In Part 1 of my trip I talked about the process of getting to Brazil and went over the first day of the media trip. I had just spent my one and only night in Brazil, and was in the hotel lobby at 4:30am local time to start day two. Bring it!
At this point, I was definitely feeling the lack of sleep. I had used all the coffee packets in my hotel room. The first thing of the day was for us to head to Sao Paulo’s secondary airport, Congonhas-São Paulo Airport (CGH), which was only 15 minutes away from the hotel. Our destination? Leite Lopes Airport (RAO), then about an hour’s drive to TAM’s Museum and Maintenance facility (MRO).
This was exciting for me for a number of reasons. First off, just being able to see the Museum and MRO, of course. But also, this was going to be the first time that I had ever flown on a non-US domestic flight. It seemed weird to me and thinking about it at 5am, I thought that I might had missed a memory, but nope, this was the first time and something to check off the ol’ AvGeek to-do list.
CGH is a small airport. This made it easy to get checked in and to our gate. Originally the flight was to depart from a remote gate, meaning boarding from the tarmac (yay), but at the last minute, it was changed to a real gate (boo). TAM originally had us three journalists (me, Jason Rabinowitz and Cynthia Drescher) seated together. No good. Not that we don’t like each other (we actually get along quite lovely), however we each wanted out own window seats. Luckily the flight was not that booked and we made it happen.

Not Just Garbage
Winner of First Prize Documentary at the USA Film Festival, this whimsical portrait of the Official Artist-In-Residence at the New York City Department of Sanitation has been warmly received by audiences nationwide.
"Video maker Julie Akeret captures Ukeles' original means of expression beautifully. It takes guts to make films about maintenance artists and garbage."
In Defense Of Animals
What Martin Luther King is to civil rights and Gloria Steinem to women's rights, Austrailian philosopher Peter Singer is to animal rights. This thought-provoking documentary presents the clear and rational arguments that form the underpinnings of this growing movement.
"A clear and persuasive profile of the founding father of a significant movement, In Defense of Animals is a very importat acquisition for library collections."

Sharing Stories: Polish Life in Our Valley
In May, 2004, Springfield, Mass. PBS station WGBY broadcast this documentary produced and directed by Julie Akeret. It was commissioned by the station to serve as the centerpiece of the station's spring fund drive. The piece portrays the vibrant Polish community in the Connecticut River Valley, examining the various waves of immigration, the overlooked stories from World War II, and how the arts and religion help to preserve the sense of community among Polish-Americans.
Looking for Common Ground
A town is split by the divisive issue of gay and lesbian rights at a rural high school in Western Massachusetts. This piece is a document of what the people on the front lines of the battle are thinking and saying about this issue.
"This well balanced video encourages both sides of this divisive debate to listen to and respect one another's position in the interest of our children's well-being."

Government mail service may be affected by the Canada Post labour disruption. See how to send and receive government mail during this time.
Under the Alberta Health Act and the Mental Health Act, the Office of the Alberta Health Advocates has the authority to investigate complaints.
The Health Advocate has authority, under the Alberta Health Act, to review situations where someone is believed to have acted in a manner that is inconsistent with the principles set out in the Alberta Health Charter.
The Mental Health Advocate has authority, under the Mental Health Act, to investigate complaints about a patient who is or has been under one or two admission certificates or renewal certificates, or subject to a community treatment order.
If a complaint does not fall under our jurisdiction, a referral may be made to another body to assist.
We recommend people make an effort to deal with a concern at the time it arises. It is helpful to first approach those directly involved to seek resolution. Many concerns arise out of miscommunications between patients, families and the providers involved.
For the most part, concerns can often be resolved if the issue is raised directly with the people involved in a respectful manner and with an open mind to finding a resolution. However, we understand that there are times when it is necessary to reach out for assistance from third parties, such as the Advocates.
We will look for ways of assisting you to become empowered to handle your concerns on your own. However, where our jurisdiction allows, we will take your complaint and assist you as best we can.
Learn about your rights: one-admission certificate, formal patient or a community treatment order.
Health system complaints
The Health Advocate assists people to find their way to the appropriate place to address their concerns about their experience in Alberta’s heath care system.
When you contact our office, an Advocate representative will work with you to determine the best way to resolve your concern. The representative may refer you to another agency, program or service, provide you with information, or determine if your concern may be reviewed by the Health Advocate.
In some cases, the Health Advocate may conduct a review, with or without a complaint, into situations where it is believed that someone has failed to act in a manner consistent with the Health Charter.
Mental health complaints
Under the Mental Health Act, patients, or those acting on their behalf, who are or have been under one or two admission certificates or renewal certificates, or subject to a community treatment order, may contact the Mental Health Advocate if they have a complaint. If the complaint does not fall under our jurisdiction or falls under the jurisdiction of another committee, body or person, a referral may be made to that committee, body or person to assist.
The Advocate may further investigate a complaint. Most complaints brought to our attention can be resolved through informal investigation or with the consent of the complainant resolved without conducting an investigation.
Formal investigations are ones that cannot be easily resolved. Only the Mental Health Advocate may authorize a formal investigation.
All information about an investigation is documented and remains confidential as required by law.

The celebration of the eighth anniversary of the Local Democracy Agency Mostar was held in Mostar, on Wednesday 28 November.
Since 22nd November 2004, when LDA’s partners signed the Partnership Agreement with the representatives of Mostar City local authorities, their common vision of a Local Democracy Agency was founded on an idea for it to be a place of mediation, room for dialogue and exchange of information and experiences on all levels of local community and European partners.
During these past eight years LDA Mostar tried to meet those expectations.
“We built bridges between the citizens of a divided city, unfortunately still in many different ways, bridges between the citizens and local authorities, worked on linking City of Mostar with other cities of the region and European Union countries, transferred experiences and knowledge. In some of our activities we were committed to youth, gender issues, European integration, education, but in every step of this road our guide was the voice of the citizens. We consider ourselves lucky and are well pleased that on this road we had a strong support of local authorities, non-governmental organisations, media and citizens of this city, but also in cooperation with our international partners” stated Dzenana Dedic, President of LDA Mostar during the anniversary ceremony.

Online marketplaces are just shopping centers but in digital form. Over the past couple of decades, the digitalization has come to any possible industry, and retail is not an exception. Nowadays, only small local businesses can operate without an online platform. Not every company can afford a designated website just for its products. To be precise, not every company really needs it. Web marketplaces provide a convenient and accessible platform for any business owner to display their products and offer services.
Working with certain online marketplaces is extremely beneficial for businesses as everyone knows about the most popular websites. It is impossible to find a person that did not at least hear about such international sites as Amazon, Walmart, Etsy, eBay, and many others. A good web marketplace comes with credibility and a convenient shopping experience as all the products you might need are collected on the same website and carefully cataloged.
The Advantages of Working with Online Marketplaces
Apart from being a more affordable option than investing in your own website, online marketplaces have many other benefits. In reality, even the most popular international brands use various web markets as their outlets in addition to personalized web pages. Here are some of the key advantages of displaying your products and services on digital marketplaces:
- Brand awareness – investing in SEO is a smart move as your brand will appear on the top searches in Google and other engines. However, to come across your company this way, a client has to be specific in his or her request. Web marketplaces allow attracting many new customers by offering a variety of products in one place. Besides, top tier market websites have already earned the loyalty of their customers, and now, you can benefit from them as well.
- Diversifying client base – each company is usually aiming at certain demographics while offering its products and services. A loyal client base brings the most of the revenue as opposed to one-time customers. However, digital marketplaces attract clients from all possible demographics, which results in widening your own clientele.
- Convenient management solutions – modern digital markets offer a wide selection of handy tools for your product management. Often, these marketplaces can take shipping responsibilities and facilitate other processes for you. The more platforms you will utilize, the more brand awareness and profits you will receive. There are also various convenient tools for managing multiple online marketplaces without adding all the product info and other data manually to each one.
Developing a Modern Digital Marketplace
Collaborating with online marketplaces is always beneficial for businesses of different scales. But creating and managing your own platform for multiple vendors is also extremely profitable. Vendors do not usually work with retail platforms for free. There is always a certain percentage of their sales or other fees that go to the owner of the marketplace.
Creating a web marketplace is a difficult task. Developing a website for a single brand is challenging, and this process requires special skills to have a high-quality finished product. To create a retail platform for several companies, you will need a skilled team of professional developers (https://agilie.com/en/services/web-and-mobile-marketplace-development).
Agilie is a website development team that specializes in developing various digital solutions for businesses and online marketplaces specifically. These professionals have many years of experience in creating web and mobile retail platforms for various industries. Designing a successful online marketplace is a meticulous process that requires a lot of special training and skill in market analysis, web design, mobile development, etc. That is why Agilie is here to help. Teaming up with a high-quality and reliable development company will ensure a successful finished website and technical support afterward.

Iran says Hezbollah is capable of defending itself and Lebanon, warning Israel that it would be the “ultimate loser” in an all-out war with the Lebanese armed group.
Tehran’s statement on Friday came as fears of a major Israeli offensive in Lebanon continued to mount.
“Any imprudent decision by the occupying Israeli regime to save itself could plunge the region into a new war, the consequence of which would be the destruction of Lebanon’s infrastructure as well as that of the 1948 occupied territories,” Iran’s mission to the United Nations said in a social media post.
“Undoubtedly, this war will have one ultimate loser, which is the Zionist regime. The Lebanese Resistance Movement, Hezbollah, has the capability to defend itself and Lebanon – perhaps the time for the self-annihilation of this illegitimate regime has come.”
Israel also issued a threat to Iran-aligned Hezbollah on Friday with Foreign Minister Israel Katz saying “soon we will make the necessary decisions” about confronting the Lebanese group.
“The free world must unconditionally stand with Israel in its war against the axis of evil led by Iran and extremist Islam. Our war is also your war,” Katz said.
Israel cannot allow the Hezbollah terror organization to continue attacking its territory and citizens, and soon we will make the necessary decisions. The free world must unconditionally stand with Israel in its war against the axis of evil led by Iran and extremist Islam. Our…

Hezbollah chief Hassan Nasrallah said this week that if the Israeli military goes to war in Lebanon, his group will use its rockets and drones to hit targets across the entire territory of Israel. He warned Hezbollah would wage a war with “no restraint and no rules and no ceilings”.
Nasrallah also issued a threat to Cyprus, a European Union member that sits in the eastern Mediterranean west of the Lebanese and Israeli coasts. He said the group has information that Israel is conducting military exercises in Cyprus in terrain similar to southern Lebanon.
Nasrallah added that Israel plans to use airports and bases in Cyprus for military purposes if its own infrastructure is targeted during a serious war.
“Opening Cypriot airports and bases for the Israeli enemy to target Lebanon means the Cypriot government has become part of the war, and the resistance will deal with it as part of the war,” he said without elaborating.
Cyprus said Nasrallah’s threat is not grounded in reality, stressing the country enjoys great relations with Lebanon.
Still, the Hezbollah statement exacerbated concerns about an even larger regional war that could spill beyond Lebanon’s borders and pull Iran-allied groups – if not Tehran itself – as well as the United States into the conflict.
Hezbollah started attacking military bases in northern Israel the day after the outbreak of the war on Gaza on October 7 in what it says is a “support front” to back Palestinian groups. Israel responded by bombing southern Lebanese villages and Hezbollah positions.
While the near-daily clashes have displaced tens of thousands of people in Lebanon and Israel, they have been largely contained to the border areas.
But the violence has escalated in recent weeks, especially after an Israeli air raid killed a top Hezbollah commander in southern Lebanon last week.
On Friday, Hezbollah claimed several military operations against Israel, including a drone attack it said targeted Israeli forces at a coastal base on the western side of the border.
The US has pushed for a diplomatic resolution to the crisis while expressing concern about Hezbollah’s attacks. “We have made quite clear we do not want to see escalation of this conflict,” Department of State spokesperson Matthew Miller told reporters on Thursday.
For its part, Hezbollah has said it will continue operations against the Israeli military until Israel ends its war in Gaza, which has killed more than 37,000 Palestinians.

