Segovia is dominated by a Roman aqueduct built in the first century and in use until the late 19th century.
Segovia's cathedral dating from 1525 can be seen in the distance through the aqueduct.
Avila, a World Heritage Site, has a superbly preserved 11th century wall that is a mile long and has 88 round turrets.
Plaza Mayor in Salamanca is one of Spain's largest squares.
Salamanca has one of Europe's oldest universities, founded in 1218.
was filled with students dressed in costumes.
The province of La Mancha is south of Madrid.
We stopped for lunch (pepper soup) in a small town on the way to Toledo.
The La Mancha area is where the novel Don Quixote takes place.
This area remains a symbol of the Spanish culture with its sunflowers, windmills, and Don Quixote.
The historic center of Toledo is situated above the River Tagus.
Toledo was home to El Greco for the latter part of his life. One of his most famous paintings, The Burial of the Count of Orgaz, is exhibited in the Church of Santo Tomé.
The Cathedral of St. Mary of Toledo was built between 1226 and 1493. The style is "high gothic".
Behind the magnificent main altar are delicate filigree panels with themes of the nativity, the ascension, and the life and passion of Jesus.
An image of the Virgin Mary and Child decorate the columns around the main door of Toledo's Cathedral.
On the outskirts of Toledo, I asked our tour guide Ramon if I could take his photo. He quickly turned away and jumped onto a high wall.
I was afraid he might prefer suicide to having his photo taken, but he turned around and smiled nicely at the camera. | 2019-04-24T06:06:12Z | http://aliceinwonderlands.com/Spain/historical.htm |
Thread: The end of recreational drone and RC model flying in the USA?
This may result in the requirement that all drones and model flying craft have a transponder so they can be identified and regulated by the FAA. Many small people-carrying aircraft do NOT have to have a transponder.
It's feared that commercial drones will be assigned all low airspace over a city (Amazon, Domino's etc.), and hobbyist drones and planes will be denied this and relegated to only be able to fly in some deserted places in the middle of nowhere.
Think of all the youtubers, realtors, on and on who would be unable to do their work.
I own none of these, and live close to an airport so no drone-flying allowed here.
BUT, I see this as over-government regulation in favor of big business, with the millions of hobbyists/workers left in the cold unable to use their expensive craft.
I think that while this needs to be addressed, it is using a legitimate perceived fear to enable moneyed companies to dominate low airspace and deny the legitimate hobbyists, who have the same right to said airspace.
and I thought Republicans were supposed to be against big government and over-regulation!
I'm mad but a bit torn, and hope this comes out as something equitable and workable for the million(s) of RC aircraft and drone users.
Like I said, I don't have a drone etc. but I would want to be able to fly it if I did.
It's a tricky one because one can see the potential for drone users to cause mischief, damage and even terror. Is there a way of controlling/policing the harm without impinging on the freedom of drone flyers? Would registration without a transponder work? Is it feasible to mandate registration at point of sale/transfer of ownership? Like you have for a car, for example? Is it possible to identify a drone that is causing problems?
You could be right that this will be followed by an airspace grab by big business, but that doesn't need to be the case. Geofencing of places, routes etc. could be part of the ownership package. Would that do the trick?
goggles and race the drone around a circuit in first-person view.
away for Mosquito Derby 2018.
If we could legislate only for the hard of understanding in our society then I'd be against such steps, but when morons fly the damn things into plane paths and use them as drug delivery platforms, then there has to be something draconian come - 'self regulation' is only ever interested in the first word, seldom the second, so that doesn't work. | 2019-04-25T12:09:37Z | http://brokenforums.com/showthread.php?9220-The-end-of-recreational-drone-and-RC-model-flying-in-the-USA&s=9798c6fafdd8be27da65f36688b14c20 |

Intro: Away in a manger the song.
Colossians 1:19-20 - For God in all his fullness was pleased to live in Christ, and through him God reconciled everything to himself. He made peace with everything in heaven and on earth by means of Christ’s blood on the cross.
Romans 5:18–19 NLT - Yes, Adam’s one sin brings condemnation for everyone, but Christ’s one act of righteousness brings a right relationship with God and new life for everyone. 19 Because one person disobeyed God, many became sinners. But because one other person obeyed God, many will be made righteous.
Romans 8:1 NLT - So now there is no condemnation for those who belong to Christ Jesus.
Colossians 2:13–14 NLT - You were dead because of your sins and because your sinful nature was not yet cut away. Then God made you alive with Christ, for he forgave all our sins. 14 He canceled the record of the charges against us and took it away by nailing it to the cross.
Luke 2:1–10 NLT - At that time the Roman emperor, Augustus, decreed that a census should be taken throughout the Roman Empire. 2 (This was the first census taken when Quirinius was governor of Syria.) 3 All returned to their own ancestral towns to register for this census. 4 And because Joseph was a descendant of King David, he had to go to Bethlehem in Judea, David’s ancient home. He traveled there from the village of Nazareth in Galilee. 5 He took with him Mary, to whom he was engaged, who was now expecting a child. 6 And while they were there, the time came for her baby to be born. 7 She gave birth to her firstborn son. She wrapped him snugly in strips of cloth and laid him in a manger, because there was no lodging available for them. 8 That night there were shepherds staying in the fields nearby, guarding their flocks of sheep. 9 Suddenly, an angel of the Lord appeared among them, and the radiance of the Lord’s glory surrounded them. They were terrified, 10 but the angel reassured them. “Don’t be afraid!” he said. “I bring you good news that will bring great joy to all people.
Luke 2:11–20 NLT - The Savior—yes, the Messiah, the Lord—has been born today in Bethlehem, the city of David! 12 And you will recognize him by this sign: You will find a baby wrapped snugly in strips of cloth, lying in a manger.” 13 Suddenly, the angel was joined by a vast host of others—the armies of heaven—praising God and saying, 14 “Glory to God in highest heaven, and peace on earth to those with whom God is pleased.” 15 When the angels had returned to heaven, the shepherds said to each other, “Let’s go to Bethlehem! Let’s see this thing that has happened, which the Lord has told us about.” 16 They hurried to the village and found Mary and Joseph. And there was the baby, lying in the manger. 17 After seeing him, the shepherds told everyone what had happened and what the angel had said to them about this child. 18 All who heard the shepherds’ story were astonished, 19 but Mary kept all these things in her heart and thought about them often. 20 The shepherds went back to their flocks, glorifying and praising God for all they had heard and seen. It was just as the angel had told them.
A. A way for you started on Christmas.
John 3:16–17 NLT - “For this is how God loved the world: He gave his one and only Son, so that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have eternal life. God sent his Son into the world not to judge the world, but to save the world through him.
John 1:12 NLT - But to all who believed him and accepted him, he gave the right to become children of God. | 2019-04-18T13:14:30Z | https://www.afreshwind.org/sermons-archive/2018/12/23/a-way-in-a-manger |

FenCon19 is pleased to announce thatThorwesten Maschinebau has become a Platinum sponsor. THORWESTEN is a leading manufacturer of customized machine concepts for profile machining in window and outer door production, head-quartered in Beckum in North Rhine-Westphalia.
Cutting-edge manufacturing takes place on a production area of 4,000 square metres. 30 employees are currently employed at the location. The company, founded in 1990, continually invests in the further development of technology, its staff and mechanical equipment and, in doing so, has enabled itself to become firmly established on the market. The team of Christian Luthman andChristian Holtmann will be representing Thorwesten at the conference and adding specific insights on their philosophy, “There is no problem, as there is a solution to every problem. For over 2 decades, this way of thinking has defined our actions, which are determined by permanent and continuous contact with the people involved in the window-and entrance-door production sector. Only people who have hands-on experience can develop innovative and cost-effective solutions. Our customer-and service-orientated corporate philosophy puts us on the right track by making us one of the leading manufacturers in Germany.” Application engineer, Christian Holmann, will be a speaker in the Automation seminar. Thorwesten is active internationally and currently has just under 500 pieces of equipment in place in some 35 different countries including British Columbia, Canada. Isbrand Funk, President of Euroline Windows and previous participant at FenCon18, speaks very highly of both his Thorwesten equipment and his on-going relationship with the company. We have no doubt that that this important commitment to our window and door manufacturing conference will add greatly to the valuable discussions that will develop during the conference. | 2019-04-25T16:02:32Z | https://www.fenestrationreview.com/events-shows/fencon-lands-major-sponsorship-from-german-machinery-manufacturer-1524 |

