Beatles’ producer George Martin dies at 90
George Martin, the Beatles’ urbane producer who quietly guided the band’s swift, historic transformation from rowdy club act to musical and cultural revolutionaries, has died, his management said Wednesday. He was 90.
Manager Adam Sharp said in a statement that Martin “passed away peacefully at home” on Tuesday evening.
Martin was too modest to call himself the “fifth Beatle,” but Paul McCartney said Wednesday that “if anyone earned the title … it was George.”
“He was a true gentleman and like a second father to me,” McCartney said.
Martin produced some of the most beloved songs and most popular and influential albums of modern times — “Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band,” ‘’Revolver,” ‘’Rubber Soul,” ‘’Abbey Road” — elevating rock LPs from ways to cash in on hit singles to art forms, “concepts.”
From a raw first album in 1962 that took a day to make to the months-long production of “Sgt. Pepper” just five years later, Martin would preside, assist and sometimes stand aside as the Beatles advanced by quantum steps as songwriters and sonic explorers.
They composed dozens of classics, from “She Loves You” to “Hey Jude,” and turned the studio into a wonderland of backward tape loops, multi-tracking, unpredictable tempos, unfathomable segues and kaleidoscopic montages. Never again would rock music be defined by two-minute love songs or guitar-bass-drums arrangements.
“Once we got beyond the bubblegum stage, the early recordings, and they wanted to do something more adventurous, they were saying, ‘What can you give us?’” Martin told The Associated Press in 2002. “And I said, ‘I can give you anything you like.’”
His own talents were duly recognized. He was nominated for an Academy Award for producing the soundtrack to the Beatles’ “A Hard Day’s Night.” He won six Grammys, and was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1999. Three years earlier, he was knighted by Queen Elizabeth II.
Besides the Beatles, Martin worked with Jeff Beck, Elton John, Celine Dion and on several solo albums by Paul McCartney. In the 1960s, Martin produced hits by Cilla Black, Gerry and the Pacemakers, and Billy J. Kramer and the Dakotas and for a 37-week stretch in 1963 one or another of his recordings topped the British charts.
But his legacy was defined by the Beatles, for the contributions he made, and for those he didn’t.
Before the Beatles, producers such as Phil Spector and Berry Gordy controlled the recording process, choosing the arrangements and musicians; picking, and sometimes writing the songs (or claiming credit for them). The Beatles, led by the songwriting team of McCartney and John Lennon, became their own bosses and were among the first rock groups to compose their own material. Inspired by native genius, a world’s tour of musical influences and all the latest stimulants, they were seekers of magic who demanded new sounds.
Martin was endlessly called on to perform the impossible, and often succeeded, splicing recordings at different speeds for “Strawberry Fields Forever,” or, for “Being for the Benefit of Mr. Kite,” simulating a calliope with keyboards, harmonica and a harmonium that the producer himself played with such intensity he passed out on the floor. Martin would have several good turns on the keyboards, performing a lively music hall solo on McCartney’s “Lovely Rita” and a Baroque reverie (at studio-heightened speed) on Lennon’s “In My Life.”
His bearing was infinitely more patrician than the Beatles’, but he grew up working class. Born in north London in 1926, Martin was a carpenter’s son raised in a three-room flat without a kitchen, bathroom or electricity.
He was a gifted musician who mastered Chopin by ear, a born experimenter enchanted whenever he discovered a new chord. After World War II service in the Fleet Air Arm, he attended London’s Guildhall School of Music, studying composition and orchestration, and performance on the oboe and piano.
“Music was pretty well my whole life,” Martin wrote in his memoir, “All You Need is Ears,” published in 1980.
Hired by the EMI division Parlophone Records in 1950, Martin initially worked on classical recordings with the London Baroque Ensemble. The technology was primitive, with recording on wax cylinders with machines which weren’t driven by electricity, but by weights. Named head of Parlophone in 1955, he also worked with Judy Garland, jazz stars Stan Getz, Cleo Laine and John Dankworth, and with Peter Sellers and Spike Milligan of the “Goon Show,” an absurdist comedy troupe much loved by the Beatles.
The Beatles, none of whom could read music, depended on Martin’s classical background. They might hum a melody to the producer, who would translate it into a written score, as he did for a trumpet solo on McCartney’s “Penny Lane.” For McCartney’s “Yesterday,” Martin convinced the composer that a bluesy string quartet would serve the song’s tender remorse.
Artistically, Martin would never approach such heights again. But he did manage commercial success with the pop groups America and the Little River Band and produced two top James Bond themes — Shirley Bassey’s “Goldfinger” and McCartney’s “Live and Let Die.”
Martin intended for the production and scoring of Elton John’s “Candle In The Wind ‘97,” a tribute to the late Princess Diana, to be his last project. But in 2000 he produced “1,” a multimillion-selling compilation of Beatles’ No. 1 songs, then followed with a six-CD retrospective of his recording career.
McCartney said that with his passing, “the world has lost a truly great man who left an indelible mark on my soul and the history of British music.”

Four-star, top 100 recruit Andre Jackson is the latest high-profile Class of 2020 prospect to trim his list of offers down.
Jackson (Albany, N.Y./Albany Academy for Boys) fielded just over a dozen Division I offers throughout his recruitment, but now he’s down to just five: UConn, UCLA, Syracuse, Maryland, and Iowa.
Among the field of suitors hoping to land Jackson were the Georgetown Hoyas and Marquette Golden Eagles. Georgetown offered the 6-foot-7 wing last December, while the Golden Eagles officially entered the picture a couple of months later.
Jackson was a key player in Albany Academy’s success this past season, as he helped it to a New York State Class A Federation title. He averaged a double-double, with 17.4 points and 10.0 rebounds.
He remained solid on the AAU circuit after, averaging 14.8 points and 7.0 rebounds through 19 games with City Rocks (N.Y.). | <urn:uuid:dd29379e-634a-4f80-9da5-2125c6071e74> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://www.bigeastcoastbias.com/big-east-recruiting/2019/8/9/20799265/four-star-2020-forward-andre-jackson-final-five-big-east-recruiting-uconn-georgetown-marquette | 2022-01-25T08:54:59Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320304798.1/warc/CC-MAIN-20220125070039-20220125100039-00598.warc.gz | en | 0.951251 | 209 |
There are at least 12 parks within the borders of New York City that are natural habitats for birds and animals – areas that most New Yorkers may not be aware of.
As Mayor Bloomberg observes in his Foreword to this valuable book, when people think of a natural environment within this vast metropolis of skyscrapers, what comes to mind is Central Park in Manhattan. But that is only one park in one borough. There are actually hundreds of parks in the city’s five boroughs, even as most of them are small and do not have fauna, just flora.
But on page 12 of this book, you will find a nature map of New York City with a dozen parks where live a large variety of aquatic and land-based wildlife and birds, among them: many kinds of amphibians, bald eagles, bears, beavers, crustaceans, dolphins, fish, mink, mountain lions, muskrat, otter, reptiles, seals, dozens of species of waterfowl, wild turkeys, wolves, and even whales. These are among the known ones; what is unknown would enlarge this list.
What are these parks? Besides the large 848-acre Central Park in Manhattan, they are: Inwood Hill Park and Riverside Park in the same borough; Pelham Bay Park and Van Cortlandt Park in the Bronx; Floyd Bennett Field, Marine Park, and Prospect Park in Brooklyn; Alley Pond Park and Jamaica Bay Wildlife Refuge in Queens; and Mount Loretto Unique Area and Wolfe’s Pond Park in Staten Island.
Nature provides abundantly for the sustenance of these creatures, so you will find in these parks, among other types of natural food: cranberries, grapes, huckleberries, plums, raspberries, and strawberries everywhere.
Leslie Day presents the material in this book first by relaying to you the reader, the first three chapters which respectively cover: a natural history of this city; a description of each of the parks in its boroughs; and the 48 Forever Wild nature preserves in over nine thousand acres within New York City. She then presents chapters four through seven by covering respectively: animals, plants, mushrooms, and geology.
Chapter 4 on animals and chapter 5 on plants are very detailed with many types of each. For example chapter 4 covers: invertebrates, vertebrates, and mammals, with many types of each of them as subtopics. Vertebrates for example include: amphibians, birds, fish, and reptiles; and mammals includes three types of bats, the Eastern Chipmunk, the Red Fox. the Opossum, the Common Raccoon, and the Eastern Gray Squirrel.
The book is amply illustrated with full-color photos of the parks, natural habitats and their inhabitants, maps of areas around those parks, and detailed drawings of the birds and animals.
This is an excellent book on a little-known aspect of New York City – its parks and who live within and around those areas.
Leslie Day, PhD is an environmental and life science educator at The Elisabeth Morrow School and an adjunct faculty member at Bank Street College of Education. She developed the City Naturalis Summer Institute with the Central Park Conservatory and has a doctorate in science education from Teachers College at Columbia University, She and her husband live on a houseboat on the Hudson River in Manhattan.

This article was originally published on Intellyx.com
I was on a conference call when the news flashed across my screen: “Notre Dame Cathedral is on fire.”
The news was shocking — and heartbreaking. As the tragedy unfolded, I remember thinking, “How did this happen?”
We now have some answers.
The New York Times recently published an in-depth analysis of the events of that fateful day. Within its comprehensive deconstruction, there are valuable lessons — both good and bad — for IT leaders during an operational crisis.
PLAN WITH INTENT — AND WITHOUT ASSUMPTIONS
“All the sensitive technology at the heart of system had been undone by a cascade of oversights and erroneous assumptions built into the overall design.”
Notre Dame was a national treasure. Its overseers knew full well the risk of fire to the cathedral — particularly in the latticework of ancient timbers in the attic. They, therefore, implemented an incredibly sensitive monitoring system that could detect even the faintest amount of smoke.
That monitoring system worked — but the overall management plan still failed. Why?
Wanna make this a regular thing?
If you're enjoying these ideas and insights, why don't we make this a regular thing? Follow my work on what it means to be a leader in the Digital Era, by subscribing to The Practice by The MAPS Institute, which I co-founded with my wife, Laura Araujo to explore how we can all life a life in balance.
While the system alerted a security employee, who then relayed a message to a church guard, the overall system broke down because it used complex, difficult-to-understand jargon, and made a series of assumptions about both how a fire might unfold and how teams would communicate during the critical early stages of an incident.
It was those communication breakdowns and assumptions that were the flaw in the system.
When the fire was detected, it reported, “Attic Nave Sacristy ZDA-110-3-15-1 aspirating framework.”
The management plan assumed that whoever received this message would know what it meant — and that the on-site team would know what to do. Unfortunately, the employee who received it had been on the job for three days — and was probably ill-prepared to decipher this bewildering code. As a result, he and the guard on duty were unable to communicate and sort out what was happening quickly enough to respond while it still mattered.
I wonder how many IT operations teams have invested hundreds of thousands of dollars in sophisticated instrumentation and monitoring solutions, but then use similar jargon and make comparable assumptions in their management plans?
It’s easy to buy the tool and create the pretty dashboards, but when the crisis hits, it will be the clarity of communications and the ability to instantly respond that will determine whether or not it will be a catastrophe.
RESPOND FIRST, DO ANALYSIS LATER
While many are placing the blame at the feet of the security company and guards, the real culprit lies in the management plan itself.
The procedure, in the event of an alarm, was for the security employee monitoring the system to radio the guard to check it out. Because of the arcane message, the miscommunication between the employee and the guard, and the inability for the employee to contact his boss, that process took thirty minutes.
By the time they had sorted it out, the fire was already burning out of control.
But while everyone is busy pointing fingers and casting blame, they should instead be asking why they had that procedure in the first place.
In a place as susceptible to fire as Notre Dame, every moment counted. Why wasn’t the procedure to immediately call the fire department and have every available resource check everything?
Unfortunately, many IT operations teams follow a similarly slow analysis-driven procedure when they have priority one incidents: they begin a triage process rather than ringing the bells and calling everyone to their stations.
When I think of how IT operations team should respond to a crisis, I like to imagine Captain Kirk speaking into his communicator, “Red Alert” — and watching everyone run to their stations ready for battle. When a crisis hits, the response is the first order of business — and it should be all hands on deck.
If you’re thinking to yourself, “We can’t do that — we have way too many priority ones,” then that’s the problem you need to fix first. Otherwise, ring the bell, blow the horn, yell “Red Alert” and put everyone one to work checking everything — this is no time for analysis.
If it turns out to be a false alarm, apologize and consider it a good training drill. That will always be better than the alternative.
THERE CAN BE ONLY ONE OFFICER OF THE DECK
Imagine the scene.
It was a bit after 8:30 pm, just over two hours had passed since the fire began, and General Jean-Claude Gallet, head of the Paris fire brigade walked into a room across the plaza from Notre Dame.
In that room sat the President of France, the Prime Minister, the Mayor of Paris, the Monsignor of Notre Dame, and about twenty other top government and church officials. He had come to tell them that he had decided to let the roof go and focus instead on the tower.
I can only imagine the weight of that decision. But the most remarkable part of this episode is what happened next: nothing.
According to the Times, the assembled officials — all of whom are used to being in charge and being the ones making decisions — did nothing. They did not shout that it was unacceptable; they did not question; they did not demand to make the final decision.
Instead, they did the right thing, the brave thing, and the hard thing: they let General Gallet do his job.
That act — the act of letting the General do his job, and to trust in his decision — is most likely what saved Notre Dame.
During a crisis, there can only be one Officer of the Deck — a naval term for the officer on the bridge and in charge of the ship at any given point in time.
In the event of a priority one event, do you know who is in charge? Do you have a procedure for changing the Officer of the Deck, should you require it? Have you practiced having one person — and only one person — in charge so that everyone knows what that feels like and how they should respond?
In many IT crises, the most significant barriers to resolution are the lack of a defined mechanism for determining who is responsible, for transitioning responsibility when required, and the meddling of the higher-ups who feel they must be involved, but who do not want to take command.
As the tragedy of Notre Dame demonstrated, however, get this right and you’ll have a fighting chance even if everything else goes wrong.
HEROIC ACTIONS WITHOUT A HERO CULTURE
The story of how the firefighters on the scene saved Notre Dame is a real-life story of heroism. In the face of impossible odds and an almost no-win situation, they pushed through a point-of-no-return and placed their lives on the line to save their beloved cathedral.
While the firefighters were undoubtedly heroes and performed heroic deeds, however, what they did not exhibit was a hero culture.
They did not charge recklessly into dangerous situations. They did not take actions without direction because they thought it was the right thing to do.
Instead, they were methodical, they were deliberate, and they were in constant communication with their leaders at command, relaying valuable on-the-ground information that those leaders needed to make informed decisions.
In many IT organizations, however, this is not the case during a crisis.
When a priority event occurs, many IT operations teams take it as an excuse to throw out procedures, to ignore documentation, and just do “whatever it takes” to solve the problem.
But embracing or accepting this type of hero culture will not help you respond to a crisis more rapidly or effectively — it will have the opposite effect. Worse, it will allow the hero culture to spread like a cancer and undermine the entire operational management model.
When the time comes to ring that bell, you want heroic actions taken within a controlled management model, rather than a hero culture. Confuse them at your peril.
THE INTELLYX TAKE: BE WILLING TO MAKE THE TOUGH DECISIONS
While it may seem a stretch to compare the situation at Notre Dame with the circumstances IT operations teams face, the reality is that the relative fragility and importance of the technology stack presents a very similar set of challenges in the modern enterprise.
At least within the context of an organization’s technology-driven competitive posture, many enterprises are now reliant on their own “forest,” as Notre Dame’s attic of ancient timbers was called.
Any many IT organizations are just plain not prepared for the day it catches fire.
The lessons from the tragedy of Notre Dame — both good and bad — will help you change that, but only if you’re ready to do so.
There is, however, one final lesson that may be the most important of all: be willing to make the tough decisions.
When General Gallet decided to let the roof go, it had to have been one of the toughest decisions of his life. However, he was able to make it, and to have the courage to face the country’s, city’s, and church’s leadership with it, because he remained steadfastly focused on his only goal: to save Notre Dame.
As an IT leader, your only goal must be to protect the competitive value of the organization. This singular focus should always be the case, but it can be easy to forget or lose sight of during a crisis — which is when it matters the most.
To survive your next crisis — and it will come — you must remain singularly focused on this goal, be willing to step away from the fight long enough to see the big picture, and then have the courage to make the decisions and take the actions you need to take to save your Notre Dame.

Still, though the leaders disagreed, the session was marked by new respect among the leaders after four years of tension under former US President Donald Trump. | <urn:uuid:a38dad61-f0f1-48a9-9916-7941ca97a539> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://www.ee.iitb.ac.in/~tidsplab/wp-content/uploads/elementor/earnmoney/news2902.html | 2022-01-25T08:53:10Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320304798.1/warc/CC-MAIN-20220125070039-20220125100039-00598.warc.gz | en | 0.858911 | 769 |

A meeting will be held at Wembley next Monday over the national stadium's much-criticised pitch.
Wembley Stadium has invited professional body the Institute of Groundsmanship to the talks, along with "several other stakeholders".
The groundsmen's organisation said it hoped the meeting "might be the start of finding a long-term solution".
The Football Association is likely to decide to replace the pitch for the 11th time, BBC Sport understands.

