Gov. Andrew Cuomo Announces That He Plans To Run Again In 2022
Per WIVB, the announcement came on an interview on WAMC radio that Governor Andrew Cuomo plans to run for a fourth term in New York State.
He was elected governor in 2010 and took office in January of 2011. Today he announced that he is planning to make another run at 4 more years as the Governor of New York.
If he should win, it would make him only the second NY governor to be elected for 4 consecutive 4-year terms. The first to do that was Republican Nelson Rockefeller.
He says he intends to run again because he feels that he is making a difference in New York State and would like to continue making a difference.
"I think I'm doing good things...I believe I know how to do this, I would like to do it for as long as the people of the state of New York believe I am a positive." - Governor Andrew Cuomo on WAMC
New York has no gubernatorial term limits. So as long as he keeps getting elected, he will remain the governor. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

Interview with Hailey Helset, Agency Depot Engagement Manager at Edmonton’s Food Bank
Tell us about yourself and your organization!
My name is Hailey Helset and I am the Agency Depot Engagement Manager with Edmonton’s Food Bank. I started as a summer student in 2019 working to build hampers for people in need before I finished my degree in criminology. When I graduated in April 2020, I worked the following summer in the same position before transitioning into my current role at Edmonton’s Food Bank. I now have the pleasure of working with 300+ organizations including agencies, soup kitchens, schools, shelters, and food depots across the City of Edmonton.Edmonton’s Food Bank provides food to more than 30,000 people through our hamper programs every month. Of those receiving food through these programs, approximately 40% are children under the age of 18. Edmonton’s Food Bank is, primarily, a central food warehouse and distribution centre for local social service agencies, shelters, soup kitchens, and schools. We raise food and collect food donations from the food industry and other donors. In 2022, Edmonton’s Food Bank collected, sorted, and redistributed 5.9 million kilograms of food.
What kinds of programs and support does Edmonton’s Food Bank offer, and how do you see the impact of these programs? What is the ripple effect of creating food security?
Edmonton’s Food Bank has many programs to reduce food insecurity. These include:
- Hamper programs that provide food hampers for individuals and families
- Food for partner programs that provide about 400,000 meals and snacks every month
- Supporting Nutrition for all Classes and Kids (S.N.A.C.K) for schools and child-focused agencies
- The Beyond Food Program that assists people with job readiness and personal supports such as assistance with resume writing and job searches, safety tickets, referrals, and much, much more
These food programs help directly with food insecurity and relieve one source of concern. By supporting food needs, we help people free up their monetary resources for rent, utilities, or other important expenses. We also often hear it helps to know there are people in the community supporting them through their difficulties. Our Beyond Food Program decreases food insecurity by helping people to increase their employability and earning potential or by maximizing the supports they receive. In 2022 the Beyond Food Program assisted over 800 clients. It is only with the support of the community that we are able to make these positive impacts for the people we serve.
Like YESS, Edmonton’s Food Bank has a long legacy in Edmonton. How do you continue to evolve to meet the needs of the community?
Edmonton’s Food Bank was Canada’s first food bank! We have been operating for 42 years and continuously evolving to help meet the needs of our community. Our annual client surveys show what is most needed. For example, our Beyond Food Program was created after our 2015 survey. This summer we opened a new building that will feature a pantry to help provide other access for our clients. We provide mobile hamper depots to meet clients in their own neighbourhoods where barriers exist.
Edmonton’s Food Bank does “food” really well, and to help move toward lasting change we continue to collaborate with other agencies assisting people in need to provide the best network of resources possible to people.
What is one thing you wish the community knew about people who access Edmonton’s Food Bank?
That it could be anyone! All it takes for many people is one unexpected large expense or loss of a job and they can quickly need our assistance. We have people who were donors become clients and people who were clients become donors. We are here when you need us. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
When the new Pulsar 220F began to arrive at showrooms, Bajaj quietly introduced the motorcycle. A recognizable set of improvements, first seen in Pulsar models such as the N150, N160, NS200, and the recently released N250, are now available for the revised Bajaj Pulsar 220F. Bajaj hasn’t yet made an official announcement on the upgraded Pulsar 220F’s release, though.
Although the pricing has not yet been disclosed, it is expected to cost between Rs 1.40 and Rs 1.45 lakh (ex-showroom). Let’s examine every modification Bajaj made to the Pulsar 220F in 2024.
What’s new with the 2024 Bajaj Pulsar 220F?
The entirely digital instrument console, which includes features like turn-by-turn navigation, Bluetooth connectivity through the Bajaj Ride Connect app, and a gear position indicator, is the largest improvement to the 2024 Pulsar 220F. The Pulsar 220F receives a new switchgear on the left side to navigate through the many menus on the screens in addition to the redesigned instrument panel.
A USB charging port has also been added, and it is situated directly on the side of the instrument cluster. It has new body decals with the “220” marking on the bikini fairing, but the design is still there.
Bajaj Pulsar 220F (2024): What isn’t novel?
As previously stated, the semi-faired body keeps the same design. The Pulsar 220F is equipped with a single halogen projector headlamp, with LED position lamps positioned on either side. Three dual-tone colour options are available for it: Black & Grey, Black & Blue, and Black & Red. Additionally, Bajaj has kept the split-style seats and the side panels’ faux carbon fibre finish.
Additionally, the engine configuration is unchanged. It has a 220cc air/oil-cooled motor that generates a maximum torque of 18.5 Nm and 20.4 horsepower. A 5-speed gearbox is matched with this engine. Although it doesn’t have a direct competitor in the Indian market, the Pulsar 220F is a viable substitute for devices like the TVS Ronin and Hero Karizma XMR. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
CAVENDISH, P.E.I. — A chef has turned his 15 years of experience working in luxurious restaurants worldwide into his own establishment on P.E.I.’s north shore.
And, in doing so, he has fulfilled a plan he has had since arriving in Canada a few years ago.
Nishanth Dominic previously worked as a cook and sous chef at many high-end hotels and resorts in locations such as the Maldives and Mauritius, where he worked with many talented chefs, including some Michelin-star chefs, and learned about world cuisine.
In May, he opened Island Chef at the Pier in Cavendish, which is a multi-cuisine restaurant that goes beyond seafood, offering a diverse range of flavours such as Italian, Indian and Arabic, with recipes crafted by Dominic himself.
“I fuse my food with different experiences that I have come across, so it would be something unique,” Dominic told SaltWire in an interview July 12.
The dining experience extends beyond the food, Dominic said. The restaurant, located inside the Inn at the Pier, features an outdoor seating area overlooking New London Bay.
“It's such a beautiful location. It's not just only the meal, they should have a good time to enjoy the location as well.”
Falling in love with Island life
Dominic first arrived in P.E.I. in 2019 to join his wife who had moved to Canada a few years earlier for her studies.
The idea of opening his own restaurant didn't occur to him until he settled on the Island and saw the thriving tourism industry. Recognizing the potential and the opportunity to utilize his culinary skills and years of experience, he realized that opening a restaurant in P.E.I. was a viable and exciting prospect, Dominic said.
“I had a feeling like, OK, that could be one of the best, best thing I can do on the Island.”
But most importantly, he and his wife enjoy their lives in P.E.I., he said. They feel their children could get quality education opportunities here and grow up in a safe environment.
“We have very good education for our kids. The kids are very safe in P.E.I. So, I thought like, yeah, it should be the best place.”
Early this year, Dominic began working on setting up his restaurant. However, as a newcomer to the province, he faced challenges in navigating the system to get his business up and running.
And so, he reached out to P.E.I. Connectors, which is a program of the Greater Charlottetown Area Chamber of Commerce that helps newcomer entrepreneurs succeed in business in the province.
Unique twist on classic fare
Karen Milligan, the program officer for Kings County for P.E.I. Connectors, began working with Dominic in February, helping connect him with resources in terms of things like funding opportunities and employment needs.
“I know he's worked extremely hard to get this running,” Milligan said. “I was able to enjoy a beautiful lunch there a couple of weeks ago. The food was delicious. And an extensive menu that covers all sorts of palates and brings also some international dishes to the Cavendish area.”
Dominic said it is indeed the extensive menu at this restaurant that he’s very proud of, with some of the best sellers including lobster spring rolls and classic popular dishes like beef and chicken burgers.
But to add a special touch, he infuses his own twist into the burgers, using his own Arabic-style spice mix and marinating the chicken overnight, resulting in juicy, tender and flavour-packed burgers.
“That makes a difference in the taste, and then of course the quality of the products that I use. I try my level best to use the local products … the best quality products,” the chef said.
Currently, the restaurant operates from noon to 9 p.m., except on Tuesdays when it is closed. Into the fall, Dominic plans to open four days a week until December. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

