The tax definition of ‘assets’ is very wide ranging and covers many different items. If you make a gain on the disposal of an asset you may have to pay Capital Gains Tax on the gain. The current rate of Capital Gains Tax is 33%.
This article explains how Capital Gains Tax can arise on the disposal of properties and shares and the rules applying in the calculation of the gain or loss on a sale of an asset. Our Capital Gains Tax calculators will do the calculations for you.
There are a number of special exemptions available from Capital Gains Tax which we also explain. One of the most important is the exemption from CGT on the sale of your principal private residence. We explain in detail how this relief works here.
Before you can be liable for Capital Gains Tax you must Sell or Dispose of an Asset. The meaning of these words is very important for understanding how you can be liable for Capital Gains Tax and are briefly explained as follows:
Takes its ordinary meaning and generally means selling an asset for an agreed sum of money or in exchange for something else.
This has a wider meaning and includes giving assets away for no consideration e.g. gifts.
This covers a multitude of items and in respect of property includes options or contracts for property, which could be sold on without you ever acquiring the property involved.
You have to make a gain on the sale or deemed sale of an asset before you have to pay tax. There are special rules for determining whether or not a gain is made. We will explain these rules as regards the following situations:
The sale or gift of a property.
The sale of shares.
These are the most common areas where capital gains tax arises for most people.
If you make a loss on the sale of any asset that loss can be offset against any gain you have made in the same or future tax years on the sale/disposal of other assets. You need to report the loss to Revenue or else it could be disallowed.
The rules for calculating how a loss arises are much the same as for calculating if a gain arises with one major difference. When a loss arises you cannot create or increase your real loss by the relief for inflation, which applied up to 31 December 2002.
For married couples dealt with under joint assessment the losses of one spouse can be used to offset a gain of the other spouse.

Ben Affleck had ‘a great time’ playing Batman once again in The Flash
George Clooney wasn’t asked to return as Batman as he “destroy(ed) the franchise”.
Ben Affleck had “a great time” reprising his role as Batman in The Flash after having a “difficult” experience with Justice League.
The Argo actor/director stepped down from playing the Caped Crusader and his alter ego Bruce Wayne after 2017’s Justice League and recently reprised the role for the standalone film about Ezra Miller’s character The Flash.
Speaking to Variety at a screening of The Tender Bar, Affleck shared how Andy Muschietti’s project differed from Justice League.
“It was a really nice way to revisit that as the prior experience had been difficult,” he said. “This was really lovely. Really fun. I had a great time… I’m probably under some gag order that I’m not even aware that I probably just violated and I’m now going to be sued.”
He went on to gush over his Justice League co-stars Miller and Jason Momoa, who he managed to meet up with in England as they were both shooting films there.
“I love Ezra and I had a chance to see Jason, who’s over there making Aquaman (and the Lost Kingdom),” he added.
Affleck has never gone into detail about his experience on Justice League, although he told The Hollywood Reporter in January that wearing the batsuit to his son’s birthday party was “worth every moment of suffering” on the film. However, his co-star Ray Fisher accused director Joss Whedon of “gross, abusive, unprofessional, and completely unacceptable” behaviour on the set last year, while Gal Gadot has since claimed the filmmaker threatened her career.
Affleck isn’t the only actor reprising his role as Batman in The Flash – Michael Keaton, who played the superhero in 1989 and 1992, is also back for the universe-crossing film.
George Clooney, who played Batman in 1997’s Batman & Robin, stated to Variety at The Tender Bar screening that he wasn’t asked to return, joking, “When you destroy a franchise the way I did, usually they look the other way when The Flash comes by.”

Questions and Answers
Q: How does Bois Sikar smell?
A: Bois Sikar is a smoky fragrance that can be worn by people of either gender.

A variety of woods blend with spicy nutmeg to complete the warm, rich scent. It is a sophisticated, comforting aroma.
Q: Where do you apply Bois Sikar?
A: To increase the longevity of the fragrance, spray onto your major pulse points such as behind your ears, at the base of your neck, on the wrists, behind the knees, and in the inner elbows.
Q: What is the fragrance concentration?
A: Bois Sikar is an eau de parfum with a high fragrance concentration. By classification, EDPs have a concentration of fragrance oils between 15% and 30%. The rest of the product features a carrier, which is usually ethanol alcohol. The high fragrance concentration creates a stronger scent that lasts most of the day and rarely needs to be reapplied.

Dr. Jeff Kaye returns to our podcast to reveal documents showing US deployment of germ warfare–based on Japanese tactics from WWII–in the Korean War.As the Trump-Kim summit in Singapore nears, a top agenda item is a peace treaty to end the 70-year old Korean War. Repeated US claims that POW’s were subjected to sophisticated brainwashing may have been a coverup for American biowarfare, as a way of undermining confessions from American POW’s.
In 1952, in the early stages of the Korean War, North Korea accused the United States of using biological weapons — a claim the US has always denied. Journalist and retired psychologist Jeffrey Kaye found a copy of a report by the International Scientific Commission on the issue, originally released in 1952. Its investigation concluded that the US used a number of biological weapons, including anthrax, plague, and cholera, and that the confessions of many captured American airmen provided confirmation.
Those confessions were characterized by the US as the result of torture and brainwashing, which Kaye now believes were exaggerated to discredit the biowarfare claims. He describes the events of March 25, 1952, when a swarm of fleas — later found to be infected with bubonic plague — was dropped from aircraft on the North Korean village of Kang-Sou.
Jeffrey Kaye is a retired psychologist and the author of Coverup at Guantánamo: The NCIS Investigation into the “Suicides” of Mohammed Al Hanashi and Abdul Rahman Al Amri (publisher: Jeffrey S. Kaye, PhD, 2nd edition: September 10, 2016). He has written widely about torture, asylum, and many other issues related to the US military.

Consequences Of Filing:
Filing for bankruptcy often gives debtors the feeling of a fresh start. Chapter 7 (liquidation), wipes away your debt. Chapter 13 (the wage earners plan) gives you the ability to develop a 3-5 year plan to repay all your debt.
Depending on your case, bankruptcy stays on your credit report for 7-10 years. A chapter 7 case is on your report for ten years, and a chapter 13 case is there for seven years. However, a bankruptcy discharge could prevent you from obtaining new lines of credit.
If you are already considering bankruptcy, it’s likely that your credit score is already damaged. Your credit report may not endure that much more damage, especially if you remain consistent with paying your bills after declaring bankruptcy. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

Pickni Uniforms Introduces Free School Uniform Vouchers
At Pickni Uniforms, we are thrilled to announce our new initiative aimed at providing even greater support to students in need: free school uniform vouchers. We understand the importance of school uniforms in promoting a sense of belonging and equality among students. By offering these vouchers, we aim to empower schools and students alike, ensuring that every child has access to the uniforms they need. In this blog post, we will discuss how the voucher system works and what schools can expect from Pickni Uniforms in this exciting endeavour.
INTRODUCING FREE SCHOOL UNIFORM VOUCHERS
Our free school uniform vouchers are designed to provide a convenient and flexible way for schools and students to access uniforms. The vouchers can be redeemed at authorised uniform suppliers or designated distribution centers affiliated with Pickni Uniforms. This system allows schools to maintain their existing relationships with uniform suppliers while ensuring that students in need receive the necessary assistance.
COLLABORATION AND COMMUNICATION: WORKING HAND IN HAND
As with our existing initiatives, collaboration and communication are vital components of our voucher program. We believe in building strong relationships with school administrations, teachers, and stakeholders to ensure that the voucher distribution process is seamless and efficient. Through ongoing dialogue, we will work closely with schools to understand their specific uniform requirements and the number of students in need. Open lines of communication allow us to address any concerns or queries that may arise, ensuring a successful partnership.
ACCESSIBILITY AND TIMELINESS: ENSURING SMOOTH VOUCHER REDEMPTION
Accessibility and timeliness are key aspects of our voucher program. We are committed to ensuring that the vouchers are readily available when needed, enabling students to obtain their uniforms in a timely manner. We will work closely with schools to determine the most convenient method for voucher distribution, whether it be distributing physical vouchers or utilising digital platforms for easy redemption. Our aim is to provide a streamlined process that eliminates barriers and ensures every student can access their uniforms without delay.
QUALITY ASSURANCE AND AFFILIATED SUPPLIERS
Pickni Uniforms is dedicated to maintaining the quality and integrity of the school uniforms provided through our voucher program. We have established partnerships with reputable uniform suppliers who share our commitment to excellence. These affiliated suppliers have undergone a thorough vetting process to ensure that the uniforms they offer meet our stringent quality standards. Schools can trust that the uniforms redeemed through our vouchers will be of superior quality and durability.
ONGOING SUPPORT AND FLEXIBILITY
Our commitment to supporting schools and students goes beyond the initial voucher distribution. We understand that student needs may change over time, and new students may require uniform assistance. Pickni Uniforms remains dedicated to fostering long-term relationships with schools, offering ongoing support and flexibility. We will regularly assess the effectiveness of the voucher program and make adjustments as necessary to ensure that it continues to meet the evolving needs of students and schools.

I was observing a reasonable player practising a few points the other night and made an interesting observation. 90% of their serves were to the bad areas. It occurred to me that a lot of people can really improve their serving by following the simple advice of serving to the good areas. Make sure that you serve the ball either short, so that it bounces twice on the table if left untouched, or very long and fast preferably to the corners. We call these the good areas.
Pick your favourite serve and grab 10 balls. Now try serve all 10 balls and count how many you are able to make bounce twice on your opponents side of the table. The trick here is to still be able to generate lots of spin whilst keeping the ball short. I don't want you to compromise on spin to make the ball short. The key is to have a brushing contact. The brushing contact will mean you can still swing the bat fast but the momentum will go into generating spin and not towards making the ball travel fast.
Here's a table to show you how well you did.
Score | Comment |
0 | Don't bother practising anything else until you can improve upon this score. |
1 - 3 | You need some serious practice. Repeat this test every time you play. |
4 - 5 | More practice is required but you're on the way. |
6 - 8 | Pretty good result, you're control is developing nicely but keep practising. |
9 | Impressive! Try and work on varying the spin and speed of your serve while keeping this control. |
10 | You've got this completely under control. The next thing is to develop subtle variations of spin to confuse your opponent. |
Yes this really does matter! I realised that part of the problem is your opponent. If you are playing an average opponent, they might not be able to take full advantage of your serves to the bad zone. If you are able to generate some good variation of spin, the serves might still seem effective. But as soon as you step up a level and face an opponent who can attack all of these serves to the bad zone, you are going to seriously struggle. This is why it is important to start serving to the good areas right from the start. And even if your opponent doesn't take advantage of a serve to the bad zones, they will struggle even more with a serve to the good areas.
The great thing about serving to the good areas is it will improve your results against all opponents immediately. Your opponent simply cannot play a full length stroke against a short ball. Also, by serving short your opponent will need to step in to receive the ball and if their footwork is not great you already have them slightly out of position for your next stroke. It also makes your long serves much more effective because your opponent must also get ready for the short ball.
Next time you play, make it a focus to serve the ball short around 80% of the time. Make sure you make your opponent move in to receive these short serves. Try it out and let me know how it goes. It sounds like a small change but it will make a big difference.

