We’ve been so pleased with how Daysailer hulls with a few reinforcements and minor modifications perform and meet our needs, that despite despising fiberglass work, and having spawned more than one plywood cruising dinghy design to build, we’re now beginning to experiment with alternative rigs for Daysailers.
The first of these experiments is Gemma, which is currently undergoing a transformation into a cat-ketch, with unstayed wooden masts. Normally Daysailers have a fractional sloop sail plan on an aluminum mast with steel stays. A shorter mainmast should allow her to sail under a bridge at low tide that divides the two branches of the Westport River. The unstayed masts will allow a following wind to be easily spilled, as the sheets can be eased as far as needed, instead of being stopped by the shrouds. Greater sail area will hopefully give us more options in lighter conditions.
Lu has been busy in the shop and writes, “Ken showed up after working all week and madly spread epoxy goo all morning to make this possible! A monumental glue-up on a day way too hot for epoxy work.”
The below pictures illustrate the process of building a hollow mast that will be lighter and possibly stronger than one turned from a single piece of solid wood.
Plenty to do still before we find out how she performs. Stay tuned!

Quick, quiet and efficient. That’s how Fuso eCanter driver Lance Valentine describes the fully-electric BevChain truck he uses to deliver Toohey’s beer kegs to Sydney suburbs.
Each day, Lance completes three to four loops out from Linfox subsidiary BevChain’s Lidcombe base, delivering fresh Toohey’s kegs to pubs in a radius of 40km. Lance plugs the truck into a fast charger when he returns to the BevChain base in order to briefly top up the batteries, and heads out again. Depending on traffic conditions and route, total mileage for Lance’s daily deliveries could be up to 150km.
“When I get back to the yard after the first run, the battery still has decent range thanks to some regenerative braking,” he says. “With the fast charger, I easily top it up in a very short time and that gives me enough to get out and back without having to worry about range,” Lance adds.
The eCanter uses six liquid-cooled lithium ion batteries mounted in the frame that store 82.8kW/h of electricity and feed a permanent magnet synchronous motor.
As for what it is like to drive the pioneering eCanter, Lance is clear. “It is smoother, more comfortable and there is hardly any noise,” he says. “It is also really easy to drive.”
The near-silent operation is also a big plus for residents in the areas the Toohey’s kegs are delivered.
“Beyond the fact it is producing zero emissions, the quiet operation is also really important,” he says. “Driving around heavily populated areas without the noise of a diesel is a big positive when you think about noise pollution in a neighborhood,” he says.
Lance didn’t know what the electric truck’s performance would be like and certainly didn’t expect it to be quick. “I had never driven an electric car, so I didn’t know that they have really good performance and are quite zippy,” he adds.
The eCanter’s power output is 135kW and 390Nm of torque can be delivered the moment the accelerator pedal is pressed.
Lance also likes using the electric version of engine braking that also recharges the battery when pulling up the truck. “The regenerative braking is so good that I hardly have to use the brakes, I tend to look ahead and see what I can do to harvest energy with the regenerative braking, like lifting off to charge going down a hill or using the regenerative braking to pull up rather than use the brakes.” It is so effective that the traditional brakes are used very little.
Lance says the truck, which carries a special paint scheme explaining that it is fully electric, gains a lot of attention. “It is a real head-turner,” he says. “I have a lot of people come up to me and ask about it. They mainly want to know whether it really is an electric truck,” he explains.
“When I drive off hardly making a sound, it just blows them away.”
As for his role as one of the few drivers to pilot an electric truck in Australia, Lance says it is something to be proud of. “I’m really happy to drive a zero emissions truck and actually be part of history,” he says.
Sustainable fleet plays a major role in Linfox’s sustainability journey through its Green Fox program, established in 2007. Linfox strives to protect the environment through a shared vision with its customers and partners.
The eCanter was launched globally in 2017 and was introduced to Australia last year after a local evaluation program.
Leading transport operators have adopted the eCanter including Linfox (which operates trucks with partners Bunnings and Coles) as well as Australia Post and Centurion.
Unlike other light duty electric trucks available in Australia, the eCanter features a full suite of active safety features including Advanced Emergency Braking System (AEBS), which uses radar to detect potential collisions and brake hard even in the event the driver fails to do so. This system can even automatically begin braking if it detects moving pedestrians, which is especially important in urban areas. Other safety features include a Lane Departure Warning System, Electronic Stability Control, Hill Start Assist, a reversing camera and driver and passenger airbags.

IS THERE A DIFFERENCE BETWEEN HAIR PLUG AND HAIR TRANSPLANT PROCEDURES?
For both men and women who are experiencing baldness or hair loss, it’s good to know that you have options available to retain or maintain a certain aesthetic look. From medications and tonics to treatment procedures, there are a lot of options available for hair restoration. Many people get confused about the difference between hair plugs and hair transplants, as learning medical terminology can often be confusing when there are similar sounding treatments.
Hair plugs are a form of hair transplant, which many people may not have known until now. Hair transplant technology has come a long way to help restore people’s confidence and self-esteem. In the 1950s hair plugs were first used instead of follicular unit strip surgery (FUS), which started to gain traction in the 1990s.
What are Hair Plugs?
Hair plugs refer to the grouping of hairs that would be inserted into the scalp. Or Simply, hair plugs are round grafts of hair inserted into the scalp. The number of hair plugs used depends on the person’s specific case, mostly, how much hair loss is there (baldness), and what color the hair is. The plugs all differ by the shape and number of hair follicles they consist of. Often times, the hair plugs look and behave like real hair does, but sometimes if not done properly it can look fake, and unnatural, due to the way the hair grows. In other words, the newly transplanted hair does not always mimic the natural growth of our hair and the fact that you have plugs can begin to look quite obvious.
The New Hair Restoration and Transplantation Experience
Today, modern hair restoration and transplantation has evolved to Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE), which is a hair transplant technology that aims to give balding people with hair loss the most natural looking hair possible. During the FUE procedure, hair grafts consisting of a small number of hair follicles. It’s removed from donor sites, from other areas of your body, and transplanted to the balding areas of your head. This is your real hair, not some artificial plug that you have to worry about looking fake.
To learn more about hair plugs and hair transplant, MAXiM Hair Restoration has locations in New York, Long Island, Connecticut, Chicago, Dallas, and the Washington, DC area. Contact MAXiM today for a consultation.

You draw the Queen of Cups in a tarot reading and start wondering – does this card mean yes, no, or maybe? With her gentle gaze and kind expression, the Queen of Cups can seem ambiguous. But understanding her watery nature provides clarity.
When she’s upright, her flowing intuition says yes. Reversed, she’s emotionally blocked and says no. And when aspects of the reading are unclear, her compassionate wisdom leans toward maybe.
What The Queen of Cups Really Means
The Queen of Cups represents emotions, creativity, and intuition. When she appears in a reading, it often means a nurturing, caring figure may enter your life.
She is someone who exudes compassion and kindness. She is telling you that you need to tap into your emotional intelligence and listen to your intuition. Pay attention to your gut instincts and any creative sparks of inspiration. The Queen of Cups is all about going with the flow and seeing where your emotions lead you, not about chasing or pushing.
When The Queen of Cups Means “Yes” (Upright)
Let’s face it, we all want to hear “yes” when we ask the tarot a question. And when the Queen of Cups appears, she’s usually giving you the go-ahead.
This caring queen signifies emotions, relationships, and intuition. So, if you’ve asked about a new romance or creative endeavor, her appearance suggests following your heart instead of ego. She’s giving you permission to proceed in a compassionate, heart-centered way.
Should I text him? Does he love me? Is this the love of my life? Should I invest my time and energy into this relationship? In most cases, the card says yes.
In career readings, the Queen of Cups can indicate finding fulfillment through helping others in fields like counseling, teaching, or healthcare. If you’ve been pondering a career change to one of these areas, her presence is a resounding “Yes, go for it!”
On the other hand, if the question involves children or family, the Queen of Cups’ nurturing energy is a positive sign. Her appearance suggests maintaining an open heart, offering emotional support to loved ones, and creating a peaceful home environment.
The Queen of Cups is a “yes” card in a tarot reading. She wants you to strengthen bonds, embrace creativity, develop intuition, and choose paths that align with your core values. When she appears, follow your heart – she’ll be there to guide you.
When The Queen of Cups Means “No” or “Maybe” (Reversed)
Sometimes, the Queen of Cups can indicate uncertainty or hesitance. Her nurturing and caring nature means she wants the best for you, but she may not be convinced the current situation is right.
If she appears in a reversed position, she is telling you, “No, this is not the right choice,” or “No, this is not the way to go.”
And sometimes, rather than an outright “no,” the Queen of Cups may be advising you to slow down and evaluate things more carefully. After all, she reigns over those cups of water, and water is always shifting forms. It goes with the flow of feelings. So even if she seems like she’s hitting you with a no, it’s possible she’s really saying take a beat before deciding yes or no.
If you’re doing a love reading and pulling the Queen of Cups in reverse, I wouldn’t necessarily say it’s a flat-out no. To me, that card reversed means it’s more of a “maybe” or “not right now” type of situation when it comes to love and relationships. Don’t completely rule something out if you get that card.
When the Queen of Cups shows up in your tarot reading, she can seem mysterious and her message unclear. But with some practice reading her clues, you’ll get better at interpreting her signs.
Like I was saying earlier, she symbolizes water – something that’s always moving and evolving. So, while she may say no for now, things could change down the line, and she’ll say yes later on. In general, though, if you ask the cards a question and she shows up in an upright position, that’s a yes.