Robust act to comply with
Taylor had impressed in main Exeter to promotion from League Two in 2021-22, earlier than he was recruited by Rotherham.
However he had a troublesome act to comply with in taking up from Warne in October final yr, despite the fact that the Millers had been eleventh within the desk on the time.
His Rotherham facet ultimately secured their Championship standing with a house win over Middlesbrough within the penultimate recreation of the season as they completed nineteenth, six factors above the underside three. It additionally broke their yo-yo behavior of the earlier six seasons, by which that they had both been promoted or relegated between the second and third tiers.
There have been different notable scalps, together with a shock 1-0 win over neighbours Sheffield United at Bramall Lane.
Nonetheless, that success on 8 November final yr was their final on the highway, and their away type has been an enormous drawback this season.
The Millers have been aggressive at house, as they confirmed in drawing 2-2 with Ipswich final Tuesday, however have just one level on the highway, culminating in that heavy defeat at Vicarage Highway.
Taylor stated after what proved to be his ultimate recreation in cost that his fear was that “it is a group of gamers who aren’t believing”.
‘Enormous problem for subsequent boss’
Evaluation – Andy Giddings, BBC Radio Sheffield
The duty at Rotherham United is all the time to attain or keep Championship standing.
When hope of that fades, you are in trouble as Matt Taylor came upon this morning.
The away type – by no means good at Rotherham within the second tier – appears unusually worse and now reduce adrift of fourth backside, change is each harsh and inevitable.
It’s going to be fascinating to see who chairman Tony Stewart goes for subsequent. An up-and-coming boss or an skilled head. Both means the scale of the problem forward is large. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
Zweig Group reports strong financial outlook for the AEC industry
May 15, 2019
Recent data indicates strong financial performance industry-wide
Zweig Group’s annual Financial Performance Survey of AEC Firms, released on April 4, 2019, identified a strong positive trend in multiple key financial indicators, including profit, revenue, staff growth, and backlog.
The survey gathered data on financial metrics and methodologies from AEC industry firms of varying sizes, types, and markets across the United States.
With many leaders in the industry reporting difficulties in recruiting, average staff growth was 2.5% industry wide. Firms on the West Coast and in the Mountain region reported averages of more than 5.5% and fast growth firms reported an average of 10.3%.
Staff turnover (voluntary and involuntary) was an average of 13.6% industry wide, with higher numbers reported in architecture firms, firms of all types in the Mountain and South Central regions, firms with stable or declining growth, and no surprise, firms experiencing low profit or losses.
Median pre-tax, pre-bonus profit on net service revenue was almost 14% this year, well above pre-recession levels, and an increase from 12.7% last year. The profit metrics have remained on a generally overall upward trajectory since 2013.
Net service revenue per full-time employee also continues to rally. AEC industry firms are now generating a median of almost $150,000 per full-time employee – an all-time high. Profit generated per employee was just over $19,000, a staggering increase from 2015’s $7,146.
The contribution rate is the percentage of net service revenue remaining after all project costs (direct labor and other direct costs) have been covered. This number also hit a record high of 67.7%, indicating that industry firms are able to charge appropriately for their projects.
One of the strongest indicators of financial performance is revenue factor, which uses a combination of two financial statistics — chargeability and multiplier — to measure a firms’ ability to generate revenue. It takes into account not only how much time the firm bills to jobs (chargeability), but also what it realizes in revenue compared to what it costs in terms of direct raw labor (net multiplier). This hit a three year high of 1.86.
AEC industry firms are collecting money fairly quickly –a median of 70 days (the second lowest number in the past decade) speaking to the overall quality of accounts receivable. Work backlog also hit a high of almost eight months, indicating another strong year ahead.

Sing With The Angels
Praise the Lord from heaven, you that live in the heights above. Praise the Lord, all you angels and heavenly armies of the Lord. Psalm 148: 1, 2
If you pray truly, you will feel within yourself a great assurance, and the angels will be your companions. Know this, that as we pray, the holy angels encourage us and stand at our sides, full of joy, and at the same time interceding on our behalf.
Evagrius of Pontus
He created good angels and archangels,
the orders of Principalities and Thrones, of Powers and Virtues
so that the goodness and majesty of the Trinity
might not be unproductive in all works of bounty
but might have heavenly beings in which he might
greatly show forth his favours by a word of power.
From the summit of the kingdom of heaven, where angels stand,
from his radiant brightness, from the loneliness of his own form
through being proud Lucifer had fallen, whom he had formed
and the apostate angels also, by the same sad fall
of the author of vainglory and obstinate envy,
the rest continuing in their dominions.
At once, when the stars were made, lights of the firmament
the angels praised for his wonderful creating
the Lord of this immense mass, the Craftsman of the Heavens,
with a praiseworthy proclamation, fitting and unchanging
in an excellent symphony they gave thanks to the Lord
not by any endowment of nature, but out of love and choice.
Altus Prosator Attributed to Columba
May the seven angels of the Holy Spirit
And the two guardian angels
Shield us this and every night
Till light and dawn shall come. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

Casino – a gambling establishment that offers customers a variety of games that involve skill and chance. Casinos also offer food, drink and entertainment for their customers. Casinos are often located in the entertainment districts of cities and towns. Some casinos specialize in specific types of games. Some of them even have a museum dedicated to the history of gambling.
There are many different casino games, and each one has its own rules. Some are more complicated than others, and some require a certain level of skill to play well. However, the basics of a casino game are the same no matter what type you choose. You should know the odds of each game before you play it. This way, you can maximize your chances of winning by avoiding the games that have the worst odds.
The first thing to do before you gamble at a casino is to set a budget. This will help you keep track of how much you are spending and prevent you from spending more than you can afford to lose. You should also make sure to stick to this budget, no matter how tempting it is to stay longer and try your hand at the flashy slot machines or wheel of fortune.
Another way to increase your chances of winning at a casino is to look for a loyalty program. These programs usually include free hotel rooms, meals, and other perks for loyal players. These perks are great incentives for people to visit the casino, and can even lure them back again and again.
If you want to win more at a casino, you should study the odds of each game before playing it. There are many different types of casino games, and each one has its own odds. The house edge, which is the house’s mathematical advantage over the player, is one of the most important things to remember. The higher the house edge, the more likely you are to lose money.
Gambling in one form or another has been around for thousands of years. It was used by ancient Mesopotamia, the Greeks, and Romans, as well as Napoleon’s France and Elizabethan England. However, it was only in the 1900s that the Hippodrome Casino in London opened its doors to the public.
The casino industry is competitive, and many casinos struggle to attract and retain guests. Despite the fact that they are a fun and exciting place to be, it is crucial for them to differentiate themselves from other establishments that have similar offerings. The best way to achieve this is to focus on the experiences that are unique to your casino. For example, you should promote the food and entertainment that are offered in your casino rather than just offering free play and promotions. In addition, you should invest in digital marketing strategies that can boost your brand awareness and increase customer traffic. This includes online content that highlights your casino’s amenities, location, and unique offerings. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

Microsoft has, up until recently, had a very simple movie editing software available for you to use: MovieMaker. It has sadly been discontinued. So off I went looking. Here is a great alternative, free, easy and packed with even more functionality.
VideoPad. It’s a bit more complex (but not much) and has a lot more functionality. I was able to ramp up and rip out some home movies with only about an extra half our of learning time. 4 stars so far.

The Scepter Military Fuel Canister (MFC) was developed by Scepter to meet design and performance requirements set by the U.S. Army and Canadian Forces for leak-proof, rugged, safe, dependable and cost-effective plastic jerry canisters. Scepter has produced and delivered over one million MFCs.
Vehicle and other OEM defense contractors can design equipment with carrying fixtures and brackets that are uniformly designed because of the standardized dimensions of the fuel canisters (and the Scepter water canisters).
Scepter Plastic Military Fuel Can (MFC) Compared to Steel Fuel Cans
There are several major differences in the construction and performance of steel fuel cans compared to plastic. Here is a quick comparison of the characteristics of steel and plastic cans:
* Steel cans are heavy.
Steel = 4.3kg empty, plastic = 2.3kg empty.
* Steel cans dent.
If the can falls, is thrown, or is struck its structural integrity will be compromised. Plastic cans will not.
* Overtime, steel cans will rust.
Water vapor will develop in the can and eventually corrode the can from the inside, contaminating and compromising the fuel supply. This rust can be transferred into the fuel tank of a vehicle, clogging the fuel lines and/or engine. If the can is dented, it is more likely to rust faster and at the point of the dent.
* An older steel canister can split along the welds.
Plastic cans do not have any welds as they are moulded in one continuous moulding process.
* In warm climates pressure builds in all fuel cans.
A plastic can will swell, indicating that pressure has built. Such swelling is noticeable and can be released by opening the cap. A steel can will not swell if pressure is building. Mitigation is difficult if unknown. If struck by a tracer bullet, IED fragment, or similar there will be a spark, flames, and explosion. Scepter’s plastic can will burn by adding fuel/energy to the fire, but it will not result in a catastrophic explosion. If the steel fuel can explodes, as a result there will be a significant dispersal of shrapnel. Plastic will not provide shrapnel or such catastrophic outcomes.
* Scepter’s MFCs can be equipped with a coloured strap, which indicates the contents of the can – diesel, gasoline, kerosene, waste, or two-stroke fuel (gas/oil mix). This avoids mixing of fuels mistakenly.
Also good to know:
- Accepts pour spouts (see MFC Accessories).
- Fits standard pattern vehicle brackets for liquid storage containers.
- Air-vent tube in neck keeps pouring smooth.
- Inside threads accept adapters for stoves and heaters.
- Air chamber at the top; the container will float.

For those who seek Joy, Happiness, Bliss, Compassion & Love in their lives, continue reading.
Albert Einstein once said: "You cannot solve a problem with the same level of consciousness that created it."
Many seekers tried for ages to alter their consciousness or simply try to change their lifes. With good results, if we understand the words of Buddha, JC & others well...
If you start this journey it will be your choice to do so. While reading this you probably realize that you've made that choice already.
Even better if your search & resque mission for yourself has already begun a while ago, most likely it's even expanded to help other people, animals & plants.
At some point in your life you realize that the outside world doesn't provide you with the happy feelings, not even from people you love. Can't blame them...
There's a gap. To fill that gap you can argue, beg, shout & even do worse things to the world.
That probably didn't work too well all the time, did it?
The Journey begins
You can say a Prayer now and then and you've probably already made a wish or two sometimes in the past, for changes in your life.
These results from the prayer/wishingswitch -you turn on now & then- can be related to 'the secret'.
The real secret is that there is no switch to turn it 'on'. Well, I don't even know how to turn it off...
Your wishfull thinking is already constantly working for you, your whole life. It's already happening in your life & mind by your thoughts & intentions.
The time between you're thinking something & experiencing that in your life is to be closely observed by you. It's just a timedelay.
Slowly you take more care of what you think & wish for. Adjusting your intentions & thoughts slightly probably now & then. As your world expands...
Confusing can be the realisation that you feel separated from family, friends or nature & life at all. At some point you start to communicate with them in another way.
Sure there are moments of despair, loneliness & loss of control over your life. That's part of the game. Accept it in the process of who you are going to become.
Your life experiences are like day & night, yin & yang and ups & downs but eventually you're graduating slowly. That graduatingprocess is a cyclic process what you're experiencing all your life already.
Thoughts & emotions are now in your toolkit ready for use when you need them. Being the Master of it. Pushing the buttons as you wish. You simply choose what to think of or what emotion you wish to experience. Turn it on/off as you wish.
Suddenly you realize that it was YOU -the Master with compassion- you were waiting for.
Then you realize more & more that with great power comes greater responsability & you're feeling better and more relaxed in daily life -probably living then in abundance.
As you receive more of the things you need in your life you can feel the need to give some of it away to those creatures who need it and show people how life can be.
That's where the hapinessfeeling inside of you comes from. Then you feel blessed that you're capable of doing this. Other living beings nééd you.
And you need them.
Remembering walking in nature feeling one with it all and in total peace?
Now try falling from an airplane's open door with nothing more than a backpack on. I did that 12 times and died almost twice from a crash & a drowning.
The feeling of flying is unbelievable and it doesn't end there. The world of your reality turns upside down and flips from left to right all the time.
It's overwhelming to feel ALL different emotions at once, thinking of everyting at the same time & realize it's all in your hands.
It can be scary sometimes to walk and feel like flying at the same time.
But it's a joyfull feeling.
Where do we go?
When a significant amount of people on Earth start using their 'toolkit', there's no other possibility than that we turn this planet into one giant small town where we all take good care of eachother.
If Heaven has always been a place far away and something for your near future maybe...
Now when do you decide then that you're already in it? Next year? Never? Someday? Tomorrrow?
Your journey has begun.
It's already happening.