A 1 oz tin of our Artist Use Salve.
It's the perfect size for air travel.
*We recommend the 4 oz tub for larger tattoos, or if you are planning on several.
Artists... Contact us about our distribution program for distributor pricing on this, and sell to your clients after a session to ensure the best tattoo experience possible!
The difference between the Ultimate Healing Salve and the Artists Salve is that the Ultimate Healing Salve doesn't contain Arrowroot powder (which is preferable to have during the tattoing process). This allows the salve to remain longer on the skin before fully absorbing, and as a tattoo is essentially a healing wound, the longer the salve barrier remains, the less you need to touch it to reapply.
Both products contain 400mg of CBG and CBG, which make the tattooing experience far more comfortable, reduces both discomfort and time for healing time, will provide the ultimate retention of ink for years to come.
WHY ALPHA SALVE DOMINATES THE OTHER BRANDS
There are some impressive differences you'll notice between Alpha Salve and other brands. CBD and CBG have phenominal therapeutic benefits on their own. Both compounds interact with the body's endocannabinoid system (ECS), which is a system of receptors that are found throughout the body and play a role in regulating various functions, including sleep, appetite, and pain sensation.
By itself, CBD is known for its therapeutic benefits, such as reducing anxiety and inflammation, as well as its ability to help with certain types of pain.
By itself, CBG inhibits the uptake of GABA, which is a neurotransmitter that helps regulate the nervous system, and helps reduce inflammation.
But when CBD and CBG are combined it produces a greater effect than when used alone, known as the Entourage Effect, which enhances their benefits by working together to improve the absorption of each other and also by modulating the receptors in the body.

Let's explore five features that could potentially be a waste of money, helping you make smarter choices for your future home.
1. Large Yard:
While a spacious yard can be appealing, it's essential to consider the associated costs and maintenance needs. A large yard often requires additional resources and time to maintain, such as mowing, landscaping, and irrigation. These expenses can add up over time, potentially straining your budget. Instead, think about how much outdoor space you genuinely need and consider finding a balance that suits your lifestyle without breaking the bank.
2. Short Commute:
Having a short commute to work is undoubtedly desirable, but it's essential to evaluate the long-term benefits against the added costs. Homes located closer to city centers or business districts tend to come with a higher price tag. Consider whether the savings in commuting time and expenses justify the premium you may have to pay. In some cases, a slightly longer commute from a more affordable neighborhood could provide substantial cost savings without sacrificing convenience.
3. Single-Story Homes:
Single-story homes are popular among buyers seeking convenience and accessibility. However, wide, single-story homes are a premium compared to multi-story houses. If you don't have specific mobility needs or preferences, it might be more cost-effective to consider a two-story home. This option can offer you more square footage at a lower price per square foot, giving you additional living space without exceeding your budget.
4. Too Much House:
Sometimes, the allure of a large, spacious house can be tempting. However, it's crucial to consider whether you genuinely need all that extra space. Oversized homes typically come with higher purchase prices, increased property taxes, and higher utility bills. Additionally, more substantial homes require more time and money to maintain. Assess your actual needs and prioritize functionality over sheer size to avoid unnecessary financial strain.
5. High-End Upgrades:
Luxurious upgrades such as high-end appliances, custom cabinetry, or premium finishes can significantly impact the cost of a new home. While these features may be visually appealing, it's essential to weigh their value against their added expense. Remember, you can always make upgrades over time as your budget allows. Prioritize the essential aspects of your home, such as structural integrity and functionality, rather than getting caught up in extravagant upgrades that may not provide a substantial return on investment.
When buying a new home, it's crucial to be mindful of your budget and make informed decisions that align with your long-term goals. As a mortgage professional, I encourage you to carefully evaluate the potential pitfalls of certain home features that may not provide significant value for your investment.
Consider the costs, maintenance requirements, and your actual needs to ensure a financially sound decision. By focusing on functionality and avoiding unnecessary expenses, you can find a home that fits your lifestyle and budget, providing you with long-term satisfaction and financial stability.

I grew up in Oregon and loved that state. Over the past few decades, the state has changed politically and quite dramatically.
They have effectively, like California, banned or are attempting to ban most methods of small mining in the state. Now they are requiring permits for pollution when dredges actually remove pollutants from the water (net reduction). What comes off the end of a dredge is called “incidental fallback” and is cleaner after it runs across a sluice than when it was shoveled, or sucked up with a suction nozzle.
But the state is requiring NPDES permits anyway.
At some point you all either get in this fight, get off your couch and quit complaining to your computer or you’ll lose even the ability to camp on public lands. Think we are kidding? We’re not.
An excerpt from Oregon.gov on permitting for mining:
“”Applicants should plan on at least six months for permit processing in advance of operating under a new or renewed permit. In addition to the application fee and first year annual fee (when required), applicants must submit a complete individual NPDES permit application at least 180 days (or more) in advance of the date to start operating. Incomplete applications will be returned.
DEQ’s permit administration process requires a public comment period of 35 days and will likely require a public hearing with a minimum of 30 days advance notification. If DEQ determines that additional information or measures are needed, there will be an additional 90 days or more added to the process period.””

South Daytona, Florida –-(Ammoland.com)-At least 4 bullets were fired through the windows of the Volusia County Republican headquarters late Sunday night or early Monday morning.
At the time of the shooting, no one was in the building. Workers arrived Monday morning to find the windows shot out of the South Daytona building. The shooting happened on the same day that gubernatorial candidate Ron DeSantis was scheduled to visit the location.
“I’m angry. I’m mad — I mean Ron DeSantis is coming here today. I don’t know if they are trying to send a message to Ron, but I’ve notified the campaign that we’ve had this incident here,” Tony Ledbetter, Volusia County Republican Chair told WFTV, the local ABC affiliate.
South Daytona Police are investigating the incident that left shattered glass on the sidewalk of the Nova Fountain strip mall according to Police Captain Mark Cheatham. Police will step up patrols around the area to prevent a repeat of the shooting incident.
There is a tightly contested race for the Governors seat in Florida between Republican Ron DeSantis and Democrat Andrew Gillum. The incumbent Republican Governor Rick Scott is in his second term and cannot run again due to term limitations in Florida.
Political violence is on the rise across the country. In 2017 James Hodgkinson, who was a radical leftist, shot up a Congressional softball practice. The shooting ended in the wounding Republican Congressman Steve Scalise. Earlier this year the Republican Party office in Laramie, Wyoming was set on fire.
Republican workers believe that this attack was politically motivated. The shooter did not shoot up any neighboring businesses. Both Democrats and Republicans have condemned the attack.
“Glad everyone at the Volusia County Republican headquarters is okay and that no one was inside when the shooting happened. Violence of any kind does not belong in our state and I appreciate law enforcement’s quick response to keep these Floridians safe,” Governor Rick Scott said in a Tweet.
Democratic State Representative Patrick Henry emailed out a statement that read:
“After one of the deadliest and most violent weeks in America, I’m disheartened and angry to learn that shots were fired at a Republican Party office in my district.”
The Florida Democratic Party did not share Henry’s sentiment. They seemed to deflect any idea that it was a Democrat that lashed out at the Republican’s headquarters.
“Our reaction is it’s appalling,” Jewel Dickson, the Volusia Democratic Party chair said of the shooting. “It’s a sign of things going wrong. I would not be quick to blame a Democrat for doing that. It could be anybody angry.”
Police are checking security camera from surrounding business to see if they can find any identifiable information about the shooter or shooters. Police are also asking for any witnesses to come forward with any knowledge of who did the shooting.
Police could charge the perpetrators of the shooting of a hate crime. Committing a crime in Florida against someone for political reasons is considered a hate crime under the law .
Police do not have any suspects at this time but are asking anyone with information to come forward.

A wedding is amongst the most important and greatest events of a person’s life. Considering there are so many memories to capture, many couples turn to professional photographers to commemorate these special moments. That said, encapsulating every lasting image can be time-consuming and often requires planning in advance.
We invite couples soon to marry or any other interested parties to read the following blog offering tips on how to properly maximize wedding photography and ensure the images captured are the best they can be.
1. Designate A Preparation Room
For couples holding the affair inside a hotel or banquet hall, one room should be designated for preparation. The wedding parties are encouraged to carefully lay out all items they wish to be photographed such as:
- Floral arrangements
Organizing a preparation room saves both the wedding party and photographer time and reduces the risk of disorganization. Either a member of the facility staff or a designee from the wedding party could be assigned to make sure the room is clean and that abundant space is cleared.
2. Maximize Window Light
As the bride or groom dons formal attire, window light in the getting ready room typically provides the best lighting for optimal photos.
3. Use Pretty Hangers
Personalized your hanger with your new last name, couple’s initials or opt for gold hangers that match your chic style. The right wedding dress hanger will standout in your bridal suite photos and double as a great keepsake.
4. Proceed Down The Aisle Slowly
As the bride makes her way down the aisle, she is advised to proceed at a deliberate pace. Walking slowly will enable photographers to not only capture more images but improve the focus on such shots. Additionally, members of the bridal party are encouraged to step down the aisle at a deliberate rate.
5. Make The First Kiss Last
Once the ceremony is completed, the bride and groom’s first kiss should last at least three seconds. This gives photographers enough time to narrow the camera’s focus and properly capture this special moment.
6. Enable Ring Exchange Visibility
As the bride and groom exchange rings, they are encouraged to not allow their hand or any other part of their body to obstruct view of their partner’s hand. Doing so will make it difficult if not impossible for a photographer to capture this event.
7. Instruct Guests To Be Courteous
It is understandable that a wedding precipitates enthusiasm and guests might wish to join in on the photos. However, guests continually jumping in the fray can disturb a photo’s ambience. Instead opt for an unplugged ceremony without the distraction of their phone and/or camera, your guests will be free to immerse themselves in the experience and remember your ceremony better.
8. Plan Ahead
Family portraits often include many people and locating the appropriate place to capture these images could require time and planning. The bride and groom might opt to work in tandem with their photographer to designate the best time and place for said event to occur.
9. Arranging The Photographs
Wedding parties are advised to bestow the responsibility of informing those be included in the family portraits the times and locations the portraits are to be taken.
10. Keep Pockets Clear
The groom, groomsmen or any other family members donning clothing with pockets are encouraged to keep their pockets clear during family photo sessions. Items to be removed include:
- Vehicle or house keys
- Mobile phones
- Any other items that could protrude out and be seen
Prior to the photo session, these items could be placed in a designated box or other place for safekeeping.
11. Simplify Formal Dances
When the bride and groom or other close family members are sharing formal dances, disc jockeys are encouraged to avoid using laser lightshows or any other technical augmentation that could obstruct or minimize these special images.
12. Keep The Photographer Informed
The bride or groom is advised to notify the disc jockey or masters of ceremony to let the photographer know several minutes in advance of any special or noteworthy event. Doing so gives the photographer time to set up.