The company's security officer Joe Sullivan told Reuters in an interview that the company, which has been subject to criticism over its privacy and data collection policies, will discontinue a feature on its app that tracks riders for up to five minutes following the conclusion of a trip.
According to Reuters, Uber updated its app last November so that users no longer had the ability to restrict location tracking to only when the app is actively in use. Instead, they had to choose between allowing the company to always collect location data (even after a ride ends) or shutting off the feature entirely. However, eliminating all location tracking means users must then enter their pick-up locations manually.
Uber claims that post-ride tracking was introduced to improve user safety, and that it never began using the feature on iPhone users and suspended the feature for Android users, the news report states. Reuters has further reported that Uber will restore the option of limiting location tracking to when the app is actively being used, and will roll this update to iPhone users this week. | <urn:uuid:2fdc5c6c-0196-4d84-8fb6-402de1ca6bed> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://www.scmagazine.com/news/endpoint-security/report-uber-to-discontinue-post-ride-tracking-of-app-users | 2022-01-25T07:37:10Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320304798.1/warc/CC-MAIN-20220125070039-20220125100039-00598.warc.gz | en | 0.963351 | 206 |
Is Seattle Bernie Sanders’ kind of town? The Democratic presidential candidate brings his fiery, anti-corporate rhetoric to Seattle on Saturday for two rallies that could attract thousands.
Ellen O’Shea, an organic farmer from Chimacum, Jefferson County, had planned to share a car and ferry ride with a couple friends to see Democratic presidential candidate Bernie Sanders on Saturday in Seattle.
But so many Olympic Peninsula neighbors were fired up to see the independent Vermont senator, they chartered what they’re dubbing the “Freedom Bus” for as many as 60 to get into the city.
With a socialist City Council member, $15 minimum wage and a statue of Lenin, Seattle is friendly territory for a candidate like Sanders — and organizers expect thousands from across the state will pack two events: a 1 p.m. Social Security event at Westlake Park and a 6 p.m. campaign rally at Edmundson Pavilion.
As the first 2016 contender to publicly campaign in Washington, Sanders’ visit contrasts with recent secretive stopovers by other candidates.

Democrat Hillary Rodham Clinton and Republican Jeb Bush each slipped into the Seattle area this year to mingle at penthouses and mansions with donors who paid thousands of dollars to attend. Sanders’ only scheduled fundraiser is a small, $200-a-person meet-and-greet at Capitol Hill’s Comet Tavern.
An avowed socialist who’d be the oldest president ever elected in the U.S., Sanders faces steep obstacles to winning the Democratic nomination compared to Clinton, who has led in polls and fundraising.
But Sanders’ fiery, anti-corporate rhetoric, tinged with the Brooklyn accent of his youth, has attracted progressive Democrats dissatisfied with their party’s presumed front-runner.
“I think there is growing unhappiness with establishment politics, with politics that just nibbles around the edges of issues,” Sanders said Thursday during a conference call with local reporters when asked what distinguishes him from Clinton.
There will not be “any significant change to the middle class of this country unless we have a mass political movement taking on the billionaire class,” he added.
Clinton, Sanders lead in donations from Washington state
He also pointed to his clear opposition to free-trade deals like the Trans-Pacific Partnership, and to his support for a national $15 minimum wage like the one in Seattle.
A former mayor of Burlington, Vt., Sanders was elected as an independent to the U.S. Senate in 2006 after serving 16 years as the state’s sole U.S. House representative. If he were to win, Sanders, 73, would be the oldest U.S. president ever inaugurated.
To many local supporters, the long track record is a comfort.
“No matter how far back you go, he’s always said the same thing,” said Mario Brown, of Edmonds, one of the organizers of Washington For Bernie Sanders, an unofficial volunteer group.
Several Sanders supporters said they’d jumped early in 2008 onto the candidacy of the charismatic but little known Sen. Barack Obama. They helped him to outorganize and beat Clinton — only to be disappointed when they felt his presidency failed to live up to the lofty campaign speeches and transformative image.
“I am feeling burned by him,” O’Shea said.
She doesn’t think that would happen with Sanders, whom she first encountered during an anti-war organizing meeting in the 1970s. Just to be sure he’s reliable, O’Shea said, she’s talked with friends in Vermont.
After Obama, “I don’t want to be projecting to anybody that this is a person we can trust without verifying that,” O’Shea said.
Sanders’ rallies in Seattle, which organizers said could draw 10,000 or more, will be followed by events in Portland on Sunday and Los Angeles on Monday. The Portland event was shifted to a bigger venue due to overwhelming demand, his campaign said.
A big part of Sanders’ appeal is his refusal to accept corporate donations, said Joe Rogerson, who plans to drive with a carful of supporters from Bellingham to Seattle Saturday. He said Obama “sold out to corporate America and the military-industrial complex” but that Sanders “seems more trustworthy than any other politician.”
Sanders said Thursday he’d apply a “litmus test” for any Supreme Court nominees — they must favor overturning the 2010 Citizens United ruling that opened new floodgates for big money in politics.
Some pundits and political insiders have questioned Sanders’ viability as a serious national contender, noting his long identification as a socialist, as well as Clinton’s massive advantage in fundraising and professional organization.
Paul Berendt, former chairman of the state Democratic Party, said Sanders’ “honest voice” appeals to many who feel “disenfranchised” by politics.
But Berendt, a Clinton supporter, said he believes the Vermont senator’s appeal is limited to a subset of mostly white progressives and that he “falls flat” with a wider electorate, including minority groups that are a big part of the Democratic Party’s constituency.
“He’s going to have a very hard time breaking out of that,” Berendt said.
Sanders’ backers here say they don’t buy the mainstream narrative that he cannot win.
Local organizers point to 200 house parties organized last month that drew thousands of supporters to start planning for how to win Washington’s Democratic caucuses on March 26.
David Spring, a Democratic activist from North Bend, said he was involved in Obama’s 2008 campaign early, “before anyone could even pronounce his name.”
“The support for Bernie Sanders goes much wider than the support for Obama did,” Spring said. | <urn:uuid:b243f482-5765-40e6-a021-a86690e8f7bc> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://www.seattletimes.com/seattle-news/politics/presidential-candidate-sanders-expected-to-draw-crowds-in-seattle-visit/ | 2022-01-25T08:36:08Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320304798.1/warc/CC-MAIN-20220125070039-20220125100039-00598.warc.gz | en | 0.959157 | 1,362 |
5 Peel-Off Masks That Are Satisfying to Use and Good for Your Skin
Very few things are as satisfying as removing a peel-off face mask; it’s right up there with taking off a pore strip or false lashes. We love how easy the masks are to use, too. Simply apply to clean skin, let it sit and gently peel away when it’s dry – no need to rinse again (have we mentioned that we’re obsessed with them?).
If you’re looking to build on your stash — every skin-care collection should house an assortment of masks! — we rounded up five of our favorite peel-off face masks to add to your rotation ASAP.
This liquid peel-off formula contains charcoal to detox your pores. Apply it to the oily areas of your face, like your T-zone or just on your nose. It dries in just ten minutes (perfect for a quick fix) and helps control sebum production.
Peel-off face masks aren’t just for detoxifying. This formula helps boost radiance with every use. Papaya in the peel removes dead surface skin cells and retexturizes your complexion, while citrus boosts brightness.
This purple, sparkly peel-off mask contains charcoal powder to help minimize the appearance of pores and decongest them. It’s great for spot-treating problem areas of your face or as an all-over treatment.
Dry skin? There’s a peel-off mask for that. This gel peel-off mask helps rejuvenate dehydrated skin with plant ingredients like cactus and sea fern algae extract. Vitamin C brightens a dull complexion and boosts radiance to give you a healthy glow.
In this white peel-off mask, pearl powder exfoliates and brightens while diamond powder boosts elasticity and helps remove impurities from your skin. It’s also rich in nourishing vitamins, so it’s a great addition to any weekly skin-care routine.

If you fancy a change from the Ritz, check out these new London hotels at the luxury end of the travel scale.
1. Best for Foodies - Belgraves Hotel, Belgravia
If east London is all about the experimental, west is all about guaranteed luxury. Enter the boho-chic Belgraves, the first British hotel from US-based Thompson, tucked away in a discreet corner of SW1. Despite having the Brit stamp – Tara Bernerd designed it, works by artists Miranda Donovon and Mat Collishaw hang on its walls – there’s also a Manhattan air with leather, wool and marble textures, a fitness centre and bijou rooms that make it ideal for a weekend getaway (but possibly too cramped for longer).
But Belgraves is really all about Mark Hix’s new outpost, Hix Belgravia, so on arriving early evening, we head straight there. In a booth, we were perfectly positioned for people watching (Middleton-alikes and tourists). Unlike Hix’s usual Brit-with-a-twist, this menu’s inspiration is global – I started with deliciously garlicky mushrooms on toast, followed by a burger so big even I had trouble finishing it. My husband went with a retro prawn cocktail followed by 300g of perfect medium-rare steak. A demi-carafe of wine was a civilised option, as we were still recovering from pre-dinner cocktails in the intimate library room upstairs.
Quick tip for drivers – the hotel can park your car for £45 a day, but weekend parking is free on nearby Belgrave Square.
Belgraves, 20 Chesham Place, London, SW1X 8HQ; doubles from £336 per night; thompsonhotels.com
12 mins walk: The challenging, eclectic exhibition Out Of Focus: Photography is on at the Saatchi Gallery until 22 July (saatchi-gallery.com) and is just a short stroll from the hotel down Sloane Street.
2. Best for theatrical types - St Ermin's Hotel, St James's Park
As a hub for MI6 in the Thirties and Forties, St Ermin’s was full of secrets and spies. It recently had a flamboyant £30m makeover and the lobby is a new masterclass in theatricality – rococo plaster-work, blinding white balconies, twinkling chandeliers and an incredible Gone With The Wind-style staircase.
But if the front of house is OTT, backstage is more calming. My room featured framed origami clothes made from local maps, hung on Vivienne Westwood wallpaper, The White Company toiletries waited on my claw-footed bath and mother of pearl-inlaid furniture, crisp linens and leatherembossed wardrobes ramped up the luxury factor.
With a cool cocktail bar and ‘field-to-fork’ menus in the Caxton Grill restaurant, St Ermin’s has a real buzz – and not just from the 200,000 bees housed on the roof.
Doubles from £160 per night; St Ermin’s Hotel, 2 Caxton St, St James’s Park, Westminster SW1H; sterminshotel.co.uk
7 mins walk: The bar at understated eaterie Roux At The Pembury (rouxatparliamentsquare.com) is luxurious but louche.
3. Best for Group Breaks - The Townhouse, Flemings, Mayfair
I’m not keen on self-catering – it brings back memories of Seventies holidays involving damp cottages, limp sarnies and board games. So it was with trepidation that I took a group of girlfriends to The Townhouse, a new private house addition to Flemings, one of London’s oldest hotels. My spirits soared when we arrived, though – this is the house I’d buy if I won EuroMillions.
It’s got seven bedrooms across two apartments and two suites (which you can hire separately or take the whole house), plus a grand dining room, hi-tech kitchens, a bar and a barbecue terrace. We cooed over silver-fern wallpaper, lounged on jewelcoloured velvet sofas and gawped at Wedgwood blue ceilings. Best of all, we found we didn’t have to self-cater. We popped next door – where you can take advantage of the hotel’s bars and restaurant, Flemings Grill – and sampled the Chocaholics Afternoon Tea, followed by a movie at ‘home’ on one of the many 3D TVs. If that sounds like too much effort, you can order private dining from your armchair too.
This is definitely a place you’d stay if you had a mini dog in your handbag, so it’s no surprise there’s a special dog menu, doggy spa services and little blankets on tap.
The Townhouse, flemings, 7-12 Half moon St, London W1J; exclusive use from £3,500 per night, apartments from £1,300; flemings-mayfair.co.uk
2 mins walk: Head to Burger & Lobster burgerandlobster.com for simple, great food – there’s no booking, bare tables and the choice is either burger or lobster, for £20.
4. Best for Fashion Lovers - Bulgari Hotel & Residences, Knightsbridge
Silver is the theme for Italian brand Bulgari’s new outpost – you pass handmade silver silk drapes, sit on dove-grey upholstery and gaze at solid silver chandeliers, all echoing the brand’s origins as a silversmith.
Italian flair is all about doing something once, perfectly so there’s one bar, one restaurant and one spa. I sampled an amazing cocktail in Il Bar (Au The Vert, a fragrant gin and jasmine tea based on the Bulgari fragrance of the same name) and a great supper of Sicilian red prawns served with clams and squid. But nothing tops the extravagant mini bar – shaped like a luxury travel trunk, the mahogany doors open to reveal five-star nibbles and drinks.
Bulgari Hotel & residences, 171 knightsbridge, London SW7; doubles from £500 per night; bulgarihotels.com
4 mins walk: From 16 July to 31 August, Harvey Nichols’ Fifth Floor Terrace hosts Penhaligon’s Peoneve terrace (harveynichols.com), a multi-sensory garden serving cocktails and desserts.
5. Best for Shoppers - Dorset Square Hotel, Marylebone
Firmdale Hotels are some of the coolest in the capital (the Charlotte Street Hotel and Covent Garden Hotel are both under their umbrella), and their latest opening in Marylebone is no different. Known for their English eccentric take on trad country style, the decor in my room is a surprisingly cheery grey (very Farrow & Ball Elephant’s Breath), livened up by a violet flower-print fabric, specially designed for the hotel by owner Kit Kemp and textile designer Christopher Farr, on cushions, day chairs and a huge headboard. There are also bubblegum-pink peonies by the bed, original art and deep-piled Argentinean carpets.
The best thing about staying in a hotel is the amount of pottering around you can do. I spent hours in my oak and marble bathroom sampling the Miller Harris bounty and hanging out in the countryhouse style drawing room downstairs. Dining here is also relaxed in the Potting Shed restaurant, which serves British classics such as sausage and mash and a delicious fish pie.
Dorset Square is an intimate little bolthole, with just 38 rooms, but it fits perfectly with the ‘upscale village’ vibe of the Marylebone area. Firmdale believes hotels should not be ‘stuffy institutions’ and it has made its point beautifully here.
Dorset Square Hotel, 39-40 Dorset Square, London nW1; doubles from £199 per night; firmdalehotels.com
12 mins walk: Le Labo, just off Marylebone High Street is a tiny little perfumery which custombottles scent right in front of you (lelabofragrances.com). | <urn:uuid:c709b607-232a-460e-8a07-a298e1db6f52> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://www.stylist.co.uk/travel/top-five-london-new-luxury-hotels/2109 | 2022-01-25T08:12:16Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320304798.1/warc/CC-MAIN-20220125070039-20220125100039-00598.warc.gz | en | 0.914848 | 1,800 |

