Achillea wilhelmsii Koch. is an aromatic plants belonging to Asteraceae family that has relatively wide distribution in different parts of Iran. In this study, we compared essential oil contents and constituents in two wild populations under two different ecological conditions (Fars and Khorasan Provinces, South West and North East of Iran respectively). The blooming herbs were collected and the essential oils of the samples were extracted after drying by “Clevenger apparatus”. Essential oil constituents were determined by GC and GC-MS. Our results showed that “Khorasan” population of Achillea wilhelmsii contains more essential oils than “Fars” population (0.65 and 0.2 % v/w respectively). Thirty components of “Khorasan” population that were 96.94% of total components were determined successfully and the main components were camphore(19.06%), cembrene(10%), 1,8-cieole(8.78%), alpha pinene(8.06%) and linalool (7.47%). Thirty-two components (91.98%) of “Fars” wild population were determined and the main components were isopentyl-isovalerate(9.46%), alpha pinene(8.75%), 1,8-cineole(8.70%), eudesmol(10-epi-gama)(5.56%), spathulenol(4.94%). Cembrene(10%), Germacrene B( 5.68 %) and Sabinene(4.34%) were detected in Mashhad population but not in Shiraz population. 10-epi Gamma Eudesmole(5.65%), Benzaldehyde dimethyl acetal(4.47%) and Ionone (4.29%) were detected in Shiraz population but not in Mashhad population. In conclusion, there are differences between these two populations as far as essential oils content and constituents are concerned.

I sell healthy meat based Dog Treats. That is my mission, based on the best health outcomes for dogs. That is why I also sell the Blackdog Range which as a base has 80% meat dog treats in its range.
Very rarely can I safely push the envelope on choosing one of their treats over another but I have to say out of all the dog treats I stock, Tuna Jerky which I get from a local Melbourne Supplier and brand myself beats almost everything for nutrition and organic value other than Kangaroo meat products.
In fact at home my dog is on a raw meat offal and bones diet, and the main dog treats I will regularly give him at night time are either 100% roo based like tendons or jerky's or the outstanding 100% Tuna Jerky we stock.
People think of tuna as what you get on a can and spread on your sandwiches. It has got really trendy over the last few years, being put in tiny cans, with a few additives, a can colour change and a drastic increase in price.
Secondly it has a unique protein profile that is a perfect bio available essential amino acid supplement to your dog food man made kibble or wet food.
Tuna Jerky is also very crunch. Unlike the canned stuff, when dried tuna jerky become hard and a little bit brittle, but makes for a perfect hewing texture for all dogs. It doesn't last as long as big pieces of beef or roo, because it comes in smaller chunks, but each chunk does take a considerable time to chew, hence why I video-ed my dog eating it.
Essentially if you wanted to construct the perfect dog food or meat based dog treat, you would be hard pressed to put anything else on the list than Tuna Jerky already has.
If you are not sure if your dog likes fish (mine doesn't eat wet fish all that much (but loves dried tuna jerky) - you have the option of buying small economical packs, until you step up to the big savings bulk packs. Store correctly in your pantry and they will last many months ! | 2019-04-25T02:03:53Z | https://healthydogtreats.com.au/blog/322-tuna-jerky-healthy-dog-treats-eating-guide-by-archie-dog |

Metaphysical Remix is the name of an interior design project completed by Turin-based UdA – Architetti Associati.
Description by UdA: The project designed by Andrea Marcante and Adelaide Testa to restructure an approximately 250 m² rented apartment in Via Roma in the centre of Turin attempts to meet the needs of three generations: a father, his daughters and grandfather enjoying the rituals of everyday life under the same roof while, at the same time, having their own private spaces designed to meet their individual needs.
Marcante’s and Testa’s joint project is based on very close, constant and stimulating interaction with the clients bringing their own specific requirements in line with the setting in which this house, built from 1935-1937, is located. Having discovered that the interiors had completely lost all their original features, the perception of space and precision found in rationalist architecture and metaphysical painting from that period were inevitably sources of inspiration for the project designed by the architects.
The attempt to reproduce them in different proportions and using different materials can be seen in the plaster truss at the entrance that evokes the coffered portico in Via Roma. Similarly, the distortions in perspective of the ceiling in the dining area, created using stucco work and wallpaper, pay tribute to De Chirico’s dreamy, oneiric language and the plaster cornices framing the ceiling are reproduced in new patterns capable of identifying the specific functions below, regardless of the configurations of the walls.
The evocative force of the artist, who painted distinctive features of classical cities, most notably the empty colonnades and perspectives along roads and avenues he discovered walking around Turin, also suggests the geometric patterns of the new system of metal bars spreading through the various rooms and altering how their space is perceived: frames with glass shelves holding valuable objects, which, starting from the entrance, project into the lounge where they hold books and conceal the rear doors, not to mention the micro-architecture in the bedroom displaying a sort of re-found classicism: these historical citations are hinted at and interpreted but never philological.
A remix playing on a combination of conventional systems, design inventions and modern-day features ranging from the colour scheme (pastel and florescent shades) to designer furniture (by the likes of Prouvé, Sarfatti, Mendini and Tom Dixon) and design objects. A house/stage where all the actors move easily: bedrooms to safeguard privacy but also shared spaces designed in languages holding onto what we hold dearest and, at the same time, stimulating interaction between different generations through unusual and unexpected architectural features. | 2019-04-24T06:05:26Z | http://homeworlddesign.com/metaphysical-remix-renovation-of-apartment-in-turin/ |
What do you know–Jimmie Johnson hasn’t totally misplaced it following all.

The XQuery Development Toolkit (XQDT) is a proposed project under the Web Tools Project.
According to the Eclipse Development Process, this proposal is intended to declare the intent and scope of the XQuery Development Toolkit project as well as to gather input from the Eclipse community. You are invited to comment on and/or join the project.
XQuery was designed by XML Query working group of the W3C in order to present a convenient way to query largely (but not limited to) XML data collections and became a W3C recommendation on January 23, 2007. Currently many commercial XML Databases support XQuery as a platform to query its data. Also with the upcoming new XQuery version which is 1.1, it is believed XQuery will be the main data query technique for XML documents as well as databases. As such, it is quite useful to have an editor for XQuery with rich functionality such as syntax validation and content assistance under WTP umbrella.
XQuery Development Toolkit(XQDT) is mainly an editor built on Structured Source Editor(SSE) for easy XQuery handling. It will initially have basic text editor functions such as syntax colouring and content assistance to create and modify XQuery documents easily. Later it could be added more rich features such as content formatting, advance preferences, error tips and support to other commercial XML databases through extension points.
XQuery Development Toolkit project will be based on the project done by Buddhika Laknath for Summer of Code 2008 named "New Eclipse Plugin for XQuery" mentored by David Carver who is a committer for XSL Tools. The initial idea of the project is to fill gaps in Eclipse in regards to new XML formats and persuade more web and XML users to choose Eclipse as their native platform.
Basic goal of the project is to provide a rich text editor for XQuery developments with Eclipse. Other than that, it's our hope that this will be an incentive to draw more attention from XML users into accepting Eclipse as their main development platform.
Currently Scope is limited to providing basic text editing features for XQuery language based on Structured Source Editing components. But at the end of first phase, providing that users requesting more features into the editor, it will be moving forward to bring more rich text editing experience to users.
As always, scope can change based on community and adopter feedback as well as changes in XQuery standards.
Syntax Coloring (partially implemented) - the editor is currently aware of XQuery/Xpath 2.0 specific syntax and will color keywords accordingly. It still needs to be made configurable.
Validation for XQuery Engine specific functionality. XQilla, exist-db, and others.
Error Level control for specific errors.
This could leverage the XML:DB API to provide general support for XML:DB's that support the api.
Debugging - allows step through debugging support of XQuery scripts and possible transition between XSLT, Java, and other languages and XQuery code.
XML Perspective - general editing perspective for XML related functionality.
Database Perspective - for XML Database browsing.
It will leverage the following existing views.
XQDoc - XQDoc does for XQuery what JavaDoc does for java. It provides a platform neutral way of documenting XQuery.
XQuery Engines - Allows for the selection and installation of various XQuery Engines used during Launch Configurations.
XQuery Engine specific Validation. Leveraging the existing WTP Validation framework, allow for projects to have specific XQuery Engines used for validation.
Debugging Support - If an engine supports Debugging allow it to contribute functionality.
Budhikka Laknath - Contribution/Committer - Budhikka wrote the initial code during the Google Summer of Code Project.
XQuery already has a large user community that covers both the data side of xml as well as the document centric side of the XML. It is becoming the defacto standard for querying XML repositories and data bases, and is a good complement to other XML technologies like XSL. As more traditional database add support for XML databases having a good base set of XQuery tools to use and extend will become increasing important.
Submit code through IP review.
Start work on Validation support.
The project plans to try and follow the current WTP schedule for milestones and release candidates. The project may deviate from this schedule of problems or issues arise.
XQJ - a java API standard for talking to XML Databases using XQuery.
XQPretty - provides XPath 2.0 and XQuery parsing ability.
ANTLR V3 - used by XQPretty.
XML:DB API - a general XML Database API framework.

In a blender or food processor blend the olive oil with the next 7 ingredients until emulsified; toss the lettuce leaves with about HALF of the vinaigrette and reserve the remainder to brush on the buns.
Grill tops and bottoms of the buns on a lightly oiled grill rack (about 2 minutes per side; transfer cut-sides up to a platter or plate.
Brush the cut sides of the top halves with remaining vinaigrette.
On the bottom halves divide/mound the coated lettuce leaves.
Cut the kielbasa sausage crosswise into 4 long sections, then half each section lengthwise (you may trim off the outside skin before grilling if desired).
Grill the sausage slices on a lightly oiled grill rack about 3-4 minutes turning over once during cooking.
Arrange 2 pieces of grilled sausage over the lettuce (2 pieces per sandwich) then top with sliced tomatoes (season the tomatoes with salt and pepper).

I love your wines. Sad to say I can’t get enough if them in Vermont so tend to drink them too soon. Are there library selections available of older chards or cabs.? And can you ship to Vermont.
Where there is a will there is a way. I am sure you can find a way to get the wines in Vermont. | 2019-04-22T20:25:01Z | http://www.undergroundwineletter.com/2016/09/mount-eden-vineyards-and-domaine-eden-a-dynamic-duo/mt-eden-eden-enthusiasts-2/ |
The last two posts that I have written have talked about ideas vs. Tools. I didn’t realize it until after I had written them that I had not used the word pedagogy once. I was speaking of ideas in education, concepts, schemas for how learning works now.
At some point I would like to figure out a new word, though, for what I would like to see happen in schools. Pedagogy is too small and idea is too large. Pedagogy is all about the art and science of teaching. It is about best-practices and research in the classroom. And ideas are simply the supporting structures that allow us to carry on a conversation.
What I would like is a word that describes an understanding of connected learning, a word that explains the use of a tool for all stakeholder’s learning, not just the student’s. I want a word that keeps a network in focus at all times to show that learning is not an isolated act.
Well, I will be thinking about this for a bit, but what I would love to know what your word for what you would like to see within people in education. Do you want them to know the pedagogy? Do you want them to have a schema? Do you want them to just get a clue?
I’m interested in moving this conversation along.
That’s a tall order for a word…but what I’ve been thinking lately is framework… I want them to see the big picture and transform learning. What about Framework? Maybe it does both. A framework is the big idea that surrounds the practice, but can include the practice too. A framework is like a web of connection in someways. but maybe that’s too academic coming from “theoretical frame” maybe we’d have to create a new word…hmmmm I’m going to think about that some more. | 2019-04-26T08:14:42Z | https://learningischange.com/2009/02/08/bigger-than-pedagogy/ |

It’s a good year for apples in the Catskills. Call it the silver lining of all that rain.
All over the mountains, on the roadsides and up in the hills, wild apple trees that usually don’t make much fruit have decided to make this year a banner year. Fallen apples litter sidewalks and trails. To grab a perfectly edible snack off a branch, all you have to do is reach and grab.

