents with cash.
Coins are money, too. While 85 percent of Americans report that they have spare change lying around, 86 percent of survey respondents would not feel comfortable buying holiday gifts with just coins.
Gift card collectors. More than half (58 percent) of Americans are holding at least one gift card and many of these gift cards might be lying around for some time before they get used. In fact, 48 percent of Americans admit that when they receive gift cards they wait to use them or never use them at all.
Money going to waste. Many people look for ways to ensure that they can get gifts for everyone on their list, but only 12 percent sell gift cards to help stretch their budget. That still leaves a lot of money – more than $1 billion in gift cards goes unredeemed annually – that could be used to bolster holiday budgets. | <urn:uuid:6c01c9c9-9872-4add-8797-a184efdf8cdc> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://www.momsconfession.com/coinstar/ | 2020-09-19T11:22:52Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400191780.21/warc/CC-MAIN-20200919110805-20200919140805-00198.warc.gz | en | 0.973303 | 836 |
My Journey | Naturopathic Medicine Week 2020
Happy Naturopathic Medicine Week!
This is a week for education and celebration 🎉
Throughout the week I'm going to be sharing the 𝟔 𝐏𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐜𝐢𝐩𝐥𝐞𝐬 𝐨𝐟 𝐍𝐚𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐨𝐩𝐚𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐜 𝐌𝐞𝐝𝐢𝐜𝐢𝐧𝐞. These are the principles that, as students and graduates, NDs honour to uphold and follow. They are the basis for our education and they are responsible for the differences between an allopathic doctor and a naturopathic doctor!
Today I want to share a bit about myself and why I'm studying naturopathic medicine!
I always knew that I wanted to work in healthcare and for much of my undergrad I thought that I would be working in a lab. I love the technical aspect of lab work and I also really love research.
After watching my friend and compounding pharmacist treat patients with supplements and compounded hormones, I realized that maybe a profession in which I could do a similar job would be a good fit.
I searched online, talked to a friend in the ND program and decided to apply.
So, what drew me to this profession? Everything. The ND that treated me. The principles of naturopathic medicine. The focus on treatment of a whole person and not just the disease. The focus on prevention. EVERYTHING.
And here I am. I just finished my second year, I'm on a 5 year plan, and am looking forward to September when I can get back to classroom learning and challenging myself!
I'm happy you're here and hopefully you'll learn something from my journey! | <urn:uuid:e946b5b7-613b-4816-9157-36d59c1c89ec> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://www.nathennessey.com/post/my-journey-naturopathic-medicine-week-2020 | 2020-09-19T12:32:29Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400191780.21/warc/CC-MAIN-20200919110805-20200919140805-00198.warc.gz | en | 0.965238 | 413 |

AECOM and Pininfarina Win Istanbul New Airport Design Competition (Photo: Business Wire)
The win marks AECOM’s first collaboration with Pininfarina, the design house renowned for its car designs for Ferrari and Alfa Romeo, among others. The collaboration combines the expertise of AECOM’s architectural and engineering teams with Pininfarina’s distinctive architectural style that epitomises speed and movement, influenced by automotive design.
Yusuf Akçayoğlu, chief executive officer of İGA, said: “One of the world’s largest aviation projects, Istanbul New Airport’s air traffic control tower will be an iconic structure, visible to all passengers travelling through the airport. We were looking for a striking design fit for a 21st century airport while remaining sensitive to Istanbul’s unique heritage. We received excellent designs from all over the world and are delighted to announce the AECOM and Pininfarina team as the competition winner.”
The ATC will be the landmark for Istanbul New Airport, which is set to be the world’s largest new airport in terms of annual passenger capacity. The competition scope was to deliver the concept designs for the tower, showcasing contemporary sustainable architectural design that reflects the multi-cultural and historical characteristics of Istanbul city.
The AECOM and Pininfarina design evokes the aerodynamic forms used in automotive and aviation design, and includes an elliptical tower that will be visible to all passengers flying in and out of the new airport. The tower shape is inspired by the tulip, which has been the symbol of Istanbul for many centuries and is an important cultural reference in Turkish history.
Jennifer Dixon, head of architecture, Europe, Middle East, India and Africa, AECOM, said: “In this competition, our aim was to combine the dynamism and romance of Pininfarina’s architectural style that is so influenced by automotive design with AECOM’s in-house aviation architecture capabilities. The AECOM and Pininfarina team has created a beautiful and highly functional piece that rekindles the excitement and glamour of modern air travel at the crossroads of Europe and Asia.”
