+ What is musicmap and the Carta?
The Carta is the static and physical representation of the dynamic and digital musicmap.info: the Genealogy of Popular Music Genres from origin till present. In other words: a comprehensive and complex map of music styles. You can read all about the design and how this map came to be here.
+ What about different sizes and materials?
There is currently only one size per product, as smaller sizes would sacrifice legibility of some of the finer fonts and lines and larger sizes would become very impractical and expensive. Other sizes and materials are possible by custom demand. However, we have tested various sizes and materials and believe the current products offer the best representations of musicmap while keeping the price affordable.
+ Can I request a custom print or place a large order?
If you have a specific order request, like a different color setup or layer combination, size, or a particular type of material, please reach out and we will see what is possible. If you’d like to place a large order or are considering a special B2B opportunity, please contact us at: [email protected].
+ What about music genres from the last years?
The music genres from 2016-2020 are still very fresh and require more time to pass before we can have a proper retrospective look. It is safe to say that the number of truly new core genres formed in these few last years is modest. It is only now, after the end of the decade, that we can look back to the decade even before that (the 2000s) and realize the influence and significance of certain genres.
+ Where do you ship to?
musicmap ships all across the globe, from door to door, with very few exceptions. Unfortunately, there is a small number of countries where we temporarily cannot ship to due to the Covid-19 pandemic. In that case, checkout will not be possible. Please read section 6 of our Terms & Conditions for more information.
+ How long does it take until I receive my package?
Due to the Covid-19 pandemic, shipping times can vary greatly. Also due to volatile demand, we normally ship in batches, so sometimes it takes a little while before a batch is full. So please be patient and understand that we cannot estimate shipping times. Packages are shipped out of the European Union, therefore the distance from the EU is a crucial factor in delivery time. You can check in on your delivery using our Track & Trace service.
+ Help! I did not receive my package!
Please send us an email with your name, address, shipping number, and date of order. Remember that it can take quite a while for your package to arrive. | <urn:uuid:62cc366e-ef3b-464b-86c4-90f9239303a6> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://www.store.musicmap.info/ | 2022-01-17T10:01:37Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320300533.72/warc/CC-MAIN-20220117091246-20220117121246-00238.warc.gz | en | 0.923627 | 659 |
Steve Jobs unveiled the original iPhone to the world 15 years ago, igniting a wave of innovation that permanently transformed the mobile phone market.
During the launch, Steve Jobs famously said, “Today, Apple is going to redefine the phone.”
Nokia handsets and competitors such as BlackBerry, LG, and Sony Ericsson dominated the mobile phone industry at the time. Apple, on the other hand, had made its initial try, and it looked completely different.
On January 9, 2007, Apple unveiled the first iPhone at the Macworld Conference. It wouldn’t be available to buy until June 29 of the next year in the United States, and November in the United Kingdom.
What did the first iPhone offer?
But it wasn’t all there to begin with. The original iPhone received a four-star rating from TechRadar. “Elegant, intuitive, and speedy,” our reviewer said, but added that “the iPhone should do more.”
It has a 3.5-inch screen with a 320 x 480 resolution. To put things in perspective, the most recent iPhone 13 has a 6.1-inch display with a resolution of 1170 x 2532 pixels.
The original iPhone was 115 x 61 x 11.6mm in size and weighed 135 grams. It just had one camera, which was a 2MP snapper (no selfies here). It ran the iPhone OS operating system, which didn’t gain its moniker until 2008, until being renamed iOS in 2010.
Because the initial software didn’t have an App Store, you were only able to use the built-in apps. Camera, Maps, Calculator, iTunes, Calendar, YouTube, Weather, Notes, Phone, Mail, Photos, Stocks, Clock, Settings, and Safari were among those. You could choose between 4GB and 8GB of storage, with a 16GB version arriving in 2008. There was 128MB of RAM in each of those devices.
It came with a 1,400mAh battery, which our reviewer thought was quite impressive. It lasted seven hours and fifteen minutes in our continuous speaking test, and it could also play videos for six hours and fifteen minutes.
It also wasn’t inexpensive. In the United States, the phone priced $499 for a 4GB model and $599 for an 8GB model, plus you had to sign a two-year commitment to receive it. In its first year, it sold over six million units and gave birth to one of the most popular smartphone franchises in the world.
Want to discover how much technology has changed in the previous 15 years and see the initial iPhone launch? In the video below, Steve Jobs takes the stage to announce Apple’s next big thing in 2007. | <urn:uuid:64dc8c8d-85e0-4823-b4dd-77239641693a> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://www.techidea.net/apple-first-iphone/ | 2022-01-17T09:27:51Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320300533.72/warc/CC-MAIN-20220117091246-20220117121246-00238.warc.gz | en | 0.966786 | 574 |

If you’re like most people, you’ve done your fair share of local searches in an effort to find something, be it for a local restaurant or even a roofer. Whatever the reason for the search, you made one. Likely you’ve seen the ads that cover the top of the page, especially since Google removed the ad sidebar. You’ve noticed the large map as well with local businesses. They may even have some good rankings and show up in the organic listing below the map. Local searches have a lot of options available to the person looking.
The way that you perform a search likely differs from the way other people search and by this I mean that what some people look for may differ from what you look for. However, statistics show that about 92% of people look at online reviews of businesses before they commit, according to a BrightLocal survey. A business’s reputation can be more important that the product or service being sold. Reviews are important, though there are plenty of other things that you need to be aware of if you want to succeed in the local search results.
Go the extra mile for your local SEO
When it comes to competition, you want to do better than them, not on par with them. In the local space, this means that you want to make sure that you’re using Schema markup regularly and properly, that you’re working on getting organic ranking improvements through SEO, make sure that your business listings are all accurate, and get some quality links, just to name a few. Taking each step seriously will certainly help put you above your competition to where they’ll have to step up their game if they want to compete with you.
Make Use of Schema Markup
First, don’t fret about not knowing what to do here as Google has created an easy-to-use tool called the Structured Data Markup Helper. With this tool, you’ll be able to quickly and easily create your Schema code that you’ll then simply paste into the <head> of your page. Once you’ve created your code, placed it in the right location, you can test the Schema using the Structured Data Testing Tool. Schema is very useful in making sure that Google has the correct data about your business such as emails, phone numbers, addresses, and of course, reviews.
As the world leading white label provider to agencies across the globe we can help you deliver outstanding SEO results for your clients. Can we help you? Check out more about our White Label Search Engine Optimization Services and learn how we help you achieve the outcomes you are looking for.
As the header states, embrace reviews as they can be a big help to building your business. It can be difficult to figure out what you want to do in this area, however, creating a strategy together is a very good idea. You definitely want to make sure that you’re providing a quick and appropriate response to negative reviews and the Schema markup is in place. As stated, many people searching for local businesses will take reviews into account, even if they just see the stars as compared to reading the reviews, people may avoid your business if there aren’t any stars or if you have only one or two stars.
Check Your Business Listing Information
The first thing you’ll likely want to do is get rid of duplicate listings in Google My Business (GMB). You can check out this site for some help in that area. You’ll then want to make sure that all of your data is correct and that isn’t always easy. Thankfully Moz created a free Check Listing Tool for people to do just that. You want to make sure that Google doesn’t have any doubts about your information and the best way to do that is to fix everything that Google sees so that Google sees only what is accurate about your business.
Build Your Organic Rankings
Taking care of everything else is great, however, if you’re website doesn’t have a great user experience (UX), or isn’t ranking for much or anything, then you’ll want to work on that. Freshen up your main pages, creating additional content that focuses on the main point of that page and work on those meta items (titles and descriptions). A lot of effort doesn’t need to be spent here unless the site really needs some heavy work, though one important piece here is to make sure that you’re website loads fairly quickly as that can be a big negative factor on your local SEO.
Get Some Good Links
For this, you’ll want to develop a good social strategy as you’ll want to engage people with your website to get people to link back to you either through social sites or their own sites. This is likely one of the tougher aspects, but it is definitely a very important one. A lack of good links coming to your site is a flag for Google that either people don’t trust your site or that you’re not important enough to people. Other options here include getting links from local websites for various reasons up to an including your support of local events.
Enjoy the Fruits of Your Labor
Once you’ve done all of those things listed above, you’re well on your way to being one of the top local businesses in your area, if not the best. There is a lot of hard work that goes into being one of the best, though it is absolutely worth it once people start to come to your website or your business and you see the benefits of that hard work. Spend the time it takes to get your business information correct, your website running smoothly, and you’ll be in great shape.
The next steps are really to just maintain all of that hard work, continue to be active in your website SEO, your social activities, and to always be looking to provide the best customer service you possibly can so that you can continue to receive those high ratings and reviews. You’ll be happy to have done all of this and so will your customers when they find you and see just how great you are.

Interested in dipping your toes in the investment market? Maybe you’ve heard that Ashton Kutcher, Justin Timberlake, and other A-listers have made (additional) fortunes by investing in the right startups.
If you have access to the capital, shouldn’t you get in on this cash cow? If you choose the right startups, you might just be able to set up a steady passive income.
Of course, it’s much more challenging than it sounds. First of all, celebrities have disposable cash and it’s not going to hurt them badly if they make a poor decision. They can also afford the best consultants to teach them the ropes and serve on their team when they make choices.

You know how carpooling and shopping at Costco can save money. However, when it comes to food, you don’t really need the mega bottle of mayo. Wholeshare lowers the cost of food by allowing you to buy “as a group,” but you’ll only get (and pay) for the amount you want.
It’s simply cheaper to buy a large six-pack of ketchup from a cost-per-bottle angle. However, if five people in your group also want a bottle of ketchup (or X pounds of poultry, or eggs, or X bunches of bananas), suddenly you’re saving money without the waste.
Who says cake and health care can’t go hand in hand? This company offers a free online tool to track all your health care expenses in one place. You can save money, make sure you don’t miss check-ups, and ensure you have the best policies for your situation. Perfectly timed to coincide with the reality of the Healthcare Act, when everyone is interested in staying on top of his health.

The Department for Education response to the online petition states that it has no plans to change the PE curriculum requirement. It does say it is taking a number of steps to support schools to provide PE and wider opportunities for pupils to be active, which is encouraging.
The response references teacher workforce census data showing a cut in hours of PE taught since 2010, but states that in 2017 PE was still the fourth highest subject in terms of hours taught in secondary schools (after Maths, English and Science).
Responding to the government statement, Youth Sport Trust Chief Executive Ali Oliver said:
“There can be no disagreement that as a nation we aren’t getting it right for children, and too many of them are not gaining the life-changing benefits of sport and play.
Pupils are being taught fewer hours of Physical Education than they were a decade ago, as the government’s response states. And Sport England’s Active Lives research shows 80% of young people fail to do 60 minutes of activity every day - the recommended guideline set out by the Chief Medical Officer.
As a country, we would not accept this sort of decline in English and Maths. We should treat with no less urgency the need to transform and improve young people’s physical education.
“It is disappointing that the Department for Education has said it does not plan to change the PE curriculum requirement. In 2017, there were only around half as many hours of PE on the timetable as there was for English in state-funded secondary schools. The 282,300 hours of PE taught in 2017 is a long way behind the 516,300 hours of English, 511,600 hours of maths and 392,700 hours of combined science. This disparity continues to grow. Almost no subject has faced bigger cuts than PE in recent years, and our own research suggests that even since 2017, one in four schools have reduced its presence on the timetable.
“This problem must be tackled from more than one angle. YST is working with thousands of schools to help improve the quality and intent of teaching in PE. But we also need to see pupils’ progress and achievement in physical development, wellbeing and understanding of healthy, active lifestyles valued with the same importance as progress and achievement in maths and English.
“The government’s minister for sport recently declared that the development of young people’s physical literacy should be put on a par with literacy and numeracy in education.
“It will be absolutely essential that government’s school sport action plan sets out a long-term, joined up approach which delivers on this promise, reversing cuts to PE, tackling the decline in physical activity and maximising the potential of sport and play to improve children’s wellbeing and life chances.” | <urn:uuid:c92c5038-1f3a-4f16-9c95-af558d3a9e20> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://www.youthsporttrust.org/news-insight/news/dfe-does-not-plan-to-change-curriculum-pe-requirement | 2022-01-17T10:50:00Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320300533.72/warc/CC-MAIN-20220117091246-20220117121246-00238.warc.gz | en | 0.967056 | 570 |

Dreamland: The True Tale of America's Opiate Epidemic
Hacker News Stories and CommentsAll the comments and stories posted to Hacker News that reference this book.
You shouldn’t skim the article and assume things and down vote stuff you don’t know about. Sam is a friend of mine and one of the leading experts about this crisis. You should read his book dream land and not jump to conclusions. He’s dedicated a lot to this story. https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/1620402521/ref=dbs_a_w_dp_162...
⬐ jartWhy are you angry with me for downvoting something? How would you know that? Sorry for not reading your friend's book. Never claimed to be a drug expert.
The book to read about the opioid crisis is Dreamland by Sam Quinones.
It is really well written and researched and lays out the several separate events and trends that converged to make this perfect storm happen when and where it did:
One of the big drivers in this has been the quadrupling in opioid prescriptions in the US since 1999.
Opioid pain prescriptions used to be very limited and carefully monitored because of the perceived risk of addiction. The prevailing wisdom on this danger was changed because of some low quality papers on the risk that were pushed by drug companies.
Another big driver has been a more effective opioid selling due to some Mexican drug sellers. Interestingly, these sellers are much less violent than previous opioid sellers.
These reasons are outlined in the excellent book 'Dreamland'
Long interview podcast (~1hr) with the author to listen to or read the transcript of here:
We can conjecture all we'd like, but Sam Quinones wrote a rather definitive history of the opioid epidemic in America. https://www.amazon.com/Dreamland-True-Americas-Opiate-Epidem...
Sam ran the podcast circuit awhile back if you want to listen to his story. I found out about it via Russ Roberts' Econ Talk. http://www.econtalk.org/archives/2017/01/sam_quinones_on.htm...
The book Dreamland covers this quite a bit, and is a good read on the subject:
My takeaway was that opiates were incorrectly classified as a non-addictive way to treat pain, so doctors started dolling them out far too liberally. Hospitals also started employing pain specialists who's sole job was to treat pain in patients. It's pretty easy to find people in any sort of "pain" if that's all you're looking for.
For those interested in this topic and how the opiate epidemic has stretched across the US, read Dreamland by Sam Quinones (https://www.amazon.com/Dreamland-True-Americas-Opiate-Epidem...)
There are a multitude of reasons to explain how this happened but to quickly sum up an excellent book:
- Purdue created the whole "sell-direct-to-doctor" phenomena that is now the norm in the US medical profession
- One bad study that showed opiates for pain relief are NOT addictive and this study kept being cited by sales people
- Mexican drug dealers from a very tiny area in Mexico importing black tar heroin
- A prevailing idea in the US that people should never be in pain and managing it through lifestyle changes is not acceptable; a quick fix is needed
- economic depression in the Midwest and Appalachia regions
But really, read the book. It's eye opening and well written.
I just finished reading Dreamland which I also thought was good.
This book has more of a focus on American pharma industry but still has lots of interesting insider insights.
⬐ daltonlpAlso excellent:
Interesting, but I just listened to Econtalk podcast where the guest, author of the book Dreamland about opioid epidemic, claims that all this epidemy only started at first place because researchers at the time claimed that opioid based pain relief medicine was disassociated from addiction (and pharma companies gladly played along).
Except it wasnt.
Very worthy your time listening to this guy if you are interested in the topic.
⬐ e1g+1. I found this interview highly informative about the background, scale, root causes, and complexities of opium addictions. This episode talks about -EconTalk almost always has engaging discussions, and this interview is no exception.
* What role the doctors, drug companies, and even government policies play in causing the epidemic * How the largest suppliers of heroin came to be, and how they compete based on customer service * How drug addictions can be caused by supply as much as demand. * In the USA, heroin overdosing now takes more lives than all homocides⬐ awfgylbcxhrey⬐ lorenzhsIn the USA, heroin overdosing now takes more lives than all homocides
I'd been hearing about the heroin epidemic for years. I saw articles about needles in Golden Gate park, I saw discarded needles and black-lit restrooms in Vancouver, but it didn't really have weight until I read that 30,092 people died of opioid overdoses in 2015. In the US alone. Over 30,000!
Anyway, I'm just writing this on the off chance that there are others who are still blissfully unaware.
black light makes it difficult to locate a vein for shooting up.The last section of the article (title "A Dose of Caution") covers exactly this. Shouldn't get too excited just yet.⬐ DanBC> researchers at the time claimed that opioid based pain relief medicine was disassociated from addiction
They're mostly right if they're talking about acute pain - post operative pain, for example.⬐ WalterSear>(and pharma companies gladly paid along).⬐ refurbYou have to remember like everything, beliefs around addiction to pain medication ebbs and flows over time.
I can remember back in the late 1990s, there was a huge push from the medical community to be more open about prescribing pain medication. A lot of pain wasn't being adequately treated.
As a result, doctors loosened their reigns over prescribing and things moved drastically in the opposite direction. People were getting strong narcotics for pain that they never would have gotten it for in the past.
As a result, we have a huge upswing in addiction.
My concern is that we're now going to swing back the other way and people will get hurt. There are people out there where narcotics are the only thing that works for their pain. Sometimes they need a lot of them as well, we're talking hundreds of milligrams of morphine per day. They will have physical withdrawal symptoms if they were to stop, but they aren't addicted in the way we think. They don't exhibit "drug seeking" behavior.
I'm worried folks like this will get cutoff and have to live a life in terrible pain. All because other patients get addicted.⬐ lxmorjMy girlfriend is in exactly this situation. She has terminal pain from a Whipple and every step of the way the onus is on her to provide evidence that she isn't a drug-seeker. And there are not clear success criterion. Pharmacists can (and have) arbitrarily decide not to fill her prescription, leaving her without pain meds suddenly and unexpectedly (ie baseline pain returns + withdrawal symptoms).
Illinois won't allow sending pain scripts any more, so we have to go to the hospital to pick it up every month. They won't allow you to fill it more than a single day before you need it, and many pharmacies won't have the total number of pills prescribed in stock. If you accept a partial fill - you forego the remainder. Getting the doctors AND insurance (either of which will likely block it) to understand you had to do a partial fill and thus issue your refill before 30 days is a Sisyphean task.
All this means if the pharmacy at the hospital doesn't have enough Morphine on hand to fill her one month description the day we pick it up - we have 24 hours to play Pharmacy Whack-a-mole trying to find one that both does have enough pills and won't just arbitrarily decide to say no. Even better - while sometimes you can call ahead and ask, often they are afraid you are probing for large supplies with intent to rob them, so they won't always tell you if they have it in stock.
It's a huge pain in the ass with multiple able-bodied family members in her corner. I can't even fucking imagine how torturous this whole process is for someone in her situation without that kind of help. | <urn:uuid:51be3c78-922e-4148-a044-8b7cf74d549a> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://yahnd.com/books/r/asin/1620402521/ | 2022-01-17T10:14:24Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320300533.72/warc/CC-MAIN-20220117091246-20220117121246-00238.warc.gz | en | 0.961832 | 1,842 |

