Flagler students might actually have a reason to stick around on the weekends this year. The college has created a Campus Activities Board so students will have more campus events to participate in both day and night.
According to Carrie Meyer, advisor of the new Campus Activities Board, there will be three committees — one for student performances, one for on-campus events and one for weekend events.
“I would like to see more students entertained enough on the weekends that they will consider staying on campus instead of traveling home,” Meyer said.
The board will be putting together events every semester to get students more involved with school activities, especially on the weekends.
For this semester no events have been planned yet, but the board would like to host game shows, open mic nights, de-stress days, coffee house type activities and poetry readings.
Events that Flagler has every semester, like the formal, will be hosted by the board instead of the usual Student Government Association, which will remain the governing body with the board handling the activities.
Meyer said students should not be afraid to give any input on what events they would like to see happen on or off campus. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

Dozens of babies with spina bifida have been spared paralysis after being operated on while still in the womb.
The complex surgery, which may require a team of up to 30 doctors, has been performed on 32 babies in the womb since January 2020, NHS England said.
The condition prevents the spine and spinal cord from forming properly and can lead to bowel, bladder, and kidney problems, as well as paralysis.
Helena Purcell’s unborn baby was diagnosed with spina bifida and had surgery when she was 23 weeks pregnant.
The teacher was first told that her child would likely be paralyzed and incontinent, and that he would need a brain shunt.
She had fallen pregnant on her sixth IVF attempt and gave birth to a baby girl named Mila at University College London Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust (UCLH) in March this year, three months after the operation.
She said: “I can’t explain the huge difference the service has made for my family. NHS doctors are heroes to me, and the surgery they’ve done is just mind-blowing.
“If it wasn’t for them, Mila would be paralyzed. I am so grateful that she had this chance.
Mila is showing good signs of development and is fully continental, although she still has fluid on her brain, and is now in the care of Great Ormond Street Hospital (GOSH).
According to NHS England, operating on babies between 23 and 26 weeks pregnant, instead of waiting until after birth, has a much better outcome for the child.
The team of 30 people involved in the surgery includes fetal surgeons, neurosurgeons, anesthesiologists (for mother and baby), obstetricians, neuro-pediatric surgeons, radiologists, a scrub team and neonatologists, in …

Save Money by Investing in Public Services
Public administration have a huge energy savings potential.
They consume hundreds of kWh across geographically dispersed locations. They can see quick results if they put in place energy efficiency plans, like the Spanish Ministry of Justice did:
- Centralise energy providers to negotiate better pricing.
- Optimise power use.
- Analyse peaks and monitor what happens in each location.
Nowadays, saving energy is not only important for your finances, but you also have an ethical obligation. While service to citizens must be maintained, many public services are under pressure to cut costs. Energy is normally the third highest cost in an organisation.
Don't compromise on services to citizens: save energy and stay productive in an efficient and comfortable environment for public servants.

5th June 2023
We appreciate that your new Alliance is looking at the issue of democratic change which is vital in making our society more equitable. But we are sure that tens of thousands of electoral reformers will be very disappointed — indeed perplexed — by your decision to omit any reference to proportional representation (PR) from the 1 June mission statement of a group that is calling for “radical democratic change.”
Not wanting to change the voting system comes across as illogical if you are serious about making other reforms. And, to be clear, PR is not especially “radical.” More than 90 countries around the world already use PR and this far fairer voting system elects the legislatures in both Wales and Scotland. Westminster is the laggard.
Moreover, we are doubly disappointed that two leading Labour politicians strongly in favour of PR — namely, Manchester Mayor Andy Burnham and Wales First Minister Mark Drakeford — have obviously lost out in making PR a part of your group’s mission statement. Other Scottish politicians from the Greens and the Liberal Democrats, two parties which also support PR as a matter of policy, have obviously lost out as well.
SUPPORT FOR A CHANGE TO PR GROWING RAPIDLY
Your statement is being issued at a time when the overwhelming majority of Labour Party members support PR and three of its largest unions — UNITE, UNISON and USDAW —- all support PR. So do the majority of UK voters. Only the Conservative Party still supports the archaic first-past-the-post (FPTP) voting system.
Set up in the 1880s, FPTP is notoriously undemocratic. It has created hundreds of safe seats and means that millions of votes are wasted. Minorities often rule. Under PR, by comparison, seats won match votes cast. PR is far more equitable and nonpartisan.
AFRDC, which is headed by former PM Gordon Brown, was set up in Edinburgh on 1 June. Here is a press release of its launch:
We in GET PR DONE! ask that the AFRDC consider revising its mission statement and include PR as a basic democratic principle for a democratic country. Retaining FPTP is simply indefensible for democrats.

During the Roman period, which spanned from the 1st century BCE to the 3rd century CE, Palmyra enjoyed significant prosperity and emerged as an important regional power. The city thrived under Roman rule, benefiting from its strategic location and favorable economic conditions. Palmyrene merchants engaged in extensive commerce, connecting the Mediterranean world with the East, resulting in the city’s cosmopolitan character and wealth.
The discovery of the children’s shoes offers a glimpse into the daily lives and material culture of the inhabitants of Palmyra during this period. Shoes were essential items for both children and adults, providing protection and comfort while traversing the ancient streets and engaging in various activities. By examining the shoes, archaeologists can gain insights into ancient Roman footwear design, materials, and craftsmanship.
Furthermore, the finding of these shoes is a testament to the enduring archaeological significance of Palmyra. The city’s ruins, including the iconic Temple of Bel, the Arch of Triumph, and the Valley of the Tombs, have attracted explorers, scholars, and historians for centuries. Unfortunately, Palmyra has also faced significant threats in recent years due to the ongoing conflict in Syria. The presence of well-preserved artifacts like the Roman children’s shoes highlights the importance of preserving and protecting cultural heritage sites in times of turmoil.
Studying these shoes within the broader historical context of the Roman Empire allows historians to reconstruct aspects of daily life, fashion, and societal norms of the time. It provides valuable evidence of the interconnectedness of ancient civilizations, as well as the lasting influence of Roman culture in regions far beyond the borders of Italy.
In summary, the discovery of 2,000-year-old Roman children’s shoes in the ruins of Palmyra contributes to our understanding of the city’s role in the Roman Empire and offers insights into the material culture and daily lives of its inhabitants. These artifacts provide a tangible connection to the past and underscore the importance of preserving and studying cultural heritage in an ever-changing world. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

Round 1 – Big Buck – Union, SC
The GNCC season normally starts in Florida during Daytona Bike Week. Due to Bike Week being later this year, they opted to kick off at the Big Buck in South Carolina. I’ve always liked Big Buck; I’ve just never done well there! But I was excited to get started all the same. I worked hard this off-season and was eager to get out there and race.
I started off around 6th, but I could see the top guys were not far ahead. I stuck with them and came through the pack up to 2nd by the halfway mark. Kailub Russell, Stew Baylor and I had a good battle going until a lapper was down on the big hill climb. Kailub and I went down and let Stew get away, and we never saw him again. It’s funny how when you lose sight of a guy, it’s hard to catch back up.
A good battle with Kailub ensued for the next lap and a half. I felt good, but ultimately a bad line choice and some lapped traffic held me up, and I went on to finish third. I’m out to win this year, but still happy to be on the podium.
Round 2 – Wild Boar – Palatka, FL
With only a week between our first two rounds, it goes by fast. Before I could turn around we were back on the line getting ready to tackle the sands of the Wild Boar. This track is one of our hardest races with how rough it gets. I was ready to battle though.
My start was better this time, coming out in third place behind Ricky Russell and Kailub Russell. We swapped positions through the mud hole section before I finally took control of second place behind Kailub in the field. All of the sudden it started pouring rain, and almost immediately my goggles were toast. I didn’t wear rain goggles! So for the next few laps, with no goggles on, I battled with Kailub and Thad Duvall for the top spot. Everybody was struggling with vision.
When it finally stopped raining, us three were way ahead of fourth place and really going at it. We took turns leading until just after the two-hour mark, when I got stuck in a mud hole and let them get away. Still with a two-plus minute lead over fourth, I got out of the mud and kept pushing. Then while passing a lapper, I tangled with him and went down. Small crash, but somehow I took a foot peg to the groin. My day was done.
It is really frustrating to be in the battle for the win and have that happen. But I’m feeling better now, and ready to reclaim my spot at the front. Can’t wait until Round Three!
Huge thanks goes out to all my great sponsors, as without them I wouldn’t be able to go racing. These guys are the best!

WHERE TO GO?
Dorneywood Garden, Burnham
Dorneywood house is an official residence for a secretary of the state or a minister of the Crown. Its gardens, however, are open to the public and are a wonderful example of 1930s garden design.

You want more money in your bank account, right? Well, in order for that to happen, you’ll either need to make more of it or spend less of it. One way you can save some significant money is by having your ducts insulated. In the long run, this type of custom ductwork will more than pay for itself in the money you save on your energy bills. At Blue Ox, our Minneapolis technicians can provide you with an expert job of insulation so that you can start enjoying the savings.
INSIDE AND OUT
Wherever it’s located in your home – in your custom ductwork, attic, or anyplace else – insulation is key to keeping you from wasting money. The Environmental Protection Agency states that about 20 percent of the air flowing through homes is lost, due to leaks in ducts, a lack of insulation, or both. When you waste air you waste energy. Not only are your bills higher each month, your heating and cooling systems have to work too hard. That reduces the lifespan of the equipment and means you have to replace them sooner. See the domino effect? When you have your ducts insulated, you’ll avoid this effect and have more money in your pocket.
EASY AND COST-EFFECTIVE
Having custom ductwork such as insulation performed in your home is not only very simple, it is a very effective way to stop wasting so much money each month. At Blue Ox Heating & Air, we know the areas of your home that have the most energy loss and will benefit most from insulation.