* Elisabeta Bonef – born in 1977. She attended the University of Orthodox Theology from Bucharest, Romania, the Byzantine Painting and she has certificate from the Painting Comission of the Romanian Patriarchate. She has 17 years experience in painting portable icons. She also has experience in wall painting (fresco) and restauration.
ICON TECHNIQUE byzantine athonite tradition
* We prepare and paint the icons following the traditional byzantine technique, as it appears in Erminies. It is necessary to have a well dried lime wood on which we stick canvas with glue. After that we prepare a solution which contains bone glue, water and chalk powder; this must be laid down with a brush in 6 – 11 layers. After the complete drying, the surface for painting is polished with fine emery paper. Then the drawing must be done and then the appliance of the gold leaf. We use tempera pigments and egg yolk emulsion. The first layer, proplasmos, is made of the darkest colors of the icons, shadows. The other layers of colors go from dark to the light colors; finally, the drawing- which is the darkest color, and the final lights- which are the lightest colors. After a while, when the colors are very well dried, follows the final varnish, a layer of a solution which protects the icon against dust and water.
The wood must be carefully chosen, not gnarled, not chopped, usually lime wood, well dried. On the back side it has 2 wood poles for not curving. The canvas is sticked with rabbit glue, and then 7-11 layers of sollution: rabbit glue, water and chalk powder.
After the wood is well dried and very carefully polished, the model of the Saint who is going to be painted can be drawn. The painting in egg tempera – according to the byzantine tradition from the darkest to the lightest colors.
* In our studio we gild icons in traditional technique with water bolos and we have a 10 years experience for this technique. For the gold leaf is necessary to put some layers of bolos. After the bolos is dried enough, follows the gilding ( the sticking of the gold leaf) with a solution containing alcohol, water and glue. The gold leaf must be carefully handled; the next step is burnishing with a special agate stone. This kind of gilding requires time and experience. The gilding is ready: the gold leaf is like a jewel. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

Agility: the Key to Flourishing in a post-COVID Landscape
Jan 11, 2021
Allan Saffy, Managing Executive,
Decision Inc. South Africa
2020 will be remembered for a long time to come. Here in South Africa, the global pandemic has highlighted just how fragile our business ecosystem is. And for our economy to recover, it’s important that every company – regardless of sector – re-establishes stability and profitability.
What is clear is that recovery and stability won’t all occur at the same pace. Turbulent times have always provided some businesses with the opportunity to make great strides over the competition. 2020 has been no different. Those companies that have been delivering meaningful business outputs, have placed themselves in position to thrive next year – regardless of what happens with the pandemic; second-wave or not.
The Importance of Agility
How have they done this? The answer is agility. In today’s fast-paced world, business agility is a key differentiator. Being agile enables organisations to respond to unpredictable market conditions quickly and confidently.
What about your business? Do you feel it is an agile one? How do you measure this?
One part of the answer is to look at speed in which your business can make decisions. How fast can you access the key metrics needed to make a strategic change? In a post-Covid world, data really is the new oil. Having that data buried deep somewhere in your organisation isn’t helpful. It needs to be wisely extracted and readably available at your fingertips.
In other words, you need to have real-time insights into the decision-making levers within your business. Accessing and understanding data while extracting meaningful insights has become a critical enabler to being agile.
The only way to achieve is to accelerate your digital transformation. If the last few years have taught us anything, it’s digital transformation is no longer a question of ‘if’ but of ‘when’. The quicker you carry out your digital transformation, the more agile you can become.
How do we know?
Those organisations that have fully embraced digital transformation, are able to predict with better accuracy the future impact of the operational decisions they make. They are able to operate with more agility and are better equipped to respond to what is likely to happen next.
How can we be so sure?
Here at Decision Inc. (SA), this approach has enabled us to have a continuous strategic planning horizon at BOTH the short term (three to twelve months) AND long-term (five-year) level. So, while our long-term objectives remain intact, the short-term is focused on how best to get there in a changing environment. It has allowed us to adjust to what is happening around us and retain a mindset to adapt as rapidly as possible.
Digital enablement through data analysis has become the glue tying all the scenario-modelling, planning, and strategic interventions together. Through this we are able to gain value from our data and deliver solutions reflective of the evolving business landscape.
How should you respond?
Your business can do this too. You need to embrace this new approach so that you can easily adapt to a more inventive business environment. In short, it’s not about how big your business is that matters. It’s all about how agile you are. And regardless of size, it’s agile companies that will flourish in a post-Covid landscape.

One-week long leagues are also available.

How to Reduce Expenses Please go to this website So you can learn more about reducing costs at your small business.
Let me tell you a story about a parking lot. My fiancé and I went away for the holiday weekend with three other couples. On the afternoon of the 4th, one of the other couples went into town to pick up some supplies, and learned from a local that there was going to be a big fireworks show that night. The local told them that most people here for the weekend would gather in the park, but they’d charge you $8 to park there, so the locals usually park for free at the golf course across the street and watch the fireworks from there.
“What great inside information!” I thought. “We can watch the fireworks for free!” I was apparently alone in my thinking. “The people here are really cheap, they’re not willing to pay for parking, but we can afford to pay for parking, so we should just go park in the lot” said one of my friends.
I wanted to give him the benefit of the doubt. After all, the locals are indeed a bit seedy (we were in marijuana country) and we had children in our group, so perhaps my friend just wanted a more wholesome environment for the kids. However, something about the way he said “cheap” made me think that wasn’t the whole reason. There was the implication that the locals had to be cheap because they don’t have a lot of money, but because we are all gainfully employed, there was no reason we shouldn’t pay for the convenience of parking in the lot.
My suspicions were confirmed when, as we were approaching the gate to the parking lot, we spotted a parking space just outside of the lot where we could park for free and walk the extra 50 feet or so to the park – we’d get free parking, and we would be in the park with the tourists rather than the golf course with the locals. “Let’s just park there and walk into the park” I said, which thankfully at least got the agreement of one other person in the car. But despite that person being the one driving the car, she instead listened to her husband, who chimed in with “nah, let’s just go into the lot, it’s fine.” | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
Thank you all so much for your encouragement about the cocoon coat on my cape thread:
I'm glad you think it looks good on me. It is a new silhouette for me so it takes some getting used to. I will try to get back and respond to your wonderful comments, but have been rather busy the last few days. In the meantime, I did pull out the cocoon coat again, even though DH thinks it is "too big" on me. I don't think it is a duplication to have a purple cape and a purple cocoon coat (right?), since they don't seem to cover the same outfit silhouettes. Like I wouldn't be able to wear the cape with the black AllSaints dress, and the cocoon coat wouldn't work with the plaid fit and flare midi skirt. Hopefully there is not too much overlap, so I can justify keeping and wearing both!
With Rachy's recent thread about shadow personas, I realized that these two outfits demonstrate my idea of my shadow persona. The first outfit is my darker, edgier UWP shadow persona and the second outfit is my usual straight up polished ladylike luxe. Kind of like my good girl and my noir personas, LOL. I even have two different watches which is how I can tell which persona I am.

Walter’s House, Snob Hill, School House, Lee’s Lumber, Goldroad.
Walter’s House was built by Jack McIvers of United Eastern Mining in 1916. When the mining slowed, Jack took his family to another location leaving everything in the house as it was, with an apparent intention of returning. He never returned and Bob Lyons lived there for a time. In 1990 the house was eventually sold to Bob McKenna. Can you imagine what historical treasures must’ve been left behind? Currently you will find Brad and Kelly Blake and Mayor of Oatman, Walter the Orphan Donkey in the now bright yellow house.
Lee’s Lumber Building (Oatman Mercantile) has been there since about 1906. It was also a service station at one time and was closed for many years. It is thought to be one of the most haunted buildings in Oatman.
To your left and up the hill you will see the homes of Snob Hill and one of two Oatman Schoolhouses. As with most mining towns, the area where the mine bosses and owners lived was called “Snob Hill” and was typically above town so as to be able to see the area.
The school house was built in 1917. There was never a high school in Oatman so the students were bused to Kingman for high school. The school building was closed in 1956. Currently there is not a school in Oatman.
Goldroad, a neighboring gold mining camp, is less than 3 miles ahead up Route 66. In 1902 the Goldroad post office was opened. This company community of about 300 people, was sold, closed, re-opened and changed a number of times until 1943 when it was closed due to the war effort. By 1953 many of the buildings were torn down or moved and equipment sold off. Goldroad mine was purchased and opened again in 1992 and has been closed and re-opened several times since then.