What do you have to do if you want to quit your business and put it up for sale? And the other way around, looking for that perfect acquisition, how to prepare? Professor Ard-Pieter de Man explains.
The decision has been made, the company will be sold. But for it to be an attractive deal, it is vital to enter the M&A market well prepared. Professor at the Vrije Universiteit of Amsterdam, Ard-Pieter de Man – School of Business and Economics, Department of Management & Organization – lists four items that require attention: revenue, cost, risk, and scanning the potential buyer.
“The buyer buys to grow his business”, says Prof. De Man. “So make sure you have plenty of orders and contracts. As an entrepreneur you can’t always control that of course, but if you know that an important contract will be extended in a year, and you want to sell your business before that, negotiate an early contract renewal. That shows the potential buyer that, even in the long run, cash flow and revenue will be OK. The more loyal the customers, the more certain the revenue, the higher the price of your company can be.”
That same buyer will also look very closely at costs to decide whether to acquire the company or not. De Man: “Has the company already been re-organized? What about excessive staff, and can unused real estate be put up for sale right now? What a potential buyer absolutely doesn’t want, are complicated employee termination procedures, obsolete IT and machinery, or insufficient knowledge and training of employees. Be sure to avoid those! Furthermore, don’t ignore investments. Has the owner of the company let that slide because he’s getting out anyway? Not wise: potential buyers will walk away, or – in the best-case scenario – offer a much lower price.”
The nightmare of any merger or acquisition is of course a skeleton in the closet. “You can never be 100 percent sure, but do check ongoing legal proceedings. Perhaps you can finish those before you put your company up for sale. Also check labor contracts, the relationships between employer and employees, what’s going on in HR, et cetera.”
Prof. De Man points out another aspect, particularly important during the ongoing war for talent: how loyal are key staff members? “Will those important and difficult to replace employees keep working for the organization, or are they ready to leave at any given moment? Make sure they’re satisfied, let them look forward to some great education and a promising career.”
The final question is: who do you want the buyer to be? “A refrigerator manufacturer acquiring a competitor will look mainly at your revenue. Does that company already own state-of-the-art machinery? It doesn’t really matter. A buyer like that is perhaps more interested in merging the two factories into one. But if, for example, the prospective buyer is a manufacturer of vacuum cleaners, he’s probably looking to diversify. He prefers to acquire an existing company because it is a completely new activity for him. In other words, decide first what kind of a buyer you would like to sell to, and then act accordingly, for instance by first modernizing.
On the prowl yourself
The other way around, are you ready to strike quickly in the often merciless M&A war? Cash is king. Ard-Pieter de Man: “So how are your finances? Are you using your own capital, will you borrow? Make sure all of that is arranged. Also, consult your shareholders beforehand, so you know what they want. Be ready for the post-merger integration: when the deal is signed, then what? Different processes will appear, new people will arrive in your organization, the differences in culture must be bridged. Often employees only know about the deal after it has been closed, because negotiations are usually done behind closed doors. Make sure that sufficient knowledge is shared afterwards, that people know where and how to find each other.”
Employees are also highly sensitive to a sudden relocation of the acquired company. People then need to move as well, or endure long commutes. That may well result in the departure of talent. Perhaps an option is to keep using the office location of the acquired company. “In that case the prerequisite is that both companies will cooperate closely – a true merger. If not, in the end more harm than profit will remain from that expensive acquisition.

2021 has been a year of reflection. As we look around, watching our world slowly return to as it was before (or totally change its course), we seek the experiences of others to inform our own.
Music has been our rock throughout, but no medium does more for the verbosity of the human mind than literature. This year, we’ve turned the pages of many great books: some that reflect on the past - be it personal, historical, or a mix of both - some that give insight on the present, and some that guide our future.
Exploring innovative music, fiction and art publications of all genres, we once again celebrate our favorite books of the year. Including specially signed titles as well as some Rough Trade Exclusive editions, our selections below make the perfect gift, or treat for your fine self.
Book of the Year 2021
Signed 240-page book, which comes with a Rough Trade Exclusive Exclusive high-res print on baryta paper, signed & numbered on the back.
Punk and hip-hop have always felt like kindred spirits. Both were born out of the practices by stripping popular music down bare and refashioning them into something new. It required no formal training, just grit and hustle. Observing it all was Janette Beckman with her camera. The famed photographer spent decades lensing but Rebels is perhaps her greatest artistic statement. Tracing two subcultures’ rise out from the underground, it’s a momentous occasion of two world’s colliding.
Michelle Zauner has had one hell of a year. Japanese Breakfast’s Jubilee marked another success for the indie pop act and her soundtrack for the indie game Sable was downright charming. So when we crown Zauner’s memoir Crying in H Mart as her greatest achievement in 2021, it’s not to be taken lightly. A stunning portrait of loss and maternal relationships told with remarkable clarity. Elegantly written yet frank in its assessments, it’s the most heart-wrenching read you’ll have all year.
In 1999, Nina Simone took to the stage for one of her final performances in Great Britain for a legendary performance at Nick Cave’s Meltdown Festival. In the awe of the aftermath, Bad Seeds founder Warren Ellis crept towards her piano and snatched a piece of her chewed gum. Exploring the creative flow from an unlikely muse, Ellis reflects on the titular gum with the same thoughtful idiosyncrasy of his music.
Signed by the author!
One of pop culture’s great enigma’s, Nico’s story has always been too difficult to properly tell; too shrouded in a -- mostly self-invented -- mystery. Jennifer Otter Bickendike cuts through the fog of mythology to view Nico as she was: complex, pained, and everlasting. While we may never truly understand the German singer, we can understand what has made her so influential.
Includes A5 Art Card!
It’s a fairly common opinion that Dave Grohl is a likable guy. He’s perhaps the only person who could compete with Tom Hanks for the title of America’s Dad and reading his book sounds like it’s straight from the La-Z-Boy in between Monday night football commercials. Reflecting on his time in DC’s hardcore scene, drumming for the biggest band in the world, and carving out his own path in the wake of Nirvana’s dissolution. His rock ‘n’ roll fantasy became a reality, and it's told with the humor and everyman sensibilities that have always endeared us to him.
Losing Genesis P. Orridge in 2020 was like a knife in the heart. A trailblazer for industrial music and gender identity in the public eye, the Manchester artist was an icon of the avant garde. Thankfully they left us with one final work, a memoir that explores Genesis‘s search for identity and innovation with the same bravado that drew us to their work in the first place.
Joseph M. Giordano has photographed his native Baltimore for decades . We Used to Live At Night sees twenty-five years of Baltimore nightlife shot in rich black and white. Giordano explores his city woth unflinching candor, pushing his lens through back alleys, underground clubs, and even illicit sex parties to memorialize a nightlife that has since passed but once thrived.
Signed Rough Trade Exclusive White Rabbit collector's edition. Hand numbered with a lyric stamp, specially designed endpapers and a bespoke slipcase.
From his humble Glasgow origins to releasing one of the defining albums of the 1990s, Bobby Gillespie looks back at a life of reckless ambition with memoir Tenement Kid. One of rock music’s greatest students, he traces his origin story back to the punk revolution and through Britain’s ever-changing indie rock scenes. It’s an exhilarating work, one that’s unmistakably his own.
Signed by Questlove!
Fifty years of American history filtered through the encyclopedic musical knowledge of Questlove. One track per year, each significant in issues of politics, gender, race, and identity, examined with the inquisitivity of a documentarian and the vulnerability of a poet. Bandleader, filmmaker, and now author, Questlove proves he really can do it all as he’s never felt more personal as he does here.
The East Village of the past has slowly faded away. Once a neighborhood rich with grime and artistry, it has scrubbed itself clean of its most colorful elements. Cult figure John Lurie preserves the memory of his former neighborhood with vivid detail as he reflects on the downtown that once was. Bouncing between the tumultuous life of a touring musician, to a prodigy by the name of Basquiat sleeping on his apartment floor, The History of Bones gives us a peek into a world that’s long gone .

- Karla & Lee’s ‘first time’ at the night club.
Vote in the tour poll for the male POV scene HERE.
I’ve adored every one of the Hearts books by L.H. Cosway, but I think Hearts of Blue might be my favorite one so far. I LOVED Karla and Lee together – they are the sweetest couple EVER! I’d been looking forward to their story ever since I read about them in King of Hearts, because a romance between a police constable and a thief? YES. PLEASE. I freaking love the opposites-attract trope, and L.H. Cosway has written one that is an absolute joy to read. If you’re a fan of the series, you absolutely must read Hearts of Blue – it’s an exciting, sexy, and heartwarmingly sweet romance that I loved.
“Give me a chance, and I’ll prove to you that everything you think you see is blurred by perception.”
Karla Sheehan sees things in black and white, which makes the job of a police constable perfect for her. She gets to uphold the law, protect the innocent, and send the not-so-innocent to jail. But what happens when her black-and-white heart starts to fall for someone who lies on the gray side of the law?
“You make me feel so fucking alive,” Lee said fervently, his words muffled by my skin. “Made for me.”
Lee might be only a few years younger than Karla, but he’s lived through so much. He’s had to take care of his family since he was just a boy, and he’s never stopped. When he loves, he does it with everything he’s got, and he’ll do anything to protect what he loves. And from the moment Lee meets Karla, he sets his eyes on her, determined to make her see that what they have, the connection that they’ve formed from the start, is something worth exploring.
I loved Lee and Karla. SO much. They are witty, sassy, so much fun read about – they’re the kind of characters that you wish were real. And I couldn’t believe how ridiculously sweet this book was – I love that Lee falls so hard for Karla, trying to protect her from the bad parts of his life all the while making her love him back. The thing that surprised me the most about Hearts of Blue was definitely Lee’s character. I was expecting him to be some obvious bad boy, but he’s actually so much more than that. He’s not just a bad boy to Karla’s good girl – he’s got depth, and his heart is loyal like no other. He is now my favorite hero of L.H. Cosway’s so far.
The world isn’t blue, isn’t lonely any more, and though I was supposed to be the thief, she was the one who stole my heart.
Hearts of Blue is a satisfying, fun, and unique romance I couldn’t put down. Every time I pick up an L.H. Cosway novel, I know I’m going to be entertained. Her stories are unlike any other and are simply unforgettable. If you haven’t tried her books yet, you are missing out!

Andrew Morello has made generosity the underlying driving force in his life and it has created unequalled success for others as well as himself.
Andrew, who you will remember from the first Australian Apprentice show, is a living, breathing example of the benefits that generosity has for you and the world around you.
The Mighty Morello is one of those rare people that you meet who’s massive heart, genuine care and moving motivation inspires all of those around him to take their lives to the next level and to be living the dream, as my wife Sonya and I found out when we spent time with him at The Entourage a few years back.
Today, Morello’s an awarded entrepreneur, investor, author, and Head of Business Development at The Entourage, which is Australia’s largest training institution for entrepreneurs and business owners.
Prior to this he spent 10 years alongside Mark Bouris AM building out the Yellow Brick Road Wealth Management branch network nationally.
Morello has also personally built an impressive property portfolio, and his endless generosity has also led him to drive numerous community projects across Australia and internationally, including being a Founding Board Member of Project Gen Z, a social enterprise which runs entrepreneur and development programs for disadvantaged children. In recent years, Morello has summited Mount Kinabalu in Borneo and completed the Kokoda Trail to raise money for the Seed Foundation, which supports indigenous health programs in remote communities.
Morello is also an active member of Australia’s entrepreneurial and real estate communities, an engaging and charismatic speaker, and passionate about sharing his successes and creating success for other entrepreneurs, business owners and investors to help you and others reach your full potential and not waste your precious life.
In the first episode of a two-part special of our great conversation, we touch on ‘the why’ of Andrew’s generosity, we walk through his generous life achievements to date, we do a deep dive on his life changing experience as the winner of the first Australian Apprentice and how generosity helped him win despite the odds, and we talk about the pro’s and con’s of celebrity and how he has leveraged his celebrity to achieve great things in the world for himself and others.
And if you want to experience the warmth of his generosity personally while taking your business to the next level, reach out to him at The Entourage via https://www.the-entourage.com where you’ll join an elite coaching and training community for business owners everywhere.
And following the Mighty Morello’s generosity inspiration, I want to challenge you to make random acts of kindness and generosity for your family and work as your mission in the month ahead – you’ll be teaching your kids and colleagues to pay it forward and show kindness to others every day in a variety of ways.
So start right now with your generosity 30-day challenge. Just choose and carry out a random act of kindness every day. Because by the time you finish, you’ll have developed the habit of generosity and you’ll be well on your way to making the world a kinder place.