Audi unveils 2022 A3 sedan-based RS3 model.
The engine powering it is a 2.5-liter inline-five with turbocharging, producing 401 horsepower and 369 pound-feet of torque.
The all-wheel drive system comes with a fresh torque vectorization setup.
The new Audi A3 lineup is now complete with the highly anticipated release of the RS3 Performance model. Set to make its official debut in 2022, the RS3 boasts a powerful 401 hp five-cylinder engine, standard all-wheel drive with torque vectoring, and a more aggressive design compared to its predecessor. (Note: The RS3 Sportback sedan is only available in Europe and will not be offered in the U.S.)
The 2.5-liter inline-five engine that was highly praised in the previous RS3 will continue to be used, but with modifications that will result in increased power and torque. The new RS3 now boasts 401 horsepower and 369 pound-feet of torque, which is 7 horsepower and 15 pound-feet more than the 2020 RS3 in the United States. According to Audi, it can go from 0 to 62 mph in 3.8 seconds, but we anticipate it will be even quicker, considering the previous generation RS3 achieved 0-60 mph in 3.4 seconds. The seven-speed dual-clutch transmission is once again the standard option, and the adjustable exhaust is specifically designed to produce a unique five-cylinder sound.
The enhanced all-wheel drive system of the RS3 now includes torque vectoring for the rear axle. This feature redirects power in varying manners based on the selected driving mode. Additionally, the RS Torque Rear drift mode allows for torque to be directed to a single rear wheel, enabling sliding along the track.
The new RS3 has a slightly wider track compared to its predecessor and is 0.4 inches smaller than the S3. Optional features include adaptive shock absorbers and carbon-ceramic rotors for the front brakes. Standard equipment includes 19-inch wheels.
The RS3 stands out visually with a black grille, a protruding spoiler, and a diffuser on the rear panel. It also features unique lighting elements in the daytime running lights, designed to resemble a chessboard flag. The option for a black roof and matching interior inserts are available. The interior also boasts numerous carbon fiber panels and a digital meter cluster with a track-inspired speedometer display. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

“As your days, so shall your strength be.” —Deuteronomy 33:25
God does not give grace until the hour of trial comes. But when it does come the amount of grace, and the nature of the special grace required is granted. My soul! do not dwell with painful apprehension on the future. Do not anticipate coming sorrows; perplexing yourself with the grace needed for future emergencies; tomorrow will bring its promised grace along with tomorrow’s trials. God, wishing to keep His people humble, and dependent on Himself, gives not a stock of grace; He metes it out for every day’s exigencies, that they may be constantly “traveling between their own emptiness and Christ’s fullness”—their own weakness and Christ’s strength. But when the exigency comes, you may safely trust an Almighty arm to bear you through! Is there now some “thorn in the flesh” sent to lacerate you? You may have been entreating the Lord for its removal. Your prayer has, doubtless, been heard and answered; but not in the way, perhaps, expected or desired by you. The “thorn” may still be left to goad, the trial may still be left to buffet; but “more grace” has been given to endure them. Oh! how often have His people thus been led to glory in their infirmities and triumph in their afflictions, seeing the power of Christ rests more abundantly upon them! The strength which the hour of trial brings, often makes the Christian a wonder to himself!
“Only one life to live and soon is past
Only what’s done for Christ will last!”
Hoping to make the time I have left count for the glory of God.

4Rutabaga: The Underrated Root Vegetable
If you ask most people if they like rutabagas, you’ll most likely get a blank stare or “A ruta-what?”. It’s just not a hip vegetable (but it sounds cool). If you’re cultivating a local food diet, though, the rutabaga should be high on your list of great storage vegetables to grow and eat.
The rutabaga is a cross between a cabbage and a turnip, and its large root is the main reason for growing it, although the greens are also edible. It has a number of other fun names, like snadgie, tumshie, and neep, and is also referred to as a swede (from Swedish turnip). Rutabagas are rich in beta carotene and vitamin C, as well as magnesium and potassium.
Even if you don’t grow rutabagas, they tend to be readily available at farmers markets and grocery stores in the fall, and because they store well, can be purchased in large quantities for winter eating. Store them as you would any other root vegetable, in a cool dark spot (or in the drawer of your fridge).
You can eat a rutabaga any way you would eat a turnip – you are eating turnips, right? – and this root veggie can be prepared both sweet and savory, from the simple mashed rutabaga to oven fries to the more complex Smashed Rutabagas with Ginger-Roasted Pears. Try them steamed or boiled, with potatoes and carrots, usually topped with butter or milk. I like to start with this basic soup template, substituting with the veggies I have on hand.
Root Soup Recipe Template
- 1 white or yellow onion, diced
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 large rutabaga, peeled and diced
- 1 bulb of fennel, diced (remove the pithy core by slicing in half first)
- 2 large potatoes, diced
- 3 parsnips, peeled and diced
- 2 kohlrabi, peeled and diced
- 2 large leeks, sliced
- 1 bunch parsley, minced (I prefer flat-leaf parsley)
- 1 teaspoon salt
- Paprika to taste
Sauté the onion in olive oil, adding the garlic as the onion carmelizes. Place all of the root vegetables in a large pot, cover with water, and bring to a rolling boil. Turn the heat down to simmer and add the parsley and salt. Simmer for 30 to 45 minutes, or until vegetables are tender. Serve with a drizzle of olive oil and a sprinkle or two of paprika. Goes great with a dark bread.
September is International Rutabaga Month, so you can feel some worldly rutabaga kinship if you’re cooking rutabaga any time this month. World peace through vegetables, if you will.
More rutabaga goodness can be found at the Advanced Rutabaga Studies Institute, including the live RutaCam. Besides, if you eat rutabagas, you can be one of the few people who can actually bring it up in casual conversation: “Want to try my rutabaga soup recipe?” | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

Like all the major appliances in your home, a water heater won’t last forever. Most water heaters have an estimated lifespan of about a decade, but when they’re nearing the end of their functional life, you may notice a few warning signs. Some of these include rumbling noises coming from the unit, puddles of water collecting around the heater, and discoloration in the water that comes through your taps. You could even have mud or sand in the water, which is a sign that sediment is building up inside the tank. Rusty water usually means the tank has corroded.

We are excited to share with you our article published in the IEEE Transactions on Medical Imaging:“3D/2D Vessel Registration based on Monte Carlo Tree Search and Manifold Regularization”. DOI: 10.1109/TMI.2023.3347896
(https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/10375552). The following is an introduction to the article：
The augmented intra-operative real-time imaging in vascular interventional surgery, which is generally performed by projecting preoperative computed tomography angiography images onto intraoperative digital subtraction angiography (DSA) images, can compensate for the deficiencies of DSA-based navigation, such as lack of depth information and excessive use of toxic contrast agents. 3D/2D vessel registration is the critical step in image augmentation. A 3D/2D registration method based on vessel graph matching is proposed in this study. For rigid registration, the matching of vessel graphs can be decomposed into continuous states, thus 3D/2D vascular registration is formulated as a search tree problem. The Monte Carlo tree search method is applied to find the optimal vessel matching associated with the highest rigid registration score. For nonrigid registration, we propose a novel vessel deformation model based on manifold regularization. This model incorporates the smoothness constraint of vessel topology into the objective function. Furthermore, we derive simplified gradient formulas that enable fast registration. The proposed technique undergoes evaluation against seven rigid and three nonrigid methods using a variety of data - simulated, algorithmically generated, and manually annotated - across three vascular anatomies: the hepatic artery, coronary artery, and aorta. Our findings show the proposed method’s resistance to pose variations, noise, and deformations, outperforming existing methods in terms of registration accuracy and computational efficiency. The proposed method demonstrates average registration errors of 2.14 mm and 0.34 mm for rigid and nonrigid registration, and an average computation time of 0.51 s.
Work flow 4 consecutive steps
In the method part, the paper firstly defines the vascular topological model, the vascular registration problem and the solution space of the vascular registration, and gives a detailed mathematical derivation of the solution of rigid registration and elastic registration. Detailed calculation process, pleasereferto the original paper (http://doi.org/10.1109/TMI.2023.3347896).
In the experimental part, the author conducted a comprehensive data test on the proposed algorithm, including the robustness test of the algorithm using simulated vascular data with artificial defects (noise, deformation), the robustness test of the algorithm using the vascular centerline calculated by the segmentation algorithm, and the registration test using manually labeled clinical hepatic artery, aorta and coronary artery data. Quantitative and qualitative experiments demonstrate the excellent performance of the proposed method.
(Algorithm in artificial defect simulation of vascular data registration experiment results)
(Algorithm in automatic segmentation of LCA and RCA centerline data registration experimental results demonstrated)
(The algorithm is demonstrated in the registration results of manually labeled hepatic arteries, coronary arteries and aorta)
This method is a key technology to realize spatial positioning and navigation of vascular interventional surgical instruments, which can map the guide wire catheter and other instruments of real-time DSA images into the preoperative 3D vascular space. Hanglokcooperated with Zhongda Hospital Affiliated to Southeast University(东南大学附属中大医院)and the School of Instrument Science and Engineering of Southeast University(东南大学仪器科学与工程学院)to develop a new generation of vascular interventional robot system platform, including the device loading and control of multiple interventional processes and the immersive intelligent teleoperation master platform. At the same time, the research on key technologies such as force feedback force sensing of vascular interventional robot, medical image artificial intelligence large model, robot intelligent control, and surgical robot underlying operating system was carried out. The project was funded by China Postdoctoral Science Foundation (2021M700772).

Have you ever hired a sales rep for your firm?
What were your expectations for his or her success?
I am amazed by how often I’ve heard something like, “Our new rep didn’t bring us any new projects in his first two months – this ‘sales’ thing isn’t working out!”
C’mon… you’re not selling cars where you can meet a prospect (and by the way, at a car dealership, the prospects come to you with an immediate need), build quick rapport, offer a cheap price and close the deal – all in a few-hour window.
We work in a professional services industry… where we’d like deals to close deals that quickly – but we all know it just doesn’t work anything like that.
First, our prospects rarely come to us… connecting with them requires a good website, good marketing and a little outreach by your sales team just to find qualified prospects.
Then even when you do find them… do they have a need? Sure, there will always be that latent need (i.e. Fortune 5000 companies are always doing some kind of research). The challenge is, do they have a need right now? More often than not, the answer is ‘no.’ They just wrapped up a project… or the next few are already committed to another supplier … or they just don’t have one for a while.
So, then, what do you do? Well, now it’s time for relationship building and staying top-of-mind. This means phone calls, emails, sharing articles & other resources… and time.
Remember, no one will buy from your firm or your sales rep until they go through the internal process of getting to know you – like you – and trust you. And that takes time.
And even when a prospect finally gets through that process, there’s still the reality of waiting until they have a project that’s a fit for your services. And that means – wait for it – more time.
Note: And then when you get the chance to bid on a project – which is often out of the hands of the sales rep – you have to craft the winning bid, beating out several other competitors, at least one of whom is already entrenched with the prospect. What’s your bid conversion rate?
It’s like investing in mutual funds for your retirement… while you’d like them to deliver a high return immediately, the fact is, they’re an investment that delivers results over time. Sales in our industry is no different. As a business owner, if you’re going to invest in Sales (and you should), you’ve got to be patient and remember… sales success takes time. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
The Fly agaric is considered the premier shamanic tool among many of the world’s cultures from Siberian shamans to the various North American Native and Meso-American peoples, and pre-Christian European societies. It’s legal, easy to find and pairs magically well with cannabis.
Popular as a cannabis alternative, Mexican Wormwood (Artemisia mexicana) has a long history as a folk medicine and in ritual practices. Smoked, it produces a gentle stimulating effect followed by pleasant euphoria. Discover its cultivation and psychoactive qualities.
The Green Fairy, aka la Fée Verte, lives in the absinthe, an alcoholic botanical blend of wormwood, anise and fennel. Highly ceremonial in its consumption, absinthe is legendary among poets, artists, and psychonauts for its hallucinogenic properties, and is deserving of the utmost regard, as the mythical Green Lady can turn nasty if consumed in excess.
Kinnikinnick, Native American smoking blends, were used for shamanic purposes, medicinal reasons, social rites, and for pleasure. Made from Indian tobacco (Lobelia inflata) and a number of entheogenic add-ons like Sassafras, Bearberry, Indian poke and Bog Bilberry, these psychoactive concoctions could be wildly euphoric.
Tripping horses long puzzled scientists. Turns out, the seeds of Sleepy grass (Stipa robusta) grow a fungus that may contain the highest concentrations of lysergic acid amides—a close cousin of LSD—found in nature. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
Dental billing has seen significant changes in recent years due to greater emphasis on the use of technology, regulatory adjustments, and consumer demands. This is a crucial factor because, for family dental practices and other practices like Van Nuys dental practices, good billing increases fluency and satisfaction among the patients. It is very important that the practitioners are able to gauge the ongoing changes and to fit into these trends for sustainable practices.
How is Technology changing the Dental Billing procedures?
The advancement in technology plays a central role in the transformation of billing in the dental sector. Electronic Health Records (EHR) and practice management software have enhanced the billing department as it has reduced errors while increasing efficiency. These systems include patient records, treatment details, and a billing system so that the record of the patient and claims can easily be updated and processed.
How does automation support billing?
It was found that automation played a significant role in regard to dental billing. Pre-scheduling activities like appointment follow-ups, clarifications of insurance benefits, and submission of claims are activities that can be performed by the automated systems. This helps to decrease eye strain for employees and saves much time that can be useful to perform other activities like patient care.
How does this patient expectation affect dental billing?
It is important to note that patients of today’s world are keen on having a clear and trouble-free bill-paying process. Also, they seek to know the extent of their charges, insurance, and payment plans prior to any operation to be undertaken on them. Practices are adapting by producing treatment plans that include price lists and presenting different payment methods and methods of payment such as online payment and payment by installments.
How to manage regulatory challenges and how can practices adapt to them?
The issue of healthcare regulation poses a major concern to family dental practices because it is quite a daunting task to wade through the many rules and policies governing healthcare. HIPAA rules, coding for procedures, and insurance policies should be observed rigorously and continuously such as medical coding of surgical procedures.
There is one strategic focus that explains the secret of success – innovation, emphasis on patient experience, and compliance knowledge. In this way, family dental practices can gain a foundation for promising, long-term development in a constantly growing network of healthcare services. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

