Hi there, I’m currently working on the GUI of my game.
My player has to collect gears as he runs, and the amount of gears he has collected is being shown on the top left of the screen.
I know how to use Gui skin; at least the basics of it, but I’m having a little bit of trouble putting an image of a gear next to the text.
Like the subway surfers gui (coin count).
Any help would be appreciated. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
This has many implications. These include the following:
* It puts a latest possible date on an Out of Africa migration. This tends to disprove the hypothesis that there was an Out of Africa migration that failed ca. 75,000 years BP followed by a second Out of Africa migration that struck, ca. 50,000 years BP, that has been advanced by many. The recent trend has been to attribute all early evidence (such as Altai Neanderthal DNA showing admixture with modern humans ca. 100,000 years BP and archaeological traces in the Levant, the interior of Arabia and South Asia) of modern humans outside of Africa to a stillborn Out of Africa migration.
* It puts a latest possible date on Denisovan admixture with the ancestors of Australian Aboriginal people who, together with Papuans and Negrito populations from the Philippines have significant levels of Denisovan admixture today.
* It tends to make the megafauna extinction that followed the arrival of modern humans in Australia less immediate with as much as a 20,000 year gap between first contact and the extinction of some Australian megafauna species.
* It puts a latest possible date on behavioral modernity in anatomically modern humans. Almost all of the evidence used to put the start of the Upper Paleolithic era at around 50,000 years ago has subsequently been found more like 70,000 years ago. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
We have been reporting on AirTies for six years. The company has STB products for in-home distribution of content exploiting its mesh Wi-Fi technology. The latest Air 7410X is sampling now and will be the first OTT UltraHD system using Wi-Fi. The box can support UltraHD streaming and is based on a Broadcom chip. The package is very small, but has a lot of ventilation as the amount of heat generated is significant. Part of AirTies “secret sauce” in supporting UltraHD in such a small box is in managing the different components in the system and powering them down when they are not needed.
AirTies has recently made some significant design wins away from its Turkish base, and a large part of this is that the company’s architecture can supply 100Mb/sec of Wi-Fi bandwidth throughout the home. Chairman and co-Founder, Bülent Çelebi, pointed out that as many as 77% of TV viewers are also using their mobile devices at the same time, so providers have to ensure good Wi-Fi.
At the moment, the company has 3 x 3 aerials in its STBs, using 802.11ac to support 100Mb/s, but Çelebi said that the providers he is talking to expect to be supporting gigabit speeds to the home as a matter of routine in the next three years or so, and they want to provide that speed throughout the home. Aerials are likely to go up to 8 x 8 and because of the range restrictions for 802.11ac, it is possible that the technology will eventually get to the point where a dongle is in a power plug, with one in every room, in a mesh configuration. The company will also look at using powerline and arbitrate between the Wi-Fi and powerline data streams.
Çelebi told us that, increasingly, operators are looking to de-couple the Wi-Fi from the rest of its box because Wi-Fi demands are changing faster than the video. There are operators that have installed bases of 802.11g (let alone .11n or .11ac) numbering in the millions. Delivering OTT content by wireless from this base is a big challenge. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
Southwest Houston Whole House Remodel
This whole house remodel in Cambridge Green received a Texas Association of Builders 2024 Star Award for Best Whole House Renovation (150K-500K) in the Remodeler category.
The client’s objective was to reconfigure their home to accommodate their mother, creating separate living spaces. The project aimed to enhance functionality and accessibility while maintaining aesthetic appeal.
We moved walls to create two distinct living areas, relocated the kitchen, and incorporated unique features like Murphy doors and a super closet.
The kitchen was relocated 20 feet, featuring custom maple cabinets, quartz Calcutta Rimini countertops, and COREtec Pro Plus 7 Quincy Oak flooring. Bathrooms also boasted custom maple cabinets with European soft-close hardware and quartz countertops.
The reconfiguration improved accessibility and functionality, fostering separate living spaces for privacy and convenience. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

The Accumulator Manager tracks the following benefit limit accumulators:
- Number of visits
- Units of service performed
- Number of days
The Accumulator Manager accommodates accumulators matched to individual benefits and also the accrual of benefit utilization across multiple services; for example, a 30-visit limit per calendar year for any combined services in the following category: physical therapy, occupational therapy and/or speech therapy.
Authorization accumulatorsAuthorization accumulators are used to track the accrual of healthcare service utilization against pre-determined limits and targets and, like other types of accumulators, can be expressed in both financial and service utilization (visits, units, and so on) terms
The Accumulator Manager tracks the utilization of those services as they are reported during claims adjudication and can also be configured to further assist the plan in managing the care of these patients. For example, the Accumulator Manager is designed to communicate with the health plan clinical staff when the patient reaches a certain threshold prior to meeting or exceeding the authorized service target, thereby facilitating improved proactive clinical management and continuity of care. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

‘The Beggar’ is a story of the transformation of a beggar Lushkoff. It revolves around three characters – Lushkoff, Sergei and Olga. Lushkoff approaches Sergei, begs for money and tells him he was formerly a teacher. Sergei shouts at him, as Lushkoff had told him the last time that he was formerly a student. Ashamed, Lushkoff reveals that he used to sing in a Russin Choir, and he was sent away for drunkenness. Sergei gives him work under the assistance of Olga, his cook. Lushkoff is transformed from a person who is a beggar by choice to a man who earns a decent salary.
Think about it
Question 1. Has Lushkoff become a beggar by circumstance or by choice?
Answer: Lushkoff has become a beggar by choice. Formerly, he used to sing in a Russian choir and was sent away for drunkenness. Instead of searching for another job, Lushkoff decided to become a beggar.
Question 2. What reasons does he give Sergei for telling lies?
Answer: Lushkoff says that he was sent away from the Russian choir because of his being an alcoholic. He tells lies because if he told this truth, no one would ever help him or give him money.
Question 3. Is Lushkoff a willing worker? Why, then, does he agree to chop wood for Sergei?
Answer: No, he is not a willing worker. Alcohol has undermined his strength, and he has no inclination to do any work. He agrees to chop wood for Sergei not because he is hungry or wants to work but because he is ashamed and trapped by his own words.
Question 4. Sergei says, “I am happy that my words have taken effect.” Why does he say so? Is he right in saying this?
Answer: Sergei says, “I am happy that my words have taken effect.” He says so because he thinks that he is the reason why Lushkoff became a notary from being a beggar. This is partly true, but Sergei is not the only one who made Lushkoff become who he is now.
Lushkoff says that although he is obliged to Sergei for showing him the right path and letting him do the work of chopping wood at his home, his transformation is a result of Sergei’s cook, Olga. She was the one who chopped wood and not Lushkoff.
Question 5. Lushkoff is earning thirty-five roubles a month. How is he obliged to Sergei for this?
Answer: Lushkoff is earning thirty-five roubles a month. He is obliged to Sergei because if he hadn’t come to Sergei, then he still might have been a beggar telling the same old lies of being a teacher or a student. But Sergei helped him get out of the pit by giving him work.
Question 6. During their conversation, Lushkoff reveals that Sergei’s cook, Olga, is responsible for the positive change in him. How has Olga saved Lushkoff?
Answer: Sergei took Lushkoff to his home and gave him the task of chopping wood. He asked Olga, his cook, to take Lushkoff to the wood shed and to let him chop wood.
When Lushkoff becomes a notary and accidentally meets Sergei, he tells him that Olga was the one who chopped wood all that while. She felt pity for Lushkoff and did the chopping herself instead of letting Lushkoff do it.
Lushkoff says that her kindness changed him to be a better person and to earn his living. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
This dream may symbolize a fear or anxiety about the safety and well-being of your granddaughter. The adults walking with you could represent your own sense of responsibility and protection towards her. The wall hiding the highway of big rigs could represent the dangers and risks that exist in the world, and your granddaughter’s carefree running could symbolize her innocence and vulnerability. The first rig narrowly missing her could represent a close call or a warning sign, while the second rig smashing her into pieces could symbolize a tragic and irreversible event. The fact that you initially thought the pieces were small could suggest a sense of denial or disbelief about the severity of the situation. However, the discovery of her frail body in the gutter could represent the harsh reality and finality of the loss. This dream may be reflecting your fears and concerns about your granddaughter’s safety and well-being, and the importance of being vigilant and protective in her life. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

This formula is sourced from grass-fed, pasture-raised cows in Argentina and Brazil. Rigorous testing by outside laboratories is performed to ensure purity. This formula is easy to use and is nearly flavorless and odorless. Our cold liquid soluble formulation does not clump or congeal so you can enjoy the benefits of our formula in your favorite cold or warm beverage. Because it can be mixed into hot or cold, you can mix this formula in your favorite drinks, smoothies, cereals, oatmeal, or any other foods that you regularly enjoy.
This formula is crucial as we age and the body’s natural ability to produce connective tissue diminishes after the age of 25. This low molecular weight protein peptide formula is easily digested and supports the body’s natural healing process.
This formula is also beneficial in strengthening the synovial membrane between the joints and in maintaining healthy cartilage weakened by overuse through impact and stress. Cartilage and joints are constantly being broken down and replaced. When a person does not have enough raw materials in their diet to combat the collagen breakdown, the joints begin to wear out.
Continuous daily intake of this formula may benefit nails, hair, skin, ligaments, tendons and cartilage. ‡
Manufactured in a US FDA inspected facility. GMP Compliant. Purity and Potency Guaranteed! We use the highest quality raw materials available. Testing is done at various stages of production.

Have you ever wanted to turn back the clock? Well, with Beef Protein Peptides, that dream can become a reality! This unique formula contains low molecular weight peptides, glutamine, and fiber—all of which are crucial for supporting our body’s connective tissue as we age. Our protein peptides are sourced from grass-fed, pasture-raised cows, and our cold liquid soluble formulation does not clump or congeal. So, let’s dive into the details of this amazing product and learn why it’s the perfect addition to your daily routine.
Connective tissues are what hold us together—literally! Our muscles and bones would be nothing without the support of these tissues. They provide structure to our bodies and help us move around. As we age, however, our body starts to lose its ability to produce these essential tissues. That’s why it’s important to find natural ways to support our connective tissue health.
The cattle come from local farmers from Buenos Aires who nurture only pasture-raised cattle. Rigorous testing by outside laboratories is performed to ensure purity. Glutamine helps restore energy levels while fiber helps improve digestion. The unique low molecular weight protein peptide, glutamine, and fiber mixture in this formula is crucial as we age and the body’s natural ability to produce connective tissue diminishes after age 25. This means that these components are necessary for injury recovery and muscle building—two things that become harder as we get older.
The great thing about this product is that it can be mixed into hot or cold beverages—which opens up a world of possibilities! You can add Beef Protein Peptides to your favorite drinks, smoothies, cereals, oatmeal…or any other foods you regularly enjoy. And because it doesn’t clump or congeal when mixed into either hot or cold items, you don’t have to worry about texture issues or strange tastes in your food items.
Incorporating these protein peptides into your diet can help with injury recovery and muscle building—as well as promote better bone health due to its high content of collagen peptides! Collagen helps keep skin looking young and vibrant while also supporting joint health. As an added bonus, many people report feeling more energized after adding Beef Protein Peptides into their daily routine!
All in all, it looks like Beef Protein Peptides might just be the fountain of youth you’ve been looking for! Not only will they promote better bone health due to its high content of collagen peptides but many people report feeling more energized after adding them into their daily routine. Plus there are so many ways you can incorporate them into your life—it couldn’t get any simpler! So what are you waiting for? Give beef protein peptides a try today for all these amazing benefits!