“This is the first year in probably five years that there have been any wild apples up here,” says Bob Hubbell, the 77-year-old cider master at Hubbell Companies, a multi-generational family business in the hamlet of Kelly Corners in Delaware County.
Hubbell says it’s been a busy few weeks.
Commercial apple orchards are also doing well, according to Jim Allen, the President of the New York Apple Association. A wet spring and the flooding the region saw this fall may have played a role in the bumper crop.
Size isn’t everything, though. Allen says that this year’s weather conditions also made for sweet apples.
So what do you do with your apples? You can always gather them and eat them. Or you can make cider.
Bob Hubbell loads apples onto a conveyor belt on the top flood of his cider press barn. Photo by Julia Reischel. At Bob Hubbell’s, you can watch a 93-year-old one-horsepower Fairbanks engine power a tremendous chain of flywheels and wooden conveyor belts and chutes and iron gears to press 64 bushels of apples at once. The whole contraption, which was built in the 1860s, fills three stories of a red barn in the back of the Hubbell homestead property on Rte. 30 in the town of Middletown.
I followed the smell of apple juice and visited the press in action last Saturday. Just as I arrived, a truck of apples was being loaded into a conveyor belt on the top floor of the press barn. The apples rise up into a machine that crushes them, and the resulting pulp -- skins and seeds and all -- sludges down a chute into the room below, where the empty rack and cloth press is waiting.
A team of two men spread the pulp onto a cloth laid out on a rack. When the cloth is full, they tuck the edges snugly over the pulp and place a new rack on top. They slather, tuck and stack a few more layers, and then move the whole sandwich under the looming vise-like press itself.
Hubbell’s press looks like a huge cast-iron car jack sitting atop a wooden rack. Fully extended, the press exerts about 150 tons of force. A single pressing can yield 250 gallons of juice, all of which sluices down into a trough that leads to a pipe in a floor.

When the press is loaded, Bob Hubbell pulls a lever and gears began to turn. The press began to squeeze, and within a minute juice runs out through the cloth and into the trough. The room, full of apple-pressing clients, gets loud and boisterous as everyone grabs a cup and dips into the trough to taste the new juice.
Hubbell, in the meantime, keeps a sharp eye on an orange lever quivering at the top of the press. When it rises to a certain height, the press has reaached its maximum pressure: close to 150 tons. At the right moment, Hubbell turns the press off again, and everyone troops down yet another flight of stairs.
On the ground floor of the barn, two plastic cisterns collect the cider. Each is rigged with something that looks for all the world like an antique gasoline pump. (Hubbell says that it’s manufactured specially for cider.) Out come containers of all shapes and sizes, and Hubbell begins decanting.
According to one of the clients pressing apples the day I was there, the batch of apples I saw yielded about 2.5 gallons per bushel. As I left, I walked past a row of freshly-filled gallons and half-gallons. Some of it was bound for the freezer, to be thawed in six months when our abundance of apples is only a memory.
Renting the Hubbell press costs $40/hour and requries a four-bushel minimum of apples. To contact Bob Hubbell for an appointment, call 845-586-4777.

You don’t have to have a three-story cider-press to get your own cider. Other, smaller cider presses are run by hand. On October 2 at Woodchuck Lodge in Roxbury, the ancestral home of the eminent nature writer John Burroughs, a hand-cranked apple press was in service to make cider out of the Burroughs apples growing in the nearby orchard. Diane Galusha, a local writer who works at the Catskill Watershed Corporation, was on hand to take photos.
The Stekketes family watches John McDaniel run the apple press at Woodchuck Lodge in Roxbury Sunday. Looking on is Bill Birns, tour guide for the day at John Burroughs’ summer home. Photo by Diane Galusha. In Shandaken this past weekend, another hand-cranked press was the center of another gathering. Henry E. Needham had donated it to be the centerpiece of a fundraiser thrown by the Shandaken Democratic Committee. Needham's press managed to produce some tasty cider, according to event organizer and candidate for town supervisor Kathy Nolan. But cider-making has its hazards: as the cider-makers increased the pressure on the press, one of its supporting wooden legs gave up the ghost, ending the day’s pressing early.
If you want to try your hand at making your own cider, you don’t even need a press. If you have a food processor or a blender, you can be in business, according to this article from Cornell Cooperative Extension.
If you’re concerned about bacteria, pick the fruit off the trees and avoid apples that have already fallen. (They’re more likely to have been stepped on or worse.) Avoid rotten apples for obvious reasons. | 2019-04-25T04:08:32Z | http://www.watershedpost.com/2011/banner-year-apples |

The following is an excerpt from my book “God Never Fails.” This section is talking about the time God taught me not to ask why.
My sister’s devastating words were on the other end of that phone call. Kiersten was my beloved niece who was just four years old. During the year that followed, my sister and family lived in the vicious cycle of that big “C” world.
Since my husband and I lived 98 miles from my family, we watched and suffered with them from a distance as their daughter fought for her life. We watched as she lost her hair and grew new, dark, curly hair in its place. We watched, from afar, as that sweet angelic child went through painful treatments far from home. I watched while she and her mother lived in hospitals and Ronald McDonald houses for weeks at a time, leaving the other three children with our parents. Kiersten’s father divided his time between work, home chores, and staying with his daughter at the hospital.
We heard how little “Ki-Ki” braved the storm that lay before her. One time she stood up front in her church and sang “Jesus Loves Me” all by herself before leaving for her bone marrow transplant. Did she know it would be her last time in her beloved church? A few weeks later, we listened to my sister telling us that the child was suffering inhumanly while her body fought against itself, rejecting the transplant. Yet, we were in awe to also hear how she and her parents continued to sing “Jesus Loves Me” and other favorite songs in the midst of that suffering.
Late one night, we received a call from my sister asking us to “pray for God to take Kiersten home.” The next morning she was in her Savior’s arms.
Instantly, the Bible verse Proverbs 3: 5: “Lean not unto thine own understanding …” became very clear to me. “Your mind is too finite,” he whispered in my heart. I fully understood then, as I do now, that our finite, small minds, much more like an ant’s brain compared to God’s, simply can’t understand the events our God has planned. We must only trust because we never could understand even if he were to tell us the “why” of every situation.
It is very natural for us to wonder why things happen to us or our loved ones. There is nothing wrong in asking this. However, we need to be careful to trust our Lord that although in most circumstances God’s ways just do not make sense to us, He makes no mistakes. The verse above reads, “Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.” Isaiah 55:8 & 9 says, “For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the Lord. For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts.” God loves us more than we could ever imagine. He can only do good.
When my husband went home to be with His Lord, I never asked God why. I had settled that issue so many years ago with the death of little “Ki-Ki,” and I never felt the need to ask that question again. We all need to find peace in our hearts that we can trust the Lord. Then we can hold His hand with the trust and faith of a child. It is then that God can lead us on the uncertain and new paths that lie before us. | 2019-04-24T09:52:37Z | https://sorrowtovictory.wordpress.com/category/why/ |
Watching foreign-language movies can be a great asset to the language learner. Not only do they contain an enormous amount of dialogue produced by native speakers, but they also introduce the viewer to several new slang expressions, and shed insight on the culture which the movie belongs to. And with an increasing number of shows and movies appearing online on YouTube and Netflix, it’s easier than ever to access new media.
Still, if you’re just passively watching films in a different language, you’re not fully taking advantage of the amazing resource that these movies offer you. Indeed, with a little concerted effort, you can transform your television (or computer) into one of the most valuable language-learning tools out there. Here’s how.
Language is an inherently social activity, and it’s one that’s best done with friends. Luckily, there are thousands of like-minded language learners out there who would be more than happy to watch and discuss a movie with you. So sign up for a language exchange website like Gamelingu and find a conversation partner! This can be a native speaker in the language you’re learning, or even a non-native speaker who’s learning it too – anyone who you’ll be able to discuss it with later.
Once you’ve found a buddy, it’s time to select a film that you both want to watch in your language of study. Make sure it’s something you’re genuinely interested in, as you’ll be watching it more than once!
When you’ve selected a movie, it’s time to get cracking. The first time around, just watch the movie in peace – later, we’ll start working harder. This will give you a general idea of what’s going on with the movie, and will acquaint you with the characters and their manners of speaking. If you can find a version with subtitles (in the target language), it would be ideal, so if you get lost in the dialogue, you can still follow along.
You’ve finished the movie – congratulations! Now, the real work begins. First, go to the Internet Movie Script Database (http://www.imsdb.com/) and download the movie’s script (if it’s not on IMSDB, try Googling it; many scripts are available for free online). As you go through the script, highlight the parts that you don’t understand, and study them. Check out dictionaries or online forums when necessary, and of course feel free to consult with your conversation partner if a word or phrase really has you stuck.
If the script isn’t available online, watch the film again with subtitles, and write down the parts that you don’t understand. The important part is that you write down unfamiliar words and expressions and study them until you’re able to understand all of the dialogue in the movie.
You’ve finished the real hard work – pat yourself on the back! Depending on your level, at this point you may done quite extensive research about all the new words and phrases that you encountered in the movie.
Now, it’s time to say goodbye to your training wheels: no more subtitiles! By now, you have a good sense of the plot and the dialogue, and you’ll be surprised by how well you understand the script even without the aid of subtitles. Feel free to consult your notes if you miss something, but make an effort to rely on them as little as possible: focus on understanding the dialogue by yourself.
Feel free to watch the movie as many times as you’d like, until you’ve really learned everything (or until you get bored)!
You’re done – congratulations! Here comes the fun part: find your friend and chat about what you just watched. This will give you a chance not only to have an interesting discussion about the movie, but also to use some of the new words and phrases that you’ve learned along the way. After you’ve had a lively discussion, it’s time to pick another foreign-language movie!
You’ll be surprised at how many new words and phrases you can learn from studying just a single movie. If you follow these steps, you’ll notice a marked increase in your language skills after just a few films. Readers: What are your favorite foreign-language movies? What do you do to remember the dialogue you hear in films? Let us know – leave a comment!

If you thought all a human statue does is stand still, think again. These incredible entertainers are walking, (or standing!), works of art with professional body paint and make up to make them look totally realistic. Human statues will pose perfectly still, giving them the appearance of a real statue, and then they will surprise your guests by moving. But human statues are much more than that and can incorporate mime routines and comedy into their performance. They also include a high level of spectator interaction, making them loads of fun.
Why hire a human statue for my event?
If you’re looking for something sophisticated and intelligent, but also fun and light-hearted, for your event, human statues are what you need. These guys have spent years perfecting their act and practising the art of being a statue. They are professional performers and also like to fool with their audience and make everyone laugh. Your guests will be amazed, and also surprised, at the high standard of talent involved, and they won’t believe it when the ‘statue’ moves! Perfect for events where you want something that can be positioned anywhere in the room or outdoor space to entertain your guests as they walk around. | 2019-04-26T05:24:22Z | https://www.entertain-ment.co.uk/wedding-entertainment/human-statue |

I don’t know if it’s that I’m now sat on a train for too long each day and it’s allowing me to think too much, or that I’m just fast approaching that age where you turn grumpy, but recently I’ve started to think that life is too short.
Just because you can do something doesn’t mean that you should do something.
This is something that I am more and more coming to appreciate.
As a web developer, and all round geek, I know far too many ways to skin a cat (figuratively speaking). I’m also capable of doing anything web related, and up until recently I have been. The phrase above very much applies to me, and it has taken me a while to appreciate it.
My skill set lies very clearly in the coding of web applications and the functionality they offer. I can do the visual side of things, but I’ll never win any awards for it. I’m no designer. I’m envious of people who can, I just don’t have that spark.
I can tell the difference between bad UI and good UI, and I can create an Ok UI, but I will never create a great UI.
Anyway, I digress. My big revelation came when i was working on a WordPress installation for a family member. It’s cheaper for me in the long run to buy a theme then create one from scratch. Especially when there are such marketplaces as elegant themes, WooThemes, and themeforest. This time saved can then be spent with my family and not sat in the office working.
These themes are usually < $40, and are to a standard that I could never meet. The time saved (many many hours) cost so much more than the money I have to pay for the theme.
I’m notoriously tight, and won’t spend money unless I have to. My wife constantly makes fun of me for it. For many years I refused to buy an off the shelf theme as I had to pay for them. If I just put my hand in my pocket I would save hours of my time which costs much more than the cost of the theme. I can then spend my time working on the functionality and deliver the site sooner.
Another thing that is worth thinking about when making this decision between buy or build, is the professionalism that will be gained from buying a service and not doing it yourself. Say you’re building an app; you’ll need an icon. You might have Photoshop on your computer, but there is significant skill involved in icon design. Buying an icon for a small amount may be the difference between your app going viral (it wont be) and being lost in the thousands of apps out there. People’s first impressions are priceless and a dodgy looking icon may put them off. I know it does me.
This revelation extends beyond the world of the web. How much does your time cost? It’s worth me paying a gardener to come in and now my garden than it is for me to do it. They will do a more professional job, in a shorter amount of time, and for less money than it would cost me if I did it myself.
This doesn’t mean that you should get someone in, or pay for everything and not do it yourself. If you enjoy doing the task, and it gives you pleasure, then it is most likely worth your time to do it yourself. | 2019-04-25T20:53:42Z | https://ghosty.co.uk/tag/time/ |