Bernardo Gogna, senior vice president and director of global aviation, AECOM, said: “Our approach to this competition was to combine the expertise of a different design industry with AECOM’s in-house aviation architecture and engineering capabilities. Our goal was to bring Pininfarina’s values, which are grounded in tradition and craftsmanship, to the world of aviation. The result marries pure iconic beauty with true innovation.”
Paolo Pininfarina, chairman of Pininfarina, said: “The Istanbul ATC for the New Airport is an iconic building, destined to become a landmark for Istanbul. Our aim, as with all our projects, was to develop a bespoke idea that embodied our partner’s design identity while at the same time bringing a new aesthetic perspective. By leveraging the unique combination of our 85 years’ experience in design – from cars to superyachts, and from luxury products to furniture – with our architectural knowledge gained from several projects around the world, we have been able to create a technologically advanced structure of distinctive character.”
The design competition is the latest win for AECOM at Istanbul New Airport. Earlier this year it was appointed by İGA to deliver designs for all the airside works at the airport. The new airport will have an initial capacity of 90 million passengers per year. It will be located on the European side of the city, 35 kilometres from the centre on a site adjacent to the Black Sea. Subsequent planned phases will expand the airport to include six runways and three terminal buildings. When all phases are complete, the airport will have an annual capacity of up to 200 million passengers.
İGA is a consortium of five leading Turkish contractors comprising Cengiz, MAPA, Limak, Kolin and Kalyon. İGA was awarded the concession to build Istanbul New Airport as the engineering, procurement and construction contractor and will also be the operator. In October, İGA secured a €4.5 billion loan from a group of six banks for the first phase of the project.

ACC’s latest Warrior Open winner, ex-Marine Andrew Bachelder, used golf to recover following deadly helicopter crash in Afghanistan
For Andrew Bachelder, golf represents more than just a game. In some ways, the retired Marine Staff Sergeant believed the sport saved his life.
“If I wasn’t on the golf course I don’t really know where I would be or what I would be doing,” said Bachelder, who will play in the American Century Championship July 19-24 at Edgewood Tahoe Golf Course. “Golf pulled me out of the rut and got me back onto the track that I was capable of — and made me the person I was capable of being.”
Bachelder punched his ticket to Lake Tahoe by winning the 2015 Warrior Open last October in Texas. In his third year playing in the 36-hole tournament that features military veterans severely wounded since Sept. 11, 2001, the Texan achieved his objective of winning it all.
“I’m just over the moon for it,” Bachelder said of playing in the ACC. “That was my whole goal when they first started the program — that’s what I set as my goal and I achieved it. I can’t wait — I’m excited.”
Bachelder played two rounds at Edgewood Tahoe in mid-June, his first time on the course. It wasn’t the ex-Marine’s first visit to the South Shore, where he lived for eight months after graduating high school in 2000.
“The scenery at Lake Tahoe is like none other,” Bachelder said. “When you put those snow-capped mountains on a clear blue lake, then you throw a golf course between 100-foot pines, I don’t know how much better it can get than that.”
The 34-year-old Bachelder says his favorite part about golf is the ups and downs that characterize the sport. Off the course, the wounded warrior certainly has had his fair share of both.
SURVIVING THE CRASH — AND LIFE AFTER
In 2009 while serving in Afghanistan, Bachelder was involved in a midair collision between two U.S. helicopters that killed four of the six Marines involved. Bachelder was one of two survivors, but suffered a number of severe injuries after being thrown from the helicopter.
The injuries included a broken right tibia and fibula, pelvic fracture, broken hip, five fractured ribs, a fractured shoulder blade and traumatic brain injury. Bachelder was in the hospital for a month and a half, bedridden for an additional three months and confined to a wheelchair for three months after that — and partook in physical therapy until 2013.
Bachelder had his hip replaced again in 2013 after the initial replacement developed arthritis. Back and hip pain are the only consistent physical reminders of injuries he sustained while serving his country — and pale in comparison to the mental pain he has suffered since the crash.
Following the crash, Bachelder suffered from survivor’s guilt that led to abuse of pain medication and ultimately becoming distant from his family. The guilt became so strong that he tried to escape it by attempting suicide in 2012.
“I couldn’t imagine what the families have gone through with this whole tragedy that happened, and it just puts a lot of heavy weight on your heart and on your mind — and makes you go into a shell,” Bachelder said of survivor’s guilt. “There’s no way out of it when you’re in it. If you don’t have structure around your life, then you’ll never get out of it.”
Fortunately for Bachelder, he had structure led by his wife Debi — and that ultimately led to him surviving a dark time. He has since visited the grave sites and families of three of the fallen Marines that died in the crash along with Cpl. Gregory Fleury of Alaska — Capt. Eric Jones, Capt. Kyle Van De Giesen and Capt. David Mitchell.