Take a look as we explain how to make a serve like He Zhi Wen. This left handed player has great success with this serve. If you are a left hander this can be ideal for you but even if you are right handed you can adapt this serve to your needs.

With the recent release of the Defence Strategic Review by the Australian Federal Government, a major focus has been put on long range missiles for use by Army, Navy and Air Force to deter a potential adversary from approaching our island continent and/or blockading our ocean supply routes. With this in mind, we release an interview recorded at Avalon 2023 with John Fry, general manager of Kongsberg Defence Australia, covering their National Advanced Surface-to-Air Missile, their Naval Strike Missile, its Coastal Defence System variant, and the Joint Strike Missile for the F-35 Joint Strike Fighter.
Following Kongsberg, we present a discussion with Mark Robinson, head of Air Traffic Management at Frequentis Australasia. We cover their latest remote digital tower technology and its applications in civilian and military markets. It’s certainly a technology that could be of great use to Airservices here in Australia as well as to the RAAF’s 44WG who provide Air Traffic Control at military air fields and bases.
The two discussions can be found at the following points in the episode:
- 03:35 John Fry at Kongsberg.
- 20:18 Mark Robinson at Frequentis Australasia.

Low-cost marketing channels that drive leads.
When a crisis happens, the first thing to get cut is often a company’s marketing budget. Even Google announced that it would be cutting its budget by as much as half in April.
The good news is that effective marketing doesn’t have to break the bank. Here are five low-cost levers you can pull to keep leads coming in, even when resources are tight.
More good news: ads are cheap right now (average cost for Google retargeting ads is $0.66-$1.23), though impressions and clicks are still high. Google has multiple ad campaigns you can choose from, but retargeting ads are the ads to focus on in a recession marketplace. Ads that retarget are among the highest converting, and consumers are particularly responsive during this time. Approximately 36% of US consumers report they have made an impulse buy based on an ad since the start of the pandemic. Even if you need to cut your spending, you can prioritize these ads and see results.
With a smaller budget, you want to target the leads who are already in your funnel—that means taking to social media. For example, if you’re selling furniture, your furniture should be on Pinterest to reach more prospects who are already in your marketing funnel (as this site can be used to impress a super targeted audience). Many social media platforms have lowered their prices for ads, though impressions and clicks have doubled. The average cost per click of facebook ad is $1.72. Facebook, Twitter, Snapchat, Instagram all offer PPC ads for as low as $5.
Speaking of ads, there are many different options for how to contract them. But some are more cost-effective than others. With pay-per-impression, you pay a predetermined fee for every 1,000 impressions of an ad. But with pay-per-click (or PPC), you only pay for an ad when someone clicks on it. It guarantees traffic to your website. So if you’re working with a tighter budget, PPC will make your marketing dollars go further. The average cost per click on a search network is only $2.32.
With the surge in online traffic since the pandemic, many businesses have found a new market getting found online. However, getting found is no easy task, and SEO investment can often be expensive. Enter reviews. About 84% of consumers trust reviews as much as a personal recommendation. Reviews are free and are a primary factor in how Google ranks businesses. If managed correctly, they can help you top search results and prove a cheap and effective way to reach leads in your marketing funnel.
After leads see your stellar reviews, they land on your site. One low-cost marketing channel that turns your website into a lead-converting machine is live chat. Website chat is a convenient communication feature that approximately 41% of customers expect to see when they land on your website. This kind of convenience pays. A recent survey reported that live chat leads to a 48% increase in revenue per chat hour and a 40% increase in conversion rate. You can install a website chat (that can convert conversations into text conversations and cater to multiple locations) for free here.
If you’re a marketing director or manager, we know you’re facing new challenges and a lot of pressure. That’s why we want to help you work smarter, not harder. If you take advantage of these low-cost marketing channels, you’ll be able to drive leads more effectively, without breaking the bank.

Auto Finesse Revolution is a highly lubricated wheel soap that's more than capable of tackling light build ups of brake dust and road grime, yet it doesn't rely on strong chemicals to achieve this. This makes it ideal for regular use on sensitive aftermarket rims, as are often fitted to show cars. Furthermore, Auto Finesse Revolution doesn't strip wheel sealants, which makes it a great choice for use on much-loved daily drivers too. Other benefits include its thin consistency (once made up), which enables it to be worked into even very complex wheel designs with consummate ease, and its free-rinsing nature, which leaves rims and tyres both streak- and spot-free.

Cleaning Strength4/10(Compared To Others)
DilutableUp To 800:1(Water:Product)
Auto Finesse Revolution is an advanced wheel soap concentrate comprising gentle cleaning agents and slick lubricating oils suspended in a gel-like carrier solution. This unique formula is designed to safely break down fresh brake dust and road grime in the gentlest way possible. Consequently, Auto Finesse Revolution is ideal for use on sensitive rims (e.g. anodised, chrome plated and bare polished metal finishes) and also in cases where sealed rims need to be cleaned regularly without degrading the lifespan of the sealant. Auto Finesse Revolution comes supplied as a concentrate and must be diluted before use, either in a bucket (just like a shampoo) or a pressure sprayer.

How To Use
For best results, use at a dilution rate of 800:1 (water:product), which equates to 25 ml in a PB Clear Wash Bucket or 2 ml in a MESTO CLEANER Pressure Sprayer. Simply add the correct amount of product to your bucket or sprayer tank and then fill it to the top with warm water. The resulting solution should then be applied liberally and agitated gently using a suitable brush and/or a microfibre wash mitt (ideal choices for delicate rims are the Microfiber Madness Incredibrush and/or the Microfiber Madness Incrediflair). This action will produce a rich lather, which will discolour as brake dust and road grime is progressively broken down. Accordingly, it is sensible to rinse out your brush and/or wash mitt regularly during this process, otherwise there is risk of marring or even scratching your rims. The lather should then be rinsed off with a strong stream of water and the wheels then dried fully before any rim protection or tyre dressing is applied. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
Medical Defence Union sponsors NHS Parliamentary Awards
The Medical Defence Union (MDU) is delighted to announce it’s sponsorship of the upcoming NHS Parliamentary Awards ceremony which will be held in Westminster on Monday 14 October 2024.
The NHS Parliamentary Awards were created in 2018 for health and care organisations as well as MPs to celebrate and recognise the outstanding achievements of staff, volunteers and others working across the NHS.
As sponsor, the MDU’s Dr Caroline Fryar and Thomas Reynolds were honoured to be part of the national judging panel to select the winners of this year’s ten awards. With 918 nominations, an increase of over 160 on 2023, selecting the finalists and winners proved to be particularly challenging.
Dr Matthew Lee, chief executive at the MDU, said: “The MDU is proud to be supporting this year’s NHS Parliamentary Awards.
“Day in, day out, we see how hard healthcare professionals are working on the frontline – and we are proud to speak up for them in Westminster, and champion their professional interests.
“It is important that the hard work and dedication of NHS colleagues is recognised. This shortlist, drawn from nearly 1,000 nominations, is a testament to the achievements and commitment of colleagues across the nation. I offer my warmest congratulations to everyone who has been shortlisted.”
The MDU’s support of the NHS Parliamentary Awards is just the latest way the MDU is championing members and taking their concerns to the heart of Westminster.
Recently, the MDU published its latest policy paper: An Agenda for Change. The paper calls for the government to reform healthcare professional regulation, to tackle the huge cost of clinical negligence claims and to do more to protect doctors’ health and wellbeing. An earlier survey by the MDU found these were among the areas doctors want the government to prioritise.
The full list of priorities, include:
- Reform of healthcare professional regulation
- Bring forward a Section 60 Order to enable doctors to get the reformed, fairer, more timely and more proportionate model of regulation they have long promised.
- The same legislative steps should immediately follow for dental professionals in respect of the GDC.
- Action on clinical negligence costs
- Repeal Section 2(4) of the Law Reform (Personal Injuries) Act 1948, which will allow courts to factor in the existence of the NHS when determining compensation.
- Tackle disproportionate legal costs by ensuring fixed recoverable costs in lower value clinical negligence claims is promptly enacted.
- Supporting the health and wellbeing of the workforce
- Direct NHS employers to ensure that staff catering, and rest facilities are provided, including for those working out of hours.
- Commit to continued funding for programmes like NHS Practitioner Health which can ensure support for doctors when they feel at risk of, or experience burnout.