Some info on the new menu at Saba and Saba To Go!
I've been hearing good things about Saba and Saba To Go recently on the Twitter machine. They've recently launched a "healthy" menu and over the next few weeks I'll be popping in for a taste. The healthy options have low calorie dishes in gluten free, paleo, and low glycemic options.
Saba and Saba To Go has all your healthy needs covered with naturally fresh, delicious and nutritious food served in the popular Clarendon eatery or delivered straight to your door. Both Saba and Saba To Go have partnered with Erika Doolan of Nutrition Ireland to create a menu, which denotes calorie content and dietary options including coeliac and paleo dishes.
The menus have been redesigned with symbols added to highlight the calorie content. Saba Slim (SS) represents dishes that contain less than 250 calories while Saba Light (SL) signifies that a portion is less than 400 calories.
Authentic recipes created by Executive Chef Taweesak Trakoolwattana are naturally packed with nutritious ingredients, superfoods and antioxidant’s which are a powerful natural medicine. The food at both Saba and Saba To Go is naturally dairy free with a wide range of dishes being gluten free. If you see a dish that is not gluten free, just ask as most dishes can be modified to cater for your needs.
Saba To Go has also added a Paleo friendly section to the menu with the creation of two new Paleo dishes, ‘The Green Machine’ and ‘The Caveman.’ Paleo is a dairy free, wheat free, soya free, and legume free healthy eating plan which has become increasingly popular in Ireland.
All Saba meals are low glycemic load, meaning they will keep you fuller for longer and will not spike your insulin. Saba and Saba To Go also offer the choice of brown rice to reduce the overall glycemic load. All of the vegetables, herbs and spices used are fresh and retain their goodness as the cooking methods hold onto the most amounts of nutrients possible.
Saba opens from 12pm until late, seven days a week and is located on 26-28 Clarendon Street, Dublin 2. For bookings Tel: +353-1-6792000 or log onto www.sabadublin.com.
Let us know what on you think on Facebook and Twitter. | 2019-04-21T22:16:50Z | http://dublinglutenfree.blogspot.com/2014/03/press-release-for-saba.html |

Mealtimes are identified as an important learning environment where socialisation and language development takes place. Caregivers can facilitate the structure of a child's learning in the mealtime setting. The aim of this study was to gain an understanding about the nature of communication in a normal population during mealtimes. This is important to help understanding about the nature of communication and interaction in children with disabilities during mealtimes. Participants were six typically developing preschool children aged from 8 months to 3;05 years. Caregivers of the children supported their child having a typical meal at home. Each mother–child dyad was video-recorded by the researchers during a typical meal for up to 30 minutes. Each recording was transcribed by the researchers, and specific communicative features were counted and coded; caregiver comments about appropriate mealtime behaviour, child verbal and nonverbal initiation, caregiver questions and comments about meal enjoyment, caregiver praise of child, and caregiver repetition to coax feeding. A caregiver questionnaire was also completed to obtain information about the child's feeding, any early history of feeding difficulties and typical mealtime routine. The results indicated that the most considerable difference were between the dyads who had reported early feeding difficulties and those who had not reported any. Carers who supported children who had a history of early feeding difficulties used more language to manage and guide the child's behaviour during the mealtime. Caregivers who reported early feeding difficulties appeared to be more concerned with how their child was presenting at the meal (i.e., appropriate behaviour and meal enjoyment). This information has important implications for supporting children with complex needs during mealtimes. | 2019-04-21T03:14:06Z | http://openaccess.city.ac.uk/3346/ |

Buying a prom dress is an exciting, even iconic activity for some teens, but for Faith Newsome it was something much more meaningful. At 16, Sanford, North Carolina, native Newsome had obesity and had had obesity for most of her life. But that changed the summer before her junior year in high school when she underwent bariatric bypass surgery at Duke.
Newsome was the youngest patient and only the second teen to have weight-loss surgery at Duke back in 2014. Like other adolescents with obesity, she had experienced her first two years of high school watching her friends enjoy activities most teens take for granted.
Weight-loss surgery doesn’t just happen by calling for an appointment and showing up for surgery. Newsome participated in the Healthy Lifestyles Program at Duke, a program that aims to help children achieve a healthier lifestyle to address weight-related health problems.
Sarah Armstrong, MD, associate professor of pediatrics and population health sciences, started the Healthy Lifestyles Program in 2006, motivated in part by her early career experiences in pediatric primary care in Baltimore. “I knew how to deal with ear infections and colds, but I didn’t know what to do with the obesity I kept seeing,” she says. She started researching the issue and eventually came to Duke to start a childhood obesity program.
“We get asked what causes childhood obesity, and the answer is that there is not one smoking gun,” she says. “In the majority of cases, it is not a single gene that causes obesity.” According to Armstrong, evidence suggests some epigenetic modifications happen (the mechanism in which genes may be switched on or off), as well as environmental factors and factors related to the gut microbiome.
As a volunteer with Bull City Fit, Newsome serves as a source of encouragement for kids, playing alongside them during sports.
Newsome gives back to others by working with kids in the community-based wellness program Bull City Fit.
Newsome demonstrates proper stretching techniques at Bull City Fit.
Adolescent patients may be treated with lifestyle modifications, specific dietary protocols, or medication to help manage weight. And for the last six years, there has been the option of surgery at Duke as safe protocols of adult surgery have been adapted for youth.
Surgery has been increasing. From one or two a year early on, there are 15 to 20 adolescent patients in the surgical pipeline at Duke now, according to Armstrong. The procedures have gotten better, and a new technique, the vertical sleeve, has been introduced, so it’s much less expensive and has fewer side effects. Armstrong also advocates with insurance companies to make surgery even more widely available.
“We developed a screening process that we felt was safe and comprehensive to make sure the child is physically and emotionally ready for the procedure,” says Armstrong. Families are required to work with them six months prior to surgery to demonstrate the ability to make good lifestyle and dietary choices and adhere to them. While there is no age requirement, maturity is key.
Newsome appreciated the process. “When you’re younger, there’s a little bit of naivety that you’re going to have the surgery and then you’ll be just like your friends and won’t have to worry ever again, but that is the opposite of what happens. You are committing to lifelong lifestyle eating habits.
So Newsome spent the summer at the Healthy Lifestyles Clinic developing an adolescent patient support and advocacy program. She talked to adolescent medicine specialists about how their patients would best benefit from a program and has also been working with kids at Bull City Fit, the community outreach arm of the Healthy Lifestyles Clinic that provides free fitness and nutrition programming for patients and their families.
“I had an unbelievable summer full of growth and opportunity,” says Newsome. “I met so many people who have been excited about what I’m doing.” She has presented to local and even national obesity research and support groups.
Newsome’s dream as a junior psychology and journalism double major at UNC-Chapel Hill is to partner with physicians and dieticians to treat adolescent obesity. She could have gone off to college and never mentioned her weight-loss surgery, but she feels she has a unique experience to share.
“I’m trying to be outspoken in the hope that somebody will feel a little less alone. I know childhood obesity is rampant in America, but I wasn’t really friends with anybody else who dealt with weight issues, so it was really isolating,” she says. “What I’m trying to do with this advocacy group is to give that sense that you’re not alone.
“After surgery, I felt like I finally had the freedom to be myself because there were so many things I had held myself back from.
Bull City Fit, a partnership between Durham Parks and Recreation and the Duke Children's Healthy Lifestyles Program, is a community-based wellness program located in Durham, NC that offers free evening and weekend activity sessions that encourage and promote active living. The program offers a safe and fun environment to put into practice the lifestyle modifications that are necessary to treat childhood obesity and maintain a healthy lifestyle. The Healthy Lifestyles Program is a family-based intervention for children with a body mass index (BMI) over the 95th percentile. The program's team of physicians, dieticians, physical therapists, and behavioral specialists uses treatment focused on lifestyle modification to address their patients' weight-related health problems. | 2019-04-22T14:17:55Z | https://giving.dukechildrens.org/stories/faiths-story |