Annie Edson Taylor was born on October 24, 1838 in Auburn, New York. On October 24, 1901, her 63rd birthday, she became the first person in history to go over Niagara Falls in a barrel and survive. Ms. Taylor hoped to secure her financial future with the stunt, but aside from some initial speaking engagements and a memoir she didn’t make much money. Her manager stole the barrel, and she had to use up her savings to hire private detectives to track him and the barrel down again. Annie died in Niagara County and her body is interred in the ‘Stunter’s Rest’ section of the Oakwood Cemetery in Niagara Falls on the New York side of the waters. In her honor I am reprinting a post I wrote after visiting the waterfalls of southern Laos. – Jadi
On our last trip to Laos we headed south to the quiet little city of Pakse in the Chapasak province. We wanted to see old ruins – and really spectacular waterfalls!
For the latter we booked a guide to reach the Bolaven Plateau. Hiking in to some of the waterfalls was a gloriously steep, wet walk.
Later, with the same guide (and boats) we were carried to 4,000 Islands (Si Phan Don). I was beyond amused to notice the signs on some of the guesthouses in 4,000 Islands, announcing that special, magical pancakes were available for breakfast…. My German husband missed the inference and asked why I was laughing. “Guests can get their pancakes laced with the noble herb,” I informed him. Sure enough, plenty of tourists in the 4,000 Islands region spent all their time literally hanging out in hammocks. They were all way too relaxed – or something – to be ambitious. They were in no hurry to explore.
The Mekong River splits into branches at this end of Laos and tumbles over boulders and channels cut through rock.
When the French colonized Laos they came up with a bold (and ultimately quixotic) plan to build a railway through the region. They wanted to go around the waterfalls and create a faster, easier way to travel and ship goods either to the north, or to the southern Vietnam port of Saigon. The result is what a CNN article wryly refered to as “Laos’ first railway: 14 km of rust” .
The Mekong defeated the engineers, and 4,000 Islands is a beautiful sleepy area.
But oh, those waterfalls on the Bolaven Plateau: we hiked in to as many as our young guide was willing to take us to. And we didn’t even need a barrel.
In memory of Annie Taylor, 24 October, 1838 – 29 April, 1921
NOTES: I turned 16 the year that Pink Floyd’s Dark Side of the Moon was released. If you know me, you know this fact explains everything, including what makes me laugh.

But this is essentially also the case in Subversion. Copying and moving

metadata associated with different revisions.

Moving *is* renaming; Simon is doing just what you describe. In
addition, Subversion provides this filesystem metaphor for organising
your labels. Some people see this as an advantage, even if others find
it constraining. If you're in the second camp then that's certainly one
motivation for you using git or mecrcurial or whatever is your
distributed version control system of choice, but for some people at
least, saying "system X doesn't have all this filesystem bollocks" is
making a virtue out of a lack of a feature.
I unfortunately do not know how to turn cheese into gold.

The narrator states right at the beginning of ‘500 Days of Summer’ that this film is not a love story. You think, “Yeah right. It has a boy, a girl, and its about their relationship, how is that not a love story.” Well, I’ll further afirm the fact, that ‘500 Days of Summer’ is not a love story, its more like a story about a character and his understanding of fate, emotion, and relationships.
Directed by Marc Webb, ‘500 days of Summer’ tells the story of Summer (Zooey Deschanel) and Tom (Joseph Gordon-Levitt) and their relationship, from start to finish. Tom works at a greeting card company, and Summer starts as an assistant to Tom’s boss. Tom, something of a hopeless romantic, instantly falls for her. As luck would have it, things work out in his favor, and the pair begin their relationship.
The film tries to be slightly more realistic then your general relationship movies (I use “realistic” loosely here). Rather then, the two meet, the two fall in love, in this, two meet, and the two become friends. Then, one thinks the relationship is one thing, the other things its another (is this sounding familiar to anyone?). The film is told almost all through Tom’s perspective.
The cinematography is awesome, the film takes place in Los Angeles, and the film highlights some of LA’s older architecture, to go along with Tom’s dreams of one day becoming an architect. They really did a great job of showing Los Angeles in a different light, I don’t remember seeing one free way or traffic jam. The whole film jumps back and forth giving you spots from the beginning and end. There are dream sequences that did remind me of Amélie, but this isn’t bad thing.
The film does have some “name-dropping moments,” as I’ve come to call them. There are a few scenes where the characters discuss some of their favorite bands, The Smiths, Belle & Sebastian, etc. This type of stuff drove me nuts in ‘Juno,’ because it comes off like their trying to prove to me how cool they are by throwing these band names in there. But, it didn’t feel as ridiculous as it did in ‘Juno.’
One thing I will say about the movie, and I don’t feel that its a spoiler because its pretty clear in the trailers that at a point the relationship goes wrong. During that time, you really did feel like you were the one going through the relationship with Tom. You had the pit in your stomach, you had the same hope as Tom that it would work out.
‘500 Days of Summer’ could have very easily been a goofy, clichéd movie, but we are convinced due to the stellar performances of Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Zooey Deschanel. Both are great young actors in roles that seemed written for them.
So this Summer, catch ‘500 Days of Summer,’ you won’t be disappointed. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
When it comes to choosing a great place to work, many people ask: What makes a company great? It’s a vital part of any organization’s strategy to attract and retain talent, and it’s also a reflection of the changing industry.
The last few years have taught people that they want to work for a company that cares. Companies must listen to this demand and strive to create a great working environment to attract top talent. Here are some tips on how to do that.
A company that values its employees can provide them with various benefits and salaries designed to allow them to live comfortably in their local area. It can also offer flexible work hours and other perks, such as profit-sharing, free counseling, stock options, etc.
Holding yourself to the same standards as everyone else is also a great way to motivate employees. This is also one of the characteristics of a good manager. Great leaders can practice what they preach and are passionate about the issues that affect the world around them. They should also be able to address the concerns of their employees and improve the company culture.
Positive Company Culture
A company’s culture is defined by its core values, including honesty, self-improvement, and communication. These are some factors that can contribute to a thriving work environment. Other factors include location, work hours, transparency, PTO, and team-building exercises.
Communication was mentioned in the point above, but it deserves to be singled out once again, as it is critical to establishing a positive workplace.
When it comes to choosing a great place to work, communication is the most important factor employers consider. Having open and transparent communication helps build trust and makes employees feel valued and included in the company’s success.
A healthy work environment can be attributed to the trust that employees have in their managers and the company’s leaders. They feel that they can work hard and make good decisions. Also, they can trust that the other team members are working toward the same goals. Part of this trust will stem from a company’s transparency. Companies that hide their actions are more likely to lose employees’ trust, while companies that are open and honest are more likely to flourish. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
Founded in 2009, Lyons Wealth Management is recognized as a top-ranking Wealth Advisor and Portfolio Manager having earned a 5 Star Rating by Morningstar. We believe that every investor should have a written financial plan to determine their "number" in order to reverse engineer a plan to reach their goals. This number is the amount of investment value you'll need to achieve a full and happy retirement that could last as long as 30 years! Most investment professionals follow a planning protocol but, in our opinion, they fall short in it's execution. They then use the "status quo" approach to money management. While this may be a fantastic business model for the investment firm, it doesn't accomplish the real essence behind "why" investors seek a "professional" in the first place. If you have sat in front of "pie charts" and been told that "strategic asset allocation" is the key to success, then you are familiar with what this exercise entails. They are simple static allocations, enhanced with the promise of rebalancing, and the tease of "tax-loss harvesting". It's not a sophisticated approach to money management but it is easy to monitor and charge you a fee in return for a lack of any sophistication. Again, a great business model and revenue enhancer for the firm applying it.
We do believe in the capital markets and agree that over time the markets and portfolio values will be higher. However, we differ from the mainstream philosophy of plowing investors through bear markets and telling them to "be patient" and "hold the course". When bear markets show themselves and investors are at their highest level of emotional risk it's often due to fear, driven by media hype and doomist headlines. This is the point when investors will most likely make a potentially life changing and unrecoverable financial decision to "get out" at the worst possible time. It is our observation that bear markets show tell tale signs of their coming onset. So, similar to weather prediction, we do recognize the black economic clouds on the horizon, hear the thunder in the distance, and rely on our proprietary methods to try to avoid large swaths of the prolonged downturn storm.

"The whole Israelite community set out from the Desert of Sin, traveling from place to place as the Lord commanded. They camped at Rephidim, but there was no water for the people to drink. So they quarreled with Moses and said, "Give us water to drink."
Moses replied, "Why do you quarrel with me? Why do you put the Lord to the test?"
But the people were thirsty for water there, and they grumbled against Moses. They said, `Why did you bring us up out of Egypt to make us and our children and livestock die of thirst?'"
Then Moses cried out to the Lord, "What am I to do with these people? They are almost ready to stone me."
The Lord answered Moses, `Walk on ahead of the people. Take with you some of the elders of Israel and take in your hand the staff with which you struck the Nile, and go. I will stand there before you by the rock at Horeb. Strike the rock, and water will come out of it for the people to drink." So Moses did this in the sight of the elders of Israel. And he called the place Massah and Meribah because the Israelites quarreled and because they tested the Lord saying, `Is the Lord among us or not?'" Exodus 17:1-7
Here's Jesus talking with the Samaritan woman at the well:
"Jesus answered her, `If you knew the gift of God and who it is that asks you for a drink, you would have asked him and he would have given you living water." John 4:10
"Jesus answered, "Everyone who drinks this water will be thirsty again, but whoever drinks that water I give him will never thirst. Indeed, the water I give him will become in him a spring of water welling up to eternal life." John 4:13
And here is Jesus as He gave up His life on the cross.
"But when they came to Jesus and found that he was already dead, they did not break his legs. Instead, one of the soldiers pierced Jesus' side with a spear, bringing a sudden flow of blood and water."
From the Psalmist:
"The Lord is my rock, my fortress, and my deliverer; my God is my rock, in whom I take refuge."
I never noticed how the rock that Moses was commanded to strike is such a symbol of the Messiah, from being struck in the presence of the leaders of Israel, to having water flow out, to what the water symbolizes - living water that gives eternal life to all who drink.
Drink only from Him. All other sources of "water" only make you more thirsty. No matter what they tell you.

We had a little get-together for Memorial Day.
Top grill chef around here - 40 hamburgers grilled
The beautiful, spacious table my husband made just days before the event
Doesn't look so spacious now, does it? Especially when things like school buses also need a seat.
Kids table. I may or may not own the child in the white t-shirt
The contrast is marked. See this nice, dainty little girl with the good manners, boys?
Sadly, there were some casualties in the rush to get to the food. Woody, ya just gotta be quick on the draw around here.