There are many options available to deposit money in an online casino. Credit cards and cash transfers usually take a few days to process, while bank wires and paper checks can take a few days to two weeks. However, processing times for these methods vary between casinos. You may find that certain brands and companies accept different currencies than others. Considering this, make sure to read the casino’s terms and conditions before deciding on which payment method to use.
Overview of online casinos
The growth of online casinos has benefited the industry greatly due to the rise of the popularity of online banking. In addition, players can now enjoy instant payments and payouts at online casinos. Lockdown measures have also increased the volume of traffic to the gaming industry. Furthermore, a similar trend has been observed in the offerings of online casinos in the global market. While this trend may be worrying for some, it is good news for players. Read on for an overview of online casinos.
There are a number of different reasons to play at an online casino, and the main appeal is the sheer variety of games available. Try a few different games and find one you enjoy. Even if you don’t find a favorite game, there is likely to be something new to try out! The variety of games will keep you coming back for more! Here are the most popular casino games:
When playing casino games online, the choice of payment methods is crucial. Some accept only credit cards, while others only accept e-wallets or Bitcoin. Many casinos accept only a few types of payments, including bank wires and credit cards. In this article, we will discuss some of the most common forms of casino payments and withdrawals. For those who do not have a credit card, we’ll briefly touch on other payment methods that are popular for casino online play.
The House edge when playing casino online is the house’s statistical advantage over you. If you play smart, you can lower this advantage. Learn which games have the lowest house edge and stick with them. It’s possible to win frequently if you play games with low house edges. But how can you do that? Here are some tips. Let’s take a look at the most common casino games and how to reduce the house edge.
Depending on the deposit method you use, the minimum deposit for casino online may vary. Most sites support several different options, such as credit and debit cards, e-wallets like PayPal, and more. Among these methods, Apple Pay is becoming increasingly popular, especially among US players. It not only offers convenience, but it also safeguards sensitive information. While not all online casinos accept Apple Pay, most accept it and offer enhanced bonuses to customers using this payment option. However, eChecks are not instantaneous, and can take up to three days to process.
Casino bonuses are a great way to start playing for real money. You won’t have to deposit any money to take advantage of the bonus, but many sites will require you to play through a certain amount before you can cash out your winnings. Bonuses at casino online are great for testing out new casinos. However, there are many terms and conditions you should know before you cash out the bonus. Read the terms and conditions of the casino you’re interested in to avoid getting ripped off. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
What stands to be a great example of smarter development for downtown Raleigh, the still to come The L Building has been on hold for almost two years now. This office over retail project has suffered the same financial difficulties that other canceled or on hold projects have faced.
The L building, in its current plan, will wrap the Wake County parking deck that sits on McDowell Street, shown in the picture above. The deck, built to support the new county Justice Center now under construction, is open and currently in use. While the publicly funded parking deck happened, The L site now lays empty and the developer continues to ask for more extensions to get the books straightened out.
The L, if built, will hide the parking deck along McDowell and Davie Streets but for now we have a rather large gray wall. For almost two years, this wall has been naked but that should change soon.
The latest extension, until May 2013, was approved by the Wake County Board of Commissioners in their December 6th, 2010 meeting with certain conditions. Looking at the meeting minutes, here are some of the more interesting of those conditions:
- Developer must obtain an extension until at least November 2013 from the City of Raleigh.
- “Developer must obtain all required approvals from the City of Raleigh and pay the cost to design, fabricate, install, and maintain full-height durable banners substantially screening the entire unfinished east and north facades of the existing parking deck … Banner installation to be complete by April 1, 2011. In the event of default by the Developer, the banners become the property of the County. County reserves the right to reject banner graphic content.”
To the best of my online search abilities, the banner discussion has not made it to the city yet. The relationship with the city and Empire properties is a solid one so there is a good chance it will be approved by them as well. Below is a rendering of the parking deck with the proposed banners.
Expect the naked wall to be covered up in time for Spring this year.

(Dublin, Ohio) — The City of Dublin welcomes the community to a dedication ceremony for the Brown-Harris Cemetery, which was rediscovered during a land survey near Shier Rings Road.
After this historically Black cemetery was uncovered in 2020, the City of Dublin partnered with the Brown and Harris families and engineering firm EMH&T to preserve the site and create a monument that properly illustrates the space’s significance and importance to Dublin’s history.
The June 28 ceremony comes after years of strategic restoration and preservation and coincides with the time of year our country is focused on commemorations and celebrations of Juneteenth and African American history.
“This is such a historic moment for the Dublin community, as descendants of the Brown and Harris families will be in person for this dedication, showing how our history lives on through our present,” says Dublin City Manager Megan O’Callaghan. “We are grateful to have this opportunity to properly remember the families’ ancestors and commemorate this land as part of Dublin’s history in the process.”
Located at 6540 Shier Rings Road, the cemetery includes at least 22 confirmed graves. It was lost in the early 1920s, but the finding of a grave marker from 1854 helped rediscover the land’s true purpose.
Brown-Harris Cemetery Dedication
11 a.m. Friday, June 28
6540 Shier Rings Road, Dublin
To access the cemetery, please follow posted signs adjacent to The Ohio State Outpatient Care Dublin Facility, which is located at 6700 University Blvd.

The cat's out of the bag.
Boasting some of the world's driest powder, varied terrain and bearable chairlift wait times, Japan is quickly becoming one of the best ski destinations in the world. Here are four reasons to do your ski instructor training course in Japan.
1. A guaranteed paid job offer
We're not going to beat around the bush. The ski instructor industry is a tough nut to crack when you go it alone. A lot of ski resorts won't hire instructors without a few years of industry experience. But that's why EA Ski and Snowboard exists, to help newly qualified instructors secure paid work.
Ski resorts in Japan are known for treating their staff by offering consistent work hours and okay pay. Some ski resorts, like Club Med, will pay their team a fixed full-time salary. If securing full-time work after training is essential to you, Japan might be a safe bet.
2. World-class terrain
You won’t find steeps as you would in Canada. But trust us when we say you’ll find powder….lots and lots of it!
Fun fact - 73% of Japan is mountainous and over 1000 ski resorts, so, you're spoiled for choice when it comes to terrain. Each ski field offers something different. You can find excellent piste skiing, well-groomed trails, tree runs, gnarly bump lines, and of course, that all-important back-country terrain.
3. Um, it’s Japan
If Japan's not on your bucket list, it should be.
Japan is a place where ancient tradition blends seamlessly with urban city life like it was the most natural thing in the world. And there's something to please everyone. In Japan, you'll find everything from tropical beaches to snow-capped ski mountains.
Underground music scenes, to Buddhist temples. In most urban centres, such as Tokyo and Osaka, offer a vibrant 24-hour drinking and dining scenes perfect for foodies. While small towns just on the outskirts are rich with culture and tradition if you're more of a history nut. Japan has many tourist festivals right throughout the year. Two ones not to miss are the Sapporo Ice Festival every winter and Nozawa Onsens Fire Festival.
It's also worth mentioning, getting around Japan is accessible and affordable. You can travel from the top of Honshu right to the bottom at speeds of 320km/h thanks to the network of high-speed train lines spread across the country.
4. Kanpai ski - the Japanese take on après ski
Respect is the backbone of Japanese culture, and it's ingrained in their rituals and traditions. On-duty ski instructors are be expected to conduct themselves professionally. However, employers understand and even encourage their staff to enjoy themselves off-duty.
You might be familiar with the phrase après ski if you've skied in Europe. But, you're probably yet to experience (what we've endearingly titled) kanpai ski.
At night, you'll find the streets filled with guests and resort staff sipping on sake in all-you-can-drink karaoke bars. Kanpai ski is a tremendous allure for ski resorts, and as a staff member, you'll be encouraged to join in.
We’re now accepting applications for ski instructor internships in Japan for the 2018/2019 ski season. Spaces are limited, and fill fast. Find out if you’re eligible for a ski instructor internship with EA Ski and Snowboard below. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
Through out the school year your child will be given homework assignments. Most homework assignments should not take more than 15 minutes to complete. Homework is designed to rwinforce a concept we are learning in school. Therefore homework can consist of math, language arts or writing assignements. Homework is fue the next school day. If your child forgets their homework I have your child redo the assignment at recess. I never give homework on Fridays. Occasionally, there will be projects, which will be due in a certain time frame, to be completed at home.
In addition to classroom assignments and to help improve reading abitily, students will bring books home to read. Each student will bring a book home that is on their own reading level. If your child goes to Reading Center, they will bring books home from the reading teacher.

A casino is a building or room where gambling activities take place. Casinos are also known as gaming houses, a name derived from the French word for “game.” A casino can also refer to a group of games played in a public setting, such as the game of poker. Casinos may also be combined with hotels, resorts, restaurants, and other entertainment venues. They may offer a variety of casino games, such as slots, video poker, blackjack, and roulette. In addition to these games, some casinos feature live entertainment, such as stand-up comedy or concerts.
Casinos are a significant source of revenue for many cities and states. The revenues from gambling help to pay for local services, and in some cases allow governments to avoid raising taxes in other areas. However, there are a number of negative effects associated with gambling. For example, compulsive gamblers often generate a disproportionate amount of profits for casinos, and some people become addicted to gambling and experience serious financial problems as a result.
While gambling can be a fun and exciting activity, it can also have a negative impact on mental health. It is important for players to be aware of the potential risks and seek professional help if they are experiencing symptoms of depression or anxiety. In addition, playing casino games for long periods of time can lead to a sedentary lifestyle and increase the risk of obesity. Therefore, it is important for players to take breaks and engage in other forms of physical activity.
Gambling is a popular pastime for many people and can be a great way to socialize with friends. It can also provide a feeling of excitement and achievement, especially when winning. However, it is important to be aware of the potential risks of gambling and to take steps to protect your mental health.
In general, casinos are designed to maximize profits and limit losses. The house edge, or expected profit, is built into every game. This means that, on average, the casino will win more money than it loses. While it is possible to win large sums of money at a casino, the odds are very slim.
Many casinos employ various methods to ensure the safety and security of their patrons. For example, some use cameras to monitor their patrons. Others have catwalks that allow surveillance personnel to look down through one-way glass at the tables and machines. Additionally, most casinos have a security team that watches over the games, looking for anything unusual or suspicious.
Some of the largest casinos in the world have hotels, nongambling restaurants and attractions, swimming pools, spas, and more. They also have impressive architecture and decor. Some of the most famous casinos have even been featured in films and TV shows, including the Monte Carlo Casino, which was featured in Ben Mezrich’s book Busting Vegas and the film of the same name. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