GDP: Families and businesses need an investment budget, says TUC
Commenting on today’s (Friday) GDP data, which shows monthly growth of 0.2% and growth of 1.0% in the last 12 months, TUC General Secretary Paul Nowak said:
“The government inherited a stagnant economy with living standards, growth and investment in the doldrums.
“Everyone can see the problems the Tories left behind – skills shortages, crumbling public services and a record number of people out of work with ill health.
“Families and businesses need a fresh start.
“This month’s budget is an opportunity to turn the page and unleash a new era of growth. The Chancellor can deliver the capital investment that will help us repair and rebuild this country.” | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

Symbiosis is close and often long-term interaction between two or more different biological species. Some symbiotic relationships are obligate, meaning that both symbionts entirely depend on each other for survival. In business the symbiotic relationship shows up in an unusual way. It brings together simplicity and complexity in the form of strategy and execution.
Strategy must be simple. It must focus on the activity you want to monopolize. Execution is complex. It needs nuance, it takes time to perfect, it requires relentless measurement, tireless tests. It requires the embracing of failure. It takes exhaustive practice. It is multi-layered and cross departmental. But without direction, simple clarity on strategy, execution is merely hysterical activity confusing effectiveness with activity!
Strategy and execution, simplicity and complexity, the symbiotic relationship at the heart of every long term, successful business. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

WASHINGTON: The Pentagon has deployed two aircraft carriers — and their supporting ships — to the eastern Mediterranean since the attacks on Israel.
The ships are meant as a deterrent to ensure the conflict does not expand, but bring a significant amount of power to a region that already hosts a number of US military ships, planes and troops.
The Gerald R. Ford carrier, along with supporting ships, arrived in the eastern Mediterranean early last week.
The Ford, which was commissioned in 2017, is the United States’ newest aircraft carrier and the world’s largest, with more than 5000 sailors aboard.
The carrier, which includes a nuclear reactor, can hold more than 75 military aircraft, including fighter aircraft like the F-18 Super Hornet jets and the E-2 Hawkeye, which can act as an early warning system.
It has an arsenal of missiles, like the Evolved Sea Sparrow Missile, which is a medium-range, surface-to-air missiles used to counter drones and aircraft.
The rolling air frame missile on the Ford is used to target anti-ship missiles along with the Mk-15 Phalanx Close-In Weapon System which is used to fire armor piercing bullets.
The Ford also includes sophisticated radars that can help control air traffic and navigation.
The supporting ships, such as the Ticonderoga-class guided missile cruiser Normandy,
Arleigh-Burke-class guided missile destroyers Thomas Hudner, Ramage, Carney, and Roosevelt.
They include surface-to-air, surface-to-surface, and anti-submarine warfare capabilities.
The Pentagon directed the Dwight Eisenhower carrier strike group to move to the eastern Mediterranean. It will take between a week and a week and a half to reach the region.
The nuclear powered carrier, commissioned in 1977, first carried out operations during Iraq’s invasion of Kuwait.
The carrier, also known as the “Ike,” has 5000 sailors and can carry up to nine squadrons of aircraft, like fighter jets, helicopters and those capable of carrying out intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance operations.
Much like the Ford, the Ike carrier will be accompanied by other ships like the guided-missile cruiser Philippine Sea, guided-missile destroyers Gravely and the Mason.
The ships are focused on protecting themselves and the carrier and while they can carry out offensive operations, are not best suited to act as a missile defenCce system for Israel, which already has sophisticated systems in place. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

What is vitiligo?
Vitiligo is a skin condition that causes a loss of pigment in patches on the skin. The condition is not contagious nor is it life threatening. The condition is characterized by the formation of smooth patches of skin that appear lighter than your normal skin tone or may even turn white. Vitiligo can occur anywhere on the body and even can affect the hair or inside of the mouth.
People of all skin types and tones can develop vitiligo, but the condition is most visible in people with darker skin tones since the contrast of the pigmentless areas is more noticeable. Vitiligo is a common condition, affecting 0.5 to 1 percent of the worldwide population. This figure may be more since people can underreport the condition. While treatment for vitiligo is not necessary, some may prefer treatment to help relieve stress or social anxiety around the condition. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi has urged Muslim nations to coordinate efforts to halt Israel's crimes and the brutal killing of people in the besieged Gaza Strip and Lebanon, expressing gratitude for Saudi Arabia’s swift stance in condemning the Zionist regime’s attack on Iran.
The top diplomat made the remarks on Monday night during a phone call with his Saudi counterpart Prince Faisal bin Farhan, as the pair emphasized the need to maintain contact and consultations with each other.
The two ministers discussed the latest developments in the region.
Farhan, for his part, reiterated his country’s stance in condemning Israel’s aggressive action in violating Iran’s sovereignty and territorial integrity, emphasizing the need for all regional countries to work together to prevent the spread of insecurity.
The Israeli regime attacked several Iranian military facilities early Saturday, killing four servicemen of the Armed Forces and one civilian.
Iran's Defense Minister Brigadier General Aziz Nasirzadeh said on Monday that Israel’s aggression had caused “minor” damage which was immediately repaired and replaced.
Secretary of Iran's Supreme National Security Council (SNSC) Ali Akbar Ahmadian also said on Monday that the Israeli aggression has had no impact on the Islamic Republic’s military power.
Iran has emphasized that it is not looking for war but will not abandon its right to give an "appropriate and firm" response to Israel’s latest act of aggression. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

Leading berry company Naturipe Farms has been awarded at this year’s New York Produce Show and Conference for its Naturipe Snacks product line that combines fruit, cheese and nuts into one portable package.
The Joe Nucci Award for Product Innovation was presented to the organisation’s director of business development, Jill Overdorf, during the Thought-Leader breakfast as part of the all-encompassing four-day event presented by Produce Business and the Eastern Produce Council.
In announcing the award, Produce Business‘ Jim Prevor highlighted the importance of innovation in driving fruit and vegetable consumption.
“We talked about our efforts to increase consumption in the industry, but remember, in order to increase consumption in general you need to increase consumption specifically,” he said, adding this would not be possible by selling “the same old thing” and not offering something “new and exciting.”
(L-R) Jim Prevor, Gina Nucci, Lorri Koster and Jill Overdorf
The award was presented by Joe Nucci’s sisters Gina Nucci and Lorri Koster.
Overdorf said Naturipe was “thrilled to be honoured in this way.”
“It’s an amazing acknowledgment of all the work that’s gone into this and the concept that produce belongs everywhere,” she told PBUK after receiving the award.
She explained the product was designed to fill a niche market for on-the-go, healthy consumers.
“It’s been in process for almost five years and then we were able to come out with it last year and this is the first year that we’ve really been able to go to market with it,” she said.
“It’s one of the most innovative snack packs but we did a really good stop-gate assessment of it early on, and this is what the market needed – a little bit of protein and lots of fruit. So 5.5 ounces at 300 calories seems to be a really great combination for people on-the-go.”
Naturipe Snacks come in six different flavours, to suit the “whole gamut” of consumer preferences.
“We have cashews, pistachios, almonds, so we have a number of different nuts that are in there and a number of different types of cheeses depending upon the pallet of the person who’s interested,” she said.
“We had a really great innovation team and it came up with an idea. We have a collective of farmers for whom we all work – its four different cooperatives of farmers and they were trying to think of different ways to get their products sold.”
The representative said that so far the consumer response has been “fabulous”.
“We’re available nationwide. We don’t have a lot of early adopters yet because people see the prospect of it but they haven’t really been able to pick it up.
“We’re having a full launch in 2018. You can find some of the flavours in Walmart right now – they were one of our first big supporters.” | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

When you think of general contractors, you usually don’t think “warm and fuzzy”. That’s unless you ask the children at Franciscan Hospital for Children in the Brighton section of Boston. After a recent visit by South Coast Improvement Co. to deliver 25 pillow puppets to the children, the consensus there is that GC’s, particularly those from South Coast Improvement, are all that and a bag of potato chips.
“We’ve done a lot of work over the past few years at Franciscan Hospital and the cooperation of the staff and patients and their families has been phenomenal,” said Sean Whalen, South Coast Improvement’s vice president of business development. “We go to great lengths to minimize any disruption to hospital activities. That’s only possible with help of staff and the patience of patients. The pillow puppets for the kids are just our way of saying thank you.”
South Coast Improvement’s projects at Franciscan Hospital have included the relocation of the reception desk, a renovation accomplished without ever closing down the entrance lobby. To minimize the impact to traffic flow and in and out of the hospital, South Coast completely constructed the new reception desk off-site and prepared the wiring in advance. Installation was as simple as dropping in the desk and plugging in the electrical.
Installation of the new reception desk wasn’t the only thing special about this project. South Coast Improvement designed the millwork for the reception area to look like blades of sea grass waving in the breeze. South Coast Improvement also designed a cloud system, constructed out of drywall, and hung it over the new reception desk.
“We’re delighted with work performed by South Coast Improvement on the reception area,” said Chantal Brandimarte, advancement associate for Franciscan Hospital for Children. “As for the pillow puppets, I can’t say I’m surprised. The crews who have worked on these projects have always had a soft spot for the kids and this generous gift just shows that.”
South Coast Improvement Co is a recognized leader in providing building and renovation services to a client base of senior living, healthcare and institutional clients. In addition to Franciscan Hospital for Children, South Coast Improvement has also done extensive projects at hospitals such as the Beth Israel Deaconess Hospital-Plymouth (the former Jordan Hospital) and such healthcare facilities as National Health Corporation, Sun Health Care Group and Welch Healthcare and Retirement Group.

The workplace after lockdown - Ian Eggleton of Evans Jones
By Ian Eggleton, director, Evans Jones surveyors and planning consultants | 15th May 2020
As we tentatively emerge from the coronavirus lockdown phase, our attentions turn to the future and how the new normal might begin to look post COVID-19.
Just this week, Twitter has announced it has told staff they can work from home forever if they wish.
The social media giant said its work-from-home measures during the lockdown had been a success, but said it would allow workers to return to the office when it reopens if they choose.
Twitter said: "The past few months have proven we can make that work. So if our employees are in a role and situation that enables them to work from home and they want to continue to do so forever, we will make that happen."
So, the future remains to be seen - will we all become digital nomads working from home offices or will we crave the social interaction and collaboration the office environment brings?
With social distancing in force, the practicalities of the entire workforce returning to the traditional office are complex.
It is not just the two metre rule - there are shared spaces, toilets, meeting rooms, lifts and reception areas to be considered.
And with stretched cashflow and the threat of recession, the likelihood of companies taking on extra office space to accommodate this is surely minimal.
More likely is that a large proportion of office workers will continue working from home for the foreseeable future - at least until a vaccine can be found.
There has been a noticeable shift in attitude during the lockdown - home working has been tried and tested and old stigmas have started to be broken down.
So as the lockdown lifts, how can the property market and landlords respond to these requirements?
If home working becomes more embedded in our society and businesses find they need less space or require more flexible office space, can landlords find a way to work with their tenants to find mutually agreeable solutions?
Can existing leases be negotiated to be more flexible to reflect the uncertain future, as well as accommodate future requirements?
Some experts have predicted a boom in co-working space as businesses seek to plug the gap between their fixed office space and what they will need to accommodate their employees.
While we all crave a better work-home-life balance, we are social creatures at heart and most of us crave the social and collaborative aspect the office environment brings.
Perhaps the future is a more fluid, flexible approach to working with a mix of home, office and co-working - perhaps the perfect balance we are all looking for at last?
But it will surely be landlords that are flexible and willing to listen and engage with their tenants at the forefront of this new landscape.
As property and planning consultants, Evans Jones advise businesses on all aspects of commercial property. If you are evaluating your business requirements for office and work space in the light of the pandemic, we can advise you through the process - contact us at www.evansjones.co.uk and we will be happy to discuss your situation and future requirements.