Health Unit Raises Awareness about Pertussis
The Leeds, Grenville and Lanark District Health Unit is raising awareness of Pertussis and the potential for spread in the Leeds, Grenville and Lanark region. This underscores the importance of remaining up to date with vaccinations based on the Ontario Routine Immunization Schedule.
Pertussis (Whooping Cough) is a highly contagious respiratory disease that usually begins with a runny nose and mild fever, but symptoms progressively worsen to severe coughing fits, which can cause vomiting, rib fractures, and serious respiratory distress in some cases. The disease spreads through droplets from an infected person’s cough or sneeze and is particularly dangerous for infants under the age of one and pregnant individuals.
Vaccination is the most effective way to prevent the spread of pertussis. Pertussis is included in a vaccine that also includes tetanus and diphtheria. According to Ontario’s Routine Immunization Schedule, individuals should be vaccinated against Pertussis multiple times throughout their lives to ensure they remain protected against the disease:
- Infants require a dose at 2, 4, 6 and 18 months (4 doses);
- Children between 4 and 6 years old – 1 additional dose;
- Individuals between 14 and 16 years old – 1 additional dose;
- Adults require 1 booster dose once in adulthood (before age 65) and once in every pregnancy
As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, many children in our community have fallen behind in their vaccination schedule. The Health Unit continues to encourage families to connect with their primary health care provider to determine whether all family members are up to date according to the Ontario Routine Immunization Schedule.
If your child does not have a primary health care provider, please call the Health Unit at 1-800-660-5853 extension 2313.

"I wish you could see Grasmere at this moment - the lake smooth as a silver shield for the most part, but freshn'd by partial currents of air which give relief and coolness to a somewhat sultry and electric atmosphere-the shadow'd clouds drag slowly over the mountain sides, and the smokes mount slowly as a solemn hymn to Heaven"
[Hartley Coleridge: Grasmere (1830) in: Prose of Lakeland - B. L. Thompson, p104]
Here is the classic view of Grasmere which greets any visitor, after rounding the sharp bend of the A591 at Penny Rock Wood; coming from Ambleside in the south.
Painted one late April day in 1965 when the air is crisp and light, William has emphasised the distinctive pyramid shape of one of Lakeland's most well-known and climbed hills - Helm Crag, which ends the ridge that swings up Far Easedale and beyond onto Steel fell. He also skilfully reflects all the subtle tones of the surrounding hills in the calm, transparent waters of Grasmere Lake.

“American Horror Story” just introduced, and abruptly killed, the best new character on the show
In a season full of murderous clowns, and probably murderous bees, and a certainly murderous Evan Peters, it’s nice that American Horror Story: Cult took the time to introduce us to a guinea pig. How sweet of them! Who doesn’t want to be friends with a precious, soft guinea pig? Well, the answer to that is simple, because the answer is American Horror Story: Cult.
Like so many others before him, this brand new character — a guinea pig named, WAIT FOR IT, Mr. Guinea — was not long for this world. Shortly after being introduced in the third episode of AHS, “Neighbors from Hell,” Mr. Guinea was taken from us, in a horribly tragic death. Death by microwave.
Things are not great at the Mayfair-Richards house. At the end of Episode 2, Ally accidentally shoots and kills Pedro, and now the town is starting to turn on her (as they rightfully should). Ivy is also starting to turn on her, because Ally appears to be in an unstoppable downward spiral. Also turning on Ally? Their son, Oz. Ally really needs to get her shit together.
This is then when a guinea pig magically appears in the Mayfair-Richards house. Bad babysitter Winter explains that the ~neighbors from hell~, The Wiltons, brought it over, but even that story is shaky AT BEST. Ally doesn’t care who it’s from, because she’s more like, “Get this thing out of my house now.”
Real talk, everyone should be WAY more freaked out about the fact that a guinea pig, complete with a cage, just suddenly showed up in their living room?? But, okay.
At first, Ally is against keeping the guinea pig, but then after she realizes she is being a Shitty Mom, she changes her mind. Oz can keep Mr. Guinea! Oz is so excited to tell Mr. Guinea that he’s got a forever home! But this story does not have a happy ending. While the family is out having dinner, someone puts Mr. Guinea in the microwave and turns it on.
Repeat: Mr. Guinea meets a tragic end in the microwave.
There have been a lot of deaths on AHS, but this one hurts a lot because it was a lovable PET. Is no one save on AHS this season, not even the guinea pig introduced to add a little sunshine and light into a show where clowns behead people? Guess not. Please no one get a dog this season, because I seriously can’t even deal with the thought of that. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
We do not support code customizations. This guide offers a basic reference for developers and advanced users familiar with HTML and Liquid. Always test code changes on an unpublished copy of your theme. For assistance, we recommend finding a professional developer through Shopify Experts ↗ or Task Husky ↗.
With the Custom Liquid setting, you can extend your theme by adding snippets of Liquid or HTML code as a block or section in the theme editor.
The Custom Liquid block provides a reliable and safer option compared to directly editing your theme code. It will help keep your theme copy eligible for updates and avoid conflicts with the original theme code.
Follow the steps below to add Custom Liquid section and test your custom code.
Shopify | Shopify dynamically generates ids for sections but these ids are not stable. The following instructions are a workaround for this platform limitation.
To link to a specific section on a page, you can use a Custom Liquid section with some HTML as a workaround. The HTML will include a special id
property that will allow you to link directly to that section.
Once set up, the Custom Liquid section will not affect the page layout.
Anchor link in the Header doesn't work? If your anchor link in the navigation menu points to a section on the same page, you will need to disable page transitions for the link to work. Go to Theme settings > Animation and deselect Enable page transitions. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

Despite their hardness as natural stones, diamonds remain relatively sensitive and warrant careful handling. A forceful impact or collision with a hard surface can result in the diamond cracking and, in some cases, becoming dislodged from its setting. Therefore, it is essential to handle diamonds with care to prevent such potential damage.
Emeralds, being natural gemstones renowned for their inclusions, invariably possess some imperfections even in the case of high-grade specimens. Due to the inherent softness of emeralds, a forceful impact or collision with a hard surface may lead to cracking and possible dislodgment from the setting.
We strongly advise obtaining insurance for your jewelry. This precautionary measure enables you to establish safeguards, providing the option to either replace your jewelry or recover its monetary value in the event of loss or damage. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
As temperatures drop, often so does participation in outdoor activities, but this doesn’t have to be the case. There is beauty and adventure to be found in nature, all year round.
I’ve been surprised to find that many of the activities I normally engage in during the warmer months are equally enjoyable, if not more so, during the winter months.
One of the biggest challenges to overcome during the winter is staying warm amid a drop in temperature. Through proper planning, this doesn’t have to keep you from enjoying nature. One way I’ve been enjoying staying outside is by engaging in physical activities that keep me moving. While it may be unpleasant to first step outside in the frigid winter months, a little bit of movement can get you surprisingly warm, rather quickly.
A few weekends back, I went on my first backpacking trip to Laurel Snow State Natural Area. The weather forecast was quite daunting, with chilly temperatures during the day and even more frigid temperatures at night. In preparation for these temperatures, I threw on layers over layers, determined to stay comfortable. When my friends and I set off for our hike, we were a bit chilly, but after the first half mile of our journey, we all paused to peel off a few layers.
As we kept moving, I was comfortable in my base layers and could have even been comfortable in a t-shirt. When we got to camp, I was thankful to have the additional layers in my pack that I had peeled off earlier. This serves as a reminder that while It is certainly important to dress according to the temperature shared on the weather forecast, it is equally important to anticipate how your wardrobe can adapt to keep you comfortable the entire time you’re outside. With heavy gear on my back, I found winter temperatures to enhance my experience, rather than be a factor that held me back outside.
There is beauty to be found in nature, all year round. In the summer, there is an abundance of green; spring is dotted with the delicate colors of flowers; and fall is marked with vibrant orange and reds. But winter holds its own beauty, too. There is beauty in absence and in space, and through a lack of color and noise, you can observe things you wouldn’t normally. Freshman Maryn Pope explored the College Woods one February day, and found herself to be more aware of the flora and fauna that surrounded her. She shared that without all the leaves on the trees, she was able to see through the trees down to the creek, a unique view she couldn’t get before.
Arguably one of the greatest reasons to stay outside, even during the winter, is that your favorite places are often less populated when the temperatures are a bit cooler. During the winter months, sophomore Kailtin Koster has found more room in even the most popular of hiking destinations. On a snowy day, while hiking the Chimney Tops, Koster only passed one fellow hiker. The Chimney Tops is a very well trafficked hike in the Smokies because of the stunning views it provides of the National Park. Large crowds of people can make it more difficult to enjoy the stunning scenery.
For the low cost of throwing on a few extra layers, you can be afforded the opportunity to enjoy the beauty and therapeutic sounds of nature, uninterrupted by large groups of people. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