When veterans returned to NYC from WWII, they were met with a Depression-era housing shortage that resulted from a nearly 15-year lack of new development. To immediately address the issue, “master builder” Robert Moses (who by this time was reigning over the city’s public housing projects) proposed erecting Quonset huts on vacant land in Brooklyn and Queens. These curved, corrugated steel “shacks” were used in the Pacific as barracks and offices, as they were lightweight and quick and easy to assemble. As the Brownstone Detectives tell us, after much debate, the city agreed to use more than 500 Federal surplus huts as temporary public housing on land along the Belt Parkway in the South Brooklyn neighborhoods of Canarsie and Jamaica Bay, as well as in Jackson Heights, Middle Village, and Corona in Queens.
Moses’ idea, however, did not go according to plan. The huts took longer than expected to arrive and builders were unaware of the work involved of retrofitting them as living spaces. Veterans were not happy with the conditions, complaining of a lack of heat in the winter (despite the potbellied stoves that were installed in the living rooms) and leaks.
Eventually, the housing shortage came to an end, and Robert Moses went on to build massive, tower-in-the-park complexes, such as Stuyvesant Town, Riverton Square in Harlem, and Parkchester in the Bronx, to serve as affordable housing for veterans. So in the mid ’50s, the huts were taken down and sold to the public as garages, storage units, and even homes. And according to Queens Chronicle, in Queens and Long Island many were converted to carwashes.
Interestingly, as Brownstone Detectives noticed, there are still some quonset huts standing and in use, like the two pictured above at 1200 Broadway in East Bed-Stuy. | 2019-04-18T20:17:29Z | https://www.6sqft.com/the-history-of-nycs-quonset-huts-robert-moses-era-veterans-housing/ |
Driving is one of the most relaxing and practical ways to enjoy Ireland and, for visitors arriving from the UK in particular, it need not be the hair-raising experience that driving abroad often seems to be. As in the UK driving is on the left, roundabouts are common and narrow roads in fog or rain (not to mention the occasional wild sheep wandering in front of your car) should pose no particular problem to the seasoned British driver. With stunning landscapes, charming towns and a coastline to rival any other, Ireland is best enjoyed at your own pace and the flexibility afforded by self-drive is a freedom well-worth taking advantage of.
If you’re preparing to embark upon a self-drive tour of Ireland, then plan these unmissable routes into your itinerary to witness Ireland’s magical landscape in all its beauty.
Barely outside Ireland’s culture-rich capital Dublin, the Wicklow Mountains dominate the rugged countryside offering breath taking views of pine-covered slopes. Here you can marvel at the country’s highest waterfall, Powerscourt, or soak up the stunning scenery of Glendalough, the Valley of the Two Lakes where Ireland’s finest monastic settlement can be explored.
If you’re arriving by plane, with a variety of car rental companies available at Dublin Airport including National Car Hire, Hertz, Budget and Avis, you can be confident of securing a vehicle for your journey around Ireland.
A favourite among hikers, the Sheeps Head Peninsula offers visitors a stunning drive around an 88km trail from Bantry to the headland and back. From here you can enjoy the spectacular coastline and the virtually unspoiled countryside where daffodils grace the scene as early as January due to the temperate climate brought by the Gulf Stream. With a variety of walks for all abilities, a self-drive tour can be combined with some invigorating hiking to explore one of Ireland’s most beautiful locations.
Forming a circular route from Dungarvan to Waterford, Clonmel and Ballymacarberry, the Copper Coast gains its name from the underground copper mines that used to dominate the region. This 120km road trip takes in the stunning coastline, the Comeragh Mountains, the Nire Valley and Stradbally Cove, not to mention the renowned Tannery in Dungarvan which serves authentic Irish dishes to hungry passers-by.
From Killarney, close to the acclaimed Killarney National Park, a variety of enjoyable coastal drives can be enjoyed including the Beara Peninsula. In this area which is rich in myths and legends you can witness serene lakes, ancient Neolithic graves and stone circles, rugged mountains and traditional fishing ports. For waterside peace and beauty Ballydonegan Beach is an unmissable stop while mouth-watering seafood dishes await you in the many restaurants of the lively town of Castletownbere.
A tour of Irelands innumerable eye-catching landscapes is sure to be practical, relaxed and enjoyable on a self-drive holiday, where you can revel in your freedom to follow your own itinerary at your own pace, absorbing the magical scenery of this spectacular country. | 2019-04-18T11:08:17Z | http://simonferrari.com/tag/beara-peninsula/ |
I haven't posted anything since last year so I am officially making a comeback (of some sort).
Since last year blogging has been somewhat of a difficult topic for myself. I have had so may changes in my life since last year. I got married, new job and I am now the proud owner of a beautiful cat.
I sort of 'quit' blogging for the year and deactivated my blog because I feel that it's become somewhat of a competition. When I started blogging like years back (possibly 6/7 years ago?!) it was the most amazing thing. It was my time to myself and it made me forgot about any worries I had. It was like therapy. We had such an amazing blogging community who helped and supported each other. There wasn't any sort of pressure to have your blog in some sort of way or even what sort of content we posted about. Overall it was really great. I used to blog as a hobby and to be honest I did miss doing this last year. I hadn't had a lot of time to blog but more importantly I didn't want to anymore. I didn't enjoy it because it become such a competition and almost very bitchy. I have literally seen women change in the blogging community. I have seen people not support the people they used to help and I feel I just didn't want to be in that sort of environment. I have even experienced people not being able to go to blogging meetups because they'd have a low follower count. Who even does that.
When I look on YouTube or Instagram all I see is a follower competition or someone posting about how they have haters commenting or someone making a video about some sort of drama going on between bloggers or vloggers. If I ever scroll through the comments all I ever see is some sort of a comparison between bloggers or hateful comments.
All a little negative. I am certainly not saying that there are no bloggers who still help and support other bloggers. They deffo are all still here but I just wish things would change a little. Blogging has become a job for many people which I think is great but I do feel that bloggers who are only blogging as a hobby don't get much appreciation no longer.
But anywho, these are all just my opinions and that's all this is. I am certainly hoping to blog more and share many more beauty related reviews but also a lot more lifestyle posts too. Many changes to come soon.
In January I was invited down to Debenhams Leicester where Estee Lauder were hosting an event. I am very familiar with Estee Lauder as a brand and adore their range of products and what they have to offer. I think my mum has been using Estee Lauder for as long as I can remember and that has clearly been passed down to me. I am an avid user of their Double Wear Foundation and their lipsticks not to mention perfumes. Double Wear is such a well known foundation that I don't think I even need to go into detail about it.
This was what I would describe as a very unique event to go to personally. I like events where the people behind the brand actually speak to you and what they represent as well as demonstrating the amount of hard work that goes into each and every product they develop, and I got all of that at this event. This was one of the 4 events in the UK I believe so I was very lucky to be there. Estee Lauder had actually brought their product development team with them where they almost demonstrated the science in beauty for all of us.
They team had brought and showed us guys how the imaging machines worked, where it would essentially take a photograph of your skin that then measures the tones, pigmentation and textures in your skin. This information is then used to develop products where aspects such as the varying tones and textures are considered. I remember one of the team members mentioning that this way they could even find new tones or textures that exist, that may not be on their database or that they may know off. I found this very informative and just felt that yeah this brand that I like using actually is putting so much effort into what they are offering to the various consumers and just to see what sort of research they do and how they decide to incorporate this research and results into their marketing and products.
After the science came the part we all love. Makeovers. I wanted to my foundation colour re-matched and one of Estee Lauder's global pro makeup artists, Blair Patterson assisted me through this. He has been with the brand for 15 years or so I believe (don't quote me). He was just amazing. I had a slight fan girl moment because I am a little bit of a fan of him and he helped me so much. I had been using 2 different shades of double wear mixing it together, and thanks to him it is a new shade and 1 bottle that is all. He helped me by telling me what my actual undertone is and in the end he actually just did a full makeover for me and I loved it.
I was kindly given a goody bag with some skincare and makeup bits in there which I will hopefully review soon. I feel as though their skincare needs a massive shout out because it really is amazing. I love their serums and moisturizers. I have a sheet mask that was in my goody bag that is amazing. The best. This was genuinely such a great little experience I had. It was so great to actually see and hear what a brand does when it comes to creating products and all the hard work and effort.
PS - I need to get my hands on their Bronze Goddess bronzer. I am very into my bronzer at the moment and I was in love with it. I have just purchased the double wear maximum coverage foundation. Amazing.
Kylie Cosmetics has a lot of us on the path of being broke.
I ordered some items to try out a while back now and these pictures have been sitting in my camera for ages so about time I blogged. My official first post of the year. And I hope everyone's start to the new year is going well!
I have ordered more products by Kylie Cosmetics after this order. The KoKo Collection ($40 back in stock) is amazing btw which was one of the other things I got. It was limited edition and was the item I had a terrible shipping experience with but my millions of angry blogger lady emails may have gotten them to sort it out and one day it appeared on my doorstep which I was surprised about because they stopped corresponding. lol.
Anywho, if you are ordering from the UK there is a hefty shipping charge (free international delivery for over $60) and not to mention the even heftier custom charge. I paid about £25. But for some reason I really like the products. I have tried not to like them but not working guys. I can't wait to sit there again at 3 pm PST to order the Valentines day collection. What is life.
In this haul, I ordered both the palettes. I know there was another one that came out during Christmas time but I wasn't a fan of the shades. They were more on the cool toned side and I much prefer warmer tones. So featured above are the the Burgundy and Bronze palettes along with 3 liquid lipsticks in 22, Ginger and Pumpkin along with a complimentary liquid metal which I haven't even opened yet.
I have gotten so many compliments for 22 everytime I wear it. I recently went to an Estee Lauder event and everyone asked about my lip colour. Pumpkin and Ginger are very similar but equally really pretty shades. The palettes are both just so nice.
I missed out on the Royal Peach Palette but I feel she might release it again.
If you guys want reviews on any of these leave me a comment or tweet.
The burgundy palette is still available retailing for $42 and the lip kits for $29.
A few backs back I went over to the brand new Rush* hair salon that has just opened here in Leicester; literally opposite High Cross, 50 High Street to be accurate. This was one of my more exciting trips to a salon, firstly because I've heard great things about Rush since I started blogging years ago however they never had a salon near by. Mostly in London is what I heard or read about but this is the first one here in the Midlands I believe so yeah exciting and secondly my hair needed some deep TLC. Badly. It got to a point where I couldn't make it look great any how. Haircut was needed.
They invited me over for a cut and finish a few weeks back which went really well. I didn't want a re-style or anything drastic at all. All he had to ask was how much shorter I'd like my hair to be and I think he saw the panic in my face. Yup. But I gotta tell you nothing like that happened and I actually felt really relaxed the whole time and it all goes to my stylist Shane who was so great. He did everything to make me be comfortable and I loved talking to him. I even got a coloring consultation with him which I haven't been able to make my mind up about but after talking to him I will be booking myself in to get a balayage done which I really excited about. He literally handed me the colour chart to look through.
He used Kerastase products on me which as always were fantastic. I will deffo be investing in their heat protectant that they do which is something I really need to add to my hair routine. Instead of getting a whole new cut I just wanted my layers that were already present to be blended in and any damaged hair to be gone and just something to frame my face. After blow drying my hair he actually decided to curl it as well and I loved it. My hair looked so good. It felt soft and nourished and had that whole bounce to it. So just a big thank you to Shane for all the hard work! It's been weeks now and my hair looks good still.
The salon itself is really spacious and really modern. I loved the decor and really liked how open it was.The salon had a great atmosphere which I really loved and the stylists there all provided really great customer service as well. Would I recommend it Yes. Deffo check it out if you are in need of a little hair pamper!
This is an overdue post and I'm not sure why its taken me this long to post it but here it is. I went along to the East Mids Meetup which was organised by Emmie, Kirstie and Lianne. It was held here in Leicester and a lot of planning and work had gone into this so I was pretty excited to finally go!
We all met up at Manhattan 34 here in Leicester which was a really nice place to hold an event like this. I think about 40 other bloggers were also there so sort of a mini bloggers party really and it was pretty good if I may say so myself.
Once we all got there we were all given a fact about another blogger and as an ice breaker we had to sort of ask around and find out who it was which I thought was a fun little thing to start off as most of us were nervous I bet but this was well a great ice breaker. We all had drinks etc and the lovely people from Bru were there as well who were so great to talk to. I am sure if you live in Leicester you've been to Bru. I love the cakes there and lucky us they brought a great selection of their cakes for all of us to try. Their Brownies are the best!
During this time we also had some great entertainment by a very talented young singer, Becky Bruce. Besides this the lovely ladies from Blogosphere Magazine were also there who talked about the magazine for bloggers written by us bloggers. I had a flick through the issues they had brought with them and they look really great and quiet informative yet a fun read. I think I will be subscribing very soon. If I do remember correctly there are 4 issues throughout the year for £25 I believe. Not bad at all.
Gabby from Cool as Leicester PR was also there who gave a really informative talk on the PR side of things when it comes to blogging. It gave a great insight as to how to form relationships with PR's as well as basic things to do when approaching them, keeping your blog up to date as well as knowing your stats. Danique Hair and Angel eyes were also their giving us bloggers lash extensions and hair consultations which was really great of them.
There was also a raffle where all the proceeds were going to Rainbows Hospice and Bowel Cancer UK. There were some really great prizes if I may say so. I think we all wanted the happiness planner! Also, the goody bags we all received at the end were so good! Thank You to Matalan for the lovely items. I loved the home-ware items as well as Witch and Merumaya Skincare, Vita Coco, Lush and Carex.
This was a really great meetup. It was organised really well and also really informative. I really liked that there was a lot of thought behind and I am sure everyone will agree with that.