elcome to the home of Eclipse Art Glass, featuring the stained glass artwork of Jeremy Walker. My studio is located in Longmont, Colorado. Here, I draw inspiration from nature, spirituality and archetypal mythology to create freelance and commission work, each piece thoughtfully designed and handcrafted to express a unique artistic vision. A successfully designed work of stained glass adds a unique sense of beauty, character and inspiration to a space.
I love how stained glass artwork has so many different aspects to how it can impact the observer. It can extend and compliment architecture. It can make use of variations in texture, opacity and iridescence to create a dynamic experience based on lighting conditions. It can communicate profound meaning through the use of visual metaphor. It can even approximate photorealism, as shown here. In my abstract work, I enjoy exploring the evolutionary dance of polarities in their struggle for integration. My designs invite emergent meaning and I view them as teachers.
While I do have some freelance work available for sale, the majority of my work is commission-based. I invite you to view my gallery and reach out to me for a conversation about what inspires you. The commission design process is an exciting journey where we get to play with your vision and bring intuitive inspiration to the design. It is always a delight and I am always surprised by what emerges.
I now offer lessons as well, for those who wish to learn my techniques. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
Embrace Eco Friendly Athletic Wear with Organic Cotton
Have you ever stopped to think about the materials your athletic wear is made from? If you haven't, now is the time to start. With rising global temperatures and climate change, it's more important than ever to choose sustainable materials when shopping for athletic apparel. One of the most sustainable materials on the market today is 100% organic cotton. Let's take a closer look at why this material makes such an excellent choice for eco-friendly apparel.
What Is Organic Cotton?
Organic cotton is grown without any chemicals or pesticides, making it much better for the environment than traditional cotton, which uses chemical fertilizers and insecticides that can pollute local water sources and harm wildlife. The process used to produce organic cotton also requires much less water than other forms of cotton production, thus helping to reduce water consumption and protect valuable water resources.
The Benefits of Organic Cotton for Athletic Wear
Organic cotton offers many benefits for athletic wear. First and foremost, it's soft and comfortable on skin, making it an ideal choice for children who may be sensitive to certain fabrics. Additionally, organic cotton is breathable and lightweight, so athletes stay cool even during intense workouts or competitions. It also has great durability and will last longer than traditional fabrics like polyester or nylon. Finally, organic cotton is free from harmful dyes and chemicals that could irritate skin or cause skin rashes – something that athletes need to take into consideration when choosing their clothing!
Where To Find Organic Cotton Athletic Apparel?
Organic cotton athletic apparel is becoming more available every day as more companies begin to recognize its environmental benefits. Look for brands like Patagonia or Eco Sports that offer 100% organic cotton items in their collections – these are great choices if you're looking for quality products at a reasonable price. You can also find smaller companies that specialize in eco-friendly clothing made from organic materials like hemp or organic bamboo – these can be great options if you want something unique! And don't forget about secondhand stores either – thrift shops often have lots of gently used items made from sustainable fabrics that are perfect for activewear!
Organic cotton is a fantastic option when searching for eco-friendly athletic wear because it provides comfort, breathability, durability, and style without sacrificing sustainability. It's a win-win situation; athletes stay safe from irritating chemicals while protecting our planet from unnecessary pollution caused by traditional fabrics. Everyone wins when we make better choices! So next time you go shopping for activewear, look for items made from 100% organic cotton – your body (and our planet) will thank you! | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

Background and Importance Epclusa is a two-drug combination administered as a single daily pill containing Velpatasvir and Sofosbuvir used to treat de Hepatitis C. The treatment duration is 12 weeks and the cure rates are from 97% to 100% in those patients without cirrhosis or with compensated cirrhosis.
Based on data obtained from phase 3 clinical studies, the percentage of patients experiencing any serious adverse event was 3.2%. The most common adverse reactions observed are headache and fatigue.
Pharmacovigilance collects information, and analyses and notifies case of suspected adverse drug reactions (ADRs) to prevent them occurring in the future
Aim and Objectives To describe a case of sleepiness in a patient treated with Epclusa and establish its possible association.
Material and Methods We describe a case of an 72-year-old woman diagnosed with hepatitis C with compensated cirrhosis and treated with Epclusa. In May 2022, before starting the treatment with Epclusa, her home medication was checked at the Pharmacy Department, which include atorvastatin, enalapril and omperazole; pointing out to separate the intake of omeprazole and Epclusa 4 hours and proving there no were any drug interactions. After 16 days receiving the treatment with Eplcusa, she was referred to the emergency department presenting sleepiness and general deterioration. As a result, she was diagnosed with common cold and treated with amoxicilin. It also coincided with constipation, which spontaneously resolved within two days. Finally Epclusa treatment was stopped.
Results 4 days after, she reported improvement in sleepiness after discontinuation of treatment, although the iatrogenic origin cannot be guaranteed since it has also coincided with catarrhal symptoms and constipation, both situations in resolution. Naranjo’s algorithms establish the causality relationship as possible (score of 2). The Spanish pharmacovigilance centre was notified.
Conclusion and Relevance The European Medicines Agency’s technical sheet for Epclusa does not describe sleepiness as an ADR. Patient could confuse fatigue with sleepiness in dealing with subjective symptoms. The RPC reported this case as the only Epclusa ADR notified in our country. The reporting of ADRs in hospitals is very important because innovative new drugs are usually used, severe ADRs are most likely to be seen in hospitals and it can be detected early helping others how to act.

If the thought of spending hours at the gym isn’t appealing, why not make it fun by teaming up with your buddies for a fat-busting session of BodyAttack? It’s a lively and effective way to get in shape.
Many wonder about the best workout for their fitness goals. Today, let’s explore the world of Body Attack, looking at its benefits, how it differs from Body Pump, and why it could be the perfect addition to your fitness routine.
What Is Body Attack Good For?
Body Attack is a high-energy, cardio-intensive workout that combines elements of aerobics, sports conditioning, and strength training. Developed by Les Mills, this dynamic workout is designed to improve cardiovascular fitness, agility, and overall strength.
Unlike many traditional workouts, Body Attack involves performing a series of athletic movements set to an energizing soundtrack, making it an engaging and motivating exercise experience.
The Benefits of Body Attack:
Body Attack is a cardiovascular powerhouse, elevating your heart rate and improving endurance. The combination of intense aerobic exercises helps strengthen your heart and lungs, leading to better overall cardiovascular health.
If weight loss is on your agenda, Body Attack might be your new best friend. The high-intensity nature of the workout ensures that you burn a significant number of calories during and after the session, contributing to effective weight management.
Total Body Workout:
One of the key advantages of Body Attack is its ability to target multiple muscle groups simultaneously. From legs and core to arms and shoulders, every part of your body is engaged, ensuring a comprehensive and efficient workout.
Improved Coordination and Agility:
The athletic and dynamic movements involved in Body Attack enhance your coordination and agility. This not only benefits your athletic performance but also translates into improved daily activities requiring balance and flexibility.
The combination of music, movement, and the group atmosphere in a Body Attack class can provide a significant mental boost. The endorphins released during the workout can help reduce stress and anxiety, leaving you with a sense of accomplishment.
Body Attack vs. Body Pump: Highlighting the Differences:
Now that we’ve explored the benefits of Body Attack, let’s address a common point of confusion: the difference between Body Attack and Body Pump.
1. Focus and Intensity:
Body Attack: Primarily a cardiovascular workout with a focus on agility and endurance. It involves dynamic movements and high-intensity intervals.
Body Pump: More centred around strength training, using weights to target specific muscle groups. It typically involves fewer cardio elements than Body Attack.
2. Equipment Used:
Body Attack: Usually, no equipment is required, making it accessible to all fitness levels. Movements often mimic sports-related activities.
Body Pump: Involves the use of a barbell and weight plates. The focus is on resistance training, aiming to increase muscle strength and tone.
3. Music and Atmosphere:
Body Attack: Known for its vibrant and energetic music, creating a lively atmosphere. The group dynamic can be highly motivating.
Body Pump: Music is used to maintain a consistent pace during strength exercises. The atmosphere is focused on controlled movements and muscle engagement.
Making Body Attack Work for You: Practical Tips:
Start at Your Own Pace:
If you’re new to Body Attack, don’t be intimidated. Start at your own pace, follow the instructor’s cues, and gradually increase intensity as you become more comfortable with the movements.
Invest in Good Shoes:
The dynamic movements in Body Attack can put stress on your joints. Invest in a good pair of athletic shoes with proper support to minimize the risk of injuries.
Hydrate and Refuel:
Given the high intensity of the workout, staying hydrated is crucial. Ensure you drink enough water before, during, and after the session. Also, refuel with a balanced meal or snack to aid recovery.
The group atmosphere in a Body Attack class can be a powerful motivator. Feed off the energy of those around you and use it to push yourself to new limits.
Body Attack is a super exciting way to get fit and feel awesome. Whether you want a healthier heart, to lose some weight, or just have fun staying active, Body Attack is the way to go. BodyAttack keeps your metabolism going, helping your body burn calories. Plus, it will burn all those calories. So, wear your sneakers, play your favourite workout songs, and let’s have some fitness fun with Body Attack! | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
Kickboxing, a sport that blends elements of martial arts and boxing, has surged in popularity as a form of fitness, self-defense, and competitive combat. In this comprehensive guide, we delve into the exciting world of kickboxing, exploring its origins, techniques, benefits, and much more. Whether you’re a curious beginner or a seasoned practitioner, join us as we unravel the intricacies of this dynamic discipline.
Introduction to Kickboxing
Kickboxing isn’t just about throwing punches and kicks; it’s a holistic approach to physical and mental well-being. Originating from various traditional martial arts, evolved into a structured discipline focused on striking techniques using hands, feet, elbows, and knees.
Exploring the Roots
Kickboxing traces its roots to ancient martial arts practices from around the world, including Muay Thai from Thailand, Karate from Japan, and Taekwondo from Korea. These diverse influences contributed to the development of modern boxing, which emphasizes fluid movement, agility, and precision.
The Essence of Kickboxing
At its core, kickboxing is about more than just physical prowess. It’s about discipline, focus, and perseverance. Through rigorous training and dedication, practitioners hone their skills while cultivating mental resilience and self-confidence.
Getting Started: Essential Techniques
Embarking on your kickboxing journey requires mastering fundamental techniques that form the foundation of this dynamic sport.
Stance and Footwork
A proper stance is crucial for balance, mobility, and defense in boxing. Adopt a stable stance with your feet shoulder-width apart, knees slightly bent, and weight evenly distributed between both legs. Maintain light footwork, allowing you to move swiftly and evade incoming strikes.
Punches: Jab, Cross, and Hook
Mastering the art of punching is essential for effective striking in boxing. The jab serves as a quick, straight punch to keep your opponent at bay, while the cross delivers power from the rear hand. Add versatility to your striking with hooks, executed with a bent arm targeting the sides of your opponent’s head or body.
Kicks: Roundhouse and Front Kick
Boxing incorporates a variety of kicks to target different areas of the body with precision and power. The roundhouse kick utilizes the shin or instep to strike the opponent’s midsection or legs, while the front kick employs the ball of the foot for quick, direct attacks to the torso or face.
Defense: Blocking and Parrying
Effective defense is as crucial as an offense in boxing. Learn to block incoming strikes using your arms to shield vulnerable areas, such as the head and body. Practice parrying, a technique that redirects your opponent’s strikes away from their intended target, creating openings for counterattacks.
The Benefits of Kickboxing
Beyond its physical demands, kickboxing offers a multitude of benefits for both body and mind.
Kickboxing is a high-intensity cardiovascular workout that elevates heart rate, improves circulation, and enhances overall cardiovascular health. Engaging in regular boxing sessions strengthens the heart and lungs, increasing endurance and stamina.
Strength and Conditioning
The dynamic movements involved in kickboxing engage multiple muscle groups, including the core, arms, legs, and back. Through repetitive striking and defensive maneuvers, practitioners develop lean muscle mass, power, and functional strength.
Stress Relief and Mental Clarity
Kickboxing serves as a powerful outlet for stress relief and mental rejuvenation. The focused intensity of training allows practitioners to channel negative energy into positive action, promoting mental clarity, focus, and emotional well-being.
Beyond the Ring: Kickboxing for Self-Defense
While kickboxing is a popular sport and fitness activity, its practical applications extend to real-world self-defense scenarios.
Boxing training enhances situational awareness, teaching practitioners to assess potential threats and react decisively to protect themselves and others. Heightened awareness of surroundings and body language empower individuals to anticipate and defuse potentially dangerous situations.
Effective Striking Techniques
The striking techniques mastered in kickboxing provide practical self-defense skills against attackers of varying sizes and strengths. From rapid jabs to powerful kicks, practitioners learn to deliver precise strikes to vulnerable areas, incapacitating assailants and creating opportunities to escape.
In conclusion, boxing transcends mere physical exercise. It’s a transformative journey of self-discovery, empowerment, and growth. By embracing the principles of discipline, perseverance, and respect, practitioners unlock their full potential, both inside and outside the ring. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
While there are many steps in the interior design process, if we step back and analyze why we make some choices—it is quite formulaic.
Behind each choice, we’re always thinking of the style and design personalities of each client, but give an analytical creative space and she will get all mathematical about her art.
So what’s the formula? It has three primary elements:
A Formula for Color
We have our favorite color, one we love. But we all study enough design to know that one does not just throw five turquoise pillows into a neutral living room and call it colorful. We don’t pick one color as our accent—we plan a party.
The party starts with the guest of honor, let’s say chartreuse. I pick this because it can be hard when you love something zingy—but we shouldn’t be scared of making our favorite thing work.
I often use paint swatches to get this color pairing juices flowing, but then start to translate these into actual items as we make selections. Art, wallpaper, and soft goods are where the majority of our colors hang out. And, of course, when someone lets me paint a room top to bottom—trim and all—in a beautiful hue. Notice how the intense color is present but not dominating.
A Formula for Layers
Not everything in the space can partake in the color part of the party, but we can be thoughtful when choosing the more neutrally-toned items. Metals and natural materials are so lovely for adding a soft, textural layer.
Why just do a wood side table when you can choose an olive or burl wood veneer? An onyx or alabaster bowl hums hello in a way a simple white ceramic just can’t. And when the weather gets cold, it’s always a good idea to throw on a faux fur throw.
A Formula for Juxtaposition
Okay, I get that “juxtaposition” is a big word—and somewhat abstract thought—but stay with me. Just like there is a beautiful contrast between certain colors, I really love the interest generated when placing disparate items together. They bring out the best in each other—the special qualities in each seem to shine.
Antiques with modern lamps, a goopy oil painting over a crisp console table…fantastic possibilities.