A Northumberland based online community radio station is exposing two new presenters to the airwaves as they develop a new show.
New recruits to Radio Northumberland are professional photographers Shauni Wilson and Aimee Lindsay, known by their business name Layne & Lindsay. The name came from Shauni’s middle name being ‘Layne’ and Aimee’s surname being ‘Lindsay’.
The pair met in 2011 when they started their degree in Commercial Photography. They graduated together and less than a year later they decided to open their own photography studio in North Shields and work together as a photography duo specialising in commercial photography, including PR, Fashion, Industrial and Food.
Now they have joined the radio station to not only provide quality marketing photography but also to present their own show that mixes “happy” songs with their love of photography.
“The show is quite unique in so much that we help people to understand how cameras work and how to take the best possible photographs with the cameras they have,” said Aimee. “We run photography workshops and quite literally we have transferred some of the key points to radio.”
Radio Northumberland based in Manor Walks Shopping Centre Cramlington has been providing 24 hour local radio since it launched in January 2012. It has gained a reputation for community involvement as well as broadcasting music and talk based programming including coverage of Blyth Spartans which has a worldwide following. Everything at the station is done on a voluntary basis with equipment currently being purchased after fundraising or donations or via sponsorship.
Station Manager, Stewart Allen from Bedlington, who as a veteran of more than 30 years in local radio brings a wealth of knowledge with him, was delighted to welcome the girls and is also looking for other volunteers to strengthen the station’s back room staff.
“A successful radio station isn’t just about good presenters and programme schedules,” he said. “We are always looking for people to volunteer with specific skills such as accountancy, admin, telephone answering, office skills and facilities management.”
Anyone interested in helping us out or sponsorship can contact us by email email@example.com or via our Twitter feed @rnorthumberland.
The station broadcasts a variety of music styles and genres with shows by experienced presenters and interviewers as well as shows produced and presented by local schools and other community organisations.
You can find the station online at http://www.radionorthumberland.com/ or Via TuneIn /http://tun.in/seXTX

Pakistan reiterated the significance of the 64-year-old Indus Water Treaty (IWT) and expressed hope that New Delhi would continue to abide by its rules, days after India formally requested a review of the accord.
At a press conference, Baloch stated, “Pakistan views the Indus Water Treaty as a significant one and hopes that India will also comply with its provisions.” She emphasized that both countries have a system in place—the Indus Water Commissioners—that allows for the resolution of treaty-related disputes.
Mumtaz Zahra Baloch, a spokesman for Pakistan’s Foreign Office, made the remarks on Thursday in response to India’s notification from August 30 demanding an examination of the long-standing water-sharing agreement.
In its August 30 notice, India stated that a thorough review of the treaty was warranted due to “fundamental and unforeseen” changes in circumstances, which included the effect of ongoing cross-border terrorism.
After nine years of discussions, the Indus Water Treaty was signed in 1960 and has withstood decades of tensions, including wars, to regulate the usage of cross-border rivers between the two countries.
India has requested a review of the treaty previously. A similar notification was sent by New Delhi in January 2023, claiming Pakistan’s noncompliance with its execution.
The consequences of cross-border terrorism have also caused India to express worry. According to Indian officials, the treaty’s clauses need to be updated to take into account the current state of security. India is not happy with Pakistan’s handling of treaty-related disputes, especially with regard to the Kishenganga and Ratle Hydro Electric Projects in Jammu and Kashmir, which is why India is requesting a review. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
The NCP, led by Sharad Pawar, has faced a significant blow during the Maharashtra assembly election campaign. Shortly after his tour to Indapur, Sharad Pawar returned and a division arose within the party. In the midst of the election in Indapur, Appasaheb Jagdale, a dissatisfied leader of Sharad Pawar’s faction, declared his support for Dattatraya Bharane, the candidate of Ajit Pawar’s faction.
Jagdale had shown his dissatisfaction with the nomination of Harshvardhan Patil, a leader of the Sharad Pawar faction, for the Indapur constituency. Jagdale had stated that he would not back someone who deceives the public. There is a belief that Sharad Pawar had visited Indapur because he was unhappy, but Jagdale deceived him upon his return. Jagdale might become a part of the NCP Ajit Pawar group in the near future.
There is speculation that Jagdale will be appointed deputy chief minister under the guidance of Ajit Pawar, while Dattatreya will also support Bharne during the campaign. He criticized Harshvardhan Patil, stating that he would not back someone who deceives the public. Following this, he declared his intention to step down from his position. Jagdale’s decision has put Sharad Pawar’s party on the defensive in the Indapur seat.
Sharad Pawar visited Indapur today. He encountered angry party officials regarding ticket given to Harshvardhan Patil, but chose not to meet Jagdale and rebel candidate Praveen Mane from Nationalist Sharad Pawar Group. Not long after that, Jagdale made his decision public. Jagdale’s decision to switch sides during the election could also be detrimental to Harshvardhan Patil.
The battle in the Maharashtra assembly polls is primarily between two groupings. The ruling Mahayuti consists of Shiv Sena led by Eknath Shinde, BJP, and NCP led by Ajit Pawar. On the flip side, Mahavikas Aghadi consists of Shiv Sena led by Uddhav Thackeray, NCP led by Sharad Pawar, and Congress. The political parties have finalized the seat sharing formula, announced the candidates’ names, and completed the nominations process.
The deadline for withdrawing nominations is Monday. Around 50 rebel leaders from each alliance are upset for not receiving tickets and have decided to run as independent candidates. In this scenario, political parties have a limited amount of time to persuade the rebels. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
During the Dark and Medieval Ages, the Catholic Church countered scientific inquiry with painful death. With the dawn of the Age of Exploration, rational thought began to emerge from the shadows. The world opened up along oversea trade routes, and merchants returned to Europe from strange and eldritch lands with impressive relics. These were prized by early scientists, who collected the items, forming the first wunderkammern.
Looking in on these wunderkammern was fashionable among Europe's wealthy classes. But to those who amassed the items, wunderkammern were far more than passing fancies. Each item in these collections presented an opportunity to explore and catalog one more piece of the world.
Some artifacts were more dubious than others. One may have found a mummy's hand situated next to a reputed mermaid's hand. And their arrangement within the cabinet or room followed no aesthetic pattern. Instead, the items were tucked away wherever each fit. As a result, macabre juxtapositions often emerged, like a perfectly symmetrical dried starfish book-ended by a syphilis-ravaged skull and a fetish (an idol representing a god) from some equatorial cult.
Other collections were of a medical nature; anatomical oddities like conjoined twins were highly prized, as were abnormalities like human skulls with horns. Some collections were thematic, with many types of a similar artifact that were used as bases for comparison. Peter the Great's cabinet of curiosity featured scores of teeth he'd personally pulled -- he considered himself a dentist [source: Slate].
Wunderkammern were in vogue in Europe and provided Peter with a perfect opportunity to slake his natural thirst for knowledge while introducing an occidental appeal to his nation. Peter was interested in bringing Russia out of cultural isolation and into a more Eurocentric society. A government under constant threat of usurpation kept him busy, and he had to purchase others' collections rather than collect his own novelties. He had a standing order for his merchants and military to bring back any items of interest for his wunderkammer.
He invested in two collections that had achieved considerable prominence. One was that of Dutch scientist Frederik Ruysch. His wunderkammer was a spectacle, indeed. It was as much a statement on life and death as it was about the demystification of anatomy. Ruysch developed techniques for preserving tissue, and he used his methods to create amazing works of art. He often featured fetal skeletons in woodland scenes. Closer inspection reveals the trees and other flora -- the "woodland landscape" -- to be intricate constructions of veins and arteries. The handkerchiefs into which some skeletons wept over the folly of life were flayed brain tissue [source: Gould].
Peter also purchased the collection of another Dutchman, Albertus Seba. He sold the contents of his wunderkammer to Peter in 1717 for 15,000 guilders [source: Towbridge Gallery]. Seba's contribution to Peter's collection consisted largely of exotic animal specimens, for which the Dutchman traded medicine to sailors. Preserved items like squid, poisonous toads and butterflies were shipped from Amsterdam to St. Petersburg.
Although these exhibits sound morbid and strange, there was a purpose behind them. To Peter, the study of abnormal specimens meant dispelling popular myths about the involvement of the devil in the development of what the peasantry considered to be "monsters" [source: Kunstkamera]. As a result, a major part of Peter's collection consisted of pickled fetuses and sections of the human body. This part of the wunderkammer extended to the animal kingdom, as well. It included a two-headed sheep and a four-legged rooster [source: British Library].
The contributions to human understanding that Peter's and others' collections of oddities generated is incalculable. But wunderkammern also left behind other traces over the centuries. Find out about the legacy of wunderkammern on the next page. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

With only three amateur fights in mixed martial arts in his career, Salvador Andres Macias became recognized as a fighter who has a potential to become local amateur 170 pounds champion.
Even though his record in mixed martial arts is not very extensive, his experience in training with martial arts and
When he was 12 years old he came to United States and quickly he signed up for wrestling at John Deere Middle School in Moline. He continued fighting when he went to Moline High School and United Township High School in East Moline. But it was on out there on the streets that he realized that he had a talent for fighting.
“[Fighting] was something that came to me naturally. Fighting on the streets made me understand that I am good at it and I decided to discipline myself. Obviously, I did not like people to hit me in the face, that’s why I practiced Jui-Jitsu a lot,” Andres says, “but it is part of the game.”
At the age of 22, Andres learned new martial arts techniques from his friend Mardy Perez. Mardy encouraged him to get a membership in Champion Fitness gym where they teach the fighting technique of previous UFC world champion Pat Miletich, Miletich Fighting System. There, Andres trained for years learning little by little from the best in this sport, Spencer Fisher, who now has his own training camp called Evolution. Andres just trained he did not have any plans of becoming a fighter. But it all changed one day at the fights he recognized that his level of training was even better than some of those who were fighting out there.
“Nowadays, when I fight I do it with a discipline and a lot of training. Before it was just a hobby, but now I train on a different level,” he explained.
The returns with Mardy Perez and in his first fight he won by submission. Now he trains at F1Gym in Moline and since then those who are familiar with the sport noticed that he has a good technique. Even his next opponent Clint Anderson, who is a amateur champion in weights of 170 pound, recognized that Andres has a talent when he saw Andres win a fight with Diego Rodriguez in July of 2009.
Andres’ goal is to lower his weight to 155 pounds, but now he has an opportunity to win a title at 170 pounds, since Clint Anderson indicated to his promoter that he wanted to fight against Andres.
“I got excited and I told him we should do it,” Andres said.
Even though he is just looking for local title for now, he plans to train young people so they can have an opportunity to become world champions and also he dreams to promote this sport among Latinos. He recommends to young people to “train hard and do not feel frustrated when going to a practice and getting submitted all the time, because this is how you learn,” he said, “if you are good at fighting then everything is much easier for you.”
For now he is preparing to use his own advice and abilities to face Clint Anderson on January 22 for “Soldiers of Fortune II” at Danceland, 501 West 4th St. Davenport. The doors open at 6 pm and the fights start art 7pm. To get tickets please call 563-505-1013. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