Barbie has exploded in popularity since the recent release of the Barbie movie starring Margot Robbie as the representation of the classic Mattel doll from the 1950s. However, Barbie's influence has now spread beyond the big screen and into the medical aesthetics world by inspiring the Barbie Botox trend. The procedure is all over Tik Tok and gaining attention from beauty influencers for its ability to relax the shoulders and make the neck look longer, providing a silhouette similar to the elongated neck appearance of a Barbie doll.
What is Barbie Botox?
The Barbie Botox treatment involves injecting botulinum toxin, or a similar muscle-paralyzing neurotoxin, into the trapezius muscles, or traps, with the intent of flattening the shoulders to give the appearance of a longer neck, according to a report from USA Today. Dermatologists told the publication that trapezius Botox, the original name for Barbie Botox, has historically been used in fields like neurology, pain management and orthopedics to treat a host of medical concerns.
CNN reports that the procedure was originally devised to aid the release of severely overworked trapezius muscles which could cause migraines and intense neck tension. The treatment is considered generally safe and can make a subtle difference in appearance, but can be expensive and require multiple treatments.
Aesthetic Uses for Barbie Botox
Although it's impossible to actually elongate the neck, Barbie Botox can relax the shoulders and make the neck appear longer by contrast, and according to USA Today, many patients who seek the treatment strive to achieve as close to a 90-degree angle between their neck and shoulder lines as possible, similar to how the Barbie doll looks, which is aesthetically unnatural to the human form.
Multiple rounds of Barbie Botox over several months are often necessary to see and maintain a difference in appearance. The treatment usually takes about two weeks to notice effects, and one round of treatment can last about three to four months or more, depending on the neurotoxin used. It is also possible to experience non-cosmetic benefits from the procedure like alleviating neck and shoulder tension, muscle spasms, migraines and trapezius hypertrophy.
As with all beauty trends on social media, medical experts recommend patients consider the pros and cons and always consult a medical professional for consultation before the procedure. The trapezius muscle helps keep the head up, so any complications or improper doses could result in posture problems or worse.

After months of watching its proxies wage war across the region, Iran drastically stepped up its own attacks over the last week, carrying out deadly strikes in three neighboring countries.
The first two took place last Monday, when the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps fired ballistic missiles at Erbil in Iraq’s autonomous Kurdistan Region and attacked targets in Syria.
The Syria strike, said the IRGC, hit Islamic State positions and “destroyed the perpetrators of terrorist operations” in Iran, a seeming allusion to a January 3 attack when at least 84 people were killed in two explosions near the grave of General Qassem Soleimani, the head of Iran’s elite Quds Force who was killed in a US drone strike in Iraq four years earlier.
The Islamic State took responsibility for that attack.

Free* reusable plastic-free period products available to collect locally!
Love your period, Love your planet!
Following MTCBCs successful Love your Period, Love your planet! campaign in March 2023 that encouraged residents to switch from disposable to reusable period products, the Council received additional funding from Welsh Governments Period Dignity Grant (PDG) to supply school pupils and residents of Merthyr Tydfil with reusable period products *free of charge whilst stocks last.
Check the list of locations at the bottom of this page where you can collect your free products today.
What is period dignity?
Welsh Government now issues Welsh local authorities with an annual Period Dignity Grant (PDG).The PDG aims to provide all people who menstruate access to period products and awareness about menstruation who might have experienced difficulty doing so, typically because of financial difficulties. A survey by Action Aid UK in 2022 found that nearly one in eight of those surveyed struggled to buy menstrual products in the last six months and this affected their attendance at school or work.
Why should I switch to reusable period products?
Most period products are made from single use plastics. Shockingly, each sanitary pad uses the same amount of plastic as it takes to create 5 carrier bags and even the absorbent part of a tampon (not just the applicator) also contains plastic. Every year 200,000 tonnes of period product waste is landfilled in the UK and around 4kg of period product waste in generated per household per year. That equates to around 114 tonnes of this waste in Merthyr Tydfil alone!
What are the benefits?
Reusable period products can save the user £8-10 per month which is the typical amount spent during each period. Reusable products can also help the environment as they are made from more sustainable materials and, by switching to reusables, you will reduce the demand for single use plastics. Not only that, reusable period products are better for you as they don’t contain plastics, and hazardous industrial chemicals such as BPA, dioxins, pesticides, bleach and perfumes which single use products may contain according to campaign for safe cosmetics.
Reusable period products are better for you, better for your pocket and better for the environment so why not try switching today!

Market Financial Solutions has been added to In Partnership’s panel of lenders.
Founded in 2000, In Partnership is one of the UK’s leading financial advice networks, providing a whole-of-market service to its members that allow them to make the best product match for their clients’ needs. In Partnership’s mortgage advisers will now be able to access Market Financial Solutions’ wide range of bridging loans and buy-to-let (BTL) mortgages.
Founded in 2006, London-based lender Market Financial Solutions specialises in handling large and complex loans at pace, offering loans of up to £50 million with terms between three and 24 months.
Market Financial Solutions’ experience, coupled with the strength of its funding lines, ensures it can provide speed and certainty to brokers and borrowers.
Its products are also highly flexible. For instance, as well as reducing its bridging rates in June and again in September, Market Financial Solutions recently added a new ‘Bridge Fusion’ product to its offering, which is a hybrid of a bridging loan and a longer-term BTL mortgage. With pay rates starting from 3.09% +BBR, and an LTV of up to 75% and a maximum loan size of £20 million, In Partnership’s network of intermediaries can use this product on commercial, mixed use and residential properties.
To help maximise their leverage and loan size, Market Financial Solutions’ clients can also use methods such as deferred interest, rolled-up interest and top-slicing, which are options on its BTL mortgage range already.
Karen Rodrigues, Head of Sales at Market Financial Solutions, said: “We’re always looking for new lender panels to join, and we are really excited to working with In Partnership’s advisers to help them place even the most complex of cases.
“In the current economic climate, we know that brokers are in need of flexibility, which is why we are committed to providing tailored solutions that meet their clients’ evolving needs. Our new ‘Bridge Fusion’ product is a clear example of this, and I look forward to seeing it be used by a broader network of intermediaries in the months ahead. Alongside all our other bridging and BTL products, we’re on hand to provide the support and products that brokers and their clients will need to navigate the coming months with confidence.”
Tim Coghill, Head of Strategic Partnerships at In Partnership, added: “Market Financial Solutions are well-known for their market-leading range of bridging and BTL products, so I’m sure that our members will benefit greatly from this exciting new partnership. In the current transitional economic and political climate, Market Financial Solutions’ dedication to offering both certainty and flexibility is precisely what our advisers are after. I look forward to seeing our network make use of their financial products to better serve the needs of their clients.”

The right candidate is just a few clicks away.
PageGroup changes lives for people through creating opportunity to reach potential.
If you have any questions, we’re here to help.
A Product Owner will be a versatile individual who has a strong input in all aspects of bringing the concept of a product into reality. Whether dealing with goods or services, the Product Owner will need to liaise with various interested parties, including designers, marketers, and departmental managers. This is a varied role and one that brings with it several tangible rewards.
There are several important responsibilities for a Product Owner in IT, including:
Successful Product Owners are highly motivated individuals who have something of a sixth sense when it comes to understanding the needs of the market. They will need to be highly flexible in their approach, able to think on their feet and adept at communicating their visions to others, including both end users and senior management.
In many cases, new products that hit the ground running and prove to be exceptionally popular can become almost obsolete in just a year or two, so Product Managers will always be thinking about what comes next. They combine the skills of traditional Business Analysts and Project Managers and mould them into a powerful force for constant change.
It is important for Product Owners to provide a crucial link between all stages of a product’s development, so they need to be equally adept at listening as they are at talking. The direction that a product takes on its journey, and the growth that results from it, are key to the success of the Product Owner.
Technical skills are of a little less importance for an IT Product Owner as they might be for other roles, but some knowledge of relevant applications will be a big help to a candidate. They include examples of scrum and agile project management applications and processes, for example, as well as UX/UI, programming, networks, and cloud computing. Technically sound rather than technically expert would be the best describe of the requirements in the role of project owner.
Strong academic background will help with applications, but employers in many cases are looking more for the right personality rather than the right qualifications. A university degree in any subject will sometimes be a requirement, but this isn’t always the case. Experience in similar roles will also be seen as a major benefit to the candidate.
Mapping out a career path after being a Product Owner can be interesting. There are several excellent roles which could become a possibility, including those of Senior Product Owner, Scrum Master, Lead Product Manager, Portfolio Manager, Product Director and Chief Product Officer.
Product Owners are in great demand at the moment, and the salary and benefits packages will underline that demand.

TULSA, Okla. — A 28-year-old man facing federal charges in a pipe bomb explosion outside a northeast Oklahoma Air Force recruiting center "turned to hate" after he couldn't complete the training required to become a certified electrician in that branch of the military, federal prosecutors said Wednesday.
Authorities offered a first glimpse of what they say drove Benjamin Don Roden to plant the bomb late Monday at the recruiting center in suburban Tulsa.
Rejected and out of work, authorities said, the decorated former airman harbored a grudge against the Air Force, and also began blaming that military branch for blocking his attempt to join the U.S. Marines.
"He had every intention of becoming an electrician," said acting U.S. Attorney Loretta Radford. "When that didn't come to be, that's when he turned to hate."
Photo Credit: Tulsa County Sheriffs Office via AP
An affidavit filed Wednesday by federal investigators documents Roden's rambling, profanity-laced letters they say he mailed to superiors, blaming the federal government for using "special warfare tactics and spying to attempt to drive these so-called inadequate performers" out of the service.
"In my case, they have also affected my ability to get a job," investigators said Roden wrote.
The documents also detail a cryptic Facebook post Roden made a day before the bomb exploded. Federal prosecutors now believe he had slashed the tires and busted the windows of a recruiter's car parked at the same center on Sunday.
"That government vehicle looks beautiful setting outside that office in (sic) tulsa," Roden posted Sunday. "That is how I am going to make up for 2 years 7 months without a job and (sic) harrassment."
A day later, the pipe bomb exploded in the Tulsa suburb of Bixby, blowing the door off the recruiting center. The building was closed at the time and no one was injured, authorities said.
When authorities arrested Roden on Tuesday, they said they searched his motorcycle and apartment and discovered a bag containing two pipe bombs, materials used to make explosive devices, a chamber-loaded .45 caliber handgun with ammunition, an AR-15 assault-style rifle, more than $3,800 in U.S. currency and an application for a German national visa, according to the affidavit.
Roden made his first appearance in federal court Wednesday, acknowledging before U.S. Magistrate Judge Frank H. McCarthy in one-word sentences that he understood the charges against him, which include using an explosive to commit a federal felony, destruction of federal property and malicious damage to federal property by use of explosive.
Roden will remain in custody at least until Friday, when McCarthy set a bond hearing. Roden's federal public defender, Whitney R. Mauldin, declined to comment on the case after the hearing. Several messages left at numbers listed for Roden's mother and sister were not immediately returned Wednesday.
Radford said the case is still being investigated and plans to submit evidence to a grand jury.
FBI agent Jessi Rice had said Tuesday that federal authorities were no longer investigating the pipe bomb as an act of domestic terrorism, and that the blast could have been the work of a disgruntled employee or a prank. But Radford refused to discount any scenario.
"While we don't believe there is evidence of domestic terrorism, we also don't want to rule out that possibility," Radford said.
The charges Roden faces belie what initially appeared to be a successful stint in the Air Force, where he was deployed and received several medals for his service.
Oklahoma Air National Guard Capt. Jennifer Proctor said Roden enlisted for Air Force active duty in April 2012 and joined the state's air national guard in October 2014.
Proctor said Roden had been a senior airman whose job involved fire protection, but that he was discharged from the air national guard's Tulsa-based 138th Fighter Wing in April. She did not provide a reason for his discharge.
Roden also received several decorations, including the Global War on Terrorism Expeditionary Medal, Proctor said. The medal is awarded to military members who have deployed overseas in direct service to the war on terror since the Sept. 11 attacks. Roden also received the Air Force Expeditionary Service Ribbon with gold border, with the border signifying that he was in a combat zone, she said.
Associated Press researcher Rhonda Shafner in New York and writer Tim Talley in Oklahoma City contributed to this report.