Drive Wire: March 2, 2016
A new gorgeous Aston, a new Corvette, Lambo's 100th, super loud portable speakers, and going crazy in Dubai.
Hey guys, it’s Kristin Condon filling in for Christina Thompson and this is Drive Wire for Wednesday, March 2nd.
Big news out of Geneva – there’s a brand-new Aston Martin! The DB11 is here, and it is absolutely drop-dead gorgeous. Although we’re tempted to just shut up and let you look at Marek Reichman’s lovely, lovely design, but there’s too much to talk about. Everything on the car is new, from the bonded aluminum chassis to the Mercedes-Benz sourced electronics. Power comes from a twin-turbo 5.2 liter 12 cylinder engine, which uses cylinder deactivation to run as a straight-six while cruising. When it’s going full chat, the DB11 pumps out 600 horsepower and 512 foot-pounds of torque, which yields 60 in well under four seconds. And have we mentioned it gives you fits just looking at it? But prepared to shell out some serious cash – the DB11 will run you around $212,000 dollars when it arrives later this year.
Sporty news out of Chevrolet today – there’s a new Corvette Grand Sport. The legendary track-based Corvette returns with a bunch of tasty goodies for 2017. The Grand Sport keeps the Stingray’s 6.2 liter 460-horse V8, but adds a lot of other go-fast components like magnetic ride control, an electronic limited-slip differential, and carbon ceramic brakes. Add sticky Michelin pilot super sport tires and you have an un-beatable track package. Collector’s Edition Grand Sports will get a special Watkins grey metallic paint treatment with the traditional fender stripes in a color Chevy is calling Tension Blue. We know it’s a Corvette, so there will definitely be collectors all over it, but we hope this model, more than any other, actually gets driven.
Keeping up with Geneva trend – Lamborghini celebrated the 100th birthday of company founder Ferrucio Lamborghini by unveiling the Centenario, a 759-horsepower, all-carbon-fiber shard of V12. The monstrous power is transferred to all four wheels and is complete with stability-boosting rear-wheel steering. Lamborghini intends to make only 40 of these, 20 coupes and 20 roadsters, and is going to ask 1.9 million for each one. We doubt they’ll have any problems selling all 40 of them.
Turning to gear, we bring the concert to your backyard with the Soundboks, which claims to be the world’s loudest portable speaker system. The Soundboks boasts 119-decibel capabilities, a 30-hour battery life, and resistance to rain, shock, and dirt. Looks like it’s ready for any party you could throw, and of course, the volume knob goes to 11. It’s in Kickstarter now, so get in on the ground floor before it starts shakin’.
In today’s ridiculous video – Ken Block is back and badder than ever. With Dubai as his playground, Block does everything from donuts around a jumbo jet to drag racing a Bugatti. Sit back, relax and watch block hone his monstrous Ford Fiesta around the city of opulence. | <urn:uuid:d1f84d9b-c636-4fa6-a8c9-8ae3a0cb7882> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://www.thedrive.com/article/2412/drive-wire-march-2-2016 | 2022-01-25T09:19:20Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320304798.1/warc/CC-MAIN-20220125070039-20220125100039-00598.warc.gz | en | 0.902248 | 719 |
With DACA in the news 24/7 questions arise. Understanding the rights of illegal immigrants in the US can be challenging. Who do you believe, why is legalization important and what do we need to do for #Equality across the land.
How illegals can attend schools with out documents:
The U.S. Supreme Court ruled in Plyler vs. Doe (457 U.S. 202 (1982)) that undocumented children and young adults have the same right to attend public primary and secondary schools as do U.S. citizens and permanent residents. Like other children, undocumented students are obliged under state law to attend school until they reach a mandated age. As a result of the Plyler ruling, public schools may not:
Deny admission to a student during initial enrollment or at any other time on the basis of undocumented status.
Treat a student differently to determine residency.
Engage in any practices to "chill" the right of access to school.
Require students or parents to disclose or document their immigration status.
Make inquiries of students or parents that may expose their undocumented status.
Require social security numbers from all students, as this may expose undocumented status.
Students without social security numbers should be assigned a number generated by the school. Adults without social security numbers who are applying for a free lunch and/or breakfast program on behalf of a student need only indicate on the application that they do not have a social security number.
Changes in the F-1 (Student) Visa Program do not alter the Plyler obligations to undocumented children. These changes apply only to students who apply for a student visa from outside the U.S.
Finally, school personnel -- especially building principals and those involved with student intake activities -- should be aware that they have no legal obligation to enforce U.S. immigration laws. (U.S. Supreme Court, 1982)
What do citizens need to enroll children into schools?
Public schools often require quite a few documents to enroll in the district area school. You may be asked to complete an enrollment application to see which district school your child should be enrolled. You will also be expected to provide proof of your child’s age and identity, proof of residency, immunization records and other medical records, and or a portfolio showcasing your child’s skills. Charter schools will often require all of the above, specifically the portfolio. The most strict schools to enroll in are private school that often require an application, teacher recommendations, a formal placement assessment, and sometimes even an in person interview. As a general rule of thumb, you should have the following commonly required documents ready so you can enroll your child in school:
A birth certificate
Proof of guardianship and or custody
Proof of residency
Record of immunizations
Emergency contact forms
Enrolling your child in a new school through a transfer enrollment will often require all of the above documents AND/OR the below documents:
Former school records
It is important to reach out to the new school you wish to enroll your child in to find out the specific documents required. To get ahead of the game, you can obtain your child’s birth certificate from VitalChek to expedite the enrollment process. Learn more about how you can obtain government certified vital records visit VitalChek.com.
Applying for College with out being legal:
Here’s an encouraging fact that undocumented students should keep in mind when considering college: No federal law requires proof of citizenship for admission to U.S. colleges. Most institutions set their own admission policies. States that place restrictions on undocumented students, like Arizona, Georgia, South Carolina, Alabama, and Virginia, aren’t doing so to comply with any state or federal law. While it is true that undocumented status limits a student’s choices, it is possible to find a college or university that accepts undocumented students and provides enough funding to make attending feasible. However, students need to do a fair bit of research to determine if a school can accommodate them. Part of this research will involve directly contacting the school and asking questions about the school’s policy on undocumented students and, if it does recognize and accept them, the standard enrollment procedure.
Applying for College as a citizen:
High School Transcript: Most colleges will require a copy of your high school transcript. You can request this be sent to the college(s) you are interested in through your high school's office or your school counselor.
Application Fee: You might have to pay an application fee (anywhere from $20-$75). If you can't afford it, talk to an admissions counselor at the college to which you are applying. You may be able to get the fee waived.
College Admissions Tests: Most four-year colleges or universities require you to submit ACT or SAT scores. If you apply to a school with open enrollment, you may not need to take the ACT or SAT. Make sure you know test dates, times and locations. Talk with your school counselor about how to sign up for the test.
Letters of Recommendation: Four-year colleges or universities often require letters of recommendation. These recommendations are about what you've accomplished, what kind of potential you have, and why the person writing the letter believes you should be admitted to that college. Recommendation can come from your teachers, coaches, mentors, church leaders, employers and people you've worked with in your community. Recommendation cannot come from relatives.
Application Essay: If you plan on attending a four-year college or universities, you may have to write an application essay. This essay is a way to let a college know the real you. If the essay topic isn't provided, you can choose your own topic. If you need help, talk with a school counselor, teacher or parent.
Interview: If the school is very selective with its admissions process, you may have to schedule an interview. The best interview tip is to relax and be yourself.
Are Illegal Immigrants eligible for financial aid:
If I’m not an eligible noncitizen, can I get any type of financial aid to study in the U.S.?
Yes, there may be some scholarships and other aid you can get.
Check with your country’s embassy or a consulate here in the U.S. or with the appropriate government office back in your country to see what they offer.
Try the U.S. Department of Labor’s free online scholarship search.
Ask the college or career school you plan to attend whether they offer any aid for students like you.
Check out the Education USA website.
What type of financial aide do I qualify for as a citizen:
Complete the FAFSA
Once you have a clearer picture of the financial aid available, it is time to fill out the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). If you are interested in any form of need-based financial aid, this application is essential to determine your eligibility. Keep in mind that private institutions may have an additional form for you to fill out, so touch base with your prospective schools to inquire about their unique processes.
The FAFSA website is very user-friendly, but the process will go faster if you have the following items ready when filling out your form:
Social security number (including your parents’ if you are a dependent student)
Driver’s license number, if applicable
Federal tax information or returns (including parents’ or spouse’s, if applicable)
Records of untaxed income
Bank account, investment, and real estate asset information
I have an issue with the amount of information needed when it comes to the Legal Citizen of the US. I have an issue with the government needing All of my information when there are millions of Illegal Undocumented people getting breaks and educational benefits that are not easily accessible to those who were born here, pay taxes and abide by the law.
I have an issue with the amount of deception illegal immigration allows. How does anyone prove who they Really are if they have no ID, or verifiable identity?
I am for All to be educated and advance in life. But when the tables are not weighed the same and one benefits from NOT following Laws, Rules and Regulations, the Change needs to Occur.
I am for Equality, where everyone pays their fair share, where everyone can sign up for the programs they qualify for by providing the required documents.
Some see that illegals are treated poorly, left to fight for themselves... But if you read the above information, it seems that Citizens are:
1.) Required to provide more proof of idenity
2.) Required to provide more information for taxation
3.) Required to provide income verification for programs that are suppose to provide aide when needed
4.) Required to provide immunization records before being allowed to attend public schools
5.) Are treated with less respect and discretion than those who come here illegally or have been brought here in hopes of a better life.
When you fail to follow rules, others are forced to pay the consequences. Nobody is entitled to ANY benefits in life. Life is not about handouts and what you can get from someone else. Life is about working together to lift up each other. But when benefits are not accessible equally, there is NO UNITY! | <urn:uuid:2b5690d7-d9d7-4f93-9aff-d1396491e5df> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://www.thelionstares.com/post/society-education-how-illegal-immigrants-are-allowed-to-attend-public-schools-with-out-documents | 2022-01-25T08:00:27Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320304798.1/warc/CC-MAIN-20220125070039-20220125100039-00598.warc.gz | en | 0.948003 | 1,922 |
Sustainability at Ferrero
Global confectioner giant Ferrero has set the industry gold standard at its Belsk, Poland, manufacturing plant by collaborating with Trane to adopt environmentally responsible, energy efficient systems. Recent energy savings improvements at eight plant buildings, designed to meet a global corporate commitment to sustainability, are part of the Ferrero journey to attain a high performance building outcome.
The efficient solutions implemented by Trane at the Belsk plant make sound environmental and fiscal sense while demonstrating Ferrero’s global commitment to energy and operational efficiency and sustainability.
The Belsk plant improvements were undertaken to meet European sustainability goals established by the company’s leaders. Ferrero leaders plan to meet the following energy and sustainability goals:
- Derive 30 percent of energy use from renewable sources
- Reduce CO2 emissions by 40 percent and water consumption by 20 percent
- Use cogeneration plants or renewable resources to generate 100 percent of electrical power
Ferrero Polska incorporated the company’s global sustainability goals as part of a new construction effort undertaken in cooperation with Trane beginning in 2001. Since then, Ferrero Polska has completed more than 20 projects within eight main buildings aimed at creating sustainable, energy- and operationally efficient and comfortable environments.
All HVAC systems at the plant are fully integrated with the Trane building automation and control system, allowing Ferrero to simultaneously optimize each unit for the highest comfort, productivity and operational and energy efficiency levels. | <urn:uuid:d766b085-c9ed-4478-b9ad-acd13cbba1ad> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://www.trane.com/commercial/north-america/us/en/about-us/newsroom/thought-leadership/sustainability-at-ferrero.html | 2022-01-25T07:11:25Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320304798.1/warc/CC-MAIN-20220125070039-20220125100039-00598.warc.gz | en | 0.92169 | 303 |

In September 2019, Valtech launched its new Innovation Program. Different proofs of concept (POCs) were already being implemented in voice and VR. The following February, we presented the program to our clients, looking to kick things off in earnest. Of course, the Innovation Program wasn’t the only thing to hit around that time. It just so happened that COVID-19 began picking up steam around then as well. The question became, do we dump the new program all together, or do we find a way to move forward with it in the face of a global pandemic?
Valtech Innovation Program
Building the future relies on innovation. No advancement, technological or otherwise, has ever been achieved without it. As a tech company, we strongly believe that innovation has to be in concert with our customer. The best innovation isn’t completed by a small group of people in one place, it’s done with the customer not only in mind, but as a key part of the process.
The Valtech Innovation Program is based on this philosophy: We identify new ideas that address persistent client challenges, propose solutions that have never been tried before, and then develop proofs of concept to prove out and tweak the solution before full deployment.
What does this mean in a practical sense? Say one of our clients comes to us wanting to ameliorate the customer experience. We try to find new ways of interactions by leveraging new technologies. For example, we are using voice-activated technology in a new manner. For example, we came up with the idea to leverage voice recognition with an AR layer to create a better experience in video conferencing.
Valtech experts are selected based on innovation streams and industry knowledge. The intention is to get a number of different POCs completed in six different categories before the year ends:
- Dynamic Store
- Enhanced Reality
- Voice Interfaces
- AI Personalization
- Beauty Tech
- Social Commerce
Shifting Focus During COVID-19
As stated, this program was announced in February, and almost immediately after, COVID-19 hit North America and caused a lot of businesses to change their focus and their practices. Because the Innovation Program depends on customer participation to work, the notion that a number of our customers were putting projects on hold meant we had to think about the potential future of the program.
Instead of giving up and shifting our focus to what we needed to do to gain easy wins for ourselves, we thought about ways we could shift the priority of the Innovation Program to better meet the needs of our clients during this difficult time. With that in mind, the decision was made to bring the minds behind the program together with our account managers and start brainstorming different, innovative ways we could help support our customers.
For example, in the aftermath of COVID-19, we contacted one of the largest companies in Canada responsible for managing nursing homes and assisted living facilities with an idea that would help keep their at-risk residents safe. Elderly residents needed to practice social distancing, however the unplanned nature of social visits and staff servicing made it difficult for residents to be prepared for constant outsiders coming into their sanitary, safe rooms.
Additionally, public spaces were no longer a viable place to gather. To address this urgent issue, Valtech proposed repurposing a very efficient booking tool (initially developed to plan Santa visits in malls) to allow residents to make appointments and digital meetings with friends, family members, and even volunteers who might be able to help them meet their daily needs. Due to the ease of use of the platform, it is possible to quickly adjust it to help keep elderly people connected when the spaces they normally congregate in have been closed down and everyone is working to practice social distancing. It's important to note that the customer didn't run with this option, but they did love the idea and the intiative shown in coming up with the innovation.
In this sense, the Innovation Program’s current drive during the COVID-19 crisis isn’t to bring in customers and co-invest in new projects. The program currently exists to think of new applications and uses for the technology and platforms we’ve already created which will immediately benefit our customers and our community at large. Whether that’s a new way to repurpose and redesign a platform, or it’s a way to take something we’ve already created and make small changes to it so it’s more applicable to the current needs, we’re sending the message that we’re here for our customers during these trying times.
Innovating into the Future
In a time of crisis, the most important thing we all can do is come together to find ways to help each other and to serve our community. The best way to do that is to leverage what you know in a manner that can do the most possible good. At Valtech, that means taking what we know about technology and taking the work we’ve already done, and finding new ways to use it to the betterment of others.
Innovation can mean a number of different things at different times. For us, the Innovation Program we announced to the world in February is better served by innovating new ways to use existing tech than it is in developing new tech for now. That doesn’t mean it will always be this way.
Valtech is still very interested in leading the pack when it comes to co-innovating with our customers. It is our plan for the program as outlined earlier to resume as scheduled as soon as the worst of COVID-19 is behind us and we’re back to some kind of normal. In the meantime, we’ll keep working to innovate in different ways than expected. | <urn:uuid:e48ce510-9022-4c5a-a4aa-b7343cc3ef48> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://www.valtech.com/insights/repurposing-innovation-program/ | 2022-01-25T07:31:59Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320304798.1/warc/CC-MAIN-20220125070039-20220125100039-00598.warc.gz | en | 0.965738 | 1,188 |

GATLINBURG, Tenn. (WATE) — As Gatlinburg prepares for its Fourth of July celebration, city officials are asking visitors and residents to practice the COVID-19 safety guidelines.
Sevier County was considered a hot spot in the state, after several days of above average increasing number in positive COVID-19 cases.
Within the first three days of July, 111 tests results came back positive.
The number of increasing cases though didn’t deter tourists from visiting the county, which worried some residents.
Greg Snider lives in Pigeon Forge and he said that ever since the area reopened to tourists, the visitors haven’t been following safety guidelines, like wearing a mask or social distancing.
“It’s just a normal summer. Nothing’s changed. And so far as how I feel, I’m terrified to leave the house. It’s a death sentence for me and the tourists don’t care,” Snider said.
Snider said he believed apathy was the country’s worst problem amid the coronavirus pandemic.
“You know just respect the people that live here, respect the people that work here. Practice social distancing, be kind to the person next to you and respect their space. That’s all you gotta do to stop the spread of this,” Snider said.
Snider said he understands why cities are not canceling firework shows for Independence Day, but thought the cities and counties as a whole needed to do a better job at enforcing visitors and businesses to practice the guidelines.
Although Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg canceled their usual Fourth of July festivities, their firework shows will go on.
Marci Claude, public relations manager for the city of Gatlinburg, said that one reason why they canceled their midnight parade this year was because it would encourage people to crowd together.
She said that with the central location of the fireworks display, visitors should be able to watch the show from their cabins or rooms, or even while parked in their vehicle.
“The fireworks will go off on the top of the space needle. It is 407 feet tall above the city and so fireworks should be visible from everywhere across town,” Claude said.
Claude also said the city has posted signs across Gatlinburg reminding visitors to practice the safety guidelines.
“As a vacation destination, we would like our visitors to come prepared to mask up if they find themselves in a situation where it is difficult to practice social distancing,” Claude said.
Visitors and residents will also be able to live stream the firework show, which is another way to socially distant, according to Claude.
“The fireworks will be broadcasted live on WATE and the Nexstar Network, stations across the country. It will be 11 p.m., for and the show is about 10 minutes long so you can watch it that way. You can also watch it on Facebook Live. The Gatlinburg Skylift will be broadcasting the fireworks live on Facebook and so will Visit Gatlinburg,” Claude said.

Amid government unrest in yet another region of Africa, the US has threatened to ban US visa services for those found to be involved in sponsoring electoral violence. It’s understood that the US has said that it will ‘not hesitate to take action against anyone found guilty of undermining the Anambra governmental elections.
Elections are set to take place in Anambra State – a region in Nigeria located in the southeast of the country – on November 6. A statement issued by the White House said: “US visa restrictions may be placed on those found guilty of instigating violence during or after the election.
Meanwhile, the US said it will be ‘monitoring the elections closely, paying close attention to the actions of individuals who interfere with the democratic process. “We call on citizens, electoral officials, party members, and security force personnel to do their part in ensuring a credible and secure electoral process,” the White House statement said.
US immigration law
Under US immigration law, it’s not only those found guilty of interfering with the democratic process that face US visa restrictions, but their family members could also be denied a visa.
The threat made against Anambra State is the first of many made toward several countries this year, including a number of African nations. In April of this year, the Biden administration issued a US visa ban against Ugandan nationals following upheaval during the nation’s election process.
Elections in Uganda descended into chaos after controversial President, Yoweri Museveni, secured a sixth term in office having been in power since 1986. However, his closest challenger, Bobi Wine, disputed the result of the election and claimed that fraudulent activity had taken place.
Meanwhile, in a statement issued by US Secretary of State Antony Blinken at the time, he said: “Opposition candidates were routinely harassed, arrested, and held illegally without charge. Ugandan security forces were responsible for the deaths and injuries of dozens of innocent bystanders and opposition supporters. The election process was neither free nor fair.”
“The government of Uganda must significantly improve its record and hold accountable those responsible for flawed election conduct, violence, and intimidation,” Blinken added.
Trouble in Nicaragua
In July of this year officials in Nicaragua, a country in Central America, were hit with a US visa ban after 100 government representatives were accused of involvement in a crackdown on political opponents.
The current President of Nicaragua, Daniel Ortega, has been widely condemned by world leaders amid accusations that his regime targeted his opposition by having them arrested ahead of their elections this month.
At the time of issuing the US visa ban, the US Department of State (DoS) said: “The US visa restrictions will affect 100 members of the Nicaraguan assembly and judicial system, including prosecutors and judges, as well as some of their family members.”
“US visas already issued to designated individuals have been revoked. However, we are not at liberty to say which officials have had their visas rescinded.”