Today, we finally arrived at the check-out lane and they were checking out the candy that was available and undressing the mini plastic princesses in the cardboard boxes. I was frantically trying to unload the cart before things - and by things I mean me - got out of control. Caleb started yelling, "Mama, mama, look at this! This is so cool. Look! These say they'll give us 5 hours of energy!!" I glanced at the package of batteries in his hand. "Caleb, let's not waste money. It's better spent on things we actually need." | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

More of just one thing would save the planet: Discernment.
Discernment. The act of perceiving, grasping, and understanding the non-obvious. Having good judgement. The ability to see and understand people, things, or situations clearly and intelligently from multiple perspectives.
Discernment is pretty much the opposite of All or Nothing thinking.
All or Nothing thinking. Thinking in extremes. Black or white, good or bad, either or, one right way, my team over yours. A “cognitive distortion,” or put another way, “messed up way of thinking.” An evolutionary adaptation that allows us to quickly distill an event down to basics so we can make a snap Fight or Flight decision.
There are still occasions in modern life where we might need to emotionally rouse this sort of limited adrenaline thinking. I’m being held up in an alley way; fight or flight. My boss is sexually harassing me; fight or flight.
But most of the time, our daily interactions with friends, family, and coworkers no longer require instantaneous gut reactions for survival. We have the time, luxury, and cognitive capacity to examine the rush of raving emotions, and stop to think about shades of meaning, possible reactions, and their consequences. The process of civilizing humanity (to save us from destroying ourselves) requires the realization that situations are never black or white, we have the ability to chose our reactions, and that there are many more options than fight or flight.
Developing discernment requires first realizing that there are multiple Ways of perceiving and judging. From there, an introduction to using each of these types of perception and judgement makes you more agile in finding alternative viewpoints and explanations. More practice reveals ever greater subtleties in the landscape that once appeared uniform. There’s no longer just light and dark, but now also twilight, dawn, moonlight, and the full glare of noon.
How does this ability to see gradients and refinements save the world?
All or Nothing thinking is polarizing and so it sets us intractably up against each other. It becomes democrats versus republicans and the nuances of serious issues are lost in sports team type rivalry. It becomes my needs versus your oblivion to my needs and the team work of a relationship is lost in the inability to take a step back to get a broader perspective. It is reactive, and reactivity precludes calm observation, reflection, and deliberate decision making — the sort of thinking required to find solutions to serious problems like wars and climate change and being able to communicate with your spouse.
How do you teach a population to see each other’s perspectives? Start by teaching each individual that they contain all the different perspectives within themselves! When you realize that there are already ways in which you and your rival think in the same ways, your rival becomes someone you can identify with. Someone you can identify with is someone you can have a real conversation with. People who can converse are people who can solve complicated problems
This is how I work — by teaching the different ways of perceiving and judging, offering practice using them all in your own life, learning to observe and distinguish them in action in others, and using this language as a basis to begin constructive conversation.
Contact me if you’re ready to get started on this exciting journey of discernment! | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

Which has come back positive, Sara and I had wondered since we both had something vile end of February which lasted and lasted, Sara even rang the GP who assured her that it wasn’t COVID19!
It was certainly unpleasant and I had no lungs for a long time, but since I am Moderate risk.
It’s good to see that it wasn’t worse, I’ve had colds close to that, as I don’t respond well to such things nowadays.
Does it change anything? Not a lot to be honest! I can’t assume that I’m immune or that it will last!

A promise of new challenges
I returned to the University of Manitoba for the winter term refreshed and with renewed excitement. As I walked to my first class, there was a promise of new challenges and experiences in the crisp Winnipeg winter air. Yet with the promise of new, there was also a comfort of old in the familiar hallways and faces that greeted me on campus during that first day of a new semester.
I was especially excited for the lab components of my courses where I could put the theory learnt in lecture into practice. My microbiology lab certainly provided me with some memorable experiences. We had to grow a pet bacterium over the course of the semester, studying its physical as well as metabolic characters. It is needless to say that it was with deep chagrin that I tossed my pet bacterium into the biohazard bin after my last lab, bidding him adieu!
In my lectures, I was blessed to meet some great friends who were enrolled in many of my classes and with whom I shared questions, insights and laughs over the semester. Now slightly more accustomed to the style of university teaching, and no longer fumbling to take notes on tiny tabletops, I was able to better focus in my lectures and absorb the material.
Outside of class, I continued to volunteer with Let’s Talk Science, and had the opportunity to participate in many classroom outreaches. I was able to return to Sagkeeng First Nation, taking a day off from classes, to teach grade four students about matter. One of the activities involved placing liquids of varying densities into small test tubes to create a banded pattern. Many of the students wished to keep their test tubes and to bring them home. The kids’ excitement to go home and show their parents what they had learnt was truly inspiring!
I also continued to go to the rock climbing gym on campus over the semester. Though slightly more adept at navigating the various holds on the wall, I still have much to learn. Nonetheless, I decided to join the climbing competition put on by the University of Manitoba Climbing Club, with the full knowledge that I would make a complete fool of myself in front of the more proficient climbers. It was a very fun afternoon, and unlike any competition I had ever participated in. There was a fantastic atmosphere as everyone encouraged each other to complete various routes and to push themselves to the limit of their abilities.
I cannot believe that my first year of studies has already come to an end. It was a whirlwind of challenges, learning experiences and memories that I will surely cherish for the years to come. Though I still have much to learn about University life, I feel at ease knowing that I will be navigating through my studies with the help and guidance of many. I am so grateful for this, and cannot imagine achieving my goals without this support. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

The death of actor sushant singh rajput, which is being incorrectly reported as suicide in the indian mainstream media , is only the tip of the endless BRAHMIN, BANIA atrocities on kshatriyas which the mainstream media in india is refusing to cover for the last ten years or more , mainly because kshatriya leaders and officials do not openly defend or support hardworking harmless competent kshatriya professionals against the defamation of the GREEDY CRUEL SHAMELESS pathological LIAR brahmin, bania officials
One of the biggest frauds of the shameless LIAR gujju bania ntro/raw employees like tushar parekh, nikhil sha, parmar, is how they are shamelessly and falsely claiming that favorite SEX SERVICE PROVIDER Panaji gujju fraudster school dropout cbi employee naina chandan who looks like actress sneha wagh and her lazy fraud sons karan, nikhil, who do not spend any money on domains at all, and do not do any computer work at all, own this and other domains of a single woman engineer, to pay the kolhapur born panaji gujju sex queen naina chandan, and her lazy fraud sons karan, nikhil, monthly raw/cbi salaries at the expense of the single woman engineer who is the real domain investor
The indian internet news websites like rediff.com, scroll.in, thewire, quint, medianama covers the news of scandals in other sectors like bollywood extensively, no has the honesty and humanity to cover the endless scandals in the indian internet sector, especially the domain ownership FINANCIAL,ICANN FRAUD of raw/ntro employees wherein they falsely claim that their sex service providers like naina chandan, who do not spend any money on domains, own the domains, BANK account of a private citizen to get their sex service providers and sons, other fraud raw/cbi employees monthly government salaries at the expense of the real domain investor.
This monthly government salary for FAKING domain ownership is then used to defame, harass, cheat and exploit the real domain investor to ruin her reputation further, so that they CHEAT, EXPLOIT her further. While the real domain investor is spending rs 4-5 lakh annually for domain renewals, the panaji gujju sex queen naina chandan and her fraud family does not have to pay any money for domain renewals, yet get monthly government salaries for FAKING domain ownership, mainly because the indian government blindly believes FAKE DOMAIN OWNERSHIP CLAIMS of LIAR bania officials ADDICTED to SEX with gujju sex queen naina

Stargate Universe had a big presense at this week’s Television Critics Association (TCA) summer press tour in Los Angeles. The producers (Brad Wright, Robert Cooper) and some of the cast did a short Q&A and gave other interviews. The most extensive coverage of the Q&A is this article at IGN. Here is a snippet:
As to the producers talking about the more ambiguous characters, Carlyle said his Dr. Nicholas Rush was “Very different from characters you would find on most science fiction shows. He’s a very dangerous man. He generally only talks to people if he needs something from them. He’d happily get rid of everybody on the ship, but he needs them. He does some really dodgy stuff.” Carlyle also said that the other characters would gladly “put him in an airlock” if they didn’t have need of his knowledge.
Lou Diamond Phillips was characterized as reassuring Stargate fans in this SciFiWire article:
“The Stargate is at the center of it,” Phillips said in an exclusive interview Wednesday at the Television Critics Association’s summer press tour in Pasadena, Calif. The show will also focus on the combined military and civilian exploration of space, much like SG-1 and Atlantis before it, he added.
He also said, as others have, that there would be different elements:
I think audiences today are looking for something that’s a little more grounded, so to speak, even when you’re doing sci-fi,” Phillips said. “It’s grittier. It’s darker. It’s very much character-driven. It’s about the dynamics between very real people in an extraordinary situation and not so much about heroes and villains, you know?
Several press outlets reported that Universe strives to be as good as Battlestar Galactica, such as this one from the LA Times Blog:
“Make no mistake, ‘Battlestar’ is a quality show, and, yes, we want to make quality too,” said creator Brad Wright.
“Stargate SG-1” ran for 10 seasons, “Stargate Atlantis” ran for five, but “Universe” will be something new. “Other than the Stargate [ship] [sic], which is still very much the core, a whole lot is different from the old series,” creator Robert Cooper added.
There was more coverage, but those articles give one the gist of it! | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

Benefits and strategies for long-term investing

Advantages and strategies of short-term investing
Short-term investing is a strategy for making money quickly by holding stocks for a short period of time.

