San Francisco — More than 60 probation and parole chiefs from across the nation, along with several major national associations representing the probation and parole field, today announced the launch of EXiT: Executives Transforming Probation & Parole, to significantly reduce the number of men and women under community supervision, make it less punitive, and more equitable, restorative, and hopeful.
EXiT will bring to bear the experience of system executives who have led changes within their own agencies to address challenges facing probation and parole and believe the field should go further toward transformation.
EXiT is organizing their colleagues running community supervision across the nation around their Statement on the Future of Probation and Parole in the United States. It lays out the challenges in probation and parole today, principles for the field, and a call to action. The full statement is below.
Former New York City Probation Commissioner and EXiT Co-Chair Vincent Schiraldi said, “Community supervision is the largest and most ignored part of America’s criminal justice system. While there are important examples of improvements throughout the country, in too many ways, the system is still broken. That’s why, today, more than 60 probation and parole chiefs are taking the highly unusual step of speaking up and urging that the systems we run get smaller, less punitive, and more reintegrative.”
Speaking at a press conference at the American Probation and Parole Association annual conference in San Francisco, Schiraldi, Co-Director of the Columbia University Justice Lab and a senior research scientist at the Columbia School of Social Work, said, “Mass supervision as it is currently constituted must end. It is time to return to our rehabilitative roots, rightsize probation and parole, and restore hope and help.”
Maricopa County, Arizona Chief Probation Officer and EXiT Co-Chair Barbara Broderick said, “Probation and parole chiefs have little control over who comes in their front door — those decisions are made by other systems, at sentencing or release. But we do control many aspects of supervision, and that gives us the power to lead the transformation we want to see.”
Broderick continued, “We can share what’s worked, and what we’ve learned through experience — that people rebuilding their lives after contact with the justice system need hope and support to be successful, not just have someone looking over their shoulder for failure.”
EXiT’s statement of principles makes clear that by returning justice and fairness to probation & parole, communities across the nation will be safer, fairer, and more effective.
As numerous states around the country have already shown, we can significantly reduce the footprint of community supervision while increasing public safety and well-being. Probation and parole should practice procedural justice — treating people under supervision and their families with fairness and dignity. We must support the transformation of our field to focus on supporting people’s success on probation and parole.
EXiT’s plan is to support executives, policymakers, and advocates to substantially reduce the number of people under supervision and focus resources on those who need the most help. They will do so through rapid response, targeted technical assistance; testimony at hearings and public convenings; public communications and messaging; and thought leadership by developing and disseminating cutting-edge policies and practices.
EXiT’s launch comes at a moment ripe for the transformation they seek.
Though rates of supervision (as with other forms of correctional control) have decreased since their peak in 2007, there are still more than twice as many men and women on probation or parole as there are incarcerated in the U.S.: 4.5 million people as of the most recent available national numbers. That’s more people than the population in 25 states. This works out to 1 in 55 adult Americans who are on probation or parole, and this is not evenly distributed - 1 in 23 Black men and women are under supervision. In many places, probation and parole supervision has become a driver of incarceration rather than an alternative to it - nationally, 1 in 4 people who entered prisons in 2017 were incarcerated for technical, non-criminal supervision violations, costing $2.8 billion.
Data like this led EXiT members to state:
Probation and parole have grown far too large because people are being supervised who should not be and are being kept on supervision for far too long. For those under community supervision, it is often too punitive and focused on suppression, surveillance, and control, rather than well-being and growth.
The Statement on the Future of Probation and Parole presents several calls to action to address mass supervision, which can be summarized as return, reduce, and restore:
RETURN probation & parole to their original purpose: to help and support men and women to stay in or return to the community
- Tailor conditions of probation and parole to the needs and goals of each individual
- Conditions should never be imposed unless they specifically relate to the person’s offense behavior
- Establish reasonable probation and parole terms that are not unnecessarily long (generally no longer than 18 months), and are measured by a balance of an individual’s goals and public safety concerns
- Eliminate supervision fees. If fees are levied, they should always be within the person’s ability to pay and the person should have the option of performing reasonable community service as an alternative.
REDUCE the population of men and women on probation and parole to just those who need supervision
- Divert from probation and parole, individuals for whom the purposes of sentencing can be achieved without supervision, prioritizing services, and supports above surveillance and supervision
- Eliminate incarceration for technical violations and reduce reincarceration for low-level new offenses by those under supervision
- Eradicate racial disparities in supervision, revocations, and sentencing recommendations.
RESTORE HOPE for people under supervision, the people who work in the system, and the communities where they all live
- Allow people on probation to earn time off supervision through good behavior and by achieving certain milestones, like high school graduation, program completion, enrollment in college, and job retention
- Capture the savings from reducing the number of people under supervision and reducing incarceration for violations and reinvest them into smaller caseloads, evidence-based practices and enhanced community-led services and supports
- Expand and improve community services, supports, and opportunities provided to people on probation and parole
- Seek, hear, and honor the voices of community members, families, and justice-involved individuals as equal partners in system reform
- Support probation and parole staff as a cornerstone of systemic change. Staff should be heard, supported and appropriately trained to embrace the principles of procedural justice
- Address the statutory restrictions that inhibit reentry into the community, such as restoration of voting rights, access to college funding, driving privileges, and safe housing.
EXiT is staffed by the Columbia University Justice Lab. Its work is made possible through generous support from Arnold Ventures, Galaxy Gives, and the Tikkun Olam Foundation, Inc.
The press conference was livestreamed by the Chronicle of Social Change. The video also is available for viewing at chronicleofsocialchange.org.
Leaders from several corners of the criminal justice policy space have weighed in on the announcement:
Van Jones, founder and CEO of the REFORM Alliance, said, “To have probation and parole chiefs from across the United States step up today and say that their systems need major reforms is a giant leap forward in the campaign to reduce the vast numbers of men and women trapped in punitive and unnecessary supervision.”
“More than that, with their acknowledgment that their systems need a major overhaul, the probation & parole chiefs at EXiT also come to us with a simple, manageable, and eloquent plan,” said Jones.
San Francisco District Attorney George Gascón said, “We need to fundamentally transform our corrections orientation from punishing failure to promoting success. That requires we afford individuals in the community justice system the respect and support they need to live, work, and love.”
#Cut50 National Director Michael Mendoza, who was discharged from lifetime parole, says, “I’m still not free. There are still opportunities that I don’t have access to because of my past convictions and barriers to reintegration.”
Mendoza continued, “I wasn’t allowed back to Orange County to be with my family. When my grandmother was in the hospital I was only able to see her once before she died. My mom wanted my help during this family crisis but I could only communicate with her by telephone. It’s an emotional struggle.”
Crime Survivors for Safety and Justice California Director Tinisch Hollis said, “Survivors of crime know that fair and effective parole and probation practices work better to stop the cycle of crime. This is good for public safety. Today we are proud to stand with parole and probation chiefs from across the country in calling for new solutions for stopping the revolving door. We want safety first. The old approaches don’t deliver.”
In addition to Broderick and Schiraldi, the EXiT Steering Committee includes:
- Ana Bermúdez, commissioner, New York City Department of Probation
- Adolfo Gonzales, chief probation officer, San Diego County, California
- Norris Henderson, executive director, Voice of the Experienced (VOTE)
- Marcus Hodges, former president, National Association of Probation Executives (NAPE), & associate director, Washington DC Court Services and Offender Supervision Agency (CSOSA)
- Michael Jacobson, executive director, CUNY Institute for State and Local Governance, & former commissioner, New York City Corrections and Department of Probation
- Brian Lovins, president-elect, APPA, principal, Justice System Partners, & former assistant director, Harris County Community Supervision and Corrections Department
- Terri McDonald, chief probation officer, Los Angeles, California
- David Muhammad, executive director, National Institute for Criminal Justice Reform (NICJR), and former chief probation officer, Alameda County, California
- Michael Nail, commissioner, Georgia Department of Community Supervision
- Wendy Still, chief probation officer, Alameda County, California

AET Flexible Space: Underfloor air conditioning
The AET Flexible Space System is an Under Floor Air Conditioning (UFAC) system which makes use of a raised access floor to provide the air ventilation duct, eliminating the need for traditional ceiling based services. The system can be used to create high quality indoor environments and comfortable workspace for commercial applications.
The whole plenum under the raised access floors essentially becomes the duct, with each floor then divided into a number of zones. Each zone is then supplied with chilled or warm air by a conditioned air module (CAM). The beauty of this duct-free approach to air conditioning commercial buildings is that is has the potential to cut the cost of total construction by up to 7% and reduce building energy consumption by up to 30%.
Other key benefits of this unique system include the elimination of horizontal pipework and ventilation ductwor, comfortable, healthy environments without draughts and enhanced building rentability. | <urn:uuid:e5f4f114-7cb4-4ea7-8e34-f5c67c71cc8d> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://www.barbourproductsearch.info/aet-flexible-space-underfloor-air-conditioning-prod009418.html | 2022-01-17T19:34:49Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320300616.11/warc/CC-MAIN-20220117182124-20220117212124-00078.warc.gz | en | 0.927913 | 193 |

Oscar winner brings history of gay liberation to screen
Two days after the U.S. presidential election in November, Dustin Lance Black offered this social-media salve to those disappointed and discouraged by the political outcome: “Looking to art and history for the hope, inspiration and strength for the battles ahead. #OneStruggleOneFight #Unite.”
Accompanied by a photo taken at New York’s Museum of Modern Art, his message was part status update and part rallying cry to his 75,000 Twitter followers. It was undeniably what Black — whose writing and producing credits include “Pedro,” “J. Edgar” and “8” the play — has become known for since winning a screenwriting Oscar in 2009 for “Milk.” Compelling, provocative and entertaining art as activism.
His tweet also could’ve been seen as a precursor to “When We Rise,” the new eight-hour seven-episode miniseries Black created for television. It chronicles the LGBT rights movement through the lives and work of real-life gay activists Cleve Jones, Ken Jones and Roma Guy. Directed by Gus Van Sant and featuring a cast that includes Guy Pearce, Mary-Louise Parker and Rosie O’Donnell, it will air on ABC in February. The first 84 minutes of the series will be screened Thursday, Jan. 12, as the Palm Springs International Film Festival’s Gay!La event.
Black, who plans to attend the screening, recently revealed to The Desert Sun his process for identifying the movement’s young heroes, their powerful stories from the early 1970s to today and meeting his mentor in Palm Springs:
When did you have the idea to bring “When We Rise” to viewers and what prompted it?
I had never read the book (“When We Rise” by Cleve Jones). I wanted to do something that was more comprehensive than “Milk” (the film) because “Milk” was the gay male experience. And I had been wanting to do certainly a more comprehensive portrayal of the social justice movement, particularly the LGBT movement and how it’s related to other movements — how the movements need each other. I was getting more frustrated with how my own movement was becoming more myopic. I thought that’s going to be the end of us.
I had this idea for “When We Rise,” and I heard a rumor four years ago that ABC was sniffing around some LGBT history properties. I called my agent and said, “Get me in there.” My first meeting, I was blown away that ABC was looking to do a comprehensive miniseries on LGBT history in some way. I asked them to give me some time. It ended up being a year and researching young LGBT people who came from other movements. That narrowed it down.
Eventually, I found a handful of folks who had joined the movement in their youth who came from the peace movement, black civil rights movement, women’s movement. It took about a year to find a group of people who I felt I could portray. That was the beginning.
I took those stories a year later and said, “This is what I want to do.” I went to ABC and they still had the guts to go for it. Then I thought, “How do we craft this in a way that’s appealing to an ABC audience?” To me, that’s more personal. How do I craft this in a way that’s appealing to my family because I grew up in the South? … By including in the creative process a diverse group of artists, my hope is the finished product will be more authentic.
I hear a lot about coalition-building in the LGBT community, but I don’t see it in action. Do you see that changing?
I see changes in our history. It didn’t start out as a white gay male movement. People asked me about “Milk,” why it was only gay white men. Because frankly a lot of the Castro bar owners were racist.
Now we call it an LGBT movement. I’m not sure we fully understand how much we need each other. I think we’re starting to get it. We’re starting to see how critical it is. I’m seeing it. What I would like to see more of, and why I wanted to particularly depict Ken Jones, is he came from a family that helped the black civil rights fight. He understands firsthand the inter-connectedness of the civil rights fight.
Certainly there are gay people who are African American, and we ought to have each other’s backs. I don’t see enough of that. I constantly challenge my friends in positions of leadership in the LGBT movement: “Why are you not showing up to a Black Lives Matter rally?”
As the show goes on it deals with health-care, immigration, racial inequality.
Is there a common characteristic or experience these activists share that you discovered while researching and writing their stories?
The main characters in this series are incredibly unique in that they not only participated in the social justice movement, it’s that they’ve done so for decades. It’s exhausting work. The rewards are not great, and you’re often eaten by your own. The unifying characteristic is resilience and a certitude that human beings need to be treated equally despite their differences. You can trace back to their stories a moment of realization about otherness. Somewhere in the combination of their own otherness and the pain they felt, the empathy they had watching someone be treated differently became a call to action.
I’m wondering if any of the people featured in the series were apprehensive about how they would be portrayed, and how you addressed that.
For me, I try never to lean on other artists’ source material. I do not lean on other people’s documentaries or books. I like to go to the source. I like to speak to the real people whenever they’re still alive. I did that with “J. Edgar” (the film). There were people still around who knew him. I also did that with “Milk.”
I was very candid with them up front that I’m going to ask very personal questions, I’m not going to pull punches. But in the end, my aim is to be truthful. I feel that the truth of their families can create understanding, and they know that. There’s a lot of trust.
I do share drafts with them, and they do come back to me with notes. These are notes about making things more authentic. I do not want this show to be dismissible. We are trying to recreate potent moments in this movement.
It pays off. People who might like trivia, when you see Harvey Milk’s bullhorn come out in a rally, that’s actually his bullhorn. The cross that Cleve holds throughout the series is actually the cross that his lover left him. By involving them every step of the way, I think they understand why and, in the end they’ve all seen it now, it was met with tears of joy and sorrow. I’m glad to have them as allies.
I was somewhat surprised there’s not an actor portraying Harvey Milk. How much did the fact that you’d written “Milk” and Sean Penn won an Oscar as Harvey Milk influence that decision?
It might have influenced it slightly. For the most part, by design, I wanted this to be told from the perspective of the boots-on-the-ground folks that are fighting on a daily basis at a grass-roots level.
From past interviews I’ve read, I sense a kinship between you and Cleve Jones. Tell me about the first time you met him and what that was like for you.
The “Milk” story was really an important story to me because I heard it for the first time as a teenager in the theater. In college, I would go around talking about Harvey Milk and about my frustration that the movie had been in development at Warner Brothers for so long, but never seemed to get a greenlight.
I had a friend who was working on a rock opera about the AIDS Quilt (conceived by Cleve Jones) who said to me, “You know who was Harvey’s aide at the time? Cleve Jones.”
I said, “Yeah, whatever happened to him?”
“He’s living in Palm Springs.”
My friend and I went to Palm Springs. I went out there mainly on false pretenses. When interviewed, Cleve took out a box and started taking out pictures. Every time my friend would leave the room, I would change the subject: “Tell me about Milk.” He knew where the story was. At that point, very few people knew who he was outside of San Francisco. (Cleve) was the person who drove me to San Francisco and introduced me to the real people who knew Harvey.
I see him as a dear friend, as an inspiration and most importantly as a giant pain in my ass. He will not let up if he sees I’m heading in the (wrong) direction. That’s a great combination to have in a mentor. My mom when she met him said, “Boy, he’s like the Forrest Gump of gays.” He’s been at every critical moment of the movement since ’69 or ’70.
Given our political climate in the U.S., is there a takeaway that you hope LGBT viewers get from “When We Rise”?
Yes, two things: No. 1, this is not the first time we have experienced backlash. In the past, as you’ll see in the series, we have fought back and we have stood our ground, and things have changed.
The second thing is: Joining hands with other minorities. It’s critical to understand that the most important word in this series is “We.”
I read that you spend a great deal of time in London. What’s been the common reaction you’ve encountered there to the U.S. presidential election?
Right now I feel we are, worldwide, in a regressive time. The pendulum is swinging backwards. It was only a matter of months earlier that Brexit passed here in the United Kingdom. That was baffling to so many equality-minded people. It was only a matter of months that the United States showed Great Britain up and elected Trump. We are in a time worldwide where there’s more talk of building walls and closing borders than extending hands and building understand. I hope people will look to our history, this series being one of those tools, to understand how you push back in regressive times here. Many times in conversations with folks here, we feel like we’re in the same boat.
I do feel that one of the ways to do that isn’t to go around preaching about politics or science. The way to do that is to tell personal stories so we can create better understanding between us and folks who would take our rights away. I guarantee you when they get to know us, they realize there isn’t anything to be afraid of.
Is there anything I haven’t asked that you would like our readers to know?
So far the response (to “When We Rise”) has been phenomenal, standing ovations in Rome and all that. I do hope when LGBT people see it, every now and then they’ll see something familiar. I hope they’ll have patience with me and understand I’m trying my best to share our stories. I ask for just a little bit of patience. I also hope for my brothers and sisters in the movement to share their stories with their families. That’s why I did it. That’s why I’ve been four years working on this.

End-of-Summer Events and Meetings
What a great summer of 2008, featuring: an amazing Elevation Talent Show, an absolutely EPIC summer camp, a pump’n Hills Alive, a spirit-filled trip to IHOP, and many, many, many, MANY other incredible God-moments throughout! Well, it’s not over yet, but it’s getting close. School starts soon and we’ll be back into the grind of school-days, homework, and all sorts of extracurricular activities. To help you, as a student, slide into the fall, Elevate Student Ministries is planning a “Back-to-School in the Backyard” event hosted by the Lombard family featuring a fire pit, a hot dog dinner, acoustic worship with Ken Verheecke, some backyard challenges, and smores. All you have to bring is a lawn chair.
That’s not all, we’ve got a very important meeting for parents of Elevate students coming up soon, too. (We don’t want them to feel left out.) The meeting is intended for families of incoming 6th graders, for new families who joined our ministry during the year and want an overview of the whole ministry, and any other interested parent/guardians. This is your opportunity to hear our vision and embrace the movement of Destiny’s student ministry as a whole.
Here’s the outline of our agenda:
- Look back on last year’s ministry (reflections, ideas, events, highlights, etc.)
- Cast the vision for next year’s ministry
- What that vision looks like in our ministry (a breakdown of our weekly meetings: who it’s for, where it’s at, what we’re studying, introducing leaders, etc)
- An overview of a couple big annual events we do each year
- Communication (how the youth ministry communicates with students and parents, where to find info and stay up-to-date, overview of our student website, parent newsletter, etc.)
- Q & A
And, last but not least, we’re going to be hosting our very first meeting concerning next summer’s missions adventure trip to Creel, Mexico. We’ve branded the trip “I Heart: Mexico”. The idea behind the slogan is that Creel, Mexico is where our heart “is” and “will be” as we sow into and prepare for this trip next year. Our initial gathering for all who are interested is going to be Wednesday, September 10th @ 6:00 PM. You’ll find out about the outreach details, have the opportunity to pick up some informational brochures, receive some fundraising ideas and encouragement, and more. Mark the date and time on your calendar and we’ll see you there!
Wow! That’s a lot happening in just a few short weeks. Mark your calendars! | <urn:uuid:771a3ee1-d85c-4fe2-ba77-c073527b22f9> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://www.elevatingageneration.org/end-of-summer-event-and-2-important-meetings/ | 2022-01-17T19:37:02Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320300616.11/warc/CC-MAIN-20220117182124-20220117212124-00078.warc.gz | en | 0.910766 | 638 |
There's Something About Mary Movie Synopsis & Plot
13 years ago, Ted was in his senior year of high school. None of his friends believed him when he said that Mary Jensen, the hottest girl in school, had asked him to the prom. It was going to be the greatest day of his life... Until he caught his family jewels in his zipper.
Present day, Ted has changed his look but not much else. He has no wife, no kids, no upstanding career. But he does still have a crush on Mary.
Deciding it wouldn't hurt, he hires a private investigator, Pat Healy, to go down to Miami and find out where Mary lives and how's she doing. Healy does but in the process falls in love with Mary himself. So, he tells Ted a few, small lies to keep him from meeting her, but, unfortunately for Healy, Ted still insists on going down there.
By the time Ted does get to Florida, after being arrested for sexual activities and murdering a man, Healy has already pushed himself into Mary's life (though he has lied to do so) and is well on his way to winning her heart. And then there's Warren, the supposed crippled architect. And Dom, the shoe-loving not. And Tucker. And of course Ted. Because, there's just something about Mary.