Press Release: Company Launches New Line of Geology Kits - May 2008
Contact: Jennifer Fortney
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
May 1, 2008
NEW COMPANY AIMS TO BOOST ELEMENTARY STUDENTS’ INTEREST IN SCIENCE,
PREPARE FOR FUTURE CAREERS
Mini Me Geology Offers Products, Curriculum and Projects to Encourage Learning in
the Classroom and Out
Mt. Pleasant, SC (May 2008) Recent studies not only show American students scoring lower on science and math exams, but that teachers spend anywhere from two to no hours a week on science education, due to the national emphasis on No Child Left Behind. To fill the void, Mini Me Geology (www.MiniMeGeology.com) has created a unique blend of fun and learning for children by launching a one-stop geology education shop for parents, children and educators.
It all started when Tracy Barnhart and her husband were asked to discuss their careers at their son’s kindergarten class. Her husband works in radio broadcasting and she, at the time, used her expertise in geology at an environmental consulting firm. She quickly considered that the young children would probably not understand what she did at her firm, so she gathered up a variety of rocks, minerals and some gemstones to teach them about rocks and what a geologist is. The children were thrilled and she allowed them to take the rock samples home.
“After the experience, I began to think about the children’s reactions and the fact that there isn’t much taught about geology in early elementary school – the age when children are typically really interested in rocks and minerals,” said Barnhart Founder/Owner of Mini Me Geology. “In first grade my son completed only a brief study on rocks but it included very little information. After that he really didn’t have any study on the subject at all and science is part of our everyday lives.” It gave Barnhart an idea.
In 2006, Barnhart cut back her hours at the environmental firm and started Mini Me Geology (www.minimegeology.com). She realized that her mission as a professional geologist was to show kids and adults the wonders of Earth.
Mini Me Geology is a site where children, parents and educators can come to learn not only about great rocks and minerals but also receive free information about the science of geology. The site offers rock and mineral samples from around the world and kits not available anywhere else, project ideas and curriculum for the class or home, “Ask a Geologist”, an interactive site with games and puzzles to encourage learning, Rockland Gazette newsletter, and more.
“Most of our requests come from children looking for rocks and minerals that can’t readily be found in their area. It’s nice to know that we are contributing to their education by making these available to people across the country.”
Since starting the business, Barnhart has received considerably positive feedback from parents, including those that home school, and educators about Mini Me Geology emphasizing that she offers more than just a box of rocks, but a real opportunity for children to interact, experience and learn.
“Our site is specifically designed for kids because there are so many neat things about rocks and minerals that young kids can understand without gimmicks and without being bored,” says Barnhart. “But we also provide specific information and affordable products for educators to create excitement in the classroom.”
About Mini Me Geology
Mini Me Geology is a division of Giverny, Inc. The company’s owner, Tracy Barnhart, has been a geologist for more than 16 years. The company, inspired by her two children and their friends, provides a unique blend of high-quality products with free educational information, uniquely combining rocks, minerals from around the world and other geology related toys with free educational information, free puzzles and free access to the site’s personal geologist. Mini Me Geology is the new destination for kids and parents looking for quality science toys, education and fun, easy-to-understand information.
Mini Me Geology offers “My Rockin’ Collections”, rock kit storage bags, minerals, igneous rocks, metamorphic rocks and sedimentary rocks, and individual rock and mineral samples, are also available through the Web site, and it recently added a new line for the classroom called “School Edition”.

Florida contractors must remain in compliance at all times with both federal and state regulations regarding the removal and disposal of asbestos during renovations and other projects.
The intent of our state’s Department of Environmental Protection’s (DEP) Asbestos National Emissions Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) program is to substantially lower the number of asbestos fibers that are released into the atmosphere during the removal process. There are specific practices that must be followed, according to the Asbestos NESHAP guidelines.
Some single-family homes will come under the Asbestos NESHAP regulations as units in a larger demolition or renovation project. As these contracts can be quite lucrative for South Florida contractors, falling out of compliance with the Asbestos NESHAP regulations can become a nightmare unless the situation is quickly remedied. Not only could you face legal penalties and fines, but the reputation of your company could get dragged through the mud to the point where you can no longer find sufficient work.
Both the federal asbestos regulations and those of the state of Florida can be complex. You could wind up out of compliance without your knowledge due to the unwitting actions of a member of your construction crew. Maybe the disposal site wasn’t certified to accept asbestos or the workers lacked the necessary personal protective equipment (PPE) to work around or with asbestos. Either way, the buck stops with the contractor.
If you have experienced a problem with the regulations regarding asbestos removal and disposal in Florida, you may need to seek the counsel of an experienced construction law attorneys.

Remember The Dead 60s? That’s who I thought about when I heard the Janice Graham Band.
Yesterday, I reviewed the new Hipsters 2 compilation on Acid Jazz, with a track by The Broken Vinyl Club being one of the highlights. So we’re highlighting this very band, who might well be big news later this year.
Nice to discover an interesting new band by accident, as I just did with The Shook-Ups (with a little help of a gig I was sent to plug!)

Mona Canvas Art Prints are selected Illustrated drawings by Ljubljana Artist Zala Česnik, printed on Gallery Quality Canvas/Paper with vibrant colours using fade resisted ink on water basis.
Mona Art Prints are printed on 235/290/345 g/m2 High Quality Matte Textured Gallery Canvas/Paper with Vibrant Colours using Professional Fade Resistant Ink for the Premium Feel and Look. The Illustrations are printed in-house on demand using our professional ImagePROGRAF Canon Printer.
1. When you receive the art print unpack it carefully. Take the art print slowly out of the packaging tube, envelope or box and try to avoid any scratching and bending of the illustration artwork.
2. Unwrap the illustration out of the anti-scratch, water resistant and dust proof wrapping.
21x29,7 and 30x40 artworks require carefully peeling of the see-through wrapping.
If you ordered 30x40, 50x70 or 61x91 art prints or multiple art prints at the same time, you shall receive the artworks either in a tube or bigger box.
In this case, if you’ve got paper artworks, roll them out on a flat, protected, clean surface and weigh them down with some books, while preparing your frame or hanging tools.
Paper art prints are more sensitive than canvas art prints. Canvas paper is more forgiving when it comes to bending due to its structure and how it’s made.
It has almost fabric like structure and canvas texture whose characteristic is the slight protrusion of the fibres that make up the canvas.Therefore bended canvas prints don’t need additional weigh down before framing.
3. While either your paper art prints rest or canvases are waiting, prepare your frames and hanging tools for installation.
4. Before putting the illustration art print into the frame, make sure there is no dust on the glass surface.Best practices are cleaning the whole frame (outer frame + glass) and then waiting for it to dry, before laying down the artwork and closing the frame.

Awesome great quality tools for great price.
These sockets are very well made high quality tools. Very handy in tight places.
The product is definitely worth of buying, thank you guys for making an excellent, awesome sockets set, exceeded my expectations and the customer service bar none!!
AMAZING!!! Gabriel did not question me when I told him my brother got me the wrong gift. Gabriel mailed out the correct tool the same day and also gave me a shipping label for my return. He said I could ship it on my time but since he was so nice I shipped the wrong part the same day. It has been a pleasure! Wish I got a sticker :)
Nice quality item set. Foam labeled insert great for tool box drawer placement. Also, purchased 1/4”, 3/8” and 1/2” drive metric socket & ratchet sets. Found all to be an excellent deal, bang for the buck. Motivx Tools receives a “thumbs up” in my opinion. Highly recommended company!

American Choice Movers
Review made Live: 4/13/2021 1:09:04 AM
We had the best experience with American Choice Movers for our move. Not knowing what to expect, because we have never hired a moving company before. Our concern was if they would show up at all. The manager and the staff was arrived on time, the manager even called to tell me what time they would be arriving, they worked tirelessly the entire time they were here. I would definitely hire them again, it was the best money we spent for our entire move.

Hello, I am Heather. I have been part of the Mill Pond Dental Care team since 2008.
I started at Mill Pond Dental Care as a member of the administrative team but my passion for dentistry and a desire to become more hands with patients took me back to school to become a dental assistant.
I received my Dental Assisting diploma from Medix College in 2016 and have been utilizing my skills ever since!
I grew up in Dorchester but 20 years ago life lead me to live on our now retired dairy farm in Putnam.
If I'm not at the rink in Germany watching my son play hockey or skiing the slopes with my daughter, you will find me on the farm with my Husband and Dixie, our Bernese Mountain Dog, or tending to my chickens and rambunctious goat, Gallagher.
I look forward to seeing you soon!