HOW I LOST TO MONEY DOUBLING – Part 2.
As it happened, at the beginning of the year, I was looking for N10, 000. I had already made up my mind to save it up. There’s no harm in that. I looked at how easy or hard it’d be but since in the long run, it would be beneficial to me, why not go ahead. So, I started saving.
Unfortunately for me, while scrolling through Instagram on the 2nd of January, I came across this sponsored post. I must tell you that the ad looked vivid and quite captivating. It was a financial ad. It was caption for students and stay at home mothers who wanted to make extra earnings. I clicked on the link and behold, I joined a group on WhatsApp.
After joining the group, we, first-timers were welcomed on board by the admin/manager. She then began to explain the whole process to us. You pay N2, 500 to someone in the group. Then, you get paid N5, 000 in 24 hours. How? Somebody else will pay you. It was that simple. In my mind, I had calculated that by the end of 10 days maximum, I’d have my N10, 000. At least, when my N2, 500 gets returned, the other N2, 500 I earn would be used to get me. Mine would be the initial risk. What could be better than that?
When the first Ponzi scheme, MMM, started, I remember I was so against it. Turns out some people benefitted more from it than I did from my non-Ponzi scheme.
And so, I paid. 24 hours, you say? No problem, I’d wait. Since, a few other people were sharing their testimonies, I was excited and hopeful. I had begun planning how to spend the money.
24 hours later. No alert. I gave it time that the day was too early. By evening, nothing. I messaged the admin. She said not to worry that it was a lapse and she’d pair me with someone else. I said ok. The 3rd day, nothing. The fourth day, nothing. The fifth day, I couldn’t take it again. I started to realize then that it was just a set of five people who always received alerts, others were complaining too. I then messaged the admin that at least I could get my initial and own N2, 500 back. Wahala, admin refuse to respond. I went to the group to complain.
Not too long, I was removed from the group. It felt like Indian movie. I could not cry or shout. Admin did not pick call again. I then realized that I had been SCAMMED.
It feels easy to talk about now. I know how I could have spent the N2, 500 on my head and enjoyed myself. I’d literally jaiye o ri mi (eat the life of my head- direct transfer).
I came across the link again and decided to share my story, I joined the group.
Lo and behold, it is now N5, 000 and you get N20, 000 in 4 days. Laughs.
I believed I was scammed by some Igbo men. No tribal prejudice but it’s true. Salute to my brothers.
Tell me what you feel in the comment section. Did I really not look out? Was I not careful enough?

A few months ago I wrote that Donald Trump was probably going to withdraw before the Iowa caucuses rather than face the embarrassment of defeat. Wrong. He did lose Iowa, seemed momentarily humbled, but then quickly reverted to form by asserting that he really won. He went on to a landslide victory in New Hampshire and now leads in South Carolina.
While much of the political world speculates that Trump may be creating a new kind of candidacy largely immune to normal attacks, let me make another assertion (that may prove as wrong as the previous): Donald Trump should be easy to defeat. What makes him not a “normal” candidate actually makes him more vulnerable rather than stronger. Let me explain.
In a Republican primary, Trump lacks both an ideological or geographic base. For all the focus on his bigoted remarks about Mexicans and Muslims, Trump has won self-identified moderate voters in both Iowa and New Hampshire. In Iowa, he lost conservatives and very conservatives but won them in NH (in a landslide victory like he had in NH, it’s hard to win everything.) In a party that is increasingly dominated by the South and Sunbelt, Trump lives on Fifth Avenue. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

In this post we take a look at why you’re still frustrated by injury, pain and muscle tightness despite doing all the right things.
The inspiration for this post came from a conversation I had last week with a prospective client.
Perhaps you can relate.
She was diligently doing all her exercises.
Stretching everything she was told to stretch.
Foam rolling the areas she couldn’t stretch.
And sticking spiky balls where the foam roller wouldn’t reach.
Yet she felt like she was constantly injured and in pain.
She told me just playing a round of golf, which was her passion, would finish her off for the rest of the day.
Why you’re frustrated by injury, pain and muscle tightness
Here’s the simple truth, if you feel like this then you are not doing the right things.
In fact I would go so far as saying the worse you feel, the further away from doing the right things you are.
This might be difficult to hear. Especially since you’ve probably invested a large amount of time and money trying to find out what you should be doing to feel better.
The proof this hasn’t worked is in your lived experience however.
Every time you bend over to pick something up and you feel your back is about to spasm.
Your inability to play with your kids because you’re concerned about your knee flaring up.
The difficulty you have sleeping because you can’t lay on either shoulder.
It’s all there. Your body is sending you very clear messages that what you’re doing is wrong for it.
The feel good equation
Everybody I see who’s in this situation has the following equation weighted in the wrong direction.
How you feel = the stuff you’re doing right – the stuff you’re doing wrong.
My job is to rebalance that equation.
Sounds simple right?
In many ways it is. The more challenging aspect is that some things which should be good for you, can actually be bad for you if they’re applied in the wrong way.
Exercise is top of that list.
Exercise can make you feel worse
Done well exercise can be life changing. Too much can have a detrimental effect however.
The biggest issue facing our society today is that most people don’t do enough of it. Most of the messaging therefore is aimed at encouraging people to do more.
If you’re reading this then that probably doesn’t apply to you. You represent a small percentage of the population who actually enjoys exercise and the benefits it brings to your life.
In fact you love it so much you’re a little depressed you can no longer exercise as you would like. You’re also a bit confused, how can something that’s supposed to be good for you make you feel this bad?
I get it.
Broccoli is good for us though right?
Eat too much of it and you’ll go off like a pricked party balloon however.
The dose is key.
How to rebalance the feel good equation
First recognise what’s making you feel worse.
Don’t worry if these things should be good for you, assess whether this is your experience.
Does running always make your knee sore for example?
When you stretch does your back feel worse afterwards?
Does squatting in the gym hurt your hip?
When you have a list think what you can do to alter these activities.
Try running a little less, or spacing your runs further apart for example. Don’t use that particular stretch, or don’t go as deep in the squat.
Next take a look at your exercise programme and in particular what you’re doing in the gym.
Simplify your routine and focus on single joint exercises where possible.
To train your legs for example, work on the muscles that bend and extend your knee with a leg curl and a leg extension machine.
Train the muscles of your lower legs with calf raises.
By isolating these areas and training them with care and attention you’ll quickly highlight problem areas.
And it’s these weaknesses that are most likely contributing to you feeling worse after exercise rather than better.
If you’re in pain or discomfort and frustrated by the fact your can’t do the things you enjoy in life, there are steps you can take to change this situation.
Simply carrying on with your current approach is unlikely to work.
Take a pragmatic look at your present routine and in particular your exercise programme. I’d be surprised if there aren’t changes you can make to help you feel better. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
I’ve been carrying the weight of a decision that has deeply affected me. I chose to have an abortion, and while I believe it was the right decision at the time, I still feel a profound sense of sorrow. There are days when I wonder what might have been, and it’s hard to put into words the mixture of emotions—grief, guilt, and relief—that I’ve felt.
I’m sorry if this choice has hurt or disappointed anyone, but most of all, I feel the need to express my sorrow . . . This has been a journey of trying to reconcile my feelings and understand myself better. I am working through this experience and trying to heal, but the pain is still there, and I just wanted to acknowledge that.
This letter should be deeply personal and reflect your own feelings. There’s no right or wrong way to express sorrow, and it’s important to give yourself permission to feel whatever emotions come up. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
In case you haven’t noticed, Oscar Isaac and Jessica Chastain have hit the promo trail for their forthcoming limited series Scenes From A Marriage, which debuted this weekend at the Venice Film Festival.
Said promo included them basically parading around Venice looking breathtakingly gorgeous and doe-eyed, which clearly has resonated with all of the Film Girls, Gays and Theys who now all basically think Oscar and Jess are In Love.
(This being, of course, the entire point of the series they’re in together but let’s not ruin everyone’s good time just yet).
Across Twitter and your socials this weekend, you may have seen one video in particular; an almost excruciatingly slow slow-mo video that shows the two stars attending the red carpet for the Scenes From A Marriage premiere.
It is – and don’t take this the wrong way – the most homoerotic display of heterosexuality we have ever seen.
That arm kiss! Jessica Chastain has this man under a *spell* and she is aware of it at all times. In awe of her power. Emmy when, please?
We also have to point out that both Oscar and Jess are happily married to other people – he to Danish filmmaker Elvira Lind and she to actual Italian count Gian Luca Passi de Preposulo – but can’t hot people be friends with hot people anymore?
Scenes From A Marriage takes this very virulent brand of sexual chemistry and transfers it to the small screen. An adaption of the 1973 Ingmar Bergman series of the same name, will follow the disintegration of the marriage between Jonathan (Isaac) and Mira (Chastain). Following its premiere at Venice, it will debut on HBO Max stateside on 12 September.
They’ve also starred together before, in A Most Violent Year but we don’t talk about that, mainly because it was so good and flew so under the radar it still kind of hurts.
This is not the first time we’ve seen this happen, though. It’s the same trick that Lady Gaga and Bradley Cooper played on the A Star Is Born press trip so well, that two people have chemistry so intense and natural, everyone around them suddenly forgets that they are two classically-trained actors whose literal job it is to emote. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

Just last year we told you about Ludo, the Maine Coon from the UK who currently holds the Guinness World Record for Longest Domestic Cat. Ludo may soon lose his title to another Maine Coon, though. Omar, a colossal cat from Melbourne, Australia looks poised to take the crown. He was recently measured by his owner, Stephy Hirst, at an incredible 120cm – that’s nearly 4 feet of cat!
You may already be familiar with his fuzzy face – with over 8 million followers, he’s quite the hit on Instagram!
By the time Omar was a year old he already weighed 22 lbs. Now, at the age of three, he tips the scale at about 30 lbs. That’s a big boy!
Wondering what Stephy is feeding Omar to achieve that kind of growth? The secret seems to be the unusual diet of two scoops kibble for breakfast and raw kangaroo for dinner!
Omar has yet to be measured officially for Guinness, but we wish him luck! Watch out Ludo – Omar may be the new King Kong Cat!