In this blog post you’ll learn our best 3 tips about how to sell a House off market in El Paso without a real estate agent.
When it comes to selling your house, you have 2 options….
The first option is to sell your house through a real estate agent. This way can be expensive since the agent will charge you a commission for their services – and that commission can be anywhere from 5% of the sale price or higher (often thousands of dollars).
The second option is to sell your house without a real estate agent. This way can be much cheaper, since you won’t have to pay an agent thousands of dollars in commission – that’s money that stays in your pocket.
Here are 3 tips about how to sell a House off market in El Paso without a real estate agent:
Sell A House Off Market – Tip #1: Clean Up The House
The more “ready-to-live-in” your house is, the higher price you might be able to get for your house. So this might involve some cleaning up or even fixing up.

A post was circulated on Facebook claiming that South Sudanese bishops were ‘forced’ to sign a document to respect the LGBTQ community to attend the Lambeth Conference in the United Kingdom. This post is FALSE. According to the Secretary-General of the Anglican Communion, none of the bishops was forced to sign a document concerning LGBTQ.
“No Bishop was forced to sign any document against their will. We have a code of conduct. The code of conduct says when you are attending the conference, you have to respect each other’s views; this is what is expected. It is common whenever you come to such conferences to have a ground rule that we all agree with, and in this case, we had a code of conduct which was agreed upon to protect everybody who is here at the conference. It has nothing to do with homosexuality as it is alleged.” the Archbishop of Canterbury’s Adviser on Anglican Communion Affairs, Bishop Anthony Poggo, told Radio Tamazuj.
Nevertheless, the fake post claimed that.
“South Sudanese bishops ‘forced’ to sign documents to respect the LGBT-Q community to attend bishops’ conference
South Sudan Anglican Church bishops headed Justin Badi were forced to sign a document to respect the LGBT-Q community at Lambeth Conference at the University of Kent in Canterbury.
About 60 South Sudan bishops who protested same-sex marriage were invited to attend the conference.
The bishops were presented with a 4-paged document to sign to respect those of diverse sexualities.
They were given the option to sign the document or miss out on the conference.
According to source who was at the conference, the bishops and their wives agreed to sign the document after lengthy consultation.
The fifteenth Lambeth Conference is taking place at the University of Canterbury in Kent and will run to August 8. Its theme is “God’s Church for God’s World: Walking, Listening and Witnessing together.” this post stated.
The Lambeth Conference is a gathering of bishops from across the Anglican Communion for prayer and reflection, fellowship and dialogue on church and world affairs.
This year, the conference will explore what it means for the Anglican Communion to be responsive to the needs of the 21st century.
According to Christian Today, an independent Christian media company, an orthodox fellowship of Anglicans, had asked bishops at the Lambeth Conference to reaffirm Lambeth 1.10 as the “official teaching of the Anglican Communion on marriage and sexuality”.
Resolution 1.10 was passed at the 1998 Lambeth Conference and upheld marriage as a union between a man and a woman for life while rejecting homosexual practice as incompatible with Scripture.
At the 2022 Lambeth Conference in Canterbury, Kent, formal resolutions have been replaced by ‘Calls’ on topical issues. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

Manmandil Ghat, Benares - 1869
Photograph from the riverbank looking towards the Observatory overlooking the ghat from 'Views of Benares, from the River Side' taken by Brajo Gopal Bromochary in 1869. "This Ghat is principally remarkable for the Old Observatory, situated upon the banks of the river at this spot. This lofty building gives a noble appearance to the Ghat and commands a fine view of the river. The approach to it is not from the Ghat, but from a street leading to it, at a considerably higher elevation than the foundations of the edifice. The Observatory was erected by Raja Jay Singh, who succeeded to the ancient Rajas of Ambheri, in the year 1693 A.D. Now most of its astronomical instruments are out of order." The Observatory, built by Raja Sawai Jai Singh of Jaipur (r.1699 to 1743) in the 18th century, was one of five built by the Raja, the others being at Delhi, Jaipur, Ujjain and Mathura. Sawai Jai aimed to improve the Indian calendar and wanted to precisely locate the sun for the purpose of map making. The instruments were large masonry structures, equipped with protractors and marked grids, to aid in the precise measurement of the location of celestial objects.

R&B and Cathelco partnership to supply and installation of ballast water treatment systems.
While ballast water is essential for safe and efficient modern shipping operations, it may pose serious ecological, economic and health problems due to the multitude of marine species carried in ships’ ballast water.
The transferred species may survive to establish a reproductive population in the host environment, becoming invasive, out-competing native species and multiplying into pest proportions.
The spread of invasive species is now recognised as one of the greatest threats to the ecological and the economic wellbeing of the planet.
Working closely together, Cathelco and R&B have started the design, manufacture and retrofit of the ballast water treatment systems.

Because I recently read and love The House We Grew Up In
by Lisa Jewell, I decided to take the advice of a friend and read The Making of Us, another one of her novels published a few years ago. And I loved it. Daniel is at the end of his battle with cancer and finally admits to his confidante Maggie that he did in fact have children many years ago but has never met them. In his early twenties as a struggling student he was a sperm donor. As the donor rules and process evolved over the years, he deeply regretted never having known anything about these humans carrying his DNA that were complete strangers. Lydia, Dean and Robyn have always felt something was missing. All three grew up without any siblings and possessed certain traits that always set them apart. Now in their twenties living near and around London, they received a notice from the sperm donor agency and with some hesitation agreed to the possibility of getting to know these relatives they had only dreamed about. Each has their own tale, searching for love and acceptance throughout their challenging childhoods. Sperm donation is a common topic that most people know little about. The protocols of finding distant siblings or possibility of being related to the girl next door are intriguing and a little scary. Lisa Jewell immediately draws the reader into the lives of these quirky characters. It is hard to imagine the many choices we would be faced with in a similar situation. The idea of family connection through genetics as opposed to who has raised you brings forth many questions and possibilities. I highly recommend this enjoyable, easy and most interesting novel! | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
What Makes Readlee One of the Best Reading Apps for Kids?
Educators and parents are well aware that a student’s reading level is important throughout their academic journey. When fifth grade teacher, Amy, started using Readlee in her classroom, she quickly saw growth in students’ fluency through benchmark testing. One of her struggling students was reading only 18 words per minute at the beginning of the school year, but within just a couple months of using Readlee he was reading 106 words per minute. “We are a title one school, so kids don’t have all the advantages of other schools,” Amy explains. “So Readlee has been huge for us.”
Amy uses Readlee as a literacy tool for several subjects including English, social studies, and even math. She loves that Readlee holds students accountable with the ability to read aloud, play the recording back, and listen to themselves. Before Readlee, she had her students practice fluency with partners, but if the partner didn’t know how to pronounce the word they wouldn’t mark it as wrong. Readlee was able to solve this issue by providing fluency data and progress monitoring, allowing Amy to meet each student exactly where they were at.
Teachers and students using Readlee not only get a renewed chance to practice fluency consistently in any grade with grade level content, they also get valuable feedback that will increase their skills, accountability, and confidence as readers.
The Best Reading Apps for Kids Produce Results
Readlee has been proven as a way to increase quality instructional time by ensuring all students are listened to when they read aloud. Readlee’s speech recognition software measures accuracy, pace, completion, and total time, pages, words, new words read, and more. This data enables teachers to see exactly where each student is at with their reading progress.
Educators using Readlee have seen results similar to the ones Amy achieved with her class. In 2021, Readlee conducted a case study. From February to May, two 10th grade English classrooms used Readlee, and a third classroom, the control group, did not use Readlee. The classrooms that used Readlee outperformed the control classroom on standardized assessments. Compared to the control classroom, a higher percentage of students in the Readlee classrooms scored at least 75%, indicating some degree of mastery of the material. Additionally, a lower percentage of students in the Readlee classrooms scored below 50%, indicating that Readlee helps reduce the percentage of the students who struggle with the material.
The data from this case study shows that Readlee is effective in increasing students’ foundational literacy skills and reading comprehension skills while simultaneously increasing teachers' ability to collect and respond to data.
What Makes Readlee Fun for kids?
Time spent reading is a critical indicator of student academic outcomes and has been tied to vocabulary development, fluency, comprehension, and general intellectual development. Yet American children read for 15 minutes a day or less. Millions of kids simply do not read.
One of the ways we solve this at Readlee is by making reading fun! The best reading apps for kids are the ones kids get excited to use. To make reading fun for kids, Readlee offers several gamification features. Below are a few favorites derived from feedback from real students who use Readlee.
Just-in-time scaffold. Students can click on any word hear pronunciations, read definitions, and synonyms
Reading metrics. Students can review words read per minute, total words, correct words, and more.
Read aloud. Students love that they can record themselves, play back the audio, and hear themselves read.
Student feedback. Students can receive written, recorded, or emoji feedback on their assignments.
Student avatar. Students can make an avatar and earn points from each completed assignment that they can put towards gaining accessories for their avatars.
What Makes Readlee Fun for Teachers?
We like to think that the good things in life are often free — and that can mean some of the best reading apps for kids can be free for teachers too. That’s right, in addition to all the great features and data that Readlee offers, it’s also free for teachers to sign up and create an account.
Readleeoffer plans for every classroom, school, and district. The Readlee Basic Plan is always free for teachers and contains all the core features teachers need to drive reading practice. Interested in trying Readlee? Create your free account here! | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
Reclaimed bricks are a sustainable and aesthetically pleasing material used in various construction and landscaping projects in Westward Ho. These bricks have been salvaged from old buildings, walls, and other structures, and they carry with them a history and character that new bricks simply cannot match. The use of reclaimed bricks is not only an environmentally friendly choice but also adds a unique charm to any building or garden.
The primary use of reclaimed bricks is in the restoration of period properties where maintaining the authenticity of the architecture is essential. They are also popular in new construction, extensions, and garden landscaping, providing a classic and timeless look that blends seamlessly with the surrounding environment. In garden design, reclaimed bricks can be used for pathways, edging, and even as features within the garden itself, such as in raised beds or as part of a water feature.
One of the significant benefits of using reclaimed bricks is their sustainability. By repurposing these materials, we reduce the need for new brick production, which in turn conserves natural resources and minimizes waste. Additionally, reclaimed bricks often come from local sources, which reduces the carbon footprint associated with transporting new materials over long distances. They are also known for their durability, having already withstood the test of time and elements, making them a robust choice for any project.
When it comes to buying reclaimed bricks in Westward Ho, ReclaimedBricks.Com are no: 1!
However, it’s worth noting that while reclaimed bricks offer many advantages, there are some considerations to keep in mind. The strength and quality of reclaimed bricks can vary, and they may not always meet contemporary standards for frost resistance or load-bearing capacity.
Reclaimed bricks are an excellent choice for those looking to add character, history, and sustainability to their construction or landscaping projects. With their unique appearance and proven durability, they offer a distinct advantage over new materials. For those in Westward Ho, suppliers like Reclaimedbricks.com provide the opportunity to source these materials locally, contributing to the conservation of Britain’s heritage while supporting sustainable building practices.
Whether you’re restoring a period property or creating a new garden design in the Westward Ho area, reclaimed bricks can provide the perfect blend of beauty, history, and environmental responsibility. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
It was not only overcrowded during the REHVA cocktail, but the same happened during the AASA (ASHRAE Associate Society Alliance). On the invitation of ASHRAE, always many HVAC societies worldwide come together to meet and discuss under the leadership of Tom Watson, past president of ASHRAE, on global issues. All the representatives are challenged to present ‘news’ from their country/society in the field of HVAC related research or sustainability policy in general. During this meeting too, DANVAK had the opportunity to inform all representatives about the next REHVA Clima 2016.
A very good presentation was given by Dr. Shamila Nair-Bedouelle, Head of UNEP OzonAction Branch about the goal to realize a sustainable phase-out of Ozone Depleting Substances (ODS) in refrigeration and air conditioning applications; maximizing the climate benefits of using low-GWP alternatives including aspects of energy saving in buildings; as well as facilitating the transfer and adoption of sustainable and feasible technologies to developing countries.