Nike Dunk Low Scrap Black Gum Release News
Even though we are still a long way from achieving zero waste, we have seen that sporting goods manufacturers like Nike and other well-known labels are doing everything they can to further reduce their carbon footprint. To do this, they either use surplus material in new sneakers or optimise individual production steps.
Another “green” sneaker is the offbeat Nike Dunk Low Scrap, which should be loved less for its looks and more for the low energy consumption for manufacturing. Take a look at the official images.
Nike Dunk Low Scrap Black Gum Release Info
Making a sneaker out of “trash” may sound strange, but Nike’s final product proves us wrong. The latest silhouette from Beaverton is made of discarded materials. Random appliqués are packed onto the multi-layered upper for a DIY design, a trend that has grown a lot in recent months.
Several colourways already exist, but this black pair is the latest iteration. Then in between, green and pink accents highlight the eyestays and tongues, while the brown outsoles come with a classic look.
Where You Can Buy the Nike Dunk Low Scrap Black Gum
These and many more releases will take place at Nike and selected retailers in the coming days. You don’t want to miss shoes like these and other upcoming sneakers? Then be sure to check out the free Grailify app and stay up to date.

Investing in S & T will Spur Kenya's Development Says President KibakiApril 13, 2012
Kenya's President Mwai Kibaki has affirmed the Kenyan government's commitment to utilize technological innovations for the development of agriculture which contributes to about 30 percent of the nation's gross development product.
"Here in Kenya, we are fully committed to utilizing science, technology and innovation for the benefit of our people," said the President as he officially opened the First African Science, Technology and Innovation Forum in Nairobi on April 3, 2012. The President also noted that the country had taken deliberate steps to promote science in Kenya by formulating a new National Science, Technology and Innovation Policy. The new policy explicitly declares the country's endeavor to promote agricultural research and specifically biotechnology to address biotic and abiotic stresses that lead to losses due to pests and diseases.
The First African Science, Technology and Innovation Forum was attended by 57 African government ministers with the responsibility for science, technology and innovation, finance, planning and education. The forum showcased technological innovations in agriculture, technology and mobile telecommunications from various developers in the continent. Notable agricultural innovations showcased included the high yielding drought tolerant chicken pea variety developed at Egerton University and the high yielding maize variety developed at Maseno University.

Document Security Needs Assessment Tool
Assessing needs for document security can be a daunting challenge for any IT leader. Use this tool to help gain an understanding of your organization’s needs for a document security tool(s). This assessment asks you a series of questions about your:
- Organization and its documents
- Workflow procedures
- Internal vs. external business process orientation.
The foundation for this, or any, solid document security needs assessment is the concept of trust — how much confidence organizations must have in the authenticity of their documents and supporting workflows.

Kapil Sharma and his wife Gini Chatrath have been blessed with a beautiful baby girl yesterday and one of India’s most loved comedian shared the news with all his fans and well-wishers with a tweet that read, “Blessed to have a baby girl. Need ur blessings. Love u all. Jai mata di.”
Blessed to have a baby girl ? need ur blessings ? love u all ❤️ jai mata di ?
— Kapil Sharma (@KapilSharmaK9) December 9, 2019
But the newest daddy is too scared to hold his daughter, but the reason is nowhere close to what you are thinking. Speaking to Bombay Times, Kapil has revealed, “I am ecstatic. I haven’t slept in two days. I am suffering from a bad cold and cough. So, I am not even sure whether I can hold my baby. The feeling is beyond words. Ginni and I always wanted a girl and we are happy that we’ve been blessed with one. We can’t thank God enough for our beautiful angel.”
Meanwhile, several B-town personalities showered love and blessings to the couple. While singer-rapper Guru Randhawa called himself chacha and wrote, “Congrats my paji. I’m officially a Chacha now,” comedian Bhuvan Bum tweeted, “Bhaiya! Congratulations!”
For those living under the rock, Kapil and Ginni tied the knot in a grand Hindu-style ceremony on December 12, 2018, in Jalandhar. The wedding was followed by an Anand Karaj ceremony the next day.
What’s more is that after faced a lull in his professional life, Kapil is now back with a bang with his show, The Kapil Sharma Show holding top spots at the TRP charts. Kapil was also recently honoured with the title of ‘Comic Genius’ at the recently held ITA awards. | <urn:uuid:219ac38e-70bf-4014-8abf-e3c53fc3dc18> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://www.koimoi.com/television/kapil-sharma-is-not-sure-if-he-can-hold-his-own-baby-or-not/ | 2022-01-17T19:48:46Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320300616.11/warc/CC-MAIN-20220117182124-20220117212124-00078.warc.gz | en | 0.96026 | 435 |
US Federal Communications Commission (FCC) chief Ajit Pai threw his support behind a proposed merger between T-Mobile US and Sprint, citing commitments the pair made to expand rural coverage and address competitive concerns as decisive factors.
“I believe that this transaction is in the public interest and intend to recommend to my colleagues that the FCC approve it. This is a unique opportunity to speed up the deployment of 5G throughout the United States and bring much faster mobile broadband to rural Americans. We should seize this opportunity,” he said in a statement.
Pai added he intends to present the other members of the FCC with a draft order to that effect in the coming weeks.
The announcement came as T-Mobile US and Sprint revealed plans to sell the latter’s Boost Mobile prepaid unit after critics of the deal raised concerns about how it would impact competition in the segment.
As part of the divestiture plan, the combined operator would offer Boost Mobile’s buyer a discounted wholesale arrangement with a minimum six-year term, subject to approval by the FCC.
On a call with journalists, senior FCC officials said the plan was designed to address concerns about the merger’s impact on competition in the low-cost wireless segment, and give Boost Mobile the ability and incentive to continue to compete against T-Mobile.
In a filing with the FCC, Sprint and T-Mobile reiterated a series of additional three- and six-year commitments including plans to build a nationwide 5G network; expand rural coverage; compete in the home broadband market; honour current MVNO agreements (including a Sprint deal with Altice); and maintain current mobile pricing for consumers for three years.
They also outlined a verification and enforcement process to ensure those promises are kept, agreeing to pay penalties of up to $2.4 billion per year for missed deadlines.
Pai said the latter will “create a powerful incentive for the companies to meet their commitments on time”.
If the merger goes ahead, the combined company’s forthcoming 5G network must cover 75 per cent of the US population and 55 per cent of the country’s rural population with mid-band spectrum within three years of the deal closing.
Those figures must reach 88 per cent and 67 per cent, respectively, within six years.
Evaluation of the operator’s performance against those and other coverage benchmarks will be conducted through drive testing, which will be funded by T-Mobile and overseen by an independent third party.
The agreed conditions do not require any spectrum divestitures, nor do they explicitly address the issue of job creation or loss. However, senior FCC officials said they expect the 5G commitments to increase network construction and tower jobs.
While FCC backing would be a major step towards closing the merger, approval from the Department of Justice is also needed.Subscribe to our daily newsletter Back | <urn:uuid:457be942-7eac-49e0-956d-00e34765d152> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://www.mobileworldlive.com/featured-content/home-banner/fcc-chief-backs-t-mobile-sprint-merger | 2022-01-17T18:51:25Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320300616.11/warc/CC-MAIN-20220117182124-20220117212124-00078.warc.gz | en | 0.955695 | 591 |
The five sequences that compose autoreverse show decomposing and recomposing machines made from electric appliances. RS 570, X1, 97 C, FHW 64 D, and AM A202 unfold and reassemble, accompanied by what Kirps calls “electro-techno-mechanic” sounds, to reveal their surreal and redundant functions. “For autoreverse, I initially searched for elements to recycle,” the designer has explained. “I collected an enormous stockpile of objects, which I then photographed from every angle.” Among the accumulations are pieces of household and office equipment, much of it now obsolete.

Awesome lessons today, and practice this past week, guys. All of you!!! Keep it up!
The above said, I know you could be progressing much faster than you (not that I am not complaining), if you found time to practice that extra bit more every chance that you get. You’re talented, boy, so honour that talent!
RELAX those fingers and hands, and, at the same time, make your fingers super-active, lifting up HIGH off the keys after playing notes, HIGH wrists and extended elbows, dear. And, breathe (release the tension). In. All. That. You. Do. :)
Awesome practice this past week, or something’s really starting to click with you. Lift those fingers HIGH off of keys after playing notes, wrists HIGH, elbows EXTENDED, and practice sections of your pieces that are causing you difficulty in SLOW MOTION. | <urn:uuid:db1fd82f-f330-49d9-a380-ec2a352a27cc> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://www.music-lessons.ca/homework-week-april-12-18/ | 2022-01-17T19:50:52Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320300616.11/warc/CC-MAIN-20220117182124-20220117212124-00078.warc.gz | en | 0.922781 | 194 |
(2) what we know about bullying and how to prevent and
address it is not applied to the problem of hazing.
There are two items to access below. One of the items
('key points') is a draft. It needs further review, but
it was reviewed and then distributed at a training
conducted by NJ Interscholastic Athletics Association
this week, and considered helpful by them (an
authoritative opinion), so it is being made available
here now. The other item ('myths') is an excellent
handout accessed at www.stophazing.org,
a major U.S. website for hazing information.
3/09: Settlement in hazing death (4 years ago) in Colorado
Hazing settlement Colorado 3-09
3/09: In case anyone thought the problem had gone away ...
hazing NH 3-7-09
5/08: Perhaps reflecting growing awareness of hazing as a problem and less societal tolerance for it, there was a notice in the NY Times (5/8/08) about hazing at Tulane University in which pledges were scaled with hot water and pepper, requiring hospital treatment. The students who did the hazing were criminally charged and the fraternity suspended. The question which still needs to be addressed was whether the hazing there represents a pattern on the part of that fraternity and others, and - therefore - the extent to which college administrators could reasonably have been aware that hazing was (still) going on (if it was) and taken some proactive steps, rather than only reacting incident-by-incident. But the article was too short to say, and - as the article noted - Tulane (which issued a news release about the incident, and took action, to its credit) is investigating. Overall, such articles may portend a (continuing) positive change. Here's an article which describes more.
3/08: Excellent article (from the medical literature, by an emergency medicine specialist) on hazing. It was published in 2002, but I'll post it now since I just came across it in my files- it's an excellent review of the issue, and the professional (dispassionate) language required makes the points, examples and analysis an even more powerful statement. Note author's referencing of Hank Nuwer (several times) - it's not often a journalist is cited so prominently in a med lit article - that the author does so is a testimony to how sparse the med lit is on hazing (true in 2002, and still true) and on how important to this issue Hank Nuwer (the leading anti-hazing advocate) has been.

Like most parents who are photography aficionados, there comes the point where we hope to expose our kids to photography, and this is the same for me, with the 2 young ladies being exposed to cameras since they were 1 year old onwards.
Teaching photography to children | Lynn X Instax mini Tsum Tsum post here.
A 3 and 5-year old’s adventures with cameras post here.
So today, I’ve one more camera to add to the list, which is the Paper Shoot camera by George Lin. Design-wise, this is a pretty exciting camera – quite literally all made out of stone paper for an environmentally friendly slant with pretty legit functions like SD card support, 4 filters which work with a 13 megapixels sensor on a 22mm f2 lens.
In fact, the Paper Shoot camera has a German design nominee 2019 winning nomination and has achieved the reddot award winner (2018), Taiwan excellence 2018, Golden Pin concept award.
In the kit I got, everything you need is provided, except the SD card and AAA batteries. The PaperShoot supports USB-charging, so using rechargeable batts is a good idea.
You receive it in a kit and assemble it yourself. You probably need a maximum of five minutes, with the screws holding the whole setup together. I chucked the provided strap though, it was flimsy.
The Paper Camera is lightweight and easy to use, so you can take it absolutely everywhere (note, its stone-paper so anywhere wet wouldn’t be a good idea)
There are many designs available actually, here’s the nostalgic cassette tape design.
Marketed as a higher-end (aka expensive in my opinion) camera for teens, I find the straightforward design suitable for handling. All one needs to do is to simply use the cut-out for framing and depress the shutter button to capture. (Button under the Letter A)
It’s pretty easy to handle, even for kids.
When you run out of battery, the camera will release a buzzing sound whenever the user tries to depress the shutter button. Easy to remind and frankly, the size and the handling of the Paper Shoot camera
Photo Samples. (here are some photo samples from Lynn and Kei).
The Paper Shoot is a pretty thin device that is very easy to carry around. In comparisons, I have seen larger power banks and wallets. It’s slim and powers up with just two AAA batteries, which will last you a whole day or two if you keep it assembled with the camera.
The SD card support and a USB port, ensure ease of use for uploading photos or simply, recharging on the go.
Paper Shoot camera is a no-fuss gadget that gets the job done. One thing to note is one will not likely obtain the clean photo image quality one has gotten used expect from the much more advanced cameras today, especially in low light situations. But to me, that’s actually the charm of it all. It mimics the feel of early digital cameras (think of the lomographic effect—slightly blurred and distorted on the edges but with a clear render on the center).
While there is the ease of operation with this paper camera, one does need to familiarize oneself with the lens since the viewfinder is pretty much a crude cut-out. But once you grasp how to point and shoot with it, you’ll be able to start snapping easily.

Conor Chaplin came off the bench to rescue a point for Pompey at promotion favourites Wigan.
It did not look a likely outcome when Ivan Toney fired the hosts ahead early in the contest and they then dominated the rest of the first half.
The Latics hit the woodwork on three occasions, but Chey Dunkley’s red card turned the tide in the Blues’ favour.
And Chaplin’s header ensured that the noisy travelling faithful had plenty to cheer on the long trip home, despite Gareth Evans also being dismissed late on.
Kenny Jackett made three changes from the side that drew with Walsall the previous week.
Dion Donohue was handed a debut wide on the left, with Jamal Lowe returning from suspension to lead the line and Kyle Bennett also given a recall.
Kal Naismith dropped to the bench, while there was no place in the squad for Milan Lalkovic or the injured Drew Talbot.
Wigan immediately showed why they are the favourites for League One promotion and it took just eight minutes for them to break the deadlock.
Nick Powell threaded a pass through to Gavin Massey and he slid the ball across the face of goal for Toney to tap home from close range.
That failed to temper the hosts’ attacking intent and the only surprise at half-time was that they failed to extend their advantage.
It was a combination of Luke McGee and the woodwork that came to Pompey’s rescue to limit the damage.
The keeper made a fine save with his feet to deny Toney a second when the striker looked to convert a dangerous Massey delivery.
Reece James then teed-up Powell, whose fierce strike cannoned back off the crossbar on 22 minutes.
The Blues had created little at the other end of the pitch, with an uncharacteristic heavy touch from Brett Pitman denying him a shooting opportunity.
Wigan, by contrast, were looking dangerous with every attack and Christian Burgess did well to block Samy Morsy’s effort after the midfielder had initially given him the slip.
Pompey did provide more of a threat towards the end of the half and when Evans’ met a Donohue free-kick, his downwards header had to be scrambled clear.
A couple of corners also caused the Latics problems, but although Christian Walton flapped at one, they both ultimately came to nothing.
Paul Cook would have enjoyed seeing his new side dominate his old one, although that failed to stop Wigan’s boss berating the fourth official for some perceived poor refereeing decisions.
And he had more reason to moan when Toney, under pressure from Evans, could only turn Massey’s cross against the post.
The hosts looked like they would grab a second before the break, with Lee Evans’ strike heading for the net until a diving McGee managed to palm it behind.
Half Time: Wigan 1 Pompey 0
It had been virtually one-way traffic before the break, but the Blues came close to levelling just 56 seconds after the restart.
Brandon Haunstrup sent the ball into the box from wide on the left, only for Lowe to turn it wide from close range.
Wigan were soon back on the attack, however, and McGee was at his best once more to keep out Michael Jacobs’ fiercely-struck attempt.
The keeper then failed to hold another effort from the same player, but was quickly able to smother the loose ball.
Jackett made a double switch on 53 minutes in an attempt to spark a reversal of fortunes, with Donohue and Danny Rose withdrawn for Naismith and Ben Close.
And a Wigan player was also departing soon after – although there was nobody coming on to replace Dunkley.
The centre-back lashed out at Pitman off the ball and referee Robert Jones had no choice but to brandish a red card.
But it was the Latics who almost scored again on 69 minutes, with the post coming to Pompey’s rescue once more when an effort from substitute Terell Thomas beat McGee’s grasp.
The Blues were trying to make their numerical advantage count, but were finding it difficult to test Walton.
There was an equaliser for the large travelling support to cheer on 76 minutes, however.
Haunstrup swung in a fine cross from wide on the left and CHAPLIN – who had only just been brought on – deftly nodded it home.
It almost got even better for the visitors soon after, but Walton just about got down quick enough to palm clear Adam May’s daisy-cutter.
There were still chances at the other end, though, and Will Grigg should have done better than divert his far-post header straight into McGee’s arms.
But the Blues also had to play out the closing stages with 10 men when Evans’ foul earned him a second booking of the afternoon.
The fourth official’s display of six additional minutes spurred the home side on in their search for a winner.
But Pompey were able to see that out to secure a point and end Wigan’s 100 per cent start to the League One campaign.

First and foremost, I enjoy it. I enjoy having an outlet (that may or may not be read by others) where I can exercise my thoughts and my writing skills, skills that need constant attention. I have a certain passion for writing, reading, politics and basic information sharing; my blog provides a little escape for many of my pent-up thoughts.
Blogging puts you in the position every sales person wants to be, in direct communication with potential prospects who have a certain degree of confidence in you at a personal level.”
With a blog, there is no need for the painfully obvious script that some salesmen use to develop closeness with a prospect. If some one reads your blog for even a short while, they have some feeling for what kind of person you are. You can try to put on a different, and better, personality for blogging, but your real personality has a habit of showing through.

Translated Letter from Hazur Sawan Singh to Kirpal Singh dated 11 June 1939
May the compassion of the Lord of thy soul be with thee, may the Lord of thy soul help thee ever and anon.
Dear Kirpal Singh Ji,
I have received your loving letter and am happy to read its contents. My dear, Saints inherit discomfort in life.
When the Crown of Love was placed on my head, sighs were given as cash grant and desert as property.'
We are puppets in the Lord’s hands, we are dragged by our destiny; we go wherever we are ordained to, Nanak, how true it is!
We people have come (into the world) to serve the Lord. You keep yourself engaged in meditation and complete the course of Spirituality. But, the service of His creation is equally essential. Look at me. I remain engaged in the service of humanity from morn till night. Sometimes I do not get sufficient time to do meditation, but Hazur Maharaj (Baba Jaimal Singh Ji) used to say that service (to the humanity) is no less important than meditation. And, if you feel that people do not pay as much attention to our Love as they should, we do not expect any compensation for our services to the Satsang. All sorts of people come in Satsang. There are some whose hearts are overflowing with Love and are ready to sacrifice their all – body, mind and money. There are also some who indulge in tall talk and calumny; they are ever ready to slander. But our duty is to love all.
If they do not give up their wicked ways, why should we leave our noble ways.
My advice to you is that you should do Satsang while fulfilling your official duties honestly and also complete your course of Bhajan and Simran. I am greatly pleased with you. You are serving the Lord with all your resources – body, mind and money.
Convey my greetings to Bibi Krishna and Love to children.
Sd/- Sawan Singh
11 June 1939

Update from Mrs. Weber
Another great week of learning! The kiddos continue to work so hard each day-I am so proud of them. The snow people look fantastic-photos are below!
If your child wears snow boots to school, they must bring a change of shoes. Those boots are bulky and hot in the classroom. Also please be sure your child is dressed appropriately to be outside for recess each day.
If your child tests positive, please notify nurse Judy immediately and keep them home, even if you think the test result may not be accurate. Also if a student or immediate family member is awaiting COVID test results, the student should NOT come to school. If a household family member is positive, students should remain at home in quarantine since they are a contact of a positive case. In all instances, please let nurse Judy know about pending and confirmed results. [email protected]
All cars need to stop at the stop sign in the drop off lane. Buses have the right of way entering and exiting the bus loop and driveway- all traffic must yield to them. All car traffic needs to enter from Soundivew and exit Willoughby regardless of where you park and how much traffic there is. Thank you for helping to keep everyone safe.