Compensation meant to provide the aggrieved party with an equivalent or with the substitution of good which is equal in value which is necessary to restore an injured party to his former position. “It can be in form of an act where a court orders to be done, or money which a court or other tribunal orders to be paid, by a person whose acts or omissions have caused loss or injury to another, in order that thereby the person damnified may receive equal value for his loss, or be made whole in respect of his injury. In developing Compensatory Jurisprudence in India, the law offices/committees such as the Law Commission and Committees on Reforms of Criminal Justice have played a great part by presenting their reports after due discussions and studies made on these crucial aspects of the law. Plenty of reports have been submitted on the Indian Penal Code of 1860 and the Code of Criminal Procedure of 1898 and 1973 by The Law Commission of India in its hitherto and has deliberated on the topic of victim justice and made several recommendations for change.”
The paper has tried to cover every angle of the topic, from its genesis to its evolution. Also, in the analysis chapter of the paper, the audience will find that the author has even mentioned the law commission’s reports which are presented in different years, such as-156th Report Of Law Commission, 1997, 226th Law Commission Report, also, mentioned the important cases which are the precedents to this compensatory jurisprudence, the cases such as Rudal Shah v. State Of Bihar, Bodhisattwa Gautam v. Sublhra Chakraborty, etc. have been analysed in the paper. Further mentioned the acts which were enacted in the past as a gesture to compensate the section of society. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
Are Dental Assistants in High Demand?
When you are choosing a new career, you want to choose one that’s in high demand with a good job outlook. If that career comes with an interesting day to day routine, a quick training period, and an affordable investment in your education, it makes things even better. The great news for those looking to enter the field-dental assistants are currently in high demand and the outlook for the future is excellent.
What Do Dental Assistants Do?
Many dental assistants begin their career as a chair-side assistant or a sterilization technician. Dental assistants have a variety of tasks, including preparing the dental rooms, stocking supplies, preparing charts, taking X-rays, and scheduling patient appointments. They’ll clear patient mouths using suction and handle all the equipment and materials so they are ready for the dentist. A dental assistant will usually greet the patients, ensure their comfort, and be the right hand for the dentist during procedures. Unlike hygienists, they are not responsible for examining patients, cleaning teeth, or providing dental care.
What is the Job Outlook as a Dental Assistant?
Healthcare as a whole has a great job outlook. Dental assisting, as a career, is projected to grow 11 percent over the next ten years, which is faster than the average for career growth in other fields. About 44,000 openings for dental assistants are projected each year. Those openings will come from growth in the industry as the population ages and keeps more of their original teeth than previous generations. In addition, more and more adults are accepting the link between dental health and overall health, and are seeking preventative care rather than just going to the dentist when they have a problem. Advancements in dental technology can offer more ways to improve cosmetic issues than ever before. This increased demand for dental care means a greater need for dental assistants.
The median annual pay in 2021 was $38,660, with dental assistants able to work a regular schedule and maintain an excellent work/life balance. Dental and medical assistants have a similar salary and job outlook, with dental assistants coming in at a slightly higher salary, but the advantage to working as a dental assistant are more regular hours and a work environment focused on dental care.
How Do You Become a Dental Assistant?
Dental assistant training will vary slightly from school to school and how the programs are structured. Some programs can be completed in as little as 12 weeks and are very affordable. Many training programs have flexible scheduling to allow those who are working full time to attend classes.
During the training program, you will have classes as well as labs to develop clinical skills, and will learn everything you need to know to work as a dental assistant. Classes and clinics include dental anatomy and physiology, dental charting, sterilization and infection control, dental X-ray techniques, instrumentation, dental materials, and clinical procedures. The curriculum will be comprehensive enough to prepare you for any skill you will need in your work as a dental assistant. After you have completed the training program and externship, job placement assistance is available. Dental assisting school graduates will benefit from the relationships of the program to the local dental community and many dental assistant graduates will receive immediate job offers after their training is complete.
Because dental assistants are in high demand with a great job outlook, dental practices are looking for new assistants who have completed dental assistant training programs and are ready to start a new career.

Wellington, September 15,2023
The premise of the ASB Great Debate that played out in Queenstown on Thursday was meant to be about why each of the four top-polling political parties thought it was the best suited to lead New Zealand and manage its economy.
With Labour’s Grant Robertson taking the floor first, there was an inevitability about hearing him making the case for Labour with the same seamless presentation delivered in the baritone voice that New Zealanders have grown used to.
“Over the past few years,” Robertson reminded one and all, “New Zealand had faced many new challenges, with the pandemic, the spike in inflation and the cost-of-living pressures that households faced.”
But the Ardern gospel of “we’ve got through by working together, by looking after each other,” appears to be wearing thin as the general election looms.
The fall-back positions came out pat: The economy is 7% bigger than it was before Covid, unemployment at 3.6%, public debt that’s among the lowest in the developed world, an economy that can create high-paying jobs that have low emissions and that keep New Zealanders here for the long term. Labour will get the balance right, everything it does will be fully costed.
National’s finance spokesperson Nicola Willis rushed in with her familiar battle-cry: “Labour has mismanaged our economy. And it is hurting New Zealanders. Inflation remains out of control. We are entering the third year of a cost-of-living crisis. Interest rates have more than doubled in just two years, meaning mortgages have become unaffordable for too many. Our current account deficit is the worst in the world, with forecasts for growth worse than other countries with Treasury confirming we’re flat-lining. National will stop wasteful spending, put the books in order.”
Semantics trumped figures, with pronouncements masquerading as policy during the debate.
Sample: “For the last six years, government has been doing less and less with more and more, while household and businesses are forced to do more with less…” (ACT’s David Seymour).
Seymour painted a faintly apocalyptic picture of a New Zealand gradually declining in living standards and becoming “a kind of middle-income country that’s nice to visit but not reaching the potential of a First World country, an island paradise that we all aspire to.”
Predictably, James Shaw of the Green Party came up with his own cache of catch phrases: “The climate crisis actually represents the single greatest opportunity in at least a generation for us to build a highly productive, clean-tech, high-value economy that works for everyone.”
The Greens are ringfenced by their own sloganeering.
Robertson took a swipe at the “professors of hindsight economics” who downplayed the role of Covid. But Labour is desperately fanning memories of the pandemic and the cyclone when the public have moved on. A month out from the election, Covid and adverse weather events have little voter appeal.
Robertson’s attempt to prop up Labour’s case by reminding the nation about Covid and coupling that with a message of austerity and belt-tightening by households was a clear poll damper.
That’s not to say National came across as a cheery alternative with all the answers in its pocket.
Instead of cold numbers, Willis turned up the heat: “New Zealanders are getting to keep more of their own money because they are sick of the way you spend it.” When pressed for figures, Willis was less than forthcoming: “We have been clear that we don’t think it’s okay that spending has increased 80% under Labour, but New Zealanders have not seen an 80% improvement in results in just about any area except perhaps the number of ram raids occurring.”
That jibe was the closest the debate got to discussing the hot-button issue of retail crime.
Throughout, Labour and National shadow-boxed around the pivotal issues that drive this election.
Robertson ducked a query on his abortive GST policy, while Willis found herself struggling to explain how taxing foreign buyers of high-end properties in New Zealand would pay for National’s tax plan.
“Show us the details,” Robertson bellowed.
ACT’s Seymour hedged when asked if National’s tax plan was credible. It was Grant’s job to bash National, he said.
The Great Debate came up short on numbers, leaving New Zealanders none the wiser.

New Delhi– Social networking giant Facebook is donating $250,000 (nearly Rs 1.75 crore) for relief work in Kerala, which has been battered by torrential rains, floods and landslides, leaving over 300 dead amid massive destruction, the company said on Monday.
Facebook will donate the money through the Community Resilience Fund for GOONJ — a Delhi-based non-profit organisation that is leading the relief and recovery efforts in the impacted localities.
“In the last few days, Facebook along with the power of the community, has helped reach out to people through features such as Live, creating Page, joining community and raising funds,” a Facebook spokesperson told IANS.
“The smallest of all things we have done is that our global community has contributed $250,000 for Goonj fund,” she added.
Kerala has seen unabated rains since August 8, causing one of the worst floods in its history that has until now claimed over 300 lives and rendered thousands homeless.
People across Facebook have created “Groups”, “Live Videos” and “Pages” to raise funds to mobilise support and help the worst affected.
The groups created include those facilitating communication and relief to victims, such as coordinating transportation and medical attention; IT professionals gathering information about people who need to be rescued and sharing it with emergency officials and doctors who are offering medical tips to those affected by the floods.
On August 9, the Facebook community activated its feature “Safety Check”, allowing people to let their friends and family know that they were safe.
The “Help and the Crisis Donate Button” on the platform has garnered more than 1,300 posts from the affected areas. The posts were asking for help and also for offering things like shelter, food, water, transportation and volunteer work.
So far, nearly 500 people have donated using the Crisis Donate Button.
Importantly, several people who were left stranded used Facebook Live to ask for rescue after being unable to reach authorities.
More than 1,200 people have used Facebook’s “Community Help” to ask for and request help, including food, water, transportation and shelter.
The disaster maps on Facebook have helped National Disaster Management Authority (NDMA) and relevant NGOs to mobilise rescue and support efforts.
These Maps track people’s movement and demarcate between the affected (flood-hit) and safe zones. This has also helped the government to identify places, where rescue and relief is required.
“Facebook is the largest community of volunteers, donors, and activists coming together to make the world a better place. We will continue to monitor and assess needs in the region. Together, the Facebook community is championing humanity and helping those in distress,” the networking giant said in a statement. (IANS) | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
Poker is a game that puts your analytical and mathematical skills to the test. It also puts your social skills to the test and forces you to make decisions with limited information. It also teaches you to manage risk, and this skill can be beneficial in other areas of your life. Whether you are playing in a poker tournament with friends or trying to make your way to the world’s top poker players, there are many lessons to be learned from this game.
A major skill in poker is knowing when to raise or fold. You can have the best hand, but if you don’t play it correctly, you’ll lose. Fortunately, you can improve your chances of winning by learning to read your opponents’ tells. This skill can help you understand their emotions, which can affect your own decision making.
There are various ways to learn poker, but coaching from experienced players is the most efficient. You’ll get structured courses and have access to up-to-date information that will help you master the game faster. It’s also an opportunity to discuss the game with other experienced players and exchange ideas.
You can also take advantage of online resources that teach the fundamentals of poker. These sites will help you master the game by explaining the basics and offering a variety of practice games. These games will help you build your foundations, so you can develop an effective strategy.
Another great resource is The One Percent, a book that explores balance, frequencies and ranges in a way that’s highly illuminating. While this book is not for beginners, it will give you a solid understanding of the game’s math and how to apply it.
Poker is a game of chance, but you can also increase your chances of winning by developing your own strategy. You can do this by studying other players’ plays and analyzing their results. Learn from their mistakes and implement their successful moves into your own game.
It’s important to remember that poker is a game of chance, so you should always consider the risk involved before betting more than you can afford to lose. This will help you avoid losing more money than you can handle and prevent you from becoming too frustrated with the game. It’s also a good idea to always set limits on how much you can spend before starting a game. This will keep you from over-betting and potentially going broke. In addition, it’s a good idea to set goals for yourself and track your progress to see if you are improving. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
ISO 3093:2004 describes the determination of the alpha-amylase activity of cereals by the Falling Number method according to Hagberg-Perten.
This method is applicable to cereal grains, in particular to wheat and rye and their respective flours, durum wheat and its semolina. For the purposes of ISO 3093:2004, the term "flour" includes semolina and ground grain (wholemeal), the particle sizes of which are defined.
This method is not applicable for the determination of low levels of alpha-amylase activity, which can be carried out in accordance with ISO 7973.
By converting the Falling Number into a Liquefaction Number (LN), it is possible to use this method to estimate the composition of mixtures of grain, flour or semolina with known Falling Number values necessary to produce a sample of a required Falling Number. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

Lessons learned from the COVID pandemic
Coronavirus (COVID-19) Special Episode https://inglespodcast.com/304
- We’ve become more aware of germs and how they spread.
We wash our hands more, wear masks and use hand gel. (I haven’t caught a cold for a while!) - Remote health calls have taken the pressure off GPs.
- Hospital nurses and health care workers are appreciated more.
- Lower carbon emissions. Nature flourishing.
- (Online) Community and technology are perhaps more important than we had previously thought.
- We’re not always in control of our lives. It’s good to be reminded.
- It’s important to focus on a healthy work-life balance. – More hobbies, outdoor activities and time with loved-ones.
- More discerning about information sources. There’s a lot of fake news out there. The COVID pandemic has made us more aware that if one group says exactly the opposite of what another group says is the truth, they can’t both be right.
- Increased awareness that we aren’t informed about everything. Though conspiracy theories can be dangerously misleading, there’s a lot of information that is deliberately withheld. The lack of certainties about COVID 19 has helped people understand this. About two years after the pandemic started nobody knows for sure, in this globally connected world, where and how it started? Hard to believe that NOBODY knows.
- Change and adapting to new norms can be difficult, but it always presents opportunities.
Have we forgotten any positive things from the COVID-19 pandemic? If something good has happened to you because of the global lockdown, we’d love to hear about it so that we can spread some good news – and so that you can practise your English!