This was originally posted on 1.7.08, when I thought that Tricia might be asleep for just a few hours after her intubation...if you somehow missed this post, I think it's a good read for everyone.
Please, if you have known Tricia at any point in time, and you would like to share a story/memory/etc. about her with everyone else, leave a comment on this post. She'll be sleeping for most of the day tomorrow (although you can post at any time), and it will be incredibly encouraging for her to hear me read to her your memories when she wakes up.
(If you don't know Tricia...like, really know her in person...please, simply read along and don't comment on this post so that we can keep it on target) | <urn:uuid:afae60d6-1003-49e1-8f5e-24d7ab5d6a6f> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://cfhusband.blogspot.com/2008/01/for-tricia.html | 2022-01-18T18:56:15Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320300997.67/warc/CC-MAIN-20220118182855-20220118212855-00318.warc.gz | en | 0.980122 | 185 |
The Call of Duty Staff announced an updated to their anti cheat systems on the official blog this evening reinforcing that they have a zero tolerance policy for cheats on both call of Duty and Call of Duty Warzone.
COD has recently faced harsh criticism for the rampant amount of cheating going on and some big name streamers like Vikstar have even announced that they are leaving the game due to the amount of cheating going on. You can see his tweet and watch the video explaining the drama.
According to the post, Activision banned 60,000 accounts for verified usage of cheating software in Call of Duty which brings their total to over 300,000 permanent bans worldwide since the launch.
They also will bolster efforts to detect and swifty ban known cheats and go to the source of people who distribute 3rd party software.
Since COD has launched they have taken several actions such as:
- Weekly backend updates of security systems
- Improved in-game reporting systems
- 2FA which has flagged over 180,000 suspect accounts
- Eliminated unauthorized 3rd party software providers
- Increased the size of dedicated teams for software dev, engineering, data science, legal and monitoring
Efforts are being expanded in the following areas:
- Enhancements to anti-cheat software internally
- Additional detection tech
- New resources dedicated to monitoring and enforcement

EXCLUSIVE: Michael Ealy is set as a lead opposite Kristen Bell and Tom Riley in Netflix’s eight-episode limited series The Woman in the House, from Gloria Sanchez Productions (Dead To Me, Hustlers). The series is expected to premiere in early 2022.
Created by Rachel Ramras, Hugh Davidson and Larry Dorf, who also serve as co-showrunners, The Woman In The House centers around heartbroken Anna (Bell), for whom every day is the same. She sits with her wine, staring out the window, watching life go by without her. But when a handsome neighbor (Riley) and his adorable daughter (Samsara Yett) move in across the street, Anna starts to see a light at the end of the tunnel. That is until she witnesses a gruesome murder… Or did she?
Ealy will play Douglas, Anna’s ex-husband. Bookish and pragmatic, he still has love for Anna but their past keeps them from imagining a future together.
Mary Holland, Shelley Hennig, Cameron Britton, Christina Anthony and Benjamin Levy Aguilar also co-star opposite Bell, who executive-produces the limited series alongside Will Ferrell, Jessica Elbaum and Brittney Segal for Gloria Sanchez Productions.
Ealy’s credits also include major roles on ABC’s Secrets and Lies, Fox’s The Following and Almost Human and BET’s Being Mary Jane and a recurring role on HBO’s Westworld. He was most recently seen on the big screen in Lionsgate feature Fatale opposite Hilary Swank. His other feature work includes The Intruder, The Perfect Guy and Think Like A Man franchise. He’s repped by Gersh and Anonymous Content. | <urn:uuid:8eb62336-449e-4672-9158-b6378cb436eb> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://deadline.com/print-article/1234871027/?KeepThis=1&TB_iframe=1&height=500&width=750 | 2022-01-18T20:21:08Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320300997.67/warc/CC-MAIN-20220118182855-20220118212855-00318.warc.gz | en | 0.936688 | 364 |
A couple of months ago, we were in Florence, Alabama where the flagship of Billy Reid is (love that Billy has shops in NYC, Atlanta, Austin, Charleston, Dallas, Houston, Nashville, New Orleans, and Washington, and that the flagship and design studio is here in Alabama). It was too late and they were closed already, but I got these shots of the as-always gorgeous interior:
Here, Billy’s Spring/Summer 2015 Runway:

This, from Oxford American, which shows what a fantastic gentleman he is. Billy’s emailed me before, thanking me for supporting him here on DFK, and invited me to look him up. He’s just genuine. Love to see someone so nice, so real, doing so well:

The Indian trio of Jeev Milkha Singh, SSP Chawrasia and Shiv Kapur crashed out of the Aberdeen Asset Management Scottish Open late on Friday.
The 2012 winner, Jeev, who was tied 30th after the first day, had two double bogeys on his second nine, which was the front of the course, and carded 75 for a total of three-over 147 and missed the cut one shot.
Chawrasia was unable to repair the first round damage of 78 and despite a one-under 71, he was five-over 149, while Kapur struggled to 78-76.
Alex Noren took advantage of more benign conditions on day two to shoot a bogey-free round of 66 and open up a slender advantage heading into the weekend at Castle Stuart.
The Swede posted six birdies in a flawless display in Inverness to climb to eight under par, one shot clear of New Zealand’s Danny Lee and Englishman Eddie Pepperell, who posted respective rounds of 66 and 67.
World No 10 Branden Grace (six under par), Ireland’s Padraig Harrington and his fellow Major Champion Graeme McDowell (both five under) are also firmly in contention, whilst the home charge is led by Richie Ramsay (four under), Inverness-born Russell Knox and Marc Warren (both two under). | <urn:uuid:842e3fed-9f33-498c-ad0a-6954a23b5782> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://english.newsnationtv.com/sports/golf/all-three-indians-miss-cut-at-scottish-open-138113.html | 2022-01-18T20:25:49Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320300997.67/warc/CC-MAIN-20220118182855-20220118212855-00318.warc.gz | en | 0.958048 | 292 |
About 5,000 years ago, the people who lived in what is now Ireland’s Boyne Valley, built vast monuments to honor their dead. Newgrange, about an hour’s drive from Dublin, is the best known. This United Nations World Heritage Site draws 200,000 visitors per year. If you’re interested in ancient mysteries, prehistoric Ireland’s Newgrange is a must.
Newgrange is a huge mound of stone and turf about 44 feet high, with a long inner passage leading to a burial chamber. Experts estimate that it would have taken 300 workers at least 20 years to build the passage. Outside the base was once a circle or curve of more than 30 standing stones, some of them 8 feet high; 12 stones are still standing. During the 1700s much of Newgrange was removed for building material, but it has been restored, including a replica of the original façade of white quartz.
The stones of Newgrange are beautifully carved with spirals and other symbols, including the famous triple spiral marking the entrance. Inside, excavators found immense stone basins, cremated bodies, bones, and bits of flint and pins, all evidence of ancient rituals. It’s an eery, marvelous place, but the most remarkable aspect of the site is its astrological significance. It is probably the world’s oldest calendar clock. A roof-box at the passage entrance is aligned with the winter solstice sunrise, and every year, on the solstice, the sun’s rays precisely illuminate the dark chamber. It lasts for about 20 minutes at dawn for a few days around the solstice, although today, because of changes in the tilt of Earth, the rays do not reach the deepest recess of the chamber.
Needless to say, the winter solstice is a popular time of year to visit. Winter visitors are now allowed in only by lottery, and more than 30,000 applications are submitted yearly for the draw of 50 names. Forms are available at the Brú na Bóinne Visitor Centre. At any time of year, access to the Newgrange Passage Tomb is by guided tour through the visitor center, located near the village of Donore, County Meath. The last tour of the day is 90 minutes before the center’s closing time. Summer hours are 9 a.m. to 7 p.m., and vary during the rest of the year. Wear sturdy walking shoes and bring rain gear – this is Ireland, and you know what makes it so green.
Several hotels and B&Bs dot the landscape. Newgrange Lodge is an old but updated farmhouse just opposite Newgrange. Its 7 acres overlook the River Boyne and the ancient sites. Breakfast is provided, there is a dining area, and you can order a packed lunch. Ash Cottage, in nearby Navan, is a bed-and-breakfast with comfortable rooms. The town of Navan has restaurants, pubs, shops, and a movie theater. | <urn:uuid:0fd81582-9202-419d-9525-a1dbf3f17d00> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://europeupclose.com/article/newgrange-a-touch-of-prehistoric-ireland/ | 2022-01-18T19:48:47Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320300997.67/warc/CC-MAIN-20220118182855-20220118212855-00318.warc.gz | en | 0.946671 | 625 |

Statement of Faith and Beliefs
As adopted in our Church By-Law
This statement of beliefs provides a doctrinal framework which gives stability and identity to Grace Community Church. We believe each part of the doctrinal statement is necessary to provide that stability and identity. Where we have taken positions on areas of disagreement among segments of evangelical Christianity, we have chosen the position that we believe best reflects the Biblical “weight of evidence.” We do not intend to imply that there can be no other belief among people who love the Lord and His Word, nor that we can have no meaningful fellowship and partnership with those who might disagree.
Any doctrinal statement inherently requires that a choice be made between competing viewpoints. To seek a doctrinal statement that would include only those beliefs that all Christendom holds in common would be of no value in defining and contending for “the faith that was once for all entrusted to the saints” (Jude 3). This statement of faith is not intended to be used as a guideline for allowing or denying attendance or involvement. We believe the commitment that a prospective partner makes to “abide by the articles of faith and practice of this church” (see section under “Partnership,”) does not necessarily demand agreement in every detail. It does, however, require the willingness to respect the church’s position in the matter in question, refrain from practicing or teaching anything contrary in any church function or gathering, and maintain a spirit of openness to the teachings of the Word in that area and all other matters.
We do believe that a church’s membership should share a firm commitment to a number of areas that constitute the “core” of the faith. These would certainly include, though not necessarily be limited to, the Godhead (the Trinity), the nature of Jesus Christ, His work in providing substitutionary atonement in His death and resurrection, salvation by faith apart from human effort, and a commitment to the full inspiration and authority of the Scriptures.
What We Believe
(a) The Scriptures. We believe the Bible to be the verbally inspired word of God, without error in the original writings, and the supreme and final authority in doctrine and practice, for both this church and every individual Christian (II Timothy 3:16; II Peter 1:21).
(b) The Godhead. We believe in one God who eternally exists in three persons: The Father, the Son and Holy Spirit. Each person of the Godhead possesses the same nature and attributes, but each is distinct in office and activity (Deuteronomy 6:4; Matthew 28:19; II Corinthians 13:14).
(c) Jesus Christ. We believe that Jesus Christ is the eternal Son of God, that He became man without ceasing to be God having been conceived of the Holy Spirit and born of the virgin Mary, that He lived a sinless life, that He died as a substitutionary sacrifice for every human being, that He was physically raised from the dead by divine power, that He presently serves in heaven as our Intercessor and Advocate and that He will return to earth (John 1:1, 14: 5:18; II Corinthians 5:21; Acts 2:31-33; I John 2:1-2; John 14:1-2).
(d) The Holy Spirit. We believe that God the Holy Spirit is a person who restrains evil in the world, convicts men of sin, regenerates those who trust Christ as Savior, baptizes them into the body of Christ, indwells them permanently, seals them unto the day of redemption, bestows spiritual gifts on each one and fills those yielded to Him. We believe that some gifts of the Spirit, such as speaking in tongues and miraculous healings, were given as authenticating signs in the early church and were temporary. We believe, however, that God answers prayer for the sick in accordance with his will (John 16:7-11; 3:8; I Corinthians 12:4-11; 13:8; John 14:16-17; Ephesians 4:30; 5:18; I Corinthians 14:22-24; Hebrews 2:4; I John 5:14-15; James 5:15-16).
(e) Angels. We believe that angels are spiritual beings which were created sinless. Presently angels exist in both fallen and unfallen states, the former state including Satan and his demons. We believe that Satan is a created being who is the enemy of God and all Christians (Hebrews 1:13-14; II Peter 2:4; Isaiah 14:12-14; Genesis 3:1-19; Hebrews 2:14; Revelation 20:10).
(f) Man. We believe that man was created by God as a human being and that he did not evolve from a lower form of life. We believe that he was created innocent and in the image of God. Through their own choice Adam and Eve, the parents of the human race, fell and their sin has resulted in physical and spiritual death to themselves and their descendants. We believe that man is totally depraved, that is, in no way is he able to commend himself to God. He has inherited a sinful nature, is alienated from God and in need of salvation (Genesis 1:1; 27; Colossians 1:16-17; Genesis 2:17; 3:19; Ephesians 2:1-2).
(g) Salvation. We believe that salvation is the gift of God’s grace. It cannot be gained by meritorious work, but is freely bestowed upon all who put their faith in the finished work of Jesus Christ at Calvary. All who so trust the Savior are forgiven of their sins and born into the family of God by the regenerating work of the Holy Spirit (Ephesians 2:8, 9; 1;17; John 1:12).
(h) Security, Assurance, and Responsibility. We believe that all the saved — those in whom God has accomplished His transforming work of grace — are kept by His power and are thus secure in Christ forever. It is their privilege to rejoice in the assurance of their salvation. However, this assurance is not the occasion for sin, for God in holiness cannot tolerate persistent sin in His children, and in infinite love He corrects them. True faith in Christ is expressed by a fruitful, God-pleasing life (John 10:27-29; Romans 8:29-39; I John 5:13; Hebrews 12:6; Matthew 7:20; James 2:20).
(i) The Church. We believe that the universal church, the body of Christ, is a spiritual organism composed of all genuine Christians who live between the Day of Pentecost (Acts 2) and the Rapture (I Thessalonians 4:16-17). A believer becomes a member of this church by the baptizing work of the Holy spirit the moment he trusts Christ as his savior (I Corinthians 12:13; Romans 8:9, 16; Colossians 1:18). We believe that the local church is an assembly of professing Christians who voluntarily join together in one locality to worship God, study the Bible, observe the ordinances, practice Christian fellowship, pray, evangelize the lost and be equipped for Christian service (Acts 2:42-47; I Corinthians 1:1-2; Ephesians 4:11-13). We believe that Christ instituted the ordinances of water baptism and the Lord’s Supper which are to be observed until He returns, and that these are the only ordinances He so appointed. By water baptism a believer identifies himself publicly with Christ and His people. Water baptism is intended to be for believers only. The Lord’s Supper is a memorial of Christ’s death, the elements being symbolic of His body and blood. Every believer should partake of the Lord’s Supper, but only when he is in fellowship with the Lord (Matthew 28:19-20; Romans 6:1-14; I Corinthians 11:23-26).
(j) The Future. We believe in the personal, imminent return of Jesus Christ for the church. This event (the Rapture) will be followed in order by the Tribulation, the Second Coming of Christ to earth, the Millenium Reign of Christ on the earth and entrance into the Eternal State. We believe that the souls of believers in Jesus Christ pass immediately into His presence at death and remain there in conscious bliss until the resurrection of the body at His coming for the Church, when soul and body will be reunited and joined with Him forever. We believe that after death the souls of unbelievers remain in conscious misery in Hades until the final judgment of the Great White Throne at the close of the Millennium when soul and body reunited shall be cast into the Lake of Fire, not to be annihilated, but to be punished with everlasting separation from the presence of the Lord. We believe in a literal heaven and a literal hell (Luke 16:19-26; 23:43; II Corinthians 5:8; Philippians 1:23; II Thessalonians 1:7-9; Revelation 20:11-15).
We proclaim that the institution of marriage was established and ordained by God (Genesis 2:24). Therefore, “Go created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him, male and female created he them” (Genesis 1:27). He created “the woman for the man” (! Corinthians 11:9). Therefore, “marriage is honorable” (Hebrews 13:4).
We believe that since the beginning of recorded history, in most cultures of the world; marriage has been defined as the lawful union of one man and one woman. The traditional form of marriage is one of the bedrock institutions of most societies. We, therefore, affirm the preservation of the present definition of marriage as being the legal union of one man and one woman as husband and wife.
We believe that “Children are a heritage of the Lord; and the fruit of the womb is his reward.” (Psalms 127:3). In order to provide for continuation of the species, God created within male and female the potential for bearing children. The first commandment given to Adam and Eve was to “be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth.” (Genesis 1:28). Marriage between male and female provide the structure for conceiving and raising children. Compliance with this command of God is a physical and biological impossibility in same-sex unions. We, therefore, believe that only marriages between male and female, as ordained by God, is essential for the procreation of mankind. | <urn:uuid:9afa8121-953a-4ee9-bb34-19c4b16bd15b> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://gccnd.org/about-grace/statement-of-faith-belief/ | 2022-01-18T19:17:27Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320300997.67/warc/CC-MAIN-20220118182855-20220118212855-00318.warc.gz | en | 0.955321 | 2,237 |
Genacross Lutheran Services has begun a $1.1 million interior renovation of the Health Center on the Genacross Lutheran Services-Napoleon Campus, formerly Lutheran Home at Napoleon. Renovations include general updates of interior finishes and some room layout changes, which affect approximately 18,000 square feet of the 45,000 square-foot facility.
“The interior renovations project underway at the Napoleon Campus illustrates the organization’s ongoing commitment to providing a positive health care experience for patients and residents,” stated Denise Gannon, Vice President of Poste-Acute Services.
The renovation project will achieve two major goals:
- Create a dedicated skilled rehabilitation unit for short-term patients that will feature a luxurious, spa-like atmosphere
- Generate a warm, home-like environment for long-term residents that will feature distinctive touches and be more conducive to personal choice.
The Health Center will experience many changes, including new flooring, paint and wall coverings, and LED lighting in most common areas. The scope of work includes updates to the lobby, chapel, and main corridors, and an expansion of the existing therapy space. In addition, the east and west resident wings will see major alterations: removal of central nurses’ stations, creation of new work areas and medication rooms, complete renovation of central baths, and re-configuring of dining rooms.
Work began primarily on the west side of the building in November 2016 and will progress to the east side, with other areas sequenced in as they are available and in order to minimize the disruption to patients, residents, and on-going operations. Completion is expected in summer 2017.
The existing building was first constructed in the early 1980s, with an addition (lobby, offices, and chapel) and updated finishes completed in the late 1990s.
The architect for the project is Duket Architects Planners in Toledo; the general contractor is Rupp/Rosebrock in Liberty Center; the mechanical, electrical and plumbing contractor is JDRM Engineering in Sylvania; and the interior design firm is Buffy McConnell Interior Design in Toledo.