In the realm of joint health supplements, NHR Paractin Joint has garnered attention for its claims to support joint function and alleviate discomfort. With numerous options on the market, we decided to delve into this product to provide an unbiased evaluation of its pros and cons.
NHR Paractin Joint boasts a blend of natural ingredients, including Paractin, which is derived from Andrographis Paniculata, a plant with potential anti-inflammatory properties.
Paractin, the key ingredient, is believed to possess anti-inflammatory properties that may help reduce joint inflammation, swelling, and discomfort.
The manufacturer claims that Paractin has been the subject of clinical studies, suggesting its potential benefits for joint health. This may provide some reassurance to consumers about the efficacy of the product.
NHR Paractin Joint is often available in the form of easy-to-swallow capsules, making it convenient for individuals who prefer supplement forms over topical treatments.
The product is generally considered safe for consumption, with limited reports of adverse effects. This could be appealing to individuals seeking alternatives to prescription medications with potential side effects.
While the manufacturer claims clinical studies on Paractin, independent research validating the specific joint health benefits of NHR Paractin Joint is relatively scarce. Consumers might find it challenging to fully evaluate the product’s effectiveness based solely on existing studies.
As with many supplements, the efficacy of NHR Paractin Joint can vary from person to person. Some users might experience noticeable improvements, while others may see little to no change in their joint discomfort.
Compared to generic joint supplements, NHR Paractin Joint can be relatively pricey. This might deter budget-conscious consumers from trying the product, especially given the uncertainty surrounding its effectiveness.
It’s important to note that joint health is influenced by various factors, including diet, exercise, and overall lifestyle. Relying solely on a supplement like NHR Paractin Joint might not yield significant improvements if other aspects of joint care are neglected.
While short-term use might yield relief, there’s limited information available about the long-term effects of consistently taking NHR Paractin Joint. Consumers should be cautious and consult a healthcare professional, especially if considering prolonged use.
NHR Paractin Joint presents itself as a natural solution for joint discomfort, backed by potential anti-inflammatory benefits. While it’s promising that the key ingredient, Paractin, has been the subject of clinical studies, the lack of independent research and varying individual results should be considered. The product’s convenience and reported safety are definite advantages, but the cost and its role as a standalone solution raise questions. As with any supplement, consulting a healthcare professional before starting NHR Paractin Joint is recommended, especially for those with existing health conditions or concerns. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

Global superstar Will Smith headlines Warner Bros. Pictures’ “Focus,” a slick heist film with a sophisticated vibe in which the stakes start out high and get exponentially higher.
Smith stars as Nicky Spurgeon who is all charm and ease, a cool, smooth operator with a million-dollar smile and perfectly understated style. Just don’t turn your back on him…don’t let him steal your focus for a second.
Enter Jess Barrett (Margot Robbie), a gorgeous young woman with flirty blonde locks and a wiggle in her short skirt, looking to get in the con game. She’s got all the right equipment, but she’s green. She just needs a guiding hand to show her all the right moves.
Nicky’s masterful cons take them from snowy New York to sunny New Orleans to one of South America’s most exquisite cities, Buenos Aires. Toss in the year’s ultimate football match and the exceedingly competitive world of car racing and all together it’s a formula for high-octane action, adventure and romance.
“I loved ‘Crazy, Stupid, Love.,’” Smith states, “so when I heard that John Requa and Glenn Ficarra were working on another screenplay, I was excited to get in anywhere that I fit in. And when I read the screenplay, I thought it was a brilliant combination of comedy, drama, psychology and intrigue. It demanded a wide spectrum of behavior. As an actor, I was inspired by the challenge of it.”
A jack-of-all-trades by trade, Smith’s character, Nicky, was raised in the world of deception. He’s left his family behind, but nevertheless continues on in the family business, from neatly picking pockets to expertly running the long con, and everything in between.
“Nicky is one of the smartest, most dysfunctional people you’ll ever meet,” says Smith. “He understands human nature and human behavior—there are very few people with that level of depth and comprehension. But he got his heart broken when he was little, and he has not yet learned to use his powers for good.”
According to Ficarra, “When we first thought about casting Nicky, we thought it would be great if Will Smith—who we all know is an affable, charming guy—would be interested in playing this man who can draw anybody in, but underneath it’s all an act. Behind the facade he shows to the world lies cool calculation. We really wanted to see Will take Nicky on.”
Requa says, “Will is a great actor, and also a great improviser, both in the traditional sense but especially when it comes to finding small, subtle improvisations within the context of the written dialogue that aid the other actors in a scene. He’s very giving of himself, and he shapes his performance to provide the others what they need for their performance as well. In essence, he already understands how a confidence artist operates.”
Smith conveys with a smile, “Glenn and John, as a directing team, are like loving parents who used to own a casino and a strip club. They always want to make sure that their children are in good spirits, are working hard to keep the family business alive, and want their children to be just intoxicated enough to do the best work of their lives.”
Co-star Margot Robbie credits Smith’s generous nature for their instant rapport. “Will’s the best. He’s hilarious, he has such a positive presence and he’s so accommodating and lovely. I actually forgot that he has such a high profile and huge fan base—until we got to Argentina and suddenly there were thousands of people outside the trailer on our first day of shooting there!”
Opening across the Philippine on February 25, 2015, “Focus” is distributed by Warner Bros. Pictures, a Warner Bros. Entertainment company. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

Parliament's extensive framework presents many opportunities for robust debate, discussion, and dissent. But the government has not allowed the Opposition its rightful space in Parliament.
Incomes in large swathes of UP depend on power supply that has been disrupted by coal shortages. At the same time, coal-fired electricity generation is losing economic viability in India's clean-energy shift.
Hierarchies of caste, class, and gender intersect to form a cocktail of horrors for the women of rural India — we must understand these nuances in order to form any policy that meaningfully tackles gender-based violence in India.
Indian Member of Parliament Ritesh Pandey discusses how the rural landscape of northern India has to battle with a changing climate – especially in terms of on the ground problems like shifting seasons, crop failure, and little resources to adapt – ultimately affecting hundreds of millions of people. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

If you’re going to be heading out on the road any time soon, then you need to make sure that you’re doing it safely. Of course, you still want to have an amazing time, and that should be one of your priorities. In this article, we’re going to be taking a look at some of the things that you need to do to make sure that this is the case. Keep reading down below if you would like to find out more.
Don’t Drive Tired
The first thing that we’re going to say is that you should never be driving tired. This should be the case all the time, but if you’re only going to follow this advice every now and then, now is the time to do so. Driving tired is extremely dangerous, not just for you but for the other road users. The reason for this is because your reflexes are not as sharp, and you’re less likely to be able to avoid an accident successfully. We know that you want to be safe on the road, but for this to be the case, you’ve got to be alert.
Check The Vehicle Before You Go
Another thing that you should be doing is checking the vehicle before you set out. The last thing that you want is to end up with an issue that could have been avoided if only you would have had a check prior to setting off. You can do this yourself if you know what you’re looking for, or you can take your vehicle to a professional and have them check it out.
It’s always better to be safe than sorry here, and even if you get it checked out and there’s nothing wrong with it, at least you have the peace of mind that you need.
Take One Night At Least To Relax
The final thing that we’re going to say is that even if you’re the one driving, you need to take at least one night to make sure that you’re having a great time. For some people this is going to include getting some craft cocktails and kicking back to relax, whereas for others it is going to mean heading to an event near your destination. It all depends on what will make you happy, just make sure that you’re safe when you get back behind the wheel.
You deserve to relax and have the best possible experience when you’re on a road trip, so make sure you’re not missing out.
We hope that you have found this article helpful, and now see some of the things that you can do to ensure that your next road trip is both fun and safe. Each thing on this list is dedicated to that end goal, and if you can think of more then that’s going to be even better! We wish you the very best of luck, and hope that you see success making the best of your next road trip.