Video has played an increasingly important role in the life of digital marketers over the past few years. As digital marketers have become more familiar with in-stream video advertising, new insights and opportunities have emerged.
Google has historically positioned YouTube as an awareness channel, but mounting pressure from Facebook and the demands of advertisers looking to find more channels to acquire customers have led to an evolution in YouTube’s direct response capabilities.
YouTube TrueView for action ads are a prime example of Google’s attempt to turn their video property into a performance marketing engine, including attribution updates to better align user behavior with reported performance.
What are TrueView for action ads?
TrueView for action campaigns add prominent CTA (call-to-action) banners at the base of your TrueView video ads on YouTube, which help drive leads and conversions. The branded banner can be tailored to a specific action goal such as “Book now,” “Get a quote” or “Learn more.”
TrueView for action campaigns allow you to optimize for specific conversion events and move your customers along the path to purchase by encouraging actions like scheduling an appointment or requesting more information.
To understand how video works in the purchase journey, it’s important to have accurate attribution – and when looking at the relationship between video ad exposure and conversions, YouTube determined that the default attribution window for TrueView for action ads needed to change.
Key KPIs for TrueView ads
There are several KPIs you should be aware of before we explore the new updates.
An ‘engagement’ is when a user views your TrueView for action ad for a set minimum amount of time or clicks on the ad.
Once an engagement is completed and the viewer goes on to complete a given conversion action (within the conversion attribution window), then it is counted as a ‘conversion’ under the ‘Conversions’ column within Google Ads reporting.
A user must interact with an ad in order to generate a conversion, but as a reminder there are 3 different types of conversions that can be generated depending on the user interaction with the video ad:
- Click-through conversions (CTC): Counted when a user clicks on one of the interactive ad elements and then converts within the conversion attribution window set within Google Ads’ conversion settings (default window is 30 days).
- Engaged-view conversions (EVC): Counted when a user views your ad for at least 10 seconds (or watches the entire ad if it is less than 10 seconds) and then converts within the conversion attribution window set within Google Ads’ conversion settings (default window is now 3 days, see below to read changes made from the previous window of 30 days).
- View-through conversion (VTC): Counted when a user sees your ad for less than the time needed to count as an engagement (such as viewing for 5 seconds and skipping) and doesn’t click on it, but goes on to convert within the conversion attribution window (default window is 24 hours).
An engagement (watching for a set minimum amount of time or clicking on the ad) needs to occur in order to be counted as a conversion that is reported in the ‘Conversions’ column.
However, let’s say a user doesn’t engage with the ad (meaning they don’t watch at least 10 seconds or click on the ad) but they still go on to convert. Do they still count as a conversion?
Yes, the conversion is still counted – but that user gets counted as a view-through conversion and is reported in the ‘View-through conversions’ column, which is separate from the ‘Conversions’ column in the campaign reporting.
Your ‘View-through conversions’ column tells you when customers see, but don’t engage with, your ad, and then later complete a conversion on your site. This is different from the data in your ‘Conversions’ column.
You may be wondering, if VTCs have their own column, where are CTCs and EVCs reported? CTCs and EVCs are included in the ‘Conversions’ column because the user had to interact with the ad and then converted; when the user doesn’t interact or engage with the ad but still converts, they get reported as a VTC in the separate ‘View-through conversions’ column.
What’s new about TrueView for action ads?
Google is reducing the amount of time needed for a YouTube video view to count as an “engagement.” There is now a lower threshold for what is considered a conversion due to the definition of engaged-view conversions.
YouTube will now count ‘engagements’ as whenever a user clicks on an ad or watches 10 seconds (or the entire video if it’s shorter than 10 seconds) of a TrueView for action ad instead of requiring a user to watch 30 seconds, which was the previous threshold.
YouTube is also shortening the conversion attribution window. Formerly ‘conversions’ were counted if someone watched at least 30 seconds of an ad and converted within 30 days. However, Google has now shortened the default conversion window from 30 days to just 3 days.
Note that you can always reach out to your Google team to increase this new conversion attribution window if it doesn’t align with your business or conversion cycle. You might want to do this if most actions in your conversion cycle are historically taken after 3 days, so the shorter default window would result in fewer conversions for your business.
This change in default attribution window will only affect engaged-view conversions. There are no changes to the click-through conversion attribution window. Click-through conversions will still be attributed according to your chosen click-through conversion window (default is 30 days) within Google Ads.
View-through conversion attribution will also stay the same. So when a user sees your ad for less than 10 seconds and doesn’t click, but still goes on to convert on your site, those view-through conversions will still be attributed according to your chosen view-through conversion window (default is 24 hours).
How Will These Changes Affect Advertisers?
This attribution change could have a significant impact on conversions as they are defined within Google Ads reporting. Performance will likely appear very different (better) if you are looking at Google data as the “source of truth” for reporting, since the bar for conversions has been lowered with the shorter engagement requirement of 10 seconds.
That being said, there is a trade-off that balances out the now shorter engagement threshold of 10 seconds (which will likely lead to more conversions being reported) with the now shorter conversion attribution window of 3 days (which will likely lead to fewer conversions being reported).
The net impact of these changes will depend on the duration of your videos, how long your videos are viewed by your target audience, and how long viewers take to ultimately convert on your website or app. It will also depend on whether you consider Google conversion data as the source of truth for your reporting.
If you consider Google conversion data as your source of truth, then you should see better performance and your optimization workflow will probably not change much since it’s all closed loop within Google Ads. Given that TrueView for action campaigns require using Google Smart Bidding options, you will likely see faster ramp up times (since there should theoretically be more conversions coming through with the lowered engagement window).
If you are like most marketers and have a hybrid workflow where your internal data is the source of truth but you map that internal performance data against Google data to take advantage of in-platform reporting and optimization, you will likely see the biggest impact. This new attribution will likely require a realignment between conversions as reported within Google and what is reported within your backend system to make sure the two are in sync.
Given that TrueView for action campaigns are optimized towards conversions via Google Smart Bidding options, they will continue to be billed on a CPM basis so there is no major impact expected here.
That being said, it could have an impact on overall auction pricing, which could have an effect on CPMs over time.
As Google continues to compete for advertisers’ business against Facebook, we expect the YouTube platform to continue to evolve towards a direct response channel. There’s no doubt that YouTube, with its 1.8 billion active users, can drive significant brand awareness and reach benefits. The effectiveness of direct response advertising on the platform remains to be seen. | <urn:uuid:14c39d66-fe33-44bb-a517-1db3657d6cdf> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://www.wpromote.com/blog/social/youtube-trueview-for-action-updates | 2022-01-25T07:18:10Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320304798.1/warc/CC-MAIN-20220125070039-20220125100039-00598.warc.gz | en | 0.935023 | 1,770 |

Click submit, and the screen that will be displayed is the current financial status of your grant. A more complete guide to viewing your grant in Wings Express can be found in the Grants Administration Workshop (PDF). For additional information view the Wings Express Finance module support page.
Requests for a no-cost extension (NCE) should be submitted to the sponsor by Post Award. Please contact the grants accountant for your project if you would like a no-cost extension for your grant. You will need to provide the new end date that you would like to request and the justification for the extension (e.g. additional time needed to complete the project due to the grant being awarded late). In most cases, additional time to expend all of the funds is not an acceptable justification. The grants accountant will contact the sponsor and request the extension. You will be notified once the approval has been received from the sponsor. In the case of grants from the National Science Foundation, Department of Health and Human Services, National Science and National Aeronautics and Space Administration, a one-year NCE is automatic; subsequent requests for NCE need justification.
PIs are responsible for submitting the technical reports to the sponsor. The frequency of the reporting requirements is documented in the award agreement and reiterated on the Project Administrative Summary (budget sheet). System generated emails are sent out 30 days before the report is due, on the due date, and when the report becomes 30 days past due. When the report is submitted to the sponsor, Post Award is to be copied on the email that submits the report so that proof of submission can be documented and allow the grants accountant to satisfy the reporting requirement in Banner. (If the report is submitted by US Mail, a copy of the cover letter that accompanied the report is to be sent to RSP.)
NOTE: Failure to submit technical reports in a timely manner can delay payment of an invoice, delay closeout of the grant, cause an audit finding, or could result in loss of future funding.
All fiscal reports are to be submitted by Post Award and are based on the information that is documented in Banner, the system of record. If a technical report has a fiscal component to it, the PI is to forward that part of the report to the grants accountant for the project. The grants accountant will prepare the information, which will be certified by the Director of Post Award, and forwarded back to the PI to be submitted as part of the technical report.
NOTE: This is necessary because other institutions have received an audit finding for failure to review and certify financial information that was submitted on technical reports, whether the information was accurate or not.
Requests for a revision to the budget should be submitted to the sponsor by Post Award. Please contact the grants accountant for the project for this request. Please provide the amount of budget that you would like to revise, from which account line, to which account line, and the justification for the revision (e.g. additional effort to be performed by the GRA in lieu of supply or travel expense). The grants accountant will review the grant file and determine if sponsor approval is required; if required, the grants accountant will contact the sponsor to request the revision. Once approval is obtained, or if sponsor approval is not required, a budget revision entry will be generated by the grants accountant. You will be notified of the approval at that time.
The budget is broken down into two parts:
- The first part is the budget as awarded by the sponsor.
- The second part is the cost share budget. Cost share or match is the portion of the budget that is covered by another source other than the sponsor such as:
- The University general fund (FOAP 19000x-2xxxxx-xxxxxx-xxxxx).
- The Foundation (FOAP 5xxxxx-2xxxxx-xxxxxx-xxxxx).
- Another grant that is allowed to be matched (i.e. federal funds matching state funds.
- Another source that is external to Wright State
If the cost share is mandatory (i.e. specified in the award agreement), WSU must report to the sponsor how much of the cost share has been incurred. This information is captured by adding the grant number in the “Activity Code” field of the FOAPA if the cost share is being expensed to a University Fund or a Foundation Fund.
NOTE: The sponsor may withhold payment of an invoice if the University is not sharing the cost of the project in proportion to the cost that the sponsor is being invoiced.
There is a difference in “invention disclosure” and “invention reporting.” An invention disclosure, or invention disclosure report, is a confidential document written by a scientist or engineer for use by a company's patent department, or by an external patent attorney, to determine whether patent protection should be sought for the described invention. It may follow a standardized form established within a company
An invention disclosure within a company may go through the following stages:
- Submission of the invention disclosure details by the inventor.
- Review of the disclosure by business and technical reviewers. The reviewers grade the idea as 'pursue' or 'do not pursue' based on its perceived novelty or business importance. They might also decide to publish it as a defensive publication if the idea is novel but not aligned with the business interests.
- If the disclosure is accepted to be pursued further, a patent attorney is assigned for preparing a patent application.
For more information, please contact the Office of Technology Transfer.
At the end of the research project WSU may be required to submit the sponsor’s form to report to the sponsor if there are inventions or patents that are a result of the research. All inventions must be reported, regardless of whether they are patentable. In addition to tangible products, other examples of inventions include new software, new reagents, new uses for existing reagents, new cell lines, and new animal models. If, as PI, you believe you may have created something commercializable, such as an invention for patenting purposes, useful software, or research materials that you envision sharing with others (either for free or for a fee), please contact the Office of Technology Transfer. | <urn:uuid:382f9328-2884-4b57-9b01-f2201ab5de20> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://www.wright.edu/research/research-and-sponsored-programs/post-award/grant-management | 2022-01-25T08:32:23Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320304798.1/warc/CC-MAIN-20220125070039-20220125100039-00598.warc.gz | en | 0.926627 | 1,888 |
The Guardian is reporting that Leeds have rejected three bids of £7 million from Middlesbrough, Crystal palace and West Brom today. The news comes as Taylor is out through injury and has been for a few weeks. The Guardian are normally a reliable source and this is a big statement from Leeds United.
In today’s market Charlie Taylor is well worth the £7 million price-tag but Leeds are holding out for what seems to be the summer. Taylor will leave on a free transfer but it seems the possibility of Leeds making the play-offs is a stronger incentive for the football club, a refreshing and positive move from the club.
West Brom have been sniffing around Taylor for a while now but the other two clubs have joined the party and will be looking at Taylors contract situation as good news as they look to molester their squads ahead of the relegation battle they are currently in. West Brom are the highest of the three and are having a good season.

Pope Francis Christmas Address Calls for Peace in Syria and Middle East & Urges the Faithful to Have an Open Heart, to Avoid ‘Pride, Deceit & Self-Seeking’
During his first Christmas address to the throngs of faithful outside of St. Peter’s Basilica and across the world , Pope Francis called for Peace in the Middle East and for all to have an open heart, to avoid pride, deceit and self-seeking. The Pope hoped for a better world, including successful Middle East negotiations in the land of Jesus’ birth, peace for Syria, South Sudan, the Central African Republic, Nigeria and Iraq, and dignity for refugees fleeing misery and conflict.
Pope Francis on Christmas Day is wishing for a better world, with peace for the land of Jesus’ birth, for Syria and Africa, as well as for the dignity of migrants and refugees fleeing misery and conflict.
Francis spoke from the central balcony of St. Peter’s Basilica Wednesday to tens of thousands of tourists, pilgrims and Romans in the square below. He said he was joining in the song of Christmas angels with all those hoping “for a better world,” and with those who “care for others, humbly.”
Among places ravaged by conflict, Francis singled out Syria, South Sudan, the Central African Republic, Nigeria and Iraq. He also prayed for fruitful peace talks between Israelis and Palestinians
The Pope calls for Lord of Life to protect all that are persecuted in your name. Pope Francis went on to say, “Child of Bethlehem, touch the hearts of all those engaged in human trafficking that they realize the gravity of this crime against humanity. Look upon the many children who are kidnapped, wounded and killed in armed conflicts and all those who are robbed of their childhood and forced to become soldiers.”
“Dear brothers and sisters today in this World in this humanity is born this Savior, who is Christ the Lord. Let us pause before the child of Bethlehem.”
During his first Christmas Eve Mass as head of the Catholic Church, Pope Francis encouraged the faithful to emulate Jesus to avoid the darkness of the world. | <urn:uuid:a74f0903-7618-446a-8fe7-8531f5ccdd26> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | http://scaredmonkeys.com/2013/12/25/pope-francis-christmas-address-calls-for-peace-in-syria-and-middle-east-urges-the-faithful-to-have-an-open-heart-to-avoid-pride-deceit-self-seeking/ | 2022-01-26T18:01:52Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320304959.80/warc/CC-MAIN-20220126162115-20220126192115-00678.warc.gz | en | 0.957059 | 444 |
Dr. Goedele A. M. De Clerck is a Marie Sklodowska-Curie Fellow at the Social Research with Deaf People (SORD) group at the University of Manchester (UK). She has been working with deaf people and sign communities in Europe, the United States and Africa. Her talk at our Oxford event potentially exposes a very wide audience to insight into the strengths in their own lives through exploring the incredible achievements of deaf people. You can find more about Goedele’s work here and here
SS: Goedele, how did you get to your current position? What or who inspired you to get a career in science?
GDC: I have never really pursued an academic career as such. My motivation has always been to do research, understand deaf people’s lives better and to provide resources in support of deaf people’s wellbeing. I have been fortunate to be able to have inspiring mentors during my PhD, both in the area of anthropology and deaf education. These academics encouraged innovative research and academic debate, and combined high level academic work with inspiring teaching and community support. This support was vital to be able to continue doing research after my doctoral degree.
SS: What is the most fascinating aspect for your research?
GDC: Identifying strengths in our lives and living up to our potential are vital to all of us. In the 13 years that I have been working with deaf people and deaf communities around the world, and that I have been doing life story work, I have continued to be fascinated by people and by my work. These stories are being told in different signed languages and in creative ways, for example through drama or signed videos. Each story is unique and surprizing, and through studying these stories we gain a better understanding of deaf people’s lives, how they have met challenges, etc. There is so much to be learned from it in support of better education, equality, and wellbeing.
SS: What attracted you to soapbox science in the first place?
GDC: Being a soapbox science speaker enables me to share a positive perspective on deaf people’s lives. For too long, their fascinating processes of empowerment and emancipation have remained in the shadows and in the margins. I am thrilled to expose a very wide audience to insight into the strengths in their own lives through exploring the incredible achievements of deaf people.
SS: Sum up in one word your expectations for the day.
SS: If you could change one thing about the scientific culture right now what would it be?
GDC: Sustainable development of research has become under pressure; academia is increasingly adopting market values and I think that this deserves more attention and reflection.
SS: What would be your top recommendation to a female PhD student considering pursuing a career in academia?
GDC: Belief in yourself and in what you are doing and keep room for ‘play’, laughter and creativity, within and outside academia. | <urn:uuid:df60c8a0-5021-439c-b5fd-1d333dd458be> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | http://soapboxscience.org/2016/05/05/deaf-life-stories-what-they-reveal-about-the-potential-within-all-of-us/ | 2022-01-26T18:06:08Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320304959.80/warc/CC-MAIN-20220126162115-20220126192115-00678.warc.gz | en | 0.970216 | 613 |
This article will show you how to win on slots. This article will show you how to win on slot machines.
Many people believe that practice makes perfect. Before playing, a player must learn how to win at slots. Practice your skills with free, casino-friendly games. Customers can access a 24 hour support service at the casino to answer any questions. You may also be eligible for comps or freebies. This is great, right?
If you choose a slot machine that offers a high bonus, high jackpot, or has more bonus spins, your chances of winning can be increased. You should be looking for special conditions such as long payout periods or extremely high jackpots. Many casinos offer first-time customers bonuses, comps and giveaways. You should look for slot machines with great themes, types, and minimum-maximum bets. All slots have one RNG. Choose the one that has a greater payout percentage than 90 percent.
Before you play, make sure to check the pay-table. This will help you determine which combination wins and how much you will be paid. The pay-table also shows the payout percentage. You can play any game or machine that you wish. This will increase your chances of winning. You should play progressive machines that have as many pay lines and as many coins as possible. It is a bad idea to spend all your money on one slot. You can give a portion of your cash to the game and still have enough money in your pocket to pay for it even if you lose. This will help you avoid losing too much and ensure you don’t spend too much. Do not try to recover what you have already lost. You will lose more. If you win, stop playing. To avoid the temptation to gamble more or lose the money you won, you should immediately stop playing. You can also get your winnings if you are short of cash.
Another tip: Play with your friends. Play with friends to share the jackpot. You will also have a better chance of winning and it is much more fun than playing alone.
Slot machines can be described as a game. We can win or lose. This is a game. It should be fun. Don’t be discouraged or frustrated if you lose. Slots are easy to play without any special skills. You can play at your own pace. The slots can be played at your own pace. | <urn:uuid:3ba024b1-d375-451f-8f44-6464066eb795> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | http://theforumguys.com/playing-slot-machines/ | 2022-01-26T17:59:02Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320304959.80/warc/CC-MAIN-20220126162115-20220126192115-00678.warc.gz | en | 0.962871 | 490 |
The chairwoman of the home monetary solutions Committee stated she intends to upfront a bipartisan statement to demand a rigid maximum on rates of interest when Congress reconvenes next year.
Under national legislation, lenders are prohibited from providing debts to active-duty armed forces members with rates higher than 36 percentage. Nevertheless the statement, spearheaded by 16 Democrats and one Republican, would expand that defense to any or all Americans.