Kennedy’s Bitcoin Plan: A New Era for U.S. Economy?
Robert F. Kennedy Jr., an independent presidential candidate, has unveiled a groundbreaking plan to integrate Bitcoin into the U.S. economy if elected President. Imagine a future where Bitcoin transactions are non-taxable, and the U.S. holds a dominant position in the global economy with a massive Bitcoin reserve. In this article, you’ll discover Kennedy’s detailed proposals, including daily Bitcoin purchases and backing U.S. Treasury securities with Bitcoin. Could this be the dawn of a new financial era?
Introduction to Kennedy’s Bitcoin Plan
Kennedy’s proposal, presented during his speech at the Bitcoin 2024 event on July 26, outlines a comprehensive strategy to incorporate Bitcoin into the U.S. economic framework. This plan includes several executive orders he intends to sign if elected president, aiming to position the United States as a leader in the global cryptocurrency landscape.
The Strategic Transfer of Bitcoins to the Federal Reserve
One of the primary elements of Kennedy’s plan involves transferring 204,000 Bitcoins currently held by the United States to the Federal Reserve as a “strategic asset.” This move is designed to leverage the value of Bitcoin to strengthen the U.S. dollar and enhance the nation’s financial stability. By integrating Bitcoins blockchain technology with traditional financial systems, Kennedy aims to create a more resilient and innovative economic structure.
Daily Bitcoin Purchases: A Bold Move
Kennedy proposes ordering the Treasury Department to purchase 500 Bitcoins daily until the reserve reaches at least 4 million BTC. This ambitious plan would significantly increase the U.S.’s Bitcoin holdings, positioning the country as a dominant player in the global cryptocurrency market. The daily acquisition of investment tokens is intended to bolster the nation’s financial reserves and provide a hedge against economic volatility.
BREAKING: 🇺🇸 US Presidential candidate Robert Kennedy F. Jr. says he will sign an executive order for the US to buy 550 Bitcoins a day until they build a reserve of 4 million BTC if elected president.
Tax Policy Changes for Cryptocurrency
A critical aspect of Kennedy’s plan is the proposed changes to tax policies regarding cryptocurrency transactions. He promises to make transactions between Bitcoin and the dollar non-reportable and non-taxable by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS). This policy aims to encourage the use of Bitcoin in everyday transactions and reduce the regulatory burden on cryptocurrency users.
Furthermore, Kennedy suggests treating Bitcoin as eligible for exchange into real property under the 1031 Exchange program, which currently provides incentives for real estate investment. These changes in cryptocurrency regulations are expected to stimulate economic activity and attract more investors to the cryptocurrency market.
Backing U.S. Treasury Securities with Bitcoin
Kennedy’s plan includes backing U.S. Treasury securities with hard assets, including precious metals and Bitcoin. By incorporating cryptocurrency the future of financial assets into the U.S. Treasury, Kennedy believes these measures would strengthen the dollar, control inflation, and usher in a new era of financial stability. This approach aims to combine the stability of traditional assets with the innovative potential of cryptocurrencies.
Potential Impact on the U.S. Economy
Kennedy argues that his Bitcoin plan could restore the U.S. economy to its pre-Vietnam War condition, emphasizing transactional freedom and financial independence. He claims that a global Bitcoin standard could potentially prevent wars by eliminating the ability to print currency to fund conflicts. By integrating cryptocurrency in the us, Kennedy envisions a future where economic policies are more transparent and less susceptible to manipulation.
Other aspects of Kennedy’s plan include hiring Space Force Major Jason Lowery as a national security adviser. Lowery’s expertise in cybersecurity and blockchain technology is expected to enhance the security and integrity of the nation’s financial systems.
Summary: A New Financial Era?
Kennedy’s strategic economic plan for Bitcoin represents a bold vision for the future of the U.S. economy. By integrating Bitcoin into the nation’s financial framework, Kennedy aims to create a more robust and innovative economic structure. His proposals, including daily Bitcoin purchases, tax policy changes, and backing U.S. Treasury securities with Bitcoin, are designed to strengthen the dollar, control inflation, and promote financial stability.
As the world watches, Kennedy’s Bitcoin plan could indeed mark the dawn of a new financial era, positioning the United States at the forefront of the global cryptocurrency landscape. Whether this vision becomes a reality will depend on the outcome of the upcoming presidential election and the subsequent implementation of these ambitious proposals.

“Hindsight is always 20-20 in these situations,’ said Dr, David Wooley, Alma superintendent. “I was unaware that this was even a topic of concern until someone called me at 2 p.m on Sunday and reported the posts on your social media site. At that time is when we posted our reply on the district site.”
The superintendent of the Alma School district addressed a series of questions on Monday after reports of an alleged “incident” in which a perceived threat that occurred last Thursday involving a high school student turned into a social media firestorm over the weekend.
Concerned parents had reached out to Inside Fort Smith late Saturday night after Facebook posts appeared saying a high school student had brought a gun to a classroom, that threats were made and that the school had filed to notify patrons in the district of the situation. In an effort to address those concerns a short “teaser” was posted on IFS saying we would contact the district on Monday.
That elicited responses and commentary that numbered into the hundreds within a few hours. Within fifteen minutes of the district posting their response on Sunday afternoon, IFS posted their explanation.
An email to the school district about the situation elicited phone call from superintendent Wooley on Monday morning.
“In regards to your question as to if there was ever a gun in a classroom — or even on campus for that matter — during the incident the answer is no, no, no and no,” said Wooley. “I hesitate to even call it an incident. It was a situation where a student made some inappropriate remarks during free time in a classroom during late afternoon period.”
Because of restrictions on what can be said about the student, Wooley said he was limited in the information he could provide.
“There was a small group of students talking during free time and the discussion turned to “911 and the World Trade Center” at which time one student made inappropriate comments about what he would do to the school” according to Wooley. “Some of the other students reported what he said to school personnel and the situation was dealt with immediately.”
“There was no gun, there was no ammo and there was no weapon that fell out of a backpack,” said Wooley. “It was just the conversation. I’m not saying the conversation wasn’t ill advised or inappropriate, but we dealt with it on the spot.”
Police were not called and the school district resource officer, who just happened to be on campus at the time, was called into the office to take part in the subsequent discussion.
“There was no need to ‘call’ the police because there was no threat to the safety of our students,” said Wooley. “Parents were not notified because there was nothing to notify them about. If we sent out text message every time there was an inappropriate conversation on campus we would be out of the education business and be in the email business.”
Wooley said had the incident risen to the level of danger to the safety of students or staff a team decision would have been made about whether notification to parents was appropriate.
“For any parent, you and I included, our first concerns for our children are their safety, their health and maybe then their education, said Wooley. “We take all three of those things seriously as should any school. We have spent thousands of dollars on student safety and that is one of the major things I addressed with our teachers before the school year even started.”
“People are going to say we were ‘forced’ to put that notice up on the district website, but Thursday, Friday and Saturday-right up until someone pointed out the social media situation on Sunday — I never thought it was something that we needed to address publicly,” said Wooley.
Wooley said everyone may not agree with that decision, but once again, hindsight is always 20-20.
“We’re all still learning about social media and interactions and anytime something is posted, especially concerning children, there is an instant reaction,” said Wooley. “We are not covering up anything here. Had we felt like there was any danger to anyone at anytime we would have reacted accordingly.” | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
I have been in the market for a new gaming mouse for a while and I have come to rest on two options that I think are the best. But the one problem with the razer viper v2 pro is that I feel like it might be too low profile for me and I usually like having something to rest my palm on and the one problem with the razer deathadder v3 pro is that people say it is better for larger sizes hands and I have what razer considers to be medium hands so I don’t k ow if it will be a good size for me. Any help would be great thanks
Page 1 / 1
IMO for medium hands Viper V2 Pro will be better, despite DAv3 Pro is more universal (but also larger).

This chapter presents the design and development of WebDisC, a knowledge-based Web information system for the fusion of classifiers induced at geographically distributed databases. The main features of our system are: i) a declarative rule language for classifier selection that allows the combination of syntactically heterogeneous distributed classifiers, ii) a variety of standard methods for fusing the output of distributed classifiers, iii) a new approach for clustering classifiers in order to deal with the semantic heterogeneity of distributed classifiers, detect their interesting similarities and differences and enhance their fusion and iv) an architecture based on the Web services paradigm that utilizes the open and scalable standards of XML and SOAP. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
How the world is changing, and so quickly, too! I’m writing this in December and who knows what January is going to look like. I, for one, am weary of reactionism.
We know that making music is progressive. Learning the instrument, building muscle memory, and developing our “ears.” And then, using those skills, we create vibrations in the air that evoke emotions, enriching the lives of those who listen. Music flows like a river through the air—moving and changing, not always happy or pretty or predictable, reflecting life.
Taking what we’ve learned, we can choose notes, chords, and rhythms that work together to create melodies and harmonies. We can influence our audience to dance or to cry. It is a learned skill that comes with work, effort, and a plan. We train ourselves to react in some ways, listening to those around us to enhance the sound, and not allowing ourselves to be distracted by outside influences that could interrupt the flow. It takes discipline.
So, now is a time for great discipline. We need to trust what we know and not allow outside influences to distract us. We know that working together we have strength and can build. It’s a time for solidarity. So, let’s lean on our strengths and focus on our plan as defined in our mission statement, which you can find on the AFM website (afm.org) under the “About” section, by clicking on “Mission & Bylaws.” Use your voice meaningfully by being involved in your AFM local. Your knowledge and experience, blended with other member musicians, can help create or maintain a solid foundation for professional standards in your community.
I would be remiss not to take a moment and comment on the rise of women and women’s issues over the last year—pointed conversations, actions, and publicity unlike anything I can remember. How does all of this relate to musicians and our union? It’s been a work in progress for a long time and there have been successes. The drastic changes in our orchestras due to “blind” audition requirements that were negotiated into collective bargaining agreements are a testament to a thoughtful process. As proof, compare pictures of orchestras in the 1950s and 1960s with those of today.
The freelance world is more complicated. Generally, there is no collective bargaining process to provide influence. “Purchasers” of freelance music are less likely to consider the gender make up of the band they engage. Female band leaders can still run into discrimination. It’s very difficult to prove, much less change whether a band is hired or not. We can be part of the conversations to drive changes that will help erode old prejudices and open the door for more fairness and opportunity in musical work. Participation and developing consensus are keys to meaningful change.
Cultural changes such as what we are experiencing are very exciting. As we celebrate the new enlightenment empowering women, I suggest we also remain thoughtful so that the changes that come are the changes we want. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

To ensure a flawless user experience, fixing your iPhone also lets you keep the customized settings, preferences, and applications that you have painstakingly selected over time.
Environmental Aspects to Take into Account
Global concerns about electronic waste are rising, and part of ethical consumer behavior is choosing products that will leave as little of an environmental impact as possible. Restoring your iPhone instead of buying a new one helps preserve important resources and cut down on technological waste. Repairing your gadget will help it last longer, which means you’re supporting sustainability initiatives and a greener future.
Knowledge and High-Quality Repairs
Selecting expert iPhone repair services guarantees that competent experts with specific expertise in Apple goods will handle your device. These professionals can correctly diagnose and resolve the problem since they have the required expertise, experience, and access to authentic Apple components.