“That helped heal a lot of wounds — not in the sense that I’m still alive, but to let them know that their sons will never be forgotten,” Bachelder said.
During his recovery following the suicide attempt, Bachelder’s mother told him about the Warrior Open. He submitted an application, was accepted into the tournament and has found solace in golf ever since.
“You have to find something that makes you happy, and if you’re happy you’ll find a way to better your life whenever that time comes,” Bachelder said. “I picked up golf and haven’t put it back down — I got really serious about it.”
GOLFING WITH THE STARS
Bachelder has met a handful of celebrities in recent years, including ACC participants and Hall of Fame NFL receivers Jerry Rice and Tim Brown. He doesn’t think he’ll be overly starstruck at the tournament, but said he’s excited to meet Justin Timberlake, Charles Barkley and Rob Riggle — the actor who was in the Marine Corps Reserve for 23 years.
“It will be really, really cool to play with all these guys,” Bachelder said. “I might be starstruck, but maybe they’ll be starstruck when they see me.”
In Texas, Bachelder routinely hits the links with Chad Pfeifer — the three-time Warrior Open champion and Army veteran that appeared at the ACC in 2014 and 2015. During their rounds back home, the two veterans often discuss Edgewood Tahoe and how to attack it.
“It’s great to play with him because he’s a great guy, on top of being a great golfer,” Bachelder said. “In terms of how to play the course, he’s helped me out a lot.”
Pfeifer, who lost his left leg in Iraq in 2007, parlayed a strong debut at Lake Tahoe to playing in a Web.com Tour event. Bachelder said he’d ultimately like to do the same — play the sport he loves professionally.
“That’s my goal, to strive to be one of the best golfers and make it professionally,” Bachelder said. “However it turns out, I’m always shooting for the stars.”
Bachelder will have his uncle, Dan Bachelder, as his caddy during the tournament — and said there’s no one he’d rather have by his side. The scratch golfer with a 1 handicap has 15-to-1 odds to win the ACC.
“I’ve been practicing a lot,” he said. “Ever since I got the invite, it’s been all about the American Century Championship — that is my focus.”

When are we gonna go back?
The Special Olympics Kaua‘i athletes want to know, said Leona Sa McDermott, a Special Olympics coach.
That may be partially answered by emergency rule 11 by Mayor Derek Kawakami, which allows for organized, outdoor team sports from June 1 provided that the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention guidelines and state Department of Health safe practices can be implemented and followed at all times.
“This would have been the week to travel to O‘ahu for the summer games 2020, which was scheduled for May 24 through 26,” Sa McDermott said. “Our Special Olympic Kaua‘i athletes — Ellane Kato, Frankie Green, Makani Kapua, Chad Okino, Ken Tazaki and James McCool — and coaches had to adjust to what is the new normal due to COVID-19.”
The summer games were canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic, breaking a tradition since 1968 where approximately 700 Special Olympic athletes, including those from Kaua‘i, spend three days competing in track and field, swimming, powerlifting, and forms of softball including unified, coach pitch, T-ball and individual skills.
“Instead, the Kaua‘i SO athletes are essential workers, and have been working through this pandemic,” McDermott said. “Our Special Olympics Hawai‘i leaders on O‘ahu launched virtual events and activities statewide to keep them engaged.”
Most of the Special Olympics Kaua‘i athletes are doing essential work at the Safeway stores, Ellane Kato also volunteering on the prayer team — “We’re small but powerful,” she says — during the Police, Pastors &Platters free breakfast (with music and prayer) giveaway at Puakea Golf Course in Lihu‘e that was started to provide weekend meals to supplement the free, grab-and-go meals program for youth presented by the state Department of Education.
“We want to take this time to recognize, honor and show our appreciation to all of them for their courage and dedication,” McDermott said. “Their unconditional love for the job they do daily is priceless. As coaches, when we see them collecting carts, sanitizing them, bagging our groceries with their masks on, (it) just reminds us of how much they value their perseverance in life despite the challenges they are faced with every day.”
McDermott said her son Kaimana has been on unemployment since March 18 when the department store he works in closed.
“Kaimana had a hard time coping with what was happening,” the mother-coach said. “At one point, he refused to walk out of the house. It took time to break it in enough for him to step outside, explaining to him that it’s OK to walk around the yard and take in some fresh air outside. His interpretation of COVID-19 had him thinking it was flying around, and if he breathes it in, he’s going get sick, which technically, is kinda right.”
Mcdermott said in addition to caring for Kaimana, she cares for her husband.