But Cordrays deviation in 2017 open the door for Trump appointees to change or temper a lot of the CFPBs intense financial sector oversight.
However, oceans mentioned Thursday that Democrats on economic service panel will battle for the agency in a Supreme courtroom instance complicated its constitutionality. The higher courtroom in March will hear an incident questioning whether or not the CFPBs build infringes from the presidents executive expert.
The CFPB are directed by a single movie director appointed by chairman, verified by the Senate, and simply fireable for cause, which is generally speaking considered to be misconduct or extreme incompetence. Experts associated with CFPB argue that the directors energy and independence impedes the chairmans power on the executive part.
Republicans about monetary treatments panel argued in a short posted this week that Supreme Court should hit on the bureaus structure and ask Congress to correct they. Oceans said Thursday that she and committee Democrats will recommend in defense of this CFPBs framework, even as Kraninger and Trump inquire the legal to limit their electricity .

Not all home pizza ovens are made equivalent. Some are only for broadly useful preparing and cooking. While others are explicitly intended to heat various pizzas considering quality.
The Wrong Tool:
On the off chance that you’ve been utilizing your common kitchen oven in preparing Pizza mua 1 tặng 1 thứ 4, you without a doubt experienced issues in regards to consistency in quality. There were times when the pizza came out ‘perfectly,’ yet more often than not they’re either singed, over-cooked, half-cooked, unevenly-cooked or saturated in surface. At that point there’s the issue with taste that disintegrated due to helpless preparing hardware. You presumably additionally took a stab at utilizing various plate, including pizza stones, setting blocks or putting volcanic rock just to heat the pizza at the correct temperature for a preset length.
The Jack-of-All-Trades Oven:
The awful news and the miserable the truth is that most, if not all, of these stunts does not change that reality that you are utilizing an inappropriate hardware for the activity. It resembles driving a truck in a circuit when a progressively reasonable racecar will admission much better. The ordinary kitchen oven is intended for universally useful preparing and cooking. These incorporate preparing bread, treats, cake, lasagna or cooking hamburger, turkey, or chicken and that does exclude your preferred pizza.

The US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) will not approve leveraged Bitcoin Exchange-Traded Funds (ETF), says a report.
SEC Won’t Approve Leveraged Bitcoin Fund
As per a report from Wall Street Journal, the SEC has told at least one asset manager not to go ahead with plans for a leveraged Bitcoin ETF.
An exchange-traded fund is an investment product that tracks the price of a particular asset. This means that investors can invest into the said asset without actually owning it.
There are a few benefits to investing into an ETF instead of the asset itself. In the case of Bitcoin, investors who aren’t versed with the crypto world may consider such a fund an easier way to invest as they no longer need to deal with digital currency exchanges and wallets.
Another advantage is the ability to trade both long and short. When you hold BTC, you only profit when the price moves up. But trading in ETF makes it possible to earn gains in either direction.
Earlier this month, the ProShares ETF became the first such Bitcoin fund to launch, and observed record-breaking demand. Now asset managers are looking to open more products featuring the crypto, and a leveraged ETF is one of the ideas.
However, as mentioned earlier, the SEC has already shot down one of the prospectors from proceeding ahead with it.

The partnership aims to improve treatment outcomes and reduce the risk of misdiagnoses by removing language barriers between care providers and their Limited English Proficiency (LEP) clients and families.
Credible Partner Agencies employ over 100,000 staff and treat over two million clients annually, many of whom require language assistance. Credible will promote Jeenie’s mobile interpreting app to its network of over 500 Agency locations across the United States to provide remote video interpreting to care providers and clients during a time when Coronavirus makes in-person interpreting risky for interpreters, doctors, and patients.

Care providers and clients don’t have to walk down the hall to crowd around a computer or landline to hold a conversation. It’s easy to set up and easy to use relative to older and more expensive solutions on the market, and we think it will dramatically improve communication challenges faced by our behavioral health agencies every day.” said Jaclyn O’Donnell, Executive Vice President of Credible. Credible’s CEO and Co-Founder, Matthew M. Dorman, stated, “Credible looks forward to rolling Jeenie out nationwide over the coming weeks and months.”
Jeenie connects healthcare providers and qualified, HIPAA-trained, medically assessed language interpreters on any mobile device at any time of day. Providers can use the Jeenie app for three-way video or audio conversations with a live interpreter to communicate with LEP and Deaf clients, as well as their family members. Jeenie’s on-demand technology is easy to use, with no scheduling hassles or advance reservations required; users simply connect with an interpreter in under a minute whenever they need one. Because Jeenie is entirely mobile, providers can rely on instant-access interpreters in virtually any clinical setting.
“The risks to client health that result from language barriers continue to rise — primarily because the solutions on the market today are too inconvenient to use, are too costly, and don’t scale.” said Kirsten Brecht Baker, CEO and Co-Founder of Jeenie. “We’re going to tackle this problem health on with Credible and we look forward to showcasing the power of Jeenie’s gig economy model to improve patient outcomes, promote health literacy, and reduce provider expenses.”

We can do a lot to keep you healthy and fit for a long time. In everyday life, this is often not easy: Stress is on the nerves, lack of time thwarts the plans for healthy eating, the full desk prevents us from sufficient movement.

Especially since the health insurance companies cover the costs for a one-time check-up for people between the ages of 18 and 35 and every three years for people over the age of 35.
What is the goal of the health check-up?
The main aim of the health check-up examinations is to detect and treat illnesses at an early stage.
At the check-up one is specially checked for cardiovascular and kidney diseases as well as diabetes mellitus. But other illnesses that have not yet made themselves felt, can be determined by the investigations during the check-up.
What does the cashier pay?
The funds pay for insured persons between the ages of 18 and 35 unique the check-up. Blood tests take place here only with a corresponding risk profile; An examination of the urine is not planned.
From the age of 35 pay the health insurance in the context of the statutory early identification and screening for men and women every three years a so-called health check-up. You can have this check-up 35 carried out by the family doctor. However, only underlying assets are charged - if you want to know more, you need to get your own wallet back.
Benefits of the basic health check-up from 35
As with any medical examination, this includes a conversation with a survey of pre-existing conditions, risk factors and family-related medical history as well as one Whole-body examination to the program. This includes the following examinations:
- Listening to the heart and lungs
- the measurement of blood pressure and pulse
- determination of body weight and body mass index (BMI)
Through these examinations, for example, the doctor can detect or rule out COPD (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease) or high blood pressure (hypertension).
Laboratory examinations and medical consultation at check-up from 35
Besides such physical examinations are also laboratory values relevant. For this blood is taken and - as well as the urine - examined in the laboratory. This will be a complete lipid profile which includes total cholesterol, LDL and HDL cholesterol and triglycerides. On the basis of the determined values, the physician can identify possible metabolic diseases such as diabetes mellitus or kidney disease.
Elevated blood lipid levels, such as cholesterol levels, may indicate an inappropriate diet or hereditary lipid metabolism disorders. These represent an increased health risk with possible consequences such as a heart attack or stroke and should therefore be recognized and treated as early as possible.
If the doctor sees the need, so-called systematic detection of such cardiovascular risks Risk charts. Depending on the result, a consultation then takes place, as the risk of cardiovascular disease can be reduced.
Basically, there should always be a doctor final discussion in which the findings and consequences are discussed. In the best case, the doctor will advise those affected and help them with concrete tips to eat healthier, to move more and to work more relaxed. Also the Verification of vaccination status is one of the services.
Additional services of the health check-up
The regular health check-up can be extended by a variety of additional services as desired and required. Most additional examinations can be done flexibly, individually and without prior agreement.
However, these further examinations must - if they are not justified by a suspicion diagnosis - be paid from the own pocket, since for them no obligation obligation of the legal health insurance exists. Therefore, these additional benefits are also referred to as IGeL (individual health services). Nonetheless, additional benefits may make sense in individual cases.
To judge the Cardiovascular situation In addition to paid services, a resting or exercise ECG may be performed.
In addition, a large blood picture and the Determination of further blood values help to detect diseases. These include, for example:
- Thyroid value (TSH)
- Kidney value (creatinine)
- Liver Values (GOT, GPT, GGT)
- Uric acid (blood level for the detection of gout)
In humans (usually) from the age of 50, an ultrasound examination of the heart (echocardiography) may be recommended, supplemented by an ultrasound (duplex) of the cerebral vessels. However, these examinations are usually performed only in case of complaints or suspected heart disease.
The function of lung can be tested by spirometry to detect possible respiratory disorders. The abdominal organs can be checked by ultrasound.
Often, the check-up is also a Examination of eyes and ears advocates: The hearing test (audiometry), first signs of age-related hearing loss can be detected. During the reflection of the ocular fundus, vascular changes can be detected, for example, that indicate hypertension or diabetes, but also provide information about the general vascular status. Ophthalmologists also recommend measuring the intraocular pressure.

Often the health check-up is coupled with cancer screening for cancer detection, which varies according to age. The costs of the following services are covered by the health insurance companies:
- From 20 years once a year examination for cervical cancer
- From 30 years once a year examination for breast cancer by scanning, from 50 years every two years invitation to mammography
- From 45 years once a year examination for prostate cancer
For men and women:

We are on the verge of Fall and the harvest season in Nagano. Jim is looking forward to joining in the picking and sorting of the grapes at the nearby San Cousair winery later this month. The weather was quite wet and cloudy during September and the vineyard manager, Makoto Tsuchiya, is a bit anxious if the rains continue through October. We are keeping our fingers crossed.
This month we are continuing what we did in March and going back to check the recent offerings from wineries that we have liked in the past. The wineries we selected are the Obuse Winery run by the iconoclastic Akihito Soga and the Chateau Mercian Mariko Vineyard, which is operated by the Kirin Brewery Corporation.
We welcomed the New Year in Nagano with more than abundant snow. Quite a contrast to the previous year when the weather was generally warm and any precipitation usually took the form of rain. Needless to say, the pandemic has been a dark cloud on most everything – except our favorite pastime, which is to sit in front of our wood-burning stove holding a glass of wine with our young German Shepherd sleeping comfortably by our side.

Ah, the moment when you, as a small business owner, sign on a new customer!
You go through the onboarding process and get the client set up and settled in. You get excited about the upcoming opportunity. Maybe you share a round of high fives with your team or celebrate with a happy dance in the middle of the office. (What, no one else? Just us? Oh ok…)
Then some time goes by, you go on with your daily activities, focus on getting more clients, and grow your business. Then one day you realize that that client you were so excited about is…well, no longer your client. Somehow, at some point, the customer stopped coming back to patronize your store or cancelled his or her subscription. You might even learn that that customer is now your competitor’s customer! On, no! What happened?! You feel like a dummy for losing teh customer (and perhaps not even realizing it).
Losing customers is heartbreaking for a small business owner. It is even more so if we take a look at customer retention analytics. After all, it’s so much harder and so much more expensive to sell to new clients as opposed to existing customers.
And so the important task for businesses is to retain their customers as much as possible. How? Well, that’s a good question. And we asked some experts to share their best tips on how to gain customer loyalty.
Here are five strategies that can help avoid losing loyal customers.
Know Your Customer Better Than The Back Of Your Hand
First of all, knowledge is power. Especially when it comes to customers.
In his new book Brand Hacks, Emmanuel Probst explains the importance of collecting, analyzing, and activating data that brands own about their customers (first-party data). He believes that understanding customer behavior can help avoid losing loyal customers.
“Ask customers how, when, and why they use the brand’s products,” Probst says.
He offers a great example of data collection and use.
“When a consumer buys razor blades at Costco, Gillette doesn’t know anything about his shaving habits. In contrast, Dollar Shave Club knows about its members’ skin type, how frequently they shave, and the pages they visit on its website. From there, the brand can cross-sell and upsell companion products that will come across as relevant and helpful to the customer. How about an aftershave for a customer with sensitive skin? Or a shaving oil that matches the scent of the member’s shaving foam?”
“First-party data enables brands to establish a win/win relationship with their customers. On one hand, the customer is presented with products that are timely and relevant. On the other hand, the brand retains and grows its most loyal customers with thoughtful and purposeful offers.”
~Emmanuel Probst, Global Lead at Ipsos
Companies can collect first-party data through various sources. They include analytics from website, app, and/or product, CRM-stored data, social media, subscription-based emails or products, customer experience surveys, and other customer feedback sources (Hubspot)
Use Your Healing Powers and Make it Right
It’s inevitable. Businesses are run by people and people make mistakes. So sometimes things will go wrong. Dealing with angry clients is not an easy task, but doing it the right way can help avoid losing loyal customers.
Harrison Tanner Baron, CEO of Growth Generators offers the following tips for high-stress situations.
- First, remain calm. Two angry or upset people are worse than one.
- Second, be understanding. Use a soft tone of voice. This helps keep people from getting very angry because you aren’t matching their energy.
- Third, apologize. Regardless of who is wrong in the situation, it’s easy to apologize and take the blame. Once the customer understands they aren’t wrong, even if they might have been, it now allows you to move forward with a solution.
- Fourth, make it right. Do what you can to make the situation right. If your company did mess up, go out of your way to do something nice for teh customer. It’s easy to send someone an edible arrangement or buy them lunch on Doordash. It makes a world of difference to the customer. Going above and beyond for customers like that can turn them into raving fans. It will remove their desire to spread negative information about your business. And, therefore, help you avoid losing loyal customers.
Writing an apology letter is another great way to make things right. Here is an example of a successful one from customer experience expert Shep Hyken.
Talk, Nurture, Evolve to Avoid Losing Loyal Customers
Aside from using customer feedback for upselling and cross-selling purposes, the process of asking for feedback has its own powers.
David Batchelor, President of DialMyCalls, recommends having account representatives send out a bi-weekly follow-up. The email should ask if there is anything your customers wish you could do differently. This strategy can help constantly update products or services for the better. That, in turn, will surely keep customers happy, he says.
“Nobody has a perfect product or service and customers will be quick to tell you what they wish your service or product could do, even if they are loyal customers.”
~David Batchelor, President of DialMyCalls.com
In addition to reaching out to customers, Batchelor also recommends keeping an updated blog that shows everyone new additions or bug fixes to products and services.
Offer More Than Products: Add Value and Engage Audiences
Going further than just collecting feedback. Add more value that goes beyond products and services and continue growing as a brand.
Who said you only need to be in contact when customers shop?
Creating a community, engaging audiences, and adding value beyond products can do wonders for brand recognition. And brand recognition definitely helps avoid losing loyal customers.
Tori Bell, General Manager of Automate My Outreach suggests adding a personal touch to customer communications whenever possible. As an example, she recommends setting up a dedicated, loyal customer Whatsapp group. She suggests using the group to check-in with customers, seeing how they are doing, and otherwise engaging with them.
“Ask if there are any specific products they need or will be needing soon,” she says. “That way, you can make sure you have stock available. Enquire as to which products they like, what you need to get more of, any changes they can suggest, and any products they would like you to stock. Ask them to be completely honest, explain that you value all feedback, good or bad. Customers in a Whatsapp group can also get ideas from other customers and see what other customers are ordering, which can increase sales.”
Express Authenticity Through Empathy
Authenicity is gold when it comes to any relationship. That includes relationships brands build with their customers. To avoid losing loyal customers, it’s important to stay authentic, regardless of the changes the brand undergoes or trends it decides to follow.
Michelle Clarke, CEO of Empowerment Empires says that authenticity and connection come from deep empathy for customers. She advocates understanding teh customers so deeply that it becomes possible to know what they are thinking before they can express it fully themselves. Such extreme personalization can come from extensive customer journey mapping and research into customer behavior.
“Customer loyalty is a given when you really understand and serve your clients from the heart. The world is full of fakeness, and your clients respond to being treated like an intelligent person with feelings. They know when they are being misled, sold to, or duped, and they do not appreciate it.”
~Michelle Clarke, CEO of Empowerment Empires.
Avoid Losing Loyal Customers by Knowing Your Customers
If you noticed anything that is common in the advice and examples above it is the necessity of deep understanding of the customers and their behaviors. Through examining data, seeking and using customer feedback, remedying sticky situations, adding non-product-related value and engaging with audiences, and being authentic, brands can avoid losing loyal customers. | <urn:uuid:79af2af0-8b72-47b7-a795-e0a352fc48cc> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://helpsquad.com/avoid-losing-loyal-customers/ | 2022-01-26T16:36:36Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320304959.80/warc/CC-MAIN-20220126162115-20220126192115-00678.warc.gz | en | 0.946141 | 1,731 |

The men of this generation read with amazement the attacks of the sixties on Darwin, attacks so full of acerbity, so reckless in their bandying of evil charges and in their ascription of anti-religious motives. The piety of the Old Testament Church is reflected with more clearness and variety in the Psalter than in any other book of the Old Testament.
It constitutes the response of the Church to the divine demands of prophecy, and, in a less degree, of law; or, rather, it expresses those emotions and aspirations of the universal heart which lie deeper.

