Diederik Gommers, the chairman of the Dutch Association for Intensive Care (NVIC), is also not positive about the current corona figures. Prime Minister Mark Rutte said on Tuesday that he was “not very hopeful about what is possible after January 19”. Gommers does not assume a relaxation either. “It’s very difficult,” he said on the television program on Tuesday evening On 1.
“The infections are going down, but the percentage of tests that are positive is higher again. Also the number of hospital admissions remains high. While we had hoped that it would decrease after this period. But that is not happening yet. I think. that we have to wait until next week, but I’m not very positive. “
Gommers is most concerned about the British virus mutation, which has also surfaced on a small scale in the Netherlands. “I am most concerned that the British virus mutation is still in store for us at the end of the month. So I am glad that the vaccinations have now been brought forward.” | <urn:uuid:dde18ac7-5d0d-4cec-84ff-4ab2431ccd05> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://ebonyst.com/nearly-60000-vaccination-appointments-in-two-days-now/ | 2022-01-23T05:49:52Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320304134.13/warc/CC-MAIN-20220123045449-20220123075449-00118.warc.gz | en | 0.982415 | 230 |
Crystallization(redirected from crystallizing)
Also found in: Dictionary, Thesaurus, Medical, Legal, Financial, Wikipedia.
the formation of crystals from vapors, solutions, melts, or solids (amorphous or crystalline), upon electrolysis, or in chemical reaction.
Crystallization leads to the formation of minerals. The crystallization of water plays an important role in atmospheric and soil phenomena. Crystallization is the basis of metallurgy and the production of semiconducting, optical, and piezoelectric materials, films for microelectronics, and metallic coatings. It is used widely in the chemical, food, and medical industries (purification and the production of fertilizers, salt, sugar, chemicals, and pharmaceuticals).
Conditions. If a crystal does not melt, dissolve, evaporate, or grow, then it is in thermodynamic equilibrium with the mother medium (the melt, solution, or vapor). Equilibrium of a crystal with a melt of the same material is possible only at the melting point Tm, whereas equilibrium with solution or vapor is possible only when the latter are saturated. A supersaturated or supercooled medium is a prerequisite for the growth of crystals immersed in it, and the rate of crystal growth is proportional to the deviation from equilibrium.
Crystallization is the phase transition of matter from the state of a supercooled or supersaturated mother medium to a crystalline state with lower energy. Excess energy is evolved during crystallization in the form of the latent heat of crystallization. Some of this heat may be converted into mechanical energy; for example, a growing crystal may lift a weight placed upon it by exerting a crystallization pressure on the order of several dozen kilograms-force per sq cm. The crystals of salts that form in the pores of concrete piers immersed in seawater may lead to the destruction of the concrete.
The evolution of the latent heat of crystallization heats the melt, decreases the supercooling, and retards crystallization. Crystallization ceases with the exhaustion of the substance or with the attainment of equilibrium temperature, concentration, and pressure.
Crystallization nuclei. A supercooled medium may remain in a metastable state for a long time without crystallizing. For example, small drops of highly purified metals (diameter, 0.1 mm) may be supercooled to a temperature of ∼0.8 Tm. However, upon reaching a certain limiting supercooling value (critical for the given conditions in the liquid or vapor) there is an almost instantaneous generation of numerous small crystal particles, or nuclei. Spontaneous crystallization occurs. The resulting crystallites grow and, since the supercooling diminishes, new nuclei are as a rule no longer produced. Critical supercooling depends on the temperature, concentration, and composition of the medium, on the volume of the medium, on the presence of foreign particles (for example, dust particles and crystallites of other materials, on which nuclei form), on the material of construction and the condition of the walls of the vessel, on the intensity of mixing, and on the effect of radiation and ultrasound.
The atoms or molecules of the crystallizing material combine into crystalline aggregates during nucleation. This process decreases the free energy of the system, but the formation of new surfaces increases it. The smaller the aggregate, the greater is the number of its particles at the surface and the greater is the role of the surface energy. With increasing aggregate size r, therefore, the work A required for its formation at first increases and then decreases (see Figure 1). The aggregate for which the work of formation is maximal is called the critical nucleus (rcr). The lower the work of formation of a nucleus, the more probable is its appearance; this accounts for the predominant nucleation on foreign particles (particularly charged particles), on the surfaces of solids, and on defects. This is called heterogeneous generation. In nucleation at the surface of a solid, nucleation takes place predominantly at surface inhomogeneities. The crystallites “decorate” the defects and inhomogeneities.
Homogeneous nucleation in a pure liquid is possible only after very intense supercooling. Lowering the temperature and increasing the supercooling decrease the work of formation of the nucleus, but at the same time the viscosity of the liquid increases, diminishing the frequency of addition of new particles to the crystalline aggregates. For this reason, the dependence of the rate of nucleation on the temperature has a maximum (see Figure 2). At low temperatures, the mobility of the particies in the liquid is so low that the melt solidifies while remaining amorphous, forming a glass.
Large, perfect monocrystals are often grown in metastable solutions and melts by introducing small seed crystals to the medium and avoiding spontaneous nucleation. Conversely, a maximum number of nuclei is desired for metallurgical processes.
Epitaxy. Crystals arising at the surfaces of other crystals orient themselves in a regular pattern relative to the latter. For example, the crystallization of gold from an atomic beam at the surface of a sodium chloride crystal yields gold crystallites whose cubic or octahedral faces are oriented parallel to the face of the sodium chloride crystal. The phenomenon of oriented growth is called epitaxy.
Epitaxy from the gas phase occurs when the temperature of the substrate is higher than a certain critical temperature (if lower, the crystallites will be oriented randomly). This depends
heavily on the purity of the substrate, on the number and nature of its defects, and on the composition of the surrounding medium. It also depends on the preliminary irradiation of the substrate with electrons or X rays. The substrate orients the crystallites even through thin films (∼ 1000 Å) of carbon, polyvinyl chloride, zinc oxide, and selenium (if these are not applied in ultrahigh vacuum).
Epitaxy is used in the production of monocrystalline films, which are used particularly in microelectronics. Separate, identically oriented crystallites form on the surface of a monocrystalline substrate and coalesce into a continuous film. The purity of the substrate and the absence of imperfections in it strongly influence the quality and structure of the film. Film defects arise on impurities and at the sites of coalescence of separate crystallites.
Crystal growth. Crystals grow in the form of polyhedra from weakly supercooled vapors, solutions, and, less often, melts. Their most developed faces usually have simple crystallographic (Miller) indexes (for example, the cubic and octahedral faces in the case of diamond). As a rule, the relative orientation of the crystal faces is such that the greater its size, the lower its rate of growth. Since the growth rate increases with supercooling differently for different crystal faces, the habit of the crystal also varies with changes in supercooling.
The growth of simple crystal faces takes place layer by layer, so that the edges of the incomplete layers, or steps, move along the face. The height of a step, that is, the thickness of a deposited layer, varies from fractions of a millimeter to several angstroms. On thin double-refracting crystal plates the steps appear in polarized light as the boundaries of areas of different color. Small steps are observed by the decoration method; tall steps can be
observed directly with the optical or electron microscope. During crystal growth, the small steps move faster than the tall steps, overtaking the latter and coalescing with them. The tall steps, in turn, split up into smaller steps. Surface step structure is heavily dependent on the conditions of growth (temperature, supersaturation, composition of the medium) and affects the degree of perfection of the crystal form. For example, the appearance of tall steps on saccharose crystals leads to the entrapment of droplets of the mother liquor and to the consequent cracking of the crystals.
If the crystal contains a screw dislocation, its atomic layers resemble the levels of a garage with a spiral ramp in the middle. The build-up of such a crystal takes place by the addition of atoms to the face of the last step (see Figure 3,a). This results in the growth of the crystal layer by continuously winding up on itself and building upon the dislocation. The step assumes the form of a helix during the course of growth (Figure 3,b). At low supercooling levels, dislocation leads to the quadratic dependence of the growth rate of the crystal face on supercooling (supersaturation)—that is, the growth rate becomes appreciable even for small deviations from equilibrium.
In the-case of dislocationless crystals, the deposit of each new layer must be preceded by the nucleation of the layer. New layers are generated at low supersaturation levels only in the vicinity of surface defects, but on perfect crystals and when deviations from equilibrium are large the generation of new levels at any point on the surface is also possible. In cases of large deviations from equilibrium, both nucleation and dislocation mechanisms lead to high step densities. The rate of growth increases linearly with supercooling.
Steps that radiate along the face from pin pricks, scratches, and, in cases of high supersaturation levels, crystal apexes, form growth peaks. The surface of a growing face is entirely covered by these peaks. The slopes of the peaks (from face to corner) are on the order of several degrees (smaller for lower levels of supersaturation). Crystals grown from melts (for example, most metals) are frequently rounded rather than faceted. The rounded surfaces do not grow by layers, that is, tangentially, but normally, so that the addition of new particles may occur at practically any point on the crystal surface.
Crystal surfaces that grow layer by layer are atomically smooth: most of the possible atomic sites in the layer are occupied (see Figure 4).
Surfaces that grow normally are rough on an atomic scale: the number of vacancies and atoms adsorbed at the surface and occupying sites that should be occupied in the subsequent layer is commensurate with the total number of possible atomic sites (see Figure 5). Atomically rough surfaces and often the faces of the steps of atomically smooth surfaces contain numerous kinks. At kinks, atoms may enter the crystalline phase singly, without combining into aggregates and therefore without surmounting the potential barriers associated with aggregation. The growth of rough surfaces and steps, therefore, occurs mainly by the addition of separate particles to the kinks. The results are that the rates of growth of rough surfaces are almost identical in all directions and that the form of the growing crystal is rounded (whereas atomically smooth surfaces grow layer by layer).
The filling of each new atomic site in the crystal does not take place at once. Rather, it occurs after numerous “trials and errors” consisting of the addition and removal of atoms or molecules. The smaller the deviation from equilibrium, the larger is the typical number of attempts for every irreversible addition.
The probability of the appearance of defects during crystallization decreases as the number of attempts increases, that is, as supersaturation decreases. The particles of the crystallizing substance move from the solution to the kinks by diffusion; in layered growth from the vapor phase, they also diffuse from the adsorption layer along the surface. The rate of crystal growth from solutions is determined by the ease with which the structural particle is abstracted from the molecules or ions of the solvent and added to the kinks. The rate of growth from melts is determined by the ease with which the relative positions of neighboring particles of liquid can be changed, that is, by the liquid’s viscosity.
Forms of growth. The simplest form of crystal growth is polyhedral, in which case the dimensions of the faces depend heavily on the conditions of growth. The result is that crystals take lamellar, acicular, and other forms. In the growth of large polyhedral crystals from immobile solutions, supersaturation is greater at the apexes and edges of the crystals and lower near the central areas of the faces. For this reason, the apexes become the principal origins for growth layers. When the supersaturation level over the central areas of the faces is sufficiently low, the face loses its capacity for growth and the apexes overtake it. The result is the generation of skeletal forms. For this reason, perfect crystals are grown from well-mixed solutions and melts.
Impurities in the mother medium are incorporated into the composition of the crystal. The ratio of the impurity concentration in the crystal to that in the medium is called the distribution coefficient of the impurity. The incorporation of the impurity depends on the growth rate. Different faces incorporate different amounts of impurities. For this reason, the crystal seems to be built up of pyramids whose bases form the crystal faces and whose apexes converge toward the center of the crystal. This sort of sectorial incorporation of impurities is brought about by the different structures of the different faces.
If the crystal incorporates an impurity poorly, its excess will collect before the growth front and increase. A boundary layer (from which crystallization takes place) that is enriched in the impurity does not have time to change composition. This gives rise to a zonal structure. An analogous situation arises when a crystal is enriched in the impurity and the boundary layer is impoverished.
When crystal growth is of sufficiently large volume (dozens or hundreds of cu cm and more) there occurs a spontaneous mixing of solutions and melts. In the case of a solution, the liquid layer in the vicinity of rapidly growing faces becomes impoverished in the substance and its density decreases. This leads to a displacement of the substance upward, called a concentration flow. Washing past the various faces in various ways, concentration flows change the growth rates of the faces and the habit of the crystal. In a melt, the heating of the liquid adjacent to the growing crystal by the latent heat of crystallization leads to convection currents. The rate, temperature, and impurity concentration in convection currents vary randomly about the mean values. The growth rate and composition of the crystal vary accordingly, and the body of the crystal contains the “imprints” of the consecutive positions of the crystallization front. A zonal crystal structure is formed. In metallic melts, magnetic fields are capable of halting convection and of eliminating the zonal structure.
If the melt before the growth front is supercooled, then a protrusion formed by chance on the surface finds itself in a region of higher supercooling and its apical rate of growth increases even more. As a result, the planar growth front is broken up into rounded cupolas with the form of bands or hexagons in the plane of the front. This gives rise to a honeycomb structure (see Figure 6,a). The boundaries between the cells (grooves) leave impurity-rich defect layers in the body of the crystal, so that the entire crystal consists, as it were, of hexagonal rods or plates (pencil structure; see Figure 6,b).
If a supercooled melt or solution contains a small crystal rather than a flat surface, then protrusions on it develop in several crystallographic directions and generate a many-pointed star. These main outgrowths subsequently develop lateral branches, which develop branches of the next order, and so on, to give a dendritic crystal form. In spite of its peculiar form, the crystallographic orientation of the dendritic crystal is the same for all of its branches. The necessary conditions for the development of dendrites in layered crystals are extensive supercooling and poor mixing.
At very low rates of growth from melts the distribution coefficient of the material ceases to depend on the direction and rate of growth and approaches the equilibrium value (determined by phase diagram).
Formation of defects. Real crystals always exhibit nonuniform distribution of impurities (sectorial, zonal, or pencil structure). An impurity alters the lattice constant, and internal stresses develop at the boundaries between regions of different composition. These stresses lead to the generation of dislocations and cracks. In crystallization from melts, dislocations develop as the result of elastic stresses in a nonuniformly heated crystal and during the growth of warmer layers on colder surfaces. Dislocations may be “inherited,” transferred from the seed crystal to the growing crystal.
Extraneous gases that are highly soluble in the mother medium but poorly incorporated into the growing crystal form bubbles at the growth front. These bubbles are acquired by the crystal when the growth rate exceeds a certain critical value. Extraneous solid particles are appropriated in the same way from the mother medium and become sources of internal stresses in the crystal.
Mass crystallization, the simultaneous growth of a multitude of crystals, is widely used in industry. Very small seed crystals (∼ 0.1 mm) are used in the preparation of crystals of approximately uniform size and form. The process is then conducted in a temperature range within which new nuclei will not form spontaneously.
Spontaneous mass generation and growth of nuclei occur during the solidification of metal castings. The crystals are generated primarily at the cooled walls of the mold into which the superheated metal has been poured. The nuclei at the wall are randomly oriented. Only those nuclei that exhibit maximum growth at right angles to the wall survive during the growth process. This results in the formation of an acicular zone at the surface consisting of almost parallel narrow crystals that extend at right angles to the surface. Convection currents in the melt are capable of breaking off dendritic branches, thereby supplying new seed crystals. Analogous results are obtained with ultrasound; by the addition of powders, the particles of which act as crystallization centers; and by surface-active materials, which facilitate the formation of nuclei.

The formation of a solid from a solution, melt, vapor, or a different solid phase. Crystallization from solution is an important industrial operation because of the large number of materials marketed as crystalline particles. Fractional crystallization is one of the most widely used methods of separating and purifying chemicals. In fractional crystallization it is desired to separate several solutes present in the same solution. This is generally done by picking crystallization temperatures and solvents such that only one solute is supersaturated and crystallizes out. By changing conditions, other solutes may be crystallized subsequently. Repeated crystallizations are necessary to achieve desired purities when many inclusions are present or when the solid solubility of other solutes is significant. For a discussion of crystallization in glass, a supercooled melt. Polymer crystals obtained from solutions are used to study the properties of these crystals, while crystallization of polymer melts dramatically influences polymer properties. | <urn:uuid:0aa7127c-bdc1-4496-bc77-db242eed0ff5> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://encyclopedia2.thefreedictionary.com/crystallizing | 2022-01-23T07:19:01Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320304134.13/warc/CC-MAIN-20220123045449-20220123075449-00118.warc.gz | en | 0.903989 | 4,300 |

Practice Relating to Rule 1. The Principle of Distinction between Civilians and Combatants
The Hellenic Navy’s International Law Manual (1995) states in its chapter on submarine warfare:
The aforementioned practice followed during the two World Wars by no means should be considered as sanctioning the exception of naval warfare from the rules of armed conflict. On the contrary, the fundamental principles of IHL treaties concerning the protection and respect of … civilians must be considered applicable.
In 2006, during a debate in the UN Security Council on protection of civilians in armed conflict, the permanent representative of Greece stated: “Deliberate violent attacks against civilians … can not be tolerated and should come to a halt.” | <urn:uuid:acfce661-3e75-4ccf-a5ad-e0cca9878eef> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://ihl-databases.icrc.org/customary-ihl/eng/docindex/v2_cou_gr_rule1 | 2022-01-23T05:47:12Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320304134.13/warc/CC-MAIN-20220123045449-20220123075449-00118.warc.gz | en | 0.926296 | 150 |
If you are looking for a design that depends on using old and cheep materials and still looks amazing, then you are in the right place. The shabby chick design is one of the simplest designs that you can ever apply to your house. It’s a very valuable design as well, because it mainly depends on using the old valuable stuff that we love.
The shabby design may sound a little strange for you, because however it depends on using old stuff, it can look fashionable in the same time. The things that you will use will look old, but they are brand new and stylish. Using brand new furniture pieces doesn’t mean you can’t be creative and use any old furniture piece you have to add to your shabby design.
The main colors that fit the shabby design is the pastel and light colors like, white, ivory, pink, light blue, etc. The strips, floral prints, lace, large stuffed chairs are the main features that you can use to achieve the shabby chick design in your home. Putting some vintage antiques and accessories like metal and copper table lamps, French table clock, tea sets with floral prints, wooden wind up wall clocks, will definitely enhance the beauty of the shabby chick design that you seek for.
Generally, mirrors are one of the most decorative pieces that you can use in any design. Hence, look for a mirror with special style like, Juliette mirror design, renaissance mirror design or any other design with carved wooden or metal frame and hang it on your wall. The best place to put your shabby styled mirror is above the fireplace, in the dining room, above the toilette sink or in your bedroom.
Adding the amazing pieces like throw pillows, blankets and rugs in shabby design sounds more than perfect. Look for the throw pillows that have floral prints in blue and pink colors, the throw blankets should be made of materials like, Kashmir, crochet and fur and choose rugs with special styles like, Shakespeare fur and damask styles.
Storage places present a big part of the shabby chick design, so make sure to choose them carefully. The best matching styles of the storage places that you can use are like, whicker baskets, they can be used for both storing your shoes and as a decorative piece in your living room. Rattan baskets can be used for storing the kids’ toys, books or vegetables and for sure they will look so amazing and stylish in any room.
The trunks can be used for both storing stuff and as a decorative side table in any room like living rooms or bedrooms. Curio cabinets will be such an amazing choice to store your glass dish sets and your valuable English tea set in and for sure it can be used as a stylish shabby piece in your dining room.
Choosing the suitable lighting fixtures is essential to complete the shabby design in your house, so make sure to choose them in light colors as well like pink and light blue. The lighting fixtures materials should be made of metal or wood and decorated with crystals, floral prints or beads. Avoid choosing the advanced lighting fixtures that use on and off switches and look for the fixtures that use chains or dangling threads to double the effect of the shabby design.
When you choose the curtains make sure to use them in heavy materials and avoid the other modern material like sheer layers. Remember, stick to the light pink, blue or any light or pastel color when you choose the curtains and don’t forget to look for curtains with floral prints or ruffles.
Distressed, peeled paints, cracked and sanded are the main features that should be in the furniture pieces that you choose, so you can apply the shabby design successfully. If you already have the furniture pieces and you only want to change them into the shabby look, us the help of a sand paper and scrub off the paint till you reach to that level in which the natural wood color is exposed.
To completely apply the shabby look to your furniture pieces, replace the modern knobs of the doors, windows and drawers with old ones made of porcelain, metal or glass. I think you noticed that metal has a major part in making the shabby designs, so what about repainting your old iron bed and replace it with the wooden bed you have in your bedroom? A large farm house dining table with mismatched dining chairs would be the best shabby dining set you can put in your dining room.
Finding the shabby chick stuff will be much easier if you look for them in the flea markets and garage sales; you will find what you need and more in these places. The ideas are uncountable, just stick to the basic rules of the colors and the styles and you will perfectly achieve the shabby chick design you want. | <urn:uuid:06a26336-8ab9-47df-ae69-0dd784c7e624> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://interiordesign4.com/shabby-chick-design-aecreative-simple-shabby-chick-design-ideas/ | 2022-01-23T06:52:19Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320304134.13/warc/CC-MAIN-20220123045449-20220123075449-00118.warc.gz | en | 0.935462 | 985 |

Today, it is the alma mater of professionals serving in media management, business management, marketing, marketing research, advertising, and communications-driven businesses.
This one year program intends to set a benchmark for those who aspire to excel in this field. The entire approach of this program is to impart domain expertise.
It will follow a step-by-step approach where theoretical concepts will be followed by case studies and practical implementations. Sessions are designed to be interactive and participative.