Therefore, short-term investing requires you to monitor daily stock price movements and react quickly to invest. To maximize your profits, you need to be able to predict market trends and have good analytical skills.
Effects and caveats of the buy low strategy
A bargain-basement strategy involves buying at a low price and selling when the price rises. Investing in low-priced stocks can yield high returns, but you should be careful because the market is volatile and the risk is high. It’s important to carefully analyze a company’s financials and growth prospects before investing, and to take a long-term view. This is how you can successfully utilize the bargain hunting strategy.
Each investment strategy should be chosen based on the investor’s personality and goals, and it’s important to choose the right strategy to manage your assets efficiently.

world-class artists emerging from its centres of rural areas and urban
centres, Alberta has supported the growth of Canada's art scene while
raising the privince's profile. The international display of works created
by Alberta painters such as H.G. Glyde, Jane Ash Poitras and Janet
Mitchell attests to this fact. Beyond serving the arts, images produced by
such individuals also serve as documentation of what life was like during
their times. Landscapes, people and events are all depicted as experienced
through their eyes.
Previous to the early 20th century, art education and
exhibition was not prominent in the prairies. Instead, older and more
heavily-populated cities, such as Montreal and Toronto, acted as focal
points for visual and performing arts. This does not mean that the
relatively isolated province of Alberta was not bustling with artistic
energy at the time, but rather that artistic affiliations were not
organized at a larger and formal scale, nor were they highly acknowledged
and supported by the general population.
As urban centres began to flourish in Alberta, more
readily available resources allowed painting to gain prominence. With more
money and time available to a wider section of the public, this particular
medium began to take a larger role in leisure activities. By the 1930s,
burgeoning creative hubs began drawing more established Canadians who
wanted to engage in founding art training institutions and exhibition
spaces. Dr. Illingworth Kerr, who went on to become a great influence and
prominent art educator in Alberta, was one such individual who found the
nascent Alberta art community attractive.
From the network of collaborating individuals,
organizations devoted to the arts began to appear. The
Alberta Society of Artists (ASA)
materialized in the spring of 1931 and with strong leadership from its
co-founders such as A.C. Leighton, it undertook the role of advocate and
promoter for the arts in Alberta. With a variety of activities stemming
from it, the Society acted as an impetus for the development of formalized
art education, exhibition and funding. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

Can You Move Out Of State With Children After A Divorce?
People, in general, are far more transient than what they have been in the past. Just because you build a life in one state does not always mean that you will live there for the rest of your life, which can pose problems if you marry someone, have children, and then get a divorce. The fact is, everything gets a little tricky if you need to move out of state, but especially if you have children you share with an ex-spouse who has some level of custody. Here is a look at some of the things you should know if you are considering moving out of state with your child after a divorce.
You will likely have to provide the court good reason for moving out of state
Maybe you decided you just need a change of scenery or maybe living in the same state as your ex is too much. Neither of these reasons are likely to satisfy the family law judge enough to make the move possible. Before a judge allows you to move out of state with your child after a divorce, they will need to see a logical reason for your doing so. Plus, this reason should be something that will benefit the child in the long run. For example, the judge will be more likely to approve of the move if you are moving because:
- There are job opportunities elsewhere
- There are better healthcare services available for a child with special needs
- There are family members who can help you care for the child
Your reasons for moving must be enough to offset less time with the other parent
In the eyes of a family law judge, it is best for a child to have interaction with both parents on a regular basis. Therefore, if your out-of-state move will mean your child will see the other parent less often, your reason for moving must be really beneficial for the child.
You may have an easier time moving out of state if you're getting married
A child in a two-parent home is most often viewed as living in a more stable environment by the court system. This means if you are wanting to move out of state because you are getting married, you may have a better chance of getting the move approved by the court system in your state.

Lawrence Taliaferro was a son of a Virginia slave-owning family and an Indian Agent on the Minnesota frontier from 1820 to 1839. Recuperating in Bedford after a probable injury in the War of 1812, he met Eliza Dillon. Eliza was the daughter of Humphrey Dillon, a local hotel owner. They married and Lawrence `gave` one of his slaves, Harriet Robinson, to his new wife. They took Harriet with them when they later moved to the Minnesota territory.
Soon, Harriet met and married another slave named Dred Scott. They filed multiple suits in a trail of trials attempting to win their freedom, which culminated in 1857 in the U.S. Supreme Court decision in Dred Scott v. Sandford. This trial was widely recognized as a major factor in the coming of the Civil War. The majority opinion, written by Roger Taney, found that no African Americans, free or enslaved, could be citizens with rights that the U.S. Constitution was obligated to recognize or respect. Taney was a friend of President James Buchanan. The President was a frequent visitor at the Bedford Springs,
After many years of service, the Taliaferros returned to Bedford, where Lawrence died in 1871.
Corinne Monjeau-Marz of Cottage Grove, Minnesota, has recently published a facsimile edition of Lawrence Taliaferro's Autobiography, written in 1864 and first published in 1903, with supportive materials provided by Thomas Shaw and Bill Fine.

Scientists have discovered the remains of a massive marine reptile, potentially the largest ever found, dating back 200 million years. The creature, an ichthyosaur, was unearthed in Somerset, UK, and represents a new species and genus, which has been named Ichthyotitan severnensis or “giant lizard fish of the Severn.”
Ichthyosaurs were dominant sea predators during the Mesozoic Era, spanning from 251.9 million to 66 million years ago. The newly identified species lived at the end of the Triassic Period. Unlike dinosaurs, ichthyosaurs evolved from a different lineage of reptiles, showing a parallel evolutionary path to whales, including breathing air and bearing live young.
The discovery was made at Blue Anchor, Somerset, where the first fragment of the fossil was found atop a beach rock, likely placed there by a passerby. This find led to further exploration between 2020 and 2022, uncovering a total of 12 fragments from the surangular bone in the lower jaw. Researchers estimate the creature was about 82 feet long based on the 6.5-foot-long bone fragment.
This new genus and species add to the over 100 known species of ichthyosaurs. The remains suggest that I. severnensis lived during a time of significant volcanic activity, potentially linked to a mass extinction event at the end of the Triassic.
The site’s proximity to another significant ichthyosaur discovery in Lilstock, where a similar but slightly smaller specimen was unearthed, underscores the area’s paleontological significance. Previously, the largest marine reptile was believed to be Shonisaurus sikanniensis, found in British Columbia, measuring up to 69 feet.
The discovery of Ichthyotitan severnensis provides critical insights into the size range and evolutionary adaptations of ichthyosaurs, hinting at the diverse ecological dynamics of prehistoric marine environments. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
My favourite description of Lovelace so far, featured on a promo for a night we played in June 2014:

Isn't it beautiful, the sky"

Oh oh! At first glance the obvious answer is no. You’ve met the love of your life, settled down, got married and have committed yourself to a life of monogamy… so why do you find yourself constantly thinking about Eamon from accounts, or Jennifer from the gym?
A crush or an infatuation is an absorbing passion for someone. It means you think about him or her all the time and imagine what it would be like if you were together. Because it is all in your head, this alternate life is blissful. But that’s only because you never get to find out that Eamon is useless at helping out around the house, leaves his dirty socks everywhere and is way too fond of World of Warcraft; or that Jennifer snores really loudly, takes hours to get ready, and talks during films.
Most crushes are based on unrealistic expectations and sometimes the object of your affections has no idea you have any feelings towards them. If your crush is a celebrity they might not even be aware you exist, even if they did retweet something you wrote that one time.
Crushes are not all bad. Many successful relationships start with a crush, but only if you learn to revise your expectations so that they are more realistic. Yup, Eamon is a domestic sock terror, but great with kids; and Jennifer may talk during films, but she’s also a great listener. After all, most of us are a little bit infatuated with our partners. It only becomes unhealthy if you idealise a person so much that love becomes impossible, as the real-life person will never be able to match up to your fantasy of them.
Most people stop becoming seriously infatuated as they get older — we wise up. Even if you are in a happy long-term relationship it is possible to find yourself drawn to another person. It’s completely normal — that’s just human nature. The big question is what do you do about it. The short answer of course, is nothing.
If you are already in a relationship, the important thing to remember is that most infatuations don’t last very long. If you want your relationship to work, don’t act on a crush. You already know this, but if your relationship is going through a tough patch, giving in to temptation may seem a good idea. It almost never is.
Social media has made it possible to get back in touch with old flames or people you fancied when you were young and fancy-free. Touching base is not necessarily wrong, but if you find yourself messaging someone everyday and even making plans to meet, you are on a dangerous, slippery slope that could lead to infidelity. A good rule of thumb is to consider how you would feel if your partner was engaging in the same behaviour. If it would upset you, chances are it will upset them.
Work can be another source of temptation. Many of us work long hours and spend more time every day with colleagues than with our partners. Some people have a “work wife” or “work husband” — a colleague that they work closely with who is also a good friend. For the most part these relationships are harmless, but if you find your feelings are becoming more than friendly, you need to reign them in, and, if possible, minimise contact with the person. If they return your feelings you are risking infidelity, and possibly your family life, for what is most likely a temporary obsession.
A crush can be caused because we subconsciously feel inferior to the person we admire; we may have difficulties at home or work and daydream about starting a new life; or we might be bored sexually with our partner. You might feel guilty about having a crush but For the most part it is just a passing fancy, and as long as you never act on it, a crush doesn’t mean you don’t love your partner as much — or more — as the day you got married.
One last thing: while honesty is generally the best policy for relationships, keeping a crush to yourself is wise. Think of it as similar to the sexual fantasies many of us use with our partners. As long as your partner doesn’t know you are thinking about Ryan Gosling or Mila Kunis, it doesn’t matter. One day, probably in the near future, the scales will fall from your eyes and you’ll realise that your crush is a flawed human being — probably very flawed! Yes, your partner is a flawed human being too, but you love him or her. And love, well, that’s so much better than a crush. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
WOW Magda those pieces are wonderful. If you have any left for sale after the show you must let me know. I am a big fan and would love to own one of your pieces. I am going to turn the mixed nuts show into an on line exhibition now (the book didn't end up working out) So I will let you know when it is open so you can check out what everyone did.