A Malaysian man who sought to bring a taste of home to fellow Asians in Northern Italy is attracting locals as his main customers instead.
In 2017, Justin Yip set up a food truck in the city of Turin called Sate & Sake, which delights customers to his humble yet irresistible “satay.”
For those who may not know, satay is a Southeast Asian dish of skewered and grilled meat, which comes with various special sauces.
It is said to have originated in Indonesia, where it is known as “sate” and is considered to be the national dish.
Yip, who moved to Italy nine years ago, developed a satay recipe that aimed to attract Asian exchange students in Turin.
To his surprise, his food truck amassed a majority of Italian customers instead — which he now estimates at over 90%.
“I was hoping to win over some Italians, but I didn’t expect this many,” Yip, who holds a degree from the University of Gastronomic Sciences in Bra, told Atlas Obscura. “It’s the worst place in the world for non-Italian food.”
However, Yip’s business is far from an overnight success.
For starters, his food truck happens to be the antithesis of Italian food culture, which “isn’t exactly begging for alternative eating formats,” according to Atlas Obscura.
“They’re very arrogant about foreign food,” Malaysian-born customer Hasan Rosman told the outlet. “They’re used to simple ingredients, so when they try something more colorful and vivid, they worry they’ll have stomach problems.”
Yip must also abide by “unrealistic” food truck regulations, at least in the beginning, which required him to relocate every hour.
Setting up and packing up took him 15 minutes each, which meant that he had only 30 minutes to work from each location.
To make things worse, he is barred from operating within 200 meters (656 feet) of a school or 100 meters (328 feet) of a church.
He quickly realized, however, that authorities would leave him alone under a pedestrian bridge between two buildings — and that’s become his usual spot since.
While locals form the backbone of his patrons, Yip denies adjusting his recipe only to appeal to the Italian palate.
“I don’t char the satay on purpose to make it more palatable to Italians. Actually that’s real satay, Italians often think it’s burnt,” he told Mashable Southeast Asia.
However, Yip discovered that his satay goes well with beer — hence the birth of Sate & Sake. | <urn:uuid:fef77081-f7a4-4ebc-9ba4-ded8c7863c2c> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://nextshark.com/malaysian-satay-food-truck-italy/ | 2022-01-26T17:06:42Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320304959.80/warc/CC-MAIN-20220126162115-20220126192115-00678.warc.gz | en | 0.980222 | 584 |
Carole April September 15, 2021 worksheet
Schools use worksheet from printing to cursive writing of letters to writing of words. There are also online help to show the children how to exactly form a letter or word. After showing the students or children the way of writing, you can print the worksheets and give them practices on how to write exactly the right way. Children will be interested to do the activity because they had fun watching the software that you showed them.
The Worksheet Calculate event will run every time the Excel has to recalculate that specific worksheet. Basically if you have a formula and one of its variable changes and the solution to the formula changes then this event will run. This can be great if you want to ensure that every time a worksheet data changes are made that you update an external document. You can also set up the external document to update on schedule.
So, back to the original question – which free budgeting worksheet works the best? The answer, sadly, is none. That’s because they all basically only allow you to list your income and expenses, and that’s about it. Some of them also allow you to record your actual income and expenses. But none of the free budgeting worksheets we could find online allowed you to create a spending plan.
Whatever your motivation for looking for worksheets for preschool, there are a few points to consider before you decide which ones you want.
Many people think that showing a student once how to correct the mistake and having them practice that one problem is sufficient. WRONG! It will take having the student do hundreds of similar problems correctly with constant supervision to replace the incorrect method in the brain.
Now, as a former teacher I am not saying that one should never use math worksheets; however, I do believe that many teachers are using a very superficial method of instruction that relies too much on low-level math worksheets and hands-off instructional approaches. Worksheet lessons move from reading the directions aloud, to doing sample problems as a group, to completing the worksheet independently (or at home with parents), day in and day out.

The University of New Hampshire's Open Ocean Aquaculture Project operates offshore fish cages in the exposed ocean near the Isle of Shoals. A need exists for improved vertical control of their cages that would permit continuous depth control, communication with operators, and logging of data. This thesis investigates the feasibility and practicality of applying a computer controlled lifting system to an experimental fish cage.
The submersible fish cage investigated has a diameter of 15.54 meters, and in internal volume of approximately 1500 cubic meters. The cage is moved through the water column via an airlift located beneath the cage. Air is supplied from the surface. A series of valves controls the inlet and outlet of air. The project included investigation of lifting systems, design and selection of components, software design, and computer simulation. The computer control system was implemented on a physical scale model for verification of the system's operation. The analysis, simulation, and physical testing showed the system operated and can be applied to a full scale cage.

Seems we are at a crossroads here. I know just how far we have been pushed. I am seeing a side of my partner I don’t think I have seen before. She just seems to have completely disengaged from all this. I know it is a defense. I understand how difficult the pressure is. We are living in this constant state of stress. Endless. Day in and day out. I get anxious and frustrated. I am the one that freaks out. We know that. What I don’t know is what my partner does when we finally move past her ability to cope. Honestly it is kind of scary. I have watched over the past couple months. There are times when each of us are doing the opposite of what we should be doing. We both suck at budgeting. Obviously, for me I never had to, and it is a tough skill to learn quickly without screwing up here and there. We spent a lot of years together where it wasn’t a huge issue. Sure we would do something dumb and it would be tight at the end of the month, but the next month came along and some breathing room came with it. These days it always comes with the comment “well we can’t stop living”. Well yeah, but the fucking bills need to get paid. I just don’t know what to do at this point. The stress is clearly shifting the focus, and like today, important matters are overlooked. It goes so far beyond the budget, or lack thereof. I just want to find a way to climb out of this, but I do not want to fight or alienate her in the process. It should not be my place to set the rules. I really don’t want to push her. I seem to be able to give up a lot. Don’t care about eating out ever, or going to the movies, or concerts. That all left a while ago. I used to bury myself in the saltwater fish tanks, and all the corals. It was a brutally expensive habit to feed. But it didn’t matter back then. There wasn’t a reason to give it a second thought. I think back over all those years, and all those dollars and it just makes me twitch. So fucking stupid. But how could I have possibly known the financial rug would be pulled out from under us. I didn’t know. I wish I had thought about it, and stopped spending all that money. It is done. There is no going back. Unfortunately, I think we are both looking into this black hole. Both of us trying to cope in our own ways. I obsess about it. Endlessly. It chases me, every waking minute. I lose it only when I run, or workout. I don’t know how she gets away from it. I know she has an amazing ability to use denial. That is okay, least it is something. It isn’t helping right now. We need to find a way to work together. Each and every day moving forward needs to be planned. There isn’t a place for making like this isn’t happening. There cannot be mistakes like the insurance. It just cannot happen. The thought of further regimenting and accepting the fact that we need to learn to live on the bare minimum. This is what 2013 needs to be. I hate that, it wears you down. It’s not just the stress. It is the endless staring at dollars and cents. Eventually you reach a “fuck it” point, and buy something. In that moment it may bring some relief, but it always ends in worry. That quick on the heels, uh oh. What now. It is so easy to fall headlong into the trap. Looking at bills that there is no hope of paying just speeds up this awful cycle. I guess I’m just struggling to make sense of this life we are living. I don’t know that it is sustainable. It is rough. I understand that colors my outlook. I’m worn out. She’s worn out. Neither one of us is dealing with this all that well. What makes it even worse is we pay bills for these horses. We feed them, clothe them, shoe them. The numbers are staggering. It is incredibly difficult to realize how much we need to give up to make sure they are all fine. I know we agreed to this the day we chose this path. I didn’t know how it would feel to walk this road. I doubt she did either. When is it too much? I’m not sure. I would think when the sacrifice exceeds the rewards it is enough. Are we there? I am not sure. I do know we are both, in our own ways, exhibiting signs of complete burn out. She retains her love and affection for the horses, all of them. I know I cannot say the same. It is a tough realization. Hard to consider, especially since our goal is to love and care for these animals. Where did I lose my way? When did I get so fucking burnt out? I can’t seem to see the line. All the years just run together. No clear line. nada. Playing polo this weekend, I rode one of the club’s horses. Since everything is still in quarantine because of the virus, I can’t bring my horses there. I had never ridden this mare. I knew she was odd, and had some issues. This is the type of horse I usually love to ride. The more complicated the better. It was a mess. I was just done. There was no kindness, no understanding, nothing. I was so far from me. The me I know. There was a hard, uncaring person residing in my boots. Didn’t like her, neither did the horse. I am sorry for that. I’m sorry I have lost my way. I’m not sure I can find my way back. I really don’t know. | <urn:uuid:a95d94e9-30e7-4c0e-9d82-5b0db43afb37> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://thebipolarfarmer.com/2013/01/29/frugal-fatigue/ | 2022-01-26T17:23:41Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320304959.80/warc/CC-MAIN-20220126162115-20220126192115-00678.warc.gz | en | 0.981858 | 1,264 |
At least one of my friends is happy about the new nuts coming to the Whitehouse! I met this little guy on Capitol Hill a few days ago. He’s nervous but hopeful. That’s a difficult mood to conjure up for the rest of us lobbying in D.C. on behalf of action on climate change, but we’re trying with all of our hearts. I can tell you the mood is weird, in the halls of Congress, very weird. There’s a hushed, oppressive tone throughout, quieter than I’ve ever heard it, with occasional brief splashes of awkward enthusiasm from the victors. Basically, everyone’s in shock, no matter which side we’re on. You might say we’re all feeling a bit “Squirrelly”. | <urn:uuid:7ed830b0-0909-467a-bfed-6e666af76648> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://thegreenflash.org/2016/11/19/new-nuts-arriving-at-whitehouse/ | 2022-01-26T17:48:25Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320304959.80/warc/CC-MAIN-20220126162115-20220126192115-00678.warc.gz | en | 0.915344 | 173 |

Improve 1% Each Day
As psychologist Carl Jung puts it: “Until you make the unconscious conscious, it will direct your life and you will call it fate.“
What are your life goals? New year resolutions? Or even next week’s wishlists?
As we all know, those lists aren’t that useful until you execute actionable steps to get there. And habits are the best way to take us to long-term goals, but we often leave it to luck or procrastinate for the golden goose that falls from the sky.
Think like an athlete. Gold medalists improve daily with unnoticeable differences for years, they don’t suddenly get 500% than everyone at the age of 21. Your successes are the accumulated 1% every day, and you will certainly see results after you have done 6 months of consistent workout, or ongoing practice of a musical instrument, or refining the craftsmanship of your work.
Here’s a quick YouTube if you want to invest 8 minutes to improve yourself 🙂
You are What You Read
If you want to learn even more, I’ve finished this Audible audiobook and put together actions, and hacked my morning rituals. I’ve been waking up at 6 am, and before I start the day at work I have already done yoga for 45 minutes, Japanese study for 30 minutes, and another 20 minutes of workouts.
Habits are powerful. Once you learned how to hack your mind and body, and put actions in place, you will be able to level up automatically. | <urn:uuid:6b34f8b3-1008-40d2-a73e-d7cc1af33de4> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://thelevelupguide.com/2021/01/2%C2%A2-on-1-a-day/ | 2022-01-26T16:35:25Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320304959.80/warc/CC-MAIN-20220126162115-20220126192115-00678.warc.gz | en | 0.934271 | 325 |

The WBT family lost one of their own last week. Sharon Sanders, who was known for her philanthropy in Charlotte and abroad, leaves behind a legacy beyond her contributions to the community. A wife, mother and friend to many was also the founder of Kids First of the Carolinas which gave millions in donations to those in need in the Queen’s City over the past four decades.
Sanders lost her battle with cancer on Thursday. She was 65.
It was 27 years ago that John Hancock first met Sanders. And since then, the famed radio host took the mission of Kids First to WBT’s audience for an outstanding result year after year.
“Together, we and many others raised millions in dollars, toys, bikes, food, and more (Not to mention the volunteer hours and services provided) for kids and people who needed a helping hand,” Hancock wrote in a Facebook post. “Sharon Sanders was the foundation from which everything that was accomplished rose. Without Sharon, it would never have happened or continued year after year! Rest in peace, Sharon.”
“Founded by Sanders in 1985, Kids First of the Carolinas has provided basic essentials throughout the year along with Christmas gifts to over 35,000 children and families in need in the greater Charlotte area,” according to the foundation’s website.
Hancock joined WBT’s Bo Thompson Morning Show on Monday to reflect on Sharon’s life and contributions to the Charlotte community. Sanders has been a regular on the airwaves of WBT over the past 20 years. Her efforts will live on through those at Kids First and WBT’s Bikes for Kids for years to come .
Sanders was survived by her husband Brett, daughter Hailey, and son Hayden. She will be missed.

“Normal” is a subjective idea, based on my feelings, opinions, and surroundings.
For some, it is totally ordinary to drive a horse and buggy to get to the store, while others hop into their personal jet to go to the conference. Yet others pile the whole family on a motor scooter, but I am more of the Suburban full of kids variety.
On a farm you are considered a slacker if you don’t get up at the crack of dawn to go milk the cows, while many would think that hauling out of bed at 7 AM to buy milk for breakfast is bad enough. I have a farmer friend who supplies us with raw milk that I haul home, 5 gallons at a time.
Those who attend Mennonite churches are quite used to the idea of a church service ordered by invisible cues of cultural norm, while Lutherans carefully follow their liturgy and Quakers, I am told, have no set order in their service.
Some people decide to vaccinate their children while others insist that they will not allow any of those poisons to be injected into their babies. Personally, I think the worst best thing is slugging it out on the internet. 😉
In Europe, mothers think babies need lots of fresh air to stay healthy so they give them daily jaunts in the stroller, even in the grip of winter. Many women I know keep their little babies inside and out of drafts as much as possible.
So. Big deal. People live different lives.
Yes, it is a big deal. Many of our norms are completely harmless, neither here nor there. And yet.
The construction worker who doesn’t curse on the job in likely the odd man out on the crew. There are lots of people who cannot say a sentence without polluting it with obscenities.
Teens today have been conditioned to think it is their right to have an eye-rolling, mouthing-off rebellion to any authority. The respectful, considerate young adult stands out as refreshingly odd. Ever hear of the Rebelution?
In colleges, it is much more normal to sleep with a series of partners than it is to stay sexually abstinent until marriage. That is despite the fact that studies have shown greater happiness in the marriages of those who did abstain.
Some parents decide that yelling and meanness in their home is an acceptable way to live and let live. Many don’t talk to each other at all. Others do not stoop to arguing with their spouse nor do they allow their children to act ugly to their siblings.
You see, you get to choose your normal. If you think at all, you know where you draw the lines. Your beliefs lead the way to where you settle in and feel comfortable.