As head of the Graubünden cantonal police, Walter Schlegel is responsible for security at the World Economic Forum, to be held from January 20 to 23 in Davos. In a Q&A interview published on Sunday in the newspaper NZZ am Sonntag, he talked about the challenges.This content was published on January 10, 2016 - 14:33
The situation leading up to this Forum is more difficult than in past years, even in comparison to the 2015 attacks on the satire journal Charlie Hebdo in France, said Schlegel.
“The bombings in Paris last November represent a new sort of threat for WEF, and require new measures,” he said. “For the first time in Europe, terrorists used explosive belts for suicide bombings.”
Confronted with this new scenario, the Swiss police have increased investigative activities and inspections, said Schlegel. These include using specially trained dogs to check for explosives being transported in automobiles, and tightened security on access routes leading to Davos.
According to Schlegel, there is an abstract increased risk of terrorist activity, but no concrete indications of potential events.
A range of security organisations are working together to continually monitor the situation before and during the annual Forum, said Schlegel. These include the Federal Office of Police, the Swiss Intelligence Service, the border police, the local police force, and members of foreign intelligence services.
With all these groups working together, said Schlegel, “we’re well covered.”
In addition, up to 5,000 Army troops are available to perform a range of tasks, including collecting and communicating relevant information. In 2015 around 3,200 members of the Army were deployed. In 2016 they will have more to do than in 2015, said Schlegel.
Besides providing general security, Switzerland is required to provide personal protection for high-raking politicians. In 2015 that amounted to 80 people.
According to Schlegel, it’s important that the World Economic Forum not be allowed to grow any further.
“From a security perspective, we’re at the upper limit.”

A mechanical maintenance supervisor oversees the work of a whole maintenance team that ensures a company's machines are running smoothly. They can work in manufacturing, retail, or any other business that relies on machines in order to do their job.
Mechanical maintenance supervisors spend most of their time conducting routine checks and preventative maintenance to avoid big, unexpected breakdowns, but they also step in to troubleshoot repairs once a machine stops working. Besides their hands-on work, mechanical maintenance supervisors are also responsible for leading a whole team of mechanics. They handle logistics such as ordering supplies, hiring new workers, and developing plans to optimize a company's maintenance plans.
Before they can supervise others, mechanical maintenance supervisors need to gain plenty of experience in their field. Most spend several years working as maintenance technicians before earning a promotion to a supervising role. Formal education is less important than practical experience, and most mechanical maintenance supervisors only went to a vocational school.
Mechanical maintenance supervisors have more responsibilities but also a higher paycheck. Mechanical maintenance supervisors earn an average salary of $53,741 a year.
There is more than meets the eye when it comes to being a Mechanical Maintenance Supervisor. For example, did you know that they make an average of $33.97 an hour? That's $70,654 a year!
Between 2018 and 2028, the career is expected to grow 6% and produce 85,400 job opportunities across the U.S.
There are certain skills that many Mechanical Maintenance Supervisors have in order to accomplish their responsibilities. By taking a look through resumes, we were able to narrow down the most common skills for a person in this position. We discovered that a lot of resumes listed Customer-service skills, Dexterity and Troubleshooting skills.
If you're interested in becoming a Mechanical Maintenance Supervisor, one of the first things to consider is how much education you need. We've determined that 31.7% of Mechanical Maintenance Supervisors have a bachelor's degree. In terms of higher education levels, we found that 3.7% of Mechanical Maintenance Supervisors have master's degrees. Even though some Mechanical Maintenance Supervisors have a college degree, it's possible to become one with only a high school degree or GED.
Choosing the right major is always an important step when researching how to become a Mechanical Maintenance Supervisor. When we researched the most common majors for a Mechanical Maintenance Supervisor, we found that they most commonly earn Bachelor's Degree degrees or Associate Degree degrees. Other degrees that we often see on Mechanical Maintenance Supervisor resumes include High School Diploma degrees or Diploma degrees.
You may find that experience in other jobs will help you become a Mechanical Maintenance Supervisor. In fact, many Mechanical Maintenance Supervisor jobs require experience in a role such as Maintenance Technician. Meanwhile, many Mechanical Maintenance Supervisors also have previous career experience in roles such as Maintenance Supervisor or Mechanic. | <urn:uuid:cb6f9f94-9dc7-4169-9188-b580f8dac8da> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://www.zippia.com/mechanical-maintenance-supervisor-jobs/ | 2022-01-17T20:02:51Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320300616.11/warc/CC-MAIN-20220117182124-20220117212124-00078.warc.gz | en | 0.951052 | 585 |

The following drawing is an oversimplification of the process, but here the process starts with the opening of a shift in the POS (with start amount declaration), and then start selling in POS. Each time the job P-0001 upload channel transaction is executed, the transactions are fetched from the channel databases, and imported to D365F&O. If you are using shift-based statements, a statement will be calculated when the shift is closed. Using shift-based closing can be tricky, but I highly recommend doing this! After the statement is calculated and there are no issues, the statement will be posted, and an invoiced sales order is created. Then you have all your inventory and financial transactions in place.
What I often do see, is that customers are using 3 separate batch jobs for this. The results in the user experience that the retail statement form contains many calculated statements waiting for statement posting. Some customers say they only want to see statements where there are issues (like cash differences after shift is closed).
By combining the batch jobs into a sequenced batch job, then the calculated statements will be posted right again, instead of waiting until the post statement batch job is executed. Here is how to set this up:
1. Manually create a new “blank” batch job
2. Click on “View Tasks”.
3. Add the following 4 classes:
RetailCDXScheduleRunner – Upload channel transaction (also called P-job)
RetailTransactionSalesTransMark_Multi – Post inventory
RetailEodStatementCalculateBatchScheduler– Calculate statement
RetailEodStatementPostBatchScheduler – Post statement
Here I choose to include upload of transactions, post inventory, calculate statement and post statement into a single batch-job.
Also remember to ignore task failures.
And remember to click on the “parameters” to set the parameters on each task, like what organization notes that should be included.
On each batch task I also add conditions, so that the previous step needs to be completed before the batch-job starts on the next.
Then I have 1 single batch job, and when executing it spawns subsequent tasks nicely.
The benefit of this is that when you are opening the statements workspace you mostly see statements where there are cash differences, or where the issues on master data.
Take case and post your retail statements. | <urn:uuid:e22401fb-e4e1-4a73-bce3-952a14f8d3d0> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | http://axhelper.com/?p=31662 | 2022-01-19T05:38:56Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320301263.50/warc/CC-MAIN-20220119033421-20220119063421-00158.warc.gz | en | 0.915164 | 600 |

You Know Where To Find Me, by Rachel Cohn
Laura and Miles were cousins, and as close as they could be. And while they appeared to share nothing in common (Laura was petite and popular; Miles overweight and a loner), they were very close. As they grew up and transitioned from fantasy play in the tree house to abusing prescription pain killers, they maintained their tight bond. Laura was always the one who had it together, so when it is Laura who kills herself, no one can believe it. And Miles who has the most trouble struggling to survive without her lifeline.
A bit of a departure for Cohn, this downer novel suffers from a dead plot (pun intended). The theme is grief, but you have probably never seen the phases of sorrow depicted as dull as this. Virtually nothing happens in this story and saddling the plot with an unsympathetic heroine does not really help things along. Give this a pass! | <urn:uuid:65c19fa9-ef5c-48f8-a18f-42c91db1c2a1> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | http://blog.goldschp.net/2008/06/you-know-where-to-find-me-by-rachel.html | 2022-01-19T05:36:37Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320301263.50/warc/CC-MAIN-20220119033421-20220119063421-00158.warc.gz | en | 0.98555 | 200 |
From now on, there will be international cuisine in the office canteens. Since the company operates in six geographies there will be a host of items to choose from.
In the lunch room, there are burgers and corn to represent American cuisine, flavoured rice and vegetable fritters for Africa, pasta and baguette options to give a feel of European cuisine, noodles and fried rice for a taste of Asia Pacific, ‘Chiko’ rolls, a savoury snack to represent Australia and New Zealand, fruits and dates to represent West Asia. There are also Indian items aplenty, ranging from vegetable ‘pulao’ to ‘wada pav.’
Through its varied food offerings, the company hopes to live up its tagline ‘Connected World, Connected Solutions’. The tagline has been changing over time – it used to be "our people make the difference” and then “what business demands" under B Ramalinga Raju, erstwhile Satyam founder during whose term at the helm the books were cooked. Employees hope the newly merged entity will live up to its new goals and aspirations.
The company has revenues of $2.7 billion and a team of 84,000 professionals. It services 540 customers across 46 countries.
A new corporate brand has been born - the new entity also being called Tech Mahindra, after the parent company, albeit with a new logo.
At around 11.30 am on June 25, employees of Mahindra Satyam (Satyam Computer before Mahindras acquired it in 2009) received an email from Vineet Nayyar, Executive Vice Chairman, Tech Mahindra. It informed about the amalgamation and the creation of the new logo.
Form 21 duly filled in, had been filed the previous day with the Registrar of Companies in Andhra Pradesh. The submission of this form for approval by the RoC means that on paper Satyam Computer Services as a company stands dissolved.
For old Satyam employees, it has been a tumultuous 54 months. It was in January 2009, that Ramalinga Raju admitted that the books had falsified revenues.
According to a company official, the last date for trading in this scrip is July 5; thereafter it will be Tech Mahindra. By this time, the shareholders, over 5 lakh, would have migrated to the new entity. The share swap ratio: for every 17 shares of Satyam Computer, the shareholder will get two shares of Tech Mahindra.
Those within the company are convinced that perhaps sticking to the old brand "Tech Mahindra" albeit with a new logo would help. But not everyone is convinced. To those who have watched the two companies closely over the years, Tech Mahindra has been a long time player and seen as being focused on the telecom space and not so much as a provider of broader IT services like Satyam. However, what may work for the company is the fact that since this is not a consumer space. In a B2B world, it may not be a huge branding challenge.
Recently, C. P. Gurnani, the CEO and MD of the company told Business Today, "We are ready to press the pedal harder with a goal to become a $5 billion company by December 2015.” Analysts however see this as an ambitious target, especially in the current environment where the global market is difficult. IT spends are recovering but slowly. To get there in this timeframe, the company would need enter newer markets and newer geographies. Few would mind if that also translates into an expanded menu card with more offerings. | <urn:uuid:a60bd179-7f1d-4a70-9daf-21476b45d32f> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | http://blogs.intoday.in/headlinestoday/satyam-change-after-tech-mahindra-merger-63051.html | 2022-01-19T03:55:34Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320301263.50/warc/CC-MAIN-20220119033421-20220119063421-00158.warc.gz | en | 0.96952 | 757 |

Eight of 10 (80%) fludarabine-resistant samples derived from abnormalities, who are characterized by constitutively higher levels of HIF-1. of CLL, induces long-lasting responses in the majority of patients, improving outcome with relatively limited toxicities.10 However, patients with disruption of the gene (proteasomal degradation, other signaling pathways, such as PI3K/AKT and RAS/ERK1-2, contribute to HIF-1 accumulation, stability regulation or synthesis induction.12,15 HIF-1 is constitutively expressed in CLL cells compared to normal B cells due to microRNA-mediated Remetinostat down-regulation of the von Hippel-Lindau protein (pVHL),16 a ubiquitin ligase responsible for HIF-1 degradation.12 In addition, in CLL cells, HIF-1 is up-regulated by interactions with stromal cells (SC) and by exposure to hypoxic microenvironments, thus promoting the survival and propagation Remetinostat of leukemic cells, and their metabolic adaptation to the protective conditions of the tumor niche.17C20 We have already reported that HIF-1 is involved in drug resistance mechanisms in patients with unmutated (UM) immunoglobulin heavy chain variable region genes (IGHV).20 The gene encodes one of the best-studied tumor suppressor proteins, which is often mutated in cancer, thus promoting cell survival, proliferation and drug resistance. 21 p53 may also play a pivotal role in the regulation of HIF-1, since in conditions of prolonged hypoxia/anoxia, the protein accumulates and promotes HIF-1 destruction.22 In solid tumors, loss of function associates with constitutive elevated levels of HIF-1.12,22,23 In this study, we found that HIF-1 is over-expressed in CLL cells from patients carrying aberrations, also elucidating the molecular mechanisms implicated in the constitutive (knockout version (together with the list of antibodies used for western blot (WB) analyses.

Interestingly, the expression of HIF-1 protein and mRNA was higher in and was also significantly higher in disruption. The expression of HIF-1 and HIF-1 target genes was measured in and expression levels in and in the abnormalities were associated with an upregulation of a number of genes belonging to the the gene list index and a portion of the corresponding heatmap highlighting the relative expression of gene members belonging to the baseline expression in abnormalities lead to Remetinostat a reduced expression of pVHL and subsequently to an accumulation of HIF-1 protein. Hypoxia and stromal cells further increase HIF-1 expression in chronic lymphocytic leukemia cells from status of the leukemic cells, also in an attempt to better define the underlying molecular mechanisms. To this end, CLL cells had been cultured for 48 h in condition of hypoxia or in the current presence of SC. Of be aware, culture partly abrogated the position (Amount 3A), and was linked to Mouse monoclonal to PCNA.PCNA is a marker for cells in early G1 phase and S phase of the cell cycle. It is found in the nucleus and is a cofactor of DNA polymerase delta. PCNA acts as a homotrimer and helps increase the processivity of leading strand synthesis during DNA replication. In response to DNA damage, PCNA is ubiquitinated and is involved in the RAD6 dependent DNA repair pathway. Two transcript variants encoding the same protein have been found for PCNA. Pseudogenes of this gene have been described on chromosome 4 and on the X chromosome a lower life expectancy appearance of pVHL (Amount 3B), also to an activation from the PI3K/AKT and RAS/ERK1-2 pathways (Amount 3C-F). Regularly, we noticed that blocking focus of pharmacologic realtors inhibiting ERK1-2 (PD98059) and PI3K (LY294002) successfully counteracted the hypoxia-induced HIF-1 upregulation, separately of position (Amount 3G).

I’m back, baby! Here’s the 3rd and final part from Star Wars. Hendrik and I were performing on our zenith of powers.
First hand I was holding this red twosuiter. With Hendrik I agreed weak jump reverses, so this hand fits nicely.
Not afraid of the vulnerability or lack of Aces I competed to the 5-level. Hendrik showed faith by not doubling 5. He expected big distribution instead of solid amounts of points in my hand.
I got a ruff, which was worth 1 whole imp. As you can see, there are a lot of tricks to take for both sides.

You see it on chalkboards & social media…facebook, Instagram and Pinterest. The beautiful font type that is known as Modern Calligraphy. Depending on the style, it can look elegant, pretty, flowy & even edgy. You look at this gorgeous calligraphy & you think “I could never do that”. Well, think again. You can do it! You don’t even have to have great penmanship in order to practice this popular art form. In fact, if you saw my cursive writing, you would shake your head in disbelief.
Getting a regular practice going can seem daunting, but I’m here to tell you that it doesn’t have to be. I’ll let you in on a little secret…the easiest way to learn Modern Brush Calligraphy is simply by not using a brush pen at all! The best way to begin is to buy yourself an inexpensive pack of Broadline Crayola markers. You don’t even have to buy Crayola brand…I bought a pack for $1.50 at the dollar store!
The next thing you’ll need is paper. I recommend a paper that is has a good weight to it that won’t let the ink bleed through. My favourite is laserjet paper that I found at Staples: HP 113100 Premium Choice LaserJet Paper, 98 Brightness, 32lb, 8-1/2×11, White, 500 Sheets per Ream. All that’s left to get started is to download my free Introduction to Crayola Calligraphy workbook. Be sure to print this booklet onto the laserjet paper mentioned above. Next, sit yourself down and practice, practice, practice. Alternatively, you can download the workbook & then upload the photos into the Procreate App & practice your lettering with the iPad Pro & Apple Pencil.
Give yourself 10 minutes a day to get your hand used to the soothing, repetitive line strokes. With practice, your hand will develop a sort of muscle memory for this type of writing. Before you know it, your calligraphy will go from shaky & a little unsure…to easy flowing & gorgeous.
The reason a broad line marker is great for a beginner calligrapher is that there is much more control in using this type of marker vs. an actual brush marker. The tip of a broad tip marker is rigid, whereas the tip of a brush tip is just that….flexible like a brush.
When I was young I taught myself the traditional style calligraphy. It had a very different look than this modern calligraphy. The more I saw this beautiful modern calligraphy, the more I wanted to learn it myself. I experimented with using different supplies such as the traditional pen/nib and ink, brush markers, paintbrushes, and broad tip markers.
In order to learn Modern Calligraphy, I had to let go of the muscle memory I had for the traditional style and open myself up to a new type of practice. After trying all of the above-mentioned supplies, I found that using a broad tip marker was the easiest way to get started. With this type of marker fine upward strokes are created effortlessly by applying little pressure, and broad downward strokes are created by holding the marker at a slight angle and exerting more pressure on the marker against the paper.
Over time, in just 10 minutes a day, not only will you see improvements in your calligraphy, but you’ll feel a sense of accomplishment and a sense of calm when practicing. Once you have mastered this type of “faux” brush calligraphy, you’ll have the muscle memory you need to graduate into using actual brush markers…more expensive, and challenging, but also very fun & rewarding. Let’s get practicing! | <urn:uuid:a3b4cdf0-5edf-439f-81ba-c88d75473654> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://angiebaileyartandsoul.com/2017/10/19/simplest-way-to-learn-modern-brush-calligraphy/ | 2022-01-19T05:12:56Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320301263.50/warc/CC-MAIN-20220119033421-20220119063421-00158.warc.gz | en | 0.94461 | 795 |
Cebu Pacific Air has added a second Australian port to its growing international network with the start on nonstop flights between Manila and Melbourne Tullamarine.
Flight 5J 49, operated by Airbus A330-300 RP-C3347, touched down at about 1615 on Tuesday, following its eight-hour journey from Manila.
The aircraft received an Airservices Aviation Rescue and Fire Fighting (ARFF) monitor cross as while taxiing to Melbourne Tullamarine’s international terminal.
After about 90 minutes on the ground, the A330-300 took off as the reciprocal 5J 50 bound for Manila.
The start of nonstop flights to Melbourne, which will be served three times a week, comes four years after Cebu Pacific entered the Australian market when it began serving Sydney in September 2014.
“Our thrice weekly direct service between Melbourne and Manila is a wonderful opportunity to live up to the Cebu Pacific mission of bringing people together through safe, affordable, reliable and fun-filled air travel,” Cebu Pacific chief operations adviser Rick Howell said in a statement.
“Melbourne is our second destination in Australia, and we look forward to growing here as we’ve done and continue to do since we first started direct flights to Australia in 2014.”
Cebu Pacific, which has eight A330-300s in a high-density single-class configuration of 436 seats at nine-abreast, will compete with Philippine Airlines (PAL) on the Melbourne-Manila route.
In 2015, the governments of Australia and the Philippines agreed to expand the number of seats available to Philippine carriers under a new air services agreement between the two countries.
The new arrangements increased the capacity entitlements for Philippines flag carriers to 8,300 seats per week, from 6,000 seats per week previously.

There was be a further jump up in March 2016, when the cap was lifted to 9,300 seats per week for Philippines carriers operating to the four main Australian gateways of Brisbane, Melbourne, Perth and Sydney.
The new bilateral enabled Cebu Pacific, which had been lobbying for an increase in available capacity to Australia, to boost its five flights a week to Sydney to daily and begin services to Melbourne.
Aviation thinktank CAPA – Centre for Aviation noted recently Melbourne-Manila had been an underserved route for many years, with only PAL offering nonstop flights, compared with Sydney-Manila, where Cebu Pacific, PAL and Qantas are on the route.
However, the arrival of Cebu Pacific at Melbourne Tullamarine followed PAL recently increasing its three times a week offering to five flights a week, with the schedule to go to daily at the end of October.
There will also be capacity increases at Sydney, where PAL is going from daily to 11 times weekly on the Sydney-Manila route from December. Qantas has also planned to go from six times weekly to daily on Sydney-Manila from late October.
“Combined the three airlines will have 37 weekly flights in the Australia-Philippines during the peak summer season compared to 27 frequencies last summer,” CAPA said in a July research note.
“Overcapacity is a concern as the number of flights increases.
“The average load factor on Australia-Philippines flights in 2017 was only 74 per cent.
“PAL particularly struggled to fill seats, experiencing an average load factor on Australia-Philippines routes of 69 per cent while Cebu Pacific had a higher 77 per cent load factor and Qantas a strong 88 per cent.
“As PAL adds flights to Melbourne and Sydney, its load factor will likely be pressured even further.”
Melbourne Airport chief of aviation Simon Gandy said the new flight would increase cargo capacity between Melbourne and Manila by 50 per cent and help open up opportunities for freight flows to and from the Philippines and North Asia.

Information about Measure A
Community Update on Measure A
Apple Valley Fire Protection District Local Emergency Response/Fire Protection Continuation Measure
On August 2nd the Apple Valley Fire Protection District Board of Directors unanimously placed Measure A on the November 2016 ballot, for voter consideration. If enacted, Measure A would continue local funding with a $59.88 annual rate adjustment to help reopen closed local fire stations and reduce response times.
Funds from Measure A would help address community priorities such as:
•Reduce 9-1-1 emergency response times
• Improve the ability of local firefighters to respond to several emergencies at the same time
• Improve emergency response times to meet National Fire Protection Standards
• Maintain professional fire protection for local residents
• Reopen our closed stations and providing better coverage for the entire region to reduce 9-1-1 response times to all neighborhoods
Measure A requires independent annual audits and citizens’ oversight to make sure funds are used effectively, efficiently, and locally as promised. All Measure A funds must be used locally for 9-1-1 emergency response and fire protection services—by law, these funds cannot be used for any other purpose. No funds can be taken by the State.