This article discusses the pharmacological uses of lithium salts; for information on the chemistry of individual lithium salts, see Category:Lithium compounds.
Lithium in pharmacology refers to use of the lithium ion, Li+, as a drug. A number of chemical salts of lithium are used medically as mood stabilizing drug, primarily in the treatment of bipolar disorder, where they have a role in the treatment of depression and particularly of mania, both acutely and in the long term. As a mood stabilizer, lithium is probably more effective in preventing mania than depression, and may reduce the risk of suicide.[How to reference and link to summary or text] In depression alone (unipolar disorder) lithium can be used to augment other antidepressants. Lithium carbonate (Li2CO3), sold under several trade names, is the most commonly prescribed, whilst the citrate salt lithium citrate (Li3C6H5O7), the sulfate salt lithium sulfate (Li2SO4, sold as Lithionit), aspartate and the orotate salt lithium orotate are alternatives.
Upon ingestion, lithium becomes widely distributed in the central nervous system and interacts with a number of neurotransmitters and receptors, decreasing norepinephrine release and increasing serotonin synthesis.
However, by the turn of the century, the use of lithium in this way died out and was seemingly forgotten. This was also due to the reluctance of the pharmaceutical industry to invest in a drug that could not be patented. The use of lithium salts to treat mania was rediscovered by the Australian psychiatrist John Cade in 1949, who proposed lithium as a tranquilizer, and soon succeeded in controlling mania in chronically hospitalized patients. This was one of the first successful applications of a drug to treat mental illness, and it opened the door for the development of medicines for other mental problems in the next decades.
The rest of the world was slow to adopt this revolutionary treatment, largely because of deaths which resulted from even relatively minor overdosing, and from use of lithium chloride as a substitute for table salt. Largely through the research and other efforts of Denmark's Mogens Schou in Europe, and Samuel Gershon in the U.S., this resistance was slowly overcome. The application of lithium for manic illness was approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration in 1970.
Lithium treatment is used to treat mania in bipolar disorder. Initially, lithium is often used in conjunction with antipsychotic drugs as it can take up to a week for lithium to have an effect. Lithium is also used as prophylaxis for depression and mania in bipolar disorder. Also, it is sometimes used for other disorders, like cycloid psychosis, unipolar depression, migraine and others. It is sometimes used as an "augmenting" agent, to increase the benefits of standard drugs used for unipolar depression. Lithium treatment was previously considered to be unsuitable for children, however more recent studies show its effectiveness for treatment of early-onset bipolar disorder in children as young as eight. The required dosage (15-20mg per kg of body weight) is slightly less than the toxic level, requiring blood levels of lithium to be monitored closely during treatment. In order to prescribe the correct dosage, the patient's entire medical history, both physical and psychological, is sometimes taken into consideration. Blood tests are carried out every 3 months to ensure the level of lithium is appropriate and to prevent toxicity, along with kidney and thyroid tests.
Those who use lithium should receive regular (generally monthly once stable) blood tests and should monitor thyroid function annually and kidney function every three to six months for abnormalities. As it interferes with the regulation of sodium and water levels in the body, lithium can cause dehydration. Dehydration, which is compounded by heat, can result in increasing lithium levels.
High doses of haloperidol, fluphenazine, or flupenthixol may be hazardous when used with lithium; irreversible toxic encephalopathy has been reported.
Lithium salts have a narrow therapeutic/toxic ratio and should therefore not be prescribed unless facilities for monitoring plasma concentrations are available. Patients should be carefully selected. Doses are adjusted to achieve plasma concentrations of 0.6 to 1.2mmol Li+/litre (lower end of the range for maintenance therapy and elderly patients, higher end for pediatric patients) on samples taken 12 hours after the preceding dose. Overdosage, usually with plasma concentrations over 1.5mmol Li+/litre, may be fatal and toxic effects include tremor, ataxia, dysarthria, nystagmus, renal impairment, and convulsions. If these potentially hazardous signs occur, treatment should be stopped, plasma lithium concentrations redetermined, and steps taken to reverse lithium toxicity. The most common side effects end up being an overall dazed feeling and a fine hand tremor. These side effects are generally present during the length of the treatment but can sometimes disappear in certain patients. Other common side effects such as nausea and headache, can be generally remedied by a higher intake of water. Lithium unbalances electrolytes; to counteract this, increased water intake is suggested.
Lithium toxicity is compounded by sodium depletion. Concurrent use of diuretics that inhibit the uptake of sodium by the distal tubule (e.g. thiazides) is hazardous and should be avoided. In mild cases withdrawal of lithium and administration of generous amounts of sodium and fluid will reverse the toxicity. Plasma concentrations in excess of 2.5 mmol Li+/litre are usually associated with serious toxicity requiring emergency treatment. When toxic concentrations are reached there may be a delay of 1 or 2 days before maximum toxicity occurs.
In long-term use, therapeutic concentrations of lithium have been thought to cause histological and functional changes in the kidney. The significance of such changes is not clear but is of sufficient concern to discourage long-term use of lithium unless it is definitely indicated. Doctors may change a bipolar patient's medication from lithium to another mood stabilizing drug, such as Depakote (valproic acid), if problems with the kidneys arise. An important potential consequence of long-term lithium usage is the development of renal diabetes insipidus (inability to concentrate urine). Patients should therefore be maintained on lithium treatment after 3-5 years only if, on assessment, benefit persists. Conventional and sustained-release tablets are available. Preparations vary widely in bioavailability, and a change in the formulation used requires the same precautions as initiation of treatment. There are few reasons to prefer any one simple salt of lithium; the carbonate has been the more widely used, but the citrate is also available.
The precise mechanism of action of Li+ as a mood-stabilizing agent is currently unknown. It is possible that Li+ produces its effects by interacting with the transport of monovalent or divalent cations in neurons. However, because it is a poor substrate at the sodium pump, it cannot maintain a membrane potential and only sustains a small gradient across biological membranes. Yet Li+ is similar enough to Na+ in that under experimental conditions, Li+ can replace Na+ for production of a single action potential in neurons.
Recent research suggests three different mechanisms which may act together to deliver the mood-stabilizing effect of this ion . An increasing number of scientists have come to the conclusion that the excitatory neurotransmitter glutamate is the key factor in understanding how lithium works. Other mood stabilizers such as valproate and lamotrigine exert influence over glutamate, suggesting a possible biological explanation for mania.[How to reference and link to summary or text] The other mechanisms by which lithium might help to regulate mood include the alteration of gene expression and the non-competitive inhibition of an enzyme called inositol monophosphatase.
Unlike other psychoactive drugs, Li+ produces no obvious psychotropic effects (such as euphoria) in normal individuals at therapeutic concentrations.
Dr. Klein and his colleagues at the University of Pennsylvania discovered in 1996 that lithium ion deactivates the GSK-3B enzyme. The regulation of GSK-3B by lithium may affect the circadian clock -- and recent research (Feb 2006) seems to support this conclusion. When GSK-3B is activated, the protein Bmal1 is unable to reset the "master clock" inside the brain; as a result, the body's natural cycle is disrupted. When the cycle is disrupted, the routine schedules of many functions (metabolism, sleep, body temperature) are disturbed. Lithium may thus restore normal brain function after it is disrupted in some people. The complete mechanism by which it treats mood disorders remains a mystery.
Lithium is much less teratogenic than previously thought, though it does double the likelihood of Ebstein's anomaly (a cardiac defect), occurring at 0.1% when used during the first trimester of pregnancy.
There have also been long term effects on the kidney, including diabetes insipidus with secondary distortion of bladder and urinary tract. Animal studies show long-term physical and behavioural effects extending beyond the first generation.
As with many other drugs, songs have been written about its effects, "Lithium Sunset" by Sting, and "Lithium" by Nirvana are some examples. The song "Lithium" by Evanescence, though titled like the drug, has been stated to be a metaphor about numbness and happiness.
Hundreds of soft drinks included lithium salts or lithia water (naturally occurring mineral waters with higher lithium amounts). An early version of Coca Cola available in pharmacies' soda fountains called Lithia Coke was a mixture of Coca Cola syrup and lithia water. The soft drink 7 Up, originally named "Bib-Label Lithiated Lemon-Lime Soda", contained lithium citrate until it was reformulated in 1950. Additionally, Lithia light beer was brewed at the West Bend Lithia Company in Wisconsin.
All of these were forced to remove lithium in 1948. The amount of lithium in any of the commercially available soft drinks was hundreds of times less than a minimum psychiatric dose, but the ban didn't make any distinctions on that basis.

At Cocoa Life, we are leading the way in preserving these forests. I’m proud to announce that today Mondelēz International signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the Ministry of Environment of Côte d’Ivoire. The first partnership of this scale, this agreement sets forth a collaboration to protect forests in the cocoa supply chain.
Starting in the Nawa region, which borders the precious Taï National Park, Cocoa Life will work jointly with the Ministry of Environment to map cocoa farms. This information will help us to identify and monitor areas that are at risk for deforestation and to create land-use plans.
At the same time, we will engage communities and help farmers increase productivity. Cocoa Life provides training in good agricultural practices and access to high-quality seedlings and inputs, such as pesticides and fertilizer. By growing more cocoa on less space, farmers will have land for other crops and reforestation. To diversify and protect the forest canopy, we will supply seedlings for farmers to plant on their farms.
This work is part of the U.N.’s REDD+ (Reducing Emissions from Deforestation and Forest Degradation in Developing Countries) program in Côte d’Ivoire, supported by the World Bank. Cote d’Ivoire’s bold goal is zero-net deforestation in cocoa. The hope is that our experience will be applied to other origin countries. In fact, we’re currently exploring expanding this REDD+ partnership in Ghana, having signed a letter of intent with the United Nations Development Programme and the country’s forestry commission.
These efforts are critical, because deforestation is a driver of climate change. We’re already witnessing how these effects negatively impact cocoa-farming communities. Droughts and less rainfall lead to smaller cocoa beans and lower yields, reducing farmer incomes. Based on our growing concern, we are stepping up our environmental focus to protect forests and help farmers become resilient. For example, we provide farmers with access to drought-tolerant seedlings and will also explore innovative financial instruments to incentivize forest-friendly cocoa production.
Today, we are publishing a position paper detailing our three-tiered strategy: produce, protect, and people. Our focus involves helping farmers and cocoa-growing communities protect their own natural resources. Not only does this benefit the environment, but it also promotes other issues in cocoa-growing communities, such as education and healthcare. This is why we’re establishing climate change as a cross-cutting theme across our five pillars. By empowering the community, we can create lasting change. | 2019-04-24T09:02:06Z | https://www.cocoalife.org/progress/protecting-forests-and-combating-climate-change |
It's infuriating. I keep finding people's stolen work on sites like Etsy when looking for mine and it seems impossible to find anyone's contact details to let them know so they can send a simple DMCA and stop someone profiting off their work.
I've wasted ages today googling around trying desperately to find contact details.
Is there a way to easily PM someone on SS for example from their portfolio? I think you can if you find them on the forum, or am I wrong? It's a nightmare.
no, I don't think so, for a couple of reasons.
a) There would be spammers spamming the crap out of contributors ('buy viagra!', etc).
c) and kind of along the same lines of b, the sites want the contributors to depend on the sites, not realize they can do things on their own (i.e., custom deals/cheaper prices/etc).
There are ways (although a lot of work) to find contributors if they have their own independent site, but not sure if it is worth the effort for you. Noble that you would want to contact them - but not that easy.
Thanks, I know why really it's just super frustrating. Do you know which sites will let me PM a contributor? I couldn't find a way on AS/FL or SS, am I missing something?
Dreamstime do or at least did as I've had a few messages in the past.
I am in the same boat - finding so many stolen images these days and I think the only way to alert folks is to post them in forums like these.
Yay, found them on DT, still can't work out how to message them!!!
Any idea anyone? there's no obvious link to message from a profile page.
Yes it's not easy but you can leave a comment on one of their photos. Once you're on the photo page, click on the 3 dots on the right near extended licences. It will appear in the comments section on their dashboard.
The agencies do not want side deals either, I got contacted about a clip someone saw on SS through another site I shoot video on. They wanted a different license so I agreed on a price and did it. I would love to be able to work those deals more!

In this July 8, 2015, file photo, people pass by the main gate to Paramount Pictures on Melrose Avenue in Los Angeles.
After delaying its airing in the aftermath of February's Florida high school shooting, Paramount Network is permanently scrapping "Heathers."
Representatives from parent company Viacom confirmed Saturday that the TV reboot of the 1988 movie black comedy about high-school murder and suicide will not air on Paramount or any other Viacom properties.
Viacom says the subject matter is not suitable in the current environment for channels it is attempting to make youth-oriented, but that it is open to the possibility of selling the anthology series to a more fitting outlet.
The show based on the film starring Winona Ryder and Christian Slater had been set to premiere in March, but was delayed after the Parkland, Florida shooting that left 17 dead.
The move was first reported by The Hollywood Reporter. | 2019-04-25T02:16:13Z | https://www.nbcnewyork.com/entertainment/entertainment-news/Paramount-Scraps-Airing-Heathers-Citing-School-Violence-484400181.html |

Last year the Tory Mayor of London attacked the Irish community and Saint Patrick's Day celebrations there, describing them as left wing crap.This year a whistleblower inside MI5's multi-million pound palace in Hollywood, has revealed that Martin Corey, who has been locked up for almost three years without trial, charge or explanation of length of sentence, has in fact been indefinitely interned, for wearing a green tie at an Irish parade in Bodenstown. Martin and his family, have for almost three years been totally perplexed and confused, as to why he is imprisoned.
As another Irishman was arrested yesterday in Derry, for participating in an Easter commemoration and a leading orange loyalist Willie Frazer, who organized ongoing serious rioting and possession of a prohibited weapon, was released from Maghaberry jail, sitting in the public gallery, were Stormont loyalist Minister Danny Kennedy, DUP loyalist MLA William Irwin and TUV loyalist leader Jim Allister, Irish people today are questioning, who represents the Irish people and where is the power sharing agreed, in the apparently now defunct peace process.
Since the arrival of the Tories to power in Britain, heavily subsidized in the election by Britain's Industrial-War complex, they appear hell bent in restarting their highly profitable 40 year war on the Irish people again, despite the much touted Peace Process.Item by item, the Tories have dismantled almost every point of agreement in the process.Unlike war, there simply is no dividend or money in peace for the Tories, who in the space of a few short years in power have besides their existing invasions of Iraq and Afghanistan, have unofficially invaded Libya, Mali and Syria, while Cameron, as the unofficial salesman for Britain's Industrial-War complex, has been touting business all over North Africa and the Middle-east.
The injustice of indefinite internment without trial for wearing green or attending St Patrick's Day like parades in British Occupied Ireland, is the type of perpetuated racist discourse and discrimination, that started a forty year war by the British Government on ordinary Irish people in their own land. What further aggravates their mentored sectarianism, is the British sowing seeds of division and perceived discrimination to enable the continuation, of their poisonous divide and rule policies, along with their British state terrorism of liquidating lawyers, journalists or peace activists who dare hold them to account. Internment was the catalyst last time that started the war and interning Marian Price, a veteran icon of Irish resistance to British repression, was surely calculated by the Tories to prosuce a reaction and another profitable war for the Tory financiers.
The whistleblower from MI5's multimillion Palace in Hollywood, like Buckingham Palace, paid for by British taxpayers, further revealed, that Viceroyal Villiers, who rules her queendom of British Occupied Ireland, for the Queen of England, plans to intern those attending St Patrick's Day parades who wear too much green.. Apparently Viceroyal Villiers, who is not elected, but overrules the six county Stormont mental masturbation chamber, inherited her position of overlordess, from her royal family ancestor the Dishonourable Edward Ernest Villiers, who presided as Viceroyal, over the Great Irish Holocaust, that disappeared over 6 and a quarter million Irish people, numbers even worse than Hitler's holocaust. The source also revealed that Her Majesty the Viceroyal, also plans to extradite 'Green Crap'as the Tories refer to Irish-Americans from both the USA and the Irish scum state, who parade and flaunt green, upsetting Anglo-Saxon gentry sensibilities or west Brit blue blood on this Patrick's Day or in the future.
While "Free Willie' has been liberated yesterday for St Patricks Day 2013, which is seen by those who wish to remain sane as black comedy in the British gulag, the serious part of the equation, is that Marian Price and Martin Corey will be interned, almost two and three years respectively, without trial, contrary to all domestic and international human rights standards. The whistleblower has also revealed, that the real reason, is that both are a "security risk" citing allegations that they might have some "dissident republican beliefs' because they often wear green.
Marian and Martin's legal teams have described this "evidence" as "closed material". The secrecy surrounding the reasons, lack detail on any evidence making it virtualluy impossible to defend their clients.. They are in essence as former political prisoners, prior to the peace process, being held up as an example, in the same sense as those formerly wearing green, were hung up from very high scaffolds by the British Government, who are guilty of blatant racism and what is in effect illegal. kidnap.
There are three primary celebrations every year that genuine Irish people participate in, which includes Government ministers of Ireland, since the foundation of the southern free state. They are traditional St Patrick's Day parades, Easter parades and Bodenstown. Apparently Martin Corey and Marian Price were photographed by the British, at one of these ceremonies. Marian spontaneously held up a piece of paper, because of a gust of wind, while she was unaware of the contents at an Easter Commemoration. Martin Corey apparently wore a green tie at one commemoration in Bodenstown. These are hardly offences where two elderly people should die interned indefinitely by the British government.
Marian Price and Martin Corey are simply being held up as as an example to anyone Irish, who dares wear green or challenge British occupation or brutal repression in Ireland. With the end of the 800 year old Magna Carta and elimination of Habeas Corpus by Britain, the Hollywood whislteblower revealed, that Her Viceroyalness is now looking at re-introducing the Penal Laws in Ireland with some sort of an understanding with the new Pope Frankie, who plans to go to Hollywood. . | 2019-04-19T16:19:55Z | http://irishblog-brianclarkenuj.blogspot.com/2013/03/paddys-day-free-ireland-is-green-ireland.html |
I was wondering if anyone qualified would be interested in making a logo for my car forum? The budget would be $50.