From the 1888 Press Release “InsuranceAgents.com Publishes a Guide to Tax Deferred Annuity,” investors can see the basics and benefits of tax deferred annuities. Tax deferred products may be the best annuities for you as an investor. The products allow investors’ wealth to accumulate tax free, building a solid nest egg for their future. Unlike other investments like stocks, bonds, mutual funds or CDs, annuities offer investors a guaranteed stream of lifetime income.
There are three different types of tax deferred annuities which are fixed, variable, and indexed. A fixed annuity product guarantees the investors’ rate of return over time. Variable annuities do not offer that guaranteed rate, but are subject to market changes and offer the possibility of higher rates of return over the time the account is accumulating. Indexed annuities are like a combination of the first two types of tax deferred annuities. The rate changes periodically based on the market indexes. It is wise to speak with a financial professional to determine which type of tax deferred annuity is best for you.

This $200K Vermont Earthship Home Has Tires for Walls
With the housing market still wild in many places, people are scooping up homes for under $200,000 like nobody’s business. But one home in Vermont has been on the market for nearly two months, and that may have to do with the fact that all the walls are rubber tires.
The house located at 115 Dukes Road in Johnson, Vermont, is an Earthship home, meaning it’s completely off-grid, made with recycled materials, and designed in a way to self-regulate temperature. Many Earthship homes are similarly built compared to this one, but the house at 115 Dukes Road is a bit more rough around the edges than other Earthship houses you may have seen.
“No interior walls here, just your packed-earth tires and your concrete slab floor,” the creator behind the Zillowtastrophes Instagram account said in a recent video. “Most of this is fine, but the bathroom is a real problem for me.”
The toilet is situated in front of a huge window and the clawfoot tub in front of a tire wall is not something you see every day.
“This was a weekend project,” one person commented on the Zillowtastrophes post. Another added, “If found footage was a house.”
“I can smell the tire-y interior from here,” another commenter added. And honestly, that’s a bigger problem than you might think.
Many Earthships use tires as a foundation, but some countries have actually banned the use of tires in Earthship houses due to potential “off-gassing,” which could make the interior of these homes toxic. Although tire safety is still a debated topic in the community, those who have used tires in their builds have covered them in some sort of other material to make the house more homey and to prevent off-gassing altogether — a step that this house in Vermont has skipped.
Surely someone can breathe new life into this house and turn it into one of those Earthships you’ve seen on Pinterest. But you won’t be blamed if you grow a bit too tired just looking at it.

WASHINGTON — Republicans will have a wide runway to confirm conservative federal judges and fill any openings on the Supreme Court in the new Congress, with Donald Trump set to return to the White House and a GOP majority in the Senate.
The shift in power from Tuesday’s election will give the 78-year-old Trump an opportunity to add to the 234 lifetime judicial appointments he secured during his first term and further cement his influence on the federal courts.
Trump will likely find a strong ally in Senate Republicans, who have made judicial confirmations a priority and now obtained at least a 52-seat majority, with several Senate races yet to be called.
A bolstered Senate majority would allow Republican leadership to sidestep any objections from more moderate members of their conference, such as Susan Collins, R-Maine, or Lisa Murkowski, R-Alaska.
Casey Burgat, director of the legislative affairs program at George Washington University’s Graduate School of Political Management, said the presidential win and the Senate GOP majority is a chance to appoint a new generation of Trump judges.
“Given his second term and the sizable majority within the Senate, they’re going to fill those seats, and they’re going to do it quickly,” he said.
John P. Collins Jr., a law professor at George Washington University, said that when it’s all said and done, Trump could be responsible for appointing half of the federal judiciary.
The Trump victory also could give the GOP opportunities to solidify conservative control on the Supreme Court, if Republican-appointed Justices Samuel A. Alito Jr. and Clarence Thomas decide to retire. Both are in their mid-70s.
“I would bet the farm that both Alito and Thomas will step down in the next year or two, and Donald Trump will get to appoint their replacement,” Collins said, adding those successors will be at least as conservative “but 30 years younger.”
During his first term, Trump appointed three justices to the Supreme Court.
At the lower levels, judicial nominees during Trump’s first term were “significantly” more conservative than prior Republican administrations, Collins said, and the individuals were much more homogenous in terms of race — often white and male — and experience compared to Biden nominees.
Collins forecasted that second-term Trump nominees will be more conservative compared to his first term, as it appears the former president has not kept a strong relationship with the mainstream conservative legal movement represented by organizations like The Federalist Society.
Sen. Charles E. Grassley, the 91-year-old Iowa Republican who plans to be chairman of the Judiciary Committee in the new year, posted on social media Wednesday that he looked forward to working with Trump on confirming judges, along with issues such as reducing crime and border security.
“In the Republican Senate Majority Ill be hard at work fighting 2 restore law&order + make America SAFE again esp thru my leadership on the Judic Cmte We will hit the ground running on Jan 3,” Grassley posted on X, the site formerly known as Twitter.
A spokesperson for Grassley said in a statement that the senator “has a proven track record of success, having confirmed an historic number of constitutionally-sound judges, and he continues to set the gold standard for oversight and investigation.”
Grassley led the panel for four years across the Obama and Trump administrations, during which he played a role in establishing the current conservative-controlled Supreme Court bench by helping to stall then-judge Merrick B. Garland’s nomination and later overseeing the nominations of Justices Neil M. Gorsuch and Brett M. Kavanaugh.
The conservative court in recent years has overturned the constitutional right to an abortion, ruled presidents are immune from federal prosecution for official acts and curtailed the power of federal agencies to implement laws passed by Congress.

Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, another Christian arrested for blasphemy. The 42nd in a month
David Masih is accused of ripping pages from the Quran and throwing them down a drain. The crime of blasphemy is punished with life imprisonment and in some cases with the death sentence. The story of Asia Bibi. At least 80 people, of different faiths, are detained on this charge.
Nowshera (AsiaNews) - On 30 August a Pakistani Christian was arrested on charges of blasphemy in Nowshera (Khyber Pakhtunkhwa). It is the 42nd case of its kind recorded in August in the country, a real record according to the Naya Daur (New Era) website.
David Masih's arrest occurred three days after a video - which went viral – was posted on social media showing pages of the Koran being thrown down a drain. Reported to the police by some Muslim inhabitants of his neighbourhood, he allegedly confessed to having torn the pages "to practice witchcraft".
The Pakistani Penal Code states that "anyone who intentionally defiles, damages or desecrates a copy of the Holy Quran or an extract from it, or uses it in a derogatory manner or for any illegal purpose, will be punished with life imprisonment". In the case of defamation of the Prophet Muhammad (section 295-C), the death sentence is foreseen.
Since 1987, when Pakistan added sections 295-B and 295-C to the blasphemy law, the number of arrests for this crime has increased. According to the National Commission for Justice and Peace of the Pakistani Bishops' Conference, between 1987 and 2018, 776 Muslims, 505 Ahmadis, 229 Christians and 30 Hindus were accused of blasphemy. A striking case is that of Asia Bibi, a Christian sentenced to death for "insulting the Prophet Mohammed", who remained in prison for nine years before being acquitted of all charges in January 2019.
Shabir Shafqat, head of the Christian National Party says blasphemy remains a highly sensitive issue: accusations of this kind can lead to mass lynchings, violent protests and cases of summary justice. In the case of David Masih, he argues that officials must examine the psychological condition of the accused and organize security so that no incidents occur.
Last June, the Christian National Party staged a protest outside the Karachi Press Club for the release of 24 prisoners accused of blasphemy, held in Punjab prisons. According to Naya Daur, 80 people of different faiths are in Pakistani prisons under this charge: 50% are sentenced to death or life in prison; the rest are awaiting a final verdict from the judges.

March 26, 2020
Late last night, the U.S. Senate unanimously passed (96-0) the third phase of the coronavirus (COVID-19) response relief package. The $2 trillion emergency stimulus package included important provisions supporting the arts sector and creative workforce. The nation's arts and culture industry is experiencing devastating economic losses with closed venues and cancelled performances, exhibitions, and events as a result of the pandemic.
The U.S. House plans to vote on the bill tomorrow morning at 9 a.m. ET and President Trump, who has already signaled his support of the legislation, is expected to sign it into law shortly thereafter.
This vital piece of legislation includes direct support for both nonprofit cultural organizations and state and local arts and humanities agencies, as well as economic relief provisions for independent contractors, "gig economy" workers and artists, entrepreneurs, and small businesses working in the creative economy.
We are thankful to you, the thousands of advocates and state and local arts agencies, who responded to our action alerts these last few weeks. Your advocacy has been effective and many of our policy asks have been addressed. But we know it's not enough and Treasury Secretary Mnuchin acknowledged yesterday at a press conference that he thought this legislation was just a three-month economic solution to help workers and affected industries.
Specifically, the bill includes the following arts-related items to address the continuing damage caused by the COVID-19 virus:
Federal Arts Funding (Note: This is a supplement to their annual appropriations)
- $75 million for the National Endowment for the Arts
- $75 million for the National Endowment for the Humanities
- Special note: Congress accepted our ask to waive matching grant requirements and to waive the requirement for grants to be project-specific. All these new fast-track grants will be for general operating support with no match.
- $75 million for the Corporation for Public Broadcasting
- $50 million for the Institute of Library and Museum Sciences
- $25 million for the Kennedy Center
- $7.5 million for the Smithsonian
- $5 billion for Community Development Block Grants to cities and counties. Arts groups should work directly with their mayors and local economic development offices for grant support.
- $350 billion for Small Business Administration (SBA) emergency loans of up to $10 million for small businesses—including nonprofits (with less than 500 employees), sole proprietors, independent contractors, and self-employed individuals (like individual artists)—to cover payroll costs, mortgage/rent costs, utilities, and other operations. These loans can be forgiven if used for those purposes. This new eligibility has been a key element of the CREATE Act we've been pursuing;
- $10 billion for Emergency Economic Injury Disaster Loans (EIDL) for loans up to $10,000 for small businesses and nonprofits to be used for providing paid sick leave for employees, maintaining payroll, mortgage/rent payments, and other operating costs;
- Expanded Unemployment Insurance (UI) that includes coverage for furloughed workers, freelancers, and "gig economy" workers. The bill also increases UI payments by $600/week for four months, in addition to what one claims under a state unemployment program.
- An "above-the-line" or universal charitable giving incentive for contributions made in 2020 of up to $300. This provision will now allow all non-itemizer taxpayers (close to 90% of all taxpayers) to deduct charitable contributions from their tax return, an incentive previously unavailable to them. Additionally, the stimulus legislation lifts the existing cap on annual contributions for itemizers from 60 percent of adjusted gross income (AGI) to 100 percent of AGI for contributions made in 2020.
The inclusion of these provisions to help nonprofits, the arts sector, and the creative workforce can be attributed, in part, to the incredible grassroots outreach by arts advocates across the country, coordination with national nonprofit coalitions, and Americans for the Arts and Arts Action Fund outreach to Congress and the Trump Administration. It is likely that another stimulus package will be considered by Congress as the economic fallout from the coronavirus adds up across the country - we will need your help again!
Americans for the Arts and the Arts Action Fund will continue to work for increased support for our sector as we deal with this global pandemic. In addition to the continuing damage reports being collected through our national economic snapshot survey and dashboard, our up-to-the-minute COVID-19 Resource Center updates, we're also planning a series of webinars through our ArtsU platform to present experts and guidance to the field to help navigate through these new federal provisions during this challenging time. More to come.