“We are yet to find a Hrishikesh Mukherjee in our times,” writes Prakash Gowda.
“I wouldn’t like a film to be made on my life. Parts of me have already been projected in some of my films. Satyakam reflects my idealism, Chupke Chupke my humour and Alaap my pessimism, while Bawarchi was about my father…” This quote by Hrishikesh Mukherjee in the book, ‘Talking Cinema’ kind of sums up this remarkable book by Jai Arjun Singh.
In fact, the author has created a world within 300 odd paper sheets neatly bound between cardboard papers. So, calling ‘The world of Hrishikesh Mukherjee’ a book would be indeed unfair. Book sounds tad ordinary, making it belong to either the highest Rushdish echelons or lowest Bhagatish levels.
So book just happens to be a medium here. It might as well be termed a film in alphabets, symphony in 26 notes, or perhaps a time travel machine. Anything is fine, as long as it’s not being compared to any literature. Ask any Hrishi da fan and you’ll know what I mean. And while we’re at it, who doesn’t love Hrishikesh Mukherjee? (Precisely what the book’s cover reads: The filmmaker everyone loves).
Call it a romanticist musing or a fanboy’s indulgence, but Jai Arjun Singh’s ‘The world of Hrishikesh Mukherjee’ is a book that will evoke such extremes and compel you to grab the DVD of those films that become almost a character in this ‘world’ of simplicity and treasure trove of stories.
The chapter, ‘Yeh raha mera makaan’ takes you through the homes of Hrishikesh Mukherjee films. These homes, right from Hrishi da’s films surely seem familiar. We’ve been there over a cup of tea (how can a Hrishi da films be complete without chaai?), a game of chess (His favourite), a game of ‘kaafiya’ where words rhyme with the beats of one’s heart, ‘naatak’ being played out as pranks or perhaps discussing Botany and English literature by the idyllic ‘corolla’-filled lawn.
Jai Arjun Singh makes the reader stay there for a while before moving on to the other aspects of Hrishi-da films – his personal favourite, ‘Satyakam’, the ‘commercial’ films like ‘Anari’, ‘Asli Naqli’, ‘Chupke Chupke’ and ‘Golmaal’, real life inspirations from ‘Bawarchi’, ‘Anupama’, ‘Anuradha’, pessimistic musings like ‘Alaap’ and a perfect tribute to our film industry like ‘Guddi’ (The only contemporary film that can perhaps come close to it is Zoya Akhtar’s ‘Luck by chance’).
Apart from these gems, the author doesn’t shy away from criticizing his failures like Achha Bura, Kotwal Saab, Sabse Bada Sukh, Aashiq, to name a few. Well, even these chapters are richly rewarding to the reader. Sample this:
“And here is Deven Varma in real life (Hrishi-da’s interview to Lata Khubchandani in Encyclopedia of Hindi Cinema):
Deven (Varma) once asked me (Hrishi-da), ‘Why does somebody always die in your films?’ I asked him, ‘Who died in ‘Sabse Bada Sukh?’ Deven replied, ‘The distributor!’ (pp. 492-94)”
The ‘deliberate faults’ in basic grammar of filmmaking like beginning ‘Anand’ with a flashback of Dr. Bhaskar (Amitabh Bachchan) musing about his patient, Anand (Rajesh Khanna) and ending the film with Anand’s death instead of going back where the film begins (I bet you never realized this ‘mistake’ before reading this and you must thank Hrishi-da’s filmmaking skills for it), to the genius in capturing camaraderie in films like ‘Satyakam’ (Sanjeev Kumar-Dharmendra), ‘Anand’, ‘Namak Haraam’ (Amitabh Bachchan-Rajesh Khanna), to delving into the labyrinthine lanes of marriage and ego in ‘Abhimaan’, each aspect of Hrishikesh Mukherjee films greet you with a glee of a childhood friend.
Last, but as the cliché goes, not the least, the best thing about Jai Arjun Singh’s ‘The world of Hrishikesh Mukherjee’ is its unusual structure. Unlike other authors penning ‘autobiographies’ or ‘analytical musings’ of a film director, lyricist or musician, Jai Arjun Singh doesn’t treat Hrishikesh Mukherjee films like chapters of his book.
For instance, he doesn’t begin with ‘Musafir’ and end with ‘Jhooth Bole Kauva Kaate’. The films keep revisiting you as and when the need arises. If he’s talking about ‘chaai’ in Hrishi-da films, ‘Khoobsurat’ obliges with an encore, just like ‘Bawarchi’ might show up while discussing classical music in the same breath as ‘Alaap’. At first, this structure might make you wonder, ‘Why isn’t the author yet done with ‘Mili’ and ‘Abhimaan’?’ By the time you reach the final pages, you’ll appreciate the craft.
“I’ve made 40 films, I’m exhausted and burnt out. In retrospect I feel I should have been choosier. But then, I’m not a very courageous man. I never had the nerve to break away from the commercial structure. So how can I be proud of my work? Today’s TV serials are like the films I make myself: skin-deep, shallow, only meant to entertain.”
This Hrishi-da quote from Times of India (March 1985), followed by “I was fortunate to be in an industry where one is lionized even if one is average or a little above average.” From Times of India (September 1995) leaves one marveling at the modesty of this man who remains an idol for millions and shall always remain so. We are yet to find a Hrishikesh Mukherjee in our times.
Till then, all we can do is watch his films while flipping through the pages of Jai Arjun Singh’s ‘The world of Hrishikesh Mukherjee’. Reading it leaves one wishing to have a conversation with the author over a cup of ‘chaai’ and indulging in some Hrishikesh Mukherjee anecdotes that he might have omitted or perhaps reserved for the Hrishi-da fan in him. Now when was the last time reams of papers made you feel that way? Dare you call this a book! It’s a world – the world of Hrishikesh Mukherjee.

In one article today, the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel describes the xenophobia and discrimination that Wisconsin residents of Hmong and other Asian backgrounds are experiencing during the COVID-19 pandemic.
The Wisconsin United Coalition of Mutual Assistance Association in Appleton, which focuses on issues related to the Hmong and Southeast Asian community, condemned racist incidents along with 15 leaders of other organizations in an April 15 statement.
“Racist actions such as racial slurs, xenophobic indifference in public settings, and property damage have continued to increase in Wisconsin, and in these uncertain times, it is critical that everyone feels safe and supported, so we can collectively overcome the challenges and tragedies of COVID-19,” the statement read.
Lo Neng Kiatoukaysy, executive director of the Hmong American Friendship Association in Milwaukee, said there has “quite a bit” of racism targeted at the Hmong and Asian community.
“It’s not pleasant,” Kiatoukaysy said. “Our people … they always turn the other cheek.”
“Some people, when they make stupid remarks at our people, they don’t say it to your face,” Kiatoukaysy said. “But they say it in a way that you hear it and walk away.”
Meanwhile, on the front page is a story about Wisconsin National Guard troops who are helping with the expanded coronavirus testing by making calls to Wisconsin residents with their test results. At least two of the Guards mentioned seem to be of Hmong ancestry.
So on the one hand Wisconsin wants to vilify residents because of who they are…while on the other hand accepting their help as heroes in time of crisis.

At the conclusion of 2014, Apple Inc. recorded the most lucrative quarter of any company in history, and its market capitalization shortly topped $700 billion. ‘Apple Inc in 2015’ investigates its sustained increase under Tim Cook, the history of Apple, its successes under Jobs, as well as the challenges facing the organization in 2015. With iPod sales continuing their freefall, tablet PC sales in fall, as well as the market share staying modest of the Macintosh, Apple was increasingly determined by the iPhone to increase its growth.
Could Cook continue Apple’s dominance in the Smartphone marketplace in the face of growing rivalry? Could he become a leader in payments revitalize the iPad business, with Apple Pay, and repeat Apple’s success in other apparatus types, including the Apple Watch, the first new product the company had released since 2010? | <urn:uuid:673d7703-6a2a-4acd-8a9d-e9da84990d2d> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://caseism.com/apple-inc-in-2015-54605 | 2022-01-19T04:49:22Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320301263.50/warc/CC-MAIN-20220119033421-20220119063421-00158.warc.gz | en | 0.957181 | 227 |

Best Low Fee Crypto Exchanges
Novices in the crypto trading world quickly realize they’re getting ripped off on fees by their exchange. For Coinbase users, it could be the 2% crypto-to-crypto commission. Or Kraken user’s spreads sometimes reach up to 10%. Whatever the case, when a trader realizes that moving exchange platforms could improve their profit margins, they must then ask the question, ‘Where can I trade with the lowest fees?’. The questions don’t stop there, though, because rock-bottom fees might not translate into a quality platform with good liquidity, a wide selection of crypto, and a reputable security past.
Considering everything we know about cryptocurrency exchanges and what makes them fantastic or forgettable, we’ve put together the following factors to consider:
Ranking methodology – How we decided which exchanges to consider
- Tier 0 / Beginner Trading Fee: Less than 0.2/0.25% maker-taker
- Must offer discounts to high volume traders
- At least 50 trading pairs to choose from
- More than $250m daily trading volume
- Trustworthiness factor
In-Depth Breakdown of the Best Low Fee Exchanges
Binance surged past all competitors and became the world’s best and biggest exchange in less than four years. Daily crypto trading volume now regularly surpasses $25 billion, an extraordinary sum that reflects their sheer market dominance. It hasn’t been all smooth sailing though, in May 2019, hackers managed to escape with 7,000 Bitcoin, though this was a wake-up call in truth. They needed to improve their security measures, and as a result, Binance redoubled their efforts; they’ve been effectively bulletproof since.
- The world’s biggest exchange
- Low fees starting from 0.1% (maker and taker)
- Over 1,100 trading pairs
- Praised for innovation
- Great discounts for high-volume traders
What about fees? You’d think a company that has virtually cornered the crypto exchange marketplace would consider increasing their fees. Still, no, at 0.1% for both makers and takers (tier 0), their fees are among the industry’s lowest. The exchange fees drop, too, with the lowest possible fees to the highest volume traders being a minuscule 0.012% and 0.024% for makers and takers, respectively. To unlock the minimum fees, users will need to pay their trading fees in BNB and participate in the user referral scheme.
Between starting writing this piece and finishing it, one new coin and three market pairs were added, totaling 345 coins and 1,141 trading pairs. With new cryptocurrencies and market pairs added to the cryptocurrency exchange every single day, it makes it a little hard for us to report an accurate real-time figure.
Note that there’s no deposit fee, but withdrawal fees are charged based on the cryptocurrency moved away from the platform. The withdrawal fee for each is minimal.
See the full schedule below or explore it here.
Hold up, what is a maker fee and a taker fee?
Cryptocurrency exchanges need to make money, right? So, they can’t offer 0% fees to everybody, that wouldn’t be sustainable. Instead, what they do is they add a small percentage charge to each fulfilled trade that you make. Here’s an example.
You want to buy $100 worth of Bitcoin (BTC) with your Tether (USDT). The current price of Bitcoin is $60,000. You don’t want to buy Bitcoin at this price; you’d rather wait until it reaches $50,000. To do that, you place a limit order, and in doing so, you become a market maker. A maker is someone who provides liquidity to the exchange before their transaction takes place; in this case, you are providing $100 of Tether liquidity. Since crypto exchanges need liquidity to make swaps happen fast, makers are rewarded with slightly lower fees than takers, perhaps 0.08% instead of 0.1%.
Market takers are those who are more than happy to execute their trades at the current market price and, in most instances, pay slightly higher trading fees to the exchanges for this convenience. This is because they are the ones taking liquidity away from crypto exchanges when trading their cryptocurrencies.
Why did Binance win?
- Perfect place for beginner traders to get started.
- Fees so small you wouldn’t notice them.
- BNB discount and referral scheme incentives.
- No deposit fees.
- Excellent liquidity and trade volume for Bitcoin, Ethereum & more.
- The $4-5 billion-plus Bitcoin passing through Binance each day is more than most crypto exchanges process in a week.
- Impressively, Bitcoin only represents around 7% of their spot trading, representing low BTC dominance.
- Dozens of options for fiat currency deposits and payments, including credit card.
If you’re an American or US resident reading this, you’ll already know the cryptocurrency world isn’t quite as accessible as it is to our friends over the pond. Regardless, crypto exchanges and trading platforms like Gate.io are doing their best to ensure we don’t get left behind. They provide a great experience with a massive range of altcoins (any cryptocurrency that isn’t Bitcoin) and trading pairs to enjoy. Due to the altcoin selection, which is currently boasting 548 coins in 1235 pairs, we believe this is the top bitcoin exchange in the United States.
- Low fees starting from 0.2% (maker and taker)
- Cheap withdrawal fees (0.0005 BTC)
- Possible for multi-billion monthly traders to earn rebates
- Hacked by a suspected white-hat hacker (someone who hacks for the greater good rather than personal gain)
What about their fees? Trading fees are below the industry average, which depending on who you ask, varies from 0.25% to 0.4%, so you’ll find Gate.io’s 0.2% taker fee and 0.2% maker fee quite agreeable. To benefit from even lower costs, users can use Gate’s native utility token, GateToken (GT), to pay their trading fees. At the lower end of the fee schedule (VIP 16), the minimum payable fees are -0.01% for makers and 0.025% for takers. These fees are pretty low. To give some idea of what that represents:
VIP 16 – Bitcoin & GT Discounts
- Monthly trading amount: 75,000 BTC (approx $4bn USD) or 50,000 GT (approx $90,000)
- Must be holding more than 2,500 BTC total
- Maker fee: -0.01% (this is a reward, not a fee)
- Taker fee: 0.025%
So, if you’re in this category, a transaction fee on a $4 billion order would, in fact, reward makers with $400,000, or, in turn, it would charge takers $1m in fees. This is why market makers can profit on some exchanges simply by moving around funds and providing liquidity.
There is a small withdrawal fee for each cryptocurrency charged in that coin, but it’s reportedly around 40% lower than most direct competitors. Deposits are free.
If there’s one downside, it would be that the 24-hour trading volume is low compared to behemoths like Binance, at around $400m per day. When you spread this among so many cryptocurrency choices and markets, it creates common liquidity issues in theory, but we’ve had no problems from our experience.
Binance vs Gate.io – Why is Gate.io 2nd?
We are SUPER bullish about Gate.io here in the US, backing it to become the crème de la crème of exchanges for US traders. It’s certainly headed that way for the global market, too, so as trading volume increases and trading fees decrease (wishful thinking), they may become a serious name in this industry.
|Tier 0 Maker/Taker fees||0.2%/0.2%||0.1%/0.1%|
|Trading volume (daily)||$400m avg.||$25bn avg.|
|Security record||Zero hacks||7,000 BTC Lost|
|Offers a DEX||No||Yes|
|Yield Farming, Staking, Lending||Yes||Yes|
*Binance does offer a secondary platform called Binance.US for American traders
Check out the full fee schedule here:
FTX has become a steady and popular cryptocurrency exchange with users worldwide, but sadly, not in the US or sanctioned countries. This crypto trading platform has the lowest fees of any exchange that meets our ranking criteria, and in fact, we were hard-pressed to find any rival exchanges that could come anywhere close (well, maybe one, as you’ll see later). It’s pretty hard to see how they even turn a profit with a 0.02% maker fee and a 0.07% taker fee.
- 0.02% maker and 0.07% taker fees — one of the most economical price structures ever
- Never been hacked
- The daily trading volume is regularly increasing — now around $1bn
- No withdrawal fees for crypto (network charges only)
The daily trading volume for the exchange has grown steadily in recent months, and on hectic days it breaches the $1bn mark, proving that offering the lowest fees can work wonders. Despite these positive trends, FTX is definitely slept on. Few people seem to give it the praise it deserves, especially when you consider it sits on the “never been hacked list” of crypto exchanges (they own Blockfolio, though, which was hacked).
A combination of 195 cryptocurrencies spun into 391 market pairs means there’s a pretty comprehensive range of altcoins, though not as extensive as exchanges like Binance or Gate.
For users trading over $50 million per month, maker fees drop to 0%, and taker fees reduce to 0.04%. An additional liquidity provider scheme can turn that 0% into -0.003% to provide rebates. The opportunity to discount fees as the volume increases are how a cryptocurrency exchange like Gate or Binance would attract institutional investors.
Why did FTX make our top 3?
With a natural-born leader like Bitcoin billionaire Sam Bankman-Fried at the helm, we expect to see FTX become the absolute envy of other crypto exchanges. Of course, the rock-bottom fees help, but it goes beyond that. This is a bitcoin exchange and trading platform that offers so many excellent investment instruments that it’s hard to know where to start, but thanks to excellent UX and UI, it’s easy to begin. There are a few payment options for users who want to buy Bitcoin directly, but they’re not that straightforward and typically charge a service fee. This is one of the few crypto exchanges that avoid fiat currency deposits and credit card payments, incentivizing crypto transactions instead.
What is a rebate?
When exploring a crypto exchange platform such as Gate.io, KuCoin, or Ascendex, you might find it odd when looking at their transfer fees to see the top tiers for the high-volume traders have negative fees. How can you charge -0.001%? You can’t. Instead, you give them some of their money back, except it’s not money; it’s cryptocurrency! So if you are a maker placing huge (like, huge-huge!) orders in crypto that don’t immediately fill, you can expect some rebates. Remember, all of these fees and percentages work out on a rolling 30-day basis.
Imagine you traded $5bn worth of cryptocurrency on one exchange in a single month to provide further context. You’d likely be a huge institutional client managing one of the world’s biggest portfolios. Wouldn’t you want some additional incentive for using a platform? A rebate is a bit like cashback. The percentage is small, but 0.001% of $4bn is $40,000, which could pay someone’s salary. Would it not encourage you to stay, or, if you saw a rival exchange was offering rebates, would it not encourage you to move?
What have we learned?
In the introductory paragraph, we mentioned that many people looking to migrate their funds and trading activities over to a new platform do so because the most popular on-ramps into crypto, like Coinbase and Gemini, are also the most expensive to use. It’s a catch-22.
So, now that you’ve seen our top three winners, you can decide for yourself which of these cryptocurrency exchanges is best for you and your Bitcoin.