Trying to pass a hair drug test is as close to Mission Impossible as it gets. Nonetheless, despite being involved in so many Mission Impossible movies, Tom Cruise always seems to turn that impossible into ‘well, hard, but quite possible’.
The key ingredient, obviously, is the capabilities of Tom Cruise. When it comes to a hair drug test – that impossible mission of getting drugs such as THC out of your hair follicles – the capabilities of Old Style Aloe Toxin Rid shampoo seem to be quite up to the task.
With more than half of heavy users regularly failing a hair drug test, this special THC detox shampoo does seem to do quite a good job of elevating your odds of passing a hair drug test.
What is the best hair detox product?
There is little doubt that the Old Style Aloe Toxin Rid shampoo is the strongest shampoo you can buy to wash drugs out of your hair. At $235 per bottle, it’s also the costliest, by the way. And you have to leave it on your hair for 10 to 15 minutes which isn’t all that pleasant.
But which hair shampoo is the best to detox your hair is not the right question to be asking yourself.
The right question is: Will it do the job?
We’ll cover what the Old Style Aloe Toxin Rid shampoo actually is, what are the active ingredients that wash the drugs out of your hair and how to use it correctly.
But first, let’s answer the question that’s pretty much on everybody’s mind:
Does Old Style Aloe Toxin Rid Work?
The original shampoo was made by Nexxus company and dubbed the ‘Nexxus Aloe Rid shampoo’. The formulation was designed to remove free radicals from your hair; which involved using a mix of some pretty strong chemicals.
It turns out that the chemicals involved were too strong for regular use. But when it comes to detoxing drugs out of your hair follicle, the ‘too strong for regular use’ label is exactly what you want.
Washing your hair with the strongest detox hair product is the best way to up your chances of passing a hair drug test. And the Old Style Aloe Toxin Rid Shampoo is by far the strongest shampoo you can get.
Does that mean you’ll pass a hair drug test 100% of the time just by using this shampoo? Well, not 100%, but most of the people who did use it, successfully passed a drug test. Here’s one review of the Old Style Aloe Toxin Rid Shampoo at work:
In short, the Toxin Rid shampoo works. We’ll go into the ingredients that make it happen later on but it’s important to understand the two costs that come with the shampoo: the price ($235 is not an insignificant amount) and the potential hair damage with continuous use.
So do bear in mind that this is not your everyday shampoo; it’s quite a strong formulation that will in most cases do the impossible – hence the price because people are more than willing than not to pay to get ahead of a hair drug test.
What Are The Ingredients In Aloe Rid Shampoo?
Here is the full list of ingredients in the Old Style Aloe Toxin Rid shampoo. As with every shampoo, there are several components like Aqua, Glycine Soja oil, Hydro Xypropryl Methylisothiarolinone that you’ll find in pretty much every shampoo.
The focus here is on the hair detox ingredients such as Serenoa Seirulate Extract, Thioctic Acid, and Aloe Barbadensis Leaf that are the whole point of using this shampoo (in bold):
- Aqua (Deionized Water).
- Aloe Barbadensis Leaf.
- Sodium Laureth Sulfate.
- Sodium Lauryl Sulfate.
- Disodium Olemido MEA Sulfosuccinate.
- Cocamide MEA.
- Cocamidopropyl Betaine.
- Cocamide DEA.
- Propylene Glycol.
- Tocopheryl Acetate (Vitamin E).
- Persea Grattisima (Avocado Oil).
- Glycine Soja Oil.
- Hydrolyzed Wheat Proteins.
- Serenoa Seirulata Extract.
- Polyglyceryl-3 Distearate.
- Thioctic Acid.
- Isopropyl Myristate.
- Hydro Xypropyl Methylisothiazolinone.
- FD&C Blue 1.
- FD&C Yellow 5.
With all this covered what every user needs to know is how to use the hair detox shampoo.
How To Use Old Style Aloe Toxin Rid Shampoo Properly?
Obviously, this shampoo is not a ‘just put it on the hair and wash it out and you’re done’ shampoo.
It does come with very precise information on how to properly use it in order to achieve the highest toxin extraction effect.
Ideally, you should start washing your hair with it 3-10 days before the test. Here’s are the step-by-step instructions of the standard use of Toxin Rid shampoo:
- Use normal hair shampoo to clean the cuticula (the outer part) of hair strands.
- Apply the Old Style Aloe Toxin Rid shampoo; make sure that you by rinsing reach the base of every hair.
- Leave the Old Style shampoo on for 10 to 15 minutes. Getting toxins out of your hair is a somewhat lengthy process.
- Rinse out and repeat about 2 to 3 times per day.
It’s best to start with the hair washing as soon as possible.
Where To Buy Old Style Aloe Toxin Rid Shampoo?
The shampoo is sold in an e-commerce store and you can order it online.
Again, it’s best to start with the hair treatment as soon as possible. The more times you wash your hair with the shampoo, the higher your chances of passing a hair drug test will be. | <urn:uuid:58427396-6db5-42cd-a5ea-89192e12dc94> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://jhpn.net/aloe-toxin-rid-shampoo-review/ | 2022-01-23T05:00:28Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320304134.13/warc/CC-MAIN-20220123045449-20220123075449-00118.warc.gz | en | 0.907246 | 1,333 |
Colombo: Fresh violence today erupted between majority Sinhala Buddhists and minority Muslims in other areas of central Sri Lanka’s riot-hit Kandy district, prompting authorities to extend a curfew till tomorrow.
The authorities yesterday imposed curfew till this morning after communal violence in the Theldeniya area of the central hill district that left two persons dead and damaged several mosques and homes.
Government spokesperson Rajitha Senaratne said that the curfew has been extended in the troubled hill district popular with tourists to prevent further violence.
However, arson attacks continued today and Muslim-owned businesses were targeted by the mobs in spite of deployment of hundreds of security personnel in the district.
Following the incidents of violence, President Maithripala Sirisena yesterday declared a state of emergency and deployed the police and military to prevent further violence.
It was the first time since August 2011 that a state of emergency was in force in the Indian Ocean’s island nation.
Police fired teargas shells to disperse rioters in curfew-bound areas hours after a state of emergency was imposed in a bid to quell anti-Muslim violence, an senior police official said.
In the incidents of overnight violence in a Kandy suburb, Menikhinna, three policemen were injured while seven people were arrested for breaking the curfew and trying to cause unrest, police spokesman Superintendent of Police (SP) Ruwan Gunasekera said.
The government sent troops and elite police commandos to Kandy, home to famous tea plantations and Buddhist relics, to restore order and enforce the curfew.
The curfew was lifted last morning but was re-imposed soon after several mosques, shops and homes belonging to the minority community were badly damaged in the attacks by the Sinhalese Buddhists.
Sri Lanka has a long history of state of emergency during the LTTE rebellion both in the south and the Tamil minority dominated north and east of the island.
Schools in Kandy, which is about 115 kilometres from Colombo, remained closed today.
The Sri Lankan government suspended internet services and blocked access to social networking websites and messaging platforms like Whatsapp in the riot-hit areas.
“Access to certain social media sites and messaging platforms will be restricted with immediate effect until further notice,” Sri Lanka’s largest mobile phone provider Dialog said in a statement.
According to an official, Sri Lanka’s Telecommunications and Regulatory Commission had asked the internet service providers to block access to Facebook and other social media platforms in Kandy.
The move also affected the internet users in other parts of the country.
A senior official said that it was a “temporary measure” and soon all the restrictions would be removed.
This has been done to prevent spread of false information, the government spokesperson said.
The police had claimed that anti-Muslim rioters were using social media to spread anti-Muslim hatred.
Senaratne said that politicians belonging to a certain group were responsible for the violence, in an apparent reference to former President Mahinda Rajapaksa s new party which won the recent local council election.
“We clearly see an organised pattern orchestrated by political hands,” Senior minister Sarath Amunugama said.
He said those arrested include ex-military men, political activists and even those in active-military service.
Kabeer Hashim, a Muslim and another senior minister, said that the original incident which sparked off the clashes had been dealt with the due legal process.
“The four Muslims who were responsible for the assault and murder had been remanded. The law has taken its course when these organized group decided to unleash violence,” Hashim said.
The government has ordered more troops to reinforce police and stop the unrest spreading.
Three special police teams, comprising three Deputy Inspector Generals of Police and three Superintendents of Police, have been deployed in Kandy on the instructions of the Inspector General of Police (IGP) Pujith Jayasundara, the police spokesman said.
Meanwhile, following declaration of a state of emergency, foreign governments, including the US and the UK, have asked their nationals visiting the island nation to “exercise caution, avoid protests and rallies, and comply with local security requirements”.
UN under-secretary-general for political affairs Jeffrey Feltman will be visiting Sri Lanka this week.
The UN spokesman said that Feltman will reach Colombo on Friday for a three-day tour and is also expected to visit Kandy.PTI | <urn:uuid:54e429ce-f1f6-4aa2-9b82-7dcb3f65ddbd> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://kashmirreader.com/2018/03/07/muslim-shops-buildings-targeted-in-sri-lanka-as-fresh-violence-erupts/ | 2022-01-23T05:03:35Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320304134.13/warc/CC-MAIN-20220123045449-20220123075449-00118.warc.gz | en | 0.9672 | 935 |
What Tips Can You Share About Transitioning from Homeschool to College?/
What Tips Can You Share About Transitioning from Homeschool to College?
My oldest daughter recently graduated and was accepted to a public college. I would have to admit it was a bit nerve wracking simply because there were so many unknown factors. Truly, in any new situation it is the unknown factors that tend to get us nervous. Yet, each day we took it one step at a time.
Transitions Can be Easier when You are Organized
I know this may sound a bit strange. I have to concede, at some times in my life I am super organized but in the last few years of working part time jobs and homeschooling I just haven’t been as organized as I would like. However, I knew I had to be for this! I began when she was in ninth grade keeping records of the courses that she took, her volunteer hours, and extracurricular activities.
The College Transition is Easier when You are Dual Enrolled
Again, this point may be up for discussion… however, I felt that having my daughter take dual enrollment courses really got her thinking like a college student. She wasn’t just taking high school courses, she was taking college courses that had the benefit of counting as her high school courses. It really changed her mindset, and she began to live up to “college level” expectations. I have to admit that since she is homeschooled, she often tells me how disappointed she is with the average college students her age. I don’t know if that’s typical for most homeschoolers, but she seems to be a bit more mature… I guess that is a good thing!
Transition to College is Easier When you Prepare
Yes, practice for college. It does sound funny, yet at our house we did just that. Start with reading. Read the classics, read for your interests, and read for personal development. Then write! I made her write AT LEAST one research paper each year that corresponded with average college expectations. (I probably should have made her write more than one, but it was torture!) I made her practice writing timed essays for her SAT (that was probably the worst thing I’ve ever done – she HATED writing!!!) She would often be so angry at me, there were times I wished I could just let her off the hook. All I have to say is, with each new college class she takes, she gets compliments on how professional her writing sounds and how her syntax and grammar are well developed.

I was in a dressing room in the Gap when I heard what sounded like a cat being disemboweled near the flannel shirts. It started small, with whimpering. By the time I left the dressing room, the sound had increased exponentially.
It was an enraged boy. For a minute, I wondered if maybe he had lost the adult he’d come into the store with but then noticed the woman paying for her items turn around and make eye contact with the boy before she went back to what she was doing. An older child stood with her back to him a few feet away from where he was standing. She seemed to be in a trance as she stood staring through the plate-glass windows at the front of the store. It was clear that she’d seen this show before.
I have no idea what had set off the explosion, but I left the store thinking about that purple-faced, bawling boy and the river of rage that overflowed its banks and flooded a store. The image of him, out of control and ignored, stayed with me the rest of the day.
The next afternoon, my daughter and I were catching a quick lunch together in a restaurant in downtown Minneapolis and were nearly ready to leave the restaurant when a middle-aged man in the booth next to ours began, loudly, to berate the server who he believed had overcharged him for the lunch he and his family had just eaten. As the young waitress patiently went through the receipt, he became more and more loud, belligerent, and unreasonable as his wife and young son sat in the booth, waiting for the out of control storm to pass, looking unsurprised by his outburst.
Two families. Two tantrums. Two storms. In two days.
In the first 19 days of January, there were 11 shooting-related incidents in high schools or colleges in the U.S. And in every instance, the shooters were young men. Lock-down drills to protect children from other children are as common as fire drills used to be in our educational institutions.
Meanwhile, we argue about the tools used to inflict the harm instead discussing and trying to understand why the rage is there in the first place, why the potential to inflict harm exists in some of our boys.
As a mother of a son and as an educator, I have thought about all of this until my head hurts. Sadly, I have more questions than I do answers. The only thing I know for sure is that the inability to handle frustration in constructive, rather than destructive, ways has to be part of the answer and that this is a skill that can and should be taught.
And I know, without a shadow of doubt, that when we start locking our children into classrooms to keep them safe instead of addressing the reasons why we need to, that we have failed the ones we are locking in as well as the ones we are locking out.
January was a rough month in more ways than one. | <urn:uuid:cf699b22-580d-4c94-a749-c4bad85130d2> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://loonwhisperer.com/2014/02/03/searching-for-keys/ | 2022-01-23T05:46:53Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320304134.13/warc/CC-MAIN-20220123045449-20220123075449-00118.warc.gz | en | 0.989277 | 608 |

Science, technology and the mechanisation of knowledge are in grave danger of destroying the conditions of freedom of thought, and, in destroying the conditions of freedom of thought, bringing about the collapse of what we like to think of as western civilisation. (‘A Critical Review’, The Bias of Communication, 190)
In 1948 Harold Innis gave a presentation at a conference of commonwealth universities in Oxford.1 In it he averred:
My bias is with the oral tradition, particularly as it has been reflected in Greek civilisation, [and] with the necessity of recapturing something of its spirit. For that purpose we should try to understand something of the importance of [the] life or of the living tradition which is peculiar to the oral as against the mechanised tradition…
Fundamental questions were implicated: What exactly characterizes an “oral tradition” vs a “mechanised” one? Could classical Greece, for example, be said to be “mechanised” once it was no longer only “oral”? If not, where and how to draw the line between the two?2 And just what is the “spirit” or the “life” of a civilisation or a tradition — how is this knot of questions to be approached?
Innis gestured in the direction of questions like these when he spoke of the need “to make some critical survey” and to render “a critical review” (the name he gave to his remarks when they were printed). But for a “systematic overhauling” of this sort, it was necessary to establish “a common point of view”. And to achieve “a common point of view” it was necessary to recognize its absence in a time of “the pervasive influence of discontinuity”:
Knowledge has been divided in the modern world to the extent that it is apparently hopeless to expect a common point of view. (…) Western civilisation has reached the point that a conference largely composed of University administrators [like ourselves] should unconsciously assume division in points of view in the field of learning and (…) should have been so far concerned with political representation as to forget the [cultural] problem of unity in Western civilisation; or, to put it in a general way, (…) all of us here together seem [ourselves] to be [just] what is wrong with Western civilisation.
How had this come about?
The impact of science on cultural development has been evident in its contribution to technological advance, notably in communication and in the dissemination of knowledge. In turn it has been evident in the types of knowledge disseminated, that is to say, science lives its own life not only in the mechanism which is provided to distribute knowledge but also in the sort of knowledge which will be distributed.3 (…) We are compelled to recognise the significance of mechanised knowledge as a source of power and [the associated] subjection [of education] to the demands of force through the instrument of the State. The Universities are in danger of becoming a branch of the military arm. The [critical] problem of Universities in the British Commonwealth is to appreciate [the] implications [of this fact] and to attack in a determined fashion the problems created by a neglect of the position of culture in Western civilisation. Centralisation in education in the interests of political organisation has disastrous implications.
Innis had a great deal of practical experience dealing with this situation in the concrete, sometimes criticizing government interference in university affairs, sometimes criticizing academics for their myopia and for their failure to address the deep cultural problems of “Western civilisation”. But he did not have a solution in theory to the problem of establishing “a common point of view”.4 It is just here where McLuhan’s contribution must be assessed.5
- Report of Proceedings of the Sixth Congress of the Universities of the Commonwealth, 1948; also: ‘Appendix’ to Minerva’s Owl (1948); also: Bias of Communication, 1951, 190-195; also: ‘The Mechanization of Knowledge’, in Staples, Markets and Cultural Change, 1995, 350-355. ↩
- The Gutenberg Galaxy may be read as addressing this question. ↩
- “The mechanism (…) to distribute knowledge” shapes “the sort of knowledge which will be distributed”: the medium is the message. ↩
- Innis could not see his way to “a common point of view” on account of his twin convictions that “it is impossible for (the economic historian) to avoid the bias of the period in which he writes” and that the current period is characterized by “fundamental solipsism”. For references and discussion of these points, see Innis, McLuhan and “the power of metamorphosis”. ↩
- McLuhan noted to Gerald Stearn that “(Sigfried) Giedion influenced me profoundly — (reading) Space, Time and Architecture was one of the great events of my lifetime.” Now in Space, Time and Architecture one of the central points that caught McLuhan’s attention was the following chain of thought: “Historians quite generally distrust absorption into contemporary ways of thinking and feeling as a menace to their scientific detachment, dignity, and breadth of outlook. But one can be thoroughly the creature of one’s own period, embued with its methods, without sacrificing these qualities (of scientific detachment, dignity, and breadth of outlook). Indeed, the historian in every field must be united with his own time by as widespread a system of roots as possible. The world of history, like the world of nature, explains itself only to those who ask the right questions, raise the right problems. The historian must be intimately a part of his own period to know what questions concerning the past are significant to it.” (6) With Giedion, McLuhan would deny both of Innis’ convictions that there is no escape from one’s period and that the present period implicates a “fundamental solipsism”.

I’ve posted about this a few times, but for those of you who don’t know, a few years ago I uploaded a short 42 second YouTube video to my channel that went unexpectedly viral (views have since slowed down). Okay, I wouldn’t exactly say the video was viral, but it was very popular on YouTube for a few weeks.
This is the video if you’re curious:
My sister is a beautiful singer, but suffers from stage fright and only feels safe singing in front of me. I really wanted to share her singing with the world (and I know she does too), so back in 2016 I filmed her singing and playing guitar and then uploaded it to YouTube – without even telling her!
I didn’t tell a soul until the video reached 2,000 views. At that point I decided to admit to Tara what I’d done. She was hesitant initially, but when she came around to the idea, she let me keep the video up. I think she is very thankful she made that decision – as her eyes light up whenever she gets a positive comment and it’s really helped boost her confidence, she can even sing in public now!
We still remember the day the video reached 200,000 views… and never did we think it would ever reach 1 million! We popped some champagne and celebrated when we reached that milestone.
My local newspaper wanted to do a story about both my sister and me, but my sister was too shy about it and unfortunately we had to let that opportunity pass us by.
I’ve uploaded two new videos to the channel if you guys would like to check them out:
Some Christmas singing (but not a christmas song, sorry! It’s Tin Man)
And some Karaoke on New Year’s Eve (Edelweiss):
I was going to use my channel to upload writing related videos for you all, but it looks like it has been commandeered by my sister’s talent! And I don’t mind a bit 🙂 Perhaps my sister and I can collaborate and call the channel ‘Milly & Tara’ lol.