Thanks to all the girls who put this great meet up together! | 2019-04-19T06:37:31Z | http://www.iheartmexo.com/ |
Koga is a Ninja that lives on the outskirts of Fuschia City in an old mansion. As the gym leader, he set up a number of traps in the mansion that the trainers have to overcome if they wish to battle him. With a number of students, including his sister Aya, Koga is constantly in training for both him and his Pokémon. Despite his Ninja like appearance, Koga is a very kind and well-mannered Person who cares about his Pokémon and enjoys seeing Pokémon of strong powers. Although his first gym battle with Ash was interrupted by Team Rocket, Koga managed to get rid of them using the traps in his mansion and then had a rematch with Ash.
Evolving from Venonat in battle with Ash as soon as it exits it's Pokéball, Venomoth manages to stand strong in battle, incapacitating Pokémon with it's Sleep Powder and Stun Spore attacks. However it's full strength in battle was not seen due to an interruption by Team Rocket. Koga offered Venomoth for Misty's Psyduck in a trade, but Misty refused.
Golbat was used in Koga's final battle with Ash. Using it's powerful Screech attacks, Golbat was able to slow down Ash's Pokémon as well as the people around it. Golbat however did not fair well in battle and lost to Charmander's Flamethrower attacks.
The many Voltorb in Koga's posession were used primarily as traps in the mansion. If they were tripped or released, then they would use their Self Destruct attacks to defend against the intruders.
Koga's Venonat was only briefly seen. He sent it out in his gym battle against Ash and it quickly evolved into a Venomoth. This implies that Venonat has had a fair bit of experience prior to the gym battle with Ash. | 2019-04-18T14:26:51Z | https://www.serebii.net/anime/characters/koga.shtml |
Nearly 20 years ago, Italian nun Enza Guccione moved to Igbedor – a small river island in Anambra state, southern Nigeria – with the aim of assisting the local community and helping young female Nigerians who wanted to join the Figlie di San Giuseppe (Saint Joseph's daughters) Catholic congregation.
Igbedor lies within one of Nigeria's states mostly rich in oil and gas. Although resources in the nearby territory provide a big input to the country's economy, the island's population is one of the poorest in Nigeria, which is currently facing an economic crisis following the collapse of oil prices, the depreciation of the naira and the deadly insurgence of terror group Boko Haram.
"After all these years, I do feel part of Nigerians, particularly part of those people with whom I have been spending most of my time since I moved here," she told IBTimes UK. "They also consider me as one of them. I cannot say I have understood everything about them, bust I most certainly learned a lot from their rich culture that still holds those values that most people in the West have lost: solidarity, friendship, hospitality."
In 2009, Guccione contributed to the creation of the Emmanuel Childrenland Nursery/Primary School in Igbedor, where about 400 children attend lessons. In the same year, she and the bishop of Onitsha in southern Nigeria, founded NGO Emmanuel Family, aimed at providing humanitarian assistance to Igbedor's people.
"People in Igbedor are affected by poverty, illiteracy and diseases – factors that threaten to halve the population. The only source of water in Igbedor comes from the Niger river, which often contains germs and debris, and people who drink this water contract cholera," Guccione said and warned that a lack of possibilities also leads youths to migrate to other parts of Nigeria and abroad.
"We are working in order to create a well and a purification plant that can provide the community with drinkable water. With the creation of the school, we also aim to offer Igbedor's youths the chance to have an education, a better future and feel at home here."
But Emmanuel Family's work still encounters many difficulties, including the lack of interest of organisations and institutions contacted by Guccione. "A development project for a village like Igbedor – forgotten by everybody – cannot be implemented without external help, even though the Emmanuel community and I put so much effort and hope into it. Honestly, I expected much more from those big international NGOs which only focus on those areas where their work can benefit from publicity, risking to lose everybody's trust," she said.
Guccione also warned that the majority of people in southern Nigeria are not happy with the election of President Muhammadu Buhari, who defeated former leader Goodluck Jonathan in March's presidential election.
Referring to a pro-Biafra movement, which calls for the independence of the states that used to be part of former Eastern Region, she said: "Many people in the south are not happy with the election result and they speak about dividing Nigeria. Unfortunately, governments' interest only aim to control the oil business and southern Nigeria is rich in oil, which is absent in the north."
When asked about pro-Biafran movements, government spokesperson Mike Omeri said the authority does not consider the separatist movements as a threat to the current leadership and defined pro-Biafrans as an "insignificant number of frustrated people who are not a threat to the existence of Nigeria". He also slammed allegations of violence against pro-Biafrans as "entirely incorrect, misinformation and calculated to create bad blood and tension".

Publishing is increasingly exploiting ICT to innovate the sector from products to processes, from supply chain to human resources, business models and user experience. What are actions and strategies that policy makers shall support and implement to sustain innovation of ICT and publishing industry? What are experiences that already provide practical examples of how integration between ICT and publishing is being pursued and the best practices we already get from other creative industries? The TISP network, connecting ICT and publishing stakeholders, has provided for the first time some operational guidelines to build an industrial policy on the needs of companies from both sectors. Portraying the voices of those initiatives that are already paving the way to digital innovation in publishing and taking hints from lesson learnt from the games sector, the workshop aims at involving actively the audience in a round table on what’s on and what’s needed for ICT and publishing towards an integrated economic growth and high level performance.
If you are interested in attending this event, a pre-registration is needed. Please send an email to progetti([at])aie.it specifying name of the participant, company and e-mail address.
TISP (Technology and Innovation for Smart Publishing) is the European project aiming to foster the meeting between publishing companies ancd ICT enterprises, in order to stimulate new partnership and business models.
TISP is a platform for sharing experiences, market analysis, business cases study. Publishing and new technologies can find, within an international network, room for a debate about innovation, where supply and demand can match to support the creation of innovative products and services as well as new technological solutions useful for the professionals of the book value chain.
To this end, several professional meetings will be organized (at least four each year) in occasion of the most important trade events in the two domains, and further networking activities will go on throughout project life with different communication tools and channels.
The results of the exchanges between stakeholders as well as outcomes of TISP events convene in the TISP Smart Book, a web resource consisting of a set of business cases and other relevant material that may support decision making by companies in launching new business models. Among the final objectives of the project, there is also the elaboration of political recommendations which, resulting from feedbacks of the TISP events, will be addressed to the institutions, at national and political level.
Started in January 2013 with an expected duration of three years, TISP is based on a consortium of 25 organizations from 12 countries, under the coordination of AIE, Associazione Italiana Editori. The consortium is composed by the umbrella organizations of the two sectors involved, the Federation of European Publishers and DigitalEurope, the organizers of the three world most important book fairs, Bologna Children’s Book Fair, Frankfurt Book Fair and London Book Fair, sixteen national trade associations and four research institutes. | 2019-04-26T16:02:15Z | https://nem-initiative.org/tisp-workshop/ |

The state of Texas canceled Medi-caid HMO enrollment meetings scheduled for this month in Fort Worth as it tried to work out a settlement with the city's public hospital.
The state is attempting to move its $9 billion Medicaid system into managed care amid fears by public hospitals that they'll be left out of the process.
Under the threat of a lawsuit, the state attorney general last week was negotiating with Fort Worth's JPS Health System and University Medical Center, a public hospital in Lubbock, to avert legal action.
Medicaid HMOs were scheduled to start enrollment meetings this month, but that has been delayed until July 1 in hopes a settlement can be reached.
JPS has accused state health officials of cramming a managed-care Medicaid system down the throats of providers without federal or state legislative approval. It threatened to legally block implementation (May 6, p. 2).
Because the Medicaid program receives matching federal dollars, states must receive waivers from HCFA to implement major changes. An 1115(a) federal waiver allows statewide changes. A 1915(b) federal waiver allows a state to implement pilot projects in which Medicaid beneficiaries receive care through a select group of providers.
Texas health officials had intended to operate pilot projects in most of the state's urban cities by expanding 1915 waivers that it had in three locations. Although Texas state officials said they intend to file 1915 waivers for the Fort Worth and Lubbock areas, they had not yet been completed as of last week, said Charles Stuart, associate commissioner for the Texas Health and Human Services Commission.
However, in letters between the state attorney general and JPS' attorney, the two tentatively agreed to allow the public hospitals to participate in the pilots by offering hospital-based prepaid health plans to Medicaid beneficiaries. That option would be offered in addition to four HMOs with which the state already has contracted to provide Medicaid services in the Fort Worth area.
Meanwhile, the state has been holding hearings throughout Texas on how to structure its 1115 waiver application. The state submitted an 1115 waiver last year. HCFA sent it back with concerns and it was never resubmitted.
But Stuart said there also were local problems with the waiver application. To go forward with the waiver, the state's public hospital districts needed to sign funding agreements in which they would put up the necessary matching funds for Medicaid. Of the urban hospital districts, only Fort Worth's public hospital signed the agreement, Stuart said.
In 1995, the state's 10 public hospitals contributed $288.4 million for matching purposes. In turn, they received $492 million in Medicaid disproportionate money. | 2019-04-21T06:15:15Z | https://www.modernhealthcare.com/article/19960624/PREMIUM/606240348/texas-delays-move-to-medicaid-managed-care |
Parvinder Singh scored an unbeaten century while Bhuvneshwar Kumar missed out on the three-figure mark by nine runs as Uttar Pradesh extended their overall lead to a massive 445 runs against a toothless Karnataka attack in the Ranji Trophy Group B match, in Meerut, on Monday.
The duo added 230 runs for the fifth wicket to rescue their team from a precarious 88 for four and ended the third day on a strong 343 for five.
Having come together at the fall of Mohammad Kaif's wicket earlier on Monday, the duo showed great determination and did not allow the Karnataka bowlers to dominate the proceedings.
Parvinder (143 not out) was the more aggressive of the two, not sparing any loose delivery. The right-hander hit 19 fours during his unbeaten stay at the crease.
Bhuvneshwar played the perfect foil to his partner, scoring at a strike rate of just below 36. However, like Parvinder, he also did not spare anything short or wide as he stroked 13 hits to the fence before being stumped by Robin Uthappa off Krishnappa Gowtham.
The exit of Bhuvneshwar brought Piyush Chawala to the crease and the left-hander, in company of Parvinder, added 25 runs for the sixth wicket before stumps were drawn.
Karnataka were dismissed for a meagre 180 on Sunday in response to hosts first innings total of 283.
Uttar Pradesh: 283 and 343 for 5 in 112 overs (P Singh 143 batting, Bhuvneshwar Kumar 91; Krishnappa Gowtham 49-2). | 2019-04-19T08:51:51Z | https://www.rediff.com/cricket/report/ranji-parvinder-bhuvneshwar-help-up-extend-lead-over-karnataka/20121119.htm |
It’s a terrible feeling to wonder if the water you are drinking is safe. We normally put our blind trust in those who provide us with water services and supplies. We can’t survive without water, so it’s terrible to think that drinking it could cause serious or even terminal illness.
We now know that at the North Carolina Marine Corps base of Camp Lejeune, the drinking water was laced with toxins from the 1950’s through the 1980’s. At the time, no one was aware of the situation, and even after the toxic exposure came to light, it took years for the proper investigations to ensue, and even longer to offer compensation to the exposed veterans. For many veterans who served at Camp Lejeune, this information is still breaking news, and both the VA and the veteran community are working to get the word out to those who may have been exposed. Some veterans may already be ill and unaware that their cancer or other medical condition could be due to the time they spent at Camp Lejeune between 1953 and 1987.
Although many details are left unreleased to the public, recent investigations show definitive evidence that for those three decades the water contained toxic chemicals and volatile organic compounds. Not only were people drinking water laced with dry-cleaning solvents, degreasers, and chemicals such as benzene, but they were also bathing in it and cooking with it for years.
Service members and their families living at Camp Lejeune may have experienced one of the worst water contamination issues our country has ever known and were not alerted about it until decades later. Many veterans suffer from multiple conditions that we now know are most likely caused by their exposure. Many of these diseases are insidious too, meaning they don’t manifest until years or even decades later.
At first, 15 different health conditions were brought to light as being linked to the contamination, with the US Department of Veterans Affairs offering free healthcare to those at the base from January 1, 1957 to December 31, 1987. These 15 conditions were: esophageal cancer, breast cancer, kidney cancer, bladder cancer, leukemia, multiple myeloma, renal toxicity, female infertility, scleroderma, Hodgkin’s lymphoma, myelodysplastic syndromes, hepatic steatosis, miscarriage, and neurobehavioral effects.
Due to further research, the list of eligible conditions for VA healthcare benefits has lengthened and the timeframe of exposure has widened from August 1, 1953 through December 31, 1987. The list now also includes adult leukemia, aplastic anemia and other myelodysplastic syndromes, liver cancer, Non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma, and Parkinson’s disease. Keep in mind, however, that the list of exposure-related conditions for healthcare purposes and the list of exposure-related conditions for disability compensation purposes are different. VA does not offer disability compensation for every condition for which they offer healthcare. If you served at Camp Lejeune for at least 30 days between August 1, 1953 and December 31, 1987 and have been diagnosed with: adult leukemia; aplastic anemia and other myelodysplastic syndromes; bladder cancer; kidney cancer; liver cancer; multiple myeloma; non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma; and Parkinson’s disease, you are eligible for disability compensation benefits.
If you have been diagnosed with one of these conditions, you should file a claim for VA disability benefits. Did you file a claim, but get denied? If you would like a free evaluation of your case, Contact us at Chisholm, Chisholm & Kilpatrick for a free evaluation of your case. We have decades of experience in veterans legal issues, including exposure-related disability claims.