England and Czech Republic will meet in their final group game on Tuesday with both sides having already sealed progress a day before their match.
England will have to make do without Mason Mount and Ben Chilwell for their final Euro 2020 Group D match and potentially their last-16 tie after the pair were deemed close contacts of Scotland’s Billy Gilmour, who has tested positive for coronavirus.
Both players are teammates of Gilmour’s at Premier League club Chelsea and were pictured embracing him at the end of Friday’s 0-0 draw at Wembley.
“Chilwell and Mount will isolate and train individually in private areas at England’s training base St. George’s Park, with the rest of the squad returning there after tonight’s fixture against Czech Republic at Wembley,” England said in a statement.
England are behind the group-leading Czechs on goal difference and must win to ensure they finish in first place.
Meanwhile, Scotland or Croatia can join the two sides in the last-16 with a victory.
Both sides have a point each after their opening two matches and will play each other at Hampden Park in Glasgow.
“Gilmour played really well against England but up to that game he was never a first-choice option and he may not have even started against us,” coach Zlatko Dalic told a news conference on Monday.
Group D steps into the spotlight 🤩 Who'll win today?
— UEFA EURO 2020 (@EURO2020) June 22, 2021
“I don’t see his absence as our advantage because whoever replaces him will be a more experienced player. Having said that, I wish Gilmour a speedy recovery.”
Croatia, the 2018 World Cup runners-up, were well below par in their 1-0 defeat by England followed by a 1-1 draw with the Czechs and Dalic conceded they faced a tough challenge.
Winger Ivan Perisic, one of the few regulars assured of starting against the Scots after drilling in a superb equaliser against the Czechs, was confident.
“We haven’t looked the part in the opening two games but we have to forget that now so we can come together and once again produce our best football under intense pressure,” he said. | <urn:uuid:20c5b00e-c934-4bb6-9895-9cd3fd49c133> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://www.aljazeera.com/sports/2021/6/22/euro-2020-whats-at-stake-in-tonights-group-d-fixtures | 2022-01-26T17:29:54Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320304959.80/warc/CC-MAIN-20220126162115-20220126192115-00678.warc.gz | en | 0.972042 | 490 |
FORT MCCOY, Wis. - The staccato pop of gunfire could barely be heard over the blowing rain as Soldiers fired off rounds from their M4 assault rifles. Targets popped up and visibly wobbled in the howling winds before being knocked down by 5.56 mm rounds. Cold, wet and tired, Soldiers became frustrated and strained to focus before dropping more targets.
The 2014 412th and 416th Theater Engineer Commands' Combined Best Warrior Competition kicked off in near-freezing weather conditions adding an extra challenge for the Army Reserve Soldiers participating in the event from April 27 to May 1. The 27 Soldiers and noncommissioned officers put their competitive spirit to the test for just four spots - one junior enlisted and one NCO from each TEC - to represent the engineers at the U.S. Army Reserve Command's Best Warrior Competition scheduled for June.
Along with the M4 weapons qualification, competitors participated in a variety of tasks including an Army Physical Fitness Test, a timed road march with loaded ruck sack, Army combatives, written essays and exams, a variety of Army Warrior Tasks, multiple mystery events and the dreaded sergeants major board.
Army Reserve Lt. Col. Reginald Truss, 479th Engineer Battalion commander and officer in charge of the 2014 BWC, said he believes that combining the competition for both TECs has been a wise decision.
"We have to understand each TEC's mission anyway, and we should be able to 'plug and play' any of the 416th and the 412th's units into any of the missions that each TEC covers," Truss said. "So using the BWC to combine the two TECs is a great exercise to introduce the TECs to each other, to make us work together and to know each other's capabilities."
"This is a great that it's combined because it's an economy of effort," Truss continued. "We use 'X' amount of Soldiers to support the Best Warrior Competition as the 412th to run the operation. The 416th would do the same thing. It would be redundant operations. Economy of effort, economy of funds to do one exercise is the way to go."
The combined effort also meant more Soldiers competing with each other at the same time, all of them vying for the top spots to advance to the next level.
"What I've seen so far is that the Soldiers have an extremely competitive spirit," said Army Reserve Command Sgt. Maj. Rick Virgil, 420th Engineer Brigade command sergeant major. "The points show the end result. The fact that the points are so very close just tells me that the caliber of Soldiers between the two theater engineer commands is quite close."
Army Reserve Maj. Jesus Cruz, 479th Engineer Battalion executive officer and additional duty safety officer for the 2014 BWC, has made an effort to participate in almost every event that the Soldiers are being put through. Cruz said he believes the event to be a great opportunity for Soldiers.
"I think this event is critical. I think it validates all the work they put into it," Cruz said. "I think it motivates Soldiers to strive to be the best at what they do."
"This morning, during the ruck march, I was with three Soldiers, and I could see each of them not wanting the other guy to beat them, each of them just exhausted, but none of them quit and all three crossed the finish line at the same time," Cruz said. "Just to see that sacrifice and the opportunity for the Soldiers to share, I'm very happy to be a part of it."
Cruz said he truly appreciates all of the effort put into the competition by each individual participating.
"I hope we validated all the sacrifice they put forth, all the sacrifice they made before they got here. Most of these competitors are true reservists - they have a family, they have school and they have work," Cruz said. "They have to take time from that schedule to prepare for this competition. I hope at the end of the day, all that sacrifice was worth it. I hope they were challenged physically and mentally and they're able to go home and know that all the hard work was worth it."
And hard work it was. Most Army Reservists don't have the luxury of using their full-time jobs to train for the competition. Many are in school or have a job separate from the Reserves so they have to dip into their personal time - time that could normally be spent with girlfriends, boyfriends, friends or family. But the competitive spirit motivates them to put time into such challenges.
"Personally, I love this stuff: ruck marches and shooting," Army Reserve Spc. Doty said. "I've never shot a pistol before so that was absolutely fantastic. I'm really good at it, apparently."
"Ruck marches, land navigation, those are things that I do for fun so this was just a great chance to do everything I love," Doty said. "Even if I don't win I had a blast here.
"It was tough - the rain, the blisters and everything - but I had a lot of fun with it," Doty said.
Doty also had a great deal of respect for the competition and his fellow Soldiers. "It's a huge honor. I'm extremely honored to have that gift, that I'm competitive enough to do these kinds of things," Doty said. "These are all really top-of-their-class Soldiers. The NCOs here are the best in their units and the Soldiers are way above their years. It's really great to put yourself against those people. It's a great way to motivate yourself to be better by being around people like this."
That kind of challenge has the added side effect of increased camaraderie.
"This competition was tough for everyone," Doty said. "I could see people getting up this morning with moans and groans and putting their heads back down. When you go through that kind of misery with someone - it's like, 'Only you and me know what that kind of pain is like.'"
Many of the competitors felt the same way.
"Yeah, it's been good, it's been tough," said Benjamin Mercer of Springfield, Mo., an Army Reserve sergeant with the 688th Engineer Company out of Harrison, Ark.
"The land nav was especially tough. To finally be done, it felt good," Mercer said.
While he enjoyed almost all of the events for different reasons, a few stood out more than others.
"I love all the shooting events," Mercer said.
He shot expert on the M4 range, shot a 30 out of 30 on the pistol and scored high on the night qualification as well.
Concluding the event was the often-feared sergeants major board, in which the competitors are required to conduct facing movements, answer a series of questions about everything from Army standards and regulations to current events, and sing the Army song.
Did Mercer have any nerves about the notoriously stressful intellectual challenge?
"No, not nervous. Just haven't had time to study, no time to prepare for it," Mercer said.
Competing Soldiers were not left alone to participate in the grueling weeklong challenge. Their sponsors - other Soldiers and NCOs who have knowledge from participation in previous competitions - are brought with to coach, motivate and keep a fire lit in their hearts.
"They do have their sponsors here to assist them through the competition and make sure that they're prepared and kept on track," Virgil said.
And being a sponsor has challenges unto itself.
"It's still tough," said Sgt. 1st Class Ryan Franklin of Little Rock, Ark., who drills with Mercer at the 688th. "You know where you're supposed to be, what you're supposed to do, but some of the events you just don't get to have any interaction with the guys.
"Overall, in the week or two leading up to it, I just made sure his orders were squared away, his uniform was squared away," Franklin said. "Just trying to take care of the detail stuff so all he has to worry about is the competition."
Cruz said he thinks the Soldiers that choose to compete are aware that winning the top spots isn't the only prize to be gained.
"I think this event is critical. I think it validates all the work they put into it," Cruz added. "I think it motivates Soldiers to strive to be the best at what they do."
Cruz had high praise for the Reservists.
"I am absolutely impressed with all of the competitors. I tried to participate in all of these events and keeping up with these Soldiers was very challenging," Cruz said. "I believe the highest compliment I can pay a Soldier is to say I would go to war with them.

I grew up with classical music – some pieces bring me right back to that living room where my family spent many a Sunday afternoon. After dinner, we all congregated in the living room with books, puzzles, the Sunday paper, or maybe a needlework project. Dad would put on a stack of 33s and we would spend the next few hours contentedly. Little did I realize at the time how much the music we listened to would fill my adult life. I always have music around me – from stereo or computer or in the car; sometimes even coming from my phone!
I love, and live to, music – and support the radio station that brings it to me. | <urn:uuid:d9b3de91-dbf6-4eef-8544-3736d8531c23> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://www.capradio.org/music/classical/2016/12/31/jo-culbersons-classical-moment/ | 2022-01-26T17:54:13Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320304959.80/warc/CC-MAIN-20220126162115-20220126192115-00678.warc.gz | en | 0.979051 | 137 |
3 Eye Centers in South Central Ohio to Serve You Better
With offices in Chillicothe, Greenfield and Waverly, Chester Eye Center serves South Central Ohio with the latest technology in eye care. Our eye care offices use cutting-edge digital imaging technology to assess your eyes. Many eye diseases, if detected at an early stage, can be treated successfully without total loss of vision. Digital imaging and other specialized testing can be very important in assisting your Chillicothe optometrist to detect and measure any subtle changes in the health of your eyes. Many eye conditions, such as glaucoma, diabetic retinopathy and macular degeneration are diagnosed by detecting changes over time.
Cirrus Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT)
Cirrus HD-OCT enables your optometrist to perform multiple analyses for glaucoma.
The three most common tests are:
- Retinal Nerve Fibre Layer (RNFL) Analysis reveals the thickness of the layer of the retina that contains nerve fibres that travel up the optic nerve. If glaucoma is present, that layer may gradually lose thickness.
- Macular Thickness Analysis examines the condition and thickness of the macula, which is the part of the retina that provides central vision. Thinning of the macula is a possible sign of glaucoma progression.
- Optic Nerve Head Analysis reveals the structure of the optic nerve where it originates in the retina. With glaucoma, the “cup” in the optic nerve may enlarge.
Humphrey Visual Field Testing
A visual field test measures the range of your peripheral or “side” vision to assess whether you have any blind spots (scotomas), peripheral vision loss or visual field abnormalities. It is a straightforward and painless test that does not involve eye drops but does involve the patient’s ability to understand and follow instructions.
An initial visual field screening can be carried out by the optometrist by asking you to keep your gaze fixed on a central object, covering one eye and having you describe what you see at the periphery of your field of view. For a more comprehensive assessment, special equipment might be used to test your visual field. In one such test, you place your chin on a chin rest and look ahead. Lights are flashed on, and you have to press a button whenever you see the light. The lights are bright or dim at different stages of the test. Some of the flashes are purely to check you are concentrating. Each eye is tested separately and the entire test takes 15-45 minutes. These machines can create a computerized map out your visual field to identify if and where you have any deficiencies.
GDX VCC for Glaucoma Testing
Our GDx-Vcc is a diagnostic instrument we use to examine the thickness of your retinal nerve fiber layer, using scanning laser polarimetry. These measurements are extremely useful in the early detection of glaucoma, and can often detect signs of glaucoma before any vision loss occurs. Your examination with a GDx-Vcc begins with the technician entering select information about you and your eyes. The instrument is then used to examine one eye at a time. The nerve fiber layer scan is completely painless and should only take you approximately 5 seconds per eye.
Digital Fundas Camera
This equipment takes a picture of the retina,often without dilation drops. It can also be used as a wide-angled anterior segment camera to take pictures of eye lids, lashes, subconjunctival hemorrhages, etc. We use it for routine eye exams, diabetes, Hypertension glaucoma, retinopathy (retinal disease) and high risk patients.
Tear osmolarity has been shown to have the best predictive value for diagnosing Dry Eye Disease of any single test. TearLab’s sophisticated lab on a chip technology tests a tiny tear sample to measure Osmolarity, or the salt content in the tears. The Doctor will test both eyes, and will take the highest number of the two tests, to generate Your Osmolarity Number. Your Osmolarity Number gives doctors a meaningful measure of the health and stability of the protective tear film that covers the surface of your eyes. The number generated correlates with the severity of the disease.
Equipped with the TearLab Osomolarity System, our optometrists can now use quantitative data at the point of care to aid in the diagnosis of DED and to improve our ability to manage these patients.
Diopsys® NOVA-ERG Vision Testing System
This is an office-based pattern electroretinography (ERG) module that can help Brazosport’s doctors obtain objective, functional information about inner retinal cell performance, especially in the macula. We use the information gathered from testing to aid in the diagnosis and care of diseases that affect the retina according to specific topographic patterns. These include AMD, diabetic macular edema and toxic maculopathy. These diseases usually demonstrate an expected pattern of macular deterioration that affects the central or paracentral area of the macula. The NOVA-ERG’s data helps us detect the cellular dysfunction that precedes obvious structural defects. The system contributes to earlier detection for specific, timely management of diseases that impair macular and ganglion cells.
ColorDx: A detailed color vision evaluation that determines if there is loss of color perception as a result of optic nerve head disease, diabetic eye disease or other neurological eye disease. Tritan deficiencies (blue color vision defects) are rarely genetic, yet as high as 15% of the general population may have a tritan deficiency. This is an important but often overlooked sign that may be caused by retinal, optic nerve, or neurological disorders, in addition to trauma, cataracts, and hundreds of common drugs and substances.
B-Scan Ophthalmic Ultrasound
B-scan ultrasonography is an important adjuvant for the clinical assessment of various ocular and orbital diseases.
The ultrasound uses high-frequency sound waves that travel through the eye. Reflections (echoes) of the sound waves form a picture of the structure of the eye.
Your eye is numbed anesthetic eye drops. The ultrasound probe is placed against the front surface of the eye. The test takes about 15 minutes. You will be seated and you may be asked to look in many directions. The test is usually done with your eyes closed. A gel is placed on the skin of your eyelids. The B-scan probe is gently placed against your eyelids to do the test.
B-scan is done to look at the inside part of the eye or the space behind the eye that can’t be seen directly. This may occur when you have cataracts or other conditions that make it hard for the doctor to see into the back of your eye. The test may help diagnose retinal detachment, tumors, or other disorders. | <urn:uuid:a4f8490f-f18d-43e0-88c3-b5e40fa983e2> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://www.chestereyecenter.com/eye-care-services/advanced-technology/ | 2022-01-26T16:46:19Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320304959.80/warc/CC-MAIN-20220126162115-20220126192115-00678.warc.gz | en | 0.897984 | 1,456 |
Two Clarkson University undergraduates from the laboratory of Associate Professor of Chemistry & Biomolecular Science and Kodak CAMP Distinguished Professor Mario Wriedt have been awarded Research Internships in Science and Engineering (RISE) by the German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD).
Tony Koppers '22 of Cazenovia, N.Y., an honors student majoring in chemical engineering, and Michael Sehn '23 of Chenango Forks, N.Y., a chemical engineering major, will travel to Germany this summer for the three-month internships.
"These are two very competitive fellowships to conduct research at top-tier universities," said Wriedt. "Tony and Michael have conducted research in my lab for two years now. Both are high-shooting with lots on their plates, yet they still manage to be involved in cutting-edge research."
At the University of Applied Sciences, Lübeck, Koppers will utilize chemical vapor deposition techniques for the advancement of MOF (metal-organic framework) materials for energy applications.
At Kiel University, Sehn will work on the discovery of new MOF materials for energy applications using high-throughput synthesis tools.
Wriedt, who assisted the students in finding research collaborators in Germany, says that the two will still be able to work together while away. "As the two universities are only 30 miles apart, Tony & Michael will be able to collaborate informally," he says.
This fall, Sehn will start his master of science degree in chemical engineering even as he continues to finish his bachelor's degree.
Funded by the German Federal Foreign Office, RISE Germany offers undergraduate students from North American, British and Irish universities the opportunity to complete a summer research internship at top German universities and research institutions.
Students are matched with a host university or institute according to their area of interest (biology, chemistry, physics, earth sciences, engineering, or a closely related field) and provided with a monthly stipend for three months to help cover living expenses. Host universities, universities of applied sciences and institutes provide housing assistance and match students with Ph.D. student mentors or researchers

FRISCO, Texas – If Travis Frederick's recovery from Guillain-Barre syndrome continues on its current track, the Cowboys anticipate the four-time Pro Bowl center being ready to participate in the start of voluntary offseason program this spring, head coach Jason Garrett said Monday.
"I think it's very positive," Garrett said of Frederick's long-term outlook after he missed the entire 2018 season due to the auto-immune illness that affects the nervous system.
"He's gotten stronger and stronger. He's worked very hard in the weight room to get himself back and we do anticipate him, if things continue the way they do, to be involved in our offseason program right from the get-go. Some of the things that were concerning to him have kind of gone away.
"I think he's regaining his strength. I think he's getting his conditioning is back. He's worked very hard at it, and all the reports are very, very positive."
Frederick was diagnosed with GBS in late August after dealing with stinger-like symptoms during training camp. He spent the season working with the Cowboys' medical and athletic training staff.
Joe Looney filled in as the starting center for all 18 games, including playoffs. But Garrett praised Frederick, who hadn't missed a start in his first five NFL seasons, for showing leadership and support to his teammates throughout the year.
"Travis was off the charts this year," Garrett said. "Think about what he went through and how challenging a situation that was. It wasn't a typical football injury, so that can take you aback a little bit, but he handled that really well.
"For him to immerse himself into our football team the way that he did, that's such a positive impact on us. He was at every meeting, every walkthrough, every practice every single day. And he got his rehab and he got all the other stuff he needed to get done really on his own time.
"He had such a positive impact on the new guys that were playing – Connor Williams, Joe Looney, some of the other guys who had to play for us. He was such a stabilizing factor. And then we made that coaching change (on the offensive line) I think he helped Marc (Colombo) immensely. So his leadership and his dedication and his selflessness for our football team, I can't overstate it."
Frederick recently underwent clean-up shoulder surgery – a procedure totally separate from his GBS recovery – which seemed to further indicate that he's building his way back toward a return. | <urn:uuid:2b8906ce-dd5b-4206-b4e6-7ab30500fc74> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://www.dallascowboys.com/news/very-positive-outlook-for-travis-frederick | 2022-01-26T16:46:17Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320304959.80/warc/CC-MAIN-20220126162115-20220126192115-00678.warc.gz | en | 0.992415 | 531 |