New Year’s has always been one of my favorite holidays. I like reflecting on the past year and looking forward to what’s ahead. I enjoy making New Year’s Resolutions but I rarely end up keeping them for the entire year. Last year I set two goals for 2013:
1) Read through the entire Bible in a year
2) Run a 10K
Did I accomplish either of these goals? Alas, no, I lost interest in both. But — I did stay on track with the Bible reading for about 6 months. I realized I wasn’t getting much out of it because the reading schedule was too intensive. To read through the entire Bible in a year you need to read three or four chapters per day. Lately I’ve been trying to read one chapter a day and that is working well, so I plan to continue that.
As far as running goes, I have been running off and on throughout the year. I’ve noticed I feel much better when I run regularly. For about the last month, I’ve been running twice a week, but I’d like to increase that to three times a week.
So what was 2013 all about for me, if not completing my resolutions?
1) A Mommy Year
2013 (and 2012, 2014, 2015, etc.) was mostly about caring for my sweet little one. It’s been amazing to see all the changes she’s gone through in the past year as she’s changed from Baby Bear to Toddler Bear. In 2013 she learned to walk, clap, sign, talk, dance, run, and climb. From her first word (Mama) to her first sentence (“Read the book!”), it’s been a joy to watch her language development.
2) Becoming a Writer
In 2013 I’ve made the transition from being an aspiring writer to being a writer. Although it’s been years since I graduated from college with my BA in journalism, this is the first time I’ll be putting “writer” as my occupation on my tax return. And that feels pretty great, even if it doesn’t pay much – yet. I’ve completed two freelance editing projects and have published a collection of parenting articles on sites like eHow, GlobalPost Parenting and ModernMom.
This fall marked a move that has been very beneficial for me. We’re now in the same town as my parents, and have an apartment that boasts a dishwasher and is (mostly) mold-free. Hip hip hurray!
Goals for 2014:
Goal-setting is important to me, as it makes me feel like I’m purposefully moving forward in my life. Explicitly stating my goals helps put them into a clearer focus and greatly increases my likelihood of accomplishing them. I’d encourage you to also have goals for the year, even if some of them seem unrealistic right now. Dare to dream. Here are mine:
1) Write and self-publish my young adult novel.
I just completed an excellent online course on writing young adult fiction. I’ve wanted to write a YA novel for some time, but never knew how to structure it. Now that I’ve taken this course, it seems an achievable (though challenging) goal.
2) Buy a house.
I’ve already completely Step 1 towards this goal — just bought a book about becoming a first-time homeowner. Yay!
3) Run 3 miles in 30 minutes.
Currently I can run 2.5 miles in 30 minutes, but I think if I increase my running to three days a week it will be fairly easy to reach this goal.
4) Make new friends but keep the old.
Focusing on relationships is always important to me. I’m shy, so it is a challenge for me to make friends, but necessary since we don’t know many people in our new town. And I want to continue investing heavily in my old relationships — particularly with my husband and the little one. | <urn:uuid:a2b51ee6-df05-4690-a19f-2e5adb0a539e> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://motherbearblog.com/2013/12/30/new-year-goal-setting/ | 2022-01-23T07:00:03Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320304134.13/warc/CC-MAIN-20220123045449-20220123075449-00118.warc.gz | en | 0.971492 | 867 |

Microinsurance: The Ugly Duckling in Financial Services to the Poor
Being poor means not only surviving with a tight budget, but also managing the unpredictability of an irregular income. Coping with such variability is a fundamental challenge that is often overlooked by financial service providers in low income markets. This state of affairs is made worse when poor households suffer external shocks like the death of a family member, natural disasters or health emergencies. The poor’s inability to mitigate risk often forces them to sell their assets, take on high-interest loans, or exhaust their savings.
The negative impact of external shocks is compounded by the fact that poor households have very low asset bases. Just one shock is often enough to push them deeper into poverty. Even the potential of uninsured shocks has costs on the poor. To limit their exposure, low-income households may forgo riskier, profitable business opportunities. They might diversify their economic activities, or keep assets more liquid – both of which imply an opportunity cost of being poor.
These are low-risk and rational choices designed to avoid falling further into poverty but that perversely also prevent them from pulling themselves out of the Bottom of the Pyramid. For instance, poor farmers may prefer low-risk and low-return crops over more profitable and riskier ones. They may choose to plant many different crops instead of sticking to the crop they know best (not to mention foregoing possible economies of scale), or may decide against investing in machinery designed to increase the productivity in the longer term.
In the absence of formal insurance, poor people often resort to risk-pooling schemes (for example, funeral and burial societies), income support (for example, credit arrangements), and consumption smoothing arrangements (for example, grain banks) (Bhattamishra and Barrett 2008). In nearly every case, these systems take place at the local community level and rely on personal relations between participants, so they are hard to scale up. Furthermore, these approaches offer limited protection and are prone to break down during emer-gencies that affect the whole community.
At its most basic, formal microinsurance tries to cover this need by reducing the vulnerability of the poor to external shocks. There are three main characteristics to insuring household risk: frequency, intensity and correlation (World Bank, 2008). A risk can be of low frequency but of high economic impact or vice versa. Additionally, it may affect only individual households (for instance, healthcare risks due to bad household cleaning) or may affect to all people in the same area (for instance, floods or droughts). In this second case, the risk is said to be correlated across individuals and is called a covariate risk. Community level informal schemes that are often used in the absence of microinsurance offerings are especially weak against covariate risks.
Microinsurance firms can offer better risk management alternatives to poor households by pooling the risks of individuals of a similar risk class and transferring it to a larger and more diverse group of insured participants. The products offered can be designed in myriad ways. Depending on the risk insured, activity levels, employed assets and risk exposure, different insurance types may be more appropriate than others. Nonetheless, microinsurance products are generally grouped in three categories:
- Health insurance: To address disease, reduce mortality, and improve health in low-income households. Although the World Bank identifies health insurance as an important complement to poverty reduction efforts, it is one of the most notoriously difficult microinsurance products to implement, because it requires significant managerial and actuarial expertise.
- Life insurance: The death of a household’s main breadwinner can severely impact household welfare. If well designed, life insurance can mitigate the financial shock of this death by providing income assistance to the family and/or covering funeral expenses. Usually life insurance can be easily bundled with other types of insurance and so it may also include the repayment of pending debts when the family’s breadwinner dies.
- Agricultural and livestock insurance: Livestock insurance covers losses resulting from death, disease and accidental injury to livestock (either at the individual or at the herd level). Crop insurance tends to be more complex, because negative external shocks to crops can arise due to yield loss (a lower than anticipated yield), quality loss (crops of lower quality than anticipated) or revenue loss (due to fluctuations in the market prices paid for the crops).
Agricultural and livestock insurance was the source of one very important recent innovation in the field of microinsurance: index-based insurance (IFPRI, 2009). The payment structure in index-based insurance is determined by an index (usually rainfall) which is highly correlated with a particular crop yield or livestock mortality rate. The use of this index decreases the administrative and transaction costs for identifying losses and it limits the influence of the insured in affecting the outcome, since the index is independent of individual actions.
Thanks to its relative simplicity life insurance is the most popular microinsurance product in low-income markets, followed by health products and agricultural/livestock insurance. However, in spite of its increasing sophistication, it is surprising that microinsurance services have received much less attention than other financial services (such as credit or saving) offered in low-income markets. As a result, their market penetration is much lower than would be expected. For instance, a study of the microinsurance market in Africa estimated that life insurance covered only 2% of its potential market, while health and agriculture insurance services barely reached 0.3% and 0.1% of the low-income population (ILO, 2009).
One of the reasons advanced for such meager numbers is the lack of coordination between microfinance institutions (MFIs) and insurers. This is unfortunate, since the potential for overlaps and savings between both business models is evident, given their intimate knowledge of their clients and the similarities in their respective products and processes. A stronger partnership between both economic actors would directly reduce the cost of coverage because it would make available better quality information about the customer. Many microinsurance providers would benefit from partnering with an organization experienced in risk management, product development and efficient information management systems.
Additionally, MFIs can also offer good local knowledge and access to local networks through their extensive platforms. For instance, credit life insurance products can and often are sold together with loans. The premiums are then collected with loan repayments in order to reduce administrative costs. Unfortunately, the reality is that although some MFIs have already added insurance services to their product portfolio, they are rarely bundled together and thus the potential for cross-selling usually remains unrealized.
It may well be the case that commercial banks, which are now starting to offer microfinance services alone and which are much more experienced in product cross-selling, will end up spearheading the drive to offer microinsurance products coupled with other financial services. Another possible alternative would be to develop insurance products as a natural extension of health care services or other assistance or advisory services. Therefore MFIs are not the only possible partners for microinsurance firms and many possible competitors could take the baton of microinsurance in the near future.
A second and very important unrealized development in the microinsurance landscape is the neglect of women in the design of their insurance products. Although women comprise 70% of the world’s 1.3 billion poor (Millennium Campaign), very few insurers have taken a gendered approach to microinsurance. However, women have needs that are not met with standard insurance services. Women face special health risks, such as those related to pregnancy and childbearing or those arising from greater vulnerability to diseases such as HIV/AIDS, which are very rarely covered. This represents a missed opportunity which should not be hard to tackle.
A recent paper by the Women’s World Banking organization argues that female targeted insurance products should include a) affordable coverage for specific health problems faced by women, especially maternity coverage; b) extended health insurance cover for the whole family, especially for the death of the spouse; c) property and assets insurance, including marital property, that assures that the title is in the woman’s name and prevents assets being seized by a husband’s relatives in the event of his death; and d) coverage that ensures that children benefit after a woman’s death.
All in all, the future of microinsurance is bright, not only due to the great unmet needs it would address, but also because the final product requires relatively little tampering with and it can be easily associated with other extensive and profitable platforms in low-income markets.

March Madness is driving Las Vegas room charges by means of the roof.
Some on line casino resorts in the valley are looking at place rates for this weekend strike quantities not seen in in months. The significant selling price factors hint that desire is picking up for Las Vegas vacations, specifically now that COVID-19 situation figures are dropping.
“People want to get again to experiencing the ordinary issues in everyday living,” gaming advisor Josh Swissman of The Tactic Firm explained. “For a whole lot of individuals, which is coming out to Vegas, irrespective of whether by plane or car or truck, and taking pleasure in the initial pair rounds of the NCAA event.”
‘Best place’ for March Insanity
The NCAA basketball match is 1 of the most significant once-a-year gatherings for Las Vegas casinos. Providers missed out on prospective earnings past year when the event was canceled amid the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, but this calendar year need to come back again sturdy. The American Gaming Association estimates that much more than 47 million Individuals are envisioned to put bets on this year’s tournament, similar to 2019 quantities.
There are a good deal of factors sporting activities fans are selecting to journey to Las Vegas to put their match bets. Pool year is setting up to select up, and the metropolis has some of the most grandiose sportsbook offerings in the environment, from the 30,000-square-foot sportsbook at the Westgate around the Strip to Circa’s stadium-type sportsbook in downtown Las Vegas.
“Vegas is generally the very best position to view athletics if you cannot be at the are living sport,” mentioned Nehme E. Abouzeid, president of consulting business LaunchVegas.
The event starts off in earnest Friday, just as Las Vegas is starting off to see sizeable signals of restoration. Eating places and casinos can now function at 50 per cent capability. Vaccines are getting to be popular, with about 14 % of grownups in Nevada fully inoculated as of Monday. And COVID-19 circumstances, hospitalizations and fatalities have slowed over the past number of months.
“All of these factors are supporting make Las Vegas beautiful once more, and holidaymakers are responding,” Swissman reported. “Plus, there’s a whole lot of pent-up need. Men and women have been at house practically a 12 months now.”
That higher desire interprets into greater charges. A remain at The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas this Saturday starts off at $650, in accordance to price ranges shown on Resorts.com. Final 7 days, a weekend continue to be started off at $325. A keep at Red Rock Vacation resort went from $188 to $399 in that identical time span.
Spokespeople for Red Rock declined to comment, and spokespeople for the Cosmopolitan did not return a request for remark.
At Circa, rooms start off at $399 this Saturday, up $100 in comparison with rooms previous weekend, in accordance to the company’s internet site. The tournament promises to convey a lot of company to the downtown home and its three-tale sportsbook.
“We are achieving total occupancy throughout all houses,” claimed Angela Ciciriello, spokeswoman for sister properties Circa, the D Las Vegas and the Golden Gate.
Starting room charges at specified Caesars Amusement Inc. attributes also are observing a increase this weekend. A stay at the Rio, which commenced at $64 past Saturday, starts at $139 this Saturday, according to rates shown on Accommodations.com. Meanwhile, starting selling prices at the Flamingo went from $149 to $175.
“Las Vegas has always been a top rated destination for athletics enthusiasts, and with the triumphant return of March Madness, resort bookings have improved across the city,” a Caesars spokesperson claimed.
A spokeswoman for MGM Resorts International explained spring split vacation has also strengthened bookings.
“We’re optimistic that demand from customers will preserve expanding in the coming weeks and months as the overall economy and our field proceed to recuperate,” firm spokeswoman Callie Driehorst mentioned.
Spokespeople for the three other major gaming operators in Las Vegas — Boyd Gaming Corp., Las Vegas Sands Corp. and Wynn Resorts Ltd. — either declined to comment or did not return requests for comment.
Return to normal
Bigger room prices could be poor news for budget-aware travelers, but it could be a boon for Las Vegas resorts and the state.
According to the latest regular monthly Las Vegas Conference and Site visitors Authority report, the city’s typical everyday area amount in January was down 41 p.c 12 months about yr at $90.71.
Significantly less expending by people implies fewer funding for the condition. Nevada gathered just under $1.3 billion in tourism field-precise taxes in fiscal calendar year 2020, down 29 % compared with the year ahead of. This fall affects state and community products and services this sort of as training, in accordance to the Nevada Vacation resort Association’s 2021 Nevada Gaming Truth Ebook.
But Abouzeid explained the home fee spike from March Madness will not final lengthy.
“Vegas is always terrific the initial handful of times of March Insanity, then it sort of cuts back,” he said. “But that’s the mother nature of the company. Much more groups are in it at the begin, so there’s much more groups to look at, additional groups to guess on. Then it slows down.”
Swissman agreed that the increased place fees will sooner or later dip, but he expects to see them little by little rise in the coming months.
“(What you’ll) see is a constant typical growing of place charges as you move into the upcoming,” he claimed. “They will start out to come off this base they’ve been hanging all over for months and months.”
Gaming specialist Debi Nutton, a previous Wynn Resorts Ltd. government, believes that restoration will get time. Even though main situations such as Memorial Working day and Labor Day will result in charges to spike, she does not count on the rates to fully bounce again and stabilize right until Las Vegas is in a position to get better midweek enterprise.
“I really don’t consider we’ll see fantastic hotel costs on a consistent foundation until we get conventions again,” she reported.

Those that have been to Turf Moor will know that on one corner of the stadium is a cricket ground. It’s one that I’ve frequented often and has always proved to be a good place to enjoy some pre-match pints and banter with friends. It’s moments like this that have caused the real pangs this season. Hopefully, should Burnley survive we’ll be able to return to that haunt next season enjoying football as it should be. Anyway I’m not going to get all sentimental and bang on about it, I will of course still be enjoying some pre-match pints at least!
On the face of it, our record at Turf Moor is pretty impressive having not lost there since Dec 2008 and not lost there in the league since the old First Division days back in 1974. But when you look at them in more detail, aside from our visit under Emery in May of 2019, we’ve hardly played them off the park. In 2016 Koscielny scored a last minute offside, handball goal to take all three points. A year later we needed an extra time Sanchez penalty to get the win. Whatever you think of Burnley and their way of playing “football” they know how to make things difficult for us.
On paper it looks like Mikel Arteta seems to have one of those so called “good problems” this week. We have a fully rested squad and Burnley only played on Wednesday night. But looking forward we have a now crucial trip to Athens (AGAIN!) on Thursday followed by the return leg at the Emirates a week later. Sandwiched in-between those is the small matter of Sp*rs at home…
I’m not going to begin to try and guess what sort of side Mikel Arteta will play, there are enough armchair managers out there and I’m not gonna add myself to that list. But what is clear is that rotation will be absolutely key in the coming weeks. Managing the squad and not just the team is one of the most important aspects of being a football manager and I have faith that Mikel will get it right.
That’s it for today, wherever you watch the match tomorrow I hope you stay safe and will be cheering the boys home. | <urn:uuid:99113a7e-bddd-457f-b0b8-5b58be1f4a08> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://northbankbible.com/2021/03/05/turf-moor-test/ | 2022-01-23T05:56:18Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320304134.13/warc/CC-MAIN-20220123045449-20220123075449-00118.warc.gz | en | 0.970185 | 487 |

"Moonshine" is the title track of Collage's work released in 1994 and it's also a very good way to discover why this Polish band is so higly rated by many prog fans. This track is extremely dynamic, driven by aerial keyboard effects and a crystal wall of sound. But you'll also find some quiet and atmospheric passages, announcing the subsequent rushes and rythmic progressions. The main melodies are well found, catchy but never trivial, and the instrumental passages aren't mere bridges between two verses, as they disassemble and reassemble each theme, magnifying the symphonic pattern of the song.
Collage played a lead role in the '90s Polish prog renaissance.
That's why I like each second of these 12:30 minutes of progressive rock, and I often come back to this song. The fact is that such a magniloquent clockwork never sounds artificial or redondant and the music flows naturally from the band to the very heart of the listener. Probably it's only me, but I see bright stars in the sky at midday when "Moonshine" is there. | <urn:uuid:56975440-9317-409b-bc78-e839d12e1803> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://progrocklittleplace.blogspot.com/2014/07/ | 2022-01-23T05:08:01Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320304134.13/warc/CC-MAIN-20220123045449-20220123075449-00118.warc.gz | en | 0.964141 | 233 |
TFIIIB, the initiation factor for transcription by RNA polymerase III (pol III) is, in yeast, composed of three subunits: TBP, TFIIIB70/Brf1 and TFIIIB90. To determine the extent to which each of these subunits is limiting for pol III transcription, the effect of overexpressing each subunit was assessed on the expression of wild-type and promoter mutant pol III genes both in vivo and in vitro . In vivo , we find that the synthesis of wild-type pol III genes is not limited to a significant extent by the level of any TFIIIB subunit. There is, however, a two-fold increase in the synthesis of the promoter mutant gene, sup9-e A19-supS1 , in strains overexpressing TFIIIB70. The findings suggest that overexpression of TFIIIB70has a differential effect on the expression of pol III genes with strong versus weak promoters. In vitro transcription assays support this conclusion and reveal an inverse correlation between the transcriptional response to TFIIIB70overexpression and promoter strength. The individual TFIIIB subunits are nuclear by immunofluorescence and are calculated to have nuclear concentrations in the low micromolar range. In comparison, the factors are diluted 100-fold or more in whole cell extracts. This dilution accounts for the generally limiting nature of TFIIIB70in pol III gene transcription in vitro. | <urn:uuid:52073042-c68d-46d8-b6f8-70d8775d6200> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/9580684/?dopt=Abstract | 2022-01-23T06:28:56Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320304134.13/warc/CC-MAIN-20220123045449-20220123075449-00118.warc.gz | en | 0.88053 | 298 |
Twitter suspended the account of Indian journalist, author and activist Salil Tripathi on Sunday after he tweeted a video of himself reciting a poem about the 1992 Babri Masjid demolition and the 2002 Gujarat riots.
In response to query regarding the suspension of Mr. Tripathi’s account, Twitter said it was “temporarily suspended for publishing a list that violates our abusive behaviour policy”.
The action was reportedly taken by Twitter after Mr. Tripathi’s last tweet, a poem he shared on the anniversary of the demolition of the Babri mosque which he dedicated to his mother.
A part of the poem in the tweet in question read: “On December 6, 1992, as you called me at my office in Singapore, when they destroyed the Babri Masjid. We have just killed Gandhi again, you said.”
“As Hindu mobs went, house-to-house, looking for Muslims to kill. After a train compartment in Godhra burned, killing 58 Hindus in February 2002. You were right, each time,” he said in the poem.
Prominent personalities, including British-Indian novelist Salman Rushdie, Under-Secretary-General UN Shashi Tharoor and lawyer Prashant Bhushan, voiced their anger and called the suspension “outrageous”.
“This is an outrageous act of censorship against one of the most important advocates of free speech. Twitter, stop it now! Jack what’s going on?” Rushdie wrote.
“Outrageous! Twitter suspended account of Journalist Salil Tripathi, chair PEN International’s Writers in Prison. One of his tweets reported as “offensive” was a video of Tripathi performing a poem he had written for mother, on the demolition of Babri Masjid!,” said top lawyer Prashant Bhushan.
Salil Tripathi is Chair of writers’ body PEN International’s ‘Writers in Prison Committee’ and board member of English PEN from 2009 to 2013 in the UK.
The noted human rights activist received the Red Ink Award from the Mumbai Press Club for human rights journalism in 2015 and awarded third prize at the Bastiat Awards, New York for journalism in 2011.
On December 6 1992, a sixteenth-century mosque was razed by a Hindu mob, which claimed that the mosque was built over a pre-existing Hindu temple. The demolition of the mosque was followed by worst communal riots in India’s history which lasted two months.
The riots resulted in the death of about 2000 people between December 1992 and January 1993.
On Sunday, several supporters of ruling Hindu nationalist Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) marked December 06 as Shaurya Divas (Bravery Day) to celebrate the day.
However, many Muslim politicians including Asaduddin Owaisi called it injustice, lamenting that those accused in the demolition have been acquitted from the case.