“The amount of stress I had was not limited to dealing with Kaimana, but my husband because he has the weakest immune system from all the chemo and radiation he’s endured over the years,” she said.
“I had to make sure he was isolated and no one comes near him because if he were to catch anything, his entire immune system would shut down. I was the only one to leave the house to get essential food and medical supplies. It was a risk, but those were essentials we needed,” she said.
“I finally got Kaimana to understand what was happening, what this virus is, and how a person gets it,” she said. “He realized he wasn’t going to be working for a while because of people in close contact with each other. Then came the ‘What about Special Olympics? We not going O‘ahu? How come? Why?’”
McDermott said she experiences the same with the other Special Olympic athletes on the job during her outings for essential supplies.
“With a flash of the shaka you can hear them through their masks: ‘When is practice starting up again? When are we gonna go back?’” she said. “I miss everyone. They will not stop at anything. You know, when they’re not thinking of their current condition, they just like know when practice going start.”
Kaimana was called back to work on May 22.
“The store’s management team brought him in to just get acclimated with the new distancing guidelines for store patrons to follow,” McDermott said.
“It took time for him to digest. He now has to do temperature checks before he starts his shift, entering the doors with a mask on, and being asked if he has flu-like symptoms, or if he was in contact with an individual that had been infected with COVID-19. It is a lot for him to take in daily, new routines to adjust to and, so far, he’s been doing OK. It’s what we call ‘the new norm.’”
“For myself, it’s still a daily repeat that we won’t be going this year,” she said.
“We need to make sure everything is safe and ready for us to travel again. And I tell you, Kaimana engaged with all the virtual activities and exercises that our O‘ahu office put out for the athletes, and he was so happy to just see his teammates across the state. That motivated him to wake up every day. That is a huge relief.” | <urn:uuid:5f3aa7c1-3147-457d-bd42-a6b7e38b354d> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://www.thegardenisland.com/2020/06/03/hawaii-news/working-through-the-pandemic/ | 2020-09-19T11:57:01Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400191780.21/warc/CC-MAIN-20200919110805-20200919140805-00198.warc.gz | en | 0.9843 | 1,254 |
Update, 6/21/18, 6:40am PT:
Intel released a statement to Tom's Hardware about this issue:
"Protecting our customers and their data continues to be a critical priority for us. We are looking into this feedback and thank the community for their ongoing efforts.”
Original, 6/20/18, 9:20am PT:
OpenBSD, an open source operating system that focuses on security, announced that it will disable Intel’s Hyper-Threading (HT) feature so that attackers can no longer employ Spectre-like cache timing attacks.
Intel Hyper-Threading Vulnerable To Side-Channel Attacks
Simultaneous Multi Threading (SMT) such as Intel’s HT technology typically share translation lookaside buffers (TLBs) and L1 caches between threads, which can make a type of side-channel attack called cache timing attacks much easier.
The OpenBSD team said it suspects that Intel’s HT will make several Spectre-class flaws exploitable. The team added that running multiple security domains on multiple threads of the same core has never been a good idea. However, changing the operating system software to now take this into account will not be a trivial task. Moreover, these days most device makers no longer allow users to disable Intel’s HT in the BIOS, either.
The developers noted that disabling HT on OpenBSD machines doesn’t necessarily mean the performance will suffer, as often HT can slow down certain tasks on devices with more than two cores, at least according to the OpenBSD developers. HT tends to be useful for highly parallel tasks where it can squeeze out all the performance the processor cores can give.
Intel CPU Architecture Change Is Now An Imperative
We haven’t even seen all the Spectre NG flaws be revealed yet, but whole operating systems such as OpenBSD are already making major compromises due to how vulnerable Intel’s CPU architecture seems to be to speculative execution attacks.
Spectre is likely going to end up being an entire class of bugs that will keep on giving operating system developers headaches, as other security researchers and attackers find new ways to exploit Intel’s CPU architecture. That means we won’t see true fixes until Intel eliminates this class of vulnerabilities completely by overhauling its CPU architecture.
This may be at least partially true for chipmakers other than Intel, too, who should also consider doing the same in the next few years. For now, though, Intel seems to be primary target of Spectre attacks, and that likely won’t change anytime soon. | <urn:uuid:089aa889-2380-4572-858c-7c7318022714> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://www.tomshardware.com/news/openbsd-disables-intel-hyper-threading-spectre,37332.html | 2020-09-19T12:04:28Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400191780.21/warc/CC-MAIN-20200919110805-20200919140805-00198.warc.gz | en | 0.946342 | 531 |

- Step 1
Heat oil in a large deep frying pan over medium heat. Add spinach. Cook, stirring, for 1 minute or until just wilted. Transfer to a plate. Cool for 20 minutes. Place spinach in a sieve over a bowl. Using the back of a large spoon, press liquid from spinach.