Bravo Concealment has only been around for a few years, but the Alamo, Texas company has already made quite a name for itself. The holster industry is not an easy one, especially with so many established names in the business. Nevertheless, the Bravo team believed they could deliver high-quality Kydex holsters to shooters all over the world. Their products begin and end with cutting-edge technology, including CNC-machining, laser-integrated measuring arms, and computer-aided design software. Together, these factors help make Bravo Concealment Holsters some of the most popular and best-selling holsters on the market.
When you carry a Bravo holster, you can be sure you have a product you can trust. In addition to their unlimited lifetime warranty and American-made construction, these holsters have already been recognized by many law enforcement agencies and U.S. Military personnel. Before we begin, I want to thank Bravo for collaborating with us here at Gunivore. The folks behind the name are truly genuine and professional people.
Bravo’s Kydex holsters are some of the most popular on the market and reasonably so. In addition to their affordable prices, these holsters were meticulously crafted to ensure safe and effective carrying. As we mentioned earlier, these holsters are propelled by their innovative design and construction, but there’s so much more. I’ve been carrying my Smith & Wesson M&P 9 Compact in the Bravo Torsion IWB Kydex Holster for over two weeks now. The first thing I noticed was how closely my gun was riding to my body. The Torsion was built with a unique 10-degree cant that is really something that has to be experienced to be believed. Although I Appendix Carry mostly, I tried a few other spots and was comfortable in each one. It may not be the most modular holster out there, but it doesn’t have to be.
Maximum achievement is important to me, especially because there are times when you want to keep a low profile. I can safely say that the Torsion holster made my gun practically disappear in normal street clothes. Impressively, it never felt like it was digging into me or anything. As far as Kydex holsters go, this is one of the more comfortable ones. Besides for its rounded edges and curved layout, these holsters are as light as a feather.
Furthermore, I was really happy with the retention on these guys. This was especially noteworthy considering they offered one of the smoothest Kydex pulls I’ve ever seen. Although they may seem somewhat flimsy right out of the box, further inspection indicates that they should be able to handle years daily carrying. Between sitting, standing, crouching, and running, I have yet to have any problems with it.
Although the number of people who carry a firearm is continually rising, there are still many people who are on the fence. I believe the main reason why many gun owners don’t carry is because they are worried about printing and their overall comfort. I can safely say that with conceal carry holsters like this Bravo, that fear is a thing of the past. The Torsion DOS (Drop Out of Sight) holsters is a piece of true innovation that can transform your CCW-game. Between the integrated inward cant, lightweight Kydex, and intuitive draw and reholstering, this is definitely a company I can stand by.
Overall, I’ve carried with over a dozen holster brands and I was still impressed by what Bravo Concealment has to offer. The Texas-based company is committed to their state-of-the-art facility and processes and this will keep them relevant for many more years. If you’re looking for comfort, function, and reliability, then look no further.
Thanks for joining us here at Gunivore & Don’t miss our picks for the Top 5 EDC Tactical Knives! | 2019-04-22T22:50:03Z | http://gunivore.com/accessories/bravo-concealment-holsters-review/ |

#CURAPROX, premium-made oral care products from Switzerland tap into the oral care product market in Thailand after rising popularity, hoping to double sales growth by the end of 2018.
Mr. Ekasit Nonsi, Managing Director of BASEC Care Co., Ltd., the sole authorized distributor of CURAPROX, the premium oral care brand from Switzerland, revealed that the 20 billion baht market of oral health care products in Thailand has grown continuously over the past 3 years, with a possibility of increasing by 5% by the end of this year. The company recognizes a market opportunity in this trend and, therefore, imports CURAPROX products which have already been marketed in more than 60 countries around the world and are well received by discerning consumers who focus on disease prevention with outstanding products invented and developed by dentists.
CURAPROX products are invented and developed by dentists to assist the treatment of each specific oral disease (treatment based products) so that consumers can take care of their oral health effectively just like being treated by a dentist. The products are also perfect the target consumers who are thorough in selecting products and see the importance to the brand's background and wish to protect their health.
A highlight of the CURAPROX toothpaste is the absence of allergenic compounds or dangerous substances that pose long-term health risks, foaming substances, SLS, gluten, preservatives, paraben, and Triclosan. Instead, it contains natural enzymes that stimulate the body's natural anti-bacterial mechanism, called the Lactoperoxidase System, which slows down and counteracts the growth of bad bacteria that cause oral diseases. It is rich in fluoride, which is the main purpose of many toothpaste users. CURAPROX encourages the practice of dry brushing to increase the effectiveness of tooth decay prevention. The product is suitable for users with all types of oral conditions and in all treatment groups, even for those who wear braces, patients with oral wound, sensitive users, and for general users.
CURAPROX toothpaste is available in three versions: 1. CURAPROX Enzycal, anti-bacterial toothpaste for 350 baht, 2. CURAPROX Black is White and CURAPROX White is Black, premium charcoal teeth whitening toothpaste which come with a toothbrush designed to help remove discoloration for 1,100 baht per set, and 3. BEYOU toothpaste, to make teeth brushing more fun with the CS5460 Ultra Soft toothbrush for 795 baht per set.

Neutron detectors are vital devices used in various fields like nuclear power, nuclear medicine, particle physics, etc. In the present work, pure europium oxide (Eu2O3) shows the remarkable results for thermal neutron detection. The natural thermal neutron source Cf-252 having flux 106 n/sec/cm2 was used for irradiation of Eu2O3 samples. All the thermal neutron fluences were measured in ex-situ time [1-3]. For the structural confirmation, the samples were characterized by using XRD and from the data it was observed that the intensity of the characteristics peaks decreased with the increase in the neutron fluence. Moreover, thermal neutron dosimetric characteristics of the present phosphor, such as thermoluminescence glow curve, TL dose–response, fading, repeatability have been studied. This phosphor powder represents a deeper level dosimetric trap, which provides the TL glow peak around 303 oC. The TL response of Eu2O3 phosphor as a function of thermal neutron fluence is observed to be very linear up to the fluence of 1.55 X 1011 n/cm2 and then saturates with further increase in the fluence. In addition, the TL glow curves were deconvoluted by glow curve deconvolution (GCD) method and corresponding trapping parameters have been determined. It has been found that for every deconvoluted peak there is a specific level of energy trapping. The europium oxide phosphor has been used effectively for the neutron dosimetric application. | 2019-04-20T13:12:46Z | https://conference-indico.kek.jp/indico/event/48/session/13/contribution/31 |
A woman has been sentenced for publishing the name of a child sexual assault victim after her brother had been jailed for the offence.
Temma Bickley, 28, (pictured) was found guilty following a trial at Nottingham Magistrates’ Court and was sentenced yesterday (Thursday 11 October 2018).
In this case the victim identified by Bickley is also a child so her anonymity is also automatically protected under the Children and Young Persons’ Act.
Detective Chief Inspector Pete Quinn, from Nottinghamshire Police’s Public Protection Department, said: “Temma Bickley was present throughout the court hearing. She knew there was a court order in place banning the publication of any details which could identify the victim in her brother’s case.
“Despite this she deliberately tried to discredit the victim by publicly identifying her using social media.
“Her actions were malicious and have caused the 13-year-old victim a lot of additional distress and anxiety.
“This case shows that we continue to treat victims with respect, properly investigate crimes and do whatever we can to protect them from further abuse.
“We hope this case makes it clear that we will work tirelessly to secure convictions against those who take the law into their own hands and cause misery to innocent members of the public, both in person and via social media. | 2019-04-18T22:44:05Z | https://theukdatabase.com/2018/10/13/temma-bickley-bestwood/ |
The plan today is to visit the slides at Jacques-Cartier Park in the morning, Rideau Hall at 11am and wander around in the afternoon.
Breakfast was nice, I actually forgot what was included besides the take out bag and the breakfast sandwiches. There were also hashbrowns (a bit salty for me), yogurt, juice, Nespresso machine, regular coffee, various bagels, muffins, toast, eggs, and waffles. The best part for me is a toss up between the breakfast sandwiches and the takeout bags. The takeout bags include a water, granola bar, apple, oatmeal cookies and a mint. I like that they make good snack bags so I don't need to hunt for things while wandering the city.
Breakfast at The Business Inn.
After breakfast we decided to visit the slides at Jacques-Cartier Park which is in Gatineau, Quebec, a short drive or shuttle ride and we got there by 10am. The place was very empty when we got there and we were able to quickly do all the slides that we wanted and not having to line up makes the experience that much better since it was really cold out (-30 before windchill). We did the group slide twice, the solo slide once and we did the tube slide twice before leaving roughly 20 minutes later.
We had to leave early since I had planned to visit Rideau Hall at 11am and they said that we should be there 10 minutes before. Parking is free and available all along MacKay St, it is a short walk to get to Rideau Hall. The tour is free, but you need to call to make a reservation and it lasts roughly 1 hour. Rideau Hall is where the Governor General lives and it was a neat building to visit. The guided tour starts with a security check, so make sure to have all metal items available for inspection. Pictures are allowed and there are some neat areas inside. By the end of the tour, you get a better understanding of the building and the history behind the Governor General and their role within the Canadian Government. I would suggest coming if you have the time. It also isn't too far from Byward Market, about a 30 minute walk.
Shawarma Palace was where we went for lunch, a short drive from Rideau Hall. There is parking available on premise, however, I ended up parking on Augusta St which is right next to it anyways. Lunch was one chicken shawarma plate and one falal wrap and between us, we finished the wrap and had about 20% of the plate left before we stopped. It was a lot of food. The plate includes hummus, salad, potatoes, rice, shawarma and pita. The food is good, however, I think that there is a better shawarma restaurant that is near Rideau Centre that I liked more from last time. There is a lot of seating available here. We arrived at around 12:20pm and it was pretty busy there but no issues finding a spot.
Shawarma Palace, chicken dinner on the left, falafel pita on the right.
After food, we went back to the hotel and rested since I was having a bit of a food coma and napped for about an hour. We headed back to Confederation Park for some more freebies of coffee, tea, cookies, and marshmallow as well as a Goodlife grocery bag. Wandered to the Rideau Canal and took some pictures, however we did not brave the weather and skipped out on skating today and would try again tomorrow.
Dinner was at Fiazza Fresh Fired Pizza which reminds me of Famoso in Toronto but with less non-pizza options. There were only two types of salad and the other option is pizza. The ingredient list seems better than Famoso but the cost adds up quick if you want to make your own. We ended up ordering two pizzas from their pre-made list which was the Capri Pesto (pesto and red sauce blend, goat cheese, roasted red peppers, artichokes, olives, and Fiazza cheese blend) and the Bella Prosciutto (prosciutto & arugula (after fired), alfredo & red sauce mix, blue cheese, rosemary, and Fiazza cheese blend) and a ginger beer. The food was good, no complaints there, my issue is that they converted it from a serve yourself restaurant to a full service restaurant for Valentine's Day weekend. I understand the purpose, however, they were really under-staffed for it. They had one hostess and one server for the entire restaurant which looked like would sit at least 50 people. The pizza makers seemed under-staffed when they received a bunch of orders for tables of 8+ people. Overall, I think the food is worth the visit, but maybe not for a special occasion. Bella Prosciutto was $12.95, and Capri Pesto was $10.95.
Fiazza Fresh Fired Pizza, Capri Pesto on the left, Bella Prosciutto on the right.
On our walk back, we saw The Cupcake Lounge and stopped by for two cupcakes, one strawberry champagne and one key lime. We walked back to the hotel and called it a night. The cupcakes were okay. They were a bit deceptive since it looks like a lot of frosting but it actually is like a muffin with a bit of frosting on top. Nothing wrong with them but I expected more frosting than cupcake.