Am I suitable for therapy?
Anyone is a good candidate for therapy, whether it be in relation to mild anxiety occurring in daily life, to substantial negative impacts of traumatic life events.
Is it important to have therapy?
Therapy is an effective way to identify the root causes of issues which are negatively affecting your life and to ultimately alleviate the symptoms.
When do I notice results?
Every person's progress in therapy differs. It may the case that where one person notices a difference after 3 sessions, another person may not notice such results until the course of treatment has ended. This is completely normal due to individual differences and should not be disheartening or impact your personal progress.
At AG Confidential Therapy we typically suggest a course of 6-12 sessions in order to notice an improvement in your condition, however, where further sessions are required this will be brought to light and discussed further with your practitioner.
The term anxiety refers to a number of psychological disorders that cause feelings of nervousness, panic, uneasiness and fear that vary in intensity, from mild to severe. Anxiety affects the way in which a person thinks and feels which can translate into physical symptoms. The presence of anxiety in a person's daily life can be extremely distressing and therefore it is important to seek treatment if you suffer from anxiety.
How do you treat panic attacks?
At AG Confidential Therapy we use a combined approach to help treat panic attacks. Primarily, we provide you with psycho-education so you understand the nature and characteristics of panic attacks. Following on from this, you work alongside your practitioner to identify the potential root causes of the attacks and you will consequently be administered with coping mechanisms to minimise the intensity and frequency of their occurrence.
What are the symptoms for IBS?
If you experience a number of the following symptoms for longer than 6 months it is important to see your GP who will be able to administer a diagnosis.
Can I continue with therapy even if my treatment is finished?
Throughout the course of your treatment, you will discuss your progress with your practitioner. If you feel that you are not in a place that you are satisfied with following your course of treatment, you can discuss any continuation of treatment with your practitioner. At AG Confidential Therapy, we aim to complete treatment within 6-12 sessions, however, we understand that due to individual differences, everyone progresses at their own pace. Your practitioner will consider this and will work with you to administer a treatment plan accordingly. | 2019-04-22T01:47:35Z | http://www.agconfidentialtherapy.com/frequently-asked-questions |

Lisa is a single mother with three children who moved to North Carolina several years ago. She maintained steady employment and was motivated to improve her children’s lives for their future. Lisa valued education and her children, Leah, Grace, and Kameron worked very hard in school.
Lisa’s homeless crisis began after she was the victim of a devastating car accident where she sustained a serious spinal injury and her car was totaled. Lisa lost her job because she had no transportation and her severe injuries prevented her from working.
Unemployed and unable to pay the rent, the family was evicted from their home. They moved from motel to motel spending all the money Lisa had saved. Without any support, Lisa was forced to move in with her sister.
After the school was notified of their homeless crisis, A Child’s Place stepped in to support the family, providing food referrals, hygiene products and school supplies. Leah was provided a tutor for extra help with her reading and Kameron benefited from the encouragement of a lunch buddy.
Lisa received a referral for medical assistance and physical therapy, and was able to find a new job accommodating her injury. A Child’s Place helped the family secure supportive housing to get back on their feet again.
“Everything improved for us when we got a place to call home. The kids are doing better in school and enjoy participating in sports. I am also a full-time college student with a 4.0 GPA. I am able to do the things I like best now; being a mom and focusing on education for myself and my children!
Every day in our schools, A Child’s Place program teams make sure students like Leah, Grace, and Kameron, have school supplies, snacks and clean clothing. | 2019-04-25T03:59:39Z | https://www.achildsplace.org/follow-our-success/success-stories/ |

The Mack 6x2 Liftable Pusher Axle is available on Mack Anthem models, which monitors trailer weight and adjusts the truck’s driveline configuration to boost fuel efficiency without impacting performance. The system utilizes sensors in the rear suspension to determine payload and either lift or lower the foremost rear axle.
When an empty load is detected, the axle lifts, allowing the tractor to operate as a 4x2 for less drag, increasing fuel efficiency from 3 to 5 percent. Another benefit is increased tire life by up to 20 percent, which helps lower maintenance costs. For full loads, the same axle is lowered to provide additional stability and distribution of the trailer’s weight. The 6x2 Liftable Pusher Axle saves up to 400 pounds of weight compared to a typical 6x4 configuration.
Mack’s 6x2 Liftable Pusher Axle also includes an Automatic Standby Mode that eliminates the need for the driver to manually push buttons to initiate standby mode. Mack added rear air disc brakes as an option to its 6X2 liftable pusher offer.
The 12-speed Mack mDRIVE automated manual transmission is standard on Anthem models. The mDRIVE, which is fully integrated with Mack MP engines, uses a number of sensors to measure grade, load, speed and other variables to maximize performance and fuel efficiency by automatically selecting the best gear for conditions.

OK, I admit it. I’m obsessed with my new meat grinder and I’m now a passenger with the Mad Hatter’s grinding device.
Adventure? Or road trip with insanity? That question, partially, will be answered tonight when we know about the results of a strange concoction that forever more will be known as “God Help Me Meatloaf”.
I’m also in danger of self rejecting myself as an 18/8 Man. Would an 18/8 Man really conduct an experiment that is so wrought with strangeness and, well…pot luck?
OK – so what is this culinary chemistry act that fills me with such trepidation?
I grind up about three pounds of pork loin and pork shoulder (the pork shoulder is so there is some extra fat, or else the meat is too lean for cooking). I’m thinking that the ground pork will be turned into pork patties (we tried ground sirloin beef patties last week…phenomenal).
Timid Chef “Ok, I respond” and start to form meatloaf balls.
Chief Chef chops away. After everything is chopped, I proceed to mix, ready to form into a meatloaf ball.
Passive Aggressive Timid Chef – “Whatever you say” – I’m now forming a quiet subplot to show Chief Chef who’s the real boss.
I proceed to grind up yesterdays grilled sirloin steak. Then add minced spicy chicken left over from Thai restaurant. Then add three Italian sausage links. Then take a quarter of a loaf of three day old drying homemade bread. The bread being the ultimate act of passive aggression…’because I feel like it.” The bread as it grinds spews out of the machine like an insidious onslaught of asbestos.
I’m no longer consulting with Chief Chef. I simply mix everything together into a meatloaf ball, put in preheated oven at 400 degrees…and pray.
I set the timer for 40 minutes. Chief Chef always overcooks meatloaf. I do not mention this fact. Worried, Timid Chef lives in fear to second guess Chief Chef.
Worried Timid Chef – “some leftover meat”. A half lie. Then I pray some more.
Discreetly, I cut into the meatloaf to make sure it is not over cooked. It is perfect – moist and juicy in the middle; a dark patina of crust on the outside.
I take a bite to test the results…very discreetly, and fully ready to toss the experiment into the garbage can.
“Scottie” …that’s a good sign that I’m being stroked in adoring approval…I think.
Anyway, for a moment, I can bask in culinary glory and puff my chest knowing that God Help Me Meatloaf can be proudly rebranded as OMG Meatloaf.
A culinary tale with a very happy ending. | 2019-04-20T20:11:10Z | https://eighteeneight.com/blog/omg-meatloaf/ |

This example demonstrates how the NavBarControl can be created and customized programmatically (in a code-behind file).In this sample, two groups are created within the NavBarControl: the first group contains three items; the second group's content is represented by a StackPanel holding two TextBlock controls. The second TextBlock displays the text of the selected item within the NavBarControl.The ItemSelecting event of the NavBarControl is handled to invoke a confirmation dialog allowing the selection of the first group's third item to be canceled.

Spike Lee was pretty cut up about Michael Jackson's death and Samuel L. Jackson might star in the movie that has come from this emotion.
Jackson says "it looks like I might be doing" a new Spike Lee movie called "Brooklyn Loves Michael Jackson."
"He's written a movie about these folks who want to have a big concert in a Brooklyn park for Michael," Jackson said. "And the new gentrified people that live in the neighborhood are worried about the kind of element that might be coming into the neighborhood."
Jackson was speaking at the press day for his latest film "Mother and Child."
The star said he met with Lee for lunch the day after the Academy Awards. "We had a power meeting. We talked about it and I read the script. I like it. So it should be okay.
"Spike said he was bent out of shape about Michael Jackson for a long time."
Jackson added that he's hoping that Julianne Moore will sign on to be his wife in the movie.
The last movie Jackson appeared in a film with Spike Lee directing was "Jungle Fever." | 2019-04-18T21:53:22Z | https://www.nbcbayarea.com/blogs/popcornbiz/Samuel-L-Jackson-Likely-Spike-Lees-Michael-Jackson-Project-91720749.html |