- Step 2
Preheat oven to 200°C/180°C fan-forced. Brush the base and side of a 20cm-round (base) springform pan with a little of the butter. Place 1 sheet of filo on a flat surface. Brush with butter. Carefully push filo into pan, butter-side down, to line base and side of pan, allowing filo to extend over edge of pan. Repeat layering with 5 more sheets of filo and butter in a clockwise pattern.
- Step 3
Place ricotta, fetta and egg in a large bowl. Stir to combine (mixture will appear lumpy). Stir in spinach. Season with salt and pepper.
- Step 4
Gently spoon mixture into prepared pan. Carefully scrunch sides of filo into pan to form a border. Brush 1 sheet of remaining filo with butter. Scrunch and place on one half of the filling to cover. Repeat with final filo sheet and butter to cover filling. Brush edges with any remaining butter. Place pan on a baking tray. Bake for 30 to 40 minutes or until golden. Stand for 10 minutes. Carefully remove from pan. Serve. | <urn:uuid:87cc5c91-4179-481b-bdc5-821e12225574> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | http://best-pizza-recipes.appspot.com/crunchy-spinach-and-ricotta-filo-pie.html | 2020-09-20T21:47:01Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400198652.6/warc/CC-MAIN-20200920192131-20200920222131-00198.warc.gz | en | 0.849883 | 313 |

Displaying the Order of Folder Pages at a Stage
Last edited: 29 Oct 2003
The information in this article applies to product:
e-Work 6.x Issue When using the Project Explorer view in the Designer, dragging and dropping forms doesn't change their order. Resolution Prior to e-Work version 6.5, to change the order of forms in the Designer, and consequently their tab order at a stage, you need to use the Component Bar view. This can be accessed from the Designer menu bar: View --> Options... --> Miscellaneous --> Component Bar. Dragging and dropping the forms will now work. Starting with version 6.5, the order of folder pages (forms) can be set through the Properties of a stage.

Really briefly, there’s a fascinating and short post over at zephoria called Social Technology from MPD to Aspergers in which Danah says:
I have a funny feeling that social technology is back to developing software based on disorders and instigating new ones in people. Only, we’ve move away from schizophrenia and onto autism. Did you ever get the sneaking suspicion that this new wave of “social software” is not really making social life easier, but permitting the kind of social awkwardness that is recognized in Asperger’s?
Having read this I started to wonder to myself whether or not our attempts to gradually improve of ways of socially interacting online would see us pass through a whole range of psychological disorders. Perhaps the limits and barriers to social interaction and identity online really do have very clear offline parallels. Perhaps we won’t be able to enable truly effective collaborative online spaces until we’ve finally started modelling or facilitating these social encounters effectively. And maybe then the various new affordances of the internet will truly come into their own. But what will we have then? I’ll tell you what! A new form of ultra-enabled socially superordered men and women – their prosthetic social enhancements compensating for and transforming any individual awkwardness into truly collaborative endeavours? | <urn:uuid:c53a67cc-e2ea-48ac-ac31-0aa540cf3d26> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | http://plasticbag.org/archives/2004/05/social_superorders/ | 2020-09-20T19:52:45Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400198652.6/warc/CC-MAIN-20200920192131-20200920222131-00198.warc.gz | en | 0.941475 | 269 |
Curaçao trying it’s best not to become the next Aruba. It is amazing how fast and thorough an investigation into a missing person occurs when an individual is wanted to be found.
49 year old James Hogan, a US Diplomat vice-consul has been missing in Curacao since last Thursday evening when he left his home in Toni Kunchi, went for a walk and never returned. His wife filed a missing persons report the following day.
The investigation into his disappearance began Friday as police started a search along the route that Hogan usually walked.
On Friday afternoon, the Public Prosecutor and the police started with the Team Large-scaled Search (TGO), which consists of fifteen to twenty persons. The police circulated an official missing person report later on. This led to tips, which are currently being investigated
Bloodstained jeans have been found Baya Beach on Friday afternoon that were forwarded to the Dutch Forensic Institute (NFI) in Rijswijk.
The clothes possibly belong to the vice-consul James Hogan (49) who is missing since Thursday evening, but the NFI is yet to give a definite answer. Officer of Justice Ludmilla Vicento stated the aforementioned during the press conference yesterday. For the time being, the authorities are assuming that the man is missing, but they are also taking into account all scenarios from a crime, a kidnapping to an assault. A team from the NFI with four specially trained dogs arrived on the island last Sunday. The area surrounding Baya Beach at the peninsula of the Caracas Bay is fenced off until further notice. Family, colleagues, and neighbors have meanwhile been heard, but this did not yield any results yet.