It’s time to get back into Mythbusters mode. This time, we’re on the hunt for silly nutrition myths. These myths, for some reason (I want to say the internet), have just stuck around for an unnecessarily long period of time, so much so that many people confuse them for facts. Let’s start busting, shall we?
Fat makes you fat
This one just seriously needs to go away. Yes, on the surface it might make sense that eating fat would make you fat but this just couldn’t be further from the truth. Excess calories make you fat. If you consume more calories on a daily basis than you burn, you will get fat. That is the core of all fat loss. Yes, fat has more calories as compared to carbs or protein so maybe that is why people get confused.
Fat, in fact, can be very good for you. Consuming healthy fats like grass-fed steak and butter, seeds, nuts, oils, etc. can do wonders for your body. They are known to reduce the risk of heart disease by lowering cholesterol, they are incredibly good for your hormones and help to keep your joints and immune system healthy. Do not fear the fat, well, except for trans-fats, stay away from those because they will mess you up. Nutrition myths are fun to debunk.
You should eat X amount of meals to lose weight
No. This has been proven to be completely false. The number of meals you eat in a day has no impact on your rate of fat-loss. Eating more meals does not raise your metabolism to any significant degree and you are just stressing yourself out over nothing. It does not matter if you eat 1, 2 or 6 (10? 12?) meals a day. All that matters is that you are hitting your daily calorie and macronutrient goals.
Your body will absorb what it needs and get rid of the rest. Recent studies seem to suggest that skipping a meal or two could actually be good for you because it gives your digestive system a break, allowing you to digest and absorb food and nutrients better (look up intermittent fasting).
Salt is bad for you
This one actually has a bit of truth to it. Regular table salt is most definitely bad for you. It is void of any nutrition and is just full of nasty fillers that will wreak havoc on your body.
Good quality salt, however, can be really good for you. Salts like sea salt, rock salt, etc. are full of vitamins and minerals that help to keep your electrolytes in balance and if you are consuming enough water, blood pressure shouldn’t be a concern, unless of course, you have a pre-existing medical condition, in that case, limit your salt intake.

SPECIAL REPORT: It’s Election Day, and the Race Is (Somewhat) Too Close to Call
With national polls showing an exceptionally close race, voter turnout is key in the battleground states.
By Philip Shea, Associate Editor
The phrase “seemingly endless campaign cycle” is often used to describe the months and years leading up to a presidential election, highlighting the intense weariness most people feel after overexposure to the candidates and their talking points. Yet 2012 was an especially congested campaign year, with total spending by both sides adding up to more than $1.6 billion.
But today, it all ends… at least most of us hope it does. With such a phenomenally close race nationally, many are beginning to assume that a repeat of 2000 is all but inevitable, with squabbles over early voting in Ohio and Florida having already taken place. However, a quick glance at the swing-state polls gives reason to doubt such a terrifying prospect.
While the national numbers show the race pretty much even, at the end of the day, the popular vote does not determine who will occupy 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue. The Electoral College, a system that more and more people are beginning to view as outdated, still decides our presidential elections. And in this category, President Obama has a slight but palpable edge.
This is not to say that GOP challenger Mitt Romney cannot win—far from it. Yet looking at Ohio, the state many consider to be the most crucial battleground, the president has held on to anywhere from a two- to five-point lead over the past month, even after his sub-par debate performance on Oct. 3 in Denver.
In order to win this state, Republicans have to mobilize a fierce, almost unprecedented get-out-the-vote effort before polls close at 7 p.m. And if Romney manages to win Ohio, he will then likely also have to win states like Virginia and Colorado in order to secure the 270 Electoral College votes needed to win the White House. Obama, on the other hand, will likely be able to reach the tipping point of victory simply by winning the Buckeye State.
Meanwhile, on the East Coast, communities in New York and New Jersey are still reeling from the impact of Hurricane Sandy. As of yesterday afternoon, election officials in the Empire State indicated that there may be an extra day of voting in several counties if turnout falls below 25 percent. If such becomes necessary, the extra voting day would take place within 20 days.
Additionally, New Jersey is also giving leverage to those displaced by the storm, allowing e-mail and fax voting for the first time in the state’s history. Technically, these residents will be categorized as “overseas voters,” which allows them to cast their ballots remotely under the law. These electronic ballots must be submitted by no later than 8 p.m.
While it is yet too soon to tell the ultimate effects Hurricane Sandy will have on the final tally, Domenico Montanaro of NBC News estimates that Obama could lose as many as 340,000 votes as a result of the storm. Since New York and New Jersey are traditionally blue states and will likely go for the president regardless, such increases the likelihood of the dreaded Electoral College/popular vote split—in which one candidate wins the presidency by reaching 270 in the Electoral College while losing the overall national vote.
Obviously, the consequences of who ultimately emerges victorious tonight, tomorrow or next month cannot be overstated, as the country truly appears to be at a crossroads. Will the people choose to embrace the government’s role in supplementing and stabilizing the economy, or will a purist free-market approach prevail?
Time will tell, but in the meantime: Get out and vote!

What is a Smart City and how does that impact you?
We can all see these days that there are vast amounts of new technology being installed widespread across our country and the world. Yet most of us are still unaware as to what some of these technological advancements may be for and how that feeds into a Smart City.
The UK Government has declared that its intention is to be digital by default, so could that mean that widespread jobs could be lost to AI? It has also been foretold that this could happen in as little as 3 years from now. The World Economic Forum states that 40% of the jobs we see today could be lost tomorrow. Some of these jobs include receptionists, supermarket workers and many other sectors could be affected. We are already starting to see more unmanned tills in supermarkets and more call centres are leaning on AI.
So how does that impact you and how does that interlink with a Smart City?
The main aspects of a Smart City are based around the enhancement of technology and another term for this is called the 4th Industrial Revolution. The adoption of technology advancements is supported by many, but it can come with unexpected connotations that we may not have considered before.
Here are some examples of Smart Cities technology
- 5G Towers: monopole masts and small cells
- Solar Farms including widespread solar panels placed in fields
- Wind turbines placed in seas and on land
- Increased surveillance
- LED Street Lights
- Smart Poles
- Smart Street Hubs
- Smart Meters
- Smart Motorways
Please note: sometimes the above mentioned technology can be referred to as ‘Green Technology’.
This technology could be seen as assisting with AI to make it easier for everyone, but we could ask ourselves if it is running the risk of more unneeded automation? If that were the case, where does that leave us and our security?
Related Articles & Videos
Stay tuned for our mini bite-sized video clips about Smart Cities which will be broken down sections and uploaded onto our website from time to time.

According to reports, Apple is planning to automatically scan people's iPhones and iCloud storage accounts to identify child pornography content in order to report it to police – or at least this is what the company says is the purpose of this blatant violation of user privacy.
Following a review by an Apple employee, any "flagged" content will be sent off to law enforcement for prosecution. However, the company has not addressed whether or not Apple employees will have the ability to plant child pornography on the iPhones of targeted individuals, another classic ploy by authoritarians.
"I think this is the wrong approach and a setback for people's privacy all over the world," stated Will Cathcart, the head of WhatApp, adding that his company will not be following suit.
If Apple "can scan all the private photos on your phone – even photos you haven't shared with anyone," then "that's not privacy," Cathcart went on to warn.
"People have asked if we'll adopt this system for WhatsApp. The answer is no."
Apple, which is headed up by LGBTQ pervert Tim Cook, says it will screen iPhone photos for child pornography before they are uploaded into the iCloud storage account.
Facebook, Microsoft and Google have all implemented similar systems, which pry into people's private photos after they are uploaded into company servers.
Apple contends that it is fully acceptable to violate people's privacy because child sexual abuse cannot be tolerated. Perhaps Apple needs to dig a little bit deeper into the lives of politicians and corporate heads if it is truly concerned about things like child trafficking and child pornography.
"We've had personal computers for decades and there has never been a mandate to scan the private content of all desktops, laptops or phones globally for unlawful content," Cathcart warns. "It's not how technology built in free countries works."
"This is an Apple built and operated surveillance system that could very easily be used to scan private content for anything they or a government decides it wants to control. Countries where iPhones are sold will have different definitions on what is acceptable."
While any form of child abuse is absolutely repugnant beyond words, steamrolling the Constitution using the stopping of it as an excuse is likewise repugnant, though in a much different way.
If personal privacy goes out the window, and the tech giants obtain an "all-seeing eye" over everything that people do in their daily lives, then freedom and liberty is gone – which is exactly what Apple and the other tech giants want.
Cathcart warns that "there are so many problems" with Apple's approach to this issue that it is difficult to know where to start. Will the software it silently places on people's iPhones have a backdoor allowing hackers to violate it? Will those hackers then plant child pornography material to frame Apple's political foes?
There was actually a time when Apple respected user privacy, but it appears as though things really went south once the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) got involved. It was none other than the FBI that interfered with Apple's plans of old to implement end-to-end encryption with iCloud, killing the project before it could be completed.
Our guess is that the FBI is behind this latest assault on the Fourth Amendment, and is using Apple, Microsoft, Facebook and others to do its unconstitutional bidding.

- General Motors' newest all-electric vehicle and the last of a lineup of new EVs announced for its Cadillac luxury brand is a three-row SUV called Vistiq.
- The 2026 Cadillac Vistiq will arrive in dealer showrooms beginning next year, starting at $78,790.
- The vehicle features a 102-kilowatt-hour battery pack, estimated 300 miles of range, 615 horsepower and 650 pound-feet of torque.
DETROIT — General Motors' newest all-electric vehicle is a three-row SUV for its Cadillac luxury line, which the brand is dubbing a "baby Escalade."
The 2026 Cadillac Vistiq will be the last in a lineup of new EVs in the brand's portfolio when it goes into production and arrives in dealer showrooms beginning in 2025.
Get top local stories in Southern California delivered to you every morning. >Sign up for NBC LA's News Headlines newsletter.
Brad Franz, Cadillac director of marketing, described the new vehicle as being closer to a "baby Escalade" than a larger version of the Lyriq, which was the brand's first EV, in 2022.
"This is an outstanding platform that's a heck of a lot closer to an Escalade than it is to the Lyriq," he said during a media event.
The Vistiq's interior and exterior styling are in line with Cadillac's current and upcoming EVs, including the Lyriq and Escalade IQ. The interior features a long screen across the dashboard, while the exterior includes sleek vertical and horizontal front lights and an illuminated grille.
The vehicle has a 102-kilowatt-hour battery pack and offers 615 horsepower and 650 pound-feet of torque. The Cadillac-estimated range of the vehicle fully charged is 300 miles.
The Vistiq will be sold globally, including in the U.S. and Canada, with production starting in early 2025 at GM's Spring Hill Manufacturing plant in Tennessee. At launch, the Vistiq will offer three trims: Luxury, Sport and Premium Luxury. A top-end "Platinum" trim will be offered starting in summer 2025.
Cadillac previously said it would exclusively offer EVs by 2030, but the brand has since pulled back on that target, saying it will be guided by customer demand.