Tomorrow, we will visit the Mint for a tour and have lunch before heading back to Toronto. | 2019-04-20T17:22:09Z | http://travel.waihinlau.com/2016/02/2016-winterlude-day-2.html |
Then, tell us what you think about this renewed interest in older technologies.
I have, for as long as I can remember, been SICK TO DEATH of seeing some new network "protocol" created for every stupid little thing that anyone wants to do over a network. One of the things that I liked best about creating software was figuring out how to accomplish the goal using the limited set of tools avaiable in the programming language and the platform that the software would run on.
Why the endless drive for 'new technology' (in all aspects of computing)? Why not work on an existing system until it's solidly reliable? Every time a new operating system (or version) is released, it is guaranteed that there will be new bugs not present in the software it's designed to replace. Moreover, in the case of Microsoft, the look and feel and even the terminology keeps changing. Why? If an international law was passed making it obligatory for operating systems to reside in ROM in a PC (i.e. the O.S. couldn't be updated without physically opening the PC and changing the ROM chip(s)), the creator of the O.S. would have to get it right before release, purely on economic grounds. Carry on Google!
Some of lifes developments are really good but 'upgrades' based more on the need to keep an industry giant's balance sheet looking good frequently are not.
Google has gone ahead and perfected the slim architecture of the web app and definitely makes me, coming from a systems background, believe that it's their number one reason for their success. There's a lot that can be said about simplicity. Google says it with their Quarterly profits reports.
Good for Google. I, too, am tired of the deluge of "newer and better" stuff. Add the increasing number of markup languages to that as well.
advocating getting rid of clientside scripting and all these other bells and whistles for a long time.
with server side techniques, specially with xml/xhtml you don't need to steal processing from site visitors to do these fancy tricks.
So you're against the Google approach, then?
Not sure you made your position clear. Are you saying, ditch the JScript/DHTML solutions for something else? Or are you saying you like what Google is doing with JScript/DHTML?
they should use server side code.
clientside is theft of computer services under laws passed in support of distributed computing for .net framework.
so any clientside code means pay client ( site visitor ) for cpu usage.
xml/xhtml is server side work.
aww no clientside no fancy aniated meues.
that's okay, they aren't needed anyway.
Why waste so much time on new technology all the time?
Although significant develompments are made from time to time, I feel that the value of really knowing your language and tools in most cases outweigh the advantages of implementing new stuff by far. You end up spending so much time just getting to know yet another technonogy or language and that time could in most cases be better spent on doing actual development. It should at least be several years between every time you have to start from scratch with a new technology! Don't let the big companies trick you into thinking otherwise. They just want to make money on new products. | 2019-04-21T16:58:00Z | https://www.techrepublic.com/forums/discussions/web-tools-blaze-trail-to-the-past/ |
What is Business and Communications Systems all about?
Throughout Key Stage 3 pupils follow units of work that introduce them to the business world, developing their IT practical skills as well as an understanding of different careers. At Key Stage 4 we deliver the AQA GCSE Business and Communications course to the majority of our students. This is a two year course and is taught for 1 hour per week during Year 10 and Year 11. Students will learn about modern working practices and the uses of various technologies in the workplace. Their practical ICT skills are also developed using the extensive range of software we have at The Albany.
It gives us a picture about how the business environment works and what legislation is in place to protect employees. It shows us how modern technology comes into play in businesses and we are taught the skills necessary to be confident and competent with various pieces of software on the computer.
Year 7 pupils develop their IT practical skills and learn how they are used in real life situations. They will also use web authoring and programming software. They can take this on to design games, a useful skill for making money.
Year 8 pupils learn how to become an online entrepreneur, setting up a shopping website. Watch out Dragons Den!
Year 9 pupils design the control element of a theme park ride. They also learn how to set up and run a major fund-raising event. Watch out V-Fest!
Year10 The business environment, Spreadsheets, Administration and organisation, Databases, Human Resources, Presentations, Controlled assessment research.
Year11 Controlled assessment completion, DTP and evaluating software, Communication, past papers and revision.
As you may be aware there is now a big push from our current government towards introducing Computing to the school curriculum. This starts officially from 2014 but we want to be ahead of the game at The Albany. We will shortly be changing our Key Stage 3 subject title from Business and Communications to ICT and Computing. While still being conscious of much of the valuable content of our old schemes of work we are now working to adapt these to incorporate a significant proportion dedicated to computing.
The tasks below are tutorials which can be found at the link shown.
The tasks are not specific to a particular year group.
We ask the students to e-mail or print a screen shot to their teacher as evidence of their work. It must show which stage of the tutorial they have reached. This will provide proof of completion and allow the ICT segment of their PSP wheel to be signed off for term 2.
Now have a go at this one!
Pick any of these games and work through the stages.
GCSE Revision books now available for Year 11 students!!!

FTC Holds That Rambus Unlawfully Monopolized Markets, 8/2/2006.
August 2, 2006. The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) released its opinion [120 pages in PDF] in its administrative proceeding titled "In the Matter of Rambus, Inc.". It concludes that Rambus unlawfully monopolized the markets for four computer memory technologies that have been incorporated into industry standards for dynamic random access memory (DRAM) chips.
This reverses the February 17, 2004, order of Stephen McGuire, Chief Administrative Law Judge, dismissing the FTC's complaint. See, story titled "ALJ Dismisses FTC Complaint Against Rambus" in TLJ Daily E-Mail Alert No. 839, February 18, 2004.
The FTC also issued an order [2 pages in PDF] on August 2, 2006, titled "Order Reversing and Vacating Initial Decision and Accompanying Supplemental Briefing on Issues of Remedy, and Denying Complaint Counsel's Motion for Sanctions".
See also, FTC Docket No. 9302 for hyperlinks to pleadings in this proceeding.
FTC Complaint. On June 19, 2002, the FTC filed an administrative complaint against Rambus alleging anti competitive behavior in violation of Section 5 of the Federal Trade Commission Act (FTCA) in connection with its participation in a standard setting body for dynamic random access memory products. See, story titled "FTC Files Administrative Complaint Against Rambus" in TLJ Daily E-Mail Alert No. 455, June 20, 2002.
The complaint pertains to Rambus's participation in the JEDEC Solid State Technology Association, which was formerly known as the Joint Electron Device Engineering Council. JEDEC develops and issues technical standards for a form of computer memory known as synchronous dynamic random access memory (SDRAM).
The complaint alleged that Rambus "has illegally monopolized, attempted to monopolize, or otherwise engaged in unfair methods of competition in certain markets relating to technological features necessary for the design and manufacture of a common form of digital computer memory, known as dynamic random access memory, or ``DRAM.´´"
The FTC alleged that Rambus engaged in anticompetitive behavior in violation of Section 5 of the FTCA by "participating in the work of an industry standard setting organization, known as JEDEC, without making it known to JEDEC or to its members that Rambus was actively working to develop, and did in fact possess, a patent and several pending patent applications that involved specific technologies proposed for and ultimately adopted in the relevant standards."
FTC Opinion. The just released opinion states that "Through a course of deceptive conduct, Rambus exploited its participation in JEDEC to obtain patents that would cover technologies incorporated into now-ubiquitous JEDEC memory standards, without revealing its patent position to other JEDEC members. As a result, Rambus was able to distort the standard-setting process and engage in anticompetitive ``hold up´´ of the computer memory industry. Conduct of this sort has grave implications for competition."
The opinion concludes that "Rambus's acts of deception constituted exclusionary conduct under Section 2 of the Sherman Act, and that Rambus unlawfully monopolized the markets for four technologies incorporated into the JEDEC standards in violation of Section 5 of the FTC Act."
It adds that "We find that Rambus engaged in exclusionary conduct that significantly contributed to its acquisition of monopoly power in four related markets. By hiding the potential that Rambus would be able to impose royalty obligations of its own choosing, and by silently using JEDEC to assemble a patent portfolio to cover the SDRAM and DDR SDRAM standards, Rambus’s conduct significantly contributed to JEDEC’s choice of Rambus’s technologies for incorporation in the JEDEC DRAM standards and to JEDEC’s failure to secure assurances regarding future royalty rates – which, in turn, significantly contributed to Rambus’s acquisition of monopoly power."
FTC Commissioner Pamela Harbour wrote the opinion, which was joined by all four of the other Commissioners.
Liebowitz wrote that "From the FTC's earliest days, deceitful conduct has fallen within Section 5's province for its effects on competition, as well as on consumers. Innovation -- clearly at issue in this case -- is indisputably a matter of critical antitrust interest."
Liebowitz argued that the FTC "should place greater emphasis on developing the full range of its jurisdiction and making it more clear to the bar, the public, the business community, and potential antitrust malefactors what Section 5 embraces and what it does not. Although the Commission has not left fallow its Section 5 jurisdiction to challenge conduct outside the antitrust laws, neither has the Agency fully exercised or explained it. In discussing Section 5 in the context of Rambus, I hope to encourage the Commission (and its staff) to develop further and employ more fully this critical and unique aspect of our statutory mandate. If we do, benefit will accrue both to consumers and to competition." | 2019-04-18T10:45:48Z | http://www.techlawjournal.com/topstories/2006/20060802.asp |

Ann Donner Consulting (ADC) was a member of The Seebaldt Pilot (TSP) project team. TSP was the result of a 4-year community-driven partnership between the transdisciplinary design firm, studio[Ci], the grassroots community group, It Starts at Home (IS@H), and Detroit’s 48204 community.
The project focused on the opportunity to affordably acquire and activate concentrations of publicly owned (DLBA) vacant parcels for generative infrastructure: energy, water, food production, waste, and mobility.
TSP pilots a unique solar technology, the multifunctional Hybridized Net Zero Energy (HNZE) Canopy, with the goal of generating and distributing solar power for electricity to the community through an energy cooperative.
TSP’s comprehensive, sustainable community plan was awarded the First Place Gold prize for North America from the LefargeHolcim Foundation and received the Bronze prize in the Global award competition. The Foundation recognizes innovative projects and future-oriented concepts – and is the most significant global competition for sustainable design.
ADC completed a comprehensive strategic planning project for Make-It Springfield, a community-based makerspace located in downtown Springfield, Massachusetts.
Beginning as a 30-day pilot project in a vacant storefront, in just under two years Make-It Springfield has welcomed over 2,700 people of all ages attending 90 unique workshops.
With the support of a MassDevelopment Collaborative Workspace Planning Grant, the Make-It Springfield Strategic Planning Committee identified next steps, strategies, and opportunities to sustain Make-It Springfield and prepare for expanded programming and greater impact. The highly participatory planning effort engaged Springfield residents, artists, makers, city officials, arts, business and community organizations, UMass Amherst, and Springfield Technical Community College. | 2019-04-24T14:17:43Z | https://anndonner.com/whats-new/ |