It goes without saying that cats are safer indoors, but every neighborhood has cats that live both indoors and outside.
Outdoor cats certainly enjoy more freedoms than their indoor counterparts, but that freedom comes at a cost, especially for those being let out overnight.
What Are Outdoor Cats Doing All Night?
Cats are crepuscular, meaning they are most active during the dawn and dusk hours. Cats will naturally want to spend the evening outdoors, leaving their owners wondering what it is they’re doing out there all night.
Researchers at the University of Georgia found out the answer to this question by placing tiny cameras on 55 cats in the Atlanta area and painstakingly studying the many hours of footage that was captured. What they found was probably not too surprising, many of the cats were hunting, and almost all of them engaged in behaviors that were considered dangerous by the researchers.
The top dangerous behaviors were as follows.
- Crossing roads
- Encountering strange cats
- Eating and drinking substances away from the home
- Exploring storm drain systems
- Entering crawl spaces where they could become trapped
Danger Lurks at Every Turn!
There’s no doubt that leaving outdoor cats out overnight puts them at risk. Coyotes are present in nearly every American city and town, and cats are a favorite meal. Being hit by cars, attacked by other animals, ingesting antifreeze or other toxic substances, or being trapped inside a shed, barn, or crawlspace are only some of the dangers inherent in being out overnight.
Outdoor cats are also exposed to parasites and communicable diseases such as feline HIV and feline leukemia.
Finding Safe Alternatives
At Rocklin Ranch Veterinary Hospital, we always recommend pet cats be kept indoors for their own safety, but we recognize that not every cat owner will follow this advice. Whenever possible, keep your cat indoors during the night. They may not like this at first, but with time they will get used to their new schedule. Provide fun toys, food puzzles, and other activities to keep them busy while you sleep.
Wellness care for outdoor cats is extremely important. Protecting them from parasites and disease, and evaluating their overall health is paramount. For more information about your sweet kitty, or to set up an appointment, please don’t hesitate to contact our team. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
The Holmdel-based talent acquisition software company iCIMS Inc. has named a pair of C-suite executives in recent weeks.
On Thursday, the company said it has promoted Al Smith to chief technology officer, after hiring Valerie Rainey as chief financial officer last month.
In his new role, Smith will be responsible for iCIMS’ hosting and platform strategies. He joined the company in 2015 as vice president of technology.
“Since coming on board three years ago, Al has had a clear vision of iCIMS’ product lifecycle development program, our hosting environment and how to build centers of excellence within iCIMS Labs,” President and Chief Operating Officer Ronald Kasner said in a prepared statement. “I’m thrilled to be able to recognize Al’s achievements and impact on the organization, and am confident in his continued ability to execute for the company’s future state.”
Rainey, meanwhile, came to iCIMS with more than 20 years of business and financial leadership experience, including as CFO at shipping company CMA CGM America and software-as-a-service firm INTTRA Inc.
“I am thrilled to welcome Valerie to iCIMS during such an exciting time of expansion and growth for our company and the talent acquisition software industry,” Chairman and CEO Colin Day said in a statement. “… I’m confident that Valerie’s SaaS pedigree and impressive portfolio of financial management capabilities will support iCIMS’ goal of becoming the world’s No. 1 recruiting platform.” | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

Della, a socially responsible LA-based company, employs over 50 women in the developing villages of Ghana, West Africa, and what they are producing are not only quality products, but also beautiful, fashionable ones at that.
Having paired up this season with Vans shoes, Della is hoping to expand the awareness of what their company is doing in Ghana.
Della founder and head designer, Tina Tangalakis spoke of the people she has been working with there for over four years. “It’s a peaceful village, the people are extremely warm and we’ve gotten so close,” she says.
For the partnership with Vans, the men and women who are employed by Della in West Africa have created six unique designs, all hand crafted and one of a kind. To create the one of kind styles they use a special form of fabric dying. Batik, a West African form of fabric dying incorporates using hot wax and foam pieces to create one of a kind patterns and dye formations. The process, done outdoors in the lush landscape, is involved and includes many rounds of dying, waxing, dewaxing and drying before the fabric is ironed, cut and sewn to make each pair of shoes.
Head seamstress Esenam Nyaho states, “Della has changed our lives and we learn new things all the time.”
Overall, this partnership with Vans has allowed Della to employ over 60 people on this project. Della also lends a hand in skills training, weekly literacy classes, money management workshops, social security and health benefits.
Tangalakis went on to say, “My hope is that companies can not only be relevant and fashionable, but also that they could have heart. And we want to show that quality goods can come out of Africa.”
With the new vibrantly colorful VANS | Della line available in time for Spring/Summer 2014 we have no doubt that this will be a huge success for all parties involved. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

On Friday, September 2, charter air connection between Russia and Turkey resumed after a long ban imposed by Russian president Vladimir Putin in November of last year. The first charter flight in over nine months between the two countries was a Boeing 767 operated by the Russian carrier Royal Flight, which flew from Sheremetyevo airport, in Moscow, to Anatalya, in Turkey. Over 300 tickets were sold for the trip.
Another charter company taking part in the re-opening of the market is NordWind, which, on Sunday, September 4, began operating charter flights to Turkey out of Sheremetyevo.
The airport has already made the necessary preparations to accommodate the extra passenger traffic that is expected to appear as a result of the lift of the ban. The airport has, among other things, started operating a free night transfer for passengers between terminals.
Turkish aviation authorities have granted 18 approvals for the total of 63 frequencies between Russia and Antalya. According to media reports, permits are issued to Russian airlines without restrictions.
Charter travel between Russia and Turkey was banned in November of last year on an order by President Putin as a result of the shooting down of the Russian Sukhoi Su-24 by the Turkish Air Force back in November of last year. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

- Pre-lay of the mooring system completed
- Anchor-handling vessel accomplished the installation of six mooring lines and anchors
Essen / Bilbao, 17 May 2022
Chris Willow, Head of Floating Wind Development at RWE Renewables
RWE is well on track to become a leader in floating wind and to have one gigawatt either in operation or under construction by 2030. To gain experience early and pave the way for commercial-scale floating wind, RWE is participating in multiple high-profile floating demonstration projects like the DemoSATH pilot project with Saitec Offshore Technologies.
Pre-lay of the mooring system completed
In early May, the anchor-handling vessel Maersk Mariner completed the installation of six mooring lines (comprised by hybrid lines of chain and fibre rope) and six drag anchors. The mobilisation and loading of the mooring lines elements and preparation of the vessel was done at Punta Sollana quay, in the port of Bilbao (Spain), where the onshore construction of the floater is currently underway.
DemoSATH mooring, anchoring and quick connect solution is set for the 2MW turbine that will be tested later this year and which will be the first floating turbine connected to the Spanish grid.
For more information, please view the joint press release of Saitec Offshore Technologies and RWE or view the video. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
Fruitful Vale, Portland
The facility lies in West Portland, in the community of Fruitful Vale.
Background and Purpose:
The Fruitful Vale in West Portland is a rural community which was experiencing moderate population growth but generally experienced stagnated economic activities due to insufficient water supply at that time. It was revealed that the availability of potable (drinkable) water could enhance the rate of growth for Fruitful Vale and its. Therefore, the Government of Jamaica made the decision to design the Fruitful Vale Water Supply Scheme.
The previous supply of potable water was from the Scatter Spring which is operated by the National Water Commission. However, this source only supplied the lower elevation with water, the upper elevation was devoid of potable water. Therefore, Warsaw, an existing catchment at Sand Hole Spring, was used as a new water source.
The outputs of the project were:
- The cleaning of the catchment at Warsaw.
- The repairing of 100mm and 75mm pipeline conveying water from the catchment to the main road.
- The construction of a chlorination facility.
- The refurbishing of Dunbar Storage Reservoir.
- The building of inter-connections into the Rock Hall pipeline system.
- The laying of pipes in Chatsworth, Durham, Coopers Hill and Fruitful Vale.
Operator of the System:
The National Water Commission is responsible for operating and maintaining the supply scheme.
Status and Cost:
The project was completed at a cost of $9.175 million. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

I have had a really exciting few weeks. I was a finalist in the Telstra Business Women’s Awards. The process of going through the application, interview and then the awards was incredibly affirming and reinforced for me how passionate I am about my work.
The following week I was a guest speaker at the Australian Women of the Year Association. I spoke about my life and finding Helmut, defining moments, gratitude and celebrating our lives.
Again, it was a wonderful time to reflect and acknowledge what is important to me and what I am passionate about.
Last weekend I spoke at the Rotary Club of Cooma’s 60th Birthday celebration gala dinner. I spoke on motivation – having a huge “why” that inspires and challenges us to be more than we thought we could be.
All of these events had a common thread – that life is amazing when we are living out passion and purpose. In a nut shell – What inspires us to get out of bed in the morning?
What are we passionate about?
Recently I was reading an article by Janet Bray Atwood and Chris Attwood this week. They say that our passions are the pipelines to our soul. When we are connected tour passions we are happy, self-motivated, fulfilled, engaged and worthwhile.
All successful people have passion
and have learned to make decisions
based on what really matters to them.
They follow their hearts.
The questions they ask to help people find their passion are fun and interesting so I thought I would share them with you today.
Passion Test Directions:
- Spend a few minutes considering each of the open ended statements in the table below.
- Write your answers to each statement in the appropriate box as honestly as you can.
- Trim your list to the top 5 boxes by comparing each one and choosing the ones that would make your feel most fulfilled. Then trim those to your top number 1 passion.

As the danger in today’s running of the bulls did not come from the bulls – they all stayed together and ran a fast compact run from start to finish all the way to the bullring – the element of risk today has had to come from one of the steers that accompanied the Tajo y la Reina fighting bulls.
This particular steer began its run in a slow fashion as soon as it came out of the pens at Santo Domingo. It soon lost contact with the other steers and, of course, the bulls were well out of sight by then. When it reached the City hall square, it decided to turn round and head back down towards the pens. And, as it did so, it caused a few hearts to skip a beat and even gave a fright or two to some of the runners still on the course, because in the excitement of the moment some people don’t stop to consider if the animal is a fighting bull or just a steer. Although it is taken for granted that the steer will not cause a goring, this particular steer did shape up as if to make a charge and caused a few runners to dive to the ground just in case.
Half-way down the slope, without more ado, the animal turned back up again and it covered the rest of the course in normal fashion at a quick trot. Of course, it arrived a couple of minutes later than the rest of the pack who, by then, were all already safely locked in their pens inside the bullring. There a young australian have been gored.