The 18-year-old plays a brief melody in front of his family, smiles and gets up without speaking in the video posted on his father's Instagram account. The video doesn't indicate where or when it was shot.
“A man of many talents,” the Los Angeles Lakers superstar can be heard saying in the background as Bronny finishes playing with his two younger siblings looking on.

TMZ posted photos of Bronny out to dinner with his family, which it says were taken Friday night. They show the teenager with his father outside celebrity hot spot Giorgio Baldi in Santa Monica.
Wearing black pants and a zip-up hoodie, Bronny carried his phone while standing outside the Italian restaurant.
Bronny was released from the hospital on Thursday. He will continue to undergo tests to determine the cause of his cardiac arrest, which occurred Monday morning during a workout at USC’s Galen Center.

Third-party, direct-to-consumer virtual visits are substantially less costly to insurers than care provided in traditional settings, although the scope of care is narrower. Among beneficiaries of a large insurer, use of virtual visits was associated with lower utilization of primary care, retail clinic and urgent care, and ED visits. If causal, these findings suggest that virtual visits may substitute rather than add to in-person care in some settings. Prior to the pandemic, six states had telemedicine parity laws, which mandate that private insurers reimburse providers equally for in-person and telehealth services. This has potential implications for relative expenditures for virtual visits, at least for those offered by primary care offices rather than direct-to-consumer vendors.
Further, our findings support that DTC virtual visits offer comparable quality of care for most dimensions of antibiotic management, but support the need for diagnostic testing solutions for patients using virtual visits. This indicates greater capacity and technologies to offer convenient lab tests to patients who opt for virtual visits.
There are important limitations of our proposed analysis: While the data sets contain considerable detail, as is common with claims databases, they lack information on race/ethnicity, income and education. The analysis included a single national insurer and third-party vendor, and data from claims which may lack allergy information. Finally, results are observational and may not generalize to populations that are not privately insured.

To provide consistency for our licensees and among the many continuing education providers, following is important information and Board requirements:
The first step to becoming a CE Provider for the NC Irrigation Contractors’ Licensing Board is to contact the Board’s Administrator to have an account created. To access your account, you will be given a user name and password. The Board Administrator is available to guide you through the process if needed.
The Continuing Education Advisory Committee (CEAC) meets every last Wednesday of the month. In November and December they may meet the second or third Wednesday, depending upon the holidays. Once the CEAC has reviewed the continuing education applications, the CE Provider will receive an email notification as to whether the course has been approved, deferred, or denied, as well as comments to explain the decision, if necessary. A very important part of the application process is to provide an outline, brochure, agenda, or some other document that clearly describes what will be taught, the start and end time of each session, and the start and end time for breaks and meals, if applicable.
As a continuing education provider, you must attest that you will maintain attendance records for each of the course(s) taught for two years after the date of the course. It is also your responsibility to provide each attendee with a proof of attendance form, provided by NCICLB. All attendance sheets must be signed by the licensee at the time of check out if it is an in person class. Anyone leaving a class early should not receive a proof of attendance.
Licensees are required to earn ten (10) continuing education credits each year by December 31. Six (6) credits must be education with direct relation to the performance of irrigation, and four (4) credits must be related to general business practices. This can include accounting, finance, business planning, human resources, the use of computers, etc.
50 minutes of education equals 1 hour of credit.
Breaks during courses shall not be counted towards CEU credit.
Credit shall not be given to the licensee for courses repeated within a consecutive three year period.
If providing an online or virtual class, there must be a provision for making sure everyone that signs into the class remains in attendance throughout the entire session. Depending upon how many individuals and how long the session lasts, you should include a short quiz in the middle and the end of the course, or take attendance before the session ends.
It is extremely important that if you are providing more than one online/virtual event at the same time that a licensee can not sign in to both/more than one at a time.
No education should include the sales or promotion of a particular product.

Episode 3: Nemko's internationalisation journey
It was in 1992 that the first Nemko engineer was stationed in San Diego. That was the beginning of Nemko's international expansion. With only two people in two different countries, Nemko started its international expansion.
Episode 4: From the first multinational certification cooperation in the world, Emko, to the international CB scheme
In this fourth episode of Nemko's history we will hear about how Nemko moved from the Emko scheme to the Cenelec Certificatio Agreement and then again to the international CB scheme. Did you know that Nemko was actually among the founding members of all these schemes?
Episode 5: How and when did Nemko Direct start?
Nemko Direct was essential to Nemko's success. Hear more about the start of Nemko's global market access service in this episode, where we'll also share that the idea for the name 'Nemko Direct' is based on a request from the IT giant Compac.
Episode 6: An independent private foundation
The success of Nemko Direct made Nemko an interesting organisation for some of our large competitors.

Domino’s Pizza must make its website and mobile app accessible to blind people using screen-reading software, after a court ruling in the US.
It follows a complaint from a blind customer who said he first struggled to change toppings and then was unable to complete a pizza’s purchase using the company’s iPhone app.
Guillermo Robles, a blind man, filed a federal lawsuit against Domino’s in September 2016, claiming the company stopped him twice when he attempted to order a customised pizza.
Its website and mobile app didn’t work with screen-reading software, which vocalizes visual information on websites.
The company also offered online-only discounts, which Robles said were effectively off-limits for him.
The plaintiff’s case was initially dismissed in 2017 but was successful on appeal.
It may now set a precedent for others.
He highlighted that Apple’s smartphones featured built-in screen-reading software to help their visually impaired owners use the internet.
However, the software relies on images and other visual elements within a website or app being tagged with text.
In the UK, the Royal National Institute of Blind People also welcomed the ruling.
“All organisations have a responsibility under the Equality Act 2010 to ensure that their websites and apps can be used by blind and partially sighted people, including those who use screen readers,” a spokeswoman told the BBC.
“It’s a perennial problem here in the UK and one we continue to address by working with companies to provide consultancy around web accessibility, as well as challenging them where necessary.”
A spokeswoman for Domino’s was unable to comment.

Infant sleep hygiene counseling (sleep trial): protocol of a randomized controlled trial.
Santos IS., Bassani DG., Matijasevich A., Halal CS., Del-Ponte B., da Cruz SH., Anselmi L., Albernaz E., Fernandes M., Tovo-Rodrigues L., Silveira MF., Hallal PC.
BACKGROUND: Sleep problems in childhood have been found to be associated with memory and learning impairments, irritability, difficulties in mood modulation, attention and behavioral problems, hyperactivity and impulsivity. Short sleep duration has been found to be associated with overweight and obesity in childhood. This paper describes the protocol of a behavioral intervention planned to promote healthier sleep in infants. METHODS: The study is a 1:1 parallel group single-blinded randomized controlled trial enrolling a total of 552 infants at 3 months of age. The main eligibility criterion is maternal report of the infant's sleep lasting on average less than 15 h per 24 h (daytime and nighttime sleep). Following block randomization, trained fieldworkers conduct home visits of the intervention group mothers and provide standardized advice on general practices that promote infant's self-regulated sleep. A booklet with the intervention content to aid the mother in implementing the intervention was developed and is given to the mothers in the intervention arm. In the two days following the home visit the intervention mothers receive daily telephone calls for intervention reinforcement and at day 3 the fieldworkers conduct a reinforcement visit to support mothers' compliance with the intervention. The main outcome assessed is the between group difference in average nighttime self-regulated sleep duration (the maximum amount of time the child stays asleep or awake without awakening the parents), at ages 6, 12 and 24 months, evaluated by means of actigraphy, activity diary records and questionnaires. The secondary outcomes are conditional linear growth between age 3-12 and 12-24 months and neurocognitive development at ages 12 and 24 months. DISCUSSION: The negative impact of inadequate and insufficient sleep on children's physical and mental health are unquestionable, as well as its impact on cognitive function, academic performance and behavior, all of these being factors to which children in low- and middle-income countries are at higher risk. Behavioral interventions targeting mothers and young children that can be delivered inexpensively and not requiring specialized training can help prevent future issues by reducing the risk to which these children are exposed. TRIAL REGISTRATION: ClinicalTrial.gov NCT02788630 registered on 14 June 2016 (retrospectively registered).

Why You Need a Book?
In today's digital world, standing out is no longer just an option: it's a necessity for survival. It's no secret expert recognition provides a strong advantage for getting the upper hand on the competition. Let's face it, most people know how to use Google to find real estate agents, chiropractors, accountants, or attorneys. But the fact is, most have no idea how to pick the right person to work with. What they typically see are a number of similar websites, all offering similar products or services, with little differences. How do prospects know who to select? One thing they know do know - they want to work with an "Expert." When prospects see you as the "Expert," it makes it easy for them to choose you over the competition. To truly differentiate yourself, you need to establish yourself as an expert. And what better way to do so than by becoming a published author? A book is not just a marketing tool: it's a statement of your expertise and authority. |

As shoppers, we have learned to be wary of what we purchase and how. We research information and find the ‘best’ products for ourselves and with a heavy dependency on technology, we can now do this wherever we have access to WiFi or data. Six out of 10 mobile users begin their shopping journey on one device, but continue or finish on a different one. Mobile devices provide us convenient access to any form of content, which leads us to incorporate mobile-shopping into our habitual routines.
Habitual routines can actually benefit retailers, especially for those in a competitive environment. Two positive things happen: one, the habitual interactions provide consumers convenience, reinforcing their experiential state of being in a relationship with a brand, which leads to loyalty. Two, the dependency on their habitual routines will mean that consumers are relying on their automatic thinking and will therefore, spend less time considering alterative brands.
Brainwashing that has gone green
There has been an increasing amount of warnings about climate change and its rash consequences in the media. For some, attempts to preserve the Earth for the future generations became a cool trend. As a result of this, all sorts of green products have been filling the shelves.
But what makes a green product? Does a green can make a soft drink environmentally-friendly? Can we call a regular shampoo a green product by adding one natural ingredient? Such a practice of highlighting only a few green attributes is called greenwashing.
Every day, companies and brands vie for the attention of consumers. Through a consumer’s interaction with a brand’s product, this brand wants to become an inseparable part of the consumer’s life.
But should brands focus on the individual consumer? What if a brand can become an inseparable part of the consumer’s relationships – for example, with a spouse? It appeared that brands can benefit from focusing on couples and their shared usage of brands’ products through becoming a significant part of their shared identity narrative.
What is the perfect face for a beauty ad? And which would you use for domestic violence prevention?
In advertising, the primary mission is to promote products or to convey ideas using persuasive language and images. Faces are a key aspect of ads and are often portrayed differently depending on the product advertised and message communicated. But what makes a face visually persuasive?
Have you ever been to a pub with the intention of doing just a few drinks and going home early, only to stay until closing time? A lot of people probably have. If you are one of them, have you ever wondered why you've indulged yourself much more than intended? There are several excuses you could tell yourself to justify staying longer than you should have. Maybe it was a really good night out and it would have been a shame to miss it. Maybe the DJ was playing your favorite music. Or maybe you're just bad at planning.
A less common excuse is the dim lighting in the pub. Few people will believe you if you tell them that your hangover is caused by the lighting in the pub. However, research has indicated that this may have a significant effect on your night out after all. It turns out that the amount of light does more than just setting the atmosphere.