It would appear that the cooperation and rush for resources and help into Curacoa for missing James Hogan is occurring at a much more brisk pace than it was for Natalee Holloway in Aruba. It’s amazing how fast a government and LE operate when they actually want to find a missing person. Earlier disappearances are still fresh in the memory of the Netherlands Antillean people like Dutch trainee nurse Marlies van der Kouwe who was killed on Bonaire and US teenager Natalee Holloway who disappeared without trace in Aruba.
In connection with the disappearance of Mr James Hogan, vice consul of the United States, the Attorney General (OM) Dick Piar has confirmed that the Consul-General of the United States has made a request that two persons join the search.
Following the request of the FBI on Monday, 1 officer and 1 officer of the State Department have been added to the search team.
The (OM) also stated that through formal channels, a request was made to the Netherlands for technical assistance to aid with the investigation into the disappearance of Hogan. He stated that this request has now been approved. | <urn:uuid:a497c61b-c9f7-482f-9a6a-0b77be2ee4d1> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | http://scaredmonkeys.com/2009/10/01/49-year-old-us-diplomat-james-hogan-is-missing-in-curacao-bloody-jeans-found/ | 2020-09-20T20:08:32Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400198652.6/warc/CC-MAIN-20200920192131-20200920222131-00198.warc.gz | en | 0.975338 | 584 |

Complaint Type: I received the key to be entered into the software but received an invalid code error. I contacted customer service three times but have not heard anything back. Program did noy recover documents as stated on website. I contacted tech support in,which basically,i was told there was nothing they could do. Website offers a 90 day money back guarantee. Multiple emails and messages later and 4 days later they are flat out refusong to issue me a refund due to some,policy they havent shared with me.
As soon as I received the registration code, I entered it into the software but continually received an error stating that “there is no order associated with this registration code. The problem was I couldn’t wait that long with a dysfunctional phone. So I politely emailed them with the above information and requested a refund, since I could not and did not use their software to solve my problem.
They emailed back to tell me to try again, I explained again and asked for a refund again. They told me that because I solved the problem a different way instead of asking for help, I was not entitled to a refund. I emailed again telling them that it was pretty terrible customer service and that I would file a complaint. They replied and threatened legal action if I were to “damage their reputation Expand Complaint Details Status: As it advertise on their website that it will fix your phone if its stuck on the iTunes logo.
Which my phone was. I contacted them about 2 hours after attempting to use the software several times and still no luck making it work. So someone got back to me the next day and we have been going back and forth about the issue i was having and the rep stated that it was a hardware issue and he can’t refund my money.
I was surprised because the website clearly states that it will fix the issue I was having plus money back guarantee. If the software don’t work I’m OK with that it’s not perfect but telling me that you can’t and won’t refund me my money because it’s a hardware issue is unacceptable. What did I pay for then? I think this company is a fraud and they are well aware of what their doing. We used a different card and it went through. Then they gave access code for their product and we tried 10 times to get it to work even called technical support.
Never was able to access so we cancelled right then and there. We were to have our refund within 2 days and it is the 9th day now and still no refund. We have called every 2 days on this issue and never get anywhere except we will re-email the company and see about the refund.
Recieved an email finally but the company has denied to refund us. We never were able to log in to even see if their program worked for our phones, never used it either. We deserve the refund and don’t know why they keep denying to refund us. Payment follows a convoluted path thru Mycommerce. It has been three weeks and I have not received requested refund, only offers of more software that I do not want. The responses to my messages seem canned and repetitive.
The software itself is poorly done, uses outdated files and utilities, and offers only help that is actually outside of the program itself, navigation is poor. It seems the whole structure of tenorshare, mycommerce, and the software are all tied into a bogus operation. I purchased the product because I wanted to recover them considering their importance to me.
The product did not work. I consulted with a coworker who directed me to a different application that did on fact work. I asked this company for a refund due to my dissatisfaction with it. They denied the refund. I explained I was going to write a bad review of the product and contact you. They threatened me with legal consciousness. It is misleading advertisement. I bought that software for 9. The software will not activate after I enter the license key that was provided with the purchase.
Support responds 24 hours later asking to reinstall and try again, same result. They will not refund the money but will allow me to purchase another product for that value. Fraud company! I Complaint Type: Company agreed that the product is buggy. I had to reset IPhone since I coudln’t wait for another month for them to “fix the bug” Requested refund, and they refused.