Planning on not having Manning
Dorian Colbert, RosterWatch
Ok, so you’re a Peyton Manning owner. I know things look exceedingly bleak right now, but once you’ve gone and had a good cry, you’re allowed one as an adult, it’s time to make plans in case things don’t turn around. You should have picked up Kerry Collins, knowing that losing Manning would be a possibility, but in case you didn’t, here are a few dumpster darlings that just might save your season:
Ryan Fitzpatrick QB Bills- Fitzpatrick has the confidence of his teammates, and the wherewithal of a Harvard man, to be successful this season. Let’s just hope his offensive line can give him the protection he needs to follow up last year’s 3,000 yard season. With up and coming superstar WR Steve Johnson in his sights, you could do worse than to roll with the “Amish Rifle.”
Colt McCoy- I’ll be honest, I did not have much faith in McCoy thriving in the NFL. His weak arm and aggressiveness were, and still are, big questions in my book. But Chad Pennington was a very similar player, and he was able to find success in the big leagues. McCoy seems to look more and more like the real deal every time he hits the field, and with players like TE Evan Moore and WR Greg Little to turn to, he is being set up to succeed as well.
Rex Grossman- Grossman has the ability to be a pretty decent quarterback for at least half a season. Your guess is as good as mine as to which half that will be. Ride him until the wheels fall off in this pass happy Redskins’ scheme.
Jason Campbell- For the first time in his six-year career, Campbell will have had the same offensive coordinator for two years in a row. Plus, he has job stability and all the weapons at WR anyone could want in Jacoby Ford and Denarius Moore. I dare him not to have a good year… DARE him. | <urn:uuid:dddf5e4f-9aeb-4b0d-a493-bd159a9e663d> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://rosterwatch.com/planning-on-not-having-manning | 2022-01-23T05:47:42Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320304134.13/warc/CC-MAIN-20220123045449-20220123075449-00118.warc.gz | en | 0.981121 | 438 |

in the Premier League. The first or paternal surname in this Spanish name is Martinez, while the second or maternal surname is Romero.
Today we want to talk about the
top facts about Emiliano Martinez
and tell you some special facts about this star.
His football prodigy's career was already on the correct track when he was 16 years old. In fact, he had started playing for Argentina's Under 17s when he was seen by an Arsenal scout. Martinez was flown to London for tryouts and made a good impression.
The Gunners did not waste any time in signing him for £1.1 million, and Club Atletico Independiente was delighted to part with him for that sum.
The teenager had a difficult time adjusting to his new club. In reality, he was a terrified adolescent who didn't speak a word of English. He had a difficult first year at the club because he was far away from his family. Martinez couldn't even play professional games till he was 18 because he didn't have a European passport. As a result, he was limited to simply playing friendly matches.
Martinez was sent on loan toOxford United
in 2012, where he got his first experience of senior English football. That same year, he made his Arsenal debut against Coventry City in the League Cup.
He spent years on loan at a number of different clubs in England. Sheffield Wednesday, Rotherham United,Wolverhampton Wanderers
, Getafe, and Reading are among the clubs. Martininho was never promoted to the main team and had to make do with being a backup goalkeeper.
Martinez didn't get a proper chance until first-choice goalkeeper Bernd Leno suffered a major injury in June 2020. Martinez, never one to pass on a lifetime this opportunity, continued to shine for the rest of the season. He produced important saves that helped Arsenal win their 14th FA Cup title at the height of his stellar run.
Argentina may praise Emiliano Martinez in addition to Lionel Messi. The goalkeeper proved decisive in the Copa America semi-finals, blocking three shots on his goal, similar to his season with Aston Villa.
His time as an understudy is now over. Martinez, who has been recognized for his actual worth at Aston Villa and in Argentina, can help his teams succeed. Emiliano Martinez must definitely make his family pleased now that he has finally managed to take his career to the next level.
“I didn't want to have the worry that I had to wait for 20, 30 games to play, so I opted to go to a club that was a bit smaller in principle and play all the games,” Martinez said in an interview about his decision to quitArsenal
. Every game in the Premier League for a team like Aston Villa is incredible.”
“I promised my father that I would play for the national team, and I will not stop until I fulfill that promise,” he continued.
Martinez appears to have kept his word. He now has a new ambition: “I want to win a World Cup with Argentina.”
Despite being in 11th place in the table, Aston Villa's goalie was able to salvage the team's very points. In the Premier League fantasy game, he was also the most used goalie.
Martinez has now established himself as a capable starter for the Aston Villa and has earned the right to demand as much playing time as he desires.

top facts about Emiliano Martinez
Martininho is the nickname of this footballer. Damian Emiliano Martinez Romero was born in the city of Mar del Plata, Buenos Aires Province, Argentina, to his mother Susana and father Alberto. Martinez is an actual Argentine citizen. Martinez's family origins were discovered through study, and it appears that he is primarily of white ethnicity. Argentina's eastern region is dominated by this ethnic group.
Martininho, as he is known, grew up in his hometown of Mar del Plata with his brother Alejandro. When he talks about how he started playing football at a young age, he always smiles. The goalie is from a low-income household. As a result, his family suffered a great deal in terms of financial hardship. He's seen his father cry late at night because he can't pay his debts.
That was not a pleasant sight for the young goalkeeper to see, and the memories of that night are still fresh in his mind. Needless to say, the child carried his family's financial ambitions when he began a targeted career development atCA Independiente
. It was at the club that he dared to dream of a future in football, along with all the trappings that entail.
When the Argentinian began playing for CA Independiente, his family had high expectations for the youngster's ability to support himself through football. Expectations are finished today, and it's enough to make the entire family happy.

The first team he played for was Independiente and now we want to know about it.
Martinez, who was born in Mar del Plata, began his career with Independiente in 2008. He spent two seasons with the team and joined the Gunners in 2010.
Martinez moved on emergency loan to Oxford United after injuries to Ryan Clarke and Wayne Brown, as well as the expiry of Connor Ripley's loan, and made his English Football League debut against Port Vale in League Two on 5 May 2012, whichPort Vale
won 3–0. Martinez was called to the Arsenal replacement bench for their games against Stoke City on August 26 and Liverpool on September 2 as a backup for Wojciech Szczesny and Lukasz Fabianski, who were both injured. In the third round of the League Cup, he made his Arsenal debut in a 6–1 home win overCoventry City
on September 26.
In the following round, he made his second Arsenal appearance in a 7–5 triumph away at Reading. On October 15, 2013, Martinez was sent to Championship side Sheffield Wednesday on an emergency 28-day loan. He made his debut against Yorkshire rivals Huddersfield Town on Wednesday, November 23. Martinez has his loan extended till the end of the season.
Following his return to Arsenal, Martinez was an unused substitute in Arsenal's 3–0 win over Manchester City at Wembley Stadium on August 10, 2014. Soon after, he made his Champions League debut, assisting Arsenal in a 2–1 group stage wins over Anderlecht. On November 22, he made his Premier League debut as a second-half replacement against Manchester United at the Emirates Stadium, replacing the injured Szczesny.
Because backup goalkeeper David Ospina was injured, Martinez made his Champions League debut on November 26th, keeping a clean sheet in a 2–0 win overBorussia Dortmund
. He was awarded to the UEFA Team of the Week for his "flawless" performance in the encounter. He made his Premier League debut on November 29 against West Bromwich Albion, and then again four days later against Southampton, keeping two clean sheets as Arsenal won both games 1–0.
Martinez joined Championship team Rotherham United on an emergency loan until the end of the season on March 20, 2015. The following day, he made his debut against South Yorkshire rivals Sheffield Wednesday, losing 3–2 at home after allowing two added-time goals. Martinez was an unused substitute in Arsenal's 1–0 win over Chelsea in the 2015 FA Community Shield on August 2, as new acquisitionPetr Cech
played. He signed a season-long loan with Championship side Wolverhampton Wanderers on August 11th.
After making 15 appearances in the first few months of the season, he suffered a thigh injury that kept him out for several months and prevented him from regaining his starting spot. He spent the 2016–17 season at his parent club, appearing in five games for them, including one in the Premier League against West Ham.
He was loaned to Getafe in La Liga on a one-year agreement on August 2, 2017, then he was loaned to Championship club Reading until the end of the season on January 23, 2019. Martinez made his Reading debut on 29 January against Bolton Wanderers and won the Man of the Match award a few days later against Aston Villa.
Martinez came off the bench to make his first Premier League appearance since the 2016–17 season after Bernd Leno was taken off injured during the first half of Arsenal's defeat to Brighton & Hove Albion on 20 June 2020. Martinez finished the season as the club's first-choice goalkeeper and was praised for a string of outstanding performances, with former Arsenal striker Ian Wright describing him as "commanding" and having played "brilliantly" throughout his extended stay in the team.
Martinez was chosen to start the FA Cup Final against Chelsea on August 1st, and he went on to make some key stops to help Arsenal win their 14th FA Cup; after receiving the trophy, he was obviously upset and in tears.
On August 29, Martinez made his Community Shield debut against Liverpool, which Arsenal won on penalties. Following the match, there was widespread speculation that Martinez would quit the club due toBernd Leno
's comeback, and the athlete stated that he wanted to either stay at the club and be the starting goalkeeper or leave permanently.
Martinez was left out of the team to face Fulham on the opening day of the league season, despite reports of interest from a number of Premier League and overseas clubs, notably Aston Villa andBrighton & Hove Albion
Martinez joined fellow Premier League club Aston Villa in a deal for up to £20 million on September 16, 2020. He agreed to a four-year contract. Martinez made his Villa debut on September 21, saving a penalty fromJohn Lundstram
in a 1–0 home win overSheffield United
. Martinez tied Brad Friedel's club record for clean sheets in a season with 15 in his debut season at Aston Villa and was named Aston Villa Supporters's Player of the Season.
Martinez was called up to the Argentina senior squad in June 2011 to replace Oscar Ustari in the match against Nigeria. On the 9th and 13th of October, he was called up for his second senior call-up against Germany and Ecuador, respectively; he was an unused replacement in both friendly matches.
Martinez earned his international debut against Chile in a 1–1 draw in a 2022 FIFA World Cup qualification match on June 3, 2021. On 14 June, he made his competitive debut in a major tournament, drawing 1–1 with the same opponent in his team's opening match of the 2021 Copa America in Brazil's Estadio Olimpico Nilton Santos.
He saved a penalty fromArturo Vidal
in the 57th minute, but he couldn't stop Eduardo Vargas from scoring on the rebound. Martinez saved three penalty attempts in a 3–2 penalty shootout win for Argentina over Colombia in the tournament's semi-final on July 6. He went on to win the tournament with a clean sheet in the final, a 1–0 win over Brazil. For his efforts, Martinez was also won the Golden Glove trophy as the best goalkeeper of the 2021 Copa America.
In 2016, Emiliano married Mandinha. Mandinha Martinez, Emiliano Martinez's wife, is the CEO of MiSuennos Kids, a company that specializes in children's interior design. Martinez's two children are hers as well. Santi Emiliano Martinez (born in 2018) and another child born in April 2020 are among them.
The goalkeeper's mother and father are Susana and Alberto. They are both Argentines who have been by one other's sides in times of need. Emiliano Martinez's parents, above all, are supportive of his career and will go to any length to ensure his success.
Martinez recalls his mother being hungry simply to make sure he and his sibling had enough food for the day. As a result, it's no surprise that the goalkeeper plays with his family in mind and doesn't hesitate to tell them about his triumphs. Alejandro, the goalie's younger brother, is a lesser-known player. He rarely mentions his younger brother, whom we believe to be one of his strongest supporters.
Martinez dominates his area and is strong when coming for crosses, in addition to his great shot-stopping abilities. He had a substantially greater average of 2.09 pressurized claims every 90 minutes with a 100% success rate than Leno. He is famous because of his ease with the ball at his feet and good distribution.
Emiliano Martinez, as a Goalkeeper in various clubs and the Argentina team, has a very interesting statistic, especially in Arsenal. However, in the national competitions in the Argentina team, Emiliano Martinez won Copa America 2021.
FA Community Shield:
2014, 2015, 2020
Superclasico de las Americas:

While some footballers at various levels have certainly had legal problems, Emiliano Martinez has never had a legal dispute in his lifetime.
In 2012, the goalkeeper agreed to a contract with Arsenal that paid him 575.000 Euros (500.000 Pounds) per year.
He's been playing professional football for a long time, but he's never actually made a lot of money. His current net worth is estimated to be in the region of 3.7 million euros (3.4 million Pound). His market value is €35.00 m.
Martinez's personality might be described as a peaceful, fun-loving person who is emotionally intelligent and open to sharing details about his personal and private life. Like most people born under the Virgo Zodiac Sign, he has a positive outlook on life and knows how to pass the time.
Martinez enjoys spending time with his family and friends, as well as watching movies, traveling, keeping up with racing games, and playing table tennis, among other things. Martinez is a strong fan of animals, especially dogs. At their green garden, he appears to be training with his dog.
The goalkeeper, like his brother and countryman Sergio Romero, is said to have had a shortage of playing time. Fans may rest assured that, given his recent success and possibilities for consistency, his ratings will skyrocket in no time.
Selena Gomez, Cardi B, Miley Cyrus, and Demi Lovato are just a few of the non-sporting celebs who share his birth year of 1992. The summer Olympics were hosted in Barcelona, Spain, while the Winter Olympic Games were held in Albertville France that year.
Emiliano Martinez has not yet identified himself with a religion. As a result, it's impossible to say if he believes or not. However, the probabilities are heavily in favor of Emiliano Martinez's parents having reared him as a Christian.

My younger daughter turned 20 last month, and I realized it is too late for me. As the United States of America is rapidly and distinctly being remade before our eyes in the image of President Donald J. Trump, it is not enough simply to shed our alliances, instigate trade wars, gut environmental regulations, hold apocryphal nuclear arms negotiations, and traumatize babies at the border. It is not even enough to personally bully dissenters, disparage immigrants, and accuse liberals of being traitors.
For the revolution to be complete and permanent, and to make America genuinely great again for the ages, we must remake our own families in the image of Trump. While my wife is my equal and our grown children compost, it may not be too late for you. If your household is still in its impressionable stage, please learn from someone whose golden opportunity has sadly passed him by.
To my daughter: You are more than a daughter. You are an ornament. You are a physical reminder of what a previous wife looked like before she got old and fat. You will seek unconditional love from me but will receive it only in highly conditional forms which you must perpetually earn and earn again with verbal praise, undying loyalty, and furtive glances. Your sitting on my knee as a child will gradually evolve into an eternal figurative lap dance. You will spend my money knowing there are indeed strings attached, and those strings will ultimately extend into your marriage bed. Finally, you are my implicit shield and spokesperson when scurrilous charges of groping and sexual assault find your dear old dad.
To my son: You are my Mini-Me, with a strong emphasis on mini. You are on this earth to finish my unfinished business and give me the credit. You will be convinced you are living your life when in reality you’ll be living a B-movie version of mine. You will suffer in comparison to me and that suffering is among my greatest gifts to you. While the suffering in itself will not make you me, it will steel you the way my father’s disapproval steeled me and trained me to run roughshod over everybody and everything. Your handful of conquests will never be fully yours, but if you numb yourself with enough favorable social media posts you might be able to delude yourself for a few hours. In this life you do not need a genuine profession. Being my occasional surrogate will more than suffice.
When it comes to women, feel free to pick up where I left off in my 20s or last weekend. With the possible exception of your sister, all young women who meet the physical criteria were created as trophies, and all trophies seek a shelf. Let me have some vicarious fun. And maybe some actual fun.
My son—my slightly defective clone—do not seek the truth. Rather, determine what you want to be true and work backwards from there. Divide and conquer, and once you have done so, label all subjects friends or enemies. Never forget that the truth resides in the sheer mass of people willing to go along with your version in exchange for flattery, patronizing, or a cash payment. Always remember that I am the ultimate source of power—all that remains after concepts, principles, faith, values, historical precedent, morality, and even God Himself have fallen due to poor ratings.
To my wife: Your greatest value lies not in your physical beauty or mental sharpness, or even in your willingness to function as my appendage, but rather in your complete awareness of your own disposability. Your worth is inseparable from your ability to see those who came before you and learn from them; from your willingness to make room for those who currently share me; and to step aside gracefully for those who will follow. You are a essentially a container of milk with an approaching expiration date. Our children will always see you as mother, but I will always see you as a more together version of Sharon Stone’s character in the movie Casino. You were the “it” girl for a time. Treasure the experience always and please accept your parting gift at the door.
To my dog: Who the hell are you and who let you in here? You are cuter than me, will steal press attention and leave fur all over the rug. Get out. Wait a second. I might be able to get you your own show.
To my family as a whole: The world is ours to exploit, mock, manipulate, and plunder. Ask not what you can do for your country but what meetings can be granted in exchange for an unsecured loan. In this life you are blessed. Don’t pay it forward. Pay nothing and make sure our accountants write it off as a loss. Remain loyal to each other because you know where the bodies are buried. When you see a family member down on his luck, walk into his betting establishment and purchase three-and-a-half million dollars in gambling chips with small unmarked bills.
As for modesty, not a big fan. But sometimes it absolutely must be faked. Consider it a photo op. Do not express contrition without cameras around, and always retract it moments later. You don’t need to be right every time. You just can’t ever admit you’re wrong.
I have given all of you the most important gift that can be bestowed upon another human being—an Americanized version of a German name. Go out and imprint that name on hotels, golf courses, colognes, reality shows, and sham universities everywhere. Above all, know this—I can take it all away. | <urn:uuid:b06d42de-06f2-45bd-8870-34721e4ee325> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://thedailybanter.com/2018/07/10/how-to-run-a-trump-household/ | 2022-01-23T05:26:16Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320304134.13/warc/CC-MAIN-20220123045449-20220123075449-00118.warc.gz | en | 0.950857 | 1,154 |