Following the success of supporting group colleagues internally, RedArc is now launching a new service to companies to support Mental Health First Aiders (MHFAs) in recognition that employers have a duty of care to safeguard not only those who seek mental health support but also those who are involved in facilitating it.
Support in practice
RedArc’s mental health specialists have been supporting fifteen MHFAs within their group since the summer: everyone reported that their confidence in the role had increased and all valued having access to a mental health nurse for expert guidance to help their colleagues as well as support for themselves.
The need for support is set to increase
Mental Health First Aid England, the largest provider of mental health first aid training in the UK, has alone already trained 500k individuals and is aiming to reach 1 in 10 people. This could leave a large cohort of employees feeling unsupported and with concerns about how best to assist colleagues with mental health issues, so the need for professional support is only going to increase.
Increased pressures of Covid and extended remote working will increase the need further.
Christine Husbands, managing director for RedArc, said: “The position of an MHFA is a voluntary one and is in addition to an individual’s day-to-day role, and as that individual is not a mental health practitioner, it is absolutely vital that they have clear parameters and effective support in place. Without the right support, the responsibility of helping others can sometimes become a heavy burden and cause the MHFA to question their role and easily become detrimental to their own mental health.”
RedArc’s MHFA support scheme
Led by an experienced registered mental health nurse, the service is based on the principles of clinical supervision and includes both group and one-to-one sessions for MHFAs.
- Small group sessions held monthly encourages an organisation’s MHFAs to network as a group and provide peer support, as well as being a forum to share concerns, learnings, useful sources of information, and ensure MHFAs understand and manage the boundaries of their role.
- MHFAs will come across a wide range of issues and they can’t be expected to know about all available support. Expert mental health nurses can give specific advice and guidance on support available, be that within internal employee benefits or external support such as the NHS Crisis Team or specialist charities
- Individual guidance is given to MHFAs, where they’re able to discuss personal concerns and receive advice as well as sign-posting to appropriate services and resources for their own wellbeing.
Pressures faced by MHFAs
A study by The University of Nottingham & Institution of Occupational Safety and Health (IOSH) revealed that many MHFAs experience similar concerns to those in RedArc’s findings – with specific issues around lack of clarity over boundaries and scope of work.
RedArc’s nurses also find that there is often potential for MHFAs to go above and beyond the boundaries of their role to help an employee who is struggling, and a danger that employees misinterpret the role as a source of ongoing support. Other issues faced by MHFAs include becoming overwhelmed or adversely affected by the problems and experiences of others, as well as being overly concerned about how best to support colleagues when they are faced with a multitude of wide-ranging issues.
Christine concluded: “MHFAs can be a key asset within an organisation’s mental health strategy but they are not immune from the pressures of the workplace or everyday life themselves.
“Every organisation that has encouraged its employees to become MHFAs and invested in their training, should ensure that it continues to offer access to regular and ongoing professional support, to safeguard both the MHFAs themselves as well as enabling them to better help their colleagues.” | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

French wine is probably more in demand than any other wine in the world. Bordeaux is only a few kilometres away and many growers are waiting for you with tastings in the immediate vicinity.
Domaine de Lancement
Somewhat further away in Thézac (approx. 43 km) is our 2nd recommendation - also organic wine. A tasting in the Domaine de Lancement can be combined perfectly well with an excursion to the beautiful town of Tournon-d'Agenais. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
International ratings agency S&P has announced that Israel's credit rating and rating outlook will remain unchanged at AA-/A-1+ and stable, respectively. This is positive news for Israel, which will be able to continue raising debt on more convenient terms and at relatively low interest rates. As part of its considerations, S&P cited Israel's strong macroeconomic performance including its low level of debt and stable balance of payments. RELATED ARTICLES Netanyahu tries to convince S&P not to cut rating Moody's SVP: Israel needs a strong judicial system The AA- credit rating is higher than Moody's rating for Israel of A1. Last month Moody's lowered Israel's credit outlook from positive to stable because of the political divisions in the country over the planned judicial overhaul. On the political situation in Israel, S&P said, "Our basic scenario assumes that some sort of consensus will be created that will allow coping with the political tensions around the issue." Although the rating and outlook remain unchanged, S&P has sharply cut Israel's GDP growth forecast to 1.5% in 2023 because of the domestic political disputes and the global economic slowdown. Israel's economy grew 6.5% last year and the Bank of Israel's growth forecast is for 2.5%-3% in 2023. Earlier this week the IMF cut Israel's 2023 growth forecast from 2.9% to 2.3%. S&P sees Israel's growth climbing to 3.5% next year as the tech sector recovers.

How Does it Compare to Natural Gas and Ammonia?
In our first blog on hydrogen, we briefly addressed the topics of interest in hydrogen; the varied colors of hydrogen; the capacity units for hydrogen production; commercial experience for the various technology routes; the economic comparison between green and blue hydrogen. In this second of five short blogs we will address, again without going deeply into the weeds, the comparative characteristics of hydrogen to understand its place and ranking as an alternative fuel for the future.
Understanding the Numbers
For the sake of ease of comparison, we assume natural gas is 100% methane. First, some of the common properties are shown below:
Note 1: Gasoline, by comparison, has an energy density gravimetric of approximately 18,660 Btu/lb. and volumetric energy density of approximately 858,470 Btu/ft3. In situations such as some parts of the transportation world where weight not volume is the overriding constraint, hydrogen as a fuel could be advantageous. However, it is worth noting that while hydrogen has a good gravimetric (by weight) energy density, it has a poor volumetric energy compared to other fuels.
There are some safety and environmental issues that are relevant for the expanding hydrogen economy.
Hydrogen is the smallest molecule. As such it will find opportunities for leakage from joints, seals, etc. that other larger molecules won’t. While extensive experience exists for dealing with a hydrogen environment, it is one that even the most experienced organizations find challenging e.g., NASA’s recent efforts with the Artemis rocket launch.
Flammability & Autoignition
Hydrogen compared to methane has a flammability range that is significantly wider than methane and an autoignition temperature significantly lower. Thus, the opportunity for combustion and explosions is higher. On the plus side, being the lightest molecule, a hydrogen leak in an open environment disperses rapidly into the atmosphere. However, in a closed environment without adequate safe ventilation such as in buildings, it is extremely dangerous. Further, unlike most other combustibles, pure hydrogen burns with almost a clear flame making burning leaks almost undetectable.
Therefore, applications that involve hydrogen will require a major emphasis be placed on safety addressing such things as need for frequent inspection and maintenance, containment, leak detection, ventilation of areas where H2 can accumulate, elimination of all likely sources of ignition, and formal operator training.
Hydrogen embrittlement occurs as interaction between hydrogen and ferrous metals at certain temperatures and pressures. Embrittlement can lead to yield strength deterioration of the base metal. Thus, when considering using hydrogen in applications where it was not previously employed the impact must be carefully evaluated.
Hydrogen itself is not a greenhouse gas. However, when released as a pure gas to the atmosphere it indirectly contributes to greenhouse warming by reacting with hydroxyl radicals that otherwise would react with methane to break it down. So, by reacting with hydrogen there are less hydroxyl molecules available to react with methane; a potent greenhouse gas causing about 80 times more warming than the equivalent weight of carbon dioxide.
At present, hydrogen warming potential is not a significant problem as its use is largely limited to fertilizer and chemical plants as well as oil refineries and pipelines. However, if the hydrogen economy expands as projected, the potential for hydrogen leaks into the atmosphere inevitably will increase. The farther it travels between production and end-use the greater the potential for leakage. Thus, it will be extremely important that hydrogen systems be designed from the start to keep leaks to a minimum.

Smaller stores selling local and biological produce are becoming increasingly common in Latvia. For example, the DB Daba store in Jelgava has been in business for five years, but the owners had to abandon their concept of selling Latvian products exclusively. As of now, local products make up about 60% of the offering in the store.
Renāte Klīve, manager of the DB Daba (DB Nature) store, said that the biggest problem is getting the local products to the store. There are also problems with products that spoil quickly, as it's hard to sell them all before time runs out.
The Jelgavas augļi (Fruits of Jelgava) store sells about 20% of locally-grown products, and owner Igors Sidoriščins said that "There are not enough farmers and farms in Latvia to grow as much as Latvians eat, and that's why importing the products from other countries cannot be avoided."
As healthy food is becoming more and more popular, stores like these pop up to meet the demand.
The Zaļā Zeme (Green Earth) store, which opened a few days ago, sells only local products, with about 10 to 20% being organically grown. The owners plan on obtaining a certificate for selling biologically grown products. However, once it happens, it'll be impossible to sell only local food. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
With respect to co-borrowing, there are various type of those who normally enter into an excellent co-borrowing plan.