Now that winter is approaching it is a good idea to become more familiar with a topic that pertains to traveling long distances and practicing your favorite sport. A study by Skyscanner compares the costs of transporting equipment by different companies.
The study shows that there are big differences between companies when it comes to paying an extra fee when traveling with ski equipment. In some companies like SWISS (Swiss airline) it will not cost you an extra cent to transport your boots, skis, or board as an addition to your current baggage.
The study focuses on 20 airlines that travel to the most important ski centers in Europe such as, Geneva, Zürich, Grenoble, Toulouse, Milan or Turin among others. Most low-cost carriers charge their travelers rates between £ 50 to £ 100, as is the case with Ryanair.
Therefore, when planning your trip you have to keep in mind that what at first seems like the cheapest option, may end up being the most expensive.
For example, a flight with Ryanair from London to Grenoble leaves for around £ 25 per trip, but if we include the luggage fees we will arrive at a rate three times higher (£ 190). At British Airways we will pay one pound less, and with Norwegian Air Up to £ 20 less.
Another parameter to take into account is the restriction on the measures of the luggage imposed by each company.
Some such as Air France, Air Berlin, Delta, and KLM allow the transport of luggage in cabins up to 300 cm long while others such as US Airways, Austrian, Iberia, Lufthansa and United will not allow pieces greater than 158 cm. For many skis or boards, this is insufficient and you will have to pay extra.
There are also differences within the same company between the different ticket types. Air France, includes the ski equipment on the ‘classic’ ticket but not on the ‘mini’ type ticket. Iberia operates as a similar policy.
“We strive to offer the most transparent prices possible on our website and with this guide we have gone a step further by offering clear information about the rates on ski equipment. We hope that this will allow our customers to make the right decision when choosing the flight or even to know if it’s worth economically traveling with the team or not, “says Mary Porter of the Skyscanner team.
To sum it all up, look over all details very carefully regarding the cost of transporting snow luggage in an airline, because the “bargain” flight can become more expensive. | 2019-04-26T08:13:10Z | https://getsready.com/6-tips-for-transporting-ski-equipment-in-airplanes/ |
Plans to ‘end rabbit hutch homes’ made all the headlines but the government’s consultation on housebuilding ‘red tape’ is about much more – and maybe not even that.
The housing standards review was launched in the wake of the government’s housing and construction red tape challenge, which itself was part of a wider drive to eliminate over-regulation in the economy.
Don Foster duly hailed the results published this week as ‘cutting red tape to help build more affordable homes’. Rules on safety and accessibility would not be changed but the number of housing standards that councils are allowed to apply locally would be reduced from more than 100 to fewer than 10.
Nothing wrong with that, you might think. A patchwork of different requirements in different local areas increases design and construction costs for house builders and that means new homes cost more. Instead the Building Regulations will be backed by nationally agreed standards on issues such as security and accessibility.
If that steam rolls its way through the localist principles that supposedly unite the Conservatives and Liberal Democrats, so be it. After all, the coalition did pretty much the same thing on planning with the national planning policy framework for councils that fail to agree a local plan.
But look a little deeper beneath the surface of the documents published this week and it becomes clear that the issues involved in ‘cutting red tape’ and ‘taking off the bureaucratic handbrake’ are highly complex.
First, as the consultation document acknowledges, the costs and benefits are about far more than just the construction cost of a new home. Any consideration of the standards of new homes has to balance a range of different policy considerations for society as a whole against that headline calculation. Sometimes requirements can vary between regions for good reasons and imposing a national standard can lead to increased costs in some areas.
Meanwhile the adoption of higher minimum space standards for affordable housing in London than elsewhere followed the decision to hand the Homes and Communities Agency’s London operations over to the Greater London Authority in 2011.
Third, ‘red tape’ is very much in the eye of the beholder. The consultation that is supposedly reducing it actually proposes a new requirement on developers to provide waste storage for new homes to avoid bins dominating street frontages (reducing ‘bin blight’ is an obsession of Conservative communities secretary Eric Pickles) and raises the possibility of new national space standards (supposedly a victory for the Lib Dem half of the coalition). As ‘red’ tape is swept away, blue and yellow tape seems to be taking its place.
The impact assessment sheds further murky light on the space proposals. It does not include space standard impacts ‘because there is no firm proposal at this stage for a specific space element in the proposed nationally described housing standard and the evidence base on the costs and benefits of different standards is still at an early stage’. A preliminary analysis is tacked on to the end of the main statement. Space standards will be the subject of a huge battle over the next few months but supporters will have to overcome the presumption against them in the consultation.
Fifth, the consultation and impact assessment confirm moves to water down previous commitments on the sustainability and energy efficiency of new homes while still using the same terminology. The code for sustainable homes, which was set up to blaze a trail ahead of minimum standards laid down in the Building Regulations is seen as responsible for ‘a proliferation of local design standard requirements’ that have added to costs. It will now be phased out and the impact assessment states that ‘code levels 4, 5 and 6 do not now fit in with, or represent the government’s definition of zero carbon’. The Planning and Energy Act 2008, which allows local authorities to set requirements for on-site renewables, ‘may need to be amended or removed’.
Just as well then that my final point is that the environmental impact will not be as great as it seemed it would be when the UK-GBC was founded in 2007 and output of new homes was around 180,000. Completions are of course currently running at around 110,000 or half the level needed to achieve 250,000 net additions to the stock per year. The impact assessment includes an estimate of housing growth over the next 10 years. Under the (optimistic?) midpoint estimate of 4.5 per cent growth a year it will take until 2022 to get back to 2007 levels.
Communities and Local Government department ministers claim that policies to boost house building such as the elimination of ‘red tape’ proposed in this consultation are working. Their own civil servants estimate that England will fall at least another 500,000 homes behind the level needed to meet demand over the next 10 years. | 2019-04-26T04:31:27Z | https://julesbirch.com/2013/08/22/tape-measure/ |

One 12 seed got its first NCAA Tournament win in program history, another staged a huge comeback then hung on for a double-overtime victory and two 11 seeds also pulled upsets. In total, seven lower-seeded teams won in the tourney's first 16 games, but of course, the No. 1 seeds have so far assured themselves a spot in the second round.
PROVIDENCE, R.I. - Makai Mason had a career-high 31 points, including six of Yale's final nine points, and the No. 12 seed Bulldogs held on to upset fifth seed Baylor on Thursday.
PROVIDENCE, R.I. (AP) Marshall Plumlee ditched the mask guarding his broken nose and responded by scoring a career-high 23 points to lead defending national champion Duke past UNC Wilmington.
DENVER (AP) - Little Rock is advancing thanks to an out-of-nowhere comeback that led to a victory over Purdue.
DENVER (AP) - Gonzaga is moving on in the NCAA Tournament after pulling away from Seton Hall behind 21 points and 16 rebounds from Domantas Sabonis.
Gonzaga came in as an 11 seed - a team that struggled at times this season and was no sure bet to make its 18th straight trip into March Madness until it won its conference tournament.
But against sixth-seeded Seton Hall (25-9), this didn't feel like an upset.
The key was limiting Isaiah Whitehead. Whitehead, the star of Seton Hall's run to its first Big East tournament title since 1993, scored only 10 points and missed all 10 of his 3-point shots.
RALEIGH, N.C. (AP) - Anthony Gill scored 19 points and Virginia beat Hampton 81-45.
DENVER (AP) - Monte Morris showed no lingering effects of his right shoulder injury, scoring 20 points and dishing out eight assists in Iowa State's win over Iona.
RALEIGH, N.C. (AP) - Kelan Martin scored all 11 of his points in the final 8 1/2 minutes, including consecutive 3-pointers to break a tie game, to help Butler beat Texas Tech.
DENVER (AP) - Sophomore 7-footer Jakob Poeltl scored 16 points and pulled down a career-high 18 rebounds to help Utah hold off feisty Fresno State.
PROVIDENCE, R.I. (AP) - Fred VanVleet and Ron Baker combined for 29 points and Wichita State's swarming defense did the rest as the Shockers beat Arizona.
DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) - Svi Mykhailiuk scored a career-high 23 points, Perry Ellis added 21 and top-seeded Kansas throttled Austin Peay.
DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) - Rodney Purvis, Daniel Hamilton and a stifling defense carried Connecticut back from an 11-point first-half deficit, giving the Huskies enough for a victory over Colorado that kept coach Kevin Ollie unbeaten in the NCAA Tournament.
PROVIDENCE, R.I. (AP) - Angel Rodriguez had 24 points and seven rebounds as third-seeded Miami held on to defeat No. 14 seed Buffalo.
RALEIGH, N.C. (AP) - Brice Johnson scored 18 points and No. 1 seed North Carolina needed an overwhelming second-half start to put away 16th-seeded Florida Gulf Coast.
Florida Gulf Coast (21-14) already owned a bit of underdog history with its ''Dunk City'' bunch the first 15-seed to reach the Sweet 16, in 2013.
DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) - Yogi Ferrell had 20 points and a season-high 10 assists, O.G. Anunoby pitched in 14 points and No. 5 seed Indiana took charge of its NCAA Tournament opener against Chattanooga.
DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) - Jamal Murray led five players in double figures with 19 points and fourth-seeded Kentucky routed Stony Brook, setting up a showdown with rival Indiana in the second round.
RALEIGH, N.C. (AP) - Rodney Bullock hit a layup with 1.5 seconds left and Providence beat Southern California. | 2019-04-26T04:32:31Z | https://www.si.com/college-basketball/2016/03/18/ap-bkc-ncaa-tournament-capsules |
For the past 22 years, I have been the executive director of the Reuse Center at Boston Building Resources. We accept donations of used building materials—such as kitchen cabinet sets, windows, doors, and hardware—that may be left over from a renovation or surplus stock. We make these materials available to low- and moderate-income homeowners at affordable prices. An international reuse conference called ReuseConex was just held earlier this month in the Boston area, and my participation in the conference as a planning committee member and a panelist led me to reflect on some of the lessons I’ve learned about the reuse business over the years.
Materials from a dismantled movie set were donated to the Reuse Center at BBR.
Homeowners and business donors bring contractors to the party.
When seeking donations, we quickly learned that individual homeowners and business owners were eager to give us their used and surplus materials. They were very enthusiastic about the possibility of their unneeded materials being useful to someone else. Contractors were somewhat reluctant at first, due to a perceived added cost of taking the time to carefully dismantle materials (like a cabinet set, for example) rather than continue with the traditional “crunch and dump.” The federal tax credit for donations to a charity helped offset any added expense, and contractors quickly learned that becoming part of the reuse movement is good for business. Potential customers are impressed with the idea of finding a second life for their materials, especially when these materials would help someone in need.
The quality of donated materials is impressively high.
In 1994, when the Reuse Center was started in two storage trailers, two of our earliest donations were a brand new birch cabinet set with a wholesale value of $15,000 and an amazing variety of new hardware from a distributor that was closing their doors—a victim of the early big-box era. These donations set the standard and demonstrated to our fledgling customer base that we could provide great materials at steeply discounted prices. To this day, I am amazed at the quality of the materials donated to us.
Operating a reuse center is a challenging business.
It takes a lot of effort to bring tons of used materials through our doors each year, process them, and find them new homes. We need able-bodied people to drive our truck and collect materials, which are often heavy and cumbersome; people to clean, assemble, disassemble, and research prices; salespeople to serve customers; and supporting functions like scheduling, communications, and human resources. The Reuse Center is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, but we operate like a small business, and, like any business, we experience our share of turnover and headaches. However, we enjoy a diverse staff and customer base, so we have engendered a community spirit that is rare to experience these days.
Customers may try to keep our organization their little secret.
Word of mouth is the most effective means of outreach for any organization, and ours is no exception. But I have been told on more than one occasion by customers that they choose not to share the secret of our program with others for fear that there will be fewer great products available to them! Reuse Center customers suffer from, and thrive upon, the thrill of hunting for one-of-a-kind items, which can lead to euphoria or frustration.
Customers’ ingenuity and initiative are truly admirable.
The ReuseConex conference was sponsored by the Reuse Institute and the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection.

Nyon (Switzerland): Manchester United will play Danish side FC Midtjylland after dropping into the Europa League.
Louis van Gaal's men, eliminated from the Champions League last week, were handed the tie in the draw for the Last 32 of the second-tier competition at UEFA headquarters in Nyon.
Premier League rivals Liverpool will face German outfit Augsburg while Tottenham were paired with Italians Fiorentina.
Gary Neville's Valencia were drawn against Rapid Vienna.
The first legs of the ties are set to be played on February 18 or 25 with the return matches on March 10 or 17.
United have found themselves in the Europa League after finishing third behind Wolfsburg and PSV Eindhoven in their Champions League group. It is the second time in four years they have dropped into the competition.
Spurs avoided sides eliminated from the Champions League but will face a stern test against Fiorentina, who are flying high in second place in Serie A.
Liverpool's opponents Augsburg are not enjoying such a successful season, and are 13th in the Bundesliga, but manager Jurgen Klopp will undoubtedly relish facing opposition from his homeland.
Other notable ties in the round include Borussia Dortmund vs Porto, Villarreal vs Napoli, Sporting Lisbon vs Bayer Leverkusen and Galatasaray vs Lazio.