They offer advertise a day money back guarantee for “peace of mind” when purchasing. However, after voicing my dissatisfaction with their software, and submitting numerous requests for a refund, they have continued to ignore my requests, and are now only offering a free license to another piece of software.
Also, their customer service is atrocious, and I continued to receive condescending and flippant responses to my complaints.

I have a friend who is not bothered by the fact that the Mormon church handles excommunications from the top down. The idea being that the Church’s reputation and the Flock must be protected. However the scriptures tell us a different story, not only is it against God’s word, it’s happened in the past and we have the benefit of their failures to prevent us from repeating the same error.
Rather than quote all of the scriptures talking about how the church is supposed to handle the excommunication process, I would prefer you read two very good posts on the matter, First is, “The Latter-Day Apostasy” and second, “The Doctrine Against Dissent.” These articles explore the matter further than I could take it. Although I don’t agree 100% with either article, it is excellent and worth a ponderous read.
Let’s take a look at the church’s official statements about “top-down” discipline. I have copied a post from the blog of Denver Snuffer under the title: “Church Discipline Top-Down” This article gets to the heart of the matter. You can read about Denver’s excommunication here, “The Facts.”
The LDS Church issued the following statement posted on its website. I have copied and pasted as it appears in the original:
SALT LAKE CITY-
The Church issued the following statement today in response to questions from the news media regarding Church discipline:
“The Church is a family made up of millions of individuals with diverse backgrounds and opinions. There is room for questions and we welcome sincere conversations. We hope those seeking answers will find them and happiness through the gospel of Jesus Christ.
“Sometimes members’ actions contradict Church doctrine and lead others astray. While uncommon, some members in effect choose to take themselves out of the Church by actively teaching and publicly attempting to change doctrine to comply with their personal beliefs. This saddens leaders and fellow members. In these rare cases, local leaders have the responsibility to clarify false teachings and prevent other members from being misled. Decisions are made by local leaders and not directed or coordinated by Church headquarters.
“Actions to address a person’s membership and standing in their congregation are convened after lengthy periods of counseling and encouragement to reconsider behavior. Ultimately, the door is always open for people to return to the Church.
It is not true that discipline involving controversial members is exclusively the responsibility of “local leaders” acting independent of influence from the hierarchy. The hierarchy imposes their will from the top-down by instructing the local leaders on what they must do. In my case the news came directly from Elder Russell M. Nelson of the twelve, who presides over the Strengthening the Members Committee. Usually the news comes through Elder Whitney Clayton, one of the seven presidents. He was also involved in my case, but the original pressure came through Elder Nelson directly.
The assertion by the church in their press release that “Decisions are made by local leaders and not directed or coordinated by Church headquarters” is false. In the case of public, controversial members, it is a lie. I am far more disappointed the church would lie about what they do than I am at their inappropriate top-down behavior. The reason they lie about it is because they are violating the scriptural pattern for discipline. LDS scripture requires discipline to be local. It isn’t, so they lie to make it appear that way. Morally, lying to cover up their wrong doing is worse than admitting they manipulate local leaders. Now they are responsible for doing both. They should be more honorable.
Another excommunication happened this month to a couple in Arizona. The Stake Presidency threatened to ex the whole family if they didn’t stop worshiping the way the scriptures inform us to. The couple shares what happened next: “Texts”
Following our meeting with our stake presidency my wife and I determined that we needed to make a statement of how we were proceeding in our worship, so I sent the following text to my Bishop and Stake President:
“Prez Barker and Bishop Walch, this is Jon Durfee and family. You told us to stop doing ordinances or all who are baptized members would be ex’ed. We as a family intend to continue to follow the doctrine of Christ as found in the scriptures including the ordinances that we may obtain the power to see His face and live. (D&C 84). If you must take action: “That thou doest, do quickly”.”
This is the reply from the stake president:
“Doesn’t read like a removal letter! . I did get some guidance from Salt Lake about children. The thought there was a that it did not make sense to have disciplinary Council for them. It seems like we could handle those as informal probation matters, taking away any recommends for the 12 year old and ups might have and restricting use of the priesthood. If they want to request a name removal as to the children, they can do that. That was the thought from the staff person in Salt Lake.
I will be visiting with Elder Greer and Elder Corbridge this week. Until then , other than having to address the removal letter from the (name withheld), let’s just stand still.