This year we are hosting an event at the University of Maryland Eastern Shore’s Mosely Gallery. The gallery is located at the Arts and Technology Center at 11931 Art Shell Plaza in Princess Anne, Maryland. The opening reception will be held on Thursday, June 23, 2016 from 4 – 6 pm. The exhibit continues through July 28. Admission is free and summer hours are Tuesday through Thursday 10 am to 4 pm.
We are asking for items to be contributed for the gallery, anyone is welcome to offer a piece or pieces. The types of items that are shown on the display table at the winter Gichner’s hammer-in would do well. Items that can be on pedestals or on the floor or, depending on weight, the wall. If a piece needs to be on a wall, then the artist should be there to mount it correctly or send directions so it can mount it correctly. Security is reasonably good. Susan Holt (the director) did not have a problem with knives.
Anyone interested in contributed an item please contact Mark Williams at 410-726-4415 or 410-632-0914 or through e-mail at email@example.com | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

Finally! A week where I'm not chasing my tail or working every waking hour. Loving it.
Of course, you might expect that I've had a better week on the workout front, given that work stress has relaxed. But you'd be wrong. I really am a lazy creature and totally enjoyed doing nothing for a couple of days.
It has taken until Wednesday for me to get out to the gym, and the only way I did it was to get in from work, change immediately and go straight back out the door; if I manage to sit on the sofa or glance at the fridge then that is it for the evening!
It's safe to say that self-control is not my natural talent. It's almost like I have to trick or convince myself to get out the door and workout.
My very first before/after workout selfies :)
I don't really believe the spinning machine when it says I've burnt off almost 500 calories. It might be because (although I tried my best) I wasn't always standing on the pedals when it told me to:
One thing that has been working better for me, especially during the week, is eating relatively sensibly. Yesterday I treated myself to a virgin bloody mary and a salad, before my (light and healthy) dinner.
Right, just need to keep it up... | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
Zumba is akin to a workout party. Albeit a healthy one. It has an uncanny resemblance to a dance floor and is quickly becoming the most popular form of workout. It is an intense cardio workout that is effective in burning calories, sculpting muscles and toning your arms- all at once. And what is even more exciting is the fact that like other workouts; monotony will never turn you off. The focus lies on one solo front- burning calories while having fun!
Hydrate and nourish Remember to charge up your body for the workout. Pre and post-Zumba nutrition is an important aspect to focus on. Hydration helps avoid cramps in the legs and food keeps you energized. It contains proteins and essential nutrients that prevent muscle breakdown, keeping them strong and flexed while you dance.
Results take time
It is assumed that Zumba being a rigorous exercise regime helps you attain results faster. However, expecting a drastic result in your weight or muscle toning is unrealistic. Like every other form of workout, Zumba is also a process that requires dedication and persistence.
It is for everyone
Do you have to be good at dancing to keep up? No. Even if you have two left feet, Zumba can still be your thing. It is not about being a good dancer. Zumba moves are easy and adaptable. The class is a very inclusive space and there is no age bar or prerequisite skill required. Remember the rule of ABCD- Any Body Can Do.
Focus on comfortable clothing
Think side-to-side movements and pivots when we say Zumba. Easy to move in outfits are most crucial when it comes to this fitness form. Moreover, your clothes must be lightweight and help with excessive sweating challenges. Lastly, do not forget to pick a pair of kicks that support the moves. Dance sneakers or cross trainers are the best picks for Zumba.
Know the foods you can and cannot eat
Proper diet and nutrition top the list of any fitness program. Without that, Zumba can easily cause weakness and exhaustion during your workout. Consider the dos and don’ts of food consumption when you opt for Zumba. Go for diets rich in carbohydrates but low in fat.
Zumba is not a goal and neither is it a competition. It is more to do with enjoying the journey toward fitness. And this interesting and exhilarating fitness training can have healthy add-ons such as nutritious snacking options.
Cheers to a fitter, happier and tastier life!

New to Zumba? 5 Things to Know Before You Kick-Start Your Fitness Journey | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
Last week I was a chaperone for my daughter’s 3rd grade camping trip. On the way home we spied a beautiful orange Chicken of the Woods mushroom on a tree and promptly harvested it for weekend dinner. Foraging for wild mushrooms is such a rewarding endeavor. Out in the woods for a walk and I discover a lovely, edible and delicious gift of nature that I can whisk home and cook for dinner (for preserve for later use.) Better yet, the only price I paid was a bit of fresh air.
When I cook wild mushrooms I try to keep it simple and unadorned. Unless you’re an ardent forager, wild mushrooms are a real treat. I want their unique flavor to shine, so I keep heavy masking flavors out of the mix. We had dinner with friends Saturday night so I made this easy mushroom tart with store-bought puff pastry. Served at room temperature it makes a great appetizer or main course with a salad.
If you don’t have wild mushrooms, store bought or rehydrated dried mushrooms work very well in this dish. It’s hard to go wrong with a little pastry, butter, herbs and garlic to show off even the humblest of mushrooms. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
A Notable marriage.
--For some time a portion of the community has been all agog with gossip concerning the past intimacy and probable future marriage at no distant day of a distinguished preacher, lawyer, politician, and military man, to a fascinating widow of this city.
On the 28th of June last
Col. Henry W. Hitliard had the misfortune to lose his former estimable consort.
During the interval from that time to this
Col. Hilliard has been engaged publicly commanding the Legion from this State in
East Tennessee, and when occasionally at home he has preached and administered the sacrament to the
Methodist congregation in
Recently it was announced that he had resigned his commission in the army, and had been admitted into the Georgia Conference, and would take pastoral charge of the
St. John's Methodist Church at
All this was not surprising to a community so well acquainted with
Mr. Hilliard's versatility of talents and grace and eloquence in the pulpit.
When, however, it was announced on Thursday evening that the reverend minister had actually been secretly married to
Mrs. Eliza A. Mays, on the night of the 7th of August, by
the Rev. Dr. E. Baldwin, of the Methodist Church of
Madam Rumor was astounded and chagrined that she was so far behind time.
It appears that the parties had intended to make their nuptials public in a year from that date, but in the meantime circumstances prevented the second marriage.
Mr. Hilliard was about taking his departure for
Augusta, on Thursday evening several persons were assembled at the house of the former
Mrs. Mays to hear a written revelation of the mystery, which was solved, so far as the public have any insight, substantially as we have stated the facts.

Do you like to please?
It may be because of Low self esteem!
Pleasing others is one common trap that indiates you may be suffering from low self esteem.
Low self esteem starts from childhood. When you were a child growing up you probably sought the approval of your parents and chances are when you did something they didn’t like they got angry with you and maybe you got into trouble. Many people spend their lives trying to please people and make this their main aim in life.
You may not be aware however this way of living causes a lot of problems for you. Why?
By trying to please other people you may be ignoring your own wishes and this will make you feel like a victim. You need to have a balance between your own wishes and those of others. When this balance tips over so you feel like your whole life is controlled by your need to please everybody the result is not only stress and unhappiness but low self esteem.
If you suffer from this problem and want to break free then you need to do several things.
The first thing you must do is ask yourself why you are trying so hard to be liked by everyone else. Let me ask you this – do you think it is even possible for everyone to like you? How difficult is it to keep everyone happy?
Pleasing others means you start to forget how to say no. If you try you’ll feel guilty. Maybe you believe that a good person thinks of others more than themselves.
Well, yes up to a point. If you want to be a saint then go ahead but remember that you can have a balance where you continue to think of others but give your own wishes and desires higher priority.
Self esteem means valuing yourself and that means being a friend to YOU. Weigh up your own needs against those of others and understand that you simply cannot please everybody.
Pleasing others all the time can give you a victim mentality and that is no good for you or for others. If you believe you are a victim then even though you try you will do things for others and feel resentful and this will give you low self esteem. Stop feeling like a victim and learn to say no. Put your own needs first, that is not selfish because if you do not look after yourself you can’t be a good partner, wife, husband , parent or whatever. Learning to say no and to stand up for yourself will boost your self confidence too.
Now many people pleasers try this and go to the extreme so be careful. Don’t become the opposite and ignore others completely as this kind of reaction is just as bad. You are looking for a balance.
How to stop trying to please others ?
Here are some suggestions:
Know yourself – this is the first step towards self-awareness. When you know your own wishes and goals then you can decide to make it a priority to doing what you want to do in your life and restore balance so that you put your needs forward.
If you have been looking for the approval of others and spent your time trying to please everybody but yourelf you need to do one very important thing. You need to look for your own approval. What is more important, what others think of you or what you think of yourself?
Become your own friend. You need to start taking care of you. The first and most important step towards becoming your own best friend is self acceptance. Be happy with who you really are and then you can learn to like that person.
Set your own boundaries and stick to them. You decide what your priorities are. What do you want to give your time to? You have the right to decide and you have the right to say no to others. Create your boundaries so that you allow yourself time to fulfill your needs and allow that balance between saying no and helping others to develop. There is no need to feel guilty about these boundaries as they are necessary.
So stop playing the victim and no matter what your past has contributed to your need to please people, you can change. Your new attitude will bring more happiness, confidence and self esteem into your life and you’ll be a more balanced person. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
Last time, I had suggested an experiment for you to try if you have a relationship that you’d like to improve. Essentially, the experiment starts by keeping track (in your mind) of how often you offer a “compliment” (encouragement, appreciation, or positive statement) compared to how often you offer some sort of criticism.
Sometimes, just keeping track leads to an improvement. And if it does turn out that you see that your interactions in the relationship are skewed toward the critical comments versus the appreciative, then it could be worth making an effort to change that. Deliberately increase the positive comments and hold off on some of the criticisms. See what happens.
This sort of experiment probably won’t do any harm, and if it improves the relationship even a tiny bit, it could be well worth the effort.
Does that sound like a manipulative approach to getting the improved relationship that you want? I’m always wary of manipulation—underhanded attempts to trick someone into doing what you want them to do.
However, I think that the practice of deliberately looking for things to appreciate and recognize is not manipulative at all. In fact, it may turn out to better reflect reality than a more critical approach. How so?
Some of us have a predilection to take good stuff for granted but feel the need to point out shortcomings. We think we’re “improving” others. But there may be lots of good stuff happening in the relationship. If we don’t make a habit of paying attention to it, we may not even see it.
Here’s another application of this positive to negative ratio idea; this one involves no one but you.
At the end of the day, some folks make a habit of looking back; perhaps even keeping a journal. You write down the notable events of the day; the good, the bad, the big, the small. It’s a record of your life. Considering how easy it is to forget things, it’s a pretty helpful habit to develop!
Take a look at your journal if you have one. Or just think back.
How many notable, positive things do you see? How many negative, unfortunate, unhappy things do you see?
If you’re feeling dissatisfied, and you see that your ratio shows many more unhappy things than happy things, you might perceive that to be the cause. Negative events probably do contribute to dissatisfaction.
However, if you want to make a change and you honestly don’t know how to start, here is one tiny suggestion to help you move in a different direction. It’s a very simple modification to the practice of keeping a journal.
Instead of writing down all the events, just write down the good ones.
That is, each day, deliberately look for positive things. I suggest looking for three good events each day, even if they seem tiny or insignificant.
If you are not used to doing this, or if you are really in a funk, it may be difficult to find even one good thing. It’s worth the effort to look.