Cancer, you know how to make the best seduction moves in this first Monday in August. Thanks to Venus' attraction, your eyes will sweep anyone you want off their feet.
The Daily Horoscope sees your passion as an equally strong and well-structured asset. You make a clear, guilt-free distinction between sex and love.
If you're single, you'll daydream about Platonic love. You'll come closer to attractive people, but you'll be more interested in their body than their soul.
If you're ready to share your feelings, take a step forward. Take on your responsibility and defeat the fear of getting hurt.
Finally, the stars say that if you make a promise today, you should stay true to your word. The other person isn't willing to deal with deception.
You appear to be kind of reserved at work. It could be said that your extreme subjectiveness isn't your best asset for success.
The responsibilities of others are completely unimportant to you; you think that only your work is crucial and elementary. Your prediction says that's where you're dead wrong.
Get your tax payments up to date. Don't leave any of them hanging, because extra charges could be frankly terrifying.
Finally, don't run the risk of handing your money over to shady investors. Astral influences say your sixth sense will be your best ally here.
You'll have a pretty poor memory today. If you don't write down every important piece of information, you're in serious trouble.
Try to keep appetite in check by avoiding feasting your eyes instead of your stomach. The zodiac wheel points you out as a person with a seriously sweet tooth, who's quite likely to fall prey to temptation.
Take care of your dental health

She's played on Centre Court at Wimbledon, she's won a doubles
title on the WTA tour, and she's the No. 48-ranked female tennis
player in the world. But when it comes to matters financial,
Nicole Pratt, a 27-year-old Australian, is a galaxy removed from
Venus--as well as from Serena, Anna, Lindsay and Martina. While
the leading stars command upward of $75,000 for a one-night
exhibition, Pratt is lucky to earn that much playing six months
In 1999, her 11th year as a pro, Pratt made $136,547 in prize
money--nothing to sneeze at, but nowhere near, say, the $3.3
million Martina Hingis won. Pratt earns additional income as a
member of the Australian Federation Cup team. How much depends
on how far the team advances; last year she earned about
$14,000. But she has no endorsement income and plays no
exhibitions. (On the other hand, she has no agent to siphon 15%
of her prize money.) She expects her income to be only a little
more this year. How does a self-described "middle-class player"
make ends meet?
Because Pratt earns her salary on four continents, her tax bill
is more convoluted than tennis's ranking system. As a rule, 25%
to 30% of her income is ceded to Uncle Sam--or his Uzbekistani
equivalent. Pratt wins more than half her prize money at the
four Grand Slam events, at which 7% of her winnings go back to
the WTA tour for operational costs, and an additional amount,
about 2.5%, is diverted to the tour's pension fund.
Her biggest expense, like that of most tennis pros, is airfare.
It's a good year if Pratt spends less than $30,000 on flights.
To avoid pricey last-minute fares, she plans her playing
schedule and purchases all her airline tickets for the year in
January. Never sure how long she'll last in a tournament, she
pays a premium for the ability to change reservations without
incurring a penalty. Friends have tried to persuade her to fly
first class--"You arrive at events feeling so much fresher,"
says doubles specialist Rennae Stubbs--but Pratt won't pony up
the extra cash. She often upgrades to business class on long
international flights, using some of the 100,000 frequent-flier
miles she accumulates annually.
Pratt's fiscal pet peeve is the $10,000 she shells out for
hotels annually. By dint of her ranking, she often plays small
events at which players' lodgings aren't covered for the
duration of the tournament. In Rosmalen, the Netherlands, last
month, Pratt and her partner, Erika DeLone, won the doubles
title and $4,500 apiece but had to pay $100 a night for their
hotel room. "Can you imagine a professional basketball player
paying for his own hotel room before a big game?" says Pratt, a
member of the WTA players' council who has been lobbying for
tournaments to pick up the tab for all players' accommodations.
Pratt, DeLone and another Australian, Annabel Ellwood, share a
coach, Lorenzo Beltrame, who travels with them to most of the 30
or so events they play each year. The women split his travel
expenses as well as his $1,500-a-week salary. Pratt also spends
around $20,000 annually to train at the LGE Sports Performance
Center in Orlando. There she has access to a personal fitness
trainer, a sports psychologist, exercise equipment and a
nutritionist. "It's a lot of money," she concedes, "but it's the
best investment I've made in my career."
To avoid living out of her duffel year-round, Pratt keeps a base
in Orlando. She, DeLone and Ellwood share the $15,000 annual
rent on a furnished 2.5 bedroom apartment. Pratt spends fewer
than 100 nights a year there, but, as she says, "it's home."
Last year she purchased a Ford Explorer--used--for $20,000. On
the road she spends $3,000 a year on car rentals.
Out of her remaining disposable income, Pratt pays moderate
phone bills for calls to Australia (about $1,000 a year), spends
as much as $200 a week on string jobs ($20 a racket) during
tournaments and sends "a little something" to her younger
sister, Kylie, a masters candidate in education at Campbell
University in Buiss Creek, N.C., who is trying to earn her LPGA
tour card. "I guess like most people I spend my money almost as
fast as I earn it," Pratt says.
She's hardly pleading poverty, however. Aside from her
six-figure income, Pratt receives free gear from Puma ("Whatever
Serena doesn't take," she jokes) and free rackets from Prince.
When she's at events, she gets her meals--and, often, haircuts,
concert tickets and even greens fees--gratis. "No doubt it's a
good life," she says. "But for the vast majority of players
outside the top 20, making enough money is always in the back of

I didn’t want others to be curious and never have the opportunity that I’ve had because of an absence of path or information. That stated, here’s my entire expertise of changing into a glad member of MySexCam. There’s no have to obtain any app, MySexCam simply works.
At a moment’s discover, I went from searching to being a premium member prepared to talk with attractive cam girls. I made it my primary precedence to turn into conversant in the girls on the site. In truth, I needed to set time aside to do cam-to-cam classes with as many women as attainable. Check out the website and see which girls are live in your space. Here are another scorching cam sites we’ve reviewed lately in case you needed to verify out others. MySexCam comes in within the top three of our selections. Here you probably can view shows at no cost and chip in if you want to go personal or spy on different people’s live session.
If you wish to be successful you have to impress your followers and get extra daily. Follow our ideas and tips and you will be making money very quickly. The site visitors is clearly less compared to MySexCam however it isn’t a deciding issue IMHO. If your show is nice, you’re going to make money anyway.
They create accounts and luxuriate in the videos that they like. There are people who want to have more than free content material. They buy tokens and enjoy additions features of the website. Members who buy tokens normally need to go for more content material, extra movies, more personal expertise, and other privileges.
From tipping the novice cam models, or taking a special gal into a personal live chat show. This is where you will more than likely be spending most of your time, and I can’t really fault you for that. When you will first visit it, you’ll most likely feel like a kid in a candy shop, and will not know the place to begin. Since even free members get access to every chat room and can watch all of the adult action happening live, you will not be lacking options. With that being said, buying Wire Transfer contradicts what I’m saying. Users even have the option to spy on other members’ personal chats.
It is a perfect answer for mobile phone addicted individuals. You can scroll the content and chat with other members. If you don’t wish to share your bank card particulars with the service, enjoy the free account. Most of the options of the web site are related you possibly can watch girls having enjoyable, having sex, spy on them, and do it at no cost or in personal.
Obviously, this results in some actually steamy interactions. Reading a few of the feedback is what gave me the vibe that this was a friendly site. Some members/viewers, come back often to talk with sure babes or couples, and there’s a relaxed, chatty ambiance happening. That’s fine on one degree, however if you want harder stuff, you can even get it as long as you utilize your tokens. The MySexCam website is totally secure for both performers and viewers because of SSL knowledge encryption. MySexCam BB social network, where you possibly can post content, create and observe channels, and receive regular gifts.
Medical Insurance For Models
Many people promote their nudes to make some extra cash in addition to performing. Yes, there are individuals thinking about buying this type of content from you. You’re allowed to set the value for each piece, but remember that MySexCam takes a selected share from all of the revenue generated by your sales. All the videos and pictures a model has available on their profile can only be sold in tokens.
There is a cell model of the service, however it’s not really helpful for utilization in public places. The mobile model is helpful and convenient if you wish to get along with a girl and it isn’t handy to use your PC. It can also be convenient in case you are sharing your content material. The cell model is responsive and user-friendly.
You even join free but will want to buy tokens or a membership so as to get private and attractive. There’s masses here with some unique movies, recordings galleries, lots of of profiles and a nice deal of interactive enjoyable. MySexCam free accounts have access to all the media in small-sized version.
This video from your non-public show will mechanically seem on the «my media» web page about quarter-hour after the end of your session. A non-public session costs 30 tokens per minute and the model receives 1.50 USD per minute. I know that lots of sex cam free people are sceptical about live chat and cam websites because of the method in which that some set up their charges.
There are also recordings that you pay to view, and in addition galleries. That’s underneath Top Videos and Pics, and there were over 7,440 of these, and their costs to view differ from 30 tokens to over 200. There had been also 12,900 galleries with the cost to view is around 50 to 100 tokens. There’s a viewing screen at 480 x 340 which you’ll be able to resize and enlarge, and the streaming came in fine, more typically than not. I did have some slow to load pages, but which may have been a problem with my connection. The site is not very ‘heavy’, and in the main, every thing ran smoothly.

Dealers will now be able to schedule status and content updates on their Facebook more easily following changes to the social media website.
Communications can now be planned in advance and there has been additional functionality to the administration controls, allowing various access rights or roles to be granted for different users such as manager, content creator, moderator and advertiser. This makes defining the responsibilities of administering the page across different job roles within a dealership easier.
Chris Caines, Pinewood marketing executive, said: “These are small changes but actually make Facebook much easier for all kinds of businesses to use, including dealers.
“Now, dealers using Facebook can schedule updates in advance in a single session, rather than having to revisit their page every time they want to make a change. This is very useful for scheduling promotions and out-of-hours activity.”
Scheduling also helps avoid the common problem of flooding users timelines with multiple content updates, he added. However, it would be wise to choose times carefully - many updates will be set by businesses for familiar times such as 9am or noon, for example, and content updates could get lost within this peak activity.
Chris continued: “Giving defined roles to the dealer staff who can access your Facebook page along with different levels of access means that managing the page is potentially easier, with different team members being delegated different tasks.
“These roles could change the way brands integrate Facebook into their marketing communications strategy, moving away from one-person, social channel management.” | <urn:uuid:d901d523-67c6-43e5-820e-57c5419a3134> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://www.am-online.com/news/2012/6/1/facebook-changes-are-dealer-friendly-/31080/ | 2022-01-23T07:20:05Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320304134.13/warc/CC-MAIN-20220123045449-20220123075449-00118.warc.gz | en | 0.943242 | 312 |
The Key To Avoiding Spiritual Peaks and Valleys
July 2, 2013
“Every valley shall be lifted up,
and every mountain and hill be made low;
the uneven ground shall become level,
and the rough places a plain.”
I was never much of a builder, but one thing I loved to do when I was young was to build Soap Box Derby cars. If you’re not familiar with Soap Box Derby races, you put your car at the top of a hill, get someone to give you a shove, and try to make it down the hill first.
Gradually, you begin slowing down until you come to a complete stop. And if you want to go again, you have to take your car back up the hill and have someone give you a shove again. You can go as long as you want, but you have to keep starting over.
I know many Christians who are like that in their spiritual lives. As long as someone is there to drag them back to the top of the hill and give them a push, they’re doing just fine. They go from one seminar or conference to the next emotional high. They live their Christian lives from experience to experience.
God’s desire for us, however, is that we’d walk with Him daily. He wants us to allow Him to fill our emotional cup – rather than some event. So spend time with Him daily, walking with Him every minute of your day. When you have constant fellowship with God, you’ll be less likely to fall into spiritual valleys after coming off the peaks.
AVOID SPIRITUAL PEAKS AND VALLEYS BY WALKING CONSTANTLY WITH GOD AND ALLOWING HIM TO FILL YOUR CUP DAILY.

By Chris Churchill, Five Star Ranch Senior Staff Writer
Horse camping was not something I was raised doing. In fact, I had never thought about camping with my horse until a few years ago.
My husband and I were trying to come up with ideas for a cheap family vacation. We had done the Disney World trip, the cruise, and the nearby Six Flags. I was yearning for something more traditional and something to do with my horse. A vacation camping with my horse was perfect.
At first the idea of taking my horse with me on vacation and camping out sounded outrageous and logistically too difficult. However, once the idea of a horse camping vacation was in my head, I couldn’t get past it.
I decided to study my options. One of the first things that surprised me was that many state and national parks have horse camping facilities. There are also specifically designed businesses that cater to the horse camping crowd. You have to do a little research and it takes a little more planning, but anyone can camp out with their horse.
Here are some tips I learned a long the way that might save you some trouble. This article focuses on camping at your trailer rather than in the back country with a pack. That will have to be another article. Anyway, here are tips for camping at your trailer.
- Have a good trailer. The trailer doesn’t have to be pretty or expensive, trust me the first time I went across the country I was hauling a 32 year old steel trailer that had about 6 different colors of paint. It was ugly, but it was sturdy. I wasn’t trying to impress anyone; I was just trying to haul my horse. I’ve since had to graduate to an aluminum 4 horse because now I’m pulling more horses. My trailer is still not fancy, but again, I’ll take reliable over pretty any day.
- Research facilities in your area. Get on the state parks web sites and search for horse camping. Surprising there are a quite a few private horse camping facilities as well. Tap into your horsey friends and horse trail organizations. Ask about where they stayed and the facilities available. A lot of the best horse places are not well advertised. You might only learn of them by asking around.
- Practice camping out with your horse before you leave home. I was amazed how my list of Must-Haves evolved the more I camped out. Camping out with my horse was a great dress rehearsal so I could work out the details to keep me from being miles from my can opener when I had canned soup on the menu.
- Decide: how rustic do you want to go? Do you want to sleep in your trailer (the gooseneck is ideal), in a tent or in your vehicle? I have a number of friends who define camping with their horses as parking their trailers in a field and cranking up their generators to catch their favorite TV show on their satellite TV.Some of the luxury live-in quarters I’ve seen in some trailers are nicer than my home. (I’m not into home decorating so it’s not hard to be nicer than my place.) If you want to sleep in your trailer and it’s not finished out, you might look into doing it yourself or at a minimum adding some insulation into the roof. We put rigid foam insulation with foil backing on the inside roof of our trailer and that helped immensely keeping the inside of the trailer more moderate.
- Consider creating an outdoor living space for relaxing and cooking. You can do this either by using an awning on your trailer or a pop up tent cover that can provide shade and shelter from the rain. This makes cooking outdoors more enjoyable and if you have a screened in version it can even reduce the number of bug bites.
- Consider: what horse accommodations do you want? Horse Panels, Stalls or High Lines? Some people only want to camp in places that have covered stalls for their horses. This is nice but in many horse camping locations especially the more primitive areas you may have to set up high lines (horses are tied above their heads but can move around some to graze) or lightweight horse panels for portable corrals. Hobbles might be an option if your horse has been trained to use them, but they work better in open field camping, not when you are near traffic or have neighbors closeby.You will need to know in advance what the site has to offer so you can bring the appropriate gear.
- Don’t forget the feed and water buckets. When you’re camping out with horses, you almost cannot have enough buckets. I have built in feeders in my barn and on my first excursion I got to my site and realized I had forgotten feed buckets. I’d thrown in water buckets, but forgot to grab the feeders. Fortunately I had smaller buckets in the back of my trailer and was able to make do.
- Bring more hay than you think you’ll need. Extra hay will allow you options like if you decide to stay an extra day. If you’re riding longer days, your horses may need a little extra roughage than when they are standing around at home.Our trailer has a rack on the top for extra storage that is perfect for carrying hay. It’s a pain putting hay up there, but it does keep it out of the way once it’s up there. The one caution I will say about using a overhead rack on a trailer is don’t use bungee cord to secure the hay on the roof. We did that once and in a freak wind gust, the hay was lifted up and the bungee stretched and unhooked releasing hay all over the highway. It was a scary few minutes until we could clear the hay, and we lost about 4 bales to the road. So, tie the hay securely with non-stretchy rope after you cover it with a tarp. The tarp will protect the hay from getting wet and fading in the sunlight.
- Carry horse boots with you. We always carry emergency horse boots in our saddle pack and we’ve used them several times when a horse lost his shoe or gets a stone bruise miles from the trailhead. When you are a day’s drive from the nearest farrier, having a horse boot makes the difference between cutting your trip short or continue riding with a boot. Many endurance and trail horses ride all the time in boots. Make sure the boots fit your horse before you leave home. You might also pack a pair of clinchers in your saddle bags so you can repair a loose shoe on the trail.
- Bring water. Equip your trailer with a water tank for you and your horses. Ideally you want to camp near a source of clean water for your horses and potable water for you so you don’t have to use your hauled in water, but that isn’t always available. There are several manufacturers of water tanks that fit in unused corners in your trailer. Get one or two of the tanks and test how far the water goes for you. Monitor the water so you don’t get caught without at a bad time.Many horses won’t drink when they are on the road or in a new place. Often if you add molasses or Kool-aid to the water it will entice them to drink.
- Bring extra tack. We spent a month on the road this last summer and before we left I threw in about 4 extra bridles. Guess how many we used???? Okay, only two, but still, you get my point. When you are riding everyday and in rough terrain, you are more likely to break a rein or a bridle than normal. I can’t remember breaking a rein in the last two years, and then we went through two in the intense summer riding trip. Having the extra tack made it a simple problem to fix. I just grabbed another bridle.
Horse Camping – a growing trend
The best part of horse camping is that it is something you can do with other horse friends. Often people plan trips with horse buds and it turns into a fun social event. The growth of organized trail rides and competitive trail events has helped the growth of horse camping into a popular new horse activity.
Looking for additional resources on horse camping? Below are some books to help make your camping experience a positive one. | <urn:uuid:ca104c99-f1e0-4964-92a7-c040cfa159c1> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://www.fivestarranch.com/trail-riding/horse-camping-horse-vacation-trend/ | 2022-01-23T06:44:26Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320304134.13/warc/CC-MAIN-20220123045449-20220123075449-00118.warc.gz | en | 0.967859 | 1,744 |

Universities Form Florida Consortium of Metropolitan Research Universities to Accelerate Innovation toward Student Success
Higher education is rich with tradition: from century-old institutions to the youngest of campuses, our nation’s colleges and universities shape not only the minds, but also the futures of countless students. While the goal of higher education has always been to graduate mature, intellectual contributors to society, the profile of a “traditional” student has evolved.
The notion that a college student immediately enrolls in a four-year university upon high school graduation and has no commitments other than on-campus, academic success not only is dated, but also could not be further from today’s reality. An increasing proportion of postsecondary students — particularly students enrolled in urban universities, many of whom are minority, first-generation, and underrepresented in higher education, balance education with career and family obligations, often requiring support services beyond those of a “traditional” student.
This brief explores how three public metropolitan research I universities in Florida abandoned norms to form an unprecedented alliance — the Florida Consortium of Metropolitan Research Universities (Florida Consortium) to accelerate innovation aimed at increasing student success and, ultimately, ensure an increasing number of Floridians complete a postsecondary degree.
This brief is divided into three sections. In Part I, we explore the origins and evolutions of the University of South Florida (USF), University of Central Florida (UCF), and Florida International University (FIU), paying particular attention to the demographic composition of their respective student populations. In Part II, we provide an overview of postsecondary degree attainment both in the U.S. and in Florida. Based on workforce projections, both national and statewide leaders acknowledge the need to focus on postsecondary degree attainment. In Florida, this momentum was exemplified in the state’s adoption of the SAIL to 60 initiative (SAIL stands for “Strengthening Alignment Between Industry and Learning”), which calls for 60% of Floridians to hold a high-value postsecondary degree, certificate, or training experience by the year 2030. Building on each institution’s history and capitalizing on the state’s momentum, in Part III, we explore formation, successes, and challenges of the Florida Consortium—early lessons upon which the Consortium is building its strategic framework, intent on elevating student success for more first-generation, minority, and underrepresented students. | <urn:uuid:6e624235-9a99-4acd-9b32-ab3429644201> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://www.helios.org/latest/briefs/universities-form-florida-consortium-of-metropolitan-research-universities-to-accelerate-innovation-toward-student-success/ | 2022-01-23T05:10:28Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320304134.13/warc/CC-MAIN-20220123045449-20220123075449-00118.warc.gz | en | 0.922598 | 495 |
Passengers from the Middle East will soon have more destination choices as Lufthansa is further expanding its route network to South America. From 16 November 2015, the airline will offer year-round flights to Panama City for the first time, subject to government approval.
Flying from Doha and arriving early morning at Frankfurt, an Airbus A340-300 aircraft will fly five times a week between Frankfurt and the economic metropolis in Central America. Flight LH 484 will take off from Lufthansa’s Frankfurt hub in the morning at 10.15 a.m. and arrive in Panama in the afternoon at 4.40 p.m. (local time) after a flight time of 12 hours and 25 minutes. The return flight LH 485 will depart from Panama City in the early evening as a night flight and land at Frankfurt Airport the following morning.
“This new route is good news for both our leisure and business passengers here in the Middle East. With booming trade between the Qatar and Panama, the new connection via our hub in Frankfurt opens more channels and possibilities to reach South America. Our passengers will also have ample time to relax at our lounges in Frankfurt during their connecting time,” said Karsten Zang, General Manager, UAE and Director Gulf and Pakistan, Lufthansa German Airlines.
On board, passengers can expect to find Lufthansa’s usual high level of comfort. A total of 298 seats will be available in Business, Premium Economy and Economy Class, featuring the latest cabin design in all classes: seats in the new Business Class can be converted at the touch of a button into a comfortable horizontal bed measuring 1.98 metres in length. In the new Premium Economy Class, increased legroom and a greater seat pitch await passengers.

although I still like a few of his movies, this is no longer one of them, on recent review.
I recently purchased copies of Manhattan and Annie Hall.
I watched the latter first and it charmed my socks off again. One classic scene after another signals the height of Allen's art in this hilarious masterwork. Manhattan is a different story.
Perhaps my recent viewing of Wild Man Blues has hipped
me to what an whining, pampered egomaniac Mr. Allen is.
Perhaps it's the irony of his Chaplin-like dalliances with young women that have set me against him. But I now watch Manhattan
and see a pathetic, overblown Allen literally feeding lines to his
fellow actors to give him some smarmy comeback that never fails to show how intellectually superior he is. Different from Annie Hall, Allen is no longer the underdog but an ugly, obnoxious
His characters in Manhattan, are cardboard. They are not real and
the situations are not real. I have no feeling for anyone in this
movie, except Woody, who I feel contempt for, given his massive
and unfunny self-indulgence. It's pathetic to see Allen set up
Hemingway with lines that a teenager would never say in a million
years, just to trump up his flaccid ego. Everyone in this movie actually feeds him lines to trump up his ego.
Like Stardust Memories, this one shows Woody at his self- indulgent worst. This movie looks wonderful and sounds wonderful with the Gershwin score, but on further review, this
one's hollow and ultimately a maddening tribute to an egomaniac.