So. Everton then eh, Forever Everton. Always there to brighten our collective days, there isn’t much to be excited about on the pitch at moment – we’re playing the kind of football you’d expect to see in Walton Hall Park on a sunday, its grim. It seems devoid of any real tactical endeavour. It’s like we’re in a weird twilight zone where at the beginning of the season we had the Ghost of Martinez passing footy, quick, effective football and that was replaced with the Santa Sam who ate all the pies, and tactics as a dessert, and like the ghost of Christmas past reappeared to criticize Silva.
Gomes has disappeared slightly, and its to be expected in light of results — maybe he’s decided that being a part of a team who look like they play blind football with each other isn’t really his thing, all thats missing is a bell in the ball for some of them
We welcome Bournemouth to Goodison Park, on what will likely be a bollock cold day, hats and gloves required and a steaming warm pint of Chang to make the day bearable, you’ll note that Bournemouth are suddenly attempting to sign as many average players from other clubs for silly money, something we’d never do. So with that in mind we can look forward to match full of footballing endeavour from the fabulous boys in blue.
Eddie Howe is an Evertonian i’ve recently learnt, which is bizzare given the fact he is a semi decent manager and was sounded out as a potential Everton, and England manager, hes achieved precisely nothing as a manager so will fit right in at Goodison. I also checked out some of their players, Chelsea are sniffing around someone called Callum Wilson who automatically will cost £50m because hes English. They also have the biggest sh*tehawk in footy, in Dan”nobody cares about me” Gosling who’s biggest claim to fame is his mar is called Hilary.
Will Silva likely insist on going 5 at the back again and this insane zonal marking method which has absolutely worked a treat. I’m no master tactician, and not a supporter who gets on the managers back, but results speak louder than performances, and we’re in the midst of a transfer window in which we’re likely to only see minimal incoming and outgoings.
It appears he’s already going grey, and losing his hair, the poor handsome frigger.
Perma-sulker Ademola Lookman played a decent game against Lincoln and managed to score a header which beat the goalkeeper, something akin to my sex life in which it seems improbable until it happens and with that in mind should likely be a starter in place of Theo Walcott who has morphed into what can only be described as a drone on the pitch, and chasing balls like a dog in the park.
We’re also playing with what feels like 10 men, with a severe like of goalscoring striking capability, Tosun, Niasse & Calvert-Lewin all having about as much luck in front of goal as Brexit Manifesto. So the goals and tactics will likely persist to be feeding Gyfli, and Richarlison in the hope one of them can muster a goal from somewhere, we seem to be able score from set pieces and that will likely continue until we manage to secure a striker whos bloodlust is scoring goals, not running down wings.
Everton will likely continue to madden us, which version will turn up this weekend? If schizophrenic Everton continue to ruin my weekends, i am contemplating supporting Marine FC where i can continue to have low expectations but a complete lack of investment in the results.
Everton, do these please. We need to start collecting points, we also need to start passing the ball to each other, and if you lot can manager it – score a goal or two.
I don’t like predictions because i’m terrible at it, but Everton are grim, and so are they so, 1-1. | <urn:uuid:3bc04318-4891-4754-8124-1216a4a69818> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://comeonyoublues.com/everton-vs-afc-bournemouth-sunday-january-13th-1415ko/ | 2022-01-19T04:13:55Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320301263.50/warc/CC-MAIN-20220119033421-20220119063421-00158.warc.gz | en | 0.966882 | 862 |
Hedge funds have been a popular concept for investors who believe they do not have to take certain risks to get returns from their investments. Crypto Hedge funds began gaining traction back in 2018 following the great Bitcoin surge of 2017 when the price on one Bitcoin was worth $20000.
Back then, more and more people began realizing the potential within digital assets and sought ways to invest their funds. With the volatile nature of cryptocurrencies, hedge funds became a safer alternative.
Henri Arslanian, PWC partner, and global crypto leader explained:
“The volatility of crypto markets offers many opportunities for quant traders … The performance of crypto quant funds tends to be more linked with market volatility rather than market performance. I expect the crypto hedge fund industry to grow significantly over the coming years as investing in a crypto fund may be the easiest and most familiar entry point for many institutional investors looking at entering this space.”
In simple terms, Hedge funds different ways for a risk-aversive person to invest in a large group of underlying securities. These hedge funds are usually managed by teams of expert investors. Being re-balanced on occasion and endlessly analyzed. Investors receive profits from these experts’ market maneuvers.
Currently, there are two kinds of crypto hedge funds. The first type manages portfolios exclusive for cryptocurrency. The second type has added some cryptocurrency to a mix of other asset types.
The Cryptocurrency hedge funds’ assets under management have been increasing significantly. It has been Rising from US$21.9 million in 2018 to US$44 million in 2019. The median Assets under management (AuM) increased from US$4.3 million to US$8.2 million.
The annual PwC–Elwood Crypto Hedge Fund Report entitled “2020 Crypto Hedge Fund Report,” shows that the most common crypto hedge fund strategy is quantitative. It has taken up 48% of funds, followed by discretionary long-only 19%, discretionary long/short 17%, and multi-strategy 17%.
The report noted that there are around 150 active crypto hedge funds as of the first quarter of 2020. The report reads in part:
“Our Q1 2020 research shows that there are around 150 active crypto hedge funds. Almost two-thirds of these (63%) were launched in 2018 or 2019.”
Reportedly, 97% of hedge funds surveyed traded BTC, 67% traded Ethereum (ETH), and 38% traded Ripple (XRP), Litecoin (LTC) 38% while EOS 25%.
There has been a remarkable increase in crypto hedge funds using independent custodians in 2019. The percentage rose from 52% to 81%. Also, an 86% increase for those that used an independent fund administrator. About 90% of these hedge fund investors were either family offices (48%) or high-net-worth individuals who amounted to 42%. A small percentage of respondents were foundations, endowments, venture-capital funds, or funds-of-funds, but none cited pension funds.
Also, cryptocurrency hedge funds tend to be domiciled in the same jurisdictions as traditional hedge funds. About 42% of the crypto hedge funds are in the Cayman Islands, 38% in the United States (U.S.), and 85 in the British Virgin Islands.
Some Not So Lucky
While the industry continues to grow, some crypto hedge funds had to close shop. This is after losing funds during the recent Bitcoin bloodbath. Neutral Capital, a hedge fund, had to close shop after it lost half of its money. As of 2019, the hedge fund reportedly managed over$13 million.
Vlad Matveev, a 50-year-old Muscovite, is among the many investors who have lost their funds following a crypto hedge fund’s downfall. According to reports, Matveev invested $250,000 in 2019 with California-based Cryptolab Capital. The hedge fund targeted double-digit gains from trading crypto regardless of whether the market rose or fell.
This year, Matveev noted that his investment fell 98.5 percent in value following the coronavirus-induced turmoil. He explained:
“I don’t really know what happened. They said they had a diversified set of strategies.”
Another, Cambria Capital, also shut its crypto-focused fund of funds after the March sell-off. In March, the 39% dip of Bitcoin prices caught many by surprise, leading to large losses, particularly among those running high levels of risks. | <urn:uuid:4ce66f6c-18d7-4744-b3f1-43f0c2ef9779> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://crypto.co/news/crypto-hedge-funds-a-fast-growing-trend-for-investors/ | 2022-01-19T05:24:21Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320301263.50/warc/CC-MAIN-20220119033421-20220119063421-00158.warc.gz | en | 0.956769 | 927 |

Today, the European Court of Justice stated that EU energy companies will no longer be allowed to sue EU governments using the Energy Charter Treaty – throwing into doubt a number of ongoing billion-euro arbitrations.
As part of a ruling on the legality of a dispute between Moldova and Komstroy Investment, the European Court of Justice declared that Investor-State Dispute Settlement (ISDS) cases using the Energy Charter Treaty are “not applicable” within the EU – i.e. between an investor in the EU and an EU member state. Specifically, article 26 of the Energy Charter Treaty (ECT), which allows for so-called corporate court arbitrations, is not valid intra-EU.
Exit the ECT
Friends of the Earth Europe calls on the European Commission and EU member states to withdraw from the ECT.
Paul de Clerck, economic justice coordinator at Friends of the Earth Europe hailed the ruling:
“The climate crisis cannot afford billion-euro corporate compensation claims every time our governments take a climate action decision. It’s good news that today the European Court of Justice recognises that such investment protection within the EU based on the Energy Charter Treaty is not in line with EU law. This underlines once again that the EU and its member states must leave the climate killer Energy Charter Treaty, which mainly serves to protect fossil fuel interests.”
Fossil fuel protection treaty
The ECT is a treaty from the 1990s that protects the interests of energy investors – mainly fossil fuel companies. It is increasingly being used by investors to challenge governments that introduce ambitious climate policies, and campaigners accuse it of undermining the Paris Agreement and the European Green Deal.
The European Court of Justice decided in 2018, in the Achmea ruling, that ISDS in intra-EU Bilateral Investment Treaties is not compatible with EU law. Now the ECJ extends that to intra-EU ISDS cases based on the ECT.
In recent years, the Energy Charter Treaty has become the source of the majority of ISDS cases in Europe – such as billion euro claims of RWE and Uniper against the Dutch government.
Negotiations to revise the ECT are ongoing since 2019 but have so far not resulted in any concrete steps to bring it in line with the EU’s climate ambitions or the Paris Agreement. The reforms also do not address the problems with the ISDS model that the ECJ referred to in its decision today. Several countries, such as France and Spain, are critical of the ECT and have asked the European Commission to prepare an exit strategy. | <urn:uuid:e907a62e-1656-49e2-b71a-a74d35ef9a36> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://friendsoftheearth.eu/press-release/ecj-drastically-limits-energy-charter-treaty/ | 2022-01-19T04:27:10Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320301263.50/warc/CC-MAIN-20220119033421-20220119063421-00158.warc.gz | en | 0.942606 | 528 |

Over m s from pornography sites and sex hookup service reportedly leaked as Friend Finder Networks suffers second hack in just over a year.
This site is all about sex, clearly
Adult dating and pornography site company Friend Finder Networks has been hacked, exposing the private details of more than m s and making it one of the largest data breaches ever recorded, according to monitoring firm Leaked Source. The attack, which took place in October, resulted in addresses, passwords, dates of last visits, browser information, IP addresses and site membership status across sites run by Friend Finder Networks being exposed.
It dwarfs the 33m user s compromised in the hack of adultery site Ashley Madison and only the Yahoo attack of was larger with at least m s compromised. It also runs live sex camera site Cams. While a of these claims proved to be false extortion attempts, we did identify and fix a vulnerability that was related to the ability to access source code through an injection vulnerability.
Ballou also said that Friend Finder Networks brought in outside help to investigate the hack and would update customers as the investigation continued, but would not confirm the data breach. Neither method is considered secure by any stretch of the imagination. The hashed passwords seem to have been altered to be all in lowercase, rather than case specific as entered by the users originally, which makes them easier to break, but possibly less useful for malicious hackers, according to Leaked Source.
Among the leaked details were 78, US military addresses, 5, US government addresses and over 96m Hotmail s. The leaked database also included the details of what appear to be almost 16m deleted s, according to Leaked Source.
To complicate things further, Penthouse. It is unclear why Friend Finder Networks still had the database containing Penthouse.
It is also unclear who perpetrated the hack. This is not the first time Adult Friend Network has been hacked. In May the personal details of almost four million users were leaked by hackersincluding their details, s, dates of birth, post codes, sexual preferences and whether they were seeking extramarital affairs.
It appears to not only have been discovered once the stolen details were leaked online, but even details of users who believed they deleted their s have been stolen again. This article is more than 4 years old. Screenshot of Adult Friend Finder website.

DAY FIVE – THE RIDGEWAY
Sometimes when out walking, as in day five of walking the Ridgeway National Trail from Watlington to Princes Risborough, I just plod. This relatively short day held nothing particularly physically demanding and nothing mentally challenging. I had by now settled into an easy rhythm of walking each day and so I just put one foot in front of the other and moved ever along the trail for an easy twelve miles.
Beginning back at the White Mark Farm car park just outside Watlington I began strolling along the hedgelined way. The terrain underfoot was less chalky than earlier days making the walking easier and it was a pleasure to hear bird song and see wildflowers along the way.
THE MODERN WORLD INTRUDES ON THE RIDGEWAY TRAIL
The Ridgeway begins to rise here for a long time but at a very slow pace and the hedges begin to be replaced by beech trees. Whilst still hearing the birdsong I also noticed a gentle hum in the background, gradually increasing the further East I travelled. Eventually the reason for the hum became apparent as I approached the M40 motorway. The absolute sense of isolation which I had felt in the early days of my experience of walking the Ridgeway National Trail had now disappeared and the “modern” world intruded on my trudging so much more. I crossed the motorway by tunnel and skirted round the Aston Rowant Nature Reserve. After crossing a further major road, the A40, things quietened down a bit for a mile or so until a rhythmic thumping noise could be heard ahead of me. The further on I walked the louder the sound got. It was the heavy bass beat of dance music and the further on I travelled the more the noise increased. it got until I expected any minute to turn the corner and find myself in the middle of a music festival. I love all types of music and attend lots of concerts but the bass sound was so overwhelming that it was becoming physically painful. All I could see from my map was that I was passing to the right of the Chalk Quarries just outside Chinnor. I never did find out what the source of the music was and I didn’t pass anyone at all near here to ask.
Once I had left the noise behind, the track entered woodlands and gently rose along the lower slopes of Bledlow Ridge. Again I felt less sense of isolation on this part of the trail. A passed a couple of cottages and occasional garden plants began to appear alongside the path.
I also passed the occasional other walker, cyclist or horserider…………
…………….. and train. (The recently renovated Chinnor and Princes Risborough steam railway runs along a restored line close to this part of the Ridgeway). I spied one form of horse powered transport nonchalantly ignoring a steam powered one!
A REWARD AT JOURNEY’S END
The Ridgeway continues for several more miles along hedgerows and through woodlands before descending and crossing the mainline modern railway line. Although the trail is still mainly rural on this part of the Ridgeway one is frequently reminded of the intrusion of modern man on the landscape and upon reaching the noisy A4010 just outside Princess Risborough I longed for the seclusion of just a few days ago. I had to walk alongside the road for only a few hundred yards but I found it quite painful to be jolted right back to modern reality. I then returned to footpaths and skirted the town. This day’s walk ended with a long climb up to the top of Whiteleaf Cross. After a day of “plodding” with a general background resentment about the intrusion of other things and people upon my peace the climb to the top of the hill was the highlight of the day. Half way up I got talking to a chap who was doing his daily count of butterflies on the wild flowers; there was a stone age long barrow to the left of me and the views were stunning. I could look right back over the last couple of days of my walking and if I tried really hard, even see Didcot Power Station (which I thought I had long left behind!) in the distance.
The lovely T was waiting for me in the car park at the top of the hill with supplies of chocolate and I returned home to get a good night’s sleep ready to walk day six of the Ridgeway.

Louisiana Tech opened the new J.C. Love Field at Pat Patterson Park last weekend with a three-game series sweep over Southern.
This time around, the Diamond ‘Dogs will open the new Love Shack in style as fans will be allowed into the facility to watch for the first time.
LA Tech (4-3) starts the three-game series against in-state foe McNeese State this evening at 6 o’clock. Saturday’s game will start at 2 p.m. while Sunday’s contest has the first pitch set at 1.
The team went 3-0 at home against the Jaguars, outscoring them 26-7. However, the Bulldogs had another midweek setback as they fell at UL-Lafayette for a second time this season. They left 10 runners on base in the 7-2 loss to the Ragin’ Cajuns.
Bulldog slugger Philip Matulia leads Conference USA in batting average (.500) and on-base percentage (.545). Matulia has tallied a base hit in four straight games, going 7-for-11 in the park’s opening weekend in late February.
Preseason All-American Parker Bates is right behind Matulia, batting .414 with a team-high 12 hits, four of which have been doubles. Cole McConnell and Adarius Myers are two more Bulldogs currently batting .400 or better through seven games this season.
The weekend rotation is set to feature Jonathan Fincher (Friday), Ryan Jennings (Saturday) and Jarret Whorff (Sunday). All three have a victory under their belt and have combined for 31 strikeouts and just eight walks.
McNeese State (5-3) carries a five-game winning streak into Ruston. The Cowboys are coming off a 4-3 win over UL-Lafayette in Lake Charles this past Wednesday, which capped a 5-0 home stand.
Leading the Cowboys at the plate has been Clayton Rasbeary, the reigning Southland Conference Hitter of the Week. The right fielder currently leads the team and the SLC with a .548 batting average and has hit safely in all eight games this season, including five multi-hit performances.
McNeese’s Will Dion, this week’s National Pitcher of the Week by multiple publications (19 strikeouts in a win last week), will take the mound for Friday followed by Ty Abraham on Saturday and Christian Vega on Sunday.
LA Tech has won five of its past six games versus McNeese State, winning four straight from 2017-19.
All three games can be seen online at CUSA.tv (subscription required). Fans can also listen to the Voice of the Bulldogs Dave Nitz call the action on the LA Tech Sports Network.

At its worst it was like constant pain, just constant aching, you couldn’t get away from it. It was just hurting to walk even. It limited my ability to work all day long. My feet hurt so bad that I could work maybe an hour or two, but then I’d have to sit a little while to let my feet rest. At night it was constant pain. I wasn’t getting great sleep. I tried Tylenol and those sort of things to see if that would help but nothing really did. I found out about Multicare from a friend of mine. He said that you guys were top notch and I should check you out. The staff, everyone, treated me great. They would engage in conversation and seemed to care about my well-being, my life and what’s happening. I am 100% better than what I was! It’s amazing! Going through the therapy process you still have a little bit of pain, and maybe physical therapy is a little tough on you. But you can really feel things progressing and now I get along great! I have no pain in my feet. I can work however long I want to and have no issues. I would just encourage anybody that if you have pain in your…..it really doesn’t matter where it’s at. I really strongly believe that Multicare can get that fixed. You don’t have to live with the pain. You don’t have to be a tough guy and try and tough it out. You can just walk in and, man, you won’t believe how much better you’ll feel when it’s all done.
The pain in my heels was very, very painful for me. I’m a walker. I just couldn’t do it anymore. Just to stand was really painful. I tried a LOT of things! I had seen a podiatrist, that’s where I started, then I went to a chiropractor, and in the meantime I had seen my regular doctor and talked about it and did some therapy. I went between those people a lot – the three of them. And nothing worked. I had cortisone a shot from the podiatrist. It helped for a few days. But then he wouldn’t give me another one. And he had made plates twice for my shoes. And then it just killed my hip! It was like it made it worse. Well then he made different ones and that never worked for me. I read in the newspaper about Multicare. I cut out the ad and thought ‘I’m gonna call and see what they have to say’. I was real pleased with everybody. I thought Steve (Multicare physical therapist with a doctorate degree) in the therapy room was really good. And the girls (PT assistants) did a nice job too. I think that Steve had a good understanding way about him. And the girls have always been really pleasant in the office. It really has worked for me. And I still do my exercises pretty much every day. I went about 10 times to therapy and saw Dr. Sneller for adjustments. I have recommended treatment at Multicare to many, many people! I remember when I was first doing my therapy, there was an older lady - I have no idea what her name was - but she told me she could hardly walk. In fact she said ‘I had gone to the doctor out in the Dunes and they told me in a year I’ll be in a wheelchair’ and she said ‘I have to take care of my husband. I can’t do that’. And she stood up and said ‘Look at me walk now’. I have no idea who she was, but I thought man that is pretty good. I have been more than pleased and I am more than willing to recommend Multicare to anyone who will listen.
I'M NOW A BELIEVER!! I didn't think chiropractic could help my foot problems. But after meeting with Dr. Pistello and Dr. Steve for a few weeks, I'm feeling so much better!
I had a lot of pain in my heel and it’s feeling so much better, and I’m able to move around a lot better.
I got to a point where I just couldn't deal with my headaches anymore. I had never been to a chiropractor before, but I was desperate for relief. The team at Multicare figured out my issue and after physical therapy and adjustments for only a short while, I can say that I am free of headaches. Thanks so much to the excellent team at Multicare!! I am so very grateful!!
I came to Multicare for the first time with a horrible migraine and in one visit Dr. Joel wiped that migraine right out of my head.
Because of my consultation with the doctors at Multicare Health Clinic, I learned about my balance issues and how I can help myself. But I know Multicare will always be honest with me and always has my best interest at heart. Thanks Multicare!
I had a balance problem. Dr. Steve worked with me to strengthen my legs. I went from not being able to walk across the lawn without a cane to just like being freed again. And now I have no problems walking out on the lawn.
Dr. Sneller helped. I haven't been feeling dizzy anymore.
- Belinda B
I had dizziness especially when exercising. One treatment later and I was able to do a hard core workout without any problems. I recommend Multicare for any issues.
I’d been to the doctor several times and they couldn’t figure out what was wrong with me. On my first appointment, Dr. Sneller figured out what was wrong with my neck and we decided on a treatment plan. I'm feeling so much better! Thank you to the Multicare team.
I came in with a pinched disc the first time and I was in a lot of pain, and now it’s totally gone. Total relief. My second visit I was locked up between my neck and shoulders and that was causing me a lot of pain. And now that’s all gone, so I am very happy."
Being able to present my back pain to three different professions in one place and knowing that they are working together to make me better is very comforting.
We had a treatment set up for my lower back. Dr. Sneller gave me some stretching exercises for my lower back a week or so ago and I’ve been doing those faithfully three times a day. and I am feeling amazing, not feeling any pain. ……. I would recommend anyone come here and get checked out by Dr. Sneller.
After an accident at work I didn't think I'd ever get relief from my aching shoulder. But the doctors at Multicare gave me adjustments and physical therapy and now I feel normal again. What a relief!
Nothing could help me. Nothing could fix me. Dr. Scott – he fixed me. He is the best. He is the only one who could fix my back, and my shoulder. Thank you so much!
I'm so glad my sister referred me to Multicare! My elbow hasn't felt this good in a long time. Thanks to the great physical therapy team there!
I came to Multicare with numbness and tingling in my elbows and fingers. After one adjustment, five days later, I feel better. I would recommend Multicare to anyone.
Not only is my pain level down to zero, but what I'm really thrilled with, is that I have normal feeling in my hands!!
I came to Multicare for pain in the wrist and the arm and symptoms that I’ve had in lower back issues for years; now gone in three adjustments. So I am very pleased with my progress.
After my knee surgery I was asked where I wanted to do my physical therapy, I chose Multicare Health Clinic and I'm so glad I did! Dr. Steve and the therapy assistants (Sara and Megan) are fabulous! They know what they're doing and they all really seemed to care about my recovery. I'm feeling fantastic! I'll definitely go back again whenever I need therapy or adjustments.
I had leg pain for six months. After two adjustments I can walk and I feel so much better thanks to Multicare!
I leave here feeling confident that I have the resources to manage my pain and live normally, and that's priceless.
I can’t say enough about the staff and Dr. Sneller. He has the biggest heart; really cares about his patients.
Without question, I would recommend this care unit – they are thorough, caring, professional and you know up front what the costs are, plus several options of care were presented to me from which I chose the one that worked best for me.
Multicare has been great for me! I just needed a tune up to get me back up to being 100%. They have been so good to me. I would recommend it to anyone who’s trying to get and stay healthy.
At night my right hand would go painfully numb at least 2-3 times where I could not sleep. Now, I don't have that pain and can get a full night sleep thanks to Multicare.
As a result of my treatment, the numbness, tingling and soreness began to gradually and consistently decrease. Now, at the completion of my treatment program, I have none of the original symptoms that brought me to the clinic.
I wasn't able to use my hand the way I should. After working with Dr. Sneller and the physical therapy team, I can use my hand again.
I was disabled three years ago from a stroke having left-side paralysis. My left side works better now because of Dr. Sneller at Multicare.
Several months have passed and I have less pain and more energy than I’ve had in a long while. I feel young again and find it difficult to “act my age” so most of the time – I don’t!
I didn't think anything could be done for my fibromyalgia pain. But the doctors at Multicare have proven that some pain management is possible. I'm very grateful.
My company encouraged all of us employees to get screened at Multicare. I didn't know what to expect. It was easy and I learned so much. The orthotics they prescribed really help me to feel more stable and confident at work.
I had a foot scan done recently. It's amazing what I learned about my feet and how they bear my weight. I purchased the orthotics that were recommended and it truly is amazing how much of a difference they make. I don't go anywhere without my orthotics in my shoes! They have really relieved my pain.
There couldn't be a better physical therapy team in Siouxland! Not only did my knee feel so much better after six weeks, but I feel like I made new friends.
The physical therapy staff is nothing less than AWESOME!
I tried ice and heat at home before coming and it did not work for very long. Once I came here and started therapy I learned how to reduce any aches or pains. I can do everything that I used to be able to do years ago and feel much better now.
I'm a runner. When I wasn't able to run due to leg problems, I was devastated. But a consultation at Multicare identified the problem and after some adjustments, stimulation treatments and therapy, I'm running again!
I am running better (and faster) without pain and competing against athletes 20 years younger than myself. I give some of that credit to Multicare.