For actress Neha Harsora, getting to watch her show everyday with her family keeps her motivated. The actress, who plays the role of Saillee in Rahul Tewary and Rolling Tales Production's Udne Ki Aasha, says that shooting a daily soap is tough, but rewarding as well.
“I feel like there's a very little part of me that has personal life because of my long work hours. It’s been tiring to manage both my personal and professional life. My routine has been just waking up and coming to shoot and being on set the whole day, then going home, eating food, watching my show, talking to my parents and going to sleep. It’s difficult but, yes, when I get leaves I spend time with my close ones,” she says.
She adds, “Night shoots are quite tiring because that is the only time that I get to sleep. If the shoot is 2 am or 3 am, it gets difficult and my sleep cycle gets disturbed. But we have to manage with naps and with the little sleeps that we get. I tend to get dark circles or puffiness if I don't get sleep. I try to get sleep and also do some skin routine whenever I can, because at the end of the day, your face is what matters and you should look good on TV. Sometime back, I had an allergic reaction and my whole face was swollen. It was a very bad day for me. I had to get injected in between the shoot and my closes were done at the end of the day. So, yes, your health does gets affected due to long working hours.”
However, she makes sure to take care of herself as much as she can, while shooting. “During the summer, I keep our self hydrated with electoral powder, lemonade, glucose powder and a lot of things,” she says.
Talking about why she loves daily soaps, she says, “I enjoy doing daily soaps as it's constant work, and it’s like a routine now. I actually enjoy the whole process, I am not just saying that it’s too tiring but I love when I see myself onscreen everyday. I feel like going back to work and putting in more efforts. I really enjoy watching myself on TV I am eating dinner with family. It’s something that I really want to see for the rest of my life.”
Unlike many, the actress has no problems in being labelled as a TV actor. “I am not among people who dislike being a TV actor as it’s my job and I really enjoy what I do. Be it any medium I am presenting, I am representing myself whatever channel, production house, and so I am happy being labelled,” she says.
She adds, “The best part of being in television or this industry is that people recognize me. Even though people who don't know me they message me, send a lot of well wishes and I really appreciate it. People who don't really know me think so good for me and send so much of blessings. This is like too much for me and when Udne ki Aasha started I was happy when people message me that they watch me as Sailee.” | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

The Easiest Part of Writing?
Today’s topic is rather challenging since while there are areas I’ve come a long way in, I still don’t really consider them easy. So, I’m not sure there’s really an “easiest” part in general. Ideas tend to be least difficult for me. Same goes for dialogue and plot…to an extent. Although, if there’s some kind of important “secret information” that needs to be shared and discussed, I tend to scratch my head and frown.
Someone once said “writing is 10% inspiration and 90% perspiration.” I’m inclined to agree. I find I have so many ideas for novels and novellas, yet finishing the novel I’m currently working on has been a bit challenging. Why? It involves that large dose of perspiration. Some days I have to force myself to sit down and write, yet I can lean back and daydream for a moment and get the best idea for a new story I’ve ever had. And they all seem that way when I get them. =)
Okay, back to the subject at hand! Dialogue is enjoyable for me since it allows the characters to communicate and show their personalities through what they do, or don’t, say. I’ve heard many people say they’re not good with dialogue, but for me, it’s all about listening to the voices in my head. Plot works in the same way. I don’t struggle much with it, but I’m still learning what works for me in regards to pre-writing work (outlining, etc). Although, the actual concept and how a piece unfolds forms relatively (note the word relatively… lol!) smoothly in my head. Yet most of the time with outlining, I don’t like to know too, too much because it takes away some of the suspense.
Anyways! What about you? What part of writing feels like second nature? Let me know! | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
Chances are you have heard the latest announcement that all Victorian new home builds from January 1, 2024 will need to be electric. The aim of this move from the state government perspective is to reduce household emissions while also saving Victorians up to $1,000 off their annual energy bills.
At SAW Constructions, we are getting ready to adapt to this changing landscape of home construction. In doing that, it’s also important to unpack what it will mean for new homes and explore the benefits and challenges we could expect.
Benefits to expect from electric homes
When it comes to the benefits of building electric homes, these are likely to be the key aspects:
Reduced carbon footprint: Phasing out gas in new homes could be a significant step toward reducing the carbon footprint of homes. Minimising household emissions is one of the primary motivations behind the switch, as electric heating and cooking methods are generally more energy-efficient and produce fewer greenhouse gas emissions compared to natural gas. By moving away from fossil fuels and to cleaner energy sources such as solar panels and battery storage, we can make our homes eco-friendlier and more sustainable, aligning with global initiatives.
Single energy infrastructure: When it comes to planning and delivering projects long term, managing a single energy supply to a medium density development should simplify the process. This entails investing effort in exploring various approaches for builders to enhance their installation and maintenance procedures in order to fully leverage the advantages.
Cost savings: Electrical appliances use less energy than gas appliances to get the job done, making them cheaper to run. Over time as electrical appliances become the norm, we can benefit from economies of scale prices, which will also reduce the cost-per-unit and offer further savings.
Potential challenges arising in the electric transition
As we look toward shifting all builds across the state to meet the electric home requirements, it’s worth recognising that challenges may arise. These are the challenges we are preparing to work through and overcome:
Supply chain concerns: Electrical appliances and infrastructure will be in high demand in Victoria, and supply chain disruptions or increased costs could occur in the short term. Items such as electric heat pumps, induction cooktops and electric hot water services are likely to be affected.
Increased electrical load: Government will need to address our already struggling electricity infrastructure network to ensure supply is consistent and readily available for all dwellings.
Potential cost increase: Without additional investment into solar power and panels, homes may see electricity bills go up.
Customer resistance: With the largest gas usage rate in the country, Victorian residents have traditionally used gas in homes and businesses. The preference many people have for gas especially, particularly for cooking and heating, could make new dwelling sales more challenging.
Building high-quality electric homes with SAW
The gas-to-electric transition for new home builds in Victoria comes with both benefits and challenges. Ultimately, the success of the implementation and transition from electricity to gas will be impacted by how well the government and building industry adapts to the changes.
At SAW Constructions, we are committed to staying at the forefront of this changing landscape to provide the best solutions for our clients. As the transition unfolds, it will be crucial for homeowners, builders, and the government to work together to navigate these challenges and realise the long-term benefits of a greener and more sustainable future. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

Health Check-up Camp At Scholars Academy
cholars Academy recently organized a health check-up camp for people. The camp was held in collaboration with Oscar Medicare Pvt Ltd and was aimed at providing basic medical check-ups to identify any underlying health problems and to promote awareness about health among the school community. We received top-notch medical care and advice from expert professionals.
The health check-up camp was conducted on 30 March 2023, and students from all grades were invited to participate. The medical staff from the hospital set up a temporary clinic in the school premises and conducted a range of medical examinations.
The camp was a huge success, with a large number of people, students, teachers, and staff members participating in the check-ups. Many students were found to have health problems that they were not aware of, such as high blood pressure or elevated blood sugar levels. These students were advised to seek further medical attention, and the school provided them with the necessary support and guidance.
The health check-up camp was a great initiative by Scholars Academy in Kotdwar (Uttarakhand) as it helped to promote awareness about health among the school community and identified health problems early on. It is important for schools to organize such events regularly to ensure that students, teachers, and staff members are healthy and happy.
In conclusion, Scholars Academy’s health check-up camp was a great success, and we hope that more schools follow this example and organize such events in the future. It is important to prioritize health and well-being, and such camps can go a long way in promoting good health practices among the school community. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
Engineering Modifications Enhance Aircraft Safety
- February 24, 2007
- University of Leicester
- Modifications of an aircraft control system developed by University of Leicester engineers, have been tested by flight test engineers from the German Aerospace Center (DLR) and German Air Force test pilots.
Modifications of an aircraft control system developed by University of Leicester engineers, have been tested by flight test engineers from the German Aerospace Center (DLR) and German Air Force test pilots.
The Leicester modifications have effectively compensated for an inherent design limitation that has led to several disastrous crashes - most notably the JAS-29 during an air show in Stockholm and the YF-22.
Man-machine interactions in aircraft can lead to so-called pilot involved/in-the-loop oscillations (PIOs) which can compromise aircraft performance and safety. PIOs have therefore become a major concern for the European and US aerospace industry.
The University of Leicester Department of Engineering has been a member of the European GARTEUR (Group for Aeronautical Research and Technology in Europe) Action Group AG15 for the past three years. The group's aim is to develop techniques which allow the prediction and prevention of PIOs.
Over the past several years Leicester has developed control design techniques ("anti-windup compensators") which can be added to existing aircraft control systems to lessen susceptibility to PIOs. Extensive mathematical development and computer simulation has matured these techniques but until summer 2006 no in-flight testing was performed.
Recently, a team of engineers from Leicester, the German Aerospace Center (DLR) and test pilots from the German Armed Forces Flight Test Centre (WTD61) performed in-flight tests of these "PIO prevention" compensators on the DLR ATTAS (Advanced Technologies Testing Aircraft System) experimental aircraft.
During this flight test campaign, termed SAIFE (Saturation Alleviation In-Flight Experiment), the ATTAS aircraft was deployed in scenarios which were expected to lead to PIO type events and data and pilot comments were collected both with and without the Leicester compensators engaged.
University of Leicester engineer Dr Matthew Turner commented: "Pilot comments showed that with the Leicester compensators engaged, the aircraft was significantly less PIO prone than without. Moreover, the aircraft was deemed to have more predictable handling qualities overall, which was an added bonus.
"In fact in every single manoeuvre the aircraft performed as well as or better than normal, when the Leicester compensators were engaged."
The results were well-received within the GARTEUR action group and further flight tests are planned - again jointly with DLR and WTD61 - in April 2007.