George Daly emigrated to New York from his native Castlegregory, Co. Kerry in the late 1920s and, armed with an 8mm cine camera, he paid his first visit home to the Dingle Peninsula in the summer of 1949. He spent those sunny days filming in Castlegregory village and its environs, and also in the villages of Camp and Cloghane. Featured on the film are the local people as they emerge from the church after Sunday mass and congregate in Castlegregory village, some of the women wearing the traditional black shawls. Water is drawn from the pump in the village, and children in the schoolroom laugh in excitement at being filmed for the first time. Work on the farm, the horses and carts, the mowing of hay and the old black Ford cars are all featured in this fascinating document on social history. In early 2017, Kerry Co. Council sponsored Tralee based oral historians Maurice and Jane O’Keeffe of Irish Life and Lore to compile an oral history collection with people who remembered and who worked on the Tralee & Dingle Narrow Gauge Railway. The line operated from 1891 until its closure in 1953. One of the people recorded for the oral history project was Tom Daly, nephew of George Daly. He remembers travelling with his mother on the line from Castlegregory to Tralee in his childhood days. He very kindly granted permission to Irish Life and Lore to edit and improve the quality of the old film, and to record a voiceover with him in which he identifies many of the people featured on the film. The original film had previously been viewed only by the Daly family. The footage runs to 24 mins.
This footage was discovered in 2017.

Population ageing is now a near global phenomenon and is perceived as presenting major challenges not only in regions with an already high representation of older people but also in low and middle income countries set to ‘grow old before they grow rich’. This course will consider the process and implications of ageing at both the population and the individual level and policy responses.
The course will be structured into five sections. The first will focus on demographic change and the causes and the course of population ageing in various world regions. This element will include explanation and discussion of population dynamics (how populations age) and inter-related social and economic changes associated with demographic transition (why populations age) and their implications for both older and younger generations.
The second section will focus on the process of ageing at the individual level including an overview of recent biological theories of ageing; consideration of family and social support for older people and life course influences on ageing.
In the third section the emphasis will be on trends and differentials in the health of older populations. This will include discussion of measures of health and disability and current debates about the future health status of the older population in different settings and prospects for further changes in longevity.
The fourth section will consider different models of health and social care provision in older populations; associations between ageing and work and debates about economic implications of population ageing and different pillars of economic support for older people, including social pensions.
The final section will deal with policy responses to population ageing at the international and national and regional level.
15 hours of lectures and 10 hours of seminars in the LT. 2 hours of lectures in the ST.

Quiz 5 – Irene (and Tim) Ryan
October 24, 2013
If you've just checked our blog, we're playing a game on our Facebook “Media Heritage, Inc.” and “Big Broadcast” pages. If you'd like to play, “like” one or both of those Facebook pages and on Mondays, we'll post a photo of an old radio “second banana”…a secondary or character actor from the 1930s through '50s. You'll be instructed to email a guess as to the identity to our email and from the correct answers, we'll pick a winner for a prize each week on Wednesday night! Then check back here at the blog, later in the week, for the answer.
Long before she achieved fame portraying “Granny” for nine seasons on television's Beverly Hillbillies, Irene Ryan enjoyed a solid career in film and on radio. Born in Texas in 1902, Irene Noblette grew up in San Francisco and performed in local theater there. When she turned 20, Irene married Tim Ryan and they formed a vaudeville comedy team called, not surprisingly, “Tim and Irene” that was very similar to another vaudeville couple: George Burns and Gracie Allen. Like Gracie, Irene played what's known as a “Dumb Dora” character. The couple made a couple short films and was the summer radio replacement for sponsor Jello's Jack Benny in 1936. In 1942, the couple divorced and Irene kept her married name, working as a solo comedienne. She landed a regular “second banana” role on The Bob Hope Show in 1948-1950 as a “sad faced chatterbox,” replacing Vera Vague's character. She also toured with Hope overseas. During the 1950s, Ryan remained active in film and early television playing a variety of character roles, but always with that distinctive voice. In 1961, producers were casting for a new comedy, The Beverly Hillbillies, as a vehicle for Buddy Ebsen. Veteran actress Bea Benaderet was offered the role of Daisy “Granny” Moses, but turned it down because she was so busy with other projects. (Benaderet would go on to play Cousin Pearl, Jethro's mother, on the show). Irene Ryan was then cast as Granny at age 58, five years older than Ebsen. As Granny, Ryan achieved much popularity and was nominated for Best Actress Emmy Awards in 1963 and '64. After The Beverly Hillbillies was cancelled in 1971, Ryan appeared on Broadway in Pippin, where she received a Tony Award nomination. It was while performing in Pippin in 1973 that she suffered a stroke and died shortly after at the age of 70. With no children and an estate in the millions, the Irene Ryan Acting Scholarship was created through the Kennedy Center, and young actors and actresses benefit from the award to this day. This photo, from the late-1930s, features both Irene and Tim Ryan. | <urn:uuid:dd3f36d5-e91e-45bc-a97a-dd98a4acfa2f> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://www.mediaheritage.com/irene-and-tim-ryan-quiz/ | 2022-01-23T05:55:14Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320304134.13/warc/CC-MAIN-20220123045449-20220123075449-00118.warc.gz | en | 0.978818 | 640 |

The Rector of Kogi State Polytechnic, Lokoja, Dr. Salisu Usman Ogbo, said the institution has discovered an examination fraud syndicate and certificate racketeers operating within and outside the Lokoja campus.
The Rector, who disclosed this at a press briefing on Monday in Lokoja, also paraded 12 suspects arrested by the security department of the institution over alleged culpability in the fraud.
He said that following intelligence report about existence of examination “Magic Centres” both within the campus and in some parts of Lokoja, the management launched investigation into it.
“We immediately set investigative machineries in motion to ascertain the authenticity of the report. Lo and behold, the centre being controlled by a syndicate of some disgruntled elements in our system was discovered right in the heart of Lokoja.”
The Rector, who projected some pictures of students writing in an obscure place, said: “these are our students at one of the ‘Magic Centres’ writing their examination while examination for the course(s) in question was going on in the approved halls on the campus.
“We were able to unravel this academic decadence with evidence on Thursday, 5th November, 2020.
“Our team of securitymen was able to burst one of the centres called ‘Champion Lodge’ at ‘Sarkin Norma’ after the Primary School.
“Even as the suspects escaped before the arrival of the security team, a total of 32 answer scripts on different courses, with students’ particulars written on each, were retrieved from ‘Carlifonia Lodge’ at the same ‘Sarkin Norma’ where the scripts were kept for onward transmission to their principal(s).
“Today, Monday, 9th November, 2020 we were also able to arrest additional 12 participants of the said ‘Magic centre’ who variously confessed to their involvement,” he added.
Ogbo said that the security team had also arrested one Victor Attah, the owner of the room that was used as the “Magic Centre”, alongside one Daniel Ikoja (AKA Progress), the owner of the room where scripts were kept for onward transmission.
He said that a related issue was the forging of results by students.
“So far, we have been able to establish one case involving an external result used to secure admission into the Polytechnic.
“In all, we have expanded our dragnet with the view to tracing all those directly or indirectly involved in the fraud, and we will ensure that they are all brought to book.
“After our investigation, we will ensure that all the collaborators are brought to book in accordance with our laws,” he said.
The Rector warned that management would not tolerate any act capable of tarnishing the credibility of the institution, its results and certificates. | <urn:uuid:c5febcf5-12b4-4708-82a9-c2aaeb583f09> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://www.nextedition.com.ng/kogi-poly-bursts-exam-fraud-syndicate-arrests-12-students-at-magic-centre | 2022-01-23T06:56:29Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320304134.13/warc/CC-MAIN-20220123045449-20220123075449-00118.warc.gz | en | 0.970845 | 611 |
(Originally published in the October 2008 Housing Journal)
Public Improvement Districts (PIDs) — Good Tools for Residential Development
Previous Housing Journal articles have reviewed how infrastructure improvements may be paid through Special Assessment Districts (SADs), Tax Increment for Development Districts (TIDDs), and Development (Impact) Fees. Each of those options has a component that can be used in residential construction, but none has as much promise for purely residential developments as Public Improvement Districts (PIDs).
Similar to TIDDs (which work best in large mixed-use developments) in many respects, PIDs are allowed to issue general obligation bonds that affect property taxes within the district. TIDDs are allowed to tap gross receipts and property taxes, whereas PIDs are only allowed the use of property tax. Since these bonds do not affect the bonding capacity of the municipality or county in which the development is located, they are relatively easy to have approved even where the local community has reached its bonding capacity. Because the bonds do not affect the amount of income to the municipality or county, they also do not carry the burden of having to prove their worth to representatives of areas of the community outside of the properties within the District. It appears elected officials may be more willing to approve increased property taxes for other areas of the municipality or county if it doesn’t affect the affordability of the area they represent.
PIDs are limited in that the general obligation bonds cannot exceed 60% of the final estimated value of the properties in the District. This shouldn’t be a problem when vacant land is converted to homes by a developer, or when the developer sells the improved lots to contractors, since the cost of barren land in New Mexico is relatively low. For example, one acre of unimproved land in Rio Rancho is selling around $40,000, but a ¼-acre lot improved with water, power, natural gas, sewer, and paved street sells for around $70,000. The limitation is designed to prevent surplus funds being collected.
In many other ways PIDs share some of the same benefits as TIDDs:
- District is its own political subdivision with its own board;
- District qualifies for NM Finance Authority funding, and bonds may be sold at public or private sale;
- District may enter into contracts, sell property and levy taxes or fees for operation and maintenance costs;
- Contracts for design, engineering, financing, construction and acquisition are exempt from the State Procurement Code;
- A broad list of improvements may be funded via these mechanics, and include building schools, libraries, police and fire stations and dedicating them to the municipality or county to operate and maintain.
PIDs have also been used successfully in redevelopment projects where cities seek to revitalize their downtown areas by upgrading streetscapes and can even be used to finance private security services.
This is the final installment of our series on infrastructure financing options in New Mexico. All of the articles are available online at www.nmhba.org/pages/memberservices.html in our 2008 Housing Journal publications. NMHBA created “Selecting the Infrastructure Financing Option that Fits Best” in 2006 for members to use when discussing the various infrastructure options with their local municipality.

Philly Health-Care Students Are Gathering PPE for Local Medical Workers
Founded by health-care students from Jefferson and Temple, PPE2PHL helps protect frontline workers.
Every day, healthcare professionals put their own safety on the line in order to treat patients. Since the start of the coronavirus outbreak, though, the risks that come with the job have exponentially increased, primarily due to shortages of personal protective equipment (PPE).
Because of the rising demand, some PPE distributors are allocating certain types of PPE to healthcare organizations, resulting in a lack of proper medical masks, eye gear, gowns, and gloves for doctors, nurses, and other healthcare staff.
To help mitigate this issue, a group of local healthcare students created an initiative to collect PPE for Philly frontline workers. Launched on March 24th, PPE2PHL relies on PPE donations from local businesses, and — with the help of nearly 200 volunteers — collects those donations via a no-contact courier service. The supplies are dropped off at the Philadelphia Department of Public Health, who then distributes the PPE to area hospitals, clinics, and health centers.
In addition to providing protective equipment, PPE2PHL seeks to help community members learn how to make their own face masks to wear when going outside their homes.
The resource — a collaboration with Sew Face Masks Philly — shows you how to make three kinds of cloth face masks with elastic or fabric ties and an optional front pocket to insert filter material. That way, you can help save the medical PPE for healthcare personnel, while still protecting yourself and others while at the grocery store, pharmacy, or outdoor trail.
PPE2PHL was started by four medical students studying at Jefferson and Temple. Executive director Terry Gao, a fourth-year med student at Jefferson, says they came up with the Philly program after being inspired by a similar one in New York City.
“When [we] found PPE2NYC, I thought, ‘This is a model we could definitely do — and need to do — here in Philly,’” Gao says. So far, their efforts have been successful. As of April 12th, the grassroots program has donated 6,158 surgical masks, 21,000 gloves, 920 respirators, and nearly 800 face shields, plus hundreds of goggles, scrubs, gowns, and shoe covers.
If you’re interested in helping PPE2PHL, you can do so by donating supplies, volunteering as an onboard caller, or contributing to their GoFundMe page. If you are a healthcare worker or center in need of protective equipment, you can request PPE here.

It just gets freakier and freakier, doesn’t it? The more teasers I see of FX’s American Horror Story: Coven, the more I’m convinced this will the most bizarre season yet. In support of the upcoming premiere on October 9, 2013 at 10pm, FX has unveiled a new poster, a new ‘Burn’ teaser video, and an extended cut of ‘Initiation.’
Coven tells the secret history of witches and witchcraft in America. Over 300 years have passed since the turbulent days of the Salem witch trials and those who managed to escape are now facing extinction. Mysterious attacks have been escalating against their kind and young girls are being sent away to a special school in New Orleans to learn how to protect themselves. Wrapped up in the turmoil is new arrival, Zoe (Farmiga), who is harboring a terrifying secret of her own. Alarmed by the recent aggression, Fiona (Lange), the long-absent Supreme, sweeps back into town, determined to protect the Coven and hell-bent on decimating anyone who gets in her way.

An Ann Arbor-based band I've been in since the 1980s came out with a new recording this summer. The group began as a composers' workshop that soon began performing its all original repertoire at clubs and festivals in Michigan and elsewhere. The drummer, Jon Krosnick, a professor at Stanford, organized a tour for us in California two summers ago, and this past July we received a standing ovation for our debut performance of the CD at the Ark in Ann Arbor.
I've long played the role of musical director for the group, composing and arranging much of the material. More info about the band, and some past recordings to listen to, can be found at LunarOctet.com. | <urn:uuid:a7950329-5153-4e74-be0e-8a094675ae4d> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://www.sustainablejazz.com/2019/10/ | 2022-01-23T05:04:30Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320304134.13/warc/CC-MAIN-20220123045449-20220123075449-00118.warc.gz | en | 0.958301 | 241 |
Meet Edith Anne and her very noble and tolerant big brother, Bishop. Edith Anne is 9 1/2 years old and has always played the pleasant but somewhat annoying loving little sister to Bishop (11 1/2 years).
Over the last year, poor Edith’s arthritis in her carpi (wrists) have caused a significant deformity to her front legs making it very difficult to walk, let alone run and play. She looked like a little stubborn old women hobbling about but still refusing to give up.
We took X-rays and her condition had gotten much worse. The deformity to her wrist joints was putting more strain on her damaged joints, making the degeneration escalate and creating more pain.
Her Dad, Earle, wanted her to have an active life to enjoy; so we called in Jeff Collins of K9 Orthotics. Jeff is a trained registered prosthetic technician and has a prosthetic limb himself. He personally understands what’s it like to be on the receiving end of a prosthetic device. http://www.k-9orthotics.com/
Edith Anne visited Jeff in early March. Jeff and his team designed and built braces for Edith Anne’s front legs. During the two weeks it took to get the braces made, Earle started wrapping Edith Anne’s legs with a bandage material to get her used to the feeling of a brace.
Once Earle got the braces, he started to apply the braces for hour or so three times a day. Jeff showed Earl how to adjust the tension on the strap to make it comfortable for her and what to watch for if there were problems.
Earl said: “It takes a while to get the tension correct on the velcro straps – the blend between too tight (blood flow) and too loose (chafing and lack of support ). She flops on the couch every morning and night to get braces on and off. This makes her dad’s back feel a little better. ”
Within a week Edith wore them up to 10 hours a day. It didn’t take long for little Edith to start pestering brother, Bishop although there was still an obvious lameness to her gait, her attitude was back!
Now, a month later, Edith can wear the braces for a full day. She is back in true form with Bishop enjoying playing with her again and she doesn’t look lame … just happy … really really happy!
Thanks Jeff of K9 Orthotics! You made Edith young again and gave Bishop back a play mate. | <urn:uuid:c3e79df3-e149-4e49-84a8-be40ab03144c> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://www.trurovet.com/canine-health/ediths-story-orthotics-rescue/ | 2022-01-23T06:24:42Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320304134.13/warc/CC-MAIN-20220123045449-20220123075449-00118.warc.gz | en | 0.976829 | 540 |

A show dedicated to Black Italian designers featured on the official Milan Fashion Week calendar for the first time on Sunday 27 September.
Organised by the “Black Lives Matter in Italian Fashion” group, the digital show was titled “The Fab Five Bridge builders: We are made in Italy” and was sponsored by Camera della Moda.
It showcased five black designers at Milan Fashion Week scouted by Michelle Francine Ngonmo, the founder of Afro Fashion Week Milano and mentored by designers Stella Jean and Edward Buchanan.
Currently in its fifth year, Afro Fashion Week Milano has created an international platform for designers of African origin in Italy and abroad.
Camera Della Moda, the organisers of Milan’s prestigious fashion week have faced criticism for a lack of diversity in the choice of its designers.
Italian-Haitian designer Stella Jean was the only black Italian designer featured in February’s event.
The Rome-based designer said she wouldn’t return to Italy’s flagship fashion show until others joined her on the bill. Jean and fellow designer Buchanan sent a letter to the board of organisers asking “Do black lives matter in Italian fashion?”
That letter demanded action, including collaborative efforts on diversity and creating a dialogue to support black Italian designers.
Some of Italian fashion’s largest names including Gucci, Dolce & Gabbana and Prada have all been involved in controversy about racism after releasing culturally insensitive designs in previous years.
Following the killings of George Floyd and Breonna Taylor in the U.S., the Black Lives Matter movement gained momentum in 2020, with brands trying to show solidarity through social media.
“The big brands, I won’t say names, are more concerned about Black Lives Matter outside, not at home. I won’t lie, we won’t tell fairytales, because racism is also here in Italy,” the founder and president of Afro Fashion Week, Michelle Francine Ngonmo, said in Milan.
Designers at the event said that their work had previously been dismissed by some people as non-Italian.
“Most people basically think that you are an ethnic designer and most of the time they ask me ‘where is it made?’ They don’t believe it’s made in Italy because the first thought that comes to them is ‘where is it imported from?’ I have a constant struggle of trying to explain to people that I live in Italy, I work in Italy and everything is produced in Italy,” Joy Meribe, creative director of ModAf designs said at an Afro Fashion Week event. | <urn:uuid:c53ee69f-4677-4327-b23f-1cba78113831> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://afronews.de/africans-italy/black-african-italian-designers-showcase-designs-at-milan-fashion-week/ | 2022-01-24T16:29:04Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320304572.73/warc/CC-MAIN-20220124155118-20220124185118-00198.warc.gz | en | 0.966028 | 556 |