Traditional airport travel ecommerce is broken: slow booking processes, lack of choice, high margins, and poor user journeys. Ultimately this experience reduces the desire to book with, or on airport websites.
Airports need to give customers the freedom and choice to compare and find the cheapest price. Travel commerce is everywhere, and your airport should be everywhere too. Our airport marketplace platform is a new store-front sales channel that can reach customers everywhere they search for travel, today and tomorrow. | <urn:uuid:6084e30e-fd45-4b5a-beb8-dc2f2b47696a> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://peroley.com/ | 2022-01-19T05:32:17Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320301263.50/warc/CC-MAIN-20220119033421-20220119063421-00158.warc.gz | en | 0.93643 | 97 |
by Milena Rampoldi, ProMosaik e.V.
A wonderful interview about a matter which is brand-new
|Born in Kyoto, Japan, lives in Zurich.
She has been working with calligraphy
and painting (Nihonga) since childhood, and has taught
calligraphy in Japan, USA,
and is presently teaching in Zurich. Numerous exhibitions
inside and outside of Japan.
Her goal in art is to achieve a unity of calligraphy
and Nihonga painting.
for ProMosaik e.V. It concerns Japanese calligraphy. We would like to thank the calligrapher Chikako Fukami-Thomsen for her time, and her excellent explanations of this so great art. To see more, visit Chikako’s website: http://www.japanese-calligraphy.net/ – Calligraphy, the key to express Japanese culture, thoughts put into ink.
Milena Rampoldi: How did you find your way to Japanese calligraphy?
Chikako Fukami-Thomsen: It was my mother’s dream that I should excel in calligraphy. Since we have had generations of calligraphy masters in my family, she decided that I must also follow in this tradition. So, as soon as I started to recognize words, I was sent to a local calligraphy teacher on a regular basis. At the age of five, I could already wield the brush. And when I entered elementary school, she made me a student under a well-known calligrapher, Fukada Hōsen, a member of the close circle of disciples around Hibino Gohō (1901 – 1975) and, by the way, the only female disciple of Gohō. Hibino Gohō is one of the most important Japanese calligraphers of this century, and he actively promoted the use and research of Japanese-style classical kana calligraphy. My apprenticeship under Fukada sensei changed my life and I have been learning from her for over forty years. | <urn:uuid:318fa699-6388-4351-84fc-6f8a95af3bca> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://promosaik.org/japanese-calligraphy-an-interview-with-chikako-fukami-thomsen/ | 2022-01-19T05:26:34Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320301263.50/warc/CC-MAIN-20220119033421-20220119063421-00158.warc.gz | en | 0.960967 | 441 |
I was lucky.
I fell in love with reading from my perch on my mama’s lap long before I was enrolled in school.
Then I caught the word fever on my own, and devoured book after book, determined to read everything. My third grade teacher had to shoo me out of the library to the playground during recess. And to this day, most of my possessions are made of paper and print.
But for some kids finding the road to reading takes more time.
And it’s fine to let children develop reading skills at different paces. Yet if they hit third grade and are still struggling with literacy, that’s a red flag. Because research shows that this benchmark is a determining point in educational success.
This is where SMART volunteers step in to help.
SMART is an acronym for Start Making A Reader Today, and it’s premise is simple: Pair two adult volunteers with kids who need reading support. The goal is to support children’s literary efforts and model good reading habits for a seven month period.
The SMART program, founded in 1992, also seeks to complement reading curriculum already embedded in schools. This means educators can aid children who need extra reading help by matching them with a SMART volunteer.
And the data indicates that the one-on-one mentorship of SMART volunteers pays off in a big way. Fifth graders who participated in SMART are 60 percent more likely to reach state reading benchmarks than are similar students who didn’t, according to an independent study by the Eugene Research Institute.
This week we’re featuring SMART as part of our award-winning Community Voices series. The podcast, featuring interview sessions with members of the organization, are below.

Intentional psychology, accidental biography: using a post hoc lens of biography to view the development of a psychological theory of learning and evolution during simultaneous life transitions of becoming a mother and recovering from heroin addiction.
Christie, S. 2013. Intentional psychology, accidental biography: using a post hoc lens of biography to view the development of a psychological theory of learning and evolution during simultaneous life transitions of becoming a mother and recovering from heroin addiction.
This paper concerns a review of a piece of qualitative psychological research with a view to identifying to what extent biographical methods were unintentionally employed and ultimately whether the worth of the research is elevated or lessened by this disciplinary blending. At the time I felt I had successfully given these marginalized, demonized women a voice and that they had used this voice to clearly articulate their needs, fears, hopes and desires. And yet, through my newly discovered lens of biography, I ask myself if some ‘truth’ in the women’s stories may have been blurred by the rigours of methodological control or a restrictive structure of psychologically-informed theory development. I want to argue this is not the case. Instead, I believe my research is fortified by the synergy of psychology and biography and, for that matter, the many other disciplines it dips its toe into. A marriage of idealism and pragmatics, the outcome is a theory which represents a version of the participants’ biographies, gives the women a voice they had not previously had but which is furthermore enhanced by a practical utility conferred by its interdisciplinary nature.

The Jack J Hutchinson Band has announced its Bootleg Series – a new collection of live recordings and special performances that will provide fans with exclusive digital content during 2020.
Volume 1 of Bootleg Series features a 12 song set recorded during this month’s Who Feeds The Wolf? tour at Esquires, Bedford.
Hutchinson said: “As the world comes to terms with the impact of coronavirus, we need to make sure there is still some positivity.
“Music can provide that. The band were absolutely cooking on the current tour, and fortunately we captured a lot of it.”
Hutchinson has been forced to postpone the remaining dates on his UK tour, but added: “This is a great substitute.
“We will be releasing the live album at 9pm on Friday March 20 – which would have been the time we hit the stage.
“We will be doing a live ‘listening party’ on our Facebook page so fans can socialise at the same time and chat about the music – pretty much as we would be doing at a gig.
“So grab a beer (or brew) and let’s have some fun!”
Explaining the impact of the coronavirus on the band, he added: “We are very fortunate in that we had made it through 10 shows out of 13 on this leg of the tour but the impact will still be felt.
“We are delaying the second leg of the tour to October but that could still mean six months without income for the band.
“But everyone’s health is the priority – the band’s and that of our fans – and hopefully this new Bootleg Series will help.”
In addition to the Bootleg Series, Jack J Hutchinson Band TV has launched on YouTube.
The channel will feature exclusive video content, including live performances, intimate acoustic sets, behind the scenes footage of the band on tour and interviews.
The first video to be posted is an acoustic version of Justified, taken from the new album Who Feeds The Wolf? and a track that featured on Rushonrock Record of the Week New Wave Of Rock N Roll.
Hutchinson added: “In the current situation a lot of my fans could potentially become quite isolated.
“Thankfully we now have the technology to remain social and engaged. Music is a powerful tool…and it will help us beat this fucking thing!”
PRE-ORDER ‘BOOTLEG SERIES: VOL 1’ HERE
TUNE IN TO THE LISTENING PARTY ON FACEBOOK AT 9PM ON FRIDAY 20 MARCH | <urn:uuid:a8727e7b-7812-4d3a-a263-e21325fe20fc> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://rushonrock.com/2020/03/18/jack-j-hutchinson-bootleg-series-volume-one-release-2020/ | 2022-01-19T05:41:44Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320301263.50/warc/CC-MAIN-20220119033421-20220119063421-00158.warc.gz | en | 0.947695 | 558 |
Our show in Oldenburg was perhaps one of the most special shows of the tour. Our friend Tiedo, who usually books us at the Alhambra, put us on at the wagonburg where he lives. A wagonburg is a very special and unique place. I was told that there are several throughout Germany and some especially famous ones around Hamburg. Basically, it’s an area where people choose to live in old trailers, train cars, and buses. They install wood burning stoves and all share a communal toilet, bath, and various spaces that include a kitchen and performance space. The structures are created mostly out of recycled materials. The bar in this performace space is an old bus and the space is heated by wood burning stoves. It was fun to be playing a venue with a dirt floor. Felt kind of like the circus. We had some of the best sound of the whole tour at this place by the way.
In Hannover we had an amazing pumpkin curry by an cool lady for whom we dedicated the song Dinner to later in the evening. We also got a nice tour of by the very sweet promoter Karsten. After the show, I like these creepy lamp posts that looks like crosses just outside of the venue. Here is a link from the Hannover show to a live performance of Lucky Rocks: http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?v=3319446883306
Our next show in Hamburg was so intense that I neglected to get any photos which is a shame because Hamburg is a very exciting city. In stark contrast to how intense Hamburg was I will give you this photo of our driver, Andy, sleeping with a Club Mate next to him.
The show in Offenbach was with our good friend Alex’s band called Mine from Darmstadt. Last time we played with Mine they were a rock band but they have revamped their style and are much more difficult to describe now. I think it’s cool. You can hear for yourself HERE! We also got to see our good friend The Woog Riots from Darmstadt. They just came out with a new album recently called Post Bomb Chronicles. I’m quite addicted the first song on this album.
After a very long drive we played our first of 2 shows in France in Nantes, with the wonderful Lonesome French Cowboy. These guys were great and their look would fit right in at any truckstop in the midwest.
It was great to see our old friends Rhiem and Solena in Nantes. Solena did an internship with Olive Juice Music in NYC many years ago and is responsible for entering a lot of the artist data on the site. After the show in Nantes a nice chap by the name of Richard O’Brien interviewed us for a local podcast called English For Everyone. Luckily, the next morning, there was enough time to check out our favorite boulangerie for for petit Dejuner. This is what a happy Nan looks like.
Next stop Paris! It was back at the Pop In for us. On the way, something possesed me to try these funky chips. Unfortunately, unless you’re a big fan of synthetic Ketchup flavor I wouldn’t reccommend them After the show in Paris we stayed with our friend Guillaume from the band Coming Soon. This is a pic of him with his girfriend’s daughter. She was pretty adorable and quite impressed with Nan’s shoeless drumming technique.
And this is where we say goodbye to freinds Klaus and Andy who had been driving and helping us. Below is a pic of our good friend and bassist extrodrdinaire Klaus displaying his broken-mirror-covered bass. Thank you Klaus for letting us use your car. And thanks to our new friend Andy for driving the last half of the tour. They are both nice boys from Regensburg, Germany, a town with a very kick ass music scene. Check out these bands for great examples: Jenny Lund, Containerhead, Trashing Days, Mason Dixon Line, Tar Tar Fox. Next stop a quick little train ride under the English channel to London for the UK leg of the tour.

Evicting unwanted tenants can be a costly and laborious process, but landlords who give in to the temptation to take unlawful shortcuts risk being hit hard in the pocket. That was certainly so in a case concerning an evangelical church that was unceremoniously excluded from its premises without a court order.
The property occupied by the church as a place of worship was in an area that had been earmarked for a major regeneration project. It had been in residence for about 10 years when its landlord’s agents took possession of the property. The church took action and swiftly obtained an emergency injunction restoring it to possession. It subsequently launched proceedings against the landlord seeking, amongst other things, damages for unlawful eviction.
In upholding the church’s claim, a judge found that it was a tenant of the property, as opposed to a licensee. Its tenancy was for business purposes and was protected under Part II of the Landlord and Tenant Act 1954. It was therefore entitled to remain in possession of the property until such time as the tenancy was lawfully determined.
The judge had no doubt that, in proceeding with the unlawful eviction, the landlord and its agents took a calculated risk with a view to avoiding the time and expense of court proceedings. The landlord also wanted to avoid spending more management time on further attempts to negotiate the termination of the church’s lease.
Those who carried out the eviction were not regulated bailiffs or enforcement officers and the landlord was at least in part motivated by profit. It was aware that the church had been in occupation for some years and that the eviction was likely to be particularly sensitive given the property’s use as a place of worship.
The judge noted that the landlord was not without mitigation: amongst other things, the church had not produced a document confirming its status as a tenant prior to the eviction. The landlord had also, without success, offered the church a short-term lease of the property. The church’s claim that the landlord’s agents had taken a substantial sum of money from the premises was rejected.
The landlord was nevertheless ordered to pay the church a total of £8,600 in damages, including £6,250 in exemplary damages. It was also ordered to pay, on the punitive indemnity basis, the legal costs incurred by the church in recovering possession of the property.

Singapore CSA looks back at 2017's most rampant cyber threats
FYI, this story is more than a year old
The Cyber Security Agency of Singapore (CSA) has published a report of the biggest cyber threats the country experienced in 2017, with a notable shift from profit-motivated attacks to attacks designed to cause disruption.
The Singapore Cyber Landscape 2017 report shows that cyber threats continued to grow in frequency and in damage on a global scale – and Singapore statistics mirrored the trends.
“Given Singapore’s connectivity, what happens globally is often immediately felt here. As we continue our Smart Nation push, we have to raise our cyber hygiene and defences, especially against cyber-attackers who are getting better resourced and skilled,” Comments CSA chief David Koh.
“We need to play our part by being vigilant and adopting good cybersecurity practices to keep Singapore’s cyberspace safe and trustworthy for all.”
The CSA’s Cybersecurity Act, in addition to partnerships with GoSafeOnline, SingCERT and others, are designed to protect and raise awareness about cybersecurity issues.
According to the Singapore Police Force, Singaporeans reported 5,430 cases of cybercrime. While overall crime rates fell, cybercrime cases grew to 16.6% of all cases.
Many cases involved online cheating, compromised social media and SingPass accounts, impersonation, scams, and unauthorised access. In September 2017, Singapore also dealt convictions in its first Dark Web-related crime case.
Singapore’s critical information infrastructure (CII) sectors remain prime targets, with banking, finance and government at the top. This became a reality for one Singapore insurance company in September 2017, when a data breach compromised = the personal data of 5,400 customers, including their e-mail addresses, mobile numbers and dates of birth.
Singapore’s business ecosystem, in particular SMEs, are especially vulnerable to attacks as they don’t have the resources or skills to deal with cyber threats.
The report says that of the 146 cases reported to SingCERT last year, almost 40% involved SMEs. CSA encourages businesses to invest in cybersecurity solutions.
Finally, phishing, ransomware and tech support scams continue to plague individuals.
Common cyber threats are detailed below.
- Website Defacements. 2,040 website defacements were observed in 2017. Many defacements were part of global mass defacement campaigns. The defaced websites belonged mostly to Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) from a range of sectors such as manufacturing, retail, and Information and Communications Technology (ICT).
- Phishing. 23,420 phishing URLs with a Singapore-link were found in 2017. Phishing emails are one of the simplest and most effective methods that hackers use to steal sensitive personal data (e.g. passwords, contact information, credit card details), by tricking users into opening dubious links or attachments. The websites of technology companies such as Apple and Microsoft were commonly spoofed, making up about 40 per cent of the observed phishing
- Compromised Systems. In 2017, CSA observed about 750 unique Command & Control (C&C) servers in Singapore, and a daily average of about 2,700 botnet drones with Singapore IP addresses. Of the more than 400 malware variants detected in 2017, five were observed to have caused the majority of the infections. Conficker, Mirai, Cutwail, Sality, and WannaCry accounted for more than half of the systems infected daily. The majority of these malware are not new, suggesting that many victims are not scanning for viruses and cleaning up their systems.
- Ransomware. Singapore was relatively unscathed by major ransomware campaigns such as WannaCry. 25 cases of ransomware were reported to SingCERT in 2017. Besides WannaCry, victims were infected by ransomware such as Cerber, Dharma, and Sage, and faced ransom demands ranging between S$2,000 and S$4,000. | <urn:uuid:f9263338-1963-4969-917c-39b2ea7ca555> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://securitybrief.asia/story/singapore-csa-looks-back-2017s-most-rampant-cyber-threats | 2022-01-19T04:39:24Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320301263.50/warc/CC-MAIN-20220119033421-20220119063421-00158.warc.gz | en | 0.951766 | 831 |
The Soulful Labyrinth
A labyrinth is a patterned path, often circular in form, used as a walking
meditation or spiritual practice. A labyrinth's walkway is arranged in such a
way that the participant moves back and forth across the circular form through
a series of curves, ending at the labyrinths's heart or center.
The volunteer group knocked it out of the park with the installation of the labyrinth.
There are just a few more hours of work to finish it up and with the weather turning we are going to jump on it and finish it up.
As promised....In the spring once the final details are added and the grass has had a chance to grow back, we will have a wine and cheese labyrinth celebration.
Labyrinth Volunteers - Thank you!! | <urn:uuid:f71c0a54-c89c-4162-b377-475f99764d14> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://soulfulprairies.com/build-a-labyrinth/ | 2022-01-19T04:00:45Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320301263.50/warc/CC-MAIN-20220119033421-20220119063421-00158.warc.gz | en | 0.95146 | 159 |
‘Cause this guy has one. Check it out:
This penguin swims thousands of miles every year to visit the Brazilian man who saved his life. Joao Pereira de Souza found this Magellanic penguin crippled with oil-slicked feathers and close to death near his home. Joao cleaned him up and nursed him back to health. Now the penguin, dubbed JinJing, has adopted him.
“I love the penguin like it’s my own child and I believe the penguin loves me,” de Souza told Globo TV. “No one else is allowed to touch him. He pecks them if they do. He lays on my lap, lets me give him showers, allows me to feed him sardines and to pick him up.”
Although it’s not common, penguins do sometimes end up in Brazil after getting sent a little off course by currents. But I’m pretty sure this is the only one trying to replace dogs as man’s best friend. | <urn:uuid:6c7a668c-32c2-4d12-beb9-b8affdebb169> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://stephaniebeavers.com/2016/03/10/how-would-you-like-to-have-a-penguin-for-a-best-friend/ | 2022-01-19T04:43:40Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320301263.50/warc/CC-MAIN-20220119033421-20220119063421-00158.warc.gz | en | 0.971784 | 224 |

On Friday, March 20th we hosted a Divaland Variety Show curated by Raja Feather Kelly. In less than 8 hours we connected with 17 different performers, did sound checks, setup an Eventbrite and sold out a show that we hosted via Zoom. It started out a little rough but as the evening went along it was truly magically.
Thank You For Being a Part of Divaland’s Variety Show
As a result of your amazing support, we raised $1,000. All of the money will go directly to the performers. Most performing artists have been dealing with a complete shut down of income due to closed theaters and music venues. Shows that were in early stages of being crafted for premiers have either been scraped or postponed for 6 months to a year. Many of these artists were also laid off from their side hustles or day jobs with retail, bars and restaurants closed across the country indefinitely. The process we birthed with Raja and his husband Collin will become a platform for other arts organizations the longer we are in this Coronavirus crisis.