Painter Byron Birdsall is an artist with a national reputation for his depictions of nature, and a guy with a hankering for some auld lang syne.
Best known for the variety and drama of his Alaskan landscapes, Birdsall’s unique ability to capture light is evident in all of his paintings, along with his penchant for times gone by, including his nostalgic renderings of Whidbey Island.
Rob Schouten Gallery presents “Island Times… Greenbank and Beyond” featuring the paintings of Byron Birdsall. The show opens Friday, Aug. 29 and runs through Monday, Sept. 29.
While landscapes and cityscapes are Birdsall’s forte, his love of history has led to painting from archival material resulting in many historical pieces, such as his early 20th century depictions of the Greenbank Store, and downtown Langley and Coupeville. The show will also feature the artist’s iconic landscapes of his beloved Alaska and of the Northwest.
A longtime resident of Anchorage, Alaska, and now living part-time on Whidbey Island, Birdsall found more inspiration in the Puget Sound region, particularly Mt. Rainier, the Olympic Mountains and the island.
“I first came to Whidbey Island in 1999 and was entranced by the beauty of the place, and Whidbey Island has a rich and interesting history, as well,” Birdsall said.
Using old photographs, Birdsall captures scenes of Whidbey that reveal his pleasure in the charm of small town life. In fact, Birdsall said his long career as a painter has all been a great pleasure, occupied as he is by doing the thing he loves best.

This week F+W Media announced a unique distribution partnership with URP Music Distributors. The vinyl record distributors will place F+W’s magazine Goldmine, a music title geared toward record collectors, in over 600 independent record stores. The initial distribution of the title will launch on April 22nd, also known as Record Store Day.
The Goldmine distribution story is a great lesson for every publisher and gives me some fond memories of publishing times past. My first two publications, one in New York called The Express and one in Arizona, called The Mountain NewsReal were from a media species then called the underground press. I was in my early twenties and we had no rulebooks or mentors, so my partners and I just made up "procedures" as we went along.
One of the things we explored was not only publishing an alternative newspaper but also alternative distribution. Our papers were distributed not on newsstands, but in retail outlets, hair cutters, bars, clubs, college dormitories, rock concerts, head shops, and a dozen other non-traditional publication outlets.
The same theories held true later for us at High Times magazine. In the beginning no wholesaler would distribute the controversial title, so we needed to create alternative distribution outlets other than traditional newsstand. We did so to great effect and extremely high sell through numbers.
It is the non-traditional aspect of this story that modern publishers should consider. The old newsstand outlets are diminishing, with rare exception. Each sales report is down by double digits from the year before. It seems to me that creative, new distribution outlets like the ones that Goldmine found are the way to offset some of the lost circulation. I know that many niche titles today do this very thing; they distribute their publications where their readers are rather then where their readers aren't. | 2019-04-20T15:05:26Z | https://www.pubexec.com/post/fw-media-taps-power-alternative-distribution/ |

An original version of a contemporary style holiday home has been designed to offer comfort and space for six people. Set in a rural setting, surrounded by fields of olive trees, villa Alleroni is located on six kilometers from Martina Franca, in the heart of the Itria valley, from where you can easily visit Ostuni, Alberobello, Cisternino and other places that have made this area well known. An area of the typical trullo shaped houses and towns totally painted in white.
Alleroni consists over one single floor, on which three bedrooms and two bathrooms are located on both sides of the living room. In the center of the house there is one spacious room with a fully equipped kitchen with a cooking island, a dining area and the living room with fireplace. The walls covered in natural oak alternate with local rock walls, as if to underline that despite the contemporary style, nature masters it all. The living area offers big French sliding doors on both sides, which during the summer, allow a pleasant opening towards the pool area. Crossing the lawn for a few meters, you reach the salt water swimming pool, wide and long enough to have a good swim. In front of the kitchen, there is a covered outdoor area where to dine while enjoying the amazing view of the hills and countryside. A little further on, there is a cemented area with a circular section with the brazier, the place where to barbeque. On the opposite side there is another area for outdoor dining, where you can find a large table with garden benches, an area protected by a drywall. The nearest restaurant is on walking distance from Alleroni and you can find supermarkets, restaurants and other shops in Martina Franca or Cisternino, both on a six kilometer distance. In the surroundings of this property you can also find a nice track for bike tours.

Brisbane Roar have sewn up a home grand final in the eyes of many, but a high-intensity training session at Ballymore on Thursday proves there will be no complacency in the second leg of their major semi-final with Central Coast on Saturday.
Recording a 2-0 win at Bluetongue Stadium means the Roar will return to Suncorp, where they are undefeated this season, knowing that even a draw or a one-goal loss will be enough to see them progress to the Championship decider.
But while the Mariners are at long odds to trouble the Hyundai A-League Premiers, a heated and highly physical 11-a-side scrimmage at the close of the Roar's Thursday morning hit-out shows they are taking nothing for granted.
Foundation Roar player Massimo Murdocca said that the hard and fast nature of the session was indicative of a desire to stay on the boil and the fierce competition for places.
"That's how it is in finals. We've been here before and we know how important these games are, but we've never been in a major semi-final before," he said.
"It's different for a lot of us, being in this situation, and we don't want to let it slip, so we're going to work extra hard."
"I think (it's good for everyone to be getting stuck into each other at training). I think it keeps everyone on their toes, and at the end of the day everyone wants to play, so it's good for everybody to have that competition."
Murdocca, who returned from a quad injury in the first round against the Mariners, is one of a number of starting-standard Roar players resigned to a place on the bench in the final weeks of the 2010-11 season.
"It'll be tough for me to start in the next couple of weeks. I'll probably have to be a bench player for the rest of the year, which is a bit of a disappointment," he said.
"But that's the way it goes and if that's the sacrifice I have to take for the team to win the championship, I-ll be happy to do it."
"We've really benefitted from the bench this year, and I want these two games to be no different. I want to make an impact."
"Whoever else is alongside me on the bench, when we get our opportunity, we want to make a difference and we want to keep the momentum going for the team, whether it's the first minute or the 90th minute."
Despite earlier reports to the contrary, Costa Rican marksman Jean Carlos Solorzano is set to be recalled to the starting side as the central attacker, pushing Kosta Barbarouses to the right flank and relegating crowd-favourite Henrique to the bench.
"Nico's (Solorzano) been that striker this year, scoring in big moments, and Ricky (Henrique) is coming back from a very severe injury (broken leg), as well. His fitness isn't quite there, so I don't blame Ange (Postecoglou) for making that call," said Murdocca.
"It's a massive game and I think Nico's probably the most suited to it." | 2019-04-21T23:17:40Z | https://www.a-league.com.au/news/roar-ready-rumble |

Take the long-term view: why have equity markets been weak?
Equity markets have re-traced and become more volatile over the second half of 2018.
History reminds us that those investors who take a long-term view and invest when equity markets become overly negative are generally well-rewarded when overall market risk tolerance stabilises.
While the RBNZ expects to keep the OCR on hold through 2019 and into 2020, in their past two Monetary Policy Statements they have outlined two alternative scenarios: one with stronger inflation pressures; and another with softer economic growth. In our view, the market is currently underestimating the chances of a third scenario, which is a combination of both stronger inflation pressures and softer economic growth. | 2019-04-22T14:09:15Z | https://harbourasset.co.nz/research-and-commentary?start=10 |
Randolph Street is actually decent. It can take you right down to both Hart Plaza and the Renaissance Center with no problems, but good luck with traffic while trying to get across East Jefferson Avenue - the lights there are ungodly slow. There's actually a nice restaurant right off Randolph called Lori's. They got the best wines in the world in my opinion so that's worth a shot. City Hall isn't that far away either; maybe less then a block from East Larned and Randolph. At least there you can see the infamous Spirit of Detroit statue. You can in theory cut down Cadillac Square too, which will take you over to Woodward Avenue and Campus Martius Park. While there, check out that nice little confectionary shop right in Campus Martius. It's a bit expensive but worth the visit. There's a few good bars up and down Randolph Street too, particulary one right by East Congress that I thought had an "Irish" feel to it. It's a nice street overall and safe. | 2019-04-18T19:07:08Z | https://www.streetadvisor.com/randolph-st-downtown-detroit-wayne-county-michigan |

Stop waiting for someone else to ‘fix things’ for you. The responsibility is yours to manage and control your emotions and your life. No one can make you happy, pull you out of despair or lavish you with abundance. If you want these things, you’re going to have to pull yourself up and get it done. Don’t give up in total despair, you can do this. One moment at a time.
It’s up to you to control your emotions. No one can make you feel a certain way, unless YOU allow them to. Blaming someone else for your choice to be sad or feel despair, is like blaming the Sun for a glass someone dropped in a restaurant on the other side of the world. One has nothing to do with the other. You chose your emotions, and it’s time to allow the healing to happen and control your own destiny.
If you wake up in the morning only thinking about how gray and gloomy things are, you’ll never see the Sun sparkle on the morning dew. There is always a silver lining, you simply have to be willing to find it. Make the decision to be happy, to pull yourself out of the rut you’re in and get on with life. Because life isn’t going to wait for you much longer.
You don’t need someone in your life to make you happy. But you’re not going to find someone to share your life with, by sitting at home in the dark. Today and through the weekend, open the curtains to the world outside. Let the Sun shine in and warm your day. If you’re somewhere that makes that impossible, then go outside and feel the warmth on your skin, or the breeze blow across your face. Take a walk in a park, or find a nice bench to rest on as you watch the world in its hustle and bustle. Get involved with something, even if it’s simply helping someone across the street or picking up a bottle for a mother who is overwhelmed and just needs some kindness.
If this state of mind has been going on for a long time now, maybe you should find someone willing to talk to you on a professional level. This isn’t the 1800s, it’s ok to seek mental help from a professional who can give you the pep talks you need, and the tools you can use to turn your thinking around and over come the fog you’ve put yourself into.
If you’re one of the lucky people who feels happy, think about those in your life that you know are having a hard time. Reach out and offer a hand of kindness and caring. Sometimes all someone really needs to turn things around is someone to talk to. Not someone who will judge their emotions or actions, but who will listen and offer ideas or support to help. Sometimes people who have fallen, know what they need to do, but for some reason they don’t feel as though they have the ability to do it. Even if it means simply driving them to a local drug rehabilitation clinic, you maybe offering the biggest hand to save their lives.
Today and through the weekend, make it your mission to either pull yourself up by your bootstraps and turn your life around for the better. Smile and the world will smile back at you. Smile and tell yourself you can be happy and you can move through life with ease and joy. You don’t have to convince the world, you just have to convince yourself. Take one step, and you’ll be able to walk into a brighter future. | 2019-04-24T23:50:09Z | https://springwolf.net/category/daily-tarot-meditation-%E2%99%A3/2018-daily-tarot-meditation/ |
The popular osteoporosis medication Fosamax (alendronate sodium) has been linked to osteonecrosis of the Jaw (ONJ), femur fractures, and severe musculoskeletal pain.
If you or a loved one has been injured by Fosamax, you should contact our lawyers immediately for a free confidential case evaluation. You may be entitled to compensation for your injuries and we can help.
Fosamax is a bisphosphonate drug used to treat and prevent bone loss associated with osteoporosis. Unfortunately, Fosamax has been linked to a serious bone disease called osteonecrosis of the jaw (ONJ).
Osteonecrosis of the jaw is a disease in which bone tissue in the jaw does not heal correctly. Over the past five years, hundreds of lawsuits have been filed against Merck claiming that rather than increasing bone density and strengthening bones, the drug can actually cause a deterioration of the jaw bone and contribute to femur fractures.
In October 2010, The U.S. Food & Drug Administration (FDA) required Merck & Co. Inc., the manufacturer of Fosamax (generic: Alendronate sodium) to change the labeling on the osteoporosis drug to include a warning citing the increased risk of Fosamax femur fractures among patients.
When it comes to Fosamax side effects, understanding your legal options is critical for securing the compensation you deserve. Victims have rights, and a knowledgeable attorney can guide you through the complex legal system involved with cases like these.
Do I have a Fosamax Lawsuit?
The trial lawyers at The Senators (Ret.) Firm, LLP have decades of experience navigating through complex legislative and regulatory issues and litigating high stakes cases all over the nation. Our law firm focuses on the representation of plaintiffs in Fosamax lawsuits. We are currently accepting new cases in all 50 states.
Again, if you or a loved one has been injured by Fosamax, you should contact our lawyers immediately by clicking the link below or calling toll free 1-800-773-0849.