In a world that often encourages us to seek adventure beyond our front door, there is a quiet revolution happening right at home. Whether by choice or circumstance, many of us are rediscovering the pleasures and possibilities of home activities. From creative pursuits to relaxation techniques, the range of activities available within our four walls is as vast as it is rewarding.
Creativity knows no bounds when it comes to home activities. For those artistically inclined, painting, sketching, or crafting can turn a dull afternoon into a canvas of vibrant expression. Even if you don’t consider yourself an artist, exploring these activities can be incredibly therapeutic and satisfying.
DIY Projects: From refurbishing old furniture to creating handmade decorations, do-it-yourself projects are a wonderful way to unleash creativity and add a personal touch to your living space.
Cooking and Baking: The kitchen becomes a playground for culinary exploration. Trying new recipes, experimenting with flavors, and perfecting baking techniques can be both enjoyable and deliciously rewarding.
Cultivating Mind and Body
Taking care of ourselves physically and mentally is crucial, and home activities provide ample opportunities for self-care and personal growth.
Exercise and Yoga: Home workouts have gained popularity, offering flexibility and privacy. Yoga, in particular, blends physical exercise with mental relaxation, promoting holistic well-being.
Reading and Learning: Dive into a good book or pursue online courses in subjects that pique your interest. Learning a new language or exploring academic topics can be intellectually stimulating and expand your horizons.
Connecting with Others
Home activities need not be solitary endeavors. They can also be a means to connect with family, friends, or even new acquaintances.
Game Nights: Whether board games, video games, or puzzles, game nights are a fun way to bond with loved ones and foster friendly competition.
Virtual Hangouts: In today’s digital age, connecting with friends and family has never been easier. Virtual gatherings for movie nights, book clubs, or casual chats can bridge distances and strengthen relationships.
Finding Peace and Relaxation
Amid the hustle and bustle of daily life, home can serve as a sanctuary for relaxation and rejuvenation.
Meditation and Mindfulness: Setting aside time for meditation or practicing mindfulness techniques can reduce stress and enhance emotional well-being.
Gardening: Tending to indoor plants or nurturing a small garden can bring a sense of tranquility and connection to nature, even in urban settings.
In essence, home activities offer more than just a way to pass the time; they enrich our lives in countless ways. Whether you’re discovering a new hobby, prioritizing self-care, strengthening relationships, or simply enjoying moments of peace, the home becomes a canvas upon which we paint our experiences and cultivate our well-being.
As we continue to navigate the complexities of modern life, perhaps the greatest lesson to be learned from home activities is that joy, fulfillment, and growth can flourish wherever we are. So, why not embrace the possibilities that lie within our own four walls and let home become not just a place we reside, but a space where life in all its richness unfolds?

Chasyr has gained a reputation for being the new and improved rideshare option everyone has been anxiously waiting for. Like a vindicating cowboy hero, they have come to fight for justice and stand for freedom, as they set the bar where others will have to rise to meet it. They have already begun the process of building a prototype that will help them secure the insurance and licensing they need to become a TNC in California. They have an active team of forward-thinkers that is growing by the day. Their newest addition, Nav Dhinsa, brings over 10 years of experience as a former employee of ride-hailing industry giants like Addison Lee and Gett.
“Chasyr has the ability to distribute value much more fairly between the company, driver and user than any of its competitors. Chasyr has the potential to disrupt the disrupters.” – Nav Dhinsa
One of the most intriguing elements in Chasyr’s business model is the implementation of cryptocurrency. They confirmed speculation of an ICO at TechCrunch Disrupt in September. Chasyr tokens will be used for ride credits and tipping. Although the tokens will not be required to use Chasyr, they intend to make the experience of using cryptocurrency a fun and organic one. Both riders and drivers will be given tokens as rewards for joining Chasyr and accomplishing milestones within the app. This seems like a fun way to get a hold of some crypto if you’ve never owned any. As for existing crypto “hodlers”, they will now have another option for using their crypto in the sharing economy.
Chasyr has added a FAQ page to their site with good news for their future users. Ever have to pay $925 for a ride because of surging? Not anymore. Riders will be happy to know that with Chasyr they can forget about surge pricing. Drivers no longer need to wait in their cars with bated breath for surge or “primetime” because they will still be making a nice profit without it. Driver fees will only be 15%. This is half of what the current rideshare platforms take from their drivers.
These two aspects alone will already be great advantages for choosing Chasyr over current rideshare options. The good news does not stop there either. As stated in their global Facebook group, they have plans to decrease fees to as low as 5% once their token alone can boost the self-sustainable company they aim to be.
The Chasyr team is passionate and has everyone’s best interests in mind. They have even alluded in their Slack channel to have more tricks up their sleeves. They are working swiftly and making moves. Join their email list on their website to stay up to date with all of their progress and announcements. It is only a matter of time for Chasyr to become the disrupter everyone says they will be.

New York Seeks to Limit Addictive Social Media Feeds
(NEWSnet/AP) — Proposed legislation in New York aims to limit how online platforms, such as Instagram and YouTube, collect and share children's personal information and let parents keep their kids from being bombarded by "addictive" feeds from accounts they don't follow.
The bills offered by state leaders aim to protect young people from features designed to keep them endlessly scrolling, endangering their mental health and development, Attorney General Letitia James said.
The regulations sought by James and Gov. Kathy Hochul are similar to rules already in place in Europe, where violations could incur fines worth a percentage of revenue, which could run into the billions of dollars for wealthy tech companies.
The legislation in New York also follows actions taken by other U.S. states this year to curb social media use among children.
The U.S. Supreme Court is preparing to decide whether state attempts to regulate social media platforms violate the Constitution. The justices will review two laws from Florida and Texas that mostly aim to prevent social platforms from censoring users based on their viewpoints.

U.S. Secretary of State, Antony Blinken, has questioned the "legitimacy and impartiality" of an International Criminal Court investigation that has led to a request for arrest warrants for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant.
ICC prosecutor, Karim Khan, was scheduled to visit Israel next week to discuss the investigation and hear the Israeli government's views, Blinken said. ICC officials were set to fly to Israel on Monday, May 20, to arrange Khan's visit.
However, Israel was informed that the delegation would not travel after Karim Khan announced his decision in an interview with CNN.
“These and other circumstances call into question the legitimacy and impartiality of the investigation,” Blinken stated, adding that the U.S. believes the ICC does not have jurisdiction in this matter.
Blinken said the U.S. "strongly rejects" the ICC's request to issue arrest warrants for Israeli leaders as well as Hamas leaders. He added that this move jeopardizes ongoing efforts to reach a ceasefire, facilitate the release of hostages, and increase humanitarian aid to Gazans.

The 21st Century Idea Act would mandate dot-gov improvements including allowing e-signatures for citizen services.
The House Oversight and Government Reform Committee forwarded two bills Thursday aimed at upgrading and securing federal technology.
The first bill, the 21st Century Integrated Digital Experience, or 21st Century IDEA, Act, would require federal agencies to shutter or consolidate outdated or duplicative websites and ensure they’re accessible to people with disabilities.
The bill, sponsored by Rep. Ro Khanna, D-Calif., also requires that sites can be reached securely, presumably with HTTPS encryption.
Most of those measures have already been mandated through government policy, but their implementation is spotty across the government’s web presence and they aren’t codified in legislation.
The bill mandates the improvements for new websites and orders agencies to create a plan for implementing them on existing sites.
It also requires agencies to offer digital versions of all paper-based citizen services whenever possible and to accept electronic signatures from citizens.
The Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee Wednesday advanced similar legislation introduced by Sen. Rob Portman, R-Ohio.
The second Federal CIO Authorization Act would formally create federal chief information officer and chief information security officer positions and make both of them presidential appointees.
Both positions currently exist with those names inside the Office of Management and Budget, but the CIO’s office is formally known as the Office of E-Government and Information Technology and the CISO position isn’t required by legislation.
The bill, introduced by Reps. Will Hurd, R-Texas, and Robin Kelly, D-Ill., establishes the federal CIO as the top civilian tech official, and directs the CIO to “submit a proposal to Congress for consolidating and streamlining IT across federal agencies.”
Suzette Kent currently serves as the federal CIO. Grant Schneider was named federal CISO in July.
The IDEA Act passed on a voice vote. The CIO Authorization Act passed by unanimous consent.