Perhaps one of the most preferred style of co-consumers was spouses and you may lovers. Such co-borrowing was common from inside the circumstances eg to find a property otherwise funding an auto given that a few. Permits one another couples to mix its earnings and you will creditworthiness, probably expanding its likelihood of financing acceptance and getting more beneficial terms and conditions.
Co-borrowing from the bank with friends is an additional common option. For example moms and dads and you can people, siblings, or other intimate loved ones. Family relations co-credit might be of good use when purchasing property, doing a corporate, or investment a primary expense. Because of the pooling info, family unit members can raise its borrowing stamina or take benefit of best rates otherwise loan terms and conditions. Although not, it's required to establish clear telecommunications and set reasonable requirement so you're able to avoid any possible strain on family members relationships.
Family relations otherwise Roommates
Co-borrowing with relatives otherwise roommates try a faster old-fashioned but much more common solution, such as for example certainly young some one. These types of co-borrowing constantly happens when individuals want to show the brand new financial obligation from leasing a condo otherwise to acquire common property, particularly a motor vehicle. If you find yourself co-borrowing from the bank having family otherwise roommates can provide financial pros, it is vital to expose a good quantity of trust and certainly determine the fresh spots and you will duties of any co-debtor to avoid potential issues down the road.
Understanding the different varieties of co-borrowers makes it possible to select the most suitable applicant to suit your co-borrowing from the bank need. Whether or not you decide to co-use with your companion, loved one, otherwise friend/roomie, you should present open and you can honest communications, determine clear standards, and ensure all of the people in it is actually purchased satisfying its financial obligations. Co-borrowing from the bank can be an effective plan whenever Littleville loans contacted that have careful consideration and shared wisdom.
Pros and cons out-of Co-Borrowing
Before deciding so you can co-acquire, it is very important weighing the pros and you will prospective pressures that can come using this type of plan. Understanding the benefits and drawbacks off co-credit makes it possible to create a knowledgeable choice from the whether it is the best choice for your financial requires.
Benefits associated with Co-Borrowing
- Improved Borrowing Capacity: Co-borrowing makes you mix your income and you will creditworthiness with that of the co-borrower, possibly increasing your credit ability. This will be particularly useful for those who have a diminished credit score or limited income your self.
- Enhanced Loan Conditions: With a good co-borrower, you may qualify for a whole lot more beneficial mortgage conditions, including lower interest rates or a high amount borrowed. Loan providers often think about the shared economic electricity out of co-borrowers, that may end up in greatest financing also offers.
- Common Economic Responsibility: Co-borrowing allows you to express new financial responsibility out-of loan payment on co-borrower. This may promote comfort and relieve the responsibility of mortgage fees, making it significantly more in balance.
- Usage of Resources: Co-credit allows you to utilize this new info and possessions out of the new co-borrower. This really is such beneficial when purchasing a house otherwise and then make a significant investment, because will bring the means to access a bigger pool off money.
Potential Demands and Dangers
- Mutual Responsibility: One of the many risks of co-borrowing is the fact both parties is actually just as guilty of the loan. If one co-borrower non-payments to your payments otherwise gets unable to meet its economic personal debt, additional co-debtor remains legitimately liable for the rest debt. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

Ho-hum: Old Pipes and Wasted Water
How many pipe failures does it take to get your attention?
Yesterday's Van Nuys "geyser" was certainly dramatic (you can watch it online now through several news media Web sites), but did you know that the Los Angeles area experienced 44 main breaks in September and 29 in October and one of them created a sinkhole that swallowed a fire truck?
Last Thursday, I was fortunate enough to have a main break in front of my home in the Dallas area. I must say I was intrigued by the repair process:
- Bring in the trucks and backhoe;
- Make a hole big enough to put a hose in the street and vacuum out the standing water;
- Knock on doors to tell neighbors the water would be shut off from about 9:30 a.m. to 2 p.m.;
- Cut a hole in the street big enough for a man to access the pipe;
- Make the repair and fill in the hole.
Despite working in the rain, the workers were feeling pretty good about the job until one of them looked up to the street and saw a new river of muddy water bubbling up from a manhole. I heard some profanity, but, they regrouped and ran the routine again.
If too many of these occur, will we eventually consider them everyday happenings and not get excited or angry enough to do something substantial?
By the way, the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power reported that the problem on Sherman Way near Van Nuys Boulevard occurred on an 8-inch connector to a 54-inch ductile iron pipe used to convey recycled water. The 54-inch pipe does not appear to have sustained any damage.

It has been yet another Choi Kwang Do packed week and weekend.
After the week of lessons, helping teach and learning and honing it was time for a grading at the full time Dojang.
Predlet 1.0 had a great grading and was awarded her gold belt senior. I was able to move to green belt in my grading too.
That is the halfway point in the journey to black belt! The time has flown and there is still lots to learn, and there always will be.(That is is part of the fun).
It was also brilliant to be able to help all the other belts too in particular the people grading for the first time. Many of them from our school. There were enough assistant instructors to be able to hold all the equipment for many of the other gradings. A wall of blue doboks, all of us different sizes and shapes, but all smiling :)
The energy that everyone puts into the grading and the buzz when they get their belts is fantastic.
That was Saturday. Sunday was another day of Choi. Helping Black belt academy (the extra fun lessons for the under 12's that both predlets attend).
This is always brilliant.
I also got to experience some of the power of 3rd Dan Blackbelt Mr Liam Bicknell's kicks as he demonstrated to the kids how to go from shield to shield doing a spinning side kick.
we always train with respect to person holding the shield but I did give him the nod to kick as hard as he wanted. It is hard to describe just how hard the kick felt through the very thick shield, but the impact point felt it came right through the shield. A focussed ball of energy that then pushed all 16 stone of me back. Everyone learns to kick hard but very often as we are just all learning the force if sort of dispersed more across the shield. We all make people move back but this was something else :) I never thought getting kicked could be so enlightening :) | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
Our continuing saga of trying to move house edges forwards then careers backwards with increasing regularity. We are now back on the market again as the housing chain collapsed once more. This time the entry level buyer a few down in the chain pulled out.
That means the buyers of the house they were buying can't buy the house that our buyers were selling, which means they can't buy ours, we then cant buy the very specific and ideal house we found, the owners of that can buy their new place, and so on a couple more iterations!
It is a crazy system as we have all locked in (though nothing is legally binding). We have all spent money on surveys and conveyancing solicitors but we can't just go ahead with the sale.
As houses are so ridiculously expensive there is no real possibility for anyone, including us to just inject the cash into the chain.
I am sure bridging loans were once possible but several hundred thousands to put into new home whilst the equity and mortgage is being held on the old home is not very doable.
So we are in a half packed state, not a perfect show home state and are ready to show new people around the place in the hope it doesn't mean we lose where we were heading. It's the 2nd or 3rd collapse of the chain. Other times it has re-established.
I am also sure everyone involved is as disappointed as we are but these things are nobody's fault. Small blips and mistakes in the chain have consequences all the way along.
So for now the the treasury are missing out on a huge pile of Stamp duty tax payments. It is a pity that those payments can't be used to create a fund to help long chains move with bridging loans. Though property and debt are not flavour of the month with austerity high on the agenda.
Still, all these things happen for a reason. So for now my wife will have to keep commuting the 2 hours each way to London, my in-laws (whose house has sold already as we were combining households to a place with a separate annex) will have to remain camped out in the spare room. The Predlets will keep going to the same school and constantly have leaving parties with their friends.
The house is online here if you know anyone who needs a good family home, near a very good primary school (hook with warsash) close to corner shops, a pub and the sea then please point them our way :) | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

Since 2000, the Pantone Color Institute™ has been designating a Color of the Year to express in color what is taking place in the global zeitgeist. A color that will resonate around the world, the PANTONE Color of the Year is a reflection of what people are looking for, what they feel they need that color can help to answer. Not necessarily the hot fashion color of the moment, but a color crossing all areas of design which is an expression of a mood, an attitude, on the part of the consumers.
To distill the prevailing mood into a single hue, the PCI team, led by executive director Leatrice Eiseman, combs the world looking for future design and color influences, watching out for that one color seen as ascending and building in importance through all creative sectors. Influences can include the entertainment industry, upcoming films, art, emerging artists, travel destinations and socio-economic conditions. Influences may also stem from technology, lifestyles + playstyles, new textures and effects that impact color, and even upcoming sports events that capture worldwide attention.
With each unique color shade having its own special symbolism, an additional key consideration is the emotional component and the inherent meaning of the color.
PANTONE Color of the year 2015
The color for 2015? The charismatic and highly varietal shade of Marsala; a tasteful hue that embodies the satisfying richness of a fulfilling meal, while its grounding red-brown roots emanate a sophisticated, natural earthiness. Complex and full-bodied, this hearty, yet stylish tone is universally appealing; translating easily to fashion, beauty, industrial design, home furnishings and interiors.
Much like the fortified wine that gives Marsala its name, this tasteful hue embodies the satisfying richness of a fulfilling meal while its grounding red-brown roots emanate a sophisticated, natural earthiness. This hearty, yet stylish tone is universally appealing and translates easily to fashion, beauty, industrial design, home furnishings and interiors.
The Versatility of Marsala
- Equally appealing to men and women, Marsala is a stirring and flavorful shade for apparel and accessories, one that encourages color creativity and experimentation
- Flattering against many skin tones, sultry and subtle Marsala is a great go-to color for beauty, providing enormous highlight for the cheek, and a captivating pop of color for nails, shadows lips and hair.
- Dramatic and at the same time grounding, the rich and full-bodied red-brown Marsala brings color warmth into home interiors
- An earthy shade with a bit of sophistication, texture is the story in print and packaging. A matte finish highlights Marsala’s organic nature while adding a sheen conveys a completely different message of glamour and luxury.

Tension and Trauma Release Exercises (TRE®) Workshop
I am delighted to invite you to participate in my next Tension and Trauma Release TRE® Workshop coming up on Saturday 23rd November 2024 in Avalon, NSW.
Tension and Trauma Release Exercises TRE® is a wonderful method that supports the release of deeply held patterns of tension, stress and even trauma. Also, it supports deepening the connection with your body and mind, leading to a greater sense of presence, grounding and ease. The TRE® Workshops are a great opportunity for you to learn and experience the TRE® method within safe and nourishing environment.
A little bit of background...
When we feel under stress or in danger, our body releases stress hormones and increases blood flow to specific muscles of our body to prepare us to either fight or run away. An important set of muscles used in this process is the psoas (also known as hip flexor muscle), which stand guard to protect the centre of gravity of the human body.
During any traumatic or stressful experience, the psoas muscles contract in order to protect the body from harm. When the psoas muscle doesn’t return to a relaxed state after the stressful event, they remain vulnerable to continued stimulation from even minor amounts of stress, setting up a vicious cycle of endless stress and anxiety as well as psychosomatic problems.
What is TRE®?
TRE® consist of six gentle exercises that are designed to stress the psoas muscle that reply purely on the body’s natural ability to trigger tremors. This releases muscular tension, calming down the nervous system. When this natural mechanism is activated in a safe environment, the body is encouraged to return back to a state of balance. This therapeutic tremoring helps the body release deep muscular patterns of stress, tension, and even trauma.
What to expect on the day
The session will include an introduction and explanation about TRE, space for any questions you might have. I will then start the exercises followed by some time for tremoring and movement. The session will finish with a guided meditation and closing circle. Below are the details for the session:
Date: Saturday 23rd November 2024
Location: Entrance via Rear Lane, Studio 101/70 Old Barrenjoey Rd, Avalon Beach NSW 2107 (Balanced Studio)

The rapid urban expansion has greatly extended the physical boundary of users' living area and developed a large number of POIs (points of interest). POI recommendation is a task that facilitates users' urban exploration and helps them filter uninteresting POIs for decision making. While existing work of POI recommendation on location-based social networks (LBSNs) discovers the spatial, temporal, and social patterns of user check-in behavior, the use of content information has not been systematically studied. The various types of content information available on LBSNs could be related to different aspects of a user's check-in action, providing a unique opportunity for POI recommendation. In this work, we study the content information on LBSNs w.r.t. POI properties, user interests, and sentiment indications. We model the three types of information under a unified POI recommendation framework with the consideration of their relationship to check-in actions. The experimental results exhibit the significance of content information in explaining user behavior, and demonstrate its power to improve POI recommendation performance on LBSNs. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
Societal views of Deaf people typically stem from a medical or deficit perspective, which then informs educational practices. In contrast, educational settings that embrace a cultural perspective provide visual language and strategies that can benefit all students. This article will address three common myths about American Sign Language (ASL) and Deaf people, and share research-supported pedagogical practices and recommendations on how to be an ally on behalf of Deaf people.