John Deere introduces its 2013 Heavy-Duty Crossover Utility Vehicle (XUV) lineup. Featuring the all-new, fastest, most powerful four-seat Gator available, plus updates to current models.
All New Four-Seat Gator XUV
Outdoor enthusiasts sharing the trail or work site can now transport friends, family and gear in the all-new, heavy-duty XUV 825i S4. The latest addition to the Gator family provides the durability and versatility owners expect around their property or off-road destination.
“The introduction of the XUV 825i S4 is a reflection of the growing popularity of our crossover utility vehicles,” said David Gigandet, marketing manager. “Customers wanted our heavy-duty XUV, in a multi-passenger form that was comfortable and customizable. These new Gators provide an unparalleled balance of performance and work capability for all off-road challenges.”
To allow for extra passengers or needed cargo space, the XUV 825i S4 provides an innovative, convertible rear seat cargo space. Two additional passengers can be transported in the rear seat area that includes a large under-seat storage compartment.
When more cargo room is needed, the rear seat folds down in just seconds providing a flat platform with tie-down points that can hold an additional 200 pounds of payload.
The XUV 825i S4 boasts the proven 50 hp, 812 cc, inline 3-cylinder engine with EFI and dual overhead cams featured in the current 825i. This Gator also has a top-speed of 44 mph and fully locking 4-wheel drive system to quickly traverse all types of terrain.
A best-in-class, fully independent, double wishbone suspension provides 8 inches of wheel travel and up to 11 inches of ground clearance. Power steering, with anti-kickback feature comes standard on these new S4 models providing operators easy vehicle control with only modest effort regardless of conditions.
The durable, composite and metal hybrid cargo box carries on the Gator tradition of superior hauling capability on the S4 models. The large 16.4 cubic feet cargo box has a 1,000 pound payload capacity. It features over 20 integrated tie-down points, a truck-style tailgate and removable sides for a flatbed mode.
The new Heavy-Duty S4 is also available with diesel power. The XUV 855D S4 is powered by a 23 hp, liquid cooled 3-cylinder diesel engine.
2013 XUV Line Updates
The XUV 825i now comes standard with dynamic downhill engine breaking, due to a new tight belt continuous variable transmission (CVT). Plus, a new seven-gallon fuel tank with digital readout on the dash adds 40 percent more fuel capacity and eliminates the analog dial.
The XUV 625i and XUV 855D will also feature these upgrades, as well as the digital display cluster from the 825i as standard equipment. Power steering is now optional for both the 825i and 855D models.
“Constant focus on our customers enables us deliver ongoing improvements like this to our portfolio of XUVs,” said Gigandet.
All Gator XUVs are available in Realtree Hardwoods HD Camo, olive and black or John Deere green and yellow color schemes. There are also more than 100 factory and dealer installed attachments available to customize them.

Wounded Survival Rate Soaring
Wounded Survival Rate Soaring
Several initiatives are combining to push the survival rate for wounded U.S. soldiers in Iraq and Afghanistan to levels never before seen in the history of warfare, said Lt. Gen. Nadja Y. West, U.S. Army surgeon general and commanding general of U.S. Army Medical Command.
West gave the opening and closing remarks at the one-day professional development seminar “Army Medicine Enabling Army Readiness Today and Tomorrow,” hosted by the Association of the U.S. Army’s Institute of Land Warfare. The Hot Topic forum was held in AUSA’s Conference and Event Center in Arlington, Va.
About 92 percent of soldiers wounded in Iraq and Afghanistan have survived, compared to about 75 percent of soldiers wounded in Vietnam. “That’s one of the statistics of which I’m really proud,” West said, adding that credit goes to “the great people out there on the front lines, all the researchers in our organization; it’s really a compilation of efforts.”
West said the high survival rate starts with ensuring first responders in the thick of the action have the best training possible—and those first responders may not necessarily be medics.
“Usually, you have one medic with your platoon or squad,” she said. “But the next person, perhaps an infantryman—or woman—also needs to know what to do for an amputation or a gunshot wound.”
West said all soldiers are now trained in the basic use of tourniquets. “Not only our medics but our soldiers, our nonmedical soldiers, have tourniquets in their kits and know exactly how to put them on,” West said. “That has saved a lot of lives right there.”
West also noted that tourniquet technology has improved. Recently developed junctional tourniquets are more effective in controlling bleeding after certain injuries such as from improvised explosive devices.
Freeze-dried plasma is another development helping to save soldiers’ lives, West said. It doesn’t yet have full approval from the Food and Drug Administration, she said, but some special missions units are already using it.
“All you have to do is reconstitute with water, shake it up and within six minutes, it’s ready to inject,” she said. That’s compared to carrying around heavy IV bags and using “blood that requires special handling, needs refrigeration, and expires after time.”
West said dominant air superiority enables evacuation of wounded soldiers almost at will, but large-scale combat against a near-peer adversary might be a different story.
In that regard, virtual medicine is proving to be beneficial, she said. For example, a medic treating a soldier with a shredded artery who cannot immediately be evacuated can send images to, and interact with, a vascular surgeon hundreds or thousands of miles away and receive virtual instructions in what to do to keep that soldier alive.
West said the Army medical community is all about “getting a rapid return” on the kinds of innovations that used to take years to reach the field. Today, she said, the mantra is: “As fast as we can get a solution to the soldiers.”

Austin, TX – All Together ATX, a joint effort from Austin Community Foundation and United Way for Greater Austin, today announced $1.8 million in grant funding will be disbursed to 97 nonprofits working to support communities experiencing economic and health-related hardships caused by COVID-19 in Central Texas.
See how each of the 97 nonprofits will be investing their funds back into the community here.
This first round of rapid response funding will go towards projects addressing critical services, including food insecurity, basic needs, medical needs, employment and child care. The grants range in size from $50,000 to $3,000. The application review process was led by a committee of 70 community volunteers, managed by staff at United Way and Austin Community Foundation. Grants will be distributed electronically by May 1.
“In this time of uncertainty, it’s incredible to witness our community come together and rise to the challenge of supporting our nonprofit sector and the individuals they serve,” Mike Nellis, CEO of Austin Community Foundation, said. “Thanks to this generosity, we are able to quickly deploy substantial funding to organizations helping those struggling to make rent, put food on the table or get proper medical care. However, these initial grants only scratch the surface of the level of support our community will need to fully recover from this pandemic, which is why we will continue to fundraise and distribute additional funding.”
“The COVID-19 pandemic has disrupted life for all of us, but no one has been more affected than our friends and neighbors who were already struggling. From school closures to layoffs, now more than ever people are in need of our support. All of us at United Way are proud to partner with Austin Community Foundation to quickly get this first phase of funding into the hands of local nonprofits on the front lines, David C. Smith, CEO of United Way for Greater Austin, said. “Every meal served, every hour of child care funded, every rent covered, and every support given to someone out of a job will make a world of difference. Let’s keep it going. We’re grateful to Central Texans for giving so generously, and we’re just getting started.”
The All Together ATX fund was announced March 27 and has already raised nearly $5 million. In the days following the announcement, National Instruments contributed $1 million in matching funds and Applied Materials donated $300,000. Other major funders include AMD, Dell Technologies, Michael and Susan Dell Foundation, Moody Foundation, Powell Foundation, St. David’s Foundation and Silicon Labs. More than $543,700 has been raised through online donations from generous individuals across Central Texas and beyond.
“Silicon Labs is proud to support All Together ATX as part of our global COVID-19 response. Giving back to our communities has been a cornerstone of our company since we were founded in Austin 24 years ago, and it is now more important than ever. Our partnership with Austin Community Foundation and United Way for Greater Austin enables us to address immediate needs and build a foundation for a long-term recovery in Central Texas,” Tyson Tuttle, CEO of Silicon Labs, said.
Austin Community Foundation and United Way plan to disburse all funds raised for All Together ATX by the end of 2020. Applications for round 2 of funding will open this summer, with proposals due in late July.
The fundraising has just begun and the need continues to rise as stories accumulate from across the Central Texas community. People can learn more and donate at AllTogetherATX.com.

(GMM) Sunday at Interlagos may have been worth a whopping 30 million euros to the struggling Alpine team. That’s the admission of the team’s famous new executive advisor Flavio Briatore.
Briatore, who was criticized over the decision to scrap owner Renault’s works F1 engine program for 2026, has been brought back in to revive the outfit’s fortunes.
Alpine started Sunday’s Brazilian GP second to last in the constructors’ championship, amid a period of intense leadership stability and a highly uncompetitive car.
By the end of the race in often torrential conditions, Esteban Ocon and Pierre Gasly were both standing on the podium, along with Max Verstappen. The massive points haul skyrocketed the team to sixth overall, leapfrogging Williams, RB and Haas.
“Without taking anything away from an incredible Ocon in the wet and a Gasly who did his job well, today we were also lucky,” Briatore told Sky Italia.
“I think we have a car that is better in the wet. Unfortunately, I don’t think the next three races will be wet,” the Italian lamented. “But today we saw with all these young drivers presented as a new phenomena how much experience still counts in Formula 1.”
The 74-year-old freely admits that his focus since arriving at Enstone has not been on drastically improving the 2024 car.
“This year we did more of a house cleaning,” said Briatore, “and we’re still doing it. We made only one real evolutionary step so as not to disturb the 2025 project, and the step we took was in the direction of 2025 in any case. That is all I authorized.
“It went well, because this year many teams took steps back when they brought updates. So well done to our engineers.”
Briatore, the architect of title-winning successes for the team’s former guises as Benetton and Renault, is famed for running lean operations that are nonetheless successful.
He said: “We need to get back to having people working for a racing team and not for a corporate company. We have gone back to how Renault was before.
“Those who are left exclusively deal with the team and F1. Everyone else has gone,” revealed Briatore. “When I arrived there were 1150 people, now we are 850.”
He made clear that he fully supports Renault CEO Luca de Meo’s decision to scrap Renault’s works F1 engine program at the end of next year.
“We have put things back the way they should be, with the team based in Great Britain independent from everything else,” said Briatore.
Briatore admitted he does not expect Alpine to post another similar result next time out in Las Vegas.
“In Vegas we will certainly suffer because it is an engine circuit. In the wet, the difference in engine power is effectively zeroed out,” he said.
“We must make up for this deficit for 2025, as we are missing about three tenths just in engine. But we still need to do well by improving aerodynamically and with the tires, without feeling sorry for ourselves.”
If Alpine can now hang on to sixth overall in the constructors’ championship, with both Haas and RB within a few points with three races still to run, Sunday in Brazil will be remembered as a huge pay-day for the struggling outfit.
“From ninth place to sixth place is not 30 million (euros),” Briatore informed the Sky Italia interviewer. “It’s 29.2 million. It’s the first thing I asked,” he smiled.
“In any case, today we saw an incredible grand prix.”