siblings – surprise – sleepover
In the evening before my parents 45th anniversary we all showed up unexpectedly. We organized a surprise sleep-over at my parents house. It was very unique to be together with all ten siblings.
One of the reasons for our visit to the Netherlands was my parents anniversary and to see my brother and his family before they head back to Tanzania, later this week.
And what a surprise it was! My mother was speechless, my dad was thinking that we just came for a cup of tea. But we stayed. We had a lovely, very precious time together. Wine by moonlight, sitting in a circle, reading psalm 128 before bedtime.
The five brothers went for an evening walk and the five sisters practiced their belly muscles on the corridor floor. We talked till the little hours at night and fell peacefully asleep, realizing that it is very precious that this is possible and that everybody is still alive after all those years.
This picture was taken at breakfast, with thanks to sis Rieneke who organized this.
Every family has lots of stories, good ones and sad ones. But there are moments when you just think about the good that is here. This moment was one of them.
It is just grace that brought us this far. And only grace it will be, that lead us home. | <urn:uuid:a0116e38-d95f-4a2e-91dc-5be552c95243> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://jannekeonderweg.nl/siblings-surprise-sleepover/ | 2022-01-18T18:57:28Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320300997.67/warc/CC-MAIN-20220118182855-20220118212855-00318.warc.gz | en | 0.980657 | 277 |
This Just In: Joe Biden Won’t Be Joining the Presidential Race
Joe Biden announced in a press conference in the White House’s Rose Garden today that he won’t seek the presidency. Flanked by President Obama and his wife, Dr. Jill Biden, he announced that the door has closed for him to mount a successful campaign for President.
He pointed out that he won’t just be a quiet spectator however–he plans on weighing in on various national conversations as they unfold in the Democratic primary and general election.
— The Boston Globe (@BostonGlobe) October 21, 2015
In his announcement, Biden spoke strongly about Obama’s legacy, of which he said he was proud to be a part, but also emphasized that he didn’t want anyone to back away from that legacy–clearly a shot at any Democrats who seek to distinguish themselves from Obama in a negative way.
Biden also highlighted many issues that the Democrats need to focus on moving forward. The bevy of issues he chose to highlight included a need to focus on helping the middle class, combatting the influx of money in politics, the need for affordable college education, upping the childcare tax credit, raising taxes on the very rich, accepting that we can’t be the world’s police, compromising with the Republican party, and seeking equality for different communities such as immigrants, women, minorities, and those who identify as LGBTQ. He also spoke about an issue incredibly close to his heart–increasing funding for cancer and other medical research–a very understandable sentiment given the recent death of his son, Beau Biden, due to brain cancer.
Overall, the announcement focused more on Biden’s hopes and attempts to provide inspiration, rather than his choice not to join the race. He spoke of the central American belief of “possibilities,” and reaffirmed his focuses for the next 15 months he will remain in office.
This announcement comes as a huge surprise after political gossip earlier this week indicated that Biden was going to throw his hat into the ring. Top political reporters and news outlets, including Fox News’ Ed Henry who broke that story, reported that he’d be announcing his candidacy in the next couple days. Others, including freshman Congressman Brendan Boyle, echoed that sentiment. However, Biden’s decision not to run appears to be absolute.
The Democratic field will remain decidedly un-crowded, with the race appearing to boil down to frontrunner Hillary Clinton and her top challenger Bernie Sanders. While Biden may have a voice moving forward, he has spoken, and that word is final: he will not be running for President of the United States. | <urn:uuid:df64e44a-f66b-45a7-aa86-7ccb72af56e6> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://legacy.lawstreetmedia.com/elections/this-just-in-joe-biden-wont-be-joining-the-presidential-race/ | 2022-01-18T19:13:07Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320300997.67/warc/CC-MAIN-20220118182855-20220118212855-00318.warc.gz | en | 0.974294 | 555 |

The Bridge Across Forever: Devices for CHF
This article was originally published in Start Up
A new generation of miniature, totally implantable devices for end-stage congestive heart failure promises to return patients to normal lives. If the implantable ventricular assist devices can function reliably for many years, they may offer patients an alternative to heart transplantation and even arrest the progression of the diseases at earlier stages.
You may also be interested in...
MicroMed has the smallest LVAD on the market (outside of the US), which makes it suitable for the sought-after destination therapy market. The MicroMed LVAD has been implanted in more then 450 patients, which makes it second only to Thoratec in terms of the number of implants. But it hasn't been easy. To get to this point, MicroMed chewed through large helpings of money-seed funding, four rounds of venture capital, and a bank financing, before going public in 2005 through a reverse merger with a shell company. By the end of 2007, MicroMed needed to raise money on top of a large accumulated deficit. Rescue came from private equity group E-Wilson, which took the company private.
After cutting his teeth on heart pump technology at re-start Impella, Rolf Kaese thought he had found the perfect vehicle to build a ventricular assist device business at Berlin Heart. But now Kaese is starting over and so is Berlin Heart after a falling out between the two, in a tale that's an object lesson to anyone who's ever had to begin again.
Medical device investors who have avoided heart failure, because of the long and uncertain development course of ventricular assist devices, should take another look. The minimally invasive revolution in heart failure, to some extent a logical extension of interventional cardiology's migration into other areas of structural heart disease like heart valves and PFOs, is providing new device opportunities, which have the potential to get to market sooner and at the same address an even larger patient population than heart failure devices that came before. | <urn:uuid:c1134223-84ab-4a0d-ae59-c01559984019> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://medtech.pharmaintelligence.informa.com/MT037021/The-Bridge-Across-Forever-Devices-for-CHF | 2022-01-18T19:40:11Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320300997.67/warc/CC-MAIN-20220118182855-20220118212855-00318.warc.gz | en | 0.942354 | 419 |

In the year 2265, he was a commodore in command of the Constellation when he and his crew discovered the meta-genome that fast tracked the construction of Imperial Starbase 47, otherwise known as Vanguard.
In the year 2267, he took the Constellation to meet with the ISS Enterprise, to sort out the issue of command of the latter starship following its mission to Halka. However, by the time the rendezvous took place, the issue had already been resolved with the death of James T. Kirk and Decker merely confirmed Spock as the new captain. (TOS comic: "Fragile Glass")
In 2277, under orders from Empress Hoshi Sato III, Decker led a fleet to the Terra Nova system in the hopes of ambushing and destroying the ISS Enterprise. When the Enterprise arrived in the system, Admiral Spock quickly surrendered and had himself beamed aboard the Constellation to hear the charges laid against him by Decker.
Unfortunately, Spock had managed to persuade the Constellation's first officer, Commander Hiromi Takeshewada, to lead a mutiny. Takeshewada assumed command of the Constellation after shooting Decker in revenge for all the taunts that he had made against her. Spock succeeded Decker as Grand Admiral.

“Dr. Inna is great! She is very calm, professional and takes the time to explain any question. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dentist!”
Types of Oral Surgery
Maxillofacial surgery is focused on the jaw and lower facial regions. This type of surgery is usually recommended by Dr. Chern if you have a misaligned jaw that causes issues with chewing or speaking. Additionally, this type of surgery can help alleviate TMJ disorders, relieving facial pain, headaches, and other symptoms of TMJ. This surgery can not only help your comfort, lifestyle, and oral health but can also improve your cosmetic appearance and function.
A common procedure performed by oral surgeons is tooth extraction. Extractions are usually necessary for resolving extensive decay, trauma, or overcrowding in the mouth. Removing diseased tissue restores the mouth to health and function and prevents further concerns from developing in the teeth or other oral tissues. Often, tooth extraction is performed in tandem with restorative treatments like implants or bridges to make sure your smile remains complete and you don’t experience negative side effects from gaps in your smile.
Dental implants are usually used to replace missing teeth. They work by placing a socket in the jawbone where a rod can be attached to support a fabricated tooth or bridge. The process is often performed under local anesthesia and requires several months of healing prior to final crown placement. Dental implants can restore your oral function and fill in missing gaps where teeth were lost or extracted.

Her Manhattan Team

Wisdom Teeth Removal
Although some people don’t experience any problems with their wisdom teeth, many people need them removed at some point. This is because they can cause concerns like crowding, shifting, problems with your bite, or even discomfort if the wisdom teeth aren’t removed within the right timeframe.
Bone grafting is a minor surgery where bone material from elsewhere on your body (or from another source) is deposited into the jaw to combat bone loss. Bone loss usually happens as a result of decay, but it may also be necessary to perform a bone grafting procedure onto the jaw in order to place implants.
This type of oral surgery is used to expose more of the tooth structure by reshaping the gum and bone tissue. This can have a lot of benefits including cosmetic (to address a gummy smile) or for certain restorative procedures.

There are varying levels of sedation ranging from conscious (awake) to general anesthesia (unconscious).
Can I be sedated for tooth extraction?

How long does it take conscious sedation to wear off?
Depending on the level of sedation, it can take several hours to pass completely through a patients system. To be sure, it is important to ask the treating dentist for specific post sedation timelines.
Is conscious sedation safer than general anesthesia?
Yes, conscious sedation is safer than general anesthesia because patients remain responsive and recover much faster.
What drugs are used for sedation?
Depending on the duration of the procedure, there are a variety of common sedative drugs which include ketamine, phenobarbital, lorazepam, propofol and fentanyl.
What is minimal sedation?
Minimal sedation is a level of anxiety relief where the majority of your senses are intact and you control your own breathing.
What kind of sedation is used for tooth extraction?

What sedation is used for dentistry?

You can expect to feel nothing at all or sluggish , drowsy and possibly nauseous. Side effects vary depending on the type of medication used and may differ between patients.
What should I do before dental sedation?

Will I feel any pain with dental sedation?
You may feel minor discomfort from the IV needle but otherwise there is no pain from the actual sedation.

The purpose of this exploratory study was to examine perspectives of experienced university faculty and cooperating teachers in general music education. The co-authors’ four guiding research questions were: (a) What are the ideal components of preservice general music teacher preparation; (b) What do cooperating teachers and university supervisors expect of preservice music teachers; (c) How may preservice general music teacher preparation be improved; and (d) What are the possible roadblocks and solutions for improving preservice music teacher preparation? For this case study, 11 university faculty and 19 cooperating teachers completed a researcher-designed, open-ended survey (N = 30). Using a downward coding process to identify diversity within the data, followed by upward coding to determine synthesis within the data, three themes emerged: enabling conditions, inhibiting conditions, and curriculum reorganization. Research questions (a) and (b) matched with enabling conditions, when present, and inhibiting conditions, when absent. Curricular reorganization responses matched with question (c), while inhibiting conditions and elements of curricular reorganization matched with question (d). The co-authors discuss implications of their findings for music teacher education and make recommendations for further research to extend this exploratory study.

My problem is I have almost zero free time. I have two young kids 3 and 2 when they where young my wife didn't want to let them fall asleep by themselves so now I take the 2 year old and my wife takes the 3 year old and we spend 1-2 hours per night putting them to sleep. Then after they are asleep my wife wants me to spend time with her watching mindless reality TV. Most of the time she passes out on the couch.
I'm asking when should have have some time not to watch TV but to take care of the things that are important to me. I need some time when I'm not exhausted to work on things around the house or doing some strategic planing for the group that I manage at work. We both work and I'm expected to take care of the dishes and do 90% of the meal planning (shopping,cooking,cleanup) To top it off my wife is a very picky eater and will only pick something to eat that day. I can't do any advanced planning. I also bring in 3 times the income she does and I'm required to be at work for 1.5 hours more per day than she is.
I don't know what a normal evening with young kids would be like ? After the kids are sleeping my wife is exhausted and her ideal evening is me rubbing her to sleep on the couch. Then I have to rub her to sleep again when we go up to bed. I really thing this is not balanced. I need some amount of time to just decompress. Also, each weekend I wake up with the kids and she sleeps in I'm just tired at this point.
I'm curious what the average evening is like ? | <urn:uuid:858d1525-0d2a-4353-90a7-33bce9096103> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://parenting.stackexchange.com/questions/7224/how-do-you-manage-free-time-when-you-have-kids | 2022-01-18T19:14:57Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320300997.67/warc/CC-MAIN-20220118182855-20220118212855-00318.warc.gz | en | 0.985104 | 350 |

Objective: The aim of this study was to describe challenges and strategies for coping with these challenges among individuals living in an institutional setting.
Method: This study used a qualitative approach to analyze the interviews of fourteen participants (11 males and 3 females) ages 10-24 residing in an Indonesian residential institution (orphanage and Muslim boarding school).
Results: Insufficient access to educational resources and basic necessities were major concerns of the participants, as was the residential institution's unresponsiveness and the lack of connection experienced by residents. Individuals coped with these challenges by turning to others for social support and by trying to change the focus of their thoughts, such as to more pleasant thoughts or simply to mentally disengage.
Conclusions: Some youths and young adults residing in institutions such as a residential institution demonstrate resilience at the individual level by utilizing coping strategies to address problems in obtaining adequate educational, material and psychological support. However, because inadequacies in these kinds of support ultimately impede psychosocial development, it is imperative to develop solutions for addressing these problems at the institutional and societal level rather than at the level of individual youths and young adults.

Researchers from the International Water Management Institute (IWMI) have been studying the link between gender and political restructuring, and how this influences water supply in two districts of Nepal. It was identified that despite new political structures, old mindsets prevail, but a more empowered younger generation could affect change. In Nepal, where only about 25% of water supply systems are fully functional, opportunities to provide a more equitable water supply are crucial.
Nepal established a federal government in 2015, bringing an end to an era of centralized rule. The new governance structure opens opportunities to eliminate disparities caused by class, caste and gender. Also, a new constitution calls for increased representation of women in politics, with mandatory quotas for the number of seats women must fill in government positions.
At the local level, these quotas extend to water user committees (WUCs), where 33% of all members must be women.
As a response to the poor functionality of community water systems in Nepal, the IWMI-led Water for Women project, funded by the Australian Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade (DFAT), aims to provide a gender perspective to understand and enhance the functionality of water supply systems. The gender quota has been a success at one level, with 40% of elected representatives of local government assemblies being women. However, the country still faces challenges in achieving gender equity, and is ranked 101 out of 153 in the World Economic Forum’s Global Gender Gap Index 2020.
According to a 2019 World Bank gender brief, women in the country face systemic barriers in areas such as employment, health, education and, despite the gender quota, participation in government. For instance, men hold the majority of high-level government positions, and women do not always receive training for their new roles. For rural water resources management, in particular, entrenched feudal mindsets and male-dominated attitudes at the community level continue to be key barriers to women’s meaningful participation and social inclusion.
A team of IWMI researchers undertook a survey of 600 households (298 men and 302 women respondents) across two districts (Dailekh and Sarlahi) in Nepal to understand how gender and power dynamics influence the functionality of community water systems in light of the country’s recent shift to federalism and the mandatory quotas for women in government positions.
Women often have limited time to get involved in decision-making on community water management
Since the early 1990s, rural water supply systems have been managed by WUCs, groups of community members meeting monthly to make decisions about local water management. However, in Dailekh and Sarlahi, WUCs are struggling. “In Dailekh, we found that out of seven committees, only one was functioning,” said Alok Rajouria, leader of the Water for Women project and a social science researcher based at IWMI’s office in Kathmandu. Other times, the committees do not have a written constitution or do not collect tariffs to maintain communal water sources.
Poor post-construction functionality of rural water supply systems is a common issue in many developing economies. When water supply systems do not function, women and marginalized communities struggle the most with insufficient access to water.
Despite the gender quotas, it is often difficult for women to get involved in the WUCs. Male out-migration, for instance, leaves women with multiple responsibilities, including household chores and agricultural activities. Women often have limited time to get involved in decision-making on community water management and be part of WUCs, which are run on a voluntary basis.
Caste intersects with gender to make women from Dalit castes face double discrimination. Male out-migration is particularly high among the Dalits in Dailekh, increasing time constraints on already socially and economically disadvantaged Dalit women, and significantly limiting their ability to join committees.
“What’s happening in the name of empowering women is you are heaping burdens on poor women who don’t have the agency to say no,” said Deepa Joshi, Gender, Youth and Inclusion (GYI) Lead Specialist at IWMI.
To make matters worse, when women do get involved, they are not always heard. Respondents reported that household heads, who are predominantly men, often make decisions for the women on the WUCs. Also, while the government policy directive to include 33% of women is generally fulfilled, it is often more out of compulsion or compliance than free will. Often, women involved in committees are passive audience members rather than active participants.
While women in Nepal’s government may not yet have much agency in political decisions, the trends may change with younger generations. In Sarlahi, IWMI researchers observed that, as participation in water management is slowly increasing among women, younger women are more outspoken and willing to participate.
However, along with generational change, there is the need for structural change as well. The political economy has transformed since the 1990s, when WUCs were perceived as the answer to effective and sustainable management of rural water supply systems.
Now, with high levels of migration of young people from villages, additional demands on women’s roles in the household and community, and increased income from remittances and higher productivity, participation and volunteerism among rural people is more a burden than an opportunity. Community-based water institutions must be designed to address challenges and foster meaningful participation of women in WUCs.
Looking ahead, IWMI researchers would like to work collaboratively with the SNV Netherlands Development Organisation in Nepal, as they develop capacity building, communication strategies and trainings to address the role of women in WUCs. IWMI’s findings may influence government policies around community water management. The time has come to consider alternate models of managing rural water supply systems. Testing new models taking into account three key players – the community, the state and the private sector – and the different roles and responsibilities they can fill may pave the way forward to make rural water supply systems more functional, equitable and inclusive. | <urn:uuid:96a57330-4f4f-4827-a75b-5dfc9d546063> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://smartwatermagazine.com/news/international-water-management-institute-iwmi/nepal-despite-political-empowerment-women-find | 2022-01-18T20:22:37Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320300997.67/warc/CC-MAIN-20220118182855-20220118212855-00318.warc.gz | en | 0.953295 | 1,243 |

Welcome from the Program Directors
Thank you for your interest in the Duke University Vascular Residency program, which we feel represents the most comprehensive exposure to clinical vascular surgery that you will find anywhere.
Our Division of Vascular Surgery has a very high volume of cases in all major areas of modern vascular surgical practice including open aortic reconstruction, branched aortic endografting, carotid endarterectomy and stenting, complex open and endovascular limb salvage, central venous reconstruction and vein ablation techniques, and treatment of arteriovenous malformations.
Our trainees are the center of our clinical practice and senior trainees run the Vascular Surgery services at the VA and the University Hospital. They far surpass the required number of cases in all categories and have a degree of autonomy that prepares our graduates for independent practice.
In addition, we have a collaborative relationship with a very strong General Surgery training program, which provides exposure to essential aspects of managing the perioperative care of surgical patients. We feel strongly that rotations in the ICU or on General Surgery services are not just “filler” but essential learning experiences for the modern vascular surgeon.