The TRN's Zach Duncan looks at the area's quarterback situations at the 11-man level.
My August high school football blog has been quiet this past week. Chalk that up to a heavy workload getting our annual high school football preview section ready for publication. It comes out in two weeks and I promise it’s going to be a good one.
But that drought ends today with the first of many topics – each team’s quarterback situation. It’s been mentioned before, but several quality quarterbacks graduated last year, leaving a little bit more uncertainty at the position than normal.
There are eight returning starters among the 21 area 11-man teams, including one coming off a season-ending injury. Depending on how a couple quarterback battles play out below, the area could have as many as six sophomore starting quarterbacks. That seems a little high, but handing over the offense to a kid with potential isn’t a bad thing at that age.
Windthorst – Excluding Graham’s Tucker Horn, no area quarterback had more pass completions (206) and attempts (304) than Wolf last year when the threw for 2,295 yards with 25 TDs. With most of his top receivers back, I expect those numbers to go up and the 15 INTs to go down. Without prolific tailback Koy Pennartz, Wolf may also get more involved in the run game after totaling 207 yards and five scores in 2017.
Seymour – Cade Holden’s junior season as a starter was a good one as he completed 99 of 168 passes for 1,885 yards and 15 TDs. No first-year starting quarterback last year had more yardage. Holden also rushed for 670 yards and seven scores.
City View – Isaiah Marks was the only freshman starting quarterback last season and had a strong showing considering how good 5-3A Division II was. Marks was 116 of 220 for 1,382 yards and 14 scores.
Iowa Park – Returning for his junior season is Trent Green, who threw for 1,239 yards and 15 TDs while rushing for 891 yards and 19 scores. Green, who I featured in the upcoming preview edition, said he feels a lot more confident heading into the 2018 season.
WFHS – Anthony Vargas took over midway through his junior season, completing 63 of 116 passes for 1,018 yards and nine TDs. Jonathan Hull caught up with him a couple weeks ago and what caught my eye in the preview story was how much he has slimmed down.
Holliday – In the fifth game last season at Iowa Park, Jett Johnson tore his ACL and missed the rest of his junior year. At the time, he’d rushed 10 time for 42 yards and completed 13 of 19 passes for 210 yards and two TDs running the Eagles' Wing-T offense. His dad, head coach Frank Johnson, told me a couple weeks ago that his arm had gotten much stronger since all he could do was lift last spring after surgery.
Electra – Andrew DeLizio returns for his second year as Electra’s starter. Last year, he completed 31 of 68 passes for 471 yards, six touchdowns and seven INTs. DeLizio also rushed for 603 yards and four touchdowns on 107 carries.
Olney – Cesar Flores returns to run the offense for the second season and will be running the flexbone in Jody Guy’s offense. I don’t have any stats on the Cubs for last season.
Rider – Highly touted sophomore Jacob Rodriguez is set to take over for Jorge Vargas after leading the freshman team to a perfect record. He threw one pass last season on the varsity and it ended up resulting in a 46-yard touchdown.
Hirschi – Nate Downing was Mar’tez Vrana’s backup last season and the team’s leading tackler at safety. He didn’t have a single rushing attempt or pass in 2017, but he’s played the position before and gives the Huskies another rushing threat in the backfield.
Graham – Hunter Lanham was the Steers’ JV quarterback as a freshman and helped guide the 7-on-7 team to state again over the summer. He’ll have the task of replacing Tucker Horn.
Bowie – Senior Payton Price moves over from receiver where he caught 19 passes for 26 yards and three touchdowns last season. Last year against Henrietta, I saw Price throw a 61-yard TD pass on a trick play. He finished 4 of 11 for 76 yards and two scores.
Jacksboro – The Tigers are turning to senior Ethan Sanchez, who was Payton Laake’s backup last year. Sanchez didn’t have a rush or carry last year. Coach Brannon Rodgers did tell me before two-a-days sophomore Landon Davenport could possibly add something to the equation.
Henrietta – Junior Jonah Lyde is getting the chance to replace Zack West and I saw Lyde show off his arm last year in the waning stages against Holliday. He won’t be the runner West was – who is really? He was 5-13 for 75 yards and two INTs as a sophomore.
Quanah – Indians coach Matt Garvin was raving about senior Clayton Laughery the other day. Laughery played in a few games last year, completing 23 of 41 passes for 212 yards and a TD. He’ll get more opportunities to throw in Quanah’s opened-up offense.
Munday – Brendan Kuehler is making the same rare move Olney’s Flores did last season, moving from center to quarterback to run the Moguls’ new flexbone offense.
Petrolia – Senior Bailey Sternadel, who caught three passes for 60 yards and a TD last year, takes over for Macon Armour.
Archer City – The Wildcats are going with sophomore Carter Hilbers at quarterback and Shad Hanna is high on what he brings to the table.
Vernon – It’s going to come down between senior Tyler Reeves or sophomore BT White. Reeves got some reps last year beside Brysan Garrard, completing 14 of 30 passes for 298 yards and three TDs. Half of his pass attempts came in the first two games.
Burkburnett – Coach Jason Meng told our Andy Newberry it was an open competition between sophomore Mason Duke and senior Gentry Mullins at the start of two-a-days. Mullins is valuable at safety and it wouldn’t surprise me if that has an impact on how things shake out.
Nocona – The Indians are looking at two guys to replace Jeremy James. Senior Hunter Fenoglio is getting a look after catching seven TD passes last season. He’s athletic but hasn’t played the position before. Then there’s junior Carter Horn, who was the JV signal-caller as a sophomore. | 2019-04-22T06:25:24Z | https://www.timesrecordnews.com/story/sports/high-school/2018/08/12/wichita-falls-area-high-school-football-quarterback-situations-hunter-wolf-trent-green/973066002/ |
The CA Communities team is considering a name change for the current “Office Hours” program. We know that the name might be problematic for some people outside of the U.S. or those not familiar with office hours in college/university.
We want a name for these product-focused online chats that best conveys what they actually are -- a way to connect you with product experts to get answers to your questions and to share information about the products you are using every day.
We’ve narrowed this down to three options -- and we’d love your feedback. Please vote and let us know what you think.
is it too late to suggest?
How about "Ask the Experts CA" or "Ask The Experts"?
What about "[product] Round Table"? Most people would know this implies casual all-way conversation, not just you post a question, we answer (as implied by "Ask CA"). | 2019-04-25T23:45:39Z | https://communities.ca.com/polls/2487-new-name-for-office-hours-program |
The Middlesex Jail at the Edward J. Sullivan Courthouse in Cambridge closed Saturday after 32 years of operation, according to Middlesex Sheriff Peter J. Koutoujian.
The jail’s 220 detainees were moved to the Middlesex House of Correction and Jail in Billerica over the span of two days, a process that ended early Saturday afternoon, Koutoujian said in a statement.
There are plans to revamp the building into high-tech offices and residential space.
The sheriff’s office worked closely with Governor Deval Patrick and others as a part of this transition, the statement said.
Establishing another jail in southern Middlesex County will be a priority, Koutoujian said. | 2019-04-21T04:58:21Z | https://www.bostonglobe.com/metro/2014/06/28/middlesex-jail-cambridge-closes/tH9JuyPXowVZTQLGQ9VdkJ/story.html |

If you've ever worked at a small company, you know that internal operations tend to be a comedic mix of too few people wearing too many hats. In fact, an entrepreneur friend of mine tells this story from his company's earliest days: It was just him and another guy, and when someone would call and ask for the head of accounting, he'd simply say, "Sure thing, please hold," put his hand over the speaker for fifteen seconds, and then start talking again in a slightly higher pitched voice, "This is the head of accounting!"
The reason internal operations is such a difficult thing to manage is because you aren't just counting products on a shelf, for example. You are managing people--and people are multi-dimensional. You can't treat them like objects.
Today, it's getting harder and harder for businesses to balance resources between growing their business, servicing their existing customers, and keeping up with the demands of internal operations. This is being seen especially in the small to medium size market with companies ranging from 10 to 200 employees where founders and execs are still wearing multiple hats.
Yet (recent political moves point to this, like changes in the healthcare space for example), these companies are being expected more and more to adhere to much of the same regulations and compliance of much larger employers who have entire departments dedicated to managing internal operations.
A recent survey conducted on the national level by the Society of Human Resource Management (SHRM) discovered some of the biggest human capital challenges business face today.
"From a group of business executives, both C Suite and HR executives, 41% expressed facing the growing complexity of legal compliance. In addition, 35% saw challenge in creating effective infrastructures that supported an employee-centric, service-oriented HR organization," the study said. And while 69% said they were currently executing HR practices effectively and smoothly, 37% acknowledged that change was on the horizon and today's processes would soon become challenged like the rest.
To add commentary to the subject, I chatted with Nir Leibovich, co-founder and CEO of GoCo.io, an innovative HR technology startup seeking to streamline many of these internal process challenges. I asked Leibovich to shed some light on why these small to medium sized businesses are struggling and what solutions are available.
1. The increased demand and complexity of compliance and administration requirements.
From the IRS to the Department of Labor, employers are being asked to keep track of more information, do it in new more complicated ways, and report more than they ever had to. This level of due diligence is difficult to keep up with, considering the rest of the tasks a business owner has on his or her plate at any given time.
2. Lack of dedicated resources.
As mentioned, this is especially hard for small to medium size companies who tend to have thin HR departments, if any at all. Just keeping on top of the fast changing requirements from taxes to healthcare is more than a full-time job that many businesses can't afford to maintain.
3. Lack of modern HR technology to streamline it all.
85% of small to medium size companies are operating out of file cabinet, spreadsheets, and outdated paper heavy workflow. The sales team has a CRM, the finance team has an accounting software, the marketing team has Google analytics or similar... but what does the HR have? Being able to remove the transaction paper heavy workflows and managing everything through a modern HR technology solution is where everything is going.
"I think it's important to mention that the very product my co-founders and I are building looks to solve many of the same challenges we experienced in previous companies we had owned," said Leibovich. "We took everything we learned along the way and worked to create a solution that was more strategic and focused on high-value tasks, not paperwork and data entry."
GoCo.io and solutions like it are empowering HR and administrative functions in companies the same way that QuickBooks empowers finance and accounting departments. It enables a company to move everything to a digital experience, manage employee data and documents like a virtual file cabinet, and streamlines all of the messy HR workflows like employee onboarding and benefits administration, to name a few. | 2019-04-22T10:33:10Z | https://www.inc.com/nicolas-cole/the-3-biggest-challenges-business-leaders-face-managing-human-resources.html |

Avenue Le Rivage, Boca Raton, Florida. Le Rivage combines privacy and exclusivity in a tropical island setting hosting only 18 estates. This desirable address is just a short drive from Mizner Park’s world-class shops and restaurants, beautiful beaches, the acclaimed Boca Raton Resort & Club, and Boca Raton’s private executive airport.
Old World majesty conveys a magnificent presence in this one-of-a-kind lakefront estate overlooking the shimmering waters to a forested nature preserve. Exquisitely embellished, the keystone-clad villa is introduced by a fountained brick motor court approaching the impressive porte cochere and 8-bay garage. The gorgeous lakeside pool and spa grace a limestone terrace amid exotic palms and tropical gardens. Two summer kitchens serve outdoor entertaining.
This spectacular Boca Raton residence completed in 2009 totals 12,826+/- square feet with high ceilings, limestone/hardwood floors, 5 bedrooms, 6½ baths, 2 climate-controlled wine cellars, elevator, and roof-top observation deck. The main living level is elevated to maximize the breathtaking views. A dramatic cupolaed foyer with onyx-inlaid floor flows into the soaring octagonal salon and banquet-sized dining room with French doors to a limestone balcony. The gilded Deco-inspired theater is resplendent under a “starlight” ceiling. The epicurean’s kitchen highlights an immense granite-topped island, limestone counters, and double Sub-Zero refrigerators.

Fiano di Avellino DOCG is located in Lapio, Montefalcione. The grapes are harvested by hand usually in the second decade of October. After cryomaceration of the grapes at 41 °F to obtain the maximum aromatic extraction from the grapes, soft pressing and cold decanting of the must follow. The obtained wine is refined in stainless steel for about 4 months.
With its straw-yellow color, Fiano di Avellino stands out for its intense and persistent notes of flowers and fruits, such as pear and hazelnut, which evolve over time into more exotic essences and honey. In the mouth it is well balanced and it has a good acid, persistent and well-structured vein. It is an elegant wine, fine and long-lived, with a capacity of aging estimated up to 5 years.

The 32-page NOTAM is an absolute must if you're flying an aircraft to Oshkosh.
Practice, practice, practice - it's what we all tell folks to do before they head to the Fiske Arrival and the great AirVenture experience! Flying in to the "the show" is a bucket list item for most pilots, and it requires you to be sharp--but is flying at 90 knots enough?
I went out this morning and did my usual annual tune-up, and here is my routine. Yes--you need to be able to fly your airplane at 90 knots if it is capable of doing so safely. So getting used to the speed again (how often do you do this?) is useful. But I just holding speed isn't enough--you need to be able to do it while holding altitude, staying directly over a line on the ground (on the actual arrival, it's the railroad tracks), and look outside for traffic--all at the same time.
For many, establishing the configuration is tough in itself, so I make sure that I start up high, pick a definite point on a road up ahead, and descend to 1000' AGL (which is where the 1800' MSL at Oshkosh comes from. I try to hit the speed and altitude right over the road a mile before my spot--that's what you'll want to do at Fiske. Be established BEFORE you get to Fiske remember. That's the first exercise, and today, it worked out pretty well.
Next, I fly down the road, maintaining altitude and airspeed within a couple of knots and fifty feet. And I LOOK OUTSIDE. It's important not to fixate on the instruments--and also not to just look straight ahead. Keep that head on a swivel, do a scan, then glance inside, make any corrections, then get back outside. I did this for about ten miles--longer than you'll need at Oshkosh.
While practicing this, I checked power settings and temperatures, just to make sure I'd have no surprises on the actual day-- know that your airplane can handle it, and jot a few notes about what works. Just be aware that if you're practicing at altitude, as I was (we live at 4500' MSL), you might have to adjust when you get to Wisconsin.
Finally--if you plan to use your autopilot to help maintain altitude, practice with that. Many autopilots will not allow you to use JUST altitude hold--they'll be in heading or NAV mode as well, and you can't just go from Fiske to Ripon in a straight line according to the NOTAM. So if you plan to use it on the actual day, practice, practice, practice.
Practice a few breakouts, as if you have been cut off, or someone gets slow in front of you. It WILL happen for real. Turn out, establish a climb, and get out of Dodge--safely. Head back for another try.
Ninety knots? Great practice--but make sure you do all of the other stuff as well. Then go practice landings with a different traffic pattern each time, and at different speeds and bank angles. Remember: Spot landings! | 2019-04-26T06:06:25Z | https://newsline.kitplanes.com/2017/07/18/ninety-knots-to-oshkosh/ |
Why Choose Architecture and Sustainability?
The two year Architecture and Sustainability curriculum grows from the AAS degree in Architectural Technology, which provides students with the foundation of technical knowledge critical in architectural education. The Bachelor of Science program adds to this foundation with studio courses in architectural design, community studies, environmental systems, and additional technical courses that shape a comprehensive undergraduate program in architecture.
The special emphasis of the program is the integration of sustainable building principles at all levels of the curriculum. Architectural materials and systems selection, site planning, community development and historic preservation are increasingly understood to play a vital role in the reduction of waste in terms of energy and natural resources. The program is designed to allow students to explore these important aspects of the profession of architecture. This critical evolution in architectural education prepares students to take their place in the next generation of professionals.
Continue education for a master's degree in architecture and eventual licensure as a registered architect.
Courses and studios in the program are structured to mirror the professional office environment, requiring students to be motivated and self-directed. Studios balance the practical and the theoretical aspects of architecture, design and planning to reflect the complex set of parameters that shape the architecture profession.
A special focus of the program is the Small Town Studio (ARCH 441.) This unique program component allows students to engage directly with their community and explore the ways in which architecture and planning can expand on the cultural and economic potential of small towns in Michigan and regionally.
A recent study by the National Council of Architectural Registration Boards (NCARB) suggests that the next generation of architects will need to be capable of integrating the practices of sustainability into established work methods. Specialized training in sustainability as it relates to building materials, design and planning, as well as the development of an organic relationship between buildings and their environment, will be a valuable credential in the decades ahead.
There are no geographic limitations on employment opportunities, however, educational requirements for architectural licensure vary by state, so students should research these requirements, as well as the requirements for graduate education should they choose to pursue a master's degree.
Admission to the program is competitive and open to Ferris State University AAS graduates, and transfer students at the third year with appropriate preparation. Students entering the Architecture and Sustainability program must have a minimum 2.75 GPA. In addition, they must present a portfolio that demonstrates competency in design principles, architectural graphics, architectural design, and construction documents.
Along with the portfolio, applicants must submit a letter of intent expressing their preparation for and commitment to the study of architecture. Applications and portfolio should be submitted by February 1 prior to fall semester requested. For Portfolio Guidelines visit the program website.
Consult the Required Courses above or a program advisor for program specific General Education requirements.