With The Underground, Darryl’s owner Nia Grace opens a new door
The restaurant has come together thanks to ACC’s new Neighborhood Business Nurturing program, an effort that promises to help strengthen local businesses, especially those owned by women and people of color. Northeast administrators say it’s recognition that the university must use its deep pockets to support neighboring communities. And this is one of many similar initiatives for small businesses that will be rolled out to universities across the region this fall for the sake of diversity and inclusion.
The $ 153 million LightView dormitory – among the first in a wave of privately funded student housing projects in Boston – had been a flashpoint in Roxbury for years. With 825 beds starting at around $ 1,300 per month, many neighbors feared this would increase rents and result in displacement. The university retorts that the creation of more dormitories decreases the demand for existing accommodation in Roxbury. Either way, the first floor retail business would inevitably become the face of the building for the surrounding community.
Finding the right “dance partner” that would work for both students and Roxbury was equivalent, said John Tobin, the university’s vice president for municipal and community engagement. Especially after last summer’s racial calculation over the death of George Floyd, and pressure for local institutions to support communities of color by diversifying the people they do business with.
“Everyone in light of the events of the last year has taken stock individually, especially institutions like Northeastern,” Tobin said. “Sometimes you say, ‘How can we do better here, and how do we really help our neighbors and work with our neighbors? “”
Grace – who, in addition to owning Darryl’s, also co-founded the Boston Black Hospitality Coalition – was an inspired choice, said Tobin; everyone in Northeastern knows their food. But it was Grace who helped shape the partnership, which ultimately led to the creation of the ACC Small Business Program, which is being piloted in Boston.
That’s because when Northeastern first approached Grace, they came up with a pop-up restaurant, one where she cooks her food on the street and serves it on-site in the dorm.
“It was like okay, we run a full service restaurant and what you’re asking us to do isn’t realistic, especially if you ask us seven days a week,” Grace said. She pushed the university to invest in her and then to do the same for other women and business owners in BIPOC.
Ultimately Northeast and ACC agreed, linking Grace to developers and designers to build a permanent space. Working with Grace led ACC to create its new small business initiative, said Rae Pearson, regional manager of the developer. She said they intended to use a similar model to bring other local small business owners into a second dormitory project they had planned in Northeastern.
“We’ve assembled a team of resources: planning, project management, marketing and mentors, you name it,” Pearson said. “The conversations we were having directly with Nia led us to this revelation that we needed to do more to help small businesses support wealth and generational spending” in the neighborhoods in which they are building.
The business has designed a lease that allows Grace to operate on rent free at first, then ramp up as her business takes hold. Jessicah Pierre, communications director for the Black Economic Conference in Massachusetts, said that was the type of support institutions like Northeastern should provide.
“These universities also have a responsibility to invest in our communities economically and culturally,” she said. “Especially for students of color looking to stay in touch with people who are like them.”
Now they can grab Grace’s Cajun tomato flatbreads, red velvet waffles and seafood okra for breakfast and lunch. The venue will host events in the space throughout the week, and its walls will serve as a revolving exhibition space for nonprofit teens. Artists for Humanity.
Grace said she was thrilled to serve both her community and the university.
“I have seen the neighborhood change radically without being able to ask the powers that are the real agenda or the real reasoning,” she said. With the reach of Northeastern, “I designed my first restaurant in this project. We have gone from the pop-up to the real new brick and mortar.
And other local universities are launching similar programs.
Across the river in Cambridge, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology takes a similar approach in its new Launchpad Dining Room in the Stratton Student Center. Through a partnership with the CommonWealth Kitchen food incubator, the university now hosts three immigrant-owned food businesses: Bibim Bom, Las Palmas and Carolicious. Together, MIT and CommonWealth worked with student representatives to choose the types of food they wanted. MIT rents the dining space from CommonWealth, which then sublets it to restaurants, with rents tied to their gross income.
The university said the move stems from the July 2020 announcement by President Rafael Reif that MIT would work with more minority-owned businesses as part of its efforts to combat systemic racism on campus. The school plans to host up to seven businesses through the partnership as it grows.
Jen Faigel, executive director of CommonWealth Kitchen, said having a turnkey operation on a college campus is an incredible opportunity for the small business owners she works with.
“Basically they come in with their pots and pans and the space is set up and there’s a built-in clientele,” she said. “There is a huge opportunity for these companies to build a strong business and team and operational capacity to take them to the next level. “
Faigel focused on harnessing institutional finance as a way to help support small businesses, and worked with Harvard, the University of Massachusetts, Boston College and other local schools to put sauces in moles and peanuts prepared by its chefs belonging to immigrants in their menus. She said she is now working with Sodexo to do the same for Colleges of the Fenway, and anticipates a rollout of the incubator’s products on campus convenience menus and stories early next year.
Faigel said the confluence of COVID-19 campus catering contracts, the struggle to hire workers and the calculation of structural racism have all made universities wonder how they can do better, and she is glad that as an established non-profit organization, it was able to step forward and help.
“We see this as a really powerful model of economic development on the recovery side to support these businesses,” Faigel said.
For Grace, opening The Underground with Northeastern as a partner is important, she said, in that it is a model of how other schools can better support the communities in which they are. are found.
“If I hadn’t been through this space, I would never have known it,” she said. “We were never on each other’s agenda.”
Now, she can’t wait to build a restaurant that brings the two worlds – the students and the city around them – together.
“It’s one of those places that really bridges that gap.” | <urn:uuid:b98173e8-6752-4bda-9c18-3e5851dcfb5d> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://bcn-stay.com/with-the-underground-darryls-owner-nia-grace-opens-a-new-door/ | 2022-01-24T17:05:24Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320304572.73/warc/CC-MAIN-20220124155118-20220124185118-00198.warc.gz | en | 0.968874 | 1,525 |

A 28-year-old man was standing on the sidewalk when a white car drove by and someone inside fired shots about 11:40 p.m. in the 4000 block of West Grenshaw, according to Chicago Police.
The man was shot in the left ankle and was taken to Mount Sinai where her condition was stabilized, police said.
About an hour earlier, two men were wounded in a shooting in the Washington Park neighborhood on the South Side.
The men, who didn’t know each other, were standing outside near a group of people when a male neither of them knew fired shots, striking them both at 10:47 p.m. in the 6200 block of South King Drive, according to police.
A 36-year-old was shot in the foot. He was taken to Trinity Hospital where he was treated and released, police said.
A 19-year-old suffered a graze wound to the leg and was taken to the University of Chicago Medical Center where his condition was stabilized, police said. It was unclear who the intended target of the shooting was.
At 9:18 p.m., a man was critically wounded in a West Chatham neighborhood shooting on the South Side.
The 45-year-old was walking near a gas station at 9:18 p.m. when someone opened fire from an alley in the 8700 block of South State, according to police.
He was shot in the head and taken to University of Chicago Medical Center in critical condition. He might not have been the intended target of the shooting, police said.
About 4 p.m., a man was shot in the Austin neighborhood on the West Side.
The 44-year-old was approached by a gunman about 4 p.m. in the 5200 block of West Lake and shot in the leg, according to police.
He was taken to Stroger Hospital, where his condition was stabilized, police said. The man was not being cooperative with investigators and further details were not available.
A man was shot in the foot about 1 p.m. in the West Englewood neighborhood on the South Side.
The 23-year-old was walking in the 1600 block of West 72nd Street when someone began shooting at him and he was struck in the foot, according to police.
The man, who also may have been firing a gun, was taken to University of Chicago Medical Center in good condition, police said. His gunshot wound may be self-inflicted.
A 17-year-old boy was the first to be wounded in a shooting Wednesday in the Roscoe Village neighborhood on the North Side.
The boy was standing outside when a male he didn’t know walked up and fired shots at 1:37 a.m. in the 4400 block of West Oakdale Avenue, according to police.
He was struck in the right leg and was taken to Illinois Masonic Medical Center where his condition had stabilized, police said.

WHAT a joy to watch a relatively new band enjoying themselves under the watchful eye of one of Scotland’s funk legends.
That is exactly what happened on Monday night at Pizza Express Live (Holborn) when The Tomorrow Band put together a thrilling set comprising an intoxicating mix of saxophones, booming guitars and super backing vocals.
First, as an eleven piece band (quite electric and exhilarating in their own right) and then in the second set joined by ex Average White Band frontman Hamish Stuart. Up a notch or three in gears the music went.
Young meets old. Young thrive on the back of a master. The audience rejoices in admiration (at how good The Tomorrow Band are) and adulation over the ageless Stuart who still makes the hairs on the back of your neck stand up as he delivers a delicate A Love Of Your Own and an upbeat Let’s Go Around Again – a song that provoked some members of an otherwise impeccably behaved audience to dance around in ever decreasing circles. What fun. A perfect antidote to Omicron misery.
The Tomorrow Band, drawn from a number of established Scottish bands, seemed to thoroughly enjoy the fact that they were playing live. Playing songs from their debut album Inside/Outside – the likes of Time At Last, Flipside, Get On It and Popcorn – they demonstrated the breadth of their talents. Stuart’s influence on their music – he produced the album – is obvious from the start. Close your eyes and you could think you were listening to the Average White Band. A potent mix of funk and soul.
Issac Sutherland and Lyle Watt took turns to show their mastery of the guitar (sometimes it seemed like a competition as to who could outperform the other) while Konrad Wiszniewski (Scottish National Jazz Orchestra) demonstrated that he is a formidable player of the alto saxophone.
Alongside him, Johnny White thrilled on tenor saxophone, Eddie Miller provided the vocals, while Lorna Thomas quietly infused proceedings with her unerring bass guitar. All orchestrated and overseen with great competence by Barry Gordon. Drums and percussion were played with gusto by Scott Jamieson and Fraser Heeps respectively.
Outstanding as the first set was, Stuart’s introduction into the mix lifted proceedings up a notch – the band thriving off Stuart and vice versa. Person To Person and Midnight Rush were followed by Whatcha Gonna Do For Me (sublime alto sax provided by Wiszniewski whose solo went on .. and on). More please.
Yet these mighty songs were punched out of the ring by Stuart’s tribute to Muhammad Ali (How The Mighty Fall). Watt and Sutherland took turns to thrillingly outsmart each other on their respective guitars. Sheer ecstasy.
With the upbeat Let’s Go Round Again proving a fitting finale, the only disappointment was that the show had to end.
A super night’s entertainment. New band meets a legend. Result: sublime live music. You can’t beat it. | <urn:uuid:17d46ff8-a014-440e-8f50-3a8be159fdaa> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://closeupculture.com/2021/12/07/hamish-stuart-and-the-tomorrow-band-live-music-review/ | 2022-01-24T16:35:40Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320304572.73/warc/CC-MAIN-20220124155118-20220124185118-00198.warc.gz | en | 0.951606 | 628 |

Horton the Elephant, the Cat in the Hat and all of your favorite Dr. Seuss characters spring to life onstage in Seussical JR., a fantastical
Horton the Elephant, the Cat in the Hat and all of your favorite Dr. Seuss characters spring to life onstage in Seussical JR., a fantastical musical extravaganza from Tony-winners, Lynn Ahrens and Stephen Flaherty.
Transporting audiences from the Jungle of Nool to the Circus McGurkus, the Cat in the Hat narrates the story of Horton the Elephant, who discovers a speck of dust containing tiny people called the Whos. Horton must protect the Whos from a world of naysayers and dangers, and he must also guard an abandoned egg that’s been left in his care by the irresponsible Mayzie La Bird. Although Horton faces ridicule, danger and a trial, the intrepid Gertrude McFuzz never loses faith in him. Ultimately, the powers of friendship, loyalty, family and community are challenged and emerge triumphant!

April 22, 2015
In spite of the wet weather we are still working on flushing the lines and trying to finish before any blackflies appear.
The camp is open this week and on the weekend. It will not be open next week except by appointment or by chance if we are at the camp. The maple tarts are gone for this year but we still have some maple syrup, maple candy, maple butter, maple sugar and maple vinegar.
April 19, 2015
Beautiful but cool morning. The camp is open for syrup pickup and we still have some maple tarts and maple candy. Try a sip of maple vinegar which is a new product for us this year.
Washing up is now underway and the lines are being flushed. So the season is over but it seems the work is never finished.
April 17, 2015
The season is now over. The syrup yesterday had a prebud flavour so we stopped boiling. It has turned out to be an average season in spite of the late start. We now begin the cleaning up phase which means washing all the equipment and flushing the pipe lines.We hope to finish before the black flies appear. The camp is open this weekend as usual.
Today we heard the red shouldered hawk. So they are back. Later this year than usual but maybe we just did not hear them.
April 16, 2015
There was frost last night so we expect one more day of sap. The syrup is dark amber but still no hint of prebud flavour as the trees are still dormant. As soon as the buds swell the syrup takes on an unpleasant flavour called buddy and the season is over even if the sap flows.
It should be a very pleasant day at the sugar bush as soon as it warms up a bit.
April 15, 2015
The sap is still running a bit but this may be our last day of production. We now have enough amber to fill all our back orders so we are finally caught up on all our orders. In spite of our concerns about the season it is turning out to be an average year.
The first bluebirds appeared this morning and are already busy nest building. A very welcome sight. .
April 13, 2015
We finally made some amber syrup and are busy filling back orders. It will be a challenge to fill all our orders but there is still frost in the ground in the sugar bush and the sap may continue to run in spite of the very warm weather. The camp is open as usual from 10 t0 5 each day.
April 12, 2015
Looks like the season is rapidly coming to a close due to the warm weather. However there was some frost last night so there should be some sap today.This will be the last weekend for the Kettle Boys and Shanty Men but our camp will be open as usual.
The first migratory robin appeared here yesterday and we heard a saw whet owl “the sugar bird” at our Clayton sugar bush. No sign of the red shouldered hawks as yet this year which is unusual and disappointing.
April 11, 2015
Once again the sap ran all night and we have a backlog of sap. Our production is building up and we are 2/3 or more towards an average season. The sap sugar content has averaged about 3% which is very good for our sugar bush. There are also a lot of dissolved minerals, mostly calcium, in the sap which precipitates out in the syrup. This helps produce a good quality syrup. Both conditions may be due to the long cold winter.
All our activities are in full swing today and tomorrow and it looks like a warm and pleasant weekend.
April 10, 2015
This morning the sap tanks are full as ether sap ran all night. So we will be busy again today. The weather next week may be too warm for sap and the season will be winding down. This is likely to be the last weekend for the Kettle Boys and Shanty Men but our main camp will be open through April.
April 9, 2015
As predicted yesterday was a good day for sap but not as much as April 7 so we got caught up on our processing. Not very cold last night but a small snow fall will help recharge the trees for another run of sap. So far no amber syrup but this should change as the weather warms this weekend.
April 8, 2015
Yesterday was our best day yet. Not a record but very welcome after our slow start. Not as warm today so not so much sap. All equipment is working well, so no incidents to report. I hope it continues.
April 7, 2015
It promises to be a very good sap day. We had a good frost last night and temperature today should be plus 6. It will be a busy day at the sugar bush.
April 6, 2015
In spite of the rather cool weather the sap ran very hard yesterday and we had our best run yet. In most years the first week of April is the best week for syrup making in this area and this year seems to be shaping up the same way. Very little amber syrup so far but it will probably come later this week. Our camp is open as usual but the other activities are not operating until next weekend.
April 5, 2015
It was warmer yesterday than forecast which made for a very pleasant day at the sugar bush. Looks like today will be equally pleasant. Lots of visitors yesterday so we were up early to replenish our stock of maple butter. Alexander George our young fiddler entertained yesterday and plans to return this afternoon. We may be boiling in the late afternoon if the sap runs as it did yesterday. All our activities are operating and we have fresh syrup to taste. A new product this year is maple vinegar which is made with pure maple syrup and has a nice maple flavour. Try a sip.
April 4, 2015
Quite a change from yesterday with 2 to 3 centimeters of fresh snow. However the sun is peeking through and it promises to be a nice but cool spring day. There may not be any fresh sap today but we have enough from last evening for a short boiling session later today. Waterproof footwear will be necessary if you wish to visit the Shanty Men and Kettle Boys. We will have a warm up fire and fiddle music this afternoon to celebrate Maple Weekend.
April 3, 2015
What a beautiful morning. The sun is shining, its warming up nicely and the sap is running. After the slow start this year we finally seem to be experiencing a more normal spring. Our camp is open, all our activities are operating and we have fresh syrup for sale.
April 2, 2015
We had a small run of sap yesterday and we expect things will pick up later today and tomorrow as a warm front moves through this area. We are gearing up for a busy weekend and all our activities will be in full swing. On Saturday and Sunday we have a fiddler coming to provide some special entertainment.
Well March ended like a lamb and I hope this is an indication of things to come. We made a small amount of syrup on Monday and there was a small run of sap late today. The rest of the week looks promising and I expect to be boiling all day and into the evening.
March 29, 2015
It was a busy weekend at the camp. Many people took advantage of the sunny weather for their annual visit to the sugar bush. Its always a special pleasure to welcome return visitors, some of whom have been coming since we opened over 40 years ago.
The sap began to run today at 1.00pm but not enough to boil. It may continue into the evening and hopefully enough to start up tomorrow.
Next weekend is Maple Weekend when many sugar camps including Fortune Farms will be putting on special attractions. See mapleweekend.ca for more details.
March 27, 2015
Well we did have a run of sap on Wednesday night and Thursday and we were able to make some more syrup. But then the cold weather returned and no let up predicted until Sunday. Next week looks promising but I think I have said that before this year. Everything seems to working well. I should admit that I scorched a pan this past week when the sap level got too low.They say you are not a fully qualified sugar maker until you have scorched a pan. I achieved that status several years ago so now I guess I’m over qualified.
On a more favourable note, our neighbour reported hearing a red shouldered hawk in our Clayton sugar bush. Another neighbour reported seeing a red tailed hawk. The hawks are one week later than usual but its great to know some of them are back.
Our camp is open as usual all weekend and the Kettle Boys and Shanty Men are operating. We have fresh light and light medium syrup for sale but we are not filling large orders yet.
March 24, 2015
Everything is frozen up again this week with the return of very cold weather. A snowy/rainy weather system is moving in on Wednesday which may stimulate some sap flow on Thursday. The camp is open daily from 10 t0 4 and we have fresh syrup, maple butter and other maple products for sale..
March 22, 2015
No sap today but we made some very nice syrup yesterday. The Shanty Men and Kettle Boys still have sap to finish boiling so they will be operating and will have their fires going. Our camp is open for a taste of fresh syrup and some taffy on the snow.
March 21, 2015
The sap ran yesterday and into the evening so we will be boiling later today. The Shanty Men and Kettle Boys will also be busy.There will be a fire in our fire pit to provide a warm up spot as you walk the trails. Its typical maple syrup weather with a bit of snow to cover the bare patches and add a festive air to the maple trees.
March 20, 2015
The sun is shining this morning and it is warming up. We should have a run of sap later today. The jet stream has finally returned to its more normal path which in large part accounts for our improving weather. We are very fortunate to escape the very heavy snowfalls in the maritimes. It would be next to impossible to operate a sugar bush in such conditions
March 17, 2015
As predicted the sap ran all night and the tanks were full this morning. We made some very nice syrup today but once again the cold weather has returned and we are unlikely to have any new sap until Friday. We are ahead of last year so maybe we will have a “normal’ season.The camp is open every day and the trails are good for walking as the snow is packed and frozen.
Its 8.00pm and the sap is running and we expect will run most of the night as the temperature is above freezing. We will be able to boil again tomorrow morning. Finally the season seems to be under way.
Mar 15, 2015
Its 9.00am and light snow is falling which is forecast to end this morning. This afternoon looks promising with sunny breaks and plus 3 degrees. The warm spell may continue and we could have a small run of sap on Monday. We are always hopeful. The camp is open and the Kettle Boys are finishing their first batch of syrup in their kettles.
Mar 14, 2015
Not very nice weather today with possibility of freezing rain in the Ottawa area.This may not reach our area as we escaped the freezing rain and snow that fell in Ottawa on Friday. Rain or shine the camp is open, Kettle Boys are here today and tomorrow and we have some fresh syrup for taffy on the snow.
Mar 11, 2015
Well the season has started. We made a small amount of syrup yesterday so there is some fresh syrup to taste. Of course it froze hard last night and it is cold today so that was just a teaser. Hopefully next week things will pick up.
Mar 8, 2015
Tapping is now finished and we are waiting for the first run of sap. Forecast is for warm weather on Tuesday on Wednesday so we may have sap this week. The jet stream is now moving from the deep south to a more normal pattern so the spring like weather may continue. Lots of squirrel damage on our tubing in some areas. The squirrel population is up due to the very high seed crop on all the trees a year ago. There is also some deer damage in areas close to the deer yard but this is normal. The next step is to get all the sap transfer pumps running, the reverse osmosis unit assembled and rinsed and the evaporator rinsed and ready for the first boil. There is always lots to do to get ready at the start of the season.
Mar 1, 2015
Finally the weather has moderated and we were able to start tapping. Very slow going this year as the snow is deep and very soft so snowshoes are not much help. May not be any sap flow until mid March or later
Feb 22, 2015
It’s been three weeks of very cold weather and no end in sight until March 1. Our plan to tap in late
February has been delayed by at least a week. We hope we have time to finish tapping before the weather warms and the sap begins to run. Some people say we are having an old fashioned winter but we may be setting some new records so folklore is not always accurate.
Feb 2, 2015
It’s Groundhog Day and there will be no groundhog shadow today as it is very cold and snowing. This means an earlier spring according to folk legend but so far we have had a cold winter and no sign of warmer weather. In any case, it is time for us to get ready for the coming season and of course that means tapping the trees. We plan to do this in late February and be ready to collect sap the first week of March. | <urn:uuid:dc5f1f95-2a34-4d19-b15f-eb7e33a0aeeb> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://fortunefarms.ca/2015/04/22/current-season-updates-2015/ | 2022-01-24T17:21:58Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320304572.73/warc/CC-MAIN-20220124155118-20220124185118-00198.warc.gz | en | 0.972974 | 2,864 |