A performance born from research into transformation: the process of changing of states. This terminology refers to a dynamic and irreversible shift that occurs when the outcome of a process is different from what was before. Digging Holes Searching for Blue Sky focuses on looking at this concept within human existence itself: in life, in death, and in aspects of humankind in which we find irreversible shifts and repetitions of people and situations that continue to reappear each time throughout existence, yet each time appearing slightly differently than the last.

How to create an amazing bedroom on a budget
How to create an amazing bedroom on a budget – top tips
Do you long to know how to create an amazing bedroom on a budget ?
Regular readers will know that I am a huge fan of decor and design and home interiors are one of my passions. I love to blog about beautiful homes, but most especially about how to have a beautiful home on a budget. I totally believe it is possible.
I have some great tips for you today on ways to create an amazing bedroom on a budget
I think it is important to start with the basics, beds, flooring, lighting, curtains and storage are a great place to begin, In a budget bedroom, these need to be well priced, practical and long-lasting and neutral colours work really well.
Here are some suggestions on how to create an amazing bedroom on a budget
It is possible to get a great bed for a good price, you just have to know where to look.
Beds from Bed Guru come in all sorts of shapes and styles and sizes.
I especially love their ottoman storage beds which are a wonderful way to store your bedding.
Beds need to be good quality and sturdy and the right size for your room. No matter how great a king-sized bed is you do need to be able to easily get around it. If your bedroom is on the smaller size you might want a rethink on bed size.
I love this wooden bed (also from Bed Guru) it is perfect for a contemporary bedroom. It is stylish, minimalist and classic and it is not goind to date anytime soon – this is really important if you live on a budget.
We bought really neutral bedside lamps for our bedroom and a simple pendant light shade, again in neutral colours. These are perfect for a low key bedroom and have lasted us a long time now. They have withstood any changes in the room as we never have a clashing issue.
Curtains in your amazing bedroom on a budget
We did not get traditional curtains for our bedroom instead we went for neutral black out blinds. These have enabled us again to change decor without concern and it has also meant the room looks more minimalistic and zen – a look we have aspired too. We do have sheer voile curtains over the blinds for the day time to enable privacy and to give a slightly softer look.
Flooring in a bedroom on a budget
Personally I do like a neutral carpet in a bedroom as it feels cosy and warm underfoot. However, if you don’t have the cash to splash on a carpet and already have wooden floors than a fluffy faux fur rug by the side or your bed and some soft slippers are a great budget alternative.
Get a great desk
Consider sleek gaming desks for a modern and enjoyable touch to their study or creative space. A well-designed desk can not only enhance their productivity but also add a touch of personalization to their space. You can look for one with ample storage to keep their study materials organized, making it easier for them to focus on their tasks.
Want an amazing bedroom on a budget? Consider Storage
Bedroom storage is really important if you are wondering how to create an amazing bedroom on a budget
A bedroom needs to be serene as it is the place you go to relax. Consequently, you really do need your clutter packed away. Under the bed storage (with lids to keep out the dust ) is a great way to keep your space clear.
One of the best tips though for storage though is less is more. Declutter regularly and you really won’t need half as much storage as you might think. We bought our solid wood wardrobes 15 years ago at an auction – they are still in great shape. Wardrobes and chest of drawers get a lot of wear and tear, It is worth investing in good quality if you want it to last.
Accessories to help you create an amazing bedroom on a budget
Accessories are so key when you are looking at creating an amazing bedroom on a budget. A faux fur throw, a scented jasmine candle, a glossy house plant all add up to a gorgeous bedroom and cost little in terms of outlay.
Keeping your room aired and clean and neat also have a cost-free and fabulous impact. I do hope you have enjoyed this post on how to create an amazing bedroom on a budget

What if there was a gig that enabled you to perform regularly in front of a crowd, become intimately familiar with a big city and its acting scene, and put some cash in your pocket? Turns out that being a tour guide is an ideal option for working actors looking for a survival job with enough flexibility to also pursue their artistic dreams.
You'll practice being in front of an audience
“Being a tour guide is fabulous,” says Brian Donnelly, a Hollywood historian who has given tours at Los Angeles guide companies such as Starline and Dearly Departed Tours. His unbridled enthusiasm for all things L.A.—its geography, fascinating factoids, and, especially, little-known stories—provides customers with both a lively take on the city and a mini-performance. “My tour is very personal,” Donnelly explains. “From the moment the door closes [to when it] opens, it’s kind of a show. That’s the best way to think of it.”
Enthusiasm is a key trait in a tour guide, as is likeability and confidence. “It’s interesting, because it’s customer service in front of a lot of people,” says Georgette Blau, president and owner of On Location Tours. Based in New York City and Boston, On Location has been offering tours since 1999, including ones centered on classic and current films and even “Sex and the City” hot spots. Blau says that because the “crowd control experience” is so important, the ideal employee is a people person, friendly yet firm. “Bending over backward customer service–wise, asking people for pictures, finding out where they’re from, being nice but able to control a crowd, is helpful.”
On Location is also the only guide company in NYC to hire exclusively actors. “We’re usually very, very picky,” says Blau. “We’ll bring in over 100 résumés, bring in 30 or 35 people...and we’re hiring about 1 percent!” The company counts accomplished actors Patti Murin, Gary Lee Mahmoud, and Paige Spara among its former guides.
Although theater training may be useful, Blau says her company prefers candidates with film acting experience, mostly so guides can share personal anecdotes from the sets of NYC-based shows and movies. “It adds an element to the tour,” she says. “We also love when they have a little bit of standup comedy experience. On a given tour they’re doing up to three hours of what could be standup.”
You'll hone your improv skills
Donnelly agrees that a tour comprises anywhere between 50 and 80 percent comedic banter and improvisation. “You have to know your set [and] your lines, but more than half of it is improv. Audiences are different. Their questions are different. I think it makes you a better performer because of that.” In addition to honing on-the-fly skills, tour guides must juggle remembering facts and stories, reading and gauging their audiences, and sometimes, depending on the company, driving as well.
It's a networking opportunity
Tour guides also benefit from being connected to a network of like-minded performers. “We sort of have an internal minicommunity where they’re all sharing tips with each other on how to make it in the acting world,” Blau says. Universal Studios Hollywood, one of L.A.’s biggest tour guide companies, offers symposiums with industry pros, auditions for top casting directors, and free acting classes.
The indirect relationship tour guiding has with the entertainment industry makes such work a logical choice for actors seeking that ideal part-time job. As Blau points out, “Waiting tables is great. But this allows you to have at least one foot in the acting world.”

Brandy vs rum vs whisky: their differences
Now we’ve cleared up some of the fundamentals and history of each of these spirits, let’s get down to the nitty-gritty about what makes brandy, rum and whisky different from one another.
The main ingredients of whisky are water, grain, and yeast. Typically, the grain used is barley, but it can also be rye, wheat, or another grain. The grain used can be malted or unmalted. The ingredients of whisky, and where these ingredients are grown, have a massive impact on the flavour of the finished whisky. American whiskies, for example, taste very different to Japanese varieties and there are even vast differences in the scotch produced across the five whisky regions of Scotland.
A significant difference between brandy and whisky is that brandy is usually made from grapes which are mashed and combined with yeast. However, other fruits can also be used to make brandy such as apples, blackberries, peaches, pears, and apricots.
Rum is made from sugarcane combined with water and yeast. Depending on the variety, the recipe can include raw cane juice, white or brown cane sugar, cane syrup, evaporated cane sugar and/or cane molasses.
With whisky, the grains are mashed and fermented, converting the starches into sugars and then into alcohol. The grains are ground, mixed with water, and heated to first convert the starches into sugars. Yeast is then added to ferment the sugary mash into alcohol. The fermentation process for whisky can last from a few days to more than a week, depending on the desired characteristics of the final product. This fermentation process is crucial for developing the flavour profile, with the type of yeast, the temperature of fermentation, and the composition of the grain mash all contributing.
The production of Brandy begins with the fermentation of fruit juice, converting sugars into alcohol. This fermentation can take place naturally or with the addition of yeast to help instigate and control the process. As with whisky, the duration of fermentation can vary but is generally a few days to a couple of weeks, depending on the desired characteristics of the brandy.
Sugarcane juice or molasses is fermented to produce alcohol in the production of rum. Similarly to brandy, this can be done with the help of naturally occurring wild yeast or by adding specific strains of yeast and like whisky, the type of yeast used and the fermentation conditions contribute to the development of flavours in the rum.
Brandy, rum, and whisky all undergo distillation, which is the process of separating the alcohol from the other components such as grain particles, water, and congeners. Whisky is distilled in pot stills or column stills, and the shape of the still and the specificities of the process play a significant role in shaping the final taste.
Brandy is typically distilled using pot stills, although column stills may also be used in some cases. Rum can be distilled using a variety of still types, including pot stills, column stills, or a combination of both, depending on the producer and the desired style of rum. Like with whisky, the choice still influences the final character of the rum. Pot stills tend to produce a heavier, more flavourful spirit, while column stills can create a lighter and smoother product.

“We’re delighted to sponsor the very first Open Banking Expo Awards,” Jayadeep Nair, Equifax chief product and marketing officer said. “Through the turbulence of the last year it has never been more important to be able to clearly and quickly understand an individual’s financial circumstances. We firmly believe combining the power of open banking with credit reference agency data holds the key to help organizations improve decisions on affordability, collections, risk management and create a faster, more efficient, customer journey through integration with brokers. It’s time to recognize the innovators who have led the way in the open banking during 2020.”
“Open banking innovation continues to go from strength to strength and is now forging its way as a mainstay into everyday banking experiences for millions of people across the globe,” added Adam Cox, Open Banking Expo cofounder. “The pandemic has only magnified this, highlighting huge opportunity to enhance social inclusion across the board. As we enter a new data-driven era of financial services we are looking forward to receiving a high calibre of entries.”