Probably the last place that you would expect to have a long hockey history that dates back 50 years, is Amarillo, Texas.
Out in the Texas Panhandle five hours from the heart of Texas hockey in Dallas, Amarillo boasts a strange history that both goes back decades and was short-lived. The town has seen three different teams play under the same name, was one of the first towns to have a viral nickname, and through it all, has found hockey stability over the last 20-plus years despite playing in three different leagues.
Hockey in the central part of America wasn’t really a new idea, with the then-Central Professional Hockey League forming in 1963, but most players who were worth anything trying to get to the then-six team NHL played in the IHL or AHL.
But when the NHL doubled in size for the 1968 season, so came the need for more farm teams for those new NHL franchises to keep their prospects. The Pittsburgh Penguins and founder Jack McGregor for some reason thought Amarillo, Texas was the place that their farm team should be, setting up the Amarillo Wranglers to play in the newly-named Central Hockey League, and the newly built Amarillo Civic Center, a 5,000 seat multi-purpose arena.
The Wranglers hit the ice in that 1968-69 season…and weren’t great both on the ice and in the stands despite the NHL affiliation. In the 9-team CHL, the Wranglers finished with a mark of 29-32-11 missing the playoffs by 11 points and finishing 7th in attendance at 1,990 fans a game. Not many players from that first season went on to long careers in higher leagues despite being a feeder to the Penguins, with defenseman Doug Barrie having the longest career at higher levels, playing more than 500 games in the WHA and NHL for Pittsburgh, Buffalo, Los Angeles, and Edmonton.
The poor play on the ice, and poor attendance caused the Penguins and McGregor and the team to cease operations for the 1969-70 season, and in an even stranger twist, the same group brought the team back for the 1970-71 season for round two of Amarillo Wranglers hockey.
It didn’t go any better.
The CHL was down to seven teams that season, and the Wranglers were DEAD LAST by a mile. Going 14-47-11, finishing last by 23 points, but more importantly, finishing dead last in the league in attendance. After averaging nearly 2,000 fans a night in the first season, the Wranglers 2.0 averaged just 1,646 fans. For comparison’s sake, the team that was 2nd worst in attendance that season was in Tulsa, where the Oilers averaged 3,419 fans a night. More than double the Wranglers.
So hockey, once again, was gone in Amarillo after McGregor and the Penguins again ceased operations. This version of the Wranglers did not come back.
Hockey fans in Amarillo did not have to wait long for their next crack at the sport, when the newly-formed Southwest Hockey League was formed, and Amarillo was granted one of the six founding franchises for the league in 1975.
The SWHL was not pro hockey, but sort of like a senior junior league, with players being 18-and-up, and going to school while playing. Teams gave the players room and board, tuition for a local college, and a $60 monthly stipend. Kind of think of it as college hockey for towns that didn’t have college hockey, but where players could move on to the NCAA or pro hockey after.
The league really wasn’t Southwest, while it had teams in Amarillo, Albuquerque, El Paso, and Reno, it also had teams in Butte and Billings, Montana for some reason. Not at all Southwest.
The Amarillo team in the SWHL was once again named the Wranglers. The third attempt at making that name work.
And the team was a hit on the ice! The SWHL Wranglers racked up a 40-30-2 record in their first season, giving up the fewest goals in the league and claiming the SWHL regular season championship. The Wranglers kept that momentum rolling, and captured the league championship on home ice, the first hockey championship for the Texas Panhandle.
Some of the star players on that championship squad included mac Severyn, who racked up 89 points in 62 games that year, Kelly Kehoe, who posted 85 points in 72 games, and Kirk Fyffe who netted 81 points in 65 games. Each of those three broke 40 goals, scoring 45, 44, and 43. The star in net was Doug Allan, who posted a 3.30 GAA that season, backstopping the Wranglers in 65 regular season games.
But the SWHL was not for long. It turns out having to pay for players’ college tuition as well as other costs is just as much as paying them salaries, and the SWHL was running out of money fast, with Amarillo one of the only teams who had enough fan support to be a viable team.
In the middle of the second season, the Wranglers owner sued the SWHL, forcing the team to change its name to the Amarillo Lone Stars, who never played with a logo, and borrowed jerseys from the team in Minot so they didn’t resemble the Wranglers.
The writing was on the wall for the SWHL, and on January 24, 1977, just past the halfway point of the SWHL season, the league and all six of its teams folded. At the time Amarillo was in second place with a 26-18 record.
After that, the Texas Panhandle would have to wait nearly 20 years for hockey to make its return to Amarillo.
In 1996 minor league hockey returned to the southern part of the central United States with the newly formed Western Professional Hockey League.
The league started with six teams, mainly in Texas and Louisiana, one of which was the newly formed Amarillo Rattlers.
And the return of hockey proved to be a hit in Amarillo! The Rattlers routinely packed the Amarillo Civic Center, averaging just under 3,600 fans per game in the first season, despite finishing dead last that first season at 17-39-8. The Rattlers were able to keep that strong attendance going over their entire time in the WPHL, averaging around 3,400 fans per night.
Unfortunately for hockey fans in Amarillo, the team was BAD. Really bad. They never once made the playoffs in five season in the WPHL, and their “best” season was a 31-30-8 mark in 1998-99 for 70 points, where they still missed the playoffs.
But like the SWHL before it, the WPHL was not for long, expanding too quickly and hitting 18 teams in 1999-2000, before dropping to 14 the next season, the last under the WPHL name.
In 2001, the remaining WPHL teams merged with the new CHL (no relation to the old CHL the Amarillo Wranglers played), and this time, Amarillo was one of those teams, with the Rattlers playing in the Northwest Division. Despite an Amarillo-best 3700 fans a night that first season in the new CHL, the Rattlers still stunk on the ice, going 19-39-6, again finishing last.
But it was time for a chance, and with it came one of the wildest names in hockey history, one that still lives on in infamy today.
After the 2001-02 season, the Rattlers changed owners and with it came a new name.
As the radio voice of the team put it, you could have knocked over the crowd with a feather when the new owners announced the team would play the 2002-03 season as the Amarillo Gorillas.
And it kind of worked! The Gorillas maintained that fan base the Rattlers had built, drawing just under 3700 fans in their first season, but FINALLY making the playoffs with a mark of 39-23-1, finishing second in the Northwest Division, but getting bounced in the opening round.
But the Gorillas were able to maintain that on-ice success for the next four years, making it five-straight playoff appearances, including back-to-back trips to the league semi-finals.
The most notable accomplishment for the Gorillas during that time came in the 2005-06 season when forward Derek Hahn posted a stunning 114 points in 64 games, winning the scoring title by seven points and capturing CHL MVP honors.
While the Gorillas were steady in attendance the first four years, averaging around 3300 fans a night, as the economy turned for the worse, so did fan support in Amarillo.
Over the final four seasons of the Gorillas, attendance dipped from just under 2900 fans a night, to a sad 1,761 in the final season of the Gorillas, who announced that the 2009-10 season would be the final season in town for the team.
But unlike the last time hockey left town, there would be no wait to replace the team.
With the down economy and many towns losing their minor pro teams, many of those towns turned to junior hockey as a way to fill the void of hockey in towns, while managing to do so at a cheaper price than the pro teams.
In 2010, the North American Hockey League came to town, bringing with it the Amarillo Bulls, who would play in the NAHL’s South Division, which had teams across Texas and even over into New Mexico.
And the Bulls proved to be a hit by NAHL standards, both on and off the ice! The Bulls, led by head coach Dennis Williams, dominated the NaHl from the start, reaching the Robertson Cup Playoffs, and even Robertson Cup Final Round, each of their first three seasons. The best stretch came in 2011-12 and 2012-13, when the team went a COMBINED 92-14-5-9 for 198 points over those two seasons. It all culminated with a Robertson Cup victory in 2013, when the Bulls made the final game, and rolled the Wenatchee Wild, 5-0 for the first championship since the Wranglers in the SWHL.
But since then the Bulls have fallen on hard times. Williams led the Bulls back to the playoffs the next season after the title, where they were eliminated in the second round. Following that season, Williams left, and has since made his way to the WHL and the Everett Silvertips, and since his departure, the Bulls have been trying to recapture that same magic.
Since Williams’ departure, the Bulls have missed the playoffs each of the past four years, and seen three head coaches come through the doors, bottoming out in 2015-16 when they posted a mark of just 13-43-2-2.
Currently at the helm is Rocky Russo, an assistant on the great early Bulls teams, who in his first season helped the team improve by three points with a very young foundation. Through it all, the Bulls have maintained a strong fan base in Amarillo, never dipping below 2,000 fans a night after the first season, routinely putting them among the Top-5 in the NAHL.
While the current Bulls work to get back to prominence, the players from those early great teams are starting to make their mark on hockey. Forward Brady Ferguson was the active NCAA scoring leader this past season in college hockey, and the team saw its first player reach the NHL, when goalie Colin Delia was called up to the Chicago Blackhawks late this past season.
And that, is more than 1,800 words about hockey in Amarillo, and just how far back the sport goes in a town nobody would think of as a hockey hotbed.
Keep doing these, I really enjoy reading them.