Leaving our slippers outside, we stepped into the sacred Madhu Shrine. There is a sense of serenity here. At the centre, devotees kneeled in prayer were quietly making their way towards the altar, across the length of the Church to where the revered statue of Our Lady is placed. Some, however, chose to offer their prayers at the pew at the back. It is not for us, the visitors, to fathom their silent pleas or offers of thanks to the Heavenly Mother. Yet, for the believers of the faith, the miraculous Statue of Our Lady of Madhu, has for years, offered solace, refuge and answers.
Words Madhushala Senaratne Photographs Menaka Aravinda | Mahesh Bandara
Considered to be the most sacred Shrine for Catholics in Sri Lanka, Madhu is located in Mannar District. Leaving Colombo in the wee hours of the morning, we travelled along the Puttalam-Mannar road, which took us through the Wilpattu National Park, knowing well we could return home by night. A solemn structure, painted white and light blue stands at the turn off to the Shrine with the crowned image of Our Lady and infant Jesus at its centre. A signboard, at the feet of the edifice, reaches out to the traveller and the pilgrim in welcome and details that they are just 12 km away from the place of worship.
With a history spanning over 400 years, Madhu Shrine has been known for its miraculous healing powers. Having survived destruction, Our Lady of Madhu continues to offer hope and inspiration, not just to Catholics, but to those of all faiths.
In the 16th Century, a number of Churches were set up when Catholicism was introduced to ancient Ceylon. One such Church was situated in Mantai, a village around six miles away from Mannar and is believed to have housed the statue of Our Lady of Good Health. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

- Sledgehammer Games once planned to brew an Uncharted-style Call of Duty cinematic title. It was going to be a dark and gritty experience in third-person set in Cambodia.
- A short 15-minute demo was also created for the project, but things did not proceed further with the game. It was shelved away as the devs chose to develop Call of Duty: World War 2.
- Some work had allegedly begun on Advanced Warfare 2, and it also had a demo and prototype but was soon canned.
- The devs are currently working on Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3. It is slated to release on November 10 for PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series S, Xbox Series X, and PC.
Sledgehammer Games once explored a different genre for the Call of Duty franchise and wanted to brew more of a cinematic-esque sort of entry. The former Sledgehammer Games dev Bret Robbins recently appeared in an interview with MinnMax on YouTube. He iterated that the studio wanted to explore an Uncharted-styled COD title.
It was sort of like a third person, almost like an Uncharted meets Call of Duty idea, and we did a prototype for it and we made a demo. Um yeah, it was cool. It was fun. I think someone should go and make that game,” said Bret Robbins.
Bret defined the Uncharted-styled COD game as a dark experience in third-person set in Cambodia. Unfortunately, things did not pan out further after the internal demo. The dev team did not develop anything further than a 15-minute playable demo, and everyone quite liked it.
Yeah, that was the idea; it was going to be pretty gritty, you know, kind of a more brutal third-person war experience, but you know, we didn’t get that far with it, honestly. Like, we had the demo, but we didn’t really even go so far as to kind of map out what the whole game was going to be; it was, uh, an experiment.”
Call of Duty team soon moved on to the other titles in the series, and the prospect was shelved away to collect layers of dust. However, the former COD developer is still interested in an uncharted-styled cinematic entry in the IP.
- Nintendo’s 10-Year Deal With Microsoft May Cover More Activision Games Than Just Call Of Duty.
- Shocker: Sledgehammer Games is Developing a New Call of Duty Title.
- Legacy Call of Duty Games Dominate Xbox Store’s Best Sellers List After Server Fixes.
Previously, the Sledgehammer Games co-founder Michael Condrey shed more details on the project when he worked at the studio. Bret Robbins also talked about Advanced Warfare 2 in the interview. Some work had allegedly begun on the project but was soon canned. The sequel to the highly popular entry never surpassed the steps after the demo and prototype and ended up forgotten like the other cinematic title.
COD: War World 2 eventually became the focus of Sledgehammer Games, as the devs found it to be a better choice. All in all, the current focus of the team is on Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3. It is slated to release on November 10 for PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series S, Xbox Series X, and PC.

Keep your employees, assets, and reputation safe with these tips.
With online scams on the rise, it’s never been more critical for businesses of all sizes to take data security seriously. A record 82% of organizations reported experiencing some form of fraud in 2018, and phishing attempts increased by 65% the following year.
There are proactive steps you and your organization can take to safeguard against cybercrime, scams, and fraud. Keep reading to learn more about how to protect your business from scams and to evaluate the security measures you might always have in place.
Last year saw record numbers of cyberattacks and data breaches across all industries. Whether you have an in-house IT department or contract with a third-party vendor, there’s no time like the present to shore up your IT infrastructure. The investment is worth it: 43% of cyberattacks are aimed at small businesses and can cost businesses of all sizes an average of $200,000 per incident.
The most common types of cyberattacks are also some of the most preventable through employee education, vigilance, and implementation of best practices.
A virus (or malware) is harmful programming that spreads from computer to computer, giving cybercriminals access to your private proprietary data.
Ransomware is a type of malware that shuts down computer access until a ransom is paid.
Phishing is when criminals contact you or your employees through email, phone call, or text, pretending to be a legitimate company, customer, or even an internal employee or department. The goal is to trick the recipient into sharing personal information, such as passwords, account numbers, or Social Security numbers. The message might also entice the user to open an attachment or click a link that turns out to contain malicious code.
The best way to fight back against phishing is first learning how to recognize it, and then taking these steps, as outlined by the Federal Trade Commission:
- Protect your computer by using security software.
- Protect your mobile phone by setting software to update automatically.
- Protect your accounts by using multi-factor authentication.
- Protect your data by backing it up.
New to cybersecurity? The U.S. Small Business Administration has put together this helpful guide to staying safe from cybersecurity threats, including information on assessing your business risk, training and events, and cybersecurity best practices.
Scammers are always finding new and creative ways to trick people and companies out of their money. Local businesses and start-ups are often vulnerable because they lack established accounting processes and cybersecurity support.
The Better Business Bureau has compiled a list of common small business scams to watch for, including directory scams, overpayment scams, vanity award scams, and even stolen brand identity scams. They also assembled the following tips to help small businesses protect themselves from scams:
- Keep good records
- Be extra careful with payment procedures
- Avoid some payment methods when possible
- Double-check vendors
- Be careful what information you share
- Protect your devices
- Spread the word
We often like to think of employees and coworkers as friends or even family. But internal fraud is a risk that business owners need to be aware of and prepared to address.
Some of the most common fraud scenarios include:
- Payroll fraud — when employees manipulate the system to receive payment they haven’t earned, especially overtime. This occurs twice as often in small businesses compared with larger ones.
- Cash theft — whether through skimming (not reporting incoming cash), larceny (taking money that has been reported), or fraudulent disbursement (releasing unauthorized funds), cash theft negatively impacts the bottom line.
- False invoicing — when employees generate false suppliers and invoices or charge higher fees and pocket the difference.
So what can you do to protect against fraud? Start by educating your staff and hold regular training sessions on common fraud and security threats. Establish an anonymous tip line (phone or email) for reporting suspicious behavior. Finally, create and maintain internal controls such as regular bank statement and account reviews, separating responsibilities and duties, and automated bill payments.
Bottom line: always be on the lookout to protect your business against scams!

The Cleveland Guardians have brought up Tyler Freeman, but now what?
The Cleveland Guardians have promoted top prospect, Tyler Freeman, to the Major League club after having a heck of a 2022 season in Triple-A Columbus. Freeman made his Major League debut in the finale of the Arizona Diamondbacks game and with the recent trend of minor leaguers getting the call-up, it doesn’t seem likely that this is a short-stint for Freeman.
Assuming he doesn’t struggle too much.
In his first outing with the Guardians, he went 1-3 with a walk, so not a bad outing. He joins another top 10 prospect, Nolan Jones, on the Major League level. Both men were at one point considered the top guy in the Guardians farm system but now Daniel Espino is the top guy. Espino, however, has only four starts under his belt so far in 2022.
There could still be some more movement to the Majors, though it seems unlikely that it’d be anyone from the Top 30 in the Guardians farm system.
What are the Cleveland Guardians getting from Tyler Freeman?
Freeman can be a very good hitter. Yes, his .279 average in 2022 isn’t impressive, but he’s had a .311 average in the minors, hitting over .300 three times, and having one season where he hit .352. Granted it was over just 72 games but that’s impressive regardless.
He also isn’t a huge strikeout monster either, so he’ll put the ball in play quite a bit. He’s capable of getting a lot of doubles, having smacked 29 in just 270 at-bats in 2018, and knocking 32 of them around in 2019 in 493 at-bats.
He won’t hit for any raw power, however. He’s not a home run hitter, and most of his doubles are due to his speed, rather than bouncing them off the outfield wall. In a perfect world, he’d become the Guardians two-hitter, sitting right behind Steven Kwan, but the Guardians seem content with Amed Rosario there.
Rosario has been a topic of trade talk as of late, so it may be a situation where the Guardians are seeing what they get out of Freeman before making a decision on Rosario. Rosario only has one year of controllability left, so if the Guardians opt not to try and re-sign him, he could get dealt and Freeman would step in to take his place. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

Our BVD eradication scheme is coming very close to our target of national eradication and we are seeing the real animal health benefits on farms.
While we have not achieved national eradication, significant progress has been made. We can also learn valuable lessons for future programs and their implementation. For now BVD tissue tag testing is a key component of this program as we get closer to eradication.
Talking to vets up and down the country one thing they have really begun to reflect on, is how much more healthy cattle are. One area where significant improvements have been made, are in improving calf health. This improvement in calf health is one of the real success stories of the program.
BVD virus works by suppressing the immune system amongst other things. When we tackle disease we are always trying to raise immunity and reduce infection. Removing this virus from circulation is critical to healthy cattle farming.
Lets remind ourselves on BVD the facts
- BVD or bovine viral diarrhoea virus has an affinity for the reproductive tract of animals causing a range of diseases. It can cause severe immunosuppression in young animals. An animal’s immune system is so important in the fight against infectious bugs and pathogens.
- There are two strains of the virus but we commonly see BVDv type 1 in Ireland
- Animals who haven’t been exposed to the virus are extremely susceptible. This means while most Irish farms current risks are low it is extremely important to keep the disease out. Good biosecurity is important when we consider all infectious disease.
- The virus can spread orally or by inhalation, it will usually migrate to the ovaries and womb of female cattle. This is important because it can pass through the placenta into the young calf.
- The critical thing to remember is when this happens in the first 120 days of pregnancy the calf can become persistently infected. At this early stage the calf has no immune system developed so will it be persistently infected with the virus.
- These calves may not survive and abort or can be born persistently infected. The tissue tagging we currently do is to identify these calves early and remove them.
- Very occasionally the virus can cause deformities in the calf.
- The virus also can have devastating effects at breeding time itself, with dramatic increases in fertility issues. This can be seen with poor conception, early embryo loss and usually farmers will see very irregular repeats or cattle returning on heat.
- While persistently infected animals are a huge source of the disease, we can also get animals with transient infections. This is where healthy animals are exposed to the virus, they will show the effects like infertility or often in older cattle issues like respiratory disease.
- While the BVD virus can cause problems on its own, its effect on depressing the immune system opens the door for other viruses and bacteria. We can often see this where we have really bad outbreaks of pneumonia even in older cattle.
- Where a persistently infected calf is born they can really shed billions of viruses into the environment. These will then infect other calves in the herd (transient infections 3-4 weeks). This can be absolutely devastating where you get calf scours.
- BVD virus can also infect bulls , they will often get a temperature spike and can become infertile
- Remember good biosecurity pays long term, don’t buy in disease and always secure boundaries.
We are very close to eradication
Removing PI (persistently infected) animals has been a key part of the program through tissue testing. These animals are like virus factories and early testing and prompt removal is critical. While most of these PI animals will not make it to 2 years. Some will and can appear normal but will continually shed the virus.
Should I continue to vaccinate?
This is a question we commonly get asked about BVD. Vaccination has traditionally played an important role in the control of BVD. Vaccines are often administered in advance of breeding to protect the female animal and her future calf.
Every vaccine will have a specific protocol and must be followed. While the risk of BVD is extremely low now for most herds, our advice has been to talk to your own veterinary practitioners about your herds risk.
The challenge is now, as the vast majority of herds have no immunity or exposure and outbreak could be devastating. While we have BVD in our national herd even at very small levels, this makes anyone advising to drop a vaccine in a very difficult position.
Farmlab Diagnostics continues to develop its services to help vets and farmers have healthier livestock.
We also do special offers on larger volumes of testing, just pick up the phone to find out more. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