You are doing a terrific job!” President Barker
Are you confused? So was I! Was he really praising me for “doing a good job”? What’s this about a removal letter? Was he expecting me to submit one? And what’s this about “guidance from Salt Lake”? I thought these excommunications were only from the local stakes and were local matters!? Are the leaders in Salt Lake lying to the public on this policy? If it’s local, and not central, why would he need “guidance” from the higher ups? He is “standing still” until he “visits with elder’s Greer and Corbridge (later) this week? If he stands still until he receives instruction on how to proceed, who is really responsible for any and all action taken against me and my family?
It’s like he was talking to someone else! Then came the next text:
“The message I sent was intended only for Bishop Walch. If it also went to the Durfee’s, as it now occurs to me it may have, that was not intended. It should be returned.” President Barker
Oh. Ok. I’ll just return a text message? How do you do that? Too late! The damage is done! Apparently at least three quorums are involved in our excommunication! Incredible!
As these Stake Presidents continue to work in secret with Salt Lake leadership, more of these stories will begin to emerge. It is amazing to me that my church is doing this. This is a different story than the official statement entails. I am concerned, and I will explain why.
The Book of Mormon is a book of prophecy. Stories and experiences were carefully selected by prophets who saw our day. They could have chosen hundreds of other stories and events to foretell what we can expect to experience during our day. So it is sobering to think that we can expect what happened in the Book of Mormon to repeat in our day.
As we are in the midst of many signs and wonders from heaven it makes one contemplate how close we really are to the Lord’s second coming. By looking at the events leading up to the Lord’s first coming, we can get an idea of what might happen before His second coming.
75 years before the coming of the Lord, Alma was sent to a people who were in a apostate. Nevertheless Alma was commanded to deliver a message. After the message was given, the church leadership sought to know what people were thinking. This was done in secret.
And it came to pass that after the more popular part of the Zoramites had consulted together concerning the words which had been preached unto them, they were angry because of the word, for it did destroy their craft; therefore they would not hearken unto the words.
And they sent and gathered together throughout all the land all the people, and consulted with them concerning the words which had been spoken.
Now their rulers and their priests and their teachers did not let the people know concerning their desires; therefore they found out privily the minds of all the people.
And it came to pass that after they had found out the minds of all the people, those who were in favor of the words which had been spoken by Alma and his brethren were cast out of the land; and they were many; and they came over also into the land of Jershon. (Alma 35:3–6)
False Rulers, False Priests, and False Teachers are the ones who do this. After several years pass by, and just prior to the first coming of the Lord, the false High Priests take it a step further:
And there began to be men inspired from heaven and sent forth, standing among the people in all the land, preaching and testifying boldly of the sins and iniquities of the people, and testifying unto them concerning the redemption which the Lord would make for his people, or in other words, the resurrection of Christ; and they did testify boldly of his death and sufferings.
Now there were many of the people who were exceedingly angry because of those who testified of these things; and those who were angry were chiefly the chief judges, and they who had been high priests and lawyers; yea, all those who were lawyers were angry with those who testified of these things.
Now there was no lawyer nor judge nor high priest that could have power to condemn any one to death save their condemnation was signed by the governor of the land.
Now there were many of those who testified of the things pertaining to Christ who testified boldly, who were taken and put to death secretly by the judges, that the knowledge of their death came not unto the governor of the land until after their death. (3 Nephi 6:20–23)
We have been warned that these secret combinations amongst the hierarchy of church leadership will once again make an appearance in these the last days. Could this be pointing to us? Could it be happening now?
In each of the stories above, false priests worked in secret and in darkness to cast out the saints. Nephi warned us that such things will happen again, “Yea, and there shall be many which shall teach after this manner, false and vain and foolish doctrines, and shall be puffed up in their hearts, and shall seek deep to hide their counsels from the Lord; and their works shall be in the dark. And the blood of the saints shall cry from the ground against them.” (2 Nephi 28:9–10)
It will be the Lord who will destroy secret works, “Wherefore, for this cause, that my covenants may be fulfilled which I have made unto the children of men, that I will do unto them while they are in the flesh, I must needs destroy the secret works of darkness, and of murders, and of abominations.” (2 Nephi 10:15)
Thankfully in the end nothing will be secret, “There is nothing which is secret save it shall be revealed; there is no work of darkness save it shall be made manifest in the light; and there is nothing which is sealed upon the earth save it shall be loosed.” (2 Nephi 30:17)
This post came about because of the post entitled, “Lehi’s Message.” The Book of Mormon is a revelation indeed. Much to ponder. | <urn:uuid:388ebbd3-8e4e-49d0-a4cb-b8cb1ac8f244> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | http://www.adamawake.com/secret-works-of-darkness/ | 2020-09-20T21:36:28Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400198652.6/warc/CC-MAIN-20200920192131-20200920222131-00198.warc.gz | en | 0.978948 | 2,464 |