In a picturesque autumn scene at Miller’s Farm in Manotick, a new mentor-mentee match spends quality time together, heralding the promise of friendship and growth through the Big Brothers Big Sisters of Ottawa mentorship program. Meet Wesley and Josh.
Wesley, the Mentor with a big heart, and Josh, a bright young man eager to learn and grow, met at Miller’s Farm, where they picked out pumpkins to celebrate the fall season. These community outings are important to the blossoming new match, offering interesting activities for our matches to spend time together, learn from one another and build their relationship.
Josh, who has been part of the Big Brothers Big Sisters program for several months, couldn’t help but express his joy at having Wesley as his mentor. “Wesley is awesome. We’ve had so much fun together, and he’s taught me many cool things,” he said with a beaming smile. It’s clear that their time together is already positively impacting Josh’s life, offering guidance, support, and a strong role model.
On the other hand, Wesley beams with pride and fulfillment when speaking about Josh. “Being a mentor is such a rewarding experience. I’ve enjoyed every moment spent with Josh, and it’s heartwarming to see the positive changes in his life,” Wesley shared. This mentorship has given him a unique opportunity to make a meaningful contribution to a young person’s life and watch him thrive.
The Big Brothers Big Sisters of Ottawa mentorship program plays a vital role in fostering these connections that can improve lives. The success of mentorship matches like Wesley and Josh’s is a testament to the program’s mission of creating lasting, impactful relationships. It’s not just about the fun activities they share, like pumpkin-picking, but the profound influence that mentors can have on mentees, shaping their aspirations and self-esteem.
As the year unfolds, we eagerly anticipate the growth and development of this new mentor-mentee match. In the spirit of optimism and community support, we look forward to revisiting Wesley and Josh’s journey in a year to witness their progress together. Their heartwarming story serves as a reminder of the profound impact mentorship can have on the lives of young people, making a positive difference that will last a lifetime.

Vanilla jellies with apricot & raspberry compote
This panna cotta-style dessert reminds Mary Cadogan of the milk lollies she enjoyed as a girl
Break the lime jelly into cubes and then dissolve in 400ml boiling water. Pour into a small bowl and when cool place in the fridge to set.
Place the leaf gelatine in a small bowl of cold water and leave to soften.
Put the cornflour into a small saucepan and add a little of the milk and mix until smooth. Stir in the remaining milk, sugar, vanilla extract and cream. Place over a medium heat and bring slowly to the boil, stirring continuously.
Remove the sauce from the heat. Remove the softened gelatine from the water and add to the sauce, stirring until it has dissolved. Add the white chocolate and stir until it has melted.
Pour the mixture into a 600–700ml jelly mould. When cool, place in the fridge to set.
To remove the blancmange, gently loosen the edge from the mould. Then lower the mould into a bowl of very hot water and hold for a few seconds. (Glass and ceramic moulds will need longer than plastic, and metal moulds need very little time.) Lift out and place the serving dish over the mould. Quickly invert and give a couple of gentle shakes until you feel the blancmange coming away.
Break up the lime jelly with a fork and spoon around the bunny blancmange to serve.

During the Meet-the-Press session on April 24, the Health Minister urged people to continue with routine immunisation of their children to minimise the risk of disease outbreaks and loss of life due to vaccine preventable diseases.
“Because of COVID-19, there is definitely a certain level of fear about visiting hospitals and parents are worried about taking their children for their routine vaccines,” she said.
Lyonpo said that parents must avail immunisation services and asked them to contact the health ministry if they face any problems.
The ministry, however, urged people to practice physical distancing, proper hand washing and other health advisories for their safety.
According to a joint media advisory released by WHO, UNICEF and health ministry, routine immunisation protects children against 13 diseases.
The health ministry, WHO and UNICEF have been working together to provide uninterrupted routine immunisation services in the country.
The Japan Committee for Vaccines, GAVI and the Bhutan Health Trust Fund have also supported the procurement of vaccines in Bhutan.

Due to the hazardous environments within the Petrochemical industry BeamClamp and BoxBolt are ideal solutions for the connection of steel. The BeamClamp system requires no on site drilling or welding and therefore no hot permit is required. This means that no expensive fire watches are required during and after the connection has been made. Simple hand tools and unskilled labor can make a BeamClamp connection, saving time and money on the installation. In some enviroments drilling or welding is totally forbidden so clamping is the only alternative to make a steel to steel connection, our clamps are fully tested and guarantee a specific load value for each size and diameter.
Typical applications would include:
- Connection of heavy duty pipe supports
- Securing monorail systems
- Securing steel flooring sections for walkways and platforms
- Connection of blast walls
- Securing frames together for helideck expansions.

The Higer Ace E1 would make an excellent electric Bas Sekolah, but that price tag though…
The Higer Ace E1 comes with a 5.4-meter 70kWh specification, and in two options, namely the cargo van and passenger van. With 15 seats and a 70kWh battery capacity, the Go Auto-Higer Ace E1 can travel as far as 300km with a fully charged battery.
To fully charge the battery, it takes an estimated 75 minutes with a 60 kW DC power charger. The Go Auto-Higer Ace E1 also uses a lithium-ion battery from CATL. CATL is one of the largest battery manufacturing companies with an after-sales service team in Malaysia, making it one of the main factors in why it was selected as one of the main components by Higer.
Measuring 1,880 mm in width, 2,335mm in height, 5,380 mm in length, and a wheelbase length of 3,110 mm, the Go Auto Higer Ace E1 comes with 16-inch alloy wheels, an 8-inch LCD display (Android Player), and a reverse camera among others. Meanwhile, the charging inlet uses a CCS2 DC and Type-2 AC (International Standard).
Priced from RM268,888, every unit purchased will come with a free portable charger with a capacity of 7kW. The electric van also comes with a 5-year factory warranty, or 150,000km, whichever comes first. As for the battery, it is covered for 5 years or 200,000km, or whichever comes first.
That being said, the GVT has 88 after-sales service centres nationwide, including in Sabah and Sarawak. As a commercial vehicle distributor under the Go Auto group, GVT is also a distributor of electric and diesel buses for Higer and Yutong.
The first unit of the Go Auto-Higer Ace E1 has already been handed over to the Tenaga Nasional Berhad (TNB) at the end of last year. GVT Sdn Bhd Executive Director Wan Ahmad Wan Omar said, “We will deliver two units of this electric van to the Universiti Malaysia Pahang (UMP), and four more to TNB.”
“I want to thank the government for giving, as well as extending the tax exemption incentives for electric vehicles in Malaysia, where CKD is up to 2027 while CBU is until 2025. This will boost the electric vehicle segment in Malaysia, in an effort to bounce back post-Covid-19.”
“In line with the positive feedback and high demand from customers, GVT will also be offering an automatic version later this year. To all our potential buyers please continue staying for updates.”
The company has been distributing electric buses to TNB, as well as diesel buses to several government agencies and universities, including MINDEF, MARA, RELA, and UTHM.

Burgtec's first range of signature handlebars developed with, yes you've guessed it! Josh Bryceland.
Josh loved the sweep and rise of the Ride Wide Bars but asked us to make him something a bit higher. The Rat isn't one of those guys that's 'crazy' on setup, but he knows what he wants.
- 38MM RISE:
Back in 2018 Josh's idea was for something more versatile that he could use on all his bikes. After testing various prototypes, he finally narrowed it down to a 38mm rise bar, the perfect sweet spot. The first material thought was Carbon but after getting to ride various Alloy prototypes he just got more comfortable on Alloy.
So, the 38mm "Ride High" was born. The same unsurpassed comfort and durability as all of the Ride Wide range, but just a little Higher.
- 50MM RISE:
It's fair to say high rise bars have taken a back seat over the last decade much in part to the increasing wheel sizes pushing up front ends of bikes and riders trying to match their previous riding positions.
After first coming to us a little over 3 years ago and deciding on the 38mm rise bar Josh wanted to quite literally raise the bar once again.
We'd previously prototyped the 50mm bar alongside the 38s but at the time just felt they looked out of place. With more riders moving towards 29ers we felt the market just wasn't ready for them.
Josh quickly adapted to the 38s but still felt he was running a lot of stack on his bikes. So with more frequency, he was popping in to Burgtec HQ asking if we had any of the 50mm rise bars left.
In the end, we ran out of prototype bars, and Rats a very persuasive guy so we just decided to go into production with the 50s.
For Josh, he loves how the higher rise allows for more maneuverability as well as getting rid of the excess stack height.
Plus, being a taller rider, they keep his weight where he wants it and freely admits "It's easier on my back".
The bars are a natural fit for Jump bikes but as Josh and the boys show they are equally at home on bigger travel trail bikes too.
- Width: 800mm
- Rise: 38mm, 50mm
- Available in 35mm clamp only.
- Backsweep: 9°
- Upsweep: 5°
- Weight: 38mm Rise = 346g, 50mm Rise = 391g
Option | UPC | MPN |
35mm / Black / 38mm / 800mm | 712885685271 | 4501 |

Metronidazole powder is an antibiotic (for anaerobic bacteria) and anti-protozoa medication used to treat a wide range of conditions internally and externally in fish. Metronidazole has been shown to be highly effective against internal and external flagellates. It is also effective against protozoan parasites such as Cryptocaryon in marine aquaria or against Hexamita and Ichthyophthirius. Metronidazole is most commonly used to treat Cichlid disease due to the occurrence of Hexamita.
- How We Ship
- Additional information
- Have a question about this product?
Treatment: Remove active carbon, Purigen, ChemiPure or other similar media that would remove medication from the tank. Turn off UV Sterilizers as well. Dosed at 1/4 teaspoon per 20 gallons of water after a 25% water change. Continue treatment for 10 days total.
Other uses/treatment options:
Antibacterial Treatment: Metronidazole has proven to be effective against anaerobic bacteria, hence its recommendation as an antibiotic. However, we recommend using in combination with Neomycin, especially when attempting to treat bloat. Metro alone does not affect bacteria in an oxygenated environment which is why it isn’t commonly used as an antibacterial remedy.
Nematode or Trematode Treatment: Metronidazole is effective when used in combination with Praziquantel for internal parasites.
Fish Bath Treatment: Treat dechlorinated water or tank water in a small container at 1/8 teaspoon per 5 gallons. Leave fish in this bath for as long as tolerated. If concerned with cooling can add a heater.
We ship Monday - Saturday every week of the year as soon as your order is placed. Our products proudly ship out from the USA. Our freeze dried foods and pellets are packed in zip lock bags for easy use and in a bubble pack or a hard box for secure shipping. Keep in mind fish food is generally fragile, and there may always be smaller pieces and fine fragments in your order. We take pride in the high quality products we produce. Our freeze dried foods and pellets are packed with nutrients to make your fish grow fat and healthy. Our blackworms are grown, cleaned and processed entirely indoors (in troughs in large sheds). This means that there is no potential for external pollutants (bird droppings, rats, etc) that many outdoor growers face. Our water is single-pass (not recycled) mountain spring water resulting in an impeccable environment for our worms. We specialize in freeze-drying all of our food products. |

Read on to learn how to make your finance transformation a success. Once you have the right tools and resources, finance transformation is a snap.
Data and automation provide intelligence to finance departments. Automation solutions can measure productivity and highlight unnecessary expenditures. Real-time analytics provide a bird’s eye view of organisational happenings. As a result, finance departments can focus on creating value for customers and fostering employee engagement. A successful finance transformation process will result in a happier workforce and reduced turnover. Further, it will reduce the need for expensive consulting services. So, how does a finance transformation impact the business?
The finance function needs to get the most out of its team. Rather than relying on a single individual to tackle all finance activities, a transformed finance department can get the most from its people. In the process, it adds value to the company through increased productivity and efficiency. While this sounds complex, the concept is simple. Change management, including communication with stakeholders, can help push the transformation forward. And, of course, a well-designed transformation plan will ensure success.
Whether you are looking to implement an automation solution or restructure your accounting system, an automation solution can help you. Automating processes and improving employee satisfaction and growth are just a few of the benefits of finance transformation. Regardless of the type of transformation you’re undertaking, the right tools and people can make a big difference. It all starts with the right attitude. So, take a closer look at how to implement it within your company.
To make this transformation successful, finance professionals need to make two major shifts. First, they must abandon traditional finance function operating models and create new ones. Second, they must upgrade their talent management and leadership capabilities. Embark helps you take the scary out of finance transformation. So, don’t miss the chance to transform your finance function and your business. Get ready to experience the next phase of the finance industry. You’ll be glad you did.
To make finance transformation work, you must first identify what the problems are. For example, a finance manager must be able to translate data into actionable insights for decision-making. Then, the finance manager must have the necessary skills to coach others on digital tools. Lastly, he or she should be able to work with various types of stakeholders, including senior management and board members. This is the only way to achieve the transformation in finance.