Diamond Trust of London — sorry, Jason Rohrer with Music by Tom Bailey: Diamond Trust of London — passed Nintendo's approval process recently and now sits on the verge of release. Before it gets there, though, there's the small matter of money, and that's where crowdfunding site Kickstarter comes in.
Citing Nintendo's "large manufacturing minimum", Rohrer is inviting backers to pledge a minimum of $5 towards an ultimate goal of $78,715 to get the project off the ground. $5 gets you a photocopied memo and $35 gets you a copy of the game upon release, but the rewards for a top-level pledge of $10,000 sounds most exciting:
A hand-crafted Diamond Trust of London mega archive box containing a huge collection of artifacts that is yet even more f************g than what is in the previous reward, PLUS special funding credit on the back of the box, PLUS two boxed copies of the limited edition, AND one of your copies will have a super-low sequence number (in the range #2 to #5). AND all of it HAND DELIVERED to you in your town anywhere in the world by masterminds Jason Rohrer and Tom Bailey. You will get an anonymous letter telling you to go to a particular pay phone at a particular time and await further instructions...
$10,000 to get these two at your door? That's got to be worth it. Head over and donate if you want to get involved.

Stabilizing the riverbank for continued accessRivers naturally erode the soil along their banks. Having infrastructure like the Towpath Trail and railroad next to the river makes it challenging to maintain them. The good news is that Cuyahoga Valley National Park received funding from the Great American Outdoors Act’s Legacy Restoration Fund to stabilize eight locations along the Cuyahoga River. Work began in 2023 and is expected to continue through 2028. For more information check out our news releases below. Expect closures of the Towpath Trail as we complete the work at each site. Other ongoing and upcoming restoration projects Workers have installed sub-surface containment cells that collect and hold run-off from the parking area. This allows for greater recharge, reduces discharge of stormwater run-off directly to the river, and improves water quality.
The full scope of work is still being determined. Closures of the Towpath Trail and Boston Trailhead are possible.
The park is improving existing river access and planning new places for wildlife viewing, paddling, and fishing along the Cuyahoga River Water Trail.
In recent years, river access sites have been renovated at the Station Road Bridge River Access and Boston Store River Access. At the Lock 39 River Access, we have removed invasive plants and replanted with native ones. This will improve wildlife habitat and better control soil erosion. Phase two will involve improving the river access trail, adding signage to delineate access, and eventually barnstones to improve paddler's ability to enter and exit the river at Lock 39. See the current conditions at our Lock 39 Photo Gallery. This project will reshape areas of the floodplain on both sides of the Cuyahoga River one mile south from Station Road Bridge. Work will impact Towpath Trail access and Station Road Bridge Trailhead parking. It might affect river access. Towpath Trail closures between Station Road Bridge and Red Lock trailheads are possible.
Evaluation and mitigation of contamination and contaminated soils associated with the historic Jaite Paper Mill. Work will involve closures to the Towpath and Valley trails between Boston and Red Lock trailheads.

NZ Warriors have confirmed 2018 Intrust Super Premiership Team of the Year member Adam Keighran's arrival to the club ahead of the new year.
Named at centre amongst last season's honorary best, the versatile back looks likely to feature in the club's ISP halves pairing, following Mason Lino's move to Newcastle.
Alongside Keighran, Western Suburbs-turn-Mounties centre Taane Milne was also announced as a Warrior for 2019, albeit only on a train and trial contract.
Back in Sydney, ex-Dragon Reuben Garrick has found a new home on the Northern Beaches – the 21-year-old, NSWRL Origin Pathways player joining Manly Warringah's NRL Top 30.
North of the Tweed River, Brisbane Broncos this week confirmed the signing of touted halfback Sean O'Sullivan on a two-year deal from the Sydney Roosters.
O'Sullivan won man of the match honours in the ISP NSW Residents' 36-20 win over ISC Qld Residents, before later in the season figuring prominently for the Wyong Roos.
Turning out for the Junior Kangaroos in October, O'Sullivan will vie with Kiwis half Kodi Nikorima for a No.7 berth next season.
"I'm a halfback and played it all my life, so I see myself as a genuine number seven. "It will be good to learn off Kodi and 'Milf'," the 20-year-old told broncos.com.au upon his arrival.
"We have a lot of powerful big 'middles', so if I get the [NRL] chance it will help me being behind such a strong pack."
Also in Queensland, North Sydney Bears regular Jesse Arthars will continue his search for an NRL debut at the Gold Coast Titans.
"Jesse is a young player who has been part of two good rugby league systems and I'm looking forward to seeing how he continues to grow as a player," Titans coach Garth Brennan said of Arthars' arrival.
"Jesse has the ability to play fullback, centre or wing. He will add some depth and versatility to the Titans squad for 2019.
"I'm sure he'll be hungry to perform well with the hope of achieving his goal of making his NRL debut."
Elsewhere, North Sydney Bears have confirmed that Brad Deitz will return to the club in 2019, having turned out for the Wentworthville Magpies in 2018.
The Cabramatta junior was the Bears' captain prior to his departure, overseeing the side's run into the 2017 ISP finals series.
"I'm very happy to back with the Bears for 2019. The Club is building towards a big year with the new Roosters partnership, Jason Taylor coming on as coach and our pathways providing opportunities for up and coming players. This Club has a great culture and I can't wait to be back at North Sydney Oval," Deitz told the Bears' website.
2019 Squad Updates
8 November – Adam Keighran announced as a Warrior, O'Sullivan heads North
9 October – Wests Tigers promote three, Dragons welcome new trio
25 September – Lino links with Knights
5 September – Kurt Dillon, Bayley Sironen join Rabbitohs

Based on 7,132 Ratings
I have dealt with these people for well over three years and I can honestly say that they have provided excellent service and amazing prices for the medications I receive. I would suggest anyone interested in reducing the cost of their medications that they get online with offshore Cheap meds
OCM is, in my opinion, the very best place to shop for meds online. They sell top quality medicine at an extremely lower price than I get with my insurance. Delivery is fast considering where it comes from offshore. For me, this is the only place to shop for my particule medicine needs.
This is the best place I’ve ever bought meds from. They are honest and affordable. I have the greatest respect for this organization.
I've used Offshore Cheap Meds for over 10 years. The medication works great and the pricing can't be beat. I highly recommend them.
Primarily I was looking for quality meds, FDA approved, and at a price that was reasonable since BC/BS decided that my need for medication was not worth their inclusion of what I needed in my drug plan. The meds from Offshore Cheap Meds cost me $430.00 for a NINETY day supply. Buying this medication without the help of my health insurance here in the USA costs $1325.00 per MONTH, same pills.
I have been a customer since 2017. I have always been satisfied with this pharmacy. The personnel are knowledgable and helpful. I completely recommend OFFSHORE!
Patient, pleasant and helpful staff. OCM will help you through the original order and help you with expired prescriptions with your doctor's office. Delivery comes to your mailbox, which makes it easier to get your medications.
I can't afford to pay the prices the US is charging me for my lifesaving medicine. Even my insurance (Express Scripts) won't help to reduce the price. OCM is a godsend! Their price is saves me over 80% of what Express Scripts and all other US pharmacies charge. I will continue to order from them and highly recommend this company!
Like many of us I was concerned about ordering online from a pharmacy that I had no prior knowledge of their history. I did provide the prescription as requested. I ordered the expensive meds at a very reduced price compared to the prices from Publix and Walmart. The Meds were delivered timely and obviously produced by the same pharmaceutical company. I was very happy with my experience with this company.
This is the 2nd time I have ordered meds and am very pleased. The website is easy to order on, the company emails you when they get the order, when they get the prescription, when they are working to fill the order and finally when it ships with a tracking number. That's a least 3 emails with good information for the customer. The shipping time has been much less than the website states ( to Texas) which is Great. Thank you for saving me alot of money and I will continue to order my inhalor every 3 months
Fantastic prices on meds
Fantastic prices on meds. I get 3 x the amount of meds for what I use to pay for one month.

Web services for accounts payable processing now available in the RCP
Our team continues to work on services which make accounts payable processing easier.
SMBinvoices, the accounts payable processing web application for small and medium companies is now available in the Reseller Control Panel (RCP). This service uses self-learning assisting robots to make accounts payable processing cheaper and easier, with a comfortable and flexible workflow, invoice archiving function and automatic invoice recognition.
API service for automatic invoice recognition is now available for testing
Working with feedback from our customers, we found out that many companies want to use our invoice recognition service with a dedicated API. We have build a service that will allow any company to integrate their own software with our self-learning robots to convert invoices received from suppliers into structured data. The service is currently available in test mode.
We have also developed a PHP client for customers who use PHP.
Currently our research team is focused on training robots to extract as much data from invoices as possible. We released a few new features in February, so now the robots can extract the following data from electronic invoices:
- document total amount
- document number
- invoice date
- invoice due date
- sender IBAN
- payment reference in OGM-VCS format (Belgium)
- identify the document type (invoice, credit note, receipt or other)
Our ambitious goal is to build software which processes 95% of all accounts payable without human involvement.
We invite companies who want to take part in testing and improving this service. To find out more about the service and related requirements, and get the API security key to join the testing, please contact us by e-mail email@example.com.