In our article Top Windiest and Stormiest Cities and Towns in Michigan, you would have read that we have 30 days of thunderstorm activity annually. The top wind level was at Forest Dunes on June 26, 2020, with 87-mph winds causing $1,000,000 in property damage.
It’s clear that windstorms warrant our full attention to protect our homes and our families. Preparation is an essential part of that protection.
We’ve developed three checklists to help you: windstorm preparation, steps to take during a windstorm, and after a windstorm. Plus, we’ve provided a list to guide your efforts in preparing an emergency supply kit.
Sound home maintenance practices are always helpful in preparing for windstorms along with any other weather events. Here are our recommendations covering critical regular maintenance items as well as vital actions to take immediately before a storm.
- Trim your trees on a regular schedule. Keep your trees trimmed, removing dead branches as well as dead and dying trees. Windstorms can uproot trees and propel branches into and onto your home.
- Keep your roof in good shape. The wind will whip across your roof picking out any loose shingles, ripping them off, and exposing the wood to rain. Keeping up with maintenance and replacing the roof when needed is sound practice.
- Keep backup fuel on hand for grill and power tools. A functioning grill can become very useful in preparing a hot meal should power be lost. Likewise, a chainsaw can be very helpful in removing downed trees and branches. But you’ll need fuel to power them.
- Consider adding an emergency generator. Loss of electrical power can be quite challenging, particularly if you have no idea when it might return. A small gasoline or propane-fueled generator can provide sufficient power to keep refrigerators, computers, and cell phones running. Also consider investing in a whole-home generator, as well as a battery backup sump pump.
- Protect your home when power is out. Be ready to turn off the power to your home at the circuit breaker or fuse box. Power surges when electricity is being restored can cause damage. Never connect your emergency generator to your home’s electrical system.
- Create a home emergency plan. Document and share with your family what to do if you’re caught away from home when a storm hits. Also, review any work and school emergency plans so you know what to expect. You can integrate those plans with your own.
- Secure outdoor items. Anything that’s outdoors is a candidate to be picked up by the wind and slammed into your home. Before the storm arrives, secure lawn furniture, picnic tables, patio umbrellas, and anything else that could become airborne.
- Park your vehicles in the garage. Hopefully, the wind will not be strong enough to blow your car around, but it can do significant damage with debris. Park them in the garage to protect them. Also, make sure you know how to manually open the garage doors should power be lost.
- Keep up to date on the storm’s progress. Use a battery-powered radio or a cell phone weather app to keep up with the news. The app can also provide alerts and storm warnings to help you emerge from a deep sleep in time to take emergency action.
- Create a family emergency shelter. You don’t have to create a dedicated storm cellar. But designating an area in your home can prove very helpful. Select a first-floor interior room away from windows or an area in your basement. Stock it with an emergency supply kit.
Create an Emergency Supply Kit
An emergency shelter will prove extremely valuable during any storms. The next thing is to take the time to pull together an emergency supply kit. This will also go a long way toward helping you feel far more secure once you head to your shelter.
Here are our recommendations on what to put in your kit.
- Three days’ supply of food for the family and any pets
- First aid kit
- Bottled water
- Battery-powered radio
- Candles and matches or lighter
- Flashlight and lots of batteries
- Battery-powered cell phone charger
- Sleeping bags and pillows
- Medications and prescription drugs
- Multi-purpose tool
- Extra cash
Have a similar kit ready to go on the road in case you need to evacuate your home. You may also need to add clothing and personal hygiene items.
Steps to Take During a Windstorm
The steps you take now to prepare for a windstorm will help keep you and your family safe. Here are the keys to riding out the storm in safety.
- Go to your emergency shelter. Gather your family along with your emergency kit and go to your home’s emergency shelter area. If some family members are out as the storm arrives, try to contact them to ensure they are taking the correct actions to find safety wherever they find themselves.
- On the road? Seek shelter at once. Find a safe place to park your car. It needs to be out of immediate danger. Do not drive during the storm. Underground parking garages are superb in these situations.
- Keep a close eye on the developing storm. Wherever you happen to be sheltering, monitor the radio or weather app to keep up with the storm’s progress. Only leave your shelter when you are absolutely sure the storm has passed.
Steps to Take After a Windstorm
There can still be considerable danger to you and your family even after the storm has passed. Here are the key items to watch.
- Conduct a family check-in. If some members of your family weren’t able to make it home, conduct a check-in via cell phone. Make sure everyone is accounted for and safe.
- Watch for natural gas leaks. Gas leaks can be very dangerous. If you smell gas, leave the area immediately and notify the gas company.
- Avoid downed power lines. Electricity can kill. Don’t go near downed power lines. Report them at once to your utility company.
- Secure your food supply. Food in your emergency shelter should be ok. But make sure your refrigerators are secure and keep the doors closed. Even without power, they can keep food frozen for up to two days.
- Start your emergency generator. Now’s the time to start that emergency generator. Use it to power your refrigerator, freezers, computers, and charge your cell phone.
- Document the damage to your home. Review the roof, siding, windows, along with anything outside. Take photos of the damage and start a logbook to record the details that you find.
- Notify your insurance company. If you discover damage, get in contact with your insurance company to begin the claims process.
Windstorms in Our Hometowns
In our article on Windiest Cities in Michigan, we dug into the storm winds for the locations where we have offices.
In Grand Rapids and Kent County, the storm on June 10, 2020, saw winds of 65 mph with $100,000 in property damage, as well as downed trees and power lines. Detroit and Wayne County saw winds of 55 mph during a thunderstorm on June 26, 2020. That brought down the usual trees and power lines. Traverse City’s thunderstorm on June 10, 2020, brought high winds up to 54 mph with trees down and flooding. Toledo experienced 64-mph winds at the airport on Feb. 24, 2019, along with downed trees and power lines.
You can tell that high winds can cause serious damage.
We’re hopeful that high winds won’t damage your home’s foundation. Even so, rainwater driven by wind can find its way into your basement or crawl space if there are any cracks or if the water accumulates around your home.
We recommend that you consult the professionals at FSM for a free inspection and repair estimate to identify any issues with your foundation, basement, or crawl space that need attention in preparation for windstorms. | <urn:uuid:dc57f8c2-6828-4a38-93eb-5c6bcfb59292> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://www.drymich.com/resources/how-to-prepare-for-summer-windstorms-in-michigan/ | 2022-01-26T17:14:29Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320304959.80/warc/CC-MAIN-20220126162115-20220126192115-00678.warc.gz | en | 0.932004 | 1,677 |

Matthew T. Mangino: Civil rights versus stopping a deadly virus
The latest news about the coronavirus is sobering. Health officials in China's Hubei province reported 14,840 new cases of coronavirus, most of them in Wuhan, the capital.
Province officials also said another 242 people had died, taking the total number of deaths in mainland China to 1,873 as of Feb. 18. These increases raise concerns about the true scale of the epidemic in China.
Coronavirus represents a group of viruses that can cause a range of symptoms including a runny nose, cough, sore throat and fever. Some are mild, such as the common cold, while others are more likely to lead to pneumonia.
The World Health Organization declared the outbreak a global public health emergency and the U.S. Secretary of Health and Human Services issued a similar warning for the U.S.
What are traditional public health measures available in the U.S. with the threat of a deadly outbreak? Isolation and quarantine are the methods by which public health officials stop the spread of disease.
According to the Department of Health and Humans Services, the president by executive order provides for the use of federal isolation and quarantine for communicable diseases, including cholera, diphtheria, tuberculosis, smallpox, yellow fever and Ebola among other potential pandemic diseases.
Isolation is used to separate ill people who have a communicable disease from those who are healthy. Quarantine is used to separate and restrict the movement of people who are well but may have been exposed to a communicable disease. This is ongoing with several cruise ships in Asia and other parts of the world.
Isolation and quarantine can have a significant impact on fundamental individual rights. The U.S. Constitution prohibits the federal government, as well as state governments, from depriving individuals of protected liberty rights.
Isolation and quarantine restrict the movement of people to help stop the spread of diseases. This means that an individual can be detained against his or her will for an extended period of time.
Quarantine and isolation are not new public health remedies. As far back as 1902 the U.S. Supreme Court recognized isolation and quarantine as legitimate public health techniques. Although, most patients normally have a right to refuse medical treatment, that right disappears when an infected or exposed person poses a significant risk to public health.
In addition to being medical functions, isolation and quarantine are also “police power” functions, derived from the right of the government to take action affecting individuals for the benefit of society. The authority for carrying out these functions has been delegated to the CDC. Pursuant to federal regulations, the CDC is authorized to detain, medically examine, and release persons arriving into the United States and traveling between states who are suspected of carrying communicable diseases.
States also have police power functions to protect the health, safety and welfare of persons within their borders. All 50 states have laws to enforce the use of isolation and quarantine.
For instance, in Pennsylvania, the Disease Prevention and Control Law provides that the state or local health departments may, without court intervention, order an individual quarantined or isolated if the individual poses a significant threat to the health of the public and there are no lesser restrictive means.
In Arizona, the governor, along with the state director of the Department of Health Services, have expansive authority in a state of emergency involving infectious disease. However, there must be an urgent threat to public health to establish a quarantine or isolation without an order of court.
In fact, in many states the governor has the authority to order a “cordon sanitaire," which is the quarantining of an entire town or city. Such authority has far-reaching implications for those not yet infected. They are being forcefully detained in an area where infected persons remain.
The government attempts to balance the good of the community with individual liberty. In times of international crisis, there is a heightened need to zealously protect those individual rights.

Stanley Aughtry is an electrical engineer by day and a superhero by, well, whenever the camera is ready. And he hopes others will follow his lead in making the “starving actor” mindset a thing of the past.
Aughtry, a manager of HPH and fuel utilization at Norfolk Southern Corp. (NYSE: NSC) in Atlanta, is a part-time actor and model with a burgeoning IMDB profile. That includes his first blockbuster appearances as a featured extra in “The Dark Knight” and “The Dark Knight Rises,” plus as a body-double in Tyler Perry‘s “Boo! A Madea Halloween.” He landed his first feature speaking role for a major film as Shombay, a merchant tribe warrior in Atlanta-filmed “Black Panther.”
Aughtry recently spoke with Atlanta Business Chronicle about balancing his day job with his burgeoning acting career — a skilled he dubs as being an “actorpreneur.” | <urn:uuid:a044ea98-6e97-42bc-9890-4ba785680d64> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://www.georgiaentertainmentnews.com/2018/09/black-panther-actor-atlanta-rife-with-actorpreneur-opportunities/ | 2022-01-26T17:49:47Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320304959.80/warc/CC-MAIN-20220126162115-20220126192115-00678.warc.gz | en | 0.973381 | 213 |

Because of being the key component of dye-sensitized solar cells and acting as an important role, dye sensitizer and its synthesis and application has been extensively researched. In this paper, four novel polymeric metal complexes with D–𝜋–A structure that use 4-(octyloxymethyl)-N, N-diphenylbenzenamine as donor group (D), C=N bondasa 𝜋-conjugation linkage (𝜋), and transition metal complexes as an acceptor (A), were functionally designed and synthesized. All the four polymeric metal complexes exhibited some photovoltaic performance, the highest photoelectric conversion efficiency of compound P4 reached 1.09% (𝐽sc = 2.55 mA cm−2, 𝑉oc = 0.61 V and FF = 70.14%) under simulate AM 1.5 G solar irradiation. A new path for the synthesis and study of the dye sensitizer was provided.

Irish winger Paddy McCourt has finally shown the Celtic fans what he can do with two breathtaking goals inside a week.
McCourt made the most of his first team chance with a wonder goal against Falkirk in the Scottish League club in midweek, then repeated the feat in the Premier League win over St. Mirren on Saturday after beating five players on a mazy run.
Manager Tony Mowbray was none too pleased with Celtic’s performance in the league game and has demanded an improvement in Europe this week.
Former Derry and Shamrock Rovers star McCourt is now in the running to start in Thursday night’s Europa League clash with Rapid Vienna.
And he too knows an improvement is needed on the St. Mirren display that pushed Celtic four points clear of Rangers at the top of the table.
“To be fair, the players know themselves,” said McCourt in response to Mowbray’s criticism.
“You know when you come off if you have performed individually and as a team and if we are going to be honest, I don’t think any of us could say we were really great.
“The manager is an honest fellow and he has told me that he wants me to play every week but said that there are some things that I have to add to my game.
“He is the first to praise us when we are doing well and when we are not really at our best, he won’t be long in telling us.”
As for his latest golden goal, Northern Ireland winger McCourt added, “It was nice to get the goal but it was important that we got the three points.
“When you get the ball you see how things open up and luckily enough I don’t have to really think about it, it comes naturally and I was delighted that it ended up in the back of the net.
“I will be ready for Rapid. If I do get the chance it will be up to myself to perform again, but we will never know until I’m asked. But if I’m picked I will be doing my level best and hopefully it will be good enough.”
McCourt’s former Derry City boss Stephen Kenny believes the winger will become a big hit at Parkhead after finally getting his first team chance.
Kenny said, “It doesn’t surprise me that he beat five or six players to score last week. That’s nothing new with Paddy. He will make that sort of run at least once in every game – and how many players can you say that about?
“He’s a real throwback to yesteryear football when skill and natural talent were chosen over athleticism and stamina. He’s incredibly talented, and if he can overcome the back problems that set him back last season he can become a fan favorite at Celtic.”
Meanwhile, Celtic’s Polish goalkeeper Artur Boruc has revealed he is happy to consider a new long term deal at Parkhead even though he has two years to run on his current contract.
Boruc said, “It is a great club to play for. Everybody knows how passionate the supporters and players are to win the league, so it is really good to be here. I am still really enjoying it.
“I am not thinking about changing clubs. I am quite focused on Celtic just now. If they were to come up with a new contract, I would think about that.”

Partnership will develop youth in Kāpiti
The Lions Club of Waikanae and youth education provider Zeal have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) which will see the two organisations work together, with the Council, to develop young people in the district.
The MoU outlines how a $100,000 donation from the Waikanae Lions over five years will be spent on the new youth development centre. The first $20,000 will go towards fitting out the centre early next year, with the rest of the donation ear-marked to help fund creative workshops for young people.
“This is an outstanding gesture from the Lions and we are looking forward to working with them and Zeal to support and develop our young people,” Mayor Ross Church says.
Lions Club of Waikanae President, Terry Burch, says he is delighted to be able to help young people in the community.
“We believe the centre will help develop youth as the future leaders of our community and it will be great to be part of that.”
Zeal CEO Brook Turner says the signing of the five-year agreement will ensure the youth development centre gets the wider support of the Kāpiti community and gives Lions’ club members an opportunity to invest in the district’s young people for the long term.
“We are humbled by the monetary contribution from Lions, but equally excited at the prospect of tapping into the wisdom and expertise of the club for the foreseeable future. This is what community development is meant to look like.”
The Council is contributing $735,000 towards the operation of the centre in the first three years and a one-off capital contribution of $250,000 to the fit out and adaptation of the building which is located next to the Paraparaumu Pak ‘n Save supermarket. This work is set to begin in late 2016 or early 2017.
The youth development centre is one of the priority projects identified in the long term plan 2015-35

New York, Chicago, and Las Vegas are the top North American markets that meeting planners intend to use in the next two years, according to STR‘s 2019 DestinationMAP, a comprehensive study of meeting planners and the meetings market in North America.
The Omni Barton Creek Resort & Spa in Austin, Texas has reopened following a $150 million renovation and expansion.
It's Austin's turn to dominate meetings & conventions. Here are five, turn-your-head reasons why.
A new influx of hotels in Austin is making the city a serious hub for meetings.
Team building activities can take place on the Whitewater Putting Course, an 18-hole, par-72 miniature golf course complete with waterfalls and exotic birds.
Last year, the City of Austin started requiring ride-hailing companies, both ride-share companies and taxis, to fingerprint its drivers, and both Uber and Lyft pulled out in protest.
“The campus is surrounded by protected lands, providing privacy and protection from distractions of the outside world ─ key attributes of the Miraval Experience."
“The tagline we used for the project was ‘a hotel in a park,’ and, subsequently, the rooftop pool, gardens and event spaces became known as ‘a park in a hotel.’”
In-room iPads feature newspaper, alarm clock and weather app functions as well as details about the hotel and surrounding area.
Bucherie works with meeting planners to create their own playlists for the meeting rooms, customizing different soundtracks for different areas and even different times throughout the day.
Roughly the size of nine football fields, the park's lagoon will feature 11 surfing areas with four different surfing levels ranging from beginner to pro.
"Tech companies see us as a great incubator. The university is a great source of employment and a new medical school will also be a great source for testing out medical products—the tech industry is embracing that as well.”
The hotel's location in the heart of the entertainment district means attendees don't have to go far to soak up the city's nightlife in nearby SoCo, the Warehouse District, 2nd Street and Sixth Street. | <urn:uuid:3712e90e-ab1a-4dd9-94ff-940e13335da3> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://www.prevuemeetings.com/tag/austin/ | 2022-01-26T17:49:51Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320304959.80/warc/CC-MAIN-20220126162115-20220126192115-00678.warc.gz | en | 0.944272 | 460 |