- About Us
Most people know or have an idea of what diabetes is, a disorder where the body doesn’t produce or utilize insulin properly, which causes blood sugar levels to become too high. Not everyone is aware that disease can also affect dogs and cats. As in people though, diabetes in dogs and cats can be treated.
What are some signs that your pet may have diabetes? The first signs you as an owner may notice are that your pet is drinking an excessive amount of water and urinating excessively. They may also be losing weight although they are eating normally or even eating more than usual. It is more common in older, overweight pets. As with most diseases, the earlier it is diagnosed the better the long term outcome. Your veterinarian will give your pet a thorough exam and run blood work and possibly a urinalysis to determine if diabetes is the cause. Left untreated, diabetes is fatal.
Although hearing that your pet is diabetic can be frightening, keep in mind that diabetes can be treated and many pets go on to live a normal, happy life. You will have a big part in the care and treatment of your pet though, so it’s good to have an idea of what will be involved in keeping your diabetic pet happy and healthy.
“Consistency” probably best describes what is involved in caring for a diabetic pet. Mealtimes, amount of food and treats fed, exercise and insulin injections will all need to be given at roughly the same time every day. The more consistent you are the better for your pet.
So what exactly is involved?
1. Diet-It’s important to feed a high quality diet to your diabetic pet. Your veterinarian may recommend a particular diet. It’s also important that you feed a consistent amount, at the same time every day. Most diabetics will need two meals a day, and are usually fed before being given their insulin injections. You also need to be careful not to give too many treats in between meals, as regulating your pet’s glucose (sugar) level is very dependent on how many calories it takes in. A wide fluctuation of calories can make it harder to regulate.
2. Exercise-Just as in providing consistent amounts of food is important, providing the same amount of exercise everyday is also important for keeping your pet’s glucose levels consistent. Strenuous exercise, especially for a pet that’s not accustomed to it, should be avoided.
3. Insulin-This is the part most owners dread. Yes, you will have to give your pet injections every day. Most people find that this is not as bad as they had feared it wou
ld be. Your veterinarian or vet tech will show you how to draw up and administer the injections. If you have any questions be sure to ask! There are ways you can make this easier for you and your pet. Having someone else to hold your pet when you’re first learning how can help. They can often give a small treat to distract your pet while you give them the injection. If given extra attention or a special treat, many pets will not even notice the injection as the needle used is very small.
There are a few other things you should know. When your pet is first diagnosed, it will usually have to stay at the hospital to have what is known as a “glucose curve” done. This is how your veterinarian finds out how much insulin your pet will need. For the first month or two, you will probably have to make a weekly trip to the vet so that we can monitor its glucose levels to see how it is responding to treatment. It’s not uncommon for the amount of insulin given to be adjusted over the first couple of months till we find the right amount for your pet. After that, if your pet is responding well to treatment, the amount of time between glucose checks can be lengthened. Your vet will also go over the signs of hypoglycemia, or low blood sugar, some of which are lethargy, confusion, loss of coordination and vomiting. Hypoglycemia can be very serious if it occurs. Keeping a bottle of corn syrup on hand, that you can use to spoon into your pet, or rub on his gums if he is unconscious is a good idea. If your pet becomes ill, especially if it is not eating, you should have it checked right away. Illness can affect insulin levels, so it’s important to have your pet seen promptly.
As with any medical issue or disease that involves your pet we are here to help. Learning to care for your diabetic pet can seem overwhelming at first, so you may want to write down any questions you have to be sure you get all the answers you need. Commitment is needed, but diabetes can be treated, and the level of care you give your pet can be very rewarding in the long run for both of you. | <urn:uuid:2284b3a9-c426-4f77-bf96-aff83f5cd2ac> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://troyanimalhospital.com/2012/01/09/diabetes-in-dogs-and-cats/ | 2022-01-18T19:47:05Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320300997.67/warc/CC-MAIN-20220118182855-20220118212855-00318.warc.gz | en | 0.964485 | 1,025 |
Most buyers looking at acquiring on-market businesses start out with a healthy dose of excitement and enthusiasm. Particularly when you think you have ‘hit the jackpot’ and find the perfect match. However, just like with all match-making, the more you look under the surface, the more complex the picture. First impressions rarely last long. Even the most optimistic of business buyers will experience many frustrations in attempting to acquire a business for sale.
This article explores a number of problems with acquiring on-market and gives you some tips on how to tackle them.
The reason why most businesses struggle to sell is that many are not really saleable in the first place. The underlying motivation is often exasperation as owners reach their energy ceiling.
The challenge for the business buyer is that, from the outside, it can be difficult to spot this problem. Sale advisers train vendors to paint their business in a most favourable light. They develop a carefully prepared narrative of their reasons for selling their company, and avoid answering difficult questions directly.
Buyers should be cautious! Don’t take everything you are told about the reasons for a business sale at face value. Ask questions, scrutinise, particularly when business growth has stalled, or is even reducing. You should always have a credible reason for why the vendor wants to sell. If you don’t, then walk away.
On-market vendors with sale advisers or brokers have another common disease: overvaluation! Exuberant sale advisers often inflate valuation to secure client signatures, and therefore the first number you are often told is way above the market value of the company in question. The challenge here is that this has become the clients’ expectation.
A more pragmatic valuation, however reasonable, can be a rude awakening for the vendor. It can be considered insulting and even be rejected immediately. In some cases, it may scupper any chance of further dialogue on a deal. The vendor is unlikely to form a favourable view of a lower offer from a buyer unless the buyer is able to provide justification for their belief that the business is overvalued.
Flawed valuations require a fine-tooth comb to isolate the cause of the inflated valuation. Then follows a careful process of dialogue with the advisor, or vendor, to try to challenge some of the projections, multiples or assumptions. It’s a tough balancing act.
Sale adviser or brokers are meant to make the process of buying a business easier, but this is not always the case. At times they can slow the process, and occasionally impede genuine expressions of interest or offers.
It is important to first understand that they represent the business seller. However polite they are, the aim is to achieve a deal being at the highest possible figure. Not only because of optimistic valuation but also because they are paid commissions which are a percentage of the sale price.
Therefore it is not unusual for them to engage in disruptive tactics for the benefit of their client, such as creating competitive bids that don’t exist, giving false deadlines and ultimatums, taking time to share financial information and not giving clear answers to direct questions.
Most see this activity as part of their role to realise value for their client, but experiencing it from the business buyers’ side can be immensely frustrating.
Therefore is it any wonder that 90% of people looking to buy a business never completed a deal? When you consider the challenges of on market corporate search work it’s not hard to understand why.
When acquirers find an ideal target it’s often a ‘sweetheart’ deal, where there is only one buyer and one seller. Most buyers contacting us with a sweetheart deal, however promising it seemed, see the deal fall through during due diligence. This can be for a host of reasons: another party becomes interested, the financials supplied were obfuscated to help the company sell, or the business performance has dropped because the owner has taken their eye off the ball.
Whatever the situation, with only 2% of businesses in the UK listed for sale there are slim pickings for those acquiring on-market. Buyers end up fighting over scraps.
Most business buyers don’t realise one important fact. One in three current business owners, when approached, would be willing to discuss the sale of their company. That’s right, businesses not for sale (normally termed ‘off market’) are actually for sale, and there are further benefits:
Looking off-market opens up the opportunity to reach the 98% of businesses that no one else is speaking to. By actively researching and finding more precise business targets buyers end up with many more options. Giving you more alternatives, better matches, and ultimately putting you in a stronger negotiating position.
Being in direct contact with business owners allows the acquirer to have direct dialogue with the vendor. This means that many of the headaches with acquiring on-market: overvaluations, negotiation subterfuge, lack of clarity and clear answers to direct questions, are not present in these conversations. It is much easier to get to a firm decision, either way and the overall process has much greater transparency.
It’s refreshing when in a direct dialogue with another business owner, things move quickly. Valuation is a joint effort. They will often answer questions more efficiently, without vetting, and financials are more complete with a more honest dialogue about the future. Without the pressure of immediate financial gain, it leads to a smoother transfer of responsibility.
Unloq helps business owners and entrepreneurs alike find, reach, analyse, negotiate with and acquire the 98% of businesses that aren’t listed for sale. Our off-market acquisition searches will help you find great opportunities and acquire them on favourable terms.

Florida Could Steer Drug Offenders To Diversion, Not Prison
A bill that would steer more Florida drug offenders to diversion programs rather than prisons is moving forward.
The House Criminal Justice Subcommittee unanimously approved the bill Tuesday that would change sentencing guidelines for drug possession convictions.
The bill sponsored by Democratic Rep. Sean Shaw would apply only to possession charges and not to manufacturing, selling or delivering controlled substances.
It would take effect in October and not be applied retroactively.
A legislative study showed it would save the state nearly $131 million over the next five years by reducing the number of prison beds by more than 1,000.

Authorities have charged three adults for their part in shaving a 12-year-old boy’s head to read “gay” then posting a video of the verbal and physical assault on social media, the City of Atlanta Police Department announced on Saturday.
In a Facebook post, authorities said on June 17 that investigators were able to identify the location of where the incident occurred and identify the child and parties involved.
The boy was taken into child protective services and is believed to still be there.
Now authorities have said they’ve secured warrants against those involved in the assault and arrested three.
“The behavior in this social media post was difficult to watch and is absolutely unacceptable,” authorities said in the post. “We are appreciative of the number of people who flagged this case with us and for those who provided information on the location where it took place.
“Our investigators worked hard to identify those involved and to gather the evidence needed to place each behind bars and we are thankful for their work.”
Investigators charged Lorkeyla Jamia Spencer, 19, and Brittney Monique, 35, each with cruelty to children. Jordan Jarrode Richards-Nwankwo was charged with cruelty to children and family violence.
Thousands shared the video of the boy being abused by his family members.
“This was a difficult video to watch,” said Atlanta Police Sgt. John Chafee, according to CBS46. “I have a child and when you see a young person being abused like this, I mean this is just so unnecessary. It was difficult to watch, and I think for a lot of the investigators, it was the same way.” | <urn:uuid:5493f624-4f92-4e5c-b3b7-122bb2675d4f> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://www.advocate.com/news/2021/7/17/three-arrested-over-shaving-gay-boys-head-viral-video | 2022-01-18T19:42:36Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320300997.67/warc/CC-MAIN-20220118182855-20220118212855-00318.warc.gz | en | 0.98159 | 351 |