responsAbility To Invest Up To USD 25 Million In BluSmart
As part of its broader USD 500 million climate investment strategy aimed at actively reducing CO2 emissions in Asia, responsAbility will invest up to USD 25 million on behalf of its investors in BluSmart, India’s EV ride-hailing service and EV charging infrastructure network.
This investment will help BluSmart expand its EV charging infrastructure across India and is a significant step in responsAbility’s mission to mobilize capital and invest in solutions that generate positive societal and environmental impact in emerging markets.
BluSmart currently operates the largest vertically integrated EV ecosystem in Southeast Asia. Its indigenously built, born-electric technology stack operates 6,000 BluSmart EVs and has completed over 11 million all-electric trips, covering 360 million all-electric kilometers, saving 26,000 metric tons of CO2 since inception.
BluSmart also owns and operates 4,000 EV chargers across its 35 EV charging locations spread over 1.4 million square feet in the densely populated megacities of Delhi NCR and Bangalore. BluSmart crossed USD 50 million in annual revenue run-rate and is growing at 100 per cent year-on-year.
Supporting India’s eMobility And EV Charging Infrastructure Ambitions
BluSmart is building an integrated energy infrastructure, mobility and technology business to decarbonize mobility at scale, and these funds will be deployed to build large-scale EV charging superhubs to enable the expansion of its electric ride-hailing service. The investment follows BluSmart’s USD 24 million equity round, which was announced in December 2023. BluSmart has also secured USD 200 million in long-term, sustainable EV asset financing from leading Development Financial Institutions (DFIs).
Co-Founder’s Vision For India’s eMobility Growth
Anmol Singh Jaggi, Co-Founder, BluSmart said, “BluSmart has been at the forefront of India’s EV mission. Since inception, we have made large-scale investments in real EV assets and EV infrastructure with a singular focus on decarbonizing mobility at scale. With responsAbility’s investment and support, we will continue our mission to rapidly scale our iconic 100 per cent EV ride-hailing service and build large EV charging infrastructure for a better, cleaner and a more sustainable future. Backed by some of the largest funds focused on energy infrastructure, energy transition and climate change, this new round marks a significant milestone in BluSmart’s journey to lead India’s transition to a zero-emissions mobility future.”
responsAbility’s Commitment To Reducing Carbon Emissions In Asia
Sameer Tirkar, Principal APAC for Climate Finance at responsAbility said, “BluSmart's pioneering role in reducing carbon emissions in urban transport aligns perfectly with responsAbility’s mission to invest in sustainable businesses that create positive environmental and social impact. We are dedicated to supporting these climate-focused growth companies that are actively reducing CO2 emissions in Asia through targeted investments in low-emission technologies. The BluSmart team has built a commendable EV ride-hailing and EV charging infrastructure business in India and is building world-class electric charging infrastructure, which is key to the rapid adoption of EV penetration in India.”
This investment in BluSmart is in line with responsAbility's ongoing dedication to climate action in Asia, as evidenced by its announcement on 28 November 2023. In collaboration with Germany's development bank KfW and the Dutch development bank FMO, responsAbility launched a USD 500 million climate investment strategy. This strategy, which aims to actively reduce CO2 emissions in Asia, focuses on investments in low-emission technologies.

Primary care physicians (PCPs) are busy people. On average, a primary care doctor or practitioner works over fifty hours per week, seeing around twenty patients per day. That high volume means that most PCPs only have a few minutes of concentrated, one-on-one time with each patient. In order to maximize the benefits of that time, PCPs want effective, helpful solutions that can make their offices, practices, and methods more efficient. From handling paperwork and billing to treating patients and even doing an eye screening, having the right equipment is an essential component of providing good healthcare.
Eye Health and the Direct Ophthalmoscope
Assessing and treating patient health from head to toe means proper screenings of all major bodily systems. Caring for the eyes in particular is a delicate and sometimes difficult task, especially for non-eye-care professionals, as it involves a careful examination of each retina, which is only visible with the help of the proper equipment.
The standard instrument for viewing the retina is the direct ophthalmoscope. But many healthcare professionals struggle to use it effectively, for several reasons.
First, the direct ophthalmoscope is used in very close quarters, with the patient’s eye on one side and the healthcare professional’s eye on the other side. This is an issue during the COVID-19 pandemic, as communities must effectively practice social distancing.
Another issue involves mydriatic drops. To use the direct ophthalmoscope as effectively as possible, the healthcare professional must dilate the patient’s eyes. Many patients dislike this procedure and avoid it, which increases the probability of an incomplete or incorrect eye screening and diagnosis.
Given these challenges, it’s not surprising that recent studies have demonstrated that up to 40% of patients screened with a direct ophthalmoscope are misdiagnosed, even when screened under ideal conditions by trained ophthalmologists.
The Benefits of an Effective Eye Screening
While most people probably think of eye health in terms of improving vision with glasses or contacts, a thorough eye screening can have a more significant impact than simply generating a prescription for corrective lenses. Effective eye screenings can detect serious diseases, such as glaucoma, diabetic retinopathy, giant cell arteritis, and vascular issues.
While eye care professionals typically do these screenings, many patients with adequate vision don’t get regular eye exams due to the extra costs of both time and money. However, if PCPs could perform eye screenings as a part of routine wellness checks, patient outcomes could drastically improve.
Changing for the Better
In past decades, alternative retinal imaging devices were often too expensive and inconvenient for widespread use at the primary care level. Large, bulky, and mounted or fixed in place, these retinal cameras also required considerable training on the part of the practitioner.
Today, fundus cameras like the Optomed Aurora are a more attractive option. Not only are they highly accurate, but they’re also handheld and portable, making it possible for PCPs to set up flexible screening areas or go directly to patients.
These cameras are also affordable and easy to use, with no expensive installation or training necessary. Non-eye-care professionals can easily operate them, so doctors, nurses, and other personnel can perform a screening. Once the retinal images have been taken, they can be input wirelessly into existing EHR systems. The Optomed Aurora can also be integrated with AI technology software.
Finally, the Optomed Aurora produces high-resolution digital images with a 50-degree field-of-view, all without needing to dilate the eyes. This makes the Aurora a great choice for screening patients who are uncomfortable with mydriatic drops. Also, its convenient handheld design makes it easier to maintain social distance between the patient and the practitioner.
Is the Optomed Aurora Right for Your Practice?
To best serve their patients’ needs, PCPs are increasingly aware of the importance of thorough screenings, including those of the eyes. While the direct ophthalmoscope is a widely used and helpful tool, technologies like the Optomed Aurora fundal camera are changing how patients and practitioners can care for the eyes and overall health.
Here at Optomed, our mission is to help save the vision of millions of people. By integrating our software and artificial intelligence solutions with our camera, we enable eye screening for everyone, wherever they are. To see how we can equip you to save the sight of more patients, schedule a free consultation today!

“Only at the Manas National Park, you can see a parade of elephants as big!” Exclaimed Debjani, my co passenger on the safari jeep as we looked at the horizon and found the foothill of Himalaya queued with a large herd of gentle giants. More than 100 Asian elephants were seen through a green haze of rain kissed tall grass and meadows, distinct to the jungle of Terai. I have seen them at the Chitwan National park. I learnt February is the best time to visit Kaziranga when this elephant grasses are put to fire, to bring out the flat surface of forest land, and control patrolling. We visited there after spending a week in Shillong.
We spent a little more than half a day at Manas National Park on the safari jeep. While animal sighting at the Manas is not as frequent as Pobitora or Kaziranga, the jungle is a UNESCO heritage site and inexplicably stunning in beauty. With Cotton Trees flanking the motor road, we ventured into the deep heart of Manas National Park. An elephant, grazing on the grass, greeted us on the way.
Our eyes met and I thought I would call her Amodini. Amodini, the Asian elephant, was close to her family. A matriarch and a baby. Soon after, she distanced herself from the group and started to dance. Neither Bhartanatyam, not Bihu, Amodini grooved to the ancient beats of pitter-patter raindrops.
In between, your truly had the privilege of shooting an Asian elephant dancing in the rain, in the jungles of Himalayan foothills, at the Manas National Park, Assam. An unprecedented site that I rediscovered while traveling at Amboseli National Park, Kenya!

Online roulette is played just like roulette in a mobile phone-based mobile phone but with a slight change. The ability to play when and where and without the need for a real dealer comes up so here’s how you can start:
First, you need to choose the number (s) you wish to bet on and place your chips in the appropriate section of the table.
Once the wheel has started to spin, and the ball has entered the wheel, you can no longer change your decision (“nothing is right”) and must wait for the result (where did the ball land)
Once the ball reaches its final pocket and the wheel stops spinning, all bets are paid. It’s that simple.
But before explaining the bets and payouts for online roulette, it is very important that you understand how the roulette wheel works and what the different numbers and sections mean.
Understanding The Sequences Of Roulette Numbers
Since we have many different versions of online roulette, the wheel now has a bunch of different layouts. The structure is designed to exclude any logic behind the numbers on the wheel. However, to play roulette online, it is good to have a rough understanding of these provisions and how they were created. Let’s see.
Single Zero Wheels
The single zero wheels are probably the most balanced of all. It has 37 pockets with the numbers 1 to 36 and the unique zero. Besides the green zero, you will see red and black numbers alternating all around the wheel.
You will also see high and low numbers alternating, with the notable exception of the numbers 5 and 10. The last thing that is distributed across the wheel is the odd and even number. You will never see more than two even or odd numbers next to each other.
Double Zero Wheels
Although the double zero wheels also alternate between red and black digits, it differs much less. For example, you will notice many occurrences of high or low numbers.
Triple Zero Wheels
In contrast, the little-used triple zero wheel uses almost the same layout as the well-balanced European version. But that adds a double and a triple zero to the rest of the numbers.
Understand What The Different Sections Of Roulette Mean
The roulette wheels are divided into three different sections, as you can see in the graphic below. Thanks to the French origins of the game, these sections also bear French names.
Neighbors Of Zero
You want to play section bets; you would have a 9 chip bet on your hands, none of which is a direct bet. Most bets are splits of two numbers, and you only need nine of them to cover all the numbers in this section.
Third Of The Cylinder
In order to cover all the numbers in the second section, the Thirds of the Cylinder, you must invest six tokens. Again, all are split bets, and they cover 12 numbers on the wheel.
The last section is divided in two and received the name of Orphans. It only covers 8 numbers, and you will need 5 tokens to cover them all.
Just remember that all of these section bets are exclusive to the European version of the online roulette wheel.

Tips on Investing Children’s Education: Key for Future Success
Education Savings Plan
Many countries offer education savings programs that help us save money for our children’s education. These programs often come with tax incentives or government contributions. We can gather information about available education savings plans in our country.
Education funds are specialized investments for educational purposes. The funds are managed by investment experts. With education funds, we can expect substantial returns in the long run.
There are insurance products that can help protect our children’s education. These products combine life protection with investment. For example, in the event of unexpected circumstances such as disability or death, education insurance can help cover our children’s education expenses. This means that if parents experience unforeseen events, education insurance provides financial protection to ensure the continuity of their children’s education.
Financial Planning and Budgeting
Financial Planning and Budgeting: In addition to investments, it is important to have proper financial planning and disciplined money management. With sound financial planning, we can allocate a portion of our income for regular savings towards our children’s education.
Stock or Bond Investments
If we know about stocks or bonds, we can consider investing in companies involved in the education sector. However, it is important to note that stock and bond investments come with risks, so conducting research and consulting with financial experts before making decisions is crucial.
Ensure thorough research and consultation with financial experts before making any investment decisions. Each individual has different needs and goals, so it is important to tailor investment strategies to our financial situation and our children’s educational goals.
As parents or educators, we can consider these approaches to help our children receive the best education possible.