This week I said, "I think that'll happen after the first of the year" and I immediately realized that 2021 is moving towards its end quickly! The big ash tree in front of our house has dropped all its leaves and the air has a noticeable chill to it.
In October we spent almost all of our free time with family and friends. My parents visited at the beginning of the month and we did lots of fall activities together. We got to visit Chicago one weekend and see my cousin run the Chicago Marathon which we all loved.
There were two trips to Michigan, unfortunately for less than ideal reasons. Our family lost both of Sandy's grandmothers within a month of each other. We were able to celebrate their life, and although sad, we were grateful for our time together with the wonderful women that they were.
Even with sad events, there were still celebrations last month. Sarah turned five! It is true - the days are long, but the years are short.
Halloween remains a favorite holiday in our house. This year Sarah was a princess and Peter was a duck (Sarah's costume from two years ago). We went to more houses than ever before, with both kids going non-stop for two hours. I foresee some long trick-or-treating nights in our future.
For this month's resort, I want to feature one that I visited in September, Nickelodeon Riviera Maya. This luxury family-friendly resort knocked my socks off when I visited. I was extremely skeptical going in. I thought it was going to be over the top with kids kitsch. I was wrong.
Nickelodeon Riviera Maya was the perfect blend of nostalgia with current cultural references. Remember the Snick "Orange Couch", or Legends of the Hidden Temple?! Pair that with Paw Patrol, Dora the Explorer, and Sponge Bob Square Pants. There is something for everyone here.
The resort is brand new, just opening in 2021. The suites all felt big and fresh. For those of you that have five people in your family, we all know how hard it is to find resorts that can accommodate five in a room. Not only is that an option here, but there are two bathrooms to help make things easier. All the rooms face the beautiful ocean. And a bonus feature is that all the rooms are swim-up. This means that even if you aren't on the ground floor, there is a pool right outside of your room to swim in.
We toured a number of the restaurants, and they looked very appealing. There was even a selection of craft beer, which doesn't always happen at all-inclusive resorts!
Perhaps one of the biggest attractions was the Aqua Nick waterpark. This waterpark was on par with any major waterpark I've been to. Slides, lazy rivers, wave pools, and adventure areas were all there. But, unlike other theme parks where you need to pay for overpriced food or drinks, it is all included here.
There is a major change for travelers happening in the coming weeks. Currently, all travelers coming back into the USA must have a Covid test within three days of departure. For unvaccinated passengers, this is changing to one day on November 8. I will make sure this is all spelled out on travel documents that are sent before your vacation. The resorts have all this information and will be able to plan accordingly. More information can be found here.
Many of you are looking at trips for spring break and Summer 2022. I'm already seeing some flights selling out. It's not too early to begin to explore what options are out there. As always, if you have questions about anything travel-related, I'm here to help.

New car registrations continued to rise in August, marking the 42nd consecutive month of growth, new figures have shown.
According to the latest data from the Society of Motor Manufacturers & Traders (SMMT), new car registrations in the UK were 9.6 per cent higher in August 2015 than for the same month a year earlier. There were 79,060 new cars registered last month, which brings the year-to-date total to 1,634,369 units, 6.7 per cent higher than the first eight months of 2014.
Market research such as this is always valuable to those working in the motor trade industry, whether it is an individual repairing cars part-time or a large dealership. Not only can it help inform their stock and working practices but it will also inform their decision when it comes to obtaining a road risks insurance or combined motor trade insurance policy.
Substantial growth was witnessed in the alternatively-fuelled vehicles market, which saw a 52.3 per cent jump in activity year-on-year. Meanwhile, registrations in the private, business and fleet markets were up 7.2 per cent, 11.8 per cent and 12.1 per cent respectively.
Mike Hawes, SMMT Chief Executive, commented: "August’s strong performance has again been driven by attractive finance deals and a diverse range of technologically advanced models.
"Britain’s budget-conscious buyers are taking advantage of low regular monthly payments that provide certainty and affordability. With September’s new 65-plate now in full swing, we expect UK showrooms to be as busy as ever."

An interfaced fire and voice evacuation solution for Casa Sollievo Bimbi
Bosch delivers security and safety solution including phased emergency evacuation for the healthcare institution of Milan
Hospitals and medical buildings pose specific requirements to building safety and security. In the event of an emergency, responders need full situational awareness to locate threats and guide patients, visitors, and staff to safety in a coordinated manner.
Providing much-needed care
Founded in 1982, the Associazione Vidas has been providing free-of-charge social and health services for patients suffering from incurable diseases at home and the Casa Vidas hospice. Later the association extended its services to children with incurable diseases, and in 2019 as the first pediatric hospice in Lombardy, Casa Sollievo Bimbi opened and now serves young patients and their families as a ‘green’-certified, six-story building with comprehensive support on a total area of 6,400 square meters.
Comprehensive safety in a single solution
Ensuring the safety of patients was a priority from day one. The Associazione Vidas was looking for a single supplier with experience in equipping medical buildings to provide a centrally controlled, integrated solution for the institution. With integration and end-to-end security as the primary focus, the system relies on IP-based components and network architecture. Solutions include the Modular Fire Panel 5000 Series connected to 1,200 digital detectors for real-time fire alarm throughout the building. Combined with the PRAESIDEO Digital Public Address and Voice Alarm System, certified by security standards such as EN 54-16 and ISO 7240-16, the solution enables a new level of emergency response.
Faster evacuation, starting closest to potential threats
The connection between fire and voice alarm systems at Casa Sollievo Bimbi is created by the Smart Safety Link from Bosch. First, the IP-networked fire detectors in the building automatically pinpoint the exact location (floor, room, area) of a fire to emergency responders for a heightened sense of situational awareness. Second, the system broadcasts voice announcements with clear evacuation instructions, which studies have proven to deliver time gains up to 30 percent for emergency response teams compared to a non-voice alarm signal. And third, the Smart Safety Link allows for a ‘phased’ evacuation of the building by different zones. Starting with addressing building occupants closest to the threat creates a highly efficient emergency response that avoids panic and directs people to safety via the shortest, safest escape routes.
The latter is especially important in clinical buildings. In a palliative care environment, the emergency evacuation plan mandates moving all able-bodied persons, patients, visitors and staff along the closest emergency routes and exits away from danger zones to designated safe areas. At the same time, persons with reduced mobility and those requiring assistance need to be guided to temporary safety areas, while staff is dispatched to assist their evacuation. To optimally prepare for these emergencies, clinical staff can pre-record specific emergency evacuation plans on the PRAESIDEO Digital Public Address and Voice Alarm System. So in case of a threat, staff is free to help patients instead of spending valuable time on live announcements.
Video and intrusion alarm protect from outside threats
Securing the building against outside threats, the Bosch team also installed 50 high-definition cameras to monitor the perimeter and entrance areas. Video security is supported by intrusion alarm sensors in critical areas, while a digital access control system featuring card readers and controllers in all four elevators protects restricted areas from unauthorized access. Seamlessly integrated, these security systems are also easy to manage. All critical components can be controlled via a centralized dashboard, thanks to software from Alesys, a member of the Bosch Integration Partner Program (IPP), to deliver comprehensive safety and security for Lombardy’s first pediatric hospice.

What’s next for Dogwood Hills?
Published 4:30 am Wednesday, March 22, 2017
That’s the question Brewton residents are asking following the closure of Dogwood Hill’s Municipal Golf Course.
The city council voted earlier this month to close the course because of declining revenues and growing expenses.
A number of plans have been discussed over the years for the estimated 90-acre commercially zoned parcel. With Ala. Hwy. 31 frontage, it is one of the most visible sections of land available for development in the city.
In 2007, the property was eyed as a possible location for a new Brewton Middle School campus. Then, Brewton Standard archives show the city school board said the system would have likely offer the city “about $2.5 million” for the property, including the golf course, clubhouse and playground areas.
In 2016, new talks began of developing the site for additional recreation opportunities such as ball fields and a splash pad as well as use for a possible hotel.
When asked about plans for the property, Mayor Yank Lovelace said, “As mayor, I and the city council value the property greatly as one of our city’s most treasured assets. Currently, there are a number of options open as potential uses for the property. As we move forward, all those will be considered to determine the property’s best use that benefits the maximum number of citizens at the lowest cost to the city.”
Sound off with ideas for the property’s possible uses at brewtonstandard.com.

There’s no minimum amount of debt required. If you’re struggling with debt that is not affordable, then bankruptcy might a good option.
People from all walks of life file bankruptcy. What might be affordable to one person, might not be affordable to another. It’s all relative.
Of course, there are some scenarios in which a bankruptcy might not be worth it based on the amount of debt you have, and the costs involved.
In those scenarios, debt defense or debt settlement might be a good strategy to deal with unaffordable debt.
Every case is different. If you’re not sure what the best option is for you, please call us to schedule a free strategy session to develop your best plan of action.

“My job is to live a great life.”
One of my mentor coaches said that during my training, and it really stuck with me. As a coach, my job is to help people make their lives better, and to do that, I have to know what a great life looks like, and feels like.
But, I am also a human being, and most human beings just can’t be great every day of every year of their life. And the past few weeks have been rough for me. I’ll spare you the details, but I have faced challenges on multiple fronts— personal, professional, and creative— and by the end of last week I was in complete meltdown mode.
And layered on top of all of that, was a new thing I have just started to recognize: the idea that people would regard me as a failure of a coach if my life wasn’t always awesome. Does Jen Sincero talk about NOT being a badass? Does Mike Dooley send Messages From the Universe In a Pissy Mood?
But here’s the truth of it: many (perhaps most) of us are drawn to coaching precisely because we do struggle, the same way many people become nutritionists or weight loss experts because they’ve had their own health problems to cope with, or people with anxiety become mental health professionals.
Myself? I have a history of chronic depression, and I suspect I may also have undiagnosed ADHD issues. (When I was in school, “hyperactivity” was just becoming a buzzword. I suspect that a few years later I would have been on Ritalin.) Growing up with extremely critical parents leaves me prone to fear of failure and rejection sensitivity. And here I am, trying to launch a coaching practice while also submitting novels to agents and keep a comic running?
I have extremely high standards for myself, apparently. The dark side of bringing the awesome, is the pressure of wanting to Be Awesome all the time, when sometimes Just Being is enough.
I just need to remind myself of that from time to time.