Considering this, how much does it cost to add on a mudroom?
Cost to add a mudroom varies greatly by region (and even by zip code). Get free estimates from local contractors in your city. The average cost of adding a mudroom is around $12,000.
In this manner, does an Office add value to a home?
With more companies giving employees the option to telecommute, a home office can really add some value to a home. If you have some extra space in your home, consider converting it into a home office.
According to HomeAdvisor, the average cost for building additions is between $80 to $200 per square foot without regard to whether it is up or out. While it is usually cheaper to build up than out, that's just the actual construction expense. Costs also vary depending on exactly what the contractor must do. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

I comprehend a pre-release backup with the guide, and this is an astounding memoir that i hope could be commonly comprehend, particularly in religiously old-fashioned groups.
Why which marriage is actually for example an issue is just like the Joshua is the writer regarding I Kissed Matchmaking Good-bye, this new courtship manifesto that has been capturing old-fashioned Evangelicalism at that time
Of numerous homeschooling moms and dads might have take off their correct sleeve having the chance to get married a beneficial daughter off to Joshua Harris, therefore everyone was definitely interested in which he previously married. From the overhearing a couple girls within an effective TeenPact conference saying disappointment he had not partnered an other homeschooler. This may most of the sound a little while weird now, but when you was in fact “there,” you know.
In any event. a lot changed within the 20 years. Joshua was elderly pastor off Sovereign Elegance Church, and you can immediately following exiting here throughout the a discipline safety-up scandal, he ultimately taken their publication, had divorced, and you may deconverted out of Christianity entirely.
I check out this publication just like the I desired to hear Shannon’s position into the all of this. Though I wasn’t a part of their unique specific denomination, I am every too familiar to your Evangelical Kako izbrisati eastmeeteast raДЌun dynamic of men talking and you may women nodding with each other gently (and therefore she covers too), thus i wasn’t amazed there is a great deal of perception bottled upwards into the Shannon that just hadn’t already been considering an excellent place to go into the world up to now.
I’m able to point out that I am not saying in identical set since the her spiritually, and i also dont go along with each one of their particular conclusions. However, I do not believe that suppress me personally regarding appreciating that it publication for what it’s, although it will not be for everyone. I really enjoyed their brief creating concept that will not dwell on the so many definitions however, packs a slap into the small chapters you to incorporate a mostly linear roadway courtesy her life knowledge. This makes it a very small realize, however, possibly I desired so you’re able to pause and you may consider one thing before moving forward. From time to time she steps straight back in the step and only shares just what she’s learned about certain specific areas from life.
She offers about first coming to the latest church while the an outsider and being swept for the society, trying become an excellent “godly woman” and partner depending on the ideology of the only male management at the her chapel. When their family members eventually departed you to church, she are left within the an excellent fog out of depression, very disconnected away from herself that she don’t know very well what to believe more.
The first occasion We ever heard out-of Shannon Harris are whenever certainly their own relationship photos starred in a popular homeschooling mag — it displayed their and you will Joshua Harris to one another in the a great presented position that have barely-truth be told there grins
I establish more empathy to own Joshua Harris — I hadn’t realized simply how much he was less than CJ Mahaney’s thumb. It probably considered regular to help you him. The level of enmeshment and you may manage revealed here should have become very difficult to get-out out of below. All through which tale is actually descriptions of should-have-been red flags to possess whenever a church society will get harmful — many of which Shannon didn’t come with foundation to test from the day because of her novice status.
Their unique malfunction regarding their own marriage adds loads of framework so you’re able to the hyped upwards pictures and you can announcements that have been all the most of united states spotted. She claims the wedding was never truly hers after all. She was not permitted to features their particular lifelong family unit members while the bridal party, and some of your own decisions were made by the some body apart from their. Its courtship is quick because the Josh was a primary contour into the love community and you will “wouldn’t manage to get wrong.” No you should a bit surpised during the deconversions or scandals whenever folks are forced to try to real time the real lifestyle one to method. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

This is my second visit back to Celeste, a very prestige hotel restaurant located inside the luxury 5 star Lanesborough Hotel. The reason I decided to return was simple, Celeste's cooking was impressive, full of flair and without a doubt in the Michelin territory. Executive chef Florian Favario has taken his experience from a 3 star kitchen in Paris combining with prime British ingredients to create some of the most exciting dishes I have encountered this year. One very important factor however is knowing the cooking difference between lunch and dinner, because even from the a la carte lunch menu, it is pretty much completely different to the dinner menu (the lunch menu items are much more casual). To fully experience what the Celeste team are truly capable of delivering, come to dinner. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

I prefer this recipe to any Panacotta as it is lighter and the Yoghurt makes it just slightly healthier!
You can serve it simply with a drizzle of honey and nuts or with any fruit.
30ml cold water
15 ml gelatine
125ml warm water
250ml whipping cream (cold)
25-50ml castor sugar (this depends on what you will be serving the mousse with, I prefer it less sweet)
5ml vanilla extract
250ml full cream yoghurt (cold)
- Pour the cold water into a heat resistant bowl, sprinkle over the gelatine & allow it to stand for about 5 minutes, add the remaining water, stir gently & microwave for about 20 second intervals until the gelatine has melted.
- Whisk the cold cream until it form soft peaks as you lift the whisk. Add the sugar & vanilla and whisk to mix well, but do not over-whisk.
- Add the gelatin to the yoghurt, mixing thoroughly and gently stir the yoghurt into the cream.
- Spoon mixture into serving dish or individual (preferably glass) dishes and place in fridge to set.
- Once set, top with fruit, nuts or honey.
- I like to remove the mousse from the fridge about 30 minutes before serving.
For a Moroccan or Indian menu top with Strawberries and Orange macerated in a rose flavoured syrup
For 8-10 servings
200g small strawberries halved or quartered
2 oranges, segmented
Zest from one orange
100ml granulated sugar
20ml Rose water (buy good quality)
Wash strawberries, hull them (after washing) and quarter the berries. Add the orange zest and segments. Sprinkle over the sugar and rose water and leave to stand for 2-3 hours.
Just before serving spoon the fruit and some of the syrup onto the surface of the mousse. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
When choosing storage tanks, you have two options: bolted tanks or welded tanks. FORGE provides bolted storage tanks that serve a variety of industries and needs.
Naturally, we’re partial to bolted storage tanks, but that doesn’t mean they offer no significant advantages over welded tanks. Here are a few advantages worth considering when choosing your tank type and provider.
Assemble Tanks Three Times Faster
We can assemble our engineered and custom-designed bolted steel tanks three times faster than the Welded tank supply. Our process is also significantly more cost-effective, and we can assemble our tanks under almost any conditions.
They require minimal equipment and minimal labor, which amounts to significant savings that we will ultimately pass on to you.
We offer this speed without sacrificing safety standards.
A combination of proper coatings and high-quality steel allows our bolted tanks to withstand corrosion and tough weather conditions and climates.
Ease of Maintenance
With regular inspections Bolted tanks are easy to maintain. Components may be unbolted, replaced, and bolted back into place with a minimum effort. Panels come in uniform sizes and are factory-coated.
The proper coatings prevent corrosion, and are economical and simple to replace worn seals or tighten aging bolts.
FORGE can engineer a bolted tank to serve almost any application, including water storage, dry bulk storage, wastewater storage, biofuel storage, and more.
Bolted steel tanks can be customized. They’re available in different sizes and may be altered to better suit the site. Depending on your needs, we can also build capacities ranging from 4,000 gallons to 8 million gallons.
Ready to FORGE ahead?
Contact us to request a quote on your bolted steel tank or to ask us additional questions. If you choose FORGE, you’ll work with a dedicated project manager and will enjoy competitive prices and lead times.
We field our own installation crews with employees who are experts in bolted tanks. We deliver our tanks on schedule and give you a quality install each time. Experience the FORGE difference. Contact us today. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
over the past 6-12 months the co-authors of this post have been involved in setting up Germany's largest COVID-19 study called National Pandemic Cohort Network (NAPKON). NAPKON is a subproject of the Network University Medicine (NUM) which was financed with 150 Million Euro in 2020 by the Federal Ministry of Education and Research in the context of the emerging COVID-19 pandemic in Germany. NAPKON recruits COVID-19 positive patients in an unusually comprehensive data and biosample visit schedule. Over 1000 individuals across Germany are involved in various ways: local study sites, central coordination or expert groups for one of over 25 medical specialities.
We have been the primary developers of the project management IT infrastructure for NAPKON. By connecting multiple open-source software projects we created what we currently call a "Research Project Suite". It currently includes
- Group management
- with synchronization across all services
- with decentralized group management options
- with hierarchiycal dependencies
- Mailing lists
- Collaborative Cloud space
- Admin Interface for User Management
- Project Management tools (Tasks, Gantt charts etc)
- Coherent Header across services
Software used includes Keycloak, Nextcloud, OnlyOffice, Sympa, OpenProject, Discourse, Wordpress and many self developed scripts. It is thus similar to proprietary services such as Google Suite or Microsoft Teams but allows much more customization to our needs.
Our Research Project Suite has now been deployed for NAPKON and, ORCHESTRA (a large EU funded COVID-19 study) and is in a test phase for 2 other projects. A release under an open-source licence is planned soon and much work of the past weeks has been invested into making the software easy to deploy for outsiders.
As we are currently in the process of implementing software to poll users as requested by the project coordination we were considering ways to embed tools for improved institutional decision making into our software. We have brainstormed some ideas what we could implement:
- Implementation of prediction tools (e.g. by leveraging work of foretold.io)
- Implementation of Models for uncertainty (e.g. by leveraging more work of getguesstimate)
- Implementation of decision guidance tools (e.g. possibly with clearerthinking.org)
- Transparency by providing lists of all past polls
- Nudging people to make great polls by facilitating steelmanning arguments / Standard use of approval voting / transparency to the community / ... (e.g. by using an adapted Loomio)
It is obvious that all the proposed points above need careful investigation and adaptation to the typical workflows of the scientific community.
We are very interested in the thoughts of the Improving-Institutional-Decision-Making Community here in the forum regarding effective strategies to embed tools for better decision making into the very software that is used by a (scientific) community. Please help us to understand
- In what ways could we nudge people to make better decisions with our platform? What is low hanging fruit, what is the holy grail?
- What are well established best practices in the IIDM space that have been implemented elsewhere already?
- Is this worth the effort or shall we simply provide a project platform that works?
- What are important pitfalls we ought to be aware of?
Thank you very much in advance. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
I have an Arduino Nano 3.0 and I can get it to function as desired on my wife's pc, but it won't work on my pc.
I have spent the past 2 days trouble shooting and nothing seems to work.
I get as far as trying to "update driver software...", and when I try to install the newly downloaded and extracted drivers (most recent on FTDI website) I get an error message
"Windows was unable to install you USB Serial Port (COM3)
Windows could not find driver software for your device"
Also interesting to note, when in my Device Manager, I don't see the offending device being called "FT232R USB UART" or anything similar, like all of the tutorials suggest I should see. In my list, the device is seen as "USB Serial Port (COM3)". I'm not sure if this matters, but perhaps it will provide someone reading with a clue as to why this isn't working.
I've followed lots of tutorials, most recently this one, which is the "in-depth" version: How to Install FTDI Drivers - SparkFun Learn
I'm at my whit's end, please help!!!! | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
Kit: Arduino Engineering Kit Rev2
Project: Drawing Robot
Section: Draw on the whiteboard
Issue: Matlab app opens as expected, moving the sliders changes the parameters (mL.speed, mR.Speed, etc) successfully, but the DC motors do not move at all. The servo motor turns as expected, except that it has no neutral position, only left and right.
I can live with the servo motor only having 2 positions, but not being able to move the DC motors even though the tutorial claims the matlab app should work is haunting me.
I've tried controlling the motors in a custom script from the section right before, and the DC motors turn fine.