Uniforms and history of formations of the german army until 1933.
Member of Deutsche Gesellschaft für Heereskunde e.V.
Hello! The rank Generaloberst was introduced in 1854. From 1854-1911 he had three pips. A Generaloberst mit dem Rang als Generalfeldmarschall had three pips and crossed fieldmarshall´s batons. Since 1911 a Generaloberst mit dem Rang eines Generaleldmarschalls had four pips. They served in the inner circle of the kings or of the Kaiser. Mostly they were noble, because there was a prussian tradition, that noble officers couldn´t became a Feldmarshall! But this tradition ended in 1871... As far as I know, they didn´t wear a fieldmarshall´s baton. Even Kaiser Wilhelm I wore these shoulder boards (3 pips and crossed batons)!
Congrats, mate! THAT is a nice group! Chapeau!
That's an argument... I think both stars are the same. Are there any differences between war and postwar stars?
Hello Andreas! Thanks a lot! What makes you sure with the date please?
I wait for the photo! Your collection must be phantastic!
That sounds great! Again congrats to the Krug! So it will be clear, that it´s an original one!
A friend of mine wrote: the lid and pushers do not fit at all to a jug of the Bavarian infantry from this time. The coat of arms on the pusher is a rather washed-out Bavarian state coat of arms, on which, however, the royal crown is missing. Also the pictures look to me like the pictures, which I know from - quite well made - repro jugs from the 70s and 80s. Even if Ludwig II. today has a "fairytale-like" meaning, one would have attached in this time only a portrait of the current ruler as a ground picture. I therefore find it strange that the jug from 1899 shows a picture of Ludwig II. A portrait of Prince Regent Luitpold would actually belong there. The mentally ill Otto I would probably not have been depicted. And the Prince Regent was already quite admired and transfigured at that time. Chris should try to find out whether the name and the regiment are painted on or printed on. If they were painted on, the piece could possibly be real, but it would certainly have had a new lid at some point. A jug of the Infantry Body Regiment would also express the pride of having served in that particular regiment through a special illustration and not through a standard illustration that would fit any infantry regiment. But you can only say that with ultimate consistency once you have held the good piece in your hand. 180 € are a bit too expensive for that, such a repro jug is usually traded between 50 and 100 € today. The page "Reservistenkrugsammler.de" is good, because the texts and pictures are written by Wolfgang Gult, who is known to me as THE expert and reservist jug collector from the Gesellschaft für Heereskunde Did you ask Wolfgang Gult?
That's possible. Or maybe it's a Stein from before 86 painted in 97?
But that doesn´t explain the picture of Ludwig II. http://www.reservistenkrugsammler.de/Details.php What did the expert say acording to Ludwigs picture?
Do you have a photo from the inside of the lid? | 2019-04-21T12:39:09Z | http://gmic.co.uk/profile/6460-the-prussian/ |
Our stay in Jakarta was really home-orientated. Since we had such a nice accommodation we spent quite significant time in our little place midst the craziness of the city. Nevertheless there’s quite much to do and see in Jakarta plus you just can’t miss all the smiles and kindness of the people living there :). As always cost are daily averages for 2 people.
Groceries (different food items and all other similar things) in Jakarta it was mainly breakfast and quite many snacks 🙂 – 90.000 rupiah.
Other (mobile internet) – 25.000 rupiah. The cheapest data prepaid card I could find was 300.00 rupiah. And be warned that when arriving in our terminal I could find only one place that sold prepaid data cards and they only took cash. Usually there are loads of this kind of vendors in the airport.
Our accommodation was 4,27 mln rupiah so in total we spent 4,27+4,23 = 8,5 mln rupiah (about ~520 EUR) during our 11 days stay. Of course you can actually get through with considerably less in Jakarta but it’s mostly all up to what kind of accommodation you want :).
Taman Mini Indonesia Indah – a huge village with numerous activities, temples from all over Indonesia, different museums for all tastes and much more! This is a must visit and it will take you a full day!
Flea market Jalan Surabaya – you can find a huge number of different antiques and souvenirs there. Even if you don’t plan to buy anything it’s really interesting to see, almost like a museum of it’s own!
People – as I’ve already expressed several times people in Jakarta are just so friendly and nice and it’s impossible to go for a walk without a smile on your face :)!
Once again – as usual all the costs are averages for 2 people per day. KL was naturally not so inexpensive as Langkawi but nevertheless a very affordable place to visit or live.
Eating out (also includes breakfast). As an average a meal costs about 10-12 ringgit but be on a lookout for great lunch offers from numerous food trucks for only about 5-6 ringgit – 27,5 ringgit.
Our accommodation was 1638 ringgit totaling our expenses at 3120 ringgit (about 647€) during our 13 day stay.
Our accommodation in Singapore was 150 S$ which means it total we spent 400 S$ (about 250€) during our 3,5 day visit.
As said before the accommodation in Langkawi was not the cheapest one + since from last year there is also a nationwide tourist tax for everyone 10 ringgit per room per night. Our hostel cost us 1687 ringgit. So in total we spent during 17 days roughly 1632+1687=3319 ringgit (about 682€). The ratio between accommodation and all other expenses was about 50:50 which also reflects not so cheap accommodation costs related to other living expenses.
Our accommodation cost in Phuket was 17800 baht. So in total we spent around 57000 baht (about 1485€). In conclusion our monthly cost was slightly under 1200€! And for that kind of money you get a very decent living, scooter for the whole time and everything else you could wish for. Well, of course we got some great prices through our friend (he is more than welcome to help so let me know if you plan to travel there and are in need of a scooter for example). I believe that actually for about a 1000€/month you could do pretty well in Phuket.
A few days back I wrote about our budget and what to see in Chiang Mai. As promised here’s also a brief overview about Bangkok. First I have to say that if you plan to stay in Chiang Mai, Phuket or other similar areas for a longer time it’s totally ok but for Bangkok 5-6 days is maximum, at least in my opinion. Yes, it’s a huge crazy city with a lot to offer but you get tired of it quite fast. Of course it is totally depending on a person but at least most of the people I’ve met and who have been there are agreeing on this one.
As in case of Chiang Mai all expenses are daily averages for 2 people. We stayed in Bangkok for a period of 6 days.
Our hostel was 4100 baht so in total our living cost for 6 days was 10700 baht (277€). So in case of our trip our daily costs were roughly the same as in case of Chiang Mai but the latter is definitely a cheaper place to live. | 2019-04-21T04:24:14Z | https://theworldasitis.blog/tag/budget/ |
We teachers love engaging children in learning. Education games are one way we can do this. Staples offers a wealth of educational games (among other things) that will provide opportunities in your classroom for enthusiastic and engaged kids. In fact, this post is sponsored by Staples.
Here’s what you need to remember when using education games in your classroom.
Get referrals – either from teacher colleagues or trusted resources such as Pinterest, educational bloggers, or websites like Staples.
Use your plastic tubs or drawers. And, label them! It’s also helpful to have tubs that are see-through so you can see what’s in them.
Keep some games in storage and some games out for use. Mid-year is an especially good time to rotate the games you have available for your students to use.
Of course, there are many learning games you can make yourself.
You can make bingo boards online using free sites like this one. Or you can do what Larry Ferlazzo does and have the kids put the words on their own boards.
Memory is a great way to practice or review concepts such as sight words or matching math concepts. For example, you could make a fraction memory game with the drawing to match the numeral.
Use any material you want to review. Divide into two groups, or families. A player from each family comes up to the front of the room and the first person to hit the buzzer (whatever you want to use is fine) gets to answer the question first. If they answer correctly, that team gets a point. If they don’t, the other team gets a chance to answer and get a point.
Or you can have your students make their own games based on specific learning objectives like showing learning or reviewing a concept. Use old game boards or make your own out of cardstock.
If you’re a TPT fan like me, you already know that there are some brilliant educators who are willing to share their education game ideas for a small fee. It’s so hard to only recommend a few stores over there but if you’re looking for learning games, start with these: Make, Take & Teach, Rachel Lynette of Minds In Bloom, Joey Udovich, Teaching With a Mountain View, Hello Literacy, Tracee Orman, and Your Bag of Teaching Secrets.
Definitely, YES!! education games can help free the mind from the boundaries that a traditional institute have.
sounds great, Wendy – thanks! | 2019-04-26T12:34:12Z | https://imaginationsoup.net/using-education-games-classroom/ |
For all the cheese lovers out there—you’re in luck. A new eatery has popped up in Langley’s Walnut Grove area and it features a cheesebar. This is not a drill.
The Italian Osteria and Cheesebar is part of the Joseph Richard Group (JRG) and just opened their doors this week.
It’s the first Italian-cuisine eatery for JRG, with their other establishments including 14 public houses and three S&L Kitchen & Bar restaurants.
Hit up this new hot spot for all things Italian. The 180-seat restaurant features creamy risotto, handmade ravioli, creative pizzas, and an impressive dessert menu.
The most exciting part is an epic cheesebar where you can sample a wide variety of Italian cheeses, as well as a community wine table to try select premium wines by the glass.
“In Italy, sharing food and drink and bonding with extended family is a centuries-old tradition, and that idea of bringing family and friends together to share great dishes is what we’re all about at our establishments too,” says JRG CEO and co-founder Ryan Moreno.
The Italian eatery is taking over the spot that originaly housed JRG’s Oak & Thorne Public House, which has now moved across the street. | 2019-04-22T02:38:23Z | https://604now.com/langley-cheesebar-new-italian-eatery/ |
Learn the Tibio-Talo-Calcaneal (TTC/Double )fusion using Integra Advansys Plate surgical technique with step by step instructions on OrthOracle. Our e-learning platform contains high resolution images and a certified CME of the Tibio-Talo-Calcaneal (TTC/Double )fusion using Integra Advansys Plate surgical procedure.
The most common reason for performing a double-fusion is in concurrent ankle and subtalar arthritis in the symptomatic patient.
Consideration should also be given to the technique in cases of revision of fusion surgery to the ankle or subtalar joint and also avascular necrosis of the talus .
Arthritic change is however not a pre-requisite for this type of surgery. As a final option for an unstable ankle and hindfoot in the neurological patient it has significant merit also.
There are various techniques available surgically for performing a double fusion , these being to use large fragment screws in isolation , to fuse using an intra-medullary nail , an external frame or a plate designed for the purpose.
The techniques of joint preparation and correction of deformity will be broadly the same irrespective of the technique chosen for fixation.
The INTEGRA Advansys TTC plate is designed for lateral application through a trans-fibular across the ankle & subtalar joints. As such both access and implantation are straightforward .
These plates are sided and come in 4 lengths and 2 widths (of the Calcaneal limb). As such they are able to accommodate an appropriate variety of adult foot & Ankle sizes. THe INTEGRA TTC plate is of robust dimensions but also can be contoured if required (for example to accommodate heel valgus). The Integra screws have excellent thread purchase on bone and their innovative design (with a non-threaded head) allows them to pull the plate to the bone after which they can be locked into place with a threaded grub screw /washer. Compression is achieved both using an external clamp anchored temporarily proximal to the top of the plate as well as with a proximally placed compressive hole in the plate.
In my experience given the plate is applying compression laterally a medially placed large fragment screw across the ankle is usually required to counteract the medial tensile force that results .