KUALA LUMPUR, 12 January 2021 – Whilst the global economic effect of the COVID-19 pandemic has posed challenges at almost all industries in 2020, Funding Societies has served as an accelerator for FinTech adoption – and, in the case of financial services – it has led to an increased use of digital financing solutions.
2020 performance review
Echoing this, the SME digital financing platform in Malaysia has successfully disbursed more than RM650 million to-date, amid the recent year being dominated by the COVID-19 outbreak. This strong performance further solidifies its leading position in the industry with more than 60% market share, having disbursed RM6 billion regionally.
Wong Kah Meng, Co-founder and Chief Executive Officer of Funding Societies Malaysia, said, “2020 has been the most tumultuous year for many companies. However, we have emerged stronger than ever, achieving major milestones as we remain focused on our mission in supporting both micro, small and medium enterprises (MSMEs) and investors on our platform. We remained nimble and had stepped up efforts on both the SMEs and investors’ fronts. This includes proactively reaching out to our MSMEs from the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic in Malaysia to gauge ways on how we can further support them in these difficult times while keeping our investors’ best interests in mind.”
The platform has since offered deferment and extended deferment programs to qualified MSMEs, ensuring a win-win situation for both the MSMEs and their investors. On the investor front, Funding Societies has successfully onboarded 50,000 registered investors to-date, despite the volatile investment environment. “Aside from a greater awareness of digital investment platforms in recent years, the growth in our investors base can be attributed to increased correlation across traditional asset classes such as stocks and bonds, which thus calls for greater need for investment diversification beyond those asset classes,” added Wong.
“We also successfully launched notable partnerships with various industry players as part of our efforts to expand our reach to more SMEs, including U Mobile, Razer Fintech and TM Info Media (via Yellow Pages platform), to name a few. These strategic partnerships have enabled us to reach out to creditworthy MSMEs, by leveraging on our partners’ MSME network and data, with consent, and offering them tailored financing solutions,” remarked Wong.
Catapulting Funding Societies into the spotlight as a preferred digital financing solution in recent years is its unique business model of providing access to financing to thousands of MSMEs, many of which are traditionally underserved or unserved by conventional channels.
Funding Societies has since maintained an average default rate of around 3% via its multi-pronged risk assessment approach, including continuously monitoring and analysing the impact of COVID-19 and the Movement Control Order (MCO) on their MSME clients, reviewing existing MSMEs’ exposures, and implementing action plans for impacted businesses.
Outlook for 2021
As the most hard-hit segment, MSMEs continue to have the Government’s substantial support in helping them to recover from the impact of the pandemic, via the PENJANA stimulus package worth RM35 billion and the additional measures announced in the expansionary 2021 Budget.
On the digital financing industry-focused incentive, Wong expressed, “We are appreciative of the Government's confidence in digital financing as a viable financing solution for MSMEs. The additional RM50 million allocation to digital financing platforms in matching investment grants as announced in the 2021 Budget for instance, is very timely given the challenges that local businesses face, to ensure they can bridge their short-term cash flow needs whilst their business recovers. We laud the Government’s continuous support and recognition of the industry and this certainly bodes well with our mission to become the leading digital financing platform for all MSMEs in the country.”
“Based on our forecast for 2021, we expect to disburse more than RM1 billion in financing cumulatively, as the economic environment stabilizes and recovers. As one of the key verticals of the FinTech industry in Malaysia, we believe that digital financing is well positioned to be at the forefront of driving Malaysia’s digital financial inclusion,” Wong concluded.

If you haven’t got a chance to get tickets for Summer Jam this Sunday don’t be disappointed. TIDAL is teaming up with Hot 97 to exclusively livestream the event via their app this weekend. Given TIDAL’s track record with streaming events so far this should be a good one. I remember Hot 97 used to do it via USTREAM but the results were usually subpar. A couple of times they even aired it on music channel FUSE but it wasn’t live and by then the concert had come and gone.
This is quite a treat though as you can catch the opening acts on the Festival Stage starting at 2pm and then watch the rest of the show that concludes usually at 11pm. That’s nine hours of content.
Read more about the Hot 97 x TIDAL collabo below and let us know if you will be watching the stream or attending the actual show. I’ll be out there….
June 5, 2015 (New York, NY) – WQHT HOT 97 FM, the #1 station for Hip Hop and R&B, is excited to announce it has partnered with global music and content platform, TIDAL. Beginning at 2:00 p.m. (EDT), on Sunday, June 7th, TIDAL will exclusively live stream TIDAL X: HOT 97 Summer Jam, the biggest Hip Hop concert there is, from MetLife Stadium in New Jersey!

TIDAL users can view the show on TIDAL’s website and both desktop and mobile apps.
“HOT 97 began streaming Summer Jam in 2012 as a way to connect with our audience and fans around the world who may not be able to attend the live event,” states Deon Levingston, General Manager of Emmis NY. “In 2014, more than 1.3 million viewers tuned in to the stream across multiple distribution partners. Given the value of the Summer Jam brand, the performances and behind-the-scenes action, we’re excited to have an exclusive partner like TIDAL behind this year’s event. Through this partnership, HOT 97 is not only able to provide fans with the hottest content, but also able to work with the biggest emerging music platform out today. As the Digital Age progresses, radio must progress with it. We’re excited to work with TIDAL to expand HOT 97’s presence, as well as give viewers a taste of the live action via the stream”
The TIDAL X: HOT 97 Summer Jam live stream will consist of performances from both the Festival Stage and Stadium Stage, as well as backstage interviews, Live Broadcast room, and more!
HOT 97 Summer Jam begins at 2:00 p.m. (EDT) with performances by Travi$ Scott, B.o.B, Joey Bada$$, DeJ Loaf and Teyana Taylor on the Festival Stage.

Letting go and surrendering to God is difficult, especially for people like me who have a strong urge to remain in control. Not only do I have control issues, but also throughout my life I have leaned heavily and even been proud of my independence.
“No I don’t need any help.”
“I can do it myself.”
“I can do it all.”
One prayer practice that has helped me yield my ego to God is using my imagination: I place into God’s hands whatever circumstance is troubling me. I give Him my concerns and fears. I visualize placing those I pray for into His loving care.
Not that this isn’t always easy. I reach out with shaking hands, open them slowly, and, to be honest, with great hesitation, let go. And not only once, but over and over again, giving God everything in prayer.
Hard lesson to learn.
But the other day, God stretched me even further.
I heard Him whisper, “Empty your pockets.”
Like watching a movie, I reached into my pants pockets, turning them inside out and spilling the hidden contents – long ago but still raw hurt feelings, unresolved painful matters about family members, and left over issues stamped “someday I will work on these.”
God wanted me to surrender everything. Foolishly I thought I had with my little imaginary trick.
God invited me to dig deeper and give up my hidden unspoken brokenness into His hands for healing. I thought the first step was hard; this move is downright terrifying.
But I trust God. He promises to be with me, continually molding me into the child He created me to be.
With God’s grace and help:
I will let go.
I will reach deep.
I will empty my pockets.
What prayer practice do you use to draw you closer to God? | <urn:uuid:82705af2-39b6-45ef-a403-73bc3b8dc89e> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://healthyspirituality.org/deep-pockets/ | 2022-01-24T17:21:02Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320304572.73/warc/CC-MAIN-20220124155118-20220124185118-00198.warc.gz | en | 0.953421 | 405 |

Inlays and onlays are one of dentistry’s best kept secrets. Its ambiguous place on the spectrum of dental techniques can also leave an observer guessing: It’s neither a traditional dental filling nor a crown. Rather, it’s an affordable option that straddles a middle ground, ideal for treating serious decay that has not yet reached the stage where a crown would be necessary.
Each of these small restorations covers areas of decay, shielding the drilled and disinfected cavity from future infection, while adding stability to the tooth. The terms are location-specific, with inlay referring to a restoration that is placed inside a tooth’s cusp, and the larger onlay restoration placed on top of one or more teeth.
The resilient inlays and onlays are made of strong composite material that blends in with your natural enamel. The smooth, even surfaces allow normal function, such as chewing, and feel perfectly at home in your mouth. An added benefit is that less of your tooth structure needs to be removed when treating a cavity with an inlay or onlay.
Because these restorations must be designed for each patient, the process involves two visits to the dental office. A special laboratory creates your customized inlay or onlay using impressions taken by Dr. Añonuevo. In the interim between the initial treatment of your cavity and the application of an inlay or onlay, the tooth will be secured with a temporary protective cover. When your restoration arrives, Dr. Añonuevo will bond it to the tooth, check for comfort and its impact on your bite and polish the surface for optimal fit and appearance.
Some patients opt for inlays and onlays to replace older metal fillings with heavy concentrations of mercury. This adds only a single step to the process: the removal of the filling and cleaning of the resulting void.
Once in place, your new restoration fades into the background in every respect — blending with the color of your enamel, matching the texture of tooth surfaces, and feeling perfectly natural in your mouth. You may at first experience some heightened tooth sensitivity, but this will be temporary. Inlays and onlays require no special treatment. Brush and floss as you normally would, avoid poor lifestyle choices such as grinding your teeth or eating hard foods and remember to visit our office for regular exams.
If you would like to discuss your specific dental needs with a respected, trustworthy dentist in Charlotte, we invite you to book a consultation with Dr. Añonuevo. Please call or email Inspire Dentistry of the Carolinas today to make your appointment. | <urn:uuid:598400b5-10a5-4332-9fca-f8d64a6e9e27> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://inspiredentistryofthecarolinas.com/inlays-onlays/ | 2022-01-24T16:29:18Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320304572.73/warc/CC-MAIN-20220124155118-20220124185118-00198.warc.gz | en | 0.918823 | 545 |
UNICEF office of Research (2016). ‘Fairness for Children: A league table of inequality in child well-being in rich countries’, Innocenti Report Card 13, UNICEF Office of Research – Innocenti, Florence.
The term ‘digital divide’ is used in contemporary media sound-bites to describe any form of inequality in the online community, however; in scholarly circles ‘digital divide’ is a complex phenomenon that is concerned with the impact of information inequality due to lack of access to information and communication technology with three distinct aspects: global divide, social divide and democratic divide (Norris, 2001). The gap between the information-rich and the information-poor is generally regarded as the main defining measure of digital divide, where increasing ease of access to New Media is regarded as a partial solution to democratization and development challenges around the globe (Moyo, 2009).
However, Moyo (2009) also argues that defining digital divide in terms of access to information technology like computers or smartphones undermines the far reaching implications of the problem, and impedes the search for potential solutions in policy making. The NY Times article titled ‘An Online Education Breakthrough? A Master’s Degree for a Mere $7,000′, describes how reputable institutions of higher learning are increasingly adopting online teaching procedures (Carey, 2016). A quote from the article describes how online learning is helping a demographic who would not otherwise be able to pursue higher education, “The traditional on-campus students in the Georgia Tech master’s program tend be young and just out college, with an average age of 24. The average age of the online students was 35. A sizable number were 45, 50 and older. Ninety percent were currently employed.” (Carey, 2016).
As quoted by Moyo (2009, p.123), “While physical access to the computers and the Internet is certainly one of the key variables for defining the digital divide, there is a need to broaden the concept by looking at how other factors such as literacy, technological literacy, content, language, network and the costs that are associated with Internet access, help in the understanding of the digital divide.”
So even though online delivery of university degrees from reputable institutions is ‘low-cost’ and easily accessible, it does not make any substantial reductions in digital divide in terms of global education, because for most third world country citizens $7000 is a lot of money and more than enough to earn a master’s degree from an offline physical institution, with face-to-face offline interactions with classmates and teachers. And despite access to internet, many may not be able to benefit from this online learning opportunity because they may not speak English, or may not have technological literacy. However there are better examples of how e-learning technologies can reduce global inequalities in education, with free, easy and open source tutorials and learning interfaces provided by Khan Academy, which is available in 26 languages including Bahasa Melayu, Bengali, and Telugu. So even a low-income village girl from Malaysia, India or Bangladesh who could never afford decent English language education can learn various subjects in her own language as long as she has access to internet (Khan Academy Help Center, 2016).
Simple online access to university degrees is not enough to reduce global inequalities in education by a significant amount. Tuition fees, technological literacy, costs associated with access to high-speed internet, and language barriers also need to be kept in consideration if online university degrees are to have a substantial impact in reducing global inequalities in education.

The Dawn mission to asteroid Vesta: Computational Perspectives and Scientific Return
Wednesday, September 14, 2011
Building 3 Auditorium - 11:20 AM
(Coffee and cookies at 10:30 AM)
Vesta is the 2nd largest asteroid in the main belt between Mars and Jupiter. As an object of astronomical study for more than 200 years, the Dawn mission is transforming our understanding of Vesta as a precursor to a terrestrial planet sharing some broad characteristics with Earth and Mars even though Vesta is only 300 miles across.
Dawn's first scientific task, to search for orbiting moons of Vesta, was enabled by Goddard's computer scientists and astronomers. The computational task was not complex, but it involved many steps and posed interesting challenges. We found no satellites larger than 10 meters. Meanwhile, Vesta's man-made satellite, the Dawn spacecraft, is safely in polar orbit around Vesta and revealing the complex history of the asteroids' surface that has been covered by basaltic volcanism and pummeled by former satellites that were obviously in unstable Vestal orbits.
Lucy McFadden is a co-investigator of NASA's Dawn mission that has a spacecraft in orbit around asteroid 4 Vesta. She has studied asteroids and comets throughout her research career revealing the nature of early solar system events from which the planets formed and were disrupted. She has been at Goddard for 18 months serving as the Higher Education and University Programs Chief in the Office of Education. Prior to that she was a Research Professor at University of Maryland, College Park for 16 years. She received her PhD in Geology & Geophysics from University of Hawaii, and a MS in Earth and Planetary Sciences from MIT.

“I am a mom of three, a type-A personality, & work full time. Over several years, I slowly slipped into having very bad insomnia. I was incredibly skeptical that one hour a week for 12 weeks would help me. I am happy to say, I was very wrong. Kali empowered me & made me realize how capable I am of getting a good night sleep without completely changing everything about my life.”
“This is not just a sleep training program. There are so many unexpected & appreciated benefits–beyond better sleep–that I never thought possible from the outset. Watching everything unfold before my eyes & seeing the 360 approach of what I can unlock from inside myself was humbling & dramatic. Kali has a roadmap & a process that is tailored to your life & your needs. She is calming, patient, caring, inquisitive & easy to speak with. You’ll look forward to the sessions.”
“When I started coaching with Kali I was super anxious, high strung, had poor sleep habits, & self care was last on the list. Kali helped me tackle my anxiety through changing my negative self talk, & helped me redirect unhealthy behavior patterns so that I could achieve restful sleep. Each session was so personalized & Kali listened so effectively that I got results tailored to my specific needs. She worked with me on recognizing my inner strengths & building confidence in my own abilities. I am so much happier & have better sleep habits as a result. Putting my self care needs first has helped me become a better person in all areas of my life.”
“I appreciated the well-rounded, holistic nature of the coaching. Kali recognizes the multi-faceted nature of sleeping issues, & provides a toolkit of practices, techniques, & concepts that I can draw from & continue to develop further. I’m experiencing fewer middle-of-the-night wake-ups & greater facility in getting back to sleep. I’m reasserting control (or lack of, where needed) over certain areas of my life, e.g. stress & sleep; this is a positive & fundamental change.”
“I wasn’t sure it would be worth the spend, but it only took a session to realize how effective sleep wellness coaching would be. Kali helped me solve my sleeping problem by addressing the real issues in my life that caused chatter & anxiety. She helped me make positive changes in my sleep patterns & habits. Now, I can absolutely say that I’m a great sleeper! I no longer obsess about it–which is as close to a miracle as you can get!!
“One day out of complete frustration & desperation from another horrendous insomnia cycle, I found Kali through a Google search. I had tried numerous natural alternatives, over the course of 30 years, only to be disappointed. Working with Kali was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. I learned how to repurpose my strengths to make a difference not only with my sleep, but in other aspects of my life. Kali listened to me & helped me prioritize my health & well-being without compromising my values–such as being there for others.”
“Kali makes wise & practical suggestions as well as helps you connect to your own wisdom. I greatly appreciated her guidance as well as felt empowered & grounded in my own ability to change. She is a uniquely wonderful combination of down-to-earth (working realistically with your current circumstances), intuitively insightful, & invites you to get curious about extending your limits so you can make lasting, fulfilling, & healthy changes that you deeply want.”
Kali is supportive and very practical. I can’t recommend her enough if you need a little support in how to take better care of yourself.
Kali was able to give me additional perspectives & different interpretations of situations. Her approach was as a partner in my journey.
I can’t speak highly enough about how much Kali’s approach has made a very positive difference in my life.

Those solo hybrid drivers whizzing by the rest of on the southbound 405 in the carpool lanes may not be laughing much longer. As it turns out, the DMV's hybrid sticker program is wildly popular (are we really that surprised?) and may soon await its fate. Evidently, the DMV is issuing those yellow stickers faster than anything has ever happened at the DMV. Ever. The program may soon be re-evaluated and will be dumped if too many non-carpoolers turn the diamond lanes into white knuckle lanes. Maybe it's back to those trusty 8 mpg SUVs for everyone.