Max McDaniel is a senior fellow scientist at Chevron Phillips Chemical, where he has been responsible for significant advances in catalyst technologies for the polymerization and trimerization of ethylene, to produce high performance polyethylene and 1-hexene. In 2024 he was awarded his 500th U.S. patent.
Leading a small group of researchers for 40 years, he invented and commercialized numerous new chromium and metallocene based catalyst technologies which have been adopted by dozens of polyethylene manufacturing plants throughout the world. Notably, he was the first scientist to investigate the ability of chromium catalysts to impart long chain branching (LCB) in polyethylene, and the important role that the catalyst physical structure plays in that process.
McDaniel devised catalysts to simultaneously produce comonomer and copolymer. LCB controls nearly every aspect of polymer processing and molding behavior. His discoveries led to the manipulation and development of many diverse polyethylene grades with both improved properties and processability.
McDaniel received a bachelor’s degree in chemistry from Southern Illinois University and received his doctorate in physical chemistry from Northwestern University. After receiving his doctorate, he continued research as a chercheur associé at the Institut de Recherches sur la Catalyse et l’Environnement (IRCELYON) in Lyon, France.

Labor urged to act on released detainees after visa breaches
Labor is under pressure to apply for preventative detention orders to put high-risk immigration detainees released by a controversial High Court decision back behind bars, after three of the men were charged with breaching visa conditions in a single week.
More than six months since the federal government passed emergency laws allowing it to apply to the courts for released detainees deemed at significant risk of reoffending to be taken of the streets, not one application has been made.
Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has also continued to stand by Home Affairs Minister Clare O'Neil and Immigration Minister Andrew Giles amid calls from the Opposition for their resignations over the repeated bungled handling of the release of 153 non-citizens previously convicted of serious crimes.
Opposition Leader Peter Dutton said all the detainee issues could be traced back to Ms O'Neil and Mr Giles.
"I don't see how either of them can survive," he said.
On Thursday, Australian Federal Police announced officers had arrested a Burundiborn man in Perth and charged the 42-year-old with five counts of failing to comply with a curfew condition and one of failing to keep a monitoring device in order.
Earlier this week a 31-year-old Afghanistan-born man was arrested in Brisbane and charged with two counts of failing to comply with curfew conditions attached to his visa.
Also this week, the AFP charged a 45-year-old Sudanese man in Melbourne with three counts of failing to comply with curfew and one of failing to ensure his monitoring device was in good order.
Since December there have been more than a dozen instances of released detainees charged with alleged visa breaches related to either curfew conditions or electronic monitoring failures.
Opposition Home Affairs spokesman James Paterson said in the wake of former immigration detainee Majid Jamshidi Doukoshkan being charged over the alleged violent bashing of a Perth grandmother and theft of $200,000 worth of jewellery from her home this week, the government must act now to lock up other high-risk ex-detainees.
"Not one murderer, not one sex offender, not one violent assaulter has been taken off the streets using (preventative detention) powers," he said.
Mr Paterson said Labor also must ensure all of the released detainees were wearing ankle monitors, after it was revealed Doukoshkan had been allowed to take his off.
Mr Albanese initially pointed to state bail schemes when asked about Doukoshkan's ankle monitor, but pushed on why the Commonwealth's own Community Protection Board had actually made the recommendation for it to be removed, he declined to weigh in.
"It's not appropriate for me to comment on individual cases," he said.

Bill (Alex Winter) and Ted (Keanu Reeves) are two high school kids living in San Dimas, California. They also want to play in their rock band “The Wyld Stallyns”. They are also not very bright and might fail their history course which would mean having failed school entirely. But they’re also the hope of the planet for a better future which is why Rufus (the excellent George Carlin) travels back in time help them with their history report. With a time travel phone booth they get historic figures like Napoleon and Sigmund Freud and take them to San Dimas where all hell breaks loose.
This so is a movie of the 1980s. It’s bold, funny, over the top but with a big heart and this special vibe that somehow got lost during the 1990s. God knows why I keep going back to those movies but it’s great fun whenever I do. If you have not seen this movie, go watch it and dive into a time when movies didn’t always have to make sense and nobody cared. Be excellent to each other and party on dudes! | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
While we may be best known for field service, where technicians travel to customer facilities and provide on-site service, that’s only part of our service capabilities. At our Indianapolis shop, centrifuge equipment comes to us. We take on the big, the bad, and the ugly. Watch the video to meet a few members of our team and get a tour of our shop.
At our shop, we’re able to provide types of centrifuge service that aren’t possible out in the field. Services that require specialized tools and equipment, services that require a team of skilled individuals to complete. Some examples of shop services are:
All in all, if a centrifuge requires it, our shop can provide it.
“We’re constantly looking for new ways to improve, whether that be having a part made in our shop because we can’t get it for 14 weeks brand new, sometimes it’s going to the warehouse, finding something used, and sometimes it’s just helping a customer out in an emergency situation.”
Sometimes, equipment shows up in pretty rough shape, but the way equipment looks on the way in can be almost indistinguishable from the way it looks on the way out.
“I mean, it’s amazing what we can do in the shop.”
Regardless of what our customers need, and whether their need is catastrophic to minor, we have the team members, equipment and capabilities to provide any type of centrifuge service. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

But this is the feature of buy now, pay later that worries experts the most because it can lead to “loan-stacking” — when consumers take on debt with multiple lenders. Often, B2B customer relationships are the backbone of sustainable growth. The better partnerships you’re able to build with your B2B clients, the more likely they are to stay with your company over a competitor. It’s also important to consider potential issues and setbacks that you may encounter when using Net 30 payment terms. 8 Lili does not charge debit card fees related to foreign transactions, overdraft, in-network ATM usage, or card inactivity, or require a minimum balance.
However, Billdu can help you accomplish this, and your business can grow because of it. Depending on your business, you might be able to get away with creating general invoice terms and conditions that apply to all your clients. However, creating individual T&Cs for each customer can be worthwhile to make your cooperation as smooth as possible. If you have a client who regularly pays late, talk to them to find out what the holdup is without putting any unnecessary pressure on them. When you send a new invoice to a customer, it should include all the information they require to pay you accurately and on time. It’s crucial to negotiate your payment terms with your customer before you begin work.
Accounting Payment Terms and How to Work With Them
Creating an invoice as soon as possible prevents payment delays and interruptions. Especially with date-specific and time-sensitive payment terms, sending an invoice to a client immediately is essential. Interest rates on mortgages fluctuate all the time, but a rate lock allows business payment terms you to lock in your current rate for a set amount of time. This ensures you get the rate you want as you complete the homebuying process. Interest rates tend to rise in periods of high inflation, whereas they tend to drop or remain roughly the same in times of low inflation.
Traditionally, 30 days was given for most payments, but this is changing. Choosing a shorter term such as one week creates a greater sense of urgency and reduces the time it takes you to get paid. Plus, including payment terms helps you stay in control of the billing process. When you know when invoices are due, you also know when payments are late.
How to calculate your capital gains tax bracket
Even slightly shorter payment periods, like 15 or 21 days, can make a big difference in cash flow. And for retail, hospitality and leisure businesses we have introduced a one year 75% discount on business rates up to £110,000. These measures have saved the average independent shop over £20,000. It is not possible to continue with temporary support measures forever. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
Working While Receiving Your Pension
You're able to work as an SFPP pensioner without any impact on your payments. Working or contributing to a different pension plan won't change your SFPP pension amount.
If you're collecting your SFPP pension and go back to work for an SFPP employer, you won't be able to make further contributions to the Plan.
Working while collecting an SFPP pension, or receiving income from other sources such as government pensions, may require you to consider requesting additional tax be taken off your SFPP pension payment to avoid owing money at tax time. More about that here. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

Shearer Candles FAQ Blog
Q:Are candles harmful to the environment?
A: We don’t believe so. Paraffin, beeswax and natural wax are all natural products.
Paraffin is a by-product of the petroleum production. A fossil fuel, petroleum is formed when large quantities of dead organisms are buried underneath sedimentary rock and subjected to intense heat and pressure. There were stories in the media in 2009 claiming paraffin wax candles had potential to emit toxins but these stories need taken with a pinch of salt.
We simply wouldn't use paraffin wax if we felt it was in anyway dangerous to you or us.
Whether you believe the oil is harmful to the environment is a personal choice. The oil is being extracted for other uses, the paraffin wax we use is a by-product of that.
If you are uncomfortable with paraffin wax there are alternatives. Natural wax is a blend of soy wax and palm wax. Soy wax is made from soy beans, the soy bean is an edible bean grown throughout the world, and the soy wax is extracted from the soybean. Palm oil is extracted from the edible fruit of the oil palm. There has been controversy over palm oil production with regards to the clearing of jungle areas to make way for farms. Our palm oil is all ethically sourced and meets RSPO standards of which we are members - http://www.rspo.org/en/member/1127
Our beeswax candles are made from a mixtures of beeswax and paraffin wax. Beeswax candles are about as environmentally friendly as you can get - made of course from bees wax so entirely natural. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

Fibroids are tiny growths that develop in your uterus for various reasons. About 20-50% of women of childbearing age have fibroids, and up to 77% develop them at some point. Fibroids are made of fibrous connective tissues and smooth muscle cells. They may not bother you; in more than 99% of cases, they aren’t cancerous.
However, if you struggle with bothersome symptoms, treatment of the fibroids offers you relief.
The hallmark symptoms of fibroids include:
You may also experience pain during intercourse, infertility, or pregnancy complications due to untreated fibroids. It’s common to have more than one symptom because of fibroids. If you experience severe symptoms, contact your OB/GYN specialist right away.
The causes and risk factors for developing fibroids include:
However, the exact cause of fibroids isn’t always clear, and anyone can develop them. Eating nutritious foods, exercising regularly, and maintaining an ideal body weight may reduce your risk of developing fibroids.
Your provider often diagnoses fibroids during routine pelvic exams in women. They press on your abdomen to feel for firm, irregular masses. They may also recommend blood testing, a pelvic ultrasound, an MRI, or a hysteroscopy to obtain a detailed view of the inside of your pelvic area.
Depending on the size of the fibroids, the severity of your symptoms, and your preference for having children in the future, the OB/GYN team may suggest one or more of the following treatments:
They tailor each treatment to your needs and goals, always giving you a voice in your care plan.
To determine if you have fibroids or achieve symptom relief, schedule an appointment at Dr. Gregory Shifrin OBGYN PC by phone or online today. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