After discovering the crazy and liberating world of EDM at EDC Vegas last year, I was alarmed to learn that someone died at that festival and many more ended up in critical condition. A quick Google search for “people dying at music festivals” yielded more reports that made EDC look tame. Many festivals have been home to multiple deaths, typically resulting from drug overdoses combined with the crowded, hot, high-energy environments these events foster.
Yet few of the articles I read offered any advice beyond the usual “don’t do drugs, kids!” and the festivals didn’t provide any information either. The website for Time Warp, one of Germany’s biggest EDM festivals, includes no guidance regarding drug use other than, “Say no to drugs. Please stay away from drugs. We want to have a ‘clean’ party!” — a warning more fitting for a middle school DARE class than adults attending an event that runs from 7:30 p.m. on a Saturday to 2 p.m. on a Sunday. The “health and wellness” page for Insomniac, the tour promoter behind dozens of EDM events including EDC, reads, “Insomniac institutes a zero-tolerance drug policy at all of its events — end of story.”
But the reality is, that’s not the end of the story. One in 25 Americans ages 18-25 has used MDMA over the past year, according to the Drug Policy Alliance, and that number is likely far higher among ravers. A March 2015 DrugAbuse.com study found that over 25,605 Instagram posts about 15 popular music festivals mentioned MDMA, 9,705 mentioned weed, and 4,779 mentioned cocaine. In total, over 40,000 posts about EDC alone mentioned drugs.
Festivals are starting to recognize this: Last year, the Secret Garden Party in Cambridgeshire, England became the first to offer on-site drug testing. And on Friday, March 31, DanceSafe—an organization that promotes safer raving—held the world’s first International Day of Drug Checking to teach people how to reduce the risks of party drugs. This is especially important amid several recent reports of young women dying after taking ecstasy, coke, and ketamine.
To learn how to be as safe and healthy as possible at music festivals, whether we’re high or sober, I got in touch with DanceSafe’s Director of Programs Kristin Karas. Here are some tips she gave for taking care of yourself and those around you.
1. Test your drugs
Many drug-related deaths result from unknown substances mixed in. To make sure you’re getting what you asked for, consider investing in a home reagent kit. These won’t tell you your drugs’ purity, but they will reveal what’s in there.
2. Control your doses
When you’re high, everything can seem like a good idea, including getting higher. To avoid this spiral, research how much of your chosen drug you should take in advance, and pledge not to exceed it. If you don’t know exactly how much you’re getting (which you usually don’t), take less than you would otherwise. And if you’re not feeling the effects you’d like as soon as you expected, wait it out. People often make this mistake with weed edibles, says Karas, which can take up to two hours to kick in.
In the case of MDMA, RollSafe recommends never exceeding 125 mg at a time, and that’s an absolute maximum. For women or newbies, that number’s going to be lower. RollingPro recommends 60-90 mg at most for smaller or more sensitive people. For reference, the average ecstasy pill has 75-100 mg, and many find that half a pill is plenty. If you’re not sure how much you’ll need to see an effect, start off with a small amount, see how you’re feeling an hour later, and take more if needed (but question your initial impulse, which will probably be to take it). And avoid taking more than one drug at a time.
Between the sun and the dancing, music festivals can leave you parched even without drugs. Add in MDMA, and you’ll end up dehydrated while losing the sensation of thirst. A lot of festivals have hydrating stations, so bring a water bottle and fill it up regularly. But water alone isn’t enough. Since you’re also losing salt and retaining more water than you normally would, balance your electrolytes with sports drinks, juice, or snacks to avoid hyponatraemia (dangerously low blood sodium levels) or cerebral edema (swelling of the brain cells). Remember: just because you’re high doesn’t mean you don’t need to eat or drink.
4. Take breaks
5. Wear earplugs
Another health risk people don’t always talk about is hearing damage, says Karas. Some festivals have such loud noise levels, they can do their damage in just a few seconds, according to DanceSafe. A study last year found that festival-goers who wore earplugs were able to hear better after the event than those who went without, so stash a pair in your bag to safeguard your ears, and try to stay away from speakers.
6. Be aware of your surroundings
Additional potential causes of deaths and injuries at music festivals include getting hit by cars, getting crushed in crowds, and other accidents you can help prevent through vigilance. Stick with a friend or group so you can look out for one another, especially if you’ll be high.
7. Learn what resources are on the festival grounds
Some festivals have peer security teams and sanctuaries to help people experiencing medical problems. Consult your festival brochure, map, or website beforehand to figure out what to do in the case of an emergency.
8. Get help if you don’t feel good
Take any physical discomfort or incapacitation you start to feel during the festival seriously. “Signs that something is wrong and you should seek medical attention include difficulty breathing, seizure, loss of consciousness, rapidly increasing body temperature, rapid or irregular heartbeat, signs of head injury, confusion, chest or abdominal pain, fainting, and signs of severe dehydration or heatstroke,” says Karas. “Signs of heatstroke include altered states of behavior, lack of sweating in a hot environment, nausea, vomiting, and headache.” If you experience any of these and can’t get to the festival’s sanctuary right away, call 911. Don’t try to save your ass — tell them if you’ve taken anything. After you recover, you’ll want to avoid partying hard or getting too much heat for the next few months.
9. Look out for those around you
Part of the magic of music festivals is that for that day or weekend, you’re a family. And that means looking out for one another. If you notice any signs of heatstroke in a fellow attendee, call an ambulance or the festival’s medical team, take them somewhere as cool as possible — even if it means leaving the festival grounds — pour water over them, fan them, give them dry clothes or a blanket, and give them a sports drink or water mixed with salt. Let the medical professionals know what they’ve ingested, and make sure they get to the hospital.
During EDC last year, a cute guy I spontaneously made out with offered me his water bottle. Though I hadn’t felt thirsty, I suddenly found myself guzzling it like there was no tomorrow. Then, he put his hands on my shoulders and said with an entertained but concerned look in his eyes, “Stay hydrated.” At the time, I didn’t understand what he meant. Now, I do. I even carry my own water bottle to events – and offer it to anyone who lacks the information I have now. | <urn:uuid:86ed1710-63f2-4e9c-b1c4-9a0b6c9faf01> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://www.audiofemme.com/festival-safety-guide/ | 2022-01-18T18:54:04Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320300997.67/warc/CC-MAIN-20220118182855-20220118212855-00318.warc.gz | en | 0.948319 | 1,705 |
Lighting plays a vital role for a restaurant and has a strong influence on the entertainment of the customers. A correct illumination creates the right atmosphere to stimulate conversation and a relaxing atmosphere during lunch or dinner, inviting to extend the permanence in the venue.
On the other hand, a restaurant which is not properly illuminated does not convey a good impression and encourages to leave as quickly as possible. How to manage restaurant lighting to ensure an enjoyable sensation to clients, possibly instilling the desire to come back again?
Here are some ideas to illuminate a restaurant worth considering to valorize the venue and highlight all the positive qualities which certainly will not be forgotten by patrons, because they helped transforming dining into an enjoyable experience.
How to prepare a lighting plan for a restaurant
Firstly, it is paramount to underline that lighting is one of the key elements in restaurant design. Regretfully, there is no standard project which will fit every restaurant; therefore, lighting must be tailored to each venue, keeping in mind some crucial factors to create an optimal illumination.
In fact, a correct restaurant lighting design has to consider the furniture placement and the architecture of the spaces, in order to match their style and colors. Light should not be an additional element, instead it should be fully integrated with the building and in an harmonical relation with space.
For these reasons, architecture and lighting need to be combined in an optimal way, to valorize the environment and ensure the well-being of the client. If this goal has been reached, lighting will contribute to put the venue in the spotlight and consequently ensure its success.
Choosing the right lighting according to the type of restaurant
A primary rule in the choice of restaurant lighting is to adapt it to the type of venue which we want to launch or remodel. If it is a starred restaurant, lights will be obviously different from a family-owned restaurant.
Once this initial choice has been made, we can concentrate on the type of lamps to illuminate the restaurant and define their positioning. The ideal solution to have a perfect light in all the venues is to utilize different intensities of light, according to the atmosphere we want to create.
How to illuminate different indoor and outdoor restaurant spaces
The table must be illuminated in a different way from all the rest of the restaurant, which should have a diffused light, whereas areas like the cashier, the bar and food displays require a more focused lighting. It is important to remember that lighting should concur at hiding defects and highlight the most outstanding features of the restaurant, in order to make a positive impression in the mind of the clients.
The outside area must be correctly illuminated as well, because it represents the first impression for a restaurant. The outside area will be immediately noticed by customers and lighting will underline the curated appearance of the venue, strongly conveying a positive image.
The correct facade illumination will make sure that lights are guiding customers towards the entrance, making them perceive a special sense of welcome. All these details are fundamental to stand out from the competition and become recognized for excellence.
Which lamps to choose to illuminate a restaurant?
The choice of restaurant lamps must be done taking inspiration from the furniture, the architecture and the amplitude of spaces, in order to determine the most fitting dimensions. Developing a lighting project for a restaurant with design and pendant lamps is a splendid solution to create something truly unique.
Among design lamps we find pendants, table lamps, floor lamps, which are not only illuminating, but also decorating with their presence, like it happens with the Axolight creations, ideated from professional designers expressing their creativity.
As far as table lamps are concerned, a truly innovative product family is the cordless lamp Float, a rechargeable battery lamp designed by Mario Alessiani, a perfect solution to be used on a restaurant table.
Thanks to a central cavity, this aluminum battery lamp can be positioned over any kind of bottle (from a small one to a magnum). The table version has a stainless-steel pedestal and a soft touch dimmer/switch.
Among pendant lamps, we can find great examples of evocative installations like the Liaison collection, designed by Sara Moroni perfectly balancing three geometrical archetypes: sphere, cylinder and circle. These three elements are combined together in a structure which can feature a single pendant or more articulated multiple compositions.
The metal components, contributing to make this object light and elegant, are the result of an accurate artisan craftsmanship. Decorative and, at the same time, functional, the elements of this unique collection can create an evocative atmosphere in a venue like a restaurant, contributing to make its spaces elevated and suggestive.
Additionally, Kwic, designer by Serge and Robert Cornelissen, is one of the most peculiar floor lamps which we see as very suitable for a restaurant. The lamp resembles a droplet of mercury sliding on a surface and is composed by a delicate metal structure, a painted aluminum disc and a semi-spheric diffuser in blown glass, protecting the LED source. To make this collection truly unique, is the asymmetrical construction. | <urn:uuid:60b0e29e-9a03-4e11-a23f-20a7eb9fdd6a> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://www.axolight.us/how-to-manage-restaurant-lighting/ | 2022-01-18T20:06:59Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320300997.67/warc/CC-MAIN-20220118182855-20220118212855-00318.warc.gz | en | 0.934118 | 1,041 |

Maduro’s Top Court Halts Venezuela State Vote, Bars Candidate
(Bloomberg) -- Venezuela’s top court, stacked with loyalists of President Nicolas Maduro, halted the vote count process for governor in Barinas, while calling for a new election without the opposition candidate who was leading in the state long-controlled by the Chavez family.
The National Electoral Council will hold a new election in the state on Jan. 9, following a court ruling that the opposition’s Freddy Superlano was ineligible to run due to a previous ban. Superlano, who was leading with 37.6% when the counting was halted, said he didn’t know why he was banned, calling it blatant manipulation by the government.
“They control the institutions as they please. They are capable of manufacturing anything,” he said Tuesday, following a rally in Caracas in which he called for his supporters to protest on Dec. 4. “It is part of the lies that the dictatorship is willing to invent in order to prevent the popular will of the people.”
The abrupt intervention by the Supreme Court is a major stain on the Nov. 21 regional election process in which Maduro was attempting to regain some international legitimacy and relief from economic sanctions through a vote that could be deemed free and fair. A group of observers from the European Union, which monitored the elections for the first time in 15 years, had called into question the independence of the system, including the judiciary in a preliminary report.
“The regime resorted to all the classic mechanisms it uses to maintain control of territories at the expense of all else,” said Oswaldo Ramirez Colina, a political risk and electoral consult at Caracas-based ORC Consultores. “It decided against having fair elections that would have allowed the relaxation of some sanctions.”
The National Electoral Council did not respond to requests seeking comment.
In a surprise twist, the government’s candidate Argenis Chavez -- the brother of late leader Hugo Chavez and governor since 2017 -- said he would resign as governor and that the Socialist Party would select a new candidate for the Jan. 9 vote. The Chavez family hails from a small town in Barinas, a western, cattle-raising state considered the birthplace of the movement that bears their name. A family member has run the state for more than two decades.
Barinas has turned increasingly tense over the past week as Superlano supporters protested the delays. The government, in turn, sent troops to the capital city.
Opposition leader Juan Guaido said the situation in Barinas exposes the absence of separation of powers within the government. The development should prompt the myriad opposition parties to unite, he said, while calling for the issue to be included in a new round of political and economic negotiations in Mexico with the government.
On Tuesday, the E.U.’s foreign policy chief Josep Borrell defended the mission to Venezuela as the right choice. His comments came in response to Maduro, who claimed the E.U. observers were spying on the country and that the electoral process was “impeccable.”

How to grow Crocus Sativus
Crocus Sativus, also known as Saffron Crocus, has been cultivated and celebrated for over 2,000 years for its pretty purple flowers and highly prized stamens (saffron). The most expensive spice in the world and worth more than gold, it can take over 40,000 saffron crocus blooms to produce just 1lb of saffron spice. However, it is possible to grow crocus sativus and harvest the saffron for your own use. A year's worth of saffron can be obtained from planting just a couple dozen bulbs.
Planting Saffron Crocus bulbs:
Follow our simple step-by-step guide to planting saffron crocus bulbs:
- Crocus bulbs are planted In Autumn, before the ground freezes. Pick a sunny spot with good drainage Try for a soil with some organic matter that gets dry during the summer months
- Saffron Crocuses require a relatively deep hole, ideally around 10cm deep. drop the bulb in, and cover with soil. Make sure you place the bulb the right way up, crocus bulbs look like a little onion with a slightly pointy head and sometimes with wiry roots growing out of the underside. Plant with the pointy head / spike pointing up.
- Leave approximately 8cm between each bulb. If you are planting in containers, you can cluster them a little closer together.
- After planting, water well so that the soil above the bulbs settles.
- Crocus bulbs will flower in Spring. After the flowers die down, allow the plant to enjoy a rest period - there is no need to water much during this period. Leaves will also die back and at this point you can choose to tidy up the plant and remove the old leaves or just let nature take its course.
- Saffron crocus bulbs will flower very quickly, about 6-8 weeks after planting
- The best time to harvest the saffron spice is during the morning hours when the flower is fresh and the bloom is fully open. Use your fingers to pluck the stigmas from the blooms then preserve them for later cooking use by placing them in a warm location so that they can dry out. After the stigmas are dry, store them in a closed container to maintain their freshness. | <urn:uuid:06e94c19-c775-4985-bb7a-0654bd7800a4> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://www.dutchgrown.co.uk/blogs/the-dutchgrown-blog/growing-guides-how-to-grow-crocus-sativus-saffron-crocus | 2022-01-18T20:21:57Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320300997.67/warc/CC-MAIN-20220118182855-20220118212855-00318.warc.gz | en | 0.940531 | 499 |
HAVING wrecked the lives of Syria’s half a million Palestinian residents, Syria’s civil war has begun prising apart Palestinians over the border in Israel and the Palestinian territories, too. In Syria, the war has displaced 235,000 Palestinians and killed hundreds more as they take up arms on both sides of the conflict. But it has also intensified fractures in the Palestinian leadership, as the two camps—the nationalist Fatah movement whose stronghold lies in the West Bank, and Hamas, the Islamist movement which rules Gaza—back opposing sides.
While Fatah warns against turning on President Bashar Assad’s regime, lest he follow the example of Kuwait’s emir in 1991 and expel his long-integrated Palestinian population in revenge, Hamas leaders say they cannot stand with a dictator’s slaughter of his people. While Fatah officials have supported the Syrian regime in evicting rebels from Palestinian camps south of Damascus, the capital, their Hamas rivals have closed their Damascus headquarters, and sent fighters to join the rebels. The Assad regime “took the wrong option—they were wrong about their vision toward the conflict,” Khaled Meshaal, Hamas’s leader, told Foreign Policy in mid-May, a year after abandoning his base in Syria.
The visit to Gaza earlier this month of Sheikh Youssef Qaradawi, a Qatari-based Islamist cleric who has issued fatwas urging Muslims to join the armed uprising, only deepened the cleavage. Hamas police in the town of Khan Younis clubbed demonstrators waving portraits of Mr Assad, and arrested journalists covering the rally for al-Manar, the television station of Hizbullah, the Shia Lebanese party-cum-militia and a one-time Hamas ally which backs the Syrians regime.
Meanwhile, Assad supporters interrupted Easter celebrations in the Church of the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem, chanting their support of “God, Syria and Bashar alone”. As in Lebanon, many Palestinian Christians see Mr Assad as a protector of minorities, and share his fear of an ascendant Sunni majority which has precipitated a Christian flight in other parts of the Middle East.
Old loyalties die hard. Some Palestinians still look to Assad’s Syria as the region’s last bastion of secular Arab nationalism, and deem the rebellion a conspiracy cooked up by Gulf and Western powers. Sometimes the rift courses through families, pitting pro-Assad patriarchs against their revolutionary sons. Assad supporters also disrupted coverage of a rally marking the naqba, or Palestinian exodus in 1948, by Al Jazeera, the Qatari-owned television channel which has backed Syria's armed uprising.
Surveys reveal the depth of the divide. According to a poll by the University of Haifa, Israel's third-biggest city, more than one in four Arab-Israelis support the Assad regime, but confusion abounds. Some, like Azmi Bishara, a prominent Christian politician who fled Israel in 2007 amid allegations of espionage, have turned from defending to deploring Mr Assad; liberals have retracted initial support for the rebels, shocked by their Islamist radicalism and violence.
Palestinian supporters of the Syrian regime have called up talk-shows like Kalam Mubasher (Straight Talking) on Al-Shams, an Arabic radio station, to denounce rebels as stooges of al-Qaeda. “Shabiha,” replies the host accusingly, referring to them as members of Mr Assad’s militia. But such outspoken denunciation of Assad supporters is increasingly rare. Politicians avoid debating the issue in public, not least because many of the older leadership, particularly in the communist party, Hadash, appear to harbour sympathies for Mr Assad.
“Supporters of the revolution are very quiet, especially given that so many have been killed,” says Asad Ghanem, the Haifa University academic who conducted the poll. “Palestinians in Israel say they want more democracy in Israel so they should want more in Syria as well. But there’s no real action,” he laments. “Instead they just call the revolutionaries terrorists.” | <urn:uuid:ad2cc96b-cfce-4d63-8d3f-cd3fe0182a1c> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://www.economist.com/pomegranate/2013/05/24/the-difficulty-of-picking-sides | 2022-01-18T19:04:20Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320300997.67/warc/CC-MAIN-20220118182855-20220118212855-00318.warc.gz | en | 0.955663 | 861 |

Changes Pay Off For Pettersen
Much like Tiger, Pettersen doesn't wait for things to go wrong before making changes to get better.
KAPALUA, Hawaii (AP) -- After winning five times on the LPGA Tour last year, Suzann Pettersen switched her coach, equipment and caddie. She's also tweaking her swing and refining her short game.
All the changes haven't resulted in a victory yet, but that could change soon.
Pettersen shot a 4-under 68 for a one-stroke lead over Brittany Lang and Tracy Hanson heading into Friday's second round of the inaugural Kapalua LPGA Classic.
"My year? It's been great. It's been interesting," Pettersen said. "I've been kind of adding people to my team and kicking some people off. ... I've been playing great."
The 27-year-old Pettersen has shown she is unafraid to make changes, even when things are going right. But she believes her play isn't that much different from last year's breakout season, when she won five times, including the LPGA Championship.
"Last year, I played great and when I had a chance, I got it," she said. "This year, I had a chance, but I haven't got it. ... It's such a fine line of what kind of defines a great year, a good year (and) an average year."
This year, the Norwegian star is ranked No. 5 in the world and has seven top-10 finishes in 19 starts, including a runner-up finish at the Kraft Nabisco Championship.
She did win twice this year on the European tour.
"I know that if I'm patient and I play well, I'm capable of winning and that's the most important thing," she said.
She acknowledged changing coaches, Gary Gilchrist for David Leadbetter, in the middle of the season is not ideal.
"But I figured I would rather do it now than wait another six months, so that will probably benefit me the beginning of next year," Pettersen said.
After a relatively calm morning, Maui's trademark tradewinds picked up and kept the players from attacking the pine tree-lined Bay Course.
Only 19 of the 132 players were able to break par, including five from the afternoon.
"The wind is the only thing that can protect this course from the players, and if it stays like this, I would take four rounds at 4 under," said Pettersen, who took advantage of her early start time.
Despite the breezes, Pettersen made a move at the end, birdieing three of her final four holes. She hit a wedge to 3 feet on No. 8 and to 10 feet on the next hole.
"I like to play in the windy conditions because I like to create different shots," said Pettersen, who started the day on No. 10 and made the turn with two birdies.
Hanson aced the 165-yard No. 12, the most difficult hole, to match Lang at 69. Lang is coming off a fifth-place tie at the Longs Drugs Challenge. Australian rookie Anna Rawson was another stroke back along with Laura Diaz, Kristy McPherson, Ji Young Oh, Brandie Burton and Sun Young Yoo.
While Pettersen handled the winds of Kapalua, two other big names didn't fare as well.
Top-ranked Lorena Ochoa, seeking her eighth victory of the season, opened with a 74. She was paired with No. 2 Annika Sorenstam, who struggled to a 77.
It was an uncharacteristic round for Sorenstam, especially in Hawaii. She opened the season with a victory at Turtle Bay and finished fourth the following week at Ko Olina.
Sorenstam had trouble with her short game and navigating the fast and undulating greens. She had two double bogeys and two bogeys in a horrendous six-hole stretch to make the turn at 5 over.
The 72-time tour winner had just two birdies and dropped to near the bottom of the leaderboard at 6 over when she missed a 7-foot par putt on No. 13.
She'll have more favorable conditions Friday with an early tee time but will still require a better round to make it to the weekend. The last time she failed to make the cut was the 2006 Michelob ULTRA Open. | <urn:uuid:30266614-6170-4893-9ee0-a823d983169d> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://www.golfdigest.com/story/20081016kapalua | 2022-01-18T19:18:49Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320300997.67/warc/CC-MAIN-20220118182855-20220118212855-00318.warc.gz | en | 0.977728 | 941 |