Cold_Finger Posted July 8, 2018 Posted July 8, 2018 I got my Vive Pro on Friday and as soon as I got everything up and running, the first thing I notice is a green dot on my right eye from certain angles. There are some colors where it will show up and where it will not. I will try listing the ones I can remember. When viewing a White color, the pixel will appear green. When viewing a Red color, the pixel will appear black. When viewing a Bright Blue, Bright Green, Bright Yellow, or Black color, the pixel will not appear at all. I don't really know if there is a way to fix this on my end. All I have tried to do is switch the linkbox DP connection to a different DP slot on my GPU. Didn't change a thing. Also, I tried my best to get a picture of the pixel on a red surface (the most visible of all), but my phone camera keeps trying to correct the focus, and I can't get a clear picture of it. EDIT: After contacting Live Support, I've decided I'm sending it in for repairs. Wish me luck.. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

A Labor Economist Goes to Washington: Bring Your Questions for Betsey Stevenson
Regular readers of the blog will be familiar with economist Betsey Stevenson, a sometimes contributor and frequent topic of discussion. Betsey’s research focuses on a wide range of topics: happiness, marriage, divorce, and labor economics, among other things.
The Freakonomics blog will have to do without Betsey for the next year, however, as she’ll be serving as the Chief Economist of the Department of Labor (DOL). Officially, the DOL is charged with “foster[ing] and promot[ing] the welfare of the job seekers, wage earners, and retirees of the United States by improving their working conditions, advancing their opportunities for profitable employment, protecting their retirement and health care benefits, helping employers find workers, strengthening free collective bargaining, and tracking changes in employment, prices, and other national economic measurements.” In plain English, Betsey will be helping out with everything from unemployment insurance to job creation, job training and readiness, the minimum wage and retirement security. It’s hard to think of a more interesting time to be working on these issues, and it’s hard to imagine the DOL won’t benefit from Betsey’s expertise.
Betsey has agreed to answer your questions about her new position so fire away in the comments section below. As always, we’ll post her answers shortly. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

President Yoweri Museveni truth about his corrupt government
Museveni can not muzzle any Ugandan who tells the truth about his corrupt government. What Bobi Wine said is the truth. I think President Museveni should resign because he still does not understand what Presidents do for their countries. Why can’t he learn something from Magufuli. Over 30 years and education system led by his wife is not only a mess but a massive failure. The Foreign Ministry led by his in law Kutesa is a system of contempt at an international level. The Ministry could have failed completely if it was not for the hard working Ugandans in some Embassies around the world. The Foreign Ministry is led by a crook.
Now President Museveni wants BOU inquiries done in secrecy. This is very suspect of the man who said that he tried to stop the collapse of Banks but the officials did not listen to his advice. If he has nothing against him as this matter is concerned, why is he worried for the proceedings to be public??
President Museveni can not stop Ugandans to question his behaviour because he holds the keys of Ugandans in his hands. If he misuses the keys, then Ugandans have the right to ask him for accountability. If he has nothing to hide, then even the crook who collapsed Banks must be in prison not guarded by the army and special forces using Ugandans money.
Ugandans can not be taken for a ride any more Mr President. Swallow your pride and accept that you have handled our country wrongly on many issues for so many years.
The question of threatening young politicians and taking away their freedoms when your own children and grand children move freely around the country is unacceptable. Uganda is their country too. Why stop other peoples children from progressing while yours are free?
The other day, you told Ugandans to be patient with you. Mr President, that can be said to your children and relatives too. How many could go to Mbale referral Hospital for treatment? You would fly your children to Germany for treatment. Can other Ugandans do the same? Can you send your children to Nabumali High School or Majansi, Kiira college in their present state? If you can’t do that, why do you think other Ugandans are that inferior? Or Is it because of the simple fact that they are not presidents children?
And after 30 years, what patience do you really want from Ugandans?? Is there anything new you will do that you have failed to do in the past 30 years??
Holding on power when you have nothing new to add to the country is in itself not fair for Ugandans. And this is not talking too much or being big mouthed. It is expressing PEOPLE POWER that is found in Ugandans Constitution article one. Instead of tear gassing and beating Ugandans up, give them the same freedom you enjoy. Oh do you think they are not Ugandan enough to be free in their own country??
NO WEAPON BOUGHT BY UGANDANS MONEY SHOULD BE USED AGAINST UNARMED INNOCENT CIVILIANS FOR DENYING THEM THEIR FREEDOM.

Prepared to fight for her home, Sybilla is fearless—even
when King Edward's army descends upon Fallstowe Castle. Yet
in Julian she discovers a more formidable foe than she
imagined. For he stirs an overwhelming desire in her. And
when she is forced to confront the secrets of her family's
past, Sybilla must rely on Julian to save her from the
King's wrath. But as their feelings for one another deepen,
giving in to temptation will put both their lives in
danger. . . | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

The "poor man's lobster tail", Monkfish is an abundant and underrated piece of seafood.
The "poor man's lobster tail", Monkfish is an abundant and underrated piece of seafood. Its dense, boneless, and mild tasting tail meat will be a pleasant surprise if you have not tried this fish before. Our favorite recipe for Monkfish is simple: a lemon, butter, thyme, and garlic marinade that is seared to lock in the flavor and finished in the oven producing a tender meal that will rival your favorite lobster and scallop dishes.
Red's Best uses advanced freezer technology to super-freeze their locally caught fish and shellfish to temperatures below -61 degrees Fahrenheit for a minimum of 24 hours. They perform this process as it is necessary to reduce the risk of consuming raw, wild seafood. Red's Best commercial super freezer accelerates the freezing process, and preserves the texture of the proteins by reducing the expansion of water molecules within the flesh of the seafood.

In today’s world, businesses collect a lot of important information. This information includes documents, records, and data that help them operate every day. However, disasters can happen at any time. Whether it’s a fire, flood, or even a cyberattack, these events can threaten the safety of valuable information. This is where an archive storage company plays a vital role in disaster recovery. This article will explain how these companies help protect and recover important documents when disaster strikes. If you are contacting an archive storage company in Los Angeles, here is what you need to know.
What is Archive Storage?
archive storage company Los Angeles refers to a safe place where businesses can keep their important documents and records for a long time. This can include physical documents like paper files or digital files stored on servers. Archive storage companies specialize in organizing, protecting, and storing these documents so that they can be easily accessed when needed.
Protection Against Disasters
One of the main roles of an archive storage company is to protect documents from disasters. When businesses store their important files on-site, they risk losing everything if something goes wrong. For example, if a fire breaks out in the office, all the important records could be destroyed. Archive storage companies keep these documents in secure facilities that are designed to withstand disasters. They often have fireproof safes, climate control systems, and other security measures in place to keep the documents safe.
Easy Retrieval of Information
During a disaster, it is important for businesses to access their information quickly. Archive storage companies have systems in place that make it easy to retrieve stored documents. When a disaster occurs, companies can contact the archive storage provider and request specific files. The archive storage team will then quickly find and send the documents to the business. This helps companies get back to work as soon as possible after a disaster.
Disaster Recovery Plans
An archive storage company can also help businesses create a disaster recovery plan. This plan outlines what steps to take in case of an emergency. The archive storage company can assist by helping businesses identify which documents are most important to keep and how to store them securely. Having a clear plan can make a big difference in how quickly a business can recover from a disaster.
Compliance with Legal Requirements
Many businesses must follow legal rules about how long they need to keep certain documents. Archive storage companies can help ensure that businesses meet these legal requirements. By storing documents securely, businesses can avoid penalties or legal problems that can arise from losing important records. Archive storage companies can also help track retention schedules, so businesses know when it is time to dispose of old documents safely.
In conclusion, an archive storage company in Los Angeles or anywhere plays a crucial role in disaster recovery for businesses. They protect important documents from disasters, provide easy retrieval of information, help create disaster recovery plans, and ensure compliance with legal requirements. By using an archive storage service, businesses can feel more secure knowing that their valuable information is safe. When disaster strikes, having a reliable archive storage company can make all the difference in how quickly a business can recover and continue its operations.

We get this one a lot at Ask Gardenerd, so we thought it would be good to answer it in print:
“Help! I just opened my compost to little tan maggots?! I have never seen them before!!! Our compost is every kind of food we throw out. So, I assume it is unbalanced? Also, I have noticed that the food has not been going down lately. Our compost is covered too! Should we throw hat inside or is grass ok? –Sarah”
Thanks for writing in, Sarah. Let’s start with the maggots. Those “tan maggots” are probably black soldier fly larvae, especially if they are about 3/4 to 1 inch long, and are segmented, or are embossed with stripes across the body. Those guys are super-digesters. They help break down your compost a lot faster than other bugs. They are otherwise harmless.
We wrote an article about this a couple years ago that you might find helpful. You’ll find solutions there for balancing your pile. If you have chickens, they love black soldier fly larvae. You can scoop some out and feed them to your hens. They’ll love you for it.
Food not “going down lately” – I think you mean that the contents of your compost bin is not reducing. If that’s true, the bin is most likely drying out. When a pile dries out, microbes go dormant. Microbes are responsible for breaking down your organic material into finished compost.
Try this: turn your pile from one place to another. You can shimmy the compost bin off the pile (takes 2 people), set it down next to the pile, then shovel the contents back into the bin. That’s how much you need to agitate the contents. While you’re turning the pile, hose down each layer you add to the bin so that it’s wet on all sides. Moisture is key to decomposition.
If your compost pile smells like garbage, then it’s too wet. Add carbon (browns: leaves, torn up cardboard, wood chips, etc.) and mix it all together. It will help fuel the microbes in the pile to wake up and start eating again.
Grass clippings – yes, you can add grass clippings, but mix them with some carbon first, then add them to your pile. Straight grass clippings will turn slimy, and will become anaerobic very quickly. Mixing them with browns will break up the layer and provide a balance of high nitrogen (the grass) and carbon (leaves, wood chips etc) for microbes to feast upon. IF your grass clipping are treated with herbicides, chemical fertilizers or insecticides DO NOT ADD THEM. There are weed killers in existence that do not break down in the composting cycle, and they are listed as a neurotoxin. Bayer makes one of them, though we don’t know the product name off hand.
Now about that hat… We’re not sure what you mean by throwing a “hat inside” but if it’s made from biodegradable materials, sure, you can throw that hat in your compost bin. We recently threw an old straw hat into our compost pile. It’s breaking down and in about 6 months, it will be gone.
We hope this helps! Thanks for writing in.