Like most of the islands in the Salish Sea, Xwe’etay/Lasqueti Island has diverse and abundant Indigneous heritage sites. These sites take the form of small and large settlements, short term camps, lookout sites, burials, cultivated, managed, and modified landscapes and ecosystems, and isolated belongings (artifacts). They can be in all parts of the island, from the intertidal to the uplands.
Our limited excavations and surveys indicate that Indigenous heritage sites range in age from the 18th century to 1000s of years ago— when sea levels receded enough to make the island inhabitable. Collectively, these sites reflect the deep history of multiple generations of Indigenous Peoples, living on, connecting to, forming, and being formed by the island’s land and sea.
Unfortunately, the record of Indigenous heritage sites on Xwe’etay/Lasqueti Island are being lost at a rapid rate. In the last 40 years, some of the islands most major and important sites have been almost completely destroyed with no archaeological investigations before hand. Thus, we have lost 1000s of years of history and details about generations of lives lived on the island.
While we focus on Xwe’etay/Lasqueti Island in our project, the archaeological record and the social-ecological context in which it is nested, parallels that in many places in other Gulf Islands, throughout British Columbia and Canada, and indeed, the world. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
Jade's school does a great dance festival. I have loved it both years she has been there. They do an around the world theme. So, each class does a dance from some region in the world. There was a ninja dance, a Brazilian dance, a Jewish dance and for the first graders, there was an Aztec dance. (Last year the kindergarten class did the Chicken Dance).
Really, does the tongue have to be out on every picture when she is concentrating?
Jade did an adorable job, really knew the dance and pretty much got into it.
This is Gabby. She is one of Jade's best friends. If you ask Jade, she'll say she's her "BFFFFFFF" I think she's missing that the B and F actually stand for something and that "BBBBBBBF" actually makes more sense. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
Originally from Oregon Solar News
My first introduction to solar was either helping a friend design a solar cooker in an engineering class or using my hand lens magnifier between the sun and a small pile of dry leaves to start a campfire at geology field camp in Eastern Oregon. Either way, both seemed like rather economical methods to harness a readily available source of renewable energy. After earning my geology degree it was a natural fit to end up in the energy industry. I started working with utilities and developers to site and permit large gas pipelines and offshore terminals. Around 2006, the market shifted in consulting and my experience planning linear projects that crossed multiple jurisdiction was suddenly repurposed for permitting new long distance electric transmission lines and substations required to interconnect stacks of renewable energy projects proposed nationwide.
My solar story is really more about upgrading the transmission “highways” to keep the solar power flowing. High quality solar and wind potential can be present far from major cities or industrial operations that need power. Therefore, significant upgrades to the existing electric transmission systems were planned and are still needed today to get solar and wind power to customers. The electric transmission network in the US was under-built from the beginning, therefore the grid does not have extra capacity available to connect and transport electricity from hundreds of megawatts of new Wyoming wind turbines or eastern Oregon solar installations yet, but we’re working on it. As we move to more distributed renewable generation like rooftop solar, the distribution line network will also need significant improvements.
In 2016 my solar story shifted north when I moved back to Oregon from California. I took the plunge at the request of a client and opened my own company, 7Skyline, LLC. Leveraging my experience helping to interconnect solar projects in the Southwest, I am now working with new clients
to plan and upgrade or build new transmission, substation, and distribution projects to benefit solar. These efforts will help meet the Renewable Portfolio Standards that are ramping up in Oregon and across the county. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
I was watching a reality show on MTV a few weeks ago about an overweight girl trying to lose weight (maybe it was "I Used to Be Fat"). It was surprisingly sensitive and well-done. Anyway, I was amused at one point when the girl was going through a Chick-Fil-A drive through. She whispered to the camera: "I love going to Chick-Fil-A because every time you say 'thank you' they have to say 'My Pleasure,'" and she giggled. Then she turned to the guy at the window and kept saying thank you for things and he kept saying "My pleasure."
Last night my father-in-law cooked a big dinner for me and Amber, and afterwards I helped wash the dishes. He made a point to seek me out and thank me for that, which I felt I didn't need to be thanked for. I mumbled something like, "No problem." But thinking about it a minute later, I thought that 'My pleasure' would have been a better reply. It's hard to think of a more excellent response when someone thanks you than assuring them from your heart: "I was happy to...I loved doing it...It's my pleasure!"
What if when we thank God for our bodies, our food, our earth, our lives, and hope, he just grins and says, "It's my pleasure!"

The enzyme, vitamin C, pigment and other important components in fruit and vegetable juice have requirements for light and temperature. However, the cans are made of tinplate three piece cans and aluminum two-piece cans, and are also internally coated with epoxy phenolic coating (sometimes a layer of vinyl coating needs to be coated on the epoxy phenolic coating). In this way, the organic acids of fruit and vegetable juice are not a threat at all.
Diesel cannot be stored in plastic cans because plastic objects are insulators and do not conduct electricity. In the process of storage, diesel may collide with the container due to movement and other reasons to produce electrostatic sparks. If the stored container is an insulator and cannot export the electrostatic sparks to the outside in time, it is easy to cause explosion. Therefore, in order to avoid accidents, it is not suitable to store diesel in plastic cans.

Wenzhou metal can manufacturer
Although glass and plastic packaging have been widely used for many years, metals are becoming more and more popular outside their traditional markets. Brewed beer is a good example, because many beer manufacturers now know that metal cans will not pollute the taste of beer in the cans. On the contrary, metal cans can protect beer from the elements that lead to its quality decline (i.e. light and oxygen), and ensure that these refined beer meet the expectations of brewers and meet the requirements of consumers.
Metal cans are what we often call pop cans. Their lid and body are produced separately and finally assembled together. There are two kinds of materials for making cans: aluminum and tinplate. Because aluminum has high recycling value, for the sake of environmental protection, cans began to use a large number of aluminum. The strong competitor of aluminum in the packaging industry comes from PET materials,
PET materials can be made into strange shapes through injection molds, while aluminum is more difficult. However, there are great differences in the price between the two. Pet is affected by the oil price, while aluminum can be recycled to reduce the material cost. In recent years, in Europe and the United States and other regions with active consumption of cans, the recycling of aluminum cans and aluminum packaging materials has been continuously improved, which also makes aluminum cans rampant. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

New Jersey Senator Bob Menendez will return to Washington D.C. for another six-year term.
He won re-election after a bitter campaign battle with Republican Bob Hugin. In a controversial campaign ad, Hugin highlighted allegations that Menendez slept with underage prostitutes.
“I am so proud that New Jerseyans rejected the politics of personal destruction and the false, negative, salacious ads,” Menendez said during his victory speech.

This Steakhouse Serves Massive Steaks; The Largest In KC
Sometimes you want a big 'ol steak cooked just as you like. For most of us, getting a big 'ol steak is just picking the largest option of the type of steak you'd like from our favorite steak joint. Yet, if you want to go large or go home, some places in Kansas City offer huge steaks, so where in Kansas City can you find a giant steak?
Here's What Reddit Has To Say
It's been a few years since someone asked that question on Jess & Jim's Steakhouse for their 30-ounce porterhouse. A little later, ChiefKC20 mentioned that most true steak restaurants would cut a custom steak for someone. He said he'd done it at Hereford House, Antons, and other places.
. The first response from William_70 citedSo apparently, if you're willing to ask, your favorite steak house may be able to cook you a steak as big as you like. If size matters that much, I'd call to make sure your steak house can accommodate you.
Only In Your State
Back in 2019, Only In Your State published an article proclaiming Jess & Jim's Steakhouse in Kansas City was home to the biggest steak they'd ever seen. They write, "The popular family-owned and run Missouri eatery, which has been an area favorite since 1938, features one massive steak on its generous menu: a 30-ounce Porterhouse steak, prepared just the way you like it. "
They also mention the 25-ounce Playboy Strip, the cut of beef that got the restaurant mentioned in Playboy magazine and helped cement the restaurant's reputation as one of Kansas City's best steakhouses, if not THE steakhouse to dine at.
Chat GPT (AI)
Of course, most of this data is a few years old. So is it Jess & Jim's, or is there someplace else in Kansas City with more enormous steaks?
While Chat GPT isn't infallible, it says Jess & Jim's Steakhouse serves giant steaks, citing their 30-ounce Porterhouse. I also confirmed that the Porterhouse is on the menu and is 30 ounces. As another option, Chat GPT suggests Stock Hill, another place known for its large, premium cuts of steak, like A5 Japanese Waygu. However, Chat GPT says steaks at Stock Hill may not match the sheer size of Jess & Jim's offerings. A check of Stock Hill's menu confirms that. The biggest steak offering on the menu is a Delmonico Ribeye or KC Strip at 14 ounces.
So, Who Has The Biggest Steak In Kansas City?
If there's an award for the biggest steak, from the research, I've found that award would go to Jess & Jim's Steakhouse. Jess & Jims is at 517 E. 135th Street, Kansas City, 64145. They're open Sunday from 11:00 AM - 8:00 PM, Monday - Thursday from 11:00 AM - 9:00 PM, and Friday and Saturday from 11:00 AM - 10:00 PM. You can check out their website here. You can learn more about Jess & JIm's in my article, "One Of Missouri's Best Steak Joints Is In Kansas City."