A five-year-old boy was made to sit outside his headteacher’s office on his own at lunchtime after his school refused to accept dinner money from his mum.
Sheila Slater said her grandson Callum had been left upset and confused after the incident at Longmoor Community primary school in Walton.
The little boy’s family claimed he had been given only a barmcake and a glass of water - but the school today insisted he received the same lunch as other children and had a sandwich, ice cream and fruit.
Parents are asked to pay their child’s dinner money on a Friday for the following week - but Mrs Slater said the school had refused to accept the £9 payment from Callum’s mum Lesley when she tried to hand it in at the end of the school day, telling her she was too late.
She said parents had not been told there was a deadline for the money and the family was now considering moving Callum to another school.
The school today apologised for any upset caused.
Mrs Slater, 68, from Aintree, said: “It says in the school newsletter that the children’s dinner money has to be paid on a Friday but it doesn’t say what time.
“My daughter hadn’t forgotten all year but last Friday she forgot to take it in with her in the morning. When she went to pick him up at 3.30pm she went to the office but the headteacher said ‘you’re too late.’
“She said ‘it’s still Friday’ but she said it had to be in by lunchtime.”
Callum was allowed to have his school dinner as normal the following Monday because the school had closed for a staff strike the previous Thursday.
Mrs Slater said her daughter was reassured Callum would still be given his lunch for the week and would not be left on his own.
But the next day she discovered he had spent lunchtime on his own outside the headteacher’s room.
The school said the practice was to prevent children being embarrassed in front of other pupils if they did not have their usual lunch.
Mrs Slater said: “They gave him a brown barmcake and a glass of water. Callum was so upset and he was saying ‘what have I done?’
“When we took him to school the next day he kept saying ‘have I got to sit outside the headteacher’s room?’
“He’s only five so he’s not old enough to understand. He didn’t understand why he couldn’t sit with his best friend like he normally does.
“They just wouldn’t take the money off us. He was being punished for something he hasn’t done and we want to make sure it doesn’t happen to anyone else.”
A school spokesman said: “Pupils whose parents have forgotten to pay for school dinner are given a more basic packed lunch made up of a sandwich, a drink and a piece of fruit. To avoid embarrassment, pupils in this situation have their lunch away from other children.
“However, in this specific instance, due to a misunderstanding by a supply teacher, the child had the same lunch as every other pupil that day - a baguette, drink and a dessert.
“We have apologised to the parent and the child for any upset and confusion caused and taken steps to make sure the system for payment is communicated consistently in future.”

This looks fantastic! LoL Software has released the official Polaroid Digital Camera App for the iPhone and iPod touch.
Some of the features listed are 30 different official filters and colored borders so you can create a Polaroid effect. Within the app you can also upload images instantly to Facebook if you like that type of thing.
The app also supports the iOS 4.2 wireless AirPrint capability if you have a compatible printer. I think it would be pretty cool if the PoGo instant Photo Printer that fits into your pocket (a Polaroid product) was made compatible with the iPhone because that would be a total win-win situation!
The app also allows full resolution images to be stored to the photo library, and you can also share by e-mail.
The developers have also stated that you can suggest filters you’d like, and they will try to make a selection of them to include in future updates of the app. All you need to do is write your filter ideas in a review.
I haven’t had a chance to use this app yet, and there are already so many brilliant photography apps out there, but it looks like it is worth a try, and hopefully it will be worthy of that Polaroid label.

Is Mozart Beethoven’s teacher?
Mozart, who was working on “Don Giovanni” and was deeply worried for his fatally ill father, did not receive Beethoven, let alone give him lessons. When Beethoven returned to Vienna much later, Mozart was already dead.
Who did Mozart learn from?
Mozart was a child prodigy. His father —a talented violinist—taught him basic notes on the harpsichord. Mozart composed his first piece of music in 1761, at age five; by age six, he had performed before two imperial courts. In 1763 Mozart and his sister, Maria Anna (”Nannerl”), went on tour.
Who was Beethoven’s teacher after Mozart?
In particular, like Mozart, Beethoven early established a strong reputation as a keyboard performer, was mentored by Joseph Haydn, and was given patronage by Countess Maria Wilhelmine Thun.
Who taught Beethoven and Mozart?
While we don’t know for sure that Mozart and Beethoven ever met, we definitely do know that Haydn and Beethoven did. Haydn was one of the most important figures in Beethoven’s early career. It started on Boxing Day 1790, just 11 days after Haydn had said that sad farewell to Mozart.
Who killed Mozart?
But today Antonio Salieri is best remembered for something he probably didn’t do. He’s remembered for poisoning Mozart.
Who was a better pianist Beethoven or Mozart?
The results of the most recent survey were announced on Monday (28.03. 2016). With 16 of the 300 most popular works having come from his pen, Mozart remains a strong contender but ranks second after Ludwig van Beethoven, overtaking Amadeus with 19 of his works in the Top 300 and three in the Top 10.
What Really Killed Mozart?
He composed masterfully in every musical format. Operas, choral works, concertos, symphonies, chamber music, solo songs, sonatas … Mozart was one of the few composers in history to compose masterworks in every conceivable musical genre.
What age did Mozart die?
At 12:55 a.m., 225 years ago, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart drew his last breath. Later, he was unceremoniously buried in a common grave — as was the custom of his era — in the St. Marx cemetery, just outside the Vienna city limits. Mozart was only 35.
Who was the greatest composer ever?
Ludwig van Beethoven (1770–1827) The German composer and pianist Ludwig van Beethoven is widely regarded as the greatest composer who ever lived.
Why did Salieri kill Mozart?
In 1898, Rimsky-Korsakov turned Pushkin’s play into an opera. In both, it is suggested that Salieri’s jealousy of Mozart led him to poison the younger composer.
Did Mozart know Bach?
In 1764 Bach met with Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, who was aged eight at the time and had been brought to London by his father. Bach is widely regarded as having a strong influence on the young Mozart, with scholars such as Téodor de Wyzewa and Georges de Saint-Foix describing him as “The only, true teacher of Mozart”.
What would Mozart think of Beethoven?
He would have thought Beethoven’s late works works of profound genius, as, of course, they are — and a little bit strange as well, the consequence of Beethoven’s deafness leading him ever farther into a idealized world of harmony that didn’t completely correspond to real life. He’d have been completely baffled.
What did Mozart think of Haydn?
Mozart would affectionately address Haydn as “Papa,” and he used the less formal “du” form of speech in German, which would have been quite unusual considering the age gap between the two men. Their friendship was further affirmed in 1785 when Mozart dedicated his six “Haydn quartets” to his older friend.
Who taught Beethoven?
Born in Bonn, then the capital of the Electorate of Cologne and part of the Holy Roman Empire, Beethoven displayed his musical talents at an early age and was taught by his father Johann van Beethoven and by Christian Gottlob Neefe. | <urn:uuid:98c09def-f97c-49b9-812a-2d6954a472fc> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://www.mozart-tempi.net/mozart/question-who-is-mozart-teacher.html | 2022-01-18T20:29:50Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320300997.67/warc/CC-MAIN-20220118182855-20220118212855-00318.warc.gz | en | 0.971226 | 1,140 |

Senate Passes SB 705, Establishing Criminal Penalty for Fraudulent Social Networking Accounts
Contact Name: Sara Persechino
Phone: (603) 271-3479
CONCORD - Today, the Senate passed SB 705 to establish a criminal penalty for fraudulent impersonation or duplication of a social networking account.
After the vote, prime sponsor Senator Melanie Levesque (D-Brookline) issued the following statement:
“We are at a point in our history where online presence is taken into consideration as much as in person interaction. When someone utilizes social networking in a way that could be slanderous or damaging through duplication of an account, we are allowing them to essentially embody an individual’s identity without permission. We have seen this earlier this year in our own state politics and the fraudulent accounts were promptly removed. I look forward to SB 705’s continued passage through the House.” | <urn:uuid:ea1c9905-94f2-45cb-9fcc-f04609da8920> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://www.nhsenatedemocrats.org/single-post/2020/03/12/senate-passes-sb-705-establishing-criminal-penalty-for-fraudulent-social-networking-accou | 2022-01-18T19:03:09Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320300997.67/warc/CC-MAIN-20220118182855-20220118212855-00318.warc.gz | en | 0.904118 | 210 |
This country is in trouble, and only God and the power of prayer can save it from abortion, same-sex marriage and political correctness, according to evangelist Franklin Graham who visited Juneau Friday.
Graham, the son of famous Southern Baptist evangelist Billy Graham, led a prayer rally of about 500 people in Savikko Park Friday afternoon, calling participants to “honor God with (their) vote.”
“I’m not here to tell you who to vote for,” Graham said. “I’m running a campaign for God.”
Juneau marked the 32nd stop on Graham’s Decision America Tour 2016, a cross-country tour of state capitals. The goal of the tour: mobilizing the Christian vote. Though normally a fan of abstinence, Graham said he was disappointed that as many as 30 million Christians chose to abstain from the last presidential election.
He asked audience members, the majority of whom were waving small American flags, to pledge to pray “fervently and faithfully for America” and vote in every election — whether they are choosing a new mayor or a new president. Although the pledge, which nearly 90,000 people have signed nationwide, has many directives, one of the most crucial, Graham said, calls pledgees to consider running for office.
This is particularly important because Graham made it clear that he isn’t impressed with the options that will be on the ballot come November.
“I have no hope in the Democratic Party — zero,” Graham said, eliciting a hoots and hollers of approval from the crowd. “But before you Republicans high-five each other, I have zero hope in the Republican Party, too.”
And Graham isn’t alone. Daniel Brady, a rally-goer who described the event as “inspiring,” expressed a similar sentiment after Graham finished speaking.
“I just firmly believe that the solution to our problems is not in earthly systems,” Brady said. “We have to look upward.”
Still, Brady and Graham said that in order to get the United States back on what they see as the right path, Christians will need to get to the polls “even if you have to hold your nose,” Graham said during the rally.
Though most people at the rally seemed to completely in step with Graham’s message — as reported by regular shouts of “amen” and “hallelujah” from the crowd — there were some who struggled to get behind Graham entirely.
Michelle Strickler, a Christian who attended the rally, said she liked that Graham was trying to energize people to vote, but she disagreed with some of the finer points.
She sought out the Empire after the rally to make sure that people don’t get the impression that all Christians share Graham’s opposition of homosexuality and same-sex marriage
“Love is first and foremost in my heart, and I think I represent a bunch of Christians,” she said. “The main thing I want to say is if Jesus Christ was walking here today, he would have very good friends who were homosexual and heterosexual.”
The LGBTQ community was not the only group that Graham singled out during his prayer rally. He also spoke out against progressives, communists and atheists.
“Secularism is the same as communism; it’s godless,” he said, raising his voice. His words, amplified by loud speakers, echoed off the mountains. “Progressives are atheists. We have a progressive system — same as communism — that has come in and taken over our government.”
Sue Schrader, an atheist who attended the rally, said she was disheartened that Graham used such charged language.
“I was very concerned, as an atheist, for Franklin Graham to address me as the enemy,” she said. “I think that’s a very loaded word, and I don’t see how that could be seen as compassionate speech or moral speech, and there he was promoting those values.”
Schrader attended the rally wearing a colander on her head, a symbol of the Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster. Though the colander did little to keep her dry when it started raining about a quarter of the way through Graham’s speech, it did spark conversation, which was her intent. The colander was meant to be a statement, highlighting that no one religion is more legitimate than another, even Pastafarianism.
“That was my goal, to have a lighthearted attempt to raise some serious issues,” she said.
And the colander did its job. She said she spoke with several people at the rally, all of whom treated her with respect. Nobody, however, connected it to the Flying Spaghetti Monster.
Schrader said she and Graham split company when he “started labeling people,” but she’s happy anytime people hold a public rally to get out the vote. How informative the rally was for voters, however, she wasn’t sure.
Although Graham said several times that he wasn’t telling people who to vote for, it seemed fitting that he kicked off and concluded the rally reading scripture about Nehemiah, a man who built a wall. | <urn:uuid:101589ae-99fb-4ab8-a1ef-5995f31c3376> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://www.peninsulaclarion.com/news/franklin-graham-holds-prayer-rally-in-juenau/ | 2022-01-18T20:22:56Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320300997.67/warc/CC-MAIN-20220118182855-20220118212855-00318.warc.gz | en | 0.977782 | 1,124 |

Beneath a dozen eggs and some carrots with sprawling greens lay some of the most delicious pumpkin chocolate chip cookies I have ever tasted. The Chocolate Spoon was the last stop on my list this past Saturday, and the farmers’ market crowd was beginning to swell. Once the cookies were safely tucked away in my basket, I headed for my car.
Indulging in a sweet treat has become a part of my Wednesday or Saturday shopping ritual – a reward for working hard all week. The rewards vary. Last week, it was applesauce from Saratoga Apple. The apples, slowly and gently cooked, have the perfect chunky consistency and balance of sweetness and tart. With no sugar added, I felt like I was doing something good for myself. The week before that, my treat was Mrs. London’s famous buttery almond croissant. And, the week before that, I fondly recall rich, creamy chocolate milk from Battenkill Valley Creamery.
Whatever farmers’ market sweets I choose to indulge in, they are always fresh, delicious, and an ode to quality, local ingredients. Perhaps that’s why they have become my shopping tradition. And, they are treats that I don’t have to spend hours in the kitchen preparing myself.
Market sweets come in a variety of sizes to accommodate any desire or occasion. Satisfy a small craving with a honey stick from Slate Valley Farms or personal-sized Sweet Greek yogurt from Argyle Cheese Farmer. Looking for a larger quantity to share? Perhaps a pie from The Food Florist or cheesecake from Grandma Apples Cheesecakes. Tiramisu from Giovanni Fresco is some of the best you’ll try, and baklava from Euro Delicacies is authentic and sweetened with local honey. Dickinson’s Delights’ Nutella crepes are filled with seasonal fruit and make for a decadent and gooey dessert that could be eaten for breakfast.
Looking for gluten-free or dairy-free options? Farmers’ market vendors have those too.
What about the unique chocolate craving that we all succumb to? Saratoga Chocolate Company has a variety of handmade cocoa creations to satisfy that specific desire that must be met.
The next time you’re shopping at the farmer’s market, make time for something on the sweeter side. You’ll be glad you did.
For this week’s recipe, I leave you with chocolate chip zucchini muffins. They are cake-like, sweet, and satisfying with a healthy touch. | <urn:uuid:8f1fbb5c-3e2c-42fe-9fd7-06ccfef307d6> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://www.saratogafarmersmarket.org/exploring-the-sweet-side-of-the-farmers-market/ | 2022-01-18T19:22:36Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320300997.67/warc/CC-MAIN-20220118182855-20220118212855-00318.warc.gz | en | 0.950867 | 539 |
The idea for South Fork Malthouse originally came from selling strawberries from our family farm to Country Boy Brewing. Whether it was a Strawberry Wild Ale, a Strawberry Saison, or a Strawberry Gose, I realized that the success of these beers had a lot to do with the high quality fresh strawberries, the consumer support of locally sourced ingredients, and clearly the skills of the brewers that made it! With that in mind I began to think of other ingredients that could be locally sourced and stumbled across the fact that the only other ingredient that brewers and distillers couldn't get locally was malted grain. Malted barley in particular, is by volume (excluding water) the main ingredient in beer and key ingredient in bourbon.
A little history about the malting industry helps to explain how we got to where we are today with grain that's often grown and malted many states away, or imported from different countries. Before prohibition many small towns with a brewery or distillery had a local malthouse and local farmers to supply their grain. With prohibition decimating local breweries and distilleries it naturally followed that the supply chain of small malthouses and locally grown grain also collapsed. The malthouses that emerged from prohibition consolidated over time and now resemble the big beer industry with a handful of large corporations controlling more than 95% of the malt market. At South Fork Malthouse we are working with Kentucky farmers to rebuild the local grain supply chain so that breweries, distilleries, and ultimately customers can explore the unique flavors of local malt one small batch at a time!
South Fork Malthouse sources all our grain from local Kentucky farmers within a 250 mile radius of the malthouse.
Farming can be rewarding, tough, and a little risky! At South Fork Malthouse we pay a premium price for the malt quality grain we receive because we believe farmers should be fairly compensated for the risk, hard work, and high quality grain they consistently provide us. Consider this, when you support us, your customers get the opportunity to support three local businesses [Your Brewery/Distillery+South Fork Malthouse+Local Farmers]. The farms we source our grain from and breweries and distilleries we sell to are all a short drive away, with less time in transit and miles traveled our malt is delivered fresh with a low environmental/carbon impact.
Walnut Grove Farms - Is a family farm based in the community of Schochoh, KY (Logan County), 50 miles north of Nashville, TN. The farm is currently managed by the 5th and 6th generation of the Halcomb family. We are proud to partner with Walnut Grove Farms because we know family farms take pride in the crops they produce and they take care of the land they work.
Caseland Farms - Is the Case family farm located in Cynthiana, KY (Harrison County). Our family has a long tradition of farming that traces back (at least) eight generations. My dad (Russell "Butch" Case) believes in being a good steward of the land, takes pride in his work, he loves farming, and has done so for over 50 years. When I'm not in the malthouse you can find me on the farm working alongside him (and if I'm lucky sometimes I'm able to steal him away from the farm to help bag malt).