Rovers square up against Scunthorpe United next in the Sky Bet League Two. Below is all the pre-match info ahead of our Tuesday night clash!
The Gas go into the game against Keith Hill's side after taking a point out of our previous fixture against Swindon Town. Rovers are unbeaten in three Sky Bet League Two fixtures after Saturday's draw and will be looking to extend that run to four games in tomorrow's clash against the Iron.
Iron Manager, Keith Hill says he is looking forward to the visit of Rovers tomorrow evening;
"It's one I'm really looking forward to, even though we've got a depleted squad going into it. It creates an opportunity for us as a football club and for the players to test ourselves over 90 minutes.
"Those are the challenges and they need to be met by the group of players, myself and all the staff.
"It's amazing what happens when you get that little bit of confidence and self-belief, but you've got to fight for it and we really have to fight and dig deep, but to do that we need a little bit of luck as well."
The Iron are currently on a four game losing streak in the Sky Bet League Two and suffered a 0-1 home defeat at the hands of Newport County last time out. Scunthorpe are currently in 23rd place in the league standings with a return of 19 points in their 26 games this season. Scunthorpe have scored 19 goals in the league this season and average 9.9 shots per game.
Prior to joining Rovers, Ryan Loft had scored four goals and registered one assist in his 12 games before signing on with the Gas. Since Ryan's departure from The Sands Venue Stadium, Myles Hippolyte has had to take up the goalscoring responsibilities. This season, Hippolyte has scored four goals and provided two assists in 18 Sky Bet League Two appearances so far this campaign.
Anthony Backhouse is the match official on Tuesday evening. Backhouse has officiated 16 games across three EFL competitions this season but has only taken charge of five Sky Bet League Two games this season. In those five games, Backhouse averages 19.60 fouls per game and hands out 4.20 yellow cards per game. Across his 16 games this season, Backhouse has handed out only one red card, with that red card coming in AFC Wimbledon's game against MK Dons.
Backhouse last took charge of a Rovers game in September 2020 in our fixture against Sunderland at the Stadium of Light. In that game, Backhouse showed former Sunderland player, George Dobson a straight red card.
EFL sponsors, Sky Bet have priced Rovers at 11/8 for the win on Tuesday evening. Rovers can also be backed at 11/1 to win the game 0-2. On the goal-scorer markets, Sam Finley is priced at 5/1 to open the scoring on Tuesday. Sam Nicholson can be backed at 10/3 to score at any time in the match.

Team British Columbia Wins Second Straight Indigenous Challenge Match With Ontario
By Brad Ziemer, British Columbia Golf
British Columbia retained bragging rights after winning its second straight Indigenous Challenge Match with Ontario at the Bear Mountain Resort in Victoria.
Team B.C. outscored Ontario 9-7 in the two-day match-play event at Bear Mountain’s Valley and Mountain courses.
Christina Spence Proteau of Port Alberni and partner Joan Hinkey of Nanoose Bay won both of their matches. Proteau and Hinkey beat the Ontario duo of Lorraine Elijah and Sophie Malenfant 4&3 in their Tuesday match.
They won their opening match Monday by the same 4&3 score over Kathy Jamieson and Melanie Burgess of Team Ontario. “Joan definitely carried me a fair bit yesterday, so I earned my keep a little more today,” said Spence Proteau, a winner of multiple provincial and national championships.
“We balanced each other out really well and had a lot of fun at the same time. Both matches started off a little bit slow at our end, but we had really great back nines both days.”
Winning was obviously nice, but Spence Proteau noted this event is about much more than that. “Everyone is competitive and wants to do their best, but there’s a collegiality that is different from other events,” said Spence Proteau, who won the inaugural B.C. Indigenous Championship in 2023.
“One of the players from Ontario has brought a gift for each of us the last two years. So I am going to send some smoked salmon from Port Alberni as a gift. There are some friendships being forged across the provinces.”
B.C. won last year’s the inaugural Indigenous Challenge Match against Ontario, which was also played at Bear Mountain, by a score of 18-14. “We’d love to see the other provinces get involved, beyond British Columbia and Ontario,” Spence Proteau said. “I think Golf Canada would support a national match play event.”
Each team was comprised of 16 players — four two-person teams in net and gross divisions. B.C. Junior Boys champion Austin Krahn of Christina Lake, who repeated as B.C. Indigenous champion this past spring, played at Bear Mountain with Cody Bailey of Prince George. They won both of their matches, but had to battle from behind to seal their victory on Tuesday over Team Ontario’s Daylon Gee and Ron Atatise.
“Our match went right to the 18th hole,” said the 16-year-old Krahn. “We were three down through three after a tough start. Then we battled back pretty hard. We were down two with three to play and then we won the last three holes to win it by one. It was a pretty good battle. There were really good shots by both teams. It was just great golf all-round.”
It was a family affair of sorts for Krahn, whose older brothers, Mitchell and David, were also part of Team B.C. “This year the competition was really, really high level,” Krahn said.
“My two brothers and I all had our matches go to the 18th hole today. It was a great experience and you get the same kind of pressure you get in this tournament that you do in the B.C. Junior. It was the same kind of stuff going down the stretch. It was really fun and having the whole family here is really special.”
The other members of Team B.C. included 2024 Indigenous Championship winner Kylie Jack of West Kelowna , Hayley Geremia of Langley, Harry Ferguson of Invermere, James Ivers of Surrey, Josh Charles of Victoria, Robert Louie of Kelowna, Sharon Jack of West Kelowna, Erin Duhaime of Victoria, Gloria Morgan of Vernon and Cherie Williams of Victoria.
Stephen Tooshkenig, Ontario's non-playing captain, said his team thoroughly enjoyed the competition. “We were tied after day one and B.C. went into a different mode today, played quite well, made some putts and ended up beating us 9-7," he said. "It was very close all the way through. Several matches went to the 18th hole.”

This floor-through apartment for rent is on the second floor of an early 20th century brick row house in Windsor Terrace.
This floor-through apartment for rent is on the top floor of a two-story early 20th century brick row house with a scrolled lintel and a bracketed cornice. Located at 1668 10th Avenue in Windsor Terrace, it’s three blocks away from Prospect Park.
There are big bay windows in the front and rear, and nice original details like wall moldings, parquet floors, pocket doors in one room and built-in storage with drawers in another.
It looks like the original two bedrooms might have been the small front room next to the double parlor and the middle room with pocket doors on both sides.
The latter is where the bank of built in closets and drawers that you see in the photos is located. The big room in the rear, which was probably meant originally as a dining room, could be repurposed as a bedroom as well.
Running alongside it is a narrow kitchen, which is not pictured. The bathroom, which is off the kitchen and next to a walk-in closet, is a bold 20th century mix of styles.
Laura Rozos of Compass has the listing, which is asking $3,000 a month.

Summer Update on BU Graduate Worker Negotiations
From Dr. Kenneth Lutchen, University Provost and Chief Academic Officer ad interim
June 6, 2024
Dear Faculty Colleagues and Graduate Students,
With commencement behind us and Summer Term underway, we are continuing to diligently work to reach a contract with our graduate student workers (BUGWU).
Our team has met with the BUGWU negotiators three times in the past two weeks – including this past Tuesday, June 4, for our 28th bargaining session.
So far, we have reached tentative agreements with BUGWU on 16 contract articles, most recently (on May 14) addressing union security and sharing bargaining unit information.
We continue to be disappointed, however, at BUGWU’s lack of urgency around tackling the core economic proposals that remain on the table – compensation, as well as the variety of paid benefits they have requested from the University (including parental leave, subsidies for childcare, paid time off, and health and dental benefits). BUGWU continues to maintain their original position that all graduate workers should receive an annual stipend of $62,440.
As you may know, we proposed to move all PhD students to a 12-month stipend at our May 14 bargaining session. Our offer means that all PhD students within the five-year funding guarantee would receive a minimum annual stipend of $42,159. For hundreds of our PhD students, this amounts to an increase of more than 50% above their current stipend level. This is a big move for BU, and something the union requested. We have heard that many PhD students appreciated this offer.
We were hoping our good faith offers on compensation would spur progress and a response from the students at the table. If we do not settle the contract by the fall semester, our compensation offers – including the 12-month stipend – will remain proposals, and not be implemented for our current and incoming students.
The lack of progress is not limited to compensation. Currently, all 14 outstanding contract articles remain in BUGWU’s court. Despite this, BUGWU declined to present a single counterproposal at each of our last three negotiations sessions. This Tuesday’s session lasted only 15 minutes when they again declined to offer any counterproposals on these outstanding items.
We believe strongly that we must try to come to resolution on a contract as soon as possible. We have worked in good faith to offer specific contract proposals that our graduate workers asked for, and we will continue to do so. With that said, bargaining is a two-way street. We hope BUGWU will respect the urgency of the moment and come to future bargaining sessions ready to meaningfully tackle some of the outstanding economic issues on the table with our team. We remain ready and willing to meet them in good faith to do so.

Revenge ended last season with massive cliffhangers, including a couple deaths, a resurrection, an arrest, a commitment, and a frame job. When Revenge season 4 premieres, there will be plenty of drama.
Spoiler alert: This article contains Revenge spoilers and clips.
With David Clarke’s name cleared, will Emily’s quest for revenge be over? Conrad was imprisoned and is now presumably dead and the great Victoria Grayson has been left to rot in a mental institution. Plus, Emily’s father is actually alive!
That will be an awkward reunion. Emily went against her father’s wishes and left the sweet Amanda Clarke behind and became a ruthless killer instead. Her life will be turned upside-down with the news.
Executive Producer Gretchen J. Berg teased, “The drive of season four will be Emily discovering who Amanda Clarke is and Emily figuring out her new life with her father in it. I don’t want to say when she’s going to discover that, but that’s going to be our arc for the season.”
In addition to Emily unraveling her true identity, it looks like she’ll have to contend with being the target of someone else’s revenge. The tides have turned!
Victoria does the voice over for the first Revenge Season 4 Trailer, “My name is Victoria Grayson and I have a story to tell. Over the past three years my family was destroyed, the love of my life murdered, my freedom taken away. When everything you love has been stolen from you, someone has to pay. Emily Thorne, I’m coming for you.”
Check it out now and then continue on for a few more spoilers for the upcoming season.
When we last saw Jack, he was being arrested for Charlotte’s kidnapping. He’ll take the cuffs off and become the one putting them on others when he becomes a cop. Yes, Jack likely will be donning a uniform!
What will happen when Emily and Victoria find out David’s alive? Executive Producer Aaron Harberts told EOnline, “He may not be the most emotionally and psychologically stable and if Victoria is the first person to get to David, she might be in control of that guy, which sort of presents her power running through the season,”
Are you excited to see the return of Revenge? Which cliffhanger are you most intrigued by? Check them out in the below slideshow.
Revenge Season 4 premieres Sunday, September 28 at 10pm ET on ABC.