Your everyday routine may be disturbed and this procedure might take a long time. However, iPhone repairs usually take less time to complete, so you may resume using your well-known gadget with little interruption. One easy way to save time and avoid having to get used to a new gadget is to repair your iPhone.
There are several compelling reasons to fix your iPhone, such as time savings, environmental responsibility, financial savings, data protection, and repair skill.

Jones Lang LaSalle Americas, Inc. (“JLL”) is pleased to present the opportunity to acquire Serenova (the “Property”or “Site”), a ±17.69-acre development site located in Pasco County, Florida, a rapidly growing suburb of Tampa which has experienced 28.8% population growth over the past 10 years, characterized by an affluent resident base with an average household income of $113,298 within a one-mile radius. Ideally located off the Suncoast Parkway and State Road 52, the Site is within immediate proximity of Pasco County’s top retail and employment destinations and offers convenient access to Tampa’s Westshore Business District. The Site is strategically located just two miles from Angeline, a brand-new 6,200-acre mixed-use, master-planned community that will feature 7,500 single-family homes, up to 6M sq. ft. of commercial space, numerous parks and green space, and a crystal lagoon. Also within Angeline will be Speros FL, a transformative undertaking that will serve as the home to Moffitt Cancer Center’s Global Innovation Center, a 775-acre, 16M sq. ft. research campus that will have an estimated 14,000 employees by completion. With site plan approval in place for 238 multi-family units, the Site represents an opportunity for a developer to quickly break ground in order to take advantage of the unprecedented growth coming to the immediate area.
Institutional Quality Community with Site Plan Approval in Place
The Site possesses Master Planned Unit Development (MPUD) zoning, with an approved site plan which allows for 238 units across a combination of six four-story elevator-served buildings and one two-story townhome building with units averaging 1,311 sq. ft. along with an 8,070 sq. ft. clubhouse and resort-style pool. This allows a developer to deliver a project with meaningful scale in one of the nation’s most rapidly growing markets.
After nearly doubling its resident base since the start of the century, Pasco County has been focused on attracting employment to the area to shift from a commuter market to a destination where its residents can live, work, and play. These efforts have been exceedingly successful with a number of large-scale employers in healthcare, logistics, and financial services setting up shop in Pasco County. The most notable recent announcement is that of Moffitt Cancer Center, one of the nation’s premier cancer research institutions, which recently broke ground on Speros FL, a 775-acre research campus that will employ 14,000 people at full build-out. The Site stands to benefit from this massive project, owing to its location just minutes from the new campus.
Exceptional Apartment Fundamentals
West Pasco County’s multifamily market has witnessed an impressive 47% rent growth over the past five years (according to Axiometrics), placing it among the nation’s most robust growth markets. Rents are projected to grow by 5.8% on average over the next 5 years, reaching 29.3% by the end of 2028. Additionally, occupancy rates in Pasco County are projected to maintain in mid 90%’s, complementing the area’s remarkable historical rent growth.
Strategic and Convenient Location
The Property occupies an excellent location in close proximity to numerous “recession-proof” anchors that support constant demand, including hospitals, schools, and recreation. The Property is located just north of SR-52 and the Suncoast Parkway, and provides convenient access to Tampa to the south, Wesley Chapel to the east, and New Port Richey and the Gulf of Mexico to the west, all within a 20-minute drivetime. Additionally, the Site is less than 5 minutes from Publix, River Reserve, and Angeline, and approximately 30 minutes from both the Westshore Business District (102,0000 employees) and Downtown Tampa (71,000 employees), employment nodes that also offer a plethora of shopping and entertainment options along with the MSA’s finest dining options. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

An attachment for a standard vacuum cleaner consisting of a small, simple robotic ‘mouse’. The mouse is connected to the cleaner by a light flexible, smallbore hose.
It is capable of moving itself about randomly on a floor surface using only tiny battery-powered motors and its small size means that. it can reach into corners and under furniture. The suction is provided by the main vacuum cleaner which remains stationary.
Based on existing, low-cost robotic mouse toys, this device could be fitted with a timer and clean a small section of a floor each day without the owner’s intervention -and it can reach places the $300 Roomba fears to tread. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
Winner Badge of Mavenir
RICHARDSON, Texas, Nov. 27, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Mavenir, the cloud-native network infrastructure provider building the future of networks, has been recognised as a leader in AI, scooping the Advancing Artificial Intelligence Global Telecoms (Glotel) Award for its Network Intelligence as a Service (NIaaS). Applying state-of-art AI/ML to telco operations, Mavenir’s NIaaS elevates problem-solving and decision-making capabilities to improve the user experience.
Enhancing resource efficiency and reducing cost, NIaaS is an integral part of Mavenir’s market-leading portfolio of solutions enabling autonomous 5G networks. As network operations become increasingly complex, the capability of autonomous networks has become crucial. Until 4G, telco service provision primarily catered to services accessed by people, with operational processes built around human behaviour. For 5G and beyond, networks are required to deliver services to a fast-growing array of non-human devices with varying requirements in terms of bandwidth, latency, and usage patterns.
Telco operations to support such a heterogeneous set of services are set to grow progressively more complex, requiring autonomous networks. Mavenir’s solutions for autonomous network leverage leading open-source frameworks – spanning K8s/container cloud, GitOps-based cloud-native automation, and state-of-the-art AI/ML algorithms – and optimize them for the unique needs of communication service providers (CSPs). The result is the delivery of cutting-edge innovation at lightning speed and with unprecedented agility.
In commercial service, Mavenir’s NIaaS has elevated problem-solving and decision-making capabilities of operational personnel, enabling them to improve network operations productivity, enforce service level agreements, enhance end-user experience, and utilize network resources more efficiently. The NIaaS provides a visualization layer displaying the inferencing of output of the ML model in a user-friendly manner, enabling telco operations personnel who do not have a background in data science to easily understand the output of the ML models. NIaaS creates a digital twin of the operational network, using generative AI models, to derisk closed-loop operations. The digital twin serves as a live test tool to evaluate optimization actions suggested by NIaaS, before implementing them on the live network.
“Our commitment to building the best AI solutions for telco operations is second to none,” said Brandon Larson, SVP and GM of Mavenir’s Cloud, AI & IMS Business Strategy. “The future of the telecom industry lies with autonomous networks, and CSPs need to rapidly adopt AI in their operations to remain relevant. Mavenir’s NIaaS applies state-of-art AI in telecom operations to build the future of networks – today, enabling CSPs to offer advanced services and improved user experience to their consumers at a lower cost and realize enhanced operational efficiency.”

Has anyone out there got any words of wisdom when caring for a dog recovering from an operation for Bloat (GDV). We have just come back from holiday to find out that Bailey had to have an emergency operation. He is fine apart from trying to keep him from jumping up. As directed he is being fed 4 small meals a day and only 10 min gentle walks but as the op was almost a week ago and he has five days until the stitches are removed, he is becoming a bit of a handful (again)!
I suggest you use a crate, this would stop him from jumping up, but only 5 days until his stitches come out, so unless you already have one, a bit late now to get one. He is very young to have had Gastric Tortion, and I believe it can be stress related, perhaps a D.A.P collar would help if he has to be left again. Hope he makes a good recovery. I have experienced bloat in the past, and suggest feeding twice daily, and never later than 6.00pm in the evening, I expect he has had his stomach stitched to prevent it twisting again, but dogs can still bloat even after having surgery. Good luck with him, regards Linda.
Thanks Linda. We still have the crate which we are using and although with the his collar it is not easy for him to move but as you say we have only got until Friday. I have never heard of a DAP collar and will investigate. You are not the first to say he is very young to have had this and as we are not due to go away for a while, he will not be left until 2011. Thanks for the advice
Oh Shelley, so sorry to hear about Bailey, hope he recovers well and is back to his usual self soon. Where was he when this happened?? Was he in kennels? Its such a scary thing to happen and he is so young. Setters do love to jump up, we have tried for years to get Tilly not to but she still does at times Hope you are ok too! xx
Bailey is almost back to his normal self - half the problem. I hate kennels and none of my setters have ever been sent to them. Bailey went back to his breeder but unfortunately she was away for her own holiday when this happened.
Bailey is not normally a stressed dog and I have no idea what actually caused it (and probably never will) which makes so much more distressing for us. He is also so young for this to happen - only 13 months. Will also investigate a Telling Touch body wrap - many thanks
Bailey has had his stomach stiched and hopefully that will work. Bailey is our 4th setter and from the start we have always been so so careful not to feed and then exercise that I am at a loss as to why this happened, especially when we were away.
We changed Bailey's food about 2 months ago to something called Barking Heads which was recommended to us - we changed from Iams. At present he is still on tinned food from the vets to which I will gradually introduce his normal food later in the week which apparently from instructions I was given yesterday, I do have to soak. He was actually staying with the Breeder when this happened although she was on holiday at the time.
I have a dog who suffers from bloat. He developed the problem at 9 months and has now had two major operations to alleviate the problem the last being back in October last year. It appears younger dogs are now developing bloat more so than previously where it could be several years before any problem became evident.
Stress is a major factor and a strict food regime is also very important. He cannot eat any form of kibble. We still feed four meals a day. We are 50% through a partial diet change which seems to be working but this is being done over several weeks and we don't intend any further changes until he has by seen by the specialist again next month.
I'm told by the specialist that a gastropexy does cure the bloating problem in a significant number of cases although unfortunately in our case it hasn't. But at least this procedure does help prevent the stomach turning in a subsequent bloat episode and does help the owner's necessary "peace of mind" that Sue Humphrey mentioned previously.
Hi Shelley, hope Bailey is ok, just thought you might find this information of some help:www.globalspan.net/bloat.htm I have found the site quite useful, and always feed my dogs some raw minced meat with their dry food, which I never add any water too. Good Luck.
Thanks for the article which was very interesting. Only thing is that it says that the feeding bowls should not be elevated and we have been told that they should be! He is on 4 small meals a day and although he loves the food he wants more - I feel like I am starving him! | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
The echoes of laughter, the scent of adventure, and the spirit of exploration – these were the hallmarks of the inaugural ISPH Summer Camp 2023, aptly named “Your Self-Discovery Journey.” From July 17th to July 28th, the International School @ParkCity Hanoi (ISPH) opened its doors to a new chapter of learning, camaraderie, and personal growth.