My initial training in malting started with reading every book on the subject I could find, along with some rudimentary home experiments. When I realized that malting was more than a hobby, I decided to get formal training and flew to Winnipeg, Canada to take a malting course at the Canadian Malting Barley Technical Center. I later followed-up that training with a course in Advanced Craft Malt Technology though Hartwick College. As a member of the Craft Malt Guild, I continue my education through videos, webinars, and attending the annual craft malt conference. | <urn:uuid:d61a3b41-3348-445a-b749-533d4baa5b01> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://www.southforkmalthouse.com/about-us | 2022-01-18T20:00:18Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320300997.67/warc/CC-MAIN-20220118182855-20220118212855-00318.warc.gz | en | 0.960149 | 825 |
Every now and then, we pull back the curtain and give our friends a look behind the scenes at Square 2 Marketing. Today is one of those days. This month there is a very good chance our company will hit a milestone: 6,000 website visitors in a single month.
This might not seem like a lot, but last January we had 4,000 and the January before that we had 400. So, while the growth has slowed, it is still substantial and it is record setting.
We thought we would share with you some of the tactics we’ve employed over the past year to deliver this 50% growth in website traffic. While this list certainly doesn't encompass everything we do here at Square 2 Marketing, it does represent a cros-section of the tactics that contributed to our increase in traffic over the past two years.
Onsite SEO – Last January, we selected a handful of highly searched keywords and keywords with reasonable difficulty ratings. The reason we look at both these factors is that we don’t want to just try to optimize on a few keywords that are going to be extremely difficult. This would have retarded our progress and limited our improvements. So we focused on a portfolio of keywords and worked on them all consistently over the course of the year. We added keyword-optimimized pages to our website design, we added educational content with these keywords, we focused on including those keywords in our blog posts and the result has been a 100% improvement in organic traffic over the past 12 months.
Off-Page SEO – Last January we also started aggressively guest blogging and posting our educational materials on other sites frequented by our target prospects. The result was links back to our site from highly respected website properties like Fast Company, MarketingProfs, Vistage and a few other sites. This contributed to a 50% increase in traffic from referring sites.
Blogging – We mentioned blogging in both the Onsite and Offsite SEO sections of this post, but blogging might be one of the most important tactics to increasing website traffic. Every time you write and post a new blog you are adding another indexable page to your site and another link (or linkis) back to an existing page on your site. Google is looking specifically for websites with fresh content and by adding a new blog post to your site regularly you are fulfilling that requirement. Blogging helps in so many areas that it can no longer be ignored by business owners, CEOs and marketing professionals.
Email marketing – Over the years, we have collected over 13,000 targeted email addresses. Every time we email our fans, we drive additional traffic to our website. While this isn’t a huge portion of our traffic and a lot of these visitors are repeat visitors, we typically see a modest bump in new visitors as a result of our regular email campaign.
Event marketing both online and off-line – Again, not one of the biggest boosters of online traffic, but our regular event schedule of webinars and public speaking workshops funnels a consistent stream of new people to our site who are eager to learn more about what we do.
Video marketing – This has caught on as a major traffic driving tactic over the course of the last few years. People love video! Video is on so many other sites. The traffic from our video content is some of our best performing content. When we create the videos, we keep our keywords in mind during script creation because Google is now scraping audio files and ranking video based on the audio.
Video Search Engine Optimization – Perhaps even more important than the video is what we do with it after it’s been recorded. Our video SEO efforts have resulted in a significant amount of additional traffic as Google places an emphasis on ranking video assets. Our team takes our search optimized videos and places them on a variety of video sharing websites with the proper tags, descriptions, and keywords. The result is often virtually instant search rankings further driving up organic results.
Social media marketing – If you follow the "Get Found" philosophy above the "Get On The First Page of Google" approach, then you don’t care where your prospects find you—as long as they find you. This is where social media marketing is so strong. With millions of people on social media looking for businesses just like ours, we have doubled our efforts here over the past few months and seen significant improvements. Back in July of 2012, we drove 125 visitors a month to our site from social media. Today, we drive over 750 visitors a month to our site.
Did this happen overnight? No! I hope you can see from the data and the insights above that true inbound marketing program performance builds over time. It happens ONLY when you have a commitment to inbound marketing AND ALL THE TACTICS required to drive program performance. This can be a complicated process but there are people who know how to do it, have done it before and who can help you do it for your business.
Start Today Tip – What gets measured, gets done. Start by establishing some basic benchmarks. Average website traffic over the past 12 months. Use that as your target and look to add 10% each month over the course of 2013. If you had 400 visitors like we did then by the end of the year you would be looking at almost 1,000 monthly visitors. Add on to that the standard 1% conversion rate and you are looking at a website that kicked out 10 new leads every single month. Not too bad.

Christopher Tappin, 66, of Orpington, Kent, had denied conspiring to sell batteries for Iranian missiles but, as expected, changed his plea on one count of aiding and abetting the illegal export of defence articles at a hearing in El Paso, Texas, yesterday in an agreement with US prosecutors.
It had been thought he faced up to 35 years in jail if found guilty, but his plea calls for a 33-month sentence which prosecutors have said they will not oppose him serving in the UK.
His wife Elaine, 62, said yesterday that “however upsetting” the plea deal was, it marked the beginning of his “swift and safe return” to the UK. US District Judge David Briones will sentence Tappin on January 9.
Tappin’s US lawyer Dan Cogdell said he expected him to serve several months in a US prison while authorities in Washington and the UK decide whether to extradite him.
The former president of the Kent Golf Union has previously denied attempting to sell batteries for surface-to-air missiles which were to be shipped from the US to Tehran via the Netherlands, claiming he was the victim of an FBI sting.
The case followed an investigation which started in 2005 when US agents asked technology providers about buyers who might have raised red flags. Those customers were then approached by undercover companies set up by government agencies.
A spokesman for the US attorney’s office in the western district of Texas said Tappin admitted that between December 2005 and January 2007, he knowingly aided and abetted others in an illegal attempt to export zinc/silver oxide reserve batteries, a special component of the Hawk Air Defence Missile, to Iran.
According to the plea agreement, which is pending approval by Judge Briones, Tappin faces a fine of $11,357.14 (£7,044) along with the prison sentence.
By pleading guilty, he waives his right to appeal his conviction or challenge the sentence handed down in this case, the spokesman said.
Two other men have already been sentenced in connection with the case.
Briton Robert Gibson, an associate of Tappin who agreed to co-operate, was jailed for 24 months after pleading guilty to conspiracy to export defence articles.
Gibson provided customs agents with about 16,000 computer files and emails indicating he and Tappin had long-standing commercial ties with Iranian customers.
American Robert Caldwell was also found guilty of aiding and abetting the illegal transport of defence articles and served 20 months in prison.
Plea bargaining is common in the US, with defendants often able to secure a more lenient sentence if they admit an offence and co-operate with prosecutors, rather than contest the charges in a trial.
Tappin’s UK lawyer, Karen Todner, who also represented computer hacker Gary McKinnon in his successful 10-year fight against extradition, said 98 per cent of people who enter the US justice system agree a plea deal.
Cogdell, however, said he didn’t see much room for argument and pleaded guilty “because he was guilty”.
“He regrets his conduct, he regrets the time away from his family, he regrets the notoriety,” the attorney added.
Tappin was extradited in February after losing a two-year legal fight.
He then spent 23 hours a day locked in a cell at the Otero County detention centre in New Mexico before being set free after his family paid $50,000 (£31,026) of a $1m (£620,527) bond, and moved to a flat in Houston, Texas.
Mrs Tappin, said: “My overwhelming feeling remains one of anxiety and sadness.
“However at last I dare hope that Chris will be back on home soil next year.
“I feel we are getting to the beginning of the end.
“It has been a very difficult time for us all and one that would have been infinitely harder had we not received such warm support from friends and strangers alike. For that I shall always remain extremely grateful.” | <urn:uuid:dae95a91-adf8-4b48-8c48-810a6ae53b02> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://www.yorkshirepost.co.uk/news/british-man-jailed-over-battery-sales-iran-us-plea-bargain-1879103 | 2022-01-18T20:56:28Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320300997.67/warc/CC-MAIN-20220118182855-20220118212855-00318.warc.gz | en | 0.979715 | 860 |

CHICAGO -- The longer the COVID-19 pandemic lasts, the more mask and gloves we see on the streets. So one community-based group in Chicago is doing something about it.
"We're a neighborhood organization really trying to green the community and make life more sustainable," said Renee Patten, a member of the Edgewater Environmental Sustainability Project. "We want to be better stewards of the earth."
At least once a month, members of the project go out on their blocks and pick up the litter they see-- whether it be plastic bags, straws, face masks or gloves.
"The gloves especially, the fear of that is that they'll get in waterways, the lake, our rivers and do a lot of damage to wildlife. Whenever I see gloves on the ground it just breaks my heart," Patten said.
"Our organization has declared a climate emergency," Nine Newhouser added. "We are living in tough times and it's really beneficial to get together to try a make a difference, as little as we can."
The project's goal is to beautify their neighborhood, as well as encourage sustainable living.
"It's not about making people feel guilty, it's about collective action and seeing what we can do with everyone doing what they can," George Tully said.

Since this property has received funding in part through the Low Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) program, a certain number of units are set aside for lower income households. Households must earn either less than 50% or 60% of the area median income (depending on the set-aside option chosen by the property owner) to qualify for these units. Rents in these units are capped at a maximum of 30% of the set-aside area median income (adjusted for unit size). Some rental units in this property may not be subject to LIHTC and therefore have higher rents and no maximum household income requirement.
Generally, households earning up to the income limit in the table below for their household size are eligible for units participating in the Low-Income Housing Tax Credit program in New York City but actual income limits may differ for units at Linden Plaza Preservation.

Capturing RAM Dumps and Imaging eMMC Storage on Windows Tablets
While Windows desktops and laptops are relatively easy to acquire, the same cannot be said about portable Windows devices such as tablets and convertibles (devices with detachable keyboards). Having no FireWire ports and supplied with a limited set of external ports, these devices make attaching acquisition media more complicated in comparison to their full-size counterparts. Equipped with soldered, non-removable eMMC storage, Windows tablets are extremely difficult to image while following the required forensic routine. Finally, the obscure Windows RT does not allow running unsigned desktop applications at all while restricting the ability to boot into a different OS, making forensic acquisition iffy at best.
In this article, we will have a look at how Windows-based portable electronic devices are different from traditional laptops and desktops, review new security measures and energy saving modes presented by Windows tablets and discuss hardware, methods and tools we can use to acquire the content of their RAM and persistent storage.
Security Model of Windows Tablets
Tablets running Windows 8, 8.1 and Windows RT are designed with certain security measures to prevent unauthorized access to their content if a device is lost or stolen. These security measures are similar to those present in desktop devices, and differ significantly from the approach employed by Google and Apple.
In Windows 8 and 8.1 installed on a tablet, security measures include optional whole-disk encryption (with BitLocker) and Secure Boot, an option to prevent booting into a non-recognized (unsigned) OS, effectively preventing the use of Linux-based bootable drives often used for digital forensics.
Note that Secure Boot is optional, but is often activated by default in the system’s UEFI. BitLocker keys can be retrieved from the user’s Microsoft Account (http://windows.microsoft.com/recoverykey) or extracted from a memory dump (if captured while the tablet is running).
Secure Boot, even if activated in the tablet’s UEFI BIOS, can usually be disabled by booting into UEFI (by using the combination of Volume-DOWN and Power keys). However, if UEFI BIOS is protected with a password, resetting the password could be difficult. Notably, Secure Boot does not prevent booting from external media per se. If you have a bootable recovery image of Windows 8.1 or a bootable Windows PE 5.1 flash drive, these already carry the required signatures and can be used to start the tablet even if Secure Boot is enabled. | <urn:uuid:83386fa4-2ef0-4697-9a78-9023e9940a48> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://belkasoft.com/ram-capture-on-windows-tablets | 2022-01-20T04:24:06Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320301720.45/warc/CC-MAIN-20220120035934-20220120065934-00398.warc.gz | en | 0.91162 | 527 |
When will someone take what the Jobs Genie started (http://www.lawrence.com/jobopenings/), and make the info job seekers REALLY want in an easy to access online format? Maybe take it a step farther and find out what motivates a job seeker (Achievement, Security, Power, Social Connection, etc), plus company culture and values, helping job seekers identify job opportunities with companies that value the same things? Or gather the employee values and let the employers search the databases (using AI, perhaps)and find employees who will choose to stay, grow, and contribute.
Why are we still posting job announcements that do not answer so many of the key questions job seekers have? This forces job seekers to waste time applying for jobs they ultimately will not want, because the key info they needed was intentionally left out of the job posting. So they never apply for the job that FITS...because they were busy applying for what looked like it might fit, only to learn 5 weeks later when an offer is extended that the pay is $15k less than their current salary. Or worse, they accept the job, you onboard and train them, and after 4 months they start quietly looking for another job because it's not a good cultural fit. You spend 6 months with a disengaged worker who leaves and then invites your best employees to join them at their new employer.
"Wouldn't it be Great" if:
1 - Job postings provided all the basic info job seekers want, so that someone who wants a job with any 4 (or 10!)of the characteristics on the Jobs Genie table, could simply check those 10 boxes, enter a zip code, wage/salary range, and it produced a list of job openings that FIT? Instead of doing a search and then reading 50 job postings while trying to guess about the info that is left out of traditional job descriptions?
2 - "Cultural fit" info like values, stress, etc was available to job seekers.
3 - Motivational fit was addressed in the posting as well.
Imagine low turnover, good employee-job fit, high creativity, low disengagement, and all the results that would follow! Productivity would rise, nuisance law suits and workplace injury claims decline, as would addictions, crime, and abuse. Tax collection would rise, unemployment and homelessness rates would fall, allowing reallocation of those resources.
Who will do it first?
Wow.... this app is amazing!
So where is the app??
So where is the app
How do you get to the AR and AI features through the app?

The first thing we said to ourselves when we pulled into the Ritz Carlton, Laguna Niguel was that this was going to be an epic wedding. There was just something in the air. As soon as we walked into Eunices room, we definitely knew this was going to be the BEST wedding.
Have you seen a better wedding dress? Completely custom made and beautifully fitted to Eunice, it was the jaw dropper no one expected. To match the beautiful dress, Eunice had the hottest pair of Christian Louboutin. The jewelry Eunice wore was the complete compliment to her whole wedding day attire. The details on everything was just extraordinary!
Ryan was no exception either! Our Dartmouth College grad wasn’t going to let his bride be disappointed by being unkempt. Ryan wore a perfectly fitted suit and these two guys were on their way to tie the knot at the gorgeous Ritz Carlton, Laguna Niguel.
Of course, the weather was a little gloomy and a few drops of rain started to fall. That did not hamper the celebration! Eunice & Ryan knew that it was outdoor ceremony or bust! No one picks the Ritz to have a indoor ceremony! The clouds hung around but did not dare drop a single drop on this gorgeous couple!
Everything was just absolutely gorgeous and very well put together. The ocean view, ocean breeze, and the remarkably cool weather was everything that any couple can ask for. The reception hall was completely covered in a beautiful rose gold color that brought a certain glamor that only rose gold can!
It didn’t end there! As if their own beautifully written vows weren’t enough, the groomsmen, bridesmaids, father of the groom, and the grandmother of the bride gave the most heart warming toasts that just brought tears to everyone!
Eunice & Ryan, thank you so much for allowing us to be a part of your special day! We at Cloud 9 Cinematography wish you guys nothing but the best!