As I endeavor to assemble an 1890s playset, I’ve found a few instruments that are lovely to behold; this is one of them. This rut niblick dates likely to the late 1890s and retains many “original” components, although I suspect they were separate components once. It has a nice, straight and strong shaft stamped “R. Hepburn, Maker, Royston” (see below for more about Hepburn), original sheepskin grip and the head bears the name Tom Stewart, St Andrews, with the now famous pipe cleek mark. There is a fair amount of shellac (?) on the shaft, I think the sellers didn’t realize there was a stamp in it.
The club has a loft of about 50-degrees, generous sole, given the small dimension of the entire head, and a nice patina throughout.
The reason I believe that the components were separate is because the hosel nicking may be indicative of a later re-shaft. Stewart made clubs beginning in 1893. Hepburn was at Royston Golf Club no later than 1892 (possibly earlier – the club simply didn’t formally incorporate until 1892 – the course was laid out in the late 1860s).
I am planning to preserve the grip, if possible, and affix a period-appropriate hide with 1.5 mm of underlisting. This is going into a playset; long may it live!
Stewart, of course, was born in St Andrews in 1862, made irons with his own name on them and, indeed, for most of the top makers and players of his time. Stewart was one of the most respected club makers in Scotland and his early irons were used by Tom Morris himself. He served an apprenticeship with Robert White and started in business on his own in the mid-1890s in Market Street, St Andrews, but also took over premises in The Pends where Robert White had his business. For quite some time irons were forged in The Pends then taken across to Market Street for finishing. St Andrews is not huge but that could not continue as the business expanded so he took premises in Greyfriars Gardens before moving to the address in Argyle Street where the business remained until his death and beyond.
His own maker’s mark was a clay pipe but you will also see a stylized spider-like star on heads which he himself rejected on grounds of quality but sold on to other makers. Importantly, in 1905 he registered the pipe mark as a trademark and post-1905 clubs contain this trademark information below the pipe. His “early” clubs are grouped in the years 1893-1904.
In addition to his clubs his patented iron hole liners and cups were used on the Old Course at St Andrews.
The story of Royston Golf Course is a magical one. Set out originally in 1869 by Lord Dunedin and George Gossett (son of the founder in 1864 of Westward Ho Golf Club) accolades for the course go far back.
The Club was officially instituted in May, 1892 and had 240 members. Robert Hepburn was the professional at that time, who also held the “green record” of 74. Incidentally, at the same time, the amateur record was 75! Robert’s brother was James Hepburn, born in Carnoustie in 1876 and an original member of the PGA in 1916. In 1914, James moved to the US to become golf pro at National Golf Links in Southampton, NJ.
Scottish Team in 1903 (Prestwick) (standing) R. Smith, G. Coburn, J. Braid, R.Thomson, W. Park, W. Fernie. (seated) J. Kinnell, J. Kay, A. Herd, J. White, B. Sayers, Robert’s brother J. Hepburn, The team included five Open champions.
Lord Dunedin and George Gosset both very keen golfers who came over with a bag of clubs each and set about arranging their golf course by establishing the holes by position and distance according to their striking of golf balls.
A simple but effective basis which was helped by the fact that the heathland was all close cropped grass. This course unfortunately only lasted about two years when in 1871 it was felt that Royston was too far from Cambridge.
However in 1890 the idea of a golf course on the Heath came to the fore again. This time it was with the encouragement of the Conservators and the help of two gentlemen from the now formed Cambridge University Golf Club.
The course that was designed followed much of the original eighteen holes set out in 1869. This was the prelude to the establishment of Royston Golf Club on the 1st May 1892 and although there have been several changes to the course in the last thirty years, mainly to increase the length and avoid playing over a road, every effort has been made to preserve its character.
The course lies within an SSS (Site of Special Scientific Interest). Working with Natural England and the Conservators, Royston Golf Club is at the forefront of Heath management, for the benefit of all. A significant part of the Club’s involvement is the preservation of the natural features of the heath for the public good. Therfield Heath is well known for its flora especially the wild orchids. In the early spring the south facing side of the church hill is covered with the purple Anemone Pulsatilla, or Pasque Flower, which according to folklore only grew where Danish blood had been spilled – this is the largest colony of wild Pulsatilla in Europe. | 2019-04-21T19:05:12Z | http://nwhickoryplayers.org/2015/06/tom-stewart-1892-rut-iron/ |
The Civic Federation supports the Chicago Park District’s FY2019 proposed budget of $464.0 million because it continues to reduce reliance on prior year fund balance, implement savings and efficiencies and reduce the size of its workforce. Additionally, despite the Circuit Court of Cook County overturning the remaining pension reform provisions of Public Act 98-0622 in early 2018, the District will provide voluntary supplemental contributions to its pension fund in an effort to delay the fund becoming insolvent in 2027 as it is projected to do.
While the District continues to work to improve the sustainability of its pension fund by providing voluntary supplemental pension payments in FY2018 and FY2019, there is still great uncertainty surrounding the outcome of future pension reform negotiations with its labor partners following the Circuit Court ruling. The Civic Federation urges the District to continue working with its labor partners and state officials to develop a new pension funding law that is fair to taxpayers, the District and pension fund participants. Furthermore, the District should disclose its financial forecasts in its annual budget book, which will allow stakeholders to see the future impact of current financial decisions. | 2019-04-18T23:13:46Z | http://civicfederation.org/ChicagoParkDistrictFY2019 |

Despite recent protests against app-based car services such as Uber and Careem, Egypt’s government has reaffirmed that it will continue to allow the two companies to operate in the country.
In a statement, the spokesperson for the Prime Minister said that it is important to protect such companies who have offered such “unique” services which the Egyptian market needs.
The spokesperson added that an investigative committee was set up to research ways to improve traditional taxis.
The committee, headed by Minister of Justice Ahmed El-Zend, will investigate ways to ensure both services can operate side-by-side.
In a sharp rebuke to the taxi drivers, the spokesperson for the Prime Minister said that traditional taxis face a number of issues, including a deterioration in the car’s quality and faulty meters. The spokesperson condemned recent protests and blocking of roads by taxi drivers, adding that they will be dealt with by the police.
On Monday, hundreds of taxi drivers parked their cars in the central Cairo neighborhood of Mohandiseen, causing a major traffic jam. Security forces fired tear gas cannisters at the drivers in an attempt to disperse the protest.
Taxi drivers also vowed to take legal action against the app-based services, claiming that they operate illegally. However, representatives from the services have denied these allegations. Uber’s domestic representative said that the company uses rental and limousine offices with the necessary licensing and that these offices pay the necessary taxes.
The newly formed committee is expected to present its plan of action at the upcoming cabinet meeting next week. | 2019-04-22T08:39:52Z | https://egyptianstreets.com/2016/03/11/uber-careem-will-be-supported-by-government-against-taxi-protests/ |

My first sportive and longest ride for many years. A very well organised and enjoyable event. This event has certainly peaked my interest in the sportive scene and I hope to ride a few more this year. I will definitely ride this event again next year.
Second sportive and longest ride to date. Big event, well organised with good information provided prior to ride, route changes etc. Well done to all helpers/organisers. Will be back next year.
A super 100 miles based on a lovely city - worth the journey from Epsom. A long way to the first control at 42 miles. No medal or certificate after as a souvenier.
A good event only affected by a change of route due to roadworks that meant the first aid station was at 40 miles (a bit too far).
Massive improvement on last years event would like to see the course keep evolving the finish was fantastic . The wolds is a great place to ride hope the course can explore different areas each year.
Missed first feed station, saw sign that it was aproaching but must have blinked and mised it. Didn't affect my ride though. The climb up Michaelgate was very memorable for the cobbles and the spectators clapping!!
Great ride, amazing scenery, tough finnish.
Cracking event, first proper sportive, hope they are all this good. Didn't use / need the Sag wagon so unable to comment.
a good well organised event, enjoyed course and scenery, the only improvement for me would be a bit of savory food at the stations, there's only so much sugar and sweet you can eat! the sarny's at the end would have been an ideal en route alternative! other than would do again and recommend.
Outstanding fun and great routes.
It was a great event, despite the 40km of stiff headwind I loved it all. Next year I'll have to be fitter.
My First sportive, did the short route, everything was spot on, mid way feed stop was particularly good with good choice of foodstuffs. Well done to whoever made the 'wall' of sandwiches at the finish as well. Cobbled uphill finish really tests the resolve but plenty of spectators encouragement made sure i made it, will definetly be back again and recommend it to anyone.
I thoroughly enjoyed your event. I did this sportive as a challenge to see how well I had recovered from a spiral fracture of my right femur and other pelvic injuries I sustained in a crash on the 23rd October 2011. Your revised short distance proved challenging for me, but I came thru' it rejuvinated in that fact that I could still cycle and post a time of 4-07.21. Keep the 63 mile circuit, your Sportive deserves it - especially the finish up Michaelgate - Brilliant. I'll be back next year.
I did the short course both this year and last year and the feed station was much better supplied last year, although good this year, there were no hot drinks and only one part filled water urn. This was the only thing that was a little disappointing i think its a great sportive, the route is lovely and the marshalls were all very helpful.
Feed stops slightly too sugar based. Could have done with some starchy comestibles.
Pleasant people operating feed stops. Good course - very scenic.
Event could be linked in with other partners more to help promote cycling / Lincolnshire - plenty of room at start/finish venue for it. My first sportive and for me it lacked a social aspect - but it may not relate to just to this event. Enjoyed it though - thanks.
Enjoyable and well organised event. Thanks.
the only issue for this event would be sign post the route from the finnish to the race HQ / car park.
i know there was a route on the rear of the map but the last thing on my mind was reading this after the effort of getting up that hill. | 2019-04-20T16:49:53Z | http://www.cyclosport.org/event/11-May-2013/UK/the-santini-lincoln-grand-prix-sportive/ratings/page-5.html |

There has always been a great need to improve the interaction between customers and service providers for a better experience. For the process, it required to grasp out the data from separate customers and store those data in an identical place for separate customers. Causing the higher requirement of such a service, many projects have evolved in a short period of time expecting to provide assured solutions for this scenario. But due to difficulties faced in the process, most of them ended in failure. But the times have changed and new technologies have been evolved by now. “Persona” has exploited the new technology in existence and has innovated a whole new level of technology to empower solutions.
In most of the attempts exercised in order to gather data of customers ended in failure due to the inability to protect data from exposing into third parties. But after the invension of bitcoin by Satoshi Nakamoto in 2009, many of the remedies for this issue could be substituted by the concept used in Bitcoin technology. Mainly, the solution could be empowered by this decentralized network, the blockchain.
The key points associated with Bitcoin that will be crucial in presenting solution for this issue will be as follows.
Replace the middleman: the need for a moderator to bridge the two parties wont be required under the blockchain technology.
Immutability: The records recorded will be there for all eternity, because records in blockchain will not be altered in any period of time.
In order to be a part of system, or in other words, to enter the system, it requires to get verified on the identity presented. “Parsona” is presenting a well-thought and an accurate mechanism in order to prevent entry of fake and fraud elements into the community. For this process, parts from community itself are contributed.
After the complete verification process, the KYC (Know Your Customer) process will be underway. There after the data will be stored will be secured by cryptographic algorithms in the blockchain. And by most means, blockchain will be better than any other centralized application or a server. And further the data of any party will be in the hands of that very party.
The “persona” blockchain represents a Delegated Proof of Stake (DPoS). The delegates are set to 51 as the initial value. This is to support transactions in first year. The delegates are set to bear number of persona users of a value less than 1,000,000. If the value rises above that, then an update proposal will be set up and further changes will be made.
The expected interaction of users with blockchain at a low is not expected. Instead, a centralized, open source application will be unleased.
The tokens will be issued for the verifications. This will be similar to Ark. The complexity of the verification process will decide the number of token to be distributed.
Mainly as a result of persona, the business or the retail industry will be taking a great advantage. The KYC process will be making a revolutionary leap in the right direction. The process will gather all the data such as government documents, IDs and tax details concentrated to one single thread. Being a part of Parsona will enable service providers to effectively take use of this.
In the events such as payments and subscriptions, the need to provide identification details won’t be needed. This can also be effective for mass media to filter out false data by using the verifications of “Parsona”.
So as per the detailed description of “Parsona”, the project has got the potential to ride sky high and also, it is an extremely needy project for the modern world. Thus the success will be almost certain.
The token will be in sale in different phases for better distribution.
The estimation of the income will be in between values $9.3M and $14M. the income will be distributed I different sectors so that maximum profits can be generated in the time to come. It will be vested in those sectors for a period of three years.
Mainly it requires to allocate funds for the b;ockchain development, Smart bridge development, mobile and Web development and maintenance.
Investments must be made for the business development so that “Parsona” can take part in blockchain events and enter into agreements with companies that will be considering “Parsona” as a good option.
And also allocation of funds to establish a legalized notary system will be done. | 2019-04-23T11:04:35Z | https://icomapz.com/bitcoin/persona-concept-rising-from-ashes/ |