Thank you for being a big part of Divaland’s Variety Show
As you know Team Diva has long been a big supporter of the arts. We done it all – from hosting and creating Divas Take America, and Divas Take the Hill, to sponsoring drag shows like Bacon Strip, and supporting organizations like Velocity Dance Center. As we move through the Coronavirus Crisis we know that some artists will stop doing work, people will get sick, and many performers will have their current and future shows canceled. Divaland is made great by the diverse, creative, community of which we are a part. The money we raised was a small token towards our overall capacity to do good during this crisis.
What’s next? Look for more events like this one. We will get better. We will make this a venue to support as many artists as possible. Stay Well, Stay Healthy and Stay Home (for now) Divaland. | <urn:uuid:7869a45e-c032-408c-ab98-6caf80445fb6> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://teamdivarealestate.com/thank-you-to-all-of-the-supporters-of-divalands-variety-show/ | 2022-01-19T05:06:02Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320301263.50/warc/CC-MAIN-20220119033421-20220119063421-00158.warc.gz | en | 0.950698 | 1,869 |

Governor Lonyangapuo Presides over Peace Meeting at Chesto
Peace is a key component of sustainable development and no one should be allowed to reverse the gains made in stabilising neighbouring communities in West Pokot, Turkana and Elgeyo Marakwet.
In a joint peace meeting which brought together members of Pokot and Marakwet communities and their leadership at Chemsto, at the border of West Pokot and Elgeyo Marakwet counties, Governor Lonyangapuo urged the neighbouring communities to uphold the hard-earned peace. He added that the leadership of the two counties were working with political leaders to ensure that no more lives should be lost as a result of border skirmishes that dates back to pre-independence.
The meeting came barely a week after an alleged criminal, linked to the recent incidences of border insecurity, was gunned down and illegal firearms recovered.
He lauded members of the public for cooperating with the security agencies in unmasking the few individuals who have been fuelling violence along the border.
In attendance were Governor Alex Tolgos and his Deputy, MPs Peter Lochakapong (Sigor), David Pkosing (Pokot South), Kangogo Bowen (Marakwet East), County Commissioners and MCAs from both counties among others. | <urn:uuid:bc888a82-9443-4029-a633-88cd297fd475> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://westpokot.go.ke/governor-lonyangapuo-presides-over-peace-meeting-at-chesto | 2022-01-19T05:08:46Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320301263.50/warc/CC-MAIN-20220119033421-20220119063421-00158.warc.gz | en | 0.958158 | 269 |
Using operative models (ICF and CBR) within an interprofessional context to address community needs
Background. The use of conceptual frameworks has been advocated when implementing interprofessional initiatives.
Objective. To present the use of the International Classification of Functioning Disability and Health (ICF) and the community-based rehabilitation (CBR) matrix for identifying and addressing the health needs of the community.
Methods. The ICF care plan and the CBR matrix were used to conduct a retrospective document analysis. The documents were completed by interprofessional groups of students who were involved in an interprofessional community-based intervention. Data were captured on a sheet and analysed descriptively using the domains of the ICF and the CBR matrix. Ethical clearance was obtained from the University of the Western Cape, Cape Town, South Africa.
Results. A total of 30 senior nursing, physiotherapy and biokinetics students were divided into groups and interacted with five community-based groups. Each group of students completed one ICF care plan and one CBR matrix. The needs documented in the ICF care plans included impairments, activity limitations, participation restrictions and environmental challenges. Impairments included sensory, motor and psychological impairments, while activity limitations included limitations in activities of daily living and mobility. Limited social interaction and physical environment were identified as experienced environmental challenges. The interventions documented to address these needs included health promotion, prevention, medical care, skills development and facilitation of access to justice.
Conclusion. The ICF and CBR matrix can be used to facilitate students’ identification of the needs of communities and the implementation of interventions to address these needs in an interprofessional manner.

Bright Star Casino
5 free spins on Starburst at sign up + 10 free spins on Taco Brothers at 1st Deposit+ 15 free spins on Wild Toro at 2nd deposit
Although Bright Star Casino is a relative new comer (the site has been operational since 2017) it has the makings of a contender when it comes to players choosing where to wile away their time gaming and trying to win some money. They offer bonuses from the moment you register to on-going and seasonal promotional offers. Their boast that they offer all a gamer needs is not made lightly. The site is brought to us by Progress Play who have been around for a while, and naturally have plenty of experience under their belt…and this might rightly lead to the conclusion that they might know a thing or two about gaming. With a hive of activity from their selection of games, the live casino (included in the full mobile support), scratch cards, jackpots, sports betting…they do have their ducks lined up.
The Low Down
The games are furnished by the likes of NetEnt, Microgamming, NextGen…just to name a very few. The usual payment options of credit and debit cards, e-wallets and the likes are of course available. They offer a 100% welcome/first deposit bonus up to 200£…this is after the complimentary bonus which you are entitled to after your player account activation (choosing either bonus money or free spins) – sadly winnings are capped at £20 / €20 / $20 / 200kr when playing with the complimentary bonus, any winnings beyond this amount will be forfeited. Additionally, for players in some jurisdictions the deposit bonus can only be cashed out after an amount that is 100 times the deposit bonus (the list of affected players can be obtained by making an enquiry with their customer service).
Other bonuses on offer are the occasional free play bonuses which not unlike some of their other offers, you have the option of choosing either bonus money or spins. Not to be outdone the live casino too offers bonuses in the form of cash-backs. Bright Star Casino is running two promo codes: “10 BS” can be used on Butterfly Staxx and “20 AL” can be redeemed on the slot Aloha Cluster Pays. | <urn:uuid:3030ef5f-22ff-4577-b785-b258862fab4c> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://www.casinofreebieblog.com/bright-star-casino/ | 2022-01-19T04:11:19Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320301263.50/warc/CC-MAIN-20220119033421-20220119063421-00158.warc.gz | en | 0.963219 | 468 |

During its latest health inspection from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the Carnival Fantasy earned a failing grade. The Carnival Cruise Line ship received a score of 77 out of 100, falling 9 points short of the minimum passing score of 86.
Brown Water Discharged from Shower Lines
According to the July 2019 inspection, the Carnival Fantasy’s failing grade was due to a number of health violations, including “brown water” being discharged from two shower hoses and a shower in the medical area. The medical area shower was used at least twice a day, a crew member reported.
Multiple Violations at Food Stations
Additionally, inspectors found knives stored in warm, soiled water at food stations, an ice cream spoon stored in cold, soiled water, and one food station lacked adequate sneeze guards. At breakfast, one of the inspectors reported that the bagels and bread being served were swarming with small flies.
Issues with Illness Reporting Procedures
Other items on the report included a crew member with symptoms of acute gastroenteritis but did not report to the medical center in a timely manner. Further, the sick employee was never interviewed in an effort to uncover the source of the illness. Nor was the Fantasy able to present an updated fecal and vomit accident response procedure to the health inspector.
The Carnival Fantasy was one of several ships that failed the July 2019 inspection, this latest failing grade being the lowest in the cruise ship’s history. The second-lowest score occurred in 1990, when the Fantasy received 78 points out of 100.
Other cruise ships that failed included Royal Carribean’s Majesty of the Seas, which earned an 82 out of 100, and the MS Grand Classica from Bahamas Paradise, which earned an 81.
According to a Carnival representative, the cruise line intends to remedy the issues and undergo a subsequent inspection. The cruise line submitted a “Corrective Action Report” to the CDC following the inspection, and have added staff and taken corrective measures to ensure they will exceed the United States Public Health standards.
Health Problems to Watch for on Cruise Ships
When boarding a cruise ship, passengers expect to be pampered and entertained in a safe, healthy environment. When cruise lines fail to follow health and safety regulations, passengers may experience a surprise encounter with infections and other health concerns.
Because passengers are kept in close quarters for an extended period of time, unsanitary cruise ships tend to quickly become breeding grounds for germs and diseases. Some of the most common cruise ship health issues include:
Norovirus is a highly contagious food-bourne illness that can cause diarrhea and vomiting. The virus thrives in crowded spaces like cruise ships, often spreading when infected passengers touch infected surfaces or items — such as buffet counters or cutlery.
Already a highly contagious virus, the flu spreads even more rapidly in the close quarters on cruise ships. Cruise ship settings can facilitate the outbreak of influenza and other respiratory diseases among passengers through droplet spread and direct contact with infected objects and surfaces.
Because other areas of the world may be experiencing outbreaks that haven’t hit home yet, there is also a risk of encountering new, regional infections if your cruise ship visits such areas. In the past, ships visiting Europe have suffered chickenpox and rubella outbreaks, while passengers sailing around Africa have fallen ill to yellow fever.
Better known as “seasickness” when cruising, motion sickness is not an infectious disease, but a disturbance of the inner ear. It occurs when your brain receives conflicting messages about movement and your body, which can result in dizziness, nausea, and/or vomiting.
Motion sickness often occurs on cruise ships and boats, but you’re likely more familiar with its effects from riding motor vehicles, trains, and airplanes.
How to Keep from Getting Sick on Cruise Ships
Do not allow illness (or fear of illness) prevent you from enjoying your cruise. Although it may be impossible to eliminate the risk of sickness altogether, there are steps you can take to minimize you and your family’s chances of becoming ill on a cruise ship.
- Wash your hands often – especially after using the restroom, before eating, and after touching communal items like handrails, elevator buttons, and water fountains.
- Avoid high-risk foods, such as raw or undercooked shellfish and items that have been sitting out for a long time.
- Make sure your vaccinations are up-to-date, including your flu vaccine and any additional vaccines recommended for the region you are traveling to.
- Bring motion sickness medication and natural remedies – like ginger drops – to reduce seasickness symptoms.
With proper preparation and awareness, you can help ensure the only thing you carry home with you are souvenirs – not a tummy ache.
Of course, cruise ships also have a responsibility to keep their environment safe and clean, so you should consider pursuing legal action if you believe you fell ill after traveling in an unsanitary cruise ship.

At some point in your life you have probably experienced back pain of some nature. Back pain is the second most common reason for visits to the doctor’s office. So the big question is, what is back pain and what exactly do you do to handle it and – ahem – keep it off your back?
Stop The Pain In Your Spine From Holding You Back
The back is a complicated structure of bones, joints, ligaments, and muscles. You can sprain ligaments, strain muscles, rupture disks, and irritate joints, all of which can lead to back pain. While sports injuries or accidents can cause back pain, sometimes the simplest of movements, like picking up a pencil from the floor, can have painful results. In addition, arthritis, poor posture, obesity, and stress can cause or complicate back pain.
Back injuries are a part of everyday life, and the spine is quite good at dealing with these often “pulled” muscles. These very minor injuries usually heal within 1 or 2 days. Some pain, however, continues. Reasons may include stress, mood changes, bad diet, lack of exercise and even the fear of further injury that may prevent you from being active. In addition, sometimes a painful injury or disease changes the way the pain signals are sent through your body, and, even after the problem has gone away or is inactive, the pain signals are still being sent.
Chiropractic adjustments would then assist in restoring proper communication by relieving irritation or choking of nerves caused by misalignment of the spinal joints.
What Can You Do to Prevent Long-Term Back Pain?
In addition to any other measure a chiropractic adjustment will give you relief. Together we can also work on reversing negative conditions to actually improve the condition, rather than just relieve it. Your pain will often result from mechanical problems that I can address.
Many chiropractic patients with relatively long-lasting or recurring back pain feel improvement shortly after starting Chiropractic treatment.
Chiropractic spinal care is a safe and effective back pain treatment. It reduces pain, rapidly advances physical therapy, and requires very few passive forms of treatment, such as bed rest.
How Can You Prevent Back Pain?
- Don’t lift by bending over. Instead, bend your hips and knees and then squat to pick up the object. Keep your back straight, and hold the object close to your body.
- Don’t twist your body while lifting.
- Push, rather than pull, when you must move heavy objects.
- If you must sit for long periods, take frequent breaks and stretch.
- Wear flat shoes or shoes with low heels.

According to 1UP, the first details of The Sims 3 have been revealed in the US version of Games for Windows magazine.
Apparently you can expect a much bigger sandbox to play around in, one that's continually evolving. You'll be able to explore the local park and the rest of the town seamlessly and take part in activities outside your home - without having to buy any expansion packs.
It's goodbye to the bladder and sleep meters. Instead there's a new mood system designed to give you more freedom to explore without worrying about going to the toilet and so on. The character creation system has undergone a complete overhaul, although what this means exactly has yet to be revealed.
And that's it for now - but as reported yesterday, EA is expected to officially unveil The Sims 3 on 19th March. Check back then for some Simsy excitement here, too. | <urn:uuid:33cf57cf-ad25-42d0-8598-29935b27cd2d> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://www.eurogamer.net/articles/new-sims-3-details-emerge | 2022-01-19T05:53:36Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320301263.50/warc/CC-MAIN-20220119033421-20220119063421-00158.warc.gz | en | 0.968632 | 175 |
Keep your passwords safe in Linux with KeePassX
How many passwords do you have to remember? Or how many client passwords do you have to keep hidden away from prying eyes? If you have too many passwords to remember, I always find it best to store those passwords in some form of encrypted tool. Because of the amount of passwords I have to retain I always make sure I have a tool installed on every personal and/work machine I use. One of those tools is KeePassX.
KeePassX is a Linux only (for now) tool that doesn't just store passwords safely, it stores passwords, usernames, urls, attachments, and comments - all in one convenient, safe location. You can sort your entries in groups and even search KeePassX. In this article I will show you how to install and use KeePassX.
Installing KeePassX is simple. You can follow one of these methods:
- Open up your Add/Remove Software tool
- Search for "keepassx" (no quotes)
- Mark KeePassX for installation
- Click Apply to  install the tool
Or, to install via command line:
- Open up a terminal window.
- su to root (if you are not using a distro with sudo).
- Issue the command yum install keepassx (or sudo apt-get install keepassx).
That's it. The application is now installed. Now you are ready to use.
The first thing you have to do is open up the tool. You will find it in Applications > Accessories. When the tool opens you will find a very simple main window (see Figure 1).
In order to create a store for sensitive information you must first create a new database. To do this either click the New button (far left on the toolbar) or click File > New Database. When you do this you will be asked to set the master key for the database. You can either set a password or use a key file. If you opt for a key file you can either a GPG key file you already have, or you can use KeePassX to generate one for you.
If you want to use a gpg key file (and not a randomly generated one, you can use gpg like so, to extract a key:
gpg --export -a "USERNAME" > KEY_FILE
Where USERNAME is the name of the gpg user and KEY_FILE is the name of the file you want to generate.
Once you have your database created you can then begin to add groups and entries to it. This is quite simple. If this particular database is going to contain client information you might want to create a new group for clients. If you intend to only use one database to house all of your information you could always create two groups:
I would take this even further and add sub-groups to the Clients group, one sub-group for each client.
After you have your groups worked out you can then add entries to them. To add an entry all you need to do is click the Key icon or click Entries > Add New Entry. When the new window pops up you just need to enter the necessary information for the entry.
In the password section you can add a password (and even have it masked) or you can even have KeePassX generate a random password for you. To view the password just click the "eye" icon. The passwords generated by KeePassX are really strong (and impossible to memorize).
If you are using your own passwords, KeePassX will indicate to you how strong they are. For example, one password I use for a particular login was only 88 Bit. Maybe it's time for me to change that password? You can also set KeePassX to expire particular passwords...reminding you to change them so you are a safer users.
Once you have completed your entry, click the OK button and the entry will be stored. Complete the entire database and click File > Save Database and, if this is the first time you've saved this database, KeePassX will ask you to name the database file.
KeePassX has a lot of features you won't find in other tools of a similar function. Install this on all the machines you use, share the database file between them, and enjoy not having to strain your memory to remember all that trusted information.Advertisement | <urn:uuid:7a8668bc-b2c4-42be-9ad1-d75b61a38ec4> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://www.ghacks.net/2010/06/22/keep-your-passwords-safe-in-linux-with-keepassx/ | 2022-01-19T04:34:41Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320301263.50/warc/CC-MAIN-20220119033421-20220119063421-00158.warc.gz | en | 0.912766 | 930 |
After her make-up artist let the cat out of the bag on Instagram, Jennifer Lopez has confirmed that she is to debut a limited edition collection in partnership with global beauty brand Inglot Cosmetics.
The 70-piece strong color line, which launches April 26, is said to bring Lopez and Inglot’s shared vision of strong femininity to life and offer women diverse ways to express themselves through beauty. The singer is said to have worked closely with the brand on every aspect of the collection from the shade range and ad campaign to the packaging and product names, which are inspired by her career.
“The capsule collection we created with Inglot is filled with all my go-to products in my favorite colors. We have everything from mascara, lipsticks, eyelashes, blush, eye shadow and of course…bronzers,” said Lopez. “What I think is unique and exciting is our Freedom System Palette—which allows you to create your own personalized palette with the specific colors and products that you need. Now you no longer have to buy that 5-piece eyeshadow kit to get the one color you really want!”
“We could not have asked for a better partner than Jennifer. She is a true beauty visionary,” says Grzegorz Inglot, Vice President of US Operations for Inglot. “In addition to having great style, Jennifer is also quite a beauty expert herself. After years of working with the best in the business, she has unique insight into what women want as well as which products are necessary to create that beautiful glow that she made famous.” | <urn:uuid:8f63b40f-7e13-4f43-aae8-94a7f07e634d> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://www.globalcosmeticsnews.com/the-rumors-were-true-jlo-unveils-inglot-cosmetics-partnership/ | 2022-01-19T05:20:14Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320301263.50/warc/CC-MAIN-20220119033421-20220119063421-00158.warc.gz | en | 0.974434 | 340 |

If you are in need of a DOT Physical, you have come to the right place to make that happen!
Dr. Lisa R. Long has completed the accredited training for the National Registry of Certified Medical Examiners (NRCME), accredited by Providers of Approved Continuing Education (PACE), and has also passed the Federal program’s Medical Examiner’s testing in order to be listed as a “certified” DOT Medical Examiner on the National Registry, an online directory of certified medical examiners easily accessible to drivers, motor carriers, and the general public. She also is a member of TeamCME, and you may check out their website at TeamCME.com.
Dr. Long is committed to delivering quality DOT Physical examination service to drivers at a competitive & reasonable cost, and she also understands that driver’s time is valuable, so she works hard to offer “same day service” appointments or schedule drivers ASAP with limited wait time, although be prepared to set aside one hour in your schedule to complete the full DOT Physical process.
3-month DOT Physical certification re-evaluation = $50.00
DOT Physical (Monday thru Friday) = $105.00
Weekend DOT Physical (Saturday or Sunday) = $125.00 [Dr. Long offers Weekend DOT Physicals to drivers “only” if a driver absolutely has no way of obtaining a physical during her regular business hours of Monday thru Friday, as her office is normally closed during the weekend]
[IMPORTANT NOTE: As of 06/03/2018, Dr. Long will arrive at the office now “only” after a truck driver has contacted her by phone establishing that he/she has arrived at her office to be serviced for a DOT Physical. Unfortunately, this rule has had to be enforced due to Dr. Long having been inconvenienced by truck driver(s) who do not show up or who do not make a “courtesy call” to reschedule or cancel their weekend appointment prior to Dr. Long arriving at her office to service them.]
If you have any questions or concerns, or to make an appointment, contact Dr. Long @ (573) 760-1515.
What is the National Registry of Certified Medical Examiners? The National Registry of Certified Medical Examiners (National Registry) is a Federal program that establishes requirements for healthcare professionals that perform physical qualification examinations for truck and bus drivers. To become a certified medical examiner (ME) and be listed on the National Registry, healthcare professionals must complete training and testing on the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration’s (FMCSA) physical qualifications standards and guidelines. All healthcare professionals whose scope of practice authorizes them to perform physical examinations, as defined by the state in which they practice, and who intend to perform physical examinations and issue medical certificates for commercial motor vehicle (CMV) drivers must be certified and listed on FMCSA’s National Registry by May 21, 2014. | <urn:uuid:e42b1971-0545-48df-bd14-6835c86a9837> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://www.longchiropracticinc.com/services/dot-physicals/ | 2022-01-19T05:08:52Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320301263.50/warc/CC-MAIN-20220119033421-20220119063421-00158.warc.gz | en | 0.960502 | 624 |

Legendary Big Brother contestant Nikki Grahame has revealed that she was sectioned following a suicide attempt last year.
The 31-year-old reality star, who has battled with anorexia for most of her adult life, revealed that just before the incident she was eating 1,200 calories a day- 800 less than she should have been.
Revealing to Closer magazine that she didn’t intend on killing herself, Nikki admitted that she hit rock bottom after her Mother moved away.
She explained: “I took some sleeping tablets and kind of slept for about three days. Everyone was ringing me and, in the end, an ambulance was called and my door got knocked down.
“Throughout the years I managed to avoid being sectioned, but this time it was taken out of my hands.”
After she was rushed to hospital, her Father decided it was in her best interests to be sectioned.
Nikki is now on anti-depressants and admits that being sectioned saved her life.
The star has been open about her battles with anorexia in the past after the disease left her infertile and suffering from Osteoporosis.
Now on the road to recovery, Nikki has already put on a stone and is determined to beat the illness.
She said: “I think I’m about 6 and a half stone… I feel much more calm.”

We have covered the “10 Tips for Selecting the Right Video Streaming Platform” in our last blog and we’re happy you guys have enjoyed it so much. And now that you know what all you need while launching your own video streaming platform, it is as essential to know what your viewers expect from your service.
Nowadays, consumer preferences are evolving, and this, certainly is the best time to revamp your strategies. Over last one or two years, the whole paradigm of how people look at OTT services has changed considerably. The same audience that enjoyed surfing free TV or preferred streaming free content on YouTube, is now willing to pay a higher price for better quality online streaming services.
So, what is it that your audience expects today? We have studied the market trends for quite some time now and here is what we could sum up for you. Below is a checklist of 3 main categories that matter most to an OTT consumer and if you fiercely focus on these, you can certainly mark a position for your video platform in this highly demanding market.
Checklist to Launch a Successful OTT Service:
No doubt, content is the king. If they’re happy with what you showcase, you’ve almost won them. Due to the ever-changing fast-paced lives, viewers today want more control on what, when and how they watch their favorite TV content. But how do you ensure that you provide content that matches their expectations? Here’s our take:
1.1 Original Programming
As much as it is essential to offer interesting content, it is very much essential to keep it original. Television has, for so long been able to hook audiences because of its ability to constantly provide original programming. And viewers today expect much more than a television from an OTT platform. Netflix has certainly gauged this trend, and went viral with its first ever original programming ‘House of Cards’ in 2013. According to a Parrot Analytics report, Netflix’s Stranger Things was the most popular digital original series in the US amid the week of July 17 to 23, this year. Not only this, Netflix has further extended this experiment into other markets outside of USA and has grabbed on Indian market by announcing its original programming based on a critically-acclaimed best-selling novel Sacred Games by an Indian author Vikram Chandra.
1.2 Localized content
Your viewers are dynamic. They want a variety of entertainment content to suit every mood, they want it localized but would also prefer a good mix of international originals. To look at it this way, we know how big is the appetite for Hispanic content in USA, as much as you find for English channels. Even OTT services from Korean, Denmark and Indian providers have good audiences inside the US itself. Imagine what would be the viewership of a localized service in their own countries. Infact, Netflix has also turned local and has launched completely localized version of its service in Turkey and Poland this year.
1.3 Format of Content
No doubt we live in a busy world. And what better than an entertainment video saving a viewer’s time by providing crisp and valuable content in a shorter format. The penetration of short-form video among 12 to 44 year-olds ranges from 88% to 96% worldwide. Short videos are trending with half of the OTT population using smartphones. The length of an OTT short form is still debatable with views on 10 minutes to 30 or 60 minute long films, but the shorter you make it, appealing your video will be.
1.4 Time to Market
An issue that today’s OTT audience faces is latency. Viewers want their favorite shows or movies to be broadcasted on their platform as soon as they release. Having to wait for a long, for it to be aired on a particular platform is frustrating and often leads to disappointment. And thus, adopting the trend to acquire a popular piece as soon as it comes out is a wise strategy for OTT platforms. To be sure, providers can also gauge the popularity by the number of hits a program’s trailer gets on their platform.
Every OTT platform today, be it in any territory, is trying hard to bring a variety of content library to its audience and thus, it is essential to differentiate yourself by offering original programming and providing a faster access to films and shows on your platform as soon as they release.
Today’s OTT audience is very much less tolerant about the quality of their online video. With so much options available at their fingertips, viewers won’t mind switching if they aren’t satisfied with the quality and ease of accessing your platform. Below are some technicalities that an OTT provider must take into account for providing a better viewer experience:
2.1 Ability to Resume Playback across Devices
Today’s OTT services need an all-platform strategy. Viewers want to access their content through their preferred platform and it can be anything – web, smartphone, gaming console or a smart TV, and they prefer bouncing in between, sometime in the middle of a program. Thus, being equipped with an ability to resume and playback across devices is essentially required.
2.2 Better Speed and CDN
We live in an age where information is available in access, same is the case with OTT services. Users have so long suffered, due to bad internet connectivity. With internet connections getting better, viewers expect their streaming speeds to improve. A seamless experience in accessing a streaming service, improves consumer loyalty towards a service. And thus coping up with bad streaming speed of your video playback is one of the key essentials in providing a better user experience and this is where using a good CDN service comes in.
2.3 Ease of Access to the Platform
As much as they expect better quality videos, you viewers also expect the ease of accessing your platform and the features that can make their viewing experience seamless and less effort-consuming. They want to dongle between the channels, they want cross platform compatibility, they want to pause, repeat, record and play whenever they want and they would also like to download their favorite shows and watch them later at a suitable time. In countries like India and Africa, internet connectivity is a major issue and thus, OTT subscribers prefer downloading their programs while in a better internet speed like in their office environment or a public Wi-Fi and then watch it later when at home, where internet speed might not be that good. Though, broadband speeds are improving, but providing an ability to access their content the way they want can lead you to achieve a greater satisfaction among your viewers.
The luxury OTT services provide to a viewer today is unmatchable. Entertainment is more personalized and is available at viewer’s comfort. Then what it is that makes them pay?
Consumers are open to pay…
A Digitalsmiths survey in 2015 showed us that 61% of cable subscribers pay over $100 a month for their bundled services, which is certainly mouth-watering. Surveys also reveal that people are paying to subscribe for more than one service at a time. They don’t hesitate paying a few bucks extra when it comes to accessing better quality content and leveraging more abilities to add to their comfort.
3.1 But how to make them pay?
Viewers today are more mindful than they have ever before. They want full value for every penny they spend on accessing a service. They expect better quality, better speed, better convenience and a plenty of variety and options to play with. Let’s consider the popular OTT services in the US – Netflix, HBO Now, Hulu and Amazon Instant. While most of these services offer a starting price close to $10 they have different prices for different bundles and still manage to gain subscribers at every level. Knowing your audience and their spending habits and also knowing their tastes in terms of content and catering them a platter they like will certainly help you reap more in the world of video streaming.
3.2 How to Monetize better
It is essential to choose a monetization model based on your audience type. You cannot go Pay-Per-View for a household audience that is habitual to a subscription model, and likewise, offering subscription to millennials on music videos might not be that good an idea. Pay-per-view best goes with latest movie releases and for older collection, you can choose a minimal subscription model. Subscription also works great when you have loads of interesting original content or series programming and Ads work best when you know your audience isn’t willing to pay much for music videos or some general programming that is anyways easily accessible for free otherwise.
For more clarity on what Monetization model works best for your business, please refer to this Blog – Video On Demand Revenue Models : What’s the best for your business.
OTT services today have access to a lot of Video Analytics and thus, it is essential that you take advantage of analytics and customize your video ads according to the audience type and their preferences. In a world so widely scattered, your audience also expect their OTT channel to deal in their local currency and provide payment options that are convenient to them and thus, localizing your payment models will lead you a step ahead in the graph of user satisfaction.

The shocking news that you have been diagnosed with breast cancer is just the beginning of the long road to recovery. A road full of potholes, detours, and traffic jams that make the journey seem never-ending. But what if you had an entire team of women surrounding you as you navigated the road ahead? CONGA and the Women Who Ride are that team.
CONGA began in 2008 with one woman, a motorcycle, and 3,300 miles of open road. Flo Fuhr had recently purchased a motorcycle in Florida and was on her way back home to Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. As she began her journey, she encountered various women who donated a warm meal or a place to sleep. Some even joined her on a motorcycle, and it wasn’t before long that there was a conga line of motorcycles headed across the states. This parade of women was quickly recognized in each town as they passed through cities across the U.S. People would stop and ask them about their ride, and it was then that Flo had her brilliant idea: to ride for a cause. The man who taught Flo to ride as well as her sister had passed away from cancer, and through those losses, Flo recognized the importance of early detection in saving lives. So, during the last leg of her trip, she decided to dedicate her ride to breast cancer, raise awareness and donations, and to fight back through promoting early detection and research.
The ladies, excited about this idea, dressed themselves in pink and drove on. With their fun, positive attitude, pink costumes, boas, stickers, and helmets, it became almost impossible to not notice these amazing women. Their pit stops became opportunities to share their story, and the donations started flowing.
The first year was a success, with over $1,700 raised in a few short days. The decision to keep the conga line moving was an easy one, and CONGA II in 2009 raised $12,000. Since then, CONGA reconvenes each year where women and men ride to “kick cancer to the curb”. 2014 marked the seventh year of CONGA. In just the past two years, CONGA – Women Who Ride raised over $27,000 for the National Breast Cancer Foundation! That is more than 270 mammograms provided for women in need who otherwise may not have access to mammograms.

When Jim Kempf of North Kingstown, RI, first came to Dr. Rainville and NEBH, he was not new to back pain, nor to suggestions to improve it. After six surgeries elsewhere, many years of excruciating back pain and countless medications, a family friend and physician recommended that Jim travel to Boston and meet with Dr. James Rainville.
“When I first visited Dr. Rainville in 2015, I was in really rough shape. I could barely walk, was using a walker to help me get around; I couldn’t drive; and my confidence and mood were really down,” says Jim while reflecting back on this time. “At that point, I was taking a lot of drugs to help dull my pain.”
During Jim’s initial appointment at NEBH, Dr. Rainville remarked that he probably had one of the worst backs he had ever seen. He recommended that Jim begin a program as soon as possible. There was, however, a caveat to that. Jim would need to get off of all his pain medications in order to begin an extensive physical therapy program.
Because Jim is not located in Boston, Dr. Rainville suggested that they find a more convenient physical therapy location in Rhode Island. “In the meantime, I worked with another doctor in Rhode Island, Dr. Steve D’Amato, who helped me put together a drug withdrawal program and also recommended a great local physical therapist,” says Jim. His new physical therapist in Rhode Island, Dr. Kayleigh Melroy, then worked with Dr. Rainville to develop a custom program.
“There were definitely times where I really dreaded physical therapy because I was just in so much pain,” says Jim. “But they got me through it, and I had tremendous support from my doctors, family and friends.”
Jim describes a memory of a family vacation right after his first visit with Dr. Rainville. “We rented a house in New Hampshire with my entire family, but I never saw the house because I couldn’t move,” Jim says. “All I saw was my bedroom and the living room, with the help of my grandsons who carried me in and out. But I told them, I’m going to get better! Next vacation we have, you’ll see.”
After one year of physical therapy and being drug free Jim had a check-in with Dr. Rainville. He didn’t know what to expect, but he felt really good. Dr. Rainville immediately remarked, “You’re not the same guy who was here a year ago!” Jim had improved enough that Dr. Rainville was able to give him an injection of local anesthetic and steroid that reduces the inflammation in the joint space of the spine called a facet block.
“Four days later I took my wife on a trip to Maine. We hadn’t been able to enjoy travel, play golf ,or really even to be social for years, but I was no longer in pain!” The facet block, remarkably, eliminated Jim’s pain for almost two years, during which time Jim continued physical therapy and exercises.
Throughout the following years, Jim underwent another facet block, but, more importantly, he says, he has learned how to cope with his pain himself through activity, exercise, and heat, when necessary.
In gratitude for the care he has received at NEBH, Jim and his wife Marilyn are donors to New England Baptist Hospital’s annual fund, making gifts that support the hospital’s top priorities.
“It has been a tough road, but well worth it,” says Jim. “You need to be strong-willed, and you need to have commitment. I found that there are really four very important pieces to the process. To me, it was having the best doctors, support from your family, a great physical therapist, and making the commitment and sticking to it. It is easy to mask the pain with drugs, but you just need to remain strong-willed and committed throughout.”
Marilynn remarked that he is extremely determined and strong-willed. After 59 years of marriage, she knows that if Jim makes up his mind to do it, he will follow through.
“For years, I couldn’t do anything!” says Jim. “I couldn’t sit, and I couldn’t stand. NEBH truly saved my life and made my life enjoyable again.” | <urn:uuid:0f0dd0a2-e590-4842-9273-8b5b10c8e9e6> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://www.nebh.org/patient-stories/jim-kempf/ | 2022-01-19T03:54:29Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320301263.50/warc/CC-MAIN-20220119033421-20220119063421-00158.warc.gz | en | 0.98181 | 997 |

Avondale Personal Insurance Attorney
Personal insurance helps protect the finances of a person who faces an unexpected accident, injury or death. While it is often assumed that the insurance company will protect an accident victim’s best interests, insurance companies generally work to profit their own business and not the policyholder.
If your insurance claim has been either denied or significantly devalued, it may be in your best interests to contact an Avondale personal insurance attorney from Phillips Law Group. Our firm has nearly 30 years of experience and has assisted more than 155,000 clients throughout Arizona.
Our firm offers a 100 percent free, no-obligation consultation to discuss your situation. If you work with us, you will not be charged legal fees. We only get paid if we help you obtain compensation.
Give us a call to get started at 1-800-706-3000.
Am I Eligible to Pursue Legal Compensation?
Getting injured in an accident can be a devasting experience that puts a toll on your finances. Having the insurance company deny your claim can make the situation much more complicating.
It may be possible that the insurance company is acting on bad faith, which may give you grounds to rebut the denial or devalued offer. Each personal insurance claims is unique, so it may be best to contact an Avondale personal insurance lawyer to get a better understanding of your situation. There are several factors we will take into consideration when reviewing your claim. These factors include:
- The reason your insurance claim was denied coverage
- If the insurance company unnecessarily delayed paying you
- If the proposed settlement is much less than the claim is worth
- Whether the insurance company conducted a thorough investigation
- Whether the insurance company failed to disclose important policy information with you
Many other factors will be evaluated to determine if you have the option to take legal action against the insurance company. At Phillips Law Group, our attorneys are available to discuss these factors during a free consultation. We are here to help. Contact our team today.
Common Personal Insurance Disputes Our Firm Handles
Personal insurance includes any form of insurance that helps protect accident victims and their families from having to pay hefty, out-of-pocket expenses. Our firm has the knowledge and resources needed to tackle the following types of insurance claim disputes:
In Arizona, all drivers are required to carry at least the minimum amount of liability coverage. This includes bodily injury liability which covers the accident victim’s medical costs due to a crash caused by the policyholder. It also covers up to $10,000 of a victim’s property damage.
This type of insurance covers damages to a person’s property, whether damage is done inside the property or to the house itself. Home and rental insurance may also cover the possessions in the home, such as furniture, jewelry, clothing or electronics. It may also cover losses of a break in situation, an injured person’s losses if hurt on property, or damages caused by another accident.
Health insurance generally covers specific amounts for medical expenses and treatment. The amount and type of coverage varies between insurance companies and may cover the following:
- Prescription drugs
- Emergency services
- Imaging tests: MRIs, X-rays
- Laboratory tests
- Assistive medical devices
- Mental health services
- Rehabilitation services
In the event of a family member’s death, life insurance pays a lump sum benefit to the surviving family members or beneficiaries. It may cover burial and funeral costs, loss of the deceased’s income, the surviving family’s living expenses, mortgage or other related debts, among others. Unfortunately, there are many loopholes in this type of insurance, which may increase monthly premiums or make health requirements more strict when the policyholder gets older.
Catastrophic insurance provides Arizona residents compensation for damages obtained in natural disasters, such as storms, earthquakes and floods. Certain areas are at a higher risk of specific natural disasters than others, which is typically why these disasters are not covered with homeowners’ or rental insurance.
Long-Term Care Insurance
This type of insurance helps cover costs that are not typically covered by regular health insurance. It may cover certain chronic medical conditions, disability, or disorder. Long-term care services provide aid to individuals who are not able to perform basis daily tasks, such as eating, dressing, bathing or walking.
For questions about your insurance claim, call 1-800-706-3000 today.
Why Do Insurance Claims Get Denied?
There are a number of reasons why insurance claims often get denied. Unfortunately, many insurance companies do not cater to the needs of the policyholder and will try to save their business money by avoiding payouts. An insurance adjuster may allege the following to avoid a payout:
- You suffer from a pre-existing condition
- You failed to pay your premium on time
- The policy coverage has ended due to not paying premiums or failing to pay on time
- You did not receive medical treatment for your injury following the accident
- You failed to notify the insurance company before set deadlines
- The policy does not cover or excludes your specific event or loss
- The specific event or loss falls outside of the policy’s coverage or below the deductible
- There is a dispute over who is at-fault for the damages
If you have experienced any of these situations, we recommended contacting a licensed Avondale personal insurance attorney from our firm to discuss your situation. There is no risk in calling us.
Unfair Settlement Practices Used by Insurers
An insurance policy is a mutual agreement between the insurance company and policyholder. The agreement is entered on good faith and filing a claim is only expected with a legitimate reason. The same is expected of the insurance company. If a claim is denied, the company should provide the policyholder with a valid reason for the denial.
However, insurance companies may act on bad faith and use unfair practices during the settlement process. Arizona protects policyholders from these bad faith situations under the Unfair Claims Settlement Practices Act (UCSPA). The following examples are unfair practices under UCSPA:
- Attempting to settle claims without consent or notice from the insured individual
- Delaying the investigation or payment by requiring duplicate proofs of loss
- Refusing to pay claims without running a thorough investigation
- Failing to approve or deny coverage within a reasonable time frame
- Attempting to settle claims for much less than what the claim is worth
- Failing to implement reasonable standards while investigating a claim
- Misrepresenting important facts or insurance policy provisions
- Failing to acknowledge and act reasonably toward any claims presented
How to Protect Your Insurance Claim
Each insurance claim is different and heavily depends on the type of policy coverage you have. However, there are certain practices you can keep in mind when signing up for an insurance policy or checking on your current one. Being proactive with your insurance policy is beneficial when it comes to accidents. These practices include:
- Determining the insurance company’s deadlines
- Keeping track of the expenses you endured as a result of the accident
- Understanding your insurance policy and if it covers your situation
At Phillips Law Group, we understand that it may be difficult to understand the factors of an insurance policy, especially when reviewing the fine print, which can cause confusion. Let us help.

Javier Morales, our chief playmaker, and Federico Higuain, the corollary at Columbus Crew, have been two of the most influential players in the 2013 MLS campaign despite the differences between their two teams.
Where Morales is playing at high-flying Real Salt Lake, Higuain is stuck at Columbus Crew who are sitting dangerously outside of a playoff spot — with at least 7 points to make up in 10 remaining games over the fifth-placed spot in the Eastern Conference.
The two Argentines were both born in Buenos Aires, with Morales five years the elder of the Crew playmaker. They were both brought up at Argentine clubs, and both spent a brief but largely unsuccessful spell in Europe.
Stats: Similarities emerge, diverge
Higuain has scored nine goals for Crew, while Morales has scored six; all of Morales's have come from inside the box, while the Crew man has scored three of his from outside the box. He may be scoring more goals, but Higuain is also taking more than twice as many shots as Morales and with a slightly lower shot accuracy — 58 shots at 52 percent accuracy for Higuain, 28 shots at 57 percent for Morales. So if we're to evaluate productivity outside of raw goal numbers, we might say that Morales is slightly more effective, but at this point, it's largely splitting hairs.
We see a slight divergence in their play when we look at passing, but this may be as much down to a systemic difference between Real Salt Lake and Columbus Crew. Javier Morales tends to make more passes and to do so more accurately, with a passing coming every 1.72 minutes and with 83 percent accuracy. To contrast, Higuain is at about one pass every 2.2 minutes with 80 percent accuracy, which is still a fine rate, but still probably speaks to the side in which either plays.
Key passes have been particularly interesting to think about, as Morales has considerably fewer key passes — 68 to Higuain's 97 — but has an equal number of assists. Again, we should ask about productivity: Is Higuain simply playing with other players who finish fewer shots? Remember, a key pass is a pass that leads directly a shot.
We really start to see the difference emerge when we look at how often each is fouled. Higuain has suffered 17 fouls in 2013, one more than he's committed. Morales has suffered 64 fouls, 3.5 times what he's committed. Is this because of the positions each gets into? Or perhaps it has something to do with the conference and regular opponents, or perhaps it has something to do with a definite strategy opponents utilize. Whatever the case, this whole "hack-a-Javi" thing would seem to have legs, wouldn't it?
Clearly the two are similar in very important ways; it's really on the pitch that the differences are really showed at their fullest. | <urn:uuid:825a0890-e9e6-4847-83ad-21a6542eebcc> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://www.rslsoapbox.com/stats-analysis/2013/8/23/4652122/morales-and-higuain-cut-from-the-same-cloth-excel-in-playmaker-roles | 2022-01-19T05:06:14Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320301263.50/warc/CC-MAIN-20220119033421-20220119063421-00158.warc.gz | en | 0.982576 | 596 |
